nOutstanding Citizen Citizen and Bloody Necromancer
nIn the class column below.
nThe word ‘Necromancer’ was written on it.
n“Wow…”
nSomeone exclaimed.
n“If it’s a necromancer, then it really won’t work. I remember that the Lord hates necromancers the most…” Richard said seriously, “But this might be a misunderstanding. How about this? I’ll talk to Matthew after work.”
nThe bald man nodded.
n“Then I’ll leave it to you. Also, do the assessment work. To be honest, I don’t believe it either.”
n..
nIn the evening.
nNorth of Rolling Stone Town.
nIn the newly formed oak forest.
nA tall and thin figure was busy.
nMatthew held a shovel in his hand and filled the newly dug pit with a thin layer of mature soil.
nThere were a few small sacks on the ground beside him. One of the sacks contained a sapling, and the rest were empty.
nIn the next moment.
nHe planted the sapling into the pit.
nHe covered it with several layers of soil of different textures.
nAfter the transplant.
nMatthew took out a bottle of green liquid and poured it on the soil near the seedling.
nLight green light waves surged.
nIt was obvious that the seedlings had grown a lot.
nIts posture also became more resilient.
n..
nYou have successfully planted an oak tree. Your Nature Affinity has slightly increased.
nThe accumulated number of oak trees planted and survived: 996」
n..
n“I’m still short of four trees. I’ll definitely have enough by tomorrow!”
nHe looked at the sky.
nMatthew decided to rest and go home.
nJust like usual.
nHe checked the contents of the mission panel again.
n..
nMain Mission: Plant Trees
nDescription: In the vicinity of Rolling Stone Town, choose a type of tree to plant on a large scale. Please proceed with this mission under the premise of ensuring the survival rate. No time limit
n..
nBeginner target: 1000 trees
nBasic Reward: Undead Summoning (Bone Dragon) & Large amount of XP
n..
nPutting aside the rewards, if this quest were given to a Druid, it would be normal.
nBut the problem was-
nMatthew was very sure that he was a necromancer who had a strong foundation!
nAfter all…
nIt was written clearly on the character panel.

n“I shouldn’t have opted for dual skills at the beginning!”
nHe looked at the nondescript yet frivolous game system.
nMatthew’s emotions were complicated.
nHe remembered it very clearly.
nOn the eve of his transmigration, he had been slaying the Mud Monsters in the Forest of Decay on his computer. He was rocking two classes back then. The two classes were Druid and Necromancer.
nIn the end, he transmigrated in the next second.
nHe became a Necromancer.
nImmediately after.
nMatthew found something even more confusing.
nAfter transmigrating, he had a game system.
nHowever, there seemed to be a problem with the system.
nIn the game he played, the system names of different classes were different.
nThe necromancers’ system was called the Path of Undying.
nThe Druids’ system was called Nature’s Heart.
nHowever, in Matthew’s transmigrated system, it was all a bunch of garbled characters and codes.
nAmong the characters, he could barely make out the words ” Undying, Natural,” and there were countless watermarks of the other stacked on top of each other.
nIt made people dizzy.
nMatthew felt numb.
nFortunately, the system quickly stabilized.
nAt the same time, he was given his first main mission.
nThat was to plant trees in Rolling Stone Town.
nMatthew, who had just arrived and had no family, had no reason to refuse.
nHe started working diligently.
nThis job lasted for almost three years.
n..
nIn the mage area.
nOutside an elegant and ancient two-story residential building.
nMatthew stopped at the door.
nHe did not immediately open the gate.
nInstead, he looked at the alley opposite.
nSomeone was waiting for him.
n“Mr. Matthew!”
nA young girl with a youthful aura ran out of the alley.
nThe two guards behind her hesitated for a moment but did not move.
nThe pretty girl jogged to Matthew.
nThe sky was already dark.
nMatthew could still see the deep blush on her face.
n“Beanna.”
nMatthew replied.
n“Matthew, I’m going to Jade Court next week. Father wants me to go over and learn dance and art… I came to see you before I left.”
nThe girl lowered her eyes.
nMatthew nodded. “Jade Court is a good place.”
nSeeing that the girl didn’t react, he added,
n“The wood elves are good at singing and dancing. Their artistic taste is indeed above that of humans.”
nThe girl still lowered her head.
nMatthew could only say, “Remember to write to me when you go to Jade Court so that I can reply to you.”
nThe young girl’s eyes finally had some liveliness.
nShe raised her head slightly.
nHer big eyes were filled with anticipation.
n“I will.
n“Matthew…Can you hug me before you leave?”
nMatthew said awkwardly, “I’m afraid that won’t do.”
nThe young girl had already taken the initiative to hug him.
nHer soft body pressed against Matthew’s chest.
nHe could feel the rapid heartbeat.
n“I like you, Matthew.”
nBeanna boldly confessed.
nMatthew let her hug him for a while.
nThen, he gently pushed her away.
nThen, he kindly reminded her, “Beanna, you’re still young. You don’t know what true love is. Even if you take ten thousand steps back, you’ve only seen the surface of me. You don’t know the real me.”
nBeanna retorted excitedly, “I know you!
n“I’ve been secretly looking at you every day in class!
n“I know everything you do!
n“You are a good person!
n“You love plants so much, and you love life!
n“There’s no man better than you in Rolling Stone Town!”
n..
n“I have reservations about this point of view… Ah, I’m sorry to disturb you, but official business is more important…”
nA man’s voice suddenly came from the other side of the room.
nBeanna blushed.
nShe quickly hid behind Matthew.
nThen…
nMatthew saw a man dressed like a gentleman walking over quickly.
n” Mr. Matthew, I’m Richard from the five-member committee of the City Hall. Regarding the Outstanding Citizen Selection, I have an urgent message for you to confirm.
n“This is the information you registered at the City Hall two years ago. Is this your profession? Is there a mistake?”
nMatthew took the document from Richard and glanced at it.
nThen, he said with unusual determination, “There is no mistake.
n“As you can see, I am indeed a necromancer.”
nRichard was stunned. “This doesn’t make sense. You don’t look like a necromancer.”
nBeanna also snorted. “I don’t believe it! You must be talking nonsense on purpose!”
nMatthew’s expression was normal.
nIn the next moment.
nHe suddenly snapped his fingers in the direction of his home.
nNot long after.
nThe kitchen door was pushed open from the inside.
nA tall shadow walked out from inside and came to the garden outside.
nRichard and Beanna widened their eyes.
nIt was a two-meter-tall Tauren skeleton!
nAs they walked, the skeleton greeted them, “Hey! Matthew, this is rare. Do we have any guests tonight?”
nMatthew shook his head. “I don’t think so.”
nHe looked at Beanna and Richard, who were dumbfounded. “I’m sorry to startle you, but I must say-
n“It seems that you don’t understand me, nor do you understand necromancers. Goodnight. Goodbye, both of you.”
n..
nAt night.
nThe thick aroma of mushroom soup filled the dining room and kitchen.
nMatthew and the Tauren skeleton sat opposite each other and enjoyed their dinner.
n“What a pity, Matthew….”
nSkeleton said regretfully, “You really shouldn’t have let me show my face in public. This time, not only did you lose the selection of outstanding citizens, but you also might have lost the admiration of an innocent girl…No matter how you look at it, it’s a loss!”
nMatthew drank a mouthful of mushroom soup and looked satisfied. “I don’t care.”
nThe skeleton asked with interest.
n“Then what do you care about?”
n“Let’s do it in stages. At this stage, I just want to plant trees properly.”
nPa!
nMatthew gently put down the bowl.
n“Peggy, go to the greenhouse and prepare the saplings I need tomorrow.
n“I’m going to the basement to meditate.”
nThe skeleton cried out, “Why should I go? I’ve been working for 72 hours straight! I was the one who made the dinner of love just now!
n“I’m so tired!”
nMatthew calmly replied, “You’re a skeleton, Peggy. You won’t get tired.
n“In addition, I only have you as my contract summon. I don’t trust the other skeletons to do these things.”
nPeggy couldn’t refuse.
nShe could only curse as she walked into the greenhouse on the east side.
n“Damn necromancers!”
