MTL - A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees

  Chapter 1 Excellent citizen Matthew and the **** **** necromancer

  …

   Gold Rush Basin.

  Rolling Stone Town.

  Spring.

  A robin with blue back feathers and yellow chest flapped its wings and flew from the lawn at the front door of the city hall.

   Over a few chimneys and a few brick-red roofs.

   It landed deftly on an oak tree surrounded by many red and yellow walls.

   There are insects crawling on the branch directly below.

  The robin is ready to pounce.

   can be suddenly.

  A roar came from the translucent glass window behind it—

  The insects quickly shake off the branches.

  The birds also flew away in a hurry.

   Only the five well-dressed humans behind the glass windows on the second floor are still arguing.

  …

"I disagree!"

  The rich middle-aged woman Liz slapped away the wooden sign in front of her with the engraved "Excellent Citizen Selection", and then opened fire on the bald man in front left:

   "Howard is a complete hooligan and scum!

   "He doesn't just like hooking up with married women.

   Also likes to hook up with married men!

  He always finds their men while women are shopping.

   There are dozens of times I have seen it with my own eyes!

  Dozens of times! ! "

  The more Liz talked, the more excited she became, spraying most of the table with spittle.

  The four men who were sitting couldn't help shrinking back.

   "Calm down, Liz..."

  The bald man spoke to appease:

   "It's just a nomination."

   Liz's attitude was extremely firm:

   "Not even a nomination! Howard sucks!"

   As she spoke, her slender eyes looked around, as if she had discovered something:

   "Is there any one of you who was collude with him?"

  The four men trembled and denied in unison:

"No!"

  The bald man even tore up the recommendation letter in his hand:

   "The committee unanimously rejected the nomination of Howard Rhodes!"

   Anyone who has worked at City Hall for more than a week knows how terrible Liz's mouth is.

  She is a walking rumor board.

  If unfortunately she makes it into the gossip, then the whole town will know the rumor tomorrow morning.

  All decent people here can't afford this kind of slander.

  …

   "Then, the last nominated candidate—Mr. Matthew from the mage district, well, the last name is not specified.

  He has just settled in Rolling Stone Town for two and a half years, and meets the criteria for the selection of "excellent citizens";

  The daytime job is a history teacher at Sever School, and the students like him very much;

  He still has a part-time job in the public security department, and Captain Brad of the public security department speaks highly of him;

  According to the referrer’s description, Mr. Matthew is kind-hearted, warm and generous. He doesn’t have many friends in Rolling Stone Town and always walks alone. The reason for this is that he is too busy to make friends...”

  The bald man didn't finish his sentence.

   A gentleman to Liz's left made a demur:

   "Mr. Chairman, a solitary person does not meet the 'standards for the selection of outstanding citizens'."

  The bald man nodded slightly:

   "Take it easy, Richard.

The recommender said that our Mr. Matthew planted nearly 1,000 oak trees for Rolling Stone Town in two and a half years, which greatly greened the environment of the town. Here, the oak tree outside the window and the one in front of the city hall The three trees are all thanks to Mr. Matthew.

  Plus the statement of Captain Brad of the security station.

  The recommender believes that Mr. Matthew has made an indelible contribution to the security and environment of Rolling Stone Town, and should be awarded this year's outstanding citizen award. "

  Everyone finished listening.

   They couldn't help but glanced out the glass window.

   "Was this tree only planted two years ago? Why do I feel like it's always been..."

  Richard, dressed as a gentleman, muttered.

   "It seems to be, I have the impression... Matthew is a tall, thin, handsome, and shy young man."

   Liz revealed a look of reminiscence.

   “This is truly a remarkable contribution.”

  Another man reminded:

   "But whether you can get along with other citizens is the most important criterion for selection."

  The bald man nodded:

   "As usual, this is true, but the owner of this letter of recommendation doesn't seem to write anonymous letters very often, and she accidentally appended her name at the end..."

  Richard clapped his hands vigorously:

   "The recommendation violates the rules! Directly rejected! Well, Rolling Stone Town still has no outstanding citizens who can be nominated this year, just like the past three years!"

  The rest of the people either shrugged or spread their hands, acquiescing to this result.

   But at this moment, the bald man said again:

   "The signer is Sif Blood Banner."

  Blood flag.

   is the surname of the lord of Rolling Stone Town.

  Sif Blood Banner is the only daughter favored by the lord of Rolling Stone Town.

   The room was silent for two or three seconds.

  Even the most picky Liz raised her hands:

   "Skip the nomination process, I support Matthew as a good citizen."

  The rest of the people seconded the proposal one after another.

  However, the bald man didn't finish his sentence.

  He slowly pulled out an old papyrus from the bottom of the pile of documents:

   "There is one last question. This is the registration form that Matthew handed over to the municipality two years ago. It clearly stated his origin and adventurer occupation...

  I wonder if he made a mistake at the time.

   According to my observation.

   What he has done in Rolling Stone Town these years has nothing to do with his career as an adventurer, or even contradicts it.

  Can be registered on this paper if it is true.

  I'm afraid he will miss our generous rewards for excellent citizens. "

   "What profession? Isn't it just an ordinary mage?"

  Everyone leaned over curiously to have a look.

  The first thing that catches the eye is a snapshot of a bright smile.

  In the occupation column below.

  The word "Necromancer" is impressively written.

"Wow…"

   Someone exaggerated.

   "If it's a necromancer, it's really not good. I remember that the lord hates the necromancer the most..."

  Richard said earnestly:

   "But it may be a misunderstanding, how about it, I will talk to Matthew after get off work."

  The bald man nodded and said:

   "Then please, let's do the assessment by the way. To be honest, I don't believe it. How can a necromancer plant trees every day?"

  …

  …

evening.

  Rolling Stone Town North.

  In the newly formed oak forest.

  A tall and thin figure is busy.

  With a shovel in hand, Matthew filled the pit with a thin layer of mellow soil with ease.

   There were several small sacks on the ground next to it, one of which contained saplings, and the rest were empty.

next moment.

  He planted the sapling in the pit.

   Cover it with several layers of soil with different textures.

  After transplantation.

  Matthew took out another bottle of green liquid and poured it on the soil near the seedlings.

   Light green waves surged.

   It can be clearly seen that the seedlings have grown a lot.

   His posture has also become stronger.

  …

  「Successfully planted an oak tree, your natural affinity has been slightly improved

  Cumulative number of oak trees planted and survived: 996」

  …

   "There are still 4 trees left, tomorrow will be enough!"

   glanced at the sky.

   Matthew decided to rest and go home.

as usual.

  By the way, he checked the contents of the taskbar again.

  …

  「Main task: plant trees

  Description: In the surrounding area of ​​Rolling Stone Town, choose an arbor for large-scale planting. Please complete this task under the premise of ensuring the survival rate. unlimited time

  …

  Primary goal: 1000 trees

  Primary Reward: Undead Summoning (Bone Dragon) & a lot of XP"

  …

  Rewards aside.

  If this task is placed on the druid, it is normal.

  But the problem is—

  Matthew is very sure that he is a Miao Zhenggenhong necromancer!

  It doesn't.

  It is clearly written on the character panel.

  …

  「Name: Matthew

   Occupation: Level 5 Necromancer

  Attributes: Strength 10/Agility 14/Constitution 11/Intelligence 15/Perception 15/Charisma 16

   Trait: Necromancer/Dread Harvest

   Abilities: Spellcasting/Scroll/General Knowledge (Necromancer & Magic)/Insight/Medicine/Gift of Nature/Summon Undead Creatures (Contract: 1/3)/Rotting Sac Mastery

  Spell: slightly"

  …

   "I shouldn't have double-opened to spawn monsters in the first place!"

  Looking at this nondescript and paradoxical game system.

   Matthew has mixed emotions.

  He remembers it well.

  On the eve of crossing, I double-opened the Swamp Monster in the Corruption Forest on the computer. The occupations of the two accounts were Druid and Necromancer.

   As a result, he crossed over in the next second.

   And became a necromancer.

   Immediately after.

  Matthew discovered something even more puzzling——

  After time travel, he has a game system.

   But there seems to be a little bit of a problem with this system.

  In the game he played, the system names of different professions were different.

  Necromancer’s is called ‘The Way of Immortality’;

  Druid's is called 'Heart of Nature';

  And Matthew's system name is a lot of garbled characters overlapping together.

  Aside from the garbled characters, you can barely see the words "immortality, nature", and there are countless watermarks of the other party superimposed on these two words.

   It makes people dizzy after just one more look.

  Matthew was numb at the time.

   Fortunately, the system stabilized quickly.

   At the same time, the first main task was released to him.

  That is to plant trees in Rolling Stone Town.

   Matthew, who has just arrived and is unaccompanied, asks himself that there is no reason to refuse.

   began to work diligently.

   This work lasted almost three years.

  …

  Mage area.

  An elegant and old two-story residential building.

  After returning to the door of the house, Matthew stopped in his tracks.

  He didn't immediately open the gate.

   Instead, he looked towards the alley opposite.

   Someone is waiting for him.

   "Mr. Matthew!"

  A youthful girl ran out of the alley.

  The two guards behind her hesitated for a moment, but did not move.

  The pretty girl trotted to Matthew.

  Although the sky is dark at this time.

  Matthew could still see the thick blush on her face.

   "Beanna."

  Matthew responded.

   "Matthew, I'm leaving for "Jade Cangting" next week, and my father asked me to go there to learn dance and art...I'll take a look at you before I leave. "

  The girl lowered her brows and eyes.

  Matthew nodded:

   "Jade Cangting is a good place."

  Seeing that the girl did not respond.

  He added:

   "The wood elves are good at singing and dancing, and their artistic taste is indeed higher than that of humans."

  The girl still bowed her head.

  Matthew had no choice but to say:

   "When you go to Jade Cangting, remember to write to me, so that I can reply to you."

  The young girl's eyes finally had some light.

  She raised her head slightly.

  The big eyes are full of anticipation:

"I will."

   "Matthew...can you give me a hug before you go?"

   Matthew is:

   "I'm afraid it won't work."

  The girl has already taken the initiative to hug her.

  Her soft body was pressed against Matthew's chest.

  He could feel the extremely fast heartbeat.

   "I like you, Matthew."

  Bianna boldly confessed.

  Matthew let her hug her for a while.

   Then gently push her away.

   Then he kindly reminded:

   "Beanna, you are still young, you still don't know what true love is; take a step back, you just see my surface, you don't know the real me."

  Bianna retorted excitedly:

  …

   "I know you!

  I secretly watch you every day in class!

   I understand everything you do!

You are a good person!

  You love plants and life so much!

  There is no better man in Rolling Stone than you! "

  …

   "I have reservations about this point of view... Ah, I'm sorry to bother you, but business matters..."

  A man's voice suddenly came from the other side of the room.

  Bianna blushed suddenly.

  She quickly hid behind Matthew.

   Next.

  Matthew saw a man dressed as a gentleman approaching quickly:

   "Mr. Matthew, I am Richard from the five-member committee of the city hall. Regarding the selection of outstanding citizens, there is an urgent message for you to confirm—

   This is the information you registered at the city hall two years ago. What is your occupation? Is there a fallacy in this? "

  Matthew took a glance at the document handed over by Richard.

   Then he said very firmly:

   "There is no fallacy."

   "As you can see, I am indeed a necromancer."

  Richard froze for a moment:

   "This is unreasonable, you don't look like a necromancer."

  Bianna also hummed softly:

   "I don't believe it! You must be talking nonsense on purpose!"

  Matthew looked as usual.

next moment.

  He suddenly snapped his fingers in the direction of home.

   Not long.

  The kitchen door was pushed open from the inside.

  A tall shadow came out of it and came to the garden outside.

  Richard and Beanna's eyes widened instantly—

   That is a two-meter-tall tauren skeleton!

  While walking, the skeleton was still saying hello:

   "Hey! Matthew, is there a rare guest tonight?"

  Matthew shook his head:

"should not."

  He looked at Bianna and Richard who were stunned:

   "Sorry to scare you guys, but I have to say—

   It seems that you don't understand me, nor do you understand the necromancer.

  Good night, goodbye, both of you. "

  …

  Night.

  The strong aroma of mushroom soup filled the restaurant and kitchen.

   Matthew and the tauren skeleton sit and have dinner.

   "What a pity, Matthew..."

  Skeleton said regretfully:

   "You really shouldn't let me show up. This time, you lost the selection of outstanding citizens, and you may also lose the love of an innocent girl... It's a blood loss no matter what!"

  Matthew took a sip of the mushroom soup, looking satisfied:

"I do not care."

  Skeleton asked with great interest:

   "Then what do you care?"

   "Let's do it in stages. At this stage, I just want to plant trees well."

Snapped!

  Matthew put down the bowl gently.

   "Peggy, go to the greenhouse and prepare the saplings I will use tomorrow."

   "I'm going to meditate in the basement."

  The skeleton called Qu and said:

   "Why do you want me to go again?! I have been working for 72 hours straight! I also made the love dinner just now!"

   "I'm so tired!"

  Matthew responded calmly:

   "You're a skeleton, Peggy, you won't get tired."

   "Besides, I only have you as a contract summoner. I don't worry about other skeletons doing things."

   Peggy couldn't refuse.

   I had no choice but to curse and walked into the greenhouse on the east side:

   "God **** necromancer!"

  …
