Chapter 1944 - A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees

Chapter 1944: 552, steal for me! … Nearby, at the edge of Black Water Swamp, the power of Lost Paradise carved out a secluded space, quietly establishing an independent realm. Beside Matthew, one figure after another began to emerge. This was the Guild Member Summoning Technique coming into effect after much preparation— Hibbert, Vivien, Lorraine, Camela, Lumiere, Bobo, Li Weiqi. A total of seven people quickly assembled beside Matthew. In fact, just before Hibbert’s figure materialized, the crystal ball Matthew held was already radiant with light. Given to him by Hibbert before embarking on this journey, the Time Ball was a powerful and special medium for casting, enabling Hibbert to trigger the spells within, even from afar, through remote spellcasting. It was his signature spell: the Time Stop series! As figures descended one after another, the battlefield fell silent; everyone’s movements frozen mid-air, including those of Legendary-level individuals. This scene didn’t last long, merely about 3 seconds. Yet it felt as though an eternity had passed, likely due to the fact that during time stop, the thought processes weren’t completely halted. However, during this time, Matthew didn’t take any direct action. It might seem extravagant to say, but in their plan, the short-lived, wide-reaching Time Stop from the Time Ball was just to ensure the smooth landing of the “Guild Member Summoning Technique.” After all, too many Legendary creatures were involved in this mission, and it was happening in someone else’s territory. The slightest disturbance could be detected. If the spell were to be countered or nullified, then Matthew would have faced serious trouble! Thus, in this matter of summoning, there was absolutely no room for error! Three seconds later, time “slowly” resumed its normal flow. Matthew turned to look at Hibbert, who was one of the key figures today. Hibbert was dressed in a slightly ill-fitting dark black suit, clearly a finely crafted piece of magical armor, possibly even a Magic Divine Artifact. Although Matthew hadn’t seen it before, he was drawn to the arcane runes and the immense etheric aura it emitted and couldn’t help but take a few extra glances. “I’m ready,” Hibbert said to Matthew with rare seriousness. Vivien then nervously asked him, “Are you sure you don’t need my assistance?” Hibbert waved his hand and his lips silently moved as he murmured— Matthew didn’t need to speak. He had already read affirmation in Matthew’s gaze. Without delay, Hibbert silently began to incant an even more powerful legendary spell. Up to this point, most people on the battlefield had not realized what had happened. They hadn’t even noticed the sudden appearance of Matthew’s group in the center. Only the most top-tier powerhouses were abruptly alerted. The Demoness of Desire and the Lord of Darkness, previously on edge, both swiftly retreated a significant distance, the latter immediately targeting Matthew: “You…” “Who are you?” Matthew activated his flying spell, lifting his body into the air. He revealed his true face and, without hesitation, opened both Celebrity Domain and Giant Dragon Domain, brazenly exerting his Prestige over everyone present. “Is it you?” Glasia’s expression changed. The Lord of Darkness showed an intrigued look: “I feel like I’ve seen you before…” Matthew smiled in response, “Don’t worry, you two; I have no intention of disturbing your festivities.” “I only wish to settle a minor historical grudge with Lady Glasia. After that, I will leave, and you can resume your enjoyment to your heart’s content.” Glasia was on full alert, her hand hastily covering her waist, “A historical grudge, you mean you want to…” However, before she could finish, she abruptly turned to look down at the ground. By then, it was already too late. Matthew had made a deliberate appearance and released his aura for the sole purpose of attracting the attention of others—especially the leaders of both sides. Indeed, his presence was quite provocative; surpassing in fame, it was hard for anyone to shift their gaze away from him immediately. This created the perfect environment for Hibbert’s silent casting. In the next breath, both Glasia and Beckman realized that something was terribly wrong. Varying glows appeared on their bodies, which also started to distort—a sign they were using all kinds of protective Abilities to escape the space. Unfortunately, their movements were ruthlessly interrupted by an even more terrifying force! In an instant, centered around Glasia, a void sphere with a diameter of two hundred meters rapidly took shape. Within the sphere’s range, everyone’s movements were forcefully interfered with and interrupted! Most faces showed expressions of pain, for in addition to being interrupted, they were experiencing unprecedented pressure and gravity! That was— “Youruo’s Gravity Space!” “Let’s start with twenty times gravity!” “Keep ramping it up!” Since Matthew had chosen to act at this moment, he naturally wouldn’t allow his enemies any chance to escape. Using the signature spell of the Western Guardians, he forcibly sealed the space, then imposed a gravity multiplier of over twenty times on both the Demoness of Desire and the Lord of Darkness! The effect of force field-type spells in actual combat was incredibly domineering. If it weren’t so difficult to learn, Matthew would have already taken an interest in studying it. At that moment, both individuals were showing severe symptoms of maladaptation. At this time.
