A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees-Chapter 671 - : War Divide and Brand Spell
Chapter 671: War Divide and Brand Spell
Translator: Lonelytree
Matthew saw everything.
He was filled with emotions.
However, he could not help but increase the intensity of his slacking. At the same time, he was secretly happy. Fortunately, he was a mage!
He left these troublesome matters to Rheagar and Zeller.
He only needed to take care of his own land. This was not difficult for him. After all, the undead were always more obedient than the living.
While the other two were busy dealing with official business.
Matthew had already started to take stock of his gains from this war.
The first was the corpses of the six dragons!
According to the previous distribution principle.
Matthew got priority in dealing with the six bodies.
Dragons were full of treasures.
Their skeletons could be used to make bone dragons.
Flesh, internal organs, scales, and tendons all had their own uses.
Among them, Matthew had collected more than ten barrels of dragon blood.
This dragon blood could be used to make alchemical items or to mass produce powerful Dragon Blood Warriors.
Even if it was used to grow mushrooms, it seemed to be a good use.
As for the other things, he planned to entrust them to the alchemists within the Alliance.
After a series of high value-added production.
The corpses of these six dragons would bring Matthew a batch of good dragon equipment and high cash income.
Among them, the profits from the corpse of the Red Dragon Khuzulas were solely owned by Matthew.
The profits from the other five dragon corpses would be equally distributed to every member of the special operation team.
Matthew was a particular person.
He was never stingy with sharing his wealth with others.
Apart from the dragon’s corpse.
Matthew’s undead had suffered heavy losses in this war.
However, these losses paled in comparison to the new corpses he had obtained.
A few days after the war.
Every day, Matthew rode his pegasus and hung the lantern Viscount Fan had given him as he dragged corpses into the cemetery.
After this wave of operations.
There were more than 5000 corpses in the cemetery!
In order to facilitate the storage of the corpses, Matthew had asked the Troll Sinwak to dig two large graves. However, they filled up quickly.
It could only be said that the development of the cemetery was urgent.
Except for the corpse.
Matthew also received a large amount of war dividends, which mainly included the following three contents:
First, cash. The total value of the Red Dragon Khuzulas and Black Dragon Meonogas’s discovered assets in their respective territories was about 800,000 gold coins.
Matthew took 380,000, and the rest was the dividends for Rheagar and the other friends.
And 300,000 of the 380,000 gold coins were used to repay Soria’s interest-free loan, and 50,000 of the 80,000 that Matthew actually received was the capital. It could only be said that Fei Ziben’s spells indeed cost capital!
Fortunately, he still had cashback!
The 150,000 gold coins were a real positive benefit that made up for Matthew’s inner trauma.
In addition.
Both High Leaf Region and Red Mountain were facing the war reparations proposed by Rolling Stone Town.
The money was currently being negotiated within the Alliance.
As long as it was dealt with.
Matthew and his special operations team would also receive a high bonus.
This part of the profits was the real profit!
He just needed to wait.
Second, taxes.
Just as Rheagar had promised, Matthew received 15% of the tax revenue of the High Leaf Region for the next 30 years.
One step further.
Rheagar also suggested that every time Rolling Stone Town acquired a new territory, Matthew would receive the same amount of tax revenue.
This was also a form of repayment for Matthew becoming a registered mage in Rolling Stone Town during the war.
It was obvious.
Rheagar was also very clear.
Without Matthew, Rolling Stone Town would not have been able to win this war!
The third aspect was the gift of territory.
Previously, Rheagar had only given his land to Matthew as a private gift.
After the battle at the Moss Hills ended.
Rheagar made an official announcement through the City Hall. In the name of war rewards, he gave Matthew a larger area of land northeast of Rolling Stone Town and north of the farm area.
Not only that.
Matthew also obtained absolute autonomy in this land.
This treatment was on the same level as Ronan’s ownership of the Mage District of Rolling Stone Town.
The area of land that Rheagar gave this time was really exaggerated.
It was almost ten times the size of the land that he had given him previously!
The northernmost part of it even included the ghost granny castle near the border.
This area was named the Forest District.
Matthew was the master of the forest.
On this land.
Even Rheagar had to look at Matthew’s expression.
It was enough to show the sincerity of the former.
In fact.
Rheagar had also asked Matthew if he wanted to build a mage tower in the forest.
Matthew temporarily refused.
He was a Necromancer and a Tree Master, so he didn’t need a Mage Tower.
In a sense, the cemetery and the Sanctuary of Life had replaced the role of the mage tower.
However, Rheagar’s reminder also made Matthew realize that he really needed to build a more comprehensive experimental centre.
Other than that.
Matthew also received many additional rewards from Rheagar.
Most of them were directly handed over to Matthew’s friends.
He didn’t keep much for himself.
This victory and the rewards that far exceeded their expectations also gave Matthew’s team a better atmosphere.
Everyone had lived in the forest or cemetery for more than a week.
They got along quite happily.
However, happiness was always short-lived.
Everyone had their own things to do.
A week later.
Everyone started to leave.
Loraine returned to Deep Blue Harbor. His cousin, Lady Alena, needed his support, and he himself enjoyed the debauchery of Deep Blue Harbor even more.
Li Weiqi planned to head north to seek an opportunity to break through to Legend.
Clegg and Samantha were also planning to go north, but their destination was the plains north of the island. It was said that there were many orcs living there. Clegg planned to contact the local orcs before considering whether to mobilize them to counterattack Storluk.
Cloud Elf Amelia had returned to Cloud Edge City, and she was going to report to Lady Bobo.
On the other hand, Lumiere was invited by the city lord of Lion City to visit the city.
Of course, Matthew had guessed the Golden Lion’s ambition.
He told Lumiere that he could arrange a job for him here. 𝐟𝐫eewe𝗯𝐧𝚘ve𝐥.c𝚘𝚖
But Lumiere refused with a smile.
” I have a family to support. More than ten women and many children. This is a huge expense. I don’t want to cause you trouble.
” This war has given me some inspiration. I think I’m quite suitable to be a mercenary. I plan to go to Lion City to take a look first before deciding whether to accept the invitations of the various castellans to participate in various battles.
In the future, I will also consider bringing a group of warriors from the tribe to participate in the war in the south. I’m sorry, the war may be a disaster for the southern territories, but for us, it seems to be an opportunity.”
Matthew did not try to dissuade him this time.
Although Lumi?re looked honest, he was also a little silly sometimes, and he was actually a very smart and opinionated guy.
Once he decided on something.
It was also very difficult for him to change.
Perhaps becoming the King of Mercenaries was also the path that the future King of the Rainforest had to take.
“Then I wish you the best of luck in becoming the strongest mercenary in the South!”
Matthew smiled and gave his blessings.
After sending off most of the people.
The cemetery suddenly became a little deserted.
Fortunately, Matthew did not lack company.
Lara, Richard, Chuka the Thousand Transformers, Obast, Argus, Peggy, Soldier…
Unknowingly.
He was often surrounded by so many people.
Half a year ago.
He was still a bitter necromancer who planted trees alone every day and had to go to school during the day.
Thinking of this.
Matthew felt like it was a lifetime ago.
He calmed down.
He returned to his normal daily life.
His daily routine was nothing more than planting trees, building graves, talking to animals, occasionally planting mushrooms to brew wine, chatting with Peggy, playing dice with Renesme, and tutoring in spells. His days were quite fulfilling.
A month passed in the blink of an eye.
When September arrived.
The weather in Rolling Stone Town became less hot.
Matthew could clearly feel an abundant life force returning to the earth.
The restriction of planting oak trees every day also disappeared.
Matthew began to plant trees more diligently.
On this day.
Just as he placed a small sapling into the pit.
A new notification appeared in front of him.
[Hint: You have obtained a new side mission, ” Autumn’s Carnival
