Chapter 47: Lady Tia
"Quack, Quack"
A skeleton with a funny feathered hat ran to the farmland outside the castle at a seemingly clumsy but not slow pace, and found Lady Tia, who was directing the work in the field, and handed her a piece of paper.
She was told in plain terms that she had found clues about her husband Singh and invited her to the castle canteen for a detailed discussion.
Lady Tia, who was calmly surrounded by a large group of skeletons, suddenly panicked, threw away the farm tools, forgot to give orders to the skeletons, and hurried towards the castle.
Naturally, without her orders, the skeletons followed her and formed a long line, stunned by the two traversers on duty at the castle gate.
"What are you doing here? Do skeletons want to work out too?"
"Could it be that Hammer guy is finally going to make big news?"
Hammer the Necromancer is now the number one laborer in the castle, and there are currently hundreds of skeletons working around the clock in the castle, maintaining buildings, taking care of chores, and farming...... This guy, who was originally an evil boss, has successfully turned into a civilian and has become the chief leader of the castle servants.
It is said that on more than one occasion, he was suggested that he should simply find an expert in making curse props such as Alice, get a transgender belt, and become the head maid.
Unfortunately, Hammer himself has no intention of changing sex, on the contrary, he has gradually returned to the traditional mage lifestyle - in short, the word "house" - since he pushed his job to increasingly capable skeletons and castle outsiders like Lady Tia.
He hung a sign on the door of his room that read "Skull Institute" and spent his days studying skeletons inside. Although he can only make skeletons, as he strives for excellence, the quality of the skeletons he makes is getting better and better, and the crafting techniques are becoming more and more sophisticated. It is said that he is currently researching how to improve the intelligence of skeletons, and the plan is to create skeletons that can perform simple tasks without commanding.
The traversers are quite optimistic about him, how to say that he is also a purple template BOSS, the ultimate demon king of the novice village, doing some research on civilian technology, what else to say?
Traversers from the necromantic and demonic systems often come to visit him on their own initiative, and they exchange research experiences. Everyone found that although Hammer was limited to a low level and relatively poor knowledge, he was actually quite smart and good at perfecting details, which could just make up for the shortcomings of the traversers' huge brains and sparse details.
At present, he is already an important member of the "Necromantic Club", and his status is so high that he is unknown to those powerful death knights.
Since the traversers snatched Duke Henry's corpse back, there have been a lot of new ideas - although they can't take the initiative to kill people or steal corpses to create necromantic masters, if they have ready-made ones, they can also use them.
In order to prevent future troubles, they cremated the body of Duke Henry, but in the subsequent war, they carefully selected the corpses of some good enemies and transformed them into death knights.
It's a pity that because they didn't dare to attack those famous masters, the strength of the Death Knights transformed was mediocre, with an average level of only forty-five, and if they really fought, they could probably bully and bully ordinary elite troops, and it was still not enough to meet the personal guards of those big nobles.
...... Of course, if you change your gear, it's a completely different story. But who's going to give these guys a lot of gear?
Don't forget, they were everyone's enemies!
The traversers don't like to use the spells of the domination system, when they transform the death knights, they pay more attention to the integrity of the memory and the growth of the death knights, as for the degree of controllability, it doesn't matter - they can't betray them anyway, they can't even hide their thoughts, then it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if they don't want to be obedient, at most send them to the warehouse.
As a result, there is a death knight at the door of each warehouse, they are silent, they sit there motionless almost all day, and if there is no order, they can even move for ten days and half a month, as if they effectively imitate Bodhidharma's posture.
It's not that all Death Knights can't let go of their grievances in life, and some Death Knights are very open-minded, and some even find this life form very interesting now, actively participating in various things, and quite active.
For example, the castle's patrol is now run by these Death Knights and skeletons.
How does this look like the castle of a certain demon king, and more than one person has complained about this, but Sanyu only used one sentence to spray back all their complaints.
"If you have any opinions, how about you become the patrol leader yourself?"
So they all had no opinion.
The traversers don't mind being janitors, anyway, they can sit in the janitor's room in a daze, chat, or read comics or something - there are online writers in the squatting team at home, there are comics, and there are also writers and painters who have changed jobs in the past ten years, and there is no shortage of spiritual food.
But leading a patrol is different, you can't just walk and watch. The castle is not a street, and if you are a low-header, you will accidentally hit the wall.
Mrs. Tia ran as fast as she could, running past two patrols in quick succession. A death knight who led a patrol also smiled and said to her, "Don't be in such a hurry, there is a lot of spare time." This is a joke used by the Death Knights, because when they die, it's all idle work.
In normal times, she will definitely stop politely, say hello to the other person, or make small talk. But today she ignored it at all, and was still running all the way. Obviously he was just a level 6 civilian, but he ran out of the speed of a professional adventurer.
In a few moments, she ran to the castle cafeteria—except for matters that required secrecy, as the travelers were accustomed to gossiping in the cafeteria.
In the cafeteria, Pratt, Fenghuang, Panda and Sanyu were waiting for her.
When Mrs. Tia came, they didn't talk nonsense, and told her about Singled's current situation.
“...... That's pretty much it. Pratt sighed and said, "We're also struggling right now, and we don't know what to do." So ask you first and ask for your opinion. ”
Mrs. Tia was silent for a moment, then asked, "He...... How are you doing now?"
"I used to have a good life, but now I am not doing well. Pratt replied, "He was under a lot of psychological pressure, and he was depressed every day. ”
“...... Have Seri and I become a burden to him?" asked Lady Tia in a low voice.
"From what I've observed, it's not. Pratt shook his head, "If he felt that you were a burden to him, he would never be in such pain - with all due respect, there are so many ways to deal with the 'burden' for someone like him, and it is not worth the pain at all." Only what he cares about, what he cares about, can make him miserable. ”
"So, is there anything I can do to help him?" asked Lady Tia's eyes, eagerly.
Traversers, you look at me, I look at you, and we're at a loss together.
They never imagined that this would be what Lady Tia had in mind.
