"At first I thought he just had an itchy skin, but I didn't expect that he really couldn't eat anything!"
"When my whip is struck on the undead, it can weaken the opponent's soul fire. Most undead cannot withstand three or five blows."
"But this guy is different. I can feel that he is obviously afraid of my whip. During several disciplines, I almost took his soul away, but he still did not bow to me!"
"If it was a bitch in the wild, I would have beaten him to death long ago, but considering that he is your private property, Lord Matthew, I came here specifically to report it. If you also think that this guy is reckless, then I
Beat him to death immediately to prevent him from getting in your eyes!"
Aren’t you afraid of zombies that are running out of souls?
Matthew suddenly became interested.
He stretched out his hand to signal the coolie mother to stop whipping, then walked a few steps over and looked up and down at the lonely zombie.
This guy does have a bit of pride.
Facing Matthew's appraising eyes.
He actually raised his chin slightly, with an expression of pride and contempt...
This was the first time Matthew saw such a vivid expression on an undead person other than Peggy.
If something goes wrong, there must be a monster.
Matthew realizes this zombie has something to do with it!
As soon as he felt it, he opened his mouth and said:
"He's not a cemetery zombie!"
This aloof zombie does not have a cemetery contract, which means that this thing got into Matthew's team of donors in Cross City!
Is it intentional?
Or was it an unconscious move?
Matthew examined the zombie, who was not afraid to look at him. After a few seconds, his left eyeball accidentally popped out due to being too tight.
The zombie was stunned for a moment.
Then he slowly bent down, picked up the eyeball from the ground, then stretched out his stiff tongue and licked it until all the sand and stones on the eyeball were licked clean, before he stuffed it back into his eye socket.
"Could it be the zombies that formed automatically during the Cross City disaster?"
"But he obviously doesn't have enough spirituality..."
Matthew decided that this zombie must be something special.
In the end, it was also at the level of a soldier.
"come here!"
Matthew tried to use the necromancer's corpse control technique to communicate with the other party.
However, the other party remained motionless.
Considering that we are still in Cross City, although there are not many people around, it is not a quiet place to do business.
Matthew did not intend to continue the stalemate with this zombie.
"Send him to the cemetery first!"
"Keep Renesmee locked up!"
After Matthew gave the order, he planned to register the zombie on the stone monument in the cemetery to give him a basic identity.
Who knows in this process.
Matthew's summoning of the dead failed!
…
"Tip: The aloof zombie rejected your recruitment invitation!
Your summoning of the dead has failed!
Should I instead consume a contract slot and recruit aloof zombies in the form of a contract?"
…
Matthew almost lost his temper.
just you?
A level 2 zombie?
Even if you are dragged away while alive, all living beings will be equal after death.
Of course he doesn't want to spend a contract slot to sign him.
"We really can't find a group of people to take him away!"
"By the way, where is Peggy? Let him come over and see this zombie..."
Matthew thought so.
Unwilling to give up, he tried to recruit aloof zombies in the name of the cemetery.
As a result, his recruitment invitation was thrown into the sea like a cow in the sea, and he never got a response.
Just when Matthew was about to take advantage of the situation.
Suddenly a familiar voice sounded beside him:
"Matthew, I finally found you!"
"Boss Luolan asked me to give this to you!"
The gap in the city wall next to it.
A black cat jumped in with agility.
He jumped to Matthew and opened his mouth. Matthew immediately bent down and picked up the painting.
"Eli? Is it you? Are you okay?"
Matthew looked happy.
Then he asked again:
"Loran is here too? Where is he now? Can I see him?"
Eli shook his head and said:
"Boss Luo Lan probably doesn't want to see anyone right now. His mood is a bit manic. Well, it's probably because he met the person in the painting. Why don't you open it and take a look?"
Matthew glanced at Eli in surprise and opened the painting.
When the person in the painting appeared in front of Matthew.
He only felt that the pores all over his body shrank violently.
This is... Isabel?
Matthew stared at the woman in the painting.
The white hair looking back, the indifferent expression, the beautiful face... This is of course a portrait of the teacher.
But in Matthew's perception.
This seems to be more than just a simple portrait.
Rather...
A record of some historical moment?
Matthew's heart moved.
The next second.
The woman in the painting seemed to come alive and glanced at him lightly.
Just that moment.
A mixture of pain, loneliness, pride, despair, madness... and countless other emotions poured into Matthew's mind.
His temples were throbbing.
The eye sockets instantly became red and swollen.
Fortunately, after a few seconds.
This uncomfortable feeling disappeared.
Snap.
Matthew closed the picture with force.
During this process, he couldn't help but shed big tears one after another from the corners of his eyes.
inside the body.
There is also a force that is awakened inadvertently!
…
"Tip: You browsed a handed down painting "Isabel of the Cross City", and your willpower and related resistance were slightly improved;
Your field resonates with the paintings handed down from generation to generation——
You have gained enlightenment in the field of magic, and your mana has increased by 1/5!"
…
Matthew suddenly looked shocked.
What kind of painting is this?
I actually increased my mana by 1/5 just by looking at it?
Looking at the painting, the person who wrote it was clearly Luo Lan.
Matthew didn't know whether to say Isabel was awesome or Lorraine was awesome.
And at the same moment.
The moment Matthew opened the scroll.
A trivial response was also introduced into Matthew's spiritual world.
…
"Tip: The aloof zombie accepted your recruitment and became a part of the cemetery!"
…
"Huh? Was the recruitment successful?"
Matthew raised his eyebrows.
This zombie's reaction was really weird. He had already sent out the recruitment, but only now did he get a response.
It can’t be that the delay is too high, right?
Judging from the opponent's neat performance of picking up eyeballs just now, it shouldn't be too slow to react.
Could it be because of this painting?
Matthew's heart moved. He held the scroll and walked towards the aloof zombie. But this time, the latter finally lowered his proud head.
But Matthew also noticed.
In front of Isabel's painting, all the undead had similar reactions, including Mussage, the mother of coolies, who showed a look of fear.
As Matthew approaches.
She even knelt on her knees, trembling all over, and even threw the whip aside!
In comparison.
The aloof zombie behaved quite decently!
"Let's go, you go back to the cemetery first!"
Matthew put the scroll behind his back and gave orders to the undead.
At that moment, he restarted the teleportation tombstone and asked the Coolie Mother to take the undead home first.
After all, the disaster has passed, and continuing to allow so many undead to stay in Cross City may cause panic.
As for this zombie, Matthew has marked it carefully.
Let's study it carefully after he gets home.
After dealing with the undead matter.
Matthew looked at Eli again:
"Why don't you go back to your human form?"
The little black cat stuck out its tongue and answered the question incorrectly:
"Who is that beautiful lady in the painting?"
He looked a little ready to move.
Matthew immediately warned:
"It's someone you can't inquire about."
For the Alliance of Seven Saints, Isabel's identity is a very sensitive existence. Except for those within the alliance who know the details, most people rarely mention her.
As Isabel's student.
Matthew is not unqualified to educate Isabel, but considering Isabel's unique temper.
Matthew thinks it’s better to know less about Terra Tiger!
The little black cat suddenly showed dissatisfaction:
"Matthew, why are you hiding like Boss Luo Lan?"
Matthew smiled helplessly:
"When both of us choose to hide it, you should be able to know that this is a... very special woman. If you want to have her idea, I can only say that I respect her very much and hope you will do it well."
"But I'm very happy to see you here alive and kicking. I've been inquiring about your whereabouts recently. I thought that after the incident in Cross City was over, I would have to fight with the whale hunter organization, but I didn't expect you.
It’s good news that I’m back safely.”
Eli's voice also revealed a hint of embarrassment:
"Matthew, I'm sorry for worrying you."
"I did lose my hand due to my carelessness and was captured by the whale hunter's boss, but she also underestimated me, so I seized the opportunity to escape."
"Just on the way back to Cross City, I met Boss Luolan who was in a daze. Then we met a woman. Boss Luolan was scolded by the lady like a quail, and then he started to think about the article with a sad face.
wrote……"
Eli's narration level can only be said to be average.
But it is better than being true and detailed.
Just a few minutes.
Matthew then had a rough understanding of what this guy had been going through for more than a month.
It sounds ups and downs.
In fact, for more than a month, I spent about 3/4 of my time as a prisoner in the whale hunter organization.
Matthew looked at the size of the little black cat.
Looks like I'm a little fatter!
"It seems that whale hunters treat their captives quite well?"
Matthew joked.
Eli thought for a moment and replied seriously:
"Queen House is indeed not particularly bad. She is just a little crazy - actually not very crazy. As far as I understand, she is just looking for the treasures left behind by her family. This is related to their journey back to their hometown, so their
Some actions seem a bit radical."
"She is actually quite nice, and her breasts are quite big - no, she is also quite generous. I offended her several times, but she didn't punish me much. In short, I think the whale hunter's attack on Cross City was a misunderstanding
, when I return to the Underground Temple and meet the two great druids, maybe I can resolve the misunderstanding between the Earth Society and the Whale Hunter Organization!"
Matthew's expression looked a little strange.
He was about to ask Eli for more information about the Whale Hunters.
But at this moment.
The painting he was holding behind his back with both hands actually burned on its own!
It's strange to say.
It was obvious that the painting would spontaneously ignite without wind, but when Matthew touched these flames, he did not feel any warmth at all.
He wasn't burned at all!
Blah blah blah!
A breeze blew by.
in a blink.
Isabel's handed down paintings automatically burned into pieces of ashes.
Part of the ashes fell from Matthew's fingertips.
He couldn't help gathering more ashes with his hands.
Just at this moment.
A small flame jumped from the ashes.
Immediately afterwards.
Matthew saw an extremely miniature statue in the ashes!
The statue is made of black and white.
Hair as white as a waterfall.
It was as dark as coagulated blood.
Exquisite and charming face.
Extremely calm expression.
Matthew looked stunned——
Is this thing a figure of Isabel?
He glanced at the data column.
I found it was full of question marks!
…
"Tip: You obtained the statue of the Dusk Watcher among the ashes!
Twilight Watcher "Isabel" (???):???"
…
"When Loren gave this painting to you, did he tell you anything else?"
Matthew held the mini statue in his hand and examined it.
He didn't even dare to touch it casually.
Otherwise there will always be a sense of blasphemy.
"No, he just said that I must give it to you and keep it well. By the way, he also said a joke before leaving."
Eli responded honestly.
"What a joke?"
Matthew asked.
"He said that many people worry about the end of the world when they encounter disasters, but is it actually possible that we are already in the end of the world, but we are just too small to notice it at all?"
Eli recalled:
"That's what he probably said. When he said these words, he seemed to be talking to himself, and also to me. I asked a few questions, and he said he was bored to death and told me to get out.
gone."
Is that so?
Matthew's face looked thoughtful.
He realized that Isabel and Loren should have reached some kind of tacit understanding.
Otherwise, with Isabel's ability and temperament.
There is no chance that this handed down painting will ever appear.
As for what the statue turned into after it was burned out.
I can only wait until I meet Luo Lan to ask again.
Now Matthew put the things away properly.
Then he looked at Eli again:
"So, the leader of the whale hunter organization punished you by using psychic energy to stabilize your wilderness form?"
Eli nodded honestly.
Matthew bent down and picked him up gently, then walked to the side:
"It's okay, I know a folk remedy that can solve this kind of psychic command."
His steps are quick.
As he was talking, he came to a smelly ditch.
"etc!"
Eli struggled before he could open his mouth.
Matthew calmly pushed the little black cat down into the ditch:
"Please bear with it!"
"Her psychic commands will disappear soon!"
Eli struggled in the ditch for a while, then shook his fur vigorously.
Matthew, who had the foresight to do so, quickly moved out of the way and calmly avoided the water droplets all over the sky.
"Loland has already tried this kind of folk remedy, but it doesn't work at all!"
The little black cat howled frantically.
But the next second.
A blue light suddenly flashed across its body.
Immediately afterwards.
Eli let out a sigh, and the black cat form was instantly released, and he quickly turned into a tall young man!
"It actually works?"
Eli stared:
"Is it because the moat that Boss Luolan took me to was not dirty enough?"
Matthew was just about to continue joking.
But the next second.
He turned around suddenly and looked behind a small door next to the ditch.
"may be."
"There is also a possibility that the lady you said is not too bad has already come to us."
Matthew calmly stared in that direction.
The next second.
A woman wearing tight-fitting soft armor, with a jet-black goggle over her eyes, and a large patch of snow-white exposed at her collar appeared in front of the two of them.
"Your perception is very keen, Tree Planting Mage."
There was an unpredictable smile in the woman's voice:
"I've heard some legends about you. You seem to be very famous in the south."
"Originally, I just wanted to talk to you about some things, but after we met, I changed my mind."
"Now that I already have a cat, I still need a dog."
"From now on, you and that little kitten are both my trophies!"
During the conversation.
She pointed her index finger gently at Eli, who flashed blue light.
Rub it in for a moment.
Eli once again turned into a helpless little black cat!
…
"Warning: You encountered the Queen of Giza and the leader of the Whale Hunter Organization House (LV23/Hero/Weakened Psychic)
Weakened psionic power (Knowledge - Psychic Power): As the Giza people who control psionic power, when they walk in the main material world, their power is affected by the psionic tide. The current psionic tide is at a low level, so House's
The strength has been weakened to about LV20."
…
"Quasi-legend? That's okay."
Matthew secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The psychic knowledge he had collected from the ruins of the star realm was put to use now.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to see clearly the depth of Queen House!
Matthew looked at it.
In addition to the psychic command of the original form.
Eli also has a very shallow psychic command: the slave spell.
This means that he can't resist the other party's orders at all!
"Matthew, run!"
The little black cat cried anxiously:
"Her power is very strange. After I lost the protection of the earth spirit, I had no way to resist!"
Matthew acted very calmly.
He quickly took out a wet tentacle and the inconspicuous alarm clock from the Miaofa bag.
And in this process.
The Queen of Giza's psychic command has already hit Matthew!
"Psychic Command: Slave Technique"!
When that terrible blue light hit Matthew.
He couldn't help but feel a sense of surrender in his heart.
But this feeling only lasted a thousandth of a second.
Immediately afterwards.
A gentle force came from the two items in his hands, supporting his will to resist.
In an instant.
Queen House's psychic commands are ineffective!
"What is this?"
House was astonished:
"Could it be divinity? How is it possible? How could you have two copies..."
The words have not yet fallen.
Matthew's counterattack has arrived!
He patted the Miaofa bag with his right hand, then turned into a moon bear and ran straight towards House!
Moon bears are very fast.
The distance between the two sides was instantly shortened!
"You actually try to use the wilderness form to deal with it? Don't you know that spiritual energy is the best way to defeat nature?"
House, who had looked shocked just now, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this scene.
She took half a step back.
Activate a new psionic command "The Way Back"!
This is a command that can make the enemy go back to where they came from.
If it is possible for Matthew to be exempted from this command while holding two copies of divinity.
So now he is in the wilderness form, and he is defeated by psychic commands, and there is no possibility of a comeback!
But at this moment.
A shadow suddenly flew behind Queen House.
Immediately afterwards.
A shrill howl sounded in her ears——
"ah--!"
The ghost A Piao released by Matthew in advance arrived in time.
When the latter's ability "cry for life" resounded in this space.
Queen House's psychic command suddenly collapsed!
At this moment.
She suddenly became extremely nervous deep inside.
She didn't understand why the man in front of her knew so much about psychic powers!
Doesn’t it mean that the mages of the Seven Saints Alliance have never studied psychic powers at all?
Such thoughts quickly flashed through her mind.
Facing the attack of ghosts.
She instinctively wanted to move her position, but the moon bear had already pounced on her aggressively.
Snapped!
Matthew slapped the Queen of House on the upper body without mercy.
This time she almost fell apart without being photographed!
That is to say, the people of Giza have been exposed to the radiation of cosmic starlight, and their physical fitness has long mutated to the point where they are almost like the evil creatures in the astral realm.
Otherwise she would be nothing but a puddle of meat right now.
Rao is so.
Matthew also heard the sound of House Queen's shoulder blade breaking.
Her whole body was knocked to the ground.
Matthew lay down directly.
Hold her down firmly.
"Suck it!"
he ordered.
Ah Piao didn't hesitate, opened her mouth, and began to display her ghost characteristics, sucking up House's energy, stamina, and concentration!
"No no no..."
"Wait, I was wrong, I'm here to seriously negotiate a deal with you!"
His whole body was almost crushed by Matthew.
Only then did House think of begging for mercy.
Unfortunately it's too late.
Ah Piao glanced at Matthew.
Matthew said firmly:
"Suck her dry for me!"
Ah Piao's eyes lit up, and he immediately started with all his strength. Eight minutes later, House kicked off his legs, tilted his mouth, his tongue hung out, and his saliva drooled all over the floor.
"Fainted?"
Matthew carefully checked the other party's condition.
He knew that psychic masters were hard to guard against, so to be on the safe side, he had to keep A Piao's eyes on him at all times.
It sounds like House is unlucky.
If she meets someone else, she will definitely be able to handle them with her powerful psychic commands.
But what she happened to meet was Matthew, who was probably the most psychic-savvy among the non-legendary wizards in the entire South!
The psychic knowledge that Ekmund originally extracted from the Abomination Laboratory.
Matthew didn't miss a single article.
Although these essences from the Antu Empire cannot be compared with the spiritual knowledge mastered by the Giza people.
This also mentions the three shortcomings, or restraints, found by the Antu Empire about psionic energy.
The first wave, a powerful wave!
Any form of wave with sufficiently powerful energy is enough to interrupt psychic commands.
Among them, sound waves are the most common.
Matthew's own death shock wave actually has a similar effect, but after all it is not as good as the death cry of the ghost A Piao.
Second, divinity!
The holder of divinity has powerful immunity abilities, including but not limited to charm, illusion, fear, deception, psionic power, etc.
This is one of the reasons why God is so powerful.
Divinity in a sense means the original nature of the universe.
It can provide powerful protection to the holder or owner.
Most of the psionic commands are control-type abilities.
Therefore, the natural is restrained by divinity.
Third, ghosts.
In fact, just as mages are easily restrained by ghosts, psionic users also need to focus to release psionic commands.
Once sucked dry focus.
They also can't do anything.
Therefore, psychic users are also very taboo about monsters like ghosts.
But in the actual process.
Psychic users also often develop many methods to target ghosts, and the two sides actually restrain each other.
The reason Matthew won so smoothly.
The main reason is that he has all three elements to resist psychic powers.
And when Ah Piao came out.
He successfully transformed into a moon bear and completely attracted House's attention.
This laid the foundation for A Piao's successful sneak attack!
"Overall, a perfect battle."
Matthew quickly reviewed it in his mind.
Eli on the side was almost dumbfounded.
After Queen House lost consciousness, Eli's psychic commands failed again, and he finally regained his freedom!
"Matthew, I haven't seen you for a while, you have become so strange."
Eli looked at him with complicated eyes:
"I thought you and I were just about equal in strength, but I didn't expect you to be able to subdue her easily!"
"He is worthy of being hailed as the 'legendary mentor' by the will of nature!"
Legendary mentor?
Matthew was slightly startled.
Over there, Eli seemed to realize that he had let something slip, and quickly changed the subject:
"Anyway, thank you Matthew, you helped me again and restored my freedom."
"I should have accompanied you to deal with this lady, but I have been away from the Dadi Society for too long, and suddenly I want to go back and have a look... Well, I'll leave Matthew first, and I'll come back to you after I've finished handling the matters in the Dadi Society.
you."
Said.
He ran away somewhat dejectedly.
Matthew looked at the other person's back with a thoughtful look on his face.
"The will of nature calls me the legendary mentor?"
"Is it the secret that Eli heard when he advanced last time?"
"But I don't even have a legend myself, so why should I guide it?"
He complained secretly.
Then he returned to his human form, picked up Queen House's body, and walked out of the city.
On a disaster relief ship.
In a darkly lit confinement room.
Throw a bucket of water down.
House spins leisurely.
Standing in front of her were Ah Piao, who had an ugly, ghostly face, and Matthew, who was handsome but had a cold expression.
"I only give you one chance. You must truthfully explain all the secrets of your whale hunter organization in this operation."
Matthew said bluntly.
House looked quite tough and sneered on the spot:
"There's no way I could tell you!"
"You don't think that a sneak attack can make me..."
boom!
A dull sound sounded.
House fell forward without saying a word.
A Bing, who was standing behind him, slowly put away a stick.
"I gave you a chance."
Matthew said to the unconscious House with a happy expression:
"Since you have such a strong backbone, you can only hand it over to professionals..."
Half an hour later.
Hesso penitentiary.
Warden's Office.
Matthew and A Bing walked in one after another, with the latter carrying an unconscious woman on his shoulders.
See this scene.
Warden Alexander smiled happily:
"Still the same as last time?"
Matthew thought for a while:
"I'll have to add some weight this time."
Alexander immediately showed an expression of understanding.
He skillfully photographed a detailed project list in front of Matthew:
"Please take your pick."
"Heisuo Mountain can always give you the best service."
"But having said that, do you still remember the woman you trained last time?"
"She was kidnapped by the blue dragon in the desert, and then somehow she became the blue dragon's magic consultant, and she was very successful in the desert territory."
"But that blue dragon wasn't too stupid. After the story of your dragon slaying spread throughout the south, he secretly investigated the origin of that woman. After learning that it was related to you, he sent her back without stopping.
."
"I was planning to contact you about how to deal with it, but I didn't want you to come to the door on your own, so should I lock them together?"
