……

Carmela immediately walked around the stone pillar.

Then she made a red mark somewhere in the lower third of the column:

"Right here, straight in, about eighteen inches or so."

"Can your fossil be covered with mud?"

Loren made a gesture of relief:

"Don't say eighteen inches!"

"Even if it's twenty-eight inches, I can do it!"

As he spoke, he took the piccolo from his waist and put it to his lips.

Matthew was much more relaxed when he saw this.

Luo Lan said it lightly, but he didn't slack off because of this, but was quite serious.

Bard's spell can be achieved in a variety of ways.

But only the spells cast by the most skilled instruments are the strongest.

Since Loren took out the piccolo, it means that he will show twelve points of ability.

Tick Toot Toot Too

Sure enough, cheerful music sounded, and pale blue notes hit Carmela's mark with precision.

Under the influence of this music and magic.

The surface of the stone pillars, which had been extremely strong, was suddenly blown up like a pond.

Circles of ripples ripple from the center of the mark.

Tick tock.

The rocks in the surrounding area had turned into fluid, dripping down very slowly.

But with the efforts of Loraine.

The mud fell downward for a certain distance, and then was projected upwards in an extremely abnormal way, forming arcs in mid-air, and in a short period of time, the mud and the stone pillars formed a stable closed area.

"Quick."

Loren urged vaguely.

Matthew looked at Carmela, who suddenly walked away quickly:

"Go get it."

"I just noticed an item over there that has a vast ancient aura on it, and I need to check it out."

Matthew watched her leave.

After a few moments, he saw that Carmela had indeed grabbed something from the pile of treasure, and then he stepped aside to stare at it.

Matthew's expression was slightly weird.

Because if he read it right, Carmela was holding something made of gold...... Spittoon.

Obviously.

The so-called ancient atmosphere is just an excuse, she just needs a little personal time.

It's just that Carmela is still a little lost in her soul.

Matthew couldn't help but be more curious about what she was seeing.

It's just that the other party is reluctant to say, and Matthew is naturally inconvenient to ask more.

He glanced at the banshee next to him.

Brianta's condition is worse than Carmela's, I don't know if the brainwashing is too strong, she is now lying on the ground with her eyes rolled and her back, saliva still hanging from the corners of her mouth, and she looks like she has been played with dementia.

"I hope she can recover!"

Matthew froze, and under Loraine's urging gaze, he hurried to the dissolved stone pillar.

The pillar had been solidified by magic, so it could not be accessed using wall piercing or terrastilism.

Matthew tries to use the mage's hand in the mud.

However, as soon as he reached in, he felt a strong resistance, and there was an endless feeling of squeezing around him, and he squeezed the mage's hand out at once!

Poof!

Matthew shook off the limp mage's hand.

"It's so soft! Come on hard! ”

Lorain grinned.

Matthew then stretched out his right hand, but as soon as he put it in, he immediately pulled it out!

None of them.

The hand of balance contains a large amount of life energy and negative energy, this energy field is too strong, as soon as you enter, it will seriously squeeze the state of the mud, if you force it in, it is very likely to cause Luo Lan's fossil to become mud failure, and eventually destroy the entire stone pillar!

That's it.

The dungeon will fall into the astral plane, and the previous efforts will be in vain.

"I didn't expect it to be so troublesome to get something out of the mud......"

Matthew groaned and cast a third spell—

Estro's Claw!

The next second.

The soft tentacles silently pierced into the mire, arching inward with great silkiness.

Just once.

Insert at least a dozen inches!

"This one can be!"

Matthew's eyes lit up, and he controlled Estro's claws to move forward, and soon he touched something hard!

And at the moment of touch.

Matthew felt a hot pain!

As soon as he gritted his teeth, he immediately wrapped two tentacles around it.

The pain began to increase abruptly.

Matthew didn't grind either, and pulled hard in the pain-

Bang la la!

The muddy water splashed him all over.

Estro's claws seemed to have been burned by some kind of force, originally four tentacles, but now only two remained.

And Matthew was on the ground in front of him.

There is also an oval-shaped object wrapped in mud.

Matthew bent down to observe the object, which was arched in shape, with a slightly raised tip and a smooth drop on both sides, like a hemisphere with many small bumps.

There is a crack at the top of the object, and there are sharp protrusions on both sides of the crack, like a pair of tiny antennae, and there are countless spiral stripes on the antennae, giving it a mysterious feeling.

"This is the Crown of Sin?"

Lorraine also came over.

Matthew removed Estelo's claws, but he still felt a tingling pain in his left hand from time to time.

He understood that the source of the stinging and burns was the object.

"The crown of sin, the attribute is actually righteous!"

"And it's the ultimate justice, masculinity and heat!"

Matthew pinched the fingers of his left hand, and then he switched his right hand to a healing hand, barely able to pick up the hot crown.

"So the name of the item is likely to be a trap, whether it is a false rumor during the inheritance, or the stigmatization of future generations, many times you analyze the name of an item based on experience, and it is very likely to come to a completely wrong estimate."

Loren shrugged:

"The simplest example is myself, I am indeed known for my honesty in the circle of demigods, and only a very few people know of my vocation to this day."

Matthew was slightly stunned:

"So they really call you an honest demigod?"

Luo Lan smiled slightly:

"The loyalist, Loren, is below."

Matthew was speechless, but when he thought about it, Aindo's demigod circle was not large, and it was estimated that there were few people.

It's normal for Loren to be blinded for a while.

Matthew took the crown and looked at it carefully, and after only a few seconds of staring at each other, his eyes felt a little tingling.

It's like looking at the sun.

He could feel the energy in the crown that was hotter than the sun!

That energy......

As if it could destroy everything!

"That's why Barto only took the Holy Grail and not the crown in the first place."

"The Holy Grail left by Poole is indeed sinful, and it is very suitable for the bloodline of the devil, but the crown is different, it is an item with great righteous energy, and Barto could not control it, so he gave the troll prince the opportunity to control it, but unfortunately the latter was unlucky, and after all, he did not get the power in the crown."

Matthew opened his mouth to speculate:

"Perhaps because the Holy Grail is more famous, later generations subconsciously believe that the crown is also evil, hence the misinformation of the name."

"It's possible that the trolls thought it was these two items that killed their god Poole, and they were angry with the treasure, which they rightfully considered to be sinful."

"Even if he shines as brightly as the sun......"

Speaking of which.

Matthew couldn't help but feel a little emotional, he could feel the history and vicissitudes contained in the crown, and this feeling was melancholy.

"Do you want to see it?"

Matthew handed the crown to Loraine.

The latter immediately waved his hand:

"No need."

"I'm not interested in other men's dicks, and so are the gods."

Matthew's face looked surprised:

"The legend of the crown and the Holy Grail is probably just a conceptual reference, right?"

Lorraine smiled but said nothing.

After a while, he took out the Book of Hebrews and the quill:

"The truth is that I feel like this thing is at odds with me, and I'm going to get burned when I get it."

"Besides, I still have to write."

As he spoke, he squatted down to the side and began to write like flying.

Matthew had to delve into the crown on his own.

The next second.

He raised the crown flat in front of his face, his eyes staring at the front of the crown, and the tentacles of his spiritual power slowly touched the surface of the crown.

And yet in that moment.

An extremely irritable voice exploded in Matthew's ears:

"The world needs to be cleaned!"

"Look at those people, they have so many sins in them!"

"Only the scorching sun and the flood can wash away the filth of this world!"

The voice was extremely loud.

Matthew's ears were ringing.

Matthew almost took half a step back for this, and he asked calmly in his heart:

"Who are you?"

"Tenjin Poole!"

So said the irascible voice.

"No, you're not!"

Matthew calmly looked at the crown:

"You're just a piece of spirituality left over the crown, and there's a world of difference from the real god Poole."

The irascible voice roared:

"There are so many sins in you, I have put up with you for a long time!"

"Now you dare to be disrespectful to me, I will burn you!"

The voice did not fall.

A raging flame erupted on the surface of the crown.

Matthew, who had been prepared for a long time, quickly switched the healing hand to the pale hand!

Terrifying negative energy poured out, and the cold aura spread to the area around him.

In an instant, the flames on the surface of the crown were extinguished.

"You don't deserve me!"

"Take away your dirty hand of negative energy!"

The irascible voice continued to shout in Matthew's ears.

Matthew said coldly:

"Yes, I don't deserve it!"

"But my toilet should be worthy of you."

Crown Roar:

"You dare!?"

Matthew mercilessly threatened:

"If you continue to talk and can't talk properly, I'll throw you into a dung pit and seal you for a hundred years!"

The crown was silent for a few seconds.

Then he said in an unkind tone:

"I won't accept a necromancer's threat to me!"

Matthew didn't give the other party a chance to continue talking:

"If you can do what you say, then it's not a threat!"

The next second.

Matthew quickly opened the half-plane and stepped in.

He found a random place to dig a hole and threw the crown into it!

"Wait!"

The crown's tone was slightly flustered:

"I ...... I can temporarily retract my anger......"

Matthew walked away without looking back:

"But I can't get my anger back."

Syllable!

He casually threw a few pieces of bloodstained shroud into the pit, and put several pieces of extremely pure negative energy stones next to it.

Do it all.

Matthew directly shielded the Crown's roar.

"This thing is more troublesome than the Holy Grail......"

Matthew's brow furrowed.

The Holy Grail is just a temptation, a temptation, a depravity, like a femme fatale;

And the crown is like a complete flute, constantly forcing the bearer to do something that seems to him to be extremely righteous, but in the eyes of others it is incredible.

"Extreme justice, it's really hot."

Matthew brings in Peggy to guard the crown herself.

He himself came to the tidal flats at the edge of the half-plane.

Compared to last time.

There are a few more wooden crates.

However, just like last time, the wooden box was still empty.

The more Matthew looked at it, the more annoyed he became.

Suddenly.

He kicked a wooden box—

Cracking sound!

The wooden box was directly kicked and crushed.

Matthew felt refreshed, so he kicked all the wooden boxes on the beach to smash them one after another.

After doing all this.

His mood calmed down.

"No, my mood seems to be affected......"

Matthew rubbed his ass –

When he kicked the box just now, he used too much force and didn't catch it at once, and there seemed to be a slight strain on his hip.

It's not a big problem, though.

He glanced at the data bar.

……

"Hint: Under the influence of the Celestial Crown, your mood has become very irritable!

You have received a wisp of righteous power from the Celestial Crown!

You have mastered a new ability, the "Righteous Dagger"!

Righteous Dagger: You can throw a dagger at an enemy, and the target hit by the dagger will receive a burn effect containing blazing energy.

Lasts thirty seconds.

While burned, enemies will continue to reduce their focus.

In particular, when you throw the Righteous Dagger from behind an enemy, you will deal double the damage and burn duration!

Note: Accumulate more power of justice, and you will have the opportunity to step into the realm of justice and gain more related abilities!

Warning: The realm of justice has a strong sense of exclusivity, and failure to reconcile it could cause damage to your other realms!"

……

"Sure enough, it's the reason for the crown."

Matthew's heart moved, and he decisively opened the realm of temperance to soothe the remaining anger in his heart.

"I only had a brief contact with the crown and gained the ability from the realm of justice, what did that troll prince do in the first place?"

"Is it because I have mastered the short dagger of justice? If I'm good at other weapons, this ability may form characteristics that are suitable for other weapons......"

Matthew thought to himself.

Either way, the Crown of Justice is a supreme treasure from which Matthew can draw strength.

But extreme justice is too dazzling, and if there is no protective measure, you may be swallowed by this force.

The gratuitous irritability just now is a warning.

"Maybe I should learn some sealing."

Matthew calmed down completely.

The Demon Seal can restrain the Holy Grail of Sin, but not the Crown of Justice.

That's why he needs a new sealing spell.

However, this is not difficult for Matthew, in the realm of necromancy, there are good spells that defile justice!

When he left half outside, he was still in reverie:

"What if you put the crown and the chalice together?"

"Forget it, these two things are left over from the gods, and their own energy is very powerful, but they need to be developed to guide development, and it's better not to let them meet before I don't have a legend."

Return to the Hanging Island.

Matthew glanced back, and Loren was grabbing a quill, brushing and writing quickly.

You can guess from the strange smile that overflows his face from time to time.

He's certainly not serious about creating at this moment.

And Carmela on his side.

She was still in a daze, but what she was holding in her arms changed from a golden spittoon to a golden pony.

Is that a pony?

Matthew looked at the protrusions on the pony's back.

A little unsure.

The two legendary bosses have their own affairs, and Matthew has to take care of himself to sort out the loot.

Prince Philip's funerary goods are extraordinary.

A large pile of gems is piled together, as bright as the starry sky on a summer night, and it is priceless at first glance.

However, it was only when Matthew actually counted it that he found out.

"Fooled!"

"Prince Philip himself's funeral goods are far less valuable than his two brothers on the top two floors!"

Matthew's expression was quite complicated.

And the reason for this is that Philip's own funerary goods are mainly made of colorful amphiboles.

In the era of the Troll Empire.

Limited by the means of exploitation and the distribution of nature.

Amphibole is a magic stone rich in elemental energy is a very precious thing, and every amphibole is priceless, especially the red, blue, and yellow amphibole is extremely precious!

Prince Philip's burial goods contained a large number of red, yellow and blue amphiboles.

This may have been a symbol of wealth at the time.

But now.

Times are different.

The secret of artificial amphibole has been broken through the magic of the appendage, and Roderick's alchemy factory has long been able to mass-produce all kinds of high-end amphibolite.

Since then, the value of this thing has plummeted.

Matthew estimated that the amphibole stones here could be sold for 200,000 yuan together, which was already good luck.

"I heard that the artificial amphibole was researched by Suriel, and at first she held on to the source and refused to let it go.

Later, due to the large amount of amphibole entering the market, other mages imitated it, and more artificial amphibole appeared on the market.

It was only then that she teamed up with Roderick to set up the amphibole factory in the Northland......"

Matthew shook his head with a wry smile.

The final harvest of this trip was not as high as expected, and it was all Suriel's fault!

Of course, Prince Philip himself had problems.

If only he could be as honest as his brothers did, and keep some Adamantite Mithril or some other magic gem!

And except for the amphibole in one place.

Matthew also found some interesting items or props -

……

"Disciple Scroll*2 (By consuming this scroll, you will have the possibility to gain the approval of a random extraterritorial sect master, and after a series of tests, you will become his disciple.

And when you consume a scroll, you have an extraterritorial overlord by your side or you are under his gaze, you may become his disciple directly. ）」

"Instructor Spear (when a humanoid with strength greater than 14 and at least one arm grabs this spear for a week, he will become a "spear thrower")

"Transformation Charm (When you wear this Charm, you get a small increase in the effects of all spells and abilities in the Transformation Realm, in particular, after transformation you will gain a layer of Secret Magic Shield, which will automatically activate if and only if your Transformation form takes severe damage, immunity from that damage)"

……

"Tamiró's Transmog Ball (Every week, the Transmog Ball refreshes its transmog target.)

During this time, using the Transmog Sphere's Transmog ability, you will transmog into that target and inherit all the appearance and details of the opponent. ）」

"Unknown Legendary Scroll*3 (Your knowledge cannot determine the true contents of these three Legendary Scrolls, only Troll Blood can unlock how to use them)"

"The Mysteries of the Human Body in Tamiro (a book that explores the mysteries of the human body itself, using this book as a medium, you will have the possibility to master the realm of flesh and blood)"

……

Matthew didn't expect to find a disciple scroll here.

This thing is a rare thing, and only higher-ranking extraterritorial sect masters have the ability to make it themselves.

Previously, Isabel asked him to work part-time as an extraterritorial sect master, but there was only one disciple under his name, Leila.

And with this Disciple Scroll.

Matthew could continue to develop the profession and recruit more disciples for his own use.

The role of the Instructor's Spear and the Transformation Talisman is obvious.

The former can train an unlimited number of spearmen for Matthew, and although the production capacity is forty-eight a year, it must be regarded as a fortune with the accumulation of time.

Matthew plans to bring it back and let the zombies try it first, and if the zombies don't work, he will find another race.

And the latter can improve the effect of the transformation field, which is equivalent to adding a layer of life-saving magic shield in the wilderness form, which Matthew still likes quite a lot.

After the test is done without any problems.

He put it on the spot.

As for Tammyro's transmog ball, it's probably just fun.

Matthew took a look.

The current transmog target is "Rooster".

He could have made himself look like a rooster if he wanted to, but in reality he was still a human.

That's the effect of transmogrification.

Matthew estimated that although the illusion effect of this transmogrification ball could not reach the legendary realm, it would definitely be at the level of the fifth-order peak.

Thus.

This Tamiro must have been a powerful mage during his lifetime.

Matthew recalled.

It really made him find the origin of Tamiro in the tomb information-

"It turned out to be Prince Philip's wife."

Matthew suddenly realized.

The three remaining legendary scrolls, as well as the book, were also left behind by Tamiró.

The three scrolls were carefully placed by him.

Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, and the devil knows if there is a vicious curse attached to the scroll.

As for that book.

Matthew groaned and turned over the secret book of Tamiro's herbs that he had found earlier.

He stacked the two books on top of each other.

The evil force is even more obvious!

"Flesh, voodoo...... It's really not a good field. ”

Matthew was secretly vigilant.

He blessed himself with a protection against evil, and then reached out to open the two books.

However, his actions were not yet complete.

Luo Lan's voice came from the side:

"You'd better not touch those two books."

Matthew looked back, but saw that Loren was still chatting with Rosie, and the quill in his hand was even talking, but his head was raised to look at Matthew:

"It's okay to touch it, but you have to take protective measures."

"The protection measures I mean are at least high-level or even above protection against evil."

Matthew retracted his hand:

"You know Tamiró?"

Lorain shook his head:

"I don't know, but I can feel a sense of familiarity from those two books."

"Remember Ashitana?"

"The Twilight Creation that polluted Flynn's demigod personality?"

"Everything I did before in Zeshui City was to get rid of the brand of Asitana, and it was a hassle to be targeted by him!"

Matthew's heart moved.

Immediately, he looked at Ashitana on the watchlist and smiled bitterly:

"I think I've been targeted by Him."

"I was a little confused, but now I realize that it was these two books that He was targeting me."

Lorain put away the quill, got up and walked over:

"In that case, if you don't take a good look at these two books, you're losing money."

"Anyway, I already feel a lot of dusk creation's gaze on you, and one or two more won't hurt."

Matthew thought for a moment:

"So Prince Philip's wife, Tamiro, is actually a follower of the Twilight Creation Ashitana?"

Loren nodded:

"It's quite possible, but it's more likely that Tamiro is Ashitana himself!"

"Don't look at me with such a surprised gaze, the Creator of Twilight is a cold man, let alone a troll, even if it's a goblin, as long as they can achieve their goal, they will do it."

"Although the fall of the Troll Empire was dominated by Barto and the gods, other forces may not have taken the opportunity to take a piece of the pie."

"Ashitana is the more active and weaker of the Twilight creations, he only rules the flesh, voodoo, plague and other fields, and he loves to create clones to influence the human world.

It is said that at most times, Ashitana has more than a dozen incarnations walking in the main material realm at the same time.

Even more outrageous.

Since these avatars have no memory of each other, they have even fought with each other......"

Lorain freely explained the news of Asitana.

Matthew listened to them and quickly put them away.

These are two books that he must read.

But not now.

Now he is not ready to face the twilight creation, even if it is a spiritual imprint.

At the very least, you need to have some divinity!

The two of them spoke.

The Banshee Brianta woke up slowly.

It's just that her condition still looks very bad, her eyes are blank, and the saliva on her lips can't be stopped.

"I'm sorry, Matthew, I missed it."

Carmella came over with the golden pony in her arms:

"There has been a backlash in the brainwashing, and her memories have almost been washed away, but she knows very little about herself, if you are interested, just ask me."

Matthew nodded.

He didn't directly ask Carmela what she found during the brainwashing, but made a joke lightly:

"You've been holding these two gold artifacts just now, did you find something?"

Who knew that Carmela really nodded:

"There are discoveries."

"What?"

Matthew's face was full of curiosity.

Carmela stuffed the golden pony and the golden spittoon into Matthew's arms:

"Both of these things are gold-plated."

Matthew flipped through the items in his hand and sighed again.

Sure enough, it's not pure gold.

This means that earnings will drop by a small margin.

However, no matter how thin the mosquito's legs are, they are still meat, and in this mentality, Matthew still put away these two golden things.

He then collected Brianta, the Banshee, through a necromantic contract.

The latter was hit by brainwashing and became delirious.

It's easy to become Matthew's man.

……

"Hint: You've got a new summon, "Banshee of Death-Brianta"!

You command Brianta to open the realm of the grave she has at her disposal to you!

The command succeeded!

Brianta's loyalty drops to 60!

You annexed the Grave Realm of Brianta, and during this time, one of the spells you mastered resonated with the Grave Realm!

Your spell "Estro's Claw" has been upgraded to "Death's Touch" with the enhancement of the Grave Domain!

Compared to the original Estro's Claw, Death's Touch has the following additional effects -

-

The number of tentacles has been doubled, i.e. you will be able to get eight tentacles at the same time;

-

The dimension, length, and number of suction cups of tentacles have been doubled; -

The more age and the closer the lifespan to death, the higher the damage inflicted by the Grim Reaper's Touch, the higher the success rate of the death verdict; -

When you kill a unit that is over 100 years old, you may receive a number of gold coins from the storage items carried by the target unit!"

……

Death's Touch?

This spell effect boost is kind of interesting!

Matthew touched his chin, and he could feel the malice of the Grim Reaper's Touch towards the old man.

"Could it be that the Grim Reaper also likes to burst gold coins?"

That's what he just thought.

Suddenly there was a strong arcane wave in the sky above the island in the middle of the lake!

The three of them all felt something in their hearts and quickly looked over.

But a portal was quickly forming in that area.

Followed by.

Two graceful figures walked out of the portal.

Matthew is sharp-eyed.

That's two goblins!

One of them seems familiar!

……

"Hint: You've encountered the Goblin Warlock Shiro!

You have encountered the great fairy "Tasha" (the embodiment of the Midnight Queen)

Notes: The Midnight Queen has paid special attention to you."

……
