The necromancer just wants to plant trees.

Chapter 545: Purgatory Snake Demon
……

As soon as Rega's news came out, the entire chat room exploded.

Sif was clearly the most excited.

She kept asking whether Rhaegar had managed to escape from Gracia's clutches.

Others are concerned about much the same thing.

However, what everyone found difficult to accept was.

Rega did not respond to their questions, and when they tried to use the spell badge to establish a one-on-one private chat with Rega, the signal they sent out was like a drop in the ocean.

at this time.

Matthew, who was extremely nervous, noticed that Rega's avatar in the chat room had dimmed.

However, the records left behind and the traces of the activated mental imprint in the summoning stone were enough to prove that at that moment, Reagar did enter the chat room of the Spell Guild in some way, but because the time was too short, he failed to leave more useful information.

Although Matthew wanted to find out what happened immediately.

But for now.

He had to deal with a lot of private chats from others, especially Sif.

After some effort.

Matthew roughly explained to everyone that he had not yet rescued Rhaegar, and Rhaegar's response just now might have been an accident.

But even so.

The atmosphere in the chat room was still much more lively than before.

Everyone was sending messages here and there, chatting about various topics, and seemed to be waiting for Rega's sudden appearance in tacit understanding.

Most people in the Magic Guild knew about Rea's situation and understood the general background of Matthew's trip.

Therefore, most of them also expressed their willingness to help Matthew at any time in private messages.

This made Matthew feel very emotional.

It seems that no matter where he goes, Rega is always so popular.

soon.

Matthew then turned his attention to figuring out this anomaly.

He chose to communicate with Fei Liwen, the main driving force behind the guild's spell system upgrade, in the private chat channel.

After Matthew stated all the information he currently knew.

Fei Liwen responded quickly:
"I suspect that the soul copper coin where Rega was located and the communication network of the magic guild produced some special resonance, so that he was able to briefly connect to the communication network itself through his own spirituality without the magic badge. But precisely because of the instability of his own spirituality, he quickly lost contact..."

"Well, Bobo and I upgraded the communication network on a small scale before, expanding the communication distance of the spell badge from the plane level to most areas of the multiverse."

"This is not only an enhancement of the magic network, but also a significant improvement of the communication network. This may be the basis for Rega to enter the chat room..."

"In fact, I made a certain degree of reservation when maintaining the communication network. I will go to the Moonlit Glades now to improve the strength of the overall communication network and see if I can get Rega online again!"

Fei Liwen's efficiency in action is still extremely high.

five minutes later.

She sent another message:

"I have adjusted the communication network signal to the highest level. Is there any sign of Lei Jia coming online?"

Matthew looked closely at the situation of the communication network and finally gave a negative answer.

Fei Liwen also expressed regret about this.

And after a brief discussion.

She also suggested two possible ways for Matthew to contact Rhaegar:

"The first option is to establish a branch of the Spell Guild in the plane where Rega is. We need to build a gathering stone and magic pool similar to those in the Moonlit Glades. Well, the requirements for the branch are relatively low. In theory, we can complete it in half a day at most."

"After the branch is established, the energy level of the communication network will have a qualitative leap. At that time, we can not only passively wait for Rega to come online, but also actively search for nearby spiritual units to invite them for communication."

"As long as you are willing to spend money, this is not some rare technology or magic. It's just that this kind of "high spiritual communication network" is prone to a lot of noise. Especially once you set up a branch near a tomb or a battlefield, you will inevitably encounter a large number of ghosts intruding..."

Matthew shook his head silently after reading it.

Not to mention that tearing the plane does not meet the requirements of establishing a guild branch. Even if it is possible, there is a war outside!

It is also unknown how long Gracia will stay here.

Half a day is already beyond the limit.

"The second method has a higher success rate, but the risk of exposure is also high."

"I can build a temporary, movable directional signal tower. You or someone else will be required to hold it, and then move slowly in an area close to Rega."

"The maximum distance is probably within three hundred or five hundred meters. Theoretically, the closer the better. Considering that there is a war going on in your area, the signal may be more stable within three hundred meters."

"As for raw materials, I think I need a Honeycomb Anemone and a Sivarc Crucible to realize the spiritual pulse technology. These two things are expensive. If I need them temporarily, I can only buy them at the Alliance Mall or the Crucible House..."

Matthew chose the second one without hesitation:

"Just put it on my account."

Fei Liwen was also very straightforward:
"Give me fifteen minutes."

Matthew felt a little relieved and expressed his gratitude to Fei Liwen.

Compared to the genius wizard Hibbert.

The improvement of the Magic Guild with the addition of Fei Liwen is actually more obvious.

As an academic mage with a very solid theoretical foundation.

She has strong hands-on skills.

He also showed an interest in the spell guild system that far exceeded that of ordinary people.

If Matthew were to rely solely on himself for maintenance and upgrades.

I don’t know how long it will take to achieve the current effect.

after all.

Necromancers have never been known for these technical spells.

While waiting.

Matthew still used the member summoning technique to pull Roland to his side.

When the summon takes effect.

The entire shadow node trembled slightly.

This means that the node has reached its upper limit on the number of organisms it can accommodate.

"So this is how the bard gathers intelligence?"

Matthew asked with some amusement:

"Is the shadow-retaining technique that fun?"

Lorraine shrugged:

"Don't be so serious, Matthew. I know you're under a lot of pressure and your nerves are tense, so I thought of using this method to help you relax."

"Besides, this is actually a way for me to test myself."

Matthew raised his eyebrows:
"Oh?"

Loren explained:
"I do have some intelligence I want to share with you, but I can't confirm your current condition."

"If I send you a private message directly, it might cause some negative effects."

"But if I posted it publicly in the chat room and it caught your attention, it means that you are in the same relaxed state now, and we can naturally communicate better, right?" Matthew touched his chin, not moved at all.

But he doesn't really care about that:
"I actually just wanted to check on your status, whether you are safe or not."

Luo Lan immediately spread his hands:

"I am well, you see, and I am in good shape."

"As for that profiteer, haha, he disappeared right after we both joined the devil's army."

"I've long suspected that he has bad intentions, Matthew, you have to keep an eye on him."

Matthew nodded slightly.

But he was not too worried. Through the Kunlan Blood Book, he could accurately sense the location of Charles.

That's the direction close to Shadow Castle.

Although he didn't know what this clone of Barto was trying to do, Matthew was ready to respond at any time.

"Tell me what information you found."

he asks.

Luo Lan brought a chair for himself, sat down leisurely, and then began to speak:

"You may have noticed that the Dark Lord Beckman has joined forces with Galen, Gasliwen, and the Tongluo gods behind the Evil Queen Babasha."

"And their purpose is actually to replicate the bloody meteor incident!"

Matthew's eyelids twitched.

He actually had similar speculations in his heart, but after it was confirmed he still found it a little unbelievable.

"With the plane being torn apart, it would be hard to create a plane channel on the moon like the bloody meteor did, right?"

Matthew pondered.

This is not a question of motivation, but a question of scale and energy level.

The torn plane is too small, and it was originally created temporarily. Its core is a shadow that is known for its fragility. Even if this thing hits the land of the material world head-on, it may not cause much damage.

It's not even as strong as a meteor shower.

And want to open a cross-world channel between the worlds of Aindo and Tongluo.

The energy required is far beyond what can be achieved by impacts at this level.

That's why Matthew felt confused.

Luo Lan shook his head and said:

"Replicating the effects of the Blood Meteor incident does not necessarily mean copying the entire content."

"According to the information I have obtained, tearing the plane is actually just a trigger. Their goal is to establish a super-giant coordinate and traction system here, and then attract the real behemoth of the star realm. The final destructive energy level created may be more than three times that of the blood meteor impact event!"

"For this reason, they abandoned their plans in other places, such as Escana and Snake City."

"I didn't get any more specific information. I only know that Beckmann was very confident about this. He originally wanted to use the news of his self-burial to conceal the truth and then slowly delay time with the Phantom Baron."

"But Gracia and Grand Duke Iron still received the news in time. They raised the intensity of the war to another level. The Blood River Will was most likely involved. After all, this time the Tongluo gods chose the vicinity of Purgatory as the springboard to the material world. This is undoubtedly the biggest threat to the Blood River Will."

Matthew nodded.

Loran continued:

"As for the King of Air Element, it was purely an accident."

"With the increasingly violent air elemental tribe and a king who has always been warlike, I would not be surprised if these elemental creatures choose to march to any plane."

"But the cooperation between the air element and the devil is not as solid as it seems. At least in my opinion, this war is a bit inexplicable to the air element—"

"What I mean is that they originally just wanted to carry out a wanton looting of Beckman's tomb, but now they see that the intensity of the battle has been infinitely increased, which is actually inconsistent with their cognition."

"The reason they haven't retreated yet is probably just because of inertia and because Beckmann hasn't shown a stronger force yet."

"Or, if Beckmann can offer a bargaining chip that will tempt the air elements, it won't be difficult for these elemental creatures to turn against us immediately or even withdraw their troops."

"In short, the air element is the second largest random factor in this suddenly escalated war."

Matthew asked:

"What about the biggest one?"

Luo Lan smiled:
"The biggest random factor is of course us."

"Don't underestimate yourself. You are already a big shot, Mr. Destroyer."

"I think no matter which side of the camp, no one wants to see a sky of death suddenly appear above the heads of their soldiers..."

Matthew shrugged:

"Don't say anything."

"This place is quite suitable for launching the Undead Scourge."

Then he changed the subject and concluded seriously:
"So the current situation is that if Beckman wants to implement his plan, he must guard the gate of Shadow Castle. Once Purgatory breaks through the gate, the plan of the Tongluo gods will fail."

"For Gracia, the failure of Beckman's plan itself represents the recognition and grace of the Blood River Will. This may be the most important opportunity for her to be promoted to the Lord of the Nine Hells. It will also provide her with more bargaining chips in the battle of Stuluk two months later."

"The air element and us, and at most a few other bystanders will become random factors."

"Judging from the current combat power, if there is no external force involved, Beckman's defeat will be a quick matter."

"I just observed that the shadow demons have already started to act collectively. They will destroy the shadow nodes one by one. After that, the shadow army will lose the cover of space. Even if it does not collapse immediately, it will be difficult to reach the front of the demons."

"But Beckmann must have another trump card, we just don't know it yet..."

Matthew hadn't finished speaking yet.

A lot of news suddenly came from the other side of the Kunlan Blood Covenant.

Matthew's eyes froze for a moment, but after he quickly digested it, his expression became lively again.

He couldn't help but murmured:
"I see."

"It turns out that one of Beckmann's backup plans is a large group of Purgatory Snake Demons that are about to jump over from the Far East..."

"They were a very powerful race of demons that were active in Baator Purgatory during the Baator era. After Baator's death, they were exiled by Gracia."

"With hatred towards Gracia, it is understandable that these snake demons come to join the battle, but how much of a role can they play?"

Luo Lan shook his head to indicate that he was not sure.

Carmela, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke:

"Snake demons are not easy to deal with."

"As far as I know, the snake demons in the Far East are not only immune to curses, but they also have a group curse effect."

"Wherever the snake demons pass through, all living creatures are almost extinct, because the curse they carry indiscriminately attacks all life except the snake demons."

Matthew nodded:

"Besides the snake demon, Beckman should have other preparations as well."

"It would be nice if we could figure out what they are, one by one."

"But our first target is still Gracia..."

Speaking of it.

Matthew decided to summon three wanderers to the torn plane and take action!
"It's time to test Gracia and her guards..."
