Matthew put one hand on his chest to pay tribute to the direction where Hesse was buried.
The three newly obtained abilities obviously come from the arsonist.
And they are very practical.
"Heat resistance" can reduce fire damage;
"Scud" makes up for part of the mobility;
And the physique and toughness provided by "Tenacious" are what Matthew dreams of now.
Combined with Hessen's performance that day after being stabbed in the back, he was still able to run hundreds of meters.
The arsonist clearly possesses more than one ability or trait that increases his toughness.
Matthew would be content if he could catch just one.
"At present, it seems that the gifts of nature have no negative effects. I use the oak field to perceive them, and for the time being I have figured out the principle that "an oak tree can only bury one corpse in a short period of time."
Matthew's mind became more active.
Although he has no intention of turning the oak forest into a new cemetery, if he encounters a suitable corpse in the future, he will definitely not let it go!
The only thing that's regrettable is...
Choosing "Nature's Gift" is equivalent to giving up the body of an undead creature.
in a sense.
Matthew noticed that this ability seemed to be trying to guide him on the 'right path'.
Although the way of giving gifts is somewhat evil.
…
The next few days.
Matthew planted trees diligently.
And Ella always followed suit.
She looked at Matthew eagerly every day, hoping that the latter would change his mind.
However, Matthew chose to ignore it.
Even when she gets too close.
A Bing would suddenly jump out from the corner and stab her!
This frightened Ella so much that she flew all over the branches.
Of course Ah Bing didn't mean to hurt her.
He only used Ella as a target for practicing sneak attacks under Matthew's instruction.
After every attack, he immediately turned on the cloak of darkness and disappeared, which made Ella feel very sad and did not dare to get close to the ground at all.
But no matter how Matthew threatened Ella.
The owl never left.
She followed Matthew with all her strength, trying to persuade him to join the Moonlight Society at every opportunity.
It's a pity that times have changed.
Until the night six days later.
Matthew finally found Ella and expressed his willingness to give her a chance, but only if Ella told the truth.
"Why did you leave Moonglade to find me? I want to hear the truth."
Matthew looked into Ella's eyes.
The latter gathered his feathers and shrank back:
…
"This is the will of the Moonlight Goddess. I drove you away that day, but I received an unprecedented punishment from the goddess. She struck me with thunder and lightning 100 times, and then drove me out of the Moonlight Woodland!"
"I must take you back! If I cannot complete this task within a month, I will be deprived of my spirituality and permanently exiled. I will become a confused beast... Please Matthew, I really
I know I was wrong!”
"For the sake of the goddess, please join the Moonlight Society!"
…
Ella begged.
Matthew thought thoughtfully: "Sure enough, it has something to do with the Moonlight Goddess. She can actually pay attention to me? Didn't it mean that since the Tianlun Palace was promoted, the connection between the heavenly realm and the main material realm has become very weak?"
He thought about it.
In the end, I decided to go back to Moonglade for a visit.
He knew very little about the gods in this world, and there seemed to be no Moonlight Goddess in the game in his previous life. Now that he had the opportunity to come into contact with her, he couldn't miss it easily.
As for Ella the owl.
With Matthew's mind, he would not continue to argue with her.
But necessary punishment is still necessary.
"What? You want me to do an 'initiation' for your oak forest every month until the three years are up?"
Ella exclaimed:
"Do you know how much energy it takes to enlighten me?"
Matthew glanced at her and then said calmly:
"At least you still have strength, right?"
Ella shrugged her head.
It seemed that he could no longer utter a word.
…
Late at night.
The moonlight finally came out from behind the clouds.
Under the personal guidance of Ella.
Matthew once again set foot on the land of Moonglade.
As soon as you enter the door.
Three rays of moonlight flew up from the altar in succession.
Landed on Matthew!
That moment.
He seemed to be bathing in a hot spring.
The pores all over the body are dilating.
…
"Tip: You have received the blessing of 'Moonwalker' from the Moonlight Goddess.
Moonwalker: When you walk under the moonlight, your intelligence and perception increase by 1 point each.
…
You have obtained the favor of the Moon Goddess ‘Guardian of the Woodland’.
Guardian of the Woodland: You have full regional reputation and legend in the Moonglade. You will have unimpeded access wherever you go, and you also have the ability to enter the Moonglade on your own under the moonlight.
…
You successfully joined the ‘Moonlight Society’!
Your ‘wilderness transformation’ eliminates the casting step and forward movement under the moonlight, and all attributes of the wilderness form are +1!”
…
"Wow."
Matthew had a look of amazement on his face. This series of blessings came so suddenly. In addition to joy, he also smelled a slight sense of crisis.
"What does Luna need from me?"
He knows very well that there is no such thing as a free lunch.
Ella next to her looked overjoyed:
"Congratulations, Mr. Matthew, you have become the first and only necromancer in the Moonlight Society!"
"Although you are not a formal member yet, thanks to the grace of the Moonlight Goddess, you can come and go in the Moonlight Woodland as freely as a formal member - the most important thing is that my mission is completed, and I finally don't have to worry about being expelled by the goddess, woo
Woo."
She laughed and choked up.
Matthew waited patiently for her to release her emotions.
Then he asked the question again.
"Or should I ask the goddess myself?"
As he said that, he was about to walk towards the altar.
"No, no, no, I am your guide, just let me convey the will of the goddess to you."
Ella spreads her wings and flies high:
"Follow me, Matthew, and along the way I'll explain to you what you need to do to become an official member of the Moonlight Society."
Ella's voice echoed in the woods for a long time.
Matthew noticed that the holy symbol belonging to the Moon Goddess on the altar was gradually dimming.
Then he followed Ella all the way.
Go through most of the woods.
Along the way, Matthew saw many natural spirits.
They all have the appearance of small animals. Unlike the natural spirits he encountered when traveling in the oak field, the natives of Moonglade were obviously lifeless.
They clearly symbolize vitality and the spirit of nature.
But in Matthew's eyes, it's not as energetic as a skeleton soldier!
The eyes of the natives looking at him were full of astonishment.
At first it was surprise and disgust.
But later, perhaps because they felt the grace of the Moonlight Goddess, most of them stayed in place for a while.
After a long time, he looked at Matthew with admiration.
Their expressions and eyes were very stiff, as if they were forced to do business.
"The situation in Moonglade seems to be bad."
Matthew noticed a detail. He didn't meet a single druid along the way!
You know, even if humans or elves druids are busy in the main material world, there is a probability that druids will be born among these natural soul natives.
But he didn't see any of them.
This is very unusual.
Now he quickly followed up with the cheerful Ella and told all his questions.
Ella lowered the flight altitude slightly:
"You are very keen. There are indeed few druids in the Moonglade. It was not like this before. I still remember when I was a child, when I was just born, the natural spirits in the jungle were full of vitality, and every forest was filled with people.
Druids, they will take the initiative to repair the scars of time caused by the natural passage of the demiplane."
"But then a disaster occurred. The woodland suffered a major blow. Many druids died, and no new druids were born in the soul of nature."
Matthew wondered: "Didn't you ask for help from the outside world?"
Ella sighed and said: "Yes, we have asked for help from the Watcher Highlands, the Far North Tundra and the Azure Sea, but they rejected us without exception!"
"Only a handful of young druids traveling outside are willing to help us, but their power is not enough to change this situation, so this place has become what you see now."
With continuous deepening.
Matthew noticed that the trees on both sides of the forest were dead.
This means that Moonglade is under attack by evil forces.
"Why did Watcher's Heights refuse to help?"
Matthew felt strange.
Ella flew down.
She stopped on a dead pine tree and looked around:
…
"Times have changed, Matthew, people are getting worse and worse, and druids are no exception.
Although the reason they rejected us was that they were also attacked by evil and were unable to provide support.
But I know the real reason, because we are moonwalkers, and they, they are the darlings of the earth."
…
Views from the portal.
Matthew did not expect that the Druids would refuse to provide help because of different factions.
Judging from the information he has learned so far.
The Moonlight Society is an organization under the moonlight goddess Assia, who may only hold a very small amount of authority related to nature.
Since the disaster Ella said, the druids who believe in moonlight have almost become extinct.
The remaining druids on this continent are all members of the 'Earth Society', which should be an organization founded by a god who controls the power of the earth.
There is no doubt that the god of earth has much higher power than the goddess of moonlight, and the authority he holds will also occupy more weight in the field of nature.
This has led to the current situation.
To put it more simply.
The Moonlight Society may have once been glorious, but now it has declined.
Matthew could basically understand why the Moonlight Goddess imposed divine punishment on Ella and why she treated him so well.
The situation in Moonglade is probably so bad that the Moonlight Goddess is starving for food.
Only Ella, a young man with a stupid head, dared to drive out those who might be able to help regardless of life and death.
Kicked Matthew away.
I don’t know when the next one who can fight will come in.
If she doesn’t get hacked, who will!?
"If it were a terrestrial association with a lot of talents, maybe there would be no room for me to be of use."
Matthew thought a little more.
…
"Here we are."
Fifteen minutes later.
Ella stopped in front of a dark cave.
She said towards the front:
"Your job is to get rid of those disgusting bugs here. If you can kill a "Crazy Guard", then you will become a formal member of the Moonlight Society, and the goddess of time will shower you with more grace."
at the same time.
The taskbar has also been updated for the first time in a long time.
…
"Side mission: Kill Kuangse!
Description: The Moonglade is being invaded by the Zergs, kill them all, and then give the Moonlight Goddess a hard blow!
