054 The Way of Equilibrium

……

Nature's Soul is really conservative and open!

Looking at Ella, who flew away shyly, Matthew felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

He returned to the hut and recorded the conversation with the goddess in the form of a handwritten copy, and although he was exempt from the puzzle of intelligence, Matthew was not 100% sure that he would not be disturbed.

The next few days.

Matthew's tree-planting business slowed down slightly.

In the past month, he has planted 452 trees, which is unbelievable in the past.

And to be able to achieve such efficiency, Ella has contributed a lot.

If it weren't for her day and night to germinate the seeds, and Matthew's mastery of the spell of "rapid growth", the results in this month would not have been so significant.

Theoretically.

Rolling Rock is only the best time to plant trees in March, April, May and October, so the horse should go all out.

Unfortunately, the saplings in the greenhouse were running out of saplings - there was something wrong with the oak seeds Matthew had bought last time, many of which could not even be saved by Ella, the spirit of nature, and since then, Jeff the Merchant has not been seen at the Rolling Stones market.

No one in the town usually goes to Overwatch Heights, and for a while, Matthew loses the source of seeds.

He took the time to entrust another dealer to help bring the goods, but it was unknown when he would get the goods.

After all, the logistics of this world are still too inefficient.

On the other hand, Matthew has a lot of things ahead of him, such as advancement, and for example, building a cemetery.

In an underground cavern.

Silver Moon Zombies are wandering unconsciously.

"Ahh Yes! Yes! ”

I don't know where a few crows flew out of nowhere, and they dared to peck at the carrion on the zombie's body, but the "tree skin technique" blocked the pointed beak.

The crow persevered, but could not eat the meat, and then flew away in a huff.

Deep in the cavern.

Several figures were still busy.

"Yes, it's nailed here, hard work!"

Together, the mage's fire and torches illuminate a corner of light.

Figures on the walls are longing.

Under Matthew's command, several members of the garrison gathered the last ring of the fence by the wall, and erected a wooden sign sprayed with red paint outside the fence.

The wooden sign readsβ€”

"Matthew's Graveyard (Zombies inside!) )」

After adding a few alarm traps set by Matthew himself, the approximate scope of the cemetery was delineated.

The cave where the cemetery is located was originally an abandoned underground mine.

There are several passages around the perimeter that lead deep underground.

In order to prevent unforeseen complications, Matthew not only set up warning signs around the cemetery, but also blew up those passages.

In this way, the cemetery becomes an enclosed underground space, except for a few paths leading to the surface oak forest.

Matthew's zombies and skeletons will be free to roam here.

There are no private rooms though.

But it was far more spacious than the previous undead dormitory.

"When I come back from White Rock City, I will plant a whole circle of 'Underworld Robinia' near the fence, and then the negative energy in the cemetery will have a chance to circulate automatically."

A small tip was given and the garrisons who helped with the construction were sent away.

Matthew stood on the edge of the fence and thought.

Behind him was the shadow of the sparse undead.

This scene will only seem terrifying to others.

But for the necromancer who is used to seeing, there is an indescribable beauty.

"But the seeds of the black locust are not cheap, hey, sure enough, no matter what age it is, it is difficult to move an inch without money."

Matthew shook his head slightly in his heart and smiled bitterly.

The black locust is a plant that grows in the underworld, and like the phantom butterfly, the black locust feeds on negative energy, the difference is that when the undead are active at night, the black locust will release a certain amount of negative energy to promote the negative energy circulation here, and only during the day will they absorb a small amount of negative energy for growth.

The biggest advantage of this plant is that it does not need sunlight, it can be planted completely underground.

And once the cemetery is surrounded by black locust trees.

The negative energy here will hardly be leaked.

At that time, Matthew also planned to add something to the cemetery that the undead loved: coffins, shrouds, negative energy springs, loose bones, ropes, saws, rotting plants......

Matthew's goal is to turn this place into a miniature plane of negative energy!

In the future.

He even wants to integrate the ecosystems of the two spaces above and below the ground to form a closed loop that can circulate each other.

He even had the names of the relevant fields in mind.

"It's called the 'ecosphere'!"

"It doesn't seem that Aiindo has this kind of realm yet, and when I am promoted to Legend and can create my own realm, the ecosystem may be able to become a new realm of higher rank, covering the "Oak" and "Undead".

"Now that my body carries two legendary ways, I have to find a way to cover or dominate them, and if not to do that, at least balance them."

Just when Matthew leaned on the wooden sign and imagined.

Suddenly, there was the sound of rubble rolling in the depths of the cavern.

Matthew's heart tightened.

That's exactly the direction of one of the tunnels he blew up earlier!

Didn't wait for him to gather the undead.

A shiny bald head popped up from the other side of the tunnel.

When I saw Matthew.

The bald head was also stunned for a moment:

"See you again, hmm, Matthew, right?"

Matthew looked behind Lee Weiqi in surprise:

"Mr. Li, what are you doing here?"

Li Weiqi rubbed his hands, a little embarrassed:

"In the past few days, I have followed the scent of the underground creatures, and eliminated the nests of three underground creatures, but in the end they ran away. Two days ago, I got into a fight with a group of dreadclaws who had just woken up from hibernation, and I was almost driven to the territory of the bottom mottenfish, and finally went around and went back to the same place. ”

"When I got close to the surface, I got lost and had to open the way in an unconventional way."

Matthew walked briskly.

It was discovered that there was a passage that only allowed one person to pass through the place where it collapsed before!

Next to it is sprinkled with rubble.

Matthew was a little surprised:

"Mr. Li, you dug the cave with your bare hands?"

Li Weiqi said enthusiastically:

"Don't call me Mr. Li, call me Li Weiqi, or Lee."

"As for the cave, of course it wasn't with bare hands, I used 'qi'."

Gas?

Matthew had heard a little.

He knew that it was a transcendent energy practiced by a warrior monk, and that it had a very different nature from mana.

"Li, I noticed that your qi seems to be a little different."

Matthew recalled the sound of a dragon moaning from behind him when he confronted the enemy that day, and couldn't help but ask more.

According to what he knew, ordinary warrior monks could not make dragon groans.

And Li Weiqi's professional suffix is "Divine Dragon Sect", which shows that he also belongs to the special one among the warrior monks.

"That's true." Li Weiqi did not shy away from it, but generously introduced:

"The "Shenlong Temple" I received belongs to a special branch of the warrior monk faction, we not only practice qi, but also strive to use qi to simulate the form of transcendent life in the universe, the dragon is just one of them, and there are also warrior monks in the Shenlong temple who simulate the deep-sea giant whale and the snake in the sky.

Because of this simulation, our qi tends to carry different temperaments and attributes.

Compared to ordinary warrior monks, our practice is more difficult, not only to follow the precepts, to cultivate ascetic qi, but also to track down the transcendent beings we are simulating when necessary. ”

Speaking of which.

A wry smile couldn't help but spread across his face:

"There are pros and cons to this path, simulating transcendent life gives us more powerful actual combat ability, but if this transcendent life no longer appears in this plane, we will almost permanently lose the possibility of advancement."

Matthew was stunned when he heard this: "So all these years ......"

Li Weiqi said heartily:

"So I've been running around all these years, hoping to find the trace of the creature I simulated, but unfortunately it hasn't been seen in the mortal world since it left a paw print in the Shenlong Monastery two hundred years ago, and I suspect it has left this plane."

Matthew couldn't help but ask:

"What's that creature?"

Leewich uttered the obscure word in a very standard lingua franca:

"Beaulie."

"It was a strange dragon, it was once active in the Eastern Continent in ancient times, and unlike the five-colored, metallic, or rare dragons of Aindor, the Beaulieu was a much older and more powerful true dragon!"

"In the records of the Shenlong Temple, the dragon was born a legend, and when he became an adult, he had the power of a high-ranking legend and even a god, and I comprehended the qi because of its paw prints, but I also hesitated because I couldn't find more traces of it."

"Perhaps, this is fate."

Dragons of the Eastern Continent?

Matthew had a thrill in his heart and blurted out:

"Then do you know Su Guo?"

Lee Weiqi looked at Matthew with some surprise:

"You even know the most famous country in the history of the Eastern Continent?"

Matthew wondered: "Historically? ”

Li Weiqi nodded:

"I have traveled around the Endless Ocean and the western coast, and have met some Sioux people who have been living in the area, and they have told me that there was a very powerful empire on the eastern continent, but it was destroyed more than a thousand years ago.

Because of the fall of the Empire, you can see some Sioux tribes along the long coastline of the Arunesea Sea and the surrounding islands, whose ancestors came across the sea hundreds of years ago in huge ships and settled in Aindor, and today only the Sioux have retained their features, and most of them have integrated into local life. ”

Destroyed a thousand years ago?

Matthew was in doubt.

If what Lee Weich said was true.

What happened to the building ship that Samantha encountered in her childhood?

Matthew wanted to ask again.

Li Weiqi already smiled:

"Are you going to keep zombies and skeletons watching our conversation?"

Matthew hurriedly took him out of the cemetery.

Walking in the oak forest.

Lee Weiqi closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

When you open your eyes.

His face was also full of curiosity:

"You planted this oak forest yourself? It's incredible, I can feel the love of the oak trees, and the natural affinity of you, roar, I am not as popular as you are in the woods. ”

"But you are clearly a necromancer, and you have built a cemetery, etc., do you also plan to imitate the Sioux people to follow the way of life and death?"

Matthew's heart moved:

"The Sioux equalization? Can you elaborate on that? ”

Li Weiqi said seriously:

"Yes, but everything comes at a price."

Matthew nodded and said:

"Whatever you want, just ask."

Li Weiqi blinked:

"Give me a sip of water, thank you."
