A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees Chapter 123

  Chapter 123 Naga agrees to use it!

   A mushroom hut first appeared in the screen.

  A group of apprentices near the hut look overwhelmed.

   There was a handsome man standing in the middle of the apprentice directing something.

  He seemed approachable.

   Ten seconds later.

  The man led his apprentices to a wasteland. He took out a shovel out of nowhere, and then began to dig holes skillfully.

  The apprentice next to him was concentrating on learning the skills of digging pits.

after awhile.

  The man took out more than 20 shovels and signaled the apprentices to follow their example.

  The screen shakes violently.

   Next second.

  Everyone saw that the man was planting trees, and there were still many apprentices watching.

  At first, the bosses were quite patient, just silently watching the apprentices watching the man plant trees.

   But gradually, the big guy noticed something was wrong.

  Why is it still planting trees after leaving it for a long time?

   All eyes looked at Isabel.

  Isabel held up her hands and pulled back her white hair:

   "Don't look at me, that's how I watched it. Matthew obviously doesn't know how to use a crystal ball, so he recorded a lot of miscellaneous things."

  The bosses have subtle eyes.

  Eckmond reminded:

   "Could you please fast forward?"

  Isabel thought for a while:

   "It is possible, but this crystal ball is the cheapest version, so it may not be easy to use."

  Ekmond breathed a sigh of relief:

"I'll try."

   As he spoke, he stretched out his right index finger, pointed at the crystal ball, and then pulled it.

   Next second.

  The screen cuts to a bird's-eye view.

  They could clearly see an umbrelllike gully at the end of the Scar of the Dead from the air.

   That is the scorched earth of death!

  The screen ends here abruptly.

"it's over?"

  Ekmond said in surprise.

  Isabel nodded:

   "You pulled too much, this is the last scene."

  Among the six phantoms, someone slowly said:

   "Pull back a bit, Ekmond, we need to see the process."

  Ekmond slipped his index finger again, and said confidently:

"no problem!"

   "I can call you whatever you want to see..."

  The reason why I stopped talking so much.

  Because a woman's scream suddenly came from the crystal ball:

   "Ahhh!"

  The voice almost interrupted Ekmond's words.

   And the next picture is also shocking—

  The scene suddenly switched to a dark cellar.

  There are many wine barrels in the background, probably the wine cellar of a tavern.

  In the center of the picture, on the shelf of the wine cellar, a man and a woman are having fun in a strange posture.

  The man's face was tense, and his teeth were clenched.

  The woman's face was twisted, looking very painful.

   "This is Matthew? Why does it seem that his appearance has declined?"

  A phantom asked.

   "It's time for you to change your glasses, Roderick. It's a good thing you didn't take that woman down there for Matthew."

  Another phantom joked.

   Roderick said in amazement:

   "Is that a woman down there?"

   This sentence silenced everyone.

  Isabel looked at the picture with relish, and said:

   "Test your divination skills, Roderick. If your predictions are very accurate, there is really no need to wear glasses."

   Roderick was silent for three seconds, then quickly said:

   "The man's name is Rhaegar, and the woman's name is Jenny.

  The incident took place at a bootleg winery in the artisan district of Rolling Stone Town called Don't Say Goodnight.

  Rega is the lord of Rolling Stone Town, and he and Jenny have maintained an improper lover relationship for a long time.

Jenny's nominal husband is Bliss. On the surface, he is an honest shoemaker. In fact, he is a spy sent by Gao Yeling to Rolling Stone Town. He knew that his wife had an affair with Rhaegar, and he has been holding back about it. The purpose is to In order to build miraculous achievements one day.

Jenny has a bad reputation in Rolling Stone Town. Everyone thinks she is a slut. The reason is that Rhaegar would pretend to be different identities every time she went to have an affair with her. Sometimes a cook, sometimes a groom.

   Later, the rumors about Jenny's willingness to come to the Lord's Mansion became more and more serious. Someone actually touched the door of her house in the middle of the night, but Jenny beat him up and threw him out of the door.

  This woman possesses extraordinary fighting abilities in the mortal world. She also had many admirers, but she just fell in love with Rhaegar. I don't know whether it is luck or misfortune.

   Ah, I said fate..."

  Isabel stretched out her hand and spread her five fingers, motioning for Roderick to stop.

  The reason is also very simple. It's not that she doesn't want to continue to listen to gossip, but that the picture has been quickly dragged by Ekmond to the scorched earth arrangement ceremony of death.

quickly.

  Everyone watched the whole process of Matthew building the umbrella.

"It's that simple?"

  Ekmond looked incredible.

"It's that simple."

  Isabelle said calmly:

   "A scorched earth of death can stop the spread of the Scar of the Dead. You should have thought of it a long time ago. Undead and ashes have always been competing for positions. Necromancers are the best tool to deal with the Scar of the Dead."

  Hearing this sentence, a little reminiscence appeared on Ekmond's face:

   "In fact, we all thought about it back then, but some people overcame all opinions and forcibly terminated the plan to let the necromancer intervene in the scar of the dead."

  Isabel said in surprise:

   "Who did the good thing?"

  Ekmond couldn't help but said:

   "It's you, my lord! Aren't you the one who opposed it the most back then?! You have always claimed that Mordenkain's scalpel is a better solution."

  Isabel said blankly:

"Is it me?"

   Immediately, a trace of anger appeared on her face:

   "Is it because I have a bad memory, and you are planning to blame me for everything?"

  Ekmond was in a hurry:

   "I have evidence!"

  Isabel pondered:

   "Then what was my objection at the time, did I just want to use a scalpel?"

   Eckmond replied:

   "That's not true. Back then, our opinions were actually quite ambiguous, but they were not as strong as yours. The main reason is that those necromancers are too bastards! They seemed willing to support us in governing the Scar of the Dead, but each of them had their own ghosts.

  The then Lord of White Rock City wanted to resurrect the Scar of the Dead into a huge form of Ghost Touch. I suspect that he wanted to use this thing to destroy the world.

  The necromancer group from the north wants to raise the Scar of the Dead as their back garden for searching for life energy.

   The necromancers in our alliance are relatively clean. They just want to cheat more money, and then they launched several small undead disasters in the north when everyone's attention was on the south.

   We wouldn't even have noticed it if they hadn't slaughtered the village near Roderick's old home.

  In the end, the fundamental reason why we terminated the project was because of your strong opposition and the fact that the Scar of the Dead project involved too much energy from the Alliance.

  Because of the above, you have always been very prejudiced against necromancers. At the beginning, you specifically confessed to us, especially Ronan, that necromancers cannot be trusted.

  But how could Ronan listen to it at that time?

  At that time, he was in love with a necromancer of the ghost clan, and the two parties were in the middle of an adulterous relationship. You had a fight with each other, and finally broke up badly, and then..."

"enough!"

  Isabel waved her hand impatiently:

   "Ekmond, it seems that you have also reached menopause, and you talk too much like an old man."

  Ekmond's mouth moved, and there was grievance in his eyes.

   "The question now is, Matthew has already presented the results, what are you going to do with it?"

   asked Isabelle.

  Seeing that everyone is still silent.

   Still Ekmond stood up:

"Then let Matthew solve it completely. We can jointly launch an S1 project, let Matthew be in charge of hosting, and you can assist as a supervisor. Since it is S1, the overall person in charge of this project has to be you .”

  Isabel looked at the six phantoms without comment:

   "You have also heard what Ekmond said, the S1 project, are you willing to give it to a wild mage?"

"I have no opinion."

  Roderick, the Guardian of the North, answered first.

   "I'm not interested, listen to you."

  The Guardian of the West said coldly.

   "I...cough cough cough!"

  When it was the Guardian of the East's turn to speak, he suddenly coughed violently, and the phantom he transformed into was also twisting crazily on the dome and walls like a giant snake.

   "It's okay, I'm okay, it was that evil dragon just now, he came to harass me again, and he is being beaten by me now, cough cough cough cough cough cough!"

   It's just that his voice doesn't sound that optimistic.

   "Are you okay, Chen? I heard you coughed up blood."

   Isabel rarely showed a concerned expression.

"I'm fine. The evil dragon in the sea is not my opponent. You know my strength. Of course I agree with Matthew as the person in charge of the S1 project. I can even arrange some of my students to assist him—if he wants, Cough, cough, grass, don't bite me here!"

  The voice fell.

  The voice of the guardian of the east "Chen" stopped abruptly.

  His phantom also suddenly disappeared in the library.

   "Is he really okay? I heard that he has been fighting that evil dragon for the past few years."

   Isabel asked.

  Ekmond said calmly:

   "It's okay, if Chen dies, Roderick will get it through divination, and then we will know—Roderick, is he dead?"

   Roderick replied:

"currently there is not."

  Ekmond said with satisfaction:

   "Look, the alliance has a very complete mechanism for paying attention to senior mages."

   "Now dead."

   Roderick said suddenly.

  Ekmond was a little surprised.

   "Resurrected again."

   Roderick said again.

  Ekmond frowned.

   "Die a second time."

   Roderick said.

  Ekmond coughed heavily.

   "It's okay, he still has resurrection..."

   Roderick said again.

   "Shut up Roderick! Let me know when he's really dead!"

  Isabel showed a headache:

   "Why are you guys all guardians or masters of the sky, and you are still so naive?"

"Since none of you object, then the project of Matthew and Scar of the Dead is confirmed. Of course, I don't think Matthew is capable of handling all the projects. I will give him a period of time to let him grow. During this period, The alliance can arrange some mages to observe and study in the past, mainly to learn Matthew's ideas, remember to go there in batches, and report to Matthew in advance, understand?"

  Ekmond nodded heavily.

   "By the way, Ekmond, tell Matthew for me to buy some better crystal balls, and don't borrow second-hand ones that others have used!"

   Finish these.

  Isabel stood up contentedly:

   "get out of class is over!"

   "Remember to ask Ronan to come to my office later."

   "I will let him understand the consequences of absenteeism!"

  The time came to mid-May unknowingly.

  After the Scar of the Dead incident came to an end, Matthew was able to allocate his energy to other areas. In addition to daily planting trees, making up for spells, and fishing at work, he also did two things.

  The first thing happened in early May.

  A magic item store named "Mystery of the Deep Sea" officially opened in the North Trading Station of Rolling Stone Town.

  In addition to the name of the store, this store also put up a huge advertising slogan outside——

  「Underwater breathing potion is on sale: Naga agrees to use it!」

  The huge slogan and strange advertising words immediately attracted the attention of many people.

   It is said that on the opening day, the threshold was leveled by businessmen or idlers who heard the news.

   It was just a day of trouble, but none of the medicines on the shelves were sold.

  Most people just come to watch the excitement, and they may be willing to buy some small things, but besides the underwater breathing potion on the shelves, there are more advanced frogman potions.

  So the flow of people on the opening day could not be converted into any sales.

  However, the joke of "Naga said it's okay to use it" has successfully become a topic of conversation among people after dinner—

  Do Naga need water breathing potion?

   The answer is of course no.

  Many people used this to make fun of the clerk. Although the clerk was blushed by the teasing of the idlers, they insisted that their potions were approved by the Naga.

  Anyway, Rolling Stone Town is in the inland area, and the Naga have no chance to refute it, right?

  The North Trading Post was mainly established for the chambers of commerce in Strom City, Jade Cangting, and the northern cities.

quickly.

   This joke spread to the north.

   Few days.

   Two mages made a special trip to the store. After inspecting the goods, they found that the quality of the underwater breathing potion in this store is indeed amazing. The most terrible thing is that its price is a little cheaper than the normal price.

  So the two mages planned to empty out the store on the spot.

  However, the clerk told them that since the store has just opened and the products are limited, the purchase restriction plan is temporarily implemented on a head-by-person basis.

   If they have more needs for underwater breathing potions, they can get more goods in the next batch of goods by pre-ordering.

   Of course, 1/3 of the payment is required as a deposit for booking.

  The two mages argued with the clerk for a while, but the latter refused to budge. In the end, they could only silently place a deposit.

   So far.

  The business of "Mystery of the Deep Sea" is gradually on the right track.

  In the North Trading Station, there were quite a few people staring at the high-end goods in that room, but more people gave up the idea of ​​doing evil after noticing the big and exaggerated advertising slogan—

  Everyone knows that the lord of Rolling Stone Town attaches great importance to the order of the trading post, and at the same time has strict management of the shops.

  Last year, there was a shop where the garbage at the entrance was not cleaned up in time, so I was fined three months' rent.

  In the first half of the year, a store moved the billboard to a place three steps away from the door, but it was quickly removed by the guards who heard the news.

Only this deep-sea mystery that is said to be backed by the "Oak Chamber of Commerce", the billboards are almost crowded into the alleys at both ends, but the guards who have always been dubbed the "street demolition team" by the stores for their efficient actions are late. Didn't show up.

   On the contrary, early the next morning, several guards blatantly picked up two little thieves from the shop.

  After a terrible caning.

  Even the bullies and gangsters who couldn't see the situation clearly lost their minds.

   After more than ten days.

  The sales of underwater breathing potions are not very fast, but the shipment speed is relatively stable.

  Matthew can feel the pleasure of pocketing high profits all the time.

  However, he himself only stood guard at the North Trading Station for about a week, and handed over chores and security to Rhaegar's people.

  Business is only a small part of his plans for May.

   The most important thing is that other thing—

  He is going to officially start building the cemetery!

  The cemetery in the realm of the undead is different from the secular concept.

  It is actually a realized "ceremony field".

The undead who have lived in the cemetery for a long time will gain stronger combat capabilities. If the scale of the cemetery continues to expand and the "well of the dead" is born by itself, then this cemetery will continuously hatch new undead. deceased.

   What's more, Matthew still has the ability of "Master of the Graveyard".

  He plans to vigorously develop the cemetery in addition to planting trees this summer.

   Beacon used to recruit elite undead must be established.

  The ability of "Tombstone Creation" also needs to shine.

  Matthew hopes that this place will become a paradise for the undead to live and work in peace.

  The first step in turning the cemetery into a ceremonial site in the realistic sense is to expand the border of the cemetery according to the specifications of the ceremonial site, and plan and establish the core building and auxiliary buildings of the cemetery.

   This step is actually not that easy.

  When Matthew was selecting the site for the cemetery, he had considered the follow-up ritual field, and deliberately chose an underground space with open terrain and suitable soil quality.

   But this space still needs a makeover.

  Renovating a dungeon often requires a lot of manpower.

  Although the zombies are good free labor, they are too stupid. They can dig pits well, but they can't distinguish north from south when digging walls.

  These days are busy.

  Matthew often thinks:

   "If only I had a duergar construction team."

   Duergars have always been known for being "good at opening up a perfect dungeon in rocks of any texture".

Unfortunately.

  Although Matthew's cemetery is also underground, it is still too close to the surface, and gray dwarves are unlikely to appear here.

  He can only let himself go into battle and direct the zombies to work step by step.

   This is very inefficient.

  The only thing that makes Matthew feel relieved is that.

   The Troll Shinwak did come in handy in the process of opening up the cemetery.

   He didn't even use the remote.

  Sinwak obediently obeyed his orders.

   He gnawed wherever Matthew asked him to gnaw.

  As a kind of earth monster, trolls have a very strong ability to destroy rocks. No matter how strong the place is, as long as Xinwak gnaws it in the past, it will soon be completely eaten up.

  With the help of Shinwak.

  The reclamation of the cemetery went smoothly.

   Except for the occasional collapse that buried a few zombies.

   Everything else is fine.

   This night.

   Matthew finished his hard work of commanding the cemetery reclamation, and crawled out of the cave in disgrace.

  The moonlight shines on the ground, everything is so quiet and peaceful.

  He quickly came to the oak forest.

   At this time, there are already people waiting for Matthew in the forest.

  The man was wrapped in white cloth strips, and his exposed skin was also frighteningly pale.

   "Good evening, Master Matthew."

  The drow warrior greeted.

   Immediately, she showed hesitation:

   "There, can I really get in?"

  Matthew played "Spotless" to himself, then smiled and said:

   "Don't worry, you have to believe that the goddess of moonlight is a very tolerant god."

   said.

  He was using his ability and brought Lila into the demiplane under the moonlight!

  「Hint: You and your partner Lyra have entered the Moon Obscure.

   Do you want to consume a servant quota to convert "Shadow Sworn Lila" into your "Servant under the Moon"? "
