Chapter 25 Have you reached the stage of discussing marriage?
…
"No, that's not necessary."
After getting a negative reply from Ella.
Matthew could only continue regretfully:
"Maybe I made a mistake in my expression, but I really feel that this greenhouse is still far from the seed base I imagined, especially in terms of space."
"And I said we can do it in batches, there's no need to rush it all at once."
However, Ella showed unprecedented stubbornness.
She said seriously: "No! Matthew, the spirit of nature will do what it says, you just wait, after tonight, all the seeds will germinate!"
As she spoke, she flapped her wings and flew to the first seed shed.
A faint natural breath came out, and Ella started working energetically.
"Is she the arrogant nature spirit you told me about before? She doesn't look like a bad person."
Paige asked with interest.
Matthew nodded in agreement:
"Of course she is not a bad person. In fact, most of the nature spirits are very suitable to be friends. They are just blinded by stereotypes and discriminate against my profession. But it is not their fault. Necromancers are indeed easy to make mistakes.
Bad seed."
In fact, Matthew quite likes dealing with the spirits of nature, and this love can even be extended to most druids.
Their emotions are all written on their faces. If they like them, they like them, and if they hate them, they hate them. There are not so many smiles hiding knives and talking sweet words.
"So after having this child laborer, does this mean that I won't have to be responsible for the greenhouse work in the future?"
Paige asked expectantly.
Matthew smiled slightly:
"Ella is just here to help. She is new here and there are still many details that are unclear. She needs you to teach her. You are still indispensable here for the time being."
Paige glanced at her mouth:
"Well, I know the damned Necromancer won't let go of my free labor force."
Matthew smiled and handed over an irregular crystal that emitted white light.
"This month's salary."
Paige's soul fire instantly turned into the shape of a smiling face:
…
"Oh, Matthew, you are the kindest necromancer I have ever met!
I bet other necromancers won't pay their wages on time like you!
When I was still in the Golden Pit, I had a friend who was a creature contracted by a weird old man. He told me that the damn necromancer not only wanted him to be at the forefront when fighting, but also asked him to help with bathing on weekdays.
And there were many deviant behaviors during this period!
It suspected that the necromancer was molesting it, but it had no evidence, and it had no ability to resist because it had signed a contract.
Every time I meet it, it comes to me to discuss how to pout the Necromancer.
Unfortunately, it failed in the end.
The last time I saw it was after a terrible battle.
At that time, it almost lost all the bones in important parts of its body.
I was very worried about its condition, but it smiled and told me that there was good news - at least it was riddled with holes now, and the old man wouldn't let him take care of him for a bath in this situation, right?
Later facts proved that it was right, but only partly right.
That damned necromancer really didn't molest it anymore.
Instead, he removed all the bones from its body in front of it and distributed them to other skeletons.
The extra bones were broken down into bone powder, and even the last soul fire was used by him to light the lamp.
How abominable!
Ah, I'm sorry, I said a little too much, but I want to say one more thing -
Thank you, Matthew!"
…
Matthew listened quietly.
"I think what I did should be the bottom line for a person with a conscience, so you don't need to thank me extra, Peggy."
"But what I'm curious about is, how did you know the final fate of your friend?"
Paige hesitated for a moment, her soul fire wavering a little:
"Well, maybe I have telepathy with it? Anyway, I saw those scenes when it was dying.
It's really scary. I thought that becoming an undead creature would stop me from fearing death, but that's not the case.
I'm still afraid of losing my sense of self.
Every time I think back to the scene I saw at that time, I feel terrified..."
Speaking of which.
Paige's soul fire suddenly flickered violently.
Her voice also trembled violently.
Matthew's expression changed, and he quickly put a hand on Peggy's back:
…
"Hey, Paige, stop remembering the bad things!
Do you still remember what I said to you when I took you out of the golden pit?
We will do it!
I now have a good relationship with the spirit of nature, and even the Moonlight Goddess has given me blessings.
I think I'm on the right path!
It only takes time to solve the mystery that troubles you.
But before that, you must be strong, you cannot be trapped by yourself!"
…
Matthew said while trying to calm Paige's turbulent emotions.
He gently hugged Paige's cold frame.
A fierce sadness flooded into Matthew's mind.
He gritted his teeth and supported Peggy with firm will.
This picture should be beautiful.
Unfortunately, there is a height difference between the two, so their style of painting is somewhat inconsistent.
…
a long time.
Paige was finally freed from that intense, sad emotion.
"Thank you, Matthew, for helping me again."
Paige's soul fire gradually stabilized, and her tone returned to calm:
"The terrible feeling just now has not happened for more than a year. I thought I had got rid of that nightmare, but it still hasn't let me go."
Matthew was used to this situation.
When he first signed Paige, he would get sick almost every other week or so.
Later, Matthew brought her to live in the main material realm, and she slowly got better.
"What kind of picture did you just see?"
Matthew asked softly.
"It's almost the same as last time. There are countless tauren corpses on an endless grassland. The ground is black and the grass is dripping with blood."
Peggy narrated in a calm tone.
"Maybe that's the most profound memory you have during your lifetime."
Matthew speculated.
"maybe."
Paige's mood recovered quickly, and she even took the initiative to make a joke about Matthew:
"You hugged me too tightly and strangled me!"
Matthew subconsciously let go quickly, then reacted and looked at Peggy angrily and amusedly.
"Oh, Matthew, you are so gentle."
Paige smiled proudly:
"But to be honest, I'm really touched. If I hadn't been dead, I would have wanted to marry you!"
Matthew was about to answer.
Just at this moment.
The two of them felt a shocked gaze staring at them at the same time.
Matthew looked sideways.
"You, have you reached the stage of discussing marriage?"
Ella said in disbelief.
…
…
Kuangse Insect Nest, fourth floor.
After a not too fierce battle, the skeleton soldiers were cleaning the battlefield slowly.
But Matthew looked seriously at the sluggish Ella next to him - this stubborn spirit of nature was forcibly taken away from the post by Matthew after ripening a quarter of the oak seeds.
If not, he was worried that the other party would die suddenly in his greenhouse tonight.
"feel better now?"
Matthew asked with concern.
"Much better, don't underestimate the recovery ability of the natural soul!"
Ella replied weakly.
But her mental state was much better than when she first entered the cave.
Moonglade is her home.
Here, her consumed energy and energy will be quickly replenished.
"That's good." Matthew considered his words:
"Actually, the scene you saw before was a misunderstanding..."
Ella suddenly became excited.
"Matthew, you're not going to kill someone and silence them, are you?!"
She looked at each other nervously:
"The goddess will be watching you!"
Matthew rubbed his temples and said helplessly:
"I will never wait until now to silence myself!"
Ella let out a sigh of relief:
"That's good, that's good.
Don't take it too seriously, Matthew, I understand - no, I don't!
But I know that there are indeed many necromancers who have feelings for their summons.
I have to say that according to the beauty standards of the tauren, Peggy is an out-and-out beauty, at least she has great bones!"
Speaking of which.
She paused for a long time, then suppressed a certain emotion and said:
"I will bless you."
Matthew slapped his forehead and thought, "I can't clean it up."
"Master...Master, I have a hard-shell turf..."
Suddenly, intermittent thoughts came from A Bing's side.
Matthew's heart moved.
He avoided the pile of corpses of those infected with Kuangse on the left side of the road.
Came to the other side where A Bing was.
it's here.
Lying there was the body of a human infected person that had been disemboweled. It looked like the injury was caused by A Bing's own hands.
There was a hard-shell notebook on the body, which probably fell out of the infected person's pocket.
There are hundreds of gold coins scattered near the book, which means that the infected person was once very wealthy.
Matthew didn't come near.
In the hierarchical division of labor of the Kuangse Zerg, the average infected person is only stronger than the larvae crawling out of the insect sac, but there are often more than a dozen larvae parasitizing an infected body.
After killing them, they must be disposed of properly to avoid future troubles.
"Bing, bring the book here."
Matthew ordered.
A Bing complied without hesitation.
puff!
A larva suddenly emerged from the infected person's eye socket and jumped straight to A Bing's thigh bone.
Whoosh!
The sword shadow flashed.
Ah Bing cut the larva into two pieces accurately in mid-air.
at the same time.
He also completed the squatting action to pick up.
Matthew took the notebook, wiped the blood and pus on the cover with a rag, and then looked at it carefully.
The size of the notebook is only slightly larger than Matthew's hand.
Its cover is a pattern made of gold powder, which looks a bit like some kind of cuneiform writing.
Matthew felt that this pattern looked familiar, but he couldn't recall it for a while.
He opened the cover.
However, the first words with blood stains made his body tremble——
…
"The Empire ordered us to study psychic powers on the Dawn, but terrible bugs destroyed everything..."
…
What moved Matthew was not the content.
But the word 'empire' finally sparked an association in his mind.
He finally understood why the pattern on the cover looked familiar!
"Is this the logo of the Antu Empire? I remember that the Antu Empire was the big villain in the previous game - almost all the monsters in the copies are related to their laboratories scattered across the universe!"
Matthew's heart was filled with emotions.
His previous judgment was correct. He had indeed traveled into the game world, at least in the same multiverse!
