59 Immortal Everything

"I... thank you for helping me! And... please forgive me for being rude before!"

Desili half-knelt on the ground and lowered her head deeply.

Seeing that the necromancer had become humble, Jiang Xiaotan sat down, and Xiang Zilan jumped into his arms.

The arrogance in the noble prince's eyes decreased a bit, and he said: "Very good, I accept your apology. I also hope you know that not all Constantine people are as cruel and ruthless as the beasts in the Inquisition."

He now thinks of himself as a Constantinian and has forgotten that his "setting" is that of a Romunian noble.

Daisy, on the other hand, had a strong reaction to the "inquisition" in his words. She clenched her teeth and her body trembled constantly.

Jiang Xiaotan noticed this, and it seemed that he had touched the wound in the Necromancer's heart.

"Huh, okay, tell me, is there anything you need our help with?"

Daisy calmed down and said: "I came to Constantine to find the treasure left by the true ancestor of vampires - Kain's yew staff. Of course, Kain here does not refer to you, but to the vampire

The second true ancestor, the Dark Prince Kain.”

"Well, I know, go on."

"According to historical records, the Prince of Darkness poured powerful power into his yew staff, which can imprison people's souls, summon powerful undead warriors, and..."

Daisy raised her head and said seriously,

"It is said to be able to reshape the soul of a loved one and resurrect it."

"Pfft." The guild leader couldn't help laughing.

Xiang Zilan lay comfortably on her back in her owner's arms. Seeing this, she stared at him with wide eyes, not understanding why he was laughing.

If the magic staff can imprison the soul and summon immortal warriors, he believes it.

It might even be possible to reshape souls, resurrect people, etc. After all, Jiang Xiaotan, as a layman in necromancy, could create fake souls.

But adding the prefix "loved one" makes this statement ridiculous, just like some urban legends on Blue Star.

"Is this funny?" Daisy said awkwardly.

"No, no, I remembered something happy, please continue."

"I have been searching near Constantine for a long time, but I have never found the whereabouts of this treasure, and then I accidentally fell into it..." Daisley recalled the torture she had suffered, and couldn't help but feel cold again.

"Okay, you can skip this part. Didn't you find the staff in the ruins over there?"

"Huh? How did you know?"

"The ruins over there are the remains of the old vampire capital. Since that staff belongs to the true ancestor of the vampire, it is probably left there."

Desili nodded, and then said: "Yes, although I didn't see the treasure, I have sensed it."

"Pfft haha."

"...You think of happy things again?"

"No, I was wondering, do you have anything to do with that True Ancestor? Can you still sense his staff?"

Daisley shook her head and said: "I have nothing to do with the Prince of Darkness, but there is a fragment of the yew staff in my body."

"That's it." The noble master suppressed his smile, "So, do you want us to help you seize the staff and resurrect your beloved?"

"Resurrection of my beloved? No." The Necromancer shook his head and denied, "I want to use that staff to take out the fragments in my body and lift the curse on me."

"curse?"

"I am actually the one who was resurrected. And the resurrection spell of the Prince of Darkness also brought me the curse of immortality."

"Immortal? But weren't you almost killed by the Inquisition?"

Daisy closed her eyes and said, "No, if I fall into a near-death state, I will forcibly take away the life force of the people around me and resurrect me."

"Uh... that is to say..."

"If you don't rescue me, I will kill those magicians when I'm about to die, and I will resurrect and complete my revenge at the same time."

This is also the reason why Desili has no gratitude at all for the hunters' rescue actions.

He was holding back his ultimate move and was about to kill him, but the hunters forcibly interrupted his ultimate move and dragged him away.

Bai was tortured.

Jiang Xiao was speechless for a while, and then said: "Sorry..."

I feel a little... ashamed when I think of how he was so arrogant just now asking people to be grateful.

He wanted to change the topic quickly: "However, the ability to be immortal is not what everyone desires. Why do you regard it as a curse?"

"Immortals like me don't age like vampires. The body will age naturally and have to bear the pain of death. It would be better if you were killed or died accidentally. If you get seriously ill, the torture is the most painful.

....and...."

A trace of sadness flashed in Desili's eyes,

"When I'm dying, I will absorb the life force around me uncontrollably. And when you're dying, the people who can protect you are the ones who love you the most."

"Depending on the situation, it may be a creditor or someone who covets your inheritance."

"....Your thoughts are so dark."

"This is called... pragmatism."

"Hmph, did you know that if there is not enough vitality around you when you are about to die, you will turn into a disgusting zombie like the walking dead over there in the ruins. It will not turn back into a human until it absorbs enough vitality. It is changing.

The physical pain will remain until you return to humanity."

Therefore, after she was surrounded by zombies, she immediately fled in a hurry. Because there was no life force to absorb around there, if she entered a near-death state there, she would probably be tortured forever.

After finishing speaking, the two fell into a brief silence. To break the awkwardness, Jiang Xiaotan asked:

"Speaking of which, are you noble this year?"

"About 109 years old, right? I became like this when I was 17 years old."

"Well, at this age, a relatively long-lived person can live, right? Have you experienced the pain of death many times?"

"I participated in Francis's civil war and died 1827 times during the war."

This number is even more terrifying. A civil war broke out in the Kingdom of Francis in the Western Continent about 30 years ago. The war lasted for 11 years, and eventually the kingdom split into two countries: East Francis and West Francis.

Died 1827 times, which means that during the war, Desili died on average once every two days.

No wonder she regards her immortality as a curse.

"Well, Ms. Daisley, please let me express my sympathy for what you are going through."

Jiang Xiaotan stood up, put down the vanilla, and then bowed to Daisy.

"However, please understand that we cannot help you, because firstly, the Demonic Ruins itself is very dangerous, full of all kinds of warcraft and undead monsters, and secondly, your ability is too dangerous for us."

The most important thing is the second item.

If you are a teammate with someone who has this kind of passive resurrection ability, you must protect her well. If she accidentally dies and triggers her passive, the teammates around her will be sacrificed.

However, Daisy said coldly: "Although I don't want to do this, I'm afraid you don't have the right to choose."
