A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees

Chapter 1072: Finger of Desire and Rock Barb

..

The Underworld Sect?

Matthew's heart skipped a beat.

Viscount Fan had indeed entrusted him to investigate the soul theft incident, but it was clearly not done by one organization.

Matthew had accidentally found the Church of Witherers.

However, this didn't mean that the people of the Underworld Sect were clean.

In fact, Matthew also noticed that this evil organization, which was originally only active on the East Coast, had recently grown stronger.

They had even organized some people to enter the cemetery where Olorin was.

This meant that the influence of the Underworld Sect was indeed growing day by day.

"What news?"

After greeting Viscount Fan, Matthew was all ears.

Viscount Fan said in a deep voice,

" I received a reliable piece of news from an informant. The Netherworld Cult has occupied a secret island in the Free Archipelago. They call that island Divine Dragon Island internally."

Divine Dragon Island?

Matthew raised his eyebrows.

Viscount Fan's choice of words was quite precise. He was not referring to the dragons of the Western Continent but the dragons of the Eastern Continent.

" It's said that the Netherworld Cult has imprisoned many divine dragons from the east on the island. They plan to use the souls of the divine dragons to refine a divine weapon. The large number of souls lost in the south is also related to this matter."

Viscount Fan continued,

"Coincidentally, at this time, I heard you calling for the Dragon Soul, so I came over to take a look. I also wanted to hear your opinion.

" After all, if you can inject the Divine Dragon's soul into the skeletal dragon, you might be able to obtain the legendary 'Heroic Skeleton Dragon'.

" You must know that the Heroic Bone Dragon's starting point is the Legendary Stage!"

Matthew didn't say anything.

He did not believe that things were really that coincidental. However, the Soul Summoning Formation he had set up in the Netherworld would definitely not be able to escape Viscount Fan's eyes and ears.

The other party guessed that he needed the dragon soul, so he wanted to do Matthew a favour?

Matthew felt that things might not be that simple.

"What do you want me to do?"

he asked bluntly.

Viscount Fan smiled.

"You know that I've never been willing to interfere with the operation of the material world. Therefore, I can only entrust someone else to handle the matter on the Divine Dragon Island.

" I hope that you and my informant can go to the Divine Dragon Island together and destroy the Underworld Sect's plan. You can even eradicate these evil cult members directly!"

This commission sounded quite normal.

Matthew was about to agree, but after two seconds, he reacted, and his eyes became sharp.

"That informant of yours, could it be Sener?"

Viscount Fan nodded.

"It's him.

" Sener has a grudge against the Underworld Cult. He's planning to head to the Divine Dragon Island to find a Death Flying Dagger that has fallen into the hands of the Underworld Cult's disciples. To you, the divine dragon or dragon soul on the Divine Dragon Island is of immeasurable value.

"If you can complete this cooperation, I will give each of you an extremely generous reward."

Matthew coldly refused,

"Thank you.

"But I can't work with a murderer."

Red-letter Hunter Sener.

He was notorious throughout the entire Aindor Continent, let alone the southern region.

Countless innocent people had died under his hands.

Most of them were unarmed civilians.

This seriously crossed Matthew's bottom line.

It was impossible for him to cooperate with the other party.

Viscount Fan's voice revealed a hint of confusion.

"I don't quite understand.

"You said that you can't work with a homicidal maniac.

" But you can have a teacher who's also a homicidal maniac.

"As far as I know, the number of lives that have died under Lady Isabelle's hands is much more than Sener's…"

Matthew said in a deep voice,

"Indiscriminately killing the innocent and killing too many people are two different things."

Viscount Fan thought for a moment.

" You mean Isabelle's killings are mostly out of fame or forced, but Sener isn't?

"But in my opinion, there is no difference between the two."

Matthew smiled.

"So I didn't think of convincing you."

Viscount Fan nodded lightly.

"Alright then.

" I don't agree, and I don't understand, but I will respect your opinion.

" In that case, I can only ask for help from others. However, please keep the information about the Divine Dragon Island a secret."

Matthew said with certainty,

"Of course."

Because Viscount Fan was involved, even if he knew that Sener was about to take action, he would not interfere.

Otherwise…

Matthew even planned to make a deal with the Underworld Cult.

" By the way, it's very difficult to summon a dragon soul with a soul-summoning magic circle like yours. Not only do dragons have their pride, but so do sub-dragons. After they die, they already have a place in the Underworld. Very few dragons will take the initiative to respond to your spell."

Viscount Fan kindly reminded him.

Matthew smiled helplessly.

"Of course, I know.

" But there doesn't seem to be a better alternative."

Viscount Fan thought for a moment.

"You can try going to the dragon tomb. More dragon souls dissipate in the dragon tomb. In some older dragon tombs, you might be able to gather a few dragon souls with enough weight by using a spirit-summoning spell.

" However, you'll have to find the location of the Dragon Tomb yourself. I can't tell you. It's against my duty as an envoy of the Underworld."

Matthew nodded in gratitude.

Viscount Fan then left.

Matthew rubbed his chin. To be honest, it was a pity to reject the offer of the Dragon God Island.

However, it involved the bottom line of principles.

He couldn't go against it.

Moreover, the risk of this cooperation was too great. Matthew did not trust Sener at all.
