Chapter 25 Have you reached the point where you are talking about marriage?
……

"No, no need."

After getting a negative answer from Ella.

Matthew had no choice but to continue to say regretfully:
"Maybe I made a mistake, but I really feel that this greenhouse is far from the seed base I imagined, especially in terms of space."

"And I said that it can be done in batches, and there is no need to rush."

Yet Ayla showed a stubbornness she had never seen before.

She said seriously: "No! Matthew, the soul of nature will do what it says, just wait, after tonight, all the seeds will germinate!"

As she spoke, she flapped her wings and flew to the first seed shed.

A faint natural breath came out, and Ella started to work vigorously.

"Is she that arrogant spirit of nature you told me about earlier? Doesn't look like a bad person."

Paige asked with interest.

Matthew nodded in agreement:
"Of course she is not a bad person. In fact, most of the souls of nature are very suitable to be friends. They are just blinded by stereotypes and discriminate against my profession. But it is not their fault. Necromancers are indeed easy to appear. Bad breed."

In fact, Matthew quite likes dealing with the soul of nature, and this liking can even be extended to most druids.

Their emotions are written on their faces, likes are likes, hates are hates, there are not so many smiles with hidden knives and honeyed belly swords.

"So after having this child laborer, does it mean that I won't have to be in charge of the greenhouse in the future?"

Paige asked expectantly.

Matthew smiled lightly:
"Ella is just here to help. She is new here, and there are still many details that are unclear. You need to teach her. For the time being, I still can't do without you here."

Peggy glanced at her mouth:

"Well, I knew the god damn necromancer wouldn't let my free labor go."

Matthew smiled and handed over an irregular crystal emitting white light.

"This month's salary."

Peggy's soul fire instantly turned into a smiling face:
……

"Oh, Matthew, you are the kindest necromancer I have ever met!
I bet other necromancers don't get paid on time like you!

When I was still in the Golden Pit, a friend was a contracted creature of a strange old man. It told me that the damn necromancer not only asked him to rush to the forefront when fighting, but also asked him to help him take a bath on weekdays. And during the period, there were many deviant behaviors!

It suspects that the necromancer is molesting it, but it has neither evidence nor the ability to resist because of the signed contract.

Every time I meet it, it asks me how to get rid of that necromancer.

Unfortunately it didn't work out in the end.

The last time I saw him was after a terrible fight.

At that point it lost almost all the bones in vital parts of its body.

I was very worried about its condition, but it told me with a smile that it was not without good news—at least it was riddled with wounds, so the old man wouldn't let him take a bath in this situation, right?

Later facts proved that it was right, but only partly right.

That goddamn necromancer really didn't molested it anymore.

Instead, it removed all its bones in front of it, and distributed them to other skeletons.

The extra bones were broken down into bone meal, and even the last soul fire was used by him to light the lamp.

Damn!

Ah, sorry, I have said too much, but I want to say one more thing--

Thank you, Matthew! "

……

Matthew listened quietly.

"I think what I do should be the bottom line of a person with a conscience, so you don't have to thank me extra, Peggy."

"But I'm curious, how did you know what happened to your friend?"

Peggy hesitated for a moment, her soul flickered a little:

"Uh, maybe I have a telepathy with it? Anyway, I saw those pictures when it was dying.

It's terrible, I thought that being an undead creature should no longer fear death, but it's not the case.

I am still terrified of losing my sense of self.

Every time I think back to the scene I saw at that time, I feel terrified..."

Speaking of it.

Peggy's soul fire suddenly flickered violently.

Her voice was trembling too.

Matthew's face changed, and he quickly put one hand on Peggy's back:
……

"Hey, Paige, stop recalling the bad stuff!

Do you remember what I told you when I took you out of the Pit of Gold?

We will do it!

I have established a relationship with the soul of nature now, and even the goddess of moonlight has blessed me.

I think I'm on the right track!

Next, it only takes time to accumulate to have a chance to solve the mystery that bothers you.

But before that, you have to be strong, you can't be trapped by yourself! "

……

Matthew tried to calm Peggy's turbulent emotions while talking.

He gently embraced Peggy's cold skeleton.

A surge of intense sadness rushed into Matthew's mind.

He gritted his teeth and supported Peggy with firm will.

This picture should be beautiful.

It's a pity that there is a difference in height between the two, so the style of painting is a bit wrong.

……

a long time.

Paige finally broke free from that violent, sad mood.

"Thank you, Matthew, for helping me again."

Peggy's soul fire gradually stabilized, and her tone returned to calm:
"The bad feeling just now hasn't happened for more than a year. I thought I had got rid of that nightmare, but it still didn't let me go."

Matthew is used to this kind of situation.

When he first signed Paige, he would have an attack almost every week or so.

Later, Matthew brought her to live in the main material world, and she gradually got better.

"What kind of picture did you just see?"

Matthew asked softly.

"It's almost the same as last time. On a boundless grassland, there are countless tauren corpses. The ground is black and the grass is dripping with blood."

Peggy narrated in a steady tone.

"Maybe that's the most impressive memory you had during your lifetime."

Matthew speculated.

"maybe."

Peggy recovered quickly, and she even took the initiative to joke about Matthew:
"You hugged me too tightly, you strangled me!"

Matthew let go of his hand subconsciously and quickly, before reacting immediately, he looked at Peggy angrily and funny.

"Oh, Matthew, you are so gentle."

Peggy smiled triumphantly:

"But to be honest, I'm really touched. If I hadn't died, I would have wanted to marry you!"

Matthew was about to answer.

Right now.

The two felt a horrified gaze watching them at the same time.

Matthew looked sideways.

"You, have you guys reached the point where you are talking about marriage?"

Ella said in disbelief.

……

……

Kuangse Worm Nest, the fourth floor.

After a not so intense battle, the skeleton soldiers were slowly cleaning the battlefield.

But Matthew looked seriously at the sluggish Ella next to him—this stubborn nature soul was forcibly taken away from his post by Matthew after ripening a quarter of the oak seeds.

If not, he was worried that the other party would die suddenly in his greenhouse tonight.

"feel better now?"

Matthew asked with concern.

"It's much better, don't underestimate the recovery ability of the soul of nature!"

Ella replied weakly.

But her mental state is much better than when she first entered the cave.

Moonglade is her home.

Here, her depleted energy and energy are quickly replenished.

"That's good." Matthew considered his words:

"Actually, the scene you saw before was a misunderstanding..."

Ella was shocked immediately.

"Matthew, you don't want to kill someone, do you?!"

She looked at each other nervously:

"The goddess will watch you!"

Matthew rubbed his temples, and said helplessly:
"I will never wait until now to silence you!"

Ella let out a long breath:

"That's fine, that's fine.

Don't take it too seriously, Matthew, I understand—no, I don't!

But I know that there are indeed many necromancers who develop feelings for their summons.

I have to say that, judging by tauren's aesthetic standards, Peggy is an out-and-out beauty, at least her bones are great! "

Speaking of it.

She paused for a long time before suppressing some emotions and saying:

"I will bless you."

Matthew slapped his forehead, well, he couldn't wash it off.

"Master...Master, there is a hard turf..."

Suddenly intermittent thoughts came from Ah Bing.

Matthew's heart skipped a beat.

He bypassed the pile of dead bodies of the Kuangse-infected on the left side of the road.

Came to the other side where Ah Bing was.

it's here.

Lying there was the corpse of a human infected person who had been disemboweled, and it seemed that A Bing had done the injury himself.

On the body was a hard-shell notebook, which probably fell out of the infected person's pocket.

There are also hundreds of gold coins scattered around the notebook, which means that the infected person was once very rich.

Matthew didn't come near.

In the hierarchical division of labor of the Kuangse Zerg, ordinary infected people are only stronger than larvae crawling out of the sac, but there are often more than a dozen larvae parasitized on an infected body.

After killing them, they must be disposed of properly so that there will be no future troubles.

"Ah Bing, bring the book here."

Matthew ordered.

A Bing did so without hesitation.

puff!
A larva suddenly drilled out of the eye socket of the infected person, and jumped straight to A Bing's thigh bone.

Whoosh!
The shadow of the sword flashed.

A Bing cut the larva into two pieces precisely in mid-air.

at the same time.

He also completed the action of squatting and picking up.

Matthew took the notebook, wiped the blood and pus on the cover with a rag, and then looked at it.

The size of the notebook is only slightly larger than Matthew's palm.

Its cover is a pattern of gold dust, somewhat resembling some kind of cuneiform script.

Matthew felt that this pattern looked familiar, but he couldn't recall it for a while.

He opens the cover.

However, the first sentence with blood stains made his body tremble——

……

"The Empire ordered us to study psychics on the Dawn, but the terrible bugs destroyed everything..."

……

It wasn't the content that moved Matthew.

It was the word 'Empire' that finally aroused associations in his mind.

He finally understood why the pattern on the cover looked familiar!

"Is this the symbol of the Antu Empire? I remember that the Antu Empire was the big villain in the game in the previous life - almost all the monsters in the instance are related to their laboratories scattered all over the universe!"

Matthew was emotionally charged.

His previous judgment was correct, he had indeed traveled to the game world, at least in the same multiverse!

Think about this.

He couldn't wait to look down!
