Chapter 23: The Human Body

Human corpses are no different to me than the corpses of other creatures, not even the smoky deli meat they ate tonight. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Humans have an innate fear of the corpses of other humans, presumably because their brains involuntarily judge whether they will die like the corpses they see. For the undead, there is no such emotion.

One is that the undead have no brains in the first place, and they don't even have self-consciousness, so how can they be afraid of corpses.

The second is that most of the undead still need to feed on corpses, whether they are of the same kind or not, they can provide them with energy. Of course, skeletons like me don't need to eat corpses, and even if they do, they don't have organs to store and transform.

So when I saw this human corpse, I took the initiative to go up and take a look.

"My knife skills are good, right?" The lich said behind me, and at some point he took out a short, sharp bright silver knife and turned it nimbly in his hand. "I was the man whom the Inquisition called a "scalpel pope" and a "dissecting maniac". The lich looked proud, but I had no idea what he was talking about, so I might as well keep looking at the human corpse.

All the cuts were intact, straight without a single blemish, and should be the credit of the sharp knife in the lich's hand. From the beginning to the end, I slowly discovered that every incision can fully show all the layers of it, and this control is really magical.

"I have dissected more than 10,000 humans, and nearly all the species in this world, including the dragons who are dying extinct, and I know the bodies of all living beings inside out, which is the most basic thing to be a necromancer." The lich saw that I had been ignoring him, and took the initiative to come over and say.

"The Sandru family has a complete inheritance, but the Holy See of Light has obtained very little, I heard that most of the Sandru family were tortured to death, and even the souls were extracted and consumed, and they didn't reveal a little information, only a small number of people said not much, so people like me who are half-way monks and have not yet had an authentic inheritance can only rely on themselves to accumulate the knowledge of the species body." The lich smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Okay, let's not talk about the past, let's start today's teaching, this is a human corpse, a thief I caught on the street a few days ago, it's really unfortunate for him, as you can see, it's a man, what kind of expression do you have, isn't it just that you don't have genitals, I cut it, it's in his hand, you can take his hand away and see!" The lich looked at my expressionless skull and said, he can feel my soul directly, that's the gap.

I took away the hand of the human who had been completely opened, and sure enough, there was a male genitalia curled into a ball, and two balls were attached to it, I heard that it was the place where the offspring were born?

"Okay, let's go on, start from the outermost layer, the outermost layer is the skin, there are several layers, you can sense it with your soul, and then the inside is..."

After the lich finished finishing the human body, there was only a shriveled heart in his hands, and the rest was scattered all over the bright stone platform, piles of minced flesh and internal organs, fortunately the stone platform was large enough.

All the information has been stored in my soul sea, which is arguably the only place I am powerful now, much better than the shriveled white withered brains of humans. Although the Lich says that the human brain is too little developed, and that it is no worse than the Soul Sea when fully developed, I don't believe it.

When I walked out of the basement, the summoner fell asleep at the exit of the basement, I don't know when she came, I saw that it was all dark outside, and in human time, the lich and I were about thirteen hours in it, and I was so focused on studying that I forgot the time, and I didn't have a sense of time in the first place.

I put one arm under the summoner's knee leg and the other on her back and picked her up.

"Hmm, little skeleton, you're out, when is this?" The summoner, An Ling, opened his eyes in a daze, looked at me and asked.

"I don't know, it's probably late, I'll take you to sleep, I'll tell me what it's like to meditate tomorrow, I haven't had time to see which imprint yet." I carried her down the red-carpeted stairs. The summoner reached out and put his arm around my neck, and for a moment my slender vertebrae were under tremendous pressure.

The summoner nodded, and without further speech, I felt her fall asleep again in a daze. I kicked open the door to her room, uh, as if I had forgotten that there was something called a lock on top of the door.

Forget it, we'll talk about it tomorrow.

I walked over to her bed, the layers of pink gauze felt the humans close and layer by layer, revealing the stone bed within, and I gently laid the summoner An Ling flat on the bed, letting go of her arm that was holding my spine.

I exited her room and went to the study where I had been staying the longest, and it was a long night, so I had better read a book.

It seems that when the lich cut different human bodies today, several books were introduced, and I called up the fragments in the soul sea, and then saw the title of the book, so I slowly found these books and read them carefully, and sure enough, it was everything about the human body! The author seems to be still a human being, and human beings are really perverted, and they don't even let go of their own bodies.

There are also stories of experiments on living humans in these books, and although I read them with relish, it's a strange race to think that most weak humans are capable of doing such things! At this time, I remembered that the lich said that all necromancers are perverts, which is really correct.

One of the books has a thousand ways to die for human beings at the back, and there are more than a thousand ways to count them carefully, and most of them are the author's own hands.

Looking at it like this, human beings are really fragile, and they will die even if they bleed too much, which completely subverts my previous worldview.

An Ling opened the door and poked her head into the study, I looked up at her, she smiled at me, "Thank you last night, little skeleton, sleeping downstairs this morning, my neck is probably uncomfortable to death." ”

I closed the book, got up and opened the door to let her into the study, clearing a portion of the open space for her to sit down.

"Meditation should be very physically exhausting, right, the old lich said that I should not meditate for a while now, it will delay some time, I haven't studied the mark passed by the lich, when I carried you upstairs last night, I felt that your physical strength was very weak, and your spirit was also very weak, no problem, right?" I asked her.

"Well, to recover the magic elements, most of the magic elements are very violent, in the room specially prepared by the lich, it also consumes a lot of mental power to distinguish different magic elements, so it didn't take long to consume the mental power and had to come out, and you didn't have time to read with me, so I was at the door of the basement, using the special method of the lich sect to restore mental power, and I accidentally fell asleep." An Ling said to me.

"Let's go to breakfast, the lich should be ready." I closed the other open books, which showed bloody pictures of human entrails, and some of them said that humans seemed to be afraid of such things.

We got up and went downstairs, the lich hadn't put the summoner's food on the dining room table as usual, and we went into the kitchen to find that there was not even a fire lit, and the lich seemed to have gone out, and he didn't tell me last night.

It seems that humans must feed to survive, and magicians seem to be even more so! Now it's troublesome, I don't know how to cook food, can I let the summoner eat raw food?

"Well, little skeleton, you can cook for me." An Ling also seems to have noticed that the lich was not in this predicament. "I won't," I replied crisply.

"I said you do," An Ling said.

"Okay," I replied, and walked into the kitchen.

"It's called an egg, it's the offspring of a chicken creature, what is a chicken? It's an animal, and I don't know how to tell you what it looks like. This is indeed the offspring of animals, but it is made of vegetarian, really vegetarian, and I don't know why it is vegetarian, anyway. Put oil and fry again, it's smoking, hurry up, turn off the fire, this is a magic flame, use mental power to close the fire attribute magic elements inside, oh, you can't control it, forget..."

An Ling guided me next to me, and finally made a plate of yellow, black, red, and green semi-paste, but fortunately I couldn't smell it, it didn't look good, just think about it. I took this plate and put it on the table, and it didn't seem to have the relaxed feeling of a lich!

An Ling sat down and picked up the spoon gently, frowned, and put it in her mouth. "Barely able to eat, little skeleton, you have to practice your cooking skills, and if the lich is not there every day, you will cook for me every day." An Ling told me while eating.

I didn't answer, and watched quietly as she ate.

"Don't keep looking at me, you won't be able to eat it." That being said, it seems that she has already eaten. I got up and picked up the plate in front of her, and went through the process called washing, human life. An Ling came to me and watched me clean the pots, spatulas and plates. When I was done, she asked me, "What's in the basement?" ”

I said, "Nothing, and I didn't look closely." An Ling looked a little excited after hearing this, "I want to go in and have a look, okay, it's rare that the lich is not here today, maybe there will be no chance in the future."

I was a little embarrassed, the lich told me how to open the basement, he said I can enter the basement at any time, as long as I don't disturb him, although we were forbidden to enter the basement before, but at this time it was not clearly stated, I actually understand this language loophole, many mythical gods are deceived like fools.

"There's something in there that humans fear," I thought about it, or said, "You really want to go in?" ”

"En" the summoner nodded, not going in once, very unwillingly.
