A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees Chapter 291

Chapter 291 Lorraine's Dark History and the Secret of the Guilty Crown

  Matthew chose OK.

Of course, such a simple and crude improvement must be won directly. Although it is not pleasant to be called a civil war expert, it is nothing compared to the straightforward improvement of combat power.

“It turns out that the title is also part of the combat power. No wonder there are so many suffixes for Lorraine…”

 Matthew was thoughtful.

He currently doesn't have many titles. The only ones with a certain level of legend are tree planting mage, dragon slaying warrior, natural mentor and civil war rising star.

 Among them, only the Civil War Nova has the most intuitive and significant effect.

 30% damage increase.

This thing still ignores magic resistance armor!

 In this way, Matthew, who was already very proficient in the Necromancer Civil War, would be more confident when fighting against other colleagues.

 In addition to the improvement of combat effectiveness.

 Taking this opportunity to enter the field of combat is even more unexpected.

The only regret is that he entered the combat field limited to mages, not the combat field of all professions.

 This is equivalent to entering a sub-field.

 There is still room for improvement in terms of priority.

besides.

 Perhaps because he entered with the elements of civil war, he did not have the right to choose one of the three in terms of domain abilities.

  It's quite gratifying.

 This ability has the opportunity to evolve into authority after being titled.

 In a way, it is more beneficial than free choice.

 After successfully killing the Necromancer Kunsa.

Matthew's ability to instigate rebellion quickly took over all the remaining undead troops in Kunsa.

“Tips: Your abilities of instigating rebellion, continuous instigating rebellion, and strengthening instigating rebellion are in effect.

 You have obtained a temporary formation of summons!

 You can perform the following operations on this summon formation—

 Disband;

  Destroy;

control;

 Disbanding means turning this group of undead into ownerless beings;

  Destruction is to directly annihilate the existence of the undead from the level of contract and soul;

 Control is to gain short-term control over them and conduct command and recruitment for a period of time;

 Transformation is to take this group of undead to one's own use.

Matthew did not hesitate and directly chose to transform.

 It should be said or not.

The undead left behind by Kunsa are quite useful.

 Especially the four mummies.

Matthew touched them left and right, as if he couldn't put them down.

Mummies are very good undead units.

 They are extremely powerful warriors, possessing excellent sword skills and strong frontal breakthrough capabilities;

The bandages wrapped around them gave the mummies super high magic resistance. Matthew checked and found that these four mummies in Kunsa were directly immune to most magic below level four!

The mummy's bandages have many properties. Some can be released suddenly to entangle enemies, some can pull enemies towards themselves, or eject themselves into enemies. Some bandages can even be eaten and used to restore the life of the undead. value.

besides.

　　The mummy also has high natural armor and an outstanding health bar among the undead. It can be said to be the most perfect existence among the mid-level undead.

 This thing is also the nemesis of spellcasters to a certain extent and a weapon for civil war among peers!

 It's a pity that what they encountered was instigators!

 Otherwise, it might cause a lot of trouble for Matthew.

"These four mummies must be taken home. Kunsa's storage item is a gray ring. Unfortunately, it is locked with a secret magic. I have to take it back to Richard to see..."

 Between thoughts.

Matthew took out a huge tombstone and placed it in the middle of the road, and then ordered the temporary summons to touch the surface of the tombstone one by one to complete the transformation ceremony.

 This is a registered tombstone.

 Using this as a medium, Matthew can include this group of summons in the formation in the cemetery.

 The current Deathdread Cemetery already has the ability to accommodate summons individually.

 This ability is linked to Matthew's strength and the level of the ceremony site.

 At present, the maximum number of summons that can be accommodated in the cemetery formation alone is 480, which is the same as Matthew.

 That is to say.

  Matthew plus the cemetery, the total number of summons of a single type that he could maintain came to 960.

This is already a very powerful existence among non-legendary necromancers.

“Unfortunately, except for mummies, the quality of other zombie skeletons is much worse…”

 Matthew looked a little regretful.

But this regret soon disappeared:

“Anyway, these zombies will be brought back to the coolie mothers for training, so they are not needed to fight in peacetime.”

"It's a pity that the skeletons are not very talented. Although the skeleton assassins brought out by Ah Bing are somewhat useful, they are too small in number and are not feasible for large-scale promotion. I wonder if the Coolie Mother can cross the arms and train the skeletons as well? "

At this time, Luo Lan walked over with a complicated expression.

He looked at the undead people who were queuing up to register their household registration, and then at the corpse of the necromancer Kunsa, and couldn't help but sigh:

“It seems that you have learned bad things from Silver Snake!”

Matthew smiled and asked:

 “Can't I be self-taught?”

Roland also laughed:

“Then I have to wonder if your Rolling Stone Town is a land of outstanding people and specializes in cultivating civil war experts.”

The red-robed priest came over and she said seriously:

“If you want to reach the top in your respective fields, it is inevitable to become the king in the civil war.”

“This is a natural result of screening in the field, and it is nothing to laugh at.”

 “I don't believe you don't have some tips for dealing with your peers.”

 Loland spread his hands:

 “There is no little trick.”

 “But there are a lot of trump cards.”

 Carmela rolled her eyes.

Matthew took over the mold containing the gold water and the crucible next to it.

　　“This crucible can also be sold for some money…”

Matthew tapped the mold gently and listened to the echo inside:

“There seems to be more than four thousand gold coins in it.”

Just at this time.

 Originally, he was among the Gemstone Bay group who were watching.

Linden suddenly took a step forward and said to Matthew:

 “There are a thousand gold coins in here that belong to me!”

Matthew and the other three turned their heads and looked at Linden and the others with interest.

Stanley's face tightened, he pulled Lyndon and scolded him in a low voice:

"What are you doing?"

Linden smiled disapprovingly and said:

 “My senses tell me they look like good people.”

“Especially the pretty guy with the shovel, they won't do anything to me!”

He was still walking forward as he spoke:

 “Hey, give me the money back!”

 A few steps later.

 A red shadow suddenly flashed past.

But Carmela suddenly rushed in front of Linden, grabbed Linden's right arm, held his shoulder with the other hand, and then pulled down hard -

 An extremely terrifying scene appeared!

The sounds of broken bones and torn clothes were heard at the same time, and everyone watched in stunned silence as a large amount of blood spattered from Linden's shoulders!

 In Linden's screams like a pig being killed.

The red-robed priest actually tore his arm off his body!

"Quiet."

Carmela said.

Linden still kept howling in place, but his voice disappeared instantly.

 Everyone was horrified to see it.

With a flick of Carmela's fingertips, a white light enveloped Linden's injury. The latter was sweating profusely and still looked in pain, but the bleeding had stopped.

 “You are injured now and have lost an arm.”

"But you are lucky enough to meet me. I happen to be a priest. I can help you connect this arm directly, but you have to pay for it."

“I won't ask for a high price, how about a thousand gold coins?”

Carmela stared into Linden's eyes seriously.

Linden had a look of fear on his face.

He was sweating profusely and nodded, his lips chattering as if he was saying something. Unfortunately, due to the silence, no one could hear anything.

"very good."

Carmela expressionlessly pressed the arm back onto Lyndon's arm.

 The next second.

 The pure and flawless divine brilliance bloomed again.

 The broken arm and the injured shoulder fit perfectly.

 Just half a minute later.

 Except for the fact that his coat and sleeves were torn apart, Lyndon's body had been restored to its original shape!

Everyone silently looked at the completely invisible injury, marveling at the magic of the magic.

Linden glanced at Carmela with fear, and then quickly retreated behind Stanley.

“Isn't it a bit bad for you to do this?”

 Loland walked over.

 Carmela said calmly:

 “What's the problem? I hate this guy's face, and I hate being called a good person even more.”

“What he just said triggered some bad memories for me.”

"Although I am indeed a good person, it does not mean that he can use this identity to kidnap me."

Roland shook his head:

“I mean, you could totally dress him backwards when you attach that arm.”

“Then we can take the opportunity to collect another thousand gold coins and straighten it out.”

“Don't worry, I can't be kidnapped as a good person, and if I have such magical medical skills as you, this kid will have more than just his arms removed.”

 Said.

 He gave Linden a malicious look.

Linden was frightened and took another step back.

This time I just retreated behind Daisy.

Matthew saw this scene from behind and couldn't help but smile with relief.

Evil people still need to be punished by evil people.

They had actually seen the dispute and encounter that the Gemstone Bay group had just had.

Linden is a rare guy who makes the two legendary bosses feel disgusted at the same time.

However, Carmela's governance methods are also unique.

Matthew asked himself that if it were him, he might not have a better solution for a while.

 You can't really turn someone into an undead person.

That's so frivolous.

 Looking at the menacing trio.

 Stanley, the leader of the Gemstone Bay group, felt a pressure.

 He protected everyone behind him, and then said in a deep voice:

 “Let us go and we can pay.”

Matthew came over and shook his head.

Stanley's face tightened:

 “Do you have to push us to a dead end?”

Matthew gave a friendly smile:

 “That's not the case, we just want to cooperate with you.”

Just as Lyndon's conduct made all three of them feel disgusted, Stanley's actions were unanimously approved by all three of them.

 It is rare to see such a sophisticated thief these days.

certainly.

  The reason why the three Matthews plan to cooperate with each other.

  The more important point is.

Stanley, the white-robed thief, is an old acquaintance of Lorraine.

At this moment, under Stanley's doubtful eyes, Lorraine took off his disguise.

 “Lothalon, is that you?”

Stanley looked at Lorraine with surprise.

The latter's expression was also a little complicated, and he took the initiative to extend his right hand to Stanley:

"haven't seen you for a long time."

 “Is Julie okay?”

Stanley hesitated for a moment, then reluctantly shook hands with Loren:

 “She's fine, uh…she's pregnant, we've had two kids before and this is our third.”

His voice seemed a little nervous, and his eyes looking at Luo Lan were full of vigilance that he had never seen before.

 “Don't be nervous, I won't pry you into trouble.”

Roland laughed and said:

“To be honest, I have almost forgotten what Julie looks like. I only remember that she was the one with bigger **** among my ex-girlfriends…”

 Stanley's eyes gradually became unfriendly.

Roland coughed:

 “She is very discerning, and she will indeed suffer a lot less hardship if she follows you.”

 “But why are you here?”

“A high-risk job like grave robbing is not a job that a good husband or father should do…”

Stanley's eyes are magnanimous:

 “Life always costs money, doesn't it?”

"I don't have any other abilities. The money I earned before Jinpen washed his hands was all given to the poor. If the job I am doing now only supports the lives of Julie and I, of course it is more than enough, but if I want to raise children If so, the valuable land in Gem Bay will not be enough."

As he spoke, he changed the subject:

"how about you?"

“Young master of the Lanqi family, I heard that you have been promoted to legend, but both Cyber ​​Dragon and Cloud City are looking for you.”

"I was worried about you before...so why are you here?"

Roland smiled slightly:

“Wanted? What you said is all in the past tense.”

“I have joined a big organization now, and my status is different from before. You don't have to worry about me.”

 “My life now is extremely happy…”

 However, he was not finished yet.     A thick notebook with a black cover suddenly flew out from Luo Lan's collar.

The book opens automatically.

 A cold female voice came from the book:

 “Mr. Lorraine, I'm sorry to disturb your vacation.”

“I have compiled the urgently needed content into the Book of Hebrew Cards. Please be sure to complete three manuscripts of no less than 1,000 words within two days.”

 The smile on Luo Lan's face suddenly froze.

 He cleared his throat:

 “I'm on vacation, Rosie!”

The other party said calmly:

“Yes, I know, that's why I apologized in the first sentence.”

 There were veins jumping on Luo Lan's forehead:

 “So it's okay to just apologize?”

"if not?"

The cold female voice continued to narrate:

“If you cannot complete the task within the stipulated time, the publications we have planned before will still be released as scheduled.”

“It's just that the quality may not be guaranteed.”

"uh-huh?"

Roland snorted coldly:

 “So, what does it have to do with me?”

Rosie said calmly:

“In order to avoid this situation from happening, I plan to replace the layout of the manuscript originally left for you with photos of you gluing in the office..."

 “If you don't want this to happen, just write harder!”

 “Goodbye, Mr. Lorraine, I wish you a happy overtime work!”

 Snap.

 The Book of Hebrews fell heavily to the ground.

 It was quiet all around.

 Everyone looked at Luo Lan with different eyes.

And Stanley looked at Lorraine with a hint of sympathy in his eyes.

“You don't want to kill us to silence us, do you?”

Carmela glanced at Lorraine.

 The next second.

Loland expressionlessly took out the green piccolo and put it on his lips.

 Beautiful music sounded.

 An extremely strong feeling of dizziness began to stimulate everyone's brains!

 Matthew hurriedly took out the divinity.

ˆ With the power of divinity, Lorraine's music was successfully exempted.

 Carmela lowered her head and clasped her hands together.

 Her body glowed with a faint glow of divine magic, and she successfully resisted Lorraine's hypnosis.

 But others were not so lucky.

 Everyone, including Stanley, fell into a deep sleep!

 A full three minutes passed.

　　When Lorraine put down his piccolo with great relief, they suddenly woke up one by one.

 “What happened, brother-in-law?”

“I just had a dream. I dreamed that I was attacked by a group of monsters…”

The young man next to Stanley was chattering.

 The rest of the people also showed expressions that seemed like they were from another world.

 “Lothalon?”

 Stanley stared at Lorraine nervously:

“You just hypnotized us? What did you do to us?”

Roland waved his hand easily:

 “Just some necessary confidentiality measures.”

"Let's continue the topic we just talked about. We want to cooperate with you and explore the troll dungeon together."

“I noticed that you have a person in your team who is well versed in history, and I hope he can share all the information he has learned with us.”

“He should be willing to cooperate with us. After all, the three of us are good people.”

 As he spoke, he smiled at Linden.

Linden was frightened and took two steps back, but this time Stanley did not give him a good look. He grabbed Lyndon to prevent him from escaping, and then said to Lorraine:

"Can."

"I will ask Lyndon to translate all the historical content he sees on the spot, but I ask your people to properly protect us during the entire process of exploring the underground palace, and not to harm ours in any way. life."

Roland nodded cheerfully:

"no problem!"

But Stanley still looked a little doubtful:

 “I hope you can keep your promise.”

 “Your reputation before was not very good.”

 Loland smiled warmly:

“I have now cleared the shore and my credit is impeccable.”

“Speaking of which, how is Gem Bay lately? I have heard relatively negative news before.”

 Stanley shrugged:

 “That's it.”

“The security situation in some areas is a bit fluctuating, but it is still generally calm. People only care about the life in front of them and do not care about the disasters that seem to be far away.”

“By the way, when I went to Fizz's Bar last week, the boss told me that he missed you.”

“He said that in all the years since you left your job, he has never met a stripper as good as you…”

 “Wait, what are you doing?”

 Feeling the strange looks from everyone.

Loland once again put the piccolo to his lips expressionlessly.

 After a lullaby.

 The Gem Bay group woke up dizzy again.

 “Brother-in-law, why do I seem to have had another dream!”

“This time the dream became more real and terrifying. The monsters in the dream turned into a bunch of very fat women..."

The men are still chattering.

 Stanley had already taken the lead and looked directly at Lorraine:

 “What did you do to us?!”

Lorraine said bluntly:

“Now that we have agreed on cooperation, it's time to head to the Troll Underground Palace!”

“Don't forget that we have two other groups traveling with us. If we go too late, we may not even be able to share the soup!”

 “Let's go!”

Stanley glanced at Lorraine suspiciously, and finally agreed to the request to set off.

So the group of people walked west along the wet street.

 Continuously.

 They could see the ruins on both sides of the street.

 There are green creepers and black or purple moss everywhere.

 The sound of dripping water is endless.

Occasionally, we can see the writings of elves and some totems, but because the carriers have been corroded, it is difficult to distinguish their specific direction and meaning.

 As they walked on the street, they could hardly hear any sound except the footsteps and the sound of water dripping.

Time here seems to have been frozen.

Even the wind is frozen.

 They didn't encounter any monsters along the way.

 It seems like this is just a city forgotten by time.

 The end of the line.

Matthew controlled the newly acquired undead to scatter around in order to deal with potential surprise attacks.

 He glanced at the people in Gem Bay in front of him.

 Then he poked Luo Lan with his elbow and said in a low voice:

 “So, strippers, are they real?”

Roland glared at him dissatisfied:

 “It's just based on materials!”

 “Writers need inspiration, what do you know?”

 At this time.

 Carmela passed by the two of them leisurely.

 She took out a gold coin from somewhere, turned it half a circle between her thumbs, and then pinned it firmly on Lorraine's belt:

 “Come on.”

Roland's face darkened:

 “One gold coin is not enough!”

 “You have to add more money.”

  Half an hour later.

 In the underground space filled with the smell of dampness and decay.

 A group of people arrived at the end of the street.

This is already a suburb of the Emerald King City, far away from the core area, so the main body of the ruins on the roadside has also quietly changed.

 Elves live in perishable treehouses.

  turned into many stone houses made of older and more durable materials.

“This is the area where the trolls once lived. The place in front, if I read it correctly, should be the camp of the Troll Empire in the Emerald King City.”

 After entering the stone house area.

Linden became very active. As he walked, he introduced:

"Just like the Jade Cangting now has an entire Windchaser camp in Rapids City, the Troll Empire was at its peak back then. It also had its own camps in the main cities of all major races, and even had troops directly stationed there, with far-reaching influence. It surpasses any race or force in the future."

“Unfortunately, due to the curse of the gods, very few historical materials of the Troll Empire have been handed down. Only people like me who have the ability to listen to the echoes of the long river of history have the opportunity to glimpse the scales and claws of the Troll Empire back then..."

Matthew patiently listened to Linden's narration.

 This man's face is indeed ugly, and the fantasy in his mind is more like that of a madman.

 But Matthew had to admit it.

 He is a true historian.

Linden's perception and intelligence are both very high. In fact, only people with an intelligence exceeding 15 points have the chance to break through the intellectual mystery and perceive the real history.

Matthew can even understand Lyndon's madness to a certain extent.

 After all, history is a very unpopular subject in the continent of Irondor.

Except for Rolling Stone, there are no history courses at all in non-lawyer-related schools.

 Archaeologists and history teachers are rare and weird existences in society.

 When ordinary people hear the names of these two professions, they even need to think about what they are for!

usually.

 These two professions will be held part-time by mages.

 Matthew is a positive example.

 Those like Linden, who have the ability to contact history but are not qualified to become a mage, will have a very painful life.

 They are a minority within a minority.

 Because there are cognitive deviations from ordinary people, they are unable to integrate into normal society, and they have some useless knowledge in their minds, so madness is inevitable.

 Introduced by Linden.

 The group walked through an area full of stone pillars in the Stone House District.

 There are many murals carved on both sides.

 The content on the mural unabashedly expresses the trolls' worship of Lao Er and the Purple Palace.

“The **** worshiped by the trolls is an ancient being named Puer. Pu's spokesperson in the world is the troll priest. The priest masters all religious rituals related to the god.”

“Among this series of rituals, the “Theosophical Conference” held once a month is the most serious and solemn, and also the most absurd in the eyes of outsiders. "

“You see, the content of this painting is the Theosophical Assembly—

 When the conference is held, men and women of the entire clan will meet openly and have free and mixed fellowship with each other.

 They will be united in spirit and body under the witness of the gods, and they will share each other's beautiful bodies without selfish desires. "

“Under the extreme worship of fertility and **** worship, the trolls formed a mixed upbringing model based on clans.

Male trolls in each clan treat their children equally, and they consider them to be their own children, which is extremely rare in the history of civilization of all races..."

"In addition, another feature of the Troll Empire is that the priest system does not affect the rise of magic civilization. Under normal circumstances, this extreme worship of gods will hinder the development of society, and it will be difficult to form a powerful magic civilization. But the Troll Empire is an alternative. I guess this has something to do with the **** Poole. Although the gods deny the true existence of Poole, I think he does exist, and it is precisely because of his deliberate guidance that the Troll Empire Only then can a prominent magical civilization be miraculously developed through the priest system..."

Linden talked eloquently.

 At this time.

Stanley's brother-in-law suddenly interrupted:

“So do these things you mentioned have anything to do with the treasure we are looking for?”

 Linden said decisively:

 “Of course!”

 “Do you know what you are looking for?”

 “I know! Let me tell you!”

As he spoke, he pointed to a mural nearby. The content on the mural was similar to what Matthew and the others had seen on the stone wall before.

It's all a huge cylinder below.

A ring full of oppression above.

the difference is.

This mural is more complete, and Matthew can see a wider and smoother cross-section under the cylinder.

“The treasure that the green dragon entrusted us to find is called the “Crown of Sin.” "

“In troll culture, “crown” is a very specific term. It refers to one thing precisely, which is the **** of a male troll, which is the cylinder below. "

Linden danced and pointed at the mural and explained:

“And corresponding to the crown is the pattern above, which is also the ring symbolizing the purple palace of the female troll. Its technical term is the "Holy Grail". "

“Look, the crown and the chalice are a pair.”

“So theoretically, if there is a Guilty Crown, there is also a Guilty Grail!”

 “They are one.”

 Hear this.

 A glint suddenly flashed in Matthew's eyes.

The Holy Grail of Sin? !
