The necromancer just wants to plant trees

…

Following the natural induction, Matthew came to the edge of the woods quietly.

No need to start the field.

The surrounding oak trees scrambled to report the vole's location to Matthew.

It was hiding in a hole on the hillside at the moment, with a pair of small, faint eyes drifting towards the woods from time to time.

obviously.

This is someone spying on every move in the oak forest through this familiar.

Because it never entered the woods, Matthew couldn't feel it.

Matthew said nothing. He quietly put a "hunting mark" on the vole and then retreated.

Asking questions is indeed a very useful ability.

Except for Peggy and Vole.

Matthew also got a lot of character information and other information.

However, the reason why the information displayed this time is so comprehensive is also related to the fact that this is Matthew's territory.

I waited until I arrived in a place I was unfamiliar with.

The quality and quantity of information may be greatly compromised.

But even so.

Questioning nature is still a valuable ability.

Matthew read the information quickly, excerpting useful content on the manuscript from time to time.

The night is getting darker.

Suddenly, the highlighted mark in his field of vision began to move.

Matthew immediately left the cemetery, transformed into a raven, and followed the field mouse at a distance.

A familiar is a magical being.

Although they can perform monitoring tasks for their owners, their owners must feed them mana regularly.

Otherwise, it will be difficult for the magical life to continue working for a long time.

Matthew didn't know how long the vole had been spying on the oak forest.

But it is not difficult to tell from the opponent's familiar return route that at least this is not the first time he has returned to Rolling Stone Town from the oak forest.

The voles entered Rolling Stone and swarmed into the business district.

Matthew's raven calmly stalks the field mouse.

It didn't take long.

As he passed through a busy neighborhood.

The vole stopped moving.

The highlighted hunting mark showed that the other party was parked on the third floor of a conspicuous building.

Matthew fell on the roadside fence.

The words Rolling Stone Chamber of Commerce were prominently displayed on the front door of that building.

He didn't see the interaction between the field mouse and its owner, but Thomas was most likely inside.

"The Rolling Stone Chamber of Commerce is Rega's property, is it Rega's people?"

Matthew shook his head secretly to push this ridiculous idea out of his mind.

He waited outside for a while.

About an hour later.

The vole climbed out of the building contentedly and ran diligently towards the oak forest again.

The Rolling Stone Chamber of Commerce is crowded with people.

Even though there were several people coming and going in the direction of the main entrance at night, Matthew could not find the owner of the field mouse.

After a while.

He flapped his wings and left, flying to the Lord's Mansion.

As expected by Matthew, the office hall was still brightly lit at night.

Zeller is still busy.

Matthew knocked on the door and walked in.

"Are you here to ask me for reimbursement?"

"Then you have to act quickly, because in a few days, Rhaegar's little treasury will be squandered by me."

When Zeller saw Matthew, the fatigue on his face faded a lot. He rubbed his cheeks with both hands, and his eyes became clearer.

"Reimbursement is of course the top priority, but I have a more urgent matter to ask you. Is there a warlock named Thomas among the members of the Rolling Stone Chamber of Commerce?"

Matthew asked tentatively.

Zeller nodded and said:

"There is such a person.

He is the Rolling Stone Chamber of Commerce's deputy for the Western Trade Route, second only to director Andre.

They are jointly responsible for the trade between the Rolling Stone Chamber of Commerce and several western territories.

The previous cotton agreement between Rolling Stone and High Leaf Collar was brokered by Andre.

The middle-aged man named Thomas is said to have contributed a lot. "

"But in my impression, he is just an ordinary person, not a warlock at all."

Matthew asked:

"So when was the last time you saw Thomas?"

The first thing he suspected was the Thousand Changers!

As a high-level warlock, Zeller had no reason to be unaware of warlocks of a lower level than himself.

Therefore, Matthew suspected that Thomas was being outsourced. Because the Thousand Changers had the previous profession and abilities, the warlock profession that did not belong to Thomas was also inherited.

Zeller replied with some surprise:

"It's been two or three months, right?"

"I don't often meet with the person in charge of the Rolling Stones Chamber of Commerce. Rhaegar only sees them once a month."

Matthew told him what he had discovered.

Zeller suddenly became serious:

"If he really is the Thousand Changes, this would be a great opportunity."

"We can't alert the enemy. Next, I plan to send the most elite scouts to monitor Thomas and try to dig out more intelligence."

Matthew hesitated and said:

"Are you sure your scouts can avoid being discovered by him?"

Zeller smiled faintly:

"Can you find my scout in Rolling Stone Town?"

Matthew's heart moved.

Even though Zeller does so much administrative work, in fact his nominal position is intelligence director, and the intelligence system of Rolling Stone is completely in his hands.

Matthew had also been curious about the people Zeller used to complete the formation of the intelligence network.

But the magic is.

With Matthew's keen perception and comprehensive collection of natural information, he didn't even notice where Zeller's scouts were!

This is enough to prove the concealment of Zeller's men.

Even Matthew couldn't find it, so it would be even harder for others to find it.

"good."

"If you need my cooperation, just ask. I'm very interested in the forces behind the Thousand Changes."

After thinking for a moment, Matthew chose to believe Zeller.

Zeller smiled gratefully.

The two talked for a while.

Matthew asked about the recent situation in the surrounding territories, and the word Zeller mentioned most often was high leaf collar.

"The situation in the High Leaf Territory is changing day by day. Just yesterday, the Black Dragon Lord officially appeared. He promised to protect the people of the High Leaf Territory from the war. After that, he threatened these people - if they are not willing to become If they are the people of a giant dragon, then they are likely to face the wrath of another giant dragon.

"Only a dragon can fight a dragon."

These were the words spoken by the black dragon himself.

In front of Long Wei.

Naturally, no one dared to refute his authority.

It is worth mentioning that.

We originally thought that the black dragon in Gaoye Territory was related to the two black dragons in the Underdark. It was either the little black dragon from Freezing City or the old black dragon from Black Dragon City. However, we found out after yesterday that this black dragon was not one of them, but a A wild young black dragon appeared out of nowhere.

His name is "Meo Nogas".

We had never heard of this name before. "

Speaking of which.

Zeller couldn't help but cough again. He immediately drank two sips of ginger water and his breath gradually calmed down.

"There have been several fights between the black dragon Meo Nogas and the red dragon Kusulus. The two sides are in a state of confrontation for the time being. But I am worried that this state will not last long. Once the two dragons reach a consensus, , then they are very likely to enter Rolling Stone Town at the same time.”

Concern washed over his face.

Matthew is feeling the pressure, too.

Based on the current situation in Rolling Stone Town, it doesn't mean that it can't deal with the dragon at all.

But when fighting this behemoth, many lives will be sacrificed.

One dragon is enough to give people a headache.

Not to mention there are three of them around Rolling Stone Town!

"The year when the dragon is active..."

"Why do you feel like you're targeting Rolling Stone?"

Matthew only thought it was evil.

He even doubted whether Rega's taunting ability was passively taking effect.

"So I think sometimes you have to strike first."

Matthew said:

"If we really want to start a full-scale war, we often have to move the war to the border or even the enemy's territory to ensure the safety of Rolling Stone Town to the greatest extent."

Zeller nodded and shook his head.

The general idea is that I agree with what Matthew said, but feel that it is too difficult to implement.

"Where's Li Weiqi? Hasn't he been wandering around Gaoye Ling? Has he discovered anything?"

Matthew asked.

Zeller smiled:

"Most of our information about Gao Ye Ling was provided by Li Weiqi.

Yesterday he wrote to say that he was very depressed -

The traces of Panlong proved to be a lie created by a businessman to sell fake goods.

He found nothing at Alpine Reservoir and is now on his way back to Rolling Stone.

But I guess he won't stay in Rolling Stone Town for too long. Li Weiqi has a restless temper. In addition, he has been in the inland for too long and hasn't eaten turtles for a while. He is probably greedy for it.

My guess is that he eventually made his way to the east coast, probably before winter set in, and headed down the Gem Bay to Northland.

The north may be his only hope to advance to legend.

He also told me.

During these days in Gao Yeling, a poet who liked to show his chest hair had been harassing him, saying that he wanted to interview him and write a novel about his deeds.

Li Weiqi was not interested in this, but he couldn't get rid of the poet.

And that poet claims to be your best friend, and Li Weiqi plans to come back and ask you what's going on.

You can prepare your answers in advance. "

Matthew smiled dumbly.

He knew that Li Weiqi and Luo Lan were both in Gaoye Ling, but he didn't expect that the two of them would be entangled with each other every day.

But in Lorraine's way of doing things.

Matthew seriously suspected that this guy wanted to arrange some script for Li Weiqi.

It’s just that Li Weiqi was not fooled.

"If that friend of yours is here, our confidence in slaying the dragon will be much greater."

"Li Weiqi himself admitted that Luo Lan is much better than him."

Zeller crossed his arms and looked at Matthew expectantly.

Matthew said uncertainly:

"Loran's character is very out-of-the-box and his thinking is difficult to figure out. I will try my best to invite him to help, but I am not sure whether he will really help."

Zeller nodded.

Immediately he stood up from the chair:

"I'll take you to see something else."

The two left the office hall, passed through the side door of the Lord's Mansion, and arrived at the barracks next door.

Zeller took Matthew to a remote warehouse.

After lighting the candle.

Matthew saw something covered by a thick tarpaulin in the center of the warehouse.

He lifted a corner of the tarp.

A thick and sharp metal pole appeared in front of his eyes.

underneath the metal pole.

It was an instrument that exuded strong murderous intent!

"Ballista?"

Matthew exclaimed softly.

"This is not an ordinary crossbow, this is a dragon crossbow specially designed to deal with extremely large creatures!

It was born before the Age of Enlightenment.

In history, dragons, titans, giants, Beamon...

Many giant creatures have died in its hands. "

Zeller calmly introduced:

"If there are twenty dragon crossbows, even if two giant dragons attack at the same time, I will still be sure to make them hateful."

"Too bad we only have one."

Matthew gently stroked the cold and rough mechanical surface of the dragon crossbow and couldn't help but ask:

"Is there no way to imitate it?"

Zeller shook his head and said:

"The industrial foundation of Rolling Stone Town is very weak and cannot be used to imitate dragon crossbows on a large scale. Moreover, the production of such things must be carried out quietly, otherwise it will attract the perception of giant creatures, and then the dragon crossbow may be destroyed before it is completed. disaster."

"The dragon crossbow was invented by the dwarves at the bottom of the Helen Mountains, but soon the tribe of the dwarf inventor was destroyed by dragon fire."

"I show you this because I want you to inquire through the Seven Saints Alliance's channels whether there are any dragon crossbows available for purchase on the market."

"In addition, the preparation of other war supplies also needs to be carried out intensively. I also plan to rebuild the city wall of Rolling Stone Town——

Alas, in the face of war, even if Rhaegar's treasury is drained, everything seems to be stretched thin. "

Speaking of this, Zeller sighed sadly.

Matthew asked silently:

"So do you blame Rhaegar - I mean his decision not to cooperate with the Blood Banner Kingdom?"

Zeller blinked:

"No, of course not."

"Our situation will not change much because of Rhaegar's decision. If he really decides to introduce the power of the devil to fight against the dragon, then there is no doubt that what we are studying now should be specifically targeting the devil. props."

"Since devils can kill dragons, it is obvious that they must be more terrifying things."

Matthew nodded thoughtfully.

"I'll leave it to you to take care of the dragon crossbow."

"Thomas, I will notify you if anything happens."

Zeller said.

Matthew quickly left the barracks, and Zeller returned to the office hall as always.

quickly.

The sound of coughing came from the corridor again.

…

The next few days.

Matthew has been staying in the cemetery, always turning a blind eye to the surveillance eyes outside the oak forest.

With Matthew’s dedicated efforts.

Many items on the backlog have been completed or updated.

The first is the "Dark Life Contract".

Matthew used the negative energy fountain in the cemetery to increase the number of layers of this spell to the 19th level.

This means that the health of all undead under his command has been increased by 19%.

This is an extremely impressive number.

An extra 20% of health not only means an increase in tankiness, but also indirectly increases fault tolerance and the ability to cause damage.

After all, if you live a little longer, you can get two more cuts.

This principle applies even to the lowest level skeletons.

The reason why he did not make the 20th layer of Dark Life Contract was because every 20th layer of this spell would attract revenge from the negative energy plane.

Matthew has been very busy lately and doesn't want to cause trouble.

Let’s do it later when we have more time to break through the levels!

Next is the "Skull of Augustus", the Necromancer's exclusive weapon.

After Matthew mastered the field of "necromancy".

He has the qualifications to be in tune with Zhuanwu.

After Matthew's unremitting efforts in the past few days, he quickly completed the introduction to synchronization.

After getting started, he only needs to take out the weapon and warm it for three to five minutes every day.

Up to three months.

Matthew can become the true owner of the Skull of Augustus and enjoy the powerful attributes and effects of this weapon.

This makes him look forward to autumn.

The third thing is that Matthew successfully mastered the "Bone-Cracking Howl" on the to-be-learned list.

This spell was recommended to him by Margaret.

The prerequisites for Bone-Shattering Howl and Skull of Augustus are level four, but with the support of "Field: Necromancy", Matthew can master them in advance.

Matthew always learned spells related to the undead very quickly.

special.

In the process of learning this spell.

His "Suriel Chanting Method" has made great progress.

The standard chanting time of Boneshattering Howl is 9 seconds.

Matthew has now compressed it to 6 seconds.

Once the synchronization of "Skull of Augustus" is completed, this number is expected to be compressed to 3 seconds with a 100% increase in singing speed.

And besides being fast.

Matthew's "Bone-Breaking Howl" is also far more lethal than ordinary people.

According to his speculation.

As long as he finishes chanting, the skeleton undead below the fourth level will lie down in almost seconds.

Level 5 and above can struggle for a while, but it can only be a death struggle.

This spell is an out-and-out bone dragon nemesis.

With it.

Matthew has added a new link to his tactical package.

"When you encounter a bone dragon in the future, try to instigate rebellion first."

"If you fail to instigate rebellion, you can also open the contract field and try the overlord contract."

"The last step is to recover the bones with the Bone Crushing Howl."

Matthew touched his chin.

The process was perfect.

Just waiting for more bone dragons to be delivered to your door!

And the fourth thing is also related to homology.

After a long hard work.

Matthew finally succeeded in synchronizing the immortal realm of the demigod!

Today's demigod persona has gained new effects.

…

"Demigod Person (Domain: Moonlight/Undead)

1.Moonlight (omitted)

2. Immortal——

Current level of mastery: Beginner.

Effect 1: Undead Guards (You can designate 10 undead to be your "guards". The undead guards will gain three times the health value, higher attack power, a ray of shared divinity and higher basic resistance. sex)

Effect 2: Undead Army II (the upper limit of your summons is increased to 20 times the current standard, and cannot be combined with "Undead Army")

Your current maximum number of single summons is: 360. (order*6*20)

Effect 3: Undead Familia (You can activate the power of your personality to recruit a loyal family for yourself. The family does not account for the number of summons.)

Effect 4: Deep in the realm (the next time you explore the realm of the undead, this person will be turned into a weapon that can be effective in the realm, and you will have the opportunity to explore deeper into the realm)."

…

The attunement to the demigod personality is actually to infuse the power of the domain into it.

Been pouring for a long time.

Naturally, it can feed back more powerful effects to itself.

The most powerful thing about this thing is that it can accommodate different fields.

It's just that the more areas there are, the slower the synchronization speed will be.

"I wonder if I can use the equilibrium field to solve the problem of slow coherence in the later stage?"

Matthew thought to himself.

After the synchronization of the undead is completed.

The Oak Domain was put on the agenda.

Considering that Matthew still has a dozen fields waiting for support.

This godhead will not be able to escape the fate of being poured into it by Matthew every day in the short term.

The days passed by such trivial and fulfilling little things.

quickly.

The time has come on July 17th.

this day.

It's the day of the "Potato Dog Fighting Contest".

It was also the day when Matthew took the stage to receive commendations from outstanding citizens.
