The necromancer just wants to plant trees.

Chapter 108 It's a waste of time for you to practice spells
……

"I didn't find Su Guo."

Facing Samantha's excited question, Matthew replied calmly:
"But I did find some clues related to Su in the south. I got a part-time job called "Balance Envoy". But it does have the function of balancing all things. "

Samantha's eyes twinkled.

She nodded slowly, then smiled in relief:
"Sorry, I'm a little rude."

Matthew shook his head:

"Everyone has their own obsessions, which is normal."

Samantha bit her lip and said nothing more.

The two chatted for a while.

Samantha and Ella started to restore a shrine on the No.13 floor of the hive.

Only the afterglow of divine power remained in the shrine, and the statue of the goddess of moonlight had long since disappeared. Fortunately, they had already prepared for it. After completing a series of restoration rituals, Samantha took out a brand new statue of the goddess and placed it in.

Whoa!
A white wave of light rippled out from above the statue.

Matthew could clearly feel that it was the divine power of the Moon Goddess!

"Asiya's condition seems to have improved a lot?"

he thought to himself.

"Okay, after the shrine is restored, we, the moonwalkers, can teleport here directly, saving you the trouble of walking."

Samantha pulled her hair up:

"I plan to continue cleaning the worm nest in one to two weeks. During this period, I need to make a lot of preparations, and I will call Craig at that time."

Matthew nodded and said:
"Just ask Ella to notify me."

He felt a slight sense of crisis.

The female orc Craig is obviously strong in combat, and it is still unknown what her relationship with Samantha is.

If Craig also joins the Moon Grove, then Matthew's importance to Asia may be compromised.

Before the goddess of moonlight "transfers love", Matthew must show his own value.

Then the next time to clean up the worm nest is the best time to show it.

……

The next day.

Matthew took the female goat to work as usual.

But today, as soon as he entered the door, he bumped into the long-lost Zeller.

"Good morning, Matthew."

Zeller greeted Matthew while arranging the documents on the table:
"How's the office? Can you fit in?"

Matthew responded with a smile:
"Everything is fine here, just what my dream job should be like."

Zeller smiled, then glanced at his mother goat.

Matthew immediately explained:
"I'm learning "Malicious Transfiguration". "

A hint of envy flashed in Zeller's eyes:
"So you chose a goat for your malicious form, right? It's a good choice, unlike us warlocks, who can wake up whatever is awakened. I hate frogs the most, but many of my abilities are related to frogs."

Matthew shrugged:

"But I occasionally want to get something for nothing like a warlock. I heard that a lucky warlock can master new spells even if they eat, sleep and drink saliva."

Zeller explained with a smile in his eyes:

"Warlocks usually go through the stage you mentioned, but it mostly occurs in adolescence when their abilities are rapidly improving. But before that, you don't know how much pressure and stimulation we have endured."

talking.

He looked at the female goat again with some doubts:
"I always feel like she's not doing well."

Matthew said embarrassedly:
"Last night, she was a little frightened. I don't know if she can get through it."

Came back from the cemetery yesterday.

Although the female goat was not frightened to death, her mental state was extremely depressed.

Matthew sensed it and found that her pulse was weak, and then he took a look with his spiritual vision to confirm that the goat's soul was also dull.

This sounded the alarm in Matthew's heart——

Although I can get along happily with the undead, most ordinary living creatures are still very afraid of the undead.

Zombie swarms, just appearing next to ordinary people is enough to scare people unconscious.

I must further strengthen the management of the cemetery and the oak forest.

More warning signs are on the way.

As for this female goat.

Matthew is not sure how long she can last, but I hope she can last until the day he fully comprehends Malicious Transfiguration.

The two are talking.

Rhaegar appeared in pajamas with coffee.

"The problem of Riverside Village has been solved?"

Rhaegar asked Zeller.

The latter nodded:
"The emotions of the villagers have been calmed down, and I assure them that similar things will not happen in the future."

Rhaegar greeted Matthew, motioned him to come and listen, and then continued to ask:

"So, what's going on so that the taxes are almost gone for the second half of last year?"

Zeller said:
"The tax officer we sent to Riverside Village is Little Patton. He slept all the women in the village chief's house as soon as he arrived there."

Rhaegar reacted subconsciously:
"So the village head became angry?"

Zeller waved his hand:

"The village head is voluntary, and the women in his family are also voluntary."

Rhaegar asked suspiciously:

"Then how did it happen that the villagers of Hepan Village refused to pay the tax and even beat Little Paton up?"

There was also a strange look on Zeller's face:

"The strange thing about this matter is that, after little Patton had an affair with the women of the village chief's family overnight, he suddenly found himself contracted mottled disease the next day, and his crotch was covered with dense scabies. At that time, he was very angry. Crazy, I went directly to the village chief for a theory."

Rega took a sip of coffee, frowned and said:
"He wants to ask the village chief for compensation?"

Zeller still shook his head:

"No, he proposed two options to the village chief. First, he will take off the village chief's crotch in public to see if he has similar symptoms; second, if the village chief disagrees with the first item, then he will The women of the village chief again, and at least one of them must be taken away."

When Matthew heard this, he was extremely shocked by the brain circuit of the tax official.

Rhaegar was also a little confused.

"Afterwards, I found Little Patton, and what he said was that since he had already been infected with the willow disease, he might as well have a good time, and when he returned to the town, he would not be able to infect others, so he had to take the disease away from the village. taller than a woman."

Zeller probably also dealt with this kind of thing for the first time, he looked very speechless:
"Of course the village chief disagreed. He claimed that he and his women were very clean. A dispute arose between the two sides. The dispute soon escalated into a conflict. You know what happened later. Little Patton was driven back in a desperate manner. When I left Rolling Stone Town, I only brought back half of the tax money, and the village chief kept the rest in his own hands."

"However, the village chief didn't seem to intend to resist the tax. As soon as I arrived in Hepan Village, he handed in the remaining tax in full, and dragged me into the house and took off his crotch."

Having said that, Zeller couldn't help coughing twice:

"I have seen with my own eyes that the village chief and his women did not suffer from Hualiu disease."

Rega tapped lightly on the desk with five fingers:

"So Patton Jr. is lying?"

Zeller shook his head:

"Not necessarily. We all know Little Patton's character. Although he is lustful, he has always been reliable in his work.

Ms. Liz is still very good at teaching her son. Little Parton, like his brother Brad, has never made a mistake in his post in the past few years.

This time, it may be stimulated by the willow disease, and the behavior became so perverse afterwards.

I checked his body and it was really severe scabies.

According to Parton Jr., it came out after that night.

The whole thing was just unbelievable.

I couldn't get rid of all the acne with the primary disease-removing scroll. I suspect that someone is playing tricks in the dark.

But after staying in Hepan Village for several days, I didn't get anything extra, so I came back first. "

Rhaegar nodded heavily.

"Could it have something to do with Little Bamo?"

Bamer Jr. was the magician who was suspected of kidnapping Sif and killing his own father.

After he fled Rolling Stone Town, he never appeared again.

Zeller said uncertainly:
"This suspicion cannot be ruled out, but my divination has not shown any relevant traces. The other party is very cunning, and there is a high probability that he will run away after just a test. I am worried that this will involve my energy, so I did not continue to pursue it. I arranged Little Parton rests at home for a while, eats some herbs, and visits him after a while."

Rhaegar glanced at Matthew:
"Spell consultant, what do you think?"

Matthew said seriously:

"I think Zeller handled it well."

Rhaegar couldn't help but rolled his eyes.

"Anything else?"

he asked Zeller.

Zeller took out a papyrus and placed it in front of Rhaegar:

"This is the latest official letter from Jade Cangting. In the letter, they mentioned that a team of Shadow Leopards is on their way."

Matthew raised his hand and asked:

"When did I hear this sentence?"

Zeller smiled and said:

"Yes, before you were about to go south, Jade Cangting sent a team of Shadow Leopards to pick up our prisoners.

Unfortunately, that team of Shadow Leopards was attacked by a green dragon just after they left the Jade Cangting, and they were wiped out in the end.

Afterwards, Jade Cangting investigated for a long time and wasted a lot of time.

In the end, they sent us a letter saying that a second team was sent to receive the criminals from the Silver Frost Brotherhood. "

Matthew raised his eyebrows:
"So those arsonists have been eating and drinking in prison for more than a month?"

Rega got angry when he heard this, he slapped the table hard:
"Respond to Jade Cangting, let them add more money, and if the action is not quicker, I will sell this group of people to the necromancers of Baiyan City. They also hate arsonists!"

Zeller pouted without comment.

Matthew had an idea:
"These criminals are locked in prison every day doing nothing?"

Rhaegar asked:
"if not?"

Matthew proposed expectantly:

"Why not let them work?

Arsonists are very good at making fire glue and dragon oil. Find an overseer, give them the materials, and let them work hard for us.

You can't eat and drink for free, can you?

If you don't think it's appropriate for arsonists to come into contact with these dangerous objects, let them repair my cemetery.

I'll let the zombies keep an eye on them, it won't go wrong. "

Rhaegar and Zeller looked at each other.

The former pondered:

"What you said doesn't seem unreasonable."

The latter sighed and said:

"In doing so, it can really pay for itself."

Immediately, the two of them said in unison:

"As expected of a necromancer!"

……

"The last thing, according to the Committee of Five, the haunting of the South Trading Station has intensified, and Howard and the owners of several craft workshops have put pressure on them many times.

The five-member committee found several spirit masters in the town, but none of them solved the problem.

I figured it out, and the whole story is probably like this——

Starting more than 20 days ago, workers have reported one after another, saying that they saw ghosts in the handicraft workshop.

What's more strange is that everyone describes the ghost form they see differently.

Some people said that they saw a ghost stealing food in the kitchen. The ghost's body was thin and long, like an infinitely elongated noodle;
Some people say that they saw a ghost when they went to the toilet, and the ghost suddenly frightened him when he was excreting. In the early morning of the next day, even the toilet in the dry toilet was stolen by the ghost. The ghost who stole the toilet had no head. Laugh like a child;

Some people also said that they saw a ghost sitting on the spinning wheel when they were working overtime, and the ghost was still asking why they worked so hard. Aren't they afraid of being exhausted?Then the ghost destroyed all the spinning wheels.

At first, Howard and other workshop owners did not believe the workers' claims.

They strictly ordered the workers to continue working.

Until recent days, Howard himself claimed to have seen ghosts, too.

It's just that the ghosts he saw were different from other people's.

He said that what he met was a ghost bride, and the ghost bride fell in love with him at first sight, fell in love with him, and said that on NO.20 of this month, she would come in a ghost carriage and take him away forever.

Howard was terrified and stuck in the city hall all day to make trouble.

The five-member committee had no choice but to feed back the news to us. "

After Zeller finished speaking, he took a big sip of ginger water.

Neither Matthew nor Rhaegar responded.

In the fantasy world, ghosts and the like are commonplace.

Necromancers are the natural enemies of ghosts.

Even Rhaegar can wreak havoc on ghosts by applying sword oil.

This kind of thing is really not worth mentioning to extraordinary people like them.

"Need me to check it out?"

Matthew asked.

Zeller shook his head:

"No need for the time being. This matter is just a routine report for the morning meeting. I'll take a trip first. If I can't solve it, I will ask our magic consultant to take action."

talking.

He packed his things and left the office hall quickly.

Looking at the back of Zeller going away.

Matthew was in awe:

"Zeller is really hardworking."

Ray deepened his opinion:

"Yeah, without him, I don't know what Rolling Stone Town would be like. Well, do you want coffee? Mrs. Wesley seems to be in a good mood today, and the coffee she made is just right."

Matthew says:
"Can I have a drink, I'll get it myself later, can I borrow the newspaper?"

"No, this one just arrived today, I'll get you the last issue."

After speaking, Rhaegar got up and walked into the small room behind.

Then he handed over a copy of Alliance Weekly and three bottles of sword oil to Matthew.

"This time I put a label, you see if there is a market."

Rhaegar said.

Matthew walked to his office with his things and the goat:
"Okay, let me study it."

He put the newspaper on the table and studied the label on the bottle.

The first bottle is called "Dragon Tail Sword Oil", and there are small words below it. After applying it, it can cause extra huge damage to the real dragon's tail.

The second bottle is called "Dragon Scale Sword Oil", and there are also small words below it. After applying it, it can cause a lot of extra damage to the real dragon's scales and other skin defense tissues.

"It looks okay, but the classification is too detailed."

Thinking of this, Matthew focused his attention on the third bottle.

Oddly, this bottle only has a label and no fine print underneath.

"Dragon Root Sword Oil".

Matthew was about to ask, but Lei Jia walked in hastily. He accurately grabbed the bottle of dragon root sword oil among the three bottles, and said without changing his expression:

"I took it wrong, this bottle is not for rubbing on the sword."

Matthew raised his eyebrows, showing a playful expression.

One p.m.

Rhaegar took a nap.

Matthew is off work.

When he was leading the mother goat through the corridor, he once again met Mrs. Wesley who was cleaning.

Matthew greeted her, and then asked gossipingly:
"Mrs. Wesley, has the lord not thought of continuing for so many years?"

Mrs. Wesley immediately replied:
"No, no. Although Rhaegar is a bit of a jerk at times, he is a good lord and a good father. For Sif, he has never planned to marry another wife."

Matthew asked thoughtfully:
"Then does he have a mistress outside?"

Mrs. Wesley stood up her broom and said with a smile:
"Of course there is. He is an upright man in his prime, silly boy. How could Rhaegar have no mistresses outside? What you should ask is how many mistresses he has."

Matthew suddenly felt itchy:

"Can you tell me who they are?"

Mrs. Wesley looked at him with a smile:
"Before I answer your question, you have to answer my question—are you interested in Rhaegar's mistress? Or are you interested in Rhaegar?"

Matthew flatly denied:
"I'm just interested in gossip."

Mrs. Wesley said helplessly:
"Then forgive me for not being blunt. My tone is very strict. Why don't you try to ask Sif? She might know."

Matthew smiled, knowing that the old lady was making fun of him, but he didn't take it seriously, and walked out of the office hall quickly.

Arriving at the corridor on the east side of the Lord's Mansion, before taking a few steps, the female goat suddenly twitched a few times, and then fell down weakly.

Matthew bent over to check, then sighed deeply.

Hopeless.

At this time, Mrs. Wesley just came out with a broom.

"Need help, kid?"

she asked with concern.

"No, please inform the lord and Mr. Zeller that if they are free tonight, I will invite them to my house for dinner."

That's it.

Matthew asked Ah Bing to carry the goat.

Then the two quickly left the Lord's Mansion.

……

"The mutton soup last night was really good!"

Early the next morning.

When Rhaegar met, he said to Matthew:

"Brad never likes to eat mutton, but I think he ate a big bowl yesterday, and Sif did too. Peggy's cooking skills are really good. It's a pity that Li Weiqi went to Gaoyeling, otherwise he would definitely applaud .”

Matthew forced a smile:
"Compared with mutton soup, I still prefer the taste of roast leg of lamb."

Rhaegar's eyes moved to behind him:

"Another goat?"

Matthew nodded:

"I just bought it this morning. It's a male goat, and the price is even more expensive."

Rhaegar said with concern:
"How is your spell practice?"

Matthew sighed and said:
"There is not much progress. After eating mutton yesterday, it seems that there is a slight improvement, but I am not sure if that is my illusion."

Rega tentatively said:
"Would you like to have another meal tonight?"

Matthew solemnly refused:

"impossible!"

"I won't let him get any fright this time."

something unexpected may happen any time.

When planting trees in the afternoon.

Matthew originally tethered the billy goat in the woods.

But somehow, this guy broke free from the noose and ran away.

Ah Bing heard the wind and rushed to pursue him.

As a result, the boy chopped off the goat's head with a knife.

Wait until Matthew rushes over.

The blood of this goat is almost exhausted!
Without any choice.

Matthew had to invite relatives and friends to his home to attend the whole sheep banquet again.

Day three.

Matthew leads a lamb to work.

Rhaegar was delighted at the sight:

"Are you going to switch to lamb today?"

"It's true, it's quite a waste of time for you to practice spells."

Matthew tried to keep a polite smile:
"No, it's just that the funds are tight and I can't afford to buy adult goats."

"Sir, would you like to help me a little?"

"The magic consultant has no money to learn spells, so it's not good for the reputation of Rolling Stone Town if it spreads out?"

Rhaegar shrank his head and continued to read the newspaper.

With foreshadowing.

Matthew watched the lamb very closely.

Wherever he went, he held on tight to the reins.

In order to prevent the opponent from getting out of the way, Matthew kept tightening the noose.

finally.

Under Matthew's unremitting efforts.

After returning from a trip to the toilet.

He found that the lamb had suffocated to death!
night.

Matthew's house was brightly lit, and everyone ate happily.

Only Matthew wept secretly in his heart.

After a full meal.

Everyone is chatting.

Right now.

There was a warning sign in front of Matthew's eyes!
……

"Warning: The Ash Lord's forces have arrived, and they will hunt you to the ends of the earth!"

……

Matthew stood up immediately, and said to the people who were chatting on the sofa:

"Everyone, I'm afraid we have something to do tonight!"

His expression was very serious, but he felt much relieved in his heart.

Own lamb.

It's not for nothing!
