A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees Chapter 110

  Chapter 110 Preemptive attack

  People from the Silver Frost Brotherhood showed up to make trouble, which did not exceed Matthew's expectations.

  Because he had done his homework beforehand, Matthew didn't think the ashes creatures were so troublesome. He deliberately recruited so many people to prevent potential attacks by evil organizations.

   As of now, the significance of the scar of the dead has become obvious.

  It is a tentacle of Yuklus, the master of the void, and Yuklus is the "great existence" believed by the Scourge Cult. The latter is committed to recovering all traces of Yuklus in the main material world.

  The purpose of the war that Warlock Edson launched against Rolling Stone Town was not to destroy Rolling Stone Town, but to use the war to create a large number of deaths near the Scar of the Dead.

  From this point of view, the goal of the Scourge Church has been achieved.

  They successfully activated the Scar of the Dead, making it enter the recovery period from the sleeping period, which is a necessary prerequisite for the accelerated expansion of the Scar of the Dead.

   It is also the root cause of the Ash Lord's revenge when Matthew took one more look.

  That war gave Dead Scar a lot of power.

   And the dozen carts of the Silver Frost Brotherhood just now also played a role in fueling the flames.

   "It seems that after the Scourge was accidentally injured, it was the Brotherhood of Silver Frost who took over the banner of Yuklus."

   Matthew is not surprised by this.

  Although the Scourge Religion is under the banner of believing in Yukrus, the sorcerers in the religion are believers of demons, and they are essentially horsemen of the God of Midnight.

  It is impossible for a believer to serve two great beings at the same time.

  Then there are only two possibilities to explain this—

  The first possibility is that Yuklus and the God of Midnight have reached some kind of agreement, and everyone will play the believers to share that set.

   But this possibility is extremely low.

  The sensitivity of the gods to the infidelity of believers is unimaginable to outsiders.

   Otherwise, Lyra would not have to seek help from Gaelan, Creator of the Dusk, to escape the wrath of the Midnight God.

  So Matthew is more inclined to the second possibility.

   That is, the power group composed of the God of Midnight and some gods of Tianlun Palace behind it, is using the power of Yuklus to disrupt the situation.

  Yuklus may know about this, but he also enjoys it and doesn't expose it.

  The two parties reached a shallow tacit understanding.

  Matthew remembers clearly that before Edson launched the war, there were three organizations in the afternoon.

   Scourge Order, Brotherhood of Silver Frost, and Blight Order.

  The former is temporarily cold.

  The other two sects will definitely wait for the opportunity.

  Now that the Brotherhood of Silver Frost has really emerged again, the Wither Order must not be too far away.

   "Fallen Druids are very good at covering their tracks. It's a pity that Eli is not here, otherwise his nose can always smell the smell of the Blighter."

  Although Richard went to deal with the Silver Frost Brotherhood.

  But Matthew still maintains a high degree of vigilance, he misses the arrogant ancient tiger a bit.

   Fortunately, it didn't take long for Rhaegar to urgently mobilize a lord's guard in place.

  Brad stepped on his horse and patrolled along the Scar of the Dead according to Rhaegar's order, sweeping the wasteland, hills and caves on its north and south sides.

  Since the invasion of the underground coalition forces.

  Rega set up a sentry post in this area. At first, it was used to monitor the signs of activities of underground creatures. After they blocked all the nearby caves, this sentry post was used to monitor the increasingly active Scar of the Dead.

  The members of the sentry post are not from the garrison, but Rhaegar's personal guards—the lord's guard. They are the real elite of Rolling Stone Town.

  The official members of the lord's guard are less than 40 in total, but with the followers of each knight, this number will expand to nearly 200 people.

  Matthew has always been curious.

  In Rolling Stone Town, a place where wars almost never happen, how much does it cost Rhaegar to raise such an army, and how does he maintain the combat effectiveness of these knights?

  Theoretically, if an army loses blood for a long time, no matter how well trained it is, it will gradually soften or even degenerate.

  But Matthew didn't notice this sign in the knights of the lord's guard.

   Tuk Tuk Tuk!

  The sound of horseshoes sounded.

  Looking at the backs of the knights going away, Matthew breathed a sigh of relief.

  The pressure in his heart has been relieved a lot, and it is also the task of guarding Rolling Stone Town alone.

   In this regard, Rega showed an unprecedented and unprecedented positive attitude.

  Just as the knights were ordered to die, Rhaegar climbed to the oak tree to observe the situation in the distance when he was exhausted.

  If this was changed to the rainforest, the old man probably didn't even open the cap of the sword oil bottle!

   "Matthew, that big guy is here!"

   Rhaegar shouted from the top of the tree.

   Matthew looked up, and he could hear the low moaning of the oak branches, so he shouted:

   "Be careful, don't stand too high."

  Rega seems to be steadily grasping the branches, with a disapproving expression on his face:

   "What is this? In purgatory, I even climbed the devil tree!"

  Seeing this, Matthew had to let him go.

  His gaze focused on the new big guy in the Scar of the Dead.

   "Ash Warrior".

   This thing is as tall as two people, and its body is more than twice as burly as the Ash pawn, but its other aspects of clothing are similar to the pawn.

  He was holding a huge meteor hammer in his hand, and the end of the meteor hammer kept dropping sparks.

   This guy is very cunning.

  It didn't leave the Scar of the Dead immediately, but just walked back and forth near the end.

  It will wave the meteor hammer in the air from time to time.

   That moment.

  Sparks and ash are thrown out in large quantities.

  They sank into the nearby ground, and the color of the ground immediately became scorched black.

  After a few times.

   That piece of land became part of the Scar of the Dead!

During this period.

  The oak tree that Matthew planted closest to the Scar of the Dead was also swallowed by the Scar of the Dead.

  He watched as the originally vibrant oak tree turned into a scorched black thing like the land it took root in.

   An indescribable pain in my heart!

  Looking at the Ash Warrior.

  Matthew's eyes were full of killing intent.

   "You don't want to venture into the Scar of the Dead and kill this ash creature?"

"For living people, this is not a wise move. I know several people who have entered the scar of the dead. Although they were fine at the time because of their youth and strong physique, after a few years, they had seizures. He suffered from all kinds of strange diseases, although he would not die, but he still lived a very painful life."

  Old Faron suddenly said.

  Matthew nodded, calming down a little.

He knew that what Old Fallon said was right. The Scar of the Dead has a powerful predatory ability, which is a characteristic of the Ashes Domain. Even if it is only a short time together, some elements in the body may be deprived. These elements are the components of human life. The important jigsaw puzzle is indispensable.

   He must not enter the Scar of the Dead unless necessary.

  However, the ashen warrior has been hiding inside and not coming out, quietly expanding the scope of the scar of the dead, which is also unacceptable to Matthew.

  The distance between the two sides is a bit far, far beyond the casting distance. Even if the magic can hit the Ash Warrior, the effect will be greatly reduced after exceeding the exhaustion radius.

  Matthew looked at Old Fallon:

   "Do you have any countermeasures against that big guy?"

  Old Faron smiled:

   "I'm just a retired veteran, so I can't help you much, but I seem to have noticed that you have a new undead? It looks extraordinary."

   While speaking, his eyes kept drifting towards Renee Smee.

   Matthew's heart moved, and he introduced:

   "Her name is Renee Smee, and she is an archer."

  Old Faron showed such an expression as expected:

"I knew it, I saw the shadow of an old person in her, of course, that old person is not undead. I think she is very talented, and she may become a powerful zombie archer in the future. It just so happens that I have a Take a good bow, do you want to try it?"

  Matthew's eyelids twitched.

   didn't wait for him to refuse.

  Old Faron actually conjured up a long and narrow wooden box.

Snapped!

  The box was opened, and a faint green light flashed. Immediately afterwards, Matthew saw a simple longbow with three green leaves hanging on it.

   Matthew couldn't help but grabbed the bow in his hand.

  「Reminder: You have obtained the "Emerald Trade Wind" (Elf Longbow/Archer Exclusive Weapon)

  Emerald Trade Wind (Perception +1): Normal range is 800 meters, high-precision range is 400 meters.

  Enchanting Skill-Wind Tornado: Consume a lot of stamina, you will shoot an arrow wrapped in wind element, the arrow will hit the enemy like a normal arrow, and create four tornadoes in the hit area.

  Special Arrows-Trade Wind Kiss: Call the name of the wind element lord Natara, and you will get 12 sharp arrows made of wind elements at one time. The trade wind kiss can hit targets as far as 1200 meters away.

  Can be used three times a day.

  The remaining arrows:

  1. White feather arrow/piercing arrow (recommended).

  2. Magic Arrow (not recommended/unless it is the field of wind element).

  3. Metal arrows (recommended depending on the situation within 100 meters).

  4. Hit the sky (special arrows for emerald trade winds, highly recommended). "

  「Your summoned Renee Smee has a great desire for the "Emerald Trade Wind".

   Renee Smee's loyalty to you has increased to 83!

   Renee Smee shared her ability with you: making and maintaining arrows. "

   I don't know when, Miss Zombie has come over.

  She looked helplessly at the bow and arrow in Matthew's hand, drooling all over the floor.

  The old fox next to him smiled and persuaded:

   "Let her try it. It doesn't cost money to try it. Besides, you want to protect Rolling Stone Town. For this reason, whether it is buying or renting, I will give you a discount in the end."

   Matthew suddenly had a feeling of being fooled.

   But he still couldn't hold back, and handed the Emerald Trade Wind into the hands of Renee Smee.

  As soon as the latter got it, she immediately drew a beautiful bow flower. In the next second, Matthew didn't even hear her make a sound, and an arrow made of wind elements suddenly appeared on the emerald trade wind bowstring!

  In this scene, even Old Fallon showed a surprised expression.

  Renice Mei held the jadeite trade wind in her hand, and at that moment, her whole temperament was completely different.

  From a stupid undead, it seems that he has suddenly transformed into a calm and calm master of bow and arrow.

  She turned to the northeast, only aimed for a few seconds, and then slowly let go of her stiff fingers.

   Hum!

  The bowstring made a pleasant trembling sound.

  The trade wind kiss elegantly drew a parabola in mid-air.

   Finally hit the ashen warrior's chest accurately!

   Poof!

   After a crisp sound.

  The ashes warrior also turned into sparks like the ashes pawn.

the difference is.

  While the Ash Warrior was wiped out, a tiny crystal fell from his original direction.

   Next second.

  A vigorous figure suddenly jumped out of the shadows. He quickly crossed the Scar of the Dead as if being ejected by a slingshot, grabbed the crystal with quick eyes and hands, and then disappeared into the material world again.

   A few blinks.

   A Bing appeared next to Matthew.

  He handed the crystal to Matthew respectfully.

  「Reminder: Your summoned Renee Smee killed the Ember Warrior!

   Continuing Duty of Duty in effect.

   Your summoned soldier, Bing, picked up the soul crystal dropped by Ash Warrior! "

  Soul crystal?

  Ash Warriors will drop soul crystals?

  Matthew suddenly lit up his eyes.

  He put the soul crystal in his hand and looked at it carefully, and found that it was similar to the one he condensed, and even higher in purity!

  Matthew knew very well what high-purity soul crystals meant to the undead.

If the soul fire of the undead is the source of their lifespan and power, then ordinary soul crystals are things that can prolong the burning time of soul fires, and high-purity soul crystals are treasures that have the chance to transform their life forms !

  Under such circumstances, Ah Bing was able to hold back, and diligently completed his work.

  This made Matthew Long Yan very happy.

  He is short of soul crystals.

   Not only now, but also in the foreseeable future. With more and more undead under Matthew's hands, the soul crystal will definitely become a problem that troubles him in the near future.

  It is too slow to rely on self-production.

  Matthew's meditation time and efficiency are limited.

   But the needs of the undead are endless.

   Blindly reducing costs will only lead to diminishing marginal utility.

   Of course Matthew understands this, but he just suffered from not having a stable channel to obtain soul crystals.

   Now discover the gem of an ember creature.

   Of course he won't miss it!

  If they have the ability, who wouldn't want to feed their undead to make them stronger?

  At the moment, Matthew immediately formulated a strategy.

   Renee Smee shoots.

   A Bing is responsible for picking up.

  The two belong to a state of cooperation, and they can each get 10% of the soul crystals captured in the end.

Although Renee Smee is still dumb, and her mind is estimated to be less than three or five years old, Matthew feels that he is not worried about the few but the uneven. What kind of treatment did he give A Bing? In the future, he should try his best to deal with other undead. on par.

  As long as he works hard and makes a small profit, he is happy to give it up.

   Four or five hours passed in a blink of an eye.

  Matthew summed up the current law of Mark of the Dead—

  Without additional stimulation.

  Currently only Ash Pawns and Ash Warriors will spawn.

  The former refresh every three minutes, and rush out after refreshing. They are completely unafraid of death. Of course, they can indeed be resurrected after death.

  The latter is refreshed every half an hour, and after the refresh, it will be wretched at the end of the scar of the dead. The meaning of this kind of ashes life is probably to accelerate the expansion of the scar of the dead.

  Fortunately, Renesmee's archery skills are extremely stable. Even if he replaced the white feather arrows used by the lord's guard later, he would have killed the Ash Warrior in seconds at most with three arrows.

   In this way, Matthew couldn't help giving birth to the cognition that life in ashes seems to be as brittle as a piece of paper.

   Renee Smey and A Bing cooperate with each other.

   Plus a large number of zombies and skeleton guardians.

   Not only the oak forest is safe and sound.

  The ashes creature couldn't even get out of the house when it was blocked!

   The only regrettable thing is.

   Not every Ash Warrior drops soul crystals.

  Matthew also greedily thought of:

   "Do you want Scar of the Dead to absorb a little more life elements, so as to produce more Ash Warriors?"

   Then he was taken aback by his own thought, and the temperance domain automatically opened.

  Matthew clearly realized that the ashes creatures are definitely not that simple. This is just the first batch sent by the ashes lord, and there is a high probability that the latter will become stronger and stronger.

  The idea of ​​throwing more life elements at the enemy in order to collect soul crystals is very dangerous.

  Any action that makes the enemy an idiot may end up making yourself look more like an idiot.

   Matthew calmed down completely.

at this time.

  Old Faron also walked over relaxedly, he smiled and complimented:

   "It seems that you can protect Rolling Stone Town by yourself. You are really young and promising."

   Matthew was secretly startled when he saw the old fox's smile.

   Renee Smee's fascination with the emerald trade winds is deeply in the eyes of Old Fallon.

  In this situation, it is impossible for Matthew to take back the jadeite trade wind, so he can only bite the bullet and ask:

   "How much does it cost to rent?"

  The value of this elven longbow obviously exceeds that of A Bing's pair of short knives.

  He didn't even think about buying it.

   Before Old Faron could speak, Rega, who had already jumped down from the tree, complained:

   "This old man was a romantic and handsome man when he was young, but now he has become a vampire who only recognizes money. Time is indeed the biggest murderer to destroy a man."

  Old Faron looked at Rhaegar angrily:

   "If your big sword was as strong as your mouth, you should have killed that viper with one sword, and now I don't have to worry about money all day long."

  Hearing this, the smile on Rhaegar's face disappeared instantly:

   "You are right, it is my fault, I should kill it with a sword."

  Old Faron saw Rhaegar's expression, and guilt also appeared on his face:

"No, I was wrong. I was the one who was closer at the time, and I should have been the one to kill it. But I didn't know why at the time, I was drained of all my courage, and I stepped back a few steps, so the beast Venom spewed—that was all my problem, and I shouldn't be timid."

  Rega shook his head:

   "We were all pretty close. At that time, you, me, and Eric, but only Eric rushed forward bravely. He is a real warrior. Unfortunately..."

   Both were silent for a while.

  Seeing this, Matthew tried to change the subject and asked:

   "Then how much does this bow cost?"

  The sadness on Old Faron's face instantly dissipated:

   "Buy it for a one-time discount, 3,500 gold coins!"

  Matthew almost popped his eyes out.

  3500?

  The price he estimated in his mind was around 1500!

  Old Faron said again:

"3500 is just the price of the Emerald Trade Wind itself. In fact, I have 12 special arrows here that are specially used to match this bow: Hitting the Sky. If you are sure to buy it, I can sell it to you at a lower price. Get 40 gold coins. Trust me, these special arrows won't disappoint you."

  Matthew sighed deeply:

   "I'm sorry, old Mr. Fallon, I'm afraid I've let you down with my purse."

   However, Old Faron introduced it affectionately:

"Do you think it's expensive? But in fact, the value of this bow itself is amazing. Its previous owner was Tyrast of Jade Cangting, the famous Grand Marshal of the Windchaser, and Tyrast loved it when he was young. Bow and arrow soon became a well-known marksman in the world.

  He once shot a dragon with this bow!

   Not long after, Telast fell madly in love with an elf girl, and gave her the Emerald Trade Wind as a token of love.

  However, that girl didn't love him. In order to explicitly reject Terraste's love, she gave me the emerald trade wind.

   Since then, this treasure has been kept in my hands.

  I spent a good time with that elf girl named Nila, but unfortunately, we couldn't get together in the end.

  Under the pressure of the traditional ethics of the elves, Nila finally returned to Jade Cangting. At the urging of her parents, she married Telast, and it is said that she had a child with him.

   Not long after, Nila passed away because of depression.

   Later, I went to Jade Cang Court once. I originally wanted to seek the secret recipe from the elves to cure the poison of the Purgatory Viper, but I was almost beaten to death by the Windchasers.

From then on.

  I never saw Terraste again.

  I heard that after Nila's death, he completely gave up bow and arrow, and switched to elven sword chant, with some success.

   can nevertheless.

   This emerald trade wind still means a lot to Terraste.

  Although he didn't come to find the bow himself, he sent his son Telani to Rolling Stone Town.

  He was almost cut out of the same mold as his mother Nila.

   But I still turned him down.

  Because he couldn't give me the price I wanted.

  If you buy this bow, it may be exchanged for the friendship of the Grand Marshal of the Windchaser when it is no longer needed in the future, and his son Telani is said to be a big figure in the Windchaser now.

  Believe me, the benefits that this Emerald Trade Wind can bring you will definitely exceed your expectations! "

  Old Faron's voice was like the whisper of a demon.

   Hitting Matthew's heart step by step.

   Half a minute later.

  Matthew suddenly looked up at Rhaegar:

   "I bought Emerald Trade Wind to arm the undead under my command to resist the invasion of the Scar of the Dead. This should be a major event related to the safety of the whole town. The lord should have something to say?"

  Rega warned vigilantly:

"what you up to?"

  Ma Xiu said boldly:

   "This is a business expense, and it should be reimbursed by public funds. I can temporarily spend a sum of money to buy the Emerald Trade Wind, but soon, I will apply for reimbursement."

  Rega confidently said:

   "Apply whatever you want, if I don't pass it, it's over."

  Matthew calmly said:

   "It doesn't matter, I will find Zeller."

  The smile on Rhaegar's face disappeared immediately.

  Matthew turned around and said to Old Faron confidently:

   "I bought it, the full price, and the twelve special arrows too!"

   As he spoke, he took out a large sum of money and handed it over.

  Rega felt that something was wrong and asked:

   "Where did you get so much money?"

  Matthew coughed:

   "In order to protect Rolling Stone Town, I temporarily embezzled the public funds of the Oak Chamber of Commerce, isn't it too much?"

  After the episode.

   Rega weakly pointed to the scar of the dead and asked:

   "This thing has been hanging next to our town. It is always an unstable factor. Although your undead can resist their invasion, it is not a long-term solution. What are your plans next?"

  Matthew pondered and said:

   "I have an immature idea."

  Rega said:

   "You said that as long as the hidden danger of the Mark of the Dead can be solved, the whole town of Rolling Stone will fully cooperate."

  Matthew said:

   "I have observed that if Scar of the Dead wants to develop and grow, it must constantly devour the elements of life.

  Every part of the space we live in actually contains a large number of life elements, but the earth has the most life elements.

  The vital land is the vehicle for the expansion of Scar of the Dead.

  It will continue to plunder the vitality of the land in order to continuously expand.

  From this point of view.

  I plan to hold a taboo ceremony near the Scar of the Dead, to drain the vitality of the nearby land first, so as to artificially create a wasteland of death as a buffer.

  Since the essence of the expansion of Scar of the Dead lies in the plundering of life elements.

   So as long as we act first, doesn't it have nothing to loot? "
