The necromancer just wants to plant trees.

Chapter 557: Cicada of Time
……

Soul Copper Coin!

That moment.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Savrola, even she herself was stunned for a moment.

She probably didn't expect it.

Richard and Sener had worked hard for a long time to steal the props but failed, but he succeeded in just one try!
Matthew breathed a sigh of relief, and then a relieved smile appeared on his face:

"Good job!"

The reason why Matthew arranged for Savrola to seize this crucial opportunity was actually planned in advance.

Unlike the sophisticated Richard and Sener.

Although Safrola is gifted and has successfully become a legend, she is still young after all, and her actual level of stealing is still far behind the two old hands.

at this point.

The three of them had demonstrated this beforehand, and it was a fact acknowledged by the orc girl herself.

This is also the reason why she was the last one to take action.

But Savrola has an extremely extraordinary hidden talent, and it is precisely because of this talent that Carmela insisted that Matthew take her with him on this trip.

This talent comes from Safro's fairy father.

……

"Lucky (racial talent/exclusive to rogues): You will gain a very high luck bonus in areas related to your race and profession.

1. When sneaking, you will hardly be noticed by others because of your big movements or unusual noises;
2. In a non-particularly bright environment, most of the enemy's attacks will pass you by;

3. When encountering magic attacks or traps, you can directly exempt from any unnecessary and ambiguous judgments.

4. When interacting with the environment, it is almost impossible for you to lose balance or even get injured due to obstacles.

5. When using the art of stealing, you are more likely to steal what you want…"

……

This extraordinary talent is one of the cornerstones that enabled Safrola to advance to a legendary wanderer at a young age.

For wanderers.

Luck is the most important attribute after agility and perception.

And in the application of legendary theft techniques.

Matthew believes that luck should be used at the most critical moment.

For example, now!
In a sense, Saffron's success is not simply the result of "luck".

Richard filtered a lot of complicated goals for her;
Sener also eliminated the wrong options for her;

Coupled with her own strength and luck, this soul copper coin was able to successfully appear in her hands!

When it is.

The Queen of Lust stared at Saffrona and the copper coin in her hand.

Her body leaned forward slightly, then suddenly recovered.

She sneered:

"You stole the wrong thing!"

"Despicable thief!"

Matthew leaned over to sense it and found that the soul coin contained the soul of a demon.

Not Rega's.

He looked at Saffrona.

The orc girl said happily:

"It's not a big problem."

"Once you have the first one, the others are easy!"

The words fell.

She suddenly took out a deep blue totem from her bag and inserted it into the air.

All of a sudden.

The totem carved with orc language and special runes is a blue light masterpiece.

The blue light turned into a blue stream, dripping out of the totem, and then surrounded Savrola, forming a void river.

next moment.

The orc girl hung the copper coin in her hand on the totem and muttered something.

The blue light above the totem became even brighter!
The Demon Queen instinctively felt that something was wrong.

"stop!"

However, a red figure came over from the side——

But Carmela was holding the iconic giant flail, with golden and white light bursting out of her body from time to time, and she rushed towards the Queen of Lust in a fierce manner!

"Armament of the God of the First Moon" & "Legendary Divine Art: Perfect Protection"!
The powerful pressure made the Lust Demon Queen retreat step by step, and she had no power to fight back in the short term!
It was precisely taking advantage of this opportunity.

Safrola was able to finish chanting the spell she had prepared.

A few seconds later.

Starting from the totem, soul coins appeared one after another on the river surrounding Safrola!

Soon.

A total of one hundred and seven soul copper coins escaped from the control of the Demon Queen and appeared in Safrala's hands.

"found it!"

Savrola handed one of the coins to Matthew.

After pinching the coin.

Matthew's heart finally relaxed!
……

"Hint: Your partner Safrola used the orc shaman's secret technique "Water Tracking"!
Safrola combined the legendary theft technique with the water tracking technique and successfully obtained the remaining 106 soul coins!
You got the Soul Copper Coin (Rega)!

Should we release him?"

……

Without saying a word, Matthew threw the copper coin into Paradise Lost first, and then released Rhaegar's soul!

"Matthew!"

Rhaegar was thrilled.

He was about to say something, but Matthew urgently closed the entrance to Paradise Lost!

"Wait inside first!"

Matthew said hastily, then turned around to deal with the Lord of Darkness who seemed to be trying to attack from the side.

Beckman seemed to have not expected Matthew to react so quickly.

There was a rare hint of embarrassment on his face.

But soon his complexion returned to normal:

"Don't be nervous, I'm here to talk to you."

Matthew smiled slightly:
"Okay."

next second.

A huge negative energy tentacle rose from behind Beckman and then slapped him mercilessly!
Whoosh!
Beckman turned into a black shadow and avoided the touch of death.

Yet at the same time.

A gray-black translucent chain has already connected his body to Matthew——

"The Curse of Death"!
Beckman's face changed.

that moment.

He could sense that layer after layer of domains were erupting from Matthew's body——

Negative energy, grave, eclipse, death, balance, minotaur, nature...

"How is it possible that this number of fields is not even legendary?"

Beckmann was horrified.

He immediately realized that the other party's field of vision was fully open, and it was clear that he was ready to fight him to the death.

And he certainly didn't want to risk his life with Matthew at this critical juncture.

So without saying a word, he turned his body into shadow and planned to leave the battlefield.

When retreating.

He also did not forget to take away Hibbert who was trapped in the shadow realm.

But at this time.

He suddenly discovered that the figure trapped by the endless shadow was gradually becoming invisible.

Followed by.

A shocking scene happened——

Hibbert and the shadow area around him seemed to be trapped in a vicious circle of time reversal, and all his movements reversed time and flashed quickly in front of Beckman.

He wanted to intervene and stop this.

However, they were interfered by a powerful force and could not get close at all.

And when everything is over.

He found that his shadow field was just being laid out, and Hibbert, who was supposed to be restrained in the center of the field, had turned into a bird that was constantly flapping its wings...

蝉！
Beckmann's pupils contracted violently:

"Cicada of Time?"

"You are from Loa..."

puff!
The Cicada of Time turned into pure white powder and disappeared into the air.

And the other side.

Hibbert reappeared beside Matthew:

"How about it?"

"My combat skills are okay, right?"

Matthew gave him a thumbs up:

"Very strong."

But I silently complained in my heart, you don’t have any practical skills at all, it’s all talent when it comes to fighting!

Hibbert chuckled.

Take this opportunity.

Matthew launched a series of attacks on Beckmann, and even summoned the soldiers to participate in the attack on Beckmann.

If only there was Matthew's necromancy.

Beckmann still seemed quite calm, but the arrival of the Dual-Sword Sage and the silent approach of the three Wanderers put Beckmann under great pressure.

Soon, he used the characteristics of the shadow realm to distance himself from Matthew.

use this opportunity.

Matthew took the time to look at Carmela——

Unsurprisingly.

This guy was waving his signature flail and chasing Gracia!
It can be seen that even if the divine arts are put aside, relying on physical warfare, this legendary priest is still stronger than the average devil lord!
"The purpose of this trip has been achieved, and I stole a lot of things, but it's a pity that I didn't steal the Eye of Baator."

"But it's time to retreat!"

Matthew made up his mind.

next moment.

He, Hibbert and Filiwen opened fire at full power, creating a large number of area spells at once.

Nearby enemies can only dodge quickly.

These spells also block the perception of outsiders to a certain extent.

Wait until someone reacts.

Matthew also finished chanting the "Members Gathering Technique".

Whoosh!
Everyone present gathered around Matthew.

Not a trace of hesitation.

Everyone temporarily hid in Paradise Lost.

Followed by.

Matthew's figure disappeared in front of everyone!
Matthew's decisive retreat also exceeded the expectations of Beckman and Gracia.

At first they even thought that this was Matthew's way of retreating to advance.

Until a few seconds later.

Only then did they realize that Matthew might have really escaped!
"We can't let him escape!"

Gracia chased after him angrily.

Beckman also followed the clues.

The two found a remnant of a portal and a crack pointing to the surface of the torn plane astral realm where Matthew left!

The two looked at each other and each found a direction to chase.

Unexpectedly, it didn't take long.

The two of them escaped from the portal/crack at the same time, covered in dust and dirt!

"It's actually a trap!"

"And the bomb?"

The two looked at each other, and after confirming that the other had encountered a similar thing, their mood suddenly improved a lot.

"and many more."

"If both escape routes were traps, then where did he escape to?"

Beckmann was furious.

His eyes swept across the chaotic battlefield.

suddenly.

He discovered that there seemed to be something unusual in a nearby shadow node!

He cut in quickly and came out two seconds later:

"He escaped from here."

"If he escaped through the shadow plane, he must have left a trail. It's not difficult to find him. We just need to spend some time to find him..."

"And the Shadow Plane is my home turf!"

Beckman was a little excited.

Just very quickly.

He realized that things were not as simple as he thought.

On the chaotic battlefield.

After Matthew and others left, the Infernal Snake Demons riding on ferocious rhinos launched another attack on Gracia's army!

The snake demon came for revenge.

This action is normal under normal circumstances, but at this critical juncture, it is like adding fuel to the fire.

really.

When Beckman's attention shifted back to Gracia, the latter had already put on the armor of the Fallen Valkyrie angrily!

"and many more."

"That necromancer and his gang may not have gone far yet!"

Beckmann shouted:

"What if he attacks again?"

Gracia was so angry after being touched thoroughly that she looked like she wanted to eat someone:
"Is this why your men attacked my soldiers?"

"Unless you stop summoning the Tongluo gods immediately, otherwise..."

"Forget it. Now, even if you stop, you must die!"

The words have not yet fallen.

Gracia, who had fully unleashed the potential of the armor, rushed towards the Lord of Darkness with a tremendous roar.

The latter's face darkened.

He had to quickly escape into the shadows, and then rely on the power of the domain to fight the enemy.

quickly.

The fighting on the battlefield broke out again.

The intensity of the war is even higher than before!
For a while.

There was blood and rain on the plain.

Even the earth seemed to begin to tremble slightly!
……

Outside the shadow node.

Between the edge of the tearing plane and the astral void.

A celestial deer is running fast.

After realizing that he had escaped from the pursuers.

Matthew found a relatively safe place and his consciousness sank into Paradise Lost.

Paradise Lost at this time can be said to be quite lively.

A group of people surrounded Rhaegar's soul and asked about his well-being, which made Rhaegar feel a little flattered.

"So, I am in a spirit state now?"

"You won't turn me into a skeleton soldier?"

As soon as I saw Matthew.

Rhaegar seemed a little excited, but his words turned into a teasing one as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Aren't zombies okay?"

Matthew walked over with a smile.

Rhaegar put on a thoughtful look:
"I heard that liches are very powerful."

Matthew reminded:
"Lich can't use sword oil."

Rhaegar immediately shook his head and asked seriously:

"Strictly speaking, the undead can't use sword oil, right?"

"Um, so, can I still move like a living person?"

Say the last sentence.

His tone was somewhat uneasy.

Matthew went over and patted him on the shoulder, and said in a relaxed tone:

"Don't worry, we have preserved your body very well."

"After resurrection, you may feel a little uncomfortable in the short term, but as long as you exercise and continue treatment, it shouldn't be a big problem."

Rhaegar curled his lips:

"Well, it's a happy thing that I still have the body."

The two chatted for a few more words.

Loran asked:

"What to say next?"

"Should we stop here, or...hmm?"

Matthew smiled and said:

"If I say stop, will you believe me?"

Luo Lan shook his head:

"Do not believe."

Matthew asked:
"why?"

Loran said:
"There's something wrong with the way you look at that armor and that otherworldly sword."

"My intuition tells me that you are not someone who is easily satisfied."

Matthew shrugged:

"I am very interested in those two things, but I can't risk going back to ask them for them."

This answer was obviously beyond everyone's expectations.

"So, we are going back home now?"

"My lady has just finished warming up the engine!"

Bobo seemed a little unsatisfied.

Matthew blinked:

"Who said we were going home?"

"I just don't want to go back to the front line."

"By the way, there is a shadow core in the torn plane. Beckman seems to have performed some unspeakable rituals in it. I plan to go over and take a look."

"Anyone interested in coming along?"

……

　happy National Day!
　　Rest tomorrow!
