The necromancer just wants to plant trees

…

Edge of oak forest.

Obest, who had been prepared for a long time, stood side by side with the elders of the Centaur tribe.

They folded their arms and looked pious.

behind them.

They are the druids from the Earth Society. These young Gruy's attainments in magic are not enough to stand alone.

But it is more than enough to serve as an auxiliary for large-scale cluster spells.

For a while.

The chants of centaurs and druids resounded throughout the oak forest.

It attracted many anxious animals to come and watch.

Half a minute later.

A dazzling ray of sunlight penetrated the dark clouds above the cemetery.

Immediately afterwards.

More sunlight falls from above.

Part of the acid rain evaporates quickly and turns into water vapor rushing up!

"Ritual Spell: Clear Skies"!

Matthew knows.

The leader of this spell is actually an elder of the Centaur tribe. As a natural spell caster, this elder has considerable attainments in the field of meteorology.

Obest and other druids were only responsible for cooperating with him to enhance the effect of the spell.

In the blink of an eye.

The originally dark sky suddenly became clear.

Matthew breathed a sigh of relief.

"Without acid rain, it would be... huh?"

However, the strong sunshine did not last long.

Ten seconds later.

Matthew looked up in surprise again. He touched the raindrops on his face, and unexpectedly found that dark clouds had gathered again in the originally clear sky.

The clouds are so thick.

It’s much more exaggerated than when the acid rain just came!

The dark clouds were slowly pressing down.

Like a small mountain, it gives people a sense of depression and suffocation.

And acid rain fell first.

The heavy raindrops slapped on the mountain of the cemetery and on the ground, silently causing a lot of corrosion!

"wrong!"

"There is no magic fluctuation. The position of the dark cloud is actually very high. It is so high that it does not match the normal climate phenomenon at all!"

Matthew noticed something unusual.

Then he blessed himself with a far-sighted technique, and then activated balanced perception.

After a few seconds.

He finally discovered the source of the acid rain!

…

"Hint: You discovered the Lord of Decay (LV19/Lord) and his descendants!"

…

"The King of Decay..."

Matthew's expression was slightly solemn, and his eyes became extremely deep.

In the high sky where dark clouds are floating.

There is actually a large group of strange birds hidden inside!

The leader of the strange bird is huge and has a dry surface, except for a huge sac on its lower jaw.

now.

The capsule is constantly agitating, and with every agitation, a large amount of liquid falls!

All the strange birds are following the Lord of Decay doing the same action.

This creates the acid rain Matthew is facing now!

at the same time.

Matthew also observed that the amount of liquid sprayed by these strange birds did not actually fall on his head as much.

Instead, those liquids will actively condense nearby moisture during their descent, thereby creating acid rain on an even more alarming scale!

This is not a spell.

It's a magic-like ability!

The ritual spells of the centaur elders are not ineffective against this acid rain.

It's just that their spell coverage is too small.

As long as the acid rain falling from the sky is guided from another area and eventually floats towards the cemetery, the enemy's purpose can also be achieved!

"There are some abyss mages on the backs of those strange birds. The direction of the acid rain should be guided by these mages..."

Matthew's eyes narrowed.

There was a flash of murderous intent in his eyes, but it was quickly canceled.

Can't handle it.

These strange birds are hiding too high and too far away!

They should also be blessed with invisibility spells, and they will only appear when acid rain is sprayed.

besides.

Matthew also discovered two large teleportation gates standing in the sky at super high altitudes.

Because the distance was too far and there was too much noisy information on the battlefield, the magical fluctuations of the portal were ignored by him.

The only person in Rolling Stone City who can deal with these strange birds is Matthew himself.

But due to the existence of the high-altitude portal, the opponent is obviously ready to retreat at any time.

Once Matthew goes up.

The opponent can escape from it.

Maybe they even set up an aerial trap above.

in this case.

The ground battlefield may suffer disaster!

"The demon army still has something..."

Matthew's nerves became tense.

He found that due to the continuous success before, his mentality became a little drifting.

The actions of the King of Decay and the Abyss Mage were mostly carried out during the fight between Xiao Fei and the Gemini Cavalry Demon.

This is a trick to hide the truth.

The enemy general was obviously very aware of the impact of this acid rain on the battlefield situation.

From this point of view.

In the first round, the opponent was slightly better!

The other party can make such careful arrangements, so it shows that he is by no means an ordinary person.

"It should be the legendary abyss mage Ocedro."

Matthew was deeply impressed by the black-robed mage.

In this battle, the demon lord Ace only deployed a small part of the Cerebellum, and the highest commander of the demon army was most likely the leader of the Abyss Mage Group.

The opponent chooses to hide behind those demons with hideous faces that attract attention, which shows that he is an old Yinbi who doesn't like to be in the limelight.

I must be more cautious about every abnormal signal on the battlefield!

At this moment.

The strange birds seemed to realize that Matthew had discovered them.

One of the strange birds actually lowered its flight altitude on its own initiative. He even flew through the clear and sunny sky created by the centaur elders. This move aroused discussion among the druids, but also aroused their own hatred.

The strange bird hovered overhead for a while in the cemetery.

Then he started spitting again.

Matthew calmly threw a negative energy shield over and then ignored him.

He knew very well that this strange bird was here to seduce him.

Once he chases him upwards into the sky, he may fall into Osedro's conspiracy!

He had already lost half his chips in the first round.

Next, you must not let the other party lead you by the nose.

You must pull the opponent into your own rhythm in order to accumulate more chips for victory!

“The impact of acid rain on cemeteries must be weakened!”

Matthew knew it.

If we can defend Rolling Stone City, our best chance of winning lies in this suspended cemetery.

Once the cemetery is captured.

Without the cover of the undead army, it would be difficult for the troops in Rolling Stone City to hold on.

This acid rain is obviously directed at the cemetery. Since the source cannot be solved for the time being, its influence must be reduced in many aspects as soon as possible!

Matthew threw a spell mark into the sky, and then turned his attention back to his cemetery.

Have to admit.

This unexpected acid rain dealt a heavy blow to the cemetery.

The first one to bear the brunt is of course Xiaoboi.

Under the violent erosion of acid rain and brain matter, the metal armor on his body had been corroded and riddled with holes.

Now Xiao Fei can only hide in a black mist and tremble, relying on the power of soul fire to repair the armor, completely losing his majestic appearance just now.

Matthew sent him some soul crystals, hoping to speed up his recovery.

This scene also reminded him——

A single high armor is useless. Xiaobo's resistance must be raised in all aspects.

The most urgent thing is acid resistance!

He has insufficient reserves of spell scrolls in this area, which can be regarded as a lesson.

Except for a small boil.

Other undead were also severely affected.

The zombies are a little better. They already have all kinds of rotten flesh hanging on their bodies, and if they are washed away by the acid rain, they will be more rotten.

But the situation of the skeletons is very bad.

What's more serious is the cemetery mountain and the tombstones reserved as strategic materials.

Under the attack of acid rain.

Both had small ulcers.

It’s been a long time.

It will definitely affect the stability of the cemetery ceremony venue!

"Raise the negative energy barrier!"

"Protect the mountain as much as possible and let the undead retreat to the second or fourth floor!"

"Send someone to keep an eye on the negative energy power furnace, keep an eye on it, and don't let up! I suspect there will be enemies coming to sabotage..."

After quickly explaining the white ghost Ali.

Matthew came to the negative energy fountain at the top of the cemetery.

The next second.

Suddenly there was a long whip in his hand——

That is "Usul's Scourge" that has been promoted to a cemetery weapon!

Acid rain is still falling.

The hazy negative energy barrier slowly rose, blocking part of the acid rain, but a lot of acid still seeped down and flowed into the mountains.

Matthew began to swing his whip violently at the negative energy fountain.

Every swing.

A blue-grey halo of light will ripple around his body!

Negative energy control: agitation!

Following Matthew's action, a large amount of negative energy fountains splashed around.

Matthew wrapped the negative energy with a long whip, and then whipped it to other corners of the cemetery!

Where acid rain falls intensively.

Where will these surging negative energies be distributed!

Under the cover of the ultra-high concentration of negative energy spewing out from the negative energy fountain, the harm caused by acid rain was immediately curbed!

Matthew calmly waved the long whip in his hand. Even though his shoulders and wrists soon began to feel sore, he did not slow down the whip swing——

He knows it very well.

Negative energy restrains the corrosive effect to a certain extent.

Theoretically, if the concentration of negative energy in the cemetery is high enough, this acid rain will not pose a threat to the cemetery and the undead inside.

Now Matthew forcibly activates the negative energy fountain, which is overdrafting the potential of the cemetery to weaken the impact of acid rain.

So far the results look very good.

The strange bird in the sky is still screaming, and the acid rain is still falling mercilessly. But under the cover of the rising negative energy, neither the mountains, the tombstones, nor the undead themselves seem so afraid of acid rain!

"Prepare the Heart Stone and other materials."

"If this acid rain lasts for a long time, I will dig more negative energy fountains, and I will not even rule out building a road bridge directly to the negative energy plane here!"

Seeing that the situation was under control, Matthew once again asked the housekeeper Ali to check on the negative energy power furnace.

As long as negative energy can resist the corrosiveness of acid rain.

Then Matthew can accept a long-term stalemate.

At worst, dig a few more negative energy fountains!

Boundary Heart Stone, Negative Energy Crystal Cluster, Necromancer Si Wen...he doesn't lack any of these things!

"Sure enough, war is all about financial resources!"

After a while.

Matthew handed over Ursul's scolding to Ali, and asked him and Renesmee to alternately wield their whips, mainly to guard the top of the mountain. The remaining parts were less threatened and could be prioritized later.

Then he turned his attention to the trench zone to the north of the cemetery.

At this moment, there was no trace of the undead on the pitted ground soaked by acid rain.

Matthew flew up and raised the angle, only to find the skeletons lying in the trench.

There was a hint of approval on his face.

Li Rick's emergency response was quite good, and most of the skeleton swordsmen had offset part of the impact of the acid rain by burying themselves shallowly.

But as the acid rain continued to fall, the acid in the trench began to accumulate, and it was obviously impossible to continue lying down.

Matthew hesitated slightly.

The skeleton axemen led by Li Rick were the main force in defending the trench zone. If they were to withdraw directly to the cemetery now, it would be equivalent to handing over that area to others.

The space that Xiao Fei had created before has now been filled by the second-tier demon army.

If even the trench belt is abandoned, the cemetery mountain will completely lose its buffer.

Even if Matthew can stage a way to deal with the devil's advance team, he can suppress them in the cemetery.

But in front of an army of demons of this magnitude.

This kind of surprise attack will not affect the overall situation at all!

"Perhaps we should consider retreating and guarding the walls of Rolling Stone City..."

While Matthew asked Li Rick to move the skeleton army towards the high point in the southwest, he seriously considered the feasibility of this in his mind——

After all, the cemetery's buildings were not designed for war. They lacked city walls and depth. Apart from being able to fly, they actually had little advantage on the frontal battlefield.

Matthew originally just wanted to build his own mage tower.

I just didn't expect to hit the abyss invasion so soon.

The walls built by the Southern Division Division had more bunkers and depth, and were easier to defend.

"When necessary, you can indeed retreat to the city wall. As long as I am here and as long as the undead army is here, there is still hope of successful defense!"

"Time is on our side..."

Matthew is not a troubled person.

He quickly made a decision in his mind.

It's just that if the demon army wants to give up this land, it will have to pay more.

For now.

This acid rain is an appetizer at best.

Matthew's eyes were fixed on the demon army gathering in front.

He is now curious, after discovering that the acid rain offensive was not successful, what will Osedro do next?

During this period.

The undead in the cemetery are also actively processing Eisner's brain.

These brains are slightly spiritual and highly corrosive.

After landing.

They'll run around for a while, leaving a trail of slime on the ground, then lose their spirit and turn into a disgusting blob of acid.

Compared to acid rain.

Apart from causing a lot of trouble for Xiao Fei at the beginning, Eisner's brain actually did not cause any great harm to the cemetery as a whole.

Even Matthew himself was amazed at this.

soon.

He then realized the hero of all this——

The leader of the ooze monsters!

Even though this guy usually walks slowly, he also has a bad habit of eating skeletons.

It actually came in handy at this critical moment!

When a large amount of Eisner's brains descended, the slow-moving ooze actually began to sweep up the ground in the cemetery at an extremely fast speed!

The ooze itself has the title of scavenger.

And the leader of the ooze monster who defected to Matthew is even more of a super master.

But I saw his huge and soft body rolling over every corner of the cemetery like jelly.

All the squirming brains disappeared in an instant!

The data column is displayed.

The leader of the ooze monster has turned on the gluttonous mode and is enjoying his own dinner!

Throughout the cemetery.

Only Peggy will try to grab something from the ooze leader——

Matthew saw with his own eyes that she grabbed several balls of brains and stuffed them into a clay pot.

Considering the previous record of fried tongues.

It's not difficult to guess what this guy wants to do -

Sometimes Matthew also admires Paige's mentality.

Even in this situation.

She also seemed carefree and happy on her own.

Paige's emotions rubbed off on Matthew to a certain extent.

He relaxes.

Continue to deal with the harm caused by acid rain.

As the agitated negative energy filled the air of the cemetery, things seemed to take a turn for the better——

The corrosion of the cemetery by acid rain and brain plasma was controlled by various means, and good news also came from Li Rick.

Yu Qi led people to drive a magic ship to support them.

With the magic ship's huge body and unique rainwater diversion system, they forcibly created a relatively dry area on the ground.

This way.

The skeleton swordsmen only retreated slightly to the southwest and did not completely abandon their position in the trench zone.

The other side.

Rega also returned to Rolling Stone City, moved two boxes of wind scrolls from the warehouse, and then sent someone to hand them over to Matthew.

The wind spell can blow the acid rain away from the cemetery.

It can also play a role in curbing the harm of acid rain.

In general.

Thanks to the efforts of the Rolling Stone camp.

The impact of this acid rain was minimized.

During this period.

It’s not like the demon camp did nothing.

First, the twin cavalry demons who were resurrected braved the acid rain and came to call for formation again.

Then the strange birds in the sky came closer to the top of the cemetery to provoke.

Demon Lord Eisner's cerebellum ushered in rounds of launches.

It's a pity that his brain fell into the cemetery, like a mud cow falling into the sea——

At first, Matthew was worried about whether the leader of the ooze monsters could eat it.

Later he realized that he had worried too much.

The digestive ability of the leader of the ooze monster is amazingly strong, and the brains don't look very full. After at least three or four rounds of volleys, the skin color of the ooze monster's body did not change at all!

That means he's nowhere near full!

In this situation.

Of course, Matthew was more patient and chose to sit back and watch.

Facing the provocation of the Gemini Cavalry Demon.

Xiao Fei, who was still recovering, originally wanted to go over and teach them a lesson!

But Matthew stopped him.

He slowly sent out Argus, the Shield of Qishan, to deal with the call of the demon brothers.

Matthew gave Argus only one task——

That's defense!

defense.

And survive.

It can be delayed as long as it takes.

Matthew already had a feeling of enlightenment at this moment——

He realized that the momentary victory or defeat could not affect the direction of this battle.

If I still deal with this war with the same thinking that was limited to tactical gains and losses.

Then Rolling Stone City will definitely lose miserably!

He must raise his perspective and look at the overall situation in order to give a better response.

"In the final analysis, it is actually a game between me and the opponent's coach Oceedro. Whoever loses may face disaster!"

"His fault tolerance rate is higher than mine, but time is on my side and I still have a little home field advantage..."

Although I don't know why Osedro is obsessed with the "general confrontation" mode and has to let the top demons come up to call for battle.

But Matthew is actually happy to see the outcome of this situation.

For example, now.

After Argus accepted the order, he fought with the Twin Cavalry Demon in the open space to the north of the trench zone.

Don't look at Argus as a legend.

When facing the Gemini Cavalry Demon, he can actually exert an effect close to that of Xiaobo!

"Clang!"

The cavalry demon thrust his spear across the Argus shield, leaving only a shallow mark on it.

But Argus himself was as steady as a mountain and didn't move at all.

Subsequently.

The surprise attack of another cavalry demon was easily resolved by Argus——

Argus found the opportunity to clamp the opponent's dragon spear under his arm. If the cavalry demon hadn't let go in time, the person captured by Argus would probably have fallen on his back!

This was pretty much what Matthew expected.

He could see it in the battle between Cavalry Demon and Xiao Fei. The two brothers were indeed capable, but they had a fatal flaw——

They can't hit a serious tank!

Although they used corrosive weapons in order to break through Argus's shield.

But Argus's dodge ability is far stronger than Philolius.

Above the open space.

The black warrior wielding a huge shield was one against two, and he dealt with it calmly.

Although it was impossible for him to kill the Twin Cavalry Demon.

But it is also difficult for the enemy to break through his defensive pace.

For a while.

The drama of the master-general duel became much duller.

Acid rain is still falling.

From time to time, there were sounds of weapons clashing in the open space to the north.

Everyone else seemed to have become air.

There is no sense of presence.

"Is your cemetery full of turtles?"

The Gemini Cavalry Demon said nothing.

The Demon Lord of Slaughter, who had rushed to the front to support the battlefield, couldn't help but jumped out.

He also launched a shouting array at the cemetery:

"Here comes someone who can fight, with strong bones. Let me see if the strongest elite among the undead can resist my claws!"

His Common Tongue was very rough.

Matthew had no choice but to use Comprehensive Language to understand what the other party was howling.

After understanding what the other party is saying.

A look of solemnity flashed across Matthew's face.

The Slaughter Demon Lord is no better than the Gemini Cavalry Demon. Although they are both legendary creatures, this guy is obviously much stronger than those two brothers!

The Slaughter Demon was originally a famous killer in the abyss.

Its lord is even more skilled at this.

Who should be sent to deal with it in order to delay it better is a question.

but.

Matthew didn't think about this question for long.

Because it was half a minute after the Demon Lord of Slaughter called the formation.

A fair-skinned and beautiful female warrior wearing a grass ring appeared in the sky above the cemetery.

Seeing this, Matthew quickly shouted:

"Wait, what are you doing?"

"You want to go up and fight him?"

Paige adjusted the angle of the grass ring and answered seriously:

"Yes, he just called my name."

Matthew looked confused:

"no?"

Paige crossed her arms:

"Don't you think I am the strongest among the immortals?"

Matthew was silent.

Seeing Peggy's resolute attitude, he had no choice but to remind:

"This guy is very strong, you have to be careful."

Paige’s winning gesture:

"You'd better worry about that stupid guy, his shield is about to be pierced!"

The words fell.

Peggy, who transformed into the Valkyrie of the Moon, brandished two enchanted silver swords and rushed towards the slaying demon lord who looked like a giant baboon.

The two exchanged quick rounds.

Matthew felt relieved now——

Peggy is not as reckless as she seems. She is using her speed advantage to pull the Slaughter Demon Lord.

Although the latter is powerful in frontal attack, the Moon Valkyrie can crush him in terms of speed.

As long as Paige doesn't have the murderous intention and doesn't operate randomly.

It is not a problem to maneuver and escape.

And the other side.

The situation in Argus was not as good as it was at the beginning.

His shield was already slightly corroded by acid rain and brain matter. Although he had tried his best to avoid it, once there was a shortcoming between masters' moves, it could be infinitely magnified.

The Twin Cavalry Demon is obviously not an idiot.

They sensed Argus's weakness and attacked him fiercely.

Just a few minutes down.

Argus's response became obviously difficult.

His pace is still very steady.

The biggest hidden danger is whether the shield itself can withstand the subsequent violent impact of the Gemini Cavalry Demon!

"Let Sinfulan go and take care of Argus. Don't engage in battle with the enemy. Just bring him back..."

"I will ask the Dragon Lord Cossack to meet them. If the Gemini Cavalry Demon wants to pursue them, the Cossack will stop them!"

Matthew gave the order.

Then he rubbed his temples vigorously.

Look around.

The demon army is densely packed with elite units.

And the number of elite undead under Matthew is actually quite large.

But it still pales in comparison to the demon army. .

no way.

The two sides themselves are not of the same magnitude.

Matthew didn't expect to be able to defeat the demon army that had mobilized the entire plane in this regard.

He is just worried that if more and more elite demons come out to call for battle, should he continue to fight?

If we accept the challenge, which units would be better to send?

"Also...why does Osedro have to let them take turns to call for formation?"

"If I were the commander of the demon army, I could just ask everyone to charge. Even if I can't cross the wall of Rolling Stone City with my numerical advantage, I should be able to force me to abandon the position where the cemetery is located, right?"

Matthew's brain was spinning rapidly.

He could feel himself growing rapidly in this war.

This is a sublimation of thinking and consciousness.

It is also a unique understanding of war.

After a while.

Argus successfully escaped from the battlefield.

The undead Cossack took his place and fought fiercely with the Gemini Cavalry Demon.

The Cossacks are not weak.

But the Gemini Cavalry Demon seems to be very restrained in his fighting style.

A few rounds down.

The body of the former dragon-man lord now has several holes.

Although the soul fire did not suffer too much loss.

But the operation was obviously not as smooth as it was at the beginning.

"Continue to replace people."

Matthew sighed.

His perspective seemed to jump out from the chessboard on the battlefield, overlooking everything around him from a higher dimension.

That moment.

He caught a strange signal.

That is a change of destiny that can only be observed at the equilibrium node!

A sudden realization arose in Matthew's heart.

He wasn't the only one paying attention to the war.

The entire world of Irondor is watching this war.

Including the will of the plane itself!

The wonderful flow of destiny began to stir slightly.

Matthew suddenly stood up.

His gaze looked toward the northeast.

over there.

He vaguely saw a ray of golden light!

That was a turn of fortune.

That is the direction the scale of war is tipping!

That is……

Emerald Cangting!

next moment.

The annoying strange birds continued to lower their height, and they hovered over the cemetery, trying to be as provocative as possible.

Matthew turned a blind eye to this.

Because on the data column.

The message he wanted to see most had been refreshed!

…

"Tip: Your partner "A Bing" has understood the realm of the Ancient God of Beauty and has exceeded his capacity to practice his legendary way.

Are you willing to provide him with a large amount of XP to help him advance to the legendary profession "Blade of Elegance"? "

…
