030 Matthew's Living Room (Part II) (6K)
β¦β¦
Eli instinctively wanted to fight back in the face of Rhaegar's movements, but when it came to the moment, he restrained himself, and his intuition told him that the man in front of him did not seem to have malicious intent.
He frowned and thought about the meaning of Rhaegar's question.
Then he shook his head and said:
"It's not."
Rhaegar was a little surprised.
It is a well-known fact that Matthew is liked by girls, and he also thinks that Eli belongs to the family of the "victim girl" like himself.
"I'm sorry."
Realizing that he was a little out of shape, Rhaegar let go of his hand, and immediately sighed and said:
"I really envy you."
"You don't know how popular that necromancer is with underage girls, if you have a daughter, please keep an eye on her, or I'm afraid you'll regret it!"
Eli's lips twitched slightly.
In the end, it is still true:
"It was my girlfriend who just got in."
Rhaegar's eyes widened.
The two men on the roof fell into a dead silence.
β¦β¦
In the living room of Matthew's house.
The atmosphere was also a little weird at first.
When two young women with different shapes and looks appear in an enclosed space, several rounds of meaningful eye contact are inevitable.
Soon.
Seve smiled sweetly:
"Matthew, do you have any guests? Let's talk first, Peggy and I go to the kitchen. β
said.
She took Peggy's arm with great ease.
The two of them went to the kitchen with an intimate expression.
Not much.
There was also a silver bell-like laughter in the direction of the kitchen.
Samantha retracted her gaze and said with some curiosity:
"Are all the little human girls so bold now?"
Matthew shook his head and smiled:
"Seve is an exception."
As he spoke, he poured Samantha another glass of milk himself.
"I came to you today because of what you said that day."
Samantha gets straight to the point:
"At first, I didn't think what you said was right, but what you said reminded me of what I used to ...... A friend. β
She took a sip of milk, her lips pressed together to wipe off the white foam, and her beautiful face showed a thick color of reminiscence:
"Actually, someone said something similar to me a long time ago, but I was too young at that time and lacked knowledge of the world."
"I thought about it later, and although you are a necromancer, you really don't look like a bad person;
That day in the hive, I saw you in the form of a raven, which was not the power of a mage, it was the wilderness form that only we druids have;
And no matter how bad the situation is, the Moonlight Goddess can't give the Moonlight a place for the Moonwalker to someone who has nothing to do with the druidβ
It was these reflections that prompted me to come to you, and I wondered, is it true that you can master the abilities of both the natural and immortal realms at the same time? β
Matthew smiled slightly when he heard this:
"I'm sorry, it's my secret."
Samantha blushed.
She looked a little cramped:
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to get into Your Excellency's secrets, I just ...... I just want to confirm one thing. β
Matthew crossed his hands on his chin:
"Why don't we talk about your friend first, if nothing else, he's the biggest factor you came to me, isn't he?"
He thought that Samantha came to him because he was impressed by his wonderful debate, but he didn't expect that there was another reason, which made Matthew a little frustrated and curious, what kind of friend would make Samantha, an old-fashioned druid, dare to break through his own shackles and come to him for verification?
Samantha was silent for a moment.
Long.
She said slowly:
"Well, about this friend of mine, let's start with my hometown, which is a village by the sea, and my parents and other adults in the village make a living from fishing.
I don't really have much memory of that village, I don't know why, I was nine or ten years old at the time, but my memories of my hometown are so vague.
All I remember was one day when all the people in the village had gone out to see the excitement, and my mother pulled me in, and it was on a rocky shoal, and we saw a huge, magnificent, majestic, and delicate ship on the shore β and I can't express the shock I was at the first sight of it.
It's like the armor of a god, and people are in awe when they look at it.
There is also a flag with gold characters on a black background on the keel of the ship, and the pattern on it is also very beautiful.
No one in the village had ever seen such a flag.
Many years later.
I just found it in the library of the Jade Garden.
It was the flag of the "Soviet State". β
Speaking of which.
Samantha paused, and she stared at Matthew with a strange look:
"Do you know Su Guo?"
Matthew quickly read the emotion in Samantha's eyes.
That emotion is called anticipation.
"Sorry, I don't know."
Matthew just felt that the word Sioux didn't seem to fit the lingua franca of the continent.
"Okay."
A fleeting disappointment flashed in Samantha's eyes:
"Most people in Eindo don't know much about Sioux and after I became a druid, I went crazy for a while to find traces of Sioux , but unfortunately it was really difficult.
All I know is that the country of Sioux is on the other side of the endless ocean, and from the Coast of Jewels, there are three ways to find that legendary country: to the north, through the ancient ice fields and barren roads, through the barren and dangerous Far East, there is a chance to reach the northern part of the country;
To the south, head southeast after reaching Sawtooth City, crossing the Doom Volcano, Voodoo Swamp, and the Brute Tooth Peninsula along the way, which is said to have a chance to reach the southern part of the Sioux Kingdom.
The last option is to cross the endless ocean by boat.
In short, that kingdom is very distant, mysterious, rich, and powerful.
Do you know?
The leader of the Sioux kingdom wields a legendary class called the Emperor, who combines his mana with the veins of the earth to unleash unleashed unrivaled power with a single move, and the Sioux say that he is the embodiment of a true dragon.
The Emperor's wife usually receives the legendary class called "Empress", and legend has it that she can communicate with the phoenix above the nine heavens, and also possesses great powers.
The Emperor and Empress and their courtiers guarded the land of Sioux.
But on the borders of the Soviet Union, in the gaps of the endless abyss, there were always demons eyeing them, and in order to fight these demons, successive emperors built a vast and magnificent magical wonder - the Great Wall.
It is said that every section of the Great Wall is more than 300 meters long, even at its shortest point!
The Emperor often visited the Great Wall to fight the demons of the Abyss, and his group of mages were all powerful characters, and they also had a special advanced class, the Great Wall Mage.
The Great Wall Mage is said to be able to use the power of the Great Wall to cast spells, and 10 level 17 Great Wall Mages can join forces to unleash a legendary spell of mass destruction.
Of course, the queen also has her own group of mages, but their special advancement is called "Jade Phoenix Mage", and it is said that their power comes from the phoenix ...... who signed a contract with the queen."
β¦β¦
Samantha's eyes clearly lit up as she recounted this.
Matthew listened quietly, but his heart was not at peace.
According to her description, how can this Soviet country be so much like a modified version of ancient China?
Wait until Samantha finishes speaking.
Matthew said with a look of fascination:
"That's a surprising country, so that was what your friend told you about?"
Samantha nodded:
"As you've guessed, my friend is from the ship, and he told me that their ship was in the deep ocean when they encountered a sea monster, and they had to change direction to avoid the sea monster's pursuit, and finally the ship was too damaged and forced to dock."
Speaking of which.
She suddenly laughed at herself:
"Saying that I am a friend may also be my wishful thinking, maybe in his eyes, I was just a little girl who was greedy and loved to listen to stories.
He was the captain's son, three years older than me, and they had countless snacks on board, each of which was an eye-opener for me at the time.
He took me on a boat to his father's room to use the Star Mirror, a mirror that could see far, far away, and see very clearly, and he told me how they fought trolls over 300 meters in the deep sea......
These things were like a dream to me at that time. β
Matthew was moved:
"You like him?"
Samantha waved her hand:
"It's just an unrealistic fantasy of a precocious girl."
"He and I played with him for about two months, and then one day they left quietly, just as they did when they arrived."
"I just remember the night before he left, he got off the ship and brought me lots and lots of snacks, and he told me that they had gone to sea to find a secret treasure left by the legendary archmage of the Soviet State in the endless ocean, and if they found that secret vault, they could get a new path-
It allows one to control the power of life and death at the same time.
He said he would come to me when he found the vault and wanted to share it with me.
Later one winter, when the village was destroyed by bandits, I joined the Moonlight Society and became a druid.
He certainly didn't come back.
Sometimes I can't even be sure if the magnificent black ship is a dream I had when I was younger. β
Speaking of which.
Samantha's eyes were filled with nostalgia.
There was a long silence in the living room.
"So you came to me, just to know if the vault that your friend said existed?"
Matthew asked.
Samantha nodded, and shook her head with some pain:
"I'd rather it didn't exist, or I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to continue to face my faith."
Matthew heard the words and said:
"Your faith should be in nature, not in the hands of gods who hold some of the authority of nature."
said.
He stood up and held out his hand to Samantha:
"Give me your hand."
Samantha hesitated.
Finally, he put his hand on Matthew's palm.
β¦β¦
on the roof.
Rhaegar only felt a tyrannical beast roar in his ears.
The wind swept by.
The wild man rushed to Matthew's garden at an astonishing speed.
"Let her go!"
Eli roared and tried to break through the window.
However, the next second.
A mighty force spread from Matthew's body.
A gentle breeze comes from all directions.
The house seemed to disappear.
Instead.
It's a warm and friendly oak forest!
Under an oak tree.
Matthew and Samantha stood with their palms facing each other.
And Eli.
His lunging movements were interrupted by the power of the realm.
He looked around in a daze.
Suddenly.
An incredibly long whistle came from his mouth!
Five seconds later.
The oak grove twisted and vanished.
β¦β¦
"You activated the Oak Realm, and with your help the Druid Samantha sensed the Oak Realm, and she would have the opportunity to comprehend the power of the Realm;
Druid Eli has inadvertently intruded into your Oak Realm, and with his great talent, he will have the opportunity to comprehend the power of this realm."
β¦β¦
"Huh?"
Matthew turned his head in surprise to look at the window next to him.
Outside the window.
Eli's face was distorted, his eyes were grateful, painful, and complicated.
"Eli!"
Samantha stomped her feet angrily.
Eli pushed open the window, gritted his teeth, and said:
"Let go of your hand first."
Samantha ignored him, and she looked at Matthew:
"I didn't expect you to really have the power of life, but you shared the Oak Realm with me, it must be more than just to show, what do you want me to do for you?"
Eli's eyelids jumped.
And yet under Samantha's murderous gaze.
He didn't interject in the end.
"Su Guo."
Matthew pulled out his hand: "I want to know everything about the Su Kingdom, and if I can, I want that hidden information too." β
Samantha nodded:
"You'll get what you want, the next time we meet."
Eli finally couldn't help it:
"And next time!?"
Sou!
Samantha turned into a leopard and threw him to the ground.
In an instant.
She turned into a brown bear again and dragged Eli out of town at a rapid pace.
"I'm sorry, Samantha, I didn't mean to break the agreement, I just couldn't control myself, I was always worried that you were deceived by that necromancer."
In the face of an enraged Samantha, Eli seemed a little resigned.
"Enough. Eli, I don't want to talk to you too much about it, there may have been a time when you and I had a good conversation, but your possessiveness suffocated me, I'm an individual, I have my own mind and judgment, I know exactly what I'm doing. β
Samantha crossed her hands on her hips:
"Put away your set, we're done."
Eli looked at each other in disbelief:
"For him, you drove me away?"
There was a hint of pity in Samantha's eyes:
"I can't have my own will in your eyes? What do I do for someone else? You've disappointed me so much, goodbye, Elder Tiger. β
Saying that, she turned into a leopard again.
After walking out a few steps.
She turned back and warned:
"If you let me know you dare to go into trouble with Mr. Matthew, you know what to expect."
The leopard fluttered a few times and disappeared into the night.
Eli held out a hand in a lonely manner, as if doing so would save the sturdy figure.
There was a fierce fire burning in his chest.
He stayed where he was for about ten minutes.
Suddenly, with a roar of rage, he turned into a fierce tiger and ran tirelessly, the only way to make him forget the pain for a while.
But running and running.
He came to the oak forest north of the town.
He had just sensed the Oak Realm, of course, he would not be unfamiliar with this place.
This is the realm source of that necromancer!
Instinctively, he flailed his claws to chop down an oak tree.
It can be a moment.
He put away his paws again:
"I can't vent my anger on a tree."
He muttered to himself.
"Samantha may just be angry for a moment, I shouldn't distrust her, that necromancer actually has the power of the oak realm, she is sure that she has found something, so she went to visit him, maybe I almost ruined her big thing, it is normal for her to be angry."
"I'll beg her a few more times, and she'll be soft-hearted."
Unconsciously.
He walked to the northern part of the oak forest.
Eli stopped suddenly.
There was a dangerous smell in the air ahead.
"You're still so sharp, little tiger."
A coquettish female voice came from behind a rock.
Eli let out a low growl.
But I saw a slender panther walk out gracefully.
"Quinna?!"
Eli said vigilantly.
The panther leaned over slowly.
She even walked up to Eli and tried to scratch the tiger's jaw with her claws.
But the action was dodged by Eli.
"What's wrong, little tiger? Not happy to be dumped by your little girlfriend? β
The panther laughed deliciously:
"Then I should let my sister love you well, after all, it's not the first time between you and me, isn't it?"
"Shut up, Quinna!"
Eli's eyes flashed with disgust:
"I was young and ignorant at that time before I was seduced by you, and I didn't know that you had become a member of the Blight Order, and our relationship is mortal enemies!"
"Before I plan to kill you, get out!"
The tiger roared and roared.
The intense killing intent solidified like substance.
The panther wanted to tease him a few words, but when he saw this, he ran away with a few vertical leaps:
"What a little tiger who doesn't know how to play!"
Eli stared coldly in the direction in which the other had disappeared.
His mind was not denied clarity by the loss of love.
"Quinna is here, there must be other people from the Blight Order nearby, what are they doing in this town? The only forest in the vicinity is this oak forest! β
Eli strolled through the woods and pondered little by little:
"The Blighters want to take action on the oak woods? No, there must be worse. β
"No, I can't sit idly by, Oak is innocent - I've benefited a lot from that necromancer's realm just now, and even if it's to repay the favor, I'll have to stop the blighters' plots!"
Think of it.
Eli had a big decision in mind.
He's going to stay in the oak forest to guard this place.
He's not leaving!
β¦β¦
Matthew's living room.
"Huh? The big sister with a good figure just now went out of the window? β
Facing Sif's doubts.
Matthew explained with a smile: "She's a druid. β
"That's ......"
Seve put her hands behind her back and her expression was unusually shy:
"Matthew, I'm here today mainly to thank you for saving your life."
Matthew was stunned for a moment:
"Haven't you already thanked you?"
He was already pondering the words to refuse Sif's next visit.
However, the next second.
Seve quickly took out a delicate and small bag from behind her and handed it to Matthew.
"Last time, I thanked you verbally, but this time I brought a gift."
Sieve's eyes sparkled:
"You're not going to turn me down, are you?"
Matthew stared at the bag in his hand, and he couldn't say anything if he refused!
β¦β¦
[Magic Bag (Super Edition): 12 blocks of hotbar/5 cubic meters of basic storage space/zero weight/movement speed increase
β¦β¦
Spell Attached: Cookie Technique (10 biscuits can be automatically generated per day as food rations)"
β¦β¦
"How much does this thing cost?"
Matthew asked in a hoarse voice.
"1,400 gold coins." "It made me spend all my pocket money before I was 15, but it didn't matter, I'll be 16 soon, and my dad will give me a lot of pocket money," Seve said frankly. β
"I can't ask for it, it's too precious."
Matthew said with a tangled face.
"My life is worth more than 1,400 gold coins!" Seve smiled and said:
"And I've already bought it back, you also know the situation in Rolling Stone Town, there are not many mages at all, and others can't use it, so you can take it!"
Matthew has a difficult face.
A phantom rushed over the kitchen and snatched his bags.
"I took it for him!"
Peggy said loudly.
Matthew glared at her fiercely:
"You told her I wanted a better bag?"
Peggy spread her hands:
"I said you just wanted an enhanced version, the one for 500 gold, who knew she bought the super version."
Seve spread her hands:
"Anyway, the gift has already been sent, so you can't stuff it back for me!"
With that, she sat lazily on the couch.
Matthew sighed and said:
"Okay, thank you for your kindness, I really need this, thank you, Siv."
Seve blinked:
"Everybody's going to want you back to classβI'm interested in the history you tell, but I can't read it!"
Matthew shook his head helplessly:
"I really haven't had time for classes lately, but if you need it, I can tell you some individually."
"Okay."
Seve straightened up from the couch:
"Let's start with the 'Hundred Cities Division', you didn't say it last time, how the Seven Holy Alliances ruled the Hundred Great City-States."
Matthew nodded.
He went back to the house and took out a thick history book.
Then he sat down in front of Sieve and explained it to her.
β¦β¦
Outside the window in the living room.
Rhaegar who tried to hide in the haystack listened to the conversation in the living room with a shocked expression:
"It's really just a lecture!?"
Right now.
A grinning skeleton stepped out of the kitchen door.
Rhaegar curled up.
The skeleton circled around the ledge and walked back again.
"It's good it didn't find me."
Rhaegar is rejoicing.
Suddenly, I heard this conversation coming from the room:
"Matthew Matthew! I've found a legal and stable way to make money with high returns! β
"You say."
"You can find a way to use your charm to seduce a few more adult and underage girls to come to the house for classes, and then we can sell seats under the windowsill at a high price!"
"Huh?"
"How do you know if you don't try, you go and ask."
Rhaegar looked up silently.
Then he met Matthew's complicated gaze.
"Uh, Mr. Rhaeggar, do you want to buy a ticket?"
He asked politely.
β¦β¦
