A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees

Chapter 80: Withering Light

Translator: Lonelytree

“Boss Leon! The lord’s manor’s people have come out in full force. At this moment, their internal defenses are empty. Should we go straight into the manor?”

In the alley.

A member of the Silver Frost Brotherhood suppressed his excitement and said. Leon’s expression changed. He raised his hand and smacked the man’s head.

“Don’t even think about it!

“Do you think the people of the Suki Family are fools? Rheagar had at least left a small team in the manor. The Lord’s Mansion must have other security forces. Moreover, what good would attacking the Lord’s Mansion do us?” The lackey scratched his head in embarrassment.

Leon looked at the flickering lights in the manor and waved his hand decisively. “Let’s go!”

“Where to?”

A few lackeys quickly asked.

“Prison, of course! Boss Dean, Morris and my stupid partner Jonas are all in prison. Now is the time to save them.”

Leon calmly led his men through Rolling Stone Town at night.

After Jonas was arrested for participating in the Martin Run.

He had secretly scouted Rolling Stone Town countless times.

At this moment, he was familiar with the place.

After a while.

They arrived outside the high walls of Rolling Stone Town Prison.

Northeast.

There was a tall tower.

There seemed to be someone watching from above.

Just as Leon was about to personally lead his team to the watchtower to take out the guards…

Suddenly, there was a commotion near the high wall! A few figures sneaked out from under the high wall.

“Boss Dean?”

Leon shouted uncertainly.

“Leon? You came at the right time! Damn it, we finally met a reliable friend.” In the darkness.

Dean cursed as he walked out. Behind him was Jonas, who looked ashamed. As for the tall Morris, he was supporting Dean. Leon then noticed that Dean was limping.

Before he could ask.

Dean took the initiative to scold, “Jonas, that idiot. I brought him out of prison, but he fell in the tunnel I dug. In the end, he was fine, but he broke my leg!” Leon had a strange look on his face.

After a long time, he finally managed to hold back his laughter.

Leon called the other lackeys over and looked at the watchtower nervously. “Then do we need to evacuate this town quickly? The Order of Calamity has brought the Underground Coalition Army with them, and they are very powerful. If we continue to cooperate with them, our relationship will probably be out of balance.”

Dean shook his head. ” You shouldn’t have been instigated by the Order of Calamity from the beginning. They have a deep relationship with the underground people, and they are not on the same path as us. Rolling Stone Town isn’t as simple as you think. I still don’t understand how I was captured by them. The bearded garrison captain is indeed powerful, but he can’t keep up with my speed. This is why I haven’t escaped. If I hadn’t received your emergency signal, I wouldn’t have taken the risk to come out now.”

Morris couldn’t help but interrupt, “Boss Dean, aren’t we being too careful? Maybe we just slipped that day? And look at how we escaped, and their guards didn’t even notice us. In my opinion, Rolling Stone Town isn’t any different from other towns.”

Jonas expressed a different opinion.

“I think this town is a little strange. I was caught just because I ran a little faster. This is unbelievable…”

However, Dean interrupted him, “I don’t want to hear you again. Shut up!” Jonas lowered his head in the grievance.

“We’re already out. It’s definitely impossible for us to leave just like that.” Dean whispered, “Leon, report to me the information from the outside. Let’s ignore the watchtower first.”

The group of people left the prison in small groups.

A moment later.

They found an abandoned workshop to hide in.

Dean hurriedly dealt with the fractured calf and used his outstanding tenacity to suppress the pain.

“So, are they going to have a decisive battle in the north of Rolling Stone Town?” After listening to Leon’s narration, Dean’s eyes lit up. “Then we can’t just leave like this. We have to do something!”

Morris said excitedly, “Take advantage of the situation and kill them all!”

Leon cautiously suggested, ” I don’t think it’s necessary for us to draw the attention of the Order of Calamity. We don’t know the internal defence of Rolling Stone Town either. If we poke the hornet’s nest rashly, we might get caught in it.”

Dean nodded in agreement. “You’re right. We don’t have to, and we don’t have the right to kill in Rolling Stone Town. Remember our profession. We’re arsonists, not murderers. Restraint is the most important virtue.

” We’ll just set the fire and leave the rest to the Order of Calamity. The question now is, where should we start the fire?”

Leon immediately drew a sketch of Rolling Stone Town on the ground.

“First, we’ll eliminate the Mage Area, The Suki Family Area, and Prison Area.

” Although the mage district in Rolling Stone Town has an empty title,” Dean calmly analyzed. “Ronan is also said to be trapped in the astral world. There is no need to take the initiative to make enemies with the legendary mage.

It’s the same in the Suki Family District. There are only small nobles and knights there, and our principle has always been to kill civilians rather than offend nobles.

“There are many guards in the prison area. Although these guards are not powerful, it is still troublesome to deal with them.”

Only the craftsman area, workshop area, civilian area, and farm area were left on the map.

“Theoretically, the civilian area and the farm area are the best, but the former is too far away from us and close to the battlefield. The latter is simply at the edge of the battlefield, so the risk is too high.

There are not many people in the workshop area at night. Even if the fire is successfully set, it will be difficult to create chaos.” Following Dean’s exquisite analysis.

Only the Craftsman District was left on the map.

“Let’s go there!”

Dean said decisively.

The group moved out again. Jonas carried the limping Dean towards the craftsman’s area.

Ten minutes later.

In the centre of the craftsman area.

“This is it. This iconic building is tailor-made for us!”

Dean suppressed his excitement.

In the art of arson, the more people involved, the better the effect. The more famous the building that was burned, the better. The building in front of him was obviously the most eye-catching one in the Craftsmen’s District.

“Jonas, carry me. Morris and I will set the fire inside. Leave a few people behind for support.”

Dean quickly arranged. “After setting the fire, we will leave the town from the northwest. Leon, you go and arrange the retreat route. Of course, you can also choose some suitable targets to burn along the way.” Leon nodded in dissatisfaction.

Dean did this because he didn’t want to share the spoils.

He was clearly the most intelligent one in the Brotherhood!

Leon suppressed his unhappiness and brought a few of his followers to the north of the Craftsmen’s District.

The rest of the people quietly sneaked into the building under Dean’s lead.

The moonlight shone gently.

Outside the hall on the first floor.

The sign of the Craftsman Protection Association was clearly visible.

North of the oak forest.

Evil Art Master Anderson’s order was firmly carried out.

On the battlefield.

Led by the Flag-carrying Boar Warrior, they advanced step by step.

From the side, a strong gnoll led a group of people around the forest and attacked in a roundabout way. “They want to attack the farm area!”

Matthew reminded.

“I’ll go!” Zeller suddenly mounted his horse. His riding skills were superb, and he soon arrived at the eastern part of the forest.

It had to be said that his action was very dangerous.

Under the pressure of the enemy, a spellcaster who left the team without permission could easily be targeted by the enemy.

However, Zeller was very confident.

He sat on the back of the horse and suddenly chanted a very short spell. Then, Matthew saw him take out a musket from his backpack.

“Magic gun?

Matthew didn’t expect Zeller to have such high-quality goods.

Bang!

Zeller gently pulled the trigger of the magic blaster, and a blazing fireball shot out. It actually crossed a distance of about 200 meters and hit the wild land east of the gnoll squad and the oak forest!

Not only that.

After the fireball landed on the ground, it burned fiercely into a wall of fire that

was aoouc 30 meters long:

At the same time.

The spell Zeller had chanted earlier also took effect.

A strong wind suddenly blew around him.

Immediately after.

An air elemental with an extremely muscular appearance appeared out of thin air!

Zeller ordered him skillfully.

The air elemental flew to the top of the wall of fire with a reluctant look on its face and then blew down fiercely.

“Hu hu hu!”

The walls of fire extended for fifty to sixty meters on both sides.

Its height had also increased to more than two meters.

The gnolls’ eastward route was instantly blocked!

Zeller had single-handedly obstructed Anderson’s plan to divide his forces.

Matthew heaved a sigh of relief.

He took a look at the shape and colour of the air elemental and determined that it was an air elemental elder.

This meant that Zeller was at least a tier 4 Warlock!

He felt much more at ease.

Then, he turned his attention to the battlefield.

In fact.

Ever since the appearance of the bone dragon.

Matthew had been working hard on his job, summoning the dead!

More and more corpses were awakened by him.

The good ones would become Silvermoon Zombies, and the bad ones would become Skeleton Soldiers.

These undead creatures lined up in an irregular formation in the north of the oak forest, silently welcoming the army that was inspired by the horn. As Matthew summoned more and more undead creatures.

His mana was also gradually running out.

His head was in even more pain! “I can’t drop the ball at this juncture.”

Matthew took a deep breath.

He took out three items from the bottom of the Magic Bag: Negative Energy Stones, Sobriety Stickers, and Mana Tobacco Leaves.

He held the Negative Energy Stone in his palm to reduce the negative energy consumption when summoning the dead.

The Sobriety Sticker was pasted on his forehead. It could provide a cool and stinging sensation and stimulate the recovery of mana to a certain extent. However, long-term use had great side effects, and it was easy for me to become addicted.

In the end.

Matthew stuffed the crumpled mana tobacco leaf into his mouth and chewed it carefully.

In the next moment.

A strong force surged out of his mouth.

His eyes began to tear up, and thick black smoke came out of his nostrils!

“Cough, cough, cough!”

It was the first time Matthew had taken Mana tobacco, and he choked.

But after a brief discomfort, he could feel that his mana, which was gradually running out, had recovered a little.

“Phew!”

Matthew exhaled a long cloud of smoke.

In the next moment.

He chewed up all the tobacco leaves and swallowed them.

Then, he continued to summon the dead souls tirelessly.

A few seconds later.

[Hint: You have summoned and maintained more than 100 Undead. During the summoning process, you have gained a new understanding of the Undying domain!]

[You have mastered a new ability: Withering Light.]

[Withering Light: You can activate a grey light on your undead. Those who are enveloped by the grey light will continue to suffer the debuff of decreasing
