Not long after the vampires who had been driven from the city lord's mansion left, Bai Xi had already returned to the Necromancer's City with Rilisa.
She stroked her chin and said to Rilisa thoughtfully.
"If nothing unexpected happens, I'm probably wanted by the police, so I definitely can't just walk in like that."
Bai Xi was standing not far from the City of the Dead, but he did not approach or try to enter.
"Then your attempt to assassinate the Bone Lord... will likely be very difficult."
Although Rilisa also admired Maggie, it was indeed quite difficult for one person to contend with the power of an entire city.
"It's alright. Now that I've become an undead, there are naturally many more ways to get into the city."
Bai Xi waved her hand dismissively, but she didn't actually do anything. Only when she got closer did she realize that the skull directly above the city of the undead was now surveying the entire city.
That's right, it's an inspection.
Previously, this skull simply stood calmly above the royal city, occasionally spewing out green flames. But now, it has clearly changed its state.
The giant skull scanned back and forth in the air, seemingly trying to find someone.
"Hmm...maybe there aren't many options."
Bai Xi paused for a moment, realizing that her assassination plan might not go so smoothly.
Even if she were an idiot, she could guess who the skull was looking for.
There is a 99% chance that she is the culprit who stole the 'Despair Crystal' and let so many lives go.
"What?"
Rilisa was stunned, seemingly not expecting the Saintess, who had just appeared calm and collected, to suddenly say such a thing; it was completely unexpected.
"It's alright, it seems we need to think about this more carefully."
Even though Bai Xi has become a lifeless ghost, she still sighs in a convincing way when faced with something she can't help.
She was oversimplifying things.
Even if she enters the city like this, there is a 99% chance that she will be besieged.
The remaining one percent must be because the Bone Lord has gone mad.
"oh oh."
Rilisa stared blankly at Baixi, and could only nod as she listened to her.
Just as the two were preparing to retreat, a somewhat terrifying and bloody chase occurred in the surrounding wilderness.
After all, this is a world of the dead, so seeing blood is a rare thing.
Rilisa's gaze was first drawn to it, then Baixi followed suit, and then...
Bai Xi instantly looked away, turned around, and prepared to leave in another direction.
"It looks like a vampire..."
Rilisa was still gossiping when, halfway through her conversation, Baixi used magic to pull her body away and make her walk in the completely opposite direction.
"Eh? Your Highness?"
Startled, she instinctively called out Bai Xi's identity.
In an instant, Bai Xi's whole body stiffened, and her foot speed doubled instantly, but the worst situation still happened.
Ulysses, who was hunting down traitors in the wilderness, was just casually toying with a few self-righteous fools when he heard a completely unexpected title.
Without the slightest hesitation, he dealt with several traitors who were of little use and whose very existence was a waste.
It turned around and flew quickly in the direction from which the sound came.
Then, he saw Bai Xi's slightly flustered figure trying to escape.
Her hair color was very familiar, jet black and glossy, and she had a slender figure.
Almost instantly, he realized he had found the little liar who broke his promise.
Rilisa was completely bewildered. She was already confused enough by being suddenly pulled away by the Holy Maiden, but then the main character who had been watching the show actually finished off her prey and came straight for them.
She instinctively felt that this powerful-looking vampire was there to capture her. She was one of the few living beings here, and also the vampire's food. She turned around, wanting to say something to Bai Xi.
"Your Highness, you..." Run away, don't worry about me.
However, before she could finish speaking, Ulysses brushed past her body and headed straight for Bai Xi.
Ririsa was left standing there dumbfounded for a long time before she slowly turned around and looked at Baixi, who had been captured by Ulysses.
A bunch of question marks popped up in her head, and in the end she could only come to one conclusion: this vampire and the saintess had a grudge.
In the instant she tried to escape, countless thoughts flashed through Bai Xi's mind. However, in practice, just a second before Ulysses caught her, she quickly turned around and showed Ulysses a strange and disgusted expression.
"vampire?"
She showed great disgust, looking like a ghost who didn't really like vampires.
After Bai Xi turned around, Ulysses' expression changed from excitement at catching his prey to disappointment at mistaking his target.
But after all, he was a noble and elegant progenitor of vampires who had lived for countless years. His expression only flashed by for a moment, and without showing any more emotion, he silently took two steps back and moved away from Bai Xi.
"Please forgive my offense, Miss Undead. Your back view is somewhat similar to an acquaintance of mine, which is why I mistook you for someone else."
He bowed slightly, like a gentleman, and offered an apologetic gesture to Bai Xi.
Like an ancient family with a profound heritage, the most noble young master is even polite to a dead person.
Just like now.
Bai Xi keenly caught the hint of uncertainty that flashed across Ulysses's face, but since he had distanced himself from her, it meant that he couldn't be sure that he was Maggie either.
That would make things much easier.
She and Maggie were completely different women, even their ages were different. Even this old monster racked his brains but couldn't be sure that she was Maggie.
"That's unfortunate, I'm not interested in your old friends."
She was like a powerful undead who was impervious to reason and hated vampires. Even when Ulysses put on a very polite attitude, she did not soften her stance but remained indifferent.
The main reason was that she couldn't reveal any flaws in order to maintain her persona.
Only in this way can we successfully drive away Ulysses.
However, this was only because she knew some aspects of Ulysses's personality that she dared to do something so offensive to him. Although he was the terrifying progenitor of vampires, he considered himself not the kind of low-level vampire who drank blood and ate raw meat, but the noblest being.
Therefore, he always behaves very politely.
Just like his outward appearance, he resembled a quintessential nobleman, and the most basic principle of a nobleman is to be reasonable, unlike the barbaric commoners.
When faced with someone who admits their mistake, he will almost always reason with them and might even apologize, just like he did just now.
As long as she shows a non-cooperative or displeased attitude, Ulysses will leave on his own.
