Chapter 107: The Necromancer’s Specialty Food

Under the shade of the tree, Yeats looked at Rishi, who was unconscious with his hands tied behind his back, and fell into deep thought.

Seeing this, Gray asked curiously, "Do you know him?"

Yeats shook his head.

I can’t say I know him, I’m just familiar with the past of this game character.

Yeats speculated that given the unlucky Rich's physique, he must have accidentally entered the battle and was then knocked unconscious by Hilde, who mistook him for an assassin.

At this time, the black-haired man wearing a monocle woke up slowly, looked around at Ye Zhi and others with a confused look, and then seemed to come back to his senses and smiled bitterly:

"My Lord Baron, I have no intention of offending you. I just happened to pass by here and accidentally broke into your fight with the monster. I have no intention of harming you. I hope you can understand this."

"Just passing by?" Gray snorted coldly, "You don't want to take the main road, but insist on taking the small path of Whitefish Port. I think you have bad intentions!"

The bitter taste on the black-haired man's face became stronger, and he sighed and said:

"I was actually commissioned by the Mage Guild to come to Whitefish Harbor to investigate these monsters. I never expected that I would cause misunderstandings among you all."

Ye Zhi smiled. It was interesting to bring up the name of the Mages Guild. If it were any other noble, they might have been intimidated and let Lixi go.

But Ye Zhi knew very well that Richie had been expelled from the Mages Guild for studying necromancy, and he gave this reason just to take the opportunity to get away.

Clang! Hildreth placed his swift sword on Lixi's neck and said coldly:

"You are clearly a necromancer, how could you have anything to do with the Mage Guild? If you dare to lie again, go and explain to the Goddess of Death."

There are seven major schools in the Mages Guild: Protection, Spells, Prophecy, Enchantment, Elements, Illusion, and Transmutation.

These seven major schools correspond to one seat in the Seven Councils of the Mages Guild, and the Seven Councils symbolize the pinnacle of the school.

The identity of the necromancer was exposed, but Li Xi remained calm and said:

"You should also know that necromancers who believe in the goddess of death have always been unacceptable to the Mage Guild. But even so, there are many places in magic research that require the use of necromancy. For this reason, a great mage often needs an apprentice to act as his white gloves."

"My mentor needed to use the shark man's corpse for research, so he sent me to do it privately." Li Xi said humbly, "If you are willing to let me go, the noble Baron of Morning Frost Ridge, I will definitely let my mentor write a letter to express his gratitude to you!"

Gray looked at Ye Zhi hesitantly and said:

"Ye Zhi, his teacher seems to be very powerful, why not let him go..."

It's a rare opportunity to have an SR card delivered to your door, how can you refuse it? Ye Zhi replied:

"Fool, you don't even know you've been fooled."

"Ah?" Gray was stunned.

"Don't beat around the bush with me, Richie." Ye Zhi relied on his foresight and went straight to the point. "You work for Duke Hudson and come to Whitefish Port. What kind of information do you want to gather?"

Suddenly.

Li Xi's pupils flickered, and huge waves rose in his heart.

How could Baron Morningfrost Ridge know my identity? Could it be that he was far away from the border of the kingdom, and his intelligence network had already infiltrated the territory of Duke Hudson? Other than that, there was no explanation for why he could reveal my identity in one sentence! Li Xi was silent for a long time, racking his brains to think of a reply, and his heart was full of fear.

Intelligence is also a form of warfare.

Baron Dawnfrost Ridge was able to spy on Hudson's intelligence to such an extent that even my identity was exposed. No wonder he was able to lead Dawnfrost Ridge to survive the beast tide!

Such a person, such means.

Although he was facing a boy of about fifteen years old, Richie felt more pressured than when facing Hudson.

Rishi cursed inwardly, what bad luck.

The lie he just told must have made him unhappy, and the possibility of getting away was even less! Now that things have come to this, the only thing he can do is to be honest with each other.

Lisi sighed and said, "To be honest, Baron, I am no longer a courtier of Duke Hudson and have decided to return to Oslo in the Kingdom of Northshire. I took the path of Whitefish Harbor because I was afraid of causing trouble."

"Why didn't you say that just now?" Ye Zhi said.

"Your family has always been at odds with the Hudson family. I didn't tell you just now because I was worried that the old relationship between me and Duke Hudson would make you resent me." Li Xi said calmly, "But since you know my identity, you must also know that I no longer work for him. It's not too late to tell you now."

Yeats nodded slowly.

It fits my impression of this lousy necromancer; he's a guy who changes his attitude according to the situation.

"Now I understand—"

Gray suddenly shouted and glared at Rishi fiercely:

"You necromancer, you just lied, didn't you!"

Richie: “…”

"Ha, you still want to trick me." Gray crossed her arms and said, "I'm very smart."

At this time.

A ghostly laughter like a silver bell floated in the air.

It quickly disappeared.

Gray's face changed and she hid behind Ye Zhi: "There's a ghost!"

Ye Zhi turned his head and glanced at Gray: "Hey, you are the guard."

Gray: "Guards are afraid of ghosts too!"

Hildreth thought for a moment and stared at the necromancer: "Your familiar?"

For the first time, Li Xi's eyes showed some emotion, and he pretended to be confused and asked, "What did you say?"

Yeats rubbed his chin.

The one who was laughing just now should be the ghost lover of the necromancer Lixi.

In the later part of the plot, Richie grew up to the Sanctuary and successfully resurrected his lover. Although he was a necromancer, his character was not evil, which was why Yeats was willing to take him under his command.

"It's okay, Hildreth, put the sword away."

Ye Zhi said, "Gray, untie him."

Gray untied the knot reluctantly.

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

Li Xi flexed his hands, looked at Ye Zhi gratefully, and said, "Thank you, Baron. If you are willing to let me go today, I will definitely repay you with a huge sum of money in the future!"

"I value your talent more than a fortune," Ye Zhi said.

"Since you won't serve Hudson, why don't you consider serving as my courtier?"

After these words were spoken, Gray and Hildreth turned to look at Ye Zhi.

Gray lowered her head and thought, although he is a necromancer, he is still a three-ring transcendent after all. Ye Zhi may be doing this for the sake of the territory.

Hildurde frowned slightly but said nothing.

Li Xi was stunned, a warm feeling rose in his heart, and then he shook his head and said:

"Thank you, Lord Baron, for your kindness, but I... have something I must accomplish."

Ye Zhi said, "I don't intend to force you. Why don't you have a meal with us before leaving?"

"Eat?" Li Xi was a little surprised. "Now?"

Ye Zhi pointed to the giant vampire eel on the beach and said with a smile, "Isn't that a ready-made ingredient?"

Li Xi was stunned for a moment, and said, "My Lord Baron, only a highly capable gourmet chef can cook vampire eels into delicious food. Eating them rashly may cause serious illness."

Ye Zhi asked in return: "How do you know that I am not a great food chef?"

Li Xi was startled, and remembered the morning frost cheese that had appeared at the Hudson banquet, and said in surprise:

"Could it be that...Morning Frost Cheese was invented by you, sir?"

Yeats: “Any questions?”

Rishi was a little surprised.

"In fact, I do have a mentor who also loves cheese," said Lisi. "He once created his own cheese made from live maggots, and he loved the unique flavor. He admired the morning frost cheese you invented very much, and thought you were also a gourmet with taste!"

Gray's face turned pale. "Maggot cheese? What the hell is that? It sounds scary!"

Yeats explained: "It is to let the cheese fly larvae crawl on the goat's milk cheese, causing the cheese to rot. When the worms are touched, they will jump more than ten centimeters out of the cheese. The higher they jump, the more delicious the cheese with live maggots is - right?"

Li Xi's eyes lit up: "Yes, this is the special delicacy of the necromancer. The Baron is indeed well-informed!"

Hild said calmly: "Okay, no need to say more."

The snow leopard licked its paw: "Woo!"

I'm curious about what it tastes like!

"Don't be curious!" Gray warned, "Curiosity killed the snow leopard!"

Yeats thought to himself... the cheese that was also called 'maggot cheese' in the previous life was the famous dark delicacy in the previous life, Casu Marzu cheese.

This is even more exotic than blue cheese. In this world, it is a pure undead delicacy, the kind that can take you to the underworld if you eat it!

Ye Zhi asked the snow leopard to bring the vampire eel over here, and soon, the strange creature with a disc-shaped, sharp mouthpart was placed in front of everyone.

Staring at the vampire eel from a close distance, Gray shuddered and muttered:

"Is there really a king who would eat such a horrible monster?"

Hild said, "It is rumored that King Fred loves to eat vampire eel pie. This custom has been passed down. At the coronation ceremony of the King of the Golden Lion, there will be a vampire eel pie. It will be cooked by a professional gourmet and presented to the king."

Gray sighed: "I finally understand why everyone says that there is no more delicious food in Golden Lion!"

Ye Zhi said: "Even the Stargazing Pie can be considered a Golden Lion delicacy, so you can imagine the other foods..."

Seeing that the danger was resolved, Li Xi gradually calmed down and said calmly: "Stargazing pie is delicious. My teacher and I often share this dish. The key meaning is quite good, hehe."

Ye Zhi patted Richie on the shoulder meaningfully.

You really have never eaten good food! (End of this chapter)
