The necromancer just wants to plant trees

…

night.

Blood Sand City, East District, Dragon Castle, deep underground.

Huge pillars of fire stand in the deep and vast underground square.

Near the brazier at the top of each fire pillar is a little devil with a burning tail serving him. They hold various sacrifices from mortal bodies in their hands:

Heart, intestines, forearms, brain, lungs, etc.

Every time a low female voice sang from deep in the square.

Then some little devils will quickly throw the sacrifices in their hands into the brazier.

Bang bang bang!

Strips of blue or green purgatory fire emerged from the brazier.

From time to time, some purgatory fire would turn into angry faces and fly out of the brazier.

At this time.

The little devil responsible for serving the brazier will flee to the ground under the fire pillar.

There.

Usually three to five infernal monks sit motionless.

These purgatory monks are not purgatory creatures, but slaves captured by the devils from the outside world.

The devil has always been very good at controlling slaves, and it is common for him to use his own religion to confuse the minds of slaves.

These monks gathered here.

It was because he was bewitched by the big devil of the Sestan family.

They believe that as long as they follow the teachings spread by the big devil, meditate intently, and dedicate a part of themselves at the right time, they will have the opportunity to transform into a real devil and enjoy the same privileges as other devils in the city.

And now.

It's time to give -

The little devil skillfully pulled out a brass knife. He flew among the monks, randomly selected a sallow and skinny one, and then decisively cut open the latter's belly and pulled out a piece of intestines from inside!

Because these purgatory monks practiced vegetarianism or dieting for a long time before performing the sacrificial ceremony.

This resulted in the monk's intestines being very rough and twisted.

The little devil cut off a section with a knife in disgust and threw it into the brazier. Then the angry face slowly disappeared.

And above the ground.

Although the selected Purgatory monk was in extreme pain, his face was full of joy. His eyes were bloodshot and his facial features were distorted. He just kept shouting in the common language of Purgatory:

"I've been chosen!"

"I've been chosen!"

"Ha...ah!"

He didn't wait for a few seconds to get excited.

The little devil serving the brazier kicked him on the back of the head impatiently.

The purgatory monk fainted instantly.

A large amount of blood poured out of his stomach and gradually flowed all over the floor.

When the other monks saw this scene, they did not dare to say anything. They just closed their eyes tightly and silently recited the prayers taught to them by the big devil.

As if doing so could restore their peace of mind.

Time passes minute by minute.

As the braziers on the stone pillars gradually extinguished, the sacrificial ceremony gradually came to an end.

The little devil serving the brazier yawned slightly.

Just then.

He suddenly looked to the right side of the fire pillar in confusion, where a shadow seemed to become a little distorted.

The little devil tilted his head.

The next second.

His vision returned to darkness!

…

"Are these little devils so sensitive?"

Invisibility ball.

Matthew was a little surprised as he looked at the little devil who was being choked by Carmela's hand.

The latter used magic to erase the traces of his struggle.

In the blink of an eye.

The little devil turned into a corpse and was then thrown into Paradise Lost by Matthew.

"Stay farther away, you should be able to go that way!"

Not far away.

Luo Lan, who was in charge of the front line, signaled the two of them to proceed carefully.

Matthew replied in the affirmative.

during the subsequent stealth process.

They actively avoided the brazier and all the guards in the square——

This is actually quite difficult.

The Sestan family was once one of the three major families in Blood Sand City. Even though it has declined now, its family fortune is still quite rich.

At least Matthew had never seen such a large number of true seeing gems and malicious totems in any force's secret ceremony.

In addition, the little devils who serve the pillar of fire themselves have super-sense.

This caused considerable difficulties for Matthew and others to move forward.

Fortunately, the threesome have their own methods.

Matthew's invisibility ball was extremely powerful, and coupled with Carmela's divine blessing, it took them nearly two hours to finally reach the core of the sacrifice without alerting any of the outer guards. .

ahead.

On the giant high platform deep in the square.

A female devil with a great figure wearing a dragon mask was lying coldly on a raised platform.

She is surrounded by seven female devils.

The female devils were topless and wore red and black short skirts. The emblem flashing on the skirt was the totem of the Supreme Dragon God.

They chanted some mysterious and ancient mantra.

It seems that he wants to wake up his sleeping master.

certainly.

Matthew, who had done in-depth homework in advance, understood that all this was just the surface of the ceremony——

The female devil lying on the stone bench was not really sleeping.

She just wanted to imitate the ancestor of the Sestan family - wake up from a deep sleep, and then rule the world with the power given by the blood river in the dream -

This is the symbolism of the sacrificial ceremony.

He also knew that the female devil in front of him was named Sandrine, the Raging Dragon Lady, and she was the last heir of the Sestan family.

The Sestan family is a very complex devil family.

They are not devils born and raised in Purgatory, but similar to the devil dragons, they are immigrants who moved from other planes in the star realm and eventually integrated into Purgatory.

It is said that this family still retains part of its belief in the supreme dragon.

Matthew didn't believe it when he asked about it earlier.

After all, during the years of the Five-Colored Dragon God Baruch's torment, except for a very small number of astral dragon people, the belief in the Supreme True Dragon has basically disappeared.

But when I saw the totems on the devils around the dragon girl Sandrine.

Matthew realizes that the family's reservations about the supreme dragon may be true.

But it's a pity.

"The ritual failed."

"The Supreme Dragon ignored her sacrifice."

"I even doubt whether their beliefs have been truly heard by the Supreme True Dragon."

"Haha, all the sacrifices were cut off by some old glutton in the star world, but she seems to know nothing about it yet."

Carmela's sharp comments echoed in Matthew's heart.

As a legendary priest who is almost extinct in this era.

Carmela is naturally highly authoritative in her research and judgment in the fields related to faith and sacrifice.

Sure enough.

It didn't take long.

All the braziers in the square went out at the same time.

The seven female devils who were circling around the dragon girl suddenly fell silent——

They seemed to have been strangled by the neck, and no longer had the ability to sing calmly.

On the high platform.

Dragon Lady Sandrine suddenly opened her eyes.

The next second.

A huge vortex opened in the space in front of her.

Immediately afterwards.

A black piece of flesh of unknown shape fell from the crack in space.

Sandrine's body was ablaze with orange-red flames.

The flames enveloped the black pieces of flesh, and soon a sharp and painful cry came from the flames.

The female devils surrounding the edge of the flames dispersed in time.

The purgatory monks in the square also left after being driven away by the little devils and other middle-level devils.

For a while.

The entire underground space became dark and quiet.

Only the flames on the high platform were still fighting fiercely with the black flesh.

Another ten minutes or so passed.

The black piece of flesh gradually turned into a pitch black stone.

Sandrine's flames faded away.

But there is still some light in her.

This made her look somewhat sacred in the dim underground space, but it also made the tired look on her face clearly visible.

"I see."

"She had no intention of truly communicating with the Supreme True Dragon from the beginning. She just used this ritual to deliberately seduce some evil gods in the star world to intercept, and then tricked them into taking the bait to get what she wanted..."

Carmela's voice became a little more animated.

And while they were communicating.

Matthew had already reached the high platform with his invisible magic ball, and Lorraine, who was acting alone, also arrived from the other side.

Sandrine silently put the black object away.

Then he looked around with sharp eyes:

"Dare you trespass on the secret ritual of the Sestan family?"

"You are so courageous."

"Looks like he's no ordinary thief."

Matthew had no intention of making a sneak attack.

So he showed up:

"Of course ordinary thieves don't have the guts."

"We're sorry we chose this relatively disrespectful approach, but we had no choice."

"After all, it's not that easy to see you."

Sandrine looked at Matthew's face:

"Tiefling? Ha, it's obviously disguised... Forget it, I'm too lazy to care."

"I heard during the day that someone was in the market area inquiring about documents from the Nine Prisons. I didn't expect you to come so quickly."

"It's just that you are not the first ones to come to me."

“And the answer I can give is the same as I gave to those people in the past——

The Sestan family will not put the Nine Hell Documents into the hands of others.

Whether renting or buying or selling.

It's all impossible! "

"You violated the ritual and desecrated the sacred place. I should have punished you."

"But I'm in a good mood today, so I'll give you a chance -

Leave now!

Don't let me see you in Blood Sand City.

Otherwise my dragon fire will burn you to ashes! "

Hear this.

Lorraine couldn't help but whistle.

A smile appeared on Carmela's face.

Only Matthew looks decent:

"Your threats have no effect on us. We come with sincerity and hope to solve some of the problems between us."

"I've heard something. Some time ago, the Sestan family's caravan was intercepted and killed as soon as they left the city. They almost couldn't even save the documents from the Nine Prisons."

"Although there are rumors that you met the demon lord, you should know better than us what happened. The Kane family and the White Devil family have been suppressing Sestan for decades. I admire your courage and independent support. will."

"But in fact, the situation of the Sestan family has not improved. It is even worse than before, isn't it?"

Sandrine's tone gradually became colder:

"The internal affairs of the Sestan family are not yet in the hands of a new tiefling."

Matthew shrugged:

"Don't be so absolute in everything. If you are a little more flexible, things may turn around."

"You guessed it right, we need a document from the Nine Prisons to achieve some goals."

"But this does not mean that we will occupy the Nine Hells Document for too long."

"On the contrary, we will pay a lot of sincerity for this cooperation - at least we are confident that we can change the offline structure of the Sestan family."

Sandrine's eyes narrowed into a line:

"You only need the Nine Hells Document to do a one-time thing?"

"Which Purgatory Lord do you want to attack?"

Matthew's eyelids jumped.

This female devil's reaction is really sharp -

Or.

Is it commonplace in Purgatory to use the Nine Hells Document to sneak attack a Purgatory Lord?

"Are you sure you want to know?"

Matthew asked with a smile.

Sandrine said coldly:

"I must evaluate the value and risk of the transaction you are talking about."

"In addition to knowing which Purgatory Lord you want to assassinate, I also have to see your strength."

"Only the three of you?"

"If so, unless you are all legendary masters..."

The next second.

Roland and Carmela successively released a little legendary domain and characteristics.

The domains from outside Purgatory on these two people seem so different in this space.

Almost instantly, the power of Purgatory counterattacked.

Sandrine's pupils shrank:

"Three legends?"

Matthew's smile without saying anything was obviously taken as a tacit agreement by her.

But soon.

She still shook her head:

"Although the Sestan family lacks legendary strongmen, you are legends from outside. The combat power you can exert in Purgatory is less than 70% of the normal situation. I find it hard to believe that you can really help."

"And judging from your tone, you will not stay in Purgatory for too long. You will do a job and leave, but you may leave endless hidden dangers for me and the Sestan family."

"This deal is too risky for me. I can't agree to it."

"Please go back, all three of you."

This time.

Her tone became much more polite.

Matthew continued to lobby:

"You only need to provide a document from the Nine Hells, and you don't need to do anything else."

"There will be a generous reward after the matter is completed, and no one will know."

"We can even directly eliminate a powerful devil in the Blood Sand City for you - from the two families that suppressed you."

Sandrine smiled faintly:

"It sounds very tempting."

"But I'm sorry, I still have to say no."

"The Sestan family will not cooperate with outsiders, it has been like this before, and it will be the same in the future, even if we perish..."

Matthew frowned and wanted to say something.

Carmela next to him brightened up:

"What you actually want to say is "Bugs like you from lowly races are not qualified to cooperate with noble devils even if you become legends. If the family is not in trouble, I must lock you up with other slaves and torture you severely...""

Sandrine was shocked, and then furious:

"Can you read minds?"

Carmela responded expressionlessly:

"Occasionally. "

Sandrine's body immediately ignited with orange-red dragon fire, and then she gave herself several buffs.

After that.

Her tone became cold and tough:

"Get out!"

"You are not welcome here!"

"This is an ultimatum. The glory of the Sestan family is not something that you lowly races can humiliate!"

"Flame..."

"Follow my command and destroy everything!"

In an instant.

More flames swept in from all directions.

The entire underground space erupted with sharp alarms.

A large number of demons are rushing over!

"I said before that these demons are damn stubborn old men and are not so easy to be persuaded. It is better to use my method and try to sleep with her..."

Dodge.

Lorran complained.

Matthew looked at Sandrine bathed in dragon fire with some regret:

"We are determined to get the Nine Hells Documents."

"Unfortunately, Your Excellency chose the most unwise approach. "

Sandrine sneered:

"Wait until I peel off your skin, and you will know what wisdom is..."

"Don't think that legends can do whatever they want in Purgatory."

"You lowly races don't understand the greatness of the will of the Blood River!"

Boom!

The dragon fire rushed straight to Matthew's face.

But at that moment.

Matthew took a step forward, and a large amount of black flames swept over his body. The moment Sandrine's dragon fire touched the black flames, it all rolled back and then disappeared out of thin air!

Sandrine was shocked.

But immediately she felt a dizzying pain!

"Ability: Above the Dragon"!

The powerful pressure caused Sandrine's body to fall into a brief stiffness.

At that time.

Matthew stepped forward quickly, and in Sandrine's surprised eyes, a shovel was instantly placed on her neck, and she vaguely felt the sharp edge of the shovel!

"Last chance, cooperate or not?"

Matthew spoke very quickly.

Sandrine sneered:

"Even if you kill me, you won't be able to get the Nine Prisons' Documents."

"And if you kill me, don't even think about leaving Blood Sand City alive."

"I'm not afraid at all..."

But the word "afraid" hasn't come out yet.

The sharp shovel removed her head as smoothly as cutting butter!

Boom!

A large amount of flames came out from the dragon priestess's neck.

Her head fell to the ground in a mess.

Matthew stepped on it.

But her body fled to the bottom of the platform in the flames -

There.

A large number of demons were gathering on the platform.

At the critical moment.

A foot appeared at the foot of the headless corpse just in time.

The latter stumbled.

Then.

A huge nail hammer broke through the air, shining with dazzling divine light, and with just one blow, Sandrine's headless body was hammered into a meat paste!

At the same time.

Sandrine's head was also grabbed by Matthew's pale hand.

Under the influence of negative energy.

Her head struggled for a while, and her eyes quickly lost color.

Her soul left the body instantly.

But at the moment she appeared.

The troll princess Riki suddenly appeared with the Jaeger Blade in hand, and quickly sucked in the soul of Sandrine, who was full of fear!

…

"Hint: You killed the dragon priestess Sandrine (LV20/elite template).

Tauren Lord: You have obtained the realm "Purgatory" from Sandrine!

Purgatory (entry level): After opening this realm, you will be regarded as a Purgatory creature and receive relevant judgments that are equal to Purgatory creatures."

…

"In the frontline city where the bloody battle with the devil is taking place, the strongest in the family is not even a legend. No wonder the Sestan family has fallen into this state!"

Matthew shook his head secretly.

Sandrine may have thought that her dragon fire could give her a glimmer of hope.

However, in front of Gordon's fire.

All the flames are like nothing.

Matthew caught the other party off guard, not to mention that Carmela and Roland secretly helped him, so it was easy for him to kill Sandrine in seconds.

Of course.

The next thing is the most critical.

He looked at the approaching demon army, and then at Roland.

The latter made a clear gesture, then took out the green flute and played for a while.

A few seconds later.

The thick fog completely surrounded the platform.

The demons who heard the news were instantly lost in the fog, and only a few curses from time to time could reach Matthew's ears.

"Your methods are too rough."

Matthew looked at the meat sauce on the ground, and then he put Sandrine's head next to the meat sauce and tried to use the necromancy -

Not long after.

A hideous flying ghost head flew up from the pool of blood.

Matthew had a trace of regret on his face.

He originally wanted to turn Sandrine's body into a zombie.

Now it seems that the plan has failed.

But fortunately, the most critical part should not be a problem.

The next second.

He returned to the Lost Paradise with the Jaeger Blade.

After consuming part of the founder's energy.

Matthew successfully resurrected Sandrine in the Lost Paradise!

"You!?"

"Me!?"

Sandrine looked at everything around her in horror.

Soon.

She understood her situation, and the shock on her face gradually disappeared, gradually turning into a feeling of unwillingness and bitterness.

Matthew looked at her thoughtfully:

"Carrying the fate of the Sestan family alone for these years has exhausted your energy."

"You originally wanted to take this opportunity to completely unload the burden-

After being killed by me.

Your soul will belong to a lord who has previously made a contract.

Aren't you afraid that he will throw your soul into the coin forge?

Or is the lord who signed the contract with you not in Purgatory?"

It is well known.

Souls are the hard currency of Purgatory.

And the coin forge is the key prop to compress ordinary souls into soul currency.

Almost all devils are keen on collecting various souls, among which the excellent and rare ones will be well collected, and most of the ordinary ones will be directly thrown into the furnace to be made into soul coins that can promote devils or levels.

Under this social rule.

Devils are generally afraid of death, and are even more afraid that their souls will be taken away by others and turned into soul coins.

But Sandrine did the opposite.

It was only after Matthew resurrected her that he read a hint of suicide from her soul.

Sandrine responded stubbornly:

"Since you resurrected me here, I have nothing to say."

"But don't you want to know where my soul will eventually belong!"

Matthew saw that she still looked unconvinced, and was a little surprised.

So he stepped forward:

"You know how much power I have in Paradise Lost."

"I can completely search your soul and see all your secrets..."

Hearing this.

Sandrine's face suddenly showed an expression of fear, shame, pain, and struggle.

"Wait!"

"I, I'll tell you where the Nine Hells' Documents are!"

"I will try my best to cooperate with whatever you want!"

"But don't search my soul, please, okay?"

She struggled to resist Matthew who kept coming forward.

The latter suddenly stopped:

"It's a deal."

"Don't be stunned, come out and send your clansmen and subordinates away first."

"You don't want them to become my puppets like you, do you?"

"This is an easy thing for me. By the way, I forgot to tell you, my job is to be a necromancer..."

Said.

Matthew's figure instantly disappeared into Paradise Lost.

Then a light blue portal appeared in front of Sandrine.

Sandrine stared blankly at the portal, her mind extremely confused:

"Necromancer?"

"A space where death can be resurrected?"

"Want to assassinate the Lord of Purgatory?"

"Wait, is he the destroyer..."

At this time.

She suddenly noticed out of the corner of her eye.

On a cosmic bedrock not far away, there are two figures working diligently.

"Are you also imprisoned here by him?"

She flew over and asked softly.

The two men glanced at her and continued working on their own.

Seeing that the other party ignored her.

Sandrine asked boldly:

"Can I know your names?"

"I mean, after all, we share the same problem. If we join forces, maybe..."

At this moment.

One of the men interrupted her coldly:

"My name is Sen'er, and I am a legendary thief with little reputation."

"Little girl, my advice is, work more and don't think too much..."

Finished.

He continued to plant trees.

Sandrine was stunned for a moment:

"Legendary thief?"

"Sen'er, is he the legendary Scarlet Letter Hunter in the material world?"

"No way?"

She was still a little unwilling.

Then he walked towards another man.

"Excuse me……"

She hasn't finished speaking yet.

He was rudely interrupted by the other party:

"If you could help me plant a few trees, I'd be willing to talk to you."

"If you can't, stay away from me."

Sandrine was a little angry:

"I just want to know your name."

The other party looked at her expressionlessly:

"Few people know my name, but people used to call me the God of Travelers."

"Understood, little girl, just do your part well."

"As far as I know, that damned necromancer doesn't like people who procrastinate..."

God of travelers?

Sandrine's pupils shrank again.

She silently left the bedrock of the universe.

It didn't take long.

Sandrine saw a black cat resting under a tree on the largest piece of bedrock.

She wanted to go over and ask.

But after a few seconds.

She didn't know what she thought of, and the expression on her face became extremely shocked.

In an instant.

She flew through the portal and left Paradise Lost.

Subsequently.

Lorraine removed the fog.

With the help of Matthew's improvised clones and tricks for her.

Sandrine persuaded the devils who came after hearing the news.

Although there are still some doubts in the eyes of these subordinates, Sandrine usually has a high prestige in the Sestan family. In addition, the "corpse" of Matthew and the three of them are indeed lying on the ground. The devils finally came one after another. left.

Wait until the dust settles.

Sandrine took out the Nine Prison Documents belonging to the Sestan family from another secret room in Dragon Castle and handed it to Matthew.

Together.

There is also a purgatory artifact.
