The soul of nature, formed by geographical environment and group consciousness, often has its own temperament.

For example, the nature soul in the snowy mountains prefers to sleep, and is very lazy in external communication. Maybe with Matthew's high nature affinity, it may not be willing to talk to you.

The rain forest is different. It appears young and lively, yet cruel and warlike.

This is related to environmental factors. The rainforest is extremely rich in species and has dense ecological niches. All creatures are constantly fighting to find a way to evolve.

The law of the rain forest is that the weak eat the strong.

Therefore, the group consciousness composed of these creatures is naturally violent and warlike.

Facing the challenge of the Soul of the Rainforest, Matthew has no choice but to accept it!

If he avoids fighting, he will not only lose an opportunity to improve himself, but may also cast a shadow on his subsequent development in the natural field.

"etc."

After accepting the challenge, Matthew immediately stopped. He said to Lao Jitou and Luo Lan:

"I'm in a little trouble and I won't be able to go with you in the short term."

The challenge of Soul of the Rainforest is only for Matthew. He doesn't want to drag Lao Jitou and Luo Lan into the water.

In the doubtful eyes of the two people.

Matthew explained:

"Just now, I had some sparks with the natural soul of this rainforest, and it now has a strong opinion on me. It won't be long before all kinds of beasts and monsters come to my door. I don't want to Implicate you."

Lao Jitou looked at Matthew suspiciously:

"Can you communicate with the soul of the rainforest?"

Matthew didn’t elaborate, just nodded and said:

"by chance."

Upon hearing this, Luo Lan immediately said categorically:

"How can you give up on your companions at this time? Matthew, no matter how many monsters come, I will fight side by side with you. I will be your strongest support in the battle!"

"I was worried that the journey would be boring and I had nowhere to draw materials. This is the perfect time to show me what kind of monsters there are in this rainforest! Unfortunately, no matter how powerful they are, they can't compare to the sky giant I captured with my own hands! "

Lao Jitou took a deep look at Matthew.

The next moment, he picked up the dagger and walked back:

"I will not give up on my employer midway, and you are not familiar with this area. If we part ways, your chances of winning will be greatly reduced."

"Just, can you tell me more details about the attack of the jungle monsters?"

Matthew pondered:

"It will last about ten days. During the day, they may just be ordinary harassment. Generally, at midnight, the monsters are more likely to attack madly."

This was not Matthew's random talk, but he had captured the fragments of information revealed by the other party during his communication with the Rainforest Soul.

But Matthew wasn't sure if it was a smoke bomb.

In short, he had to be prepared for the next ten days.

After hearing this, Lao Jitou chose another path and motioned for Matthew and the two to follow:

"The terrain here is not suitable for us to fight. I will take you to another place.

That was the outskirts of Bitter Water Swamp, where the terrain was relatively open and the terrain was not that complicated.

The only monsters that appear nearby are black-backed gnolls and small mite monsters, most of which are nothing to worry about.

The only two points to note are that there are occasionally groups of wyverns in that area, but the chance of us running into them is very low;

In addition, the western part of Bitterwater Swamp is the territory of a manticore. It lives for a very long time, at least two hundred years. Try not to lean over there——

Let me explain in advance that if a manticore or wyvern appears, then I can only give priority to protecting myself. "

Luo Lan smiled disapprovingly and said:

"It doesn't matter, I will protect you!

Suddenly I felt a little excited. How will future generations tell this experience——

Is this the beginning of the legendary journey of the great poet Loren?

Well, this title is a bit cheesy, bards should sing the praises of others rather than brag about themselves.

Haha, I thought of the title of the new work, it's called "Matthew the Brave/Part 1: Rainforest Fever"!

Maybe it can even be adapted into a stage play!

The pictorial for the stage play uses the rainforest as the background. Your portrait is placed in the center, next to two Jango beauties with sparse fabrics and admiring expressions on their faces. You can also hug her from one side to the other, how about that? "

Matthew patted him on the shoulder:

"It sounds good, but remember, after the fire, give me a supplementary portrait fee and authorization fee."

To the west of Bitter Water Swamp, on a wasteland covered with scattered reeds and thorns, Old Ji Tou was using a short knife to chop off all the plants that might obstruct his view.

Matthew and Lorraine were also assisting.

Matthew looked around and found that the land chosen by Lao Jitou was indeed good.

First of all, the terrain here is higher and the view is relatively wide.

The second is a piece of dry land, far away from rivers and streams. There are few weeds and shrubs, making it easy to clean.

Finally, there aren't many tall trees around here, it's just a small clearing in the dense rainforest.

"Why is there a place like this?"

Matthew realized that this highland was not naturally formed, so he asked.

Lao Jitou chopped the thorns meticulously:

"There used to be a mage who lived deep in the Bitterwater Swamp. He was a loner, didn't like to interact with others, and hated others coming close to his territory.

Therefore, when the mage first came, he had several conflicts with the Jango tribe and some monsters in the rain forest.

After several rounds of fierce fighting, the mage won the final victory.

Later, no one wanted to get close to this place, especially the spiritual beasts in the rain forest.

That mage disappeared about three years ago. Some people speculated that he was dead, while others speculated that he was just away for a long time. But no matter what, the Bitter Water Swamp was vacated.

It's just that due to the traps and intimidation left by the mage, there hasn't been a large monster colony here yet.

The high ground in front of us is made up of the corpses of the earth giants summoned by the mage in a battle.

In addition to the terrain factor, I chose this place mainly because of two factors. First, the mage is still a deterrent to rainforest creatures, which may be able to filter out some enemies for you;

Second, if the situation is really critical, I suggest you try to escape deep into the swamp. Of course, this is a road to death. "

Matthew instantly heard the implication of Lao Jitou’s words:

"So, that mage is also a necromancer?"

Snapped!

After cutting off the last thorns, Lao Jitou dropped the short knife, took out the dry tobacco from the bag behind his back and sipped it twice, then nodded and continued:

"Yes. The Necromancer was very powerful and extremely evil. He was once the nightmare of the nearby Jango tribe.

Half of his undead army were transformed from rainforest creatures, and the remaining half were Jango people. He even used the corpses of Jango people to make two abominations!

But the Jango people still couldn't do anything to him. In several battles with the Necromancer, they prayed to Quetzalcoatl, dispatched jungle war beasts, and even killed five or six shamans. However, in the end they still couldn't enemy.

If the Necromancer hadn't had the ambition to expand his territory, I'm afraid this rainforest would have changed its name long ago.

In short, I suspect that the necromancer is close to even becoming a legend.

He left many mechanisms and undead in the swamp.

Even if you are also a necromancer, you may have difficulty communicating with the undead.

So don’t venture into the depths of the swamp until the last minute! "

After listening to Lao Jitou's warning.

Matthew said sincerely:

"Thanks."

Lao Jitou waved his hand:

"I'm just a guide. I can't help you much. If a fight breaks out, I'm afraid you'll have to ask for your own blessings."

At this time Luo Lan interrupted:

"It's okay, I'm here to fight. Although I don't know magic and have average martial arts skills, my flute will surprise you!"

As he spoke, he shook the light green flute on his waist.

"Then we'll see."

Matthew smiled and continued to prepare for the upcoming battle.

It is sinking to the west day by day.

The tired bird returns to its nest.

In the sparse cry.

In the jungle on the edge of the highland, there are unknowingly more malicious figures.

"coming."

Matthew reminded in a low voice.

On the side, Lao Jitou looked wary.

Only Luo Lan was still holding a little book-like book, reading it with gusto, and laughing from time to time.

Until I heard Matthew's reminder.

He slowly closed the book and stretched while looking around blankly:

"Where?"

"East."

Matthew said calmly: "It's a group of black-backed jackals, about 8 to 11 in number - is there a dungeon nearby?"

Lao Jitou quickly replied:

"There are some, but not many. The surface exit is also far away from here."

Matthew nodded:

"There are three jungle leopards in the west. They all look like females. Their average level is around level 10."

"There is also a level 11 giant forest anaconda lurking on the banyan tree in the north. It has camouflage colors and I almost didn't recognize it."

Lao Jitou looked at Matthew in surprise:

"Did you use a detection spell?"

With his many years of experience in traveling through the rainforest and his abilities that are suitable for this place, he did not find the giant forest anaconda. However, Matthew, a necromancer, actually discovered it with his naked eyes. How could he not be surprised?

Matthew had no explanation.

In fact, this was what Ella in his arms whispered. The soul of nature is indeed excellent at sensing wild beasts. With Ella, the movements of any creature in the rain forest cannot be hidden from Matthew's eyes.

"It's time to take action."

Matthew noticed the strange movements of the black-backed jackals.

"I'm going to lure away that giant forest anaconda."

Lao Jitou said quickly:

"I'm very experienced in dealing with pythons, you don't have to worry about me."

As he said that, he walked toward the giant python alone.

And the other side.

The black-backed gnolls also seemed to realize that they had been exposed. They no longer covered up and directly surrounded him.

Black-backed gnolls are close relatives of gnolls, but they are much taller than ordinary gnolls. They have sparse black hair and are very muscular, almost as strong as orcs.

This kind of creature is usually active in underground cities and is extremely rare in the rainforest. However, since the other party appeared in this siege, it proves that they are also part of this rainforest and are driven by the soul of the rainforest.

Matthew was not careless. The level of these black-backed gnolls was very high, with an average of over 7 levels per person, and a few level 9 ones. In addition, they were inspired by the bloodthirsty spirit of the jungle soul, and their strength should not be underestimated.

He controlled the skeleton soldiers to go forward to meet the enemy, and the soldier's figure slowly disappeared into the air.

At this moment.

A cheerful flute sound sounded, but it was Luo Lan who started playing with a contented expression.

He played very quickly and skillfully.

In just ten seconds, the short flute sound changed from cheerful and intense to melodious and majestic.

As the sound of the flute changed, buffs were also attached to Matthew one after another.

"Tip: You listened to the "Mountain Ditty" excerpted by Lorraine, and your movement speed was increased;

You listened to an excerpt from Lorraine's composition "Numbly Heart," and your resistance to charm increased;

You listened to an excerpt from Lorraine's song "Song of the Mermaid," and your spellcasting speed was increased."

Ahead, the gnolls were already fighting against the undead. However, the black-backed gnolls' combat power was astonishing. Almost as soon as they made contact, the skeleton soldiers were at a disadvantage and could only struggle to hold on.

At this time, Luo Lan's flute sound became simple and high-pitched.

"Tip: You listened to an excerpt from Lorraine's composition "Ancient Battlefield," and the spells you cast have a slight chance of causing double casting.

You listened to the excerpt of Lorraine's music "Wind Chant", and you obtained a wind shield."

The sound of the flute continued, and a steady stream of buffs hung on Matthew. At this moment, Matthew finally experienced the feeling of being strengthened!

Unfortunately, the undead can only get "Wind Shield", and other buffs are invalid.

And Matthew checked carefully. Although the buff given by Luo Lan lasted a long time, the effect could only be described as "slight".

I don’t know if this is because he didn’t hear the complete piece of music, or because Lorraine’s level is insufficient.

After all, the bard is a late-stage profession, and Matthew doesn't put too much hope in him.

"You step back and find a safe place."

Seeing Luo Lan put down the flute, Matthew took the initiative to remind him.

He originally thought that with the heroic spirit shown by the poet before, he would strongly demand to stay and fight alongside him, and he even thought about how to persuade the other party.

However, after hearing Matthew's words this time, Lorraine actually seemed very obedient.

As if he had accomplished everything he could do, he ran away.

Matthew also saw that he had found a suitable viewing position and was using body movements to cheer himself up in the distance.

"What a strange guy."

Matthew didn't pay attention.

His attention returned to the front.

At this moment, the black-backed gnolls had the absolute upper hand. However, when the figures of the knife dancers began to appear behind them, the battlefield situation changed instantly!

Stab.

A Bing took action, his daggers crossed, and a head fell to the ground!

The other black-backed jackals rushed towards A Bing in fear and anger.

However, A Bing only took half a step back before retreating deeply into the shadows, leaving no trace of the enemy.

Matthew nodded with satisfaction upon seeing this.

But the next moment.

Something happened in the natural affinity!

"Warning: The Soul of the Rainforest is very dissatisfied with your attitude of using summons to kill enemies!

A truly strong person should have the courage to fight himself, rather than pretending to be someone else! "

"Aren't you allowed to use summons?"

Matthew frowned.

also.

Judging from the monsters that have appeared so far, Matthew can handle them himself even without the use of the undead!

So while ordering the undead to move aside, he took out a charged staff from his bag——

Arcane missiles!

Five magic energy balls hit the front of the jackal.

This spell failed to kill him immediately, but knocked him to the ground. The next second, Matthew skillfully fired a hand crossbow at the fallen enemy.

puff!

The crossbow arrow pierced the jackal's chin, and the latter screamed and died tragically on the spot.

"Well, my ejaculation is getting more and more accurate."

Matthew was pleased with his performance.

But at this time.

The feeling of déjà vu resurfaced.

"Warning: The Rainforest Soul is dissatisfied with the way you use items to kill enemies!

A truly strong person should be brave enough to charge into battle instead of using long range insidiously. "

Now Matthew was unhappy.

"Again and again, are you trying to PUA me?"

"You have to force Lailai to kill someone, it's a shame, right?"

This time Matthew simply ignored Rainforest Soul's warning.

Not only did he order the undead to come back to fight again, he also took out the blazing glue and Molotov cocktails from the Miaofa bag.

Two bangs.

Flames exploded.

Several gnolls were struck, and each one screamed and fled in all directions.

Ah Bing, who was lurking in the dark, was already hungry and thirsty. He took the initiative to appear from the shadows, slashed one by one, and began to enter the harvesting mode.

In front of the sword dancer's blade, the black-backed gnolls were quickly defeated and eventually the entire army was annihilated.

The three jungle leopards that appeared before seemed more alert. They only walked around the edge of the battlefield twice. After realizing that there was no chance, they retreated and left.

After a while.

Matthew began to collect the gnoll's body.

At this time, the figure of Lao Jitou emerged from the rain forest.

"Where's the giant anaconda?"

Matthew greeted from a distance.

"He followed me for a while and then ran away."

Lao Jitou answered loudly.

But at this time.

The expression on his face changed drastically, and Matthew also heard Ella’s exclamation:

"Matthew, run, there's something wrong with the tree on the right!"

The words have not yet finished.

The dead tree that seemed to have been lying on the ground from the beginning suddenly sprang up!

The huge body of the forest giant anaconda instantly formed a huge shadow on Matthew.

At this time, the moon has risen high and the moonlight is bright.

The giant anaconda pounced on Matthew fiercely, entangled him in layers with its slippery body, and vowed to hang him to death in an instant.

But the moment it pounced.

Matthew's body began to expand uncontrollably!

"Roar!"

In the horrified eyes of the giant anaconda and Lao Jitou, a brown bear that seemed to be radiating moonlight appeared out of thin air!

Snapped!

The moon bear grabbed the forest anaconda's head and smashed it to the ground.

The soft moonlight shines on the moon bear, adding many attributes to him.

boom!

boom!

boom!

Matthew just pressed the giant anaconda’s head and smashed it to death!

The latter didn't even have a chance to resist, so his head was smashed and he lost his life.

"The enemies in the first round were relatively easy."

After looking around and seeing no other enemies, Matthew put away his transformation.

next moment.

A furious voice sounded in Matthew's heart:

"How dare you ignore my warning?!"

Matthew knew that this was the externalization of the Rainforest Soul's will.

He thought for a moment and decided to push back unceremoniously:

"You can send people here, but who to kill first and how to kill is my business!"

The Rainforest Soul said angrily:

"You have offended the soul of this jungle, I will not let you get out of here alive!"

Matthew also changed from his previous gentleness and modesty, and even tried to make his tone full of violent emotions:

"It's up to you to kill as many as you want!"

"Send your strongest men as much as possible and let them come to me to die. Even if they don't come to me, I will come and kill them - it's a pity that you don't have a physical body, otherwise I will kill you too! "

Rainforest Soul no longer replies.

After a while.

"Tip: Your toughness and cruelty have won the respect of the soul of the rainforest, and the time you can be attacked by beasts and monsters in the rainforest is shortened to three days!"

really.

Matthew thought to himself that the soul of the rainforest and the devil were the same thing.

He just felt that he couldn't just obey the other party's persecution, but he didn't expect that his clumsy violent performance actually gained the other party's respect.

this moment.

He finally understood Zeller's helplessness.

In some situations, it's hard to be a good person.

But the next second.

The smile that had just appeared on Matthew's face stiffened again.

"Warning: The Soul of the Rainforest has raised your danger rating. In the next three days, it will no longer restrain itself and will go all out. It will mobilize its most powerful subordinates to besiege you!

Caution! "

"It seems that imitating the character of Rainforest Soul is useful, but not completely useful."

Matthew touched his chin, smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Matthew Matthew!"

"Go and take a look, there seems to be something in that big snake's belly!"

Ella reminded as she flew over from the side.

Matthew went over immediately.

I found that one part of the giant anaconda's belly was indeed bulging high.

At this moment, Lao Jitou also came over. The two looked at each other. Lao Jitou raised his knife and chopped open the belly of the giant anaconda in three strokes.

Grunt.

A humanoid object filled with the stench of corruption rolled out.

Matthew took a closer look.

Found out it was a zombie.

There is also a shining nameplate hanging on the zombie's neck.
