The necromancer just wants to plant trees

Chapter 572: Prayer and the Tributaries of the Styx

…

Faced with this sudden scene, even though the priestess had not yet launched her attack, Lulu had already screamed and hid in the corner of the room.

Only Matthew stayed where he was, unmoving.

"Please!"

"Please, let me take a bite, just one bite..."

"I really want to..."

The priestess' facial features were highly distorted, and her facial expression became extremely deformed.

Her neck was squirming like a soft leather tube flowing through water, and her face was oozing with snot, tears and blood, giving people an extremely terrifying feeling.

The priestess's head came closer, and her teeth made a clicking sound.

Matthew sighed softly.

He stretched out a hand toward the other person's head:

"Relax."

"Let me help you..."

Matthew's tone was gentle.

In the small and cramped space, the eternal realm unfolded first, followed by nature and immortality.

The three major areas overlap.

The trembling madness factor in the air was instantly suppressed.

The deformity on the priestess's face disappeared instantly.

Her wrinkled skin became as smooth as ever, white and tender.

Her eyes were clear and calm again.

"Thanks……"

She lowered her head, her eyes slightly red.

"You're welcome."

"This is what I should do."

Matthew still maintained the gentlest tone:

"Relax, don't resist, I'll help you get rid of the influence of the crazy second hand on your body..."

If it was before.

Matthew still had little confidence that he could remove the marks of madness from the priestess.

It was the super high status of the eternal realm that gave him such confidence.

However, the priestess shook her head slightly.

She said with apology in her eyes:

"Thank you for your kindness, but it's too late."

"My insides have long been rotten, and those crazy powers have seeped into my bone marrow and flesh. Even if you peel them off, I will never be able to get rid of their influence in this life."

Matthew is still insisting:

"Might as well give it a try."

The priestess has her own insistence:

"Thanks, but no need."

"Suffering this madness is the price I have to bear."

"You may not know that every night I listen to the crazy ravings of the crazy second hand - not the god Loa who supports the crazy second hand, but the "Turing" swallowed by Loa. "

"But this is all of my own free will."

"This is the price in exchange for Crazy Second Hand to protect the Fairy Flower Garden. Otherwise, our Flower Garden would have become a bad land under the rule of Stuluk Industry as early as the time when the Snow Queen disappeared..."

"That's what they do in the eastern part of the Arcane Wilds."

"The disappearance of the Snow Queen is also related to them..."

Matthew's eyes became serious.

In the whispering narration of the priestess.

He learned about the deal between the Priestess and Crazy Second Hand, and about Stuluk Industries' colonization of the Arcane Wilds.

turn out to be.

In addition to the planet Stuluk, the Necron gang also successfully opened a second colony in the Arcane Wilds!

It's just that these things are done relatively low-key.

After the Blood Moon attack, Stuluk Industries reached a peace agreement with the original forces of the Arcane Wilderness, so it received little attention.

But not before that.

The Necron invasion in the Arcane Wilds and the adjacent Fairy Garden is in full swing.

After the Ice Queen disappeared.

Without the timely help of Crazy Second Hand, the Fairy Garden is doomed to fall, and it will become another springboard for Stuluk to enter the material world.

It's a pity that neither the Creation of Twilight nor the old god of Tianlun Palace.

Their help in times of need is not without cost.

The priestess was forced to become a believer in the Crazy Second Hand, and at the same time she also acquiesced in the Second Hand Temple to preach among the goblins——

The fairy stream that Matthew encountered before is a vivid example.

Matthew learned further from the description of the priestess.

In order to divert Turing's influence and resistance, the god Loa transferred a considerable part of his madness factors to his followers.

This guy is vigorously developing followers just to relieve himself of pressure!

But this is actually not the best way to fight against the creation of dusk.

As far as Matthew knows.

The more madness spreads, the more Turing's power will be revived, which will inevitably further increase Loa's burden!

Relieving stress through believers is only a temporary solution rather than a permanent solution.

Loa was now able to gain the upper hand.

It is probably related to the encounter in the disappeared historical world!

"After you enter the Arcane Wilderness, remember to identify the direction by the position of the stars. Then go all the way west, never go to the east!"

"The east of the wilderness is now Stuluk's territory, where those iron boxes built a huge factory complex and countless chimneys rising into the sky."

"Crazy Second Hand told me that the Snow Queen was captured by them in a valley where spring is all year round, and the iron boxes buried her underground. There is a secret laboratory of Stuluk Industries."

"They want to turn the Snow Queen into something weird like themselves!"

"They want to turn all the goblins into tin boxes too!"

"So be sure to be careful!"

The priestess warned repeatedly.

Matthew nodded vigorously.

The priestess looked more relaxed and her tone became softer:

"If you are successfully promoted to become a legend, if there is a chance...I mean if, I hope you can trace the traces of the Snow Queen while ensuring your own safety."

"Even if her condition is not very good, even if only the body or wreckage can be found, please try to bring her back to the fortress."

"She once told me many years ago that if she died one day, she hoped to be in the garden of the fortress and not somewhere else."

Her tone was very sad.

But he soon adjusted back.

She glanced at Lulu who silently flew back from the corner, with a sincere smile on her face:

"I originally wanted to wait for you to come back and let one of you take my place, but now it seems that the situation is not good."

"This scepter represents the power and authority of the priestess, and there is also a scepter that belongs to the Fairy Queen. It was taken to the wilderness by the Snow Queen and may not be recovered for a while, so I used this one as a replacement. "

"It is up to you to decide who among you will be the queen and who will be the priest."

"In short, from today onwards, the power of the Fairy Garden will be handed over to the two of you..."

While talking.

Two mini-staffs flashing yellow and blue respectively flew out of the cabinet and hovered in front of Matthew and Lou.

These two staffs are one big and one small.

They represent the status and authority of the Fairy Queen and the Fairy Priest respectively.

Matthew could feel that it contained extremely powerful power.

Lulu took the small yellow staff without thinking:

"Matthew, you take the big one and I take the small one."

Matthew didn't show any pretense and directly took the blue staff.

"I can accept this staff, but to be honest, I have no intention of becoming the Fairy Queen. I am just keeping this thing temporarily. If there is a fairy in the flower garden who is more suitable to be the Queen in the future, I promise you to take the staff with you." Leave it to her."

he promised.

The priestess nodded movedly.

Then she took a deep breath.

It seems that he has made some kind of awakening.

Matthew had already guessed her next move.

He finally advised:

"Even if I cannot completely separate madness from your body, I can extract your soul and spirit. If you are willing, you can continue to survive in my domain in the form of my dependents... …”

The priestess smiled and shook her head:

"Thanks."

"But in this life, I will only be loyal to the Queen. I'm sorry."

"I'm a little tired. Can you help me carry it to the fireplace over there? I want to have a good sleep."

Her voice was filled with peace and contentment.

Even Lulu, who had always been a hindsight, noticed a certain tendency.

She subconsciously opened her mouth:

"don't want……"

But in the priestess's determined gaze.

Matthew had to lift her up.

Then he spread the upper half of the priestess's body and the mud on the floor to the bottom of the dark fireplace.

Except for some bricks.

There was no firewood or fuel in the fireplace.

The priestess sat quietly next to the black wall of the fireplace.

Her head tilted back, and her face gradually blurred:

"Oh……"

"I have never felt so strongly as at this moment, what a wonderful thing it is to be alive!"

Bang!

A bright flame suddenly ignited everything in the fireplace.

Lulu covered her eyes with her hands and didn't dare to look.

Matthew looked at the flames on the priestess with respect.

It's the most painful time.

She still screamed once or twice.

But soon the sound faded into nothingness.

The fireplace was lit with flames.

The whole building seemed to suddenly come alive.

The weeds and cobwebs outside have faded away.

The bricks and furniture scattered on the floor have also been restored to their brand new appearance.

The huge magic power makes the entire fortress look brand new.

The next second.

A more turbulent force exploded from the fireplace.

Matthew flew outside.

He saw a storm of iridescent colors bursting from the top of the chimney.

The colorful storm swept every corner of Huaxin Fortress.

Every place that was swept was restored to its original, brand-new appearance.

final.

The storm kept sweeping downwards.

In Captain Cricket's sad eyes.

The colorful light submerged into the vortex of the plane.

Less than five seconds passed.

The whirlpool that caused huge damage to the Fairy Garden disappeared.

Feel the movement.

The goblins in the forest came over one after another.

They cheered and celebrated that the situation in the forest had improved.

Cao Ling was also chirping about the good news.

The entire flower garden seemed to come alive at this moment.

Become full of vitality again!

Everyone was immersed in rare joy.

Not realizing that some people are gone forever.

"What a powerful wish spell."

"This is her last strength..."

Matthew sighed softly.

Lulu sadly clenched the yellow scepter in her hand, as if to grasp the hands of the deceased priestess:

"I have no idea……"

"I always thought the priestess was a very dangerous person."

"But she has always been very good to us."

"I was very happy just now, but now, I don't know if I am worthy of holding this scepter."

Matthew rubbed her head:

"There is no such thing as deservingness. Is there anyone else in this flower garden who is qualified to hold this scepter?"

"If not, then you can only force yourself to shoulder this responsibility."

"The priestess is indeed great."

"Speaking of which, what kind of creature was she before she became a priestess? I don't think she looks like a fairy."

Lulu thought for a while:

"This is really not clear."

"But once "Piapia" once told me that the priestess was originally a very ordinary grass spirit, but after he said this, he was immediately laughed at by the other little goblins, and they even beat him on the spot. Got a fight..."

Grass spirit?

Matthew looked at the scepter in his hand and thought of the Grass Girl just now.

A grass girl left.

Another daughter of grass was born.

Is it a coincidence?

Or is it destiny?

Matthew didn't know.

However, he did have an investigation object in mind that could be used to pass on the Queen's scepter.

"let's go."

Looking at the celebration scene below the fort.

Matthew and the two had no nostalgia.

They said hello to Captain Cricket, and then, with the help of the priestess's scepter, they arrived at the back courtyard of the Flower Garden in an instant.

Travel through complex courtyards in the middle of nowhere.

Climb the huge and towering city wall.

And across a lake with no end in sight.

They finally left the fairy flower garden and arrived at an extremely sensitive junction.

Got here.

The risk factor is much higher.

Matthew saw many constructs wandering the wilderness.

There are also many constructed undead hunters carrying huge gun barrels.

and well-furnished campsites.

Such an environment is extremely dangerous for any goblin.

Once discovered.

He could die instantly!

Although Matthew was not afraid of them, he was very careful along the way in order to keep a low profile.

It took them a good two hours to cross the Stuluk Industries blockade.

Soon after.

They came to a small river flowing with black water.

There is a small hillside on the other side of the river.

A huge curtain hangs on the top of the hillside.

No matter where you go.

The curtain is always there.

Matthew knew that behind the curtain was the legendary arcane wilderness!

But want to get there.

You must first cross the river in front of you.

"This is not an ordinary river. This is the dividing river between planes. It is also an extension of the power of the underworld and a tributary of the River Styx."

Matthew felt the power of the river.

Flying over the Styx is strictly prohibited.

Ordinary ships cannot survive.

It is extremely dangerous for ordinary people, let alone petite fairies.

"I heard Piapia say that you can turn into a hollow pumpkin and float across it. If you're lucky, you can float to the other side of the river..."

Lulu was bold for once.

She took the initiative to fly to the river and performed a trick, conjuring a hollow jack-o-lantern on the river beach.

They pushed the jack-o'-lantern onto the river, and it sure didn't sink like other boats.

Then they sat on the jack-o-lantern and drifted with the crowd.

Their luck is very good.

Ten minutes later.

The pumpkin lantern is almost floating to the other side.
