Chapter 333 - Necromancer King
These days, Lei Luo and Leng Mei got along quite well.
Now, other than the smile on Leng Mei"s face in front of Lei Luo, her att.i.tude towards the others was still cold.
He really couldn"t understand her.
However, what made Lei Luo the happiest was that Leng Mei was actually the chief palace chef.
The delicious dishes that she could cook made the five of them praise her endlessly.
No matter who it was, they all thought that Leng Mei"s culinary skills were pretty good.
Hence, Lei Luo also felt that the three meals of the entire adventurer team should be handed over to Leng Mei.
Moreover, the most amazing thing about Leng Mei was that ever since they ate her cooking,.
Everyone"s appet.i.te had doubled.
From Lei Luo"s point of view, Leng Mei"s food was really good.
She could always turn all kinds of extremely ordinary food into delicious dishes.
Now, when it was time to cook, everyone was staring at Leng Mei.
It seemed that Leng Mei really fed everyone.
Lei Luo continued to move forward until he pa.s.sed through the battle zone and arrived at the territory of the Mist Wind Empire.
This was because several countries in the central continent had jointly issued an SS-level mercenary mission—go to the mysterious island and destroy the undead monarch.
In the past few years, people discovered that an uninhabited island had suddenly been frozen.
Later, a high mage quietly landed on this mysterious island.
After conducting research, they discovered that this was actually the "frozen land of the undead" that had appeared in the legends of the world of the dead.
In other words, a top cla.s.s necromancer had appeared here. It was the undead king.
But soon, the sorcerer was surrounded by thousands of undead creatures.
In the end, he burned his life force to use the "s.p.a.ce transfer" that he had yet to fully explore.
In the end, there was less than a 10% chance that he succeeded.
The sorcerer successfully returned to land and told everyone about this news.
He also died because his life force was exhausted.
After this news, the temple of light quickly sent out the royal knights and jointly issued an SS-grade mission.
The reward was a quasi-divine artifact.
Thus, everyone took a fancy to this quasi-divine artifact and came to register.
They gathered at the seash.o.r.e in the southeast of the Sunset Empire.
Lei Luo"s adventuring team also officially partic.i.p.ated in this mission.
The night was silent.
The stars in the sky constantly flickered.
Lei Luo sat quietly on the gra.s.s, thinking about something.
The other five people all went to the tent behind them to rest.
For some reason, Lei Luo felt a sense of loneliness in his heart.
Why was this?
Suddenly, a figure walked over and sat quietly beside Lei Luo.
"Master, are you still awake?"
Leng Mei turned her head and smiled.
Lei Luo raised his head and looked at Leng Mei.
Leng Mei"s eyes were filled with concern at this moment.
Her eyes seemed to be very bright, like the stars in the sky twinkling.
Lei Luo looked at Leng Mei quietly.
Leng Mei also looked at Lei Luo quietly.
For some reason, the atmosphere suddenly became somewhat ambiguous.
However, Lei Luo and Leng Mei did not notice it.
Looking at Leng Mei"s concerned gaze, Lei Luo suddenly had the urge to hug Leng Mei in his arms.
However, this was just a thought.
Lei Luo looked away and sighed, "I"m just thinking about the past."
"The past?" Leng Mei asked a little later.
Lei Luo nodded and said, "I don"t know why, but I always feel very lonely."
Perhaps it was because of the atmosphere around them that Lei Luo could not help but speak his mind.
"Lonely?" Leng Mei muttered. Her eyes were a little absent-minded, as if she was reminiscing about the past.
In the end, Leng Mei also let out a long breath.
She raised her head to look at the sky and said somewhat dejectedly, "In the past, when I was in the Imperial Palace, I was also filled with loneliness, except when I was facing the princess. I had no choice but to be careful with everyone, especially those who often came to pester me. I had to be even more careful, because as long as something went wrong, I might be doomed forever."
Lei Luo listened to Leng Mei recount everything about herself.
Lei Luo could not help but sigh. The experiences of the two of them were really two extremes.
Lei Luo was at the highest level of all life.
He controlled the fate and life of all living things.
Leng Mei was a commoner knight with a beautiful purple color.
It was not easy to survive in the complicated palace.
Because of this, Leng Mei had to face everyone carefully.
Therefore, she would not have many sincere friends.
For this, she would also feel lonely, which was normal.
But what about Lei Luo?
Lei Luo"s power and his authority were unmatched.
However, Lei Luo always felt an indescribable loneliness in his heart?
After listening to Leng Mei"s story, Lei Luo couldn"t help but sigh.
"Leng Mei, it"s really hard for you. It"s because of this that you left the Sunset Empire."
Leng Mei nodded.
Lei Luo took another deep breath.
"But what about me? Before I joined this adventurer team, I had great power, unparalleled power, and many beautiful women by my side. But why do I still feel lonely?"
Leng Mei stared at Lei Luo"s confused eyes for a long time. Finally, after some thought, she said, "Master, you and I are the opposite. "You feel lonely because you are too powerful. Because everyone is afraid of your power and power, no matter what others do or say, they will involuntarily develop in the direction you want them to. Although you were very happy in the beginning, after a long time, you will feel very bored, which is your loneliness now."
"Is that so?" Lei Luo muttered.
From the very beginning, the four G.o.ddesses were different.
No matter what they did, they were all centered around themselves.
Later on, Bing, Naili, and Little Yue"er were all focused on themselves.
Lei Luo felt that they were different from other women. He felt like they were close friends who could share their hearts to each other.
This feeling made Lei Luo unconsciously pull Leng Mei gently into his embrace.
Leng Mei"s entire body stiffened from Lei Luo"s action.
But she still obediently leaned into Lei Luo"s embrace, feeling an unusual warmth.
Lei Luo just leaned on each other and hugged each other.
The two of them continued to chat, talking about their lives, talking about their understanding of life, talking about almost everything they could talk about.
The night was still quiet.
However, Lei Luo and Leng Mei"s relationship had progressed a lot.
They did not understand each other at the beginning, but now they felt like bosom friends.
But behind them, no one noticed that a beautiful figure was biting her lips and crying.
"Meng, what"s wrong with you?"
Suddenly, a voice came from behind and woke her up.
She looked back and saw that it was Shiya.
