The necromancer just wants to plant trees

Chapter 230: Won’t your girlfriend be angry?

Matthew was speechless.

Seeing that Hibbert still looked confused, he couldn't help but point to the magic words in the sky.

Hibbert suddenly realized:

"Oh, you are Matthew! Sorry, sorry, I didn't expect you to come so quickly."

With that he quickly canceled the trick of releasing magical fireworks.

Then he stretched out his hand to Matthew awkwardly:

"Should we shake hands first?"

Matthew extended his gloved right hand in a friendly manner, but Hibbert extended his left hand.

So Matthew also stretched out his left hand, but in this gap, Hibbert awkwardly stretched out his right hand.

The two looked at each other.

Before Matthew could react, Hibbert gritted his teeth, stretched out his hands like lightning, crossed his hands and held Matthew's hands, and then swung them up and down vigorously.

"It was really difficult, but I finally succeeded in shaking hands."

Hibbert said with relief.

Matthew's facial muscles twitched slightly, and he didn't know what to say.

Hibbert looked at him with clear eyes:

"What should we do next?"

Matthew could only say:

"Maybe we should sit down somewhere and talk?"

Hibbert suddenly realized:

"Oh of course, this is how normal people treat guests."

"You come with me."

He behaved very politely.

Matthew secretly breathed a sigh of relief and followed Hibbert towards the side.

The latter didn't go far, however.

He led Matthew to a bench in the square next to him and sat down silently.

Hibbert had his knees together and was sitting obediently, but he looked a little embarrassed.

Matthew stood beside him, feeling the strange looks of countless busybodies around him, and his cheeks felt slightly hot again.

"What's wrong?"

Hibbert said nervously:

"I don't know what people out there are supposed to do, but this chair does meet the criteria of being able to sit down and talk - maybe you should tell me more criteria?"

If it were anyone else, Matthew would definitely feel that the other person was playing tricks on him.

But Hibbert feels particularly sincere.

Although Matthew felt uncomfortable, he didn't have much disgust.

So he tried to express himself more clearly:

"I felt like we needed a quieter, more private setting rather than being in the public eye talking about what's going to happen next."

Hibbert said "Oh."

He glanced at the onlookers around him with some embarrassment:

"I wanted to drive them all away, but I felt that it was a bit bullying and unreasonable, so I let them do it."

"Well, let's see. My demiplane is pretty big. How about we go sit inside?"

Said.

Hibbert quickly opened a portal.

A lilac magical light flashed past.

Matthew hesitated for a moment, then entered the door with Hibbert under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Out of sight of onlookers.

Matthew felt extremely relaxed.

But the situation in the demiplane in front of him also surprised him——

The scope of this demiplane is much larger than the area that a normal mage can carve out.

Matthew looked over and couldn't see the end.

But this place is too deserted.

Apart from the vast desert, there were only a few cactus dangling in Matthew's eyes.

"You like the desert?"

Matthew asked.

Hibbert shook his head and said:

"No, I'm just too lazy to take care of it. A new demiplane must have a kind of terrain and a kind of plant, so I chose desert and cactus. So far, they are doing well."

Matthew took a few steps and his expression changed slightly.

This demiplane is indeed desolate.

But it gives people a feeling of bursting with vitality, as if a force is suppressing this vitality.

That force is obviously Hibbert, the master of the demiplane.

In fact, whenever he wants to.

I'm afraid this place can become a sub-dimension with a relatively complete ecosystem at any time!

"Is this genius?"

Matthew was secretly shocked.

He did not look down upon Hibbert because of his lack of knowledge of the world.

on the contrary.

He began to realize that Hibbert's talent was greater than he had imagined.

"As long as the field he masters is injected into this demiplane, both will produce a qualitative leap. Hibbert's field may even be directly sublimated, reaching a state that ordinary legendary mages would envy..."

Matthew thought in his mind.

"Field sublimation" is usually a goal that legendary mages strive to achieve. Only in sublimated fields can they have the opportunity to come into contact with the more core "original laws", and above the original laws is the pinnacle of the field that a mage can master. ——

"Fruit of Innocence".

Although Matthew currently masters many fields, none of them shows signs of improvement.

He knew very well that this was because his understanding and perception of the field was relatively weak.

Although he vaguely holds the key to entry into the field, if he wants to continue to deepen, he may need more efforts.

But Hibbert is different.

He seemed naturally endeared to all the rules of magic.

There were signs of domain sublimation before the legend, which is enough to prove everything.

No wonder he is considered one of the top three mage talents in history!

Thoughts flashed by.

Matthew looked at Hibbert beside him, and was about to say something, but found that the latter was looking at him blankly, obviously in a daze.

Matthew waited a moment.

However, Hibbert still looked dazed.

He could only cough:

"Are you thinking about something important?"

Hibbert's eyes suddenly began to focus. He looked at Matthew with an expression of confusion and relief on his face:

"Oh, I'm just thinking habitually. There are always some unanswerable questions popping up in my brain, and I think about them uncontrollably. This causes me to often be in a daze. Sorry. .”

Matthew asked curiously:

"Unanswerable questions? What are they specifically?"

Hibbert looked thoughtful:

"It's hard to explain it clearly in a few words. For example, there is a question that came up when I was taking the entrance exam for the Magic Academy as a child. To this day, I have never been able to get an answer."

Matthew looked encouraging:

"What do you think."

Hibbert said slowly:

“I remember clearly that there were 102 students in the square at that time, more girls than boys, but they were all excited, some were whispering, and some were pretending to be calm but actually trembling.

We were told beforehand that the entrance exam for the Magic Academy was to learn sleight of hand.

The specific rules are that everyone gathers in front of a huge magic stone tablet. The stone tablet is engraved with all kinds of magic words, which records all the tricks that have been discovered in history.

Within two hours.

As long as you can learn three tricks, you can become an apprentice in a general magic academy;

Five magic tricks will have the opportunity to enter the elite magic academy;

If there are more than ten types, you will directly become a palace mage apprentice. "

Hear this.

Matthew felt that he had guessed the truth, but he couldn't help but ask:

"How many have you learned?"

Hibbert thought for a while:

"516 species."

Matthew’s eyes twitched:

"So why are you confused?"

Hibbert sighed and said:

"The little girl next to me only learned three kinds after all her efforts."

"And the boy from a noble family in front of me cried for a long time and couldn't even learn one."

"Since then, I have had this doubt in my mind: Why can't they learn? Why am I the only one so special? Why do I receive such preferential treatment?"

"Everything that happened later intensified my thinking. Everyone said I was a genius, but no one told me why this was the case."

"I'm confused by this, I'm hurting by this confusion, and I really wish someone could help me. Can you tell me why this is happening, Matthew?"

He looked at Matthew with a particularly sincere and clear look.

Matthew resisted the urge to punch him.

"Sorry, Hibbert, I'm afraid I can't give you the answer. If I were with you at that time, I might be similar to that little girl who only knows three kinds of tricks."

Matthew shook his head and sighed.

Hibbert sighed heavily upon hearing this.

At this moment.

Hibbert's body suddenly lit up with a strange light!

His expression changed and his voice trembled slightly:

"It's broken, Matthew!"

That moment.

Hibbert's face became extremely pale!

"What's wrong?"

Matthew was startled.

on the data column.

"Tip: The person you are talking to, Hibbert, will automatically be promoted to legend and his level will be raised to LV21.

Hibbert is using the legendary law to reshape his body..."

"Matthew, give me your hand, help me quickly!"

Hibbert looked pained.

Matthew didn't hesitate and immediately handed over his left hand. Unexpectedly, Hibbert bit into his palm!

Matthew's eyelids jumped when he was bitten by Hibbert. His instinct told him that this guy must have bitten his skin!

The next second.

A powerful stream of heat surged in from the palm of Matthew's left hand.

Matthew wanted to slap Hibbert away.

But with the injection of heat.

He held back forcefully.

After a while.

Hibbert let go of his mouth in relief, and looked at Matthew with eyes filled with gratitude.

Matthew looked at the data column silently.

"Tip: You received 10,000 XP points from Hibbert!

You notice Hibbert forcibly interrupts Legend's automatic promotion.

His level returned to LV20. "

"Did you just enter Legend?"

Matthew said harshly.

Hibbert threw a healing spell on Matthew's palm and replied somewhat casually:

"seems like it."

Matthew couldn't help but continue to ask:

"How often do you get into Legend?"

Hibbert replied honestly:

"Once a month, I would handle it every time before, but I have been thinking about Watcher's Heights recently, and I forgot about the automatic promotion. Fortunately, you are here! Otherwise, it almost caused a disaster!"

Hear this.

Matthew had mixed feelings in his heart:

"Why is being promoted to Legend a disaster?"

Hibbert explained:

"My mentor's only request for me is that I cannot enter Legend before I am 30 years old."

Matthew asked:

"So how old are you this year?"

Hibbert thought for a moment:

"28 years old? Maybe 25, but definitely not 30."

"Oops, how old am I this year?"

"But it doesn't matter. I'll find out when I get time to go home and ask my mother."

Look at him talking to himself.

this moment.

Matthew finally understood why Margaret was gnashing her teeth when she mentioned the Temple Mage.

She worked hard for the path of legend, and had to risk her life to win a chance.

But what about Hibbert.

Even if he eats, drinks, or sleeps, he may automatically be promoted to legend!

Matthew felt like a cheater.

But compared to these top monsters in the league.

He is nothing!

Fortunately, in the world of mages, talent does not mean everything.

Matthew quickly balanced his mentality:

"I can only say that your talent in magic is enough to make everyone envious."

Hibbert said indifferently:

"Envy? Maybe, but I'm not happy."

Matthew couldn't help but retort:

“An unhappy person is never happy at any time.”

"Compared to an unhappy ordinary person or an unhappy magic genius, which one do you think is happier?"

Hear this.

Hibbert's eyes were stunned, and then he looked apologetic:

"You're right, maybe I'm too greedy."

“The majority of people in life are unhappy. With such a talent, I should have become more content.

Too bad I can't control my brain.

He tortured me all the time and ordered me to think about endless questions. This process was really painful for me. "

"Sometimes I even doubt that I am not who I am anymore."

Matthew frowned:

"Why do you say that?"

Hibbert recalled:

"Before I was 12 years old, I was a carefree and smart kid. I was happy every day."

"Of course I would also think at that time. I would think about the birds in the sky, the shells on the seashore, and why adults want to make love, but I would never be as confused as I am now."

“I enjoyed the thinking process at that time.”

"But after the magic entrance exam when I was 12 years old, my magical talent was completely awakened. Since then, my brain seems to have been occupied by others. Sometimes I am confused and sometimes extremely sober."

“Sometimes I can’t help but wonder, is there some powerful consciousness awakening in me?

For example, the fallen goddess of magic?

Did she give me a powerful magical talent and secretly hide it in my body, ready to replace it at any time?

The more I think about it, the more I think this possibility is quite reasonable.

do you know?

Ever since I awakened my powerful magical talent, everything I do has been extremely easy.

Even when I encounter a problem, I just have to stand still in front of it and it will automatically solve itself.

Can you feel this painful feeling? "

Matthew rubbed his temples:

"Sorry, I only feel a little pain when I can't learn the spell."

"So as to whether there is a powerful being hidden in you, have you consulted a more powerful mage?"

Hibbert nodded:

"I have asked many legendary mages."

"Mr. Ekmund believed that too much meaningless thinking made me lose the ability to distinguish illusions from reality. He asked me to practice more meditation and empty my mind."

"Ms. Isabel told me that the magic goddess is far less talented than me, so there is no need to worry about this."

"Mr. Roderick said to me that he saw my trajectory in the long river of destiny. I will go very far and leave my own mark on this time and space, so there is definitely nothing strong about me. consciousness."

"And recently I visited Mr. Chen to get his opinion."

Matthew asked curiously:

"What did Chen say?"

Hibbert said seriously:

"He told me to eat shit."

Matthew almost laughed.

However, Hibbert's next sentence made his scalp tingle even more:

"However, this does not solve the problem. All I can say is that shit is not as unpleasant as imagined."

Matthew's breath hitched.

I couldn't help but hold my head with my hands.

This is too explosive...

He was in a very complicated mood right now. He was envious of Hibbert's astonishing magical talent, but also worried about the other's mind-numbing mental state.

Seeing that Hibbert seems to have something to say about eating shit.

Matthew quickly changed the conversation:

"So you've been in Watcher's Heights for a week?"

"Any findings?"

Hibbert shook his head decisively:

"No."

Matthew wondered:

"So what have you been doing for the past week?"

Hibbert said calmly:

"I stay in the square where you just found me. Sometimes I sit on the ground, sometimes I sit on a chair, and more often than not I lie on the chair and look at the sky."

Matthew was speechless.

really.

The Silver Council's concerns are not without reason.

This guy may be a genius, but expecting him to solve the problems in Watcher's Heights is a fool's errand.

"Okay, then you continue to stay here and don't move around."

"I'm going to collect some information nearby."

Matthew coughed and prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, Hibbert grabbed him:

"There's no need to go, just wait until he solves the problem by himself."

Matthew was surprised and said:

"If you don't take action, how will the problem be solved by itself?"

Hibbert explained:

"Didn't I tell you that any problem I encounter will be solved automatically. I just need to stay where I am and think."

"Don't think this desert is desolate, but the sand is actually very soft and comfortable to lie on. Why don't you lie down with me for a while."

"Maybe the problem will be solved by just lying down."

Matthew laughed dryly:

"Sorry, but I have my own way of solving things."

Hibbert also let go of his hand:

"All right."

"Then I'll go with you."

However, he just finished speaking.

A red light flashed, a portal appeared in the sky over the desert, and a fiery female mage walked out of the door.

She was wearing a short robe that highlighted the lines, and her big white legs were so dang that it hurt your eyes.

She has a beautiful face, a cool temperament, and a strong magical aura. She is obviously a high-level mage.

"I found the Blight King's hiding place, Hibbert!"

The female mage’s voice was very clear:

"The Blight Order's base camp is indeed established deep in the Helen Mountains. It's hard to imagine how they managed to cross half of the Helen Mountains and the vast Yunshang Plateau to drop a large number of cultists into the Watcher Highlands. I guess there must be some among them. Senior mages, and long-distance teleportation springboards established in many places on the Yunshang Plateau, otherwise the siege that night would not have been possible."

Having said this.

She turned to look at Matthew, her face was slightly cold, and her chin was raised high:

"Who is this man?"

Hibbert's explanation:

"Martin."

"A registered mage sent by the Silver Council."

The female mage hesitated and said:

"Martin? But wasn't Matthew written on the Silver Council's notification letter?"

Matthew wept secretly in his heart.

Although this female mage seems difficult to get along with, she should be a normal person.

So he took the initiative and said:

"I am Matthew, from Rolling Stone Town. The Silver Council commissioned me to come to Watcher's Heights to investigate the situation here."

The female mage nodded slightly and introduced herself with a proud expression:

"Feliwen, Palace Mage, second-class Scroll Mage of the Wisdom Palace."

She sounded very proud.

But Matthew could only cater to her superficially.

After all, he was born in Yeluzi, so he didn't really understand what these titles meant.

Feliwen said:

"I have completed the preliminary investigation. As I just said, the source of the unrest in Watcher Heights is the guy named the Blight King. As long as we kill him, the matter will be solved."

Matthew asked cautiously:

"What's the situation like with the druids?"

Feliwen looked a little impatient, but still managed to answer:

"Those savages took the initiative to shrink their troops and put most of the guardians around the underground temple. This is where the ancient god of nature fell and where the earth's treasure house is located."

"The Druid Order is so nervous that I don't even bother to pay attention to them. They obviously have more manpower than us, but they only know how to ask for help from us but don't know how to take the initiative. It is said that the only little druid who volunteered to go out was arrested. ”

"If you ask me, these savages have no ability to protect this land. The Alliance should not give up Watcher Heights to them."

Feliwen's tone was very strong.

At first glance, she looks like the kind of woman who has always been in a high position and bosses others around.

From the first moment she appears.

He never looked at Matthew seriously.

Only when facing Hibbert, her attitude would change 180 degrees. Not only her eyes would become gentle, but her tone would also be very soothing, as if she was afraid that speaking too fast would cause Hibbert to misunderstand.

Her love for Hibbert was clear.

"The Silver Council said that the Far North Floating City only sent one palace mage to investigate the matter, and that was Hibbert."

"In that case, Feliwen came here on her own initiative. Maybe she was worried that Hibbert couldn't complete it alone, so she planned to do the whole process for her?"

"If that's the case, I can get 1 million just lying around, and it's nothing to endure her bad temper."

Matthew looked at Hibbert with increasingly subtle eyes.

No wonder this guy says the problem will fix itself.

Feelings are like licking a dog's saddle before a horse is behind it!

"Anyway, Matthew, you go with me to kill the King of Blight, and this matter will be solved."

Fei Liwen said firmly.

Matthew asked:

"What about Hibbert?"

Fei Liwen replied strongly:

"It's good for him to rest here. If he is too noble to fight and kill, the two of us can do this well."

"Don't worry, I don't need you to take action. I can do it myself. You just need to cooperate with me when the time is right."

After hearing this, Matthew didn't resist too much.

He spoke:

"It's okay to kill the King of Blight, but before that I plan to go to the Druid Order to have a look."

He was mainly concerned about Eli and Laila's situation.

However, Fei Liwen frowned:

"You don't believe my findings?"

Matthew was already a little disgusted at this time:

"I need to look into something else."

Fei Liwen said displeased:

"Is your matter more important than the alliance's mission?"

"Do we have to do it now?"

"If the alliance's mission is delayed because of your affairs, who will bear the final responsibility?"

Matthew was amused:

"Is there something wrong with your logic?"

"When I first arrived, I was held accountable just because I had to conduct on-site investigations."

"Then Mr. Hibbert has been lying here for a week. Has he delayed the alliance's mission?"

Fei Liwen said angrily:

"You are not allowed to say that about Hibbert!"

"Besides, with his talent, everything he does should be done. Who in the league dares to hold him accountable?"

The other party said so.

Matthew was no longer in the mood to argue with her:

"Farewell."

He strode toward the exit of the demiplane.

"I will complain to the Silver Council!"

Feliwen said coldly.

Matthew smiled and ignored her.

But at this time.

He looked at the figure following him in surprise.

at this time.

Fei Liwen couldn't help but said in surprise:

"Hibbert!"

"Why are you following him?"

Matthew also looked at Hibbert in confusion:

"Yeah, why are you following me?"

Hibbert said oh.

He explained to Feliwen:

"The instructions from the Floating City and the Parliament are that we hope that we cooperate with each other and set up an investigation team. If Martin is unwilling to cooperate with us, then we can cooperate with Martin."

Fei Liwen was very angry:

"Why? He is just a registered mage!"

Hibbert thought for a moment:

"Martin just did me a big favor."

Feliwen's chest heaved violently, and she gritted her teeth and said:

"But I'm your girlfriend!"

"I'm the one doing you a big favor!"

"I am the one who gives you everything without reservation!"

Unexpectedly, Hibbert said seriously:

"No, you are just coveting my body and mind."

Feliwen's cheeks instantly turned red.

She covered her face with her hands and screamed hysterically.

Matthew was impressed.

However, Hibbert grabbed his hand and left the demiplane.

By this time, the crowd in the square outside had dissipated.

The two left quickly.

Matthew walked a few steps, looked back, and found that Feliwen was following him from a distance, but those eyes looked at him as if they wanted to eat him alive.

Matthew coughed lightly:

"Isn't that bad?"

"Won't your girlfriend be angry?"

Hibbert shook his head and said:

"She's not my girlfriend."

Matthew looked surprised:

"Really? But I see you are acting intimately."

Hibbert paused:

"I have nothing to do with that woman."

"There is a child between us though."

This isn't the first time Matthew's jaw has dropped.

He couldn't help but look back at Feliwen, who was very resentful.

What is the relationship between these two people?

But Hibbert wouldn't say.

He didn't have the nerve to continue asking for more information.

The two of them walked westward along the intersection.

Soon we arrived at the place where the druids gathered——

Holy oak woodland.

The buildings and trees here have the feel of a Druid camp.

Rows of treehouses rising from the ground.

A sea of ​​flowers blooming towards the sun.

Boundless green lawn.

There is also a ceremonial ground that contains a lot of growth power.

Just walked into this area.

Matthew could feel a warm feeling.

That is the realm called nature that welcomes his arrival.

Normally this must be a place with extremely beautiful scenery.

But now.

Many treehouses have burned down.

Much grass was trampled.

The streets were littered with rubbish and the remains of Molotov cocktails.

If there are still some people in the center of Cross City.

The streets here are almost empty.

Most of the remaining houses have locked doors and windows.

Matthew could feel a pair of wary eyes peeking from behind the window.

Ahead is the Oak Wall.

Beyond the Oak Wall you will reach the headquarters of the Earth Order.

This wall of oak trees is extremely famous in the South.

It is a guardian ceremony composed of hundreds of oak trees over 500 years old closely arranged together.

This is a place of pilgrimage in the hearts of most druids in the South.

But when Matthew got closer, he discovered it.

At this time, there are many minions of the Wither Order who are carrying flammable materials in an attempt to burn this area to the ground!

The members of these cults were just walking on the street with such swagger.

No one dared to stop them.

The druid didn't even see a single one.

"The minions of these cultists are growing like weeds. I have killed hundreds of people in the past few days, but they seem to be resurrected. Well, I have killed the one just now three times, but today I still don't know where to start from. It came out of nowhere."

Feliwen's voice sounded faintly in Matthew's ears:

"So I advise you not to think about killing them all. These people have evil magic in their bodies and there is no way to completely eliminate them through normal means."

No need for Fei Liwen to remind you.

Matthew can also feel the strange power of these cultists.

This power carries a powerful twist.

This makes the cultists look like zombies who only know how to destroy.

At this time, some cultists noticed the approach of Matthew and others.

They quickly gathered around.

"Let's go first."

Feliwen urged impatiently.

Matthew nodded slightly.

But at this time.

Lines of eye-catching text suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

"Tip: You have obtained a new mission "Self-Destruction"!

Self-destruction: The Blighters believe that all things will eventually decay and the world will wither. In this case, let them be the first to bear the feeling of withering life!
