A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees

  Chapter 24 Rope Master

  …

   "Shadow Attack" is a clever attack method. It can use the enemy's shadow to launch a short displacement, and then instantly create extremely high damage behind the enemy.

  Matthew pinched a spell dummy on the spot and let Ah Bing demonstrate it.

  The results are pretty shocking.

   "If you are hit by A Bing's sneak attack, let alone the crispy skin, the melee units around the third level and below the middle armor will have to shed a layer of skin!"

   What's more terrible.

  Sneak attack is just a series of combos after the rogue gets close.

  Take Ah Bing's knife dancer as an example.

   After the sneak attack, it can immediately pick up the extremely damaging ultimate move of the funeral dance.

  It is difficult for low-level professionals to resist this sudden and continuous explosive attack.

   "Sure enough, when fighting rogues, not being approached is the first principle."

Matthew doesn't think how long Garcia's armor can last when he is entangled by elite rogues. In his opinion, the spell armor is the last underwear. When you are forced to reveal your underwear, your life is gone. It's not far to get it right.

   Of course, this does not mean that underwear is not important.

  …

  Another blue keyword is "poisoning".

   This is an ability that includes a series of steps such as poison identification, toxin extraction, poison bottle production, and weapon application.

  Due to limited energy.

  Matthew has little knowledge of herbalism and toxicology.

   Now that A Bing has strengthened his ability, it can be regarded as making up for his shortcomings in this area.

   "In the future, I can ask Ah Bing to collect poison, come back to make poison bottles, and make more. He can use it himself, and my crossbow bolts will be more deadly."

  …

  If it is said that the sneak attack and poison poisoning are still within Matthew's cognition.

   Then the last two white keywords are hard to understand.

  What the **** is "farming skills"?

   Could it be that Ah Bing was actually a farmer before his death?

   "How about feeding the cubs"?

   Was it because he had raised piglets and other small animals before his death, or was it that A Bing was actually a girl before his death?

   Or maybe he's a man with a lot of experience raising human cubs?

  Matthew looked at A Bing suspiciously.

  The latter still responded to Matthew's gaze blankly.

after awhile.

   While Matthew looked away.

  He found a place at the corner of the bed and quietly sat down.

  Matthew felt a little helpless.

   "I didn't expect that the gray keyword just brushed out would take effect!"

  …

   "Slowdown (gray): Your skeleton has learned passive sabotage when not in combat"

  …

   Fortunately, it is limited to the non-combat state!

   If it is in battle, it will also sabotage.

  Then Matthew has to consider whether to give him all the subsequent strengthening times.

  Look over the gray keywords.

   The good news is.

  The last two keywords are both purple.

   The bad news is.

  These two keywords don't look very serious.

  …

  「Shadow Dance Step (Purple): Ni's skeleton can quickly and violently twist its crotch to achieve the effect of pleasing and charming the target.

   At the same time, when dancing, part of its dance steps can cross the shadow world, so as to achieve the purpose of speeding up and approaching the target.

  …

  Rope Master (Purple): Your skeleton is good at using rope (including binding) skills, including rope in combat.

  Requirement: Before starting, please prepare at least one strong enough magic rope for him. "

  …

   "So what does the profession of knife dancer teach?"

  Matthew fell into deep doubts.

  He looked at Ah Bing again.

  The latter hesitated.

   Then he got up and twisted his hips at Matthew.

  The air fluctuated slightly.

   Matthew's eyelids twitched.

   That moment.

  His brain felt dizzy!

"stop!"

  He held A Bing's crotch that was about to move.

   "I understand, the shadow dance steps are indeed a bit sharp, this should be the power of some kind of ritual magic."

  Matthew rubbed his temples trying to wake himself up.

   Continue like this.

  He might feel that the skeleton in front of him has become more beautiful.

   This is the effect of charm.

  His will is not low, and he is the master of Ah Bing, so he will be affected.

  If someone else...

   Matthew suddenly had a little more expectation in his heart!

  He looked at A Bing carefully.

  I found that this skeleton is quite different from when I first picked it out.

  His bones are plump and tough, and there are a lot of silver light spots deposited inside. Compared with other skeletons, he is cleaner—so clean that it is almost spotless!

  He has only bones that are as white as jade with silver edges all over his body.

   "Have you bathed yourself?"

   Matthew asked thoughtfully.

   Ah Bing froze for a moment.

   Ten seconds later.

  He nodded uncertainly.

  Matthew looked helpless.

   Ah Bing is good at everything and has full potential, but his intelligence is too low.

   This is also a common problem of undead creatures.

  He is as powerful as the bone dragon Xiaobo, but he only has 4 points of intelligence—of course, intelligence does not completely represent IQ, but IQs with too low intelligence are usually not very good.

  A Bing's current mentality is equivalent to that of a 5-year-old child.

  It's okay with Matthew in command.

   Acting alone is almost 100% likely to cause trouble!

   "From this point of view, Peggy is really unusual. I deserve to be the one who risked my life to find it in the Golden Land."

   A trace of reminiscence appeared in Matthew's eyes.

   Soon however.

  His memory was interrupted.

   "Knife, knife, I...I, knife!"

  Intermittent thoughts came from A Bing's soul fire through the undead contract.

  Matthew nodded thoughtfully.

   "You want a good knife? The short one?"

   Ten seconds later.

   "Two, two... two."

   A Bing responded.

   "I see, I will make two suitable short knives for you as soon as possible."

   "Thank you...Master."

  The response this time only took three seconds.

  …

  「Because of your commitment, Ah Bing (Skeleton)’s loyalty to you has increased to 99!」

  …

   "It's better to be more loyal if you cultivate it yourself!"

  Matthew said with emotion.

  …

  After a simple dinner in the cabin, it was already dark night outside.

  Matthew pushed the door out.

  A faint white light shone in the oak forest not far away.

  The oak goblins who hide in the dark during the day come out in full force.

   Except for Princess Lulu, almost all the fairies are dancing around Ella the owl.

   And Ella was standing in the canopy of an oak tree.

  It closed its eyes tightly and muttered words.

  The faint divine spell ripples spread out like ripples.

  Matthew is walking in the woods.

  The feeling of being watched by pairs of kind eyes came back again.

  She is doing an 'enlightenment' for the oak forest.

  As a soul of nature who is favored by the Moonlight Goddess, Ella's accomplishments in the natural field are much higher than Lulu's.

  Through the ritual of 'enlightenment'.

  She can inject more wisdom and vitality into the oak forest.

  The oak trees become healthier as a result.

   And in the long growth process.

  If someone has been doing enlightenment for them, then there will be a greater probability among them that a dryad will be born, which is what people often call a big tree guard.

  With good luck, one or two tree shepherds may even be born.

  This is extremely beneficial to the development of the forest.

  But it also means great consumption for the enlightener himself.

  Maybe it was rejected by Matthew.

  Ella was afraid that he would not remove the bugs tonight, so she fulfilled the promise that Matthew asked him to do in advance.

  …

  "Hint: Your nature partner, Ella, has completed an initiation ritual for your oak grove.

  Your 'Domain: Oak' has been slightly improved! "

  …

   Is there such a benefit?

   Matthew was overjoyed.

   Enlightenment can not only benefit the oaks, but also enhance their own domain power?

   "It seems that after the three-year period expires, we still have to find a way to get Elaldo to come over."

   Matthew thought so.

  The only wild card is actually Lulu.

  As the soul of nature, Lulu obviously regards the oak forest as her habitat.

  She can tolerate Ella following Matthew's will to come here for enlightenment in a short period of time.

   But it's been a long time.

  She definitely couldn't bear it.

  Because this is taking her job.

   "Lulu should have similar abilities in the future, right?"

   Between thoughts.

  The white light in the forest has receded.

  The oak goblin scattered without a trace.

   Only Ella was left dragging her tired body to Matthew.

   "Hey Matthew, I'm not doing too badly, am I?"

   Ella asked with her head drooping.

  Matthew nodded.

  He could feel the joy of the oaks.

   Ella is clearly not paddling.

  Matthew's attitude naturally became milder:

   "Good job, Ella, you're doing a great job."

  Ella said happily:

   "So we can get rid of the bugs now?"

  Unexpectedly, Matthew still shook his head.

   Under Ella's puzzled eyes, he asked:

   "Will you prime?"

Ella seemed to have guessed something, so she nodded vigorously: "I will, I will, Matthew, this is the basic skill of the soul of nature! I guess what you want me to do, you said your job is a Tree, I see you walking around carrying saplings every day, so, are the saplings used up?"

  Matthew said approvingly:

"You are very smart, the saplings I have are indeed not enough, but I have a small greenhouse, in which I am cultivating some oak seeds, but if the normal process is followed, their germination speed is too slow, so I would like to ask you to help accelerate the germination— You don’t need to ripen all of them, a small part is enough, we can do it in batches, and it depends on your physical strength.”

   "After all, you have just completed an enlightenment session, and the consumption must be very high."

  Ella couldn’t wait to say:

   "Take me there, no need to separate batches, I will help you ripen them all tonight!"

  Matthew hesitated for a moment:

   "Is this okay? Your body..."

   Ella is full of confidence:

   "Don't underestimate the perseverance of the soul of nature, Matthew!"

   "Isn't it just a small greenhouse, I can still stand it!"

  …

   Twenty minutes later.

   Matthew's home in Rolling Stone Town.

  In the greenhouse on the east side.

   Peggy looked at the shocked Ella with interest.

   "This, this is the small greenhouse you are talking about?"

  Miss Owl trembled.

  She looked at the endless miniature greenhouses in front of her.

   It was dark in front of my eyes and I almost fainted!

   "The former owner of this house left a space for a ritual field here, but I don't have enough mana, so I can only inspire a small part. Currently, it only has an area of ​​less than 15 acres."

  Matthew said kindly:

   "Need me to give you a detailed introduction to the next working environment?"

  …

   In the future, I will post as 0/12 first, thank you for your support
