A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees-Chapter 102 - : Rainforest Fever

Chapter 102: Rainforest Fever

Translator: Lonelytree

Nature’s Soul was formed by geographical environment and group consciousness often had its own temperament.

For example, the nature soul of the snow mountain loved to sleep and was very lazy in communicating with the outside world. It might not be willing to talk to

Matthew even with Matthew’s high affinity with nature.

The rainforest was different. It was young, lively, cruel, and warlike.

This was related to environmental factors. The rainforest was extremely rich in species and had dense ecological niches. All creatures found a path of evolution through constant killing.

The law of the rainforest was the survival of the fittest.

Therefore, the collective consciousness formed by these creatures was naturally violent and warlike.

Matthew had no choice but to accept the challenge from the Soul of the Rainforest! 𝗯𝐞𝗱𝗻𝐨𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝐧𝗲𝘁

If he avoided the battle, not only would he lose an opportunity to improve himself, but it might also cast a shadow over his future development in the nature domain.

“Wait a minute.”

Matthew immediately stopped after accepting the challenge. He said to Old Lucky and Lorraine, “I’ve run into some trouble, so I won’t be able to travel with you for the time being.”

The challenge of the Soul of the Rainforest was only targeted at Matthew. He did not want to drag Old Lucky and Lorraine down with him.

Under the puzzled gazes of the two of them.

Matthew explained, “Just now, I had some sparks with the nature soul of this rainforest. It has a lot of opinions about me now. It won’t be long before all kinds of wild beasts and monsters will come looking for us. I don’t want to implicate you. ”

Old Lucky looked at Matthew suspiciously. “You can communicate with the soul of the rainforest?”

Matthew didn’t elaborate. He just nodded and said, “It was a coincidence.”

Hearing this, Loraine immediately said resolutely, “How can we abandon our companions at a time like this? Matthew, no matter how many monsters come, I will fight side by side with you. I will be your strongest backing in battle!

“I was just worried that the journey would be dull and boring, and there would be nowhere to get materials. This is just right. Let me see what kind of monsters are in this rainforest! Unfortunately, no matter how powerful they are, they can’t compare to the sky giant I captured with my own hands!”

Old Lucky looked deeply at Matthew.

The next moment, he picked up the short knife and walked back.

“I won’t give up on my employer halfway. Besides, you’re not familiar with this area. If we go our separate ways, your chances of winning will be greatly reduced.

“However, can you tell me more about the attack of the jungle monsters?”

Matthew muttered, “It will last for about ten days. During the day, they might just be ordinary harassment. Usually, at midnight, the monsters will go crazy and attack.”

This was not Matthew’s random nonsense, but rather, he had captured the information fragments that the Soul of the Rainforest had revealed during his communication with it.

But Matthew wasn’t sure if it was just a smokescreen.

In short, in the next ten days, he had to be prepared.

After Old Lucky heard this, he chose another path and gestured for Matthew

and the other two to follow.

“The terrain here is not suitable for us to fight. I’ll take you to another place.

“We’ll go to the periphery of the Bitter Water Swamp. The terrain there is relatively open, and the terrain is not that complicated.

“The only monsters in the vicinity are the black-backed gnolls and the little mite monsters. Most of them are not a concern.

“There are only two things to be careful of. Occasionally, groups of ftvin-legged Flying Dragons will appear in that area, but the chances of us bumping into them are very low.

“In addition, the western part of the Bitter Water Swamp is the territory of a manticore. It had lived for a very long time, at least two hundred years, so try not to get close to it.

“Let me make this clear. If a manticore or wyvern appears, my priority is to protect myself.”

Lorraine laughed disapprovingly. “It’s okay. I’ll protect you!

He suddenly became a little excited. “How would the people of the future describe this experience?

“The legendary path of the great poet Lorraine had just begun?

“Uh, this title is a little tacky. Bards should praise others and not boast.

“Haha, I thought of the title of the new work. It’ll be called “Brave Matthew/Part 1: Rainforest Fever!

“Perhaps it could even be adapted into a stage play!

“The poster for the play will use the rainforest as the background, with your portrait in the middle, next to two beautiful Jango women with sparse cloth and admiring faces, and you can even hug them on both sides. How about that?”

Matthew patted him on the shoulder. “It sounds good, but remember to give me a portrait fee and a license fee when it becomes popular.”

In the west of the Bitter Water Swamp, on a wasteland with scattered reeds and thorns, Old Lucky was using a short knife to cut off all the plants that could obstruct his vision.

Matthew and Lorraine were also assisting from the side.

Matthew looked around and found that the piece of land that Old Lucky had chosen was indeed not bad.

First of all, the terrain here was relatively high, and the field of vision was relatively wide.

Secondly, it was dry land. It was far away from small rivers and streams. There were few weeds and shrubs, so it was easy to clean them up.

Lastly, there were not many tall trees nearby. It was equivalent to a small open space in the dense rainforest.

“Why is there such a place?”

Matthew noticed that this highland was not naturally formed, so he asked.

Old Lucky meticulously chopped the thorns.

“In the past, there was a mage living in the depths of the Bitter Water Swamp. He was a loner and did not like to interact with others. He also hated it when others approached his territory.

“Therefore, when the mage first arrived, he had several conflicts with the Jango tribe and some monsters in the rainforest.

“After a few rounds of fierce battles, the mages won the final victory.

“After that, no one was willing to approach this place, especially the beasts in the rainforest who had some spirituality..”
