……

The first thing Matthew did when he returned to the demon camp was to do it.

It is to erect a teleportation stone tablet at the entrance of the camp.

The corpses of demons are also excellent materials.

Judging by the tech tree that Sturluk Industries has opened, their hearts can at least be used to generate electricity.

Little Parton also verifies this.

At present, Ma Correction is vigorously promoting the installation of electrical circuits and electric lights on all floors of the cemetery.

Other supplies are not in short supply.

Only the energy aspect is slightly lacking, and now it can just make up for this piece.

Secondly.

The remaining bodies of the demons also have a chance to be transformed into the undead through necromancy summoning or necromancy transformation pools.

It's just that the success rate of the universal Necromantic Summoning is a bit low.

It is necessary to master the corresponding Abyssal Necromancy Summoning Technique.

This is very sophisticated knowledge.

Matthew, a necromancer from a wild background, naturally failed to master it.

But he plans to learn as he practics.

It's rare to have so many demon corpses to practice, and it's too much to say if you don't study the Abyss Necromancy Summoning Technique.

As for specific sources of knowledge.

Isabel's arsenal of spells has it all.

In this regard.

Matthew really didn't have too much to worry about.

He then began to search the entire camp with Peggy's help.

The area of the demon camp is huge.

There's not a lot of stuff in there.

This probably has something to do with the demons' relatively chaotic way of doing things.

Except for most of the barracks that have been lifted off their roofs, all that remains are some simple daily living utensils.

While taking stock of these things, Matthew opened his eyes a little.

"The demons actually use the toilet too? And still stuck in the era of aqua toilets? This aspect is really inferior to the devil's civilization in purgatory......"

"What is this relatively soft ball of sand? How is there a hole in every litter ball? Hey...... It feels weird good. ”

"What is this sparkling ointment? Why is there this ointment in every demon barracks? ”

Peggy yelled beside her.

Matthew, however, gradually took on a strange look.

He doesn't know enough about the abyss, and he doesn't really understand what most of the props are used for.

But he knew it well.

The aura of this thing is too similar to Rhaegar's sword oil......

So he coughed lightly:

"Presumably the demons used it to smear weapons, which can increase sharpness."

And then in Peggy's sudden realization.

Matthew took away all the ointment.

In addition to Tu Yile's daily living items, the things Matthew collected the most were bundles of "Abyss Candles".

The "Abyss Candle" is a good thing.

You must know that the brilliance emitted by ordinary candles cannot be illuminated in the abyss.

This has to do with the fact that the Mother Abyss has a powerful shadow realm.

Only the Abyssal Candle can show the way for travelers in the Abyss.

And other than that.

The aura of light emitted by the Abyssal Candle can even scare off some weak demons to a certain extent.

It can also play a certain role in dispelling fog when the fog is thick.

The demons have survived in the abyss for a long time.

Their bodies have long since adapted to the harsh environment of the abyss.

As a result, most of the Abyssal Candles are made by demons to exchange with other races.

This belongs to the hard currency of the abyss and the surrounding area to some extent.

Matthew took an inventory.

A total of 46 bundles of Abyssal Candles were found in the camp, a total of 276 candles, and according to what he learned from ancient books, these candles could buy a small town on some plane of the Bottomless Abyss.

Of course, you can buy the town of the abyss, but you also have the ability to defend it.

And with the exception of the Abyss Candle.

Another kind of hard currency that is more widespread in the camps is there.

His name is "Da Jin Yuan".

This is the currency of the Abyss and can be circulated among most demon races.

Small gold compared to the Alliance.

The large gold dollar has more than five times the gold content of the small gold coin.

But the purchasing power of both is difficult to measure.

After all, the little gold coin has the credit of the alliance as an endorsement behind it, and the productivity of the alliance and human society is absolutely demonic-

The regional exception for Sturluk's industrial involvement.

Matthew collected a total of more than 500 large gold dollars, which can be regarded as a small gain.

Outside of the currency.

Matthew also found some armor suitable for demons to wear, which was of poor texture and was used to fool demons at first glance.

But having armor is definitely stronger than not having armor.

If these demons had worn these armors before and during the battle, Matthew might have had to work a little harder.

It's a pity that this batch of goods seems to have just arrived at the camp.

The demons don't have time to dress.

This made Matthew take advantage of a loophole.

Matthew liked this batch of armor quite a lot, and immediately let the coolie zombies who came from the teleportation tombstone carry it back.

With this batch of armor.

At least we can arm the patrol first!

In addition, there are two special items.

They were all found by Matthew in the most central tent, the gymnastics mask and Eisner's horn.

……

"Gymnastic Mask (Strange Thing): When you wear it, you will master the basic abilities that most circus employees possess -

Gymnastics +50;

Yoga +20;

+20 for taming animals;

Martial Arts (for show) +20

Insight: You've learned the history of this mask through your keen perceptions—

The demon lord Eisner was so fond of watching gymnastics performances that he had someone create the mask.

Behind this item is the blood and souls of fifty gymnasts.

And every humanoid creature who wears this mask and performs gymnastics for Eisner will not be able to consistently output a gymnastics performance that makes Eisner feel new.

Then soon he will be part of the mask until the next wretched worm comes."

……

"Eisner's Horn: Cavalry Demon Order.

Anyone with Demon Bloodline or Lord Eisner Token blows this horn to summon a troop of Cavalry Demons from the Abyssal Rift to their advantage.

Warning, the Cavalry Demon is not necessarily loyal to the owner of the Horn, unless he can show convincing strength!

Alternative Uses: When used in conjunction with Shiny Ointment, you can get a higher charisma blessing when competing with other male demons for the right to mate with the opposite sex.

It is used by applying ointment to the horn.

Then the horn is mounted on its own native horn to make it look more majestic.

Knowledge (Abyss): You have learned that male demons have a custom of applying ointment to their native horns to make them shiny and thus attract the opposite sex."

……

These two props are also difficult to describe.

The knowledge contained in the former speaks of the sins of the demon lord Eisner.

And the latter is not a simple summoning prop.

It's more like a pickle girl weapon in the abyss.

"So I misunderstood the demons?"

"Are these ointments really just used to add charm to the horns?"

Matthew was taken by surprise.

However, his attention soon refocused on the demon lord Eisner, who had a relationship with both items.

Obviously.

The demon camp here has an inseparable relationship with this demon lord.

It's just that Matthew didn't bump into him when he came in.

I don't know if it's just a unit under his name, or if he himself just happened to be out.

Matthew's gaze shifted elsewhere, and then he searched for a moment on the desk at the edge of the tent.

Soon.

He found a letter and a relatively scribbled record of the march.

The text is written in the Abyssal language.

Therefore, it is useful to be proficient in language and distinguish between words.

Matthew didn't struggle to translate these contents—

He quickly read through the letter.

The content in the letter is simple.

This is a letter from the demon lord Eisner to a subordinate named Shugi.

The former asked Xiuji to choose a suitable place in the Resting Wasteland to build a demon camp, and secretly cultivated the Abyssal Badland and Worm Pond here.

Matthew of the Abyssal Badlands has discovered several places.

These are lands that have been polluted by demons, and have taken on the nature of an abyss, which is very unfriendly to ordinary humanoids.

Since the soil of the Resting Wasteland has been sucked through the traces of the dead, it makes sense that the land is more homogeneous in terms of elemental layers, and it is easy to be transformed into abyssal bad soil.

But this is the result of looking at the problem from the perspective of a mage.

Eisner was aware of that.

It shows that he is not an ordinary demon lord, at least he has a little brain.

In the letter.

Eisner repeatedly emphasized that he should keep a low profile, not make a big show, and everything should be based on the cultivation of the bad land and the worm pool.

"Worm pool?"

Matthew pondered over and over the words peculiar to the abyssal language.

He didn't quite understand it.

But just then, Peggy's shouts came from outside the barracks.

Matthew followed.

In the northeast corner of the camp, the duo found a large area of dug potholes.

Those fine, irregular craters flowed with a pale green liquid.

And underneath this liquid is constantly bubbling upwards.

From time to time, some caterpillar-like creatures roll comfortably on the surface of the liquid.

Matthew just glanced at it and got goosebumps all over his body.

"What is this?"

Matthew glanced at the data bar, and the latter did not react, indicating that he had encountered something that was seriously beyond his knowledge and knowledge.

He just asked casually.

I didn't expect Peggy to really answer:

"Abyssal midges."

"When they grow up and parasitize, they become demons."

Matthew was slightly stunned:

"But wasn't the demon transformed from the 'Devil's Egg'?"

This is common knowledge in the abyss.

Peggy nodded:

"That's the most mainstream one, the abyss is different from purgatory, the devil's way of reproduction is relatively rigid and conservative, and the abyss is much more unrestrained."

"Demon eggs are the most common, but definitely not the only ones."

"In the few memories I can remember, demons have many ways to reproduce against the sky—

Some demons will mate with stones, and then their offspring will jump out of the stones;

Some demons will plant themselves in the green abyss matrix before they die, and then grow more little demons in the following year;

Some demons can even split themselves, becoming stronger every time they split!

comparatively.

The way abyssal midges breed demons is fairly conventional.

The bugs parasitize into the bodies of humanoids or other animals, and then take over their brains, transforming them into various demons.

The vast majority of them were the Brezu demons we had just killed.

This is also the lowest demon.

Generally speaking.

Abyssal midges can only produce these lowliest demons in batches.

If you want to cultivate the Great Demon, an advanced breed among the demons.

You'll have to go through the Devil's Egg and the special environment of Death Beach.

I seem to have seen the horrific scene of trillions of demon eggs hatching from little devils fighting each other on the beach of death.

They must feed on their other compatriots, get enough nutrients, and then be fully developed within seventeen or eighteen days, and eventually master the ability to fly off the beach of death.

Have you ever seen thousands of imps swinging their newborn wings with all their might, trying to fly from the bottom of a cliff to the safety of a rock face?

At that time, the whole beach of death resounded with the longing for life.

Those who survive will surely evolve into the Great Demon.

And the remaining little devils will be swallowed by the relentless abyss tsunami.

Until a few months later.

A new round of demonic eggs has been dropped on this stretch of sand.

Yes......

Those scenes seem so magnificent and sad now.

Hey?

Why do I have such strange memories?

Even if I used to be the angel of war of the sun god, I shouldn't be able to empathize with these scenes, right? ”

Peggy tapped her skull, a little confused.

Matthew gave her a deep look.

Seeing that her mental condition was still good, she didn't continue the topic, but chose to destroy all the worm ponds here with a fire!

Even the lowest Brezu Demon is a great trauma for the people of this land.

Matthew encounters nature and has to solve it easily.

After killing all the abyssal midges.

Matthew quickly read the march record again.

It didn't take long for Matthew to realize.

The demon general named Xiuji doesn't seem to have fully followed the instructions of the demon lord Eisner.

Far from keeping a low profile, he did not keep a low profile.

On the contrary, in the past month or so, he has frequently led troops out.

His main business was to plunder human villages and kill creatures everywhere.

One of the areas he visited the most was the southern part of the Resting Badlands.

A place called "White River Valley".

Matthew knew that this place, on the map, was a medium-sized town, probably bigger than Rolling Stone.

However, Shuji did not attack the "White River Valley".

He just circled around the White River Valley frantically, and of course there was a lot of burning, killing, and looting along the way.

After each time this ticket is finished.

Shuji will leave with the demons.

And at the back of the record of the trip to the White River Valley, Xiuji would deliberately type a strange character.

Matthew didn't make out the meaning of the character at first.

After a while.

He suddenly realized that this character had appeared on the spell talisman he had gotten from the Black Peacock!

He took out the spell amulet and looked at it.

Exactly the same!

"Odin's Tower!"

Matthew's mind came up with this term related to spell charms.

Obviously.

Every time this demon named Xiuji travels to the White River Valley to harass the Tower of Odin, he is inseparable!

Looks like.

Is the owner of the Tower of Odin having some personal grudge with the White River Valley, or something that he has taken a fancy to the White River Valley?

Matthew was a little curious.

He had inquired before, and the alliance did not have a mage tower called the Tower of Odin in the entire south, which indicated that the force was founded by a wild mage.

Considering that the Resting Badlands go south, there is indeed a large area of no man's land far from Apple Boulevard.

It was a huge swamp.

It is inhabited by a large number of poisons as well as some tribes of frogmen.

If the Tower of Odin does exist.

Then only possible in the depths of that swamp.

Why would a mage living in a swamp collude with demons to harass the White River Valley?

Matthew was full of doubts.

He doesn't like to be nosy, but since he has encountered it, and it is related to demons, reporting to the Silver Council is only the most basic operation.

If conditions permit.

He also didn't mind finding a suitable time to train the growing Death Fear Cemetery.

"Gotta go back and ask the black peacock......"

After spending a while emptying the demon camp.

Matthew burned the place to the ground.

Return to the oak grove.

Matthew finds Black Peacock to find out more about Odin's Tower.

However, I don't know if this guy actually asks three questions.

Facing Matthew's questioning.

The black peacock also seemed to be vibrant:

"My brain is used to hook up with my sister, how can I still hold the information of my previous place of residence?"

"I'm not like you humans who have so much spirituality."

"I'm just a peacock!"

Matthew was speechless.

In the Oak Realm, he could easily identify if a creature was lying.

Unfortunately.

What the black peacock said is true......

Matthew had no choice but to do it.

After reporting the information of the Tower of Odin suspected collusion with demons to the Silver Council.

This is the end of the matter.

The next few days.

While Matthew disposes of the corpses of demons, he frantically tests the Necromancy Technique!

Bing, Renysme, White Ghost Ali, Death Knight 47...... Even Ah Piao, who usually has no sense of existence, was pulled out by Matthew and combined!

As for the small boil, Eurolin and Vasnov.

There is no chance yet.

Matthew will definitely not let them go in the future.

And the experience he gained after pampering these little brothers is-

No Peggy Cool yet!

No way.

Matthew is combined with them, and his strength is at most the appearance of the peak of the fifth order, and he can't go any further.

Only fitting with Peggy is a real legend.

Although the experience of combining with different younger brothers has its own merits, for example, Bing's assassination ability and Renysme's archery skills make Matthew feel very useful.

But compared to the most powerful Peggy.

Throwing it together with them doesn't seem cost-effective.

Especially after Matthew discovered that every time he used the Necromancy Technique, he would consume a lot of energy, and sometimes he couldn't even slow down for two or three days.

He used it more cautiously.

Even Peggy took the initiative to come to the door and ask for a fit, but Matthew sternly refused.

The energy of the mage is important.

This is the key to staying focused, and Matthew doesn't want his energy to slip and become a confused person who makes frequent mistakes in casting spells.

Besides.

Matthew also gave a summary of the state after the Necromancy Fusion.

There are roughly three rules.

First, the form of the undead is more deeply influenced by the undead.

The combined necromantic creation is based on the undead, and Matthew, the master, is responsible for filling it with flesh and blood.

As a result, merging with skeletons will often result in half-blood skeletons.

Merge with zombies and you'll become a fat man.

And when combined with ghosts, it will have a more perfect appearance.

Second, necromantic creatures can inherit Matthew's authority and domain, but they cannot inherit most spells and abilities.

This is easy to understand.

They have all become necromantic creations, and the spells naturally cannot be cast calmly.

But the three great authorities of holiness, covenant, and fatherhood are present and ready to be invoked.

Domains are also similar to authority.

Article 3, the principle of equal sharing of damage and automatic disintegration.

The Necromantic Creature will distribute the damage evenly between Matthew and the Undead when it receives damage, and will automatically disintegrate when its health drops by 50%.

After the disintegration, neither Matthew nor the undead will be in good shape.

But the good news for Matthew is.

In his tests.

After disintegrating from the Necromantic Creation, he can seamlessly transition into the Wilderness Form.

This can take a big advantage in actual combat.

Of course.

Matthew also thought about whether he was a mage if he spent most of his time fighting as a necromantic creature or in his wilderness form.

The result of thinking is -

"Of course!"

"The core principle of a battlemage is to do whatever it takes."

"That's what Margaret taught me......"

Matthew was suddenly enlightened.

I can't help but think of Margaret.

I wonder how she is doing in Cyberdragon now after being reincarnated?

"Maybe we can find a time to go to Cyber Dragon to see her."

"I don't know what happened to Lumière's arm......"

Matthew silently added another stroke to the itinerary plan in his heart.

The next period of time.

From time to time, Matthew would plant trees on the moon, occasionally oversee the cemetery's development, and occasionally chat with the critters who spend the winter in the oak forest.

More.

I'm still trying to learn spells and make up for the basics.

Days like this go by quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it is the beginning of February.

The cold snap from the Helen Mountains brought another torrent of snow to Rolling Stone.

Fear in the cemetery, but warm as spring.

Especially the three basement floors.

The temperature here is still over 30 degrees, which is enough to keep most of the undead away.

Matthew stood at the mouth of the well in a single coat, looking at the newly baked batch of "Flame Burners" with satisfaction.

Not far away.

A group of creeper zombies are sweating new buildings.

From time to time, you can still hear the familiar and pleasant sound of the coolie mother's whip.

At present, the Well of the Flame Bearers has produced 12 "Flame Bearers" for Matthew.

The Flame Burner has two forms, one is extinguished and the other is blazing.

The appearance of the flame bearer in the extinguished state is between a zombie and a skeleton, but it is actually a charred corpse when it dies, and a piece of charred flesh will fall off as it walks.

And once it goes to a red-hot state.

Their bodies burned with an unquenchable flame, and they suddenly looked much more powerful.

In a red-hot state.

Flamecasters can use spells.

And their spell panels are excellent.

It has been observed that each Flame Burner is proficient in at least one type of fire-based spell, such as "Fireball", "Burst Fireball", "Beaded Fireball", "Pumpkin Fireball", "Sun Flame Burst......

Yes.

Although it is true that there are differences in the subdivision of the fireball technique mastered by different fire burial people.

But it's all fireballs.

In Matthew's eyes.

That's not a bad thing.

On the contrary, the Flame Burner's various fireball spells have a huge number of supermagic special effect bonuses.

These fireballs are much more powerful than those released by ordinary mages.

What made Matthew ecstatic the most was.

The effective distance of the fireball technique of the fireburer is generally between 60 and 80 meters.

This is a very perverted number!

To know.

Normal spells are valid between 18 and 25 meters!

Rays and missiles may be farther away.

But 30 meters is already a spell with a very long range!

At least below the legend.

Lacking the blessing of all kinds of super-magical abilities against the sky.

The 60-meter fireball range is equivalent to bullying primitives in a mage duel!

Not to mention that these fireballs also have a resonance effect.

Matthew estimated that 12 firemourners lined up and threw fireballs in the same direction could produce enough terrifying power to chill a young dragon!

This is going to be pulled into battle.

Who will be the enemy of the unity?

What excites Matthew even more is.

There are thousands of charred corpses in his hands!

The Well of the Flame Bearers is also still producing Flame Bearers.

"The fly in the ointment is that there hasn't been an elite or lord among the fireburers."

"If there are elite characters in charge of guiding, I'll go and get them some fire element crystal clusters, maybe I can further increase the range, and then simulate the effect of the legendary spell "Meteor Fire Shower"......"

Matthew thought to himself.

And except for the fireball technique.

One of the traits of the Flame Mourners is the mastery of the flames.

They can output a stable flame in a blazing state, but the length of time depends on the power.

If it is a flame with a high power output, then most of the fire mourners will stop eating after working for more than ten minutes.

And it will have to be slowed down for several days.

But if it is a smooth output that maintains low power.

The fire-mourners can work eight or nine hours a day!

And after a night's rest, you can still get up the next day!

After learning about this feature.

Matthew immediately contacted Ali, the White Ghost, and Myu Saqi, the mother of coolies.

He intends to open a forge factory on the third basement floor!

The basic employees of the factory are, of course, these lovely fire-mourners.

The Flame Undertaker, in conjunction with the Creeper Zombies, can make a preliminary modification of Matthew's newly captured armor.

After all, demon armor is certainly not suitable for zombies.

The amount of melt and recasting is huge.

Matthew can only come up with such a plan to arm his little brother for the time being.

"The fireburer can solve the problem of the flame."

"If you can recruit a group of blacksmiths."

"Maybe arming the entire cemetery with the undead to the teeth is no longer a dream......"

Matthew's heart flashed with such longing.

He walked around the third floor a few times, and was about to go to the fourth game to check on the progress of the Skeleton Prince Lirick.

But at this time.

The brute Sanger suddenly appeared in front of him.

The messenger brought Matthew two letters from the Jade Garden.

The two letters are from Ellen and Beanna, respectively.

Matthew knew it was their reply to the last letter they had written.

He hesitated.

First opened Beanna's letter.

However, a few seconds later.

Matthew's face changed drastically:

"What?!"

"The reason why the Wood Elves secretly said that they wanted to deal with the traces of the dead by themselves was that the Elders planned to cooperate with an evil magician?!"

"Are these elves sick in the brain?"

"You still need to tie the bell to unlock the bell, and that's not how the person uses it......"

Matthew cursed for a moment in an extremely rare manner.

This news is too exciting and too for him.

Because Beanna revealed the name of the sorcerer in the letter.

His name is Lance.

From the Order of the Scourge.

It was the culprit who caused the Elf Queen to become pregnant, and the initiator of the scar of the dead!

Now.

He's back in the Jade Garden!

It has also been warmly embraced by some wood elves!
