The necromancer just wants to plant trees

…

In a hotel room that is not very spacious.

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Lumiere began to regret it. He just didn't understand the outside world, but he wasn't really ignorant of the world.

So he quickly explained:

"No, that's not what I meant. I'm just not very good at expressing myself in common language. Don't get me wrong."

As he spoke, he also said a few words in Aboriginal language.

"In short, Matthew is normal. Madam, you can rest assured."

Lumière specifically emphasized to Bobo——

In his opinion, two people sharing a room at night must have a close relationship.

Bobo's eyes lit up when he heard this:

"Can you tell I'm a lady?"

Seeing that the topic had been changed, Lumiere immediately said with a smile:

"It's obvious."

Bobo proudly puffed up his chest and looked at Matthew:

"Look, it's not my problem that someone has poor eyesight. There are still many discerning people in this world."

Matthew smiled bitterly.

His perception is actually quite keen, but it cannot be compared with a fifth-level boss like Lumiere.

At that moment, he exchanged a few words with Lumiere.

While talking, Lumiere had an idea and said that he was empty after traveling all day and hoped that the two of them could get him something to eat.

Matthew saw that the night was dark and it was estimated that Lumiere would not be able to find another shelter for a while, so he looked at Bobo with a questioning look.

Due to his ability to accurately identify his own female characteristics, Bobo's impression of Lumière has greatly changed.

She nodded coolly at Matthew.

So the next moment, Matthew smiled and led Lumiere into his private room.

After the two went in, they didn't come out for a long time.

Bobo, who was woken up in the middle of the night and lost his sleep, was left bored and had no choice but to wipe his armor again.

…

The next morning.

Matthew calmly walked into a magic supplies store in the North Trade District.

He wanted to replenish some supplies for his trip to Dalong Lake, the most critical of which was the "underwater breathing potion."

After the user drinks this potion, two pairs of gills will form on the skin on both sides of the neck, thus gaining the ability to breathe underwater at will.

Underwater breathing potion is a potion that is widely used and spread. Although the production habits and processes vary from place to place, the effects are often the same.

Matthew was not worried about not being able to buy good medicine, he was just worried that the price would be too expensive.

The working capital he had on hand was far from enough to squander freely.

However, after Matthew walked around in this store called "Desert Light", he almost couldn't hold back his excitement and joy!

He came to the counter and asked calmly:

"How to sell underwater breathing potions?"

The shop owner's wife is a hobgoblin wearing pince-nez and immersed in knitting a sweater.

Her figure is much taller than that of ordinary goblins, but she is still only about 2/3 the size of a human.

When she heard Matthew's question, she immediately put down her knitting rack and introduced her gently:

"A set of 12 gold coins, it's written on the label."

Her common language is very standard, and except for her appearance, she seems to be no different from a human woman.

Matthew pretended to be casual and asked:

"12 gold coins? Why is it this price?"

The female hobgoblin replied slowly:

"Does the customer find it expensive? This is already the result of the price reduction. Underwater breathing potions have always had a stable sales volume, not to mention that they are made by the Deep Sea Naga and their quality is trustworthy.

To be honest, the price of this medicine was originally going to increase - the Nagas had always felt that they were selling it too cheaply, but as soon as they proposed the idea of ​​increasing the price, civil strife broke out within themselves.

It is said that it was due to jealousy, and the object was a great poet.

Well, the magic craftsmen of the Naga tribe have also been divided into several factions, and there is no way to increase the price.

And in order to seize the market, our store also lowered some prices yesterday.

If you can buy more, I can give you a discount.

The discount is not much, just to express my gratitude for your support of the "Eternal Night" tribe. "

Matthew took an underwater breathing potion from the shelf and found that the label of the "Eternal Night" tribe was indeed stuck on the back.

At this moment, his heart suddenly became enlightened.

"No wonder they are sold so cheaply. It turns out that foreign products have flooded into the market. The original monopoly of mages and a small number of alchemists has been destroyed. Naga's goods are not only cheap but also effective. The local mages may not be able to eat this bowl at all. It’s time to eat.”

"Also, how come you can hear news about Lorraine wherever you go?"

Matthew was amused.

He thought about it in his mind for a while, then with a wave of his hand, he bought 20 sets of underwater breathing potions and 10 sets of the more effective "Frogman Potion" priced at 18 gold coins.

This way.

He only had more than 100 gold left in cash.

But Matthew didn't panic at all.

You only need to transport this batch of potions to the big cities near Rolling Stone Town: White Rock City, Jade Cangting, Rapids City... you can sell them for more than 8 times the price anywhere!

This profit is too exaggerated.

Matthew wished he could build a portal in Cordo City and run business back and forth every day!

But the portal is obviously unrealistic, and the cost of ultra-long-distance transmission can easily wipe out the profit of the dealer.

The idea of ​​running a business seems to only exist in fantasy.

"Wait, there is no chance at all. I can find a safe spot in the wild and build a shrine to the Moonlight Goddess."

Matthew thought thoughtfully about possible strategies.

In his view, Moon Grove is actually a potential springboard for long-distance freight transportation.

It's a pity that the southernmost end of Asiya's divine power has not yet reached Zeshui City.

A high-level favored person like Ella can return to the Moonglade under the moonlight anywhere in the main material world, but being able to go back does not mean that you can come back. If there is no shrine or altar as a coordinate anchor, return The moonlight in Moonglade is destined to be just a one-way ticket.

Matthew seriously considered the feasibility of building a shrine in Cordo City.

The geographical location of Cordo City is actually very advantageous.

It is the central section of the North Shore of the Gold Coast and has a large flow of people both by sea and land.

At the same time, it is located in the center of four terrains——

To the north are mountains, including Ergao Xiong Peak and the Millennium Mountains. The latter is a natural barrier that stretches nearly a thousand miles, cutting the vast land in the south into two parts, east and west.

The Millennium Mountains is a dangerous place that makes many advanced adventurers hate themselves. In addition to the terrifying and dangerous terrain, the mountains are also evenly distributed with eagle people, air elements, mountain giants, green-footed dragon snakes, salamander people, ghosts, The habitat of red-robed monsters, etc., is said to have active traces of liches and dusk creations, which is in short very dangerous;

To the south is the sea, which is the Arun Inland Sea. The port of Cordo City is very large, which is very suitable for doing business with Naga, the overlord of the deep sea;

To the east is the rainforest, ruled by the Jango people;

To the west is the endless Baiyang Desert, which contains a large number of oases. These oases feed 99% of the desert population. The businessmen of Cordo City are willing to do business in the oases, but later someone claimed that people living in the Baiyang Desert He is an adult blue dragon who always likes to rob people on the road.

Gradually, the commercial road that crossed the desert and connected the oasis became deserted.

Not to mention the large highway that runs from east to west along the coastline, the geographical superiority of Cordo City is already evident.

"When Ella comes back from her long rest in the Moonglade this time, ask her about how to make offerings to the shrine!"

Matthew secretly made up his mind.

The mind is set.

While the goblin proprietress was packing the goods, Matthew asked casually:

"Are you knitting sweaters for your family? But the weather in Cordo City is so hot, I'm afraid you can't wear them, right?"

The other party smiled and replied:

"My son Quint is working as a pioneer for the Black Dragon Lord in the frozen city in the north. I haven't seen him for many years. This year I received a letter from him saying that he has a child. My husband and I plan to save a Money so I can go visit them."

"This sweater is knitted for my little grandson who I haven't met yet. For this purpose, I learned some exquisite skills from the Sioux people next door."

Matthew took the packed prop box and after confirming it was correct, he greeted the proprietress and left.

It can be seen that the hobgoblins have lived in human society for a long time and have basically been assimilated. They also value the things that humans value, and human customs have gradually become their customs.

When dealing with them, one can indeed ignore their race to a certain extent.

Leave the store.

Lumière followed immediately.

After barely getting over it last night, Lumiere had been thinking about excuses.

Until now, his thoughts were finally clear. He decided to stay with Matthew first. After gaining the other party's trust, he would then find a way to lure him back to the rainforest without disturbing the other party.

So he said to Matthew:

“Since I advanced, my path to legend has also begun.

My instinct told me it was outside the rainforest, so I left the rainforest.

It's just that I'm too unfamiliar with the outside world, and the smell on your body happened to impress me, so I walked over without knowing it.

I actually don’t know what to do next. I am curious and a little afraid of the outside world. Maybe this is the adaptation period.

Matthew, if I could, could I be with you during this time?

Don't worry, I won't live and eat for free. I'm very capable and can do anything you ask me to do. "

After hearing this, Matthew looked regretful:

"Is that so? Lumiere, I'm happy to help you. But unfortunately, I'm afraid I won't be able to go with you during the next period of time."

Lumiere asked in silence:

"Why!?"

Matthew said with great regret:

"Because I'm going into the rainforest next, and your legendary path lies outside the rainforest, so I'm afraid we have to part ways."

With that said, he walked towards the direction of the hotel.

Lumiere was left alone, dumbfounded.

…

Returning to the guest room, Matthew smelled a burning smell.

Looking down, the little man was sitting on the floor, meticulously playing with a tile.

"Where did you get the bricks?"

Matthew asked curiously.

"When the artificer is injecting items, it is best not to distract him to avoid causing an explosion tragedy."

Bobo didn't even raise his head, and his tone was cold.

after awhile.

Matthew saw the brick begin to glow red crazily. His eyelids twitched and he was about to retreat. Fortunately, the red light subsided after an instant, but there was a violent smell inside the brick.

…

"Hint: Your artificer friend Bobo successfully created a brick bomb!"

…

Matthew's expression changed:

"Are you making a bomb?"

Bobo snorted softly:

"if not?"

"I can't just go out and take risks with a bomb on my back. That would be too insecure. How can an artificer go out so perfunctorily?"

Matthew said solemnly:

"You promised me you wouldn't blow up the tomb!"

Bobo looked at him doubtfully:

"Yeah!"

"But what about the outer perimeter, the tomb passage, and the blind monsters? Don't you use bombs?"

Matthew rubbed his temples, and he suddenly understood Yu Lian's behavior yesterday.

"It's not that bombs can't be used, but there aren't that many occasions where they're used."

As if coaxing a child, he said softly:

"My summons and spells are enough to deal with most situations, not to mention we have strong support. The man you saw yesterday, although his behavior was a little weird, he was actually pretty good and very strong."

"Just take this brick, there's no need to make more."

After hearing this, the expression on Bobo's face remained unchanged, but two antennas suddenly erected on both sides of the helmet, with a slight red light flashing at the top of the antennas.

"What does it mean?"

Matthew stared hard at the antenna.

"It means I'm very happy."

Bobo replied coldly.

Immediately her voice became a little shy again:

"If you can promise me one thing, I can change the red light that symbolizes happiness into a happier yellow light."

Matthew asked:

"What's up?"

"Can I touch that of yours?"

Bobo raised his head and opened his big eyes filled with desire.

She pointed to Matthew’s right hand and said:

"It's this glove. I can feel the wonderful power it exudes. There is a kind of terror that destroys everything, and it is exciting. Let me touch it, and I won't argue with you."

Matthew realized that this was the negative energy emitted by the pale hand, causing part of the glove to be eroded.

In the eyes of artificers, everything can be infused, and item infusion is their most basic professional ability.

Each item will have different reactions after being poured into it, and of course the most likely one will explode.

If Bobo wanted something ordinary, that would be fine. This glove is a first-rate dangerous item.

So Matthew shook his head and refused:

"Sorry, this glove is related to my privacy and I can't give it to you."

"oh."

Bobo's little face immediately fell down, and the red light on the antenna became even more dazzling.

Seeing this, Matthew quickly took out a biscuit from his bag and handed it over: "How about you try this?"

Bobo glanced at the biscuit with some disdain, but still took it.

She placed the biscuit in her palm, and after a slight arcane wave, a burst of blue light appeared on the biscuit!

…

"Tip: Your artificer partner Bobo has item-imbued the biscuit.

Bobo successfully created a magic cookie (20% of mana will be restored instantly after taking it, and the mana standard is taken from the average of third-level mages)."

…

Cookies that turn blue instantly?

Matthew was stunned.

Bobo put the biscuit in his palm and asked Matthew expressionlessly:

"Want it?"

Matthew nodded.

Click.

She stuffed the biscuit into her mouth very quickly, chewed it, and said vaguely provocatively:

"No more!"

Matthew was stunned for a moment, then laughed helplessly.

…

"Hint: You saw through Bobo's trick of "hiding the truth from the truth", and you discovered that Bobo hid the real magic cookie in the palm of her hand."

…

Matthew didn't ask for the cookie.

He knew that although Bobo's thinking was very unique, she was not someone who couldn't communicate. If necessary along the way, she would definitely be willing to use it.

The two prepared for a while.

Lumiere arrived belatedly.

He found Matthew with a troubled face:

"Um, Matthew, I think I may have remembered it wrong. My legendary path seems to be in the rain forest."

Matthew, who had long seen Lumiere's various anomalies, simply got straight to the point:

"Did the Rainforest Soul ask you to come to me?"

Lumiere was shocked, but soon he said with relief:

"You guessed it yourself, so you can't blame me, right? It's indeed a task assigned by the Soul of the Rainforest, and I can't understand it either."

Then he described in detail the mission he received from Little Momonga.

Matthew smiled after hearing this:

"It's okay, just stay with me."

No matter what Rainforest Soul has in mind.

Now Ma Xiu is going to the dangerous Dalong Lake to rob tombs - no, looking for an opportunity to advance, how can he not accept the fifth-level macho man who comes to his door?

…

After lunch, the three of them left Cordo City and headed towards the rainforest.

When they left Cordo City, they also encountered a few ruffians with evil looks.

Unfortunately, before they could get close, Bobo punched each one with the thunder glove and sent them flying away.

Many people present saw this scene.

So the subsequent journey became very comfortable.

Nothing happened until we entered the rainforest.

It is safer once you enter the rainforest.

Lumière is a true son of the rainforest, and Matthew's "Suya's joy" has not yet expired.

The two go hand in hand.

Let Bobo have the illusion that this rainforest is quite safe.

A day and a half later.

The group arrived at Dalong Lake.

However, before he got close, Lumiere said seriously:

"There were sounds of fighting!"

The three of them walked forward quietly.

After a while, two groups of people were found fighting on the bank of Dalong Lake.

There were forty or fifty of these people in total, all of them were of low rank, and none of them looked like good people.

"It's the Wind Sand Thieves Group and the Natural Disaster Cult!"

Among the three of them, it was Bobo who had the most sufficient intelligence.

She excitedly took out the big bomb from her backpack:

"What do you mean, do you want to break up the fight?"

Matthew shook his head.

He led the two of them around the main battlefield where the two sides were fighting, and approached the bank of Dalong Lake from another angle.

Then he took out three frogman potions and signaled that he was ready to enter the water.

Both Lumiere and Matthew took the potion. Soon, gills grew on their necks, and their leg strength was greatly strengthened. They could jump out of the water with just a slight push. Far!

Only Bobo refused to take the medicine.

She came to the shore with a bounce, jumped up, and sank into the water quickly like an iron lump.

Matthew and the two quickly followed.

After entering the water, the two of them got used to it for a while, but found that they had lost track of Bobo.

After a while.

A strong current suddenly burst out of the water.

Matthew took a closer look.

But at some point, Bobo's helmet face had a glass cover.

Her pair of steel boots, which looked very heavy, were blowing air backwards.

She hooked her fingers from Matthew and the other two, and sank suddenly.

The two quickly followed.

However, the gap between the two sides is getting wider and wider.

The swimming speed provided by Frogman Potion is already amazing.

But Bobo is like a torpedo impacting at high speed in the water!

Later, probably because they thought the two were swimming too slowly, Bobo floated up from the bottom of the water again, then grabbed the clothes around the necks of the two big men and sank suddenly down.

A few minutes later.

They arrived at the bottom of Dalong Lake.

From a distance, Matthew saw a huge statue. The bottom of the statue was covered by a large amount of white sand, and the top was covered with water plants.

The statue holds a sword in its left hand and a talisman in its right hand, and its facial features are consistent with the image of the Sioux people.

…

"Tip: You discovered the underwater statue of King Mingtan, Knowledge (Giant/Sioux) +10;

Aesthetic +10"

…

"This is it, that's right."

Matthew circled the statue three times and successfully found a secret door at the base.

He took out the guarding poem and activated the spell to decipher the secret door recorded on it.

It was beyond his expectation.

The secret door was unlocked instantly.

The three of them looked at each other, and Matthew was the first to walk in.

After passing through the secret door.

The wet feeling and heavy water pressure disappeared instantly.

What appeared in front of Matthew was a huge underground square.

In the center of the square is a stone tablet with dense tadpole inscriptions.

Behind the stele, there are a dozen smaller stones covered with carvings and paintings.

Matthew walked over and subconsciously placed his hand on the stone tablet.

A surge of information broke into his mind.

…

"Prompt: You have received the inheritance of the Way of Balance. Do you want to continue?"

…

I was a little tired after finishing the big chapter yesterday, so I was a few minutes late. I'm currently correcting typos. I'm sorry, but I'm asking for monthly votes.
