Chapter 435 Negative Energy Heart and the Troll Princess’s Dowry
…
that moment.
Beside Matthew, except for himself and the two contracted undead, the souls of all the other units had been extracted from their bodies.
They howled miserably, gathered into a high-speed rotating vortex, then lingered around Matthew, and finally submerged into his body bit by bit.
Along with this terrifying spell.
The life energy in the hall has been extracted to the lowest point. In contrast, it is rich and extremely active negative energy!
He could feel it clearly.
I seem to be immersed in an endless sea of negative energy——
The gaps in the element layer are opened, and the properties of the material layer are also changed!
In an instant.
Sixteen negative energy fountains appeared around Matthew.
What surges in the fountain is the most essential negative energy.
They all flocked to Matthew.
It's as if the children have returned to their mother's arms.
Accompanied by this strange surge, the entire building trembled slightly.
for a while.
The wind was so strong in the hall that the others could hardly open their eyes.
The vibrations became more and more obvious.
Rumble!
Rumble!
Sounds like summer thunder came from the fountain.
All the negative energy, soul fragments and gray-white tentacles guarded Matthew's side.
Turn him into a veritable immortal king!
boom!
at some point.
The surging negative energy exceeded the critical value, and a hemispherical negative energy ripple exploded automatically, directly lifting the ceiling of the building upwards, and the surrounding pillars also broke.
Matthew was flying in all directions.
Dark clouds gathered quickly and descended slowly, as if an unprecedented storm was brewing.
Only he himself stood unmoved in the eye of the storm.
A shadow of the God of Death appeared behind him.
Compared to the Death Projection that was automatically summoned when the Undead Scourge was used previously, this phantom is much smaller in size, but it is uncompromising in terms of momentum.
Matthew didn't look back though.
But he could clearly sense that the shadow of the God of Death seemed to have become more spiritual.
He seemed to be watching himself.
In the eyes...
Is there any sense of relief?
Matthew didn't have time to think so much, but turned his attention back to his body.
now.
His body is undergoing a shocking change!
Countless negative energy, soul fragments and death tentacles were moving in and out of his body.
They are not just looking for a suitable outlet.
I am looking for a place of refuge!
For the Necromancer, this phenomenon is the best opportunity and must not be missed!
At that moment, Matthew changed his mind and started the "negative energy transformation" directly!
And this time.
The organ he chose to modify was the heart!
Matthew calmed down, concentrated, and used his mental power to control the direction of these negative energies.
slowly.
With Matthew's comfort, these slightly irritable negative energies found a suitable place to go.
They flocked to Matthew's heart.
Matthew's face flashed with blue light from time to time.
Occasionally he would show a hint of pain.
But this usually doesn't last long.
A few seconds later.
He will be able to adapt to this intensity of transformation, and then drastically promote the speed of negative energy transformation!
Three minutes later.
The negative energy storm that was almost out of control finally began to slow down.
Matthew stands in the eye of the storm.
He could feel the surging power pouring into his body.
now.
He felt that he had become stronger than ever!
…
"Hint: You have successfully completed the "Heart of Negative Energy Transformation"!
You gain the following features -
Immortal Heart (When your heart is destroyed by someone, you will not die, this will not even affect your normal actions, it will only limit the effectiveness and intensity of your spells or actions)
No longer decay (your body will no longer age or decay, it will only suddenly enter a state of death when your life comes to an end)
Negative energy channel (your heart becomes a communication bridge between you and the negative energy plane, and the speed at which you absorb negative energy is increased by 7 to 10 times the original)
Immediate Death Law (your probability of immediate death is increased by 10%)
Pseudo Undead (You gain a separate extra health value, the specific value of this health value is determined by the strength of the negative energy heart.
When your life as a living person is exhausted, you will not immediately enter the dying state, but will use the health of the pseudo-undead to continue fighting.
Only the enemy knocks both of your health points into near death.
Only then will you truly be close to death.
The current health of the pseudo-undead is one-third of the normal health)
Greedy Sucking (You can restore your health as a pseudo-undead by sucking negative energy)
Heart Ripping (You can dig out your own heart and throw it to the target area, and then you can detonate the heart to create a large explosion of negative energy.
Within the negative energy explosion area.
The effectiveness of your necromancy spells will reach an extremely high level.
special.
If you modify your lungs at the same time and throw the lungs and heart at the same time, it will be possible to produce additional linkage effects)
The Sorrow of the Living (The existence of the negative energy heart will continue to corrode your health as a living person, and the current erosion rate is about one percent per year)
Infinite Heart (when you lose a negative energy heart, you will grow a new negative energy heart within six months, during which you will suffer the corresponding weakness penalty)"
…
Matthew's eyes moved away from the dizzying array of data columns.
The enhancement given to him by the negative energy heart is still obvious.
The above nine effects.
It's almost all good for Matthew.
The only shortcoming caused by the negative energy heart is the possibility of constantly corroding the health of the living.
But for Matthew.
This shortcoming is not completely irreversible.
After all, he has now mastered the field of life, and with the case of Pale Hand before him, it doesn't seem too difficult to try to achieve balance in the heart.
"The heartbeat rate has slowed down, but each beat can provide more blood and negative energy..."
"It's not like I imagined that the negative energy in the heart will involuntarily penetrate into other parts of the body through the blood vessels."
"The negative energy leaving the heart is just some hairspring. I only need to use life energy to wash it regularly to complete the purification and hedging..."
for the results of this transformation.
Matthew was still quite satisfied.
at the same time.
Maybe it's because more organs in his body have been transformed by negative energy.
Matthew unknowingly started a new path——
…
"The Path of the Corpse Witch: Continue to use negative energy to transform your body, and you will become the most powerful life form among the pseudo-undead.
You are the living among the undead, and the immortal among the living.
You straddle the realms of yin and yang, playing with life and death.
To become a corpse witch and continue to transform more negative energy organs, the requirements are as follows——
The number of organs modified by severe negative energy exceeds 6;
Currently modified: right palm, heart."
…
Matthew clearly has no interest in becoming a wight.
But there is such a thing as a road.
If you hold it in your own hands, it can become a core technology that can be used to open up other people's special paths.
Moreover.
Matthew also has the status of an outsider clan leader, and the Corpse Witch path can enrich his career system and advancement routes.
The negative energy storm caused by the soul siphon gradually extinguished.
Matthew looked around.
The ground was full of corpses.
"What a terrifying spell..."
He glanced over and saw no trace of living people. There were nearly two hundred fish-men corpses lying on the ground.
There is also a very conspicuous guy among the murlocs.
The other corpses were lying upright on the ground.
Only this one was stubbornly half-kneeling on one knee on the ground.
When she died, her head was tilted up, her mouth was open, her eyeballs protruded violently, and she was holding a battle ax half the height of a person in her hand, looking like she was refusing to rest in peace.
At this time.
Only then did Matthew notice her——
“Where did the female troll come from?”
He was very puzzled.
But no matter what happened before, these people are dead.
Matthew weighed the golden knife in his hand.
The blade of Jaeger was more powerful than he expected.
He originally wanted to kill some of the murlocs and weaken the opponent's spirit, but he didn't expect to kill them all instantly.
He also killed a troll inexplicably.
at this point.
Matthew had no choice but to follow the principle of not wasting and quietly spread the realm of negative energy and the undead!
Matthew stands between two realms.
every moment.
A lot of knowledge poured into his mind.
These were things he couldn't realize when he opened the realm before.
Because this is the first time he has maintained a domain at the legendary level!
"hiss……"
"A lot of obscure knowledge is a bit beyond my ability to understand."
Matthew tried to regulate his breathing.
Although painful feelings emerged from the depths of his soul from time to time, he also tried his best to absorb knowledge in these fields like a sponge absorbing water.
For non-legendary strong men.
This knowledge is a priceless treasure!
Less than two minutes.
Matthew relaxed his nerves with some regret, and the surging information flow gradually weakened——
The amount of knowledge he initially absorbed is already huge enough. If he wants to obtain more, he may have to go further on the path of legend or maintain more fields.
So he stopped focusing on the field.
Instead, he slowly raised his hands:
"Slaves from darkness and cold, I command you in the name of Matthew, the Death Seeker -
stand up!
Work for me!"
Blade of Jaeger: Servant of Darkness!
Along with his solemn command, a faint white light appeared on the blade of Yeager.
Wisps of faint spirituality are injected into those empty shells that have lost their souls.
quickly.
Then two or three figures staggered up from the ground.
Not only were they filled with terrible negative energy, but there was also an irresistible chill.
Those are elements from the extreme cold realm!
This is one of the important characteristics of the Dark Servant.
The undead who are transformed into slaves of darkness are often affected by the extreme cold field and have some abilities that can slow down, freeze or frighten the enemy.
For a necromancer.
We are no stranger to extreme cold areas.
In the conventional sense, the three partners of death are "natural disasters", "killing" and "war".
Among them, the most common subfields in natural disasters are "plague" and "severe cold".
And "severe cold" and "extreme cold", "cold", "winter", "ice" and other fields are nested in each other.
These are all fields that necromancers are extremely eager to see.
Especially in extremely cold areas.
It is deeply involved in the realm of death, and it is also one of the realms that Matthew desires to obtain in the next stage.
He can feel it.
The Blade of Jaeger has the opportunity to get started in this field.
It's just that I haven't discovered it yet.
The Blade of Jaeger comes to mind.
Matthew recalled more -
Just now when I was using negative energy and soul fragments to transform my heart, I discovered that more soul fragments were pouring into Yeager's Blade.
"This guy seems to be stealing food?"
Matthew wasn't sure.
He just wanted to use his mental power to explore the inside of Yeager's Blade.
Just at this moment.
A sharp shout came from the direction of the garden:
"Damned Necromancer!"
"What did you do to my sister!?"
Matthew looked up.
But outside the ruins of the garden, a group of trolls rushed in quickly. Most of them were strong male troll warriors, but the leader was a slender female troll.
Matthew noticed.
Her appearance is quite similar to that of the female troll lying on the ground.
"They should have been in the garden just now."
Matthew speculated in his mind.
The negative energy storm just destroyed the entire building and also lifted the ceiling above Matthew's head.
At this moment, he was standing on the ruins of the hall, surrounded by the undead who were slowly getting up.
All traces of the murlocs have long since disappeared.
Matthew also couldn't find Claire and others.
Probably to escape the aftermath of the energy storm.
But even so.
Matthew is not afraid of these trolls either.
on the contrary.
He could see that these trolls were full of fear of him.
Except for a few brave troll warriors and the female leader, everyone else was subconsciously keeping a distance from Matthew.
And while they were talking.
The slaves of darkness transformed from the corpses of fishmen are constantly getting up from the ground.
Coupled with Matthew's overwhelming negative energy aura.
It's quite bluffing.
"She is your sister?"
Matthew looked directly at the jealous troll woman, and the tone he used to respond was very calm, as if he had just done a trivial thing:
"I guess you have never taught her not to break into a mage's casting range easily, right?"
The troll woman gritted her teeth eagerly:
"this is an accident!"
"Necromancer, you must return the soul of my sister Ricky Salvins immediately!"
"As long as you do this, we will leave and no longer trouble you."
"Otherwise, the Troll Kingdom and Armored City will not be able to spare you!"
As if to confirm her words.
The troll warriors who had been following her took out a white powder and applied it on their eyebrows, chin and behind both ears.
Matthew felt a slight tingling sensation.
He realized.
This white powder seems to have an extremely powerful restraint effect on soul-based spells such as soul siphoning!
He glanced at the troll female.
This woman also came prepared.
But Matthew would not give in. On the contrary, his tone became more cold and arrogant:
"Are you threatening me?"
"If you really want your sister to survive, you should beg me instead of giving me orders with a bad face and let your men point knives at me!"
"I've never been a bad-tempered person, but it's easy for me to kill a dying soul. Do you understand?"
Hearing such a blunt threat from Matthew.
Anne Salvins's face turned pale instantly.
Her body swayed slightly, as if she wanted to take action, but in the end, she gave up this risky plan.
Annie's thoughts were very confused.
Fear, fear, worry, regret and other emotions surged into her heart——
"She really shouldn't have been allowed to act recklessly!"
She and her sister Ruiqi have been fighting openly and secretly for many years, but their relationship has always been very good.
At least she didn't want to see her sister die like this.
In fact.
Along the way from the royal capital, Ironfortress, Annie had been taking good care of Ricky.
Ricky also listened to her very much.
Therefore, there were no troubles before.
Who would have thought that she, who was always cautious, would fall for this sinister mage disguised as a pretty boy in front of her!
However, the matter has come to this, and regret is of no use.
She must find a way to save Ricky's life!
Annie took a deep breath and her tone became much softer:
"I'm sorry, I was a little anxious just now."
"I am Annie Salvins, and my sister is Riki Salvins. We come from the Iron City in the north of the Helen Mountains. My sister Riki and I are both members of the royal family of the Troll Kingdom."
"I don't know what to call you?"
Troll royal family?
Matthew glanced at the other party suspiciously, but Anne's eyes were open and did not seem to be fake.
So he opened his mouth and said:
"Rolling Stone, Matthew."
Anne immediately showed a surprised expression:
"Are you that Matthew?"
Matthew said:
"you know me?"
Annie's eyes suddenly sparkled:
"I have heard of your name, the destroyer who makes all creatures in the star world fearful, the mysterious mage on the back of a bone dragon, the romantic lover with a colorful private life..."
"Stop it!"
Matthew corrected seriously:
"Some are rumors, don't believe them easily."
Then he looked behind Anne:
"Your people are staring at me so intently. This feeling makes me very uncomfortable."
"Let them move away first."
Anne didn't think much about it, and waved her hand directly for her men to retreat to the ruins of the garden.
Several troll warriors retreated slowly.
Only one person with a particularly upright posture was still hesitant.
"Holiday!"
"listen to me!"
Anne's tone was slightly serious.
The troll warrior took a few steps back unwillingly, but did not retreat into the garden ruins like the others.
Matthew didn't care about it.
He just looked at Anne calmly to see what the other party wanted to say.
Annie gathered some vocabulary and said:
"Mr. Matthew."
"I think it was just a misunderstanding. Ricky has no ill intentions towards you, and there is no essential conflict between you and us..."
However, her words were interrupted by Matthew.
Matthew asked with a surprised look on his face:
"You don't mean to say that he just rushed over to help me kill the fishmen, right?"
Anne wanted to say that.
But she couldn't say it.
She hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said:
"not like this."
"But Ricky really has no ill intentions towards you. She just likes you and wants to save you from the fish crowd..."
Matthew doesn’t take this approach:
"Rescue?"
"Then train him to be a male slave, right?"
Because of his previous experience of searching for ancient auras, Matthew was very familiar with the customs and traditions of the Troll Empire.
He knew very well that those who were rescued by these two powerful princess heroes might not live a very satisfactory life.
This time.
Anne didn't object.
She said calmly:
"No matter what, she didn't really hurt you. This is essentially a misunderstanding."
"You must have heard about the re-establishment of the Troll Kingdom."
"If you have the opportunity, you can go to the north and see for yourself. The current Iron City has grown into a behemoth that cannot be measured by mortals."
"I admit that you are strong and qualified to talk to the Salvins family on an equal footing."
"And I still say the same thing - there is no irreconcilable conflict between you and me."
"As long as you return Ricky's soul to me, and even bring her back to life, then we can completely put aside our past grudges, and even start in-depth cooperation."
"Our cooperation can not be limited to the Blood Drinking Mountain, but can also continue after returning to the material world."
"For an outstanding necromancer like you, I will personally recommend you to my father. The troll's background is unimaginable to other races. If my father is willing to support you, then you will gain something that ordinary mages cannot imagine.
H……"
When talking about the Troll Kingdom and her father.
Anne could not help but show a hint of pride.
"After the establishment of the Troll Kingdom, we launched three wars with the tacit approval of the Alliance, and we won all three large-scale battles."
"You may not know that currently nearly ten large human city-states in and around the Gulf Stream Plain, the most fertile land in the North, have all been included in the territory of the Troll Kingdom. In the future, more Beidi city-states will become the Troll Kingdom or even the Troll Kingdom.
Part of the Empire!”
"Being a guest of the Troll Kingdom will do no harm to you."
"To achieve this, you only need to let go of Ruiqi's soul. This is not difficult for you, is it?"
Before Matthew could speak.
Peggy, who had been listening for a long time, couldn't help but stand up:
"You've been talking for a long time, aren't you still drawing cakes?"
"You said every guest is a guest? Our Matthew is very popular!"
"In order to please Matthew, the Kingdom of Rolling Stone sent a princess, and almost even the king got involved!"
"What can your troll kingdom give?"
A trace of surprise flashed in Anne's eyes:
"The king also joined in?"
"Your private life is really messy!"
She stared at Matthew steadily, her eyes suddenly filled with amusement.
A few seconds later.
Annie suddenly took a step forward and puffed up her chest:
"The troll kingdom also has a princess, what do you think of me?"
Matthew looked Anne Salvins up and down.
The troll princess's eyes were shining and her attitude was serious, as if she was not joking.
I really want to talk about it.
Troll girls actually have more abstract physiques and hairstyles. Whether it's Annie standing or Ricky lying down, her figure is very good.
As for facial appearance, this varies from person to person, and at least Matthew won't find it objectionable.
"Wearing a mask seems to be quite charming?"
Somehow.
Such an idea actually came to his mind.
Immediately, Matthew was shocked by himself:
"Gan!"
"Why did my aesthetics unknowingly align with that of mages and gods..."
"Sure enough, the general environment will subtly change a person's thinking. Irondor is really a dire place!"
Matthew couldn't help but feel excited.
However, seeing Matthew's eyes wandering back and forth on her, and then his expression of deep thought, Anne mistakenly thought that Matthew was moved.
A sincere smile appeared on her face, and her tone became more open and frank:
"I like you."
"You are very handsome and your strength is amazing. Except for losing a little weight, in other aspects you perfectly meet my criteria for choosing a mate."
"I don't mind if you have other women. This is common for strong men in the troll kingdom."
"If you want, you can marry the princesses of the Rolling Stone Kingdom and the Troll Kingdom at the same time. Two are always better than one, what do you think?"
Matthew was surprised again when he heard this.
Before he could figure out the Troll Princess' true intention.
The troll warrior who had retreated not far could not help but burst out:
"your Highness!"
"You don't have to do this to yourself!"
"If I kill him for you, I still have a chance to save His Highness Ruiqi!"
Anne turned around impatiently and cursed:
"Stand back and don't interrupt my conversation with Mr. Matthew!"
Holiday blushed:
"But……"
Anne's tone became more severe:
"You want to disobey me?"
"Have you forgotten the vow you made?"
"Go, retreat to the garden, don't let me down, Holiday!"
Holiday's chest heaved violently.
Half a moment.
He stamped his feet angrily, turned around and walked into the ruins of the garden.
when it is time to leave.
He never forgot to stare at Matthew with a look that made him want to eat Matthew alive.
"The women of the Salvins family are indeed very majestic."
Matthew commented with interest.
He originally had no interest in Anne, but after seeing the troll warrior's performance, Matthew suddenly became interested——
He didn't really want to do anything.
But I want to see if I can get more tauren elements.
So he deliberately asked:
"What are the benefits of marrying you?"
Anne thought carefully:
"A large amount of spell resources, slave resources and wealth resources."
"In addition to these, my father once promised me that he would give me and my future husband a fiefdom. The area of the fiefdom will not be less than one-tenth of the current land of the Troll Kingdom."
"As far as I know, he intends to give me the city-states in the northern part of the Gulf Stream Plain as a dowry."
"As long as you marry me, you will actually become a king on your own. Several big cities in the north of the Gulf Stream Plain and a dozen small cities will become your territory!"
Said.
She added:
"If you are a person who likes to get straight to the point, and I don't like to be too nagging, we can have sex tonight and just go back and make up for the wedding!"
"If you think this is too sudden, we can take our time."
"It all depends on you."
"The premise is that you let Ricky go first."
After listening to Anne's straightforward and exaggerated narrative.
Matthew suddenly asked:
"How do you know that Ricky's soul must be in my hands?"
"Aren't you worried that she has been completely killed by me?"
Anne hesitated:
"I know she's not distraught."
"Her soul is still there, in your body. I'm not sure her specific location, but I know she's still there..."
Matthew's heart moved.
Just at that moment.
The Jaeger's Blade carried in his sleeve suddenly became hot!
