The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Chapter 51: Ancient Legend

"A treasure that can grant wishes, does such a thing really exist?"

After learning the cause of the incident from Lilith, Li grabbed the magic book as soon as he came back.

"Maybe, possibly, maybe it exists."

The magic book has lived for so many years, longer than the kingdom, so it naturally knows some secrets passed down from ancient times.

"Stop using so many adverbs, and give us some substance!"

"You want some solid stuff, right? I want some solid stuff too!"

Magic Book threw the pet biscuits in his hand and made a direct request to Li.

Li’s cooking is delicious. With the delicious dishes made by him, Magic Book would be too lazy to even eat the cookies.

"Okay, once you tell me the secret, I'll take you to conquer the cafeteria of the Knight Academy!"

"It's a deal! Don't regret it!"

The magic book's pages were all rolled up with joy, revealing a blank page, and using magic to construct words and pictures on it.

"This is a very old legend, a time when elves, dragons, and demons coexisted on earth. Among these high-level magical creatures, weak races struggled to survive until a new species appeared. They did not have strong bodies, nor did they have an affinity for magic, but they were united and had one heart..."

Li was flipping through the picture book, marveling at it.

The magic books are getting better and better, and the comic strips can also be made lively and interesting.

"Humans united with the dwarves, learned metal forging techniques, and dedicated their faith to the Goddess of Light to gain the love and care of the goddess."

"Oh? So, humans sold their faith to the goddess in exchange for the power of holy light."

"You're right to say that."

"I always feel like this goddess of light doesn't look like a good person."

The magic book said nothing, for he was afraid that he would be punished by God if he agreed with Li.

The story continues…

"Unite with more races, kill powerful enemies, and humans will drive other powerful races out of the continent, win rich land, and build a kingdom here!"

"Where's the treasure?"

"…After the kingdom was established, it was naturally full of crises at first. The demons always looked down on weak humans, the dragons were also resentful of their former slaves, the dwarves also had conflicts with humans, and the elves even regarded the development of humans as the enemy of nature."

The treasure is a backup plan to deal with counterattacks from multiple ethnic groups.

"Humanity has gathered the power of the entire kingdom to prepare a treasure, including a large amount of gold coins, forbidden magic items, super rare materials, and even the blessing of the true God."

The story ends here. The magic book jumps out of Li's hand, waiting for Li to feed it.

"You mean, there's something in the treasure that can make wishes come true?"

"I don't know. If there are phantom seeds in the treasure, the head of the Glazed Dragon can indeed make wishes come true."

The magic book uttered a very fantastic term, which made Li inexplicably excited.

"If I get this thing, I can conquer the world and become the king of the world!"

"…Dreams contain everything, my little master."

"Didn't you just say that the Glazed Dragon can fulfill wishes..."

"Glass dragons can indeed do this. Their brains can create a real dream, allowing creatures to live in the dream. However, this dream is separated from reality by a bubble, and the two do not affect each other."

Create a fake world, and then live a fake life in it.

Liulilong must be a socially anxious otaku!

No!

The dream bubble is equivalent to another world, so is Li, the time traveler, just dreaming?

What he is experiencing now is reality or fantasy!

Li's brain was overheated and the computer almost crashed.

It’s such a complicated matter. The more I think about it, the more scared I become.

"That's it for now, let's eat first."

"Great!"

The magic book circled around Li like a happy dog.

Li put on his shoes and coat and prepared to go to the Knight Academy to take a look first.

In order to travel more conveniently, Li spent money to buy a magic bicycle.

One low-level magic stone can allow you to run for several days.

If such a means of transportation were thrown onto Earth, it would absolutely devastate all kinds of automobile and new energy industries!

"Come to think of it, you haven't told me what the treasure has to do with the black rose?"

After riding the bicycle, Li's head was blown by the wind and he remembered the key to the problem.

The same was true for the magic book. He had forgotten that there were important things he hadn't told Li.

"When the human kingdom was first established, it was formed by a group of heroes. The Black Rose was the magic weapon of one of the heroes."

There are gods in this world, and divine weapons are said to be weapons bestowed by gods to mortals.

It will not rust over time and will change accordingly depending on the user.

Such a divine weapon has a higher status than the king.

"You mean, these artifacts are the keys to unlock the secret treasure?"

Magic Book gave a thumbs up.

"No wonder someone wants to steal the Black Rose... Then what about the other artifacts? They must have been targeted by someone too!"

Magic Book gave another thumbs up.

Seeing that things were really as he had guessed, Li felt a sense of worry in his heart.

Because according to Li's reasoning, the magic book on his waist, the Book of the Dead, should also be a magical artifact.

Could it be that someone has already targeted his partner?

"Li, you don't have to worry. Compared to other artifacts without intelligence, I am still able to protect myself, and few people know that I am with you."

The magic book comforted Li for a while, but it did not make Li feel at ease.

"According to what you said, after so many years, no one should know about the secret treasure anymore. Why is there a sudden incident of snatching the artifact now?"

Li's questioning caused the magic book to fall silent.

After a long time, the magic book spoke again.

"…You are right. Those who originally created the secret treasure were directly sealed in the treasury. Except for the fifty-two heroes of the kingdom, no one else will know the secret of the secret treasure."

Now, someone suddenly appears to snatch the artifact, they must be the descendants of those heroes!

"What did you say!"

Li did not agree with the magic book's inference at all, because there were too many people who knew the secret at that time!

Fifty-two!

These are not just five people. If there is anyone with a big mouth who tells the secret to others after getting drunk, the matter of the secret treasure will never be kept secret!

Li Ke came from Earth, and he knew very well how treacherous human hearts are.

On Earth, even if a secret is known by only two people, there is no guarantee that it will not be spread.

It is common to have eight groups in one dormitory.

"That's not right. Those heroes swore an oath to the goddess. They wouldn't say such nonsense..."

No matter how familiar the magic book is with Li, he is just a magic book after all, and there will still be some differences in their concepts.

"Human beings, are they so complicated..."

Magic Book thought he understood humans very well, but what Li said taught him a lesson.

Amid the muttering of the magic book, Li drove his bicycle and stopped at the gate of the Knight Academy.

Looking at the tall tower at the entrance of the Knight Academy, Li's eyes were firm.

Knight Academy, here I come!
