The necromancer just wants to plant trees

Chapter 156 Descendants of the World Tree

…

Matthew chose three without hesitation.

"How can a necromancer not choose archeology?"

In an instant.

A large amount of tomb knowledge poured into his head, and after the slight sting, he felt a hearty feeling of relief.

This feeling is very strange.

This knowledge seemed to be integrated into his blood, and extracting it became Matthew's instinct.

As long as he wants.

He can instantly transform into an expert in tombology!

And besides knowledge.

Matthew also received three coordinates.

The first coordinate is located deep in the Helen Mountains in the north-central part of Irondor continent, which happens to be the area where the two-headed ogre was previously active;

The second coordinate was in the south. After a brief comparison, Matthew found that this thing was probably deep in the rain forest. It was obviously the one belonging to King Mingtan. According to Yu Lian, there was a dragon tomb underneath;

The last coordinate is on the outer plane.

Matthew took out the coordinate science book and read it, and found that it was a tomb located in the Arcane Wilderness.

In three tombs.

The tomb of King Mingtan was first eliminated by Matthew, and Blinken was still squatting inside. What's more, it also involves the dragon tomb. Who knows how dangerous it is inside.

Let’s not talk about the outer planes, Matthew doesn’t have that ability.

The only one suitable for recent archeology is the one in the Helen Mountains.

That place is almost two to three thousand miles away.

A map suddenly appeared in Matthew's mind:

Starting from Rolling Stone Town, all the way north, passing Rapids City, passing the Jade Cangting, the current royal city of the Wood Elves, and the Fallen Leaves Garden, the former royal city, crossing the Rotten Highlands and the Lake of the Dead, and passing through the 800-mile plateau corridor. It is the most famous Hanshan Pass that connects the north and south of the mainland.

Passing the Hanshan Pass, the Helen Mountains, one of the central mountains, will appear in view.

"It's indeed quite far to travel normally, but there is a legendary mage tower of the Alliance near the Cold Mountain Pass, so it should be possible to reach there by teleportation - provided that the consent of the legendary mage is obtained."

Matthew rubbed his temples, feeling a little regretful.

The location of the tombs is too far away, and there seems to be no possibility of archeology in the short term.

It would be nice if it was in the south.

However, when he thought about it carefully, he was very clear about the situation in the south. There had never been a strong city-state or political power, and the possibility of a large tomb in history was extremely low.

The situation in the north is different.

Although the north has not established a human kingdom in the true sense, the cities in the north are under greater war pressure due to perennial harassment by barbarians.

in this case.

It is said that several country-like city-states appeared in northern history.

They already have the basic form of a country, the only thing missing is a formal declaration.

Centralization of power similar to that of a state is one of the necessary conditions for the emergence of large tombs.

Therefore, it is indeed more reasonable for the tomb to appear in the north than in the south.

…

"Tip (Grave Realm): You have gained a permanent status "Smell of Companion".

Sense of smell of fellow travelers: You are extremely sensitive to the smell of your fellow travelers. When a necromancer, archaeologist or tomb robber appears ten kilometers away from you, you will automatically sense their location and refresh their coordinates every 6 hours. "

…

This is in good condition.

Although it is aimed at a specific group of people, the 24-hour free automatic radar is still very useful.

The only thing that dissatisfied Matthew was.

"Why is the tomb robber also my companion?"

"I obviously haven't had time to do that kind of thing yet."

It can be seen that the judgment of the grave domain is somewhat unintelligent.

Come to your senses.

Matthew arranged the tombstones in the stone area.

Tombstones are a good thing.

At present, there is no saturation phenomenon of tombstones. After there is no shortage of tombstones for the undead in the cemetery, he plans to make a large number of them and store them in the warehouse.

The zombies are in great demand for tombstones, and even one person may not be enough, especially the mutated tombstone zombie. Last time Matthew discovered that he was actually carrying two tombstones on his back.

One piece was given by Matthew, and the other piece was naturally snatched by him.

The demand for skeletons is a little lower, but usually 3 to 5 skeletons sharing one tombstone is the limit.

The above two types of undead Matthews provide tombstones for free for the time being.

Ghosts are different.

They also need tombstones, but they have to pay for them through their own labor.

After all, he is not a direct descendant.

Matthew also has to go through a period of time to observe whether they are really loyal.

Don’t say anything else.

The elite ghost named Ali is definitely not someone who easily succumbs to others.

When he introduced the "Zandar Ghost Family" to himself, his tone was full of pride, and he obviously agreed with that concept.

This is certainly not a good thing for Matthew.

What he needs is a group of undead subordinates who are completely obedient.

Rather than some wise undead who are full of nostalgia for the ghost family of the past.

Matthew originally planned to let Piao take over Ali's position and become the boss of the ghost zone.

However, Ah Piao was shy by nature and refused to leave Matthew's luggage. In the end, Matthew had no choice but to let the little wolves guard him day and night.

Leave the stone area.

Matthew only felt aches and pains all over his body.

After applying oil for a long time and making a tombstone for a long time, even with the potion to replenish his strength, he was a little unable to bear it.

Even so, he still walked around the cemetery as usual.

"Although the cemetery is large, it is still a bit empty. Many buildings are actually ready for construction, but it is a pity that there is a lack of construction manpower."

Matthew was a little helpless.

No kind of undead is suitable for more delicate construction work.

He imagined once again how wonderful it would be if he had a duergar construction team.

Except for the construction team.

Matthew also began to consider one thing for the first time——

Do you need to find an assistant?

A successful mage will never lack assistants and apprentices.

The latter can do some repetitive and mechanical work for the mage.

This frees you up to devote your time to more meaningful things.

Necromancer Henry is actually a good choice.

But he rebelled from Red Earth Mountain, and Matthew was unsure of his loyalty. For safety reasons, he was arranged by the three giants of Rolling Stone Town at the South Trading Post. On the surface, he was asked to monitor the situation in Red Earth Mountain. In fact, he was Send others to monitor Henry.

Henry himself probably knew this.

He has been very active recently.

But more time is needed to test it.

"Maybe it's not impossible to recruit two apprentices from the alliance. Although I can't give you much gold coin subsidies, you can still get the knowledge points."

What kind of apprentice can meet all his needs?

Matthew was lost in thought.

…

night.

Matthew's figure appeared in the oak forest.

The moonlight is very bright tonight.

Far away.

He saw the centaur Obest patrolling in the south. Obest's attitude was very serious. He would personally inspect every oak tree to ensure that it was not harmed by insect pests.

This guy is also very proud.

Matthew rarely saw him. Considering that he spent most of his time patrolling in the oak forest, Matthew once suspected that Obest was hiding from him.

Obest stayed for Lulu, which Matthew also knew very well, but the other party's performance was a bit excessive.

"Forget it, it's okay to be arrogant. Eli was also arrogant in the beginning."

After looking at each other with Matthew, the centaur quickly disappeared into the woods.

Matthew didn't argue with him but came to the guarded oak trees.

Oak Guard has two modes, one is Oak and the other is Guard.

The former is the regular oak form, during which the oak guard will accumulate energy;

The latter is in a form close to that of a treant. Maintaining the form of a treant requires a large amount of energy. The more powerful the oak guards are, the more so, so they usually only appear in the forest in the form of oak trees.

After killing the Blight Order, Matthew had 440 strengthening experience points in his hand, which was enough to strengthen an oak tree or an oak guard 22 times.

He planned to follow past decisions and select an Oak Guard for concentrated investment.

The man-eating tree was directly eliminated by Matthew.

Matthew already has many powerful undead under his command, and for the Oak Guards, his requirements are defense and stability above all else.

Strengthening the man-eating tree would be too uncertain and would not meet Matthew's current needs.

At that moment, he called Renesmee and asked her to choose one of the three remaining oak guards.

Renesmee didn't look like she understood what Matthew was saying.

Matthew had to let her wander around.

Renesmee giggled and drooled, watching Matthew walk, and as he walked, he bumped into a tree.

She patted the tree in annoyance.

Matthew also had a look of helplessness on his face.

Because this is just an ordinary oak tree, not an oak guard.

How could he use his valuable experience to strengthen ordinary oak trees?

"Choose another, Renesmee."

Matthew ordered.

Renesmee walked around the oak tree before leaving reluctantly.

After a while, she came to an oak guard and frantically used its bark to grind her teeth.

Matthew's heart moved.

I was about to raise my hand to strengthen ten times in a row.

At this moment.

A reproachful voice sounded:

"How could you allow the undead to desecrate the sacred oak guard?"

The elusive centaur suddenly appears next to Renesmee.

He pushed Renesmee away hard, his movements were very reckless.

Renesmee instinctively bared her fangs at him, and the centaur immediately raised her spear and warned:

"Stay away from my oak tree!"

Upon hearing this.

Matthew, who was about to explain just now, suddenly turned gloomy.

He stared at the centaur with sharp eyes:

"Have you forgotten, this is my oak forest?"

Obest frowned:

"You know that's not what I meant."

Matthew asked rhetorically:

"Then what do you mean?"

"When I do things in my own forest, do I still need to be told what to do by you?"

Obest said coldly:

"I don't think I did anything wrong."

"I live with these oaks every day, and I know them better than you do. If I were you, I shouldn't tell a true professional what to do."

His tone was full of condescension.

Matthew's frown relaxed.

The first impression this centaur gave him was not very good, but considering that the other party was indeed a professional counterpart, he was allowed to stay.

Unexpectedly, in just a few days, it would already take the spotlight.

"Mr. Obest, you can leave my woods."

Matthew said politely.

Before Obest could react, he was still talking:

"If it weren't for Princess Lulu's sake, I wouldn't have been able to leave the sea of trees and stay here. This forest has great potential, and they need me very much... Wait, what are you talking about?"

The centaur looked at Matthew in disbelief.

Matthew said calmly:

"You are fired. I will give you twenty-four hours. After twenty-four hours, if you still show up in my oak forest, I will take this as a provocation."

Obest asked in disbelief:

"You want to expel me?"

Matthew said unceremoniously:

"You have been expelled."

Obest smiled instead of getting angry:

"I just wanted to tell you that there is a huge hidden danger in this forest, but I didn't expect you to take the initiative to expel me. Okay, okay, great, you are the owner of the forest, I will leave immediately. All I can say is that Princess Lulu is really If you make a mistake, both you and her will regret it!"

Finish this sentence.

He turned his head and ran towards the north of the woods arrogantly.

Confirm that the centaur has left.

Matthew came to the guard of the oak tree chosen by Renesmee.

His mood was not affected in the slightest.

Raise your hand to strengthen for ten consecutive times!

…

When you chat with him about other math problems, he will keep asking questions and hoping to get answers from you.

However, it is not easy for Dom to understand your thinking. "

…

Very average.

Matthew touched his chin.

After this wave of enhancements, apart from the fact that the level has been solidly improved and the two purple keywords are quite useful, the rest are very ordinary.

As for the gray ones.

He didn't even bother to complain.

The intelligence of Oak Guards is generally not very high, and falling in love with mathematics is really a kind of suffering.

As for singing in the middle of the night, this problem is not difficult to solve. Then just throw a silencing barrier around him.

"Are you sure it's him?"

Matthew looked at Renesmee.

Miss Zombie looked at him innocently.

So Matthew was ready to continue strengthening.

But the next second.

…

"Tip: The number of enhancements has reached the maximum value.

Note: Each Oak Guard can be strengthened up to ten times within a year. "

…

There are actually restrictions!

Matthew wanted to complain even more.

But then I thought about it, when I strengthened the undead before, it was clearly stated that it was infinite strengthening.

Compared to the undead.

The characteristics of plants are more stable, and it is barely reasonable to have enhancement restrictions.

But this would force Matthew to diversify his investments.

He thought about it and decided to give the remaining ten times to another oak guard.

Who will give the extra two times in the end?

Matthew's eyes wandered aimlessly in the woods.

suddenly.

He noticed the oak tree Renesmee hit first.

"How about trying to strengthen the oak tree?"

It’s redundant anyway.

There is no psychological burden on Matthew when using it.

He shot at the oak tree.

…

"Tip: The strengthening is successful, and your oak tree has obtained the golden keyword "Descendants of the World Tree".

Descendants of the World Tree: Your oak tree obtains the lord template, and gains abilities such as "Giant Tree Species", "Infinite Growth", "Elf Hometown" and "Tree Sea Link", and is named "Bogard" by the tree sea! -

Giant tree species: Your Oak Bogard is about to soar to over 300 meters.

Infinite Growth: Bogard theoretically has the ability to grow infinitely.

Elf Hometown: There is not only the light fairy's nest above Bogard, but also a "green eye". The green eye has a low probability of being the birthplace of the wood elves.

expected within the next hundred years.

A new group of wood elves will be born on Bogard.

Link to the Sea of Trees: Bogard has a majestic health value and huge influence. Its canopy covers every corner of the oak forest in an invisible way.

Bogaard will bear half of the damage suffered by the oak trees. "

…

In an instant.

The oak tree began to rise violently from the ground.

In the dark.

It grows taller and taller.

There seems to be no end!

Huge tree crowns drooped in all directions.

This scene happened so suddenly.

Even Matthew was shocked.

"Fortunately, it was night. If this scene happened suddenly during the day, the residents would be frightened."

"Fortunately no one saw it."
