Soon, at the city gate where no living beings were coming in or out, a group of figures slowly walked out.
The leader is a male human with an intact face, wearing dark brown clothes and a wide top hat. Just looking at his dress, one would never expect the connection between him and the necromancer.
Following him were a group of medium-level skeleton creatures, mainly reinforced skeleton warriors, mixed with other types of skeleton creatures. With their strength, they could not threaten the powerful necromancer, let alone the powerful necromancer. A true lich.
Soon, this specially dressed necromancer brought the other undead creatures to North and his party.
After standing still, the necromancer immediately bowed to Asri and North and saluted to show his respect for the lich, and then said:
"Dear Lord Lich, the City of Shadow, the capital of Diya, welcomes you. I am diplomat Manu. On behalf of all the creatures in Diya, I would like to pay high respect to the immortal lich."
Faced with the reception of the diplomat named Manu, North had not yet said anything. Asri just said calmly:
"Your king may, but you cannot represent all the creatures of Diya."
As if he was determined to reveal North's identity, Asri asked the diplomat in front of him a question in order to prevent the news from being suppressed.
Feeling the questioning meaning in the Lich's words, Manu, who was accustomed to using the power of King Diya to bully envoys from other regions, did not dare to have any attack at this time. He knew that what he was facing was the entire Diya. , a lich that is above everything and even the king cannot control.
Compared with this, Numan is more concerned about how to answer the Lich's question. Once his answer does not satisfy the Lich, it may cause something that no living thing wants to see.
"His Majesty the King is not in the city and cannot come to greet the Immortal Lich in person. I believe he will feel extremely sorry in his heart. I also ask the Lich to follow me into the palace first."
Manu's words caught Asri's attention, and Asri then asked: "Where are the Kesri people?"
"His Majesty the King is personally leading the army to destroy a group of elite elf rangers sent by Eli. He will return to the city soon. Please wait here for a moment, Lord Lich."
From Manu's words, after understanding Kesri's movements at this time, Asri no longer insisted, and then followed the diplomat into the city.
As the royal capital of Dia, the area of the City of Shadows is naturally not comparable to that of Saou City, where North once lived. Under Manu's guidance, North traveled for a long time, but still failed to arrive. Where the royal palace is located.
As they moved forward, the group of Corpse Witch Kings following North naturally attracted the attention of other necromancers. These undead creatures surpassed most of the necromancers in terms of rank alone, thus attracting their attention. of attention.
However, when these necromancers noticed Manu and the figure suspected of being a lich in front of them, they did not dare to continue observing for fear of being affected.
After marching for a while, under the leadership of Manu, North and his party finally arrived at the palace of Diya.
The dark palace in front of him was more imposing than all the buildings North had seen in Brakada. This was a building exclusively for the Necromancer. The huge death energy emanating from all around deeply infected North.
In contrast, Asri was much calmer and unaffected in any way, as if everything in front of her was not worthy of her attention at all.
Arriving inside the palace, since the king was not in the city at this time, Asri and North asked for a quiet room and waited here.
Every creature in the city understands the meaning of the arrival of the lich. With the consent of many lichs, Kesri, who became the king of Dia, naturally understands this better.
For this reason, Asri is not in a hurry, but is just waiting here with peace of mind. He believes that it won't be long before the battle is over, and Kesri will lead his undead army back.
For lichs, waiting in a quiet room like this is what they are best at. Compared with patience, no creature can surpass lichs. However, at this time, Asri did not wait quietly, but Ask North.
"Besides fighting, is there anything else you're good at?"
While waiting, perhaps to learn more about North, Asri asked.
"Why do you ask?"
Not knowing how to answer, North could only ask this.
The previous experience in the lich gathering, plus the understanding along the way, made North no longer afraid of the lich in front of him, but could respond to her questions relatively calmly.
"I just think that if you were selected by the master of the artifact, you must have some talent. Maybe you have some special ability that even I don't know about."
Having already checked North's basic attributes through his clairvoyant eyes, Asri realized that North was just an ordinary necromancer in terms of combat, and did not even meet the standards of a formal necromancer.
In this case, Asri asked her this question, just as she said, she wanted to see what kind of special abilities North had.
However, in the face of Asri's inquiry, North's expression suddenly dropped, as if he was suddenly discouraged, and replied:
"To be honest, I don't know why I was chosen by Mr. Rhodes, and finally reached this point, becoming the nominal master of the artifact. I don't have any special abilities, and there is nothing worthy of praise. The only thing I can do is a decent starting point. What it does is refining potions, which is what I do most often in Lord Rhodes’ territory.”
From North's words, Asri seemed to have discovered something, and asked: "You mean, originally you were just a necromancer responsible for refining potions, and you didn't have any extraordinary abilities?"
"Yes."
"Then why were you brought to the Lich Gathering by Rhodes?"
"I took the initiative to ask him. I want to become a real necromancer. I hope the immortal lich can solve the doubts in my heart."
Recalling several questions that North had asked outside the city, Asri also understood what he meant.
Looking at North in front of her, Asri didn't know what to think. The necromancer assigned by Rhodes was completely beyond her expectations.
"interesting……"
In this regard, Asri can only make this evaluation.
"I have seen too many necromancers who are keen on creating undead creatures and long for power. In countless years, you are the first necromancer that I find interesting. In this case, I will give you a chance."
