A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees

Chapter 106: What does it feel like to cast a spell?

Chapter 106 What is it like to cast a spell?

…

Malicious polymorph.

This is a control spell that can turn any target in the field of vision into one of the above three creatures.

It got its name because mages usually use this spell with bad intentions.

As one of the practical magic skills that can be learned at the third level, a mage who has mastered the malicious transformation technique can also learn its advanced spells after entering the fifth level:

Group deformation.

This is a real killer, talking and laughing can turn a group of people into panicked little animals.

It's just that the Malicious Form of Mass Transfiguration is directly inherited from Malicious Transfiguration.

So Matthew's choice now is very important.

The counter-intuitive aspect of this spell is—

The learning difficulty of the three malicious forms of frog, wild boar and goat is from easy to difficult.

That's right.

Turning people into frogs is the easiest, followed by wild boars, and goats are the most difficult.

Matthew was also puzzled at first, but after understanding the mechanism of this spell, he understood it.

It turns out that although the effective times of the spells of the three malicious forms are the same, there are significant differences in the stability of the forms—

After you turn an enemy into a frog, once something hurts or even touches him, the spell may fail immediately.

Before Zeller turned Xinwak into a frog, he deliberately put it in a glass bottle to prevent the spell from failing prematurely.

And if it is a little wild boar, you may need to push him a few times hard, so that the malicious form may not be able to maintain.

As for the most stable goats.

Mages can even punch goats in the ass...

Kick a few feet!

This is the difference in stability.

The more stable the malicious form, the more difficult it is to learn, which is also reasonable.

Of course, too strong stability is not without hidden dangers.

In the history of the alliance, there have been several tragic cases where a mage turned an enemy into a goat, only to have his **** or crotch ruthlessly smashed by the goat.

Goat horns are no joke.

It can be seen from this that although malicious transformation is one of the magic skills, it is not zero risk.

Whether it is a goat or a small wild boar, they all have a certain ability to rampage and attack.

Matthew pondered for a long time.

Finally chose "goat".

He felt that something as outrageous as being poked by a goat should never happen to him.

If this kind of case really happened, he would have to take responsibility for the two undead guards next to him.

As for the difficulty of learning.

Matthew thought about how he had mastered several wilderness forms. Both the latter and Malicious Transformation were related to the field of transformation, which should be helpful for learning spells.

Although changing others and changing yourself are completely different things.

Matthew's attitude is still very optimistic.

Now.

He took out the items needed for the "concluding ceremony" from the material bag:

A standardized spell contract.

A pinch of goat underbelly fluff.

Two billy goatee beards over 10 years old.

A small amount of goat horn is ground into powder.

One whole goat placenta.

After placing it smoothly, according to the requirements of the spell ceremony, Matthew activated the spell in a low voice.

The candle on the corner of the table suddenly accelerated the speed and magnitude of the flickering.

The sheep blood and placenta on the table smelled foul and evil.

Matthew's eyes and palms glowed with blue-gray light due to the overflow of mana.

Eerie murmurs echoed from the basement all the time.

For a moment.

The light in the basement disappears for a second.

…

「Reminder: You have successfully concluded the "goat contract", and the target form of your malicious transformation is determined to be "goat"!

You have gained some knowledge about the body structure of goats..."

…

Matthew closed his eyes, quietly sorting out the knowledge poured into his mind by the magic ritual.

Gradually.

He learned more about goats.

He can directly outline the appearance and form of a goat in his mind.

He can also distinguish the beautiful features or the hideous features that belong to the goat aesthetic.

This feeling is so wonderful.

This is something he has never experienced before as a wild beast.

That is a kind of understanding and control of animal forms in a simple way.

"not enough!"

Matthew opened his eyes.

To successfully master Malicious Shapeshifting, one must understand every detail of Malicious Form in great detail.

Concluding ceremony provides a shortcut.

But it was only a framework of a goat successfully established in his mind.

want to go further.

Matthew not only needs to learn the subsequent theory and knowledge of spellcasting, but also needs to have a deeper understanding of goats!

About this.

Master Ronan has long given the only way:

"There are often no shortcuts for spells that are related to the transformation system.

You must become an experience group and regard yourself as a member of the changing goal. The best way is to get along with the goal day and night.

One day, if you find yourself resonating with it, then congratulations. At this time, your spells are not only getting started, but also the degree of mastery is also a small success.

As for the real mastery.

Then it will take a lot of hard work. "

Matthew's experience of Master Ronan is still regarded as a standard.

So early the next morning.

Before going to work, he got up early in the morning, went to the suburbs to find a farmer whom he had met several times, and bought a goat from him.

When buying a goat, Matthew had a whim, if the one he was familiar with was a female goat, then wouldn’t it be the female goat that was transformed by the malicious transformation technique?

Although female goats also have horns, they are generally much less threatening, right?

That's it, an hour later.

Matthew held a handful of hay, led a docile female goat in his hand, followed by A Bing hidden in the cloak, and leisurely came to the office hall of the Lord's Mansion.

Punch to work!

It was still deserted in the office this morning.

In fact, the daily government affairs of Rolling Stone Town are handled by the five-member committee of the city hall, and the general office of the lord's mansion usually only handles major events that threaten the territory and a very small amount of public affairs.

And the latter was rounded up by Zeller alone.

So when Zeller was away, it was no different from Matthew's oak forest.

When Matthew led the sheep in, Rhaegar was reading a newspaper.

It was a periodical called "Purgatory Tabloid", and the lord read it with great interest.

When he saw Matthew, he subconsciously said "Good morning!".

Matthew also said hello politely.

It wasn't until Matthew was about to walk into his room that Rhaegar suddenly noticed something was wrong.

He put down the newspaper and walked over, pointing at the goat wonderingly:

"Did I tell you that you can't bring pets to work?"

Matthew blinked:

"No."

Rega said bluntly:

"There are no rules, no rules, sorry Matthew, I am not targeting you, but the Lord's Mansion does not allow pets to work!"

"Don't ask when this rule was made, even if it was just set today, you have to implement it, after all, I am the boss."

Matthew tries to quibble:

"But what if I say, she is my family?"

Rega widened his eyes:

"Not even a girlfriend!"

Matthew was amazed at Rhaegar's brain circuit.

He simply told the other party that he was learning Malicious Transfiguration.

Rega touched his chin when he heard the words, showing a troubled expression:

"But the goat smells really bad, it will affect other people's work."

Matthew almost couldn't hold back his laughter:

"Other people's jobs... mean reading newspapers?"

Rega looked at him dissatisfied:

"What do you know? This is called caring about world events. Although the news in the League Weekly and Purgatory tabloids is not always true, the turmoil of many major events is often reflected in those distorted reports. As the lord of Rolling Stone Town, I should be responsible together with the important responsibility of interpreting the changes in the world."

Matthew agrees with this.

He is also very interested in the League Weekly, but he has not subscribed because of his lack of money.

Then he asked Rhaegar:

"Can I read your newspaper?"

Regar said generously:

"Of course you can, but you can borrow the latest issue after I finish reading it. Besides, when you are reading the purgatory tabloids, you are not allowed to use scissors to cut out some peachy pictures!"

Matthew asked in surprise:

"Has anyone done this before?"

Rega said meaningfully:

"You should ask, which one of the people who ask me to borrow newspapers has never done this kind of thing."

Matthew showed a wow expression. He suddenly became interested in the purgatory tabloids that he was not interested in.

"I'll get you the last issue, wait!"

Rega regained his composure, pointed at the goat and said:

"Forget it today, but not next time."

Matthew looked at him pleadingly.

The latter was unmoved.

Matthew said again:

"Then let's talk about sword oil."

Rega suddenly regained his spirits, he smiled and patted the docile female goat:

"If you want to say that, I can indeed consider making an exception for you, but I don't have the sword oil with me. After get off work tomorrow, I will go to your house to find you."

As he spoke, he walked back to his office in a good mood.

Act as the lord's spell advisor.

Matthew's job is pretty idle.

Although it is quiet here, it is incomparable to the basement after all, so there is no way for in-depth study, so I can only read books to pass the time, or do some superficial magic theory research.

A blink of an eye.

Most of the day passed like this.

During this period, Matthew did not forget to get close to the goat.

It's just that although this female goat is docile, she is very shy.

Even when Matthew reached out to touch her head, she would dodge subconsciously.

This made Matthew a little depressed:

"When Rhaegar touched her in the morning, why didn't she hide?"

After eating lunch prepared by Mrs. Wesley.

Matthew was ready to move.

His eyes flicked to Rhaegar's office from time to time.

He knew that according to the habit, Rhaegar would take a nap soon, and that would be a good time for him to slip away.

Sure enough, middle-aged and elderly people have very regular schedules.

A few minutes later, Rega stretched out in pajamas.

Unexpectedly, Rega did not leave the office, but walked towards his office:

"It's hard work after half a day's work."

He looked tired.

Matthew thought to himself, is reading the newspaper really so tiring?

Rhaegar suddenly asked him:

"Matthew, I want to ask you a question—what does it feel like to cast a spell?"

Matthew thought about it, and introduced it seriously:

…

"When our mages cast spells, they can be roughly divided into three stages, and each of these three stages has three kinds of feelings.

The first stage is the stage of preparing for the casting posture and chanting spells.

At this time, we will be forced to recall all the content of the relevant spells, and the negative emotions such as pain, difficulty, confusion, and sadness when learning the spells will also flood into our minds.

This process will not only consume our mental power and mana, but also pose a huge challenge to our will.

The feeling at this stage is pain, stagnation, and strenuousness.

The second stage is the stage when the chanting ends and the accumulation of magic energy is completed.

There are a lot of magical elements gathering on us at this time, we are carrying a lot of pressure, and this pressure forces us to release.

But we have to hold back until the key points.

This feeling is hard to describe, as if deliberately forbearing before urinating.

The feeling at this stage is aggrieved, but fortunately, it lasts for a short time, at most a few tenths of a second.

The final stage is the moment of spell release.

At this stage, because the pressure accumulated before will be released in one breath, we will feel a hearty sense of pleasure.

This stage lasts about one to three seconds, and the higher the spell, the longer it lasts.

The feeling during this period is very refreshing, and it is easy to get addicted to it.

Many mages often stay in place for a second or two after releasing advanced spells, which is for this reason.

This is also called "swing after casting" by people who don't understand the principle of casting spells.

Probably such a complicated situation.

Casting spells is actually a very dangerous thing, it tests a mage's spirit, mind, and will all the time.

It is far less beautiful than ordinary people imagine, and there are many pains and horrors, but it does have a unique charm.

What's the matter, why do you ask this question suddenly, do you want to cast spells too? "

…

Rega pouted:

"Who doesn't want to cast a spell? I just saw such a news."

As he spoke, he handed the League Weekly to Matthew.

Matthew took a closer look. Rhaegar pressed his finger on the content of the tofu block. It recorded that several mages were addicted to magic and went on the road of crime, and stole a treasure named "Speed Gem" from the alliance secret vault. Treasure news.

This thing is said to be able to greatly shorten the cooling time of casting spells and break the daily casting limit.

Currently, these mages are on the reward list of the Seven Saints Alliance.

Matthew's heart moved, and he secretly wrote down these names.

"It's a pity that they fled in the north, otherwise they might be able to exchange for a bounty."

Rhaegar obviously had the same idea.

Then he yawned and left the office hall without looking back.

Matthew waited for a while, and seeing that Rheiga had no intention of turning back, he resolutely left work and left.

It turned out that when he was leading the goat through the corridor, he met Mrs. Wesley.

"Good afternoon, Mrs. Wesley."

Matthew greeted her very politely.

The latter stopped cleaning and looked up at Matthew:

"Good afternoon, little Matthew, where are you going?"

Matthew said without changing his face:

"Go out for a stroll and come back."

Ms. Wesley put it bluntly:

"You want to get off work, right?"

Matthew smiled shyly:

"Isn't it a little bad to do that?"

Ms. Wesley shook her head:

"It's good to get off work early, young people should get off work early, so that they have time to talk about love."

She cleaned it twice, and suddenly said to Matthew who was about to leave:

"But now I know why Rhaegar recruited you."

Matthew asked curiously:

"Why?"

Mrs. Wesley said earnestly:

"Before you came, he was the most idle person in the lord's mansion."

Matthew is unknown so:

"Um?"

Mrs. Wesley swept a pile of dust into the corner, with a smile in her voice:

"Not anymore."

…

In the oak forest.

Matthew is busy like a hardworking bee.

The task of planting trees during this period is heavy.

He must command the zombies to work hard.

A few days down.

Matthew has successfully planted a mini oak forest further north.

He was worried that the grove would be too far away, unable to form a collective effect with the original oak forest.

But the oak tree domain told him to worry too much.

Even if there is an open space and the end of the Scar of the Dead.

Matthew's oak forest is still a whole.

And during planting.

In addition to extensively cultivating green oak trees, Matthew also picked a certain day to plant more than a dozen man-eating trees in a specific area.

These man-eating trees look no different from ordinary oak trees.

Only **** living creatures within one meter of it will have slow attack movements.

To prevent accidents.

Matthew also put up warning signs at different intersections beside the man-eating tree and outside the forest—

「Matthew's Forest Farm (with man-eating trees!!)」

The appearance of the man-eating tree was not rejected by the oak field.

on the contrary.

Matthew could sense that the other oaks actually liked these man-eating trees.

Only the oak goblins complained about this.

But as long as Lulu doesn't speak, Matthew doesn't care.

Besides the oak trees, during this week, Matthew also transplanted the tea trees brought back from Junliu Island into the forest.

The climate of Rolling Stone Town is quite different from that of Junliu Island, but theoretically it should be more suitable for the cultivation of tea trees.

In order to ensure that the tea tree can produce seeds, Matthew did not use green liquid on it.

Plants that have been spawned will not be able to produce seeds for a long time.

This is common sense in the natural field.

You can magically spawn a plant very quickly, and that's because the seed itself is life that already exists.

But this spawning is not without cost.

Excessively overdrawn vitality takes a long time to repay.

This is one of the reasons druids usually don't actively use rapid growth.

…

In a blink of an eye, it will be seven days later.

In the catacombs.

Matthew paced back and forth among the zombies.

In the past week, he worked tirelessly to plant trees, and finally saved 168 enhancement points.

Now comes the problem.

Which zombie should I choose to strengthen?

This is not an easy decision.

At the beginning, Matthew only had a team of skeleton soldiers, and the options were very narrow. It was considered lucky to be able to choose Ah Bing.

But now in front of him is a dense sea of zombies!

119 silver moon zombies, including kobolds, gnolls, runts, lemurs, humans and even dragon blood warriors!

Of course there is also a zombie lady who is not Silver Moon.

Matthew observed for a long time, and even used the balance perception, but it was still difficult to make a decision.

The general qualities of the zombies are good, but they are average. It is difficult for him to choose the best one.

Picking and picking, Matthew was a little annoyed, and he couldn't help but think suddenly:

"Why don't you choose another person?"

One thought of this.

Matthew suddenly let go of the rope in his hand.

Let the female goat walk freely among the zombies.

Who knows the next second.

The female goat suddenly let out a cry of fear:
