A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees

Chapter 333 The Secret of Naga and the Shadow of the Far East

 …

 Looking at the large stack of documents.

Matthew showed a hint of surprise:

"so much?"

Yu Lian suddenly took them back as if he had woken up from a dream, and then took out three pages and handed them to Matthew.

He explained as he smoked:

"Most of it is false information. I was a little too nervous just now and forgot about it, haha..."

“We will give different intelligence to different people, and there are many people investigating Queen Naga recently.”

 “But only these three pages are the most true!”

Matthew lowered his head and glanced. The content on those three pages was very sparse and the handwriting was quite sloppy. They only briefly described some events in the life of Naga Queen Xina.

"so little?"

Matthew asked again.

Yu Lian smiled awkwardly:

“Naga is an extremely xenophobic race. Queen Xena’s appearances are few and far between. It is indeed difficult to collect real information about her.”

“The current Naga Kingdom is mostly managed by General Arenas, while Queen Xina stays behind the scenes and seems to have become a symbol of power.”

“I know some inside information about General Arenas. Not only does he have legendary strength, he also has a Kraken, a large sea monster that can run rampant in the Arunan Sea.”

“It was precisely because of the support of General Arenas that Queen Xina was able to tear apart all the opponents in the fierce civil war, and finally became the queen of the Naga clan.”

Matthew heard this and his heart moved:

 “Talk about the Naga Civil War.”

Yu Lian said quickly:

“There were originally two factions in the Naga tribe, and they were hostile to each other.”

“One of the factions I named the “Pragmatists.”

 The Nagas of this group consider themselves to be part of the ocean. They do not care about their origins and origins, but care more about the current situation of themselves and their tribe.

 They believe that now that Naga has successfully settled in the depths of the sea, they should not delve too deeply into their own history.

 For the practical Naga.

 All their demands are to maintain the status quo or even go further.

  Nothing is more important than maintaining Naga hegemony in the Arun Inner Sea and offshore the Endless Sea.

Therefore, there is a certain tacit understanding between the practical Naga and the mages of your Seven Saints Alliance.

 In offshore areas.

They usually take a detour when they see ships flying the flag of the Seven Holy Alliance.

However, this once caused dissatisfaction among many Nagas.

 Because after discovering this pattern, many ordinary merchants also began to fly the flag of the Seven Saints Alliance on their ships in order to avoid Naga robberies.

However, the advocate of practical action is to resolutely avoid it.

 Over a long period of time.

Although the Naga pirates are very dissatisfied with this proposition, they can be regarded as keeping in harmony with the alliance.

 Before the Civil War.

 You can find supplies provided by Nagas in Kordo City or many cities on the north coast of the Gold Coast.

There are also a small number of Nagas who come ashore to do business with us.

These Nagas belong to the hard-working group that gained power before. "

　　 Yu Yan paused.

 He made himself a cup of tea, took a sip and continued:

“In the era when the doers were in power, crossing the Arunan Sea was naturally risky, but it was far less murderous than it is now.”

“The reason lies in the rapid rise of the “Primarch Faction” within Naga in recent years! "

“As the name suggests, they are different from ordinary Nagas who have indifferent original bloodlines. The Nagas of the Primarch Sect have the pure bloodline of the first batch of Naga creations, and also inherit their darkness and madness.”

“I don’t even know where these Primarch Nagas came from. They seemed to appear out of thin air in the Arunne Sea—

I suspect they come from somewhere deep in the Great Ocean or the Free Islands.

In short, these original Nagas broke into the living home of the practical Nagas and claimed that they had brought the gospel of the Creator God.

If you know something about the origin of Naga.

You should know that the one who created Naga was a terrible creature of the twilight..."

Matthew nodded:

 “Two snakes that destroy the world, Bruch.”

A flash of light flashed in Yu Yan’s eyes:

 “It’s Him!”

“According to my analysis, the situation is roughly as follows—

　　The original practical Nagas of Arunnehai have broken away from Bruchi’s belief and control, and they want to live their own good lives.

But Brutsch clearly disagrees.

 He transformed a batch of brand new primordial Nagas through some method.

 Order them to come to the Arunne Sea to control and rule the ordinary Naga residents and restore their faith in themselves.

During this process.

  There were a series of conflicts between the Primarchists and the Practitioners.

  But both sides were quite restrained.

　　The Primarchs only took away part of the management rights of the Naga tribe.

 But the spread of belief in the Creation of Twilight.

 What they did was not very ideal.

 Because the ancient bloodline of many Nagas is very weak, they are also very satisfied with their current life, and are hesitant to believe in the twin snakes of world destruction again.

 The two sides began to compete secretly.

 This competitive situation has actually lasted for some years.

 It is also because of the internal game of Naga.

 Only some races on the land can open the channel for trading with the Naga tribe.

 I originally thought this situation could continue for a while.

 But because of an accidental thing.

 A war suddenly broke out between the two sides.

 This civil war among the Nagas lasted for more than two months before it ended.

 The number of the original Nagas is rare.

  However, there is bloodline suppression against ordinary Nagas.

Ordinary Naga will enter a weak state when facing the original Naga.

 Hence, the Primarchs easily won the early victory.

 In the subsequent battle.

The original body faction also has the upper hand.

 The Pragmatists were retreating steadily, and quite a few of them were brutally killed by the Primarch Naga, while some chose to surrender.

 But there are currently three Naga armies that are unwilling to accept Bruchi's faith.

They relied on their knowledge of the Arunan Sea to engage in guerrilla warfare with the Primarchs.

 This is a protracted war.

 The result of the war was that the Arun Inland Sea was turned into a river of blood.

To know.

 There are no civilians among the Nagas.

 All Nagas are born warriors, and everyone must participate in this kind of war involving the whole clan.

 It is not only the Nagas who have been affected by this civil war.

　　The creatures on all the islands in the Arunan Sea have been greatly affected.

 Let me tell you.

Cordo City's current prosperous situation is partly due to the Nagas..."

 Speaking of the back.

Yu Lian could not help but show a complacent expression.

Matthew looked curious:

 “So why did they start a war?”

 “It can’t be because of a certain bard, right?”

Yu Lian took another sip of tea, and then spat the tea leaves on the ground in a vulgar way:

 “That’s what I want to answer.”

“But that’s just hearsay that people with no brains would believe.”

“The real reason is because of a special “Sea Gate”. "

 “You know the Sea Gate, right?”

“It is said that it is a mysterious sea gate that can be used to travel freely between the seas.”

“That special sea gate is related to the fate of the Naga family, because it contains part of the seal of the world-destroying twin snakes Bruchi!”

"Originally, the Sea Gate has always been under the control of the Practical Sect. As I said before, the Nagas of the Practical Sect don't want to have anything to do with Bruchy anymore, so their attitude towards the Sea Gate has always been very... cautious."

“The coordinates of the Sea Gate are also regarded as top secrets within the Practical Nagas. This secret has been kept for many years, and even Bruch has not learned of its specific existence.”

"However, one day more than half a year ago, a Primarch Naga named Xina accidentally found the coordinates of the Gate of the Sea. The Pragmatic Naga planned to capture her, but Xina escaped very quickly. Eventually she escaped, and the other Primarch Nagas also learned of the existence of the Sea Gate."

“For that sea gate, they brazenly launched a full-scale civil war.”

"The result is as you can see now. The Primarchs won a great victory. They took the Sea Gate, and Xena, who discovered the Sea Gate and successfully escaped and informed the news, became the queen of Naga."

“It is said that she was greatly rewarded by Bruch and was promoted from a relatively weak Primarch Naga to a legendary creature.”

“The original leader of the Nagas, Arenas, became the general of the Naga Kingdom.”

“Other important positions are dominated by Primarch Nagas, and ordinary Nagas have become enslaved.”

 “The current Naga Kingdom is like this.”

“Because many people died in the civil war, the original Naga has been conducting human trafficking with the outside world.

 They captured many people and mixed them with snakes, and performed an ancient evil ritual.

 And through this ceremony.

 They can gain many companions.

These are all Primarch Nagas with pure blood.

It’s just that this kind of ceremony costs a lot of money.

Hence, the original body sent Naga to impose violent conquests within the kingdom, which caused relatively large public outrage.

 The spread of the belief in Bruch was also not promoted smoothly.

But I guess He doesn’t actually care about this either.

 His real purpose should be to cultivate the Primarch Naga who naturally worships himself.

 As for those descendants of Naga whose bloodline is already very thin.

 Just believe in him.

 Those who do not believe in it will fall victim to Bruch's tyrannical rule.

 Let’s get back to business.

 If you want to take action against the Naga Queen.

　　It is equivalent to declaring war on the two world-destroying snakes Bruchy.

 I am not qualified to give pointers on this kind of thing.

 But objectively speaking, this is indeed a very dangerous thing. "

Yu Lian’s tone was sincere.

 But Matthew keenly captured an important point:

 “How do you know that the Primarch Naga is engaging in human trafficking?”

Yu Liangan smiled:

 “I said I heard it from hearsay, do you believe it?”

  Matthew was noncommittal.

Yu Lian shrugged:

"I am a businessman. Whether it is a primordial Naga or a practical Naga, as long as they are willing to do business with me, I am of course very welcome."

“But you can rest assured, at least the people I sell to them are the scum of scum, and turning them into Nagas is also a good destination for them.”

 Matthew narrowed his eyes.

 His aura seems a little dangerous to Yu Lian:

“You are willing to give me the information about Queen Naga now, and you won’t hand over my information to Queen Naga in a blink of an eye, right?”

“After all, you are partners.”

Yu Yan pointed to the sky:

 “I have eyes, and I know what you are doing in heaven.”

“Don’t worry, my greatest advantage is that I am self-aware. Since I choose to make a living in your territory, I will definitely abide by your rules.”

“If the Seven Saints Alliance prohibits us from doing business with Naga, then I will definitely sever ties with them openly.”

Matthew couldn't help but laugh.

What Yu Lian said is very interesting.

Belong is both rogue and sincere, making it difficult for people to find fault.

 Speaking of which, Yu Lian is indeed a wonderful man.

He was able to gain a foothold in Cordo City as a down-and-out Sioux and successfully raise an armed force, which is enough to prove his ability.

Matthew’s eyes swept across the guards who exuded the aura of purgatory.

no doubt.

 There must be the shadow of some great devil behind Yu Lian's rise.

Cordo City is located on the north shore of the Gold Coast.

The port in the northern part of the Arun Inland Sea plays an important role.

 According to Matthew’s previous inquiry.

Yu Lian not only succeeded in becoming the city lord of Cordo City, but also extended his influence to other port cities on the north coast.

I can tell.

This guy is ambitious and very capable.

It would not be a surprise to Matthew that one day Yu Lian would establish a brand new kingdom on the Gold Coast.

 This is an area outside the radiation range of the alliance's forces.

 Located on the edge of traditional Irondor human civilization.

 It is an unexpected product after the natural disaster mage smashed the moon, and it is an emerging force.

 Neither Luonan nor Chen looked down upon this place.

 It is normal for the devil to take advantage of this territory.

Think of this.

Matthew suddenly changed the topic and said to Sickle quite directly:

“What if there is really a mage in the Seven Saints Alliance who wants to be your sponsor?”

“Will the forces behind you agree?”

 It does not mean that the sickle has opened its mouth.

Suddenly a crisp voice came from the side:

“Don’t you think your appetite is a bit too big, Tree Planter?”

“I have heard about your deeds, and I also know how strong you are, but what you just said is at least something that only a legendary mage is qualified to say.”

Matthew turned his head sideways.

 The one who spoke was the three-headed dog who had been lying lazily on the ground before.

 “Dolores…”

Yu Lian called her name, seeming a little afraid.

 Matthew did not look directly at the three-headed dog.

 He just looked at Yu Lian:

 “Your dog seems a little uneducated.”

Yu Lian sweated a lot, then smiled bitterly and said:

 “You don’t know, I am her dog...”

 Delores's tone became more unhappy:

 “Don’t you want to know who the devil is behind Yu Lian?”

 “I can tell you directly!”

 “He is the lord of one of the Nine Hells—the True Mother of All Dharmas!”

“Even Suriel had to speak calmly before Him.”

"I know that the main material realm is the territory of your Seven Saints Alliance, but this is the edge of civilization. I thought there should be some tacit understanding between the two of us."

“If you want to pry into other corners, that’s fine, but we spent a lot of effort on this **** fat guy, do you understand what I mean?”

 “If you want to cooperate, then show sincerity!”

“As long as your sincerity is impressive enough, we can even help you **** the Naga Queen!”

"But if not, please don't try to be our spokesperson. We haven't gone too far, so I hope you won't cross the line. Even if you are a mage from the Seven Saints Alliance, you have to abide by some established rules, don't you?"

　　What Dolores said seemed reasonable and well-founded, neither humble nor arrogant.

 But Yu Lian on the side was already sweating profusely.

 He said carefully to Matthew:

“Dolores is the daughter of the True Mother of All Laws—and the favorite one. "

“She is here to monitor, no, she is to assist me...she may not be very good at talking..."

The bell jingles.

 The sound of the iron chain rubbing against the floor was crisp.

 Delores stood up from the ground.

 Six pairs of huge scarlet eyes stared at Matthew, as if trying to suppress him from his aura.

However, Matthew just smiled softly:

“A character as powerful as the True Mother of All Laws would probably have many daughters, right?”

As soon as this statement came out.

 The atmosphere in the entire hall became tense.

"What do you mean?"

 The three-headed dog let out a low growl:

 “Are you threatening me?”

Matthew didn’t look at her, he just waved on the spot:

 “Peggy, take her for a spin.”

 The next second.

 A gleam of bright moonlight flashed in the hall.

 A plump and beautiful woman wearing a grass ring appeared out of thin air.

 She rushed under the three-headed dog in an instant, and then grabbed the neck of the middle head.

 In an instant.

 The terrifying moonlight swept everything.

The iron chain was cut off at some point, and the Valkyrie of the Moon flew to the sky with the three-headed dog in her arms!

　　Boom!

The ceiling of the magnificent city lord's mansion was blown off.

 A large amount of wood chips and small stones fell down.

The devil guards tried to outflank Matthew while dodging.

 But this move was stopped by Yu Jian with a stern voice:

 “Get out of here, everyone!”

 “I mean, if you don’t want to die!”

 The guards were slightly startled.

 At this moment, they subconsciously looked above their heads.

 Through the huge hole in the ceiling.

They saw a bizarre and shocking scene in mid-air—

The three-headed dog of Purgatory is being pinched by the neck and beaten wildly by the Valkyrie of the Moon!

Peggy’s moves are quite simple and crude.

 It means blocking the neck, hitting the head, punching and kicking!

However, in the storm created by the two crazy tilting energies, she was able to take an absolute advantage and beat the three-headed dog violently!

 Hit Dolores until she screamed!

This is the power of legend!

 The guards retreated silently.

Only one of them said a harsh word to Matthew angrily before leaving the hall:

 “The True Mother of All Dharmas will not let you go!”

 Matthew pointed at him a little empty.

A claw exuding negative energy appeared in front of the guard.

　　Before the guards had time to escape.

　　He was firmly bound by the touch of death.

 After just struggling for a few seconds.

His eyes quickly became distracted, and a large amount of pure white gas emitted from his seven orifices and merged into the touch of death.

 In an instant.

 A large handful of gold coins fell from mid-air.

With the sound of ding-dong-ding-dong.

 The rest of the guards were immediately frightened and fled away! Matthew turned around slowly.

Yu Lian was wiping sweat frantically from behind him:

 “This has nothing to do with me.”

 “I really can’t control those devils.”

Matthew said calmly:

"That's good."

“I was worried that you would mind if I killed a devil.”

Yu Lian shook his head violently:

 “It’s up to you, it’s up to you.”

“Even if you kill all the devils in Cordo City, I won’t say another word of nonsense.”

Matthew smiled.

 He did not delve further into this topic. After all, he was not a murderer.

At the moment, he first opened a soundproof barrier, and then quickly opened the oak field, wrapping Yu Si inside.

“Is the world-destroying twin snakes Brutsch related to the Sioux curse?”

Matthew asked.

Yu Lian’s face turned serious:

“So this is what you really want to talk to me about.”

Matthew smiled and waved the three pages of information in his hand:

“To deal with Queen Naga, of course I won’t just use information about your family.”

 “I just wanted to confirm each other.”

“Fortunately, the information you gave and what you said is generally consistent with the information I obtained from other sources.”

 Chen mentioned before that the "Dark Primarch Holy Cult" appeared among the Nagas.

 This obviously has the same meaning as the original body sect in Kamakou.

Yu Lian wiped his sweat again:

 “How dare I deceive you…”

Matthew waved his hand:

 “You don’t have to act so cowardly in front of me.”

 “I can feel a powerful force within you.”

"The reason why I put Dolores and those devils away is that, in addition to the question just now, I also want to know your own thoughts."

 “I want to know what your ambition is?”

 He stared at Yu Lian intently.

 The latter was silent for a long time before replying:

 “Why do you want to know my ambitions?”

Matthew said with great interest:

 “I think you are a very interesting guy with great potential.”

“I guess you are working with the devil just to use their power to achieve some purpose, but it seems that your progress is not going well at the moment, is it?”

“You are certainly smart and cunning and can fool Blinken, but the devils are not easy to deal with. They may not be the smartest, but they must be the most astute.”

 “You may not be able to get what you want from the True Mother of All Dharmas.”

 “But I’m different.”

 “If your answer satisfies me, I wouldn’t mind placing some bets on you.”

Yu Lian fell into deep thought.

Matthew did not continue to persecute him. He just shouted to heaven:

 “Peggy, stop playing!”

 A few seconds later.

 There was a loud snap.

 A **** dog’s head smashed down from the hole in the center of the roof.

 Hit it accurately on the floor in front of Yu Lian!

 The eyes on the dog's head looked straight at Yu Lian.

The pitiful howl of Dolores came from mid-air.

Yu Yan’s eyelids twitched.

 He hesitated for a moment:

"Can I ask a question?"

 Matthew nodded.

Yu Jian asked:

"Are you already a legendary mage? I observe that your partner is a legendary warrior..."

Matthew shook his head:

 “I’m not a legend yet.”

“But legend is just a thought to me.”

 When he said this.

 Exuding strong confidence.

 This is the confidence that the sufficient XP brought by planting trees gives Matthew!

 Yu Lian is still struggling a bit.

 See the situation.

Matthew simply shouted to the sky again:

 “Peggy, be quiet!”

“It’s late at night, don’t disturb the sleep of the residents in the city!”

Snapped!

 Another dog's head hit the ground.

This time, the dog's tongue stuck out, and the saliva dripping along the way corroded the granite floor into rust.

　　Dolores's wailing sound came from mid-air again.

 But this time.

 Her howl was so loud that it woke up the entire city of Kordo!

Blood all over the sky mixed with acid rain fell on the eaves and floor of the city lord's mansion.

 At the same time, a piece of beautiful moonlight fell.

this moment.

Yu Lian finally spoke:

 “I don’t have that much ambition.”

“My only dream is actually to return to my hometown.”

 Homeland?

The word ˆ is a bit out of place when spoken from Yu Qiankou.

 After all, what this guy did seemed to have long forgotten that he had Sioux blood flowing through him.

 But Matthew was willing to trust this to a certain extent.

 It is never the prerogative of heroes to endure humiliation and hardship.

Yu Lian is a ruthless person at first glance. If his goal is really to return to his homeland, then it does make sense to cooperate with the devil.

 After all, the devil's greatest enemy is the abyss.

 And the Su Kingdom was destroyed by the abyss invasion.

“Your ancestors were messengers of balance who came across the ocean. You were born and raised here. Is your so-called hometown really that important to you?”

Matthew asked lightly:

“What’s more, crossing the endless ocean is not an easy task, and many legendary mages may not dare to try this.”

Yu Lian shook his head:

 “The hometown in my mouth is not the Eastern Continent.”

 “But the Far East in dreams.”

“Since I had my memory, I have often come to that land cursed by nightmares and shadows in my dreams.”

“I saw people being tortured and whipped, I saw them really emaciated and like ghosts, I saw those poor souls bound to the earth with no way to escape.”

“I don’t know why, that land has a fatal attraction for me. I can hear the pulse and call of the earth. This is why I am immune to the curse of the Sioux people in the sea.”

"To be honest, at first I just wanted to escape. Every night I used alcohol, drugs and women to numb myself, but as long as I fell asleep, I would come to that land."

 “You know the Far East, right?”

"In the extreme eastern land of Irondor, after crossing the natural chasm, the two continents of the east and west meet on the endless ice sheet. There is a bridge in the sky hanging alone over the strait. Beyond the bridge is the legendary The Far East, where the monks originated."

“I have never been to that land, but because of many years of dreams, I am extremely familiar with that land, whether it is every plant or tree, or those secret buildings and evil altars—

The power of Barbassa and Galan made the devastated land even more gloomy.

 But they are not the culprits.

 The Abyss Matrix buried under that land and the super demons she controlled were the source of the destruction of that land.

 I know there is nothing I can do to fundamentally change this situation.

 But I can at least get some people out of it.

 Such as the millions of resentful souls trapped on the flaming sand dunes.

 They are all Sioux people who died innocently and tragically thousands of years ago.

 Intuition tells me.

 It was they who called me.

 If they can be successfully rescued.

 Perhaps I can be liberated too.

 For this I must become strong.

 As you can see, my qualifications are very average. I am just an ordinary person, and I am not like you who can easily master the power of the Balance Messenger.

 So I had to resort to outside help.

So one day, I met Delores, and then slowly walked to where I am today.

so.

 Please spare her life. "

Yu Lian’s tone was very sincere.

When reminiscing about the Far East, the emotions shown by this greasy fat man cannot be faked.

 Matthew stared at him for half a minute.

The latter has a calm look in his eyes.

So he nodded slightly:

"Can."

“If one day you plan to go to the Far East to rescue the trapped resentful souls, you can come to me.”

“You’ll be aided by a powerful army of necromancers and, if you’re lucky, a legendary necromancer.”

 The next second.

 In the stunned eyes of the sickle.

  Matthew closed the field.

“Wait a minute, don’t you want to know the relationship between the twin snakes of destruction and the curse of the Sioux people?”

Yu Lian couldn’t help but ask.

Matthew smiled:

“I am somewhat interested. If you want to say something, of course I am willing to listen.”

Yu Lian sighed and said:

 “It’s King Mingtan.”

“He and Brutsch signed an agreement—the Sioux people could cross the ocean safely, but the price was that their souls would return to the bottom of the sea after death.”

 This is exactly what Matthew once guessed.

 It can only be said that King Mingtan had no choice but to act in that position at that time.

 And Matthew obviously has not grown up enough to directly go to Bruchy to trouble him.

 So he did not go further on this topic and asked instead:

 “How much money do you need next?”

 “No need to pretend in front of me, I know you want to unify the Gold Coast.”

Yu Lian thought for a while:

 “I’m not too short of money, I’m very good at making money.”

Matthew said calmly:

“No matter how good you are at making money, sometimes you will be short of money.”

Yu Lian immediately smiled bitterly and said:

 “Ten thousand gold coins?”

“I will give you 15% of the income from several city-states on the Gold Coast in the future.”

Matthew said a little embarrassedly:

“Is ten thousand gold coins too little?”

 “It makes it seem as if I, the sponsor, are particularly stingy.”

Yu Lian smiled uglier than crying:

“No, no, no, ten thousand gold coins is actually a bit too much. I just thought about it again, one thousand gold coins is about the same.”

"make a deal!"

Matthew shook hands with Yu Lian readily.

 Then he erected a teleportation tombstone in the side hall of the city lord's palace.

 “Don’t worry, I won’t take advantage of you in vain.”

“In addition to promising to help you when you go to the Far East, you can ask me for help at any time.”

 “The first time can be free.”

 Matthew blinked.

Yu Lian breathed a sigh of relief:

“So, I am now considered to have been recruited by the Alliance of Seven Saints?”

Matthew smiled:

“Delores is right about one thing. I cannot represent the Alliance of Seven Saints.”

 “But this may not be a bad thing for you, you will understand later.”

 “Okay, I have to go.”

“I’m afraid I’ll have to trouble you to enlighten those devils, especially Dolores. You’d better remind her—

How many daughters does the True Mother of All Laws have?

How many good sisters does she have?

 I believe she is a reasonable girl.

 Hand will also make a very good dog.

What do you think? "

 After saying this, Matthew signaled to Peggy to show mercy, and the two left grandly through the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.

 Only the beaten and half-dead Cerberus was left lying in the courtyard shaking.

 Yellow-brown juice and blood mixed together and spread in all directions.

　　A strong fishy stench lingered in the courtyard.

Yu Lian walked over and gently touched her trembling forehead.

 The two looked at each other.

 They all fell into a long silence.

 Half a while.

 A guard came over to probe:

 “Lady Dolores?”

 “Do you want to report to the True Mother of All Dharmas?”

 Click.

 The upper body of the guard was swallowed up by Dolores's remaining head!

 …

 On the streets of Cordo City.

Peggy took off her grass ring and put on her cloak and asked Matthew curiously:

“Why do I think you are not here to inquire about Naga’s information today?”

Matthew smiled:

“I have already asked Carmela about Naga’s information.”

“In this regard, the magician is certainly more credible than the intelligence dealer.”

Peggy suddenly realized:

 “So you’ve actually been eyeing that **** fat guy for a long time?”

 Matthew did not hide:

 “Yu Lian is a talent that can be created.”

“The Gold Coast is also an undeveloped virgin land. It may not be as useless as the alliance’s senior officials imagined. I am now a senior mage. In addition to the Rolling Stone Kingdom, we can definitely look further.”

Peggy said with some emotion:

 “I can understand what you mean.”

“But your radical attitude and behavior just now really surprised me. If it were a year ago, you would definitely not threaten that fat man like this.”

“I would never dare to offend a certain force in Purgatory.”

Matthew thought for a while:

 “People will always grow.”

Peggy nodded heavily:

 “You grow up very quickly.”

“But I’ve actually grown up too. I wonder if you’ve noticed that even if I don’t wear a grass ring, my level is always one level higher than yours!”

“So I think it’s appropriate for my salary to increase a bit, what do you think?”

Matthew’s eyes suddenly became dull.

Peggy poked him in the chest with her elbow:

"what?"

 “Pretending to be a zombie?”

Matthew said as if waking up from a dream:

“Oh, I was just thinking about how to blend in with the naga.”

“After all, the Naga Kingdom is located under the sea, so it would be quite conspicuous for the two of us to sneak in.”

Peggy was indeed fooled:

 “That’s true of you.”

 “Then have you thought of any solution?”

 Matthew nodded slightly:

 “We have to find someone to help us.”

 While speaking.

 He stopped.

 In front of the two of them was a shop that originally sold magic potions.

However, it is easy to tell from the closed door and tilted plaque that the store has been closed for a long time.

 Matthew went over and knocked on the door.

After a long time, an old female hobgoblin opened the door cautiously.

 “We are no longer doing business here.”

　　The hobgoblin wearing pince-nez answered like this.

Matthew skillfully threw a sound barrier, and then said confidently:

 “Tell your boss that someone is willing to help them out.”

This hobgoblin seems to have forgotten about Matthew, whom he met half a year ago.

She looked wary and wanted to close the door:

"I do not understand what you are saying."

“You don’t have to understand, you just need to find the people from the “Eternal Night Tribe” and give them the name on this note. "

Matthew quickly handed over a piece of paper, his movements gentle and polite.

"I will come here again tomorrow night, hoping to meet important people in the Evernight tribe."

 Say it.

 He turned around and left with Peggy.

 His momentum actually succeeded in frightening the old hobgoblin woman.

 After walking out for a while.

Peggy couldn’t help but ask:

 “Are you that well-known on the Gold Coast?”

Matthew shook his head:
