A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees

Battle Concept and Gossip

..

The ” Loose Gloves ” was a very interesting strange item.

It couldn’t directly provide combat power.

However, if it was used properly.

The value of this glove might even exceed the sum of the other items.

The negative side effects were also within an acceptable range.

When he didn’t need it, he would just throw it in a corner.

He sorted out the spoils of war.

While Matthew was impressed by Fein’s wealth, he also reminded himself, “The man didn’t even have the chance to use so many of his tools. It can be seen that whenever you fight with others, no matter how well prepared you are, there is a risk of sudden death.”

Matthew was a risk-averse person, and he was slightly tired of fighting.

At least for now, he was willing to avoid most of the battles that could be avoided.

If it weren’t for the fact that the Arsonist and the Evil Priest were threatening his development resources and he had the Bone Dragon, he wouldn’t have taken the initiative to attack.

But he also knew that avoiding battle would not solve all problems.

Therefore, he had no choice.

How to protect himself in future battles became the most important thing.

“No matter what kind of battle it is, the core principle must be to ‘stay alive’. Only when you are alive can you deal damage! From another point of view, as long as one is alive, even if one is on the verge of death, there is still hope for one to fight with all of one’s might and survive!”

He recalled the two battles tonight.

Matthew seriously summarized his experience.

The first combat concept he formulated for himself was ” Survival first.”

As for how to apply this concept in practice, many details were involved.

Matthew focused deeply on the concept of [Beware of sudden death].

Any profession with weak health had the risk of dying.

This was because this world was filled with all kinds of strange ways to kill people instantly.

Master Ronan had once given Matthew a book called ” The Death of a Mage “. The book recorded the sudden deaths of 99 famous mages in history.

The last page of the book read:

..

[If you still feel that the author is making a mountain out of a molehill, then you are likely to be the 100th mage who will pay the price of his life for his arrogance.]

..

Perhaps he was influenced by the book. Ronan held the series of spells of ” Garcia’s Armor ” in high esteem.

However, Matthew felt that…

The magic armor was useful, but it was too one-sided.

Combined with his gaming experience from his previous life, he set the three key attributes to highlight in his mind.

..

[Toughness, Immunity, Will]

..

Toughness was the fundamental attribute that resisted most negative statuses and control methods.

The benefits of high toughness were incredible.

If Fein was not an Evil Priest but a Sword Master, Phily’s Draconic Might might not be so effective. Even if the bone dragon was still a level higher and Matthew’s side would definitely win, the battle would definitely not be so smooth.

This was the most direct manifestation of the value of toughness.

“If a Thief tries to sneak near me, I can use ‘Blind Sense’ to counter invisibility. However, if the other party also has a method similar to the Dragon’s Might, I’m afraid I can only sit and wait for death!”

When he thought of this situation, Matthew felt a little worried.

..

Immunity was a key attribute to resist parasitic microorganisms, bacteria, fungi, and voodoo curses.

Willpower was more useful against Fear counterchecks.

According to Matthew’s current growth pattern, he did not have to worry too much about his ” willpower ” for the time being. The necromancer’s meditation would naturally increase his willpower slowly.

” Immunity ” was too unpopular, and he was usually the one who used abilities like Rotten Spore to trick others. As long as he was careful, he would not fail miserably.

Therefore, he only needed to focus on toughness. Training one’s physique could only go so far.

..

“Perhaps the Druid class has a way to increase their toughness. If it really doesn’t work, I can find a shapeshifting target with high toughness.

“I remember that there are also some low-level passive spells that can slightly increase toughness…”

..

After a long time.

Matthew finally pulled himself out of his self-reflection.

He opened the mission panel.

He had already mastered the spell ” Rapid Growth “. With his current mana, he could use it about ten times a day. This would definitely be of great help to the planting of trees.

The other reward was a little confusing.

..

[Entrance ticket to the Moonlight Society (Consumable)]

[Description: With this ticket, you can enter the sub-plane where the Moonlight Society is located with the help of a Nature Soul in the wilderness or forest on a full moon night.]

..

Matthew knew that the Moonlight Society was similar to the Druid School of Magic.

But was it really useful for him?

Even if a certain nature soul was willing to help him enter the Moonlight Society, would he, a necromancer, really be accepted?

“Why don’t I just give it a try? Perhaps it could work.”

He didn’t have much hope.

At the bottom of the mission panel.

The Taiji symbol underwent a significant change.

..

The gray energy on the left side increased by a large margin and jumped to about three-quarters of its original size.

The green energy on the right increased just a little bit more.

According to Matthew’s previous experience, after he planted four or five trees, the gap would be filled.

He was looking forward to the changes after the energy bar was full.

The next day.

Matthew woke up early and went to the oak forest to work.

However, after half a day, he had planted a few trees, and the energy had also increased to the maximum. However, the expected change did not come.

This made Matthew think in disappointment, “Do I need other conditions to trigger it, or do I just need more time?”

He did not hesitate for too long.

After all, planting trees was his job.

He was already very satisfied with the 10 points of XP he could get from each oak tree.

..

In the afternoon, Matthew went to Seaver Public School and the Public Security Bureau.

For the former, he went to the principal’s office to ask for leave, while for the latter, he went to Blake to explain the situation at the farm to him.

The matter of taking leave went smoothly. Matthew had connections, to begin with. Not only did the principal agree quickly, but he also asked him about his well-being.

As for Blake, at least from the reactions of the others, he had done a good job of keeping it a secret.

The people from the Public Security Bureau greeted Matthew as usual. It seemed that they did not associate Matthew with the necromancer from last night.

The two of them communicated closely in the morgue for a long time.

..

” You don’t know how chaotic the situation was yesterday. I tried my best to appease my team members and sent someone to inform the other team that they could return to the city. In the end, as soon as I arrived at the town, I was told that the Lord had disappeared. It’s very likely that he went to find the kidnappers alone!”

..

“At that time, all of us were stunned. I hurriedly handed Sif over to the people from the liege’s mansion and prepared to lead the team to the Ghost Castle again. After walking for a few miles, the Feudal Lord actually returned by himself! Later on, I found out that Mr. Zeller had a way to contact the lord. After knowing that Sif was fine, he came back.”

..

“However, I still brought some people to take a look at the barren mountains in the middle of the night. The environment there is very scary. The fog on the castle sinks to the mountainside. I don’t know where the bandits set up their camp.”

..

Blake rubbed his dark circles and complained softly.

Matthew smiled and met Blake’s curious gaze. He said casually, “Their camp is halfway up the mountain in the valley. The kidnappers died on the spot before the fog sank.”

Blake was instantly dumbfounded.

“You’re too amazing!”

Matthew shook his head.

He chatted with Blake for a while before leaving the security office.

On the way home.

Matthew’s thoughts were still heavy.

It seemed that the incident last night had come to an end.

However, there were still many doubts and possibilities.

..

First, the Order of Calamity.

From the contents of the letter, it seemed that Fein was just a shepherd, and his influence was limited to Rolling Stone Town and the surrounding cities.

Although he had destroyed the entire Evil Priest camp in one go, it was hard to guarantee that the others from the Order of Calamity would not return.

..

Secondly, there was a high chance that the Suki Family had spies from the Order of Calamity.

According to Blake, Sif was kidnapped when she went to the countryside to play. The route she took was very secretive, and no one knew except those close to her.

If this spy were not found out, they would always be a hidden danger.

Fein also mentioned the uniqueness of Sif’s bloodline.

This made Matthew curious and uneasy.

..

Third, Fein had mentioned in the letter that ‘the archmage Ronan was trapped in the astral world’.

At first, Matthew didn’t care.

He thought it was nonsense.

However, he had just heard from Blake that Ronan had not appeared for more than a year!

Not only in Rolling Stone Town, but even Jewel Bay, where he was stationed, had been in a commotion recently. There were several major events that had happened, but Ronan had not appeared. This was inevitably worrying.

If this information were true, if that were the case, the days ahead in Rolling Stone Town would not be peaceful.

..

The fourth was about the Ghost Castle. The soul of the merchant who had been intercepted and killed had mentioned that he had died at the hands of a tall man with disheveled hair.

Neither Fein nor Angele fitted the description.

Last night, Matthew saw a figure with disheveled hair as the fog descended.

This meant that the death of the merchant was related to the fog in the Ghost Castle.

However, his corpse was found by the Farmer on the road not too close to the Ghost Castle.

This was very intriguing.

“So last night, was it Fein’s Curse Creation that stimulated the creation of the fog? Or was it caused by someone else?

“Is it because Great Wizard Ronan is trapped in the astral plane that the evil creatures in the Ghost Castle are about to make a move?”

The more Matthew thought about it, the more his head hurt.

Until dinner time.

His thoughts were restless.

..

Tonight’s dinner was tomato cream soup, black pepper steak, and cloves egg tart.

Peggy’s cooking was still superb.

However, Matthew had a poor appetite.

“What’s wrong? My dear Matthew, are you finally in your lovey-dovey state? Tell me, which girl is it that makes you so hungry? It can’t be Sif, right? She’s your student!”contemporary romance

Matthew rolled his eyes.

“I’m just thinking about the problem.”

Peggy said seriously, “Don’t think about the problem while eating. This is basic respect for food! People will often take things for granted.

“Only someone like me who has died once knows how wonderful and luxurious it is to be able to eat like a living person.”

Matthew was stunned for a moment and said apologetically,

“You’re right, Peggy.”

He threw away those thoughts and began to enjoy his dinner.

Peggy supported her bony chin with both hands.

“That’s more like it, Matthew!

“By the way, let me tell you some gossip. I heard it secretly a while ago!”

This time, it was Matthew’s turn to lecture Peggy.

..

“Peggy, how many times have I told you not to run around at night just because you have stealth skills?

“This is very impolite!

“If you were caught, it would not only be awkward, but it would also be scary.”

..

Peggy shrugged.

“Then do you want to hear the gossip or not?”

Matthew scooped up a large spoonful of thick soup. Before the sweet spoon could reach his mouth, his mouth could not help but salivate.

“Ding…” he mumbled.

“Do you know why the Suki Family Lord hates necromancers?”

Peggy said mysteriously, “Because his wife ran off with a necromancer!”
