After Rhodes left the island, Vera did not give the necromancers any chance to breathe, and asked them to carry out the transformation mission.
"There are already a sufficient number of undead creatures in the surrounding ocean. You can control as many as you want. The transformation also needs the power of high-level undead creatures to complete, and you do not need to use spiritualism yourself."
After explaining this, Vera ignored these necromancers and walked towards a certain direction on the island.
Until Vera left, the surrounding necromancers still did not dare to make any move. The name of "Devouring the Undead" had already deeply shocked them.
After leaving, Vera did not go to the ocean to transform undead creatures like Kane did. Instead, she came to a towering cliff facing the ocean.
Not far away, those corpse witches who came here with Vera from the main plane have already tightly surrounded the cliff and are waiting for Vera's arrival.
After arriving here, Vera did not give orders to the corpse witches, but found a place to sit down.
On the ground at his feet, the earth had traces of being turned over. A half-rectangular stone slab was embedded in the soil. The stone slab was covered with a layer of brightly picked flowers, covering the words on the surface. Perhaps it was because it had been too long.
The originally bright flowers now show signs of withering.
Vera just sat next to the stone slab, looking at the sea in the distance from the cliff, looking at the undulating waves, plus the undead creatures that often appeared among them.
The magic book that Rhodes gave him was put aside casually. He would not even take a second look at the various precious magics recorded in the book.
Vera's heart fell silent. If there were no other things to disturb him, he could sit here until his soul decayed.
After an unknown amount of time, a sound of footsteps came from behind Vera, breaking his tranquility.
"Vera, I received news about the spiritual imprint. Has Rhodes been here?"
What appeared behind Vera was the death knight Kane who was performing the mission with him.
Kane's body was dripping wet, leaving a puddle of water behind him as he walked. It looked like he had just come out of the water, and his clothes had already turned white, with a lot of seaweed still attached to them.
"Lord Rhodes brought a group of necromancers, and they have left now. This is what he gave to you."
With that said, Vera stood up and handed the bag of space gems and the magic book into Kane's hands.
"What happened? You don't look good..." Keenly aware of the chill emanating from Vera, Kane took the initiative to ask.
"It's none of your business." Vera replied coldly.
"Of course this has something to do with me. We are partners on a mission together. Have you forgotten? Didn't you tell me yourself that you would complete the mission assigned by Lord Rhodes and wait until you are free to live with Jane? Why are you now?
Are you slacking off?" Kane retorted, "And where is Jane? Why didn't I see her?"
Kane's words came to her ears, and Vera opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she said nothing, turned her head away, and looked at the sea in the distance again.
"Wait..." At this moment, Kane seemed to have discovered something. He leaned down and swept away the flowers on the stone slab, revealing the crooked carvings on the surface of the stone slab.
Jane Merest.
"What happened?" Kane stood up quickly and asked Vera, "I have checked all locations on the island. There are no other enemies here. She cannot be in danger. The only person she trusts is you.
What exactly did you do?"
Vera looked at Kane and said indifferently: "I killed her and buried her here."
As soon as Vera finished speaking, he received a heavy blow on the face.
Kane's hard fist hit Vera's face. Vera's figure became unstable, fell to the stone slab, and was wrapped in the flowers.
"Fuck you..." Kane yelled angrily, "You cold-blooded bastard."
Even after becoming a death knight, Kane's ideas in his heart have not changed.
He received a heavy blow on the face, but Vera felt nothing. His body had long been numb to the pain, but for some reason, real pain emerged from Vera's heart.
"Give me a reason." Kane angrily yelled, "Otherwise, even if I can't complete Rhodes' mission, I will bring all the undead creatures and fight you to the death."
"What's the reason..." Vera lowered her head and said absently, "I can feel that her heart is full of pain and despair. She often sits on the cliff, looking at the sea and crying silently. To her, that's all
If you continue to live, you will only experience more pain."
Vera's voice continued to tremble. Unlike the numb coldness shown in front of Rhodes, Vera's heart was now filled with pain, as if a sharp knife had penetrated his body and kept gouging out his organs.<
/p>
Even Kane's expression changed after hearing Vera's words.
"I once deceived her with lies." Vera covered her head with her hands, opened her eyes wide, and stared at the empty ground in the distance. "At that time, her heart was also full of despair. In order to make her feel better, I
Tell her that her mother is still alive, but was injured by Lord Rhodes, and is now hiding somewhere on the island to recover from her injuries."
"But in fact, her mother died in the hands of Lord Rhodes from the very beginning." Vera said painfully.
"She believed what I said. Whenever the tide rose, she would come to the cliff full of hope and wait for her mother's return. It was not until the tide fell that she left in disappointment."
"I can feel the despair and pain accumulating in her heart day after day. I gave her hope to live, but this hope was false from the beginning and will never be realized!
"Vera roared in pain.
"Instead of living in such pain, I believe that death can bring her real peace. She doesn't need to be disturbed by anything and can just sleep like this."

At the end of the sentence, Vera looked at the stone slab below, wondering what she was thinking.
"Maybe I shouldn't have saved her from the beginning. Just like Lord Rhodes said, the death knight doesn't need such feelings, and she won't suffer such pain..."
Vera fell into deep self-blame.
Kane sighed deeply: "You are right about one thing."
"You gave her hope to live, but this hope is definitely not the lie you think it is, but you, Vera!" With that said, Kane came to Vera, lifted his collar forcefully,
"It's not the you who is the necromancer, nor the bullshit 'devourer of the undead', but the real you."
Kane asked loudly: "Do you understand? Even though Jian was in so much pain, and even her heart was filled with despair, she still chose to survive strongly because of your existence, and you are the hope in her heart! Do you think
Can't you feel her feelings for you?"
"You mean..." Vera said with a trembling voice, her eyes that had long since lost their sparkle were faintly glowing with scarlet color.
"You gave her hope to live, but as you said, this hope was false from the beginning and will never be realized." After saying that, Kane put Vera down.<
/p>
Vera sat slumped on the ground, looking at the stone slab in front of him. He lowered his head deeply, his face wrinkled, and scarlet things overflowed from his eye sockets.
Scarlet things fell on the stone slab, making a series of crisp sounds. They were tiny blood-colored crystals.
Death knights don't shed tears. They are already numb and don't even have any emotions at all.
Only when death knights are extremely sad, a blood-colored crystal will overflow from their eyes, which is called the blood tears of death knights. In the Freelance Chamber of Commerce, this extremely precious thing can be sold for a sky-high price.
Looking at Vera in front of him, Kane fell into silence for a moment, and together with Vera, they mourned for the sleeping person under the stone slab.
After a long time, seeing that Vera still showed no signs of improvement, and the blood and tears accumulated under him almost submerged the entire stone slab, Kane couldn't help but give words of advice:
"I heard that the mage on the snow mountain has a spell that can resurrect the dead. It is not like resurrecting undead creatures, but it allows the dead to be truly reborn. If you feel pain, feel sorry for yourself, or have some words, you want to
Tell Jane personally, don’t let this sink in. At least now, you still have a glimmer of hope.”
"It's useless..." Vera sighed deeply, "I know... the kind of magic you are talking about. It is the most top-notch magic sealed in the magic guild... I can't learn it, and there is no mage.
, will cast this spell for me."
"Although you don't have this ability, you can't help others without it." Kane said solemnly, "Have you forgotten Rhodes? If you complete his mission and transform all the creatures in the entire ocean, maybe he will
Will be willing to help you."
Hearing what Kane said, a glimmer of hope bloomed in Vera's eyes, but then she became discouraged: "Even the powerful Lord Rhodes may not necessarily know this kind of magic. He can only transform undead creatures." "That's not necessarily true." Kane mused, "You can't use the standards of ordinary necromancers to measure Rhodes. Apart from him, have you ever seen any necromancer set his sights on this vast ocean?
And the treasures on his body, you should know better than me."
Seeing what Kane said, Vera was excited, and the hope of resurrecting Jane really emerged in her heart. In Vera's impression, Rhodes was the holder of two artifacts. Compared with getting the real artifact, resurrecting Jane was more difficult.
Not too difficult, right?
"I'm just a death knight under Rhodes. Will he resurrect Jane for me..." Vera still hesitated.
"I don't know, but this is your only hope, isn't it? I also need to complete the tasks he assigned before I can gain true freedom." Kane sighed.
Hearing Kane's words, Vera looked at the stone slabs on the ground again. This time, Vera had found his answer.
"Isn't it just the creatures in the entire ocean? Jane, wait for me...I will definitely let you come back..." Vera has already made his decision in his heart.
Rhodes once marveled in admiration. The strong aura of the Devourer of the Undead really bloomed from Vera at this moment, and it also contained the will of Vera, which is the will that only true heroes can possess.
