" Thank you, Mother Nature!"
Matthew placed one hand on his chest and saluted in the direction where he buried Heiss.
The three new abilities obviously ca from the arsonist.
And they were all very practical.
[Heat Resistance] can reduce fire damage;
[Sprint] made up for so of the mobility;
And the constitution and toughness provided by [Tenacity] were what Matthew dread of.
Matthew rembered how Heiss managed to run hundreds of ters after being stabbed in the back that day…
This arsonist clearly had more than one ability that could increase his toughness.
Matthew was already content to get one.
" At present, it seems that nature's gift has no negative effects. From my senses, I've figured out that one oak tree corresponds to one burial."
Matthew's mind started to work.
Although he did not intend to turn the oak forest into a new cetery, if he encountered a suitable corpse in the future, he would definitely not let it go!
The only regrettable thing was…
Choosing Nature's Gift was equivalent to giving up the body of an undead creature.
In a sense.
Matthew sensed that this ability seed to be trying to lead him to the right path.
Even though the thod was sowhat strange.
..
In the next few days.
Matthew planted the trees diligently.
And Ella followed suit.
She looked at Matthew every day, hoping that he would change his mind.
However, Matthew chose to ignore her.
Even when she got too close.
Soldier would suddenly jump out from a corner and stab her!
This scared Ella so much that she flew all over the branches.
Of course, Soldier had no intention of hurting her.
He had only used Ella as a target to practice sneak attacks under Matthew's instructions.
Every ti he attacked, he would imdiately activate the Dark Night Cloak and disappear. This made Ella feel worried, and she did not dare to approach the ground.
However, no matter how Matthew threatened Ella.
The owl did not leave.
She tried her best to follow Matthew, trying to seize every opportunity to persuade him to join the Moonlight Society.
Unfortunately, tis have changed.
Until the night six days later.
Matthew finally found Ella and expressed his willingness to give her a chance, but only if Ella told the truth.
"Why did you leave the Moonlight Forest to find ? I want to hear the truth."
Matthew examined Ella's eyes.
The latter retracted her feathers and shrank back.
..
"This is the will of the Goddess of Moonlight. That day, I chased you away, but I was punished by the Goddess like never before. She struck with lightning 100 tis and then drove out of the Moonlight Forest!
"I have to bring you back! If I can't complete this mission within a month, my spirituality will be stripped away, and I will be banished forever. I will beco a muddleheaded beast... Please, Matthew, I really know my mistake!
"For the sake of the Goddess, please join the Moonlight Society!"
..
Ella begged.
Matthew was deep in thought. 'It's really related to the Goddess of the Moonlight. She actually paid attention to ? Wasn't it said that after the ascension of the Heavenly Family Palace, the connection between the Heaven Realm and the Material Realm had beco very weak?'
He thought about it.
In the end, he decided to return to Moonlight Woodland to take a look.
He knew very little about the gods of this world, and the Goddess of the Moonlight did not seem to exist in the ga in his previous life. Now that he had the opportunity to co into contact with her, he could not miss it.
As for the owl, Ella.
With Matthew's magnanimity, he naturally would not continue to bicker with her.
However, the necessary punishnt was still necessary.
"What? You want to enlighten your oak forest once a month for a three-year period?!" Ella exclaid, "Do you know how much energy I have to initiate enlightennt?"
Matthew glanced at her and said calmly, "It wouldn't kill you, right?"
Ella lowered her head.
It seed that she could no longer say a word.
..
In the second half of the night.
Moonlight finally shone through the clouds.
Under Ella's personal guidance.
Matthew once again stepped onto the ground of the Moonlight Woodland.
The mont he entered.
Three beams of moonlight flew up from the altar.
It landed on Matthew!
At that mont.
It was as if he was bathing in a hot spring.
All the pores on his body were relaxing.
..
[Hint: You have received the blessing of the Goddess of Moonlight, Moonwalker.]
[Moonwalker: When you walk under the moonlight, your Intelligence and Intuition increase by 1 point.]
..
[You have received the blessing of the Goddess of Moonlight, the Forest Guardian.]
[Forest Guardian: You have a full amount of Reputation and Legendary Points in the Moonlight Woodland. You will be able to go anywhere you want. You also have the ability to enter the Moonlight Woodland under the moonlight.]
..
[You have successfully joined the Moonlight Society!]
[Under the moonlight, your Shapeshifting becos a quickcast spell. All attributes of Shapeshifting 1!]
..
"Wow."
Matthew was amazed. This series of blessings ca so suddenly. Apart from joy, he also sensed a faint sense of danger.
"What does the Goddess of Moonlight need to do?"
He knew very well that there was no free benefit in this world.
Ella, on the other hand, looked overjoyed.
"Congratulations, Mr. Matthew, you have beco the first and only Necromancer in the Moonlight Society!
"Although you are not an official mber yet, thanks to the grace of the Goddess of Moonlight, you can enter and leave the Moonlight Woodland as you wish. Most importantly, my mission is completed. I finally don't have to worry about being expelled by the Goddess."
As she laughed, she actually choked up.
Matthew patiently waited for her to release her emotions.
Then, he asked the sa question again. "Or should I ask the goddess myself?"
As he spoke, he was about to walk towards the altar.
"No need, no need. I'm your guide. Let pass on the will of the goddess to you." Ella spread her wings and flew away. "Follow , Matthew. On the way, I'll introduce you to what you need to do to beco an official mber of the Moonlight Society."
Ella's voice echoed in the forest for a long ti.
Matthew noticed that the emblem of the Goddess of the Moonlight on the altar was gradually dimming.
He followed Ella all the way.
They passed through most of the forest.
Along the way, Matthew saw many Nature Souls.
They all had the appearance of small animals. Unlike the nature spirits he encountered when he was traveling in the oak tree domain, the natives of the Moonlight Forest were clearly lifeless.
They were spirits that symbolized vitality and nature.
However, in Matthew's eyes, they were not as lively as a skeleton soldier!
The natives looked at him in astonishnt.
At first, they were surprised and disgusted.
However, perhaps they felt the grace of the Goddess of the Moonlight, and most of them stopped for a while.
After a long ti, they looked at Matthew with reverence.
Their expressions and eyes were very stiff as if they were forced to admire Matthew.
"The situation in the Moonlight Woodland doesn't seem good."
Matthew noticed a detail. Along the way, he did not encounter a single Druid!
After all, even if humans or elven druids were busy in the material plane, there was a chance that druids would be born among the natives of Nature's Soul.
However, he did not see any of them.
This was very unusual.
He quickly followed the cheerful Ella and told her all his questions.
Ella lowered her altitude slightly.
" You're very sharp. There aren't many Druids in the Moonlight Woodland. It wasn't like this before. I still rember when I was young, and when I was just born, the Nature Souls in the forest were full of vitality. Every forest was inhabited by Druids. They would take the initiative to repair the scars caused by the passage of ti.
" But then a disaster happened, and the forest suffered a huge blow. Many Druids died, and no new Druids were born in Nature's Soul."
"Didn't you ask for help from the outside world?" Matthew asked curiously."
" Yes," Ella said with a sigh." We've asked for help from the Guardian Highlands, the Arctic Tundra, and the Azure Sea, but they rejected us without exception!
"Only a few young Druids who were traveling outside were willing to help us, but their power was not enough to change the situation, so this place beca what you see now."
As they continued to go deeper.
Matthew noticed that the trees on both sides of the forest were dying.
This ant that Moonlight Woodland was being attacked by evil forces.
"Why did the Guardian Watchers refuse to help?"
Matthew found it strange.
Ella flew down.
She stopped on a dead pine tree and looked around.
..
" Tis have changed, Matthew. Humans are getting worse, and the Druids are no exception.
"Although their reason for rejecting us is that they have also been attacked by evil and are unable to provide support.
"But I know the real reason. It's because we are Moonwalkers, and they are the favored ones of the earth."
..
Matthew didn't expect that the Druids would refuse to help because of their different factions.
From the information he had so far.
The Moonlight Society was an organization under the command of the Goddess of Moonlight, Assia. She might only have a very small amount of authority related to nature.
Ever since the disaster that Ella ntioned, the Druids who followed Moonlight had almost gone extinct.
The remaining druids on this continent were all mbers of the Earth Society, which should be an organization founded by a god who controlled the power of the Earth.
There was no doubt that the divine power of the God of Earth was much higher than that of the Goddess of Moonlight. The authority he held would also occupy more weight in the field of nature.
This was what led to the current situation.
To put it in layman's terms.
The Moonlight Society might have been glorious once, but it had fallen.
Matthew could basically understand why the Goddess of Moonlight had punished Ella and treated him so generously.
The situation in the Moonlight Woodland was so bad that the Moonlight Goddess was desperate.
Only Ella, this idiot, dared to chase away the people who might be able to help.
She chased Matthew away. It was little surprise that she was punished.
'However, I would probably be rejected by the Earth Society.' Matthew thought again.
..
"We're here."
Fifteen minutes later.
Ella stopped in front of a dark cave.
She rushed forward and said, " Your job is to deal with those disgusting bugs here. If you can kill a 'Mad Zerg', you will beco an official mber of the Moonlight Society, and the Goddess will bestow more grace on you."
At the sa ti.
The mission panel was also updated.
..
[Sub Mission: Kill Zerg]
[Description: The Moonlight Forest is being invaded by the Zergs. Kill them all and then extort a sum from the Goddess of Moonlight!]
[Reward: Goddess of Moonlight's Grace & Ability 'Battle Spellcasting']
