The necromancer just wants to plant trees.

Chapter 32 The Birth of Evil

……

"Moonfire: Guide a beam of moonlight to attack the target, causing a fixed amount of damage when it hits, and will continue to cause moonlight burning damage for 15 seconds afterwards;
When you use Moonfire in the moonlight, the damage done is doubled;
Moonfire cannot cause damage to constructed life;

This spell deals an additional 100% damage to undead creatures..."

……

Matthew pinched a magic straw man and tested the damage of the Moonfire spell indoors and outdoors. It can only be said to be a bit touching.

"The double damage of the moonlight blessing is only equivalent to a level 5-6 spell. Without moonlight, it is pure scraping; although the believer badge has the ability to release moonlight, it can deal ideal damage in most cases, but it is still too soft. "

Matthew wasn't very happy with the spell.

The few advantages of Moonfire are that it consumes less mana, the burn effect has certain tactical significance, and... looks good?

"Restraining undead creatures is also an advantage."

Matthew comforted himself.

In fact, he didn't expect much from the spells bestowed by the Moonlight Goddess. He is a god, not a mage, and his spell level may not be as good as some fourth- and fifth-level mages.

The advantage of gods is that they can simulate spells with divine magic.

However, after the ascension of the Tianlun Palace, they were no longer able to cast their magic to the world.

Matthew thought that this Moonfire Art should have been a divine art imitated by the Moonlight Goddess at first, but it was inconvenient to give it to the few believers later, so he reluctantly changed it and sent it down.

Think about it this way.

He is also quite sad now, no wonder his posture is so low.

"However, the low profile of the Moon Goddess may have existed in the Age of Enlightenment. Her priesthood is only very narrow "Moonlight", which means that someone has taken away the other powers of the "Moon", and she can only swallow her anger and suffer in her own field." Hard work. "

Matthew wiped the believer's badge and thought casually:
"But Ella once mentioned that the Moon Obscure Forest had a period of glory. Could it be that he also had complete authority over the moon?"

But none of this mattered.

Matthew quickly walked back to the hut, and politely sang:
"Praise the moonlight!"

……

the next day.

The focus of Matthew's life has returned to reality, especially planting trees. He used the extra time to search for potential Blighters. It is a pity that his divination skills are really stinking. He didn't know why when he was divining "Blighters" I saw a picture of a woman getting out of the bath.

Judging from the architectural style behind her, it is obviously a craftsman's district or a commercial district in Rolling Stone Town.

But that woman was clearly not a Blighter.

Afraid of being perceived as a voyeur, Matthew hurriedly covered the crystal ball with sackcloth.

for a short period of time.

He is not going to do his own divination.

……

The Blighter couldn't be found for a while, but Eli's trace became easier and easier for Matthew to grasp.

He found a time to activate the oak tree domain. Since Eli had resonated with his own domain, as long as he was in the oak forest, Matthew could immediately lock his position.

Judging from what Matthew perceives.

Eli's daily course of action is very monotonous.

looks.

He seemed to be inspecting the woods very seriously.

Matthew observed for a while, then let him go——

My own forest is already Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, with skeletons, necromancers, and corpses. What happened to the many serious druids?
……

Moonlight Forest.

Ella urged Matthew many times to continue sweeping the nest, but Matthew prevaricated them with the reason of "insufficient manpower".

In fact, this reason is not entirely unreasonable.

He lost so many skeleton soldiers, it would be very troublesome to recall them one by one.

And Samantha hasn't been seen since that day.

Matthew reckoned that she was going to sort out the information about Su that she wanted.

The task on the Worm Nest side is really not in a hurry.

Even the goal given by the Moonlight Goddess was to "destroy a Kuangse guard", and Matthew had already exceeded his quota.

As for the "Killing Kuangse" required by the side mission, after learning that the worm nest was related to the Antu Empire, he had already given up the idea of ​​pushing it.

Keep running steadily!
……

Two more things happened during this time:
Matthew took the time to find a dealer who often went to White Rock City and bought 10 Air Element Convergence Runes and a small bottle of ghoul nail powder.

These two things are prepared for the next summoning of zombies;

Another thing is that the private territory transfer promised by Rhaegar was quickly implemented.

Matthew obtained a free land gift document signed by the lord himself from a face-to-face city hall official.

of course.

This matter must never be put on the table.

So under the hint of that official.

Matthew went to Ms. Liz again, who complained that Matthew should have come to pick up the land free lease document.

As such.

On the surface, Matthew just became the lessee of that territory, following the path of Ms. Liz.

Only a few people know.

He is also a landed man!

Liz was quick to do things, and she made good on the promised allowance in full.

When walking out of the city hall.

Matthew, whose pockets were clanging, just felt that life was wonderful.

I just saved Sif once on the way, but was thanked by their father and daughter with heavy gifts.

He felt a little sorry.

For a moment.

There was even an evil thought in the depths of Matthew's heart:
"If only I could do it again!"

soon.

He seriously criticized his evil idea.

"Even if we have to do it again, it can't be Sif. This child has already suffered."

"Uh, if it's Rhaegar, it's not impossible to save it once."

……

that's it.

The time came five days later.

evening.

In the oak forest.

Matthew walked leisurely back to the hut with his sack and shovel on his shoulders.

When within 50 meters from the chalet.

His domain suddenly triggered automatically!
"The big guy is coming!"

There were oaks whispering to him.

Matthew turned west.

A figure rushed over.

He rushed in front of Matthew, paused, and then asked in a particularly uncomfortable tone:
"In your forest, it's fine if there are no animals, why don't you even have berries?!"

Eli glared.

Matthew thought about it:
"Maybe it's because it's an oak forest?"

Eli's dissatisfaction intensified:

"That's not what I meant. Of course I know it's an oak forest, but why are there only oak trees in the forest and no other plants?"

Matthew put down his shovel and explained kindly:
"That's right, Mr. Eli, this forest is newly opened by me. I'm not a forest expert myself. I can only plant oak trees now."

Eli showed an incredulous expression.

Immediately, he sneered:
"It really fits my understanding of necromancers. How can there be only one kind of tree—forget it, I don't want to talk to you about it today. You know, shapeshifters like me often need a lot of meat Replenish energy. Of course, the series of spells I have mastered can also ensure that I can feed myself with a small amount of berries, but the problem is, you have nothing here!"

When Matthew heard the words, he showed a suddenly realized expression.

He just said, what is Eli running around in the woods these days when he has nothing to do!

They were looking for something to eat?
"So, you have been hungry for five full days?"

Matthew asked quickly.

"Four days!"

Eli showed a cold expression of disdain to talk to Matthew:
"On the third day I couldn't help it, went to the farm next door and stole a chicken, but I can't do much of this kind of thing, and it's on you, Matthew, I'm guarding the woods for you! "

Guard the woods for yourself?
Matthew thought for a while, and the cause and effect were connected.

"It seems that he wants to repay me for my enlightenment in his field."

Matthew suddenly changed his mind about Eli a lot.

"In that case, Mr. Eli, go to my place and have a meal together."

He sent an invitation.

"I'm not eating with a necromancer! I'm here, but you have to give me some food."

Eli's attitude still looks stinky and hard.

Matthew didn't care.

"In this case, I can only give you this first."

The magical bag presented by Sif happened to produce a large batch of biscuits.

Matthew handed it over.

Eli took the biscuit and smelled it, then chewed eagerly.

Matthew smiled.

Turned around and went back to the house for dinner.

After dinner.

He found Eli still in place.

So he took the initiative to say hello and said:
"What's the matter, Mr. Eli, are you not full?"

Eli glanced at him:
"I'm full, thank you."

His tone was still hard.

After speaking, he glanced at Matthew's cabin:

"What did you eat just now?"

Matthew sipped the grease on his lips:

"A light meal."

"Really? I smell sausage."

Eli looked at him suspiciously.

Matthew changed the subject:

"So, the reason why your Excellency stays in my woods is to repay me for a little help I inadvertently gave you? If this is the case, it is actually unnecessary, because it was just an accident. Mansha provides enlightenment in the field, and you can comprehend it purely because of your amazing talent."

Heard Matthew mention Samantha.

The veins on Eli's forehead twitched.

It took him a lot of effort to hold back the attack:
"I have a ruler in my heart. I won't leave until I pay off what I owe you."

"Don't underestimate me, we Druids are the real kings of the jungle. If I didn't protect the forest for you, these oak trees would have been destroyed by the evil blighter!"

Matthew laughed.

He had wanted to tell Eli that he didn't owe him anything.

But looking at Eli's proud face, Matthew swallowed his words.

So he nodded and said:

"If you want to stay, of course you can. Please do whatever you want. In terms of food, I will ask someone to prepare one for you. What do you usually like to eat?"

As he spoke, he actually took out a pen and paper, as if preparing to record.

The corner of Eli's mouth trembled:
"No, the biscuits just now will do."

Matthew laughed and said:

"Biscuits or sausage?"

Eli hesitated:
"That's still a sausage."

"Do you want anything else? Like drinks or something?"

Matthew asked again.

Eli shook his head decisively:

"No need."

"Milk or coffee?"

Matthew didn't seem to hear him.

"Uh, milk."

Elio replied somewhat unnaturally.

"Then, from tomorrow morning, you can come to me here before I start planting trees, and I will give you the food for the day."

Matthew lowered his head and scribbled down a few lines.

Look at his serious look.

Eli suddenly had this idea in his heart:
"Are all the employees under him so good?"

"No, damn it! I'm not an employee of this necromancer!"

He looked up fiercely.

But he was surprised to find that Matthew had already greeted him and walked away.

……

As night fell, everything was silent.

After finishing today's meditation, Matthew pushed the door out.

The moonlight was bright outside.

Eli was sitting under an oak tree not far away, staring blankly at the moon.

Matthew didn't greet him.

Go straight to the northwest.

However soon.

Footsteps came from behind him.

"What are you going to do in the middle of the night? Necromancer."

Eli asked from a distance behind.

"A little personal matter."

Matthew responded succinctly:
"You'd better not come with me."

This statement came out.

Eli seemed more interested.

He quickly followed, keeping pace with Matthew:
"What kind of bad things need to be kept from me?"

Matthew glanced at him:
"It's not something I need to hide from you, I just think it would be a bit sacrilegious to summon a zombie in front of a druid."

Eli's first reaction when he heard the words was, "You've already done something to blaspheme Samantha in front of me!"

Then he realized what Matthew was about to do.

"How dare you summon zombies in the oak forest?!"

The anger gauge in the corner of Eli's eyes seems to be full again:
"This is a natural domain, a sacred place that cannot be defiled!"

Matthew responded slowly:
"If this counts as defilement, then nature has almost been ruined by me."

Eli's temples twitched, he suppressed his anger and looked at Matthew:

"Then aren't you afraid that I will destroy your evil ritual?"

Matthew looked at him meaningfully:

"This is my domain, better not do stupid things, Eli."

As he spoke, he walked to the skeleton dormitory.

Pull the cover off.

Started to transport the corpses outside.

Eli watched the scene with a gloomy face.

He knew that although Matthew seemed to be only at the second level, with the blessing of the Oak Domain, he didn't have much chance of winning;

If you want to sneak attack, then Matthew can activate the domain immediately, and the repulsion of the domain will provide him with enough room to operate; after the domain is opened, not only Matthew will get the right time and place, but Eli, who is a druid, will also be weakened by changes in the environment.

This is the power of the field.

What's more, the necromancer in front of him obviously has a lot of cards hidden.

In the woods these days.

Eli felt a murderous intent more than once.

That feeling and the pressure.

At least Tier [-] rogues can give it to themselves.

"I won't interfere in your ceremony, but I want to witness the birth of evil with my own eyes, and when the favor I owe you is paid off, I will destroy all the evil creatures you summon!"

Eli said grimly.

Matthew ignored him.

He laid out the corpses of the five arsonists in a row in a clearing under the moonlight.

Although I can't tell the reason.

But Necromancers generally believe that summoning zombies under sufficient moonlight will be easier to succeed, and there is also a chance to produce high-quality zombies.

Matthew naturally would rather believe it.

He quickly sprinkled a handful of "Corpse Powder" and a small amount of "Ghoul Nail Powder" evenly on each corpse.

They also put on the "Air Elemental Convergence Rune" that they bought before.

After doing all this.

Matthew began a long chant.

The summoning of the undead takes a long time to cast for the first summoning, but it only takes about 5 minutes at most, but Matthew chanted for a full 12 minutes!

The reason is also very simple.

In the first few minutes, he was paddling and singing—although he was willing to believe in Eli's character, he had to take extra precautions at such critical moments. It wasn't until Eli squatted down impatiently that Matthew began to truly die. call!

in the woodland.

The necromancer's chants rose and fell.

Dark clouds drifted by.

Eli's face flickered.

suddenly.

One of the corpses stood up stiffly!

Followed by.

One after another corpses rose from the ground!

Eli subconsciously jumped up from the ground.

Available in the next second.

He was surprised to perceive—the surrounding oak forest seemed to come alive!
The night wind blows.

A trace of green light emerged from the oaks.

Finally merged into the bodies of those five zombies!
This scene also surprised Matthew.

He couldn't help looking at the record column.

……

"Reminder: You have successfully completed the Summoning of the Undead (First Time/Zombie)

You get 5 undead creatures (zombies/average level LV7)

……

Your zombies were blessed by the oak tree field at the beginning of their birth, and they received the 'barkskin technique'!
Tree Skin (Passive): Your zombie skin automatically forms a layer of tough ancient tree skin (armor +3), and provides a certain amount of damage reduction when suffering damage."

……

Zombies who know tree skin?
Matthew was stunned.

He just wanted to take a closer look at the data of the zombie boys.

Right now.

Mutation reborn.

A strong moonlight shone down.

Five zombies bathed in moonlight.

Their bodies seem to be undergoing a wonderful transformation.
