The necromancer just wants to plant trees

Chapter 44 The Southern Four (3700)

The significance of the sentry was most vividly demonstrated in this encounter.

Matthew had never thought of fighting against the three evil organizations on his own, so after the attack failed, his tactics immediately changed their focus to delaying and probing.

And Ella lived up to expectations.

In the sound of horse hooves.

A total of eight knights came to Matthew smoothly to assist him.

The leaders were Brad, who was fully armed, and Zeller, who was in civilian clothes. The remaining six knights were also armed to the teeth. Matthew knew that they were not members of the garrison, but members of the Lord's Guard.

"The Lord already knows. He ordered me to come here first. Follow-up support is already on the way."

Zeller dismounted and stood side by side with Matthew.

The knights advanced slowly with their spears in hand.

Under night.

The nearly three-meter-long spear gave people a great sense of oppression.

This is a serious military weapon!

Even Edson, who had a high self-esteem, was no longer arrogant. He did not dare to continue chasing, but hurriedly retreated towards the entrance of the mine.

Brad and others are about to give chase.

Matthew quickly reminded:

"Be careful, there's something weird about those wooden boxes!"

Upon hearing this, the knights quickly tightened their reins.

The moonlight shines on the wasteland ahead.

But there were more than a dozen wooden boxes scattered near the densely packed kobold corpses. Several of them had been knocked open due to falling, and they looked empty inside.

But Matthew's nerves were throbbing violently.

"careful!"

"It's "sloughing gel". Is there any developer powder?" "

He saw the message prompt.

Knowing that the monster in the wooden box had already sneaked over under the cover of night and its unique shape.

Without saying a word, Zeller smashed a glass bottle into the open space in front of him. With a bang, the bottle shattered and lavender smoke spread out. Wherever the smoke went, some sloughing condensation that was originally difficult to distinguish with the naked eye appeared. The glue was suddenly dyed a thick layer of purple!

This is developing powder, which is a powerful prop for mid- to low-level adventurers to fight against invisible units. The disadvantage is that it is expensive, and even someone with a fortune like Matthew cannot afford it.

The fastest climbing one has already approached everyone's position.

The horse at the front suddenly raised its front hooves due to fright, and neighed loudly.

The knight barely maintained his balance, tightened his reins and moved aside.

Brad had quick eyesight and quick hands, and he stabbed him with a gun.

The cast-iron spear easily pierced the molting gel jelly-like body, but the latter was just pinned to the ground and unable to move, and did not seem to be dead.

"This won't kill them. You need to use fire or lightning, or simply dry out the moisture in their bodies."

As a mage.

Matthew's basic skills are still passable. The sloughing gel is a kind of mud monster, which takes on the shape of a transparent or translucent jelly.

They don't move very fast, but they are also extremely easy to ignore.

Once a living creature accidentally touches the molting gel, the latter will expand rapidly and engulf the living creature as quickly as possible. The person wrapped in the molting gel will suffer tremendous pain within 72 hours. They cannot Escape and struggle, can only feel the arrival of death.

Their flesh, blood, internal organs and bones will be easily digested by the molting gel, leaving only a little hair and a complete human skin.

The molting gel will spit out the human skin and hair after digestion, leaving them in place before setting off to find the next prey.

It is precisely because of this characteristic that some evil spellcasters or organizations will accumulate molting gel and use it to peel their own skin. Of course, there are many examples in history of accumulating molting gel and accidentally being eaten alive.

This thing is far less clumsy and harmless than it looks.

Got a reminder from Matthew.

Everyone began to clear away the molting gel nearby.

Zeller also carefully counted the number of wooden boxes to prevent any molting gel from getting lost and leaving nearby to harm residents.

Matthew took this opportunity to cast the undead summoning technique on the pile of kobold corpses!

"Tip: The Summoning of the Undead spell was successfully cast, and you obtained 30 Silver Moon Kobold Zombies (average level LV6).

You obtained 3 kobold skeleton soldiers (average level LV4)"

After one round of summoning, most of Matthew's mana was gone.

The kobolds who had just been fighting for the Scourge Cult instantly turned into undead and turned against them.

Except for the corpses of three of them that were so mutilated by Eli that they could only summon skeletons, the remaining kobolds were all transformed into Silver Moon Zombies.

Compared with the silver moon zombies transformed by humans, they are smaller in size and lower in level, but they also inherit characteristics such as "Tree Skin Technique", "Moonlight Power", and "Holy Moon Armor".

Except for their reduced agility, they are stronger than their previous selves in other aspects!

This is the first time Matthew has controlled so many undead creatures at the same time.

But he didn't feel overwhelmed.

Instead, it feels like playing an RTS game——

Draw a frame in your mind and order the kobolds to attack, defend or garrison. The latter can usually be executed smoothly, but more detailed instructions are difficult to issue.

In order to perform more detailed micro-management, Matthew must learn metamagic skills related to "group control".

Got kobold zombies to help clean up the molting gel.

The pressure on the knights was immediately greatly reduced.

They began to turn their attention to the mine entrance.

now.

Everyone at the entrance also had a fierce argument with Edson.

"We were discovered by the officials of Rolling Stone Town. The evil Necromancer looks like he is not easy to mess with. We have no weapons and lack of manpower. It is time to admit that this operation failed."

A one-eyed man dropped these words and walked into the mine without looking back.

Although the others did not say it explicitly, they all agreed with his opinion.

Only Edson's eyes were dark and angry, but he had no intention of retreating.

Kunna and Leon looked at each other, and both of them noticed something fishy.

But there are several knights outside the cave who have already avoided the remaining molting gel and are chasing this way, their eyes showing retreat.

For members of evil organizations, having the courage to admit failure and knowing how to protect yourself wisely are the highest principles of survival.

If Edson and the Scourge Cult can really tear open the wound of Rolling Stone Town through the initiation ceremony and make people here panic as he said, then they don't mind adding the icing on the cake and joining forces with the Scourge Cult to carry out an evil act in Rolling Stone Town. Organized carnival.

But that's not the case now.

Rolling Stone is a tougher nut to crack than you thought.

Then go.

That's the best policy.

More and more people retreated towards the cave.

A mocking smile appeared on Edson's face.

Kunna and Leon frowned and took a few steps into the cave.

But it didn't take long.

The people who had left earlier involuntarily moved back.

"Step aside!"

A rough voice came from deep inside the cave.

Several peripheral members of the Silver Frost Brotherhood failed to dodge in time and were actually thrown into the stone wall by a powerful hammer!

Boom boom boom!

The entire mine shook violently.

Everyone was forced to retreat towards the cave entrance in shock.

Another feminine voice sounded:

"How many times have I told you not to hammer people against the wall? The soil here is soft and you will bury yourself alive if you are not careful."

Accompanied by the sound of speaking.

A dark-skinned, slender female Drow stepped out of the shadows.

There was very little fabric on her body, which could barely protect her vital parts. Apart from her hot figure, the thing that most attracted everyone's attention was the scimitars hanging on both sides of her slender thighs.

The scimitar has a large arc, and the blade is flashing with little silver lights.

There is no doubt that this is a drow warrior (note: dark elf) with outstanding fighting ability.

behind her.

A troll with dark blue skin and his head almost reaching the top of the cave was walking lazily.

Compared to normal trolls.

The biggest special thing about this troll is that he is so fat!

He almost filled the entire mine tunnel alone.

The gangsters who were knocked away just now were obviously the work of this troll.

"Hey, girl, no matter how many times you told Shinwak, it's no use!"

The troll lost his temper at the drow warrior and said:

"Xinwak's memory is only 17 seconds at most. It's useless for you to tell Xinwak this! It's useless!"

The drow warrior rolled his eyes.

I'm too lazy to talk to this idiot.

At this moment, everyone was forced to exit the cave. They watched the fat troll squeeze his body out of the cave with difficulty, and then simply fell to the side——

boom!

The earth trembled slightly.

The troll lay on the ground and groaned in comfort.

"Xinwak, you are the most self-aware troll I have ever seen, but next time you lie down, please let me know in advance that I have a phobia of earthquakes."

Two more people came out from behind the troll.

The one who spoke was a wild boar man holding a huge battle axe.

And the soldiers around him are even more eye-catching——

He is not tall, with a ring of fine scales on his forehead and a short horn.

There is a long tail on his back, and the scales on the tail are dark blue, exuding a strange luster in the night.

Combined with his deep vertical pupils, the identity of this warrior is naturally obvious.

Half dragon.

"Warning: You encountered the Southern Four of the Scourge Order——

Headhunter Lyra (Drow Warrior/LV15);

Nushan Shinwak (Troll/LV14);

Hundreds of people killed Mahdith (half-dragon curse swordsman/LV14);

Deep Howling Butcher Banwen (Quaerboar Warrior/LV14);

You have encountered the underground coalition forces (kobolds, gnolls, dwarves, lemures, etc.) from the Underdark, and the number exceeds 300! "

Look at the lines of information.

Matthew's eyelids twitched.

He guessed that Edson would not be the only one from the Scourge Order to come alone.

But I didn't expect that the opponent's reinforcements were so fierce. They were just four fourth-level macho men. The remaining coalition forces actually came from the Dark Territory!

"I'm afraid this is not a plundering ritual at all. The Natural Disaster Religion wants to attack Rolling Stone Town!"

Zeller looked very serious:

"We may have misjudged the enemy's true purpose!"

Matthew was equally prepared.

He looked far into the direction of the cave entrance. Countless kobolds and jackals poured out of it. They were still distributing weapons to the people of the Silver Frost Brotherhood and the Order of the Blight!

At this juncture, the other two organizations had no choice but to jump on the pirate ship of the Calamity Cult.

war.

At least a small battle is inevitable!

"We may need to retreat first."

Zeller suggested.

"Wait a minute."

After Matthew said this, he was staring in the direction of the cave entrance.

Zeller followed his gaze.

Suddenly, he saw the magician Edson cursing at his subordinates!

"Do it."

Matthew suddenly whispered.

The air beside Edson twisted, and several half-broken bottles hit his body and feet. The next second, the Jackal's forehead, back and chest suddenly ignited with raging flames!

"who?!"

The jackal roared angrily and slammed out the mace in his hand, but it missed.

Peggy, who sneaked quietly and succeeded in one attack, ran very fast.

Before the person beside Edson could react, the Minotaur skeleton ran away in a hurry.

All that was left was the hasty efforts of others to put out the fire.

However, what Peggy smashed out was the "Fire Glue" and "Molotov cocktail" that Matthew got from the arsonist.

Once the flame is ignited, it cannot be contained.

What's more, Ederson's hair has become the best fuel.

Just a few seconds.

As Ederson jumped up and down, his black hair was completely burned.

The strange blood mist emerged again.

But the power of resurrection given by the God of Midnight can save the life of the jackal, and also has the opportunity to quickly regenerate his fur, but the most important furs no longer exist!

"Tip: Peggy used hot glue to burn the gnoll's fur (including the two "exile documents" on the chest hair)"

"It turns out there are two copies hidden. It's really deliberate."

Matthew smiled in relief.

The next second.

Just as Edson furiously ordered his men to charge towards the oak forest.

A bright circle of light flashed in the open space ahead.

A mountain-like skeleton appeared out of thin air.

It turned its head and looked directly in the direction of the cave entrance. The faint soul fire in its head was as terrifying as the lamp of death.

that moment.

Everyone felt like the earth was falling apart!
