Chapter 642: Confiscating the house!


Chapter 642: Confiscating the house!

The changes in the square immediately attracted the attention of other illithids around them. Many illithids sent telepathic messages to their compatriots to inquire about the situation. Logically speaking, their companions would respond immediately. But in fact, what they received were screams and wails from the soul that were almost unimaginable.

This immediately surprised many illithids, and they hurriedly started to take action, trying to figure out what happened.

But this was not easy, because many illithids died in the square, and the races that were originally controlled as slaves also came to their senses and began to kill the illithids who dared to enslave them. While illithids are indeed masters of mind manipulation, they are not completely invincible.

Quite simply, anger.

With enough rage, the illithid's psychic abilities can be weakened enough to negate the illithid's power.

It is conceivable that the fire of anger in the hearts of this group of slaves who broke free from mental restraint was terrifying and powerful. Therefore, the illithids who first rushed to the square were almost caught off guard and killed by the slaves who fought back. Their psychic attacks were useless against the angry slaves, and the deaths of these illithids further caused more slave races to wake up, making the situation even more chaotic.

Of course, this is only temporary. Illithids are also divided into strengths and weaknesses. When those illithids who are old and mature and have extremely powerful spiritual power appear on the scene, this rebellion is destined to come to an end.

That is if they can arrive in time.

When Duanmuhuai left the square with Ogis and Qiaowei and followed the road in front of him to a huge tower in front of him, he happened to see a group of illithids hurriedly walking out of it with their slaves, heading towards the square. Rush in the direction.

"Whose slave are you, come with me!"

The leader of the illithid saw Duanmu Huai and others, but did not pay special attention to it. The chaotic situation in the square was beyond the expectation of the illithid. They didn't even know what happened to make it like this. After all, the spirit of the illithid that first came into contact with Duanmuhuai had been completely destroyed and turned into a pile of useless pieces of meat. Even their compatriots were unable to extract any useful information from the broken minds and screams of the minds of those illithids.

Because of this, the illithid in front of it did not pay special attention to Duanmuhuai. It just subconsciously looked at him and issued an order using telepathy.

However, the next moment, the illithid suddenly felt a terrifying mental torrent overwhelming his message, as if an awl had pierced his brain. It suddenly screamed and collapsed to the ground holding its head. Seeing this scene, the other illithids were also shocked. They quickly retreated and ordered their slave army to step forward to block Duanmu Huai and others.

"Do you think you can stop me?!"

Looking at the army of bugbears and gray dwarves in front of him, Duanmuhuai roared angrily, then he directly swung his war hammer and suddenly accelerated towards the front!

The strong bugbears and gray dwarves in armor were obviously no match for Duanmuhuai. He just lowered his shoulders and charged forward like an angry bull. The leader of the bugbear roared angrily, swung his flail hard and hit Duanmuhuai's armor, and then returned without success. Then it was directly knocked away by Duanmu Huai, and it drew an arc of dozens of meters in the air before falling heavily to the ground behind it.

Duanmuhuai's attack broke through the defense line almost instantly like a battering ram. No matter it was the bugbear's attack, nor the gray dwarf's shield and crossbow arrows, there was no way to stop him.

This brave and fearless gesture frightened the illithids. They hurriedly tried to float to avoid it, and at the same time once again issued orders to their slaves, asking them to block Duanmuhuai at all costs.

But unfortunately, their slaves have no way to achieve their goals.

Because at this moment Ogis and Qiu Wei have already taken action.

Ogis opened her hands, and the silk threads spread out like a spider web, tightly binding them to the bodies of the giant bugbears, and then easily cut them into hams. On the other side, Qiaowei, holding two daggers, was more like an erratic ghost shuttling among the crowd. The two daggers flew up and down, piercing every gap they could find, and even... The gray dwarf's thick armor looked as if it were made of paper in front of her. Soon, the slave army was in chaos, let alone rescuing their masters.

At this moment, Duanmu Huai has already rushed towards the high tower - this is the largest building in the illithid city and the home of the main brain. There are a large number of illithids living here. Of course, for them, the most important thing is forever. There is only one.

Mastermind.

【Stop him! ! 】

The panic of the master brain and the panic of the illithids merged together. You must know that the master brain cannot be placed in a small place because of its huge body. In fact, the illithid master brain is located in the pond in the main tower hall. This is also This means that as long as Duanmu Huai passes through that door, the mastermind will be completely exposed to him!

And judging from the reaction of the black-armored warrior, he obviously knew what was inside!

The illithids fell one after another, and countless psychic shocks were radiated towards Duanmu Huai. This is the first hand combat that the illithid is best at, just like the mage always releases a magic missile in the first hand. I won't say whether it is useful or not. , at least it can be used to evaluate the opponent's strength.

But unfortunately, their opponent is Duanmu Huai.

What's even more pity is that Duanmuhuai possesses the will of the old god.

Therefore, what the illithids are doing at this moment is almost the same as voluntarily throwing themselves into Cthulhu's nightmare.

This is also true.

At the moment when the psychic shock was released, these illithid monsters suddenly let out screams of terror. They could feel that the world in front of them was changing, and their spirits began to twist and deform in the face of some invisible powerful force. The other party was not just They resisted and rebounded their own attacks. On the contrary, they felt like punching a stone wall with force at this moment, which resulted in their own arms being fractured by the counter-shock force.

What's even more frightening is that it's not just the arms that are broken.

Twisted, frantic, and indescribable spiritual power swept through, igniting the inner world of the illithids. They began to scream with their hands on their heads, and then fell to the ground, rolling desperately, and the invisible spiritual wails echoed around, and even The real world began to shake because of this reverberating spiritual power.

However, Duanmu Huai didn't care about these pawns. He kicked open the door of the tower and saw a giant brain immersed in the pool in the center of the rotunda in front of him. It is nearly ten meters wide. The huge piece of meat is trembling in the pool at this moment. The violent spiritual power condenses around it, just like a mouse forced to the end by a cat and planning to fight to the death. . But unfortunately, it has no chance.

"Hey, you're good."

Duanmu Huai held the warhammer in one hand and walked towards the giant brain in front of him with a smile. At the same time, he raised his left hand - and then he saw Duanmu Huai's left hand begin to twist and deform, turning into a thick and huge tentacle.

[You, what do you want to do? 】

"You will soon find out."

Faced with the Master Brain's extremely frightened inquiry, Duanmu Huai shrugged his shoulders, then stretched his left hand forward, and then saw the wriggling tentacles springing out like snakes, directly entering the Master Brain's body.

The next moment, a wail that almost shook the entire city suddenly broke out.

Duanmuhuai's old god power broke through the fragile direction of the main brain and penetrated directly into its core. At the same time, this power spread like an erupting volcanic magma, invading all the illithid monsters connected to the main brain. in the brain.

No, not just illithids.

Even the slaves were the same. Their brains, which were originally controlled by the illithid, were also invaded by this terrifying force. For a while, the entire city seemed like purgatory. Regardless of whether they were illithids, drow, bugbears, gray dwarves, humans or even other living beings, at this moment they all started running around like crazy, shouting like a madman.

"What's wrong with these guys?"

Qianwei stood on the street, watching an illithid running towards her waving its hands. No, its octopus-like eyes didn't seem to notice Qianwei's existence at all, and it just ran forward desperately—— -The next moment Qiaowei appeared behind it and broke its neck easily.

Qianwei looked at the dirty and strange blood stains on the dagger with disgust, and then threw the dagger aside. After all, it was just something that could be used casually, and it was not a good product at all.

"The master's plan succeeded."

Ogis said calmly, and then she walked straight towards the tower, while Qianwei shook her head and followed her towards the tower.

At this moment, Duanmu Huai was filled with joy.

If the head of the illithid he killed before was a house, then the mastermind was a bank vault. What excited Duanmu Huai the most was not only the various intelligence materials stored in it, but also the What’s more important is experience.

As a naturally psychic race, illithids have thousands of years of experience in manipulating psychic powers, and these experiences are stored in the master brain. This is almost a secret that only illithids can obtain. From Illithids The family's top secret. At this moment, all these experiences and intelligence were completely swallowed up by Duanmu Huai. Not only did he learn about the illithid's use of psychic powers, but he also gained a lot of experience.

For Duanmu Huai, who has the [Old God's Will] but no way to use it, these experiences are rarer than anything else.

Of course, Duanmu Huai didn't absorb all the experience. He skipped things like "Evaluation of the Deliciousness of the Brains of Group Races in the Faerun Continent".

I don’t even eat hotpot and don’t eat my brains, okay?

"Huh..."

In just a few minutes, Duanmu Huai withdrew his tentacles. At this moment, the mastermind in front of him was completely shriveled, like a corpse that had been sucked by blood and turned into a human body. Not only it, but also the illithids on the street. Their slaves were no better. [Old God's Will] completely destroyed their minds and distorted their bodies. When Duanmu Huai walked out of the tower and came to the street, all he saw were pieces of flesh that were swelling and mutating. They have lost their original shape and changed into indescribable forms.

"It's over? Master?"

"It's over, so I say that this kind of hive mind network is easy to be broken."

Duanmuhuai glanced at the corpse of the illithid next to him - it had not mutated, but fell to death before being invaded by Duanmuhuai. Perhaps this was a better way to die.

"What are we going to do next?"

"First completely destroy this place, and then..."

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai touched his chin. Although he had absorbed the experience of the illithids, the experience was not gained by himself after all, so the best way was to find a place to experiment.

As for where to test...well, Duanmu Huai already has a target.

"Let's go to the drow city."
