The necromancer just wants to plant trees.

Chapter 449 The call of beast and the opening of paradise lost!
……

The rootless river.

It is also called the Mother River.

It is one of the most mysterious and ancient rivers in the multiverse. It is rumored that the ultimate secret of life and death is buried in that river.

The Rootless River is even less visited by humans than the Sea of ​​Trees of All Worlds.

Even among the powerful divine mages.

Only Lind had enough opportunities to get a glimpse of this secret place.

And the soul imprint of Hibbert's daughter, whom Matthew had met before, the girl who was born from the Deep Dive Project and had a close relationship with the magic goddess Ye Li, was also extracted from that river.

That is the origin and destination of life.

It is one of the four most important parts after the split of the Twin Heavens.

In Matthew's opinion.

The Rootless River is at least on the same level as Paradise Lost, and its influence is even many times greater than Paradise Lost!
In the main material world.

It's hard to find any traces of the Rootless River.

Matthew didn't know whether it was because the Mother of the Black Dragon had great opportunity and fortune, or because the country of the Thorn Flower Sword was rather special.

But the news was enough to attract his attention.

"If I want to go to the Sword of Thorn Blossom, where should I enter?"

Matthew asked.

Aldessia answered immediately:
"We need to pass through a valley crack in the north of the City of Order. It is a long journey and will take at least half a day on foot."

"But the crack has become unstable recently. According to our observations, this is because the Thorn Flower Sword is about to merge with the realm of the main object."

"In the near future, a vast expanse of land with spring-like weather all year round will appear on the plains northeast of the City of Order.

There were signs of this happening long ago.

About twenty years ago, merchants traveling between the City of Order, Canning, and the City of Sword Winter discovered that the time they spent on each journey was slowly increasing.

The initial round trip took eight days.

Eventually it took a full twenty days!

The distance they could sense did not actually change, it was just that the ground beneath their feet was slowly being torn apart.

This was an incomprehensible anomaly in the old days.

But for the new era, this should become one of the common sights..."

"When that time comes, if you want to go to the Thorn Flower Sword, you only need to go to the North."

Matthew nodded slightly.

The promotion of the secondary plane is inevitably accompanied by its fusion with the main material world.

Otherwise, those powerful saints will not be able to maintain stability in the true legendary realm for a long time.

Just as Aldessia said.

The Sword of Thorn Blossom is not an isolated case. In the future, more and more powerful secondary planes will be integrated into Eindor.

This change is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the secondary plane.

But isn't it the same for the people of Aindo?
Matthew's mind gradually became active.

The continent of Iendor is about to face even stronger impacts, not only from the outer planes, but also from the sub-planes surrounding the material world.

In an era when the old order is broken.

Violent collisions are inevitable.

By then, more and more powerful people will emerge, which may break the monopoly of Master Aindo.

He could almost foresee that turbulent era!

And any changes.

All of this means there are opportunities.

Matthew subconsciously clenched his fists, intending to hold on tightly.

But at this time.

There was a hard touch beneath my body——

I found something good!

Matthew turned his attention back to little Ingram's body. It was a steel brace!

……

"Call of the Beast (Strange Weapon): After wearing this brace, you can activate the beast in you at any time.

When your animal nature is activated, your neck, jaw, and head will undergo drastic changes.

You will have a bloody mouth that only a top predator can have.

You can use your teeth to easily tear through your enemy's armor and clothing, then tear the enemy into pieces.

special.

While you are wearing this mouthpiece, you can use the "language of beasts" to communicate deeply with all beastly units.

Note 1: Wearing this brace for a long time may cause oral ulcers.

Note 2: Wearing this brace does not affect spellcasting.

Note 3: When the animality in you is completely consumed, you will not be able to activate the special functions of this brace. "

……

interesting.

Matthew took a look and found that the braces were almost new, even at the elemental level.

This shows that Ingram Jr. was never used at all.

Matthew guessed that maybe he thought this thing was not beautiful enough?
In his opinion.

This is a small piece of equipment that can bring about a surprise victory. Wearing the braces does not affect spellcasting, and it can consume the long-accumulated animal nature at any time. It feels like a very valuable equipment.

He kept the braces close to his body and would use them after he had studied them thoroughly.

Except for braces.

Little Ingram also left behind many things——

First there are books.

Matthew found a large number of books in his personal belongings, most of which were heroic biographies and adventure books, and some were social science books on the humanities, geography, astrology, history, etc. of the North.

It contains information on almost every city-state in the North.

This shows Ingram's ambition.

These books were also of great use to Matthew, so he did not miss any of them.

The second is gold coins.

Little Ingram had more than 40 gold coins on him, which was a huge sum of money for ordinary people.

But for Matthew now, it can only be described as average.

Next came the shroud with powerful insulating properties and two woven pockets.

Matthew tried.

This strange shroud not only has the ability to block perception, but also has the effect of truly isolating space.

As long as you put it on, it can completely achieve a super strong invisibility effect, and it is suspected that it can also be immune to spell lock;
As for the other two woven pockets, the white one contained more than a dozen elemental creatures that could be summoned at any time, but the levels of these elemental creatures were very low.

The other flesh-colored pocket was filled with many cattle and sheep, and the important thing is, they were all alive!

This was the first time Matthew had seen a storage device that could hold living things. Its functions were no less than or even exceeded those of most demiplanes!

Finally, there is little Ingram's clothes.

The quality of this robe is very good. It has the maximum elemental resistance, can increase the casting speed, and has life-saving spells such as "Light Body" and "Teleportation". Most importantly, this thing adds a lot of charm!
Matthew naturally accepted them all with a smile.

And apart from that.

Matthew also found a very delicate storage bracelet next to little Ingram's body.

Generally speaking.

Storage items and the things inside them will flow into the void after their owner dies, leaving behind at most a dimensional capsule that can be opened.

But this storage bracelet was preserved intact.

Matthew tried it.

Found that it cannot be opened.

This shows that the real owner of the bracelet is not little Ingram, but someone else.

"Little Ingram once told me that this is their family's heirloom bracelet. Only when he truly ascends to the position of patriarch can he gain full control of it."

Aldessia came over:
"This bracelet has magic coordinates. If you hold it, I'm afraid the other members of the Ingram family will keep coming to trouble you."

Matthew's eyes lit up:
"Is there such a good thing?"

The Mother of Black Dragon was stunned for a moment, and then fell into a long silence.

Of course Matthew would not give up the bracelet.

He had used his psychic flashlight to look inside before, and there was at least one artifact inside.

Although this storage device is quite difficult to crack.

But that’s what Matthew lacks the most.

A friend who is good at all kinds of magical abilities.

"With Richard's skills, opening a bracelet shouldn't be a problem..."

Matthew thought so.

Then he counted little Ingram's props again and put them away one by one in front of Aldessia.

Just at this time.

Aldessia stopped him and reminded:

"You put it in the wrong place."

"This brace is not a weapon."

Now it was Matthew's turn to be stunned:
"what is that?"

Aldessia blushed:
"It is said to be a sex tool."

"I heard it accidentally too."

"none of my business."

Matthew couldn't help but gasp.

ha?
What kind of person is interested in braces and animal heads?

He scratched his head.

Suddenly I lost all interest in it.

But it’s a pity to just throw it away like this.

suddenly.

Matthew took out the president's badge on a whim, and tried to summon the shared wizard's hand, and it actually worked!
So he stuffed the braces into the guild warehouse.

Unfortunately.

Matthew couldn't see the chat room channel, probably because the chat system didn't cover the Bloodthirsty Mountain demiplane.

"But why is it possible to share the Hand of the Mage?"

"so amazing……"

"I'll have to ask Fei Liwen later!"

Matthew threw all the unused items into the guild warehouse.

Then he stood up.

He wanted to use the necromancy to push little Ingram's head back.

Unfortunately, I tried several times and failed.

finally.

Matthew could only take little Ingram's head for his own use.

Aldessia looked at Matthew and the two undead beside him——

On the left is Ingram the Headless;

On the right is Leon the Hollow;
A feeling of relief suddenly welled up in her heart.

Compared to the other two.

My ending is almost the luckiest one!

She knew very well why Matthew treated her differently——

That is the Black Dragon Legion.

But at the same time.

She also realized that she had to improve the value of her existence, otherwise the secrets of the black dragons would not be enough to satisfy the appetite of the necromancer.

Her already low status would be in jeopardy.

Aldessia is very adaptable.

soon.

She got into character:
"We must find a way to please our master!"

"He doesn't seem to like my humble and submissive state very much..."

"Could it be that he likes to be reluctant but willing?"

Think so.

The gentle and well-behaved expression on her face suddenly turned cold and arrogant.

The look he gave Matthew was filled with the same disdain as before.

There is an unyielding temperament that refuses to surrender even at death.

To her secret delight...

Ever since his temperament and demeanor changed, Matthew looked at her more often and closely than before!

This change greatly encouraged Aldessia!

"He really likes this... What's next? Will he conquer me forcefully?"

Her heart was pounding, but she couldn't help but hum softly on the surface.

Matthew looked at her again.

But what she said was beyond Ordesia's expectations:
"Do you have a problem with me?"

Aldessia pursed her lips and decided to be bolder. Her expression became even colder.
"If you think I'm going to fall in love with you, you're totally wrong!"

However, a trace of regret appeared on Matthew's face:
"I don't expect you to fall in love with me, but there's no need to roll your eyes at me all the time, right?"

"What a pity. I was planning to return this staff to you."

While talking.

He took out the "Abel's Purification Staff" that he had borrowed from Ordesia to play with.

That moment.

Aldessia was filled with regret.

"I……"

She hesitated, wanting to say it, but feeling that saying it would be a waste of all her efforts.

Matthew ignored her thoughts and asked directly:

"What is this staff for?"

Aldessia immediately replied:
"It can instantly remove all negative statuses from a group of targets, and can greatly increase the group's resistance to various supernatural abilities."

Speaking of it.

She paused and said with a complicated tone:

"If you try to instigate my black dragon to rebel, I will have this staff in my hand and you will never succeed so easily!"

Matthew raised an eyebrow noncommittally.

Aldessia said again:
"In addition, the origin of this staff is also very special. It is the weapon of Abel, the first archangel of the Kingdom of Light and Darkness. It is said to be more effective in Paradise Lost."

"To me, it's my mother's legacy..."

talking.

She looked at Matthew eagerly.

Matthew thought thoughtfully:
"Then it must be very important to you?"

Aldessia bit her lip and nodded pitifully.

Matthew immediately comforted:
"Do not worry."

"I'll keep it safe for you!"

talking.

He nodded and left.

Aldessia was so angry that she was shaking all over. She couldn't help but stamp her feet. She was so angry that her teeth were itching, but she could do nothing about it.

But after a few seconds.

The staff emitting starlight suddenly appeared in her hand.

Aldessia looked at the recovered staff with surprise and joy.

Matthew's voice followed:

"Keep it well, and don't let anyone snatch it away again."

"By the way, you do look pretty good when you roll your eyes, but try to roll them less in the future."

"Even if you want to turn it over, it can only be turned over for me, remember?"

that moment.

Great joy welled up in Ordesia's heart.

She cried out excitedly:

"I understand, Master!"

But when she looked up.

Matthew's back was already far away.

She didn't care about anything else, she held on to her staff tightly, and followed the receding figure like a girl.

……

The battle between Terraste and Urmas lasted longer than Matthew had imagined.

One day and one night passed.

The gate that symbolizes the Kingdom of Darkness also showed no signs of opening.

This made Matthew, who was always keeping an eye on the gate, feel a little worried.

"Lao Tai, you must hold on..."

Although I think so.

But Matthew was ready to run.

Once he finds out that it is a Blood Angel coming out of the door, he will immediately escape through the portal that was set up in advance.

It really doesn't work.

He even planned to use the Holy Deer form to forcibly leave this demiplane!
no way.

For a pseudo-legend like Matthew, man-eating monsters like the Blood Angels are still too terrifying.

And in the meantime.

Matthew observed other centaurs appearing near the void turbulence - the first group was a combination of the Faded Dragon and the God Eater Queen.

There are many minions around them.

But Matthew did not see the clone or projection of the End Titan.

Logically they should be together.

The second group is a large group of murlocs.

Led by two deep-sea mages, they acted as a very close group.

However, Matthew did not find the phase assassin he had encountered before, nor did he find any trace of Mira who went to chase him.

The third group is the dragon lich Stephanie and the demon lord Eisner.

There are other people around them.

Matthew didn't dare to get close, he just looked at it from a distance and then left.

Fortunately, they did not get close to where the Eye Demon Sword Master was, otherwise Matthew would have found it a bit tricky.

In short.

Most people in the ancient city of Krafa were attracted by the battle between Terraste and Urmas.

They gathered around here.

Silently waiting for the outcome of the battle.

corresponding.

Matthew also found some of his companions who had been separated before -

In fact, it is the orc swordsman Claire and Roland disguised as Gasliwen.

As for Mosong, the god of travelers.

The two of them didn't know where the other had gone.

for this result.

This was within Matthew's expectations.

He had long known that it was impossible to get this group of people to peacefully carry out a mission together.

These people are all top-level fighters and super talents, and each has their own calculations and ideas.

The only companions Matthew can truly rely on in the Bloodthirsty Mountain are Gasliwen and Terrast, each half of whom can be counted as one.

Only Claire is genuinely believable.

"Come to think of it, there's no need to keep pretending in this situation now."

"Anyway, you have already submitted your loyalty letter to the old elf."

After listening to Matthew's story about his previous experience.

Without a second thought, Loran removed his disguise.

Matthew thought about it and realized that the situation had changed. It didn't matter whether it was Roland or Gasliwen standing next to him.

In fact, Terraste had said this before.

However, ever since Matthew handed the golden ticket to the other party, Roland's disguise became even more unnecessary.

"Your disguise skills are indeed perfect."

Looking at the faces that have become familiar again.

Matthew couldn't help but sigh:

"Before, I couldn't tell whether you were really replaced by Gasliwen..."

Loran laughed:

“That’s my professionalism.”

But Matthew's next question quickly made his smile fade:
"So you really did it with Mo Song?"

"In his golden coach?"

Luo Lan immediately looked grumpy:

"no!"

"I used illusion!"

"I was just trying to fool him, but he came out all of a sudden. It's so fucking disgusting!"

"I didn't know vampires could fuck so fast!"

"I wanted to castrate him!"

"If it weren't for you, I would have forced myself to act out the whole scene, hehe..."

Lorraine looked irritated.

Matthew had no choice but to comfort her again and again.

Then he asked:

"So you think it was Mo Song who saw through your disguise?"

"Or is he weaker than we thought, so he was easily affected by your illusion, huh?"

Luo Lan was angry, but he still acted quite rationally:

"uncertain."

"Theoretically, the God of Travelers is indeed very weak now. He is not much stronger than an ordinary legend."

"But this person has always been known for his cunning and changeable nature in the history of Tianlun Palace. I suspect he just wants to get his hands on me for free..."

"What a bullshit!"

Talking and talking.

He couldn't help but burst into cursing again.

Matthew had no choice but to continue comforting.

aside.

Claire watched in amazement as "Gassiliwen" transformed from a woman into a grown man.

Her face was full of surprise:
"So are you a man or a woman?"

Lorraine shrugged:

"Don't look at me like that. Of course I'm a man."

"I changed into a female form at Matthew's instruction."

"I was just trying to cooperate with his strange habit..."

Matthew scratched his head.

He did not deny it, mainly because Roland was indeed cooperating with him, but the other party's wording was too easy to cause ambiguity.

Not far away, there was a bright light in the beautiful eyes of Ordesia.

At this moment.

Honest Claire couldn't help but look at Matthew:
"So, was it you who instructed him to discuss with me last night how orc women spend their menstrual periods?"

Matthew was shocked.

"of course not!"

He immediately refuted and wanted to pick up Luo Lan and beat him up on the spot to prove his innocence.

However, this had little effect. Not only was Claire's eyes full of distrust, but even Oldesia's eyes had a different ripple.

Fortunately.

The orc female swordsman is an open-minded person after all.

She didn't care about these -

Or.

She had intended to make a fuss about it, but after meeting the Eye Demon Swordmaster who had awakened from his epiphany, Claire stopped caring about those little things.

Matthew took the opportunity to quickly introduce each other.

"Let's compare notes?"

The female orc's eyes showed eagerness to try.

The Eye Demon Sword Saint smiled modestly:
"of course can."

The two of them started working.

There was a crackling sound in the open space at the edge of the market area.

Soon.

Claire was defeated.

"unfair!"

The female swordsman blushed:
"How can you use so many swords!?"

"I only have two knives, but you have hundreds of swords!"

The big head shook his eyeballs innocently:

“Not hundreds.”

"In fact, I have a total of 3,741 swords."

"The ones I just showed you are the three hundred I usually use..."

Claire was completely silent.

She sparred with the Eye Demon Sword Master for a while.

The result was still a complete defeat.

This made her face full of frustration.

"This is unreasonable."

"If you have so many tentacles and they're so long, you can strike at great distances with any weapon and win the fight, so why would you use a sword?"

Claire asked confused.

Unexpectedly, Big Head was stumped by her question.

"Yup!"

"Why should I use a sword?"

For a while.

The Eye Demon Sword Master fell into deep thought.

And the other side.

Claire fell into a similar state.

Seeing the two inheritors of the Sword Saint's way entering the state of selflessness.

Luo Lan couldn't help but yawn:

"See, if you practice sword fighting too much, you'll become a bit neurotic."

"What kind of fool would think such a stupid question!"

While talking.

He set up a chair, sat down, took out the pornographic book and began to read it with great interest.

Matthew continued to silently prepare for the outcome of the battle.

Suddenly.

Luo Lan put down the little yellow book, looked up and asked:

"Matthew, come to think of it, do you still remember the prophecy spell of the great elf king?"

"His original words were - Is the cunning Lord of the Thousand Changes, Gasliwen, among us?"

"We also know that the real Jia Si Li Wen has escaped from prison."

"Do you think there is a possibility that she was really among the group of people at the time, and someone was replaced, but we just don't know it?"

A solemn expression appeared on Matthew's face.

His mind quickly recalled everyone who was present at the time.

At this moment.

Luo Lan suddenly pointed the finger at him:
"Could it be you who was switched?"

"I always feel that you have changed significantly along the way!"

"You also have a smell of decay, which is only possessed by life that was active several generations ago!"

Matthew was stunned by what he said.

Then he couldn't help rolling his eyes:
"How could it be me!"

"Even if Gasliwen wants to attack me, she can't get past the teacher's patron saint!"

Luo Lan showed a look of realization:
"You're right."

"So, if the Great Elf King's divination is correct, then who is the person who was switched?"

Matthew didn't answer.

This Thousand Changes thing is so hateful that there is no way to find any trace of it.

The two fell into silence.

The atmosphere seemed to become a little awkward.

But at this moment, a very subtle voice sounded:

"Squeak!"

Everyone couldn't help but look up -

But the gate of the Kingdom of Darkness was quietly pushed open.

A figure covered in blood staggered out!

Matthew stood up suddenly.

That is--

Terraste!

……

"Hint: Terrast killed the resurrected Blood Angel Urmas and the remnant of the Dark Old God attached to him!"

……

For an instant.

The world behind the door quickly collapsed and destroyed, causing turbulence in the void.

All eyes were focused on Terraste.

He looked very weak.

With every step he took, he coughed up blood.

Without a second thought, Matthew rushed in the direction of Terraste.

Terraste walked with a staggering gait.

He looked badly injured.

The breath in his body also became extremely weak.

When you reach an intersection.

Several fishmen who were lurking in the dark finally couldn't bear it anymore. They suddenly jumped out from the shadows nearby and attacked Terrast!

But at that moment.

Terrast, who was extremely weak just now, suddenly swung his sword twice and cut those fishmen into sashimi!
After swinging the sword.

The old elf, covered in blood, showed an extremely painful expression.

He knelt on one knee, as if he was about to collapse.

Then he took a few steps forward.

When he arrived at a ruin, he staggered and almost fell.

at this time.

Another figure jumped out, taking only the Terrast facade.

For an instant.

The shaky old elf man became vigorous again——

He didn't even use the sword this time. He just raised his finger and the figure's heart was pierced. He fell to the side in miserably.

At this time.

Matthew finally reached him.

Terrast looked at him deeply, then suddenly grabbed Matthew's hand and said in a hoarse voice:
"I'll give you the tickets first!"

next second.

Matthew stared in amazement at the golden ticket that had returned.

Snapped!
There was a crisp sound.

Terraste's body fell limply to the ground.

He looked unconscious.

There were subtle glances from all around.

Matthew's expression also became extremely complicated:

"Lao Tai..."

"You're not going to catch my fish too, are you?"

in his perception.

Terraste had completely fainted.

But he really couldn't be sure that this was a new fishing posture developed by the old guy.

It was the empty city plan that he came up with when he was extremely weak.

Feeling the malice coming from all around.

Matthew gritted his teeth.

I plan to take Terrast away first.

But at this time.

In the distance, another blue-gray beam of light shot up into the sky!

Followed by.

The gate to Paradise Lost in the clouds is completely opened!

A bright light shone on the golden ticket in Matthew's hand, and then illuminated a path leading to the clouds!

……

“Hint: The “mysterious man” found the bronze ticket to Paradise Lost.

All three tickets have appeared, and Paradise Lost is officially open!
Ticket holders please follow the Path of Glory and enter the gate as soon as possible! "

……

That moment.

Matthew felt that the murderous intent pressing upon him solidified into reality.

His breathing became heavier.

But it only took half a second.

Matthew made his decision.

He grabbed the golden ticket tightly, then carried the unconscious Terraste on his back, and then resolutely walked towards the glorious road pointed by the clouds!
……
