Chapter 158 The Coffin Carrier
"Zou Peng , have someone help me compile a list of the mages who are somewhat famous in the Mage Forum."
Hearing this, Zou Peng nodded in agreement and said with a smile.
"So serious?"
"You have to be serious, or I'll do it all by myself.
But since I plan to ask someone for help, what's the point of only asking for part of it?
At least those who are well-known and powerful should be invited. Otherwise, wouldn't that be looking down on them? It would just create obstacles for no reason."
"Indeed, if it were me, I might not bother you, but the Mage Association would definitely not come either."
Zou Peng nodded.
"What about those who have no real power but think they are superior?"
Mo Lan shrugged upon hearing this.
"It's none of my business. I don't want to cause trouble, but you really think I'm afraid of trouble."
Zou Peng nodded after hearing this, then turned and left.
…
"Hurry, hurry, hurry."
A vice president of the Niehuo Guild ran out of the underground passage breathlessly with three wounded men, carrying a black tree trunk that was more than half a meter thick and three or four meters long.
"President, grab one."
"Well, you've worked hard. This is healing medicine. You guys rest here first. We'll leave first."
Geng Tao handed three precious potion reagents to the three people, and then took the black tree trunk.
But when he picked up the tree trunk, he almost dropped it on the ground.
"President, be careful, it's heavy."
Geng Tao nodded. He felt a chill as he placed his hand on the tree trunk. The wood was dense and heavy. In his opinion, the wood would sink as soon as it entered the water.
"Walk!"
Geng Tao handed the tree trunk to another player. As a gift to a team of nearly a hundred people, it attracted a lot of attention from the players, but Geng Tao didn't care at all. He took the tree trunk and went straight to the valley of the base.
After returning to the valley safely, several people carried trees into the gloomy burial ground.
"Lao Zhao, Mu Tou is here, take a look and see if it works.
This time it cost a lot.”
While Geng Tao was speaking, a player next to him was cursing.
"Because of this piece of wood, I was killed by the bone scorpion in one encounter.
Those things are really strong, sooner or later I will take revenge on them."
The man called Lao Zhao was a rather thin young man. He knocked on the tree trunk with his hands and used his mental strength to look deep into the trunk with difficulty.
"Eighty percent likely. The properties of this wood are very close to dead energy, so it shouldn't be easily corroded by dead energy.
But the final result still depends on the experiment.”
Old Zhao asked his assistant to saw off a small branch from the tree trunk.
Holding the branch, Lao Zhao's mental power began to slowly wrap up a trace of death.
"snort."
Old Zhao groaned and looked at Geng Tao with some concern.
"Old Zhao, why don't you solve the corrosive effect of the dead energy on the mental power before conducting the experiment? It's not going to work this way."
"Hurry up first. If you don't know the properties of this material, you won't be able to make arrangements. After all, there are several elite bone scorpions over there.
Now the death penalty has been increased again. If we can get the Necromancer out as soon as possible, such a profession that can take care of pets will definitely be the most sought-after one. "
Lao Zhao gathered all the dead air around him, bound and wrapped the small piece of branch with his mental power, and penetrated inside.
Death energy is very special. The way it is born is very special, its location is very special, and its properties are also different from other elements.
Like other elements, even the fire element will not cause any harm to mental power, but this death energy will be fine if you stay far away from it. Once the mental power tightly wraps it and tries to control it, it will be corroded by the death energy, which will directly corrode the mental power. While causing pain, it will also cause corrosive damage to the mental power.
Geng Tao didn't say anything else, just looked at the branch silently.
As time went by, the branches did not seem to have the corrosion that had occurred on the material before, which made Geng Tao's eyes widen, filled with anticipation.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but this piece of black wood not only didn’t seem to be corroded, but it became even darker and brighter.
"call."
Old Zhao let out a long breath as if relieved and said in surprise.
“This property is perfect. Not only will it not be corroded by the dead energy, but it will nourish the dead energy and be nourished by the dead energy itself. It also has a very good isolation effect on the dead energy.
This is almost the perfect material for our profession!"
"Hahaha, okay, then I'll arrange for someone to kill those scorpions right away. At worst, I can ask Mo Lan for help. I don't believe that I can't kill these scorpions today."
Geng Tao laughed heartily but was stopped by Lao Zhao.
"Wait a minute, don't be impatient. I'll do a complete experiment. What I just did may not be very accurate, but you can start the preliminary preparations for your action now."
Old Zhao spoke to him while directing people to saw the tree trunk into boards .
"Okay, I'll go downstairs to eat. When you're done, come down quickly and we'll eat together."
"You guys eat first, I'll be down later."
"hurry up."
After arranging some preliminary work, Geng Tao went offline to eat, but he waited for a long time and did not see Lao Zhao come down. He called him several times but to no avail. He had no choice but to go online to take a look. However, when he saw clearly what Lao Zhao was doing, he was stunned.
"You...you...what are you doing?"
"Make a container for dead air."
"But are you sure you're not making a coffin? And it's an ugly one."
Old Zhao's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"Yes, Geng Tao, you are really a genius. It would be so ugly if you made it into a rectangular block. Why not just make it into a coffin? It will be both practical and beautiful."
“I…”
Geng Tao wanted to cry but had no tears. As he thought about it, he found a picture of a coffin, looked at it, and propped his chin up with his hand.
"Coffin carrier, emmmm, seems to be okay, it looks much better than carrying a big wooden box, and it's much more classy."
"Hey, you think so too, right? Come help."
"good."
After Geng Tao finished speaking, he called a group of people to help and stood by and watched.
It just so happened that one of the people we called was a carpenter at home, and he gave us direct instructions directly.
Soon, a pitch-black coffin appeared in front of Geng Tao. After being polished, it looked like it was painted black.
"Well, you know what, this craftsmanship is pretty good. It looks really good."
Old Zhao also nodded with satisfaction, which made the player feel a little embarrassed.
"It's a sliding cover, nice."
Old Zhao pressed the coffin lid and slid it upwards, revealing the space inside.
He endured the burning sensation with his mental strength, wrapped up the death energy and sent it in. Little by little, the black coffin was gradually filled with death energy and became gray. Looking down from the coffin, it also felt dark and deep.
clang!
The coffin lid slid down, closed, and turned upside down to install a diagonal strap underneath.
Geng Tao grabbed him and leaned over to his back, turning his head.
"Awesome, so cool!"
