The necromancer just wants to plant trees.

Chapter 467 Kunwu Ruins and the Shadow of Higher Dimension

……

City of Order, underground of the old theater district.

Watching Matthew's figure disappear without a trace on the ship.

A sincere smile appeared on the face of the Starry Night God:
"Finally, we got rid of this little plague god."

"Within 49 days, he cannot use the teleportation spell to return to the continent of Aiendor."

“That’s enough for us to do a lot.”

not far away.

Queen Kuangse, who struggled to pull the broken giant sword out of her body, raised an unsatisfied question:

"Does it have to be this way?"

"We all know that the Kunwu ruins may indeed contain a secret passage leading to the East Continent. If we complete Wu Ling's commission, we will have the opportunity to set foot on that magical land before others."

"Are we just going to give this opportunity to our enemies?"

The expression on the face of the Starry Night God suddenly became extremely cold:
"Are you lecturing me?"

Suddenly.

The starlight lingering in this cave became extremely sharp, as if being sprinkled on the skin by that light would cause painful burning sensation!
Queen Kuangse cried out.

The surface of her half-human, half-insect body was quickly melted by the starlight, and the whole person was melting quickly as if a wax figure was being roasted by flames!
"Do you think what I just said is false?"

"Matthew is a being like Gerald who has accelerated the dramatic changes in the world. Once such a being gains momentum, it is impossible to wipe it out easily."

"If he cannot cooperate, then sending him away is the best way to deal with him."

The Starry Night God sneered:
"You short-sighted fellows, if it weren't for me, you would have been buried with Tianlun Palace long ago!"

All the demigods present were silent.

They may have different thoughts, but no one refuted the words of the God of Starry Night.

The God of Starry Night is indeed the one with the most strategic vision among the giants in Tianlun Palace.

It is also because of his methods.

Only the weak and minor gods in Tianlun Palace were able to preserve the spark of life.

Plus the appeal of the God of Starry Night in the star world.

Under normal circumstances, these demigods would never question him.

Only Queen Kuangse, a temporary ally who joined in halfway, has not yet adapted to the style of this star god who has the final say.

But after this little punishment.

Perhaps it's time for Queen Kuangse to understand how to work with the God of the Astral Realm.

When it is.

Everyone was silent.

The God of the Star Realm looked around and saw Queen Kuangse lower her head tactfully. A hint of satisfaction appeared in his eyes:
"No more Matthew."

"There is no one in this city who can stop our plans."

"Don't worry about Isabel. Like I just said, she is indeed on the verge of leaving or dying."

"She cannot show up in front of too many people, nor can she display her own power. After all, she has lost control over Aiendor, and even the Seven Saints Alliance is no longer under her control. Surel, Lind, and Wuming all have their own ulterior motives. The alliance's split or destruction is a foregone conclusion."

"The divine mages won't care about this city-state."

"We have enough opportunities to build our own "Magic Pool" on the northern land before the ether expands!"

"This city will be the center of the future magic pool!"

Speaking of it.

The Starry Night God's tone became even more excited:
"Soon, we will make all the creatures in the multiverse realize one thing - Aether has never been the exclusive domain of mages!"

"Divine power can also control the ether, and can even exert a greater power than the mages!"

"But not before that."

"We need to create more chaos!"

The words fell.

All the demigods left the vicinity of the ship on the cliff.

Followed by.

Beneath the ground in the old theater district, dense swarms of madher larvae crawled out from underneath. They launched a desperate charge towards all living things, beginning a crazy journey of parasitism and reproduction!

at the same time.

Other areas within the City of Order.

Suddenly, a light green mist rose strangely.

The fog broke through the doors and windows and poured into the mouths and noses of countless sleepers, choking many people awake in an instant!
quickly.

Coughing sounds were heard one after another in the city under the cover of night.

Many people experienced severe coughing up blood during those bouts of coughing!

Some people with poor physical constitutions even suffocated to death!

In an armory in the city.

The drunken blacksmith was awakened by the clanging sound of metal.

Bewilderedly, he kicked the bottle away from his feet.

Followed by.

He saw the weapons he had made with his own hands leave the racks where they were placed one by one and float in the air.

The opening of the weapon emits a faint blue light, giving people a weird and mysterious feeling.

The blacksmith was shocked.

In an instant, he sensed an extremely strong murderous intent!
Just as he was about to flee the scene after his drunkenness was over, he felt a sharp pain in his heart.

A four-inch dagger had pierced the blacksmith's heart at some point.

The intense pain and violent murderous intent almost caused the blacksmith's will to collapse.

He turned around with difficulty.

But he discovered that the person holding the sword was the apprentice whom he beat and scolded on a daily basis.

The latter's eyes were lifeless at this moment, and in them there was nothing but indifference and endless murderous intent!
"what--!"

When the first scream sounded in the city.

The subsequent sounds were like endless echoes in the valley.

The whole city.

I was awakened at this moment.

At this moment, he began to fall into the abyss!
"insect!"

"Plague!"

"Kill!"

"What a brave new world!"

The figure of the God of Starry Night floated in the sky above the City of Order.

He looked at the magic balloons floating above the old theater area from afar, with a mocking expression on his face:

"Go."

"Kill the enslaved elementals."

"Or convert them."

“Get them involved in our cause.”

"Then."

"Let us welcome the new world that belongs to us."

"Welcome to……"

"My land of God!"

The words fell.

A dozen chains made of starlight extended from the body of the God of Starry Night.

These chains were connected to the bodies of the former members of Tianlun Palace.

next second.

With the blessing of the God of Starry Night's immense power, nearly twenty demigods flew towards the City of Order in all directions.

It was like thousands of bats flying over the city.

Followed by.

Doors leading to the unknown world slowly opened to the sound of hymns.

The shadow of the Starry Night God expanded infinitely.

finally.

It "swallowed" the entire City of Order!

……

"Tip: You cannot use the teleportation spell to return to the Death Terror Cemetery or the Moonlit Glade!"

……

Kunwu ruins.

In the nameless valley.

Matthew raised his eyebrows slightly:
"So the so-called witch spirit is just a bait. I was wondering why the drama before and after this was a bit awkward..."

"This thing must really be an opportunity or a benefit. It is precisely because it does not carry any malicious intent that it evades my perception."

in other words.

The God of the Starry Night did give Matthew a great gift.

However, the opportunity cost of this gift is that Matthew will no longer be able to interfere with the world of Eindo in the short term...

“But is this really the case?”

Matthew chuckled:
"Paradise Lost, start!"

next second.

The scenery before his eyes flashed.

as predicted.

Even though he was in the ruins of Kunwu, returning to Paradise Lost was still a smooth journey for Matthew.

And as soon as he came back, Matthew saw Terraste busy digging holes and planting trees.

Lao Tai’s efficiency in planting trees is even better than that of the God King Matthew.

I don’t know if this is a racial talent, or if the old man is really better at planting trees.

not far away.

The kitten incarnated as Dark Paige was sleeping soundly under an oak tree.

Matthew didn't bother them.

Instead, he silently sensed the connection between Paradise Lost and the outside world.

……

「Tip: A new external anchor point "Kunwu Ruins" has been added to Lost Paradise.

The initial anchor point is "Death Fear Cemetery" (it can be reopened by consuming 10 points of Founder Energy).

Current anchor point "Kunwu Ruins" (no need to consume free entry and exit)

……

See here.

Matthew breathed a sigh of relief.

"10 points of founder energy is equivalent to 1/30 of Lao Tai. Although it is not a small amount, at least I can go back immediately..."

Ever since Terrast was resurrected.

Matthew's founder energy accumulation speed is about 2.5 to 3 times faster than before.

Even though he had shown off in the cave earlier and spent a small amount of money, he still had enough points to return to the Death Fear Cemetery.

present.

With the authority of the founder, Matthew restored the connection channel between Paradise Lost and the Cemetery of Death.

This time.

As long as he thinks about it, he can return to the Death Fear Cemetery!

"The Starry Night God probably didn't expect that Paradise Lost didn't really collapse. Not only did I take his bait, but I can also return at any time!"

Matthew was quite satisfied.

At this moment.

A surprised voice suddenly sounded in his ears:

"Where is this place?"

Matthew looked down and saw——

The skull biting its fingertips also followed into Paradise Lost!

This was something Matthew had not expected.

"Is this the heaven of the Western gods?"

"I have seen a similar world in the world of life in the mirror, and I thought it was just an illusory description, but I didn't expect it to be real!"

The skull quickly spun around Matthew, making loud exclamations as it turned.

Matthew was surprised and said:
"How did you get in?"

The skull said:

"I came in with you!"

"You are the heir to the Kunwu Secret Treasure, and I am the Kunwu Messenger Sander. From the moment the agreement was reached, I will be inseparable from you until you complete your mission as the heir..."

"By the way, my name is Xander, what's your name?"

Matthew looked at Sander and couldn't help frowning.

Paradise Lost is now one of his most important secrets.

This Sander actually broke in by accident.

It’s not easy to do…

It was as if he could sense the murderous aura from Matthew.

Sander was shocked and said:
"What do you want to do?"

"I'm just a witch spirit?"

"I have a great benefit ready to give you. There's no need to stare at me like that, right?"

Matthew's eyes slowed down a little:
"First of all, I must explain that I became the heir of Kunwu Ruins because of someone else's scheme. As for the agreement you mentioned, I have never seen it at all."

"You must now explain the whole story to me -

What are you?
What are the Kunwu ruins?
Is there anything waiting for me to inherit?

And what dangers and difficulties must I face in order to inherit these?

And then there’s the content of the agreement itself…

You must tell me everything about this.

after this.

I will make the final decision.

You have also seen this world.

It's my world.

If your answer does not satisfy me, I may have to ask you to stay here for a while..."

The skull said quickly:

"I am Wu Ling, do you know Wu Ling?"

"The Wu Clan likes to use the skulls of their ancestors to suppress the cabin. They believe that this can calm the sea veins. Over time, one of the luckiest skulls will become the Wu spirit of that ship."

"Every Wu clan ship has a Wu spirit, and I am not only the Wu spirit of a large ship, but also the leader of the Wu spirits of the entire fleet!"

"When Kunwu Mountain shattered, the Wu Clan sent thousands of ships to the depths of the Western Ocean to find a new habitat. My team and I were among them."

"As far as I know, mine may be the only dragon ship that has successfully reached the continent of Aiendor. The rest of the ships sailed to other worlds in the Great Destruction or were swallowed by the dusk creations."

“Initially, my mission was to find new habitats.”

"But I stopped seeing the fireworks at Tianfengtai about a thousand years ago."

"This means that the last of the Wu tribe has died. There is no point in me looking for a new habitat."

"What I have to do now is to pass on the secret treasure that the Wu clan buried in the ruins of Kunwu..."

"And you are the heir I chose."

Matthew frowned and said:
"You should have told the Starry Night God and the others about this, right?"

"Why didn't you choose them?"

Wu Lingsande said:
"Uh..." "In fact, I had no choice at all. I invited them at first, but they all refused and told me that they would bring me a perfect successor. That person is obviously you."

"As for the content of the agreement, it was automatically generated the moment you touched my teeth."

"Can you feel whether there is some messy knowledge in your mind? Part of it is the agreement between us..."

"To be specific, I will take you to the ruins of Kunwu. After you take out the Wu people's secret treasure, you just need to make sure that the Wu people's cultural knowledge is passed on..."

"You should know that the alchemy of the Wu people is the most powerful in the entire Su tribe. Only the Immortal people can barely match it, but the two sides have different focuses. When it comes to building ocean-going giant ships, the Wu people's technology is undoubtedly the best!"

"All you have to do is follow me to the Kunwu ruins. It's really that simple!"

Even if Sander's words were exaggerated.

Matthew did not show any sign of being persuaded:
"According to what you said, the so-called secret treasure was also a thousand years ago."

"After more than a thousand years, whether the things are still there or not is another matter, right?"

Sander was stunned for a moment.

Then he answered honestly:
"You have a point."

"In fact, I am not sure whether the Wu clan's secret treasure is still in the ruins of Kunwu. The world has changed so much. Who can guarantee that everything will be the same as before?"

"But I can't help it..."

“This is my mission.”

"In the early days of its birth, in order to prevent the witch spirit's power from backlashing, the witch tribe would use the mission and rules to bind the witch spirit's own will.

from this angle.

These unfilial descendants are really not human. They pray to their ancestors to bless them, and at the same time they set rules and regulations for us.

If I don’t complete my mission, I will be bound in the dragon ship forever and will never be free…”

Speaking of it.

Sander suddenly said:
"Actually, if you force me to stay in this heaven, I can accept it."

"Here, I can feel that the constraints of my witch spirit identity on me have been weakened to the lowest level."

"I can be freed from the dragon boat's body temporarily and do what I want..."

"For example—"

"I just want to have a few more bones for myself, at least to build a skeleton, and then find a female skeleton as my partner."

"Um, there should be male and female skeletons, right?"

Sander's attitude changed.

Matthew felt embarrassed to actually force him to stay here.

But it is also astonishing how quickly this guy adjusted his mentality.

"Can I come over and sleep with that cat?"

"No, since this paradise is your world, why don't you turn me into a cat too!"

"I think it's sleeping soundly."

He asked eagerly.

It was as if he had completely forgotten about the Kunwu ruins!
Now it was Matthew's turn to be completely speechless.

He thought for a moment.

I decided to take a look at the connection point of Kunwu ruins first.

Not out of curiosity.

It is purely to ensure the security between Paradise Lost and the newly added connection points.

"Take a walk around and then go back to the cemetery immediately!"

Matthew made up his mind.

next second.

He left Paradise Lost with the witch spirit Sander.

Also appearing in the unknown valley with them were Peggy, who opened her eyes blankly, and Terrast, who had a hint of excitement in his eyes!

"You've been stuck in there for too long, come out and get some fresh air!"

Matthew smiled at Peggy and Old Ty.

After their resurrection, these two people can also move away from Paradise Lost like Matthew, but they cannot leave Matthew as a mobile anchor for too long.

When in Aindor.

Matthew didn't dare to summon them out because he was afraid of being discovered by the magician.

But the Kunwu ruins are different.

This is the holy land of the East Continent, an area that is basically beyond the reach of divine wizards. Matthew thought he could let them out for some fresh air.

Further.

Matthew is still considering entrusting all tasks related to Kunwu ruins to Terrast!

"How's your recovery going?"

A group of people walked in the valley which was as warm as spring.

Matthew asks about Terraste's status.

“It’s slow, but no big deal.”

Terraste spoke slowly, with indescribable excitement:

"This is the East Continent, right?"

"I can feel that my strength is recovering faster here..."

Matthew nodded thoughtfully.

Before ascending to godhood.

Terrast is the swordsman who received the revelation from the East Continent.

Now that he has arrived at the Eastern Continent, which seems to be recovering, even if he gives up his throne of Paradise Lost, he will probably be able to recover to an extremely powerful level of strength.

It seems that letting him deal with the Kunwu ruins is the best of both worlds.

Matthew thought secretly in his heart.

The valley has a mild climate, abundant water and grass, and even the natural landscape gives Matthew a strong oriental style.

This made him recall the country he had traveled to before.

Soon.

They arrived at the mouth of the valley.

By this time.

They discovered that the valley was located at a very high position. Standing at the mouth of the valley, they could look down at many sceneries below the mountain.

Matthew was surprised.

It was clearly the same mountain, but it was divided into extremely fragmented areas from top to bottom.

Some areas are covered with green grass and trees, and the scenery is as beautiful as the interior of the valley.

Some places were charred black, with zombies walking across the evil land.

Beneath the pile of white bones, there are a large number of corpses of unknown races crawling unconsciously!

Such a huge contrast scene.

It actually appeared interspersed in a large area.

Matthew further observed.

These areas seem to be clearly separated. The crawling limbs will not step into the lush forests, and the birds in the forest will not fly to the bad land.

They are clearly close to each other, but they seem to come from two different worlds.

"This is the scene after the Kunwu Holy Land and the Abyss Evil Land intertwined."

"I thought this situation should have been restored long ago, but I didn't expect it to be like this a thousand years later. However, a certain fixed balance has been reached between the two..."

Wu Lingsande expressed such emotion.

Sangge briefly introduced the cause of the Kunwu ruins.

The Sioux emperor initially initiated the catastrophe of self-destruction.

He personally buried the invaders from the East Continent and the Abyss.

And in that catastrophe.

Kunwu Mountain was the first to be hit.

The Kunwu ruins are also highly entangled with the abyss, becoming what they are now.

"It's very dangerous here. Many people have died here. There are also some monsters that are scarier than the undead."

Before approaching an abyssal evil land.

Terraste issued a warning with a serious look on his face.

Matthew nodded.

Just arrived.

The group was very cautious.

They stood on a small hill and looked into the distance at the nearest abyss.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that there are only a few zombies in the evil land.

But Matthew sensed several dangerous places beneath the soil!
That's a lurking hunter!
It could be the remnant of the abyss demon, or it could be a deformed product of the entanglement of the abyss power and negative energy. In any case, it should not be underestimated.

However, it is also in this process.

Matthew suddenly felt that this space was filled with an energy he had always dreamed of.

That is--

"Founder Energy!"

That moment.

His authority as the founder in Paradise Lost trembled violently.

The knowledge in his mind told him.

I cannot directly absorb the founder's energy that is free between heaven and earth.

But there are other ways to achieve this!

……

"Hint: You have obtained a new side quest "Collect Energy!"

Mission Description: You can collect the founder's energy in the Kunwu ruins in the following two ways to strengthen your power and authority in Paradise Lost.

1. Plant trees in the abyss.

2. Kill the demons that broke into the Kunwu Holy Land.

Primary Goals & Primary Rewards——

1. Plant 1000 trees cumulatively (a random legendary spell or ability from the Undead Realm will be awarded)
2. Kill 300 demons cumulatively (a random legendary spell or ability in the nature realm will be rewarded).

Note: You can also entrust this task to other creatures in Paradise Lost to complete. At that time, the reward you receive will remain unchanged, and the actual executor will receive an additional reward..."

……

Matthew's eyes lit up.

Can the task finally be outsourced?

Terraste was frightened by his look:
"what happened?"

Matthew shook his head, then smiled and said:
"Don't you think these abyssal badlands are suitable for growing trees?"

"And those annoying demons, their existence is a blasphemy to the Kunwu Holy Land. You just need to recover your strength, why don't you practice with them?"

Terraste looked at Matthew in confusion.

Matthew thought for a while:
"How about I plant the trees in Paradise Lost myself?"

Lao Tai wanted to ask for more details.

At this time, Peggy's voice floated from a distance:
"Matthew!"

"Look what good stuff I found?"

Matthew and the other man followed.

Peggy was found lying on a thick tree trunk, and there was a fiery red shadow not far from her.

That's a red-skinned silkworm!

The silkworm was crawling slowly on a huge leaf, secreting countless dark red particles along the way.

Matthew sensed it as he approached.

This kind of particulate matter has a strong natural smell.

That is the power of healing!
"It seems that this particle can be used to make healing potions, but whether it has other effects still needs to be tested by pharmacists."

Matthew carefully collected some of the particles for future research.

"This is a fire silkworm. The pharmacists of the Wu Clan put the fire silkworm on the patient's wound to cure all diseases. It is said that it can also be taken internally. However, whether the fire silkworm can crawl to the location of the internal injury depends on luck..."

Sander introduced, shaking his head.

Subsequently.

They found another field of feathers growing out of the ground in the forest.

Every feather in the field carries a strong floating force.

"I don't know the origin of this feather. It seems that an ancient alchemist planted it here. It is said that when Kunwu Mountain is covered with these feathers, the entire holy land will be able to ascend to heaven in broad daylight!"

"It's a pity that before that day came, the holy land became a ruin."

"These feathers are often plucked as soon as they grow out. They can be used to make floating islands or air fortresses. They are quite practical!"

Sander introduced them one by one as if he were listing them all.

Do this several times.

They encountered several rare and exotic objects, which made Peggy exclaim that it was an eye-opener. Even the usually steady Terrast was full of expectations and curiosity about the Kunwu ruins.

Matthew was also deeply attracted by the magic of this holy land.

But he also did not forget the principles he had set.

"It's about time to go back and take a look!"

He reminded himself in his heart.

It won’t be too late to explore the Kunwu ruins after we’ve resolved the issues in the City of Order!

then.

He arranged the other three people in the Kunwu ruins, and told Lao Tai and Peggy not to go too far and try to explore the relatively safe holy area.

Subsequently.

Matthew passed through Paradise Lost and successfully returned to the Cemetery of Death!

"what?"

"Master, didn't you go to the north?"

The loyal butler Ali smelled Matthew's scent and rushed to him immediately.
