A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees

Chapter 1712: 465 Has anyone ever told you that you always spoil the atmosphere?_4

“Who would have thought you would still chase me here.”

“So, when I call you aggressive, it’s not an overstatement, right?”

“Mr. Matthew.”

“Why are you content to be a knife in someone else’s hand, turning everyone into your adversaries?”

Matthew said indifferently:

“Again, you are exaggerating. I’ve always been kind to others, and I have few enemies—if you have become my enemy, you should consider your own problems more.”

“I really don’t have many enemies, besides you, there are only Icanos the Destroyer, Lord of the Thousand Transformers, Jasliven, Demon Lord Asner, and the like.”

“As for Dragon Lich Stephanie, Evil Spirit Lord Omadochi, the current Starry Night God, and Red-letter Hunter Sener… I think at most we have some misunderstandings, not deep-seated hatred!”

Whenever Matthew mentioned a name,

he would deliberately watch Tarand’s reaction.

But Tarand was eerily composed, revealing not many flaws in the process, and instead, continued to plead:

“Give us a chance, pretend you never met me here, and let us go!”

“We could become great friends.”

“If you are willing, I could even offer you a domain for reproducing offspring, you might not know, but my body has unparalleled advantages in breeding…”

“Don’t you want to give it a try?”

“After all, I was once a goddess of the Heavenly Family Palace!”

Seeing Tarand behaving coyly,

Matthew instinctively felt something was amiss.

He watched Tarand’s pupils shrink slightly:

“Are you stalling for time?”

“What are your comrades doing underground?”

Tarand ignored this.

She still put on a pitiable expression:

“Are you really that heartless?”

“Must you force me into a corner?”

“If you insist on doing this, could you at least hear my story first?”

“Originally, I was just a clueless little spider that crawled out of Mother Earth’s nest…”

Matthew interrupted her:

“So, how old are you exactly?”

Tarand was taken aback:

“I can’t quite remember.”

“A thousand three, a thousand five, or a thousand eight?”

“Do you really care about my age that much?”

Matthew nodded:

“I was wondering, at your age, I don’t know how many gold coins would burst out if I hit you with Death’s Touch.”

As he spoke,

Matthew’s left hand rose slightly, and Death’s Touch suddenly surged from the ground, enveloping Tarand’s body entirely!

Atop the tentacle,

a multitude of suction cups wriggled madly, and a massive influx of negative energy was injected into Tarand’s body; in that instant, she faced several rounds of extremely strict instant death determinations!

“Ah!”

Tarand let out a wretched scream.

Her complexion instantly turned ashen, followed rapidly by her star-like luminous eyes dimming.

Clatter!

Matthew heard the sound of gold coins hitting the ground.

The next second,

a gap appeared in the void.

A vast number of gold coins continuously seeped out, piling into a small mountain of gold on the ground within a few breaths.

The mountain of gold continued to grow.

It began to rain gold coins from the sky.

The rain of gold coins grew heavier and heavier.

In a blink, it threatened to submerge the entire square!

Initially,

Matthew was amazed that the once Heavenly Family Palace deity was so wealthy.

But he quickly realized something was amiss.

“Not even the data bar has been deceived…”

“So, this illusion is quite mediocre…”

Even so,

Matthew was not complacent.

As giant waves rose from the sea of gold coins, threatening to engulf the diminutive Matthew entirely,

his body also underwent a dramatic transformation—

from a suave and handsome spellcaster,

to a hairy, vigorous monkey holding a bamboo stick!

“Shapeshifting Form: Eastern Immortal Ape”!

After the transformation was complete.

Matthew felt a boundless energy coursing through his body.

His eyes, like torches, easily spotted all the flaws in the illusion before him.

Then.

He took a step forward and, with the help of Ground Shrinking, easily leapt over the sea of gold coins and arrived in front of the incomparable giant spider at the end of the ocean!

In the midst of the illusion.

The sky was a clear azure, the sea golden, and between them lay a giant spider so large it could block the twilight of the setting sun.

She looked like a true Doomsday creature.

For a moment.

Countless scarlet compound eyes locked onto Matthew’s form.

“You…”

The giant spider hadn’t even begun to speak.

In a moment of distraction.

The agile Immortal Ape had already pierced through all mists, arriving right in front of her.

Wind, clouds, the sea, endless gold coins…

All within the illusion were left far behind by Matthew.

He raised his bamboo stick high and swung it down with ease.

Crack!

Bang!

Splat!

Three muffled sounds.

The first shattered the entire illusion.

The second directly smashed the Weaver of All Things Tarand’s skull.

The third effortlessly tore her soul apart!

…

“Prompt: You have killed ‘Former Weaver of All Things Tarand’ (Plague Demigod) using ‘Shapeshifting Form – Eastern Immortal Ape’.}

You have successfully killed a character from the Evil Camp.

Your Eastern Immortal Ape form has unlocked a new ability ‘Hate Evil’!

Hate Evil: Each time you kill a character from the Evil Camp (and their action must be filled with sins), the duration of your transformation will increase to some extent.

Current duration increased to: 13 minutes.'”

…

“This Eastern Immortal Ape is not only powerful but also has great potential to be tapped.”

“But this Tarand… she doesn’t take a hit well…”

Matthew looked at the large spider carcass before him with an indescribable sense of strangeness.

The Eastern Immortal Ape was indeed powerful.

And Tarand is now indeed just a minor demigod.

But that didn’t mean that after mingling in the Heavenly Family Palace for a thousand years, she had no means whatsoever to save her life.

Even though Matthew could feel that he had successfully torn her soul apart.

The scene before him still felt unreal.

After ruling out the influence of the double environment,

Matthew pondered for a moment, then decided not to dwell on it any longer and continued the pursuit.

The Eastern Immortal Ape smashed all the glass pillars he could see in the square with one strike.

Then, he reverted to human form and, following his Insight into mental power worms, found a huge hole at the edge of the plaza.

Matthew descended down the hole.

This time the fall lasted much longer, a full three minutes.

During the descent,

he even found himself slightly distracted due to boredom!

This phenomenon made him quite vigilant.

When Matthew’s feet touched the soft ground,

the temperature around him also changed dramatically—

“It’s so hot!”

“Have I come to the Earth Core?”

Matthew looked around in confusion and continued forward.

The next second.

He lost all ability to move his gaze—

There, in the deep undercity, was a vast and deep crater.

Matthew was halfway up a rock wall.

He spotted an extravagantly luxurious and magnificent huge ship!

At the stern of the ship hung a flag full of Eastern Continent flavor!

Several figures were gathered below the ship.

Someone seemed to be chanting something.

Just as Matthew considered approaching,

a voice resounded behind him:

“Has anyone ever told you that you’re always a killjoy?”

“You’re too quick on the scene.”

“Matthew…”
