The necromancer just wants to plant trees.

Chapter 135 Are you the illegitimate child of some important person?
……

"To make a long story short, the gossip told me that a team of drow assassins secretly sneaked into Rolling Stone Town this evening. I'm not sure where they are, but considering the special nature of drow, they will definitely do it tonight;

In addition, since I left Deep Blue Harbor, there have been two killers from the Hades religion following me all the way. I thought they would do something on the way, but they didn't.

Until I entered Rolling Stone Town, especially when the dance just started, I felt a strong murderous intent.

It looked like they were trying to kill Aliena here.

While achieving the goal, you can also pour a bucket of dirty water on the head of Rolling Stone Town by the way.

As far as I can tell, they will do it in the second half of the dance, between eleven and one.

Of course, this time is not absolutely accurate, after all, I am not a prophet. "

In the locker room, Lorraine said quickly.

Matthew nodded solemnly.

If it's drow assassins, then the South Trading Post must be under threat.

According to Hongtu Mountain's experience in attacking the golden wilderness, they would often kill all the lords through beheading tactics first, and then launch a large army to attack.

Since the assassins are already on their way, the army must not be far away.

If Lorraine's information is true, it is of great significance to Rolling Stone Town.

"So, besides reminding us of the assassin crisis, you are also Ms. Aliena's spokesperson?"

Matthew asked.

Lorraine shrugged:

"Not entirely. I have my own will. Negotiating with Aliena is only one of the purposes of my coming to Rolling Stone Town. Once this content is completed, the matter of Deep Blue Harbor will have nothing to do with me.

In fact, Aliena herself wants to come here in person. She does have some feelings for your lord, but I rejected her proposal to let me sit in Deep Blue Harbor. The place is really boring, and playing dark politics with a group of old men is not my favorite project.

In comparison, Rolling Stone Town, where major incidents may break out at any time, is my favorite place. I can feel that it is full of vitality.

Is there any profession that loves big news more than a poet?

Oh, sorry Matthew, I'm not expecting something big in Rolling Stone, it's just the way things are going.

The news of Ronan's fall into the star realm has been spreading in the south. At first, people didn't believe it, but now it has been further confirmed by all parties.

After losing the southern guardian, the entire southern land is in chaos, and Rolling Stone Town may not be able to survive alone. As far as I know, many criminal organizations from the east coast regard Rolling Stone Town as a fat sheep, and they have sent spies to you to inquire about the situation.

Losing the blessing of a legendary mage, the future of Rolling Stone Town can be described as precarious, but don't be afraid, for your sake, Rolling Stone Town is about to welcome a great legendary poet! "

Lorraine used Aliena's female voice.

But the grandiosity of the conversation still felt familiar to Matthew.

Seeing him so confident, Matthew couldn't help but joked:

"May I ask, Your Excellency the Legendary Poet, who is better at fighting, you or Mr. Ronan?"

Lorraine said decisively:
"I!"

"Less than one-tenth of him!"

Immediately he complained:

"You want a poet to compete with a mage? That's not fair! I'm good at other fields."

Matthew topped it off:
"You mean fraud?"

As if Lorraine didn't hear the thorn in Matthew's words, he still said shamelessly:
"I mean art!"

"Poets are born for art. There is no reason for us to compete with those vulgar mages in the field of battle. It is a blasphemy against art."

Matthew recalled with a smile:
"I remember that even in the Age of Enlightenment, the goddess in charge of art eventually became one of the harem of the God of War. It seems that art really cannot be profaned."

Lorraine touched his chin:

"Is there such a thing? This shows that war may be a higher-level art."

While the two were chatting, a little black cat suddenly jumped out of the glass window of the dressing room.

It came in without saying a word, its hind legs were on the ground, its forelimbs were straightened up, and its head was raised, just looking at the two of them eagerly.

"Is it your cat?"

Lorraine asked casually.

When Matthew saw Eli, he couldn't help but laugh. He wanted to go forward to pick up the little black cat, but as soon as Matthew approached, it quickly backed away a few steps.

It still didn't speak, just looked at Matthew and Lorraine faintly.

"Are you two having a conflict?"

Lorraine asked curiously.

Matthew sighed:
"He's a Druid, and he has a little affection for Ms. Alena you dressed up as."

Lorland suddenly showed a look of chills. He stretched out his palm to the kitten, trying to cover the other's eyes, and warned sternly:

"Don't get mad at me! Boy! I know you druids are wild, but I'm a conservative."

This time, he used a male voice.

Eli looked at him in surprise.

He turned to look at Matthew again.

Matthew spread his hands helplessly:
"I just found out that Ms. Alena was disguised by a man, and this guy happens to be a friend I know. He brought important information to Rolling Stone Town. Eli, I'm afraid I've disappointed you again."

The little black cat was stunned for a moment, then shook its head violently:
"No, I don't believe it!"

"Miss Aliena, can you bring me closer..."

The voice did not fall.

Lorraine impatiently unzipped the zipper on the side of her skirt, and the skirt on her upper body suddenly slipped off.

"Ah, is this something I can watch?"

The little black cat's voice trembled slightly, and his nose became extremely moist.

But the next second.

A mass of heart-shaped chest hair caught his eye.

"I told you not to be in love with me! Young man, my master is a man, and his capital is much bigger than yours!"

Lorraine quickly put on her clothes and adjusted her wig by the way.

His actions can be described as amorous.

However, the little black cat had completely froze in place.

"This is impossible!"

He let out a hysterical scream.

"Are you all right, Eli?"

Matthew asked with concern.

"I'm fine, Matthew."

The little black cat replied.

As he spoke, his limbs went limp, and together with his tail, he lay on the floor as if he had been slapped flat.

"Isn't it? Even if the illusion of love is shattered, it won't be so depressed, right?"

Lorraine looked at the little black cat with great interest.

Matthew coughed:
"Eli is still very young, he is only seventeen or eighteen."

"His recent, uh, strictly speaking, his emotional path has not been very smooth."

Lorraine suddenly realized:

"That's really the age when he should be in heat. When I was his age, I would just lick a beautiful woman when I saw her.

This is human nature, you don't have to feel inferior, when you experience more women, you won't be as sad as you are now.

I am very tolerant to boys your age, if there is anything that needs help, please feel free to mention it to me.

Matthew's friends can be regarded as half of my friends, and I am very loyal. "

The little black cat was refreshed when he heard the words:
"really?"

Lorraine nodded:

"of course."

The little black cat asked eagerly:

"Then can you maintain Ms. Aliena's appearance and voice forever? I don't plan to do anything, I just want to be by her side..."

"roll!"

Lorraine nearly kicked him away.

Presently he complained to Matthew:

"I know the flowers their druids are playing with, I shouldn't have a heart of mercy!"

Seeing Eli slumped down again.

Matthew talked to Lorraine about the business:

"We have to let Rhaegar know about the assassin, but if I'm the only one dictating it, I'm afraid he won't be able to react for a while."

Lorraine agreed:
"Better get someone to call him in."

The two looked at each other, and then cast their eyes on the little black cat on the ground.

Matthew coughed:
"Eli, are you okay?"

The little black cat replied weakly:
"I'm fine, Matthew. I'm a person who has already sealed my heart. Almost falling in love with a man will not make me depressed. I am much stronger than you expected. I have nothing wrong with me."

Matthew then asked:

"Then can you help me call Rhaegar in?"

The little black cat replied bluntly:
"No."

Matthew asked:
"why?"

The little black cat replied softly:

"Because my heart hurts!"

"Do you have to expose my hard-spoken words?"

"Give me a break... woo, my lady Aliena... woo, why woo."

A low sob came.

Matthew couldn't bear it, so he gently activated the oak tree domain, hoping to use the power of nature to heal Eli.

But the next second.

Eli's body trembled, and he froze in place as if his soul had ascended to heaven.

……

"Hint: With your help, your partner Eli managed to visit the natural sub-domain "Oaks"!
Current Status: Visiting/First Exploration"

……

Does this work too?
Matthew was startled at first, but it was reasonable to think about it later. After all, Eli got the resonance of the oak tree field by mistake in the incident with Samantha.

The state of mind this time is so similar to the last time, breaking through the shackles of the field in one breath is also a matter of smooth sailing.

It's just that Eli got into the field because of a blessing in disguise.

Then the matter of notifying Rhaegar can only fall on Matthew himself.

At the moment, he and Lorraine tidied up their clothes.

Matthew carefully pushed open the door of the locker room, he was going to sneak out when no one was looking.

But the moment the door was pushed open, he knew he had made a mistake!

Although the entrance was not crowded with people, almost all the prominent men in Rolling Stone Town were crowded in the porch between the dance floor and the corridor.

They seem to be talking to each other, but in fact, those sharp eyes are looking at the door of the locker room all the time.

As soon as Matthew pushed the door, everyone stared at him.

Including Rhaegar.

Matthew had no choice but to act accordingly, he waved to Rhaegar and said:

"Ms. Aliena's foot injury is more serious than expected. I can't handle it alone. Rhaegar, can you come and help me?"

When everyone heard this, their eyes glowed like wild wolves at night.

"What kind of nonsense is this?"

"Don't look at what he said, but look at what he did. To sum it up, he said he couldn't handle it, and he wanted Lei to add it."

"Matthew looks very young, why is he so unbearable?"

Matthew ignored the harsh whispers and looked at Rhaegar silently.

Lei Jia obviously wanted to come in, but he was still swaying. An angry Matthew rushed forward:
"You come in for me!"

He dragged Rhaegar inside.

boom!
The locker room door was slammed shut again.

Everyone shrunk their necks subconsciously.

After a while.

The sign hanging on the door trembled slightly.

Everyone showed meaningful expressions.

behind the door.

While patting the door frame lightly, Matthew explained the ins and outs of the matter to Rega as quickly as possible, and added:

"In order not to make the assassins suspicious, I can only sacrifice my reputation."

Rega looked at the two and the cat dazedly:
"What the hell are you talking about? It's an assassin again, and it belongs to a man."

For a long time.

Under Matthew's profuse tongue-in-cheek and Lorraine's undressing.

He finally figured out the situation.

"You mean, Aliena sent her cousin to dress up as her to bring disaster to the east, and negotiate with me by the way, and it turned out that her cousin happened to be your friend? And then your friend claimed that our ball will be attacked by assassins? That's right, right?"

Rhaegar stared at Lorraine suspiciously.

Lorraine waved his hand:

"That's the way it is. On behalf of Aliena, I would like to express my apologies to you. I believe you can also understand her difficulties."

Rhaegar thought for a while:
"I can understand Aliena's difficulties, but I doubt your intelligence."

"The law and order in Rolling Stone Town has always been very good. I have never seen any assassins or killers."

Matthew reminded:
"The drow assassin unit that Lorraine mentioned matches the rumors about the Red Earth Mountain we discussed earlier, so we have to guard against it."

Rhaegar nodded upon hearing the words:

"You're right, so what should we do?"

Lorraine replied:

"It's very simple. The targets of the assassins on both sides are you and me respectively, so let us stay together for the rest of the night."

"We can't be in the dressing room all the time, the assassins will be suspicious, but we can't mix in the crowd, which may accidentally injure others."

"Is there any open space near here, suitable for assassins to do it?"

Rhaegar immediately replied:

"Next to it is the back garden, but usually no one takes care of it, most of the landscape has been abandoned, only some weeds, it's okay to look at at night, it's not too dilapidated."

Lorraine said decisively:
"That's it, the two of us went to the back garden to lure the assassin."

"Matthew, go and inform other reliable helpers to prepare."

The three discussed quickly for a while.

Soon.

The three deliberately creased some details of the clothes, and then left the dressing room one after another under the eyes of everyone.

In order to prevent anyone from disturbing Eli who is comprehending the mysteries of the domain.

Matthew also thoughtfully locked the glass door and the main door of the dressing room.

After that, the dance will continue as usual.

It's just that people's gazes on Matthew, Rhaegar and "Alena" became a little ambiguous.

Not long after leaving the locker room.

In front of everyone, Rhaegar invited Ms. Aliena to go around the back garden.

Everyone wisely did not follow.

They could only secretly look at their blurred backs through the porch gap between the second hall and the back garden, and feel that Ms. Alena really knows how to play.

Time passed little by little.

Matthew danced a dance with Judy, and was finally relieved after being dismissed by the latter.

He sat alone on the sofa by the dance floor, quietly observing the flow of people in the hall.

Sif had left the ball an hour earlier.

She looked very sleepy.

He just said hello to Matthew and left.

Before leaving.

She also seemed a little sullen.

Matthew could only sigh deeply.

At this time, the hands of the wall clock opposite the sofa pointed to eleven o'clock.

Matthew narrowed his eyes slightly:
"If there are assassins, it's almost time to do it."

He didn't use his skills, but only used his perception to search for suspicious people.

But the process has yielded little.

After all, Matthew is not a professional wanderer, and it is difficult to distinguish a master who is proficient in transformation or makeup.

"I should have brought Lyra here. She knows the drow's scent very well."

"If Eli didn't enter the field, he also has this ability."

Matthew thought with regret.

The pointer on the wall clock is walking diligently.

after an hour.

There were fewer people on the dance floor, some of them flowed to other dressing rooms in the corridor, and some of the older people left one after another.

Matthew looked at the audience suspiciously.

He has so far failed to find a trace of the assassin.

Could it be that Lorraine's information was wrong?
"It's unlikely."

Matthew has seen the power of "gossip". After experiencing the Zeshui City incident, Lorraine was successfully promoted to a demigod, and the related abilities must have been further strengthened.

And he has no reason to lie about such things.

But where did the assassin go?

A trace of determination appeared in Matthew's eyes:
"What a tolerant assassin!"

"Let me see, how long are you willing to hide!"

He glanced back in the direction of the back garden.

Rhaegar and Lorraine had already turned seven or eight times in a pile of weeds, and it looked like they would have to turn around a little longer.

"Let them in in a while, there are not many people on the dance floor, and turning around in one place all the time will also arouse suspicion from others."

Matthew yawned at the thought.

Another hour passed.

It was one o'clock in the morning.

Still no trace of the assassin.

The battlefield between Rhaegar and Lorraine has moved from the back garden to the dance floor, and the two danced back and forth with various dances that Matthew had never seen before.

have to say.

Rhaegar's acting skills are also considered professional, and he looks as if he is really fascinated by Aliena's beauty.

The two jumped to the point of exhaustion.

In the end, he lay down on Matthew's sofa without any image.

The three stared at each other on the sofa.

Matthew rubbed his eyes in a daze, and asked:

"what time is it?"

Rhaegar replied feebly:

"03:30 in the morning."

"So, where did the assassin go?"

Lorraine still looked energetic, but his eyes were also full of doubts:
"Impossible, my gossip has never been wrong!"

"There must be a team of drow assassins and two Hades killers who entered Rolling Stone Town, planning to do it tonight."

The three looked around.

Except for the yawning defensive players and a few excited town youths who were playing with Judy, there was no one in the hall.

"I'm afraid we've made a fool of ourselves."

Lorraine said seriously:
"There must be a problem in some link, and it was exposed, so the assassins chose to retreat."

Rhaegar stared at him uncomfortably:
"It must have been exposed because of you, you obviously can't play a woman!"

Lorraine asked back:
"I can't, can you?"

Rhaegar answered logically:
"I'm good at playing men."

Lorraine was speechless.

After a while.

Even the crazy young people broke up, and Judy went back to the posthouse to rest under the escort of two knights.

It was time for the defense team to change shifts.

There were only three of them left in the hall.

Matthew yawned heavily.

"You said that if a team of assassins came out from the shadows at this time, would the three of us be able to handle it?"

Rhaegar asked suddenly.

Lorraine was about to taunt, but at this moment, the hearts of the three of them tightened, because there was a burst of fierce footsteps coming from the direction of the corridor!
Someone is trotting!
The three of them looked at each other and got up immediately, but the next second they saw a guard running over in a hurry from the entrance.

He came to Rega and hurriedly reported:

"My lord, Mr. Richard is leading a group of dark people outside to ask for an audience!"

……

"When I went out to buy vegetables tonight, I passed by the back wall of the post house and found a few little thieves poking around behind, so I arrested them."

"I was worried that they still had helpers, so I followed the vine and caught the remaining ones."

"I wanted to send them directly to the prison, but considering that the skin color of these little thieves is wrong, let's hand it over to the lord first."

The gate of the post house.

Richard, who was dressed in a tuxedo, was still leaning on the exquisite cane, his waist was straight, and his tone of voice was as rigid as ever.

At this time, he was still holding a long rope in his right hand.

There were six drow and two humans bound to the rope.

They knelt on the ground in unison.

After hearing this, let alone Matthew, even the "thieves" on the ground were speechless.

Going out to buy groceries in the middle of the night... This excuse is too casual!

Before Rega could speak.

Lorraine suddenly said in surprise:

"So the assassins are here with you!"

"You are the Silver Snake? "

Richard also glanced at him in surprise, and he subconsciously grasped his cane:

"Newly promoted demigod? "Twilight Chanting"? "

The two suddenly stopped talking and just looked at each other.

Matthew could see the deep fear in their eyes.

After a while.

Lorraine suddenly smiled and said:

"Rolling Stone Town is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger. After losing the protection of the legendary mage Ronan, another legendary wanderer of the "Silver Snake" level came. "

Richard looked at Matthew and complimented him calmly:
"This is your friend?"

"You have a very wide network of people. In the era when the Tianlun Palace was ascending, it was already very difficult to meet demigods."

Lorraine also looked at Matthew with a smile:

"Fortunately, I was still worried about the safety of you and Rolling Stone Town, so I hurried over here. Now it seems that I was worrying too much."

"You don't know other legends, do you?"

Matthew wanted to answer.

At this moment, a snowy owl flew over with a letter in its mouth.

As soon as Matthew raised his hand to grab the letter, the latter exploded with a bang, turning into a large feather.

This is a magic letter.

A white light condensed among the flying feathers.

quickly.

Inside appeared the image of a white-robed mage.

The man smiled and said to Matthew:
"Hello, Matthew, the list of the first batch of visits to the Scar of the Dead project has been confirmed, and the specific time is in the paper letter."

"I will lead the team personally during Jieshi, you won't welcome it?"

"Yo, it's quite lively over there."

"Then I won't bother you any more."

The voice fell.

The figure of the white-robed mage slowly dissipated.

The remaining feathers were gathered again into a paper letter and fell into Matthew's hands.

"Matthew?"

Lorraine's voice sounded a little dry:

"If I'm not mistaken, that person just now couldn't be—?"

See Richard also has the same doubts.

Matthew had no choice but to answer truthfully:
"His name is Ekmond, and he is the head mage of the Floating Void City in the Extreme North."

However, immediately afterwards, Richard replaced the horse and filled up the remaining titles:
"Level 26 upper legend!

The existence of seven people under the Seven Saints Alliance and more than ten thousand people!
Guardian of the White Robe, Archmage of Light, Number One Killer of Fallen Demons, Founder of Floating Void City, Founder of Aurora Blade, Master of Giant Beast Leviathan, Archmage of the Star Realm, Resident Traveler of the Arcane Wilderness, Gatekeeper of the Abyss, Prisoner of the Divine Mage..."

"Yes, we all know him as Eckmonde."

"The question now is, Matthew, which big man's illegitimate son are you?"

……
