Old John's eyes widened at the incredible scene before him.
The dead man, responding to him?
"Ka-ching-"
Old John took a few steps back in shock, only to accidentally step on a dead tree branch.
"Who!"
Leon immediately reacted and discovered Old John hiding behind the tombstone.
Leon had an impression of him as the tomb keeper here.
"Are you ... you a human or a ghost?"
Old John trembled as he raised his bow and arrow at Leon.
Leon was a second-ranked warrior, of course this kind of thing couldn't threaten him, he could easily dodge it with just a dodge.
Leon's face became a little ugly, and his tone became icy: "Actually seen by you? then I can only ..."
Is he ... he going to kill himself to silence him? Old John's heart trembled.
Leon pulled out a money bag from his arms and threw it into Old John s arms.
"Ten gold coins, keep this secret for me, not allowed to talk to anyone!"
Old John: ...
Seeing Old John freeze in place, Leon showed dissatisfaction, "Not enough? You can't be too greedy!"
Old John quickly said, "Enough! Enough, enough!"
Just kidding, ten gold coins was nearly a year's salary for him!
"Hmph, this money isn't for nothing, if I know that you've told this matter, don't blame me, Leon, for being rude to you."
Leon? Could it be that unscrupulous Young Master Leon?
Old John nodded his head repeatedly, "I know, Young Master Leon, if you just gave me ten guts, I wouldn't dare to say today's matter outside."
After all, this one's ruthlessness was something Old John had heard about.
It was only when he watched Leon's silhouette walk away in the setting sun that Old John's hanging heart was released.
Old John looked at the bulging money bag in his hand and muttered, "It seems like it's not as bad as the rumors."
...
Leon walked alone on the road, the setting sun lengthening his shadow.
[Name] Leon. Gugaman
[Identity] Son of the Lord of Lech City, Demon Contractor
[Strength] Second-ranked warrior, first-ranked necromancer.
Panel] Magic 34 Spirit 35 Strength 45 Agility 30 Endurance 35 Necromancy 30
[Title] Mage Apprentice
[Skills] Necrotic Shock, Necrotic Summoning.
Through these days of fumbling, Leon had finally become a first-rank Necromancer and had an additional skill of summoning dead spirits.
However, what he could currently do was only manipulate a dead person.
The reason why Leon went to the graveyard was naturally to absorb the dead qi, the graveyard was the place where the dead qi was the most dense.
And dead qi was the key to a necromancer's ability to manipulate corpses, a necromancer had to use dead qi to transform a corpse into an undead creature before he could drive on it.
And because he had signed a contract with the Demon of Death, Leon's talent in this area had been boosted, and he was learning fast, it would take a lot of time for an ordinary person to get started as a Necromancer.
Everything was moving in a good direction.
A silhouette wearing a pure white vestment robe stood by the side of the road, seemingly waiting for someone.
Suddenly, the person opened his mouth at Leon and asked, "You are Leon. Gujaman?"
Leon returned, "No."
"But I sense the aura of death in you." The tip of the man's nose twitched, "So it's a dirty necromancer, I am the Holy Church Inquisitor, Stroh, prepare to be judged by the light."
Shit, is this person sick in the head?
Leon cursed in his heart, he had heard that the people of the Holy Synod were a bit brain-dead, but Leon could not have imagined that they had become pedantic to such an extent. , actually taking action against himself as soon as he came up?
Strode's weapon was a set of meteor hammers, the sound of wind whistling, a meteor hammer flew towards Leon at a rapid speed.
Strode's strength was fourth rank, now Leon was only a second rank warrior, and since there were no Necromancer creatures around for him to drive, the Necromancer's strength was not utilized at all.
Deadly Aura Shock!
Stroh's eyes were slightly dazed for a moment, but immediately came to his senses.
Taking advantage of Stroh's daze, Leon narrowly avoided that meteor hammer, breaking out into a cold sweat.
One second later, his head would have exploded.
That Inquisitor, when he struck, it was a killing blow!
Leon's eyes went cold as he looked at Strode, Inquisitor? More like a machine made for killing.
This was the Holy Order's style of doing things? Leon instantly developed a strong dislike for this organization.
"Crooked and evil, why bother struggling any longer? Why don't you obediently give up resistance." Stroe waved the meteor hammer in his hand with a sneer.
Leon unleashed God's Eye on Stroh.
[Name] Strode. Leon.
[Identity] Inquisitor of the Holy Synod
[Strength] Fourth Order Holy Light Warrior
[Panel] Magic 145 Spirit 154 Strength 236 Agility 248 Holy Breath 198
[Title] Apostle of Holiness. (Increased damage to darkness)
Skills: Judgement of Light, Holy Light Shackles.
Leon took a deep breath, at the moment, it was completely impossible for him to be Strode's opponent, the difference in strength between each rank was like a rift in the heavens, not to mention, there was a difference of two ranks between him and Strode.
Even the attribute panel given by God's Eye, Strode was also crushing Leon.
The meteor hammer came whistling again, and this time Leon could not avoid it.
Stroh was a little excited, as if he had already seen the image of the Heretic's blowing up in front of him.
However, that kind of thing didn't happen.
"Bang-"
A tall figure stepped in front of Leon and sent that meteor hammer flying with a single punch, the mammoth force of the blow dislodging even the handle in Stroh's hand.
Leon spoke softly, "Father."
Joel gazed at the Inquisitor in front of him, and in his pupils were flames of anger.
This fellow, actually dared to strike at his own son in his own territory! His own son, almost killed by this Inquisitor!
"Give me an explanation." Joel's tone had gathered a full murderous aura.
Stroh's face changed, "Why is Lord City Lord harboring this brat, he is a Necromancer."
"He is my son."
"So you are Leon." There was a hint of resentment in Strode's eyes as he looked at Leon, it must have been the fact that he had been deceived earlier that made him enraged, "I am a member of the Holy Church, it is only right to eliminate demons!"
Joel spoke icily, "Any last words?"
Strode shouted, "The light of the Holy Light will one day purify you scum of darkness!"
A hand rested on Yol's shoulder.
"Father, let him live." Leon shook his head.
"Why?" Looking at Leon's face, the lion's eyes gradually softened. "Don't be afraid of the Holy Synod's retaliation, they won't dare to be too reckless, I can protect you."
"I want ... to solve him with my own hands." Leon's gaze firmly locked with Yol's, "I won't always be under your wings."
Yol looked at Leon with more than a hint of relief in his eyes.
"Then I will listen to you."
Yol came to Stroh and kicked him so hard in the chest that Stroh's chest dented a large crater in the flesh.
Stroe fell to the ground vomiting blood.
"This way, he won't be able to trouble you for a while." Joel gave Leon a kind smile, "Let's go, it's time to go home, and on the way, bring Lucy some desserts from the dim sum store."
The sunset stretched the figures of father and son going home down the road for a long, long time.
