The necromancer just wants to plant trees

Matthew eventually took Peggy's advice.

He fished poisonous mushrooms out of the lake, ground them into powder and then applied them to the mushrooms.

He then built a hidden ritual site nearby to enhance the activity of the toxin.

After doing all this, he left the vicinity of Crescent Mountain.

Half a day later.

Matthew followed the same pattern and found several water sources near the City of Night Angel.

The city replenishes its freshwater resources primarily by harvesting groundwater.

So Matthew's actions became even simpler.

With the blessing of earth magic.

He completed the poisoning job easily.

After doing all this, he returned to Tyrannosaurus Town happily.

Be prepared to wait for things to ferment.

However, to Matthew's surprise, things did not go as he imagined.

Two days later.

Crescent Mountain.

In a magnificent domed palace.

The owner of this place, Hodges, the seventh son of the evil spirit lord Omadouqi, is strolling in a garden with his beloved concubine.

Hodges has ruled Crescent Hill for over a hundred years.

In his hands.

Crescent Mountain is booming, with the largest number of astral humans in the sampan plane gathered here.

However, these humans in the astral plane are different from the natives of the sampan plane.

They come from deeper within the astral realm.

When the evil spirits attacked the sampan plane, in order to obtain more accurate information, they recruited a group of humans from the depths of the star realm and blended into the sampan plane.

This group of humans provides convenient guidance and detailed information for the actions of evil spirits.

Therefore, in the process of carving up the sampan plane by multiple forces.

The situation in Crescent Mountain is the fastest to stabilize.

Hodges successfully captured the town without spending much effort, became the lord of the place, and has ruled it to this day.

nowadays.

The original batch of astral humans who were attached to evil spirits have become the race with the largest population in Crescent Mountain. The second largest are the wild boars, the third largest are the kobolds, and then there are other chaotic races.

And as the true rulers are evil spirits.

Due to racial characteristics, the number of evil spirits is always very rare.

On the one hand, this is because the conditions for the birth of evil spirits are very harsh.

On the other hand, it is because of the particularity of competition within the evil spirit society——

Every evil spirit needs a large number of donors to survive.

Since birth, they must always absorb a special energy called psionic energy.

If it cannot be supplemented in time.

The evil spirit's strength may at least be reduced, or at worst, it may die suddenly on the spot.

Therefore, the feelings and relationships between evil spirits are quite weak. Except for necessary spouses and children, every powerful evil spirit will exclude other evil spirits from its territory.

This is to facilitate the exclusive use of the psionic energy in the territory.

But on the other hand.

The evil spirits are extremely united when dealing with the outside world. Each evil spirit lord has a large number of semi-evil spirits under his command. These semi-evil spirits often do not need to absorb psionic energy to survive, and they are like fanatical believers in the evil spirit lord. of loyalty.

It is with the support of that group of semi-evil spirits who are the backbone.

Only then could the evil spirit lord rest easy.

in the garden.

A gentle and sweet voice slowly sounded, and the speaker was Gulishati, the beloved concubine of the evil spirit lord Hodges:

"The Necromancer did not continue to attack us or the City of Night Angel. Instead, he built a cemetery in Tyrannosaurus Town."

"But the canopy of death has not dissipated. I guess he plans to fight a protracted war."

Hodges sneered:

"protracted war?"

"Is he worthy?"

"I have applied to my father to mobilize the evil spirit army. Soon, I will lead the evil spirit warriors across the star world to tear his death curtain into pieces!"

"But having said that, the Cossacks really disappeared from the world like this? It's really incredible..."

Gulishati smiled and said lightly:

"No, he didn't disappear."

"Instead, he became an accomplice of the Necromancer."

"Someone has seen the Cossack in the canopy of death. He looks bigger than before, but his eyes are obviously different."

Hodges was silent for a moment:

"I know you want to remind me how scary my opponent is, so that I don't underestimate the enemy."

"But the wording makes people uncomfortable."

Gulishati still said with a smile:

"I believe that future evil spirit masters can accept such a reminder."

"You have enough mind and courage, don't you?"

Hodges' expression softened:

"Um."

Gulishati gently took Hodges' arm, and the two continued walking in the garden.

Although Hodges accepted Gulishati's statement, he still seemed not very interested.

However, this beloved concubine has been able to accompany Hodges for hundreds of years, so she naturally knows how to coax the evil spirit lord.

She told two interesting stories and then used a few words to make Hodges smile.

Hodges actually knew it too.

His qualifications are only average among the descendants of the evil spirit lord Oma Duoqi.

He is where he is today, all thanks to Gulishati's mind.

Since the two sides met and got to know each other, he has rarely seen Gulishati make any mistakes in judgment.

Therefore, in most cases, he can accept Gulishati's opinion, as long as he can get along with it in terms of face.

After adjusting your mentality.

Hodges brought the topic back on track:

"What do you say in the Night Angel City?"

Gulishati replied without hesitation:

"Lord Underwood wrote a letter saying that many people died there, most of them because of some kind of disease. It was a very serious disease. They would die suddenly on the spot almost not long after the attack. Some of them died suddenly on the spot. Their corpses will even transform into zombies that night, and then attack other people.”

"This incident caused severe panic in the City of Night Angel. Many people are discussing when the Necromancer will attack there."

"Underwood personally investigated and found that the entire underground water system in the City of Night Angel was contaminated..."

Hodges had a look of anger on his face:

"Despicable Necromancer!"

"This is almost exactly the same as what happened to Crescent Mountain these past few days!"

"We also lost a lot of people!"

Gulishati nodded:

"Yes."

"But it's not all bad news."

Hodgson suddenly became interested:

"oh?"

"How to say?"

Gulishati smiled gently:

"Lord Underwood mentioned in the letter that the City of Night Angel has the ability to solve this epidemic."

"The problem of water pollution is not difficult to solve. What's more, they have successfully found the source of the pollution. They only need to purify it and then use legendary magic to clean up the polluted water system."

"That's exactly how we deal with it."

"Some people have died in Crescent Mountain in the past few days, but most of them are second-class citizens and third-class citizens, that is, astral humans and wild boar people."

"They also had some corpse transformations, but the situation was under control."

"Compared to the City of Night Angel, our situation in New Moon is much better. After all, evil spirits and semi-evil spirits, as first-class citizens, are immune to corpse poison."

Hodges had a proud smile on his face:

"It seems that despicable necromancer knows nothing about evil spirits."

"He actually tried to poison us."

"That's ridiculous!"

Gulishati laughed softly:

"Not only that, I also found that although he acted boldly, he was naive in some aspects."

"For example, when it comes to poisoning, he is very honest."

"He was a bit mean, but far from sophisticated."

"I even suspect that this is his first time poisoning someone."

Hodges said curiously:

"Why do you say that?"

Gulishati explained:

"The toxin he chose is too strong and can easily arouse others' alertness, so it is not conducive to subsequent spread."

"If you switch to experienced plague messengers, when they spread the plague, especially in the early stage, they will often use toxins or diseases that are mild, concealed and highly transmissible."

"Until the target group is almost fully infected, they will use ritual sites to completely detonate the toxins or diseases in the target's body, thereby creating a carnival of disease and plague."

"But he is different. His method can only create short-term panic and cannot achieve the desired effect."

"So in the realm of despicableness, he appears to be incompetent and even clumsy."

Hodges nodded thoughtfully:

"You have a point."

"This boy does seem a bit immature. After all, I heard he is not yet thirty years old."

"Have you thought of a way to deal with him?"

Gulishati smiled and said nothing.

Immediately, she stuck out a forked tongue and licked her lips very seductively.

Hodges thought for a moment:

"You want him?"

Gulishati said excitedly:

"If I help you get her, I hope he can become my slave, and I plan to train him myself."

Hodges frowned slightly.

Gulishati immediately stuck to him, her soft and invisible body wrapped around Hodges's body like a snake:

"Imagine having a talented mage from the Alliance lick our feet while we have sex - wouldn't that make you more excited?"

Hodges' breathing suddenly quickened.

But he can still maintain basic sanity:

"How are you going to take him down?"

"He is in the undead natural disaster now!"

Gulishati said with a smile:

"Let's negotiate with him!"

"We can pretend that there are heavy casualties in the city, and many people have been killed by poison, or we are simply afraid of the power of the undead natural disaster and want to negotiate with him."

"We can write to him and tell him that our enmity with him is not deep. In comparison, the original conflict between us and Lance is bigger."

"We can promise to help him defeat Lance. I believe he will be moved by this - otherwise there is no need for him to spread the word and say that he wants to give innocent people a way out of the sampan plane. This move just shows that he knows the undead very well. Natural disasters cannot flatten Xingyue Mountain or the City of Night Angel, he needs help from others."

"And the location of the negotiation is set near the lake where he poisoned the place. He has been to that place and is at least more familiar with it than other places, so it is relatively easy for him to become more paralyzed."

"When negotiating, the two of us can just go directly to him."

"To show our sincerity, we can even capture a few spies planted by the Natural Disaster Religion in Crescent Mountain and give them to him."

"As long as we are sure that his body has really left the Death Canopy, we can take action! The other party is just a necromancer who has not yet become a legend. If you and I join forces as legends, can't we still defeat him?"

Gulishati looked confident.

On the contrary, Hodges hesitated:

"But he killed the Cossacks."

"And you just reminded me not to underestimate the enemy."

Gulishati smiled and said:

"First, the Cossack died under the Death Sky. The Necromancer is invincible inside, so we have to make sure that his body leaves the Death Sky."

"Second, we really cannot underestimate the enemy, so you must call on your father's strength for this operation."

Hear the last sentence.

Hodgson suddenly looked hesitant:

"You have to know, this is no joke..."

Gulishati looked at him solemnly:

"The future evil spirit lord should have the will to be decisive."

"Matthew personally killed his father's warlock - that guy named Finn is an important chess piece of his father in the south of Irondor. Although he didn't say anything, as long as you seize this opportunity, kill even... By capturing Matthew alive, you can escape from your ordinary status quo and become a celebrity in your father's eyes."

"Don't you have any determination at all?"

Hodges' face turned slightly red.

Immediately he gritted his teeth:

"Okay, I'll write a letter right now!"

Unexpectedly, Gulishati said with a smile:

"No."

"I have already written the negotiation letter for you and sent someone to deliver it a long time ago."

"I believe that my evil spirit master will make such a choice."

Hodgson was a little unhappy for a moment.

Gulishati laughed:

"You don't blame me for taking matters into your own hands, do you?"

She lowered her head and kissed Hodges' chest.

The next second.

Two more heads grew out of Gulishati's neck.

The three heads all the way down, each performing its own duties.

…

Tyrannosaurus Town.

Matthew let go of the Death Thunderbird in his hand, his expression slightly complicated.

He had just extracted the intelligence from the Thunderbirds over the past two days, and the results were not satisfactory either in Crescent Mountain or the City of Night Angel.

This was the first minor setback Matthew encountered in the sampan plane.

Although the poison did kill some people and caused local panic, it was still far from the effect Matthew wanted.

He began to reflect on his problems and wrote them on a note as a reminder:

"There are still fewer similar bad things done. They are not skilled enough and have almost no extra thinking. They act purely based on instinct and common sense."

"We must learn a lesson. The harder the poison, the better..."

Peggy came over and looked at the contents of the note, then patted him on the shoulder and comforted him:

"Don't blame yourself too much."

"Although you are a necromancer and I am a tauren skeleton, our natures are still too kind."

"We don't have the talent for crime. It's normal for us to do bad things and get overturned."

Matthew shook his head.

Lack of talent is not a reason for not doing well.

If you can think more carefully before taking action, you can at least take more initiative in the current situation.

"Why don't you go find Dudley, or the kobold mushroom warlock?"

Paige suggested.

Matthew still shook his head.

Whether it is Dudley or the kobold Will, they may have conducted in-depth research on toxins, but at the practical level, their experience is similar to Matthew.

Counting on them to help him poison and kill people.

I'm afraid it's also a matter of professional mismatch.

"Then what are you going to do next?"

"How about you just listen to me and let's just pick one and fight?"

Paige looked like she didn't want to think.

Matthew put away the note and regained his fighting spirit:

"Wherever you fall, you have to get up!"

"I'm going to find a friend and ask him about the secret of poisoning."

Peggy looked Matthew up and down:

"Do you know any friends who know how to poison?"

Matthew thought for a while and said:

"He doesn't necessarily know how to poison."

"But there's a good chance he can help."

Said.

He told Mulan in Sapphire to take charge of the situation in Tyrannosaurus Town for him.

Then Matthew found a deserted corner and activated his new ability from the realm of life——

"Wild Form: Holy Deer"!

in a blink.

Matthew turned into a lively sika deer.

He tapped his forelegs lightly on the ground.

In a moment.

A colorful oval roulette wheel appeared in front of the sika deer!

There are various areas on the roulette wheel.

Whenever Matthew's mental power is focused on an area, the name of the corresponding area will flood into his mind:

abyss;

purgatory;

plane of evil spirits;

Twin Paradise;

infinite sea of ​​stars;

Tianlun Palace;

This is "Cosmic Roulette"!

The various colored areas in the wheel include all the planes near the Material Plane!

The Cosmic Roulette Wheel is not just a flat surface.

In fact, it is a three-dimensional model with many layers superimposed.

Matthew can control a green light point through mental power and let it move on the roulette wheel, thereby achieving the effect of interdimensional travel.

The Holy Deer is a legendary creature that naturally has the ability to travel through planes.

He can travel freely between worlds.

But this action requires the consumption of a type of energy called "movement points."

Since birth, the Holy Deer will receive a batch of movement points every 10 years. Unless the points are exhausted, he can move across planes.

Matthew looked at it.

My own movement points are 100.

And from the current sampan plane to the destination you want to travel to, you only need to spend 1 movement point!

This means that there are almost no barriers to movement between the sampan plane and its destination.

And if you want to arch into the main material world, you have to spend at least 10 movement points - as for whether you can succeed, it depends on the face of the permanent barrier!

"For the creatures in the outer plane, permanent barriers are really annoying."

"But for all living beings in the material world, this is the strongest wall."

Matthew sighed in his heart.

Immediately.

He moved the green light spot one space to the side corner.

Hoo ho ho!

A round, colorful light burst out from under his feet.

Just for a moment.

Matthew disappeared on the spot!

After a few seconds.

The holy deer's limbs landed on the ground again. He gently touched the soft ground with his hooves, and a croaking sound came from his ears.

Matthew opened his eyes. Suddenly, his eyes stung, and there was a strong burning sensation at the tip of his nose!

"Warning: You transformed into a holy deer and successfully reached the "Poison World"!

You are encountering the "poisonous" test of the local ritual site..."

"not good!"

Feel the severe pain coming from your limbs and bones and the feeling of your heart beating wildly.

Matthew made a quick decision and instantly transformed into his original human form!

Immediately afterwards.

He threw himself a bubble spell.

Then the realm of life expanded.

Only then could he barely withstand the first round of the Poison World Toxin Field test!

"Fortunately, my toxin resistance is not low..."

Matthew breathed a sigh of relief.

Even though the Holy Deer is a legendary creature and belongs to the life domain, its toxin resistance is not as high as that of a mage like Matthew!

If it were delayed a little longer.

Maybe something really happened!

Even Matthew himself cannot be careless.

He currently does not have the blessing of the spores given by Hussman, so he can only rely on the life domain and his own toxin resistance to endure it.

And in the poison world.

Toxin fields are everywhere.

If you can survive the first round, you may not be able to survive the tenth round.

The feeling of being poisoned is not pleasant.

He must fight quickly!

At the moment, Matthew was walking quickly in the moist jungle of the drug world. The environment here was different from every kind of forest he had encountered before.

On the surface it looks like a tropical rainforest.

But the water vapor here is much more abundant than the rainforest in Ain.

Matthew can only fly in mid-air.

Because there is water below and above, there is even a thick fog hanging in the air.

"If I were flying with wings, I would probably weigh more than ten kilograms now..."

Matthew sat on the magic carpet and thought.

The environment in the Poison Realm made him very uneasy. The jungle was not only wet but also wet. He couldn't even see a living creature!

If not for the croaking sound.

He may even feel that he has arrived in a jungle of death!

But the trip went much smoother than Matthew expected.

He followed the sound of frogs and flew over.

It didn't take long.

He then saw a group of giant frogs lying on a raised island, gesturing to each other.

There are coconut trees on the island that reach into the sky.

The coconuts here are so green that it makes people nervous.

The fibers on its surface are covered with green liquid.

Matthew didn't dare to get close at all.

I don’t know if it’s for psychological reasons.

By now he was starting to feel dizzy and have abdominal pain.

Matthew controlled the magic carpet and swooped down.

He shouted to the group of giant frogs from a distance:

"I'm Solinka's friend."

"I've taken the liberty to come to visit you, please give me a message."

Most giant frogs, however, remained unmoved.

Only a giant frog with strong muscles glanced at Matthew:

"Every mage who mistakenly enters the poison world claims to be Solinka's friend. How should we believe you?"

Matthew smiled and shook his head:

"You don't have to believe me."

"Just pass on a message for me."

Said.

He took out a few things from his bag and waved them in front of the giant frog:

"What kind of reward do you want?"

What Matthew took out is as follows——

a pail of milk;

two roast chickens;

a basin of clean water;

a handful of gold coins;

A bottle of sword oil.

The giant frog looked at it from a distance and suddenly screamed:

"Give me that bottle of oil!"

Matthew threw it through the air.

The giant frog quickly popped out its tongue and swallowed the sword oil into its belly.

The next second.

As soon as he rolled his eyes, he suddenly jumped into the air and jumped towards the depths of the rain forest!

"Follow me, mage, this bottle of oil you have tastes really good!"

"Can you tell me what this was originally used for?"

The giant frog jumps extremely fast.

Matthew barely kept up with the magic carpet.

to the other party’s questions.

Matthew just laughed and said nothing.

ten minutes later.

The giant frog led Matthew to a banyan forest submerged in water.

He pointed at the woods with one hand and said:

"Solinka is here."

"I won't go in. It's too poisonous. It's no place for a frog to stay."

"My name is Jimmy. Next time you come to the drug world, you can bring a few more bottles of the oil just now, and I can exchange it with you for other things."

With that he jumped away.

As soon as Matthew approached the banyan forest, an old face suddenly appeared on the edge of the tree:

"Look, look, who's here? It's the messenger of nature, the preference of death, the soul of nature's beloved tree-planting mage. Haha, Matthew, I'm glad you still remember me, this old man."

"Hello, Mr. Solinka."

Matthew clasped his chest with one hand, performed a humble mage salute, and then got straight to the point:

"I came here to ask you for advice on how to spread poison."

Then he briefly talked about the problems he encountered in the sampan plane.

"You found the right person when you came to me!"

Solinka, the giant tree in the poison world, said with a smile:

"In my opinion, being too toxic is not the problem."

"Given enough vectors, more severe toxicity would have helped to resolve the problem more cleanly."

"I can give you four sources of poison. They are the best carriers of poison, namely: Poison World Yellow Frog, Infernal Viper, Quils Wasp and Weeping Scorpion."

While talking.

The bark of the tree suddenly cracked, and four balls of light flew out from inside, landing in front of Matthew one by one.

Matthew took a closer look.

Each ball of light contains at least 1,000 of the poisons Solinka mentioned.

Matthew did not rush to pick him up, but asked respectfully:

"Then how can I thank you?"

Solinka replied immediately:

"You don't have to thank me for anything. I don't have many friends in the Poison World. I'm just happy that you can come and see me."

"Of course, we do have some special demands. As an envoy of nature, you have the right to know these-"

"The Poison Realm was supposed to be part of the Sea of ​​Trees, but an accident many years ago caused us to break away from the inner plane and drift to the outer plane, becoming rootless duckweeds."

"My only wish in this life is to see the Poison World return to the embrace of the Sea of ​​Trees."

"I know this is difficult to achieve, but I also know that you are different. From the first time I met you, I knew that you would stand out soon. It turned out to be just as I suspected..."

"I'm glad that I didn't attack you when I was in Zeshui City. For this reason, I even violated the contract with the summoner. Haha, of course, I paid a small price, but now it seems that it is worth it..."

Solinka kept talking.

Matthew felt as if a lonely old man had met a young man who happened to visit him.

This feeling is so real.

Matthew couldn't help but sigh secretly.

However, the environment in the poison world was indeed unacceptable. He planned to leave after asking about the techniques for using the four poison sources.

But at this time.

A cold voice came from deep in the woods:

"You talk too much, Solinka."

Solinka smiled nonchalantly and said:

"I'm sorry, Kesha, but it's been a while since I've had a visitor."

"Did we disturb you?"

"How about we change places?"

The female voice named Kesha said disapprovingly:

"The drug world is so big, where can you go?"

After speaking she was silent for a while.

Then he suddenly said:

"Hey, that little guy named Matthew, do you want to come sit here with me?"

"My place is not far from the drug world, and the environment is much better than there."

"Besides, I have something else I want to ask you."

Matthew looked at Solinka in surprise.

The latter said softly:

"Don't be nervous, Kesha is not a bad person."

"She is the Daughter of Plague. The Plague Castle where she lives is very close to the Poison Realm and is also a separate outer plane."

"Oh, I forgot to tell you that she is the wife of the God of Death and has been a widow for many years now..."

Death's wife?

Matthew was still hesitant.

Kesha’s voice has already been heard:

"Since you are the messenger of nature, I will give you four little cuties."

"Mosquitoes, rats, cockroaches and flies respectively."

"You take these four little cuties and the four poison sources Solinka gave you, and add enough negative energy to synthesize the ball of death plague. You should know what the ball of death plague is, right?"

"Come here, let me see...that stone slab on your body."

The legendary semi-artifact of the realm of the dead——

"Plague Ball"?

Matthew couldn't help but raise his head.

…
