……

In the small dark room called "Garden of the Starry Sky", the light and shadow effects of the spells are varied.

Not much.

A clear image of a middle-aged man emerges.

It was the lord of Rolling Stone, Mr. Rhaeggar.

Matthew silently closed his eyes.

There was silence in the room for a while.

Matthew plucks up courage:

"I can explain."

Only then did Isabel say in a lively tone:

"No need to explain, I've said it before, it's your freedom to like whomever you like."

Ekmond was surprised and said:

"Isn't this the actor in the crystal ball last time? He was the lord of Rolling Stone, and I remember Matthew as his spell advisor. ”

Isabel's brows tightened slightly:

"Is that so, it's an office romance, and that's a little bit unpleasant."

Matthew hurriedly said:

"I'm just using Rhaegar to practice spellcasting!"

Isabel turned her head to look at Ekmond in confusion:

"Do you know what kind of nonsense spell casting?"

Ekmund shrugged:

"I'm sorry, teacher, I'm also in menopause, and of course I don't know what young people think."

Isabel squinted at him:

"You're really menopausal, I just said it casually last time, and you should be careful to remember it until now."

Ekmond pursed his lips and didn't speak, only wrote all the grievances in his eyes.

"Okay Matthew, it's still the same sentence, you don't have to explain too much, it doesn't matter to a mage, at least you're still thinking about someone. You know, when I tested Ekmund a hundred years ago......"

Isabel said to herself, and Ekmund was sweating profusely.

Fortunately, she stopped halfway through her speech, and the conversation changed:

"Anyway, it's not a big deal to be addicted to this kind of thing, according to the spell feedback, your body has a good acceptance of the Patronus, which is good, and it will be convenient for me to go in in a while."

"In addition, your soul is also several times stronger than ordinary people, this should be because of the traverser, no wonder Ronan takes a fancy to you."

Hear this.

Matthew's body trembled slightly.

He looked at Isabel in astonishment, and found that the latter's expression was calm.

Matthew glanced at Ekmund again, and the white-robed mage just gave him a good-natured smile.

"What's that look on your face? Traversers are not a rare thing, and Aindo's crystal wall system has long been like a bustard standing on the street for 20 years, worn by all kinds of visitors from outside the world. ”

Isabel recounted calmly.

Ekmond also added:

"There is no shortage of travelers in the land of Ayndo.

In fact, the spell that Teacher Isabel was going to use for a while, the Patronus, was also brought by a time-traveler from another universe.

It is a spell that is completely independent of the existing plane rules of Aindor.

None of our magical knowledge can explain this spell.

After a period of running-in, a new school of spells was born within the alliance -

Otherworldly spells.

It is undeniable that many traversers are very good existences.

Therefore, in the early days of the Enlightenment, the conservative gods also carried out a round of persecution against you visitors.

But when a man who crossed over from the Icecrown Nebula became a god, everything changed.

Since then, several divine wars have broken out in the Heavenly Realm, and the current pattern of Tianlun Palace was determined in those wars.

Unfortunately, the god-bound traverser was betrayed by his men in the final battle and eventually fell.

His body turned into a meteor and fell to the earth.

Because of His unique authority, the fragments of these corpses, when they struck Aindor, formed the spectacle of "ruins on the clouds". ”

Ruins on the clouds?

Matthew's heart moved, wasn't Lorain's godhead picked up from the ruins on the clouds?

I didn't expect this to be related to a traverser.

Ekmund probably knew that Matthew's basic skills were not solid, so he explained a few more words:

"In history, there have been one hundred and twenty traversers just by ascending to the Alliance, and you are the one hundred and twenty-one.

According to our rough estimates, over the past 3,000 years, Aindor has welcomed nearly 2,000 visitors from outside the world, who have breathed life into the land.

But due to the era and background, under the gaze of the gods, they did not appear to be more outstanding than the natives of Aindo.

Except, of course, for the one hundred and twentieth traverser recorded by the Alliance.

That person is the Scourge Mage. ”

Speaking of which.

Isabel suddenly added coldly:

"She is different from ordinary time-travelers, she came to this world in another way!"

Matthew reacted quickly:

"Flesh?"

Isabel nodded:

"More than ninety-nine percent of the traversers are soul traversal, which is a relatively simple and convenient way.

After all, there are too many random factors in the multiverse, and the soul realm involves a high-dimensional level, and it is relatively common for a crossing to occur by mistake.

Generally speaking, the soul of the traverser must be very strong-

It's not because going through this process makes your soul stronger, but if your soul isn't strong enough to a certain extent, in the process of penetrating the crystal wall system, your consciousness will have long been wiped out in the turbulence of time and space, and there is no chance to find the landing point of random factors. ”

"But even then, you're just the lucky ones who qualify."

"But Yin is different, she's a completely different level of life, you know? Matthew? ”

As she spoke, Isabel seemed to be caught up in a long memory.

Her gaze stared vacantly at Matthew.

Matthew was a little embarrassed, he couldn't be sure if Isabel was saying a question or a statement.

So he could only bite the bullet and say:

"I don't know."

Isabel's hair trembled, and she suddenly said in displeasure:

"I didn't expect you to answer, next time I don't know, don't speak, your voice interrupted my thinking, I'm in a bad mood right now!"

Matthew was stunned.

Isabel suddenly turned to Ekmond and asked:

"You know what?"

Who knew that Ekmond actually hesitated:

"If I don't know, should I answer that I don't know, or don't speak?"

The white hair behind Isabel flew up.

Seeing this, Matthew hurriedly relieved the siege and said:

"Teacher, I recently met an orc from Sturluk who told me that her hometown was destroyed by a space necromancer unit of the Antu Empire, and that force is now entrenched in Sturluk, which doesn't seem to be far from Ayndor."

Isabel's attention was slightly diverted.

She thought about it for a moment:

"The Antu Empire? The name is somewhat familiar, and I remember that it has self-destructed, so it shouldn't be a cause for concern. ”

Ekmond also took the opportunity to participate in the discussion:

"The Antu Empire has indeed been confirmed to have self-destructed, it was once a powerful force from the depths of the astral plane, it was once the imaginary enemy of the gods of Tianlun Palace, but before the two sides could have friction, the Antu Empire was finished.

We have also received reports on the space necromantic force you mentioned, but after all, Sturuk is outside the crystal wall of the material realm, and our alliance has not yet grown enough to interfere in the affairs of the astral plane. ”

Hear this.

Isabel choked meaningfully:

"Your alliance probably won't have a chance to grow to that point, and before then, it will corrupt, collapse, and even destroy itself like the Antu Empire."

Ekmund only smiled wryly.

A look of impatience appeared on Isabel's face:

"Don't grind, let's get started!"

The voice fell.

An extremely bright spell light fell from the stardom and focused on Matthew.

He only felt his body floating.

There was a white expanse in front of me.

In a daze.

He felt as if something was running out of his chest.

It jumped down its chest to its shoulders, and then ran frantically around all parts of Matthew's body.

"Let me see, where is Ronan's Patronus hidden?"

"Oh, little one, where are you hiding?!"

"Hey, how did you get a layer broken?"

Isabel's voice came from far away from the white light.

Matthew couldn't see her face, only her voice could be heard near and far.

His eyes were stimulated by the white light, and he couldn't stop crying.

In a daze.

He heard a crisp wail!

"Got you!"

Isabel smirked.

Matthew could sense that the little thing was being dragged out of his body.

He squinted hard, finally seeing what it looked like.

It was a miniature holy stag!

"So Ronan's Patronus looks like this."

Matthew thought to himself.

Seeing that the stag was being caught farther and farther away, Isabel's reminder also came:

"I'm coming in, Matthew."

Followed by.

It's a terrifying dragon moan!

Between the white lights of the sky.

The image of a huge, pitch-black, hideous-looking dragon appeared in front of Matthew.

The dragon's head was the size of a mountain, and he seemed to be able to swallow Matthew with one mouth.

"Go! Guard! Snatch! ”

Isabel methodically recited a few incantations.

The dragon turned into a puff of smoke.

Domineering into Matthew's chest.

He looked down and saw that there was no sign on his chest.

There is also no prompt from the system.

This spell called the Patronus is truly magical!

In a flash.

The white light is all converged.

Matthew found himself still standing firmly on the floor, and the scene seemed to be an illusion.

"Ronan's Patronus can only be triggered twice, and it's already consumed once, so it's not a loss for me to get rid of him."

"And my Patronus will not only defend your life at critical moments, but will also launch fierce counterattacks against enemies, effective up to five times."

Isabel explained in a cheerful tone:

"If you use up all five chances, and your life is in danger for the sixth, my Patronus will appear in front of the enemy and eat your soul! Even if you don't use up these five times, fifty years later, he will appear and eat your soul. ”

Matthew looked at her in amazement.

"The only solution is that you have to be a legend within fifty years, or you can curse me to die in fifty years, but it's hard, and instead of that, you might as well pray that I will live enough to commit suicide one day, the latter is more likely."

Facing Isabel's smile.

Matthew felt a little bit of pressure.

He asked curiously:

"Ronan, Blinken, do they have your Patronus on them too?"

Isabel lazily replied:

"Ronan, that rebellious guy, he would have replaced the Patronus I gave him with his wife's, and as for Blinken, he does have it, but it should be almost fifty years old."

Matthew secretly said that it was a fluke.

Fortunately, I didn't play Blinken last time!

I didn't expect this guy to carry the same patronus spirit as himself, that evil dragon is not easy to provoke at first glance, at least it needs the power of the legend to resist!

After infusing the Patronus.

Isabel looked visibly lacking in interest.

Ekmond revealed some of the content plans for the S1 project to Matthew.

Matthew nodded his head.

It just so happens that his main mission is to take out the traces of the dead, and with the support of the alliance, it must be a hundred times stronger than doing it alone.

After Ekmond finished speaking.

Matthew hurriedly asked:

"I have an urgent project to explore the outer layer, I wonder if I can apply to the Alliance to recruit some colleagues and apprentices to come over as my assistants?"

Isabel yawned:

"Yes, I'm going to sleep."

With that, she disappeared from Matthew's vision.

Matthew looked at Ekmond.

Under the latter's gaze, Matthew explained the situation in the Moonhazy Glade.

Ekmond mused:

"It turns out that the plane gap formed in this situation, it is not very dangerous, if it is an urgent project, it may not be able to recruit enough people, don't you have a visit project over there? I've got a special approval for you, so let them help you explore the outer layer! How about the funds allocated to you according to the B1 project? ”

Matthew nodded happily.

Sure enough, I still have to join a big organization!

……

Leave the Crucible House.

Matthew worked non-stop to reclaim the cemetery – it should be said that he directed Sinwak to reclaim the cemetery.

After a day and a night.

The underground space of the oak grove was more than doubled by Matthew.

At this point, the scope of the cemetery has been determined.

The underground space is in the shape of a long strip, as is the cemetery.

The cemetery is about 600 meters long from north to south and about 80 meters wide from east to west, covering an area of more than 70 acres.

Later, Matthew rigorously formulated the "renovation plan" of the cemetery.

In order to speed up the progress.

Matthew even paid the town's workers and garrison to come over and do some delicate work that zombies couldn't do.

Of course, while the workers were working, the undead were separated.

Spurred on by gold coins, the workers were efficient.

In less than a week, the soft and hard decoration of the cemetery was completed.

Night.

Matthew and Peggy walk in the cemetery, occasionally saying hello to the zombie skeletons passing by, and their hearts are full of joy.

"This is the zombie area, the skull area over there, and there will be a ghost area, a banshee area, a mummy area, a vampire area, and ...... in the future."

"In the center of all the undead functional areas is this "Negative Energy Fountain", the water here is flowing, and it is directly connected to the negative energy plane through the base below, Peggy, if you feel that the negative energy is insufficient in the future, you don't need to buy stones anymore, just come here and lie down for a while."

Matthew introduced as he stood in front of the beautiful little fountain in the center of the cemetery.

"Wow, you really hugged your thighs Matthew!"

Peggy looked pleasantly surprised.

Immediately, she pointed to the six extremely high-quality "Boundary Heart Stones" on the base of the negative energy fountain and asked:

"These stones aren't cheap, are they? I think at least one piece costs 100 gold coins. ”

Matthew smiled quietly:

"It's a little more expensive than 100 gold."

Peggy suddenly tilted her head and looked at him:

"Since joining the Seven Saints Alliance, you no longer let me take care of the accounts like before, and it worries me a lot when you do this, Matthew, many boys just go bad because they suddenly have a lot of money."

"I suggest you keep the money with me and I'll spend it for you—no, it's safer for you to keep it."

Matthew Stall:

"Actually, I didn't make much money from the alliance project, and after buying two magic props, all the remaining money was smashed in this cemetery."

Peggy said calmly:

"Just tell me how much money you spent, I'm mentally prepared."

Matthew confessed:

"Fifteen thousand six hundred and seventy-four gold coins."

Straddle.

The minotaur skeleton lies in a fountain of negative energy.

I couldn't say a word.

Good half a day.

She was relieved by the wash of negative energy.

Peggy covered her heart with her hands, and her soul fire jumped like a flea:

"Ten thousand gold coins? I don't even know what a thousand gold coins are like in my life! ”

"Maybe you have your intentions, but ...... Woooooooo ”

"necromancer! Before spending money next time, can you let me count how much 10,000 gold coins are? ”

……

The cost of the cemetery did exceed Matthew's expectations.

But he retained all the designs that he considered necessary.

Most of the area in the cemetery is reserved for future immortals, and in addition to this, Matthew has asked several stone houses to be built here for himself as a studio.

It's a very complete ceremonial venue.

Matthew could clearly perceive that the zombies and skeletons had become stronger.

Their bodies and souls were nourished at the same time.

In the long run, this is absolutely necessary.

In fact, in addition to the boundary stones and labor costs used to construct the negative energy fountain, the biggest cost of the cemetery comes from the "black locust in the underworld" around it.

Matthew inquired around and found that neither the Alliance channel nor the Crucible House channel could buy the Netherworld Robinia or its seeds.

Even in White Rock City, they could only buy expensive adult plants and not seeds.

Matthew could only grit his teeth and buy the minimum number of Netherworld Robinia needed to maintain the ritual field.

These special plants from the Underworld at the junction of the Negative Energy Plane have the effect of locking in negative energy.

They help to form a perfect closed loop of negative energy inside the cemetery.

This amount is about 6000 gold coins.

At first, Matthew was distressed for several days.

But when the ritual field was formed, his mentality was immediately reversed.

……

"Hint: You have successfully built the "Ceremonial Ground: Graveyard of the Undead".

-

Graveyard Master: You can place a signpost to recruit elite undead.

-

Tombstone Making: Tombstones made by hand in the cemetery will get 150% of the original effect

……

The ceremonial arena grants your graveyard owner the unique abilities "Grievances" and "Forced Capture".

Grievances: If you unleash this ability on an outsider, they will be haunted with the resentment of all the undead in the graveyard, and they will have to suffer a judgment of will every second.

If the decision is successful, the enemy will immediately be scattered;

If the decision fails, one point of the enemy's health is forcibly deducted.

Forced Capture: You can invoke the negative energy of the entire cemetery and perform an endless number of negative energy tentacle strikes on the target until they are completely captured."

……

These two abilities come out as soon as they come out.

Meaning Matthew is almost invincible in the cemetery!

Combined with his own powerful strength and domain power, even a legendary creature will have to be slapped in the face!

That's the power of the ceremonial field.

Besides.

The Graveyard and Ritual Arena are standard for summoning many mid-level undead units.

It's also a sign that Matthew can finally start making the Black Samurai of his heart!

……

The next morning.

Matthew, who had been excited all night, and Peggy, who had been distressed all night, both returned to the house in Rolling Rock Town listlessly.

Open the door.

Peggy plunged headlong into the kitchen.

Matthew had wanted to dive into the couch and lie down for a while.

And yet at this very moment.

He suddenly noticed that there were several more letters in his mailbox!

Matthew went to fetch the letter and found that there were three letters, each from different locations.

The first letter does not indicate the mailing address, but it has an albatross feather on it, which naturally comes from Lorain in Deep Blue Harbor.

The second letter is clearly marked as coming from the Jade Court and is supposed to have been written by Beanna.

The address of the third letter is strange, a place called "The Blackstone Mine".

The sender's name is actually Lumière!

Matthew's gaze swirled back and forth between the three letters.

Three seconds later.

He folded the three letters in the order in which they were to be opened.

The letter from the Jade Court was pressed to the bottom by him.

In the middle is Loren's.

Matthew returned to his room.

I opened the top envelope and read it carefully.
