256 The Twilight Watcher and Queen House
β¦β¦
"He didn't follow orders at all!"
The Mother of Coolies complained:
"At first, I thought he was just itching, but I didn't expect him to really lose oil and salt!"
"My whip on the body of the undead can weaken the soul fire of the opponent, and most of the undead can't withstand three or five strokes."
"But this guy is different, I can feel that he is obviously afraid of my whip, and in the process of distancing him a few times, I almost drained his soul, but he still did not bow to me!"
"If it was a cheap breed in the wild, I would have smoked it a long time ago, but considering that he is your private property after all, Lord Matthew, I specially came over to tell you, if you also think that this guy does not know whether to live or die, then I will immediately smoke him to death, so that he will not obstruct your eyes!"
Not afraid of zombies?
Matthew was immediately interested.
He stretched out his hand to signal the Mother of Coolies to stop pumping, and then walked a few steps, looking up and down at the lonely zombie.
This guy does have a bit of a taste of pride.
Facing Matthew's scrutinizing eyes.
He actually raised his chin slightly, with an expression of arrogance......
It was the first time Matthew had seen such a vivid expression on an undead other than Peggy.
If things are abnormal, there must be demons.
Matthew realizes that this zombie has some origins!
He sensed it for a moment, and then he spoke:
"He's not a zombie in the cemetery!"
This lone zombie doesn't have a cemetery contract on it, which means that this thing has been mixed into Matthew's team of donors in Cross City!
Is it intentional?
Or is it an unconscious move?
Matthew examined the zombie, who was not afraid to look at him, and a few seconds later, his left eyeball popped out because it was so tight.
The zombie was stunned for a moment.
Then he slowly bent down, picked up his eyeball from the ground, and then stretched out his stiff tongue and licked it until he had licked all the sand and gravel off his eyeball, and then he stuffed it back into his socket.
"Could it be the zombies that formed automatically from the disaster in the Cross City?"
"But the spirituality in him is obviously not very ......"
Matthew decided that the zombie must be unusual.
The last time is also at the level of a soldier.
"Come here!"
Matthew tries to use the necromancer's necropsy to communicate with the other party.
However, the other party remained motionless.
Considering that it is still in the Cross City, although there are not many people around, it is not a quiet place to do things.
Matthew wasn't going to continue the stalemate with the zombie.
"Send him back to the graveyard first!"
"Let Renysme be properly imprisoned!"
After Matthew gave the order, he planned to register the zombie on the stone tablet in the cemetery first, giving the other party a basic identity.
Who knows in the process.
Matthew's Necromantic Summoning Technique has failed!
β¦β¦
"Hint: The Lone Zombie has rejected your recruitment invitation!
Ling's Necromantic Summoning Spell is invalid!
Do you want to consume a contract slot instead and recruit Lone Zombies in the form of a contract?"
β¦β¦
Matthew almost ran out of breath.
Just you?
A LV2 zombie?
Even if you drag it before you die, all living beings are equal after you die.
He certainly didn't want to spend a contract slot to sign him.
"It's really not okay to find a group of people to take him away!"
"By the way, where's Peggy? Let him come and see this zombie ......"
Matthew thought.
The undead tried to recruit Lone High zombies in the name of the cemetery.
As a result, his recruitment invitation was thrown like a mud cow into the sea, and he never received a response.
Just when Matthew was about to overlord the bow.
Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded beside him:
"Matthew, I've found you!"
"Boss Lorain asked me to give this to you!"
Next to the gap in the wall.
A black cat jumped in with agility.
He jumped up to Matthew and let go of his mouth, and Matthew immediately bent down to pick up the painting.
"Eli? It's you? Are you alright? β
Matthew's face was overjoyed.
Then he asked:
"Loraine is here too? Where is he now? Can I meet him? β
Eli shook his head and said:
"Boss Loran probably doesn't want to see anyone now, his mood is a little manic, uh, probably because he met the person in the painting, don't you open it and take a look?"
Matthew gave Eli a surprise look and opened the painting.
When the person in the painting appears in front of Matthew's eyes.
He only felt the pores of his whole body shrink violently.
This is...... Isabel?
Matthew stared at the woman in the painting.
White-haired eyes, indifferent expressions, and beautiful faces...... This is, of course, a portrait of a teacher, yes.
Available in Matthew's perception.
This seems to be more than just a portrait.
And more like ......
A record of some kind of historical moment?
Matthew's heart moved.
The next second.
The woman in the painting seemed to come to life, and glanced at him lightly.
Just for a moment.
A mixture of pain, loneliness, pride, despair, madness...... and countless other elements of emotions poured into Matthew's brain.
His temples throbbed.
The eye sockets also became red and swollen instantly.
Good thing in a few seconds.
The uncomfortable feeling is gone.
Smack.
Matthew closed the painting with force.
In the process, the corners of his eyes couldn't help but drip one bean-sized tear after another.
Inside the body.
There is also a force that is inadvertently awakened!
β¦β¦
"Hint: You viewed a hand-me-down painting, Isabel of the Cross City, and your Will and associated Resistances were slightly increased;
Your realm resonates with the hand-me-down paintings.
You've gained Enlightenment in the Realm of Sorcery, and your mana has increased by 1/5!"
β¦β¦
Matthew's face suddenly looked shocked.
What kind of painting is this?
I actually increased my mana by 1/5 with a glance?
The person who looked at the painting was Loren.
Matthew didn't know whether to say Isabel or Loren was awesome.
And at the same moment.
It was at the moment when Matthew opened his picture.
An insignificant response also found its way into Matthew's spiritual world.
β¦β¦
"Hint: The Lone Zombie accepts your recruitment and becomes a part of the Graveyard!"
β¦β¦
"Huh? Was the recruitment successful? β
Matthew raised an eyebrow.
The zombie's reaction was a bit odd, he threw out the recruit early, only to get a response now.
It can't be that the latency is too high, right?
Judging from the performance of the other party's sharp eyeballs just now, it shouldn't be too slow to react.
Could it be because of this painting?
Matthew's heart moved, and he walked towards the lonely zombie with the scroll in hand, and this time, the latter finally lowered his proud head.
Matthew also noticed, though.
In front of Isabel's painting, all the undead reacted in a similar way, including the mother of coolies, Musesage, who looked terrified.
When Matthew approached.
She even fell to her knees, trembling all over, and even threw the whip aside!
comparatively.
The lonely zombie behaved decently!
"Let's go, you go back to the cemetery first!"
Matthew tucked the scroll behind his back and gave orders to the undead.
He reactivated the teleportation tombstone and told the Mother of Coolies to take the undead home first.
After all, the catastrophe has passed, and continuing to keep so many undead in the Cross City has the potential to cause panic.
As for this zombie, Matthew has already marked it with great emphasis.
I'll study it when he gets home.
After dealing with the affairs of the undead.
Matthew looked back at Eli:
"Why don't you change back to human form?"
The little black cat stuck out her tongue and answered the question:
"Who is that beautiful lady in the painting?"
He looked a little bit on the verge of moving.
Matthew immediately admonished:
"It's someone you can't inquire about."
For the Seven Holy Alliance, Isabel's identity is a very sensitive existence, and most people rarely mention her except for those who know the roots within the alliance.
As a student of Isabel.
Matthew is not unqualified to Eliko Isabel, but given Isabel's unique temper.
Matthew thinks it's better that the Earth Tiger still knows less!
The little black cat suddenly showed dissatisfaction:
"Matthew, why are you hiding like Boss Loraine?"
Matthew smiled helplessly:
"When both of us choose to hide and tuck, you should know that this is a ...... Very special women, if you want to fight her idea, I can only say that I respect her very much and hope you do it yourself. β
"But I'm still glad to see you alive here, I've been inquiring about your whereabouts lately, I thought I'd have to go and fight with the whale hunters after the matter in Cross City is over, but I didn't expect you to return safely, this is good news."
Eli's voice also revealed a hint of embarrassment:
"I'm sorry Matthew, I'm worried about you."
"It is true that I lost my hand due to paralysis and was captured by the Whale Hunter's Boss, but she also underestimated me, and I seized the opportunity to escape."
"Just on the way back to Cross City, I met Boss Loren who was in a daze, and then we met a woman, Boss Loren was reprimanded by the lady like a quail, and then I began to think about how to write the article with a sad face......
Eli's level of narration can only be described as average.
But it's better to be honest and detailed.
Just a few minutes.
Matthew had a general understanding of the experience of this guy for more than a month.
Sounds like ups and downs.
In fact, about three-quarters of the time spent in the Whale Hunter organization as a prisoner for more than a month.
Matthew looked at the size of the little black cat.
It looks like I'm a little fatter!
"Looks like the whalers treat their captives pretty well?"
Matthew teased.
Eli thought for a moment and replied earnestly:
"Queen House isn't particularly bad, she's just a little crazy - not really crazy, as I understand it, she's just looking for the treasures left behind by her clan, and it's about their journey back to their homeland, so some of their actions seem a little aggressive."
"She's actually quite good, and she's pretty big - no, she's quite generous, I've offended her several times, and she hasn't punished me much, anyway, I think the whalers' attack on Cross City was a misunderstanding, and when I return to the Underground Sanctuary and meet the two Great Druids, maybe I'll be able to solve the misunderstanding between the Earth Society and the Whale Hunter Organization!"
Matthew's expression looked a little weird.
He had just wanted to ask Eli more about the Whale Hunters.
But at this time.
The painting he was holding behind his back with both hands actually burned automatically!
It's strange to say.
Obviously, the paintings spontaneously combusted without wind, but when Matthew touched these flames, he did not feel the slightest temperature.
He wasn't burned at all!
Bang la la
A fresh breeze blew.
In the blink of an eye.
Isabel's hand-me-down paintings burned to ashes.
Some of the ashes fell from Matthew's fingertips.
He couldn't help but gather more of the ashes with his hands.
Right now.
A small flame jumped from the ashes.
Followed by.
Matthew saw an extremely miniature statue in the ashes!
The statue was made of black and white.
Long hair as white as a waterfall.
It was as if it was pitch black with blood clotted.
Delicate and moving faces.
An extremely calm expression.
Matthew's face was stunned-
Is this a figure of Isabel?
He glanced at the data bar.
It's all about question marks!
β¦β¦
"Hint: You got the statue of the Dusk Watcher in the ashes!
Twilight Watcher "Isabel" (??? οΌοΌοΌοΌοΌγ
β¦β¦
"When Lorain gave you this painting, did he explain anything else?"
Matthew placed the miniature statue in the palm of his hand and looked at it.
He didn't even dare to touch it.
Otherwise, there is always a sense of blasphemy.
"No, he just said that I must hand it over to you and let you take care of it, by the way, he also said a joke before parting."
Eli replied honestly.
"What joke?"
Matthew asked.
He said that many people worry about the end of the world when they encounter a disaster, but is it actually possible that we are already in the end of the world, but we are too small to be aware of it?"
Eli recalled:
"That's what he should have said, when he said these things, he was kind of like talking to himself, and a little bit like talking to me, I asked a few words, and he said that he was annoyed, let me get out, and I left."
Is that so?
Matthew's face was groaning.
He realized that Isabel must have reached some kind of tacit agreement with Loraine.
Otherwise, with Isabel's ability and temper.
This heirloom painting has never had a chance to appear.
As for what the statue turned into after it burned out, it turned into something.
I can only wait until I meet Luo Lan to ask.
Matthew put things away properly.
Then he looked at Eli again:
"So, the leader of the Whale Hunter Order punished you by using psionic energy to stabilize your wilderness form?"
Eli nodded honestly.
Matthew bent down and gently picked him up, then walked to the side:
"It's okay, I know a home remedy that can solve this psionic command."
His steps are fast.
As he spoke, he came to a stinking ditch.
"Wait!"
Without waiting for Eli to speak, he struggled.
Matthew calmly pressed the little black cat into the ditch:
"Bear with me!"
"Soon her psionic commands will be gone!"
Eli struggled in the ditch for a moment, then shook his fur with all his might.
The prescient Matthew dodged quickly, calmly avoiding the water droplets in the sky.
"This kind of home remedy is still Luo Lan has already tried, and it doesn't work at all!"
The little black cat howled frantically.
Can be a second.
A sudden flash of blue light flashed across its body.
Followed by.
Eli sighed, and the black cat form was instantly lifted, and he quickly turned into a tall young man!
"It really works?"
Eli glared:
"Is it because the moat that Boss Loren took me to wasn't dirty enough?"
Matthew just wanted to keep joking.
Can be a second.
He jerked around and looked behind a small door by the gutter.
"Probably."
"There's also a possibility that the not-so-bad lady you spoke of has come to us."
Matthew calmly watched in that direction.
The next second.
A woman dressed in tight-fitting soft armor, with a pitch-black blindfold over her eyes, and a large snow-white patch at the collar appeared in front of them.
"Your perception is acute, tree mage."
There was an elusive smile in the woman's voice:
"I've heard some of your legends, and you seem to be famous in the South."
"Originally, I just wanted to talk to you about something, but after we met, I changed my mind."
"Now that I have a cat, I still lack a dog."
"From now on, you're just as much of my trophy as that kitten!"
Between words.
She pointed her index finger lightly at Eli, who flashed blue light.
Rub it off.
Eli has once again become a powerless little black cat!
β¦β¦
"Warning: You have encountered the Queen of the Giza and the leader of the Whaler Order, Haus (LV23/Heroic/Psionic weakened)
Psionic Weakening (Knowledge-Psionic Energy): As Giza people who control psionic energy, when they walk in the main material realm, their strength is affected by the psionic tide, and the current psionic tide is at a low level, so House's strength is weakened to around LV20."
β¦β¦
"Quasi-legendary? That's fine. β
Matthew secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The psionic knowledge he had collected from the astral ruins before came in handy at this moment.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to see the depths of Queen House at all!
Matthew took a look.
Except for the primordial form, which is a psionic command.
Eli also has a very shallow psionic command on him: slavery.
This means that he can't resist the other party's orders at all!
"Matthew, run!"
The little black cat barked anxiously:
"Her strength is very strange, after I lost the protection of the Earth Spirit, I have no way to resist at all!"
Matthew, however, behaved calmly.
He quickly pulled out a wet tentacle from his magic bag and the humble alarm clock.
And it's in the process.
The Queen's psionic command from the Giza has already hit Matthew's body!
"Psionic Command: Slavery"!
When that terrible blue light hit Matthew.
He couldn't help but feel a sense of surrender in his heart.
But this feeling only lasted a thousandth of a second.
Followed by.
From the two items in his hand, a gentle force supported his will to resist.
In the blink of an eye.
Queen House's psionic command is gone!
"What are you?"
House was surprised:
"Is it divinity, how is it possible? How can you possibly have two ......"
The voice did not fall.
Matthew's counterattack has arrived!
He tapped his magic bag with his right hand, and then the whole person turned into a moon bear and ran straight towards House!
The Moon Bear is fast.
The distance between the two sides has been pulled to the nearest in an instant!
"Trying to use the Wilderness Form to deal with it? Don't you know that psionic energy is the best way to overcome nature? β
House, who had just looked shocked, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this scene.
She took a half step back.
Activate a new psionic command, "The Way Backtrack"!
It's a command that allows the enemy to roll back wherever they came from.
If it is possible for Matthew to be exempt from this directive with two divinities in his hands.
Then now he is under the wilderness form, and he is being commanded by psionic energy to die, and there is absolutely no possibility of turning the tables!
But at this point.
A shadow suddenly flew behind Queen House.
Followed by.
A terrible howl rang in her earsβ
"Ahββ!h
Matthew's pre-released ghost Ah Piao arrived in time.
When the latter's ability to "cry for life" resounded in this space.
Queen House's psionic command collapsed suddenly!
It's time to come.
Her heart suddenly became extremely tense.
She couldn't understand why the man in front of her knew so much about psionic powers!
Didn't it mean that the mages of the Seven Holy Alliances had never studied psionic energy at all?
Such thoughts quickly flashed through her mind.
Face the onslaught of ghosts.
She instinctively wanted to move her position, but the moon bear had already pounced on her violently.
Syllable!
Matthew slapped Queen House on the upper half of the body mercilessly.
This time I almost didn't shoot her straight apart!
That is to say, the people of Giza have been exposed to cosmic starlight radiation, and their physical fitness has long been mutated to be similar to the evil creatures of the astral realm.
Otherwise, she will be a mess of meat at this moment.
Rao is so.
Matthew also heard the sound of Queen House's shoulder blade breaking.
She was slapped to the ground.
Matthew went straight up.
Hold her firmly.
"Suck!"
He commanded.
Ah Piao did not hesitate, opened his mouth, and began to play the characteristics of ghosts, sucking the energy, physical strength and concentration of House!
"No, no, no......"
"Wait, I was wrong, I'm here to seriously negotiate a deal with you!"
The whole person was about to be crushed by Matthew.
That's when House remembered to beg for mercy.
It's a pity that it's too late.
Piao glanced at Matthew.
Matthew was steadfast in his words:
"Suck her dry!"
Ah Piao's eyes lit up, and he immediately launched with all his strength, and 8 minutes later, House kicked his legs, his mouth was crooked, his tongue hung outside, and saliva flowed all over the ground.
"Fainted?"
Matthew cautiously checked the other man's condition.
He knew that the psionic master couldn't guard against it, and for the sake of insurance, he had to let Ah Piao keep an eye on the other party all the time.
Speaking of which, it was also House's bad luck.
If she meets someone else, she will definitely be able to command with her powerful psionic energy.
But she may have met Matthew, who knows the most about psionic abilities among the non-legendary mages in the entire south!
Ecmond's psionic knowledge from the Divine Laboratory.
Matthew didn't leave a single one.
These essences from the Antu Empire are not comparable to the psionic knowledge possessed by the Gizas.
This also mentions three shortcomings, or restraints, that the Antu Empire found regarding psionic powers.
First, waves, powerful waves!
Any wave, in any form and with enough energy, is enough to interrupt psionic commands.
Among them, sound waves are the most common.
Matthew's own death blaster actually had a similar effect, but after all, it couldn't compare to the ghost's life-seeking cry.
Second, divinity!
The wielder of divinity has powerful immunity abilities, including but not limited to charm, illusion, fear, deception, psionic powers, and more.
This is one of the reasons why God is powerful.
Divinity in a sense implies the nature of the origin of the universe.
It can provide strong protection for the owner or owner.
Most psionic commands are control-type abilities.
Therefore, it is naturally restrained by the Divinity.
Third, ghosts.
In fact, just as mages are easily restrained by ghosts, psionic users also need to focus in order to release psionic commands.
Once sucked dry focused.
They can't do anything either.
Therefore, psionic users are also very taboo about monsters such as ghosts.
But in the actual process.
Psionic users also tend to develop a lot of methods to target ghosts, and the two sides actually restrain each other.
The reason why Matthew won so smoothly.
The main thing is that the three elements of the anti-psionic energy in his hands have been gathered.
And when Ah floated out.
He succeeded in using the Moon Bear transformation to completely attract House's attention.
As a sneak attack of Ah Piao, the foundation was successfully laid!
"Overall, a perfect fight."
Matthew secretly reviewed quickly in his mind.
Eli on the side was almost dumbfounded.
After Queen House lost consciousness, Eli's psionic command failed again, and he finally regained his freedom completely!
"Matthew, it's only been a while, and you've become so strange."
Eli looked at him with a complicated look in his eyes:
"I thought that the strength of you and me was also between the best, but I didn't expect you to be able to easily subdue her!"
"He is worthy of being hailed as a 'legendary mentor' by the will of nature!"
Legendary Mentor?
Matthew was slightly stunned.
Over there, Eli seemed to realize that he had slipped his mouth, and hurriedly changed the subject:
"Anyway, thank you Matthew, you helped me again and allowed me to regain my freedom."
"I was supposed to accompany you to deal with this lady, but I have been away from the Earth Society for too long, and I suddenly want to go back and see ...... Well, I'll leave Matthew first, and I'll come back to you when I'm done with the matter of forming an association in the earth. β
said.
He fled in some despair.
Matthew looked at the other person's back, revealing a pensive look.
"Will of Nature calls me a Legendary Mentor?"
"Could it be the secret Eli heard last time when he was on the rise?"
"But I don't have a legend myself, what kind of guide?"
He complained secretly.
Then he regained his human form, took Queen House's body, and walked out of the city.
Disaster relief ship.
In a dimly lit confinement cell.
A bucket of water was spilled.
House spins slowly.
In front of her stood Ah Piao, who had an ugly face like a ghost, and Matthew, who was handsome but had a very cold expression.
"I'm only going to give you one chance, and you must tell you all the secrets of your whaler organization in this operation."
Matthew said politely.
House looked quite tough, and sneered on the spot:
"There's no way I'm going to tell you!"
"You don't think a sneak attack will make me ......"
Bang!
A dull sound rang out.
House fell forward without saying a word.
The soldier standing behind him slowly put away a stick.
"I gave you a chance."
Matthew said to the unconscious House with a happy expression:
"Since the backbone is so hard, it can only be handed over to a professional to deal with......
Half an hour later.
Hessoshan Prison.
Warden's Office.
Matthew and Bing walked into it one after another, the latter carrying an unconscious woman on his shoulder.
See this scene.
Warden Alexander smiled happily:
"Or is it the same as last time?"
Matthew thought for a moment:
"I'll have to add a little heavier this time."
Alexander immediately showed a look of second understanding.
He expertly slapped a detailed project sheet in front of Matthew:
"Take your pick."
"Hessoshan can always give you the best service."
"But then again, do you remember the woman you trained last time?"
"She was captured by the blue dragon in the desert, and then somehow she actually became the blue dragon's spell advisor, and she was very vocal in the desert territory."
"But that blue dragon is not too stupid, after the news of your dragon slaying spread all over the south, he secretly went to investigate the origin of that woman, and after learning that it was related to you, he sent her back non-stop."
"I was going to contact you about what to do, I didn't want you to find the door yourself, so do you want to lock the two of them together?"
Alexander asked with an ambiguous look in his eyes.
