Chapter 45: Birth of Evil
Translator: Lonelytree
” Moonfire: Guide a ray of moonlight to attack the target. When it hits, it will deal fixed damage. After 15 seconds, it will continue to cause Moonlight Scorch damage.
“When you cast Moonfire under the moonlight, the damage dealt will be doubled.
“Moonfire could not cause any damage to golems.
“This spell deals an additional 100% damage to undead creatures…”
Matthew made a straw doll and tested the damage of Moonfire indoors and outdoors. It could only be said that it was a little sad.
“The double damage from the moonlight is only equivalent to a level 5 – 6 spell. Without the moonlight, it barely scratches the enemy. Although the badge had the ability to release moonlight and could deal damage in most
situations, it was still too weak.”
Matthew was not very satisfied with this spell.
One of the few advantages of Moonfire was its low mana consumption. The burning effect had a certain tactical significance, and… it looked pretty?
“Suppressing undead creatures is also an advantage.”
Matthew comforted himself.
In fact, he did not expect much from the spells bestowed by the Goddess of Moonlight. She was a god, not a mage. Her spell level might not even be as good as some fourth or fifth-tier mages.
The advantage of the gods was that they could use their divinity to imbue their spells.
However, after the ascension of the Heavenly Palace, they were no longer able to cast divine spells on the human world.
Matthew believed that this Moonfire spell should have been a divine spell created by the Goddess of the Moonlight. Later, the Goddess had to modify it so her believers could use it.
Thinking about it this way…
The Goddess was in quite a quandary. No wonder she was so humble.
‘ However, the Goddess of Moonlight’s low profile may have existed since the Age of Enlightenment. Her domain is the moonlight. This means that the domain of the Moon has already been taken by some other divine. Her power will be limited.”
Matthew rubbed his believer badge and thought casually,
‘ But Ella once mentioned that the Moonlight Woodlands had a period of glory.
Could it be that She was once the Goddess of the Moon and not just the Goddess of Moonlight?”
However, it didn’t matter.
Matthew quickly walked back to the hut and politely praised, “Praise the moonlight!”
In the following days.
Matthew’s focus in life returned to reality, especially planting trees. He used the extra time to search for potential Witherers. Unfortunately, his divination skills were really weak. When he divined the location of the Witherers, he somehow saw a woman coming out of the bath.
Judging from the architectural style behind her, it was obviously a craftsman’s district or a commercial district in Rolling Stone Town.
However, that woman was clearly not with the Witherers.
Afraid of being perceived as a peeping Tom, Matthew hurriedly covered the crystal ball with sackcloth.
For this period of time, he decided to stop divination.
The Witherer had not been found yet, but it was getting easier for Matthew to track down the whereabouts of Eli.
He found a time to activate the Oak Tree Domain. As Eli had resonated with his domain, Matthew could immediately lock onto his position as long as he was in the Oak Forest.
From the content of Matthew’s perception.
Eli’s daily routine was very monotonous.
It looked like…
He seemed to be patrolling the forest very seriously.
Matthew observed for a while and let him be.
His forest was full of hidden talents. There were skeletons, necromancers, and corpses. What was wrong with having a proper Druid?
In the Moonlight Woodlands.
Ella had repeatedly urged matthew to continue clearing the mve, but matthew had always used the excuse of ” insufficient human power” to brush her off.
In fact, this reason was not completely unreasonable.
He had lost so many skeleton soldiers. It would take some time for Matthew to resummon all the soldiers.
Samantha never showed up again after that day.
Matthew guessed that she had gone to sort out the information he wanted about the Su country.
The mission at the hive was really not urgent.
The Goddess of Moonlight’s mission was for him to eliminate one Violent Zerg Guard, and Matthew had done more than that.
As for the side quest of eliminating all the Zergs, Matthew had given up the idea of pushing through the quest after learning that the hive was related to the Antu Empire.
It was better to do things steadily!
During this period, two things happened:
Matthew found some time to buy 10 Air Element Restraining Runes and a small bottle of the Ghoul’s Nail Powder from a merchant in Baiyan City.
These two items were prepared for the next summoning of zombies.
The other thing was the transfer of Rheagar’s private territory to Matthew.
Matthew received a free land gift document signed by the lord from an unfamiliar City Hall official.
Of course.
This matter absolutely could not be completed openly.
Therefore, under the hint of the official.
Matthew went to see Ms Liz again, who complained that Matthew should have come to pick up the land lease document earlier.
On the surface, Matthew had become the tenant of the territory. However, only a few people knew that he was actually also the landowner!
Liz was very straightforward, and she even gave Matthew the promised allowance in full.
When Matthew walked out of the City Hall.
Matthew, who had his pockets tinkling, felt that life was wonderful.
He had only saved Sif once due to convenience, but the father and daughter had thanked him with generous gifts.
He felt a little guilty.
There was a moment when Matthew even had a wicked thought in his heart.
“If only this would happen again!” Very quickly.
He seriously banished his evil idea..
