A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees

Chapter 75: Kill!

Translator: Lonelytree

[Hint: You have encountered the Evil Arts Master Anderson (LV15) and 33 Kobolds!]]

Almost at the same time when the two sides met.

Matthew shouted loudly,

“Ella!”

Miss Owl, who was doing an enlightenment ceremony for the oak forest, heard Matthew’s call and flew southwest without saying a word.

That was the location where Matthew and Blake had agreed to set up a new sentry post.

Seeing Ella leave safely to report the situation, Matthew heaved a sigh of relief.

He didn’t have time to change his robe. He quickly took out the Defensive Psalm and held it in his left hand. He put the Cough Staff and the Withered Wood Staff on his waist so that he could use them at any time.

Eli’S reaction was even more extreme.

He glared with his eyes wide open and pounced forward on all fours. His entire body expanded, and with a roar, a tall and mighty sabre-toothed tiger appeared on the barren land under the moonlight.

He actually pounced straight at the enemy!

Ambush battles always caught people off guard, but Anderson’s reaction was quick. He shook off the cloak on his back and took out a huge mace from his back.

The mace emitted a dark red, evil lustre.

Under his orders.

The Kobolds people swarmed out.

They charged Eli with their small wooden sticks and small round shields.

Matthew keenly noticed that some of the Kobolds were holding wooden boxes in their hands. Compared to normal Kobolds, their eyeballs were more prominent. Their eyes were bloodshot and had a strange lustre similar to Anderson’s hammer.

“Roar!”

Eli bravely charged into the crowd of Kobolds.

His body size was enough to crush these small and medium-sized creatures.

The sabre-toothed tiger pounced, raised its fangs and swept its tail.

Immediately, three to four Kobolds died!

However, something unexpected happened.

The Kobolds, who were known for their tendency to flee when their morale was low, displayed illogical bravery.

The death of their companion did not make them afraid. Instead, they continued to surge at Eli fearlessly.

Eli was strong and would not be hurt by the Kobolds. However, there were too many Kobolds. With the support of Courage, even the ferocious sabre-toothed tiger had to circle around them. It was not easy to attack them head-on.

A few seconds later.

Anderson himself also joined the battle with the dog-headed people.

He waved his huge mace and shouted something.

The Evil Art Master’s incantation was complicated and obscure. He chanted it quickly and incoherently. Matthew did not even have the chance to interrupt it with his Cough Staff. Anderson had already ended the casting phase.

Matthew could only vaguely determine that he had used a total of three spells.

The first spell was the summoning of a magic pet!

Black smoke rose from the moon, and a demon that looked like a hyena with sharp barbs on its tail quietly appeared.

“Susuva Magic Hound (Elite/LV10): An Abyssal Creature, a mid-level demon, usually accompanied by elite gnolls.”

Just as the information about this summoned creature appeared in front of Matthew’s eyes.

He had also completed his summoning.

The glow of the undying contract gradually dimmed.

A Tauren skeleton appeared in front of Matthew.

“Matthew, what’s the meaning of this? I was just listening to some music at home!”

Peggy grumbled, and then she saw the situation in front of her. She pulled out her bone blade and said, “Who should I chop?”

Matthew pointed at the Susuva Magic Hound that was running toward him.

Peggy immediately went up and fought with the demon dog.

On the other side.

Due to Eli’s reckless advance, his position was held back by the Kobolds. Matthew had just commanded the Silvermoon Zombies to reinforce him when the Evil Arts Master Anderson had reached the sabre-toothed tiger with his mace.

At this moment.

Matthew could also tell that the second spell that Anderson cast was a kind of power infusion or physique-strengthening spell that originated from his Evil God.

This was because he saw Anderson’s body expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Thrust!

The black, thorn-like hair tore through the Evil Art Master’s robe.

As his body size soared.

Evil Art Master Anderson also revealed his hideous appearance.

The illusion of human appearance was broken. Under the moonlight, he became a giant gnoll that was two meters tall and had abnormally bulging muscles!

‘Die!t,

The huge Gnoll smashed the sabre- toothed tiger’S waist with its mace.

Eli couldn’t dodge it completely. He was hit from the side and immediately screamed!

Seeing this, the Kobolds attacked even harder.

Even though the Silvermoon Zombies had already rushed to the vicinity to support Eli, Anderson’s target, Eli, was in a sorry state.

The latter did not expect this Evil Art Master to have the terrifying close combat ability of a gnoll!

Anderson kept waving his mace.

Eli was slowly being cornered.

Helpless.

Eli could only hurriedly cast two buffs on himself.

Then, he prepared to wait for an opportunity to escape.

Matthew was also preparing to support Eli.

He took out his Withered Wood Staff and aimed it at Anderson’s back.

At this moment, the Evil Art Master seemed to be wholly focused on chasing after Eli, completely unconcerned about what was happening behind him.

All signs indicated that this was the best time to launch a sneak attack.

Matthew gripped his Withered Wood Staff tightly. He was indeed preparing to cast the strongest single-target spell he could cast- Enhanced Exhaustion Ray.

However, at this critical moment.

He suddenly remembered the third spell that Anderson had chanted!

“I’m a caster, so it’s illogical for him to ignore me. He had cast three spells, so what was the last one?”

What was the third spell?

Matthew stared at Anderson’s back, which was emitting red light, and chanted rapidly.

A second later.

Cold air burst out from the tip of the Withered Wood Staff.

Immediately after.

Then, a one-meter-long ball of white cold air enveloped Anderson’s body.

Whoosh!

A red light flashed on Anderson’s body.

The white mist instantly disappeared.

Matthew felt a sharp pain in the palm of his hand that was holding the magic staff!

A slight sense of nausea quickly rose in his heart.

[Hint: You have used the rank o cantrip ” Frost Mist ” on Evil Mage Anderson!] [You have suffered Einderson’s Counterspell (Magic Contract Enhanced)! ]

[Your Frost Mist has lost its effect. You will suffer the punishment of being countered.] [For 12 minutes, you will not be able to cast any spell of the same level as Frost Mist.]

[Your Focus-0.5 (Lasts for 18 seconds)]

[Hint: You have successfully identified and used a rank o cantrip to break the enemy’s Counterspell. You will soon have the opportunity to explore the elements of the Battle Domain.]

“I knew there was something else!

“And it’s a Counterspell that was strengthened by his Evil God!”

Matthew was secretly glad that he had sensed that something was wrong.

If he had used a Tier 2 spell, the punishment he would have to endure would probably destroy him!

Ever since Matthew had transmigrated, he had hardly fought with a proper spellcaster. This was his first time.

As expected, actual combat was different from theory. If Matthew had not been cautious enough, this vicious counterspell would have definitely made him suffer.

This planned Counterspell also made Matthew realize that Anderson’s target from the beginning was him!

As expected.

After sensing that Matthew had been punished by the law.

Anderson turned around.

He brandished the mace and quickly launched a surprise attack in Matthew’s direction.

The Kobolds ran even faster.

A small portion of them went past the Silvermoon Zombies and charged towards Matthew.

The rest of them were fighting with the zombies.

Seeing this, Eli hurriedly prepared to run back to support Matthew.

However, there was already some distance between the two sides. He could only barely catch up to some of the kobolds who were lagging behind.

“Hiss hiss hiss!”

Even Susuva’s Hound, who was fighting with Peggy, found an opportunity to shake her off.

This cunning demon sped up and wanted to attack Matthew from the other side.

At the crucial moment.

Peggy suddenly took a step forward and threw a bone blade in front of her!

Puff!

The bone blade that left her hand easily tore the demon dog’s head apart.

The demon immediately convulsed and fell to the ground.

Brain matter and blood mixed together and gushed out from the hole that had been cut open by the bone blade.

She couldn’t be bothered to deal with the demon dog.

Peggy pulled out her bone blade and went to Matthew’s side to protect him. “Don’t be afraid. With me here, no one can hurt you!”

The soul fire in her brain was burning brightly.

Her golden bones gradually turned into a noble dark gold under the moonlight.

A gratified smile flashed across Matthews face.

However, his attention was still focused on the gnoll Evil Art Master who was charging at him.

In the next moment.

He gripped the Withered Wood Staff tightly and focused his attention. He aimed at Anderson’s tall body and fired a solid ” Enhanced Exhaustion Ray.”

Anderson took the ray full of negative energy head-on.

Its body size had almost shrunk by a portion.

Under the weakening of the exhaustion ray.

Not only was Anderson’s life slowly fading, but his powerful attributes were also slowly decreasing.

However, he did not stop his assault.

The kobolds at the front had already started fighting with Peggy.

Fortunately, Matthew’s reinforcements had also arrived.

The Skeleton Dormitory was not far from here. Matthew used the Summoning of the Dead to summon 12 Skeleton Soldiers at the start of the battle. Now, they had finally arrived and surrounded Matthew in the middle.

“These bones can’t protect you!”

Anderson roared as he charged over.

His powerful mace smashed into Peggy, shattering her arm bones and sternum, causing her to stagger to the side!

This Tier 4 Evil Art Master’s close combat ability was evident!

Matthew stared at Anderson.

He quickly took two steps back.

He aimed the Withered Wood Staff in his hand at his opponent again.

Whoosh!

A grey light flashed.

[Hint: You have used the “Negative Armor Spell ” on Evil Art Master Anderson!]

[Anderson’s armor (Bio Fur) has been weakened to -1.]

“Your spells can’t hurt me!”

Anderson swept the area with force again.

Two skeleton soldiers were sent flying by him.

At this moment, there were less than 20 steps between him and Matthew.

However, when he saw Matthew’s face under the moonlight.

Anderson couldn’t help but feel surprised.

Because there was a confident and calm smile.

It was now!

“Kill him!”

Matthew whispered.

In the shadows that no one could see clearly, a skeleton with his hips twisting appeared silently behind the tall gnoll.

Anderson didn’t have time to turn around.

Firefly and Brightmoon had already landed impatiently on his thick neck.

The blade went in as if it was kissing a lover’s skin.

Stab–

Blood splattered before the sound.

His head fell to the ground with a miserable cry.

Under the moonlight.

The giant gnoll’s head rolled on the ground like a ball on the beach.

It happened to roll in front of Matthew.

Matthew lifted his leg.

He stepped on it heavily.

Coincidentally, at this moment.

Another group of figures came out of the cave.

They watched in shock as Matthew stepped on Anderson’s head.

His eyeballs squeezed out of the eye sockets.

Blood splattered up half a meter.

It dyed the Necromancer’s shoes and clothes red under the moonlight.
