Chapter 298 Does the God of Death Also Like to Explode Gold Coins?

…

Carmela immediately walked around the stone pillar.

Then she made a red mark somewhere on the lower third of the stone pillar:

"Right here, go straight in, about eighteen inches or so."

"Can your fossils be covered in mud?"

Lorraine made a relaxed and freehand gesture:

"Stop talking about eighteen inches!"

"I can do it even if it's twenty-eight inches!"

As he spoke, he took out the piccolo from his waist and put it to his lips.

Matthew felt much more relaxed when he saw this.

Luo Lan said it casually, but he did not slack off because of this, but was quite serious.

A bard's spellcasting can be accomplished in a variety of ways.

But the spells cast by the most skilled instruments are the most powerful.

Since Luo Lan took out the piccolo, it means that he is very capable.

Didi beep!

Sure enough, cheerful music sounded, and each light blue musical note accurately hit Carmela's mark.

Under the influence of this music and magic.

The surface of the originally solid stone pillar suddenly became wrinkled like a pond.

Circles of ripples rippled from the center of the mark.

Tick ​​tock.

The stones in the surrounding area have turned into liquid, dripping down extremely slowly.

But thanks to Lorraine's efforts.

The mud fell downward for a certain distance, and then was thrown upward in an extremely abnormal manner, forming arcs in mid-air. In a short period of time, the mud and the stone pillars formed a stable closed area.

"quick."

Luo Lan urged vaguely.

Matthew looked at Carmela, who suddenly walked away quickly:

"Go get it."

"I just discovered that there is an item over there that contains a vast ancient aura. I need to check it out."

Matthew watched her leave.

After a while, he saw that Carmela had indeed grabbed something from the pile of treasures, and then walked aside and stared at the thing.

Matthew's expression was slightly strange.

Because if he saw it correctly, the thing Carmela was holding was a spittoon made of gold...

obviously.

The so-called ancient aura is just an excuse, she just needs some private time.

It just makes Carmela still a little lost.

Matthew couldn't help but become more curious about what she saw.

It's just that the other party didn't want to say anything, so it was naturally inconvenient for Matthew to ask more questions.

He glanced at the banshee next to him.

Brianta's condition is worse than Carmela's. I don't know if the brainwashing force is too strong. Now she is lying on the ground with her eyes rolled white and her arms stretched out, with drool hanging from the corner of her mouth. Demented appearance that has been ruined.

"I hope she can recover!"

Matthew calmed down, and under the urging gaze of Luo Lan, he quickly came to the melted stone pillar.

This stone pillar has been solidified by magic, so it cannot be entered using wall penetration or earth movement.

Matthew tried using his mage's hand in the mud.

However, as soon as he reached in, he felt a strong resistance, and there was an endless squeezing feeling from all around, which suddenly squeezed the mage's hand out!

Poof!

Matthew shook off the limp mage's hand.

"It's too soft! Give me something harder!"

Lorraine grinned.

Matthew then stretched out his right hand, but as soon as he put it in, he immediately pulled it out!

Nothing else.

The Hand of Balance contains a large amount of life energy and negative energy. This energy field is so powerful that it severely squeezes the mud state as soon as it enters. If it is forcibly entered, it is very likely that Luolan's fossil will become mud and fail. The entire stone pillar will be destroyed!

In this case.

The underground palace will fall into the star realm, and all previous efforts will be in vain.

"I didn't expect it would be so troublesome to get something out of the mud..."

Matthew pondered and used the third spell——

Claws of Astra!

The next second.

The soft tentacles silently pierced into the quagmire, arching inward with extremely silky smoothness.

Just once.

Then insert at least ten inches!

"This is acceptable!"

Matthew's eyes lit up, and he controlled Esdrael's Claw to move forward. Not long after, he touched something hard!

And at the moment of contact.

Matthew felt a burning pain!

He gritted his teeth and immediately wrapped two tentacles around it.

The pain began to increase suddenly.

Matthew didn't hesitate, endured the huge pain and pulled hard——

Bang!

Mud water splashed all over him.

Astra's Claw seemed to be burned by some kind of force. It originally had four tentacles, but now only two were left.

And on the ground in front of Matthew.

There is also an oval-shaped object wrapped in mud.

Matthew bent down to observe the object. Overall, it was in the shape of a round arch, with the tip slightly raised and the sides falling smoothly, like a hemisphere with many small bumps.

There is a crack on the top of the object, and there are sharp protrusions on both sides of the crack, like a pair of tiny tentacles. There are countless spiral stripes on the tentacles, giving people a mysterious feeling.

"Is this Guilty Crown?"

Lorraine also came over.

Matthew canceled Esdrael's Claw smoothly, but he could still feel a stinging pain in his left hand from time to time.

He understood that the source of the sting and burn was this object.

"The Guilty Crown's attributes are actually righteous!"

"And it is extremely righteous, masculine and fiery!"

Matthew pinched the fingers of his left hand, then switched his right hand to a healing hand, and then he could barely pick up the hot crown.

"So the name of the item is very likely to be a trap. Whether it is passed down by false rumors or stigmatized by later generations, many times if you analyze the name of an item based on experience alone, it is very likely that you will come up with a completely wrong estimate. ”

Lorraine shrugged:

"The simplest example is myself. I am known for my honesty in the circle of demigods. So far, only a few people know my job."

Matthew was slightly startled:

"So they really call you the Honest Demigod?"

Luo Lan smiled slightly:

"The loyal one, Lorraine, is me."

Matthew was speechless, but then he thought about it. Irondor's circle of demigods was not big, and there were probably only a few people.

It's normal for Lorraine to be deceived for a while.

Matthew held the crown and looked at it carefully. After only looking at each other for a few seconds, his eyes felt a little stinging.

It feels like looking at the sun.

He could feel the energy contained in the crown that was hotter than the sun!

That energy...

It seems to destroy everything!

"So the reason why Bator only took away the Holy Grail and not the crown was found."

"The Holy Grail left by Poole is indeed sinful and very suitable for the devil's bloodline, but the crown is different. It is an item with great righteous energy. Baator was unable to control it, so he gave the troll prince the opportunity to control it. , It’s a pity that the latter was unlucky and did not obtain the power in the crown after all.”

Matthew speculated:

"Perhaps because the Holy Grail has a greater reputation, people in later generations subconsciously thought that the crown was equally evil, so there was a misinformation about the name."

"It is possible that the trolls believed that it was these two items that killed their god Poole, so they were angry at the treasures. In their eyes, this crown should be sinful."

"Even if he shines as brightly as the sun..."

Speaking of which.

Matthew couldn't help feeling a little emotional. He could feel the history and vicissitudes contained in the crown. This feeling was melancholy.

"Do you want to see it?"

Matthew handed the crown to Lorraine.

The latter immediately waved his hand:

"No need."

"I'm not interested in other men's dicks, and neither are gods."

Matthew looked surprised:

"The legend about the Crown and the Holy Grail should be just a conceptual reference, right?"

Luo Lan smiled and said nothing.

After a while, he took out the Book of Hebrew Cards and his quill:

"To be honest, I feel like this thing is against me, and I will definitely get burned if I get it on my hands."

"Besides, I still have to write a manuscript."

As he spoke, he squatted next to him and started writing quickly.

Matthew was left to delve into the crown alone.

The next second.

He held the crown flat in front of his face, stared at the front of the crown, and the tentacles of his spiritual power slowly touched the surface of the crown.

But at that moment.

An extremely irritable voice sounded in Matthew's ears:

"This world needs cleaning!"

"Look at those people, there are so many sins on them!"

"Only the scorching sun and floods can wash away the filth in this world!"

The voice was extremely loud.

Matthew's ears were ringing from the shock.

Matthew almost took a step back because of this. He calmly asked in his heart:

"Who are you?"

"God Pur!"

said the grumpy voice.

"No, you're not!"

Matthew stared at the crown calmly:

"You are just a piece of spirituality that remains on the crown, which is completely different from the real god Poole."

The violent voice roared:

"There are so many sins in you, I have tolerated you for a long time!"

"How dare you disrespect me now, I will burn you to death!"

The words have not yet finished.

The crown's surface burst into flames.

Matthew, who was well prepared, quickly switched his healing hands to pale hands!

Terrifying negative energy poured out, and a cold breath spread to the area around him.

In just an instant, the flames on the crown's surface were extinguished.

"You don't deserve me!"

"Get off your dirty negative energy hands!"

The grumpy voice continued to shout in Matthew's ears.

Matthew said coldly:

"Yes, I don't deserve it!"

"But my toilet should be worthy of yours."

The crown roared:

"you dare!?"

Matthew threatened without mercy:

"If you continue to be rude and unable to have a good conversation, I will throw you into the pit and seal you for a hundred years!"

The Crown was silent for a few seconds.

Then he said in a bad tone:

"I will not accept a necromancer's threat to me!"

Matthew didn't give the other party a chance to continue speaking:

"If you can keep your word, it's no longer a threat!"

The next second.

Matthew quickly opened the demiplane and stepped into it.

He dug a hole anywhere and threw the crown in!

"etc!"

Wang Guan's tone was slightly flustered:

"I...I can temporarily take back my anger..."

Matthew walked away without looking back:

"But I can't take back my anger."

Snapped!

He casually threw a few pieces of bloodstained shrouds into the pit, and piled several extremely pure negative energy stones next to it.

After doing all this.

Matthew directly blocked the roar of the crown.

"This thing is more troublesome than the Holy Grail..."

Matthew frowned.

The Holy Grail only incited, tempted, and corrupted people, like a vicious demon witch;

The crown was like a complete fool, constantly forcing the holder to do something that he thought was extremely just, but was incredible to others.

"Extreme justice is really hot."

Matthew called Peggy to guard the crown personally.

He himself came to the mudflat at the edge of the demiplane.

Compared with the last time.

There are a few more wooden boxes here.

However, like the last time, the wooden boxes are still empty.

Matthew became more and more annoyed as he looked at it.

Suddenly.

He kicked a wooden box violently-

Crackling!

The wooden box was kicked to pieces.

Matthew felt very happy, so he kicked all the wooden boxes on the beach one after another.

After doing all this.

He felt relieved.

"No, my mood seems to be affected..."

Matthew rubbed his buttocks--

When he kicked the box just now, he used too much force and didn't stop, and his buttocks seemed to be slightly strained.

But it's not a big problem.

He glanced at the data column.

...

"Tip: Affected by the "Crown of the Gods", your mood has become very irritable!

You have gained a ray of justice power from the Crown of the Gods!

You have mastered the new ability "Justice Dagger"!

Justice Dagger: You can throw a dagger at the enemy. The target damaged by the dagger will be burned by the hot energy.

Last for 30 seconds.

Under the burning effect, the enemy will continue to reduce its concentration.

In particular, when you throw the Justice Dagger from behind the enemy, you will cause double the damage and the duration of the burning!

Note: Accumulate more justice power, you will have the opportunity to step into the justice field and gain more related abilities!

Warning: The justice field has a strong exclusivity. If it cannot be smoothly reconciled, it may cause damage to your other fields!"

...

"It is indeed because of the crown."

Matthew's heart moved, and he decisively opened the temperance field to soothe the remaining anger in his heart.

"I only had a brief contact with the crown, and I gained the ability from the realm of justice. What did the troll prince do?"

"Is it the justice dagger because I have mastered the short weapon proficiency? If I am good at other weapons, this ability may form characteristics that adapt to other weapons..."

Matthew thought secretly.

In any case, the crown of justice is a treasure, and Matthew can draw strength from it.

But extreme justice is too dazzling. If there are no protective measures, he may be swallowed by this power.

The unprovoked irritability just now is a warning.

"Maybe I should learn some sealing methods."

Matthew calmed down completely.

The demon seal can restrain the Holy Grail of Sin, but it cannot restrain the crown of justice.

So he needs a new sealing spell.

But this is not difficult for Matthew. In the realm of the dead, there are some useful spells to taint justice!

When he left the semi-outside, he was still daydreaming:

"What if I put the crown and the Holy Grail together?"

"Forget it, these two things are left by the gods, and their own energy is very powerful, but they need to be guided and developed. Before I have a legend, it is better not to let them meet each other."

Return to the suspended island.

Matthew looked back and saw that Roland was holding a feather pen and writing quickly.

From the strange smile on his face from time to time, he could guess.

He must not be seriously creating at this moment.

And Carmela.

She was still in a daze, but the thing in her arms changed from a golden spittoon to a golden pony.

Is that a pony?

Matthew looked at the protrusion on the pony's back.

A little unsure.

The two legendary bosses each had something to do, so Matthew had to sort out the spoils by himself.

Prince Philip's burial objects were extremely gorgeous.

A large pile of gems piled together, as bright as the starry sky on a summer night, were priceless at a glance.

However, when Matthew really counted them, he found out.

"I've been fooled!"

"Prince Philip's burial objects are far less valuable than his two brothers on the upper two floors!"

Matthew's expression was quite complicated.

The reason for this is that Philip's burial objects are mainly composed of colorful amphibole.

In the era of the Troll Empire.

Limited by mining methods and distribution in nature.

Amphibole, a magic stone rich in elemental energy, is a very precious thing. Each amphibole is worth a fortune, especially the red, blue and yellow amphibole, which is extremely precious!

There are a lot of red, yellow and blue amphibole in Prince Philip's burial objects.

This may be a symbol of wealth at the time.

But now.

Times are different.

The secret of artificial amphibole has been broken through by enchantment magic, and Roderick's alchemy factory can already mass-produce a variety of high-end amphibole.

Since then, the value of this thing has plummeted.

Matthew estimated that if the total amount of the amphibole here could be sold for 200,000, he would be lucky.

"I heard that the artificial amphibole was developed by Surel, and she kept the source secret at first.

Later, due to the large amount of amphibole flowing into the market, other mages imitated it, and more artificial amphibole appeared on the market.

After that, she cooperated with Roderick and established the amphibole factory in the north..."

Matthew smiled bitterly and shook his head.

The final harvest of this trip was not as high as expected, all because of Surel!

Of course, Prince Philip himself also had problems.

If he could be as honest as his brothers, leaving some fine gold, secret silver or other magic gems, it would be great!

In addition to the amphibole on the ground.

Matthew also found some interesting items or props——

…

"Disciple Scroll*2 (Consume this scroll, you will have the chance to be recognized by a random foreign master, and after a series of tests, you will become his disciple.

When the scroll is consumed, if there is a foreign master around you or you are being watched by him, you will have the chance to become his disciple directly.)"

"Instructor Spear (When a humanoid creature with a strength greater than 14 points and at least one arm holds this spear for a week in a row, he will be transferred to a "spear thrower")"

"Transformation Amulet (When you wear this amulet, the effects of all your spells and abilities in the transformation field are slightly improved. In particular, after the transformation, you will gain A layer of hidden magic shield. When and only when your transformed form is severely damaged, the magic shield will automatically open and exempt that damage)"

...

"Tamilo's Transfiguration Ball (every week, the Transfiguration Ball will refresh the target of the Transfiguration Ball.

During this period, if you use the Transfiguration Ball's Transfiguration ability, you will be transformed into the target and inherit all the appearance and details of the other party.)"

"Unknown Legendary Scrolls * 3 (Your knowledge cannot identify the true content of these three legendary scrolls. Only the blood of the troll can open the use of the scrolls)"

"Tamilo's Secret of the Human Body (a book that explores the mysteries of the human body itself. With this book as a medium, you will have the possibility to master the flesh and blood field)"

...

Matthew didn't expect to find the Disciple Scroll here.

This thing is a rare thing. Only the higher-level foreign masters have the ability to make it by themselves.

The foreign master that Isabel asked him to work part-time before only had Leila as a disciple.

And with this disciple scroll.

Matthew can continue to develop this profession and recruit more disciples for his own use.

The role of the instructor's spear and the transformation amulet are obvious.

The former can train Matthew's spearmen indefinitely. Although the full production capacity is only 48 per year, it is definitely a fortune as time goes by.

Matthew plans to take it back and let the zombies try it first. If the zombies don't work, he will look for other races.

The latter can enhance the effect of the transformation field, which is equivalent to adding a life-saving magic shield in the wilderness form. Matthew likes it very much.

After the inspection, there was no problem.

He put it on on the spot.

As for Tamilo's transmogrification ball, this thing is probably just fun.

Matthew took a look.

The current transmogrification target is "rooster".

As long as Matthew wants, he can make his appearance look like a rooster, but in fact he is still a human.

This is the effect of transmogrification.

Matthew estimates that although the illusion effect of this transmogrification ball cannot reach the legendary field, it is definitely at the peak level of the fifth level.

This shows.

This Tamiro must have been a powerful wizard when he was alive.

Matthew recalled.

He actually found Tamiro's origin in the tomb information -

"It turned out that she was Prince Philip's wife."

Matthew suddenly realized.

The remaining three legendary scrolls and the book were also left by Tamiro.

He carefully put away the three scrolls.

It's better to be safe than sorry. Who knows if there is a vicious curse attached to the scroll.

As for the book.

Matthew pondered and turned out the herbal secret book of Tamiro that he had found before.

He stacked the two books together.

The evil power became more obvious!

"Flesh and blood, voodoo... It's really not a good field."

Matthew was secretly alert.

He cast a protection against evil on himself, and then reached out to open the two books.

However, his action was not yet completed.

Loran's voice came from the side:

"You'd better not touch those two books."

Matthew looked back and saw that Loran was still chatting with Rosie. The quill in his hand was even replying, but he looked up at Matthew:

"You can touch it, but you must take protective measures."

"The protective measures I mean are at least advanced or even higher protection against evil."

Matthew retracted his hand:

"Do you know Tamilo?"

Loran shook his head:

"No, but I can feel a familiar breath from those two books."

"Remember Axitana?"

"The dusk creature that polluted Flynn's demigod status?"

"Everything I did in Zeshui City before was to get rid of Axitana's mark. It's troublesome to be targeted by Him!"

Matthew's heart moved.

Immediately he looked at Asitana on the watch list and smiled bitterly:

"I think I've been targeted by Him."

"I was a little confused before, but now I understand that the medium through which He targeted me was these two books."

Luo Lan put away his quill, stood up and walked over:

"In this case, you will be losing money if you don't read these two books carefully."

"Anyway, I have already felt the gazes of many dusk creations on you, and it doesn't hurt to have one or two more."

Matthew thought for a while:

"So Prince Philip's wife, Tamiro, is actually a believer in Ashitana, the Creation of Dusk?"

Lorraine nodded:

"It's very possible, but the greater possibility is that Tamiro is Asitana himself!"

"Don't look at me with such a surprised look. The Creator of Twilight is not afraid of doing something cold. Not to mention trolls, even goblins will do it as long as they can achieve their goals."

"Although the fall of the troll empire was led by Baator and the gods, other forces may not have taken the opportunity to get a share of the pie."

"Asitana is the more active and weaker among the dusk creations. He only controls the realms of flesh and blood, voodoo, plague, etc. He loves to create clones and then influence the human world.

It is said that at most, there were more than a dozen incarnations of Asitana walking in the Prime Material World at the same time.

What's even more outrageous is.

Since these incarnations have no memory of each other, they even fought with each other..."

Lorraine explained the news about Asitana wantonly.

After listening, Matthew quickly put the two books away.

He must read these two books.

but not now.

Now he is not ready to face the creation of dusk, even the spiritual imprint.

At the very least, you need to have more divinity!

While the two were talking.

The succubus Brianta slowly wakes up.

But her condition still looked very bad, her eyes were blank, and she couldn't stop drooling from her mouth.

"Sorry, Matthew, I made a mistake."

Carmela came over holding the golden pony:

"The brainwashing technique has backfired, and her memory has been almost completely washed away. However, she knows very little about it. If you are interested, just ask me directly."

Matthew nodded.

He did not directly ask what Carmela discovered during the brainwashing, but made a lighthearted joke:

"You have been holding these two gold products just now. Did you discover something?"

Unexpectedly, Carmela actually nodded:

"There is a discovery."

"What?"

Matthew looked curious.

Carmela stuffed the golden pony and golden spittoon into Matthew's arms:

“Both things are gold-plated.”

Matthew weighed the items in his hands and sighed again.

Sure enough it's not pure gold.

This means that earnings will drop a little further.

However, no matter how thin the mosquito legs are, they are still meat. With this mentality, Matthew still put these two golden things away.

Then he took over Brianta, the banshee, through the undead contract.

The latter was brainwashed and became delirious.

It was easy to become Matthew's person.

…

"Tip: You have obtained a new summoning object "Banshee-Brianta"!

You command Brianta to open to you the realm of the tomb that she controls!

The command was successful!

Brianta's loyalty dropped to 60 points!

You annexed Brianta's Tomb Realm, and during this time, a spell you mastered resonated with the Tomb Realm!

Your spell "Esdra's Claw" has been upgraded to "Death's Touch" with the enhancement of the Grave Realm!

Compared to the original version of Esdrael's Claw, Death's Touch has the following additional effects -

-

The number of tentacles is doubled, that is, you can get eight tentacles at the same time;

-

The dimensions, length and number of suckers of the tentacles have been doubled; -

The touch of death will cause higher damage to people who are older and closer to death in terms of life span, and the success rate of death judgment will be higher; -

When Death's Touch kills a unit over a hundred years old, you may get some gold coins from the storage items carried by the target unit! "

…

Death's touch?

The improvement in the effect of this spell is a bit interesting!

Matthew touched his chin. He could feel the malice directed towards the old man from the touch of death.

"Could it be that the God of Death also likes to explode gold coins?"

He just thought so.

A strong arcane wave suddenly came from the sky above the island in the middle of the lake!

All three of them felt something in their hearts and quickly looked over.

But I saw a portal quickly forming in that area.

Immediately afterwards.

Two rather graceful figures walked out of the portal.

Matthew has sharp eyes.

Those are two goblins!

One of them seems familiar!

…

"Hint: You encountered the elf warlock "White"!

You encountered the great goblin "Tasha" (the incarnation of the Midnight Queen)

Note: The Midnight Queen once paid special attention to you. "

…
