The necromancer just wants to plant trees.

Chapter 156 Descendants of the World Tree
……

Matthew chose three without hesitation.

"How can there be a necromancer who doesn't choose archaeology?"

In an instant.

A large amount of knowledge about the tomb poured into his head, and after a slight tingling, he felt hearty and refreshing.

This feeling is amazing.

This knowledge seems to have been integrated into his blood, and extracting it has become Matthew's instinct.

as long as he wants.

He can instantly become an expert in burial science!
And besides knowledge.

Matthew also got three coordinates.

The first coordinate is located in the depths of the Helen Mountains in the north-central part of the Aindor continent, where the two-headed ogre happened to be active before;

The second coordinate is in the south. Matthew made a quick comparison and found that this thing is probably deep in the rain forest. It is obviously the one of King Mingtan. According to Yu Lian, there is a dragon tomb underneath;
The last coordinate is on the Outer Planes.

Matthew took out a book on coordinates and read it, and found that it was a tomb located in the Arcane Wilderness.

in three tombs.

The tomb of King Mingtan was first ruled out by Matthew, and Blinken was still squatting in it, not to mention the tomb of the dragon was involved, who knew how dangerous it was.

Leaving aside the outer planes, Matthew doesn't have that ability.

The only one suitable for recent archeology is the one in the Helen Mountains.

That place is about two or three thousand miles away.

A map suddenly appeared in Matthew's mind:
Starting from Rolling Stone Town, head north all the way, pass through Rapids City, pass through the current royal city of the wood elves, Jade Cangtang and the former royal city, the Garden of Fallen Leaves, cross the rotten highland and the lake of the dead, and cross the 800-mile-long plateau corridor. It is the most famous cold mountain pass that runs through the north and south of the mainland.

Passing through the Hanshan Pass, the Helen Mountains, one of the central mountains, will appear in the field of vision.

"The normal journey is indeed quite far, but there is a legendary mage tower near the cold mountain pass, so it should be possible to reach there by teleportation—provided that the legendary mage's consent must be obtained."

Matthew rubbed his temples, feeling a little regretful.

The locations of the tombs are too far away, and there seems to be no archaeological possibility in the short term.

It would be nice if it was in the South.

But when he thought about it carefully, he was very clear about the situation in the south. There had never been a powerful city-state or political power, and the possibility of a large tomb in history was extremely low.

The situation in the north is different.

Although the north also did not establish a real human country, due to the perennial harassment of barbarians, the northern cities were under greater pressure from war.

under these circumstances.

In the history of the North, it is said that there were several city-states similar to the country.

They already have the basic form of a country, the only thing missing is a formal declaration.

The centralization of power in a similar state is one of the necessary conditions for the emergence of the tomb.

Therefore, it is indeed more reasonable for the large tomb to appear in the north than in the south.

……

"Hint (Grave Field): You have gained a permanent status "peer smell".

Sense of smell: You are extremely sensitive to the smell of your peers. When necromancers, archaeologists, and tomb robbers appear within ten kilometers of you, you will automatically sense their locations and refresh their coordinates every 6 hours "

……

This is in good shape.

Although it is aimed at a certain group of people, the 24-hour free automatic radar is still very useful.

The only thing that makes Matthew feel dissatisfied is that.

"Why is the tomb robber also my colleague?"

"I obviously haven't had time to do that kind of thing."

It can be seen that the judgment of the tomb field is somewhat unintelligent.

Come back to your senses.

Matthew sorted out the tombstones in the stone area.

Tombstones are a good thing.

At present, the tombstones have not been saturated. After there is no shortage of tombstones for the undead in the cemetery, he plans to make a large batch and store them in the warehouse.

Zombies have a great demand for tombstones, and there may not be enough manpower, especially the mutated tombstone zombies. Last time, Matthew found that he was actually carrying two tombstones on his back.

One of them was given by Matthew, and the other one was naturally taken by him.

The needs of skeletons are lower, but usually 3~5 skeletons sharing a tombstone is the limit.

The above two kinds of undead Matthew are temporarily providing tombstones for free.

Ghost is different.

They also need tombstones, but they have to exchange for them through their own labor.

After all, it is not a direct descendant.

Matthew will also have to pass a period of time to observe whether they are really loyal.

Don't say anything else.

That elite ghost named Ali is definitely not a generation that is easy to be inferior to others.

When he introduced the "Zandar Ghost Family" to himself, his tone was full of pride, and he obviously agreed with that concept.

This is certainly not a good thing for Matthew.

What he needs is a group of undead subordinates who are completely obedient.

Rather than some intelligent undead who is full of nostalgia for the ghost family in the past.

Matthew originally planned to let Ah Piao take over Ali's position and become the boss of the ghost area.

However, A Piao is shy by nature, and he is unwilling to leave Matthew's luggage no matter what. In the end, Matthew can only let the little wolves guard day and night.

Leave the stone area.

Matthew only felt pain in his back and back.

After applying oil for a long time, and making a tombstone for a long time, he couldn't stand it even with the medicine to replenish his strength.

Even so, he still walked around the cemetery as usual.

"Although the cemetery is large, it is still a bit empty after all. Many buildings actually have the foundation for construction, but it is a pity that there is a lack of construction personnel."

Matthew was a little helpless.

No matter what kind of undead are not suitable for delicate construction work.

Once again, he imagined how wonderful it would be if he had a construction team of gray dwarves.

Except for the construction team.

Matthew also began to think about one thing for the first time——

Do you need an assistant?

A successful mage will never lack assistants and apprentices.

The latter can do some repetitive and mechanical work for the mage.

This can greatly liberate yourself, so that you can devote your time to more meaningful things.

Necromancer Henry is actually a good candidate.

But he rebelled from Hongtu Mountain, and Matthew was not sure about his loyalty. For safety reasons, he was arranged by the Big Three in Rolling Stone Town at the South Trading Station. On the surface, he was asked to monitor the situation in Hongtu Mountain, but in fact Send others to monitor Henry.

Henry himself probably knew this too.

He's been very active lately.

But more time testing is needed.

"Perhaps, it's not impossible to recruit two apprentices from the alliance. Although I can't give too many gold coins as subsidies, I can still get the knowledge points."

What kind of apprentice can meet all your needs?

Matthew was lost in thought.

……

night.

Matthew's figure appeared in the oak forest.

The moonlight is bright tonight.

far away.

He saw the centaur Obest patrolling the south, and Obest was very serious. He had to personally check every oak tree to ensure that it was not harmed by insects.

The guy is also very proud.

Matthew hardly saw him usually, and considering that the other party spent most of his time patrolling the oak forest, Matthew once suspected that Obest was hiding from him.

Obest stayed for Lulu, and Matthew knew this very well, but the other party's performance was a bit too much.

"Forget it, it's okay to be arrogant. Eli was also very proud at the beginning."

Glancing at each other with Matthew, the figure of the centaur quickly disappeared into the woods.

Matthew didn't bother with him but came to the guards of the oak trees.

Oak Guard has two modes, one is Oak and the other is Guard.

The former is the regular oak tree form, during which the oak tree guards will accumulate energy;

The latter is in the form of a treant. Maintaining the form of a treant requires a lot of energy. The stronger the oak tree guards, the more so, so they usually only appear in the forest in the form of oak trees.

After killing the Wither Cult, Matthew has 440 strengthening experience points in his hand, which is enough to strengthen an oak tree or an oak tree guard 22 times.

He intends to follow his past decisions and pick an oak guard for concentrated investment.

The man-eating tree was directly ruled out by Matthew.

Matthew already had many powerful undead under his command. For the Oak Guard, his requirements were defense and stability above all else.

The uncertainty of strengthening the man-eating tree is too high, and it does not meet Matthew's current needs.

At that moment, he called for Renesmee and asked her to choose one of the three remaining Oak Guards.

Renee Smee didn't seem to understand what Matthew was saying.

Matthew had to let her walk around.

Renesme smirked and drooled, watching Matthew as he walked, and as he walked, he slammed into a tree.

She patted the tree annoyed.

There was also a look of helplessness on Matthew's face.

Because this is just a very ordinary oak tree, not an oak tree guard.

How could he use his valuable experience to strengthen ordinary oak trees?

"Choose another one, Renee Smee."

Matthew ordered.

Renesme walked around the oak tree before reluctantly leaving.

A moment later, she came to a guard oak tree and frantically ground her teeth with its bark.

Matthew's heart skipped a beat.

I was about to raise my hand to strengthen ten times.

Right now.

A voice full of reproach sounded:

"How can you allow the undead to desecrate the sacred oak guards?"

The elusive centaur suddenly appeared beside Renesme.

He pushed Renesme away forcefully, recklessly.

Renesme instinctively bared her fangs at him, and the centaur immediately raised the spear and warned:
"Stay away from my oak tree!"

Upon hearing this.

Matthew, who was about to explain just now, instantly darkened.

He stared at the centaur sharply:
"Have you forgotten, this is my oak forest."

Obest frowned:

"You know I don't mean that."

Matthew asked:
"Then what do you mean?"

"I'm doing things in my own forest, should I still be instructed by you?"

Obest said dryly:

"I don't think I did anything wrong."

"I've been with these oak trees every day, and I know them better than you. If I were you, I shouldn't be pointing fingers at real professionals."

His tone was full of superiority.

Matthew's frown was loosened instead.

The centaur gave him a bad first impression, but considering that the other party was indeed a professional counterpart, he was allowed to stay.

Unexpectedly, within a few days, there was a posture of overwhelming the host.

"Mr. Obest, you may leave my woods."

Matthew said politely.

Obest has not yet reacted, he is still rambling:

"If it wasn't for Princess Lulu's sake, it would be impossible for me to leave the sea of ​​trees and stay here. This forest has great potential, and they need me... Wait, what are you talking about?"

The centaur looked at Matthew in disbelief.

Matthew said calmly:

"You are fired, and I will give you 24 hours. After 24 hours, if you still appear in my oak forest, I will regard this as a provocation."

Obest asked in disbelief:

"You want to banish me?"

Matthew said bluntly:
"You have been evicted."

Obest smiled instead of anger:
"I just wanted to tell you that there is a huge hidden danger in this forest, but I didn't expect that you would take the initiative to expel me, fine, fine, fine, you are the owner of the forest, I will leave immediately. I can only say that Princess Lulu really If you miss it, you and she will both regret it!"

Finish this sentence.

He turned his head and ran towards the north of the woods arrogantly.

Make sure the centaur is gone.

Matthew came to the guard of the oak tree chosen by Renee Smee.

His mood was not affected in the slightest.

Raising your hand is ten consecutive strengthening!

……

When you chat with him about other math problems, he will also keep asking questions, hoping to get answers from you.

However, it is not an easy task for Dom to understand your thinking. "

……

Very general.

Matthew stroked his chin.

After this wave of strengthening, except that the level has been solidly improved, and the two purple keywords are quite effective, the rest are very ordinary.

As for the gray ones.

He didn't even bother to complain.

The intelligence of the Oak Guards is generally not very high, and falling in love with mathematics is really a kind of suffering.

As for singing in the middle of the night, this problem is not difficult to solve, just throw a silencing enchantment beside him.

"Are you sure it's him?"

Matthew looked at Renee Smee.

Miss Zombie looked at him innocently.

So Matthew prepared to continue strengthening.

But the next second.

……

"Reminder: The number of enhancements has reached the maximum value.

Remarks: Each Oak Guard can be strengthened up to ten times within a year. "

……

There are still restrictions!

Matthew wanted to complain even more.

But after thinking about it, when strengthening the undead before, it was clearly stated that it was infinite strengthening.

compared to the undead.

The characteristics of plants are more stable, and the existence of enhancement restrictions is barely justified.

It's just that in this way, it is tantamount to forcing Matthew to diversify his investment.

He thought about it, and planned to hand over the remaining ten times to another oak tree guard.

Who will give the extra two times in the end?
Matthew's eyes wandered aimlessly in the woods.

suddenly.

He noticed the oak that Renesme had hit first.

"Would you like to try strengthening the oak tree?"

It's redundant anyway.

There is no psychological burden for Matthew to use.

He shot at the oak tree.

……

"Hint: The enhancement is successful, and your oak tree has obtained the golden keyword "Descendants of the World Tree".

Descendants of the World Tree: Your oak tree gets the lord template, and gains the abilities of "giant tree species", "infinite growth", "hometown of elves" and "link to the sea of ​​trees", and is named "Bogard" by the sea of ​​trees! -

expected within the next 100 years.

A new batch of wood elves will be born on Borgard.
-
Link to the Sea of ​​Trees: Bogard has a huge life value and a huge influence, and its canopy covers every corner of the oak forest in an invisible way.

Burgard will bear half of the damage suffered by the oak trees. "

……

In an instant.

The oak tree began to rise violently.

in the dark.

It grows taller and taller and taller.

There seems to be no end!

Huge tree crowns hung down in all directions.

This scene came so suddenly.

Even Matthew was startled in place.

"Fortunately, it was at night. If this scene happened suddenly during the day, the residents would not be frightened."

"Fortunately no one saw it."

Matthew secretly thought.

Right now.

A gap suddenly opened under the moonlight.

A white-robed mage came out with a large magic carpet.

Eckmond was stunned when he saw the big tree.

His instinct was to turn around.

I guess I thought I was going wrong.

until the next second.

He noticed Matthew from the corner of his eye, and he walked over in surprise:

"It seems that I stumbled upon something extraordinary."

Ekmond looked at Matthew with some amusement.

behind him.

The dozens of mages sitting on the magic carpet raised their heads together, looking up at the still growing giant tree with different eyes.

Amazement was written all over many people's faces.
