Chapter 183: Is That All You Eat?

“I couldn’t understand her thoughts at all. Why would she still force these powerful necromancers to play her mini- games then?
“Perhaps this was the reason why she could not find a boyfriend in her life. “As her best friend, I feel sorry for her. She’s actually a very good person. It’s just that her mind has been affected by negative energy. Young man, you have to be careful too. The path of undying is not something that ordinary people can control.”
Matthew nodded with gratitude.
Of course, he knew about the negative energy’s influence on humans, especially on the brain, heart, and other organs.
Just like how arsonists always found it difficult to restrain their desire to set fire, necromancers were also easily tempted by negative energy and gradually fell into the abyss.
Generally speaking, this process would be significantly accelerated after the 4th rank. This was also the objective reason why high-level necromancers always gave people the impression that strangers were not allowed to approach them.
However, Matthew was different. He didn’t know if it was because of the tree, but he could feel that his body organs were protected by the power of nature. The negative energy caused little corrosion to his body, but in a sense, it stimulated the growth of the power of nature.
The two powers had formed a temporary balance in his body. Now that he had inherited the Art of Equilibrium, he did not have to worry about it in the short term.
Instead, it was the stone elemental lady’s words that piqued his interest. “So, was your relationship with Ms. Dania very close?”
“Of course, we were best friends. Otherwise, why would I take the time to help her clean up and look after this house?
“You don’t think that I’m like those silly undead, that I’m also a slave of Dania, do you? My home is in the stone elemental plane, and I just like to travel in the human world.”
The two of them walked to the fence, and the stone elemental stretched again.
“I need to catch up on my sleep later. I have a dance party to attend at St. Ji Island tonight.”
Matthew was stunned for a moment when he heard the name ” St. Ji Island.
Unfortunately, the stone elemental lady had already closed the fence door and quickly went to the backyard garden to sleep.
Everything was safe near the camp.
The swamp was humid, so Xiuyi thoughtfully lit two bonfires and hand-made two roadblocks. It was obvious that other than not being able to find this person during battle, this ace spy wasn’t bad at all.
Matthew found Bobo in a tent with a spanner’s flag. When he entered the tent, Matthew was stunned for a moment.
Apart from the helmet, the heavy armour had been stripped off to the side. Bobo was only wearing a white cotton singlet and a pair of white shorts made of the same material hung from her waist.
She had shrunk a lot and looked even more petite.
However, Bobo seemed to be in good spirits. She was half-squatting on the ground, hammering away at the joints of her armour with a wrench that was bigger than her arm.
“Are you alright?”
Matthew looked away uncomfortably.
Bobo’s voice was a little dejected.
” Unless you can give me some steel, screws, and a super workbench. Damn it, if only I had stolen the workbench that was nailed to the door next door when I left Cyberdragon. Ding Ding’s workbench is portable and can be expanded to this size.”
As she spoke, she gestured in front of Matthew.
Unfortunately, Bobo’s arm span was too short.
Matthew couldn’t imagine how big the workbench was.
He asked casually, ‘Who is Ding Ding?”
Bobo proudly puffed out her chest and said,
“He’s my neighbour. He’s a little brat who only knows how to forge iron. He’s about the same age as me and has had a crush on me since he was young. However, it’s impossible for me to accept him because he’s not even taller than me!”
Matthew smiled and said,
“That’s a pity, but he still has a chance to grow taller in the future, right?”
Bobo shook her head and said,
He has no chance. He’s a real dwarf. Most of the cyberdragon citizens are dwarves. Occasionally, there will be goblins and fairies. There are too few humans like me.”
As she spoke, she looked up at Matthew with some longing.
“Aren’t you necromancers very knowledgeable about bones? Can you help me see if I can still grow taller?
“My requirements are not high. I’ll be satisfied if I can be 1.5 meters, no, 1.4 meters tall!”
Matthew coughed twice.
“I’ll take a look at you next time. I’m very tired today, and I’m going back to rest. I just came to see you before I rest.”
“Alright, alright.”
Bobo shook her head and went back to fiddling with her armour, wearing a huge helmet that didn’t match her petite figure.
Two hours later.
Matthew opened his eyes.
He loosened his muscles and bones, then took out a few tea leaves and put them in his mouth to chew.
A short break wouldn’t allow him to fully recover his mental strength, but at least he could use some spells.
He was not in a hurry to leave his tent. Instead, he took out the spellbook and prepared to read it carefully. Then, he flipped open the title page.
[Warning: The incantations in this book have been reversed by me and written backwards. Reading it may cause mental trauma. Do not read it unless you are seeking death.]
Matthew was unmoved, but he still carefully flipped to the second page.
But what if this is a spellbook that doesn’t need to be read?
“Congratulations, you’re in luck. This is a spellbook published by the Feast Sect Lodge!
“Don’t flip to the back. You can’t understand the incantation at the back.. Just obediently enjoy this delicious food!”
