The necromancer just wants to plant trees

Chapter 185 Margaret’s Elimination Method!

…

"What...Sif?"

"etc!

Is this voice—Matthew?

Why are you here?

Could it be that one of the sisters turned into you? "

In the fishing net.

Rhaegar turned his head sideways with difficulty, trying to look at Matthew through the cracks in the net.

Matthew said somewhat amusedly:

"It seems that your sister has left a deep shadow on you."

While talking.

The fishing net continued to shrink and turned into a pair of fishnet stockings wrapped around both sides of Rhaegar's arms.

Rhaegar breathed a sigh of relief.

Matthew casually cut out a dagger, easily cut off the fishnet stockings, and then helped Rhaegar up from the ground.

He looked back at Margaret.

The female devil she was fighting with was nowhere to be seen. No wonder the other party's binding spell failed.

"We received some bad news. Little Paton even thought you were dead. In order to confirm in time whether it is time to carry out the lord handover ceremony in Rolling Stone Town, I came here to see you."

In Rhaegar's surprised eyes.

Matthew explained lightly.

Rhaegar suddenly looked grateful.

And then the next second.

Most of this gratitude was gone.

"Zeller said that this plane trip can be reimbursed. You should be okay with that, right?"

Matthew said.

Rhaegar's throat muttered twice:

"I think you should be more calm and don't have to come over to see me. Look, am I not alive and kicking?"

Matthew was about to say something.

Margaret has returned to the two of them.

"She ran away."

"We need to quickly clean up the battlefield and then leave here. I guess within fifteen minutes at most, this place will be surrounded by the troops of the Bru tribe and the Blood Flag Kingdom."

Having said this.

She snapped her fingers, and in a flash of white light, a goblin with sinister eyebrows, rat-like eyes, a white backpack, and exaggerated gold earrings hanging from both earlobes appeared on the spot.

"speed."

Margaret gave the order.

The goblin trotted all the way and began to touch the corpses on the battlefield.

It is extremely skilled in its techniques and moves as fast as lightning. It can dry out all valuable things on a corpse almost every three seconds.

Matthew recognized this creature.

This is a treasure goblin.

The Treasure Goblin is a highly intelligent creature, so named because it likes to collect loot and always carries good things in its backpack.

They actually just look similar to goblins. They are essentially advanced fey creatures that have mastered a small amount of magic and space-related abilities.

In Irondor, there are many idle adventurers who dream that they will bump into a treasure goblin and become famous.

For mages, this creature is also very suitable as a pet or slave.

This was the first time Matthew saw a lively treasure gnome.

Have to admit.

He specializes in martial arts, and this guy can clean up the battlefield much more efficiently than A Bing.

But Matthew was too embarrassed to touch the loot.

After all, Margaret herself committed suicide.

The most he can do is pick up some things she doesn't want.

"Are you interested in these bodies?"

Margaret caught Matthew's gaze.

Matthew nodded:

"The corpses of demons, demons, and vampires are rare on the Material Plane."

Margaret waved her hand generously:

"Then they are all yours!"

“Just ask Blinken to pretend for you!”

Matthew was slightly startled:

"Blinken?"

Immediately he reacted:

“You call that treasure goblin Blinken?”

Margaret took out a large bag of magic cookies, tore it open, and started chewing.

She answered vaguely:

"Yes, yes."

“Not just Blinken, every ex-boyfriend has a slave name in my life——

I'm quite affectionate, aren't I? "

Said.

She suddenly condensed a long whip out of the void and struck it hard on the treasure goblin's thin back.

Snapped!

"Blinken, come back to this adult to take orders!"

The goblin trembled all over, but he didn't dare to neglect his feet. He shrunk to an inch and rushed to Matthew.

"Pack up all the bodies for him! If you miss one, just lie down on it yourself."

Margaret ordered without question.

Under the flattering eyes of the treasure goblin.

Matthew handed the body bag to the other person.

Look at the treasure gnome working diligently.

Matthew couldn't help but said curiously:

"How many ex-boyfriends do you have?"

Margaret chewed vigorously the magic biscuits used to replenish her mana:

"Why do you ask?"

"Do you also want to join?"

Matthew smiled dumbly.

When he looked back, Rhaegar had already taken care of his appearance and was no longer as embarrassed as before.

"This is Rhaegar, the lord of Rolling Stone, the prince of the Blood Banner Kingdom, my friend."

"This is Ms. Margaret, a fifth-level mage who has few opponents among the legends. She is half of my teacher."

Matthew quickly introduced.

The two nodded to each other, exchanged a few words, and the treasure goblin over there settled the situation.

Rhaegar took the initiative and said:

"I know a safer place, let's go there and talk."

Matthew took the heavy body bag from Margaret's hand, and his heart was filled with the joy of a good harvest.

"But if we leave on foot, won't we be easily overtaken by others?"

he asked with some concern.

Margaret waved her hand, pointing to a biological airship still emitting smoke not far away and said:

"That one can still be driven."

Matthew explains why:

"Really?

But there are three of us.

There are only two seats on the airship.

How about Rhaegar...

Are you aggrieved? "

Rhaegar patted his chest:

"Do you want me to squeeze in?"

"it does not matter."

"I can cooperate."

One minute later.

The biological airship with green smoke coming out of its tail suddenly sailed away from the surface.

within the cabin.

Matthew and Margaret were huddled together as before.

Rhaegar, on the other hand, had a safety rope tied around his waist.

He was hung silently below the airship.

Fortunately the trip didn't last long.

About twenty minutes later.

The biological airship flew straight towards the sky.

Margaret held Rhaegar in her left hand and Matthew in her right hand, and landed on the ground using flying as usual.

The dizzy Rega calmed down for a moment.

After a while, I finally found the safe spot I mentioned.

It was an underground spider tunnel.

After passing through a secret door.

The humid air hits your face, mixed with the thick smell of sulfur, making your face feel slightly sour.

boom.

Several balls of mage fire floated in the air.

Everything in the tunnel was revealed.

"Matthew, let's go inside to talk. I have something to tell you."

Rhaegar gave Matthew a hint.

The two of them were about to walk in.

Margaret took a step outside:

"It's okay, you can just talk here. I'll go outside to check the situation, and there must be someone keeping an eye on me."

Said.

Her figure disappeared behind the secret door.

"You are a very reasonable teacher."

Rhaegar praised.

Matthew nodded:

"Margaret is indeed different from ordinary Alliance mages."

"So are you interested in being an ex?"

Rhaegar smiled evilly.

Apparently he also heard the origin of the treasure goblin's name.

Matthew rolled his eyes:

"It's better to take care of yourself first. We promised to go home easily, but why did it become like this?"

Rhaegar sighed softly:

"It seems that the message I sent to Zeller was intercepted."

“Here’s the thing, I was planning to lay low and suddenly return to the Red and Black without notifying anyone.

In fact I did this too.

No one knew anything about it when I was diving into Red and Black.

After him, I contacted several old guys in the castle. They were all loyal to my father and were unlikely to leak secrets.

I learned the secret behind Sif's awakening from them and from the castle's collection of books.

My fears came true.

Sif's awakening was not normal.

She is now facing unprecedented danger! "

Matthew said solemnly:

"What danger?"

Rhaegar said with a sad face:

"She may fall into a long-term deep sleep due to failure to awaken. This kind of deep sleep is almost endless. No one can say when the symptoms of the deep sleep will disappear. The greater possibility is that after a certain long period, she will fall into a deep sleep again. I won’t wake up either.”

Matthew was stunned and said:

"Why is this happening?"

Rhaegar shook his head:

"is my problem."

"Because of her childhood education and the environment she was exposed to, Sif is a little too pure and kind."

"Devils are naturally evil, and the awakening of the devil's bloodline must also require some evil elements as assistance."

"But Sif doesn't have these things."

"She is so kind, maybe so kind that she doesn't even have evil thoughts."

"In this case, the bloodline from the ancestors turned from a gift to a curse. This curse crazily took the evil elements from Sif. Her weak body could not support it at all. In the end, she could only temporarily avoid this by sleeping. a little."

"But sleeping cannot fundamentally change the situation. She needs evil power!"

Matthew understood.

He said solemnly:

"So, if Sif kills a few people and does a few bad things now, is it possible to satisfy the evil element?"

Rega hesitated for a moment with a complicated expression, and then said uncertainly:

"Not necessarily. It might be too late to do something evil now, and Sif won't do that."

"You may think that her temper is always soft and weak. In fact, she is a very stubborn girl. If you ask her to kill someone to survive, she may not agree."

Matthew thought for a while:

"Is it possible that she's just being stubborn towards you?"

Rhaegar stared at him with bull's eyes.

Matthew quickly waved his hand:

"I was just joking to lighten the mood."

"But what does this have to do with your current situation?"

Rhaegar explained:

"I know there is another way to solve Sif's problem. In the old castle of the Blood Flag family, there is a treasure called the Holy Grail of Sin, which can provide the evil elements needed for Sif's awakening.

But I am not qualified to take this item, or even borrow it.

The people of the Blood Flag family were on strict guard against it, and the guards nearby were so tight that even a fly couldn't fly past it.

It is almost impossible to obtain.

Forced into desperation.

I can only choose to give it a try.

I left the castle and exposed my whereabouts, attracting people from the Blood Banner Kingdom to come to me;

In order to deal with them, I privately informed the people of the Bulu tribe.

Anyway, they are old enemies, and if they don't fight now, they will fight later.

At that time, I had been avoiding the pursuit of both sides, in order to attract the attention of most people in Escana, and the most important thing was to lure away the legendary devil Luticia who was in charge of the red and black.

Judging from the current situation, this plan was only half successful. Many tieflings did leave the Red and Black Castle to look for me, but Lutitia did not appear.

But it shouldn't be far.

I guess after Lilith fails, she will come looking for me!

that time.

That's when Asma and Dulin, who were lurking deep in the castle, took action! "

Rhaegar explained his plan in a low voice.

Matthew frowned:

"You want to steal your own treasure?"

"Is your relationship really that bad?"

"I think they still value you quite a bit. Can't you sacrifice your body and discuss a rental plan with them?"

Rhaegar sighed:

"If only it were that simple. The Holy Grail of Sin is no ordinary treasure."

"It is a burial object of the ancestors of past generations. It was buried in the cemetery on the hill behind the Red and Black Castle. It was placed among the legendary sacrifices in the Blood Banner Kingdom along with other treasures."

"Only members of the Blood Flag royal family after death are eligible to enter the cemetery. Any attempt to break in under any other circumstances will be regarded as a heinous crime!"

"I know them very well, including the old retainers. It is impossible for those old-fashioned guys to agree to let me enter the cemetery."

"So I had to find a way to sneak in."

Matthew's face was also very solemn:

"But the two knights Asma and Dulin don't seem to be good at thieves."

Rega said helplessly:

"In my haste, I couldn't think of anything better to do."

Matthew frowned.

He asked a few more detailed questions.

Rhaegar answered promptly.

The end.

Rhaegar suddenly asked:

"Your mentor, she seems to be very good at fighting. Can she deal with the legend?"

Without waiting for Matthew to answer.

Suddenly a loud voice came from outside the secret door:

"Can!"

Matthew looked in the direction of the secret door with some humor:

"Are you eavesdropping?"

There was silence outside for a while.

After a long time, Margaret's voice came:

"I wasn't eavesdropping, your voices were too loud..."

The two looked at each other.

Inadvertently, they walked towards the depths of the tunnel.

Rega said:

"Anyway, I have to continue running around the border. To attract the attention of both parties, I have to attract Luticia, and then escape and return to the main material world at the right time."

"Hopefully Asma and Dulin will succeed."

However, he was not finished yet.

A bloody phantom was quickly formed in front of Rega, and a very gentle voice came from the phantom:

"Are you back?"

"My dearest brother, Rhaegar?"

"These two servants of yours are so restless. They actually sneaked into the castle. Don't they know that the realm of legendary devils is very sensitive? Hehehe..."

Having said that.

Two screams came from the blood shadow.

Rega's face suddenly turned pale:

"It's broken! It's Asma and Dulin!"

"That's right, it's them."

The gentle voice said again:

"Don't worry, they are the registered guardian knights of the Blood Flag family. I will not hurt them. I just can't guarantee whether they will change their allegiance after a long time. After all, I am the most outstanding person of this generation of the Blood Flag family. character."

"Just wait for me where you are. I will come to you as soon as I take away the contract from them."

Finish this sentence.

The blood shadow disappeared instantly.

Rhaegar's face was full of depression.

Soon this depression turned into nervousness:

"It's Luticia. She lied. She is approaching me quickly. Damn it, she actually knows the secret of the Blood Flag's bloodline. She can determine my location at any time!"

"Ten minutes at most, no, it could be seven minutes, and she will find this place!"

Matthew suggested:

"Let's return to the main material realm first and then make long-term plans."

Rhaegar shook his head quickly:

"No, Luticia has left the castle now, but this is an opportunity.

It is impossible for Asma and Dulin to reveal my plan. She most likely thought that I might want to steal something in the castle.

But in fact the cemetery is on the hill behind the castle.

This is really an opportunity.

If we can get there now, the guards there must be very lax, and maybe a high-level invisibility spell can sneak in.

Damn it!

It would be great if there was an instant teleportation scroll! "

Compared to Rhaegar's excitement.

Matthew maintained absolute sanity:

"We are not yet strong enough to confront a legend head-on. Even if you succeed in inducing the tiger to leave the mountain, even if we can reach your ancestor's cemetery, the tomb is probably extremely dangerous, and the probability of finding a safe sacrifice is very slim."

Why doesn't Rhaegar understand this?

He also smiled bitterly and said:

"You are right. The most important thing is that we do not have an outstanding thief in our team. It seems that we can only return to Rolling Stone Town and ask Richard to take action..."

But at this time.

Margaret's figure suddenly appeared between the two.

Her expression looked a little impatient:

"Who said you can't rob tombs without a good thief?"

"I have very good lock-picking skills and trap elimination skills."

"If you can really attract the attention of that legend and provide me with enough information about the cemetery, Matthew and I can do it for you!"

The two of them were startled by her and involuntarily took a step back.

Matthew looked at Margaret in confusion:

"Didn't you say there was no eavesdropping?"

Margaret said without changing her expression:

"It's true that there was no eavesdropping, but there was a crack in the door, and your voices leaked out from inside."

The two of them were about to look at the secret door.

Margaret suddenly waved her fist in the air.

There was a fist-sized hole in the secret door.

The wind blew in from outside.

The two looked at each other, both convinced of Margaret's reasons.

"How about it?"

"Do you need my help?"

Margaret smiled what she thought was a kind smile.

Rhaegar was caught in a dilemma.

Of course he understands that there can be no good intentions without reason in this world.

The reason why Margaret is willing to help is probably because she is interested in the treasures in the sacrificial room!

"Can you promise me not to take too many things?"

Rhaegar asked with great difficulty:

"After all, they are the burial objects of my ancestors."

Margaret agreed:

"Of course, if you ask, I can take none. After all, Matthew is my good friend."

Rega's eyes lit up:

"Really?"

Margaret said immediately:

"It's fake. I just said that to make you feel better."

"Really, I have to get to the bottom of it!"

Rhaegar suddenly smiled bitterly.

Matthew looked at Margaret curiously:

"Can you really deal with the legend?"

Margaret proudly puffed up her flat chest:

"I have 4.6 million!"

"I'm not necessarily afraid of ordinary legends."

Matthew asked with great interest:

"Where's the yellow jade dragon we met last time?"

Margaret's face fell:

"Don't mention him!"

"He is no ordinary legend. Besides, he also has the Mushroom King and the weird microorganism beside him. He is two and a half legends!"

In the tunnel.

Rhaegar paced back and forth.

Half a minute later.

He suddenly stamped his foot:

"Forget it, I will risk my life for Sif!"

"Those old people who lie in the cemetery every day should understand me, right? They are all dead anyway, so why leave so many burial objects for the benefit of future generations?"

While talking.

He handed Matthew a map, three glass bottles filled with blood, and an ancient amulet.

“This amulet will protect you from attacks by the undead guards in the cemetery;

These three bottles of blood are mine and are valid for about seven hours. You can use them according to the situation;

This is a map of the Red and Black Castle, where you can find the location of the cemetery and the specific directions between sacrifices.

Remember, the treasure Sif needs is something called the Holy Grail of Sin, make no mistake!

Also, don’t even think about pulling up the corpses of my ancestors! "

Rhaegar warned Matthew.

Matthew didn't want to go.

But hear this.

Suddenly his eyes lit up.

It seems that taking a trip is not a bad idea...

"What does the Holy Grail of Sin look like? Can you describe it?"

Matthew asked.

“You’ll know it when you see it!”

"A treasure of this level will tell you its name, but you have to be careful not to be fooled by it, otherwise you may become its slave."

Rhaegar said hastily:

"I can feel that Luticia is very close to us. I must escape immediately!"

"This spider tunnel leads to the heart of the Blood Flag Kingdom. It will only take you three hours at the fastest to reach Red and Black."

"But there are many traps in this tunnel, so you must be careful!"

Said.

He patted Matthew on the shoulder and quickly left the secret door.

Soon after.

Rhaegar's breath disappeared outside the secret door.

"Advanced Escape Scroll, your lord is really a rich man!"

"If he has a lot of high-end goods like this, he might actually be able to deal with the legendary devil."

Margaret said with some envy.

"I just hope that the next time we meet, he is not tied to the ground with fishnet stockings."

Matthew shrugged.

At the moment, Margaret used a repair technique on the leaky secret door, and then used other methods to clear the traces of the tunnel entrance and exit.

The two of them walked quickly towards the depths of the tunnel.

As time goes by.

The tension in Matthew's heart gradually faded away, replaced by slight worry.

It seems that the legendary devil is indeed chasing Rhaegar.

"It's his sister after all. I hope the attack can be gentler."

Just think of this.

Matthew couldn't help but speed up his progress.

But he didn't take a few steps out.

He was suddenly grabbed by Margaret!

"There's a trap ahead!"

Margaret quickly threw a trap detection spell.

For a moment, the ground in front of you, the walls on both sides, the ceiling above your head, and even the air between them were filled with scarlet lines.

That's a trap trigger!

"So many traps?"

"Isn't it troublesome to rule it out?"

Matthew suggested:

"Can you drive through any door?"

But then he discovered that the vision in the passage ahead was dark, as if it was under the effect of darkness. If he rashly opened any door forward, he would most likely crawl into the wall, causing tragedy.

"Don't use any door. Countermeasures against mages are usually set up near this kind of trap group."

Margaret explained as if in class:

"The middle-of-the-road way to deal with traps is to find thieves."

"The worst way is to use trap elimination spells to eliminate them one by one."

Matthew couldn't help but ask:

"Aren't you going to use the trap removal spell?"

Margaret shook her head confidently:

"of course not."

"I have my own trap elimination technique, which is what I call the best method. I named it "Margaret Elimination Method"! "

"You take ten steps back."

Matthew complied without knowing why.

The next second.

Margaret's body lit up with colorful lights.

First is the mana shield.

Another ball of force.

There are also arrow deflection, sword invulnerability, steel body, damage transfer, physical rebound, magic absorption, fire damage immunity, acid protection...a lot of protective spells.

that moment.

Matthew suddenly guessed what Margaret’s elimination method meant!

The next second.

But I saw Margaret walking into the trap with her head held high.

Snap, snap, snap.

The dense sound of machinery sounded deep in the secret passage.

Countless huge fireballs emerged from the stone walls on both sides, followed by dozens of sharp steel spears piercing alternately, and a large number of crossbow arrows shot at Margaret's body from all corners.

Ma Youfu's acid arrow.

Chain lightning.

Curse of weakness.

Poison Cloud Technique.

The floor collapsed.

The acid expands.

In an instant, countless spells broke out at the same time.

Even if you are ten steps away.

Matthew also had to take out the defensive poem and call up protective spells to withstand the aftermath of the trap's explosion.

And it is a place that is really bombarded by various forces.

I have completely fallen into the maze of colorful colors.

Matthew could not see Margaret.
