314 The Well of the Burners and the Skeletal Prince Lirick
β¦β¦
The lid of the coffin was slowly removed.
The torch illuminates everything in the coffin.
Seven or eight fearless drows were pulled by the coffin, their eyes looking in unison.
But a young man with clear eyebrows was looking at them suspiciously.
The other party said very politely:
"Please close the lid of the coffin, thank you."
"Push me back again, okay?"
The drows looked at each other, and two of the bold ones immediately stretched out their hands and dragged Eurolin out of the coffin!
Their movements are quite rough.
Eurolin stumbled and shouted:
"What are you doing?"
"Don't pull on my clothes so hard...... I'm just a dress! β
"I just want to get some sleep, by the way, what about Matthew? I'm going to talk to Matthew! β
The Drow looked at each other.
One of them asked:
"Who is Matthew?"
Eurolin was stunned for a moment:
"You don't know Matthew?"
Drow sneered:
"Why should I know?"
"What is your relationship with this cemetery? Why lie here? β
"Be honest!"
Eurolin froze there again.
He turned his head to look in the direction of the cemetery, but saw that in the space on the third floor of the cemetery, there was already a chaotic scene at this moment:
The last remaining skeletons and zombies are chased by a large number of kobolds and bear goblins.
The cemetery gate has been torn down.
The fence next to it was also trampled down, and the nearby Netherworld Robinia was ruthlessly trampled by many underground creatures!
"You're an intruder!"
Eurolin exclaimed.
The drow grabbed him by the collar impatiently:
"Nonsense!"
"Why else could I be here?"
"Damn, I haven't pulled this dress for a long time, I think it's a good product, come and help me hold him down, I'll take it off first!"
The rest of the drow immediately pressed on.
In the blink of an eye.
Eurolin was pinned to the ground by seven or eight drows!
He looked powerless.
This made the drows quite satisfied, but to their annoyance, for some reason, they couldn't get rid of the clothes on Eurolin!
And it's in the process.
One of the drows suddenly saw Eurolin's lips twitch slightly.
He leaned over at once, and as he listened, he asked:
"What are you talking about?"
Eurolin replied honestly:
"Oh, I'm chanting a fireball spell."
Drow laughed and said:
"In this case, you also focus on casting?"
"Then why don't you keep reading?"
Eurolin honestly said:
"Because it's over!"
Drow laughed even louder.
In his short life, he had never seen such a comical creature!
However, just as he was about to share the joke with the rest of his companions, he suddenly felt the air around him become hot.
Blazing firelight poured from all around them.
They feel as if they are in the middle of a heat wave.
That moment.
Everyone saw a bright light that they couldn't look at.
and a blazing fireball.
"......"
The fireball melted the drow's vocal cords and throats.
At the last moment of life.
They seemed to see it......
Sun.
β¦β¦
Ten minutes later.
The second floor of the cemetery.
Matthew listened to Ali's report with a calm face.
"The fall of the third basement? Fortunately, the third underground floor is currently in a state of undeveloped state, and only a small number of skeletons and zombies are active, so even if all of them are destroyed, the loss is not large. β
"All the grimaces sent out have not been heard from at all? That group of drow's counter-reconnaissance methods are so powerful? β
"The enemy is very calm, he obviously occupies the third layer, but he has not attacked the second layer for a long time, so it seems that it was premeditated."
After listening to Ali's summary.
Matthew was quick to draw various conclusions in his mind.
"Your previous decision was quite correct."
"But I'm back now, there's no need to be so nervous, I'll take someone down to have a look first!"
After all that is said.
He led the group to the entrance to the third floor.
"Remove the stones!"
Matthew commanded.
In order to prevent the enemies on the third floor from attacking, the entrance to the tunnel between the layers has long been blocked by the boulders in the stone yard, which is also a mechanism that Matthew deliberately left behind when designing the cemetery, so that if the cemetery is attacked one day, the layers can be effectively separated.
Sinwak immediately stepped forward to remove the stone.
"Zizizi!"
A large amount of white gas came out of it.
Matthew was taken aback by the rush of heatβthis kind of battle is not a monster like the Fire Demon, right?
But when he saw through the mist and saw the appearance of the third layer clearly, the surprise in his heart was magnified countless times!
charred corpses all over the ground;
The rock walls around the cave have been vitrified in large areas;
The further you go outside the cemetery, the higher the residual heat and the lower the density of corpses on the ground.
There are a lot of crystal clear vitrified crystals on the surface of the ground in that area.
The temperature is very high from afar!
"Burned the caves into glass houses......"
"What's going on here?"
Matthew waited at the entrance for a long time, until the heat was almost gone, and he drank two vials of flame resistance potion before taking someone inside to check it out.
There is not a single living mouth left on the third floor.
Here Matthew saw the bones of drow, kobolds, bears, goblins, and other creatures.
These bones were burned to a worse extent than those left behind by the Southern Mage Legion!
Matthew was on high alert.
He never realized why it was the way it was.
Until he suddenly noticed a huge crystal slab in his peripheral vision-
The crystal slab was unconventional and lay flat on the ground.
The surrounding area and exterior are covered with a gray slimy liquid.
There was still a glow in the liquid, and the temperature had not yet receded.
Matthew glanced at the nearby gap again.
It was also scorched by the extreme heat, turning into a resinous mass that almost stuck to a single piece.
"Eurolin!"
Matthew's mind couldn't help but pop up the name of the dead man's brother.
Until this moment.
That's what pops up on the data bar.
β¦β¦
"Hint: You perceive that this is the handiwork of your contract necromancer Eurolin, who unleashed a fireball spell here ten minutes ago......
β¦β¦
"Fireball?"
Matthew glanced around and couldn't help but touch his chin.
Eurolin and his pact are special.
Matthew couldn't get the news of him in a timely manner through contracts like ordinary summons, so Matthew was also a little worried about Eurolin's whereabouts.
But that fear soon dispelled.
Because on the ground not far from the cemetery, he saw a set of magical words that were glowing with fire:
β¦β¦
"Matthew, in order to ensure that my sleep is not disturbed, I plan to clean the underground space around here, and I will be back soon!
By the way, I'm sorry for breaking the coffin you prepared for me!
I really didn't mean to!
I'll do my best to make it up to you, and hopefully when I come back, I'll have a new coffin to sleep in!"
β¦β¦
"It's okay, come down and help!"
After basically figuring out what was going on, Matthew summoned more undead to work.
Mainly tidying up and cleaning.
The charred corpses formed by the invaders are innumerable.
If it is not processed for a long time.
There is a high probability that it will become a hidden danger.
While directing the work of the younger brothers, Matthew was lamented by the exaggeration of Eurolin's fireball technique.
He could feel that the third floor of the cemetery was filled with fire elementals.
The sticky overhead, the crevices flowing, the boiling ...... under the feet The ubiquitous enthusiasm almost changed the ecology of the third layer of the cemetery from the source!
This is definitely not something that ordinary fireball or even legendary fireball can do!
Matthew even suspects that if this place is given another three or five years, it will be difficult to restore it to its original state.
The feature layer here has been significantly changed.
A field of flames was formed.
It's just that this realm is not so domineering, and it is still friendly and blends with the original realm of the cemetery.
As a result, Matthew's ceremonial arena was only partially damaged.
Tinkering with it later will bring it back to life.
At least the second and first layers will not be affected.
But the third layer ......
"I'm afraid this place will not be suitable for the undead in the future."
Matthew smiled bitterly in his heart.
Why have you been so unlucky lately?
Suddenly, it intersects frequently with fire.
And these people who play with fire are all special allies......
Matthew didn't have much to say.
"You can find a way to set up a negative energy fountain here, which should be able to speed up the recovery of the ritual field, but the cost is a bit high."
Just as Matthew pondered.
He suddenly noticed a well in front of him that was blazing!
He had an impression of this well.
The first miners who worked in the Gold Digger Basin stayed.
After Matthew took over the place, he blocked the well a long time ago in order to prevent creatures from climbing up from the depths.
But now.
He could feel the drastic change in the well.
A wonderful force is pouring out of it.
Part of that power came from the Death Graveyard itself, and part of it was the blazing and violent breath of fire!
He stepped forward.
Take a closer look.
β¦β¦
"Hint: You've discovered a ritual arena that was formed by chance, the Funeral Well!
The Well of the Flame Burner: This is a forbidden place where the necromancer crosses with the flames.
You can throw 7~14 corpses that were burned to death by fire in the well.
After a week, there is a chance that these corpses will be transformed into a rare undead "Flame Burner" who can control the power of fire!
The Flame Burner is usually an elite caster, but may also be a ranged unit that throws a fire spear as its primary attack.
The initial level of the Flame Burner is LV12......"
β¦β¦
"And this kind of goodie?"
Matthew's eyes lit up instantly.
Before that, he had barely heard of the Necromantic Realm and Flame being able to combine together!
On the one hand, it is true that Matthew's basic skills are not solid enough.
On the other hand, the Flame Burial Immortal is indeed too rare.
"In this way, the scorched corpses left by the Southern Mage Legion are also very useful!"
Without saying a word, Matthew directly asked the coolie zombies to drag fourteen drowscorched corpses and fill them all into the Well of the Burners!
"In the future, this floor can be used as an activity area for the funeral fire!"
"It's a big deal to continue to open up the fourth layer, just add a special passage between the second and fourth layers!"
Matthew thought excitedly.
Flame is indeed a very scarce attribute for the undead, and most of the undead have a small amount of cold attribute, so the opposite flame becomes precious.
In Matthew's knowledge.
Only the Flame Knight and the Red Flame Nightmare, two undead creatures associated with Purgatory, are associated with fire.
The rest are all flame-dreaded creatures.
If we can mass-produce the undead who can master the flames, the strength of the Death Graveyard will definitely be even better!
However, there are hidden dangers in the well of the fire-mourners.
Matthew could tell that this thing was a makeshift ritual ground, and maybe one day the flame element wouldn't be enough.
If you need to operate and maintain it in the future.
It's going to take a bit of thought.
"It shouldn't be too difficult, you can go to the Alliance Mall to buy some materials needed for the flame-type ritual field, it's really not good, wait for Eurolin to come back and let him take care of the maintenance, just throw a few small fireballs into it occasionally."
Matthew thought to himself.
After finding out the situation on the third floor.
Matthew personally went to the fixed guard post on the periphery of the cemetery to inspect the situation.
He found that the Harpy troll was not alarmed.
This shows that the drow were drilled through a separate tunnel.
Considering that there was little movement in the process.
They must have a very good burrowing technique or some kind of creature.
It's a pity that there is no room left.
Matthew left the underground space after ordering Argus to increase the intensity of his patrols and readjust the distribution of outpost posts and spell traps.
The next few days.
Matthew travels back and forth between the cemetery and the Plateau on the clouds.
In order to move all the charred corpses to the cemetery, Matthew had to build a teleportation altar on the Upper Plateau.
It cost a lot of money.
The Teleportation Altar can only be used to teleport items, but it has a strong carrying capacity, the cost of a single teleport is lower after completion, and it can operate continuously 24 hours a day.
Three days down.
There were 1,200 more charred corpses in the cemetery.
These corpses were all members of the hunter clan during their lifetimes.
And on the battlefield left by the Southern Legion.
There are also many carcasses of wild beasts.
Matthew naturally won't let it go.
He was to send all the charred corpses to the third floor of the cemetery before the snow fell.
And in the process.
Matthew also had an idea.
He plans to build a cemetery branch on the Cloud Plateau with that teleportation altar as the center!
The thought arose.
It spread uncontrollably in his heart.
People say that there are three holes of cunning rabbits.
Ronan's roots in Jewel Bay did not prevent him from owning a quarter of Rolling Stone.
Although the environment of the cloud plateau is a little harsh, the resources are relatively abundant.
Merely.
The special nature of the primeval lands also makes it challenging to establish a presence in the area.
Matthew can't go back to the rocking people.
And as far as Matthew knows.
There is not a single Mage Tower in the entire primeval lands that is part of the Alliance.
This may have something to do with what they call the primeval covenant.
"You can start by building a small cemetery, covering it with spells and disguised as a shelter."
"Go back and ask the Silver Council if you can open a mining ...... here."
Matthew's mind unfolded.
The location of this place is also relatively superior.
To the southwest is the Watchman's Heights, to the south is the Garden of Fallen Leaves, to the east is the Yongge Forest, and to the north is the Helen Mountains.
Once you are able to establish yourself here.
He will have the opportunity to trade directly with the elves.
It can also be used as a springboard to get in touch with the merchants of the Northland.
Of course.
The lair of the monsters of the primeval lands is the place that Matthew has on his heart.
The so-called building near the water gets the moon first.
It's always right to live closer.
Between thoughts.
Matthew returns the body of the white dragon to the cemetery.
Then he ran back with him.
It's still not convenient enough to be outside, and if you want to deal with the corpse of the white dragon, it's better to be in the cemetery.
But just returned to the cemetery.
Matthew got a new message.
The negative energy road marker is in effect again.
And the immortal who came here this time was a skeleton with a proud personality!
He stood near the negative energy signpost.
It doesn't matter who comes to say hello.
Only when Matthew himself arrived.
The soul fire inside the skull only changed slightly.
"Give me a separate cemetery."
"I can give you back an army of skeletons, a real elite army!"
The skeleton's voice was hoarse.
Matthew glanced at the data bar.
