MTL - A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees-Chapter 162 Rhaegar's sisters
Chapter 162 Rhaegar's Sisters
…
Compared with the surface, the dungeon is a place full of dangers.
Not only are there many underground residents lurking in the shadows, but there may also be dark creatures from the shadow plane or the evil spirit plane.
In the Hundred Cities Distribution Plan.
The Seven Saints Alliance once warned the mages of various city-states that if they want to develop the underground space of their city, they must strictly follow the 300-meter principle.
That is, the depth of digging down shall not exceed 300 meters at most.
The actual operation is safest within 180 meters.
In the history of Aindor, it is not uncommon for a certain city to dig too deep and cause **** disasters.
The underground world has another set of survival logic.
This is also related to the fact that the Scourge mage did not touch the dark gods hidden underground when he exiled Tianlun Palace.
Therefore, when Matthew planned his underground space, he also strictly followed the principle of 300 meters.
Actually.
His cemetery is only 7-9 meters away from the surface, and the safety precautions are definitely full.
And after listening to the description of ghost Ali.
Matthew's first reaction was "Will there be fraud in it?".
He didn't suspect that Ali had set him up, but that it was very rare for an open-pit sulfur mine to appear underground.
Because all dark creatures need sulfur, this thing is considered a hard currency for creatures in the underground world.
Once a sulfur mine is discovered.
It will definitely be mined immediately.
Considering that the underground space in the Gold Digger Basin has been repeatedly plowed several times by human miners, adventurers, kobolds, gnolls and other underground creatures.
Matthew feels that the probability of slipping through the net is relatively low.
"However, if the sulfur mine is close to the surface and the location is rather tricky, it is indeed possible that no one cares about it."
He inquired about the location of the sulfur mine in detail.
After confirming that its location does not exceed the 300-meter principle.
Matthew decided to lead the team to survey.
At the moment, he asked Ali to lead the way, and called a team of skeleton soldiers, a team of silver moon zombies, and six ghost wolves.
Walked mightily towards a small tunnel.
Along the way, Matthew also used the "Necromorph" on a whim.
He turned into a skeleton dwarf who was a musketeer in his lifetime, mixing among the skeleton soldiers.
In front of him is Renesme, behind him is A Bing, and on both sides are other undead.
Because the dwarves are too short.
Matthew was sure that if he drilled into the army pile, the enemy would never find him.
can be corresponding.
He didn't seem to be able to tell.
Along the way.
He just looks at Renesmee's ass...
This underground march took about two hours.
Ali led them to find a raging underground river. Matthew judged based on his sense of direction that this river was most likely a branch of the Old Lady River on the surface.
Walk along the underground river for another twenty minutes.
There is no way ahead.
Ali pointed to the black stone wall and said:
"Don't look at the thickness here, after about 5 meters, there is a hollow underground basin."
"If it is a living creature, it can swim through the underground river. I remember there is an entrance over there."
Matthew asked Renee Smee to go down the river to try.
Not long.
He sensed all safety signals from the contract.
He could feel that Renesmee was not far away from him, only about ten meters away.
This shows that Ali is not lying.
So he led the team down the river, swam for a short distance, and found the underground basin that Ali mentioned very easily.
As soon as the water comes out.
Matthew smelled a strong and pungent smell.
The air in the underground basin is hot and humid.
Matthew made a preliminary estimate and found that the depth here is about 800 meters, the horizontal space is also 60 meters, and the height of the head is relatively short, only 3 to 4 meters.
There is indeed a sulfur mine exposed on the surface.
Matthew is not a mineralogist, but his basic common sense as a mage is enough for him to make a judgment—
This sulfur mine is easy to mine, and its purity is not low.
If you develop it properly, you can make a lot of money yourself!
This discovery made Matthew happy and worried.
Happy is naturally a windfall.
What is worrying is that sulfur ore with such a high purity appears here, excluding the possibility of underground volcanoes, then there is only one possibility—
Underground basins contain cracks from the abyss.
The sulfur is leaking from the inside.
Demons have been known to view sulfur as a tonic, and their noses are naturally gifted with the ability to search for sulfur ore.
Maybe one day, a few demons will touch it.
"I can do a joint survey in advance and plug the cracks."
"The demons may not have time to find them. Even if they come, they will probably be small fish, so they won't be unable to deal with it."
Matthew settled down.
At the moment he asked Ali:
"Have you seen demonic creatures around?"
Ali shook his head:
"No."
"There is a nest of cavemen in the lower reaches of the underground river, and they rarely come here."
"There is a tribe of Dreadclaws in the lower space about 5 miles away from here. Their number is relatively large, but it is too humid here, so it should not be easy to come here."
Matthew looked at Ali with interest:
"Do you know the habits of the Dreadclaw?"
The Dreadclaw is a common underground creature.
They have the head of a vulture and the body of a giant beetle, with an exoskeleton adorned with spikes and bony protrusions.
The claws at the ends of its limbs are terrifying.
Once a person who lacks defense is caught, it is good luck to have his skin and flesh bruised, and it is more likely to end up being disemboweled!
The Dreadclaw got its name from this.
The colony of this creature maintains the tradition of the matriarchal clan, and they feed on whatever prey, lichen, fungi, etc. they can catch or find.
the most important is.
The Dreadclaw has a vengeful character, and the members of the same race are particularly united.
In case you accidentally provoke a Dreadclaw, the next time you meet, it will definitely bring a large group of three aunts and six aunts to trouble you.
The only obvious shortcoming of them is that they are afraid of water, and they also hate wet places.
The above knowledge is necessary for a mage.
But others are not so easy to know.
Under Matthew's curious eyes.
Ali's expression darkened:
"There is a library deep in Zandar's cemetery. The owner of the library is an amiable Mr. Mummy. He allows us to borrow the books in it freely, but we must cherish every book."
“I spent a long time in the library and read a lot of books. Unknowingly, my body has undergone some changes.”
"My thinking seems to be more sensitive than before."
"It's a pity that the library was destroyed during the dragon disaster, and Mr. Mummy was also captured by the red dragon Cusulus."
Matthew nodded.
Ali is still very good on the whole, at least he is more knowledgeable than the centaur.
Matthew surveyed the vicinity in the middle of the night again.
Leave two ghost wolves behind as sentinels.
He returned to the cemetery.
He definitely wants to develop this sulfur mine, but he has to discuss with Lei Jia and the others how to operate it.
Matthew has never had the habit of eating alone.
Early the next morning.
After waking up, Matthew left the cemetery and returned to his home in the town.
He planned to get some saplings from the greenhouse first, and then went to the Lord's Mansion to fish.
But he just walked to the door.
But found someone outside to discuss the mind.
Matthew coughed:
"Jeff?"
The man shuddered and turned around nervously.
"Thank goodness I found you!"
The peddler Jeff, who hadn’t seen him for a long time, said happily:
"If I hadn't blocked you at the door, I was going to try my luck in the oak forest to the east, but I just heard that the forest over there is very strange, and there is a towering man-eating tree growing in it! "
"I saw that tree and it's so tall, you planted it right? That's pretty cool!"
Matthew takes a quick look at Jeff.
I found that all the clothes, accessories and backpacks on his body were replaced with expensive items that were several grades higher than before.
So Matthew corrected him:
"That is the world tree, not the cannibal tree."
"Where have you been during this time?"
Jeff laughed:
"Sorry, Matthew, I can't speak."
"In short, I've had good luck, and I'm fully developed!"
"I am no longer a poor boy who is spurned and suspected by others. After meeting you, I will leave Rolling Stone Town and start a new chapter in my life!"
said.
He carefully took out a small bag of heavy things and handed it to Matthew.
"You take it."
"I don't charge you money, I know you need this, you are a very down-to-earth tree-planting mage."
Jeff said triumphantly:
"You don't have to thank me too much for helping me back then, it's considered a return."
Finish this sentence.
He patted his clothes with relief, then waved to Matthew:
"So, goodbye, Matthew."
Matthew stopped him:
"Are you sure there is no problem?"
Jeff walked lightly without looking back:
"When you are no longer poor, what's the problem?"
Matthew couldn't help throwing a Detect Evil at him, but until Jeff's back disappeared, there was no abnormal reaction to the spell effect.
He opened the bag silently.
A golden light came out of it!
…
「Hint: You got a small bag of "Holy Oak Seeds (Natural Wonder!"
…
Matthew raised his head suddenly. He turned into a raven and tried to catch up with Jeff, wanting to ask him where the seed came from.
can be surprising.
Jeff has completely disappeared in the empty streets and alleys of the Mage District.
"This guy, doesn't he join some criminal organization?"
"But he promised me not to do three hands anymore, and he doesn't look guilty. Could it be that he was deceived? Or someone wants to deceive me through him?"
"How about fishing with such a precious thing as holy oak seeds?"
Go all the way to the Lord's Hall.
Matthew is thinking about this matter.
Routine morning meeting.
Matthew was the first to tell the two about his discovery of the sulfur mine.
After a brief discussion between Rega and Zeller, they initially formulated a framework for developing sulfur mines.
at the same time.
Matthew also took advantage of the opportunity and proposed to officially receive the criminals in the prison into his own cemetery.
He has already prepared the dungeon area and labor reformation workshop for them.
Now the discovery of sulfur ore can make the labor reformation workshop come in handy. The sulfur as the main material of Blazing Glue will be initially refined in the cemetery, plus other materials provided by Rhaegar's Rolling Stone Chamber of Commerce.
Arsonists will be required to make blazing glue and dragon oil for Matthew in his cemetery.
These two items are very popular no matter where they are.
What's more, the skills of the arsonists are recognized by Matthew.
Rega welcomed this plan with both hands. He has long been tired of this group of guys who eat and don't work.
And Zeller is prudently exhorting Matthew:
"There may be certain risks in letting arsonists make blazing glue."
Matthew is full of confidence in this:
"As long as they enter my cemetery, they will never have the thought of committing a crime."
"I will let the ghosts absorb part of their energy and make them depressed; then let the skeletons and zombies be by the side as supervisors, and at the same time warn them of their fate if they dare to rebel."
"Actually, if they really rebel, wouldn't it be good news for Rolling Stone Town? At least there is a chance to kill them in a legitimate way, and I will also have a batch of undead serving me. The production of Blazing Glue , the big deal is to seriously recruit a group of workers!"
See Matthew so determined.
Zeller didn't say anything, and said that the prisoner would be handed over to Matthew's cemetery at the latest this afternoon.
Matthew got a batch of free labor as he wished, and leaned on the sofa contentedly.
"Is there any news in Rolling Stone Town recently?"
he asked casually.
Rega shook his head, and opened a newspaper:
"The recent news happened in Gaoyeling. It is said that when the army of Hongtu Mountain crossed the golden fertile field and tried to attack the mainland of Gaoyeling, they were attacked by a black dragon and suffered heavy casualties in the end.
Li Weiqi and Huo Wen summoned back and said that the black dragon seemed to have reached some kind of agreement with Gao Yeling.
He occupied the mountain near the Alpine Reservoir.
Currently the situation in Gao Yeling is still chaotic, with small-scale fights happening every day. "
Zeller nodded:
"Recently, the number of refugees coming from Gao Yeling to seek refuge with their relatives has surged. I have arranged for the garrison to step up patrolling. It should not affect the security of Rolling Stone Town in the short term."
Matthew stretched his waist, he was very satisfied with the calm status quo.
Thinking about it, Lorraine has gone to Gao Ye to lead it. There must be no big news in Rolling Stone Town in the short term.
After a while.
Rega suddenly said:
"There are also big things happening on the Watcher's Heights.
It is said that several groups of evil organizations gathered together and launched a raid on the headquarters of the Druid Order.
It is said that the remnants of the Scar of the Dead near Watcher's Heights were also agitated that night.
Some residents claimed to have witnessed a super huge figure, which was as tall as two or three hills.
The Druid Order seeks help from the Seven Saints Alliance.
The alliance is currently still setting up an investigation team.
But according to my estimation, the mages don't care about this kind of thing at all, and they are just pretending.
It said that the main force of the attack that night was suspected to be the Blight Organization from the Helen Mountains, and their leader was a guy called the King of Blight.
What a shit!
The Helen Mountains are thousands of miles away from the Watcher's Heights.
Did they fly over in a hot air balloon? "
Lei Jia complained a few words, then suddenly laughed again:
"If you hadn't come to work every day recently, I would suspect that you organized this raid.
After all, the newspaper said that the biggest loss of the Druid Order this time was some holy oak seeds.
It feels like it will be something you are interested in. "
Heard this.
Matthew suddenly felt that the small bag of seeds in his arms became a little hot.
Jeff sure has a problem!
This guy won't really be involved in the attack on the Druid Order, right?
It doesn't look like it.
He is just a mortal, at most he has a little bit of petty theft ability, and his level will not exceed LV3.
How could it be related to the criminal organization in the north?
Matthew is still thinking about what to do with the bag of seeds.
Mrs. Wesley rarely walked in when no one was summoned:
"The maids came to me in a panic and said that something was wrong with Sif's body temperature. I went to see it, and it was really serious. Her heartbeat was a little unstable."
Rega pondered:
"I'll go and have a look, but it shouldn't be a big problem. The body temperature of the blood flag family can reach a maximum temperature of more than 50 degrees."
Ms. Wesley shook her head:
"The child's condition is completely different from yours when you were a child. I have never seen a child with such a severe body temperature attack, but no emotional change."
"She may have buried herself too deep, you know what I mean, Rhaegar?"
Rega nodded solemnly.
He lifted his foot and walked to the backyard of the Lord's Mansion.
Zeller patted Matthew on the shoulder:
"Let's go and have a look."
The backyard of the Lord's Mansion.
Outside Sif's room, a little devil was hooking its tail on the chandelier, hanging upside down in mid-air bored.
Until the sound of footsteps.
She obediently jumped to the ground.
"Nini? You came out? How is Sif?"
Rega looked at the little devil in surprise.
The little devil said old-fashionedly:
"You also know that little master Sif has never liked me, so whenever she has a little strength, she will seal me up and prevent me from moving freely."
"So her current condition is probably very bad. I saw that she has grown horns, but only a little bit, and it's soft. It doesn't have the style of a high-ranking devil blood!"
Her voice is delicate and very nice.
Rega came to Sif's bedside, stretched out his hand and pressed her forehead, with an unpredictable expression.
Matthew also walked in to check Sif's condition.
She is wearing a very thin pajamas now.
His face was extremely pale.
The whole body showed a very unnatural stiffness.
The most obtrusive.
is the cute little horn growing on her forehead.
The horns are flesh pink, only a small pinch, and it doesn't look sharp, but has an unspeakable childishness.
Look at the horn.
Matthew felt a little strange in his heart. He had seen Rhaegar's second form, which was obviously two horns growing on both sides, somewhat similar to a goat.
Why does Sif only have one, and it grows in the middle, a bit like a unicorn?
He lost a detect life.
It was found that Sif's vital signs were very weak, which obviously cannot be explained by the awakening of the blood.
"I need a bucket of ice water, a big bucket!"
Rega's tone was a little anxious.
Matthew immediately said:
"Just have someone bring the bucket over."
Soon, a strong servant carried a wooden barrel to Sif's bedroom.
Matthew first threw a trick towards it: creating water, and then used water manipulation to pull a wave of water from a nearby well.
Then he dropped a Frostpath to cool the water.
Soon, a bucket of near-zero water was completed.
Rhaegar picked up Sif and was about to throw her into the barrel.
Matthew hurriedly stopped:
"Would she be unable to bear this?"
Rega shook his head and said:
"The devil's body is much stronger than you imagined. Don't worry, Matthew, I am her father, and I know what she needs."
After thinking about it, Matthew stepped aside:
"Sorry, Rhaegar."
Rega didn't say anything, he slowly put Sif's body into the barrel.
Googloo.
Some bubbles pop up.
Faint water vapor evaporated from the surface of the water.
Soaked for five or six minutes.
Zeller squeezed a few more large ice cubes and handed them to Rega to throw into the barrel.
Half an hour later.
Rega walked out of Sif's bedroom, and said to the two men at the door:
"Sif's condition has stabilized, and she shouldn't have any problems in the short term.
But her awakening state is indeed very strange. After she woke up, her consciousness was very clear, and her personality didn't change much—let alone change, there wasn't even a slight fluctuation.
This is so inconsistent with the common sense of the devil!
The devil is a conformist guy all his life.
But only during the awakening period.
They can become very rebellious and crazy.
Not so for Sif.
Although I am not particularly worried about whether she can awaken successfully.
But just to be on the safe side.
I plan to go back to my hometown recently.
Look through the information and ask those old men in the castle. "
Matthew raised his eyebrows.
The hometown Rega mentioned.
That must refer to the Blood Banner Kingdom located in Purgatory!
Mention this.
Rhaegar seemed to be moaning.
Matthew couldn't help but curiously said:
"Is going home such a torture for you?"
Rhaegar said nothing.
Still Zeller said with a smile:
"As the 27th heir to the Blood Banner Kingdom, the first 26 are all women.
Although the devils allow women to inherit the throne, Rhaegar, as a rare male, theoretically also has the responsibility to spread the branches of the family.
And in order to ensure that the blood of the upper devil is not diluted, the unspoken rule within the Blood Banner family is close relatives.
Regar escaped from Purgatory.
Although many years have passed, if he goes back now, there is still a high probability that he will be pulled to breed.
And the target object may be a higher heir.
That is Rhaegar's older sisters. "
After listening, Rega seriously corrected and said:
"And the aunts."
Matthew secretly clicked his tongue after listening.
It's a pity that he can't help much about Sif's awakening.
At the moment, I can only pray for her silently.
By the way, I wish Rhaegar all the best in his journey to purgatory.
…
afternoon.
Matthew has just returned to the oak woods.
An ecstatic voice came over:
"It's done!"
"We did it, Matthew!"
…
「Reminder: Your partner Eli and your servant Obest have initially completed the layout of the ritual field "Life Sanctuary"!
WARNING: The Sanctuary of Life is in conflict with the cemetery, try to coordinate? "
