"Thank you for nature's gifts!"

Matthew touched his chest with one hand and saluted in the direction of the burial of Hesse.

The three new abilities were apparently from the arsonist.

And it's all practical.

"Heat Resistance" can reduce fire damage;

SCUD makes up for some of the maneuverability;

And the physique and tenacity provided by "tenacity" are what Matthew dreams of now.

Combined with Hesse's performance that he could run hundreds of meters after eating a knife in his back that day.

The arsonist apparently possessed more than one ability or trait that increased tenacity.

Matthew was content to get one.

"At present, there is no negative effect on nature's gifts, and I have used the oak field to perceive it, and for the time being, I have figured out the principle that "an oak tree can only bury one corpse in a short period of time."

Matthew's mind came alive.

Although he didn't plan to turn the oak grove into a new cemetery, if he encountered a suitable corpse in the future, he would definitely not let it go!

The only thing to regret is that.

Choosing "Nature's Gift" is tantamount to giving up the shell of a necromantic creature.

In a sense.

Matthew sensed that this ability seemed to be trying to lead him up the 'right path'.

Although the way of giving is somewhat evil, it is just a little evil.

……

The next few days.

Matthew planted trees diligently.

And Ella has always followed suit.

She looked at Matthew every day, hoping that the latter would change his mind.

Matthew, however, chose to ignore it.

Even when she gets too close.

Bing will jump out of the corner and stab her unprepared!

This scared Ella into flying all over the branches.

Of course, Ah Bing didn't mean to hurt her.

He was only instructed by Matthew to use Ella as a target to practice sneak attacks.

After each shot, he immediately opened the Night Cloak and disappeared, making Ella feel so concerned that she didn't dare to go near the ground.

No matter how much Matthew threatens Ella.

None of the owls left.

She did her best to follow Matthew, trying to convince him to join the Moonshine Society at every opportunity.

It's a pity that times have changed.

Until the night six days later.

Matthew finally finds Ella and offers to give her a chance, but only if Ella tells the truth.

"Why did you leave the Moonhaze Glade to come to me? I want to hear the truth. ”

Matthew examined Ella's eyes.

The latter gathered his feathers and shrank back:

……

"This is the will of the Moonlight Goddess, and that day I drove you away, only to be punished like never before by the Goddess, who slashed me 100 times with thunder and lightning, and then expelled me from the Moonlight Glade!"

"I must bring you back! If I don't do this within a month, I'll be stripped of my spirituality and exiled forever, and I'll be a beast...... Please, Matthew, I really know it's wrong! ”

"For the goddess's sake, please join the Moonlight Society!"

……

Ella pleaded.

Matthew pondered: "Sure enough, it has something to do with the Moonlight Goddess, and he can actually pay attention to me?" Doesn't it mean that since the Tianlun Palace was ascended, the connection between the Heavenly Realm and the Main Material Realm has become very weak? ”

He thought about it.

In the end, it was decided to go back to the Moonlight Woodland to have a look.

He didn't know much about the gods of this world, and there didn't seem to be the Moonlight Goddess in the games of his previous life, so now that he has the opportunity to come into contact with it, he can't easily miss it.

As for Ella the owl.

With Matthew's mind, he naturally won't continue to worry about her.

But the necessary punishment is still indispensable.

"What? You want me to do a 'start' for your oak grove once a month until the end of the three-year period? ”

Ella exclaimed:

"Do you know how much power enlightenment consumes me?"

Matthew glanced at her, then said calmly:

"At least you still have the strength, don't you?"

Ella shrugged her head.

It seems that he could no longer say a word.

……

The second half of the night.

The moonlight finally came out from behind the clouds.

Under the guidance of Ella herself.

Matthew once again set foot on the land of the Moonless Glade.

As soon as you enter the door.

Three moonlit rays flew up from the altar in quick succession.

Landed on Matthew!

That moment.

He seemed to be bathing in a hot spring.

The pores are dilating all over the body.

……

"Hint: You have been blessed by the Moonlight Goddess 'Moonwalker'.

Moonwalker: When you walk in moonlight, your Intelligence and Perception increase by 1 point each.

……

You have gained the Moonlight's bounty, 'Guardian of the Woodlands'.

Guardian of the Woodland: You have a full amount of regional reputation and legend in the Moonlight Glade, you can travel wherever you go, and you also have the ability to enter the Moonland on your own under moonlight.

……

You've successfully joined the 'Moonlight Society'!

Your 'Wildface Transformation' eliminates cast steps and forward swing in moonlight, and gains +1 to all stats of Wilds form!"

……

"Wow."

Matthew looked amazed, this series of blessings came so suddenly, in addition to joy, he also smelled a faint sense of crisis.

"What does the Moonlight Goddess need me to do?"

He knew very well that there was no such thing as a free lunch.

And Ella next to her seemed very happy:

"Congratulations, Mr. Matthew, you have become the first and only necromancer in the Moonlight Society!"

"Although you are not yet an official member, thanks to the grace of the Moonlight Goddess, you can come and go in the Moonlight Glade as freely as a full member - and most importantly, my mission is complete, and I finally don't have to worry about being banished by the Goddess, woo."

She choked up with a smile.

Matthew waited patiently for her emotions to finish.

Then I asked the question again.

"Or shall I personally ask the Goddess?"

So saying, he was about to walk to the altar.

"No, no, I'm your guide, let me pass on the will of the goddess to you."

Ella spreads her wings:

"Follow me, Matthew, and I'll show you along the way what you need to do to become a full-fledged member of the Moonshine Society."

Ella's voice echoed through the woods.

Matthew noticed that the emblem belonging to the Goddess of the Moonlight on the altar was fading.

He followed Ella all the way.

Walk through most of the woods.

Along the way, Matthew saw many souls of nature.

They all had the appearance of small animals, and unlike the natural spirits he encountered during his travels through the oak fields, the natives of the Moonhaze Glades were distinctly lifeless.

They are clearly the soul that symbolizes life and nature.

But in Matthew's eyes, he is not as energetic as a skeleton soldier!

The natives looked at them with a look of astonishment.

At first it was surprise and disgust.

But then, perhaps sensing the grace of the Moonlight Goddess, most of them were down in place for a while.

It was a long time before he looked at Matthew with reverence.

Their expressions and eyes are very stiff, as if they are forced to go for business.

"The situation in the Moonhazy Glades doesn't seem to be good."

Matthew noticed a detail, he didn't meet a single druid along the way!

You know, even if humans or elven druids are busy in the main material realm, there is a chance that druids will be born among these natives of nature's souls.

But he didn't see any of them.

This is unusual.

At that moment, he quickly followed the cheerful Ella, and revealed his doubts and thoughts.

Ella lowered the flight altitude slightly:

"You are very sensitive, there are indeed few druids in the Moonhazy Glade, it wasn't like this before, I still remember when I was a child, when I was just born, the souls of nature in the jungle were full of vitality, and every forest was inhabited by druids, and they would take the initiative to repair the scars of time caused by the natural passage of time in the half-plane."

"But then there was a catastrophe, the woodland suffered a major blow, many druids died, and no new druids were born in the souls of nature."

Matthew wondered, "Didn't you ask for help from the outside world?" ”

Ella sighed, "Yes, we have appealed to the Watcher Heights, the Far North Tundra, and the Blue Sea, but they have all turned us down! ”

"Only a handful of young druids who are out and about want to help us, but they don't have the power to change the situation, so it's what you see it now."

With constant deepening.

Matthew noticed that the trees were dying in the forests on both sides.

This means that the Moonhazy Glades is being attacked by evil forces.

"Why is Overden High Ground refusing to help?"

Matthew thought it was strange.

Ella flew down.

She stopped on a dead pine tree and looked left and right:

……

"Times have changed, Matthew, and people are getting worse and worse, and druids are no exception.

Although they reject us on the grounds that they too have suffered from evil and are powerless to provide support.

But I know the real reason, because we are the moon-descenders, and they, they are the darlings of the earth. ”

……

Portal's view.

Matthew didn't expect that the druids would refuse to help because of their factions.

Judging by what he has learned so far.

The Moonlight Society is an organization under the command of the Moonlight goddess Althea, who may hold only a handful of authority related to nature.

Since the catastrophe in Ella's mouth, the druids who believe in moonshine have all but gone extinct.

The remaining druids on the continent are members of the 'Earth Society', which is supposed to be an organization founded by some god who controls the power of the land.

There is no doubt that the god of the earth is much more powerful than the goddess of the moon, and his authority will occupy more weight in the realm of nature.

That's what led to the current situation.

To put it in layman's terms.

The Moonlight Society may have been once glorious, but now it is gone.

Matthew can basically understand why the Moonlight Goddess has punished Ella and why she treats herself so kindly.

I'm afraid the situation in the Moonlight Glade is so bad that the Moonlight Goddess is hungry.

It was only Ella who dared to drive out the living forces that might help without knowing whether to live or die.

Drove away Matthew.

The next one that can hit doesn't know when it will come in.

If she doesn't get hacked, who gets hacked!?

"If it's a land association with a thriving talent, maybe there will be no place for me."

Matthew thought about it one more layer.

……

"We're here."

Fifteen minutes later.

Ella stopped in front of a dark cave.

She rushed forward and said:

"Your job is to deal with those disgusting bugs here, and if you can kill one of the 'Madder Guards', then you will become a full member of the Moonlight Society, and the goddess will rain down more grace in time."

Meanwhile.

The taskbar has also been updated for the first time in a long time.
