The necromancer just wants to plant trees

…

Early next morning.

At three fifty, Matthew opened his eyes on time. After hurriedly washing up, he went to the kitchen to grab a piece of bread, and then left home amidst the chirping of birds in the morning light.

He did not leave the mage area as usual.

Instead, he walked towards the center of the less visited mage area.

The morning light in early spring is still cold.

Matthew walked through a neatly maintained bush next to him. Drops of dew swirled along the leaves, and a few drops even sprinkled on his shoes.

A few minutes later.

He had already devoured the bread and stood in front of a two-story bungalow in the center of the mage area.

"Dong dong dong!"

Suddenly such a bell sounded in the bungalow.

This means it's four o'clock sharp.

Matthew stepped forward quickly.

He lightly knocked on the door with his right hand. It wasn't until a pompous and strange face appeared on the door that he said the password:

"The day's plan begins in the morning."

The strange face quickly split open, revealing a dark, arched entrance.

"Good morning, Matthew, and welcome to the Crucible Room. "

"I'm waiting for you on the top floor. Remember to press the elevator's acceleration button a few more times. You will experience an extraordinary pleasure."

A mechanical voice came from inside.

Matthew lowered his head and walked in.

What was displayed in front of him was an extremely vast space.

There is a floor paved with a strange material like mercury, an arched sky dome lined with star orbits, six marble columns rising into the sky, and a sculpture-like structure on both sides waiting in formation.

This is the Crucible Room.

It is part of a certain mage tower made public by Master Ronan.

You can buy magic props and materials here, borrow magic books, rent spell laboratories, build magic equipment, post team requirements, and more.

It's a bit like the Adventurer's Guild in many online games, except that the Crucible House only serves mages.

And its entry time is very strict, only fifteen minutes from 4:00 to 4:15 in the morning. If you miss it, you will have to come back the next day.

There are entrances to the Crucible House in at least four locations south of Eversong Forest.

But Matthew never bumped into anyone every time he came here.

He speculated that on the one hand it may be because there are still too few spellcasters in this world, and on the other hand it may be because the Crucible House charges an entrance fee.

30 gold coins each time is not too expensive, but it is still an expense.

Take Matthew for example.

If he hadn't requested to borrow books, he would never have taken the initiative to come to the Crucible Room.

What can I say about the stuff and services here - good quality at a great price.

The materials and props provided by Master Ronan are much better than those outside.

But if Matthew had a choice.

He was still willing to travel hundreds of kilometers to Baiyan City to find a businessman he knew well to buy it.

no way.

This is the kind of place where even if you don't have a lot of money, people will bend down even when entering the door.

…

Matthew walked towards the marble column closest to him - this is actually a magic elevator hidden in the column. You can go to the floor you want according to your needs. Different floors have different structures to serve you. Of course, you can also You can choose manual reception, but you have to pay extra.

When Matthew approached, he unexpectedly discovered that there was a woman wearing black-rimmed glasses and a traditional robe that was so shabby that it was waiting uneasily.

"Ding!"

The pillar rotated to both sides, and the magic elevator car appeared in front of the two people.

"Ah, how about you go first!"

The female mage said to Matthew a little unnaturally.

She seemed particularly embarrassed.

Matthew looked at her a few times, shook his head and said:

"No, you should go first, I'll wait for the next one."

The female mage was a little surprised.

But after seeing Matthew's determined expression.

She nodded quickly and whispered a few words of thank you.

Then he ran all the way into the car.

"By the way, if there is a voice asking you to press the accelerator button later, remember to refuse it righteously!"

Just as the elevator door is about to close.

Matthew smiled again and gave his advice.

In the gap.

The female mage tilted her head in confusion.

The elevator went upwards in an instant.

Matthew waited patiently for a few minutes.

A brand new car opened in front of him.

He walked in calmly.

As a person with whom Ronan has talked and laughed many times.

His privilege in the Crucible House was the exclusive service of No. 177 Talling.

This can greatly facilitate him to find what he wants in the vast ocean of knowledge.

No labor charges required.

Matthew was very grateful for this.

The elevator door slowly closed.

He could feel himself rising at a slow and comfortable pace.

A few seconds passed.

A stiff voice sounded in his ear:

"Sir, according to the current speed, it will take you 29 hours and 7 minutes to reach the floor you want. So, do you need accelerated service? I am your caring companion, Taling No. 247."

Matthew immediately refused:

"No, I don't need to. Stop playing such tricks. 177, it's boring to repeat the same old tune."

After a few seconds.

The voice said again:

"Tower Spirit No. 177 has been replaced by my murder. Now the Crucible House is my world. No. 369. Boy, if you don't want to fall halfway, you'd better be honest and press the acceleration button next to it. It can make people hapiness."

Matthew smiled and said:

"It does make you happy, but I'm sorry, I've already vomited once, and after that time I swear that I won't be fooled by you again."

The voice sneered:

"You can't get oil and salt in? That's okay, Matthew. Now that you've grown up, you don't think you really need to personally order whether the magic elevator speeds up, right? I'm the greatest tower spirit in history. Who am I? The king of the Crucible House! If you continue to be ignorant, I will personally help you speed up!"

Matthew grabbed the elevator armrest: "I'm ready."

The tower spirit's voice suddenly became evil and ghostly.

"Are you really ready?"

"Hey hey hey, Matthew, I have to speed up..."

Matthew closed his eyes and tightened the armrest.

"Don't be afraid, I will be very gentle, Matthew, I am really going to speed up."

Talling is still threatening.

Matthew suddenly opened his eyes.

"Are you finally scared, Matthew?" Talling said proudly.

Matthew let go and looked towards the elevator door:

"The top floor is here."

The door opened in response.

Matthew stepped in.

The top floor of the Crucible House is a large open space.

Above our heads is the endless starry sky.

On the open ground.

A construct over 3 meters tall, made entirely of clay, and wearing an exaggerated suit was walking towards Matthew.

It didn't look angry that the prank had failed.

Instead, he greeted Matthew in a humble tone:

"Good morning Matthew, welcome to the Crucible House, where your humblest servant Tarling 177 serves you."

However, Matthew did not dare to show off in front of him.

You know, the construct in front of you with a bad personality, longing for a spouse, and unbearable loneliness has 23 professional levels!

It is said that it is the only legendary construct in the known city-state territory of the human kingdom.

Matthew's strongest bone dragon was not strong enough for him to hit with one punch.

"Dear Mr. 177."

Matthew gets straight to the point:

“I want to find and borrow books from both directions.”

"Key words."

The 177 instructions for getting into work are concise and to the point.

"The first keyword is psionic energy. I want to find books and information related to "charging psionic items". "

Matthew said quickly:

"The second keyword is Su State, and the secondary keywords may include "Emperor", "Great Wall", "Jade Phoenix" and the like. "

177 ‘thought’ for 3 seconds after listening.

Then he replied:

"There are very few books on pure psychic research, but there are still some related to the charging of psychic items. I am not talented, and I happen to be somewhat involved in the field of psychic energy. If you can make the question more clear, I will Maybe I can give you the answer directly, so you can avoid a borrowing fee."

Matthew looked at him suspiciously:

"Will this cost more consulting fees?"

No wonder he wasn't careful. In the Crucible Room, borrowing books was much cheaper than consulting!

"You're worrying too much, Matthew."

177 said calmly:

“There was originally a consulting fee, but now it has been offset by the problems caused by the second keyword.”

"I'm sorry to inform you that the information related to "Su Country" belongs to the eleventh level of confidentiality. In the entire Seven Saints Alliance, only the Guardians of the Four Directions and the other three Masters of Tongtian are qualified to know. If you really want to know this content , my suggestion to you is to kill that bad old man Ronan and replace him as the Guardian of the South, so that you can do whatever you want. "

Matthew wasn't particularly surprised by this.

There must be a reason why Su State is rarely known on this continent.

The Seven Saints Alliance must have had their own considerations in deliberately blocking this information.

With his current strength, there is really no need to rush to collect information in this area.

So he sighed:

"So you canceled my consulting fee out of sympathy?"

177 Zhengse said:

"No, I'm angry.

who I am? The greatest tower spirit ever!

King of the Crucible House!

I worked tirelessly for Ronan, but when I went to look up information about "Su Country" just now, I was denied access!

How dare the old men of the Alliance of Seven Saints refuse the Crucible House—well, that secondary keyword you mentioned before is very good, and now it’s mine—refuse the Emperor of the Crucible House! ?

Of course I want to take revenge on him.

Not only is the consultation fee free, but you can come down with me later and take whatever you like. Don’t worry, I’ll support you in everything. The best outcome is that Ronan dies in the star realm, and I, Talling 177, become the South Protect and enjoy the beauties in the world! "

Matthew fell silent immediately after hearing 177's heroic words.

"How did Master Ronan train the tower spirit? Why is 177 so rebellious..."

He muttered in his mind, then quickly changed the subject and told the origin of the coughing staff.

177 said decisively:

"It's simple. The level of these psionic items is not high, and the charging methods are similar. The first way is to find a being with psionic energy to act as your human energy source, and go to the abyss for a few rounds. Some demons have Similar to psionic energy, they may not apply psionic energy, but the charge is more than enough.

Here I recommend succubi. At least 1/3 of succubi have a source of psychic energy in their bodies, but they almost don’t know how to use it. They know they are in heat all day long. Considering their strong and durable physiques and high operability, at the same time It is also a cost-effective choice. "

Matthew rubbed his temples:

"What about the second one?"

177 said: "Hold the staff and imagine that you are coughing."

Matthew was stunned:

"So simple."

177 nodded:

"Of course it's simple, but this method is very inefficient. You need to be mentally prepared."

Matthew silently wrote down the two methods, bowed and thanked Taling, and then said goodbye.

"Are you leaving now?"

177’s tone is a little more lively:

"You know, Matthew, I'm lonely."

Matthew felt a chill when he heard these words.

"Aren't there many constructs in the crucible room? Are they all difficult for you to discern?"

he asked politely.

"Don't mention those vulgar fans. Later, Ronan couldn't even understand the advanced wisdom technique. The constructs he made were all rubbish. I really doubt how he got me out in the first place. Maybe he lied. I It’s not his biological child at all!”

177 said unhappy:

"I expressed my needs to him many times, but what about him? One time I asked my spouse to be at least big enough, but he ended up catching a dinosaur very perfunctorily!"

Matthew was surprised and said:

"Terror? Dragon? Is this some kind of ugly term?"

177 glanced at him, shook his head and said:

"No, literally - it's a fucking Tyrannosaurus rex. Who knows how many evil things he did when he participated in the "Revival of Ancient Mythical Creatures" project! "

Matthew was silent.

"But that Tyrannosaurus Rex is pretty strong."

Ta Ling added another sentence.

"What happened next?"

Matthew had to work hard to cooperate with his confession.

"Later? I finally developed a certain relationship with Xiaohua - Xiaohua is the name I gave her. She has low intelligence and bad temper, which complements me perfectly - and I have a certain relationship with her, and my life is no longer so ordinary. , but that damn Ronan turned around and took Xiaohua away. He also said that there was a problem with the project and it was stopped by others in the Seven Saints Alliance, and even he had to return the experimental product."

177 said resentfully:

"To compensate me, he caught another Cyclops and gave it to me. The monster's level has almost caught up with my level of 17/23. The good news is that I also had some interest in this new love at first."

Matthew nodded.

"I guess there must be bad news."

177 sighed and said:

"When I couldn't find the entrance for three days and three nights, I realized that Ronan, who had been stabbed a thousand times, was so careless that he mistook the gender of the Cyclops!"

Matthew was stunned on the spot.

…

It was already high in the sky when we left the crucible room.

Matthew came to the oak forest tiredly.

Take a short break in the cabin.

He started today's work process.

But when he walked to the northern part of the oak forest with a shovel.

He suddenly realized something was wrong!

The ground ahead was clearly obliterated.

If not for the blessing of the Oak Domain.

Matthew might not even notice this trace.

"A Bing."

He silently woke up the knife dancer who had been waiting in the hut.

He just wanted to use the field to communicate with the oak forest.

At this moment.

Several oak fairies flew out.

They talked to each other word by word.

"An ugly, fierce and big guy came to the woods last night?"

"He blocked the attack of an evil Blighter for you? Well, you didn't find out until the Blighter left?"

"That big guy didn't go far, he just hid?"

Matthew's expression changed one after another.

Finally, it became slightly gloomy.

He probably knew who the big guy the goblins were talking about.

But what he cared more about was the Blighter.

This is the fallen profession of the druid.

They gain power by destroying forests.

A forest targeted by the Blighter.

Usually reduced to a scorched earth.

"I understand, don't worry, I won't go anywhere until I deal with that Blighter."

Matthew said and tightened his grip on the shovel in his hand.

After a while.

He continued walking towards his work.

No matter what happens.

Planting trees is still the most important thing!

…

night.

The moonlight shines brightly.

When the first ray of moonlight shines on the world.

The believer's badge on Matthew's chest reacted.

…

"In view of your performance in killing the three-headed Crazy Guards, you have become an official member of the Moonlight Society!

…

You gain the spell: Moonfire"

…

It’s been 39.8 for three days in a row, I hope it can go back tomorrow... It’s less today, I’m really feeling dizzy
