Although they are all refreshed characters, their models are different, so their appearances are naturally different as well.

After Naim sized up the other party, the other party had already received the general knowledge.

"I am one of the top experts in Silver City. Do you want to come with me? I will train you." With a wave of his hand, a large number of cards were summoned in a coordinated attack, revealing his strength.

For these newly added newborns, simplicity and directness are needed.

Aside from the common sense they have been systematically instilled in them, they lack any sense of human relationships or social skills.

The woman seemed to recall some common sense, and after roughly analyzing Nemes's words, she immediately nodded.

For someone like her who is a "refresher," the best fate is to be noticed by a certain force because of their talent and thus recruited as a talent pool.

Of course, judging from her model, it's more likely that she was taken in by some leader and became his concubine.

Therefore, when faced with Nemes's offer to recruit her, she immediately agreed after reviewing common sense.

“Then come with me, and I’ll show you a wider world,” Nemus said.

The woman nodded, then followed behind Nems and introduced herself.

Her name is Donna.

Donna followed Nems and was soon taken back to Cat Sister's territory.

After that, he began to receive Nemus's education on the Silver City and to learn arcane arts.

During this period, the secret arts lineage seemed to have received the message and took the initiative to come to us.

They worship Nemes as the Lord of the Secret Source.

They began by handing over all the knowledge and heritage of the arcane lineage, and then united around Nemus.

At first, they explained some things related to secret techniques.

Then soon, it became these people following Nems and learning from him.

Within the arcane lineage, there were still some old-timers who believed that they shouldn't all be drawn into Nemus's embrace so quickly.

They would rather starve to death outside, so that the secret arts lineage would never develop, than submit to someone of unknown identity like Nemus.

Then, very quickly, they started to find it delicious.

The secret techniques that Nemus possessed were truly astonishing.

They can always make them understand the nature of the spellcasting materials in the shortest possible time.

Once they understand this, they won't need as many spellcasting materials, and they can even reuse them.

Nemus basically iterated the arcane technique three to five times.

The most important point is that these three to five iterations are still understandable to them.

If you can't understand it, then you have no idea how advanced it is.

Four days later, when the phantom and Emerson emerged from the Path of Despair, they happened to run into Moro, who was also emerging from the Path of Despair.

Moro's expression was not good; the grain owner's men had informed him of the failed attack on Nems.

At the same time, even worse news arrived.

It is said that the person he had been looking for appeared with Nems.

"Dona..." Moro clenched his fists, feeling an unusual surge of anger.

Because she was the love of his life!

Chapter 750 Unfulfilled Desire

Before Moro awakened his talent, he was a lowly person, rather than a slave or food for others. He even got a chance to become a card user through some effort and luck.

To a large extent, it was because of Donna.

The first person he saw when he first respawned was Dona.

Donna believes that these newly spawned people need to unite, because only in this way can more people survive.

So Donna founded the House of Happiness, bringing together some newly refreshed people to make ends meet.

At that time, Dona was just one step away from becoming a card user.

She always kept her face covered and never showed herself in public.

But she also once took off her veil and smiled as she told Morro that she would definitely succeed, and then walk together with her happy family, so that everyone could have a good life.

Donna ultimately failed. A small faction discovered a large number of piglets there, and she couldn't hold out any longer, being killed in the ensuing struggle.

The days at the House of Happiness were the happiest days of Morro's life, and he always remembered Donna's kindness.

He had also secretly vowed to become strong and build a happy home with Donna.

Unfortunately, everything changed in the end.

Donna died, and although Moro escaped, he also became a member of the lower class.

After he became the 'savior', he kept arranging for people to search for Donna's whereabouts after her rebirth.

Although the refreshed Dona looks like Dona and her personality may be the same as before, if there were no reincarnation mechanism to attach memories, she might not be the same person anymore.

But Morro stubbornly believes that Donna must be his Donna.

That's right, Moro wants to possess Dona just as he wants to possess the city lord.

That's just how Morro is. He doesn't have Donna's altruistic nature; all he ever wants is to possess other people.

"What did you promise me? You said you would definitely find Miss Dona, and that's why I spared your life!!" Moro glared furiously at the person kneeling before him.

This person was none other than the leader of the small faction that had raided the Happy Family back then.

He knelt before Moro, tears streaming down his face.

“We did find Miss Donna right after she respawned, but at that time, Nemus was nearby and immediately invited Miss Donna.”

"We...we had no choice, Lord Moro!!"

"Why don't you punish me? I did something wrong and messed everything up. Although it's all that Nemus's fault, I just didn't fulfill Lord Moro's request!" the little chieftain cried out, seemingly very sincere.

However, anyone with a little experience knows that when someone is crying their eyes out, their speech will not be so clear.

However, Moro seemed to fall for it; he chose to forgive the young chieftain, but then couldn't help feeling a headache.

With this headache, Moro couldn't help but touch his cheek.

Although it had long since healed, Moro could still feel a sword mark there.

Fearing the impending change, he abandoned any thought of staying and immediately set off to find the city lord.

Although he felt embarrassed, he wanted to rely on the city lord to get Dona back.

It also implies a desire to seek refuge.

According to the information from the grain owner, the illusory figure's betrayal was the key to the failure of this ambush.

Therefore, Moro felt that Nems could retaliate against him at any time.

At times like these, it's safer to stay by the city lord's side.

However, there wasn't much fear involved, because Moro had already advanced to the Silver rank and acquired some Silver cards, with most of his cards having been upgraded.

As for Nemus, in his understanding, he was already a Silver-ranked individual before. This time, entering the Path of Despair, he could at most successfully reset his stats, but his strength would not increase much.

"If they really come for revenge, I won't lose!" Moro gradually gained confidence.

With this in mind, Moro quickly led his men to find the city lord.

According to the intelligence he has obtained so far, Donna was probably taken away by Nemus and is being trained as a talent for the arcane lineage.

"What kind of secret arts lineage is this? It has absolutely no potential." Moro felt a wave of displeasure.

Donna was clearly a wizard before.

She was led astray by Nems.

He had to interrupt her as soon as possible, otherwise it would be too late once Donna had condensed the core cards of the arcane technique.

Half an hour later, Moro looked at the city lord somewhat embarrassedly, rubbed his nose, and said that he did this to repay a debt of gratitude.

"Nemus is definitely not a good person. Donna will not have a good future if she follows him."

"Are you sure?" The city lord looked at Moro, his eyes seemingly able to see right through him.

Moro met those eyes with complete composure.

Because he genuinely believed that.

If he is the savior, then he is the most perfect and best person in this Silver City.

Since that's the case, then following him and becoming his woman is naturally the best future and a blessing.

Therefore, in Moro's heart, he wanted to take over the city lord and bring Dona back to his side. Even if he had his own desires, they were all legitimate and for their own good.

“Of course!” Moro nodded.

"Alright, I'll be your middleman then," the city lord said, whether with a sigh or a sigh of relief.

This particular incident involving the undead was especially bizarre, occurring forty years earlier than usual.

If things go wrong, the entire Silver City could be destroyed.

However, at this crucial moment, Moro, instead of focusing all his energy on increasing his strength, was indulging in these romantic entanglements.

However, the city lord also knew that in addition to physical strength, a person's power also requires internal factors, namely the power of the heart.

Perhaps Donna could become the inner cause of Morro.

Only then did they agree to Morro's request.

Upon hearing this, Moro immediately smiled, thanked the city lord, and felt both nervous and expectant.

Such "talent snatching" incidents happen quite frequently in Silver City.

Even job-hopping is frequent.

There is a high frequency of personnel movement between various factions.

Donna is just a newly refreshed character and doesn't have much value.

In this situation, if the city lord intervenes, there's a high probability he can get the person back.

Nems couldn't possibly know the future, and there's absolutely no way he could know about his relationship with Donna.

Therefore, even if he had previously sent people to ambush him, he would most likely not refuse the city lord because of this.

It shouldn't be long before Donna returns to his side.

Moro was filled with anticipation.

He used to look up to Donna, but now it's finally his turn to take care of her.

As expected, the city lord failed.

"How could it have failed?!" Moro questioned, his face extremely grim.

Upon hearing this question, the city lord narrowed his eyes.

Chapter 751 Strike at the Heart

Moro immediately noticed this, and the relatively ferocious expression on his face changed slightly.

"How could Nemus do this?!" He shifted his focus, directing his previous emotions toward Nemus, who was not present, in order to gloss over his earlier disrespect towards the city lord.

The city lord did not reply.

"Did Nemes threaten Donna, or did he realize that I wanted to... bring Donna back?" Moro asked.

"It's because Donna doesn't want to come." The city lord shook his head and said, "After the refresh, the person is only similar, not the same person as before."

"Even for me, although I have many memories of my past life, those are just past lives. I have already changed."

“She has been refreshed and is no longer the same person as before,” the city lord said.

Upon hearing these words, Moro suddenly became agitated. He paced back and forth, muttering to himself.

“How could she not want to? She couldn’t possibly not want to.” Moro was acting strangely. “Impossible. It must be because I didn’t appear in front of Donna.”
