The Necromancer in the Wizarding World

In order to show his sincerity, Matthews took the lead in removing the shadow of death from his body and put away his magic bomb and staff.

Seeing Matthews's move, Carter no longer hesitated and he also cancelled the bloodline activation state. Although he did not activate the power of his bloodline, the physical transformation and strengthening brought about by the bloodline fusion still gave him extraordinary physical fitness.

Matthews' decision was not impulsive. He already had experience in close combat with bloodline apprentices.

In the duel with Doson, he was able to fight in close combat without losing. Although the opponent had stimulated the power of blood at that time, he was continuously weakened by the death coil. In summary, the opponent should be in a normal state.

However, Carter is still stronger than Dotson, which means Matthews has no chance of winning in close combat.

"Carter, I have already made concessions and am willing to fight with you, a powerful bloodline apprentice, bare-handed. Shouldn't you also express your gratitude?" Matthews asked tentatively.

Carter didn't understand what the other party meant. Should he give in as well? Give up one hand or one foot? He asked doubtfully, "What do you want?"

Matthews chuckled and said, "Simple! If you fail to defeat me in the end, you lose. Isn't that too much?"

The previous fight and stalemate had already taken half an hour, and he was confident that he could hold on to the end.

Carter was silent. He thought Matthews' request was not excessive, and even thought it was natural. After all, he was a bloodline. So he gladly accepted the proposal.

At this time, the atmosphere in the live broadcast room was very different, the bloodline apprentices were very enthusiastic, they had a special liking for close combat, while the other apprentices were not very interested in it.

There were a lot of bloodline apprentices watching the game today, including the famous Barnes. It can be seen that Matthews's reputation has risen.

"Senior Barnes, this Matthews is so arrogant that he dares to engage in close combat with our bloodline apprentices!" A bloodline apprentice named Brown expressed his disdain for Matthews.

However, Barnes seemed quite serious: "No, Little Brown, you may not have seen Matthews' combat video. His close combat ability is very good."

Brown was shocked when he heard this. To be recognized by Barnes meant that the other party was definitely not an ordinary person.

At the beginning of the close combat, Carter showed amazing strength, but his speed was slightly insufficient. As soon as Matthews started to fight, he realized that a head-on confrontation was not a wise choice, so he turned to using the strategy of using the opponent's force to attack him, relying on flexible skills to defend and counterattack.

Carter was unable to defeat Matthews for a while, and his impatience grew stronger. He knew that time was passing by relentlessly, which meant that he was getting closer and closer to defeat.

However, the more impatient the opponent was, the more relaxed Matthews became. He had so much experience in close combat that he was not afraid of Carter's cuckold style of fighting. If the difference in strength was not so great, he would have even been confident that he could have choked the opponent.

As expected, time was almost exhausted. When Matthews cleverly jumped away again, Carter was too embarrassed to continue chasing him, as that would not only be futile but also would result in him losing his blood.

At the same time, he had to admit that Matthews' close combat ability was indeed strong. If it weren't for his disadvantage in strength, he probably wouldn't be Matthews' opponent. No wonder the other party was so confident.

Carter took a deep breath and exclaimed sincerely: "Amazing! Your close combat skills are the best I've ever seen in my life. To be honest, you are a natural bloodline person. As long as you can fuse a powerful bloodline, your strength will definitely not be inferior to that of Senior Barnes!"

Matthews was equally convinced of this, but he was not interested in this. He would never follow the path of bloodline. "Thank you for your compliment, but what I pursue is the art of close combat, not strength itself."

Carter couldn't understand it. He had never encountered such a "weird" pursuit. However, he said nothing more and shouted into the air: "I give up!"

As soon as Matthews stepped out of the teleportation room, he was surrounded by many apprentices.

Barnes stepped forward, and the others made way for him. He said solemnly, "Matthews, Carter is right. You are a natural-born bloodline wizard. On behalf of my teacher, Leo, the intermediate bloodline wizard, I would like to invite you. As long as you nod, you will be a formal disciple."

The apprentices around were shocked. Barnes and the power behind him had shown absolute sincerity, which discouraged other apprentices who wanted to invite Matthews.

However, Matthews could only politely decline: "Thank you very much for your invitation, but I am already an apprentice of the death side and have no intention of giving up death magic."

Barnes had obviously expected this. He continued, "I know you are the inherited disciple of the Master of Alchemy, but you are just an ordinary apprentice on the Death Side. I sincerely hope that you can reconsider my proposal."

Matthews was silent for a moment, and finally shook his head politely: "I understand your good intentions, but my path is set and will not change."

Afterwards, he walked to the front desk and copied the video of the fight.

At this time, Charles finally found an opportunity to squeeze in. He asked excitedly: "Matthews, why did you reject Barnes' invitation? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

Matthews smiled faintly: "Charles, everyone has his own pursuits and persistence. For me, pure force is not what I want."

Annie also came over and said firmly, "Brother, don't listen to them. You have to believe in your own choice. Only when you are determined in your heart can you go further."

Matthews was speechless. Why was this naive senior sister always there every time this happened? Moreover, she herself did not seem to have a clear plan for the future, and she even reprimanded herself.

Although somewhat helpless, Matthews still tried his best to comfort Annie: "Don't worry, Senior Sister, I know what to do."

This Anne was always so impetuous. She nodded and left in a hurry, leaving Matthews shaking his head helplessly.

Charles said excitedly again: "Matthews, it's a pity that I missed the fierce fight between you and Garlon, but fortunately I got the video of the battle at that time!"

When Matthews heard the news, he was immediately delighted: "Help me make another copy of the video!"

"I know you have this habit, so I've prepared it for you." Charles said, taking out a photo ball from his pocket and handing it to Matthews.

Matthews took the photo ball and nodded to express his gratitude. This photo ball was very useful to him, so naturally he would not be polite to his friend.

After saying goodbye to Charles, Matthews hurried back to the laboratory. He still had an important task to complete today - practicing the burning perception magic.

He has completely mastered the upgraded death perception witchcraft model. Now he just needs to practice engraving as quickly as possible and try to engrave it on the staff today.
