Facing Rhaegar's actions, Eli instinctively wanted to fight back, but at the critical moment he restrained himself. His intuition told him that the man in front of him did not seem to have any malicious intentions.
He frowned and thought about the meaning of Rhaegar's question.
Then he shook his head and said:
"no."
Rhaegar was a little surprised.
It was well known that Matthew was liked by girls, and he thought that Eli, like himself, belonged to the family of a "victimized girl".
"Feel sorry."
Realizing that he had lost his composure, Rhaegar let go of his hand, then sighed and said:
"I really envy you."
"You don't know how popular that necromancer is with underage girls. If you have a daughter, please be sure to keep a close eye on her, otherwise you may regret it later!"
Eli's lips moved slightly.
In the end, he said truthfully:
"The one who just came in is my girlfriend."
Rhaegar's eyes widened.
The two men on the roof fell into a dead silence.
…
In Matthew's living room.
The atmosphere was also a bit weird at first.
When two young women of different stature and appearance appear in a closed space, several rounds of meaningful eye contact are inevitable.
soon.
Xifu smiled sweetly:
"Matthew, do you have any guests? Let's talk first. Paige and I will go to the kitchen."
Said.
She actually took Peggy's arm with great ease.
The two went to the kitchen in an affectionate manner.
Not long after.
There was also a silver bell-like laughter coming from the direction of the kitchen.
Samantha withdrew her gaze and said curiously:
"Are all human little girls today so courageous?"
Matthew shook his head and smiled:
"Sif is just an exception."
As he spoke, he poured another glass of milk for Samantha himself.
"I came to you today because of what you said that day."
Samantha got straight to the point:
"At first I didn't think what you said was right, but your words reminded me of a friend I once had."
She took a sip of milk, pressed her lips together to wipe away the foam, and her beautiful face showed a deep look of reminiscence:
"Actually, someone said something similar to me a long time ago, but I was too young at that time and lacked knowledge of the world."
"I thought about it carefully later. Although you are a necromancer, you really don't look like a bad person;
That day in the insect nest, I saw you transform into a raven. That was not the ability of a mage. It was the wild form that only us druids have;
And no matter how bad the situation is, it is impossible for the Moonlight Goddess to grant the title of Moonwalker to a person who has nothing to do with a druid——
It was these thoughts that prompted me to come to you. I want to know if you can really master the abilities of the two realms of nature and immortality at the same time?"
Matthew smiled slightly when he heard this:
"Sorry, this is my secret."
Samantha suddenly blushed.
She seemed a little embarrassed:
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to pry into your secrets, I just... I just wanted to confirm something."
Matthew crossed his hands and rested his chin:
"Why don't we talk about your friend first? If nothing else, he is the biggest reason why you came to me, isn't he?"
He originally thought that Samantha came to him because she was impressed by his wonderful argument, but he didn't expect it to be for another reason. This made Matthew feel slightly frustrated and curious about what kind of friend would make him
A conservative druid like Samantha dares to break through her own shackles and come to her for verification?
Samantha was silent for a while.
a long time.
She then said slowly:
"Okay, about this friend of mine, let's start with my hometown. My hometown is a village next to the sea. My parents and other adults in the village all make a living by fishing.
That village - I actually don't have much memory. I don't know why. I was nine or ten years old at that time, but my memory of my hometown is so vague.
I just remember one day, everyone in the village ran out to watch the fun, and my mother pulled me over. It was on a rocky shoal, and we saw a huge, magnificent ship on the shore.
, majestic, exquisite building ship - no words I can use can express my shock when I saw that ship for the first time.
It is like the armor of a god, making people feel awe when looking at it.
There is also a flag with gold rim and black background and gold letters erected on the keel of the building ship. The pattern on it is also very beautiful.
No one in the village has ever seen such a flag.
Many years later.
I just found it in the library of Jade Cangting.
That is the flag of the Soviet Union."
Speaking of which.
Samantha paused and stared at Matthew with a strange look:
"Do you know Su Country?"
Matthew quickly read the emotions in Samantha's eyes.
That emotion is called expectation.
"Sorry, I don't know."
Matthew just felt that the word Su country did not seem to conform to the common language habits of this continent.
"All right."
Samantha's eyes flashed with fleeting disappointment:
"People in most places in Irondor know very little about the Su Kingdom. After I became a druid, I frantically searched for traces of the Su Kingdom for a while. Unfortunately, it was really difficult.
I only know that the country of Su is on the other side of the endless ocean. Starting from the Gem Coast, there are three ways to find that legendary country: heading north all the way over the eternal ice fields and desolate roads, and passing through the barren and dangerous Far East.
, there will be a chance to reach the northern part of Su country;
To go south, you need to go southeast after arriving at Sawtooth City, traversing Mount Doom, Voodoo Swamp and Barbarian Fang Peninsula along the way. It is said that you will have a chance to reach the south of Su Country.
The last option is to cross the endless ocean by boat.
In short, that country is very remote, mysterious, rich, and powerful.
do you know?
The leaders of the Su Kingdom master a legendary profession called "Emperor". They combine their own magic power with the veins of the earth, and can release unrivaled power with every movement of their hands. The Su people say that he is the son of a real dragon.
incarnation.
The emperor's wife usually gets a legendary profession called "Queen". Legend has it that she can communicate with the phoenix above the nine heavens and also has powerful energy.
The emperor, empress and their ministers guarded the land of Su.
But on the border of the Soviet Union, in the endless gaps of the abyss, there are always demons watching. In order to fight against these demons, emperors of all dynasties built a vast and magnificent magical wonder - the Great Wall.
It is said that even the shortest part of each section of the Great Wall is more than 300 meters!
The emperor often visits the Great Wall to fight against the demons in the abyss. The mages under his command are all powerful characters. They also have a special advanced profession "Great Wall Mage".
It is said that the Great Wall Mage can use the power of the Great Wall to cast spells. Ten 17th-level Great Wall Mage can jointly release large-scale destructive spells with legendary power.
Of course, the queen also has her own mage group, but their special advancement is called "Jade Phoenix Mage". It is said that their power comes from the phoenix that signed a contract with the queen..."
…
When Samantha recounted this, there was a clear light in her eyes.
Matthew listened quietly, but his heart was not at peace.
According to her description, how come this country of Su looks so much like a magically modified version of ancient China?
Wait until Samantha finishes.
Matthew said with a fascinated look on his face:
"It's really an amazing country. So, what was your friend telling you just now?"
Samantha nodded:
"I believe you have guessed it. My friend came from a building ship. He told me that their ship encountered a sea monster while traveling in the deep sea. In order to avoid the sea monster's pursuit, they had to change their direction. In the end,
The ship was forced to dock due to excessive damage."
Speaking of which.
She suddenly laughed at herself:
"To say we were friends may have been wishful thinking on my part. Maybe in his eyes, I was just a greedy little girl who loved to listen to stories.
He was the captain's son, three years older than me. There were countless snacks on their ship, each of which was an eye-opener for me at that time.
He took me secretly on the boat and went to his father's room to use the star mirror - it was a mirror that could see very far away and very clearly. He also told me how they were in the deep sea.
Fighting against giant monsters over 300 meters in size...
These things were like a dream to me at that time.”
Matthew was moved:
"you like him?"
Samantha waved her hand:
"That's just the unrealistic fantasy of a precocious girl."
"He played with me for probably more than two months. Then one day, they left quietly, just like when they arrived."
"I only remember the night before he set off. He got off the boat and brought me a lot of snacks. He told me that they were going to sea to find a secret left by a legendary great mage from the Soviet Union in the endless ocean.
Hidden, as long as you find that secret treasure, you can gain a new path——
It allows people to control the power of life and death at the same time.
He said that when he found the secret, he would come to me and share it with me.
One winter later, the village was destroyed by bandits, so I joined the Moonlight Society and became a druid.
Of course he never came back.
Sometimes I am not sure whether that magnificent black ship was a dream I had when I was young."
Speaking of which.
Samantha's eyes were full of memories.
The living room was quiet for a long time.
"So you came to me just to know if the secret treasure your friend mentioned exists?"
Matthew asked.
Samantha nodded, then shook her head painfully:
"I would rather it didn't exist, otherwise it would be difficult for me to continue to face my faith."
Matthew heard this and said seriously:
"Your faith should be in nature, not in gods who have partial authority over nature."
Said.
He stood up and stretched out his hand to Samantha:
"Give me your hand."
Samantha hesitated.
Finally he put his hand on Matthew's palm.
…
On the roof.
Rhaegar only felt a violent beast roar coming from his ears.
A strong wind blew through.
The wild man rushed into Matthew's garden at an alarming speed.
"Let her go!"
Eli roared angrily and tried to break through the window.
But the next second.
A mighty force spread from Matthew's body.
The warm breeze comes from all directions.
The house seemed to disappear.
Instead.
It’s a warm and friendly oak forest!
Under an oak tree.
Matthew and Samantha stood palm to palm.
And Eli.
His attacking movement was interrupted by the power of the domain.
He looked around blankly.
suddenly.
An incredible roar came from his mouth!
Five seconds later.
The oak forest twisted and disappeared.
…
"You activated the Oak Domain, and Druid Samantha sensed the Oak Domain with your help. From now on, she will have the opportunity to understand the power of this domain;
Druid Ilai accidentally broke into your oak domain, and with his super talent, he will also have the opportunity to understand the power of this domain."
…
"ah?"
Matthew turned his head and looked at the window next to him in surprise.
Outside the window.
Eli's face was extremely distorted, and his eyes were a little grateful, a little painful, and in short, very complicated.
"Eli!"
Samantha stamped her feet angrily.
Eli opened the window and gritted his teeth and said:
"Let go of your hands first."
Samantha ignored him and looked at Matthew:
"I didn't expect you to actually have the power of life, but you shared the Oak Domain with me, it must be more than just for show. What do you want me to do for you?"
Eli's eyelids twitched.
However, under Samantha's murderous gaze.
In the end, he couldn't interrupt.
"Su Guo."
Matthew took out his hand: "I want to know all the information about the Su country. If possible, I also want the secret information."
Samantha nodded:
"You'll get what you want next time we meet."
Eli finally couldn't bear it anymore:
"There's still a next time!?"
Whoosh!
Samantha transformed into a leopard and threw him to the ground.
In an instant.
She turned into a brown bear again and quickly dragged Eli out of the town.
"I'm sorry, Samantha, I didn't intentionally break the agreement, I just couldn't control myself. I was always worried that you would be deceived by that necromancer."
Facing the angry Samantha, Eli seemed a little submissive.
"That's enough. Eli, I don't want to talk to you too much about this topic. We may have had a good conversation for a while, but your possessiveness makes me feel suffocated. I am an independent individual.
, I have my own mind and judgment, and I know exactly what I am doing."
Samantha put her hands on her hips:
"Put it away, we're done."
Eli looked at each other in disbelief:
"Did you drive me away because of him?"
There was a hint of pity in Samantha's eyes:
"In your eyes, I can't have my own will? Everything I do is for others? You disappoint me so much. Goodbye, Ancient Tiger."
As she spoke, she turned into a leopard again.
After walking out for a few steps.
She turned back and warned:
"If you let me know that you dare to go to Mr. Matthew, you know what will happen."
The leopards fluttered and disappeared into the night.
Eli stretched out a hand lonelyly, as if doing so could restore that strong figure.
There was a fierce flame burning in his chest.
He stayed there for about ten minutes.
Suddenly he roared, transformed into a tiger and ran tirelessly. Only in this way could he temporarily forget the pain.
But running and running.
He actually came to the oak forest north of the town.
He who had just sensed the oak realm would certainly not be unfamiliar with this place.
This is the source of the Necromancer's domain!
Instinctively, he raised his claws to chop down an oak tree.
But when the critical moment comes.
He put away his paws again:
"I can't vent my anger on a tree."
He muttered to himself quietly.
"Maybe Samantha was just angry for a moment. I shouldn't have distrusted her. That Necromancer actually controlled the power of the Oak Domain. She was sure she had discovered something, and then she went to visit him. Maybe I almost broke her
It's normal for her to be angry about big things."
"If I beg her a few more times, she will probably relent."
Unconsciously.
He walked to the northern part of the oak forest.
Eli suddenly stopped.
There is a dangerous smell in the air ahead.
"You are still so sharp, little tiger."
A charming female voice came from behind a stone.
Eli growled.
But I saw a slender black panther walking out gracefully.
"Kuna?!"
Eli said warily.
The black panther approached slowly.
She even walked up to Eli and tried to scratch the tiger's chin with her paws.
But this action was dodged by Eli.
"What's wrong, little tiger? Are you not happy that your little girlfriend dumped you?"
Black Panther chuckled:
"Then you should let your sister take good care of you. After all, this is not the first time between you and me, right?"
"Shut up, Kunna!"
Disgust flashed in Eli's eyes:
"I was young and ignorant at that time, so I was seduced by you, and I didn't know at the time that you had become a member of the Blight Order. Our relationship now is a mortal enemy!"
"Get out of here before I plan to kill you!"
The tiger roared again and again.
The strong murderous intention solidified like substance.
The black panther wanted to tease him a few words, but when he saw this, he ran away with a few leaps:
"What a little tiger who doesn't understand taste!"
Eli stared coldly in the direction where the other party disappeared.
His mind has not become unclear due to lovelorn.
"Kunna appears here. There must be other members of the Blight Order nearby. What are they doing in this town? The only forest nearby is this oak forest!"
Eli walked in the woods, thinking little by little:
"The Blighters want to attack Oak Grove? No, there must be something worse."
"No, I can't sit idly by. The oak tree is innocent - the necromancer's field just now has benefited me a lot. Even to repay this favor, I have to stop the conspiracy of the Blighters!"
Just think of this.
Eli made a big decision in his mind.
He will stay in the oak forest to guard this place.
He's not leaving!
…
Matthew's living room.
"Eh? Did that big sister with a good figure just go out through the window?"
Faced with Sif's doubts.
Matthew smiled and explained: "She is a druid."
"That's it..."
Sif put her hands behind her back, her expression unusually shy:
"Matthew, I came here today mainly to thank you for your life-saving grace."
Matthew was stunned for a moment:
"Didn't you already thank me?"
He was already thinking about how to refuse Sif's next visit.
But the next second.
Sif quickly took out a delicate and compact luggage from behind and handed it to Matthew.
"Last time I thanked you verbally, this time I brought a gift."
Sif's eyes sparkled:
"You won't reject me, right?"
Matthew stared at the bag in his hand, unable to say any words of rejection!
…
"Magic Bag (Super Edition): 12 slots in the shortcut bar/5 cubic meters of basic storage space/zero weight/increased movement speed
…
Attached spell: Biscuit spell (can automatically generate 10 biscuits every day as food rations)"
…
"How much does this cost?"
Matthew asked in a hoarse voice.
"1,400 gold coins." Sif said frankly: "This made me spend all the pocket money I had before I was 15 years old, but it doesn't matter, I will be 16 soon, and my father will give me a large amount of pocket money again."
"I can't have it, it's too expensive."
Matthew said with a troubled expression.
"My life is worth more than 1,400 gold coins!" Sif said with a smile:
"And I have already bought it. You also know the situation in Rolling Stone Town. There are not many mages at all, and no one else can use it. Just accept it!"
Matthew looked troubled.
A phantom rushed over from the kitchen and snatched the luggage.
"I accepted it for him!"
Peggy said loudly.
Matthew stared at her fiercely:
"You told her that I really wanted a better suitcase?"
Peggy spread her hands:
"I said you just wanted an enhanced version, the one with 500 gold coins. Who knew she bought the super version."
Sif spread her hands:
"Anyway, the gift has been given out, so you can't stuff it back to me!"
As she spoke, she sat lazily on the sofa.
Matthew sighed and said:
"Okay, okay, thank you for your kindness. I really need this. Thank you, Sif."
Sif blinked:
"Everyone wants you to go back to class - I am very interested in the history you tell, but it is impossible for me to read the book!"
Matthew shook his head helplessly:
"I really don't have time for class recently, but if you need it, I can give you some lectures alone."
"OK."
Sif straightened up from the sofa:
"Starting from the "Hundred Cities Enfeoffment", you didn't tell me last time how the Seven Saints Alliance controlled the hundred city-states."
Matthew nodded.
He went back to the house and took out a thick history book.
Then he sat in front of Sif and explained to her.
…
Outside the living room window.
Rhaegar, who was trying to hide in the haystack, listened to the conversation in the living room with a shocked face:
"Are you really just giving a lecture!?"
Just at this moment.
A carefree skeleton walked out of the kitchen door.
Rhaegar curled up.
The skeleton circled around the window sill and walked back again.
"Fortunately, it didn't find me."
Rhaegar was rejoicing.
Suddenly I heard this conversation coming from the house:
"Matthew Matthew! I have found a legal, safe, and highly profitable way to make money!"
"you say."
"You try to use your charm to seduce a few more underage girls to come to your home for classes, and then we can sell the tickets for the seats under the window sill at a high price!"
