This Necromancer Just Wants to Plant Trees

His surface-level madness stemmed precisely from an unbelievable depth!

Demmo's heart was filled with disbelief.

This emotion peaked at the moment Matthew pulled out the "River Bed Sand of the Rootless River"——

"How is this possible!"

"You actually possess such a sacred object?!"

Demmo finally lost his composure completely.

His face was filled with an expression as if he had seen a ghost.

Matthew smiled calmly.

He was just about to crush the sand in his hand to deliver a soul-level fatal blow to Demmo.

But at that moment.

He suddenly discovered in shock that no matter what, he couldn't touch that grain of sand anymore!

On the data bar.

...

Warning: The River Bed Sand of the Rootless River has been sealed, you cannot use this item for the next thirty minutes.

Sealing Source: Shadow Secret Technique.

...

Matthew slightly tilted his head, then looked back at Demmo:

"Are you sure you want others to intervene in our duel?"

Demmo's eyes flickered uncertainly, but he remained silent.

Not far away.

A silhouette, as expected, slowly revealed itself.

Dammon.

Unlike before.

Matthew noticed that Dammon was now wearing a blue and white robe.

His arm had already grown back.

At this moment, Dammon was holding a short weapon in each hand.

These two weapons seemed to be a pair.

Through spell identification and knowledge.

Matthew quickly made a judgment:

"Both of these short knives are of the Dagger of Equality level weapons, even their rank is higher..."

And a wealth of related information started pouring into the data bar.

Matthew hurriedly picked the key points to look at.

...

"Frost Shadow & Winter's Break (Legendary weapon/divine artefact)

Description: Left behind by Aindor's greatest Frost Elf Assassin and ice poet in history, who assassinated gods and also slain Superior Legend rank mages as a divine being...

Special Characteristic——

Frost Shadow: Within a certain distance, each attack by Frost Shadow will permanently steal the target's mana.

Winter's Break: Within a certain distance, each attack by Winter's Break will permanently shatter the target's focus."

...

"I say, getting close to you two is really no easy task."

Dammon said with a sigh:

"The negative energy here is so dense it can turn a Winged Dragon Wind God into an undead within ten seconds."

"Fortunately, my unfortunate father left me this outfit, or I wouldn't dare to join in the fun."

Matthew glanced at his attire.

This blue and white robe was indeed unusual.

It seemed to be able to significantly resist the erosion of negative energy, but the more important reason Dammon could stand here was obviously the Divine Phoenix Blood Tear on his neck.

"You must have hidden these two weapons with great difficulty."

Matthew said thoughtfully.

To his surprise, Dammon shook his head vigorously:

"Not difficult at all."

"Among the Alliance's upper echelons, the existence of these two weapons is practically common knowledge."

"Did you think Link almost eradicated Shadow Prairie from existence merely because my unfortunate father assassinated a Legendary-mage?"

"Heh heh..."

"He intended to do so, but failed, and during the operation, exposed the existence of this pair of divine artefacts."

"The spellcasters were terrified of the characteristics of this pair of artefacts, so Link found an excuse to make a move, and eventually took out my unfortunate father and the others in Shadow Prairie!"

"But afterward, they found that even with their abilities, they couldn't destroy these two divine artefacts, so they could only seal them."

"Heh heh heh..."

"You must really want to know how I got my hands on them after they were sealed by the Alliance, right?"

"Unfortunately, that's another story, but with your intelligence, you should be able to deduce most of it. After all, in a thoroughly corrupt organization, what can't be done?"

As he spoke.

Dammon waved the glowing white short weapons in his hands meaningfully.

Even though both sides still maintained a certain distance.

Matthew still felt a peculiar suppression:

"Focus and mana have become dull..."

"If I get a bit closer, his attack moves might officially take effect!"

"Such overpowering weapons, they are a deadly threat to spellcasters..."

Feeling the pressure from Frost Shadow and Winter's Break.

Matthew's eyes also became extremely dangerous.

With a cheeky grin, Dammon walked in the direction between the two people.

Matthew suddenly noticed that Demmo's state wasn't exactly relaxed either.

As Dammon moved forward.

Their eyes met for a second or two, but always seemed to carry an unspeakable emotion.

Matthew even felt that Dammon seemed to be hesitating about something!

"I'll hold him off."

"You go kill him, quickly, our opportunities are running out!"

Demmo said urgently.

Dammon stopped, did not act, and his gaze drifted back and forth between Matthew and Demmo.

Matthew said with interest:

"What are you thinking?"

"Thinking of taking both of us out together?"

Demmo's face darkened:

"Don't listen to his nonsense, Mr. Dammon, I know you won't be so stupid as to betray an ally at this critical moment."

"Think of your father!"

Matthew smiled more brightly:

"Look, he's scared!"

Dammon frowned.

He no longer looked at Demmo, but instead gazed seriously at Matthew:

"Aren't you afraid at all?"

"You two are restraining each other, do you still have any focus left to resist me?"

"In a sense, Mr. Ritz's reaction is the most genuine, your lives are completely in my hands!"

Matthew pouted, saying nothing.

He still had an expression of great disappointment on his face.

"Enough!"

Demmo shouted loudly:

"Do it now, Dammon!"

Yet Dammon was not moved at all.

He just looked at Matthew, frowning deeper:

"Do you really not want to persuade me?"

"Do you not want to give me a reason to side with you?"

Matthew shook his head.

Dammon gritted his teeth.

Under Demmo's urging.

Dammon took two steps toward Matthew, suddenly, he spun around, and said to Demmo:

"Something's not right."

"This kid seems off."

"I don't dare approach, if you don't try harder, I'm out of here!"

Demmo screamed in frustration:

"I'm already giving my all!"

"His state is worse than mine, don't be fooled by him..."

Yet no matter how much Demmo tried to persuade.

Dammon kept shaking his head and retreated without looking back!

Above the clouds.

Once again, only Matthew and Demmo were left staring at each other.

"What a realistic guy..."

Matthew's sigh had not yet fallen.

Extreme pain suddenly came from his back and waist.

Immediately after.

That heart-stopping warning sign arrived!

"This is a new ability I've learned, called 'Return and Revisit'."

"How would you evaluate it, Mr. Matthew?"

Dammon's slightly teasing laughter echoed faintly from behind Matthew.

Matthew quickly turned his head.

On his face there was no panic or fear as Dammon had expected.

What there was.

Was an unyielding murderous intent.

Suddenly.

Matthew's hand silently grabbed Dammon's waist.

"Just right, I've also learned a new ability."

"Would you care to evaluate it?"

In a moment.

Wave upon wave of negative energy tightly wrapped Dammon.

Matthew effortlessly lifted him up with one hand, like grabbing a cat barehanded.

The next second.

He stepped into the void with the fiercely struggling Dammon!

...

'Bury (Legendary Ability): Ignores instant-death resistance and legendary resistance, you can directly bury any unit...'

...
