Not long ago, after Tamik left the prison, North, who stayed in the prison, covered his head and sat alone in the corner.
"How could..." He murmured, his eyes dimming.
After learning the news about Leah, he felt a little regretful.
Maybe relying on the power of the Realm of the Dead, he could make Leah feel better when she was in pain, but what was more likely to happen was that the Realm of the Dead directly turned her into a skeleton, and he couldn't even see Leah's face.
.
"I can feel that you are in pain for someone."
In the prison where he was alone, another voice suddenly came.
A strange man was standing in front of him. The man was wearing a white formal suit and was incompatible with the entire Diya environment.
North raised his head, stared at the man, and asked: "Who are you? Why are you following me?"
"I think you should know the answer." The man shook his head and answered calmly.
"You mean...you are Erich? Impossible, he is obviously a lich..." North said in disbelief.
"You have seen my memory, you know what kind of person I am." The man in white replied.
"Why are you hanging on to me? Get out of my sight quickly!"
Looking at the man, it was clear that there was no powerful aura coming from him, but North felt a sense of fear for no reason, as if what was appearing in front of him was something extremely terrifying.
As he spoke, driven by this fear, North raised his hand and released a series of lightning bolts, striking towards the man in white.
After a burst of explosions, the man in white walked out of the smoke intact. Lightning passed directly through his body and hit the ground in the distance.
"I'm sorry to bother you." Seeing this, the man in white took the initiative to say, "But this was not my intention. It was you who woke me up. If you want me to leave, you need to return the things that did not belong to you."<
/p>
"That's impossible!" Hearing what the man in white said, North covered his arm hard, "That's my power. I gave up a lot of things for this power. I can't give it to anyone."
People!"
The man in white nodded, not surprised by North's choice: "I understand your choice, North."
"Don't call my name, you hateful monster!" North gritted his teeth.
North, who has seen the memory of the lich, deeply understands that his terror is far beyond what ordinary power can defeat. In addition, the lich named Erich has all kinds of incredible powers.
Strength.
Seeing North's resistant attitude, the man in white sighed, raised his head slightly, and looked at the empty top of his head:
"You have seen my memory, and I have seen yours, but I still can't understand your choice. I want to ask you to use all your accumulated experience to answer me, why do people suffer?"
North fell into silence. Seeing that the man in white did not make any other moves, but just looked at him quietly, he cautiously replied: "Because they don't have enough strength to deal with everything they have experienced, this happened."
All kinds of misfortunes are the sufferings in your mouth."
"What about you?" The man in white asked, "You already have legendary strength, why do you still feel pain?"
"Because... even legendary power is still not enough. There are also a lot of legendary creatures in this world."
Speaking of this, North paused and thought of the power that belonged to Lord Rhodes. If he had that kind of power, I'm afraid many things would be different.
"Really?" The man in white glanced at North doubtfully, "But in my opinion, the suffering you have suffered has nothing to do with strength. It all stems from the sinful nature in your heart, no matter how powerful it is.
No amount of power can change it."
"I didn't do anything wrong!" The words of the man in white seemed to hit the pain point in North's heart, and he gritted his teeth.
"It is not an unspeakable thing to admit the sinful nature in your heart. Each of us is like this, and we have been sinners since the beginning of our birth..." the man in white replied.
"What does that have to do with you? You are just a lich who has been dead for who knows how long!" Finally, North couldn't suppress the anger in his heart. He forgot his fear of the man in white, and his tone became urgent.<
/p>
The man in white was not angry at all, but stretched out his hand to him: "Because I will save you."
"Save...me?" North glanced at him in surprise.
"Yes." The man in white nodded, with a firm tone and persistent eyes, "I will take away your pain and help you make up for all the mistakes you have made."
Hearing what he said, North showed a vigilant expression: "Your words sound like what the devil said when tempting people. What do I need to pay? Do you want my soul?"
"You don't have to pay anything. You just need to bring me to a place and you can get it all." The man in white replied.
"Do you know what mistakes I made?" North's figure trembled and he asked quickly.
"Of course I know, I know everything you have done." The man in white nodded, "When everything is completed, I will let you see the person you miss and your child."
p>
"How could you do this?" After hearing what he said, North immediately questioned, "Tamik told me that ordinary people cannot give birth to living babies after being eroded by the energy of death..."
The man in white looked into his eyes and said, "Believe me, North."
"How do I know you're not lying?"
When North heard the man in white's proposal, his heart beat a few times. Of course he knew what the man in white meant.
Even so, he did not believe it immediately, for no other reason than that the conditions given by the man in white were so good that he began to doubt whether all this was true?
"I never lie. If you read my memory, you should know that this is true."
This time, North could not find any words to refute. Carefully recalling the memories belonging to Erich, he knew that although Erich was a lich, he had never lied, not even once.
p>
After realizing this, North couldn't help but feel very surprised. Even he himself didn't know how many lies he had told, but as a lich, Erich never said it once. This was undoubtedly unusual.
matter.
While North was talking to the man in white, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the distance.
Accompanying the sound of footsteps was a surge of momentum, and North could feel it, which was full of murderous intent.
