A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees - Chapter 337

Chapter 337: The Secret of the Suki Family

Mages were also cunning and cherished their lives.

Matthew could make them work for him in the name of the alliance project. Whether it was planting trees or exploring the outer plane, they were willing to accept it.

But once it involved war, it was hard to say.

In the end, they were just a group of intermediate mages. If they worked together, they would definitely have a great impact on the war, but why would they do that?

Matthew knew very well that he was not Ronan or Isabelle. No one would risk their lives for a few Knowledge Points.

Spending money was one thing, and risking one’s life was another.

But thinking about it carefully.

This project could have a positive impact on the upcoming war.

” We can spread some news, just like how I pretended to be the Great Mage Ronan last time. At least we can distract the enemy.”

Matthew suggested, ” No matter how reckless the new lord of Red Mountain is, he should still be wary of the Mages of the Seven Saint Alliance.”

Zeller nodded.

I’ll get someone to spread the news, but we have to enter a state of war. The lord’s guards and garrison are ready. Next, we have to mobilize the militia in some villages in the north. We need more labour and reserves. If necessary, we have to build some fortifications in the south.”

At this point, he glanced at Rheagar and suddenly shouted,

“Madam Wesley! Coffee!”

A moment later, three cups of fragrant coffee were served in the office hall.

Only then did Rheagar realize that he was holding an empty cup. He pursed his lips helplessly and sat back in his chair stiffly.

Zeller looked at him silently as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Matthew didn’t say anything. He was thinking about the impact the war might have on Rolling Stone Town and himself. “There’s another piece of bad news.”

Zeller said,

Jade Court has sent another urgent letter. The Shadow Leopard Unit that was used to capture the arsonists encountered another attack on the road. This time, the one who attacked was confirmed to be the Green Dragon, Fattina, who was active in the Court of Fallen Leaves. Although the Shadow Leopard Unit wasn’t completely wiped out, they suffered heavy losses. That Green Dragon is very cunning. In the short term, Jade Court probably won’t be able to take in this batch of prisoners. This is bad news for us.”

Matthew smelled a conspiracy.

Every time they send someone over, they will be attacked. This doesn’t sound like a coincidence.”

Zeller also looked like he had a headache.

“The problem is, how should we deal with these arsonists now? It would be a waste and inhumane to kill them directly. Some of them don’t deserve to die, but it’s not right to keep them like this. Once the war breaks out, the prison will become a hidden danger.”

Matthew thought for a moment.

“Why don’t you leave it to me first? I happen to need manpower for a project. I don’t need you to provide food. I can solve their meals myself. If you want them back, just let me know in advance. How about that?”

Zeller and Rheagar looked at each other. The latter asked, “Are you sure they won’t run away from you?” Matthew smiled.

Don’t underestimate me. I’m an evil necromancer.”

The two of them discussed for a while and finally agreed to Matthew’s request. They handed over the more than 20 arsonists in the prison to Matthew to deal with.

There was an extra group of hands.

Matthew was naturally delighted.

It would be best if these arsonists were obedient. If there were any troublemakers, he did not mind asking Big Brother 177 to come out to meet them.

” The two news just now were bad news. I have another piece of news.”

Zeller’s tone suddenly became lighter.

‘ After receiving Rheagar’s letter, the city lord of Deep Blue Harbor, Lady Alena,

pay a visit. This time, she will be travelling light and will arrive at our territory in five to three days.”

Rheagar was shocked.

“Why is she in such a hurry? Didn’t I tell Alena to take it slow?

” Coincidentally, we’re in the midst of a war in the south. I’m afraid I don’t have time to accompany her…”

Zeller suddenly said sarcastically,

“Maybe she’s afraid that her stomach won’t be able to cover it if she’s too late.” Rheagar immediately rolled his eyes.

Don’t listen to the rumours. Alena is a very traditional woman. After she broke off the engagement with me, she remained single for the rest of her life. Her seven daughters are all adopted daughters, and Lady Alena is still a virgin. It’s really rude to joke about this!”

Zeller couldn’t help but put his hand on his forehead, and a painful expression appeared on his face.

Oh my supreme-ruler, Rheagar, has your IQbeen eaten by moles recently?

“I’ve already hinted so clearly, and you still haven’t realised the truth?

“You’re not really planning to continue your relationship with that lady, are you?”

Looking at Rheagar’s anxious and slightly confused expression.

Matthew couldn’t help but remind him,

” There’s something wrong with Lady Alena.

” We know a thing or two about the current situation of Deep Blue Harbor. Lion City in the north is preparing its troops. A large amount of territory has been annexed by Lion City. Therefore, Deep Blue Harbor is facing a much bigger war than us. Under such circumstances, as soon as you replied, she dared to come to Rolling Stone Town alone at the risk of something happening in Deep Blue Harbor. This is obviously not right.”

Zeller added coldly,

Any normal person would be able to tell that something is wrong. The only explanation is that her position as the City Lord is probably in danger!

“She is coming to ask for your help, Rhaegar!”
