MTL - A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees

  Chapter 182 Melee Glory and the Fugitive Prince

  …

What?

  Regar was arrested?

   Matthew instinctively felt astonished, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that it was not impossible.

  He took a quick look at the vision and found that there were few related pictures. In the only information, Rhaegar's face did not appear. They were all statements made by the Bru tribe and the Blood Banner Kingdom.

  But the ability of world events is similar to Lorraine's chasing wind and shadows.

   It cannot generate such a message for no reason.

   Rhaegar must have encountered trouble on the way to Purgatory.

  Matthew took a few steps back and forth, and left the cemetery decisively, intending to go to the town to discuss with Zeller.

  Sif was placed quite safely in the cemetery.

   Currently, the two safest places in Rolling Stone Town are Matthew's oak forest and cemetery.

  These two ritual fields have mobilized the power of his own domain, guarded by Obest and Argus respectively.

  These two individuals are very strong. In the case of home games, if you want to quickly defeat them, you need at least a fifth-level four-member team.

   And this configuration is rare throughout the South.

  So Matthew was also relieved when he left.

  When he arrived at the Lord's Mansion, it was already dark.

   Matthew wanted to go to Zeller's room to find him, but he didn't expect to see some fire lights in the office hall from a distance.

  He came into the corridor.

  I heard a coughing sound from a distance, but when I got closer, I realized that Zeller was still working in the office!

   "I thought it was time for you to rest."

  Matthew didn't hide his footsteps, and knocked on the door by the way.

   Zeller looked up at him and showed a very charming smile:

   "Learn from your mages."

   "I've heard that the hardest mages will use magic to deprive themselves of the ability to sleep, so as to ensure that they can absorb knowledge twenty-four hours a day."

   "The second-class ones will also compress their sleep time to two to four hours a day."

  Matthew walked in and said helplessly:

   "It seems that I have lowered the average diligence of mages."

   Zeller smiled:

   "Necromancers have always been regarded as outliers among mages. Speaking of which, have you ever considered transforming yourself into a lich in the future? I heard that this is the ultimate dream of many necromancers."

  Matthew shook his head:

   "For me, the Lich is a dead-end choice. Obtaining eternal life in this way is somewhat self-deceiving. In the end, it failed to override death and is still a slave of death."

  He came to the desk, looked at the thick stack of documents, and couldn't help frowning:

   "You have too many things to deal with, don't you?"

   "What about the Committee of Five?"

   "Shouldn't many things be left to them?"

   Zeller put the quill on the shelf next to him, rubbed his face with both hands, and let out a helpless sigh:

   "The number of refugees is too many, and we need to continuously introduce targeted measures.

  The war between Gaoyeling and Hongtushan is expected to generate more refugees.

  The current town of Rolling Stone is like a raised plateau for the surrounding territories that have been plagued by war.

  Many civilians dragged their families and defected here.

   If it weren't for the legend of man-eating trees and zombies, there would be a large number of refugees around your oak forest.

  This problem must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise it will cause even greater disasters. "

  "The five-member committee can only deal with daily government affairs, and the current situation has developed to the present, and a lot of information that is troublesome is related to each other. I don't want Rolling Stone Town to always be behind the scenes, so it is inevitable to be diligent."

  Matthew said in admiration:

   "You are the least warlock-like warlock I have ever seen."

   Zeller took a sip of **** water:

   "Say it as if you've seen many warlocks."

  “People always have stereotypes about warlocks, and they naturally think that all warlocks are frivolous and unruly, just like necromancers always like to steal corpses.”

  Matthew smiled:

   "Some of my colleagues do like to steal corpses, but that is also a helpless move. After all, people are too expensive as a casting material."

   "But you're right. I'm just surprised at your talent and ability in handling government affairs, which has nothing to do with the profession of warlock."

   Zeller calmly said:

   "No one is born to like doing these tedious jobs."

   "But Rhaegar needs such a person by his side."

   Rhaegar needs.

   Are you on it?

   Matthew's heart moved, and he couldn't help asking:

   "He saved your life?"

   Zeller said unabashedly:

   "More than once."

   Night always seems to open up.

  The two looked at each other across the desk, with flickering candles on both sides.

  Matthew could see the color of memory flashing in Zeller's eyes:

   "I lived in darkness when I was young.

  It is difficult to describe that environment in words.

   It was like darkness where you couldn't see your fingers, and the surrounding air plates formed hard metal.

  You can't move, you can't breathe, you can't even blink.

  To this day, it is difficult for me to recall the details of that time.

  I only remember the day I met Rhaegar.

  I seem to have encountered a light. "

   Having said that, he fell silent, as if completely lost in memory.

  Matthew didn't say anything, and waited until Zeller's attention returned to reality before he slowly opened his mouth and said:

   "Unbelievable."

  “Actually, for a long time, Rhaegar gave me the same feeling as one of my artificer friends—she and I agreed that he was responsible for being funny in the crowd.”

   Zeller smiled lightly:

   "That's now. He wasn't like this before. The young Rhaegar was much more reckless and had a lot of problems, but he was always likable."

   "Think carefully, have you ever hated Rhaegar?"

  Matthew thought about it:

   "It seems that I have never hated him from the beginning to the end."

   Zeller asked again:

   "Then do you like Rhaegar?"

  Matthew reluctantly said:

"Okay."

  Zeller laughed and said:

   "That's right, although he has various flaws, everyone loves Rhaegar, and this is where his charm lies."

  Matthew blinked:

   "But our beloved charismatic king may be in trouble."

   As he spoke, he explained the ins and outs of why he made a sudden visit.

   "You mean, you have a bard-like ability and received the news that Rhaegar was kidnapped?"

   Zeller rubbed his temples, his expression a bit unbelievable.

   "Probably not a kidnapping, but a captive."

   Matthew Road.

   Zeller frowned:

   "Should be unlikely.

  The purgatory portal went straight to the hinterland of the Blood Banner Kingdom. If he was captured there by the demons of the Bru tribe, then the Blood Banner Kingdom might not be far from being destroyed.

   This is completely inconsistent with the news we received some time ago.

  The Blood Banner Kingdom is still very strong, at least equal to the Bru tribe.

   Is it possible that the news you received was a smoke bomb from the Bru tribe? "

  Matthew pondered:

   "You mean, we have to trust Rhaegar?"

   Zeller nodded:

   "He is not as unreliable as you think."

   Matthew scratched his head.

  No way, it may be that the inherent impression is too deep, and he can't connect the word Rega with the word reliable.

   "Regar is actually a very intelligent guy.

  He faced the Balrog alone.

   Also used Astral Projection to steal Cardcaptor's treasure chest.

  He knows Purgatory like the back of his hand, and his combat power is actually far stronger than what you see.

   It’s just that in most cases he is in the form of sealing himself, and only a very small number of enemies can appreciate his anger—

   That was no luck. "

   Zeller comforted:

   "Well, I will try to use the prophecy spell tomorrow morning to confirm Rhaegar's safety."

   "I'm too tired tonight, and I don't have much strength to cast spells."

  The same caster, Matthew, of course understands Zeller's situation.

  Since the latter has so much confidence in Rhaegar.

   Matthew felt relieved a lot.

   Immediately, he persuaded Zeller a few more words, telling him not to work too hard, and then left the office hall.

   Just when walking down the corridor.

   Still can hear a cough from time to time from behind.

  …

   On the way back to town.

  Matthew is still studying the ability of "World Events".

  A new discovery is that this ability actually has an event tracking function.

  Matthew ticked off the tracking functions of the three messages respectively.

   In this way.

  If relevant information is updated in the future, Matthew will have a greater chance of knowing.

  After the operation is completed.

   Matthew focused his attention on the first two messages.

  Before, I was only worried about Lei Jia, and didn't read it carefully. In fact, the first two news are the news that have a more significant impact on the world structure.

  Especially the fact that the guardian of the east killed the evil dragon in the sea, it was enough to trigger a "vision" that changed the entire east.

  Matthew clicked on the details.

  In an instant, he saw many, many—

  He saw the tragic scene when Chen, the Guardian of the East, was fighting the evil dragon in the sea.

   Shocking yes.

  This legendary mage was fighting the evil dragon close to his body almost the whole time.

  He turned into a huge shadow and entangled with the enemy. You punched and kicked each other, from the sea to the sky, and from the sky to the sea.

  The endless ocean tsunamis happened frequently because of this reason.

  Matthew noticed that Chen also used spells, but those spells were either melee force field spells, such as "Chen's Vajra Fist", "Chen's Bone Crushing Flying Palm", "Chen's Drunken Fist";

   Either it is a BUFF that strengthens its own attributes, such as "Legendary Power", "Invincible", "Giant Fighting" and so on.

  However, he is such a legendary mage with a punch to the flesh.

   He beat the evil dragon in the sea to death with a strong physique!

  Matthew looked at it for a while, although it was only a very vague slide, he was still shocked.

  …

  「Hint: You have noticed some characteristics and abilities of Chen, the guardian of the east—

  Legendary feature: melee glory (Legendary mage Chen completely abandoned long-range ability, he will not be able to attack enemies five meters away from himself, as compensation, when he uses melee combat spells, the effect is increased to 500% of the original)

  Ability: Boxing Master (Legendary mage Chen has mastered almost all the boxing techniques of Aindor since ancient times)

  Ability: sharp teeth (Chen has tempered his teeth into the ultimate weapon, it can easily tear apart any object with an armor level below 20)

  Ability: Starlight Tempering Body (Chen used the light of the astral world to temper his body, making its strength reach the demon level of the outer plane)

  …

  Chen killed the evil dragon in the sea and gained the "power of a hero"!

  Hero Power (Plane Blessing/Main Material Realm): In battles that take place in the Main Material Realm, Chen will receive the highest priority decision, which is the blessing of the universal consciousness of the world to heroes.

  Duration: 30 years.

  As a member of the Seven Saints Alliance and human beings, you also benefit from it, in the 36 months after Chen killed the evil dragon in the sea.

  You will get "Heroic Descendants".

  Heroic descendants: When you fight monsters, you will have a very small probability of receiving blessings from the universal consciousness of the world. "

  …

   "Didn't expect to be able to follow along?"

  Matthew and You Rongyan.

   Immediately he thought to himself again:

   "It seems that the guardians of the four sides of the alliance have their own characteristics, and Chen, the guardian of the East, is good at melee spells like force fields;

  Northern Guardian Roderick is good at the field of prophecy;

  Ronan, the Guardian of the South, is good at conjuration and thaumaturgy;

   Just don't know what the Guardians of the West are good at. "

  After Chen killed the evil dragon in the sea.

  Matthew saw the body of the evil dragon sinking into the sea, and a huge vortex formed on the surface of the sea. The vortex got bigger and bigger, and finally affected the air flow in the sky.

  The city that had been appearing in the sea and sky before was pulled to the sea by the air current.

  It gradually merged with the vortex, forming a spectacular magical spectacle.

  The last picture Matthew saw.

   It was the city hanging upside down above the sea.

  Although there is still a certain distance from the sea surface, it is not as far away as before.

  In the picture he observed, there were already some ships trying to approach the upside-down island, but they didn't know what would happen next.

  The message that can be determined is.

  The upside-down floating city is not the legendary ruins above the clouds, nor does it seem to be the Eastern Fairyland.

   It is a floating city that suddenly appeared in the main material world.

   Such an existence.

   It will definitely attract countless adventurers and ambitious people.

  The eastern sea area can only be said to be a wave of just flattening, and a wave of rising again.

   And in the details page on the troll tribe.

   Matthew also has more to discover.

  …

  「Hint: You have extracted the following key information by observing the vision established by the troll kingdom—

-

  Thriving: The trolls are firmly united around Shijia City, the capital of Yiwang. This new kingdom has abundant vitality and unlimited possibilities.

-

   Population Explosion: The troll kingdom is in a period of rapid population growth.

-

  United as one: The trolls are committed to revitalizing the glory of the ancient troll empire, and the people of the whole country work together as one.

-

  Sweet potato planting: The trolls seem to have mastered a new type of sweet potato planting technology. They can plant giant sweet potatoes underground or in caves, which can greatly increase their food production.

-

  Shortage of weapons: The trolls are all soldiers, but there is a shortage of weapons in the Iron Fortress. The short spears they are used to are not common in the market, and the trolls themselves are not good at forging weapons. "

  …

   "This troll kingdom looks promising."

   "It's too far away from Rolling Stone Town, otherwise it can be used as a potential alliance partner."

   Matthew pondered in his heart.

  Shijia City is located further north in the Helen Mountain Range, which is the hinterland of the northern border.

  That area is sparsely populated and lacks supplies. It used to be the territory of the Three Winter Sisters, and now a small number of humans, barbarians, dwarves, and trolls are active.

   Unfortunately, it is too far away.

   Matthew is only going to pay a little attention.

  However, the first kingdom has appeared, and there must be many follow-up followers.

  Aindor Continent.

   I am afraid that we will soon enter the age of kings.

  When Matthew returned to the cemetery.

   I just ran into the Scarlet Flame Nightmare. This guy ran out twice in three days, and he didn't feel stage fright when he saw Matthew. When he came up, he licked wildly.

   But soon.

  Nightmare tilted his head, and two streams of white light poured out from his ears—

   This is one of Red Flame Nightmare's hidden abilities.

  It can stuff a small amount of items into its ears, and its ears have the characteristics of dimensional space.

  Nightmare hooves merrily on those two things.

  Matthew took a closer look.

   The first thing is actually a map!

  This map depicts the distribution of forces in the Underdark region in great detail, layer by layer.

   It’s just that there are too many layers in the dark area, and the roads extend in all directions. Matthew felt dizzy after looking at the densely packed contour lines for a while.

   "No, this is not an ordinary map, this is a magic map!"

  Matthew quickly realized the abnormality of the map.

  The magical breath gushing out from the four corners is particularly clear.

   Has a hint of dark magic.

   "Where did you get that?"

   Matthew asked.

  However, Nightmare only knows about having fun, and Matthew can only get a very vague news.

   "Far, far away?"

   "There is a majestic city, and the statue at the gate of the city is a black dragon?"

   "Is it Black Dragon City, or Extremely Frozen City?"

   No one can answer Matthew's question.

   Immediately, he looked at the stone slab again.

  Matthew lost a forensic technique.

  …

  「Reminder: Authentication failed!

  You need more knowledge (gods/magic things/destiny) to understand the meaning of this tablet! "

  …

   Matthew was taken aback.

   Need so much extra knowledge?

   This means that the slab is of extraordinary origin.

  At the moment, he put away the two things properly, and warned the nightmare:

   "It's better not to run around."

   "Even if you want to run, you must pay attention to safety. Don't just rely on the "ether jump" to do whatever you want, understand? "

  Nightmare snorted.

   There is a posture of "I know, I will dare to do it next time".

  In desperation, Matthew had no choice but to stuff two escape scrolls on him, and warned:

   "Don't say it's my horse if you get caught!"

   After this night.

  Matthew continued to study spells in the cemetery.

   In the wee hours of the morning.

   Just when Matthew fell asleep.

   "World Events" has been updated!

  …

   "Private: In the territory of Escana, according to an internal demon of Sturuk Industry, the only male heir of the Blood Banner Kingdom was indeed captured by the big tribe, but soon he escaped from prison.

  Currently, the Bru tribe is trying its best to capture the fugitive prince of the Blood Banner Kingdom.

  Blood Flag Kingdom stated that the above are all fake news.

  They reiterated that the Blood Banner royal family has no male heir. "

  …

  Regar escaped?

   Matthew breathed a sigh of relief.

   This guy really has two brushes. With his net worth, he should have a lot of escape tools on hand.

  Purgatory is his home field again.

  I really don't have to worry too much about him.

  Thinking like this.

  Matthew went to sleep well.

   Get up the next morning.

  He deliberately planted a few trees on the land that is like spring all the year round.

  However, when I first returned to the cemetery.

   Then I saw Zeller rushing up:

   "Not good Matthew!"

   "Regar was really caught!"

  Matthew said calmly:

   "Didn't I know it last night?"

   "I got the latest news this morning, he escaped and is still on the run."

   Who knows Zeller said with a wry smile:

   "That's late news."

   "I just confirmed it with the prophecy spell. Rhaegar was caught again while fleeing!"

  Matthew was taken aback:

   "Are you arrested again?"

   "Can he be captured by demons twice?"

   Zeller shook his head:

   "The person who caught him this time was a private army from the Blood Banner Kingdom."

   "If I remember correctly, the leader of that army is one of his younger sisters."

  Matthew touched his chin:

   "That should be okay?"

   Zeller said solemnly:

   "No, very bad."

   "Originally, Rhaegar returned home secretly this time, intending to sneak into the old castle "Red and Black" of the Blood Banner family, and only met with a few trusted old retainers, and took away some materials and props. "

   "But the news leaked out for some reason, and now the entire Blood Banner Kingdom knows that Rhaegar is back."

   "All his sisters and aunts are looking for him!"

   "They are more dangerous than the demons of the Bru tribe!"

  Matthew was puzzled and said:

   "Why is this happening?"

   Zeller sighed and said:

   "If it falls into the hands of the devil, I believe that with Rhaegar's ability, there will always be a chance to escape."

   "But if his sisters..."

   "It can only be said that we have little hope of seeing Rhaegar in our lifetime."

   Matthew is a little bit pained:

   "But we can't confirm the authenticity of the news now, right?"

   Zeller also nodded in embarrassment:

   "Prophecy spells are always easy to be interfered by people, and the possibility that our information is all smoke bombs cannot be ruled out."

   "The safest way is to go to Escana."

  Matthew pondered:

   "Do you want to let Little Patton go?"

   "There may be some news in Bigfoot."

   "I think he is trustworthy."

   Zeller thought for a long time before agreeing:

"All right."

  So the two found Patton Jr. and told him the whole story.

  The latter patted his chest and assured:

   "I will definitely bring back the most truthful news about Rhaegar!"

   said.

  He drank the potion, turned into a Minotaur, and passed through the space-time rift again.

   Three hours later.

  The figure of the Minotaur squeezed over from the crack.

  But listen to Little Parton squeezing and shouting:

   "It's not good, it's not good!"

   "I found out that Rhaegar has been dead for several days!"

   "Um, is Rolling Stone Town going to welcome a new lord?"

  …
