……

That's really exciting news.

Matthew quickly put down the spoon, his eyes shining:

"No wonder I've never heard from the lord's wife, are there more details?"

Peggy shrugged:

"That's all I heard, and the dog man and woman couldn't wait to get up after they finished talking, and I thought they would continue to talk afterwards, so I hid under their bedroom window until dawn, and waited all night!"

Matthew scooped himself a spoonful of soup again:

"What a pity."

Immediately.

He reminded solemnly:

"Next time, don't crouch until dawn, it's dangerous, your stealth skills aren't good enough to come and go at dawn."

Peggy nodded and said:

"You're right, I was almost bumped into that day."

Matthew hurriedly asked:

"What happened?"

Peggy said happily:

"Fortunately, the man came back at dawn, and the family immediately became noisy, and everyone was attracted, so I took advantage of the chaos and ran out."

The man?

Matthew was shocked:

"So the man and woman you heard talking were cheating?"

Peggy folds her arms around her chest:

"Why else do I call them dog men and women?"

Matthew coughed:

"Which family is it?"

Peggy looked at him suspiciously:

"Why do you want to cheat too?"

Burst!

Matthew almost didn't spray the soup in her face.

"No, I'm just curious, just ask."

He flatly denied it.

Peggy cocked Erlang's legs:

……

"It's No. 27 Narcissus Street, a craftsman's district, and their man's name is Briss, who is a down-to-earth shoemaker with a good reputation;

The hostess's name is Jenny, and she was a lady-in-waiting in the Lord's Mansion and served the former Lord's wife. Jenny isn't good-looking, but her body is really hot, and I want to touch a few bones from her when I see it;

As for the adulterer that night, I judged by the sound that it was a horseman of the Blood Banner Lord, and his name should be Dagan. ”

……

"The adulterer of the night? Meaning there are others? ”

Matthew wiped his mouth with a tablecloth, inadvertently showing the acumen of a druid.

"Of course, Jenny is notoriously in the artisan section for not turning people down, and her lover can't count them on two hands."

Peggy's Erlang's legs are getting higher and higher:

"But if you want to know, I can also list the names of Jenny's mistresses."

"Thanks, but no."

Matthew was quite emotional:

"Peggy, it seems that even if you change your career to intelligence, you can become a party supervisor."

Peggy suddenly burst into joy:

"Matthew, have you finally discovered my excellence?"

"Then when are you going to give me a raise?"

"I ran out of soul crystals last month!"

Matthew skillfully got up and inadvertently showed the indifference of a necromancer:

"Next time, definitely!"

"Damn necromancer!"

In the restaurant.

The roar of the minotaur skeleton did not subside for a long time.

……

Early the next morning.

Matthew made another trip to the police station.

He compiled his guesses from the previous night on a piece of paper and handed it to Brad along with the secret letter.

The latter's expression was much more solemn after reading it.

When leaving the police station.

Matthew noticed a few members of the garrison yawning, as if they had just returned from a patrol duty, whereas in the past, there were almost no night shifts at the police station.

"It seems that the Blood Banner Lord has strengthened the security duties near the town, but I don't know if the roads, trading posts, and highway posts on the border have received the same level of attention."

Matthew didn't think too much about it.

He just did everything he could.

Leave the rest to the Blood Banner Lord.

……

Noon.

The breeze is warm.

Matthew stood on the southwest side of the hill in the oak grove to select the site for the next work.

Archmage Ronan's land has been completely covered by oak forests.

If Matthew wanted to expand his cultivation, he had to set foot in other people's land.

He looked into the distance.

The map of the oak grove followed in his mind:

……

To the southwest is the town of Rolling Stone, which doesn't have much room for expansion;

……

To the southeast are a number of large and small farms, where most of the crops in Rolling Rock grow, and most of the land here has been purchased by the farmers, and there is also not much room for oak trees;

……

To the northeast is an ownerless wasteland, but there are "traces of the dead" in the middle, and farther away are barren mountains and Ghost Castle, which are unlucky no matter how you look at them;

Only the northwestern part of the country is the most suitable.

But it was the Blood Banner Lord's private land, and if Matthew wanted to plant trees on it, he would at least ask for the consent of the town hall.

"The Blood Banner Lord shouldn't reject me because of his own prejudices, right?"

Matthew was a little embarrassed.

Archmage Ronan had long reminded him that the Blood Banner Lord was a very good man, but he hated necromancers.

Yesterday he got the reason again from Peggy.

He could understand the Blood Banner Lord's hatred of the House and the Dark.

But he also didn't want to save Seve his life in exchange for the right to plant trees on the other party's land.

In short, it hurts.

"If you can't do it, challenge the traces of the dead! It's a big deal I'll plant along the edges, plant a big oak forest, and wrap up the traces of the dead! ”

Matthew cheered himself up.

Tired of site selection.

He rested against an oak tree.

The afternoon sun is shining.

It's sleepy.

Matthew yawned and was about to take a nap.

Suddenly.

A violent tremor around him woke him up from his state of confusion!

"...... this?"

Matthew looked around blankly.

He saw that the oak trees around him were growing at an incredible rate!

From three or four meters in reality to three or four hundred meters in front of you!

Endless shade covers everything.

Matthew stood up from the ground.

He looked up at the oak forest.

And the oak forest was watching him.

Matthew could hear them whispering.

……

"Ah, that's amazing! A necromancer! With such perseverance! ”

"I hate the necromancer, but I don't hate him, what's going on?"

"Maybe there are outliers among the necromancers, maybe it's just that he made a mistake for a while, we should give him this opportunity to be evaluated."

……

Matthew walked quietly through the woods where the sun did not see the light of day.

A fawn glowing pure white ran past him.

Overhead, two woodpeckers are playing with each other.

Passing by the pond, a frog in a gentleman's hat greeted him.

Ultimately.

He came to the top of a waterfall deep in the woods.

The waterfall goes straight down to 10,000 feet.

A large number of green points of light flow up the waterfall.

"This point of light ......"

Matthew's heart moved.

The next moment.

An eagle-faced man appeared beside him, who said in a dull voice:

"You're not qualified to explore this place yet."

Say that.

The scene around Matthew receded as if it were rewinding!

Sou!

The vision of greenery vanished without a trace.

Matthew sat under the oak tree in a daze.

Below the taskbar.

The green dot of light on the right side of the Tai Chi symbol has been consumed!

……

"Hint: You've successfully set foot in Oak, a sub-realm of nature, and you've completed a brief stay in it!

……

In return for being involved in the field, you can pick one of the following three abilities –

……

1. Summon Treants (in woods that are over 500 years old, you can recruit several Treant companions)

……

2. Woodpecker Contract (You will get the Wilderness Form: Woodpecker and gain 3x flight speed)

……

3. Nature Immunity (+2 for your Tenacity)"

……

Matthew's eyes lit up.

What is there to hesitate about?

Choose 3 directly!

That moment.

Matthew vaguely saw a green light pouring into his body.

He could feel his body getting stronger.

"1 Tenacity provides a 20% increase in effect, and I'm now 44% stronger in terms of immunity in the relevant area than I was before."

Matthew was in a happy mood.

Although it can't be compared with the tenacity of the Sword Saint and the warrior monk who often go up to 10 points.

But at the end of the day, he took the first step to refuse to die violently.

……

"Detected that you have met two of the three elements of Legend (Legendary/Realm), you have opened the Path of Legend in advance!

……

Path of Legends (Sprout)

……

Keywords: immortality & nature

……

Field situation: 1/6

……

Revelation 1: Weak bodies, low mana, poor minds, ignorant souls - the way of legend will open up in you, this may only be the mercy of God, but it may be the error of the law, you should not have extravagant hopes for legends!

Honestly returning to your normal path is your only way to save yourself.

……

Revelation 2: Life and death, destruction and rebirth, do not always seem to be in conflict.

You've found a path you've never seen before, and you should go all the way to the mud and thorns.

……

Choose a revelation to use as your legendary slogan! (Different Revelations mean different Legendary Ways and different subsequent rewards)

……」

……

Multiple choice questions.

Matthew directly won "Revelation 2".

Next.

As long as he can continue to explore and carry out his own legendary way.

Then he will have the opportunity to master some legendary abilities in advance.

And after becoming a legend.

His power will also be stronger than the average legend!

So far.

Matthew finally understood the meaning of the Tai Chi symbol.

It's the embodiment of the "Way of Legends" in Matthew!

The general direction has been set.

Then he had to follow the two key words of 'immortality' and 'nature'.

"The green dot is full of oak trees, but what about the gray dot?"

Matthew had some expectations.

But at this time.

New news flashed before his eyes.

……

"You've completed your initiation in the Oak Realm, and the current situation in the realm is: Beginner.

……

You gain a permanent status 'Longevity'
