However, the other party did not answer for a long time.
Matthew looked up at Su Ya, who was sitting on the throne with a detached and sacred expression. It seemed that neither the mission issued by Xiu Yi nor the voice in Matthew's heart had anything to do with her.
"What does this mean? Do you still have to pretend to be the Soul of the Rainforest?"
Matthew suddenly laughed in his heart:
"Because you can't lose face and ask someone to expel the Dragon Lich Cult, you simply leave the entrustment to the people of the Seven Saints Alliance?"
He sees clearly.
Xiu Yi must be from the Seven Saints Alliance and has not escaped, but he clearly mentioned that his mission is to "monitor Blinken", and the surveillance mission cannot be carried out casually.
According to Xiu Yi, he couldn't contact the alliance at this time, so there was no reason for him to act on his own.
In this way, the real client of this task will be revealed.
When I think about it.
Matthew's smile also had a hint of joking.
However, he soon stopped laughing——
Because the little foot that had been rubbing against him suddenly kicked him!
And the location is quite deadly!
At that time, Matthew almost hissed and subconsciously rubbed his thighs with his hands.
The next second.
Matthew met Bobo’s suspicious eyes:
"Are you actually in a daze? Hurry up and express your opinions. We have already expressed our opinions."
Matthew coughed and looked at Xiu Yi apologetically:
"Sorry, I was really distracted just now. What did you say?"
Bobo said dissatisfied:
"Lumière and I have both decided to accept his commission. The people of the Dragon Cult will go to hell sooner or later. But at the same time, we also want to hear your opinion. After all, in terms of cunning and cunning, we are probably not as good as the undead."
Mage."
Lumiere nodded to agree with Bobo's statement.
Both looked at Matthew.
The latter immediately pondered:
"I need more information. The existing intelligence does not allow me to make a judgment. Blinken is a level 20 necromancer. He is too dangerous."
Xiu Yi immediately said:
"In fact, it is just a level on the surface. Blinken has been squeezed by the Book of Blasphemy for a long time, and his strength has declined a lot. Now he has to spend part of his strength to suppress that semi-artifact all the time, so his
The real combat power is only around level 18."
"If you think it's difficult to track Blinken, I can provide a little help in this regard. This is my job."
As he spoke, he took out a chubby, round elf from the small cloth pocket on his back, then knelt down on one knee and placed the elf on the ground.
"I don't know!"
After the elf landed, he immediately showed a pitiful expression.
Its skin is light blue, with water and ripples slowly flowing on it.
"Be good, I don't know, just give it a try, it won't hurt very much."
Xiu Yi said softly.
When the elf heard the words, he immediately covered his eyes with both hands, but his hands were too short, and he could only cover the corners of his eyes. The rest of his eyes were watery, and he looked really pitiful.
Xiu Yi raised his right palm and slapped the elf on the forehead. At the same time, he shouted the name of the Dragon Worshiping Priest:
“Blinken!”
Snapped!
The elf was directly smashed to pieces by this slap, and its body turned into a huge pool of water.
In the center of the water stain, a clear picture quickly appeared——
…
The brilliance of the morning sun penetrated the dense rain forest and hit the huge banana leaves. A few crystal clear dewdrops were vaguely visible rolling back and forth on the leaves.
Suddenly, a big hand impatiently pushed the banana leaf away, and dewdrops immediately rolled down from the edge.
The perspective moved up quickly, and then he looked down at the sparse team below in a condescending manner.
Those are Dragon Worshipers one after another!
From this angle, the composition of the team can be seen at a glance. The man in black robes at the front is Blinken, followed by four well-equipped dragon blood warriors, followed by more than 20 people wearing brown robes.
The Dragon Worshipers.
The members of the fourth echelon are all earth fire dragons, and the person responsible for driving them away is a dragon-blooded warrior at the end.
The entire marching team was very orderly as they passed through the rainforest.
Even the most trouble-prone Earth Fire Dragon appears to be extremely spiritual.
It can be seen that Blinken has worked hard on team management.
while walking.
The man in black robe suddenly raised a hand:
"stop!"
There were nearly two hundred units in the team, and they were in the complex terrain of the rainforest. But with Blinken’s order, every unit stopped in place within two seconds!
Matthew saw a fire dragon stuck in the mud because of sudden braking.
But despite this, it remained motionless, letting the mud gradually submerge its fat body.
Blinken looked around and said coldly:
"Rest on the spot for 8 minutes, and then prepare for battle."
With that said, he rushed to the earth fire dragon and pulled it out of the mud!
"How careless!"
Blinken seemed to scold him sternly, but in the next second he threw a "Cleaning Technique" at the Earth Fire Dragon.
The Earth Fire Dragon roared, lying on the ground and gently kissing Blinken's shoe uppers.
The atmosphere gradually relaxed.
Everyone is resting where they are.
Only Blinken himself kept walking back and forth, sometimes looking around and sometimes scanning everyone.
suddenly.
His eyes stopped on a Dragon Worshiper for three seconds, and then he walked quickly towards him.
The Dragon Worshiper suddenly panicked.
He stood up from the ground, and just as he was about to say something, Blinken grabbed him by the collar.
The next second.
Blinken carefully arranged the pleats on his collar and slightly adjusted the tilt angle of the Dragon Cult badge on his chest.
"Remember, no matter how big the crisis is, people cannot panic or forget to take care of their appearance. This is the biggest difference between us as human beings and animals."
"Next time if I still find you wearing the badge at an incorrect angle, I will expel you from the Dragon Worship Cult immediately!"
The believer opened his mouth excitedly:
"Lord Blinken, I, I..."
After Blinken straightened his appearance, he gently patted his shoulder:
"Stop talking and work hard."
After saying that, he quickly left and looked elsewhere.
A few minutes later.
Blinken once again led the team.
This time, the angle of view could not keep up, but watched them leave the woods and arrive at a relatively open highland.
…
On the ground, water stains slowly closed up.
What started as a large puddle gradually turned into a small puddle, and in the end, all the water stains merged back into a round meat ball.
"I don't know!"
The elf put his hands on his hips angrily, as if scolding Xiu Yi.
Xiu Yi, who was well prepared, immediately took out a lead block from his waist and handed it over.
The elf grabbed the lead and swallowed it alive.
Grunt a little.
The lead mass appeared in its translucent belly, with bubbles popping out one after another. The elf burped contentedly, and the lead mass also disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.
""I don't know" is a reconnaissance elf, but its reconnaissance method is a bit cruel."
Xio smiled shyly and put the elf away.
Matthew nodded. The images just now were indeed very clear, and they were not noticed by the quasi-legendary Blinken. This shows that the elf's investigative ability is very good.
He extracted three messages from the paragraph just now.
First, Blinken does have a strong leadership ability. It is often difficult to train the bastards of the evil camp, but he can make every subordinate obey orders obediently. There is certainly a reason for this because of his strong strength.
But Blinken’s personal charisma and governance skills also play a large role.
In front of Blinken's troops, the underground coalition forces of the Scourge Cult are nothing more than a group of stragglers, not worth mentioning.
Second, Blinken seems to have severe obsessive-compulsive disorder. It is no wonder that he was so angry at Su Ya's slip of the tongue when he evacuated the Black Banyan Dreamland.
Third, after Blinken evacuated Black Banyan Dreamland, the direction of his march seemed familiar. Matthew thought for a while and confirmed that the high ground they were about to arrive was exactly where he had fought side by side with Lao Jitou and Luo Lan before.
That's the edge of the Bitter Marsh.
Judging from his posture, it seems that he is going deep into the Bitter Swamp. If Matthew hadn't known that the former owner of the swamp was named Dania, otherwise he would have connected Blinken with the legendary necromancer.
"What is the use of green branches?"
Matthew asked Su Ya.
Su Ya said calmly:
"It is one of the 'foundation objects' of the rainforest. With it, dragon worshipers can move freely in the rainforest to a certain extent, reducing the risk of encountering poisonous insects and beasts. At the same time, it is also a natural god.
Things are coveted by druids, rangers, and nature spirits."
Matthew thought for a while:
"So Blinken snatched the green branches in order to fight a protracted war in the rainforest. He did not intend to do it once and for all, or he did not have the ability to do it once and for all."
Xiu Yi echoed:
"What you said makes sense. Blinken is a very smart person. He never does impulsive things. This time he rushed into the rainforest. This was the most impulsive thing I have ever seen him do. But he dealt with it
He is very organized and organized. To be honest, if he hadn’t been an enemy of the alliance, I would have wanted to make friends with him.”
Matthew nodded slightly.
It's really not easy for Blinken to make the monitors sincerely admire him.
This kind of brave and resourceful enemy is the most troublesome, and Matthew is not willing to be his enemy unless it is absolutely necessary.
"My suggestion is that we can track Blinken and try to prevent him from destroying the rainforest ecology. If there is a chance, I am even willing to negotiate with him. It is the best way to persuade him to leave the rainforest without using force.
Best option.”
Matthew explained seriously:
"A level 20 mage is already powerful. Blinken once worked in the Alliance of Seven Saints, and then defected alone and joined the Dragon Cult. His heritage is immeasurable.
It’s not that I lack the courage to fight, but I don’t want anyone present to make any mistakes.
Of course, if you still fail to achieve the planned results after negotiating with him, then using force is also an option.
I believe that with our strength and cooperation, killing him is definitely not an impossible task."
Xiu Yi thought for a while:
"But how are you going to persuade him? Although Blinken is very smart, he is also very stubborn. He has determined that the Tomb of the Dragon is real and will never give up."
Matthew asked rhetorically:
"Don't you think it's strange? I mean the news about the Dragon's Tomb and the Sandstorm Bandits."
Xiu was stunned for a moment, then became serious:
"Please advise."
Matthew turned to look at Bobo:
"I remember Yu Lian told us that day that civil strife broke out among the Sand Bandits recently. The two sides kept fighting inside and outside the city. As a result, they mistakenly targeted the target several times, and all the people who died were outsiders, right?"
Bobo nodded vigorously:
"So?"
Matthew chuckled:
"The band of thieves mistakenly assassinated the target? Are you kidding me?"
"If they are a knights, warriors, or samurai group, I can understand it. But I can't understand the thieves group, which is famous for its intelligence investigation and precise assassination!"
Bobo suddenly realized:
"So that big fat guy lied to us!"
Xiu Yi coughed after hearing this:
"Well, he probably didn't lie to you. I have also verified this information. It is true. The places where the two sides exchanged fire were both inside and outside Cordo City. It is true that most of the dead were outsiders who were accidentally involved."
Matthew gave the conclusion directly:
"I think the civil strife in the Fengsha Bandit Group may be an act. Yu Lian once told me that besides me, he also sold information about the undersea tomb to another tomb robber, which means that someone may be interested in that tomb.
He was interested in the undersea tomb, but he didn't dare to take any risks, so he found the Wind Sand Thieves Group and staged such a show, with the ultimate goal of inciting the Dragon Worship Cult to explore the path first.
Of course, this is just one of the guesses. There are many real situations, and my guesses also have many immature aspects.
For example, if the Dragon Worship Cult is powerful enough and directly takes over the undersea tomb, the mastermind behind the scenes may not get anything. This is not in line with common sense.
For another example, there is doubt about the possibility that Blinken, who is so smart, would take the bait just because of the civil strife in the Sand Bandits.
In short, there are indeed many loopholes in this matter. We have not found out the truth yet, but we can use these to negotiate with Blinken first.
Judging from the fact that he snatched the green branches and promptly evacuated the Black Banyan Dreamland, he is a sensible guy.
As long as there is reason, no matter how evil he is, it can still be negotiated."
After saying this, Matthew felt a little thirsty, so he picked a leaf and twisted it into a funnel shape, made himself a glass of water, and asked everyone while drinking:
"Do you have any ideas?"
Su Ya held her chin and looked at Matthew with interest, and at the same time crossed her legs with one foot.
Lumiere shook his head silently.
Bobo seems to have entered a downtime state.
Only Xiu Yi exclaimed:
"Your thinking is really clear and you can grasp so many key points at once. I think you are more qualified to be a spy than me! Why didn't such an excellent mage like you join the Seven Saints Alliance?"
Matthew smiled modestly:
"If it were another mage, he might be able to analyze it more thoroughly than me."
The few people discussed for a while.
In the end, even Su Ya acquiesced to Matthew's plan.
Matthew asked the others to rest for a while.
He said that he needed to find a place to write two letters.
Although he is confident in his plan, he is also worried that he is too young and inexperienced, and the plan he makes may have hidden dangers.
So he planned to write and ask experienced bosses.
Originally, Master Ronan was the best consultant.
It's a pity that he is not here now, so Matthew is going to write to Zeller, hoping that several seniors, including Zeller, Richard, and Levitsch, can give him some advice.
The other letter was intended to be written to Peggy. Although the advancement had been completed, it was obviously not Matthew's style to leave immediately without caring about the matters of the Dracolich Cult.
As a result, he may stay in the south for more than a month, and many things will need to be reminded again.
Go through what you are about to write in your mind.
Matthew took out the letter paper and pen from the package and looked up to find the location.
At this moment, Su Ya's voice sounded in his ears:
"follow me."
Then Matthew saw a beautiful figure quickly disappearing into the woods on the left.
He calmly stood up and walked in that direction.
But Matthew didn't know that.
This scene still fell into the eyes of Bobo and Lumiere, who had long noticed his abnormality.
The two of them looked at each other and then looked at the throne, but where was the Soul of the Rainforest anywhere on the throne at this time?
Lumiere looked complicated and said nothing.
Bobo suddenly asked:
"If a human and a natural soul mate, will the child she gives birth to be a human or a natural soul?"
Lumière was stunned at the time:
"Well, they shouldn't have reached this level yet, right?"
Bobo looked at him with disdain:
"It's clearly exceeded."
Lumiere scratched his head in embarrassment:
"Sorry, this question is beyond my knowledge. I really don't know what will happen. After all, I am just a country bumpkin who has never left the rainforest."
Bobo said seriously:
"Don't say that."
Lumiere felt warm in his heart.
The next second.
But I heard Bobo say seriously:
"Maybe the country bumpkins have more knowledge than you!"
Lumiere's face froze.
"Here, I'll give you one. Don't be dejected anymore."
Bobo randomly pulled out a colorful candy and an alarm clock from the package. She put the alarm clock on the ground, then tapped the button on it, and the hands of the alarm clock started to move slowly.
Then she handed the colored candy to Lumiere:
"Please eat "smart candy", you will become smarter after eating it."
Lumière gratefully accepted the candy, but he did not eat it. He just put it in the pocket close to his chest.
After doing all this, Bobo began to wipe her armor silently.
Lumiere pointed to the alarm clock on the ground and asked:
"What are you doing?"
"Oh, give Matthew time."
Bobo said casually:
"Don't you wonder how long it takes him to write - I mean, write a letter?"
…
In the woods.
Su Ya casually arranged the next layer of hazy barrier.
She gracefully walked to a round tree stump and stopped, looking back at Matthew:
"You can write here."
"But before that I have to ask you - why didn't you follow my advice?!"
Her expression became stern and fierce, as if the violent rain forest soul from before was back.
Matthew said calmly:
"Someone has to deal with the Dragon Worship Cult."
Su Ya said coldly:
"Lumière can take care of him."
Matthew shook his head and said:
"This is too dangerous. I can't let him go alone."
Su Ya paced back and forth angrily with a sullen face.
After a moment, she suddenly sighed, the anger on her face disappeared, replaced by a deep sadness.
She put her legs together and slowly sat on the tree stump.
"I am very weak now. The Book of Blasphemy has polluted the source of the Black Banyan Dream. I need to devote a lot of energy to purifying it, not to mention that I have to promote so many natural souls."
"I need protection, Matthew."
This was the first time that Matthew saw pleading in Su Ya's eyes.
Matthew pondered:
"If it's just protection, Lumiere or someone else can do it."
"Can't."
Su Ya said decisively:
"I don't trust him."
Matthew was stunned for a moment. He had thought about the various reasons why Su Ya looked at him differently, but he did not expect that the other party would give such a reason.
"I myself came out of the rain forest fighting, so I know very well what is engraved in the blood of every creature here. I distrust every one of them equally, including your partner Lumiere."
Su Ya said coldly.
Matthew didn't refute, he was just thinking about whether his words were correct or not.
"I am just the soul of the rainforest, not the god of the rainforest."
Su Ya said softly:
"Do you think I like pretending to be grumpy every day?
But if I don't, they will immediately feel that I am weak and that they have an opportunity.
I will be pushed down and destroyed in an instant!
Today, the Dragon Worship Cult attacked the Black Banyan Dreamland. I summoned many animals, but I did not summon the piebald giant crocodile. Do you know why?
I'm afraid it will eat me after it gets in!
Trust me, it won't miss this opportunity.
Not only it, but also the Tyrannosaurus and Aeolus. Every beast in the rainforest cherishes the opportunity to climb up.
So only after they die and are promoted to war beasts can I have some sense of security.
Just because I was born surrounded by wolves!
Matthew.
Can you understand this feeling?"
Matthew looked over.
Su Ya's expression was still very stubborn, but there were vague tears in her eyes.
"Lumière shouldn't be that kind of person."
Matthew said.
Su Ya smiled:
"Look, you used 'should', which means you have been convinced by me."
Matthew was unconvinced.
"Then why do you trust me?"
he asks.
"Because you come from the civilized world and have the recognition of the oak forest."
Su Ya said softly:
"The oak forest is not a good thing, but she always judges people very accurately - even if the oak forest related to you has not been officially promoted to the soul of nature, I still firmly believe in this."
After listening to this, Matthew roughly understood Su Ya's current situation.
But he still looked apologetic:
"But I can't let them go by themselves. I don't worry about their safety."
Su Ya looked at him resentfully:
"So you don't worry about my safety?"
Matthew scratched his head:
"At most, I can leave you a bone dragon?"
"roll!"
Su Ya suddenly changed her face:
"Who wants your bone dragon, stinking necromancer!
You and your summons had better stay away from me!
I don’t want your protection!”
Matthew raised his eyebrows. He realized Su Ya's little trick, but he didn't point it out. He just smiled playfully:
"It's not a good thing to lose your temper now. After all, you have exposed your weakness."
Not to be outdone, Su Ya slapped the tree stump between her legs with her right hand:
"come!
If you have the ability, just come!
Don't you want to write a letter?
I'm just sitting here and won't leave.
Either you go somewhere else and write your letter.
Either you take me away from here.
If you are a man, just choose one..."
When Matthew heard this, he immediately rushed over.
After a lot of fuss.
He successfully subdued Su Ya at an extremely tricky angle.
Su Ya was suppressed and half-knelt in front of the tree stump, her face full of disbelief.
Matthew said leisurely:
"Okay now, I'll dictate it and you'll write it for me."
As he spoke, he slapped the letter paper and quill on the tree stump.
Su Ya suddenly screamed:
"Are you still a man?"
Matthew said calmly:
"Write or not?"
Su Ya gave up on herself and said:
"Write! I write! Let go!"
Matthew let go of his hand defensively, and she actually grabbed the quill and letter paper.
"explain."
Su Ya suppressed her anger and said.
Matthew cleared his throat:
"Dear Zeller..."
"Honey?!!!!"
Su Ya raised her head and almost dropped her pen.
Matthew directly pressed her head down:
"You write your own, don't ask too many questions."
Su Ya snorted softly, her face turned red, and she started writing obediently.
…
"Tip: Rainforest Soul's favorability +1+1+1..."
…
Matthew looked at it and smiled softly.
The two letters were written quickly.
Matthew quickly left the Black Banyan Dreamland, summoned Ella from the moonlit forest, who was taking a long rest, and asked her to bring the two letters back to Rolling Stone Town.
Then he trimmed it in the black banyan dreamland for a while.
After one hour.
Just as a group of people were preparing to set off to negotiate with Blinken.
A piece of news that surprised him suddenly appeared in front of Matthew's eyes.
…
"Tip: Since you have successfully completed the advancement, the power restriction of your contract summon (Tauren Skeleton) will be passively lifted within 24 hours. You can also choose to manually lift the restriction in advance, thus restoring the original power of the Minotaur Skeleton.
More power."
…
"Is there such a thing? I actually restricted Paige's strength? How come we didn't know that when we signed the contract?"
Matthew was stunned for a moment.
He didn't hesitate.
Directly choose manual release!
…
A little earlier.
Another morning dawns in Rolling Stone Town.
The sky is dark and bright.
On the farmer's market street, pedestrians come and go. Housewives or old people carrying baskets stop and stop in front of the stalls, saying good morning to each other, asking about prices, and occasionally chatting.
The street was bustling with people.
At a stall selling white radish at the corner of the street.
The stall owner Mary was cleaning the vegetable stall. Suddenly, her eyes flashed and two white radishes disappeared out of thin air!
Ding dong!
A few loose coins fell on the stall.
Mary accepted the money without being surprised, and turned back to her husband who was brushing the donkey cart and said:
"The invisible man came to buy radish today!"
The husband asked blankly:
"Aren't our daikon always delicious?"
Mary shook her head and said:
"He bought it once two years ago, but he never bought it again after that. He probably doesn't like to eat it. Maybe there was a guest at the invisible man's house today, and the guest liked it, so he bought it."
The husband put down the brush in his hand, hugged Mary's waist from behind and praised:
"You are so smart!"
Mary was proud for a moment, then seemed to remember something and said seriously:
"So don't take any chances. I heard that you have been getting close to that slut Jenny recently. If you get caught, huh!"
The husband trembled and repeatedly said no.
Mary then kissed him contentedly.
The sun gradually rises.
Not long after.
A tall shadow appeared in the alley of the next street.
Peggy was holding the vegetable basket and counting the dishes purchased today as if talking to herself:
"The recipe Sif mentioned should contain just these ingredients."
Not long after.
She returned home briskly, only to find that the kitchen was already on fire. She walked over and saw that Sif, who stayed overnight last night, was cooking a pot of soup that looked delicious!
Peggy asked curiously:
"What soup are you making? Baby."
Sif pulled up her cook's skirt of an unknown size, held up a spoon, and turned around with a smile:
"I made soup with the leftover fish jelly and mushrooms from last night. By the way, haven't I always said that I would try to make a dish that even the undead can taste?"
"I added something special to the soup today, do you want to try it?"
Said.
She served Peggy a bowl of soup.
Peggy took the soup and stuffed it directly into her chin, regardless of how hot it was.
The difference is that A Bing.
The hot soup flowed through her neck, and before it seeped out or dripped out, it was instantly evaporated by her soul fire!
"Forehead……"
She also burped like a human.
"The soup is good, but I still can't taste it."
Paige looked at Sif's disappointed eyes and patted the girl on the shoulder:
"Don't lose heart, baby, you're doing great."
"When Matthew comes back, your skills will amaze him, hahaha, I can't wait to see that scene."
But the next second.
Sif's eyes suddenly widened.
Paige doesn't realize what's happening yet:
"What's wrong, Sif?"
Sif pointed to Paige's chest and said:
"You just lit up for a moment, and then your whole person seemed to be different."
Paige looked down.
I found that my chest was flashing with bright white light!
"I'm going to upgrade!"
Paige was overjoyed:
"I haven't leveled up since I followed that loser Matthew. What happened today? I can feel the surging power!"
"Wait, is it because of this bowl of soup?"
Sif waved her hands, indicating that she had no idea.
Paige was just about to get another bowl.
But suddenly.
Her chest glowed with white light again!
"This bowl of soup of yours has such a powerful effect that it can level me up two levels in a row?"
Paige exclaimed.
Sif was also shocked.
The two looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
After a while.
Peggy's body emitted two more white lights in succession!
"Why am I still upgrading!?"
Paige ecstatically grabbed Sif's shoulders:
"Kid, we may have discovered a big secret!"
"That's your fish jelly mushroom soup, which can quickly level up the undead!"
"We're rich baby!"
"I have to share this good news with stingy Matthew. Oh, Matthew is not here...forget it, leave him alone, I will secretly upgrade and give him a surprise later!"
She caroused for a while between the kitchen and living room.
Suddenly I heard someone knocking politely outside:
