A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees

Chapter 294 Aren’t you afraid that they will crawl out of the coffin?

 …

  Matthew chose OK without hesitation!

If the opponent is a serious necromancer, demigod or lich, he may still be wary of it.

 Just a succubus...

 On the contrary, it exposed the weakness of this tomb!

as expected.

 The next second, a smile appeared on Matthew's face.

 …

“Hint: You have seen through the “intimidation” and “deterrence” of the banshee!

Say to the banshee Brianta for refusing your realm duel!

 She chose to run away!

 You will use the tomb realm to infiltrate the tomb in front of you openly.

 Up to twenty hours later.

 This tomb will be transformed into your temporary domain! "

 …

 “It’s true that he is pretending to be a ghost.”

Matthew silently sensed the changes around him.

　　With the death of the banshee, she retreated without a fight.

 The plants and trees nearby seemed to become more friendly and gentle.

 This is the field effect.

 That is to say, Matthew only has the initial exploration level in the tomb field.

 The corresponding field scope is smaller and the penetration speed is slower.

If it were an oak tree, undead, or tauren, it would probably only take an hour, and the area with a radius of several kilometers would become his temporary domain!

Matthew closed his eyes and took in the sensation.

He could feel that with the friction between him and Brianta, the whole tomb seemed to come alive!

 That was a sign that all the cemetery guards were out in force.

 But Matthew was not worried about this.

At this moment, he faced the tomb realm and quietly used the earth magic once!

This spell, with the blessing of the tomb domain, allows Matthew to learn all the information about the tomb in the shortest possible time.

quickly.

 A large amount of information poured into Matthew's mind.

 As he had previously judged, the threat level of this tomb was not high.

His owner Prince Philip was not a guy who was keen on necromancy, so there was no similar ceremony place in his tomb.

  In the natural conditions of the main material world.

It is difficult to form a very dangerous grave.

 Matthew quickly glanced at the information.

  Confirmed that the Eternal Underground Palace nominally has three floors, corresponding to the burial places of Prince Philip and their two brothers.

  Prince Philip himself is buried on the third floor, where there are a large number of burial objects and priceless treasures.

 Correspondingly, there are more dangerous mechanisms and traps.

“The number of traps on the third floor has actually reached this level?”

“A little carelessness will cause the entire underground palace to collapse and be destroyed?”

 Matthew frowned.

 It seems that you need to be particularly careful when entering the third floor.

 In addition to traps and traps, there are only three types of monsters that can pose a threat to future generations, namely zombies, skeleton trolls and snake vines.

Of these three monsters, the first two are undead units, and the snake vine is a plant-type monster. The level is not high and neither is difficult to deal with.

 After reading it, Matthew breathed a sigh of relief.

 He glanced at Carmela who was looking around -

The red-robed priest did not lie. This tomb is indeed relatively safe and a more suitable place for newcomers like him to practice.

 In Irondor, especially on the Material Plane.

Graves do not become more dangerous the older they are.

  The more important decisive factor is whether there is the intervention of external forces and the tilt of the negative energy plane.

If this is a place run by a lich or corpse witch all year round, then even if the history is not long enough, it will be extremely dangerous;

If there is no external force involved, and there is no intersection with the plane of negative energy, then even if the undead form themselves in this tomb, these undead will consume themselves over a long period of time.

 The undead also have a life span.

 They just look more like immortals than living people.

Especially tombs like the Eternal Underground Palace.

Since the history of the world of Iron Dor lacks time scale measurement, you cannot determine whether the Troll Empire was active thousands of years ago or tens of thousands of years ago.

Such a long time is enough to destroy the vast majority of the undead in the underground palace who have self-born spiritual intelligence.

 The remaining ones are unlikely to be any shockingly powerful people.

 This is the cruelty of time.

 In front of time.

 There is no real immortality.

 After thoroughly understanding the bottom of the Eternal Underground Palace, Matthew decided to improve his action efficiency.

 It’s not the same as usual.

There are two major legends competing this time, and it is a tomb that I know very well, so there is no need to be too muddled.

 The moment.

 Matthew took out Ursul's Rebuke and opened the realm of the undead.

 Under the influence of field agitation.

 He once again gained the temporary status "Kingly Appearance".

At this time, he is standing in the two realms of the tomb and the undead, holding a long whip that can be called the nemesis of the undead. No matter what kind of tomb guard he encounters, it is enough to crush them!

 It happened to be at this time.

Matthew sensed that the previously placed teleportation tombstone had stabilized.

 It’s time to call in more hands!

　　咻!

There was a sudden sound of wind overhead.

 A group of white-bone bats flew out of a fist-sized gap.

They went straight for Matthew with a fierce look in their eyes!

But Matthew had no fear.

While chanting the summoning technique of the dead loudly, he whipped the group of bats hard with the whip in his hand!

 Pap, pah, pah!

Usul's scolding waved quickly.

Although Matthew is not proficient in whip skills.

Just relying on the undead dispelling effect of this weapon is enough to wipe out this group of bats without eyes.

 A few seconds later.

 A huge dark purple portal quickly took shape on the ceiling.

　　followed by.

 A faint dragon's power came from behind the door.

 A huge claw appeared out of thin air in front of everyone!

"Owner!"

 Philoleus is still so respectful.

 “Please give the order!”

Matthew smiled:

 “Before I give the order, I’ll show you something good first.”

As he spoke, he led Xiao Fei to the pit. The giant skeleton beast summoned by the banshee had collapsed, and the bones fell into the pit again.

 Bone that has not turned into bone meal after tens of thousands of years.

 The quality is naturally high.

 “I’m here today to fulfill my original promise.”

“I know you are now a king and may not value these bones, but they are yours!”

“Not just these, all the bones in this tomb belong to you!”

Matthew said with a smile.

 The soul fire in Xiao Fei's huge head began to shake rapidly.

 There was also strong joy in his voice:

 “I, I didn’t expect you to actually... No, I always believed that this day would come.”

"grateful!"

 The next second.

 The Bone Dragon jumped directly into the pit, but when he rolled on the spot, a large number of bones were automatically attached to his appearance!

 A faint blue light appeared on Philoleus.

 He rolled around on the ground several times.

 A few blinks.

 His body is much bloated than before!

 In the pit, there was only a pile of bone powder left.

Xiao Bo opened his mouth and sucked hard. In the surprised eyes of a group of people in Gemstone Bay, the bone meal disappeared completely!

　　followed by.

 He came to Matthew respectfully and lowered his head again.

 Snap.

 The bone dragon spit out two things from its mouth:

 “Master, thank you for your gift. This is a little bit of my appreciation.”

 Matthew looked down.

 The first thing is a small brown bottle, which is a space item filled with high-grade bone meal.

This thing is a treasure obtained by refining ordinary bone powder through high-level undead units of the skeleton system.

 Matthew did the math.

This thing is worth more than the bone powder that Philoleus swallowed.

But Matthew was not polite to him and put it away directly.

 If I don’t accept it, it’s mainly because I’m worried about Xiao Bo.

 The second item is a coin-sized bone.

Matthew put it in the palm of his hand and rubbed it. As a result, the thing grew bigger and bigger, and in an instant it was as big as a palm.

It looks like a small shield.

 Soon Matthew figured out the use of this item—

 This thing is usually only the size of a coin and is very easy to carry.

 After injecting a small amount of negative energy.

 It will become a shield.

 The size of the shield can be adjusted depending on the amount of negative energy injected.

 It can form a tower shield up to two meters high!

  The shield's armor rating can only be described as excellent.

 But the advantage is that this thing does not require relevant weapon proficiency to be used. It is easy to get started and flexible to use.

 For the mage, it can be controlled directly through mental power. In theory, it can withstand many physical attacks.

 “You are determined.”

Matthew smiled and gently stroked the outermost bone armor of the ghost bone dragon.

 He could feel that Xiao Fei's strength had improved a little.

  There is no shortcut to improve the strength of skeleton-type creatures, just find more and better bones or bone powder.

If only all the bones in this tomb could be found on Xiao Fei.

 His foundation as a bone dragon will be more solid.

This also lays the foundation for the re-evolution of the Ghost Bone Dragon.

 “Please let me do something for you.”

Xiao Fei pressed his chin firmly to the floor, and the golden bone needle on his chin quickly retracted, forming a very powerful hidden weapon.

"Not in a hurry."

 Matthew continued to call his own people.

 The second one is Peggy.

 “Matthew? I was just looking for you!”

“After Sif left, I have been bored every day these days...Who are you going to fight with?”

 “Did they provoke you?”

As the tauren skeleton spoke, he drew out the golden bone blade and looked around eagerly.

 The faces of the Gemstone Overseas group tightened.

Matthew had no choice but to comfort him:

"Calm down, I'm just here to rob the tomb."

 “I’m not here to tear down the house!”

 “They are not enemies.”

Peggy put the knife away angrily.

quickly.

 Death Knight 47, A Bing, Coolie Mother Miaosaki and others also appeared next to Matthew one after another.

at the same time.

Matthew did not hesitate to spend tens of thousands of gold coins, and directly used the teleportation tombstone as a base to activate several group teleportation techniques.

 A period of time.

 The first tomb became extremely crowded.

Hundreds of coolie zombies are waiting.

“Xiao Fei, go to the second tomb, the one on the left!”

“Peggy, take a team of people to the third tomb!”

“47 and A Bing, you two each lead a team of people to the fourth tomb!”

 “Ms. Miaosaki, please ask the zombies under your hands to cooperate with them and move back all the valuable things you see!”

 “You can move it back if it’s worthless and has nothing to do!”

 “Move well!”

 “Be careful, don’t make any mistakes!”

"Mr. Stanley, if you are willing to cooperate with my undead men and eliminate some traps on non-main roads, I am willing to share 10% of the harvest from this trip with you."

 Matthew turned to the Gemstone Bay group.

 At this time, there was no longer much surprise on the faces of these colleagues.

 Only deep numbness remains.

Stanley scratched his head.

Looking at the zombies who were working hard and carrying rocks, he always felt that his world view had been severely shattered.

 He has never seen such wild tomb robbing methods!

 Before Stanley could speak.

Linden behind him began to whisper again.

But this time his voice was quiet:

 “You are doing evil, you are destroying cultural relics!”

 “This is destroying cultural relics…”

 Matthew came to him with a smile.

Linden was immediately startled. He wanted to hide back, but the crowd behind him was so densely packed with zombies that he had no way to hide.

 Faced with this kind of excellence.

Matthew was also quite speechless:

 “What does the troll’s cultural relics have to do with me, a human being?”

 “But I do need a favor from you.”

"Of course, as for whether you want to do this favor or not, it depends on your own opinion. Carmela and I are different. My personality is easier to talk to, and I am not very threatening. It is impossible for me to turn you into an immortal. Threatening you."

Linden trembled:

 “I help, I help!”

 “Just tell me what you want me to do.”

Matthew pointed to Xiaofei Peggy and others at the front and said:

“I want you to help them distinguish which are valuable cultural relics and which are ordinary stones that can be recycled.”

"Of course I will save valuable things. In fact, this magic circle leads to my cemetery. The cemetery is rich in negative energy and is the environment closest to the tomb. There is no place more suitable than my cemetery. Preserve cultural relics!”

"how do you feel?"

Linden looked a little angry, but he didn’t dare to look at Matthew, so he could only say weakly:

 “I’m just here to help.”

“But if you do this kind of thing...aren’t you afraid that they will get up from the coffin?”

 He couldn't help but say one more thing.

Matthew followed Lyndon’s gaze in confusion.

  The latter was looking at the three coffins placed in the middle.

Matthew’s eyes lit up.

 He slapped his thigh and said:

 “Thanks to you for reminding me, I almost forgot!”

“The three of them can also get up and work!”

next moment.

 In Linden's eyes, which were both shocked and regretful.

 Matthew once again chanted the universal summoning spell of the undead.

 Ten seconds later.

　　…　　　　　　 Tip: You have summoned a new undead "Troll Zombie"!

 It is detected that the newly born troll zombies were a family of three during their lifetime. Should they maintain the same relationship as before?

 The contract is being modified, maintaining success!

 You have obtained a new undead swarm unit "Troll Family (Zombies"

 …

Matthew looked at the three troll zombies crawling out of the coffin in front of him with interest.

They did not wear many burial objects because of the troll custom, which required them to be naked after entering the coffin.

 But their corpses still have a very high degree of integrity.

 His status is self-evident.

“You three, please carry your coffins back to the cemetery first!”

 “Then go to the mother of coolies and find work!”

  Matthew quickly issued the order.

The three troll zombies looked at each other in confusion. Soon, with the help of other zombies, they each carried a sarcophagus and bent down towards the direction of the portal.

 “Mr. Lyndon?”

 “I don’t know what else I didn’t do well?”

 “You can remind me!”

 Matthew looked at Lyndon with a smile.

Linden fled.

 After running a few steps, he was picked up by 47 and disappeared among the zombies.

Matthew looked at Linden’s back, his eyes gradually becoming colder.

 He always felt that something was not right about this Lyndon.

 “I’m going to help eliminate the trap first!”

Stanley went to work wisely.

 The rest of the people followed suit.

 Matthew’s eyes swept across the Gemstone Bay group one by one.

suddenly.

 He noticed the figure from the back with an excellent figure.

 “This woman... seems to be very strange.”

Matthew looked at Daisy intently.

At this moment, Luo Lan came over with a sad face, holding a piccolo in his mouth, paper and pen in hand.

He followed Matthew’s gaze and looked over:

 “Do you like this type?”

"It is true that a woman like Daisy is too old for me, but she is just right for you."

Matthew shook his head:

“No, I just think Daisy is a bit too ordinary.”

 “She seems out of place in this place.”

Roland complained:

“Everyone seems out of place in front of your tomb robbing techniques, okay?”

 “And how is she ordinary?”

“The **** are obviously very big and outstanding!”

Matthew was speechless:

 “You really have no other feelings for her?”

Roland said decisively:

"have!"

“Didn’t you find that her temperament is very similar to that of a bald stick?”

The bald stick of course refers to the red-robed priest Carmela.

Matthew suddenly understood.

 He had felt something similar before, but without Lorraine making it clear, it might have been difficult for him to realize it.

 This shows that Daisy is not an ordinary person!

 “She is also an ancient person?”

Matthew asked.

Roland shook his head:

“Not necessarily. It’s hard to say about temperament. It may just be an illusion between you and me.”

"Besides, she didn't say anything even if the magic stick was there, so why should we bother?"

 “You asked me so many questions, and I have to answer one!”

Matthew looked at the pen and paper in his hand, nodded and said:

 “Yes, you can ask.”

Roland said without thinking:

 “You’re flying… Do you prefer to use your left hand or your right hand when planting trees?”

 Matthew looked at each other with a strange expression.

 What kind of problem is this?

 He said casually:

 “I’m not sure, sometimes it’s the left hand and sometimes it’s the right hand.”

 “Sometimes I can use both hands.”

 “Why do you ask this?”

Roland smiled slightly:

 “Write an origin story for your weapon!”

 “You must add enough details to make it appear more realistic!”

 Is this so?

Matthew thought for a while and added:

 “Actually, I didn’t do it all by myself.”

 “Sometimes I let zombies help me do it.”

Roland's eyes lit up, he grabbed the pen and paper and ran away.

 Looking at his leaving figure.

Matthew frowned slightly.

I always feel like something is wrong.

But it was time to work now, and he didn't have time to waste on Lorraine.

“I just dug so many rocks, I need to replenish my energy!”

　　thinking so.

Matthew took out a glass of milk from his luggage and drank it.

 “The taste of milk is just average.”

“When you go to the Floating City another day, you must remember to ask Feliwen to learn the milk tea technique!”

　　thinking so.

 He picked up the shovel again.

He walked towards the stone wall of the next tomb.

 …

 Six hours later.

 In the fourth tomb on the second floor, the zombies are diligently transporting all the loot up.

 Miaosaki is responsible for scheduling.

 There is Xiao Fei Peggy and others to sweep away the monsters.

 Matthew’s job was much simpler.

 He only needs to maintain the territory, and then count the spoils!

 The sweep of the first two floors went smoothly.

Matthew met little decent resistance.

The only accident was when a zombie accidentally encountered an sulfuric acid trap while moving rocks.

The extremely high concentration of strong acid corroded part of the zombie's body.

 But that’s all.

The corrosiveness of negative energy is indeed inferior to that of strong acid in the short term, but its effect is superior on a longer time scale.

 Hence, most undead have strong resistance to strong acid.

 If it were a big living person.

I'm afraid it has turned into a puddle of sour water by now.

 As for the tomb guards.

Even the eldest sister who took the lead in telling the banshee to death ran away.

 The remaining stinky fish and rotten shrimps naturally cannot be the enemy of the bone dragon.

  Have taken care of these factors.

 Matthew also has the advantage of having a large number of people.

 Sweeping is naturally very light.

At the moment, he made a preliminary inventory and found that he had harvested a large amount of stones and cultural relics on the first two floors, as well as priceless burial objects.

 The burial objects were mainly composed of gems, ceramics, gold and silver.

 The value of this part exceeds three million gold coins.

 This is because the other brother of Prince Philip who is buried on the second floor underground is relatively poor.

I can only say that tomb robbing is really profitable!

  Necromancer is the most suitable profession for tomb robbers.

Of course, ordinary necromancers cannot shake hundreds of zombies at one go like Matthew.

 This cost is simply too high.

 They cannot afford it.

 The next harvest was more than thirty zombies.

Matthew has had these things carefully transported to the cemetery. To him, this is the blind box of the undead.

Although most of the zombies released are banshee-type units.

However, the subdivision categories and functionality are different.

  Matthew is looking forward to this.

In addition, there are some magic books from the Troll Empire, as well as well-preserved spell props.

 Matthew took a cursory look at a few magic books.

 Then I was unexpectedly disappointed.

As he knew, the troll's magic book was quite crude, its spellcasting system was not perfect, and its power was not comparable to contemporary spells.

 In the world of Irondor.

Ancient magic is far inferior to modern spells. The spells from the era of the Goddess of Magic are not as good as the current alliance spells, not to mention the older giant magic.

  After all, the spells of the Seven Saints Alliance were rolled out crazily under the high pressure of the gods.

 In terms of quality, it beats the old times in all aspects.

 Take fireball as an example.

  If the power of fireball in the troll era was 1.0.

Then the power of the fireball techniques that have been pushed to the extreme in Isabel's knowledge base are all above 6.5.

This does not include matching metamagic abilities.

 This world is constantly evolving.

 It’s not just mages.

 Even the sorcerers who are famous for their bloodline are like this.

Some mages in the alliance have done relevant research, and the results show that the power coefficient of the fireball spell of the kobold warlocks in the Age of Enlightenment of the Gods is about 1.1.

 The fireball power of contemporary self-awakened kobold warlocks is usually above 3.6.

 This shows that changes in the general environment are also promoting the adaptation of bloodline inheritors.

 In the process of blood inheritance.

 The power of the Warlock is also constantly being optimized and accumulated.

 This shows that at least in the field of magic.

 The difference between the ancient and the present in Irondor is quite obvious.

These magic books can only be used as historical materials for reference, and their learning value is almost zero.

Matthew plans to donate it to a magic academy in the Alliance.

 Just think of it as a bit of a boost in reputation.

besides.

There are four more interesting items.

 The first piece is called "God Armor", which is a set of full-body armor made of mysterious jet black metal.

 This set of armor requires troll blood to be worn.

 In addition to its excellent basic attributes.

 The wearer can also burn essence and blood to enter the so-called "god state".

It is said that in the **** state, the wearer will be able to be possessed by the fighting will of the **** Pur, thereby gaining invincible power.

Matthew thought that this thing might be useful when dealing with trolls, so he put it away properly.

 The second item is an inconspicuous and even dirty goblet.

 This object is called the "Blooded Holy Grail".

To be honest, after listening to Linden’s introduction, Matthew was already a little sensitive to the word Holy Grail.

 But this cup should be relatively normal and have its own characteristics—

 As long as you pour water into the cup.

 Less than five minutes.

 The water in the cup will turn into wine.

This kind of wine tastes a bit sour, but it can enhance a small amount of mental power after taking it, which is quite rare!

 After all, mental strength determines the concentration attribute.

Matthew plans to go back and dig a pond, fill it with clean water, and then throw the Blood Holy Grail into it to see if he can make this kind of wine in batches.

if you can.

 This may become another way for him to make money.

  After all, which mage has no need for spiritual power?

 The third item is the recipe for the "Psychic Potion".

 The main function of psychotropic agents is to enhance local movement ability.

　　Matthew thinks it’s useless.

 But for the sake of safety, I kept it specially.

 The fourth item is called "Tamiron's Herbal Codex".

 Looks like a herbal book.

 But Matthew felt a strange power from it, the nature of which was biased toward evil.

 …

“Hint: You have obtained Tamiron’s Herbal Codex, an enlightenment book from the realm of voodoo.

 You can enter the realm of voodoo by reading this book in depth. Do you want to read in depth? "

 …

 Only magic books require in-depth reading.

 This book is certainly unusual.

Matthew has not opened it for a long time, not because the voodoo field has a bad reputation—

 They are all already necromancers.

  Naturally, I don’t have to worry about making matters worse.

 He just sensed that there was a very evil power in this book.

“To be on the safe side, let’s ask Carmela for an appraisal first.”

 Matthew looked up.

 At this time.

His perception suddenly changed—

The Undead Contract told him that the undead leading the battle encountered someone!

 Matthew rushed over immediately.

 Two minutes later.

 Outside a narrow room at the entrance to the third floor.

Matthew saw a group of figures dressed as mercenaries.

　　They are the group of colleagues from Sword Winter City.

 They seemed to have had an argument with someone.

 The reason was that they wanted to enter the room, but a tall figure stood at the door of the room, preventing them from moving.

 “If you want to go in, you must answer me a question.”

“If you answer correctly, you will get what you want.”

“If you answer wrong, you will be killed by me.”

“For you, retreating now is the best option.”

The tall figure with a sphinx's body stopped the tomb robber in Jiandong City and said calmly.

 Matthew suddenly became interested.

Isn’t this the Sphinx?

Shouldn’t this guy be working in his own cemetery?

 How come you still have time to work part-time here?

 …
