A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees

Chapter 27



My Job

..

“The male Druid who was hostile to me just now, he’s not from the Moonlight Society, right?”

The tunnel was filled with water.

Matthew asked as he lifted his pants.

“Of course, he’s from the Earth Society. I’ve never seen him before, so I guess Samantha asked him to help.” Ella said happily, “Fortunately, Samantha held him back!”

Matthew smiled. “Indeed.”

Ella obviously didn’t understand what Matthew meant.

She chattered about the story of the Ancient Tiger, Ell.

..

“Eli is an orphan. A long time ago, his parents had provoked an enemy and were chased to the west of the Guardian Highland near Storm Valley.

“In order to buy time, Eli’s father died.

“Meanwhile, Eli’s mother carried him in his swaddling clothes and crawled into the tiger cave to avoid the pursuit of his enemies.”

..

” Unfortunately, his mother was injured, and she died after climbing into the cave. Before she died, she saw an aggressive but exhausted tiger.

“Eli’s mother said to the tiger, ‘Eating me is enough for you to fill your stomach. Please let my child go!’

“And so, the tiger silently ate her.

“The entire process, she didn’t make a sound. Perhaps she fainted from the pain, or perhaps she was already dead.

“In short, Eli, who had memories of his childhood, witnessed this process.

“It was hard to imagine how he felt when he recalled this matter!”contemporary romance

..

” After eating Eli’s mother, the tiger took Eli to the depths of the cave. There, Eli found two tiger cubs that had their eyes closed.

“That’s right.

“The tigress had just given birth. She was very weak and urgently needed to replenish her energy.

“If it wasn’t for Eli’s mother, she might have left the cave to look for food. Even if Storm Valley was the tiger’s territory, it was still a very dangerous thing.

“The tigress, who had recovered her strength, began to feed her cubs.

“Eli also had a share.

“I believe you can guess the story behind it. Eli was raised by the tigress and received the favor of the God of Earth in the process.

“His first wild transformation was a fierce tiger. Later on, through various fortuitous encounters, he mastered the transformation technique of the Saber-toothed Tiger and the legendary creature, the Ancient Tiger!

“His combat power was extremely terrifying and could not be measured by a normal Tier 3. Therefore, people had given him the title of a Tier 4 Shapeshifter in advance, which was the Ancient Tiger!”

..

Matthew nodded his head after listening.

“A very rough life.

“Then did he help his parents take revenge?”

Ella thought for a moment and said uncertainly,

“I don’t know. I think so.

“In short, he is very powerful. If you meet him underground in the future, it is best to avoid him.”

Matthew didn’t say anything.

His eyes were staring ahead.

All the skeleton soldiers stopped in their tracks.

“Drip! Drip! Drip! Drip!”

The sound of water dripping from the cave on the left was disturbing.

And in that deathly silent atmosphere.

The air in all directions suddenly became slightly agitated!

“Matthew!”

Ella belatedly exclaimed, “They’re coming!”

However, before she could finish her sentence.

Matthew’s robe instantly bulged and folded.

In the next second.

He turned into a raven and flew away!

“Hey, Matthew, wait for me!”

Ella was so anxious that her voice turned hoarse.

Like Matthew, she landed on a horizontal stone pillar.

When she looked down again.

One after another, rat-sized Zerg Larva emerged from the darkness.

They crawled like silkworms, their bodies covered in purple-green pus, and their speed was faster than ordinary people!

“Matthew!” Ella couldn’t help but scream, “The most terrifying thing about the Zerg Larva is its parasitism. As long as you wound them even a little, they can consume any living thing with parasites!

“We’re finished!”

The battle below became more and more chaotic.

There were more than a dozen larvae dealing with each skeleton soldier!

Just as Ella was burning with anxiety, Matthew finally said, “Other than infection and parasitism, what other abilities do they have?”

Ella was stunned.

“Isn’t this scary enough?”

Matthew looked at her as if she was an idiot.

“It is indeed terrifying to living creatures, but my summons are all undead!

“Can these bugs infect skeletons?”

As if to confirm Matthew’s words.

Suddenly, there was a sound from below!

The two lowered their heads and looked down.

A fist-sized larva crawled onto the knee of a skeleton soldier.

Its body rapidly shriveled.

At the same time.

A large amount of pus came out of the larva’s body and covered the bones tightly.

“Chirp chirp…”

A sound similar to a mouse’s cry was heard, and more larvae gathered.

They rushed to the place where the pus was flowing and were eager to give it a try.

However, in the next second.

A sharp sword descended from the sky.

Whoosh!

The blade sliced through the larvae’ bodies like tofu, and the pus exploded like juice!

Skeleton soldiers did not use any skills.

It only slashed its sword back and forth at the place where the larvae gathered, and a large number of larvae died!

After it was done, it even touched its knees.

After wiping off the pus, its bones were as bright as new.

..

[Hint: Your summoned creature is immune to the infection of the Zerg Larva!]

..

Your summoned creature, Skeleton No.3, has killed 13 Zerg Larva. Your XP +13 (EXP accumulated…).”

..

The battle continued noisily.

Matthew sat on the wall and watched.

Summoning his underlings to fight while eating popcorn was the greatest pleasure for a necromancer!

Moreover, from the moment the first Skeleton soldier raised his dagger, the outcome of this encounter had already been decided.

Just as Ella had said, the most terrifying thing about Zerg Larva was its pervasive infectious ability.

Against this kind of infection, even high resilience might not be enough to resist it.

This creature was the nightmare of all living creatures.

However, it was different for the undead creatures.

You couldn’t infect a skeleton with parasites.

Without the biggest threat, the Zerg Larva was essentially no different from a larger rat.

No matter how slow the skeleton soldier’s reaction was, it could still kill a few insects with a single slash.

What was more interesting was that the Zerg Larva lacked intelligence. They seemed to be unable to judge the situation on the field and could only rely on their instincts.

The battle was clearly one-sided, but they were still pouncing on the skeleton soldiers one after another.

After a short 15 minutes.

There were more than a hundred corpses of Zerg Larva on the ground!

Matthew’s skeleton soldiers were almost unharmed. The reason for the word ‘almost’ was because one of the skeleton soldiers had twisted its ankle when it was cutting the bugs.

However, it was a skeleton.

So Matthew could just twist it back after the incident.

After this battle.

Matthew found that most of the skeleton soldiers’ soul fire had condensed a little!

Undead creatures could also increase their strength through fighting and killing, but the progress was not obvious.

Matthew was busy planting trees every day, so the skeleton soldiers had been ignored.

Now that he finally had a chance to show off his skills, Matthew was quite satisfied with the result.

..

‘So is this the goddess’ scheme? The undead creatures seemed to have a natural counter to the Zerg race that caused this place to wither and decay!’

Matthew thought.

He didn’t stay here for too long. After resting for a while, he ordered Soldier to continue leading the team deeper.

Matthew and Ella were flying above, observing and commanding.

The road was smooth.

Other than the two infected humans on the third level, they smooth-sailing.

The skeleton soldiers killed all the enemies without any injuries and emptied all the hives along the way!

Although there weren’t any large spoils of war, the occasional dozens of gold coins and the XP that allowed the Skeleton Soldiers to level up quickly made Matthew feel that this trip was worth it.

As for the two infected bodies…

One of them was ambushed by Soldier when they first met. The latter cut half of his body with a short knife, instantly making him lose his combat ability.

The other one fought a straggling skeleton soldier. The fight was intense. The strength of the infected body was shocking. By the time Soldier and the other skeleton soldiers arrived, the skeleton had been mostly torn apart.

This was also the first casualty Matthew had encountered while exploring the cave.

..

“What should we do? Matthew, you’re missing a skeleton. Should we continue?”

Ella asked nervously.

They were now close to the entrance of the fourth level.

According to Ella.

From the fourth level onwards, this kind of wild infection would become common. Of course, it was not necessarily the infection of humans but more of all kinds of animals.

The infected body had the infection ability of a larva, strong strength, and good melee skills. Druids recognized them as troublesome creatures.

“What missing skeleton?”

Matthew chuckled. Then, he took out his Withered Wood Staff and chanted at one of the Infected Bodies.

Very quickly.

Under Ella’s surprised gaze.

A staggering skeleton soldier stood up from the pool of red and green blood.

“So as long as there are corpses, you can summon skeletons endlessly, right?” Ella’s eyes widened.

“I guess so.” Matthew added in his heart, ‘The key is still my upper limit for summoned creatures.’

“Alright, let’s treat it as defeating evil with evil…” Ella muttered.

Matthew looked at her silently.

She hurriedly said, “Then let’s hurry to the next level!”

Matthew shook his head. “No, today’s mission ends here.”

Ella was stunned. “Why? Did my words offend you? Uh, I’m sorry, Matthew. I apologize to you. I can finally understand the Goddess’ wisdom. Necromancers are indeed more suitable for killing bugs than Druids!”

Matthew yawned. “No, it has nothing to do with that. There are only four hours left before dawn. I have to rush home to sleep now. I still have to wake up early tomorrow!”

“Wake up early? Why did you wake up early?”

Ella didn’t understand.

“Planting trees!” Matthew said confidently. “Don’t you know that’s my job?!”

..

The next evening.

Matthew simply refused the eager Ella outside the door.

He sat down by the bed.

Soldier’s figure slowly appeared in the corner of the room.

Matthew checked the progress of the planting mission.

In the past week, he had worked overtime and planted a total of 104 trees, which naturally corresponded to 10 strengthening opportunities.

He didn’t hesitate and threw everything onto Soldier!

Ten rays of light flashed, and Soldiers leveled up three times, reaching Level 9!

There were also seven new keywords.

Four of them were blue and white keywords.

..

[Your summoned creature, Soldier, has received keywords: Shadowstrike (Blue)/Poison (Blue)/Farming Technique (White)/ Nurture The Children (White).”
