The necromancer just wants to plant trees

…

"Excellent wisdom?"

A rare hint of approval flashed in Isabel's eyes.

Matthew nodded:

"But I only learned a little bit."

"And in this environment, I can't cast the spell smoothly."

Getting closer to the Twin Towers of Exile.

The ether environment becomes more and more harsh and depressing.

This is completely different from the spell prohibition enchantment.

Generally, a magic-forbidden barrier uses various means to drain away the ether in a specific area and artificially create a magic-forbidden zone.

The caster will only feel helpless, powerless and scared when walking in it.

The ceremony venue near the Twin Towers is different.

Walk here.

Matthew could feel a suffocating feeling like a mountain weighing him down all the time.

It was as if there was a huge mountain pressing on top of all the ether.

It may topple over at any time!

He estimated that if he cast a spell now, he could only lose the hands of a mage.

Fortunately, all ability-based spells can be used.

This is also the most superior feature of the Suriel series of spells.

"Because I only showed one aspect of a spell."

Isabel said lightly:

"The rest is about changing it back to the way it was."

Matthew guessed:

"Dimension correction?"

Isabel showed a smile:

"good."

"It's rare that you see through the essence of this spell."

"It is not a real dimensionality reduction of the spellcasting target, but just a displacement on the visual and material levels."

"During the process of casting the spell, we hid some of the displaced objects into the nearby derived dimensional space. They are one of the components of countless small levels in the material world and are usually easily ignored by people."

"In a sense, this is a combination of "Exile" and "Bluff \u0026 Illusion". "

"The gold coin used a similar technique against the Prince of the Dead's fleet, but in terms of power level, it was slightly higher than the trick I just used."

While talking.

She slapped her right hand hard again——

"Crack!"

There was a crisp sound.

The big fairy Coco returned to the status quo from the paper doll form.

Matthew blinked.

The extraordinary wisdom faithfully recorded the entire process of Isabel's spell casting.

Even if he can't imitate successfully now.

But he can already master the core content of this spell.

Matthew was fascinated by this genius way of learning magic.

He hoped that Isabel could show her hands a little more so that he could learn from her.

Unfortunately, the latter seemed to have lost interest in continuing to teach him. He just continued to look at the huge wind field in front of him and chatted casually:

"A spell that can truly reduce the dimensionality of a group of creatures or a space can only be mastered by existences at the level of natural disasters."

"Yin is one."

“Then it’s time to find another way to spend capital.”

"He could theoretically do it."

Matthew asked thoughtfully:

"Theoretically?"

"Because in reality, Fei Capital cannot get enough gold."

Isabel smiled faintly:

"The amount of gold in the multiverse where Irondor exists is limited."

"Fei Capital cannot occupy everything."

"Once he does this, the gold will lose its value. This is the most fatal flaw of the "Wealth Spell" and the key to Suriel's quiet transformation into the field of enchantment..."

"Fei Capital also realized this problem at a later stage, so he kept the gold coins and achieved detachment through more alternative means."

"He is indeed one of the smartest mages in Irondor."

"It's just not as good as Yin in the end."

More memories and a touch of melancholy appeared on her face.

Matthew said nothing.

You can tell.

Isabel still has a deep obsession with the Scourge Mage.

Maybe she gave up everything and went to the so-called original universe this time, maybe she went there with the idea of ​​meeting the natural disaster mage, right?

It was so powerful that even Isabel was fascinated by it.

Just how powerful is the Calamity Mage...

Matthew couldn't help but sigh deeply in his heart.

At this moment.

The wind field ahead suddenly changed again——

More yellow dust and green grass were raised crazily.

The even more hysterical roar of the Gale Demon Dragon came from the high tower.

But along with this process.

Matthew noticed that parts of the wind wall had become a little weaker.

Vaguely.

He saw the huge raised platform above the tower again.

There was a huge magic dragon lying on the platform at this moment.

The demon dragon was looking eagerly at the direction of Matthew and others.

Standing at the feet of the magic dragon was a child of seven or eight years old.

It's just that the child was wearing a tattered mage's robe, and his eyes were full of hostility and evil, giving the impression that -

Even if you look at him.

Your body will also be passively injected with extremely terrible negative energy!

"Dickens and the Gale sense your presence and mine."

Isabel said calmly:

"Actually, he has noticed your arrival a long time ago, otherwise he would not welcome the new students in advance."

"He does this to adjust to the best condition to face your challenges."

My challenge?

Matthew frowned.

It seems that once you take on the quest to advance to the Fairy Legend, the enemy will also feel it.

This is not an unusual thing.

It's even common in legendary advancement.

"But they don't seem to care about me."

Matthew asked curiously:

"Did you personally imprison Dickens and Dania here?"

Isabel replied:

"It doesn't matter whether I'm in person or not, what's important is that I represent the alliance and the alliance represents me."

"They have been imprisoned by the Alliance so far, and the hatred accumulated in their hearts cannot be dispelled through normal means."

"And it just so happens that the relationship between White Rock City and the Alliance has reached a critical node again. It's time to do something to establish the order in this relationship."

Matthew nodded.

Now that he has entered the Twin Towers area, he knows that this battle is inevitable.

However, he was still curious about the past between the Alliance and White Rock City.

To this.

Isabel didn't hide it.

She replied bluntly:

"You have to know that the relationship between White Rock City and the Alliance has always been very delicate."

"Nominally, White Rock City is a vassal of the Alliance, a subordinate, or even inferior organization. In fact, the Necromancers have always been ambitious. They are eager to be independent, to break free from the constraints, and to pursue more unbridled freedom of magic."

"They pretended to bow to the alliance just in exchange for space and time to survive."

"Note, the reason why the relationship between us has always remained delicate is because the alliance has always been strong enough to suppress White Rock City from beginning to end."

"But if the order of strength and weakness of the two sides is reversed, it will not be subtle enough to describe——"

"They will destroy us without hesitation!"

Coco suddenly interrupted:

"Since the Necromancers have been harboring evil intentions, why not choose a once and for all solution?"

"You look so powerful, you can't do it, right?"

Isabel didn't even look at her:

"It's easy for me to destroy White Rock City."

"But what after that?"

"As long as the Alliance exists, there will always be traitors, opponents and careerists."

"You always have to give people like this a place to go, and you always have to leave a place for the necromancers."

"Gathering these people together makes it easier to carry out population management at the right time. Well, that's pretty much what it means."

She said it lightly.

But Matthew was frightened when he heard:

"Like the Forsaken in the Ancient Lands."

Isabel nodded and said:

"almost."

"I realized a truth a long time ago. Killing can solve most of the problems in this world, but it cannot solve the root law of the existence of this world."

"The world is complex. It lives by complexity and dies by simplicity."

"If I killed all my opponents, I would find myself becoming my own biggest opponent."

"Unless I go ahead and kill myself."

"But after that, the world will cease to exist, or in other words, the world without the last independent individual will become meaningless."

"So, keeping White Rock City, the Ancient Land, and the Necromancers and the Forgotten ones is the best strategy."

“Their presence is an anchor, a balance, and a stimulus.”

“They are a source of chaos and a foundation of stability.”

"They are a source of unease."

"But without them, I'm afraid the alliance would have been at war with each other and become chaotic."

“From this point of view, they are reservoirs of chaos. "

"If someone has to take responsibility for chaos, it is certainly better to leave it to an external enemy."

Coco's eyes are filled with stars:

"I'm dizzy."

"But I think what you said makes sense."

Compared to the big goblin who can only listen to the excitement.

Matthew, who has experienced many events along the way, can directly understand the truth in Isabel's mouth.

He said with emotion:

"That's true."

"So, is it time to take action against Baiyan City?"

Isabel silently handed a prepared scroll to Matthew.

The scroll looked ordinary, felt cool to the touch, and even the ether fluctuation was very low.

You can open it and take a look.

Matthew's eyelids twitched:

""Seven Saints Advancement"? "

"Wait...the content above..."

Isabel took over Matthew's words with a smile:

"It's exactly the same as the legendary upgrade you received from the goblin, right?"

"Oh, of course this is the result of my deliberate copying. It can also be regarded as a small benefit for you before leaving."

"In this way, as long as you complete the same task, you can get feedback from two legendary advancements."

Is this okay?

Matthew looked grateful.

Isabel said:

"But the matter in Baiyan City has indeed reached a time when it should be resolved."

"If you can quell the old White Rock City troops who are exiled in the Twin Towers, you will have enough achievements to obtain the path to advance to the Seven Saints."

"This is a legendary method passed down by the natural disaster mage. Like the fairy advancement, it will not affect your own path. It is just a icing on the cake."

Matthew grabbed the scroll tightly, still feeling a little dreamy:

"But……"

"I?"

"Seven Saints?"

Isabel snorted coldly:

"Completing the task of advancing to the Seven Saints does not mean that you are qualified to directly become the Seven Saints. At most, you are only a "Seven Saints candidate." "

"During the same period of the alliance, there are at least thirty people who can become candidates for the Seven Saints. However, it takes great opportunity and luck to truly become the Seven Saints. It is difficult to ascend to the position of the Seven Saints based on strength alone."

"However, it is also an honor for the strongest candidate among the Seven Saints but lack of opportunities to become the "Mage Chief" of the Floating City. This is something that everyone can strive for. "

so.

The chief mage is the strongest among the candidates for the Seven Saints.

Maybe even surpass the Seven Saints?

Matthew was secretly shocked.

In fact, he has been constantly raising his evaluation of Ekmund deep in his heart. He didn't expect this guy to hide it so deeply!

No wonder Ronan didn't say anything when he was suspected of having the inheritance of the goddess of magic stolen...

"In short, the past events of White Rock City have been buried since the birth of the alliance. Subsequently, it has experienced events such as the Chain of Desire, the Land of Burial Bones, and the Traces of the Dead (Embers and Blood Crystals). Various conflicts have been hidden until now, and they are about to explode. time."

"I heard a while ago that Demo Reitz killed his son-in-law Lorraine Fangta."

"On the one hand, he did this to lure Hux out, and on the other hand, he was testing me."

"He wanted to know if I was really teaming up with Hux."

"However, what he didn't guess was that I didn't want to directly interfere with the affairs of White Rock City at all, and Hux did give up his magic power and carried out self-forgetfulness and exile.

She was helpless over her son's death.

But in my opinion, Hux, Dania, Dickens, including the current Lord of White Rock City, Demo Reitz, they are all the same! "

"Necromancer!"

"In other words, undead and negative energy are extremely dangerous areas. If you go too far on this road, you will easily lose yourself, lose your humanity, and become ambitious."

"This is determined by the nature of the field and has nothing to do with the individual."

"In my opinion, the greatest significance of the Necromancer's existence is to serve as a carrier of evil and chaos. Let them grow for a period of time, then kill them all, and then repeat the cycle..."

Matthew was terrified when he heard Isabel's words.

But then he puffed out his chest again.

Just then Isabel also cast her eyes over with a smile:

"Do you think I'm right?"

Change to before.

Matthew must have fooled him by saying something like "I don't think I'm qualified to comment."

But this time.

He said bluntly:

"I don't think it's right."

Isabel said "Oh".

His eyes became sharp:

"Are you against me?"

Matthew felt a pain in his chest, hummed slightly, and then responded:

"I have no intention of disapproving of you."

"But I have my own path and ideals."

"I don't want to be the second Isabel."

"I'm just me."

"I'm Matthew."

Say it.

He tore off the plain scroll with force.

The latter turned into fragments and glow gradually integrated into Matthew's body.

Same as goblin advancement.

The tasks of the Seven Saints’ advancement are also integrated into the system——

"Pull down the old part of Baiyan City"

Two highlighted task displays, one red and one gold, were always dancing in Matthew's field of vision.

It gave him an extraordinarily exciting feeling.

"The wind is about to stop."

Isabel said:

"Go ahead."

"Matthew the Necromancer."

"If you successfully advance to legend, you may become the first necromancer in the history of the alliance to become the guardian of the four directions."

Matthew took two steps forward, then suddenly turned back and smiled:

"Why can't it be Master Tongtian?"

…
