Diablo traveled through time and became a necromancer
Chapter 221 Meeting with King Leoric
For some reason, Wu Ye felt that there seemed to be more and more eyes behind him, but he couldn't see anything, which made him a little uncomfortable. Although he knew that these ghosts could pass through walls and make others invisible, it was still a bit creepy.
After walking in the dungeon with Majies for nearly two hours, Wu Ye finally heard what he wanted to hear.
"This is the king's palace. Please follow me."
As he spoke, Majes saluted Wu Ye like a knight, which made Wu Ye a little overwhelmed. He had no idea what to do in this situation. Did he need to return the salute?
However, while Wu Ye was thinking, Majies turned and walked into the hall. Under the illumination of the ghost fire, the building, which was already very dark underground, seemed even darker. This was because the ghost fire did not illuminate all the surrounding areas, but only illuminated parts of the area, which would produce particularly large shadows. It was like you were in a very dark house with only a lit match in your hand. The light source was too little.
When Wu Ye came here before, he was not panicked at all, but now he felt a little panicked. After swallowing his saliva, Wu Ye prepared himself mentally, but found that taking this step was still a bit difficult.
But he couldn't let people laugh at him, could he? Taking heavy steps, Wu Ye looked ready to die. Although he knew Leoric might not harm him at the moment, he was still afraid. It was like being a rabbit and a tiger wanted to meet you. You knew the tiger was full and guaranteed not to kill you, but you were still afraid.
Wu Ye still turned on his magic lantern, making the surroundings a little brighter. When Wu Ye came, he talked to Majies and asked him whether the undead could see in the dark. Majies laughed and said, "You are already undead, so how can you say you have vision?"
It was obvious that he had been lighting ghost lights all the way here just to take care of Wu Ye, a human being.
"You came."
Wu Ye had just stepped a few steps into the hall when he heard the man's voice coming from the innermost part. It sounded full of energy and seemed to carry some kindness.
"Ahem, Lao Li, long time no see, did you miss me?"
Even he himself did not expect that he would say such words. Originally, he could say such words without fear when he could not see Leoric, but he did not expect that he could say them in front of him now. It can only be said that he has a big heart.
"Hahaha, you're still as uncomplimentary as before. I was right. I sense a powerful force from our ancestors within your body. It seems you've encountered some kind of adventure recently."
King Leoric did not blame Wu Ye for his rudeness, but instead appreciated him even more. Originally, he attached great importance to these etiquettes, but he felt that the man in front of him was special, and that he had something that these people in the world could not possess.
Wu Ye was shocked after hearing this. Was it so obvious that he had gained the power from Lasma? Was it also so obvious in the eyes of Kasha and others?
Isn't this just like carving a sentence on your head that says I have gained some kind of power?
"Yes, the boy once saw a man in Lu Gaoyin's dream. He was the one who gave him these powers."
I guess Leoric should know who it is without Wu Ye having to explain it.
"Majestic, please go out and wait. This kid and I have something to talk about alone."
At this moment, the originally dim palace suddenly became brightly lit. Wu Ye finally saw what was inside clearly. He also saw King Leoric sitting on the throne in the front. The red carpet under his feet stretched all the way forward. Above the steps, on the tall seat, Leoric supported his head with one hand, tilted his head and looked at Wu Ye below.
The golden crown on his head gleamed, and the dark armor on his body made his skeleton body appear even more majestic and domineering. The sledgehammer lay quietly beside his seat.
Wu Ye did not say anything, just observed silently. Leoric also had a skull face at this time, making it impossible for Wu Ye to guess what he was thinking, nor could he see his expression.
"You don't seem surprised at all to see me?"
Leoric had no idea that Wu Ye had seen it countless times in the game, so how could he be surprised? The only feeling he might have had was pressure, not surprise.
"After all, I've seen your portrait before I came here, Old Li, so I'm not too surprised. After all, I'm also a necromancer, and I've spent the longest time with skeletons. On the contrary, I'm not surprised or scared when I see you, but rather feel a bit close to you!"
Wu Ye was lying without blushing. No one would believe him if he said he was not afraid!
"In that case, there's no need to waste any more time on this nonsense. I'm sure you're aware of the incident a while ago when a clone of the Demon King of Hell came to my territory, right?"
Hearing this, Wu Ye immediately thought of Belial who had come here before, but it seemed that he was not strong enough and was beaten to death by Kasha. Kasha did not say what happened specifically.
"I heard that some cultists captured people from above and used them as sacrifices to summon it, but it was destroyed by Kasha."
After hearing this, Leoric actually stood up from his chair, but thankfully, he didn't draw his weapon. Only after he stood up did Wu Ye realize how tall Leoric was. This was definitely the height of a barbarian! He was even taller than a barbarian. Perhaps he had become so enormous after being transformed into a skeleton!
"That was just what happened at the beginning. Later, I sent out troops and discovered some cultists in the dense forests in the north. However, they seemed to have been strengthened by the power of demons. They were difficult to kill and instead summoned a large number of demons. Perhaps you noticed this when you came here?"
Wu Ye suddenly remembered sensing the presence of the Undead Army on their previous visit to Tristram, but he hadn't expected it to be this way. From what Wu Ye knew, the dense forests to the north were quite a distance from Tristram, and with several mountains blocking the way, it was practically impossible to reach them directly. Furthermore, that forest had never been cultivated, and no one knew what lay within. Who could have imagined it hiding in such a hidden place? These cultists were truly fearless.
"I was wondering why there was the aura of an undead army. So that's how it is? Thank you so much, Old Li."
I don't know why Wu Ye never behaves like he should when facing an elder. Instead, he and Leoric act like close friends regardless of age difference, and Leoric doesn't mind.
