17. I am so ugly (White Night)

(white night)

The pollen of Narcissus is a kind of medicine for calming the nerves. However, if the pollen of Zhenling Flower is added to it, its effect will change dramatically. If a little magic is cast on the pollen, then a beautiful hypnotic psychological suggestion magic will be completed! Haha, it's very simple, right?

"My lovely Miss Lannong, can you please come to me soon?"

Now, the time is 3:48:53 in the morning.

I was quietly waiting for the little image-calling lady to come in my room. To keep it secret, I spent a little money to set up a one-way portal in an empty room on the second floor that could only accommodate one person. That way, even if someone saw Miss Lannon sleepwalking in the middle of the night, that person would not be able to track me through her.

And judging by the time, she will be there soon.

Click.

When the minute hand of the wall clock pointed to 3:50, the internal gears made a slight muffled sound, and at the same time, a delicate girl in plaid pajamas appeared at the door of my room. Her red eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of dust, dim and losing their usual luster. She slowly stood beside me and began to take off her clothes automatically.

When her body appeared in my eyes like a newborn lamb, her consciousness also woke up from her deep sleep. She opened her eyes with a confused look on her face and murmured in a low voice: "Miss Bai Ye? Am I dreaming..."

"Yes, you are just dreaming, a very long dream."

I gently touched her cheek and inserted a silver needle soaked in anesthetic into her neck. Before dismembering her and packing her up to take away, I still had to register some necessary living data. In fact, living experimental subjects are always more valuable for research than dead objects. If there is no other way, I don't want to resort to this desperate measure.

"If you want to blame someone, blame it on Ehard and the others for being overprotective..."

Gently carrying the precious research material to the cold laboratory table, I took out a bottle of medicinal alcohol and carefully disinfected my tools again. After the disinfection was completed, I picked up a small knife without hesitation and cut open her belly at the expected position. The knife avoided the arteries and veins, so the amount of bleeding was very small...

The next step is to remove the internal intestines to facilitate subsequent observation.

boom! boom!

However, just as my operation started, there was a loud knock on my door!

"Have you been discovered?"

"She's probably the only one who came to my house at this time, right?"

"By the way, why didn't I notice that she was doubting at the time? Was it because my soul was damaged and affected my judgment?"

My heart sank and I decisively stopped the live experiment. With a twist of the scalpel tip, I cleanly removed the entire right arm of the subject. At the same time, I also cast several undead spells on the arm to maintain its freshness.

Boom!

Even though there was a barrier at the door, defensive magic is not my strong point after all. In just a moment, the door was blasted open by the intruder's brute force. As a result, I could no longer concentrate on the experiment at hand.

"How did you get here?" I asked the intruder curiously.

From the beginning, I have carefully checked Miss Lannong from head to toe, but I didn't find any tracking magic or other means. Now someone suddenly kicked the door in, which did scare me a little.

The intruder swung her long-handled battle axe, sweeping away the dust created by the collapsed door. After clearly seeing the torn apart experimental subject on the bed, her body first shook, and then she became furious!

"If we knew from the beginning that you were the murderer, wouldn't it be easy to find this place? You evil necromancer, quickly hand over the people in the stone house to me! Otherwise, I will definitely make you bear the consequences you deserve!"

Seeing the girl with a broken arm on the operating table, Ehad's eyes were bloodshot. She held a battle axe and strode towards me who was holding the arm. However, despite her aggressiveness, she still forgot one thing.

"You want to deal with me in my wizard's hut? You're just dreaming!"

Now that the truth has been revealed, there is nothing more to say between Ehard and I. At this moment, laws, beliefs, and justice are all useless. The only thing left is the winners and the losers. That's it.

"Bone Inferno."

Carefully placing the precious arm into the incubator, I snapped my fingers and instantly activated the barrier magic that had been set up in the wizard's hut just in case. Then, the dog skeletons scattered all over the ground stood up again under the effect of magic. Although these skeleton dogs had not been enhanced by my potion, they were more than enough to restrain a mere high-level knight.

Giggle...

Chuck, chuck, chuck…

Chuck, chuck, chuck…

As soon as they were summoned, my lovely skeleton dogs attacked Ehard. Since there was still a small part of soul consciousness remaining in their remains, they retained some of their original fighting skills. In fact, in my opinion, compared with humanoid skeletons with very little independent consciousness, skeleton dogs are the most suitable low-level summons for the necromancer.

But a skeleton dog is still a skeleton dog, and at best it can only be used to deal with adventurers below the silver level.

Under the battle axe of a senior knight, my cute puppies were immediately shattered. However, they were soon reassembled and summoned in the enchantment of the Skeleton Purgatory. Unless all their parts were destroyed, they would revive endlessly and attack continuously...

"Qian Kun - Breaking the Sky!"

The Guild President also quickly found a way to break the spell, but with a loud shout, my cute puppies were blown to pieces by a terrifying wave of wind. At first glance, the remaining complete bones could only be put together to form two or three puppies at most. In this way, the cost-effectiveness of the summoning barrier is no longer enough for me to continue spending magic power to maintain it.

However, the Skeleton Purgatory had actually successfully played the delaying role as planned. The next moment, I simply closed the summoning barrier and launched another summoning magic that required a long time of chanting.

"Resurrection, my undead knight."

As I whispered softly, the knight decoration that was originally standing aside also moved. I poured the filthy soul of a fallen knight into it. Even though what he did in his life was despicable, his martial arts were not ambiguous at all. Like Ehard, he was also a high-level knight, and was about to break through to become a platinum-level swordsman!

Gala!

The Undead Knight roared like a wild beast, and swung the greatsword in his hand domineeringly towards Ehard's head.

Seeing this, Ehad immediately raised her battle axe horizontally and wanted to withstand this heavy blow head-on, but when she took this defensive posture, she also happened to open her own open door to me. In this case, how could I easily give up this great opportunity?

"Triple Death - Spear of Paralysis."

As I chanted, three spears formed by magic power attacked Ehard's open door at lightning speed. There was a heavy sound of blades clashing. The Undead Knight's sword tightly grasped Ehard's axe, and my three spears also accurately hit Ehard's upper body. Unfortunately...

A stone shield appeared out of nowhere and blocked the third spear.

"There's another guy getting in the way."

With a sullen face, I looked at the old man who had been hiding by the door.

Seeing the old man appear, Ehad's expression became more playful, and he defiantly refuted my previous statement: "You want to kill me in my stone house? You are the one who is dreaming, right?"

As he said that, Ehard used his axe to break away from the Undead Knight's entanglement, retreated to the side of the old man, and exchanged positions.

"Lao Hai, hold the big guy back. I'm going to defeat its summoner—"

"Since this is the young lady's order, I have no choice but to risk my life──"

When I heard the strategies planned by these two, the old and the young, I couldn't help but feel anxious.

Since my soul was seriously injured a while ago, my magic power recovery speed is not as fast as before. In order to summon the Undead Knight, I just spent 80% of my magic power. Add on those three magic spears, and I only have enough magic power left to perform a corpse explosion, which is not enough to resist a high-level knight alone.

"My knight, come back and protect me!"

"Don't try to succeed!"

I called out to my knight from the bottom of my heart, but the old man named Hai Lao saw through my intention at a glance, and immediately cast a falling magic under the feet of the undead knight, directly throwing the undead knight that I had summoned with great effort from the second floor to the first floor...

"Is that all?"

Looking at Ehad gradually approaching me, I once again felt the threat of death.

However, death itself is not scary. What is scary is that after death I will forget everything in my past life. What is scary is that after death I will never be able to find the way to eternal life, and I will never have the chance to take her back from the hands of death!

I can't die yet.

"If you take one more step forward, I will kill your poster girl—"

I placed the scalpel on that slender neck and made the most disdainful threat I could make.

……

……

18. At the cost of freedom (White Nights)

(white night)

"If you take one more step forward, I will kill your poster girl—"

Hearing my threat, Ehad's pace suddenly stopped, but she only paused for a moment, and then rushed towards me at the original speed. Seeing this, I got angry for some reason, and the hand holding the knife tightened, and suddenly I couldn't help but pierce the girl's shoulder vein, drawing a bright flower of blood.

"Don't think I really don't dare to do anything." I threatened again.

However, this time, Ehad did not even stop for a moment. She just stared at me with gritted teeth, and moved forward in a straight and decisive pace. She knew the consequences of this decision and was convinced that this was the best decision at the moment.

"If you kill her, I will avenge her on the spot."

Her tone was eerily calm and indifferent.

However, in fact, as long as there is enlightenment, everyone can become incredibly terrifying, just like a gentle grasshopper, if it is mad with famine, it can also transform into a farmer's nightmare, gnawing everything within sight like a locust. The sharpest weapon in the world has never been a sword, but the belief in people's hearts.

"Okay, I surrender."

Facing the awakened Ehad, I knew that my threats were useless. Instead of fighting to the death, it would be better to leave some room for negotiation. If Ehad's head was not a low-quality product, I don't think she would kill me.

"Then cancel the summons of the Undead Knight."

Sure enough, Ehard's battle axe did not cut off my head in one breath, but just stayed on my neck. Killing me, the evil necromancer, was not in her greatest interest. Miss Lannong was what she valued.

I looked at the Undead Knight who had just rushed into the room, and according to Ehard's request, I snapped my fingers and took back the evil spirits infused in it. Then, the armor suddenly lost power and collapsed on the floor of the room with a clang. At this time, except for a scalpel, the only thing left on my body was probably my bone hairpin, which could barely be called a weapon, right?

"Ebi, check it out."

However, even without the Undead Knight, the axe blade that Ehard had hanging around my neck did not move at all. In order to prevent me from hiding other means of counterattack, she asked the lecherous old man to examine my body carefully, and then he searched my clothes and found dozens of bottles of dangerous potions.

"Hey, hey, let's forget about the breasts?" I said coldly, staring at the old man's dirty hand that wanted to explore the cleavage.

Hearing my dissatisfaction, Ehad next to me made an impatient sound and put her hand directly into my cleavage. After stirring for a while, she found a packet of hypnotic powder for internal use.

"You'd better not play any tricks!"

She warned me and handed the powder to Hai Lao, then had the old man cast several spells on me to restrict my spellcasting. Having said that, the magic level of this lecherous old man who spends all day on the third floor peeking at girls' photos is unexpectedly superb. Judging from the way he used the earthquake spell and the magic-sealing order just now, he at least has the strength of a gold level.

Hai Lao checked the girl's breath on the bed and said, "Miss, the little girl is still breathing."

"Hurry up and restore Xiaolan to her original state!"

Seeing Xiaolan whose belly was cut open and arms were severed by me, Ehad's eyes were filled with anger. But she would not easily attack me before I restored the little poster girl. After all, there might not be another person in the whole city of Mopolis who understood the human body as well as I did. It seemed that a dissection on this scale was an evil that was unimaginable to the world, and should not be understood as a wise man's pursuit of truth.

"I can help you restore this experiment to its original state, but what good will it do me?"

I blinked and looked at President Ehard as innocently as Miss Lannon, and our Miss Knight indeed showed a brief hesitation. She wanted to eliminate the harm for the people and also wanted to rescue Miss Lannon, but this best of both worlds obviously would not happen in this place. My surgical knowledge is accumulated with countless lives, and I am confident that only I can save her poster girl.

After a while of consideration, Ehad glanced at the frowning young lady lying on the bed, and said slowly: "As long as you can make her recover, I can..."

Snapped!

But just when Ehad was about to say the condition I wanted to hear, the old lecher next to him suddenly slammed the table and interrupted Ehad.

Then, he looked at me with questioning eyes and said, "Miss, think about it carefully. Bai Ye's ability is very strange. Neither you nor I can be sure that she will do anything dirty when treating the little girl. Before we are absolutely sure that the little girl is safe, we must not let this necromancer go!"

Haha, ginger, it’s true that the older it is, the spicier it is.

But I, your aunt, have long passed my best years.

"If you don't let me go, I will commit suicide on the spot."

I smiled and added fuel to the conflicted Ehad's fire. She immediately frowned. Seeing her hesitation, I became more certain of the importance of the little brochure girl in her heart. At this moment, if I pushed her one more time...

"Ehard, I'll only give you five minutes to think about it. This time, I'm really willing to take action."

I laughed crazily on purpose, mocking the person in front of me.

"Haha, Ehad, Miss Xiaolan should be the key to bringing joy to the stone house, right? Without her, do you think you can still run your family business well? No... you can't. You don't have that unique talent. You are just a warrior who can only wield swords and guns. There is absolutely no way you can support the heavy stone house by yourself."

"Have you said enough?"

However, Ehad's eyes were colder than expected, and I suddenly realized that I had said the wrong thing.

"If you've said enough, you can kill yourself right now."

She slowly moved the axe blade from my neck and waited for my next move with an indifferent look. She was not betting that I would not dare to commit suicide. She even hoped that I would commit suicide quickly. If Miss Lan Nong could not survive...

She can continue to run the Stone House on her own to prove her own abilities.

If I am an inhuman monster, what about her?

A lost madman?

"Miss Lannon is so pitiful to have such an employer as you—"

I helplessly showed a defeated expression, slowly walked to Miss Lan Nong's side, and turned over my last trump card, exchanging my freedom for the continuation of life: "I can sign a soul contract with Miss Lan Nong and regard her as my master. If she dies because of this human experiment, I will die with her. So, can you accept this condition?"

I turned my attention to Ebi. Ehard was no longer able to make a rational decision.

Hearing this, Hai Lao frowned and added to Ehard beside him: "I can be responsible for reviewing the terms of the soul contract."

Ehad thought for a moment, stared into my eyes, and said coldly: "No, you come to sign a soul contract with me. Xiaolan is too easy to talk to. If I'm not careful, I'm afraid she will be deceived by your words again."
