……

"I explained to you that it was a magic book, except that its shell resembled a ...... Nothing more. ”

Matthew said helplessly.

Bobo immediately showed a very well-behaved expression, she put her hands behind her back, and her body swayed from side to side:

"I know, I know ......"

Only a pair of eyes shimmered brightly.

It gives the feeling that everything is in plain sight.

Matthew rubbed his temples and was about to explain further, but Lumière, who was next to him, said firmly:

"I believe in you, Matthew."

"It must be a magic book."

When Bobo heard this, he immediately cast a questioning look at him.

Lumière said calmly:

"Mages always have something weird, and that makes sense."

"Just like you magicians, although you always tell us not to carry stereotypes, there is always a reason for the formation of every stereotype......

Bobo touched the antenna on his helmet:

"There's some truth to what you're saying."

Matthew took the opportunity to change the subject.

He looked at Lumière's silver hand and asked:

"How's your hand?"

Before Lumière could speak, Bobo replied first:

"Perfect!"

"Neural Manipulation Network Based on Mental Force Fitting!"

"Nearly twenty-five tons of press explosiveness!"

"Smooth switching between the four main modes!"

"Class Construct Life Bionic Evolution Unit!"

"And most importantly - it has a self-detonating module!"

"So it can only be described in one word, perfect!"

"Or ......"

“BUMP！”

When it comes to professional content, Bobo is immediately excited and eager to promote her products to people all over the world.

"Class construct life? Biomimetic evolution? ”

Matthew listened in a daze, but still caught some strange keywords.

Bobo nodded vigorously:

"That's right!"

"The raw material for this arm was removed from the remains of a mechanical life that died many years ago, but its flesh is still highly active."

"It's more of a mechanical parasite than a mechanical arm, but its presence is more beneficial to Lumière than it is negligible."

Mechanical life?

Matthew wasn't ignorant of this.

Hera in Hessoshan and Space Necrons in Sturuk Industries can be considered a type of mechanical life, and 177 is also half of it.

He did feel a sense of spirituality in Lumière's silver arm.

This does not exist in ordinary metal components or constructions.

This spirituality made the aura on Lumière's body mixed at the same time.

It also made him stronger.

Matthew looked at the arm carefully and asked casually:

"But with only twenty-five tons of explosive presses, it's not as strong as your original arm, right?"

Lumière nodded:

"It's probably only half of the original......

Matthew secretly sighed in his heart, this guy's original body was too perverted.

It can only be said that the land of the rainforest has given him a special template that is far beyond normal humans.

At the same time, you can also imagine the true strength of the Dreadnosaur Lord who has hit Lumière hard.

"But this arm is perfect in every way, except for its strength."

Lumière smiled from the bottom of his heart:

"It has four working modes, and now it is a normal mode, that is, a multifunctional mode that can handle all the demands of daily life."

The voice fell.

The silver arm made a sudden sound of gears turning.

In the blink of an eye.

A thick black tube appeared at the end of the wrist instead of the palm of the robotic arm!

"It's shooting mode."

Bobo interjected:

"The shooting mode currently supports the free switching of four weapons, and there are three additional blank weapon slots, my suggestion is to buy him a few magic wands that can quickly cast spells and insert them, so that this arm also has the ability to cast spells!"

"Now it's a sniper rifle, and there are four weapon modules: shotguns, firing rifles, and hand cannons."

"Coupled with the magic wand in the future, it will be enough to solve remote needs in most cases."

Bobo introduced as he asked Lumière to switch between various weapons.

Matthew's reading is also extremely novel.

It takes 4~6 seconds for this arm to switch between different modes, but it is much faster to switch weapons, only about 1.5 seconds, which is quite amazing.

And with the exception of the firing mode.

There is also a fighting mode and a capture mode.

"Theoretically, in dogfight, this arm is capable of mastering all weapons."

"But because the big guys don't have the money to buy algorithm chips, they only have experience with the basic version of ordinary weapons, which is enough in most cases."

"The capture mode is used to catch prey, this mode is relatively unpopular, and the staff of the Titan Laboratory only developed it according to the framework of the original mechanical life, and did not figure out its working principle and application scope, so he had to slowly explore it himself."

"On top of that, he has a third hand under his wrist that can be used for self-repairs!"

"Because of the addition of the Analogue Life Bionic Evolution Unit, all the power consumption of this arm relies on absorbing Lumière's physical strength, mental power, and magic power in the air."

"This means a very low cost of ownership!"

"It's 100 percent realistic...... Well, it may be a bit exaggerated, but 99%, no, 97% must be there! ”

Bobo swore by it.

Matthew nodded in response.

He tried to run his fingertips lightly over the silver hand.

It's in the process.

Where the fingertips touched, the surface of the originally hard arm suddenly rippled around like liquid.

"Uh, Matthew, it's a little itchy......"

Lumière whispered embarrassedly.

Bobo next to him showed a serious expression:

"Is it itchy to this extent?"

"It seems that the nerve sensitivity is set too high, which is not good, and a little pepper may be enough to paralyze your nerves in the short term."

said.

She didn't know where to move a small bench for Lumière to sit down.

Bobo himself pulled out a toolbox and used the tools to start tapping Lumière's arm.

"Is it itchy?"

"Hahahaha!"

"Still itchy?"

"Uh, did you touch me?"

"And now?"

"I don't feel anything......"

It took a long time for Bobo to put Lumière on his feet.

In the process, Matthew was able to get an up-close look at the arm.

He could feel the difference in this arm.

"This isn't the Arm of the Ao Neon we talked about before, is it?"

Matthew asked.

Bobo nodded:

"This arm comes from a project mothballed by Titan Laboratories many years ago, and it is an experimental life structure."

"Its name is 'The Hand of God.'"

Oh, God?

This is not the one that is widely used in the lingua franca of Aindor to refer to gods.

It's a very directional noun.

Matthew looked surprised.

"Haven't heard of it?"

Bobo smiled:

"Actually, I hadn't heard of it before, but when I asked the staff of the Titan Lab, I learned that the names they gave to items or items were all randomly taken from a very old Xenomorph book."

"Anyway, it's an unfamiliar word that no one has ever seen, so it will give people a sense of superiority?"

"Who knows? Maybe the word just meant Chinese cabbage in the original context......"

Matthew immediately became interested in the Xenomorph Book.

But I didn't wait for him to ask.

Bobo had already gleefully continued:

"It's also a big man's luck that many of the previously mothballed items have been dug up in this transfer operation."

"Some items have no transfer value and can only be sealed or destroyed on the spot."

"This Hand of God is one of the projects that will be sealed, it was originally developed for Titan technicians, but the strange mechanics who came to help from Cyberdragon found that normal people's bodies simply cannot withstand the request of the Hand of God, and only the most energetic beasts can withstand the physical exertion of the fusion period."

"At this time, Lumière came......"

Hear here.

Matthew couldn't help but glance at Lumière, and sure enough, he found traces of dark circles under his eyes.

"Because it's an experimental project, I don't need to pay, and because I'm doing it myself, even the labor costs are waived, and I just need to regularly feedback some user experience and data to the people in Titan Labs."

Bobo concluded.

Matthew had a sincere smile on his face:

"It was perfect."

Bobo nodded:

"But thanks to the mage named Vivien."

"Originally, Ms. Hawkins was still a little hesitant, because someone told her that she could put this arm directly on the miniature Titan, and after Ms. Vivien heard about it, she took the initiative to come over and say hello, and the ownership of this arm was settled."

"We didn't see Vivien's mage afterwards, but she should be your friend, right?"

Matthew was slightly stunned.

He nodded immediately, he and Vivian were only one-sided, the latter was Qin Wuyue's student, and it was estimated that he had brought personal affection by the way.

He inquired about the situation of the Death of the World.

It is known that the current World Death Force has been completely transferred to the surface of the moon.

The old site and laboratories of Cloud City will be mothballed.

Most of the troops and associated personnel will follow in Hawkins' footsteps, and apart from the change of name to Lunar Death and the transfer to the moon to work, everything else is not much different from before.

On the contrary, the capital budget is more adequate.

This makes the atmosphere inside the Moon's Death quite good.

Bobo himself is special.

Strictly speaking, she is not a member of the Moonfall, but a private cooperative.

Following Hawkins is only for the sake of love.

Hawkins has also extended a formal invitation to Bobo.

But Bobo refused.

She prefers a free-spirited way of working together.

"So you're willing to join my spell guild?"

Matthew asked with a smile.

Bobo said without hesitation:

"As long as there are no mandatory tasks!"

"I came across a mandatory task and it was easy to mess up ......"

Matthew nodded.

He asked Lumière again about his intentions.

Lumière thought for a moment and replied:

"Like Bobo, I intend to work with the Moonfall, either as a private person or as a private contractor."

"After installing this arm, I applied for the Titan Technician registration, and if the training passed, I would sign a mercenary contract with them and would fight for them at a specific time."

"Other than that, I'm free, and if my situation meets the requirements, of course I'm willing to join your guild."

This answer is not surprising.

Partnering with Moonfall is indeed a channel through which Lumière can exert his value to a greater extent.

Matthew's Spell Guild was originally a much looser organization.

The guild will not interfere with the daily life and work of its members.

"Welcome to my guild, then!"

Matthew smiled and led the two of them to the moonless woodland, and in a short time, there was a decent bronze badge in their hands.

It's the same as the Rhaegar three.

As soon as the two joined the guild, they were attracted by the novel interface and functions on the badge.

"What do you do in Room X? It's weird! ”

"And peer-to-peer communication?"

"Lumière, can you hear me?"

Bobo shouted at the bronze badge in his hand.

Lumière nodded.

Bobo's face is full of novelty:

"But I see that the communication module is not open?"

Lumière looked at her innocently:

"You're standing next to me, talking so loudly, of course I can hear you......"

Bobo's little face darkened.

But soon, the two of them were happy to study the functions of the spell guild again.

However, just a few minutes later.

The person who hurts the egg becomes the guild elf Sissy.

She frantically sent a private message to Matthew:

"Why is there so much coal and metal in the warehouse?"

"Who dropped the bomb?"

"And so many rainforest specimens and bloody pieces of flesh ......"

"Can you tell them not to stuff everything into the guild storehouse?"

"I'm tired of cleaning alone......"

At the end, he also sent a pitiful expression.

Matthew couldn't help that.

No way.

Who made the repository now the only special feature that the guild could offer to regular members?

The Shared Mage's Hand is also the most frequently used spell on a daily basis.

As you can imagine.

As the number of union members increases in the future, it will take a few more mages to come out.

Otherwise, it will definitely not be enough.

Matthew found an opportunity to open up the Moonhaze Glade to Bobo and Lumière, and told them to come out when they were almost finished.

He also entrusted the construction of the communication network to Bobo.

The latter patted his chest on the spot and said that it could be studied.

Matthew then left the woodland with peace of mind.

……

The next period of time.

Matthew's focus is still on planting trees.

With the help of the druids, the efficiency of planting trees has really increased dramatically.

The druids were not very appreciative of Matthew's drastic push for forest cover.

in other seasons.

This method of artificial reforestation may even be seen as a desecration of the will of nature.

But spring is different.

Spring is the season of rejuvenation, and during this time the druids will raise their hands and feet to approve of planting trees or multiplying, no matter how radical their ideas.

The Druids of the Earth Society were good at planting trees, and after spending time with the coolie zombies, the oak and pine forests expanded to the northeast at a speed visible to the naked eye every day.

If you have a bird's-eye view from the sky.

The scars of the dead in Rolling Rock have now become a shallow scar surrounded by umbrellas and forests.

Matthew estimated.

At present, 500 trees can be planted in one day, and the total goal of 3,500 trees can be completed in a week!

And 500 trees a day wasn't the limit for Matthew and the druids.

This is the limit of collecting seeds and giving birth to saplings.

And in the meantime.

Matthew also clearly explored the measurement method of others to assist in completing the task of planting trees-

As long as Matthew himself planted the most trees.

Then other druids would also be considered followers of Matthew.

Of course, the trees they planted will also be counted on Matthew!

"If they can join my spell guild, which is the former Moonlight Society, then they don't even need to meet the condition of "I plant the most trees" to enjoy the effect of planting trees +1+1......"

Matthew thought to himself.

It's a pity that the Earth Society has encountered some difficulties, and these druids have the idea of following Matthew for a while, but it is still impossible to let them change their doors now.

The meaning of the two great druids.

It is nothing more than the establishment of a branch of the Earth Society here in Matthew.

Matthew is not averse to this.

He has always been inclusive.

The arrival of these druids can also give units such as centaurs and sons of the forest a certain amount of excitement.

Let them work more attentively.

Of course it's a good thing for Matthew.

Plant trees during the day.

The evenings were spent by Matthew studying the Necronomicon.

He took the time to go to the Great Library and found out how to make the complete Necronomicon book.

It's not complicated on its own.

Matthew studied it for two or three days and then came up with a general idea.

However, when he tried to make a "roll call" at a lower level, he encountered a series of failures.

Fortunately, Matthew found and corrected two mistakes in time according to the tips from his experience.

Soon.

A day later, he got two hot roll calls!

Each of these two roll calls can be used to control 600 undead on its own.

Matthew immediately added the Flame Bearer and the Archer to two roll calls, to ease the pressure on the number of summons in the cemetery.

After that.

Matthew began experimenting with the Book of Necrons.

As a higher-level artifact, the Book of Necronomicon is of course much more difficult to make than the roll call.

But Matthew had the lessons Hux had to offer, and most of the problems he encountered along the way were answered.

Therefore, the process of making the Book of Dead Dead is much smoother than that of the roll call.

After consuming a Godhead shard.

Matthew managed to get his hands on a thick book of magic!

……

"Hint: You've made a Necronomicon successfully!

Necronomicon: Even a layman who gets this book can become a great necromancer.

-

Spell page (blank) (up to 10 necromancy spells constantly, 4 pages occupied by legendary spells) -

Summoning page (blank) (contracts can be signed with up to 6888 undead) -

Effect Page (Negative Energy Cabin/Dread Aura)

Negative Energy Hut: The undead who have signed a contract with the Necronomicon will open a safe hut in the gap in the negative energy plane, and you can usually place the undead in the hut and summon it when you need it.

Fear Aura: The undead who signed a contract with the Necronomicon will have their own fear aura effect;

And the moment the undead were summoned, the power of the fear aura was three times as powerful as usual.

……

Thanks to the accumulation of enough elements in the relevant field (building a spell guild and crafting a necromantic book), you have successfully entered the realm of "enchantment"!

In return for your involvement in the field, you will gain one of the following three abilities –

-

Mana Flow Horizon (your eyes become more sensitive to the aether, you can clearly see the direction of mana flow and the amount of convergence within a collective, and you can more easily perceive the border between the aether plane and the main matter realm) -

Gold Hand (Your finger has the ability to "turn stones into gold", the enchantment effect is entry-level, and lasts for 24 hours)

-

Mana Infusion (You can be like a mechanic and inject your mana directly into the objects around you in a simpler and cruder way!) ）」

……

Matthew read it again.

All three abilities are average.

The "gold hand" is the first to be eliminated, and it is not really a stone into gold, otherwise Matthew really wants to try it!

The "Mana Flow Horizon" is also quite chicken.

Matthew has a balanced perception and can even observe the flow of the aether at the elemental level, which is several times more nuanced than the angle of mana flow.

Therefore, he can only choose "Mana Infusion".

This ability is a necessary condition for becoming a strange mechanic, but Matthew didn't think about becoming a strange mechanic at all, so it's also half a chicken rib.

But things soon took a turn for the better.

……

"Hint: You've gained the ability 'Mana Infusion'!

Your new ability resonates with the Undead Realm, and when stirred by the Undead Realm, it will gain the following additional effects –

Mana Infusion & Undead: You can infuse your undead with their own mana, and in the process, the opponent has a very low chance of exploding (note: explosion does not mean death, most undead can still recover after exploding).

Imbued undead will likely gain random abilities or stat boosts.

The total number of infusions is different for each undead.

It depends on the strength of its soul fire.

With each infusion, there is a lower chance of slightly improving your concentration.

Currently perbutable objects –

-

Peggy (999 times) -

Eurolin (847 times) -

Philorius (541 times)

……」

……

Matthew looked at this ability with a complicated expression.

With the blessing of the undead realm, the mana infusion has become less frivolous.

But it seems to hurt a little?

But this thing seems to be able to replace the effect of the Sea Elf Meditation Method.

Focusing on this attribute is too crucial.

There's no reason for him to turn down any channel that boosts focus!

"It seems that I will have to buy more mana supplements in the future, and if there is nothing to do, I can infuse them with it, which is also a win-win situation."

"It's just that I'm a little tired."

Matthew thought to himself.

In addition to the abilities gained in the enchantment realm, the smooth production of the Necronomicon also greatly relieved Matthew's pressure on the number of summons.

He plans to make two or three copies for the time being.

The remaining Godhead Fragments are used as a backup, as they are a key ingredient for many space-related magic items.

This is the case with Alexander's drawings of the easy boat to Matthew.

That same evening.

The negative energy sign attracts a new group of guests to visit Matthew's cemetery.

The leader of this group of undead creatures is an elite "rapper".

The Rapper is a rare necromantic unit.

They usually have only upper and lower lips, teeth, and a fluctuating tongue.

They speak lingua franca and are very noisy, chattering most of the time.

No one likes to be neighbors with rappers.

Because their sound is enough to disturb the soul fire of the undead, and even affect the lifespan of ordinary undead.

But Matthew after communicating with that elite rapper named "The Silent One".

It was decided to give them a place to live in the cemetery.

It was a crypt in the corner of the second floor, and it was not usually visited.

Matthew planned to place a soundproof barrier around the perimeter of the crypt.

The Rapper is a type of undead with a fairly high territorial concept.

They don't leave their territory as easily as mud monsters.

If they can live in peace of mind and not disturb other people.

The Death Cemetery can still hold them.

Don't look at the rapper, it doesn't look useful.

This thing could be a killer of mages and psionics more extreme than ghosts!

The sounds made by the rapper have the effect of disrupting concentration.

Elite rappers are even more so.

They can repeat a melody or some magical repetition in your ear.

Less than half a minute.

These sounds can make a lasting impression on your brain.

And when you're chanting spells.

When you read it, you can't help but chant the melody of the rapper.

Spells are useless!

They are the natural predators of all spellcasters.

Those who encounter it are usually driven to extinction.

Or keep it in captivity like Matthew and keep it for him in the future.

After arranging a place for the rapper.

Bobo approached Matthew and proposed a solution for a communication network:

"We can build a base station on the moon, and if we don't have the money, we can rent the bands and stations of the moon's death."

"When the time comes, you can use moonlight as a medium to transmit signals to the entire plane - the disadvantage is nothing more than that the signal is poor during the day, and the signal is strong at night."

"I've researched, the guild's collection stone can be used as the main receiver, and the member badge can also absorb the moonlight well, and the guild's location is the half-plane of the moonlight goddess, which can naturally establish a two-way loop with the moon......"

"It's not perfect, but it has a lot of advantages, first of all, it's cheap......"

Hear here.

Matthew didn't hesitate to decide:

"That's it."

Bobo looked a little surprised:

"I haven't even said anything else."

Matthew shrugged:

"Cheapness is the biggest advantage."

"And I trust your vision and abilities."

"With the Lunar Fall's Chief Wizard oversight, there must be no problem with our communication network!"

"I only have one question right now—"

"When will the construction start?"

Bobo patted his chest:

"Right now!"

"I'm going to talk to Ms. Hawkins!"

Matthew thought for a moment and said:

"Tomorrow, noon or afternoon."

"I'll go with you."

On the Southern Mage Legion's side, Vivien, who is currently in charge of dealing with the Lunar Fall, is also the interim director of the Lunar Project.

Matthew was going to talk to her in person.

Before heading to the moon, though.

He had other things to do.

……

Early the next morning.

West of Riptide, Golden Scissors Tailor Shop.

As soon as Matthew came to the door, he saw a girl dressed as a rich daughter looking disappointed at the counter and said:

"Isn't Mr. Farion here today?"

In the tailor's shop.

A fairly handsome teenager replied politely:

"Yes, Miss Gavin, the teacher has been out for a long time lately."

"If you have a need for a made-to-wear garment, it could be next month, or even next month."

The girl, Gavin, turned away disappointed.

Before leaving.

She also glanced at Matthew.

There was a hint of surprise and curiosity in her eyes, but she was very reserved and didn't say anything.

Matthew didn't care about the rich daughter.

All his attention was focused on the young man with a smile on his lips in front of him.

As soon as the two met.

The latter bent down very respectfully, and his body was almost ninety degrees from the ground:

"Hello, sir, Mr. Farian is out on business, is there anything I can do to help you?"

Matthew lifted his eyelids.

He could feel a huge force surging wildly in his body.

Is that......

A twisted paternal authority!
