âPick them up. These are your weapons.â
Matthew tried to give the zombies an order.
This process was not easy.
Never overestimate the intelligence and ability to use tools of ordinary undead creatures.
It was much more difficult to instruct them to adapt to a complicated tool like
a shovel than to learn how to operate an excavator.
Fortunately, Matthew was very patient.
Like a kindergarten worker, he taught the little zombies slowly. It took him nearly an hour to teach the zombies how to grip the shovel correctly.
âPhew!â
Matthew wiped his sweat.
This process was very difficult, but the result was good enough. âZombies have meat, so itâs different!â
He tried to dispatch one of the zombies to dig a hole in the open space.
The latter tried a few times.
Not long after.
An irregular pit appeared in front of Matthew.
âPass!â
Matthew smiled contentedly.
This was the superiority of zombies over skeletons.
Being closer to the structure of a human palm meant that they could easily grasp the tools that they could easily grasp when they were alive.
But skeletons couldnât.
Skeletons could be slashed with knives or smashed with small round shields.
However, their hands could not hold weapons or tools steadily for a long time. It was quite possible that their bones would fall off as they worked.
This was also an important reason why Matthew had never let the undead creatures participate in his work.
But now, things were different.
He could command the Silvermoon Zombies to dig holes, which would greatly increase the efficiency of planting trees.
âIn the future, I can focus more on-site selection, transplantation, and maintenance. â
Matthew led the zombies all the way to the northwest.
Very quickly.
On the barren land under the moonlight. There was a group of figures who worked tirelessly.
âI never thought zombies could do this kind of work.â Eli appeared silently.
He looked at the zombies with a complicated expression.
âThey donât look like evil creatures at all. They look more like a group of farmers.â
Matthew smiled and said,
âUndead creatures are not evil in the first place. Itâs just that for other life forms, their existence is too different, so it will cause people to panic and reject them subconsciously.â
Eli frowned.
He obviously didnât agree with Matthew.
However, he did not refute him. Instead, he took the initiative to change the topic.
âIt seems peaceful these few days, but the evil hasnât gone far. I can sense their existence.â
âWitherers
Matthewâs expression became serious.
Eli nodded vigorously.
âTheyâre really cunning and patient. Theyâve been watching from the shadows, which gives me a bad feeling. Perhaps we should try to change our strategy. Waiting for them to attack is too passive.â
Matthew muttered,
âIf we want to draw the snake out of its hole, we need to make more preparations.â
Eli said confidently,
âAs long as they dare to show themselves, they will definitely not be my match. As for preparations, havenât you done a lot these past few days? There were magic traps everywhere outside the small wooden house. I almost stepped on them.â
Matthew spread his hands.
âThose are just warning spells, and itâs hard to say if theyâll be of much use. The important thing is that once we choose to lure them, we must wipe them out.â
Eli loosened his muscles.
Iâm ready.â
Matthew had been thinking about this for the past few days.
Since Eliâs fighting spirit was surging, he was not afraid.
He thought for a while and agreed.
â How about this? Weâll hide in the Moonlight Woodlands tonight. Iâll instruct the oak tree fairies to be on the watch. If the Witherers make any strange movements, weâll come back immediately.
âWait for me over there. Iâll get Ella to open the door for you.â
Eli agreed.
Not long after.
Matthew summoned Ella to bring Eli to the Moonlight Woodlands first.
And Matthew wanted to find Lulu and explain the matter.
The Witherers destroyed the trees very quickly. If they wanted to minimize the losses, the oak fairiesâ vigilance was crucial.
Moonlight Woodlands.
The fourth level of the hive.
Eli wandered around idly.
The unique scenery and style here made him feel a little disappointed.
He still remembered.
The last time he was here, he was still fighting alongside Samantha.
But nowâŠ
When he thought of that cold, exquisite, confident, and independent face, he felt unbearable pain in his heart.
âDamn it. I shouldnât have come to this damn place.â
Eli kicked the rock in displeasure.
Bang!
The rock flew far away and smashed into the wall, creating a deep dent.
The echo could not stop for a long time.
Eli touched his forehead. The pain didnât ease, but it deepened.
Every time he thought of Samantha.
It was as if a large piece of his heart was suddenly missing.
This feeling of emptiness was torturous. âWhat is she doing now?â âWill she also regret saying those words to me?â
âIf only I could see her again.â
All sorts of thoughts rose in Eliâs mind.
The longing in his heart grew stronger.
A strong urge urged him to move forward.
He didnât walk far.
A leopard suddenly jumped out from the tunnel next door!
âSamantha?â
Eli looked at him in surprise and joy.
The leopard quickly transformed into a human.
However, what made Eliâs heart ache wasâŠ
Her first reaction when she saw him was to frown! âDid you cause that commotion just now?â
Samantha glanced at the marks on the wall and asked coldly..
