Chapter 38: Paladin Hart

"Damn Holy Light."

After getting off the car, Gu Xi looked up at Westminster Abbey and silently muttered a curse.

It's not that he dislikes the Holy Light, but as a necromancer, he is naturally opposed to anything related to the Holy Light.

After all, one deals with negative energy and the other with positive energy. If they can stand together without clashing, it's already a good thing.

Peaceful interaction is simply impossible.

Moreover, Westminster Abbey also serves as a cemetery.

Gu Xi hesitated for a moment, then turned around to leave.

At the moment Gu Xi turned around, he noticed a man in golden heavy armor standing behind him without him realizing it.

As he turned, he found himself face to face with this man.

The man had long blond hair and a stylish mustache, making him look more like a noble.

However, the strong Holy Light aura he exuded couldn't be faked. At first glance, Gu Xi judged that this man was at least a level 5 paladin.

"What is a necromancer doing here?"

Faced with these unkind words, Gu Xi had no intention of getting along with him.

"So what if a paladin cares so much? Is this your home?"

The man pointed behind him at Westminster Abbey, "It actually is my home."

"Fine, is there any rule that necromancers can't come here?"

Gu Xi glanced around and noticed some white-robed priests walking nearby.

"There's no such rule, but many heroic spirits are resting inside and outside the abbey, so necromancers are not welcome."

"Fine, I won't go inside. Can I just look around outside?"

The man was taken aback for a moment, finding this statement oddly familiar.

"No, you must leave now. Don't make me use force."

"Wait, don't be hasty. I'm not here to cause trouble. You know I'm a necromancer. I recently encountered a spirit who discovered his body had been moved and couldn't find his grave.

You should understand what I'm saying. So, I'm here to investigate and see if I can find his grave."

Gu Xi quickly made up an excuse.

The man looked at Gu Xi for a long time, then retracted his aura. "Let's talk outside the square. Don't stand here."

Gu Xi reluctantly glanced at Westminster Abbey, knowing he had no chance of entering now.

So he had no choice but to follow the man away from the large square in front of Westminster Abbey.

Fortunately, this man did not show any hostility towards Gu Xi because of his identity.

In his view, both paladins and necromancers chose different paths due to their inherent traits, without opposition or distinction.

As long as Gu Xi had no intention of attacking Westminster Abbey or stealing the souls or bodies of the heroic spirits stored there, there was no need for any conflict between them.

So when he saw Gu Xi willing to follow him away from the square, he even developed some goodwill towards Gu Xi.

"You can call me Sir Hart, a level 5 paladin of Westminster Abbey."
