A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees Chapter 223

Chapter 223 Throwing Gloves and Legendary Power

Margaret sent herself an interdimensional magical letter?

Matthew chose to accept without hesitation.

 The next second.

 Suddenly a slight wind blew in front of his eyes.

 A very mini whirlwind rose from under his feet, and then quickly transformed into a particularly thin air element.

  It is different from the ordinary air element.

This guy looks extremely thin and pale, and he doesn't have the unique evil temperament of the air element.

"My name is Fat Zai, and I am Ms. Margaret's latest courier. She has a letter and three items that she wants me to deliver to you. You must read the letter first and make a decision before I hand over the remaining items. for you."

The thin Qi element said obviously lacking Qi.

 Out of courtesy.

Matthew did not continue to look at him, but nodded and accepted the letter from the other party.

 After opening and reading.

 A serious look gradually appeared on Matthew's face.

 Margaret is writing to ask for help!

Don't look at the fact that she went on a killing spree in purgatory, killing monsters one after another, her record was astonishing.

 But it was an away game after all.

 The dangers and pressures she faced far exceeded the trials in the material world.

certainly.

 If it's just dangerous, then that's it.

 Margaret was born to challenge herself.

 But the problem now is.

 After the Astral War, the relationship between the Alliance and the gods further became rigid, and the attitudes of quite a few outer plane forces, including Purgatory, became ambiguous—

 In the Age of Enlightenment.

 The gods of Tianlun Palace and the forces of purgatory, abyss, evil spirits and other forces that control the main material world are unyielding.

 It can be after Tianlun Palace Shengque.

 The gods are actually no different from them.

We are all dangerous elements drifting in the outer plane. In terms of foundation in the main material world, the forces such as purgatory or evil spirits may be more stable than the gods!

 In this way.

 Tianlun Palace and purgatory, abyss and the world of evil spirits have actually become potential allies.

 The alliance and Tianlun Palace broke up.

 The actions in purgatory will naturally be obstructed at every turn.

 At present, in order to protect the safety of mages.

The Seven Saints Alliance's strongholds in Purgatory have all been eliminated.

 Some remaining hidden strongholds.

Margaret can't be contacted either.

 This resulted in the loss of supplies for her journey to purgatory.

 This was a fatal blow to Margaret.

She dared to break into Purgatory alone, mainly because the Alliance has planted many strongholds in Purgatory. These strongholds will serve as her back-up, and she can retreat to her hometown if she can't.

 But things are different now.

 At present, Margaret can be said to be fighting alone in the true sense.

　　Many legendary creatures in purgatory are eyeing her.

 Margaret's supplies have been consumed very quickly recently.

 She mentioned in her letter.

 She needs a large amount of Lancelot's magic bottles and high-level torrent potions. Without these potions, her combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.

Matthew was not surprised.

Margaret is a genuine kryptonian warrior. Her body is an extremely powerful fighting machine, and her fighting method also relies heavily on various magic props and resources.

　　If things continue like this.

 Not only may she have to terminate this self-challenge, she may even die in purgatory!

Margaret asked Matthew for help.

She currently occupies a gold mine on the 10th floor of Purgatory and is ordering her dwarf prisoners of war to work overtime day and night.

She plans to empty out this gold mine quickly, then transfer the wealth to the main material world, exchange it for corresponding magic props and resources, and then proceed to the next stage of the journey to purgatory.

  But there are many difficulties in this process.

 The top leaders of the alliance are all staring at her, and there is definitely no way they can help her.

The best way she came up with was to transport the gold to Escana between Purgatory through the channels she established, and then send it to the main material world through Rhaegar's portal.

 She found a middleman in Escana.

 But it still requires Matthew's cooperation to complete the operation of the entire chain.

Matthew looked thoughtful after reading it.

 Margaret's idea is indeed a solution to the problem.

Rhaegar's portal is very secretive.

Everyone in Escana knows that there is such a portal, but no devil or devil can find it, which is enough to illustrate the value of that portal.

 The problem is.

Even if Matthew is willing to take a certain risk to help Margaret, Rhaegar is willing to share this risk.

 But with Rolling Stone's current momentum.

　　It can hardly be called low-key.

 After the First World War in Moss Green Hills.

 The number of gods paying attention to Matthew increased sharply.

Before the invisibility function was developed, Matthew felt that his every move would be watched by a group of voyeurs.

 Him being responsible for dealing with Margaret's intermediary may only harm her.

 Matthew conveyed his concerns to the air elemental.

 The latter blinked:

"Is this an excuse? If so, just blink three times in a row and I won't ask again."

Matthew was stunned for a moment:

“Of course not, I just want to know if there is any better candidate for Margaret besides me?”

The Qi element showed an expression of sudden realization, and then said seriously:

“As far as I know, Ms. Margaret has only written to you for help.”

 Is this so?

 Matthew was somewhat surprised.

He originally thought that Margaret had a lot of connections in the alliance and he should be just a backup option, but he didn't expect that he would become the only one?

 “Then let me think of a way.”

Matthew nodded and said:

 “This matter must be carried out very carefully, I may entrust a third party.”

The air element said calmly:

"That's up to you. Unfortunately, I'm too thin to carry more items. Otherwise, Ms. Margaret wouldn't need to seek additional channels."

"Since you agreed to this, I will give you the remaining three items. These three items are the "throwing gloves" given to you by Ms. Margaret. If you need them, you can buy them at a low price. The scalp of the Rand clan devil, and the funds used to purchase the magic props Ms. Margaret needs - a heart-hunting golden diamond. "

 While speaking.

 He took out the three items and placed them in front of Matthew.

Matthew looked at them one by one.

 The first is "throwing gloves".

This thing was given to him by Margaret, and Matthew didn't show any pretense, so he took it and put it on his left hand.

 Throwing gloves can increase the wearer's strength by 1 point.

But its most powerful effect is that as long as you pour a little mana into the glove, you can activate the force field magic on it.

 At this time, you can attract items or creatures within 10 meters to your gloves!

 As long as something is adsorbed.

Then the throwing gloves will be charged, and you can throw the adsorbed items with force.

 Under the influence of magic.

That thing will be thrown far, far away by you!

 According to Fat Zai's introduction.

This glove is a magic item that Margaret eliminated.

 She has been using it for more than 10 years.

It's just that I found a better magic glove in purgatory, so I reluctantly gave it to Matthew.

 Matthew couldn't put it down.

 The throwing function of the gloves is not of much use to him.

On the contrary, the ability to absorb is simply a blessing for the Necromancer!

Although Pale Hand can also maintain mid-range attacks, the effect will be weakened.

There is now a "throwing glove".

 He can completely **** the enemy into his hand with his left hand, and then press it with his right hand to press him to death!

 This glove provides many flexible and versatile tactical options.

 The value is self-evident.

 “Please thank Ms. Margaret for me.”

Matthew said.

 The Qi element nodded.

 The second item is a small stack of scalps.

 According to Fat Zai's introduction.

These scalps come from a group of demons named Clan Rand.

 They are very compact and strong, an extremely rare tough material and a writing medium for magical contracts.

 The market value of each scalp is about 8,000 yuan.

 This pile contains 20 pieces.

 It's worth 160,000.

  If Matthew wants it, he can get it directly for 80,000 yuan.

 This part of the money does not need to be paid directly to Margaret, but can be transferred to the purchase fee.

 Matthew gently stroked the devil's scalp.

 My heart was extremely excited.

 This is the material he urgently needs right now!

Whether it is the proof of the realm of the ceremonial site or the contract of the Balanced Hand, it requires an extremely tough and spiritual medium.

obviously.

These scalps are one of the best materials for writing magical texts.

80,000 yuan is not a small amount of money for Matthew.

 But he bought it without hesitation.

 As for the last piece of heart-hunting gold diamond.

This thing is a specialty of Purgatory. It has incredible sturdiness, and even ordinary legendary spells cannot destroy its structure.

 The gold diamond given by Margaret was as big as a baby's fist.

  Very suitable as the tip of a gun weapon.

  Can also be used to make semi-artifacts or strategic magic weapons.

 The market price of the Heart Hunting Diamond is around 800,000 gold coins.

Matthew just needs to dispose of it around this price, and then he can get a commission equivalent to 10% of the total price.

 Just exchange all the remaining money for the magic items Margaret needs.

 Have to admit it.

Margaret was sincere in asking him to help.

 In fact, even if there is no commission, Matthew will try his best to do it.

 But Margaret's way of handling this will undoubtedly make him feel more comfortable.

"It's easy to talk to Rhaegar, but I think this matter may need to seek the opinion of the alliance's senior management. On the one hand, the current relationship between the alliance and the outer plane is very sensitive. On the other hand, if there is a divine mage to help , the success rate of finding an unknown third party to complete the task of delivering supplies will be higher."

  Matthew explained about the element of air.

 The latter nodded calmly:

 “How to solve it is your business, I will not make any interference.”

 “I will come back to you in a week and hope to get good news from you.”

 “Well, see you later.”

 After the Qi element disappears.

Matthew grabbed the golden diamond and ran straight to the crucible house. After walking through several portals, he came to Suriel's Crystal Palace again.

 He planned to communicate with Suriel first.

 Margaret is her student after all, maybe Suriel has a better plan?

 However, when he arrived outside the gate.

But he was stopped by a magic cat at the door:

“Ms. Suriel is currently traveling in parallel dimensions and won't see anyone for half a year. Guests, please come back!”

“Even if you want to pay interest, please wait half a year.”

Suriel went to a parallel plane?

Matthew was stunned at first.

 But the cat's serious face and cunning eyes made him quickly realize that this was probably just an excuse.

 It should be after the battle in the star realm.

Legal leaders are taking action, and Souriel is involved.

“It seems like my teacher Isabel is the only one who is free?”

 “Do you want to ask her what she thinks?”

 Matthew is thinking.

 At this time.

 Another fat cat jumped out of the castle.

 This fat cat Matthew has seen before.

 It is Aji who is responsible for welcoming guests into the living room.

 Aji said to Matthew:

“Ms. Suriel is indeed unable to meet anyone at the moment, but she told her before she left that if it is a matter in Rolling Stone Town, she can go to Chen, the Guardian of the East.”

“At present, the top leaders of the alliance have redistributed power and responsibilities during the war. The territory that was previously under the jurisdiction of Southern Guardian Ronan has been temporarily handed over to Chen for management.”

"You can go find him. This is the token Ms. Suriel gave you. Please accept it."

 Said.

 Aggie handed Matthew a box of magic matches.

 There are only three matches in the matchbox.

 Aggie explains:

“Each time you light a match, you will briefly have the opportunity to talk to the Guardian of the East.”

"Chen has a good temper, but if there is nothing important, it is better not to disturb the guardian."

Matthew looked grateful.

The two cats were indifferent. They walked in the sunshine and yawned as they left.

 Return to the back of the Crucible House.

 Matthew found a quiet corner and lit the first match.

 The orange-red magic flame lights up.

 Soon.

 A calm male voice sounded:

“How many times have I told you, Suriel, I have stopped gambling and don't play cards with me anymore. No matter what excuse you give today, I will not play cards with you—unless you can get Youruo back.”

 Matthew coughed:

“Sorry, Mr. Chen, I'm Matthew, and this box of matches was given to me by Ms. Suriel.”

Chen laughed and said:

“Suriel, pretending to be Matthew is no fun at all. I've already told you that your transformation skills are terrible. Let me find your flaws...Huh? Is it really Matthew?”

 His voice changed involuntarily:

 “Hello Matthew, what's the matter?”

 Feel the alienation in the other person's tone. Matthew hurriedly told Margaret the current situation.

 After listening.

Chen couldn't help but complain:

"Su Ruir is too irresponsible, isn't he willing to take care of his own students?"

“And you, you are obviously Isabel's student, why did you come to me?”

 “The gods and mages don't care about anything, right? They just know how to squeeze us little legends!”

Matthew suddenly looked embarrassed.

 Actually, Chen is right. This matter is theoretically the responsibility of Suriel or Isabel. It would be more reasonable to let Ronan or Ekmund handle it.

 But now the senior management staff is really tight.

Matthew heard that Chen and Rodrik took on most of the work that was beyond the purview of the Silver Council.

 It is normal to have such complaints.

 “Then shall I go find my teacher?”

Matthew said softly.

However, Chen immediately denied it:

 “Why are you looking for her?”

“If you go to her about such a small matter, she will definitely scold you!”

“Just come to me directly if you have anything to do in the future. I have already thought of a solution to Margaret's problem.

But I also have very important things to do now.

  Temporarily no time to separate.

 Well, you come to me in a week.

 At that time, you can find a beach at random, recite a spell, and then you can come to my Tower of Babel and remember the content of the spell..."

 Matthew listened intently.

 Soon, I memorized that complicated spell deeply in my heart.

 Seeing that the magic match was almost burning out.

 Chen asked:

 “Is there anything else?”

Matthew shook his head, but there was still a worried look on his face.

Chen seemed to be able to see his expression and immediately comforted:

“Don't worry, Margaret will be fine. She is a very strong child with great potential.”

“If something happens during this week, it will be fate. She is a born warrior. Only through the training of life and death can she find a bright road, just like me..."

 Speaking of which.

The firelight lit by the magic match suddenly heard a female voice of um um ah ah!

 There seemed to be a dozen women surrounding Chen.

 Performing some unspeakable behavior.

 Matthew was shocked.

He hurriedly stretched out his hand to extinguish the flame, but the magic match had special properties, and Matthew couldn't extinguish it no matter how hard he pinched it!

 “Well, don't get me wrong, the sounds you heard are all hallucinations!”

“I'm doing a kind of training to improve the resistance to illusions. Those sounds are fake and don't exist, hiss—!”

 “Well, ah, let's see next time, okay?”

 Chen's voice stopped suddenly.

 The magic match finally went out.

Matthew wiped the sweat from his forehead, just as he was sighing that the mages could still play.

 A low voice of laughter sounded in his ears.

 Follow.

　　That's the sound of um um ah ah that I just heard!

Many unspeakable images immediately appeared in front of Matthew's eyes.

 The next second.

His eyes widened and his pupils became a little blurred.

 Fortunately, Xin Ru Shui Shui activated in time.

　　It forcefully pulled his mind back!

  Hint: You have completed an illusion-specific resistance training!

 Your resistance to female **** +1"

 “I'm actually doing illusion resistance training!”

 Matthew was stunned.

  Is there any special training for illusion resistance?

 Except for female sex.

Is there any special training for gold coins, male sex, and power?

 Matthew's consciousness quickly spread.

  After a while.

 He suddenly realized another problem:

“Does a high-ranking legend still need this level of special training in illusions?”

 Matthew did not dare to continue gossiping.

I can only say that it is normal for senior mages to play.

 As for Margaret.

 He could only silently pray for her that nothing would happen to her within this week.

  After all, she should know the efficiency of the alliance better than herself.

 After returning to Rolling Stone Town.

 Matthew continued to plant pine trees vigorously.

 Even if a visiting delegation comes.

Matthew just made a mistake in the past. After explaining the working principle of the protective umbrella to them once, he charged the price according to the last time, and then ignored it.

The nine mages are also quite good.

 Coming and going without a trace, basically did not disturb Matthew's tree planting business.

 Seven days go by in a blink of an eye.

 In a wooden house in a pine forest.

 Matthew is reviewing this week's work.

This week, his tree planting efficiency has improved. The number of pine trees planted has reached 482, and the size of the pine forest has reached 885.

 It won't be long before the number exceeds a thousand.

at the same time.

 He also accumulated 12 strengthening points.

 There is a wave of twelve draws in a row!

 Hint: Strengthening successful!

Your signature spell "Deadly Scissors" has received the following improvements—

 The damage is increased for a period of time.

 Three stages of charging are shortened by 3S.

 The damage is increased for a period of time.

 The second stage charge damage is increased.

 Elite Enhancement (virtual and real): The actual attack range of your deadly scissors and the light and shadow effect display are inconsistent. Others can only see the phantom of a scissor, but you can see the phantom and the actual attack range at the same time.

 The second stage of charging is shortened by 1S.

 Elite Enhancement (Disintegrate Armor): The first damage dealt by your deadly scissors will have the effect of Disintegration.

 The second stage charge damage is increased.

 Three stages of charging are shortened by 3S.

 Legendary Enhancement (Legendary Power): The third damage of your Deadly Scissors will be increased to the level of the legendary entry evocation spell! "

 Spell chanting time is reduced by 5S.

 Rare Enhancement (Stealth Casting): When you chant this spell, you will automatically become invisible.

 After this wave of strengthening is completed.

 Matthew's signature spell has reached a new level!

 The first is "Legendary Power".

  This is a legendary level enhancement, which directly raises the upper limit of Deadly Scissors to the strength of legendary spells.

This is also the first spell that Matthew has mastered with legendary level strength.

 Even if the third stage of damage requires charging, it currently requires 20 seconds of charging time, but a legend is a legend.

 This spell can form a huge deterrent once it is released.

 The value is no longer limited to the harm itself.

Matthew's sense of security has been greatly improved!

  Secondly, the rare enhancement of "Stealth Casting" is also very powerful.

 It takes effect from the beginning of chanting.

Although the voice still reveals one's position when chanting.

  But it also provides the mage with more space for subsequent operations.

 Once the chanting is complete.

 Your own security will be greatly improved.

Not to mention that Matthew may develop attributes similar to silent spellcasting in subsequent spell enhancements.

 This enhancement will become even more valuable by then!

The two elite enhancements also have their own functions. "Void and Real" can be used to increase the hit rate of spells and can also be used to create smoke bombs;

“Disintegrate Armor” may greatly increase the damage effect of spells.

 After all, force field spells also have a certain amount of physical damage.

 As for the general enhancement, it also greatly improved the properties of the Deadly Scissors spell.

So far.

  The chanting time of Deadly Scissors has been changed to 10 seconds, which has been shortened by half compared to the original time.

 The first-stage damage and the second-stage damage have also reached the level equivalent to level 15 and 18 evocation spells.

 Even if it can't deal three stages of damage.

This spell is comparable to many powerful spells.

 After reading the properties.

Matthew's heart was racing.

Two waves of enhancements have already become like this. Wouldn't another two waves take off directly?

 The moment.

 He only had one thought -

 No one can stop him from planting pine trees!

Not even an oak tree!

 Thinking of this.

Matthew couldn't help but pick up another bag of saplings and headed straight to the tree pit in the north!

 Poof!

 Poof!

 Poof!

 Use rapid growth to turn this small forest into a towering tree.

 Matthew was extremely satisfied.

 He ​​originally wanted to strike while the iron was hot, but at this moment, he suddenly noticed the centaur Obest wandering around him.

 He seemed to be inspecting the situation in the pine forest.

 Looking at Matthew, he realized that the other party was here to find him.

 Considering that Obest's character is somewhat arrogant and awkward.

Matthew, who was in a good mood, simply stepped forward and asked:

 “What's wrong? Is there something going on?”

Obest nodded honestly:

 “There are two things I need to report to you.”

"The first thing is about the new life sanctuary. You asked me to place such a ceremony place in the pine forest before, but after trying it, I found that Mr. Eli played an irreplaceable role in the last ceremony place. It's a shame, I can't complete it independently, this is my dereliction of duty, I'm sorry.”

 His whole face looked red.

Matthew was a little surprised, but he was not a harsh person, so he comforted himself:

"It's okay. It seems that I underestimated the difficulty of the Life Sanctuary. Eli has the inheritance from the Earth Society. He has a deeper understanding of the combination of the earth and life. This is normal. If you can't complete it, don't rush to arrange it. "

Obest looked even more embarrassed.

His voice also became quieter:

"Thanks…"

“But regarding the Sanctuary of Life, I actually have other understandings.”

Matthew said calmly:

 “Just say it, make it clear.”

Obest adjusted his voice:

“I think it would be more difficult to build a new sanctuary in a pine forest and it would do more harm than good.”

“I know you may just want to plant pine trees, but there is also competition in nature. I really want to know what your positioning is for oak forests and pine forests?”

Matthew was stunned for a moment.

If Obest hadn't raised it, he really wouldn't have considered this issue before.

Obest continued:

“Of course it's understandable that you vigorously support the pine forest, and it's okay to install a life sanctuary, but this will create equal competition between the two forests. There is a lack of subordination between the two parties, and it is very likely to evolve into a life-or-death attitude.”

"This is not good news for the creatures in this area. Especially, don't you think Princess Lulu's attitude has changed recently? Oak trees are the children of nature - of course I don't think pine trees have a higher status than oak trees. It's lower. I just think that from the perspective of the field or the ritual site, a subordinate relationship between them may be better than a competitive relationship.”

Obest put it politely.

 But Matthew understood.

"You are right, even the fields must be prioritized. I already need to balance the various fields in the general direction, and naturally the fields must be more harmonious."

Matthew said seriously:

 “Thank you for the reminder, I will deal with this problem later.”

Obest breathed a sigh of relief as if he had been granted amnesty.

Soon he said embarrassedly:

 “That... I'm ready for what you promised me last time.”

Matthew thought for a moment and replied:

 “Your people?”

Obest nodded nervously:

"Yes, I have built a portal leading to the Sea of ​​Trees. Most of the money you gave me was used to build a springboard in the etheric plane - the Sea of ​​Trees has a very strong sense of self-protection. , it is almost impossible for outsiders to enter, and even a stable portal requires jumping through other planes in the inner plane..."

Obest's narrative is filled with many technical terminology of planarism.

Matthew felt a little dizzy.

 As a mage with no academic background, although he has worked very hard to learn knowledge.

 But in many ways, he is even worse than a centaur tree herder.

 At this moment, he could only raise his hand helplessly and said:

 “So you've got it done?”

Obest said:

“Yes, as soon as you approve it, 50 of my compatriots will arrive here as soon as possible.”

Matthew immediately said:

 “Let them come.”

Obest said ecstatically:

"Thank you!"

 “I'll start right now!”

 Said.

 He took Matthew to the side of the World Tree, where a rough teleportation array woven with olive leaves lay quietly on the ground.

 In the chants of Obest.

 A large amount of magic began to condense in the air.

 In the blink of an eye.

 A gloomy magical door appeared above the olive leaves.

  Matthew took a closer look.

 He saw a blue sky.

as well as…

 A claw that covered the sky pressed down from the sky!

“Warning: You have entered the attack range of the giant beast Alister!”

Matthew subconsciously took half a step back.

 At this time.

 An illusory figure suddenly appeared next to the portal.

The man looked at Matthew with a smile.

 “Is it convenient for us to take a moment to chat?”

“Prompt: You have met the projection of the Traveler God, and he has made a friendly request to you. Do you agree?”
