Chapter 33 The City of Life

Sitting on the cold stone chair, Yi Ming gently stroked Meali's long golden hair, grabbed it and played with it unconsciously. At this moment, Meali, with a pale face and lying there almost deadly. Her originally soft and warm skin also lost its temperature, and her eyes were closed, she seemed to have no sense.

"hurry up."

Yi Ming stared at the rune magic array with some nervousness that was slightly flashing on the back of her left hand.

“……………… Come back soon.”

As if echoing Yi Ming's call, the rune magic circle on the back of Meili's hand became extremely bright in an instant, and then a light of star dust-like light burst out, completely covering Meili's body. At this moment, her body began to slowly recover from temperature, her face became rosy and smooth again, and her chest was slightly undulating. Yi Ming then let go of Meili's long hair and leaned back relaxedly. Meili slowly opened her eyes and then looked at Yi Ming.

(You shouldn't touch a lady's hair casually.)

She frowned and protested, but a hint of smug smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Okay, I apologize."

Yi Ming made an apology gesture without any sincerity.

(…………………We, have we succeeded?)

“At least there was no failure.”

Yi Ming stood up and stretched. The sunlight flowed in between the broken walls and ruins, leaning on the stone slab-piece ground, bringing a hazy light. Everything seemed so peaceful and peaceful.

Lita opened her eyes.

"Woo…what happened?"

What she remembered was that Mealee's lightning-like lightning instantly seized everything in an instant, and then she knew nothing. But when she opened her eyes now, she found that she was not lying on the cold earth, but...what is this place?! Lita raised her head in surprise, and everything that reflected her face surprised her. The emerald green vines representing life climbed and wrapped around the walls, and long weeds could be clearly seen in the gaps between the stone slabs - how could there be grass on this land that should have been named for death?

Lita hurriedly stood up, and then she realized that she was in a large ruin, which looked like the inside of the castle, but... why was the light outside so dazzling?! It shouldn't be dim, there were dark clouds and a dead forest of the dead everywhere? She walked to the window in surprise and looked out carefully. When her eyes adapted to the light outside, everything in front of her even made Lita mistakenly think that she had entered the legendary god realm.

Green tender grass covers the entire earth, towering trees in the distance exude vitality and vitality, and the river is mixed with the cool and beautiful sound of water flowing by. All this is too unrealistic, and Lita doesn't even know what to say.

"This! Where is this?!"

Marien's voice came from behind, and it seemed that she was inexplicably surprised by all this in front of her, just like Lita.

"Yo, are you awake?"

Yi Ming came over, greeted the two casually, and then threw two apples over.

"This thing should be fine. Eat it, at least we don't have to worry about the food crisis now."

After taking the apple and smelling the sweet and delicious smell on it, the two of them immediately felt that their originally hungry stomach was complaining unyieldingly. So they began to eat big sips, and the sweet and sour flesh entered their mouths, making them almost feel as delicious as royal nectar. They didn't even care about basic etiquette, and just ate the apples in big mouth until each person stuffed three or four apples into their stomachs, and finally took a breath.

"Brother Yiming, what's going on..."

After filling his stomach, Lita immediately asked. In response, Yi Ming scratched his head helplessly and shrugged his shoulders.

"I don't know this......I don't know either. I heard from Meyali that you are fighting that necromancer? After Meyali killed him, this place suddenly became like this. As for what happened, we don't know."

“………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Marien frowned, thought for a moment, and then was shocked.

"Has that necromancer learned how to store the life energy of the earth? Could it be that he..."

Whatever you guess.

Yi Ming leaned against the wall half-hilariously, watching Marien muttering to himself. In their own world, it is impossible to get through this level of obscurity. But this is different. This is the magic world. Isn’t the so-called magic just to make a reason for those unreasonable phenomena? They can guess it anyway... Anyway... Even if they are themselves, they can’t figure out what is going on.

"Luckily, that necromancer is dead."

Of course, the dead will not come out to prove it.

Yi Ming was naturally not stupid enough to let the next sentence slip out of his stomach.

"Now, in my opinion, the land has been restored to life and we have made sure there is food to eat. So, let's take a break here for a while and then think about what's going on."

"Brother Yiming? Where is Sister Meialie?"

"Myalie's bathing there..."

Before Yiming finished speaking, Marien immediately jumped up and then ran towards the direction Yiming pointed out. Lita smiled awkwardly, saluted Yiming and quickly followed.

It’s really strange for women. Will the world be the end of the world without taking a bath for two days?

Forget it, I am the one who is completely happy to see.

It is obvious that the two people have just come alive and have not realized the problem at all. This made Yi Ming very relieved. After all, if you think about it carefully, there are too many unreasonable things in it. And now even if you think about it, it is definitely a genius magician who will use his knowledge to make reasonable explanations. After all, although the civilization system is different, it is a common problem for humans to explain it with known knowledge when encountering unknown things.

Hopefully there will be no problem.

Yi Ming frowned. He knew that Meyari used the Thor mode of "Dungeon of the Gods", and he also did those... I hope that these can be vague under the excuse of their magic weapon characteristics. Of course, the best case is to kill people to silence them. But now it is obvious that this is no longer possible. The reason why they drove Marien away was because the two of them also hoped that the fewer people would know their secrets, the better. But in the current state, since they had to accept her help, there was no way to attack her. What's more, without the problem of food, Lita would definitely insist on her suggestion of leaving with her and others. On this point, Yi Ming and Meyari could not come up with any feasible separation method.

Almost, it's time for Mealie to impose a hint on her.

"Well, just do it."

Yi Ming nodded to himself, as if answering a question from someone who couldn't see it.

In the end, everyone planned to temporarily live in this abandoned castle and decide what to do next until tomorrow. Lita ran to the woods outside and picked a lot of fruits. Obviously, the hunger of the two days ago was deeply imprinted in her memory - in that case, even roasted mice could swallow them, not to mention these originally delicious fruits.

"This place is as I expected, a necromancer turned it into his residence."

Marian walked to the fire with a book he had brought from somewhere. The climate was no longer as cold and humid as the nights two days ago, but as warm as spring. Looking up, you could even see the stars in the sky.

Lita looked at her nervously and expectantly, while Yi Ming leaned against the wall without saying anything. Mei Yali gently turned the umbrella in her hand, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Based on these letters written in demonic language, I can be sure that this necromancer is receiving instructions from the Lord of the Souls. As for what it is, I don't know. The only thing that can be understood is that..." Perhaps because I found that no one was listening, even the speaker became less interested. "In short, we defeated an evil mage, which is something worth celebrating, isn't it?"

"Maybe that's the case."

Yi Ming leaned against the wall and replied.

"It has nothing to do with us either."

"But, but Brother Yiming, we have defeated a necromancer!"

Lita seemed quite excited. Although to be honest, the power she exerted was only to cooperate with Marien when exerting the Wind Barrier. However, this was a very great achievement for a novice magic envoy.

(You are right, Lita. You are indeed worthy of being proud of, this is a very amazing thing.)

Mealie gently stroked Lita's hair and said softly. Lita smiled happily, approaching Mealie's arms with satisfaction and fatigue.

"I'm tired, too."

Marien smiled slightly, but she regained her cold and arrogant attitude before being discovered. In fact, she was surprised by the strength shown by Yiming and Mealli, and was even shocked. Although in this world, there are many warriors of different races, or some mixed-race children, who have all kinds of unique talents that surpass ordinary people, are not a secret. Marien once saw talented warriors who can control flames, or break the earth, increase their combat power, or increase their speed. However, at that time she did not take those people seriously, because no matter what, talent itself is limited, and the power of magic is infinite. From finite to infinite, it is naturally impossible to have any suspense. Of course, for magicians, if they can obtain talented warriors, they are naturally better than ordinary warriors. After all, talent is equivalent to a kind of magic, and if used properly, it can improve combat power well.

But to be honest, even Marien couldn't tell what their talent and ability were.

Their abilities seem to be quite different from those of ordinary warriors who are born with magical abilities.

And their magic weapons seem to be somewhat different from what is commonly circulated on the mainland...

"It should be safe here, so I'm going to have another room to rest."

Thinking of this, Marian shook her head, then she turned and left the open-air hall.

Mealie gently put down Lita who was already asleep, put her clothes on her body, then walked to Yi Ming who was leaning against the wall, looking at the starry sky, and sat down on his shoulder.

(Why did you say that just now?)

"Isn't that right?"

Yi Ming's answer was mixed with a wry smile.

"Even if you defeat it, what can we do? We all know that if we have the will, the enemies are endless. There are everywhere. When you knock down one, the other will appear again. Unless you climb to the top of everything, what can be ended? No, there is no result. Why are we forced to that level? Isn't it because we knocked down one enemy after another, but welcoming more enemies?"

(…………………)

"To be honest, even if this necromancer planned a plot that was about to destroy the world, I was not interested in stopping it. Even if I am an ignorant little person who will destroy the world in the moment of destruction, I am satisfied. At least there are people from all over the world who will be buried with me, right? What's the point of becoming a hero? If you defeat the plan of a demon king, another demon king will appear. Think of you as boring, the representative of justice and the guardian of mankind. If you want to kill it first and then hurry up, I don't think a hero can really live the happy life he dreams of. This kind of thing that only happens in fairy tales will not appear in reality. If you want to live a peaceful life, don't cause trouble for yourself, otherwise it will never end."

Yi Ming's voice was a little low, and Meyali couldn't help but lean against him again, perhaps because it was too cold.

(I understand what you mean, Yi Ming. You are tired, I am tired too... Maybe you are right.)

Mayalie gently touched her golden eyes.

(We should not get involved in any disputes.)
