Chapter 406: No One Is More Concerned About the Living Than the Necromancer
Translator: Lonelytree
Rheagar’s expression was a little pained.
[Hint: Your Tauren Element +10]
[You have accumulated enough elements. Do you want to explore the Tauren domain for the second time?]
That counted?!
Seeing the reluctant look on Rheagar’s face, Matthew chose to postpone the exploration.
It was more important to summon his underlings first.
He placed goose feathers on the corpses of the mountain wolves. Then, he smeared a small jar of low-quality corpse oil evenly between their eyes.
It was supplemented by a series of basic rituals.
Fifteen minutes later.
Matthew began to chant the Summoning of the Dead to awaken the spirits.
Three minutes later.
The crescent moon had just risen.
Spectres stood up from the mountain wolf’s corpse.
They slowly moved their limbs around Matthew.
From time to time, spirit wolves lowered their heads and rubbed their foreheads against Matthew’s hand.
This was a master recognition ceremony.
“It’s simpler than I thought.”
Matthew heaved a sigh of relief.
Perhaps this was related to him becoming a high-level necromancer.
After all, spirit creatures were relatively low-level.
He summoned them with ease.
On the data panel.
[Hint: You have obtained a new summon, ‘Spirit Wolf’ x38.]
[Spirit Wolf: A ghost-type undead formed from pure soul energy and a little soul fire. They have characteristics similar to human ghosts and have their own special abilities.]
[Special characteristic: Air Step (Every spirit wolf has a permanent levitation spell on their body, allowing them to walk in the air as if they were walking on flat ground, but they can’t fly for long periods of time.) In other words, their ‘flight’ was closer to gliding.]
[Ability 1: Tear (Ghost Wolf pounces on the target and tears the target apart with its claws, causing a lot of physical damage)]
[Ability 2: Wolf Howling (Ghost Wolves can howl in a way that is even more bizarre and terrifying than normal wolves. If multiple Ghost Wolves howl at the same time, it will produce a certain stunning effect.]
[Group ability: Harassment (When a group of spirit wolves move together, they will automatically grasp the tactics of mutual interference, mutual cover to harass the enemy)]
[Group Ability: Gale (When a group of spirit wolves move together, they can release a gale to cover themselves and confuse others)]
[In addition, the alpha wolf of the spirit wolf pack gained an additional ability.]
[Group Ability: Single Blade (When a group of spirit wolves harass the enemy with their group ability, the leading spirit wolf can attack the enemy from another angle. At this time, he will receive an attack bonus and his ambush will become extremely threatening)]
After looking at the attributes, Matthew knew that his judgment was correct.
The Spirit Wolf was undoubtedly the most suitable undead unit for this battle.
There were not many undead that could fly, and more than half of them were of the Spectre type.
Considering that he would have to deal with various situations in the future, he even planned to bring these spirit wolves back to the cemetery to give them a place to live.
The master recognition ceremony was coming to an end.
The spirit wolves cheered and jumped around Matthew like docile dogs.
Matthew opened the Undying Domain to see if there were any surprises.
In the next moment.
As expected, the Undead Summoning (Spirit Wolf) had a reaction!
[Hint: Your spirit wolves have received the blessing of the Undying Domain, the ” Pale Fang ‘
[Pale Fang: You can choose three Ghost Wolves to become the Pale Fang. The
Pale Fang will share the attributes of your Pale Hand!]
Current Pale Hand Attributes-1. Attack range: 9.2 meters
Attacks carry instant death.
Attacks have a lifesteal effect
Remaining time: 3 days and 14 hours.
This was indeed a small surprise.
Matthew then designated the alpha wolf and the other two spirit wolves with strong soul fire as his Pale Fang.
This was like a lottery in a chaotic battle.
The biggest weakness of the Hand of Paleness was the low frequency of instant death.
However, with the three wolves taking turns, the probability was greatly increased.
Most importantly, controlling the Pale Fang to bite people was much safer than Matthew using the Pale Hand himself.
After dealing with the underlings.
The two of them continued to set off.
The snow kept falling near the big tree.
Rheagar took out a big black umbrella from his storage ring. The two of them walked in the wilderness at night with the umbrella.
They were surrounded by thick fog and snowflakes.
Other than the sound of snowflakes falling on the ground, there was only silence.
The light was getting dimmer.
Fortunately, Rheagar had natural night vision. Matthew did not light the fire and followed him closely.
The two of them successfully arrived at the foot of the giant tree.
There was not much snow here.
Rheagar kept the black umbrella.
The two of them walked around the tree and did not find anything special.
Matthew only felt that he was standing in front of a dead object. The green leaves on the branches were fake like plastic, and their insides had been hollowed out by the withering power.
He flew to the top of the tree on a magic carpet to check and found that there were no vines hanging from it.
A few minutes later.
Matthew, who found nothing, used his equalized perception.
In an instant.
The energy field within a radius of several miles entered Matthew’s eyes.
“I found it. The entrance is actually underground.”
Matthew led Rheagar to the back of the tree.
Ten steps away from the tree, he found a staircase that led underground.
After moving the stone slab on the steps away, the two of them slowly descended and arrived at a sealed underground stone room.
The environment here was a little like a tomb, giving people a depressed and gloomy feeling.
Matthew searched the stone room for a while and soon found the hidden magic door.
“Prepare for battle.”
Matthew said to Rheagar and then called the spirit wolves to his side.
He took out the Defensive Psalm and used an unlocking spell on the secret door.
In the blink of an eye, a magic portal glowing with green light appeared on the left side of the stone wall.
Matthew and Soldier stepped over together.
In the next second.
He appeared on an empty platform.
There were no railings around the platform. It was pitch black at the moment. Cold wind blew in from outside as if they were in the sky.
In the middle of the platform was a woman with scabies all over her face.
She had been sitting there in a daze, but the moment she saw Matthew, she jumped up on the spot. Then, she took out a copper whistle from her pocket and wanted to blow it hard.
At the crucial moment.
Matthew took half a step forward with the Defensive Psalm in his hand, then activated the spell of the Pink Chapter embedded in it.
Delirium!
He opened his mouth and spat out a pink mist at the woman. The woman was stunned for a moment before she pounced on Matthew with a lewd smile.
“Hehehehe…
The scabies on her face did not affect Matthew.
He calmly turned his body to the side and avoided the woman’s pounce.
Soldier then struck the woman’s neck with his hand.
The latter fell unconscious.
In the next second.
Rheagar appeared between the two of them with his greatsword.
“Did I miss something?”
Rheagar turned around to look at the woman. Her face was covered by her black hair. She was lying on the ground, and it was obvious that she had a good figure.
It’s nothing. I just took care of a sentry. To avoid alerting the enemy, I plan to tie her up first and then cover her mouth.”
Matthew didn’t know if there was a connection between the Witherers to tell when one of them had died.
However, to be safe, it was better not to kill her first.
Rheagar’s interest was piqued.
“Give me the rope.
“I have to show you the binding techniques of the older generation of adventurers. Let me tell you, there are eighteen methods of binding…” However, before he could finish his sentence.
Soldier had already tied her up tightly and stuffed a rag into her mouth.
“It seems that you youngsters are also very good at binding.” Rheagar looked at Matthew meaningfully.
Matthew ignored his gaze and picked up the copper whistle.
Then, he began to carefully size up his surroundings.
On the data panel.
[Hint: You have arrived at the Cloud Inn’s Watchtower]
Cloud Inn was a platform built in midair.
It looked like a floating island.
It was in the shape of a spindle-like object.
The platform in the middle was the widest. As they walked up and down, the edges of the platforms began to narrow.
They were currently at the lowest observation deck.
This place was only a dozen square meters in size.
There were no railings at the edge of the watchtower.
Looking down, even if Matthew wasn’t afraid of heights, he still shivered a few times.
On their left was a revolving staircase. The staircase also had no railings. Fortunately, it was built near the centre.
Matthew and Rheagar made a gesture.
The two of them walked up the stairs quietly.
Very quickly.
They arrived at the second last level.
Still on the stairs.
Matthew heard a fierce argument.
“Why do you always enter the door with your right foot?” “Why did you stop putting chilli in your cooking now?”
They sounded like a middle-aged couple.
They were arguing.
With a thought, Soldier slowly disappeared into the shadows.
