371 Behemoth: Arest
……
"Almost, that's it......"
With a creak, the wooden door of the hut was pushed open, and Angel Rose paced out panting, wrapped tightly around her robe.
She seemed to have experienced a violent exercise, her forehead was covered with sweat, her eyes were covered with a layer of mist, as a star spirit, her hair was tightly attached to her forehead, and her robe was wet in many places.
It's different from when I first went in.
When the rose came out, it had a jet-black collar around its neck.
Her expression was pained and distorted, and as she walked out of the room, her head hung down, as if she were deeply remorseful.
Matthew followed.
His face was full of pleasure and satisfaction.
Rose's mouth was still quite hard, and in order to make her speak obediently, Matthew had to take a small measure.
He wasn't really very good at punishment.
But the necromancer, even if he doesn't study it deliberately, has learned some torture methods under the influence of his ears and eyes-
For example, the collar on the neck of the rose is made of the cold iron of the negative energy plane, which contains a natural blasphemy power, which can play a good role in imprisoning the power of the star spirit.
After putting on the collar.
Rose changed from an angel to an ordinary person, and she couldn't even maintain the two pairs of light wings behind her.
The will to resist naturally and quickly collapses.
After that, Matthew made a little more of a ploy.
Rose surrendered completely, and she told Matthew everything she knew.
After listening to Rose's confession.
Matthew was also taken aback-
He didn't expect that the so-called Dragon God would actually be a crumbling grass platform team.
The five-colored dragon god Baruch was even weaker.
According to Rose.
Maybe in a few months, Baruch will be divided up by someone else with all his power, authority, and resources!
But he thought about it.
What Rose said is extremely credible!
Tianlun Palace was not monolithic, and the former Big Three had already been killed by two, and the remaining situation was naturally chaotic.
It's been a while since Baruch had an accident.
This period of time is enough for the other people in the Tianlun Palace to fall into the well.
"I'll just say it's strange that Baruch would take the initiative to jump out at this time and carry the banner of resistance to the alliance......"
"It turned out that it was set up by someone, and it became a cover for not going up or down!"
Matthew, who learned the truth, couldn't help but spin his brain.
"If Rose hadn't lied to me, then Baruch's own situation was precarious at the moment, and he had almost nothing but angels and the most loyal fanatics!"
Matthew is clear.
The astral realm is an extremely cruel place, and the dragon god who has lost his power is not a dragon god in the eyes of others, but a delicious meal!
And the act of destroying Tyrannosaurus Town on its own.
It could be the last straw that overwhelmed Baruch.
Baruch died.
The Dragon God Society is sure to be in chaos for a while.
While it may not be possible to change one's intentions, the short-term turmoil can also make those who want to claim the bounty hesitate.
After all, correspondingly, Matthew also showed strong and ruthless strength.
Anyone who wants to claim a bounty from the Dragon God Society to kill Matthew will have to weigh themselves, whether they have more powerful assassination abilities than the sorcerer Lance?
Once the assassination fails.
Will you be able to withstand the undead scourge under the command of the necromancer?
When these real problems are in front of them.
Those creatures who are good at seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages will surely find their way out.
After all.
Although they have become mortal enemies with the alliance, they can also choose to avoid the edge for the time being, instead of rushing to gnaw hard bones, which is undoubtedly looking for death!
"In this way, after defeating Tyrannosaurus Town, the purpose of my trip is at least half accomplished."
"Blitzkrieg is really a good tactic!"
Matthew orders Bing to take care of the roses.
Ride the Red Flame Nightmare to wander around the rest of Tyrannosaurus Town.
A place where the canopy of death shrouds.
The smell of negative energy is so strong that it is pleasant to the body and mind.
As far as Matthew's eyes could see.
A corpse was rising from the ground and staggering to join Matthew's team.
His team is constantly growing.
And like a snowball.
The rate at which the team is growing is becoming more and more exaggerated!
It's a heart-wrenching feeling.
Along with this process, Matthew could also feel the wisps of negative energy and mana pouring into his body.
These forces are strengthening his body, making it more adaptable to the undead scourge environment, and making him stronger.
This is a feedback from the undead natural disaster.
It is also the recognition of Matthew in this ceremonial field.
Matthew has no joy or sorrow about this.
He knew very well that the Scourge of the Dead was actually a terrifying, movable, and even potentially self-conscious ritual field!
The immortal enveloped by the canopy of death is often in the tens of thousands.
That's far more than a normal necromancer can control.
In fact.
Maintaining such a large team doesn't even require Matthew to put in extra focus.
Because the canopy of death itself bears this part of the concentration requirement.
Other words.
Matthew is not the true master of this army of the undead.
The canopy of death is.
He himself is more like an initial engine, as long as it is responsible for ignition and maintenance, this war machine from the negative energy plane will continue to move forward.
Until all living beings are destroyed!
Of course.
Historically, undead scourge has been able to completely break out of the necromancer's control once it reaches a certain scale.
Matthew knows this.
With his own ability, he can control about 100,000 undead people at most through the Death Canopy.
More than that.
It can get out of control at any moment!
To be on the safe side.
Matthew set a cordon on the figure of 80,000.
Once the number of undead in the canopy exceeds the cordon.
Matthew decided to transfer some of the undead to the Necronomicon.
I really can't make a few more Necronomicon books.
It's this year anyway.
War is possible anywhere.
As a war machine, the undead still have many unique advantages.
"You still can't play to the limit, you must completely end the undead disaster before you get close to the tipping point!"
Matthew had all kinds of plans in mind early on.
Including when to end the war of this raid.
He believes that only in this way can he better see the overall situation and get what he wants.
Otherwise, you may be confused by the immediate interests and become a slave of war!
Ultimately.
Humans are still quite short-sighted animals most of the time.
Matthew rode the Red Flame Nightmare and walked through the ruins of Tyrannosaurus Town.
He carried a lost lantern in his hand.
Along the way, many undead took the initiative to follow him.
There were also many spirits who had been summoned by him to burrow into the lanterns.
At present, the number of undead under the canopy of death is close to fifteen thousand-
That number could have doubled.
But because of Matthew's principles, he received all his souls in lanterns and prepared to send them to the underworld at a later date.
This can be regarded as a big gift for Viscount Fan.
Half an hour later.
Matthew arrives at a lookout in Tyrannosaurus Town in the East.
The terrain is high and far from the headquarters of Tyrannosaurus Town, so it is one of the last buildings to fall.
Guarding this place is a group of fierce dragon guards.
They were the most loyal subordinates of the lord Cossacks.
Matthew's troops encountered stubborn resistance as they attacked the area.
In the end, it was Xiao Boiling who led the Bone Dragon Legion to charge three times before it completely took this place.
The performance of this group of dragon soldiers is still quite impressive.
Especially when they are dying.
One by one, shouting the names of the Cossacks, they rushed to the evil army of the undead.
It could even be called tragic.
It's a pity.
It didn't take long for them to lie down, then get up again, becoming accomplices of the evil necromancer.
Inspired by their courage in life.
Matthew simply organized them into a squad with the undead Cossacks.
It's also a neat family.
"No wonder necromancer is always shouted and beaten by everyone, Matthew, your villain temperament has become more and more intense recently!"
For this scene, Peggy commented.
Matthew was noncommittal:
"For some people, as long as we are alive, we are natural villains in their eyes."
"In the context of everyone fighting for survival, talking about who the villain is meaningless except to snap their hats on each other, at best it is just to gain spiritual comfort."
Peggy shook her head after hearing this:
"I don't understand."
"Next time, try to summarize it in one sentence."
Matthew smiled dumbly.
The two of them stood high above the watchtower, and from this vantage point, they could clearly see the two roads extending from the lookout.
A road leads to the north, where is the City of the Night Angels.
Another road leads to the west, which is Mount Crescent.
Since the three towns were quite frequent in terms of trade, the two roads were well built.
Matthew if he wanted to push it flat.
No matter which force you choose, it will only take a day at most to achieve the effect of soldiers coming to the city!
Peggy asked curiously:
"Which direction to fight next?"
Matthew smiled calmly:
"None of them."
"Let's hold our troops for a few days."
"I'll summon Miao Saqi over in a while, and let her lead someone to make Tyrannosaurus Town into a cemetery complex of sufficient size!"
"You can first recruit some undead who can understand human speech, and prepare them to work."
Peggy shrugged:
"You're the boss, listen to you."
With that, he went to carry out Matthew's orders.
Matthew's thinking is clear, and strategically, his goal is to make a quick move and dry out the sampan plane in as short a period of time as possible.
But tactically, there was no need for him to show such intentions.
Previously, he chose to use Blitz to swallow Tyrannosaurus Town in order to quickly gain a foothold in the sampan plane, and at that time, no one expected Matthew to do this, and the sudden undead scourge could have a surprise effect.
But now it's different.
On the one hand, after storming Tyrannosaurus Town, all well-informed people knew that Matthew was coming-
A considerable number of the residents of Tyrannosaurus Town had escaped smoothly before, and the Death Canopy at that time was not enough to eat the entire Tyrannosaurus Town, and these people would ventilate the other two towns.
In this case, the enemy will definitely be prepared, and the effect of the surprise attack will be greatly weakened.
On the other hand, Matthew has now successfully taken a stronghold, and the snowball of the undead scourge has begun to roll.
The corpses in Tyrannosaurus Town were enough for him to digest for a week.
He can fight steadily without leaking any flaws, and have a head-to-head duel with the remaining enemies!
And he has another advantage in doing this-
It could make the other two towns suspicious.
Matthew knew that the sword that hung in the air was the most draining of people's minds, and after a long time, maybe they would also burn out, and when the time came, he might find more opportunities.
In addition to summoning Miao Zaqi and the creeper zombies to build a cemetery.
Matthew also did two things.
First, he used the power of the Death Canopy to transform a group of astral thunderbirds entrenched on the outskirts of Tyrannosaurus Town into Death Thunderbirds.
The Death Thunderbird inherited its ultra-high flight altitude and unparalleled high-altitude power.
Matthew divides the Thunderbirds into two groups and sends them to Crescent Mountain and the City of Night Angels to collect information.
It is true that the information gathered above the sky is one-sided and limited.
But it can also provide a little reference for Matthew's next decision-making.
Second, Matthew built a portal to the astral plane not far from the lookout of Tyrannosaurus Town!
For there is no permanent barrier.
Matthew didn't have much trouble setting up the teleportation array.
Soon.
A small scale of the Astral Gate was formed.
Matthew then asks several of the captives who have not been converted to the undead to leave, and tells them to release the message:
"The reason why the necromancer launched the Necromancy is only to crusade against the sorcerer Lance and his related personnel."
"Unrelated people in the remaining two cities can leave the sampan plane through this portal."
"The Astral Gate is only open for seven days, and this is also the last mercy of the necromancer."
Matthew deliberately didn't say what would happen in seven days.
But presumably, everyone will make up the scene of the undead natural disaster sweeping the entire plane on their own.
How much of a problem these gossips can cause to those two towns?
Matthew is also unknown.
But he did intend to let go of a small group of less relevant astral beings.
He even figured out the price of the ticket to the Astral Gate—
You can't let your efforts go away, can you?
……
Six hours later.
On the ruins of Tyrannosaurus Town, cemeteries have risen from the ground.
Matthew walked around and gave high recognition to Myosaqi's work.
The creeper zombies are getting more and more efficient.
Miao Saqi played a major role in this.
Even Matthew has to admit that although the mother of coolies asks for a high price, her business ability is really good!
Along with the increase in the number of cemeteries.
The power of the Death Canopy has also been further strengthened.
The land in the core area of Tyrannosaurus Town is being injected with more negative energy.
It won't be long.
This will turn into land similar in nature to Deathscorched Earth.
Matthew even saw the rudiments of negative energy crystals near several cemeteries.
This means that negative energy is further invading the sampan plane.
This transformation is irreversible.
If Matthew is really allowed to gain a foothold, then the other two towns may not be able to sleep well in the future.
"As long as you are steady, they are the ones who are in a hurry."
Matthew thought confidently.
And in the process of continuously transforming Tyrannosaurus Town.
Matthew's chest suddenly surged with a burst of heat.
He looked down.
It's actually the president's badge that has a reaction!
Matthew took off the bronze badge and let out a sigh of relief, then wiped it with his sleeve before fetching a magnifying glass to examine the text on it.
Two pieces of news came to you-
……
"Note: 'Loran' and Eli have officially joined your Spell Guild!
Guild Elf Xixi kindly reminds you that the guild communication network has been preliminarily built, limited by the cost of communication, each guild member can send messages ten times a day for free (including chat rooms and private chats), please refer to the "Communication Manual" for details......
……
This is the communication network?
Matthew said in his heart that he just asked Bobo and Lumière to pick up in the Moonhazy Woodland, but he didn't expect the chief mechanic to complete this work by the way!
As soon as he opened the chat room, before he could edit the text, lines of messages had already popped up-
……
"Rhaegar (Guild Elder): Hey, hey, is anyone there?
Sissy (Guild Elf): I'm here.
Rhaegar: You're not human, are there anyone else?
Rhaeggar: Who took the sword oil I kept in the warehouse? Hehe, don't think I don't know, I count every day, and today is one bottle less than yesterday!
Rhaegar: And the summoning function? @马修, come out and speak!
Rhaeggar: Why don't you speak? What the hell are you doing? I feel a little scared......
Bobo: Uncle, it's stupid for you to speak like that.
Lumière: +1
Lumière: I just clicked wrong, what does the "+1" next to it mean?
Lumière: Matthew, are you okay?
Matthew: I'm fine, the air in the astral plane isn't as bad as I thought it would be.
Lumière: That's good. (smiley)
Hibbert: @马修, Felivan let me tell you that Tyranny told her, and Beanna told Terranie that she had discovered that someone suspected to be from the Brotherhood of Frost had stolen a Troll-Age artwork called The Fatherkiller.
At the same time, we find that another painting of the same name has disappeared.
The name of the painting is "Wedding", and the wedding is about an ancient troll hero marrying his mother (word limit, not all)......
……
Killing a father and marrying a mother?
Matthew thought of Setrenk almost immediately!
"That guy is playing that big?"
"I'm afraid this is the ritual of his promotion to a legend."
"The words of killing my father must have come at me, marry my mother......"
"Is it Gasriwen?"
Matthew suddenly thought of the legends about the Thousand Changelings.
At that moment, he immediately passed through the chat room and asked Hibbert to bring a message to Hood -
Matthew asked Hood to tell Qin Wuyue that the Silver Frost Brotherhood and even Sen'er might do something to the Snail Valley Prison!
Although this conjecture is crazy.
But the target is the number one crazy person in the material world, whether it's Setrunk or Sener, Matthew has to guard against it.
He groaned.
In fact, the safest way now is to use the authority of the father to immediately dissolve the equilibrium contract between the two.
Matthew could be sure that this would be 100% able to stop Setrenk's ritual.
But it's safer to do so.
But he also gave up the initiative.
Matthew wasn't thinking about making a move on Setrenk.
It's that his relationship with Setrenk has always been the enemy, and the secret is in the dark.
It's very difficult to catch Setrenk.
There is no 100% certainty, and it will only startle the snake if you do it easily.
But now it's different.
The other party chose the promotion ritual of purgatory mode.
Then it is inevitable to have a head-on conflict with Matthew.
It's also an opportunity for Matthew.
He knows it well.
The Wood Elf Elders' Church is certainly not a thing.
Neither is Setrenk.
Let's just destroy both sides together!
"Just let me see what you are capable of, dare to kill your father and marry your mother!"
Matthew secretly made up his mind.
He then told everyone in the chat room to be cautious about using their daily communication opportunities.
By the way, he also helped the elf Sisi complain about the improper behavior of the members of the members stuffing messy things into the guild warehouse.
As for Rhaeggar's questioning in the chat room.
was ignored by Matthew-
As the president, what's wrong with getting a bottle of sword oil?
It didn't take long.
Two private chats passed on.
Matthew took a look, and the two pieces of information came from the newcomers Loran and Eli, respectively.
……
"Loraine: Squeak when you need my help, but don't expect me to go to the astral plane, I have a bit of enemies over there, and it will only be bad if I go, it's okay to play songs and blow the flute for you remotely, take care."
"Eli: I heard you've hit the astral plane? That's amazing, Matthew! The queen of the land of a thousand lakes just found me, and she said that she also has a bit of a disagreement with the people of the Dragon God Society, and they can provide some help if you want, but I think she is a little selfish in this regard, you better deal with the situation and pay attention to safety! I'm waiting for you to come to my wedding!"
……
Matthew replied to the two with a smile.
Immediately began to calculate, if Setrenk wanted to join the chaos, where would the opponent enter the game?
If only he was alone.
Matthew doesn't have much to fear at all.
But if Sener also enters, he'll find it tricky.
After all, he has Isabel's patron saint on him, and this kind of thing is probably a bright card.
If the enemy really makes a move, he must have prepared some surprises for himself.
To prevent rollover.
Matthew took out the bronze badge again, but before he could take the initiative to contact him, Richard's message had already been sent:
"I'm in the Moonlight Glade, and something pulls me."
Matthew breathed a sigh of relief.
With the silver snake here, at least there is a balance when facing Sen'er.
All you need to do is deal with the native forces of the Sampan Plane and the possible entry of Setrenk.
As for Lance the Sorcerer.
Matthew found the God of War Zombie and asked:
"Have you found his spiritual origin?"
Vasnov replied:
"Don't rush."
"That kid is very cunning and hides himself tightly, but I probably already have a clue."
"Give me two more days."
"Well, this is the primary version of the Sea Elf Meditation Method, you can take it and take a look first."
Matthew dissatisfied:
"Why don't you just give me the full version?"
Vasnov said helplessly:
"I only have the primary version, and the full version has been destroyed!"
Matthew frowned:
"Actually destroying knowledge, which bastard did it?"
Vasnov glanced at him:
"Ms. Isabel."
Matthew changed his face instantly:
"Well done."
"I was scolding you for that bastard just now."
Vasnov shrugged indifferently:
"I can let you scold you for a while, after all, we are in solidarity now, and I don't want to see you torn to shreds by Lady Isabel."
Matthew couldn't help but shudder.
He was about to ask what Vasnov had talked to Isabel about, when a bright light fell from the starry sky.
Suddenly.
The entire sky was filled with a blazing glow.
It's dawn!
It's daytime on the sampan plane.
It will last about two hours.
During this period.
The constant scorching sun will relentlessly lap the ground and clouds, and if you don't hide in the shade, even the rough-skinned dragonmen may get sunburned!
At that moment, the undead at the edge of the death canopy quickly appeared to burn under the sunlight.
Matthew quickly pulled them back under the clouds.
In the sunlight.
He could see more clearly the mess and misery on the ground.
On the ruins of Tyrannosaurus Town.
Corpses are tragically displayed here.
The undead walked among the ruins, the atmosphere solemn and eerie, with a terrifying chill.
"Life ......"
Matthew sighed softly.
A glimmer of pity welled up in his heart.
He knew these astral creatures deserved to die.
But he will also have some mercy.
There is no conflict between the two.
And just when Matthew sighed.
He suddenly felt a strong breath of life!
This breath came so suddenly and violently that it gave people a strange feeling.
Matthew looked around in amazement.
The town of Tyrannosaurus has become a paradise of death, all life has rested, where is the breath of life?
Unless......
"Unless this breath of life is pouring out of me!"
That moment.
Matthew was surprised to see that the green points of light that he had accumulated in order to seek authority in the natural realm were instantly emptied!
Followed by.
The half of the comma where the point of light is located has also undergone an earth-shattering metamorphosis.
At a certain moment.
The edges have turned golden!
That's not the natural realm.
That's—
The realm of life!
……
"Hint: Between your previous accumulation and the impressions and gains from the execution of the Undead Scourge, you have successfully broken into the realm of life and achieved the level of exploration at the veteran level!
You gain abilities related to the following three life domains –
1. Spirit Seed (You can divide into some spirit imprints, and indirectly manipulate other life forms through these imprints (you can't control the undead).
You can currently create up to two brands.
When you have a strong enough soul body, you can theoretically divide up to seven imprints. )
2. Rich Life (Increases your health by three times; When out of combat, your health regeneration rate is increased by 5 times)
3. Holy Deer (Legendary Wilderness Form) (You can transform into a noble and elegant Celestial Deer (LV21), in this form, you will have the ability to summon unicorns and pure maidens, as well as the ability to freely travel between the major planes and the astral plane, in particular, you can use this ability to enter the Sea of Ten Thousand Realms at a certain time)"
……
didn't wait for Matthew to see clearly the feedback from the field of life to himself.
His eyes quickly went dark.
Then.
A sense of familiarity came over me.
He knew that his consciousness was about to reach some world related to the realm of life!
But when Matthew opened his eyes.
He was amazed to see a lush sea of trees!
"It's ...... A sea of trees? ”
"I came straight in?"
Before Matthew could see what he was like, a terrible roar suddenly sounded in his ears.
Followed by.
A behemoth stepped over from the canopy of the sea of trees!
What kind of creature is that?
His six legs were like pillars of heaven stepping on the towering sea of trees.
And his body is more like a continent floating above the sky.
Matthew stood on an extremely high position.
All you could see was that the beast had four endless dorsal fins behind it.
These dorsal fins are cross-shaped and have a soft texture when they look.
But in the eyes of mortals, each dorsal fin is like a mountain range that stretches for thousands of miles!
Matthew couldn't see the beast's head.
All he could see was a pair of huge crab-like pincers frantically cutting through the trees in the sea of trees!
That moment.
Matthew became dry-mouthed.
He recognized this terrifying beast!
It just so happened to be at this time.
A milky voice sounded in his ear:
"Everyone has decided, it's up to you to face the giant beast Alister."
"Are you ready, Guardian of the Sea of Ten Thousand Worlds?"
……
