The necromancer just wants to plant trees.

Chapter 118 Dissociation Technique and Claw of Estel (seeking monthly ticket)
……

The collision between the army of the undead and the legion of ashes did not erupt into an earth-shattering battle.

presented in front of the crowd present.

Only one-sided massacre!

"Boiling~!"

Philoreus charged forward with the vigor of being the champion of the three armies.

The huge bone claws ruthlessly stepped on the head of the Ashen Warlord, but the strength of the latter was equally astonishing. Facing such a huge bone dragon, the Ash Warden just tilted his head and put his ear on one side of his neck.

boom!
He swung a mace vigorously, and hit Xiao Bo's waist and abdomen hard!
puff.

A crisp sound.

The negative energy shield surrounding Xiaobo's body was ruthlessly crushed.

The thick and long mace violently slapped Xiaobo's ribs and breastbone, making the grinding sound of teeth and the sound of bones breaking!
when it is.

The bones of Xiao Bo's body collapsed like an avalanche.

In just a few seconds, a large piece of his chest and abdomen collapsed.

The Ash Overseer is littered with bone fragments.

He excitedly pursued the victory.

However, Xiao Bo didn't move at all, he let the opponent's mace go in and out of his chest.

He raised his neck high and burst out short syllables.

"Dragon Language Magic: Multiple Gravity Technique"!
boom!
At the moment when the syllable burst.

Rounds of black halos suddenly appeared on Xiao Bo's body.

Under the action of several times the gravity.

The Ash Warlord, as strong as a mountain, fell to his knees unexpectedly.

He subconsciously wanted to use the mace to support the tendency to fall, but the two bone dragons that had been rushing to the side suddenly rushed forward.

One of them raided the Ashen Warlord's foot, and the other grabbed the mace that had lost its strength and took it away!
"No!"

Unwilling groans erupted from the Ash Warlord's mouth.

Followed by.

His huge body was completely crushed to the ground!
The next scene is very unsuitable for children——

Led by Xiaobo, the three bone dragons "stomped" crazily on the fallen Ash Warlord!
The three bone dragons took turns exerting force, running over the monster and falling back.

No one can stand this.

quickly.

With the miserable wailing, the Ashes Warlord turned into dust all over the sky like other Ashes.

The boss dies.

The remaining Ashes had no chance of winning.

Xiao Bo, who had lost a lot of bones, was still fighting bravely.

But seeing him entering and exiting the enemy formation, he wiped out the remaining ashen warriors.

As for the Ash pawns.

As early as when the bone dragons were fighting with the Ash Warlord, they were eaten alive by the undead.

The massacre soon came to an end.

There was a rain of ashes all over the Scar of the Dead.

Under the command of Matthew.

A large number of undead creatures quickly exit the mark of the dead.

In the process, Matthew also discovered that undead creatures are also unable to avoid the damage of Scar of the Dead, and many skeletons and zombies have broken limbs and turned into ashes.

The Banshee, the Mummy, and the other two Skeletal Dragons are better off, but not completely unscathed.

Only Xiaobo himself.

Aside from the fact that the Ash Warlord dug a big hole in his chest with a mace and lost a lot of bones, he didn't seem to be eroded by the power of the Scar of the Dead.

Matthew glanced at the data bar.

……

"Perception: Your summoned object, Philoreus, has preliminarily mastered the characteristic "King Temperament" that the lord template possesses. This temperament is enough to lock all the elements in him, ensuring that it will not be leaked under the action of external forces."

……

"This guy does have the temperament of a king."

Looking at the hole in Xiao Bo's chest.

Matthew chuckled to himself.

He had already noticed that this guy used magic to stick a lot of useless bones on the outside to form a layer of artificial "bone armor".

This thing is not very brittle, it will fall off as soon as it is touched, and it is easy to misunderstand the enemy during the battle.

For example, the Ashes Warlord just now.

In fact, he had a chance to evade the sharp edge temporarily, but after the first blow, he thought he had really seriously injured Xiao Bo, so he went up and fought to the end.

In fact, only Matthew knows that Xiao Bo's core skeleton is inside!
As long as the core is not damaged.

No matter how the outer bones fall, they are all smoke bombs!

"No wonder he gained so much weight during this meeting. It turned out that he put on a circle of fat for himself after becoming the boss."

"I don't know how much "bone tax" this guy collected from his subordinates in order to collect so many bones? "

Matthew even suspected that the ring of bone armor still had the effect of selling misery!

at this time.

The undead army withdrew from Scar of the Dead one after another.

Only Xiao Bo remained inside.

Matthew saw that he took a few steps deeper, and suddenly, he raised his bone wings and flapped them vigorously.

With the cooperation of dragon language magic.

A small wind blew up.

That gust of wind blew up the ashes on the ground of the Scar of the Dead, engulfing them and flying towards the direction of the oak forest!

Matthew was puzzled at first.

But soon he realized Xiao Bo's real intention!

The ashes from Scar of the Dead flew into the forest like snowflakes, and after sinking into the ground, the whole oak forest seemed to come alive suddenly!
All the oak trees thanked the source of the wind of ashes in unison.

Although they soon discovered in astonishment that it was a bone dragon.

But the voice of thanks is still endless.

In the past, Matthew could only see this kind of scene when he activated the natural domain, but now it happened in the non-domain state, not only himself, but other people could hear the voices of the oaks!

He couldn't help but turn on the balance perception.

……

"Equilibrium Perception: You perceive that the ashes of the ashes after death contain a lot of life elements!
The wind of ashes infused the oak forest and its land with a strong life energy (the effect is approximately equal to 0.5 "Natural Ritual: Sanctuary of Life")
The field reputation of you and your summoned Philoreus +1 (oak tree)"

……

It turned out to be the case.

It was only at this moment that Matthew could tell clearly that not every part that fell from the ashes creature was harmful to the outside world!

Ember warriors drop Soul Orbs, and normal Ember creatures drop Life Energy.

Only the sparks produced by the activities of ashes are the carriers of the power of destruction.

This discovery made Matthew ecstatic.

in his eyes.

Mark of the Dead is becoming more and more valuable!

Matthew also wanted to ask Xiao Bo how he knew this feature, but considering the other party's expressive ability, he could only give up temporarily.

After working diligently on the puppet blower.

Only then did Xiao Bo rush towards Matthew in big strides.

The undead army moved upon hearing the news.

They followed Philorees neatly, like a forbidden army.

This scene made everyone around me nervous.

So Matthew also took the initiative to greet him.

After meeting one person and one dragon, Xiao Bo prostrated himself on the ground courteously, and lowered his head to the ground as he did when they first met.

Matthew reached out and touched his neck.

"Master, don't, suddenly, leave..."

Xiao Bo's anxious voice came from the contract side.

"That was a misunderstanding, and it shouldn't happen in the future."

Matthew didn't explain much.

"That's good!"

When this thought came, Xiao Boil, whose head was lying on the ground, suddenly let out a sharp hiss!
The two bone dragons took the lead and crawled on the ground.

The other units of the Undead Legion followed suit.

The skeleton knelt on one knee, the zombie knelt on the ground, and the banshee sat cross-legged.

Only the mummy was the most pitiful. He could only lie on his stomach straight, with his head and chest knocked to the ground.

All the undead creatures knelt in front of Matthew.

The scene really shocked the others.

"Lord Rhaegar, is he the necromancer with a bone dragon you mentioned?"

Asma couldn't help but asked in a low voice.

Rhaegar seemed to be used to big scenes, and the old god replied emphatically:

"Yeah, I said he had one, but I didn't say he only had one!"

Asma said speechlessly:

"This is not the key, the key is that it is a bone dragon king!"

"You should understand what the undead king means to the material world, right?"

Rega glanced at him:
"forget."

Asma was about to speak, but was held back by Du Lin next to her, who shook her head and said:

"Don't talk too much, even if your worry is correct, didn't you see that necromancer obeyed the undead king's training?"

Asma just wanted to refute.

next second.

They saw the bone dragon suddenly opened its mouth——

Whoa!
Thirty high-purity soul crystals slipped out from inside.

"This is what was seized just now, master, please accept it!"

This time, Philoreus actually spoke it in the common language!
Everyone present could hear it clearly.

Matthew looked at the soul crystal on the ground in surprise.

Of course he saw those ashes warriors who were killed, but he didn't have the nerve to ask Xiaobo for it, but this guy actually turned it in on his own initiative!
Matthew pondered:
"Why don't you take half of it?"

Xiao Bo resolutely refused:
"I am your humblest servant, and even I am your private property. There is no reason in this world for a servant to take away the spoils of the master. Please accept it."

Matthew was surprised that Xiao Bo's lingua franca became more and more fluent, and also lamented his loyalty.

After Xiao Bo finished these two sentences.

Matthew could immediately feel a little more awe in the eyes of everyone behind him looking at him.

This feeling is still a little cool.

next moment.

Xiao Bo said goodbye to Matthew gracefully and politely, and then left through the negative energy channel with a mighty undead army.

When the last undead disappeared in the negative energy vortex.

A brand new reminder also flashed before Matthew's eyes.

……

"Reminder: Philoreus activated the ability "Flaster".

You got 34 soul crystals!
Undead Contract: Your summoned Philoreus took the initiative to go out, and his courage is commendable. He and his undead army made an indelible contribution to the eradication of the Ash Legion. In this battle, not only his undead army appeared There was a certain reduction in staff, and even he himself was seriously injured.

This is not good news for him who is about to face challenges from several undead lords around him after returning to the negative energy plane.

Because of this, Philoreus sincerely begs you for a reward on behalf of his undead subordinates——

15 soul crystals, do you want to pay?

(Hint: Philoreus has activated the ability "Sell Miserably")"

……

Good guy!
"So I was waiting here!"

"I've given me face in front of outsiders, and turned around to ask for salary in the name of my subordinates. The figure is just half of what I said and a little less. This guy's EQ is almost full from the negative energy plane!"

Matthew smiled inwardly.

Xiao Bo asked for money afterwards, but he was relieved.

After payment in full.

Matthew hurried to check the situation of the experimental field.

Fortunately, the scorched land of death has not been damaged, only the boundary stone, which is the pillar for communicating with the negative energy plane, has been overdrawn so much that it probably won't last for a few days.

This is also normal, maintaining a plane channel has never been an easy task.

The cost of a boundary stone is more than 300 gold coins. Compared with the 19 soul crystals he got, Matthew still made a lot of money.

While the ceremony is still functioning normally.

Matthew quickly recorded the relevant information and key points. These things can come in handy when applying for projects to the alliance.

In general.

The ceremony was considered a complete success.

Matthew gradually verified the feasibility of "using the scorched earth of death to contain the traces of the dead", and accidentally discovered the secrets of "Ash" and "Mars" from Xiaobo.

afterwards.

It took him another night to organize these contents into a decent application for opening a topic according to the template.

The next day, Matthew formally applied to the Alliance for delaying the expansion project of Death Scar through the Alliance's office in the Crucible House through the A1 channel. At the same time, he did not forget to hand in the crystal ball recording the ceremony to the small black room , so Isabel can see it.

Another day passed.

Matthew received the good news that the application was approved and the project was approved!
He went to the Crucible House and received the first project funds distributed by the Alliance from David.

Just the initial allocation of funds, there are enough 3000 gold coins!

According to David, as long as Matthew completes the preparations for the follow-up work—mainly the preparation of spell materials and the recruitment of apprentices, the follow-up funds will be available soon.

The total funding for this project is around 30000 gold coins.

Matthew can request to add more at any time.

During the project, the only obligation Matthew needs to fulfill is to recruit as many apprentices as possible and ensure their safety during the ceremony.

Here's what David had to say about it:
"Not every apprentice can become a mage useful to the alliance, but the alliance needs to incubate more talents through a huge base. Recruiting apprentices is beneficial to you and has no harm. You only need to ensure their basic life safety , and others, even if you treat them as undead, it’s not impossible.”

"If you recruit enough apprentices, even when the project is settled, there will be additional knowledge points bonus. Of course, I don't recommend blindly recruiting people, after all, it is easy to cause trouble when there are too many people. The number of necromancers in China is very small, and the same is true for apprentices. There may be more apprentices who have also practiced necromancy. I suggest that you disclose the corresponding conditions when recruiting, so as to facilitate and faster screening. "

"If you don't mind, Mr. Matthew, I can do most of the preliminary work, including the procurement of materials and the determination of the initial roster. Of course, the final interview still needs to be decided by you."

Matthew was used to David's attentions.

Because he has gradually realized the scarcity of A1, the entire league will not have more than 1 A10s in the South, and even Blinken's original title in the league was only B2.

This discovery made Matthew both happy and disturbed.

He couldn't be sure of Ekmond's intention of over-promoting himself. It might be just to please Isabel, but there might be other thoughts.

It's just that before Ronan returns, Matthew can only choose to work hard.

In the end, Matthew handed over most of the preparatory work to David.

Only when the initial big list was determined, Matthew stuffed a small note into David's hand and asked him to write the names on the note into the big list in advance.

Of course, Matthew didn't really want to unspoken rules for the girl named Leslie.

He was only impressed by the other party's boldness and bravery.

Anyway, they are just looking for a group of apprentices to paddle, so it's better to give her a chance.

I just don't know how well Leslie has mastered necromancy.

the next few days.

Matthew spends most of his time in the oak grove, occasionally visiting the Crucible House to check on the readiness of the project.

In addition to planting trees, he is also taking the time to learn new spells.

The most important of them are two third-level spells, "Disintegration" and "Estriol's Claw".

Perhaps because it is also related to the field of deformation, Matthew's dissociation technique is quite difficult to learn.

He had to admit that he lacked talent in the field of transformation.

If it weren't for Rhaegar's divine assist, he would probably still be tortured by the malicious transformation technique.

The same goes for dissociation.

As far as Matthew knew, this was a controversial spell.

The Schools of Conjuration and Transfiguration are both vying for ownership of Disintegration.

The former believes that the principle of dissociation is to manipulate energy changes in the form of mantras, so that any non-living objects will collapse from the inside, and eventually become a cloud of dust.

This is of course a spell.

The latter believes that the real principle of the dissociation technique is to turn any inanimate object touched by the energy of the spell into a cloud of dust.

This is supposed to be a deformation.

Cleverly.

Whether starting from the theory of conjuration or from the perspective of transformation, mages have the ability to master the dissociation technique.

Therefore, this spell has become a popular magic skill necessary for middle and low-level mages to single out.

After all, in a mage duel, mana itself is nothing, and the endless props and equipment are the most important.

Disintegration, a spell that specifically melts equipment and disintegrates props, can greatly flatten the gap between rich and poor mages.

A mage who is keen on fighting is a must-have.

The reason why Matthew learned this spell was also because it was mentioned in the introduction of the crash course on combat spells that he reported that disintegration is one of the few compulsory combat spells.

He belongs to preview in advance.

It's a pity that his talent in this area is really mediocre, so far he hasn't been able to do the first step of dissociation - turning a magnet into a cloud of dust.

A few times he practiced spells late into the night and got sleepy, and accidentally turned a magnet into a goat.

After experiencing the thrill of almost being pinched.

Matthew silently ramped up his nightly need for coffee.

And compared to dissociation.

The Claw of Estel, a necromantic spell, can be said to be handy for Matthew to learn.

In just two days, he successfully mastered this spell.

The effect of this spell is to control a four-clawed tentacle with negative energy with magical energy. Because of the negative energy, once this tentacle gets close to a living thing, it will cause many negative effects on the enemy;

On the other hand, Estel's Claw can also grab, hug, throw, etc. the target in the form of physical strikes.

In general.

The Claw of Estel is the spell version of the Pale Hand. It is characterized by a longer attack distance, with a maximum distance of 32 meters, and most of the spells have a casting distance between 20 and 28 meters.

What Matthew likes is that it is relatively long.

In addition, the effect of Claw of Estel is more stable. Although it lacks the instant death judgment, the attribute that can make the enemy negative effect make up for it.

It's a pity that spells or abilities in the same domain cannot be reconciled, otherwise Matthew really wants to see what kind of powerful abilities can be summoned by the Claw of Estel and the Hand of Paleness.

Time flies by in the daily tree planting and spell learning.

night time.

With a smile on his face, Matthew led Renesme into the cabin.

It's that time of the week again.

The number of trees he planted this week is not many, there are only 11 chances to strengthen, but there should be opportunities to produce purple and gold.

Matthew sat on the edge of the bed.

He was just about to raise his hand to strengthen Renesme.

However, at this time, Matthew suddenly saw a lonely shadow outside the window.

He fixed his eyes.

It was A Bing lying at the window, silently looking at himself and Renesmee.

There was actually a faint trace of grievance in the soul fire.
