The necromancer just wants to plant trees

…

After sending away the assessment duo, Matthew continued to plant trees.

Before I knew it, another three days had passed.

After the new week ended, Matthew's number of enhancements had accumulated to a respectable 13 times.

evening.

He summoned Renesmee and fired 13 rounds at her body.

After a wonderful strengthening light flashed.

Miss Zombie's level was raised from LV9 to LV12 in one go. She was already at the top of the third level, enough to be on an equal footing with Matthew.

In terms of keywords, the luck enhanced this time is quite satisfactory, with a total of two purple, three blue, three white and two gray.

Look at these keywords in different colors.

Matthew felt that he had accumulated some balancing elements.

This time, he still chose to look at purple and gray first.

…

"Concentration Pact (Purple): Renesmee will gain an additional concentration bonus (currently +1) when targeting enemies.

Specifically, she shares this focus bonus with the nearest companion. "

"Clingy Spirit (Gray): Renesmee is insecure and longs for companionship. She needs to see her master (you) for at least two hours a day.

Once she is unable to satisfy herself, a layer of "confusion" will appear in her soul fire.

When the number of confusion levels exceeds a certain limit, her loyalty to you may decrease. "

…

Focus contract is a good thing.

The most important attribute of a mage is concentration, which has a crucial impact on spellcasting.

In the previous battles, Matthew would rather use the wilderness form to kill enemies instead of using spells because the wilderness form requires very little concentration.

Many times, he is distracted and calculating other things, and the spells with a slightly higher level have to brew emotions.

This is the drawback of insufficient focus.

He actually doesn't have many advantages in this area and can only accumulate them slowly.

With just this keyword, Matthew decided to keep Renesmee by his side for a long time in the future. Aside from the fact that she was also a marksman herself, it wouldn't hurt to use her as a focus charging station!

As for the "clingy spirit".

Matthew thought it was okay.

At least there is no need for a salary increase.

It is natural for the undead to follow the Necromancer every day.

What's more, Matthew is now at level three.

Among the spells he needs to learn, mirroring is also a very important spell.

If you want to travel far in the future and you can't take the zombie lady with you.

Just create a mirror image for her to play with at home.

Compared to real living people.

The undead are still too easy to fool.

Between thoughts.

Matthew looked at the second group of purple and gray.

…

"Spell Enlightenment (Purple): Renesmee awakened some memories of her past life. She gained a small amount of memory of Storm Archer-related spells. In future battles, she may gradually recall more of her own spells.

In particular, Renesmee may awaken more past life spells if she can fight an enemy on a stormy ship.

Currently recalled spells: turning water into wine, magic trap"

"Bartender (grey): Renesmee loves to find people to arm-wrestle, and is willing to make a bet with the other party. If she loses, she will let the other party slap three times; if she wins, she will slap the other party three times. She I enjoyed it endlessly during my lifetime, and I am still unwilling to give up this hobby after my death.”

…

"good."

Matthew let out a long sigh of relief.

The stone fell to the ground.

No keywords that caused his myocardial infarction appeared.

He likes to find people to arm-wrestle, slap, etc., which seems too lighthearted to Matthew.

She has so many zombies and skeletons, she can play with them as she pleases.

She couldn't just slap all the undead, right?

As for "spell enlightenment".

It is also a keyword with great potential.

It does not represent an ability, but the awakening of a type of ability.

"It seems that Storm Shooter is not a pure long-range physical profession. She also needs to master some spells to assist shooting."

Matthew realized that Storm Archer might be an advanced profession for the Ranger.

Although the rangers have their own proficiency, they can also learn some spells.

Renesmee currently seems to be an unconventional ranger heading towards the sea.

It’s time for blue sky and white clouds.

Matthew decided to start with the bitter ones and then the sweet ones, looking at the white ones first.

…

"Seagull Trap (White): Renesmee experienced the Great Famine during her sea adventures, so she is very good at making special traps that can be used to hunt seagulls."

"Canning (white): Renesmee experienced a severe septicemia epidemic during a sea adventure, so she learned the making and preservation skills of canned tangerines from an old sailor. This sweet and delicious food can Help her and her crew resist the grim reaper."

"Compass usage skills (white): As a former pirate ship captain, Renesmee naturally knows how to use a compass. She can easily tell the direction of the sea on a starry night."

…

"The essence of enhancement is indeed to tap into the abilities of previous lives."

Matthew was a little emotional.

Unexpectedly, Miss Zombie was once a majestic pirate ship captain.

Combined with the characteristics of loving arm wrestling and slapping.

Maybe he had a pretty bad personality when he was alive.

This completely subverted her quiet and dazed image when they first met Matthew.

The above three white keywords are all unpretentious.

They can definitely come in handy on certain occasions.

…

"Continuous Back Jump (Blue): When Renesmee is approached, she will use continuous back jump to quickly distance herself from the enemy, and use bows and arrows to repel the enemy as much as possible."

"Fake Surrender (Blue): If the enemy is close and unable to get away in a short period of time, Renesmee will choose to pretend to surrender, and then take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness, either run away, or cooperate with "continuous back jump" to open up her position and counterattack the enemy. people."

"Medium intelligence (blue): Renesmee has the mind of an eight or nine-year-old human child.

She can understand almost everything you say, but due to the physical structure of the undead, she can often only speak a few simple words.

In particular, Renesmee was eager to learn languages.

At the same time, she also longs to communicate with her master (伱) or other people. "

…

Fake surrender and continuous jumps?

You can form a cunning and cunning duo with A Bing to make your overseas debut.

Matthew groaned inwardly.

But "Medium Enlightenment" is still good.

Ah Bing only had a "Basic Intelligence" before, but after strengthening it once, his intelligence was almost the same as that of Renesmee.

"Ah, ah, ah..."

Renesmee looked at Matthew with a silly smile.

Matthew wiped away her drool skillfully, and her deep desire came from the undead contract.

Matthew knew that she wanted to speak, but it was not that simple for zombies to speak human common language.

So he tried to communicate with Renesmee:

"Don't be impatient yet. Say it one word at a time. For example, me?"

He pointed at himself:

"I am your 'master'. "

"Yes, Master."

"Call Master."

Renesmee opened her mouth wide:

"Ah, ah, ah..."

Matthew tried for a few minutes, but Miss Zombie still could only ahhhhhhhh, which made him gradually lose interest in teaching.

Night gradually fell.

An owl fluttered its wings and flew over under the moonlight:

"Matthew, I kept my promise and will give birth to you!"

Matthew gave Ella a warm welcome.

Miss Owl stopped on his shoulder and looked curiously at Renesmee who said "Ahhhhhhhhh".

"Matthew, what are you doing?"

Ella asked.

"I'm teaching her to speak the Human Common."

Matthew explained.

He looked back at Renesmee and tried again:

"Call me Master."

Renesmee said "Ahhhhh" a few times, then suddenly her throat rolled up and she screamed:

"Mother!"

Ella suddenly showed a shocked expression.

Matthew was also surprised.

He was about to explain to Ella that he didn't teach him this word.

Who knew that Ella would actually say to Renesmee in a serious manner:

"Then what did you call me?"

Renesmee looked at her quizzically.

Ella looked at Miss Zombie expectantly:

"What do you call someone who is with your mother?"

Renesmee drooled and suddenly muttered:

"uncle."

Ella's mind was suddenly filled with questions.

…

At night, Matthew and Ella worked in the greenhouse all night, and eventually Ella was exhausted. Oak seeds sprouted vigorously, and they would grow into saplings suitable for planting in a short period of time.

With Ella's help, Matthew's imminent sapling shortage was finally solved.

As for oak seeds, through the official channels of Rolling Stone Town, you can still receive some scattered ones. Although the quality is very average, they can still be used.

Under the influence of the area of ​​temperance, Matthew's mentality also became more peaceful.

He is no longer eager to pursue temporary promotion.

Instead, he chose to devote more energy to the basics and improve himself in a down-to-earth manner while ensuring a certain amount of tree planting every day.

Early next morning.

Matthew went to the Crucible House again, and submitted the two drafted reports to the Alliance through Talling 177 channels.

According to 177.

He is a B1-level boss in the alliance and has a special fast channel that can make Matthew's ceremony application approved faster.

But in fact.

Matthew had no intention of waiting for permission from the alliance before performing the scorched earth death ritual.

His current identity is very ambiguous. He has joined the alliance with one foot, but has not fully joined. This allows him to have the greatest flexibility in interpretation.

As long as Rhaegar agrees.

He doesn't care when the alliance will reply!

Since the oak forest was temporarily stable, and Matthew heard the news that Zeller was coming back from the South Trading Post today, he read in the crucible room for a while, and then went straight to work at the Lord's Mansion.

But on the way to work.

He met the huge albatross again - Sweet Girl.

Sweet Girl shook her body awkwardly and let go of the letter in her mouth.

Matthew found a place to stand on the roadside, opened the letter and read it.

Lorraine's letter is also very long.

He first explained his current whereabouts——

After taking the whaling ship out to sea, Luolan quickly traveled north by the ocean currents, and soon arrived at Deep Blue Harbor.

Deep Blue Harbor is a famous city on the east coast, known for its romance and freedom.

In the first half of the letter, Lorraine mainly mentioned some miscellaneous events around Deep Blue Port.

For example, the Lion City in the north of Deep Blue Harbor has been intensifying its efforts recently and has successively annexed seven or eight nearby territories through marriage, war, and conspiracy.

Deep Blue Harbor seems to have felt the chill coming from the north.

The lord of the city and his seven daughters were trying to think of a solution;

On the sea, the battle between the Eastern Guardian and the evil dragon in the sea triggered a large-scale tsunami, and countless mysterious islands appeared and disappeared.

The aftermath of this battle even affected the heavens.

Some people claim to have seen the Eastern Fairyland on the waters of the Endless Ocean.

Some people say that it is the floating city of ancient Naga.

Some even believe that it is part of the ruins on Yunshang, where several gods from the Age of Enlightenment also fell;

The Astrologers Society on the East Coast has publicly announced that changes in celestial phenomena will cause an intensification of dragon activity. Currently, several dragons are indeed active on the continent of Irondor.

The cities on the east coast have always been known for their prosperity, and the owners of many city-states have begun to make plans to deal with dragon disasters.

All these and all the information that the bard could get his hands on, he didn't leave any information in the letter.

This surprised Matthew.

The information in his letter is probably more complete than Rhaegar's Alliance Weekly!

Only in the second half.

When it comes to Lorraine's personal life.

The style of painting suddenly changed.

This is how Luolan described his experience in Deep Blue Harbor——

…

"...When I was young, I had an incomprehensible connection with this city. Every corner here allows me to see those pairs of figures from back then——

That was me and them when we were young.

Yesterday, when I was passing by the fallen leaf corridor, I saw a pair of young men and women laughing and playing on the lawn. Their shadows were continuously stretched on the lawn. In a trance, I seemed to be back to that ignorant and high-spirited person. era.

I seemed to see their shadows chasing and playing with me on the lawn.

But when I subconsciously walked over and stretched out my hand to touch the shadows, they laughed and pushed me away, saying that I was old and could no longer play with them.

I could only watch as they disappeared in front of me.

Of course I knew it was just my imagination.

I also know very well that with my current charm, it is equally easy to find a young girl to fall in love with.

But I seemed to have suddenly lost the motivation to do so.

I suddenly didn't know why I wanted to return to this city.

When I was at sea, I was so eager to set foot on the land of Deep Blue Harbor.

But now, it's a completely different state of mind.

How to describe this feeling.

This is like a delicacy that you remember so much. It originally only existed in your flawless memory, but when you traveled thousands of mountains and rivers and overcame all difficulties to come to it.

You'll find that it doesn't seem to taste that good.

Deep Blue Harbor is still the Deep Blue Harbor.

There are young and pretty girls everywhere.

But it seems that Deep Blue Harbor is no longer the Deep Blue Harbor it used to be.

Maybe it's because the girls who were willing to accompany me when I was young are no longer around.

This feeling troubled me so much that I had to write to you to express it.

If you understand this feeling, please be sure to write me back and let me know as soon as possible.

At present, I have found a serious job in Shenlan Port and will not leave in the short term. If you consider visiting Shenlan Port, I welcome you at any time!

Thanks!

——Yours, Lorraine"

…

After Matthew read it, he quickly came to his office.

He wrote:

…

"I'm grateful for the information about Deep Blue Harbor.

I'm sorry I can't relate to you.

If I had to comment on the gentle and gentle emotions in the second half of your letter.

I can only give a one-word reply -

Pretentious.

——The outspoken Matthew”

…

Of course Matthew couldn't relate to Lorraine.

Although he is also very popular with the opposite sex, he is more of an abnormal human being.

And he doesn't plan to waste his energy on love in the near future.

After finishing writing.

He handed the envelope to the albatross waiting at the window with great composure.

"Say hello to Lorraine for me."

Matthew said casually.

Unexpectedly, Tianniu actually said:

"I forgot to take the ceramic bottle back last time. Laurent told me specifically. Where is the bottle?"

Matthew was surprised and said:

"Can you talk?"

Sweet Girl nodded:

"Of course I will, but you didn't talk to me last time, so I was embarrassed to take the initiative. After all, I'm just an albatross, and I can't behave too abnormally in human society.

So what about the bottle? "

Seeing that he failed to change the topic, Matthew could only hand over the ceramic bottle used to contain the plague field to Sweet Girl.

The albatross didn't mess around and just took off.

Matthew sighed.

After a while, Rega, wearing pajamas, came over excitedly:

"Matthew, you have no idea what I just saw!"

He also held a thick copy of League Weekly in his hand.

Matthew lazily said:

"Good morning, Lord Lord, what can make you so fussy?"

Rhaegar said mysteriously:

"Do you know Deep Blue Harbor? It is a beautiful and rich city on the east coast. I saw on the news that due to the war pressure from the Lion City in the north, the city owner of Deep Blue Harbor publicly selected a son-in-law. Do you know how many people he has? A daughter?"

Matthew replied calmly:

"7?"

Rega was shocked and said:

"how do you know?"

Matthew smiled:

"Any other news?"

Rega glanced at him suspiciously, then lowered his head and read the contents of the newspaper:

"Affected by the fierce battle between the evil dragon in the sea and the Eastern Guardian, tsunamis appeared in parts of the east coast. Some people saw a city in the clouds above the endless ocean. Many people speculated..."

Before he finished speaking, Matthew added:

"People speculate that the city may be the Eastern Fairyland, Naga Floating City or the Ruins on the Clouds?"

Rega glared and said:

"You peeked at my newspaper? No, this was delivered just now?"

Matthew smiled proudly:

"You should be happy that your magic advisor has his own intelligence channel, Lord."

At the same time, he thought that the serious job Luo Lan was looking for would not be the editor of Alliance Weekly, right?

Rhaegar thought about it carefully.

So he asked Matthew excitedly:

"Then do you think any man of the right age in our territory has a chance to hook up with the daughter of the Lord of Deep Blue Harbor?"

Matthew looked at him strangely:

"There are thousands of miles between Rolling Stone Town and the East Coast. Why are you considering this? It's as if our people have a chance to meet the princess of Deep Blue Harbor."

Rega was about to say something when he heard this.

At this time, Zeller walked in dusty, interrupting the conversation between the two.

"Has the haunting been resolved?"

Rhaegar took the coffee from Mrs. Wesley and took a sip and asked.

Zeller nodded:

"I found out that the source of the haunting is a group of very high-level ghosts, but they don't seem to be very aggressive. I played hide and seek with them for a few days, and finally reached a deal with them. They have now left the South Trading Post. It should be They are hiding in the underground city, and they should not harass us again in the short term."

Rhaegar said strangely:

"Why have things in the dungeon been running outside recently? Is the Underdark so scary that even ghosts can't live there?"

Zeller shrugged.

Matthew promptly handed over his plan for the scorched earth of death.

After he read it carefully, his eyes lit up:

"I think this plan is feasible, but the actual effect depends on the conditions of the experimental field. What do you think? Rega."

Rega thought for a while:

"I have asked a few old men in the past few days. They don't seem to be very optimistic about it, but they all think it can be tried. Since you agree, let's give it a try."

"But Matthew, you remember to be careful. This is the town of Rolling Stone. I don't want anything to appear on this land that will affect the reproduction, survival and contentment of my people. Do you understand?"

Matthew nodded solemnly.

The three chatted for a while.

Zeller suddenly asked:

"How are you doing with your Transfiguration?"

Matthew helplessly pointed to the three sheep on the ground and said:

"It's not going well. I seem to lack talent in the field of transformation. Strangely enough, through these days of hard work, I can clearly perceive what kind of existence a goat is, but I still can't turn a living creature into a The whole goat.”

With that said, he ran back to the office and pulled out a little pig.

Matthew used Malicious Transformation on Piggy.

Bang.

The piglet's body was covered with white wool, and its limbs already looked like a goat's, but its ears, nose, and tail still looked like a piglet.

Matthew spread his hands:

"See, that's it, it's always just a little bit closer."

Zeller observed for a while and said strangely:

"I don't think there's anything wrong with your transfiguration. Wait - I know where the problem is!"

He clapped his hands and asked Matthew:

"Did you not show even a trace of malice toward the target when you cast the spell?"

Matthew was stunned and said:

"Do you still need malice?"

Zeller said:

"certainly!"

"Think of the name of this spell, Malevolent Polymorph!"

"If you always use transformation on the target with good intentions, of course you won't be able to transform into the right one!"

Matthew suddenly understood.

It turns out that I am stuck here!

But soon he was confused:

"This little pig is so cute, it's hard for me to have any ill will towards it."

Zeller thought for a while and suddenly looked at Rega:

"Rhaega, help Matthew."

Rhaegar put down the newspaper and asked inexplicably:

"How to help?"

Zeller smiled and said:

"What you were good at when you were young was provocation. Don't tell me that you have forgotten your housekeeping skills. "

Rega thought for a while:

"It's not difficult."

As he spoke, he challenged Matthew and said:

"Looking at how skinny you are, you must have never had enough to eat since you were a child, right?"

"Learning a spell will waste the lives of so many little lambs, so why not change your profession and become a chef?"

Matthew deadpanned.

Zeller encouraged:

"Harder, Rhaegar."

Rega then thought about it again and suddenly smiled evilly:

"Your mom told me I was great in bed last night!"

Matthew had a sulky look on his face.

But the anger soon subsided.

Because his mother is not in this world.

Zeller encouraged again:

"Show off the same skills you had when you provoked the Succubus Queen!"

Rega had no choice but to put down the newspaper and said:

"I burned your woods."

And at that moment.

A primal rage exploded in Matthew's mind.

That anger quickly turned into spite.

He raised his hand instinctively.

There was a flash of light.

There is a goat behind the desk!

"You did it, Matthew!"

Zeller congratulated.

Matthew's face was also full of joy.

He was about to say something.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a young and beautiful shadow ran in from outside.

She said hello to the two of them, then looked around for a while, and asked strangely:

"Where's my dad?"

"Isn't he usually here at this hour?"

at this time.

The goat behind the desk meowed.

Instantly attracted Sif's attention.

…

There will be no more at two o'clock tomorrow afternoon. My heart suddenly feels unwell. I'm taking half a day off to go to the hospital for a checkup. I don't know if it's because I've been writing too much lately, too tired, or because of the sequelae of COVID-19. I'm sorry.
