A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees

This was the skull of Augustus.

Every 30 seconds, it could automatically fire a negative energy missile or undead fire.

The damage of these two spells was not low. According to Matthew’s test, their strength was between that of a 2nd and 3rd-rank Evocation spell.

More importantly, this was an action that cost Matthew nothing.

Just based on this point.

This weapon was a treasure that many necromancers dreamed of.

However, this was only the first feature of the Skull of Augustus.

The attributes of this thing were too powerful.

It was so powerful that the moment it was activated, Matthew used it to replace the Defensive Psalm and became his first spellcasting medium.

Necromancy effects increased;

100% increase in casting speed;

50% chance of double casting when casting Necromancy.

Although it had been downgraded by a Legendary spell, Thousand Miles Ice Seal, its power and coverage were both extremely fierce.

These were enough to prove the value of the skull of Augustus.

After a few rounds of testing.

Matthew observed that the Skull of Augustus increased his spell strength by 30% to 150%.

Especially Necromancy.

Any random double-casting would multiply the effect.

The bonus to instant death was obvious.

After all, the instant death judgment was a little too extreme.

You could survive this once.

Could you survive a second time?

Even if you could. You were probably sweating profusely.

It was special.

Matthew’s signature spell was especially remarkable due to the enhancement of the Skull of Augustus.

This was because each of the three cuts of Fatal Scissors was calculated according to the individual casting of the spell.

Therefore, every hit could trigger an additional double cast.

If the enemy was unlucky…

Maybe four pairs of scissors would appear every time!

This was a qualitative improvement to the coverage and attack of the battlefield.

Therefore, Matthew only played with the skull for a while before he couldn’t put it down.

As for the remnant soul of the Lich Augustus sealed in this skull…

Matthew was also curious.

According to the description of the weapon, he could ask Augustus ‘remnant soul three questions every week.

So Matthew activated the remnant soul.

In the next second.

A wisp of green smoke rose from the ball of light.

The green smoke formed the shape of a human face, giving people a sinister and terrifying feeling.

“My ignorant and foolish junior, what do you want to know?”

The voice of the Lich Remnant Soul sounded very heavy.

His accent didn’t seem human. Matthew guessed that Augustus should be from a demi-human race based on the shape of the mini skull.

Matthew took out the amulet and asked,

“What is your relationship with this amulet? Or do you know the master of the Odin Tower?”

Augustus immediately replied,

“Why don’t you ask your second brother about this?”

Matthew was slightly stunned.

He knew that the Lich Remnant Soul might not answer his question directly, but he did not expect the answer to be so ambiguous.

Was it because this question had nothing to do with Augustus himself or his weapon?

Matthew thought for a moment and continued to probe,

” I noticed that this weapon has lost its original power due to time. If I want to return it to the strength of a legendary weapon, what should I do?”

However, Augustus continued to mock,

“So the younger generation now likes open-book exams?

“Are you all morons?

” Can’t you use your own brain to increase the power of your weapon?!

“Idiot, I hate idiots!”

Matthew frowned.

But he vaguely understood Augustus ‘meaning.

On the data panel.

..

[Perception: You realize that Augustus will mercilessly mock you if you ask a question that is too simple and straightforward.]

[Especially if you haven’t done any feeding on that day.]

..

“So, is it related to feeding?”

Matthew turned on the feeding function and threw a mushroom into the skull.

..

[Prompt: You have fed a mushroom to the Skull of Augustus. The Skull of Augustus has activated its automatic defence mode.]

It will block most long-range damage for you, including arrows, crossbows, and evocation spells below rank 3.

In addition.

[You have received a casting buff: The illusion effect has increased!]

[Duration: 5 minutes!]

The feeding was successful!

Augustus ‘remnant soul’s satisfaction with you has increased slightly.

..

After feeding.

Matthew could clearly see the skull floating in his palm begin to spin around him.

It was like a stream of light.

It was unbelievably fast.

It provided Matthew with a powerful defensive ability.

Although it could only last for five minutes, it only cost him a mushroom. Matthew was already quite satisfied with the result.

Five minutes later.

Matthew summoned Augustus ‘remnant soul again and asked,

“If I want to improve my focus or magic power, do you have any suggestions?”

This was one of the two difficulties Matthew was currently facing.

These two things were not easy to improve.

Matthew’s mana was still good. The last time he saw Isabelle’s portrait, Matthew’s mana had increased by 1/5.

However, being focused gave him a headache.

The proper way to improve this was meditation, and there were no shortcuts to meditation. Matthew was diligent, but he didn’t have enough time, so it was difficult to improve his concentration quickly.
