The necromancer just wants to plant trees

…

"Don't think about it!"

"I accept your terms!"

Matthew agreed without hesitation.

Then he changed the subject:

"But before I bring Jia Siliwen over, you should also show me some sincerity, right?"

Matthew appeared confident and spoke as usual.

In his heart, he has prepared many emergency escape routes——

Jia Siliwen must not be released casually.

Then you can only find someone else to fool you.

But which of these guys in the hall can be easily fooled?

Matthew was pessimistic about this.

Therefore, he could only try to use clichés, but if it didn't work, he could only withdraw from Terraste's ancient god restoration plan.

"I wonder how much Qiuka can imitate Jia Siliwen's charm?"

The image of the little white cat appeared in Matthew's mind.

Jia Siliwen is always in a sealed state. In theory, even if she rescues her from prison, most of the seals will not be lifted.

Therefore, the problem of strength is not big.

Qiuka has the bloodline of Jia Siliwen, which provides a very important condition for confusing the fake with the real one.

But the troublesome point is——

Sen'er is Setrunk's mentor, and the former's understanding of the Thousand Changers must be better than his own.

It was too difficult to hide it from him.

However, this road is not completely without opportunities.

Matthew knew it.

Even though Senel is a very evil guy, he is also a tradeable object.

As long as you can convince the other person.

Maybe he can turn around and testify for himself.

Thinking about it.

Matthew's tense nerves completely relaxed.

He could feel that when he broke his old habits, he felt like he was no longer constrained.

Doing so means facing greater risks.

But it’s better than sitting still and waiting to die——

After learning about the ancient god's restoration plan from Osedro, Matthew was upset because he clearly realized that the old structure was about to be overturned!

The collapse of the alliance may seem far away, but it may only happen in the blink of an eye.

Even if not this time.

It could happen in the next big event!

The biggest source of Matthew's sense of crisis is that when he is surrounded by enemies on all sides, all the legends and divine mages have actually given up!

This means that the so-called guarding is just a habit.

The power of habit is certainly powerful.

This prompted the top mages to still abide by the inherent order hundreds of years after the Scourge Mages left.

But when this order encounters a stronger impact.

Habits will be broken.

And once it is broken, it is too difficult to recover.

Matthew realized this early on.

For legendary mages, the existence of an alliance is not necessary.

Many times, one top mage supports many middle- and lower-level mage.

If you go out and work alone.

They gain greater power and freedom as well as greater returns.

This seems to be the case even at the level of a divine mage——

When extraordinary power is attributed to individuals.

In fact, the divine mages don't need so many middle- and lower-level mages to serve them.

And once the instinct or inertia of a divine mage or a high-ranking legend to maintain the existence of the alliance disappears.

The alliance will quickly fall apart from within.

This time all the top mages went to the disappeared historical world is a precursor.

The fact is exactly as Matthew had guessed before——

The legendary mages don't care about Irondor at all.

They only care about themselves.

Guarding is just something done conveniently under the influence of inertia in order to protect one's own interests.

think carefully.

The history of the Seven Saints Alliance is only a few hundred years old.

Nothing in this world is constant.

And under such tumultuous changes.

There may be nothing wrong with maintaining a conservative strategy, but it won't do anything for yourself or the continuation of Rolling Stone.

On the night of the intense exchange with Sif.

Matthew figured out the joints and took this daring adventure.

He gambled a lot.

The purpose is also very simple, just to find a way to survive in the future situation!

His power doesn't seem strong enough.

But he actually has a lot of opportunities.

Perhaps only one catalysis is needed.

Qualitative changes may occur!

Of course, Terraste had no idea of ​​the changes in thoughts stirring in Matthew's mind.

After Matthew spoke.

He quickly consulted the others for their opinions.

Then he replied:

"Okay, you come with me."

The two of them walked toward the southwest side of the hall.

over there.

There is a corridor filled with dark shadows.

The entire corridor seemed to be filled with a black hole that was spreading outward.

Get a little closer.

Matthew felt a strong sense of crisis!

"Plane of Shadows?"

he asked.

Tyras nodded:

"This is the Silent Corridor. It is part of the shadow world. When we talk in it, the news will never leak out."

"You come with me."

As he spoke, he took down an antique copper lamp from the shelf on the wall next to it.

Terraste lit the copper lamp.

Wisps of warm orange-yellow light spread out.

Wherever the light goes.

The shadow quickly dissipated, revealing a small area of ​​free movement.

Matthew followed Terraste into the quiet corridor.

Visitors from the material world apparently alerted the monsters lurking in the shadow world.

Matthew turned his head and looked sharply into the deep darkness beside him.

over there.

There are two shadow monsters ready to move.

Matthew knows this kind of monster. They are out-and-out shadow creatures that feed on the color elements of living people.

Once entangled by the shadow monster.

Material creatures will gradually lose all color and eventually become new shadow creatures!

The two shadow creatures had obviously not eaten in days.

As soon as he saw Matthew and Terraste, he rushed over.

However, when they approached the light, the two monsters seemed to smell something and immediately turned around and ran away!

Unfortunately it was too late.

A bamboo stick suddenly appeared in the shadows, and Matthew couldn't see how it was lit.

After a few seconds.

The two monsters were beaten with bruises and swollen faces.

But they didn't leave.

Instead, he stayed in the shadow area outside the aperture.

Look at how they look.

He was probably ordered by Terraste to stand there and stand guard for the secret conversation between the two.

"Our sound is limited to the area where the light travels, so you don't have to worry."

Terraste turned around and placed the copper lamp on the ground next to him.

He looked at Matthew with eyes full of admiration:

"I underestimated your courage."

"I thought that even if you discovered my plan, you wouldn't dare to come and confront me face to face."

Face Terrast.

Matthew's attitude became much more polite.

He said very kindly:

"Maybe you just misjudged my identity?"

His tone was quite relaxed.

But then.

Matthew was slightly burned by Terraste's burning eyes.

The old elf man said firmly:

"No!"

"You are not the master of the void."

"At least, you didn't really want to work for him."

Matthew said nothing.

Terraste said sonorously:

"I believe that if I kill you, the Lord of the Void will never hold a grudge against me. Maybe, he will reward me in turn - promising me to become the general of the Void Army or other positions."

Matthew's forehead was sweating slightly.

"But I wouldn't do that."

"From the beginning to the end, I never thought about taking refuge in the void, nor did I think about opposing the Seven Saints Alliance. You should understand this."

Matthew nodded.

Terraste continued talking to himself:

"I just hope that the elves can find a way forward, instead of suddenly disappearing into the long river of history amidst drastic changes."

"We are the enviable immortal species, but the immortal species care more about their own lives than the continuation of the population."

"In this respect, I am different from most wood elves."

"I hope that my tribe can prosper and last for a long time. For this, I will give everything, even my life."

Matthew couldn't tell whether this was true or false.

But even if it's a scene.

He also took advantage of the situation and gave a few compliments.

Yet Tyrast completely ignored his flattery.

The old elf patiently explained to Matthew:

"I read a lot of books, studied the rise and fall of civilizations of many races, and secretly observed them for hundreds of years."

"In the end, I desperately discovered that the only way to save my tribe was to let them regain their faith!"

"They can only survive in this world under the guidance and protection of a voice they can absolutely trust."

"Otherwise they are just like headless flies - no, maybe worse than headless flies. Headless flies don't have the troublesome disadvantages of immortal species!"

"Speaking of faith, since the Elf God is dead and the Ancient God of Nature has also fallen long ago, only by becoming the new Elf God can I fundamentally solve this problem."

"Speaking of which, I want to ask you - do you think the Alliance will allow me to become the new Elf God?"

Terraste's eyes were quite straightforward.

Matthew could only shake his head:

"I have no idea."

“If you don’t know, you’re not allowed, and that’s understandable.”

The old elf man sighed:

"There is a proverb among the Sioux people - don't let others sleep soundly on the side of the bed. This is exactly what it says."

"For divine mages, the best wood elves are weak but able to continuously squeeze out value."

"They don't care at all whether the wood elves will cause trouble. They want us to make more trouble, which means they can always get a handle on us in exchange for greater benefits."

"I can understand them, but I don't want the wood elves to continue on this road of no return..."

Terraste's tone was quite sincere.

Matthew also showed some sincerity:

"For me personally, these are things that should be taken for granted."

"I can understand your mood and approach."

Tyrast shook his head:

"I'm not saying this to make you understand me."

"Actually, I just want to tell you that the principle of not allowing others to sleep soundly on the side of the bed is also true here -

The power of the ancient god has withered greatly.

After the restart of Twin Heaven, everyone you just met in the hall will share a part of the priesthood and power.

Eleven people...

I think it's a bit too much, what do you think? "

Matthew's expression changed.

At this moment.

The old elf finally revealed his ferocious face hidden under the harmless appearance of humans and animals.

Although the other party's malice was not directed at Matthew.

But Matthew also felt an unprecedented fear!

But he behaved quite calmly:

"So, Jia Si Liwen?"

Terraste blinked:

"Just find someone to pretend to be one. I know you have a wide network of contacts, so you should be able to find someone who meets the requirements."

"It doesn't matter even if someone doubts you. What's important is that the person you find must be strong enough. He must be a legendary master and have rich fighting experience."

"You, me, and the person you are looking for, the three of us cooperate, so after activating Twin Heaven, kill everyone else!"

"We share the power and authority of the ancient gods, and you will become a transcendent existence in the alliance second only to the Seven Saints!"

Seeing that the other party spoke so frankly, Matthew knew that it was impossible for him not to agree.

He simply said half-truthfully:

"You wouldn't say the same thing to other people, would you?"

The old elf man said seriously:

"of course not."

"I want to form an alliance with you only temporarily. If you don't come, I will use other methods to trap and kill those guys. Of course, the method may be a little more troublesome, and the success rate is not high."

Matthew nodded doubtfully.

"Let me put it more clearly. It will be good for you to join this plan. It will be a big benefit."

"For me, it's the same thing. Don't you realize that except you and me, everyone here is full of evil people?"

"These people deserve to die. If they become the ancient gods of Irondor, it will be a disaster!"

Terrast said righteously.

Matthew couldn't help but complain in his heart: You knew it was a disaster, but you personally launched the ancient god's restoration plan?

His thoughts were moving very quickly.

Terra may have another purpose in wooing him——

As long as the alliance doesn't collapse immediately.

Then his identity as an Alliance Mage can come in handy in subsequent negotiations.

And start from the opposite perspective.

If great demons, dracolichs, murderers, etc. are allowed to become the gods of Lost Paradise, they will also become obstacles in negotiations with the alliance.

certainly.

The premise of all this is that Tyrast really wants to coexist peacefully with the Alliance...

Matthew thought about it and asked casually:

"What about the drow?"

Terraste sneered:

"You have a crush on her?"

"Even in the Dark Territory, she is a first-class murderer. In terms of blood debt, the crimes on her hands are no less than that of Sen Er..."

"If their power hadn't been needed to activate Twin Heaven, I wouldn't have cooperated with these treacherous and evil people at all!"

Before Matthew could speak.

Terraste said quietly again:

"Don't think I'm cruel."

"Perhaps they are also blatantly discussing how to kill us all after the incident is completed!"

It happened to be at this time.

Morzon, the traveler god, and Stephanie, the dracolich, walked through the entrance of the secluded corridor together.

The former seems to be able to see the figures of Matthew and Terraste.

He also smiled at Matthew.

Matthew's face twitched slightly.

Then he said decisively:

"Can."

"I promise to cooperate with you."

"I hope you can keep your promise."

Terraste said leisurely:

"As long as we succeed, you will be the elves' forever friends."

"I promise that you will receive supreme power and glory..."

"How about the title God of Man?"

…

A few minutes later.

Matthew and Terraste walked out of the quiet corridor.

A while passed.

At Terraste's prompting, everyone else also ended their conversations.

They sat on a neat long table with solemn expressions.

Terraste stood at the end of the long table, looking around everyone, and finally said slowly:

"All preliminary preparations have been completed."

"Let me ask you one last time, does anyone want to quit?"

"This is the last chance to leave peacefully."

Dragon Lich Stephanie said coldly:

"Come on, let's get down to business, Terraste. I'm not giving you my granddaughter's head just to hear you talk about these useless things!"

Matthew's peripheral vision flickered——

The death of the green dragon Fatina was indeed abnormal.

Apparently it was not Terraste who killed her, but Stephanie who offered her granddaughter's head!

"The cooperation between these two people probably started a long time ago."

Matthew secretly paid attention.

now.

Demon Lord Eisner stood up:

“When it gets to this point, no one wants to leave.”

"But I'm still not satisfied with why someone can join halfway. Even if he is the messenger of the Lord of the Void, once we become gods, are we still afraid that the Lord of the Void will deal with us?"

"Also, why are you looking for Jia Siliwen?"

"I hate the Changers!"

Terraste said calmly:

"The power of the Lord of the Void can help us resist the impact from the ruins of the Twin Heavens at the most critical moment. You should know very well that there are remnants of the ancient gods everywhere. We are very fragile when we become gods and need additional and powerful power to replace us. We provide barriers, and the more prepared we are for that, the better.”

"As for Jia Siliwen, she once replaced the God of Murder, and the God of Murder has a very special status in Tianlun Palace. His state at that time was between the God of Law and the God of Faith. If Jia Siliwen can If you join, it will also be good for our gods."

"More people joining means that our new heaven will be stronger. This is obvious."

Eisner grunted a few more words.

Terraste gave an almost perfect answer.

finally.

The demon lord sat down unhappily.

Matthew looked on with cold eyes, admiring Terraste's mouth to the extreme——

Saying in front of yourself that there are too many people and there is not enough cake to share;

What Eisner said is that the more people, the bigger the cake.

Why didn't I realize that he was so good at deceiving me before?

"As expected of a core member of the Bamboo Stick Party, or is it that Magic Dragon has improved his deception capabilities?"

It's a pity that no matter how Matthew sensed it, he couldn't find anyone other than ten people in the hall.

There is a high probability that the magic dragon is not here, nor is it on Tyrast's body.

See other people with no more opinions.

Terraste nodded slightly and began to tell the main topic:

"At this point, our plan is not far from success."

"For the next official action, we have only one goal, and that is to find the artifact Lost Paradise left in the Blood Drinking Mountain!"

"I have made temporary changes to my original plans as a result of Mr Matthew's involvement."

"Matthew has the Guilty Crown in his hand, which is enough to enter the Blood Drinking Mountain Sanctuary directly from Chunsu Valley in the Helen Mountains, so he and half of the members will enter the Blood Drinking Mountain from there;

The remaining half of the people and I passed through the portal in the Secret Light Jungle and entered the Blood Drinking Mountain at the same time.

It must be stated.

Blood Drinking Mountain is a very dangerous place!

It is a sanctuary for trolls, but for life without troll blood, every step is a crisis.

Except for the traps.

As far as I know, there are a large number of ancient monsters in the Blood Drinking Mountain, including many legendary creatures.

also.

The blood-drinking mountains contain the grudges of trolls that were created by the disintegration of the troll empire in ancient times.

Those resentful spirits are not ordinary undead spirits.

And the number is huge.

Even the legendary Necromancer may not be able to handle it.

We are all experienced veterans. Regarding safety issues, I will stop here. "

Then he unfolded a map. Most of the areas were unknown, with only a few areas lit up.

"This is a map of Troll Sanctuary. It was drawn in the era when the Troll Empire collapsed, so it is for reference only."

"What we are looking for may be hidden in a building with a pattern like this..."

Terraste said, pointing to a familiar portrait of Matthew next to the map.

Everyone stared at the portrait.

Ace wondered:

"What is this painting?"

"Second child?"

Tyras nodded:

"To be precise, it's the dick of the troll god Poole."

Mo Song, the traveler god, smiled:

"Can."

"That's troll."

Terraste said very seriously:

"Remember, the Lost Paradise we are looking for is sealed in an object of similar shape. It may be a simple stone pillar, or it may be a huge mountain of similar shape."

"This is a time-consuming and labor-intensive task, because it is difficult for us to locate its location through spirituality or divination, and we can only search using the stupidest methods."

"During this period, we have to avoid conflicts with the guards of Blood Drinking Mountain."

"We are not given much time, probably only about a month."

"The only good news is that the Blood Drinking Mountain Sanctuary is not too vast. We are now divided into two groups, which can effectively improve efficiency. No matter which side finds the sealed artifact, be sure to remind the other side, I understand. ?"

Everyone responded sparsely.

Terra then led everyone to sign a mutual contract.

This contract is said to be made from scraps of the artifact Book of Integrity, and has considerable constraints on the oath.

The contract clearly stipulates that participants shall not harm each other, shall not reveal each other's information, etc...

Matthew observed that almost everyone was cheerful when signing their names.

So we went to him.

He also wrote his name on it casually——

Matthew Blood Flag.

As a contract specialist.

He knew very clearly that the contract pointed to the name that was most recognized deep in the soul of the signer.

Therefore, from a superficial point of view, there is nothing wrong with Matthew's signature. At most, it is a difference in directivity.

But only he knows what his real name is!

However, this contract is most likely just a decoration, otherwise how could Terraste and others sign it with peace of mind?

After getting down to business.

Terraste answered some more questions from others.

The end.

He gave Matthew twelve hours.

"If you fail to bring Jia Si Liwen within twelve hours, then we will exclude you from the plan."

"I believe you know very well that in this situation, you can't find anyone else who can compete with us."

Terraste pretended to "intimidate" Matthew with a few words.

Matthew then planned to leave the hall.

But not before that.

He was stopped by Mosun, the traveler god.

"Is it convenient for us to chat?"

Mo Song’s face was filled with joy.

Reaching out to avoid hitting the smiling man, Matthew nodded. He followed Mo Song, and not long after, he came to the quiet corridor again.

Mozon lit another copper lamp.

The two slowly stepped into the shadows.

At this moment.

Two shadow monsters rushed over menacingly!

However, as soon as they approached the edge of the light circle, they suddenly braked and tried to turn around.

Unfortunately it was too late.

Mo Song waved the long whip in his hand, and silently, the two shadow monsters were knocked unconscious.

A few minutes later.

They stood obediently outside the lamp circle, standing guard for the two of them.

This scene looks so familiar.

So much so that Matthew couldn't help but glance at the two shadow monsters, and then laughed softly——

What a coincidence, it's the two unlucky brothers again!

"It seems that the legendary short memory storage time of shadow creatures is not a rumor..."

Between thoughts.

The two came to the right place.

Mozon, the god of travelers, said something surprising with a smile on his face:

"Did that little guy Terraste trick you into plotting against others?"

Matthew changed the topic without changing his expression:

"What do you think?"

Mo Song sneered:

"Do you think others can't see the deal between you two?"

"You just came here today, and Terraste suddenly threw out the candidate Jia Siliwen who was not originally planned."

"If there is no communication between you, wouldn't he consider the possibility that you can't rescue Jia Siliwen?"

"He was too blunt in his deception..."

"Everyone with a discerning eye knows that if Terraste dares to say something like this, it means that you will definitely be able to successfully bring Jia Siliwen here - but I don't know whether it is true or not."

"You don't need to refute me on this - he has already proposed a plan to split the army into two groups. The so-called meeting with Jia Siliwen is just a formality. You are destined to be part of the plan."

"Isn't it?"

Mo Song chuckled and said:

"Don't think that I'm the only one who realizes this. Everyone else is also aware of this..."

"The reason why everyone doesn't speak clearly is because Terraste is the core of this plan."

"Whoever he wants to join can join."

"After all, among everyone present, he is the only one who can quickly ignite the divine fire..."

Matthew asked rhetorically:

"So, what exactly do you want to tell me?"

The eyes of the Traveler God are extremely bright:

"I?"

"Trast and I probably have similar ideas——"

"Don't you think eleven people are a bit too much?"

"I want to form an alliance with you, Matthew."

"only me and you."

"Do you want to hear my terms?"

…
