In fact, it wasn't a Lich. It was a dead human instead. Even though Liches were also dead, there were significant differences between them.

It was a corpse of a young lady laid who appeared to be 17 years old and with an adorable face. It seemed as though due to malnourishment, she had become sickly in appearance and her ashen, stiff body proved that she was dead for a long time. Strangely enough, she didn't rot and her corpse was still in perfect condition. At this moment, everyone crowded around and was astonished.

"Sir Overlord, is this a… Lich?"
