A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees Chapter 97

  Chapter 97 Lorraine's magical use of spells

  In the hotel lobby, a man with a dissolute temperament sat on the edge of a table surrounded by many idlers.

His dazzling blond hair was loosely scattered on his shoulders, and the satin cardigan on his upper body was opened as far as possible, exposing the lush and thick chest hair inside; The dazzling legendary charms hanging next to it remind others of his status as either rich or noble all the time.

   Coupled with that flamboyant temperament that is about to come out, who else could it be if it wasn't Lorraine?

   Matthew greeted the innkeeper, Truger, ordered two glasses of juice for himself and Laila, and then walked over.

  When Lorraine saw Matthew, he immediately jumped off the corner of the table happily.

  He pushed away the idlers who were in the way, opened his arms and cheered:

   "Matthew? You came back just in time, and I'm going to tell them about your glorious history!"

   Matthew can't stand the poet's enthusiasm.

  After a light hug, he calmly stopped Lorraine from going further, pulled a chair and sat down quickly:

   "My affairs are not worth mentioning. Why don't you tell me about you? Didn't you enjoy yourself on Shengji Island? Why did you come back so soon? How is the atmosphere on the island?"

   One heard Sanchee Island.

  Lorland regained his energy immediately, and he sat down on the table in front of Matthew.

   Then he held a glass of honey wine and said happily:

"Excellent!!

  You don't know what happened to me there, uh, it was boring for a while, when I was caught by a group of Naga and forced to go to the bottom of the sea.

  At that time, I was so tired. Every day when I opened my eyes, all the creatures I saw were Naga. Although there are different flavors among Nagas, some are big and gentle, and some are small and timeless.

  But after a long time, that's all.

   So I managed to escape.

Later, I landed on Shengji Island as I wished. My friend really didn't say anything. She heard about my experience and knew that I was no longer interested in Naga, so she arranged for "Sea Elf" and "Girl Crabman" "Come and entertain me.

how to say? The taste of the sea elf young woman is not bad.

  It's not good for the crab girls. They always smell like rotten seafood.

  Seeing that they were pitiful, I asked them to play with me on the island for three days before sending them away.

   At that time, I was still in a depressed mood. The scenery of Sanji Island was good, but it was not as fun as I imagined.

   Until my friend finished one thing and came to accompany me in person..."

   Matthew's heart moved:

   "Your friend?"

   "That's right, she is the stone elemental beauty I mentioned to you!"

  Lorraine said happily:

   "Unexpected, right? The stone element in the main material world is too rare. At first I wondered if she lied to me in the letter, but after meeting, I knew that the stone element she was talking about was herself!"

   "It's not convenient for me to repeat the details later. In short, I spent a few wonderful nights with her."

   At this moment, the boss, Truger, came over. He brought Matthew and Leila each a glass of full-bodied juice, and said with a smile:

   "Welcome back. Old Jitou has mentioned the two of you once before. If he knows that you can all return safely, he will be very happy."

  The two nodded slightly.

   Wait for Truger to leave.

  Matthew hurriedly used a "purification food" on the juice on the table.

  In the field of vision.

   A dash or two of dappled sheen that symbolizes bacteria and viruses is countered by bold greenery.

  Matthew took a sip in relief.

  The taste of the juice is really not bad.

   "Lorraine, I have a question."

  Matthew asked curiously while drinking:

   "This question may involve privacy, but it is mainly out of academic curiosity. What I mean is—the structure of stone elements is not the same as that of ordinary humanoid creatures?"

  Lorraine rightly said:

   "Of course, at first I had no way out, like holding a rock, it was really no fun."

   "Until I thought of the spell "Fosmise into Mud"..."

   Poof—!

   Matthew sprayed Laila's half body with a sip of juice on the spot!

   "Is this how to turn fossils into mud?"

  He looked at Lorraine in shock.

  Unexpectedly, Lorraine also looked at Matthew with a confused expression:

   "Isn't fossilization into mud invented for this purpose?"

  Matthew gave Lyla an apologetic look.

  The latter shook his clothes indifferently, asked Truger for a key, and went upstairs to change.

   "Spells certainly weren't invented for this sort of thing."

  Matthew turned his eyes back to Lorraine, and corrected him seriously:

   "As far as I know, this is a spell invented to resolve specific roadblocks or terrain."

  Lorland asked back:

   "Are you sure? Can't the roadblock be moved or dismantled? Do you have to invent a spell to deal with it?"

  Matthew frowned.

  Lorland took advantage of the victory and pursued:

   "You said that you mages are very good, why did you suddenly invent a spell that can turn stones into sewage?"

   "There must be some kind of strong motivation for this."

   "And I think love that can cross races is a strong enough motivation. What do you think, Matthew?"

  Matthew was silent.

  Lorrain further commented sharply:

   "Actually, there are many spells that can support my point of view, for example, the most commonly used "Mage Hand" by your mages! "

  Matthew has question marks all over his head:

   "What happened to the mage's hand?"

  Lorland blinked:

   "It is said that in the Age of Enlightenment, many mages would lock themselves in the mage's tower to study spells all day long. In this case, it is common to not see other people for several years, let alone the opposite sex."

   "So they invented the "Mage Hand" in order to experience the feeling of being comforted by a hand other than their own. "

   "Thinking about it this way, those house mages in ancient times are quite pitiful."

   "About this, I have a unique theory. You can judge whether a mage has a partner by observing the color of the "Mage Hand" and whether he is happy with his partner..."

  Matthew heard his temples jumping up and down.

  He wanted to refute.

   But looking at Lorraine's confident and eloquent expression, he realized that it was not wise to argue with the other party.

  The main thing is to continue the debate like this.

   Maybe Matthew himself will be convinced by him!

   "Your spell understanding is indeed unique."

  Matthew could only compliment against his will:

   “Or you could write a book in a related field, which might sell better than your novel.”

  Lorland's eyes lit up:

   "You're right, let me think about it, how about the title of this book being "Lorand's Magical Use of Magic"?

   But since it is a serious work in the field of magic, I am definitely not authoritative enough as a bard. I have to find a powerful magic consultant, so the only person who can do it is you, Matthew!

  In addition to providing the necessary spell knowledge, you also have to help me speak out.

   How about this, Matthew, let me see your mage's hand first? "

   Lorraine showed a strange smile.

"I reject!"

  Matthew immediately and strongly rejected Lorraine's invitation.

   But then he explained two sentences to himself:

   "I am a necromancer, and I have been exposed to negative energy all year round. The hands of the mage will inevitably be polluted. This is not enough to be a typical case."

   "And my mana is low, not worth mentioning, so for the position of magic consultant, Lorraine, you should hire someone else."

  Hearing this, Lorraine suddenly showed an expression of displeasure:

"Hey Matthew, you are not enough friends. You can deceive others by saying that you have low mana, but I don't count it here. Someone who can create a tornado of undead and easily blow up the altar of the great demon, No matter how low the mana is, it can't be hooked.”

  Matthew looked at him with some surprise:

   "You know everything?"

   Lorraine puffed out her chest proudly, opening more at the gusset of her jacket.

  It was only then that Matthew noticed that this guy's chest hair had been specially trimmed into the shape of a heart, looking as flirty as he wanted.

   "The bard knows it all, my dear.

  High-level bards have a professional feature called "Wind and Shadow".

   That is, major events that occur within 20 to 100 kilometers around us have a certain chance of being perceived by us. If a poet's perception is high enough, he can even witness some fragments of the scene of the major event in the form of visions.

   If you ask me, blowing up the demon altar is nothing, but the tornado is really cool!

  I followed the vision all the way on Sanji Island.

   Even the brains and intestines of the zombies were clearly seen when they were thrown out by the tornado! "

   Lorraine said proudly.

   "Chasing wind and shadow"?

  The bards in this world actually have this ability?

   It's no wonder that whenever something big happens, it will always be known.

  With these human-shaped news transmitters, it is almost impossible to do a big thing in a low-key manner.

  Matthew secretly made a note of this.

   Seeing that the topic had been successfully shifted, he simply took the initiative to talk about his experience in the rainforest.

  From landing on Junliu Island by myself, to visiting Yu Lian in Kordo City, to returning to the rainforest to fight the Dragon Worship Cult, and finally ending with Blinken fleeing in despair.

  He mentioned many of the details in passing, but Lorraine still listened carefully.

  However, what surprised Matthew was that what this guy cared most about during his adventure career during this period was actually the fire dragon!

   "And then, did you rescue him? I mean that poor dragon named Alu? He's so fat now, it must be inconvenient to move around?"

   Lorraine asked with concern.

  Matthew reminded:

   "Alutron is a male earth fire dragon."

  Lorland disagrees:

   "I just want to talk to him about his experience. Don't you think he is very powerful. After being squeezed by the Dragon Sect for five full years, he is still full of energy."

  Seeing that he has a strong thirst for knowledge.

  Matthew had no choice but to tell:

   "Because the dragon was too fat to squeeze into the path leading to the Underdark, the Black Banyan tribe finally took him in.

  The rainforest is rich in ecology, but the Black Banyan tribe can't afford to support him. I'm afraid he has to learn to hunt and prey himself.

  But it's not without good news. Before I left, he told me that he was going to lose weight and that he was going to be a vegetarian for a while.

   If he can become a vegetarian, there may be a chance to improve his health. "

  Lorland was amazed when he heard it, and kept saying that he wanted to go to that fire dragon to exchange his experience in the future.

  The two chatted for a while.

   After lunch.

  Matthew still didn't wait for the old Jitou. He originally planned to leave Zeshui City with Laila in the afternoon and continue on his way.

  Naihe met Lorraine, who enthusiastically pulled Matthew and said that he would treat him to a good show.

  The time is tonight.

  Considering that the drama theater in Zeshui City is indeed well-known in the south, Matthew agreed with hesitation.

  At that moment, he asked the boss to open a room, and explained the situation clearly to Laila, who said that she also wanted to set foot in Zeshui City more.

   So the two sides split up.

   Lorraine took Matthew to buy tickets for the evening.

  Laila walked towards the deeper stone gate alone.

  Southern Drama Theater.

   Outside the ticket office, there was a long queue.

  The men, women and children in the team are generally in good spirits, and their clothes are cleaner than ordinary people on the street.

   "They are probably servants of the rich and powerful in Zeshui City, and they came to buy tickets for their masters."

  Lorland pointed to the team and said:

"This theater is very famous. The last time we came, their circus and several important actors were invited to tour in several cities in the north. They just came back a few days ago. Tonight's performance is a tour It is said that they have prepared a brand new script, costumes and performance for the first scene of the team's return, which is really exciting!"

   "You can see how popular this place is when you see so many people queuing up."

   "Of course, if their script and performance can please or even conquer me, I will naturally not be stingy with applause, but if the result disappoints me, I will have to criticize severely!"

  Matthew saw a poster standing next to the ticket office.

   In the center of the poster is a handsome man with a bright smile. He shows two rows of white teeth, and behind him is a fake island scene.

  The man is surrounded by several young girls who are fully exposed.

   Somehow, this layout structure made Matthew feel familiar.

"Brandon White, the head of the Southern Drama Theater, a big killer who specializes in attracting female audiences, Zeshui City and several surrounding cities, from ninety-year-old women to nine-year-old girls, all like him .”

   Lorraine blew a whistle:

   "But I think his smile is a bit unnatural, and his body movements are not as good as that clown over there!"

  Matthew took a look, and sure enough, he found half of a clown's face in the corner of the pictorial, which seemed to be an insignificant character.

   And right above the poster is the name of the show—

  「A particularly wonderful story」

  A better translation would be—

  「A good show」

   "Let's go, let's buy tickets."

   Lorraine walked directly towards the ticket office.

  He found the second person in line and handed over a handful of gold coins:

   "Re-queuing won't take up much of your time, sir."

  The man looked very angry when Lorraine patted his shoulder at first.

  But soon, the joy from the heart was squeezed out on the face:

   "Of course! Of course! You're right sir, I'd love to line up again."

   As he spoke, he consciously left the team and alternated positions with Lorraine.

   Lorraine flashed his gleaming biceps triumphantly at Matthew in the team.

   "Hi sir, how many tickets are there?"

  Maybe because of seeing the scene just now, the attitude of the conductor lady is very good.

   "Two, the best position."

  Lorland rested his arms casually on the window of the ticket office.

  Miss conductor took a quick look at his chest, two blushes flew up on her cheeks:

"One hundred and twenty gold coins, sir, you can choose to experience the charm of the theater up close in the first row, or you can have a room in the box on the second floor, where the view is better and quieter, whether you and your partner No one will bother you when you do anything.”

   "Only 120? Not as expensive as I thought."

   Lorraine said with a smile.

  He fumbled around in the storage props for a while, and grabbed a handful of gold coins of different shapes.

  Miss conductor suddenly looked embarrassed:

   "This is, Naga's gold coin? Sorry, sir, we only accept standard gold coins from the Seven Saints Alliance."

  Lorland was a little dissatisfied, and immediately slapped a gold brick in front of her:

   "Then do you accept this?"

  The conductor looked dumbfounded, she said blankly:

   "I, I have to ask the leader about this."

   Matthew stopped her in the past.

"What's wrong?"

   he asked Lorraine.

   "My alliance gold coins are used up, and she won't accept Naga's gold coins, nor gold bricks. Do I need to find someone who can cash them now?"

  Lorland complained, and immediately looked at Matthew:

   "Do you have gold coins on you?"

   Matthew nodded in pain for a long time before handing over the full amount of gold coins.

   "Thank you, just treat it as if you lent it to me. I will find a place where I can exchange the money tomorrow, and I will return it to you later."

   Lorraine paid the money and put away the gold bricks and Naga gold coins.

  He took two tickets from the dazed conductor, and handed Matthew one of them and a yellow comic book.

   "The Book of Plumpness?"

  Matthew was a little surprised.

   "Of course you need collateral to borrow money from others."

   Lorraine smiled and patted him on the shoulder:

   "Let's go, Matthew, let's go back and talk again, before my gold bricks attract more thieves."

   The two of them just walked out a few steps.

  Matthew could feel a lot of people following behind him.

  And these people seem to come from different forces.

   "Is this the charm of gold bricks?"

  He looked at Lorraine with some envy.

  The latter still walked with his head held high and fearless.

   When he arrived at the Jungle Dance Hotel and there were still two streets away, he even took Matthew along the path!

   Just a moment later.

  Lorland looked at the empty alley in surprise and said:

   "What's the matter, are you not even fooled by gold brick fishing now?"

  Matthew walked past him with a smile, and patted Lorraine on the back:

   "Let's go, maybe the pickpockets have become smarter."

at the same time.

  In an alley two streets away.

   After a muffled sound.

  The last pickpocket fell on the pile of people in embarrassment.

   At this time, there were more than a dozen people lying on the ground in the alley. They either fell into a coma, or they were conscious but weak, and could only lie on the ground and moan continuously.

   And the instigator of all this is a man in black wearing a cloak.

   After finishing all this, he turned and left smartly.

  However, just as the man in black was about to walk out of the alley.

   He stopped suddenly.

  In the horrified eyes of all the pickpockets.

  He turned back silently.

   Immediately after.

   That pair of dry bones without any flesh and blood.

   began to work on the weak flesh of the pickpockets!

  「Hint: Your summoned A Bing defeated the pickpockets who heard the news.

  A Bing awakened part of his past life memory, and he began to have a little interest in the money of the living.

  A Bing began to pick up the wealth from the pickpockets.

  Your summoned A Bing has obtained a new keyword "Intermittently picking up gold".

  Intermittently picking up gold (gray): In most cases, when he picks up loot and gold coins for you, he will not be greedy.

  A Bing's keyword "Elementary Enlightenment" effect has been improved—

  Elementary enlightenment (enhanced): A Bing's current intelligence is equivalent to that of a 7-year-old child. "
