Chapter 115 Only the weak will abide by the rules set by others (continuing five updates, please subscribe for the first update)
Just as Zuo Si and his team used the fireball wand to implement the "kick the door" tactic, they opened the tombs one after another. When the various monsters placed in it are cleared out.
Far away in the lair of the [Tangled Talisman] deep underground in Calimport.
Xie Leisha, the "Lord of Symbols", saw the two vampires she had arranged disappear from the magic projection on the stone table almost instantly, and immediately couldn't help but question: "What happened? Why? My descendants were defeated in an instant?"
"Like the undead creatures that were swept away before.
They received two full rounds of [Fireball] with a spellcasting level equivalent to that of a LV13 arcane caster.
Such an injury, let alone two newborn vampires.
Even if you don't have any magic protection, you won't be in any good shape. "
Another "Lord of Symbols" Shangla explained gloatingly.
Although the magic projection in front of him did not show too many details of the battle, he had already passed it through other Means got the general situation
"Damn! It's that [Fireball Wand] again!
Can't we send someone who can use nine-ring magic to just throw [Great Disintegration] to destroy that nasty thing?
This thing really affects the balance of the game.
Look what they did with this wand.
All our carefully designed monsters, traps and puzzles. , all were destroyed and destroyed by the exploding fireballs
This is not the gameplay I want to see at all! "
Xeleisha complained angrily.
Although she is the youngest among all the "Lords of Symbols" present and has only sat in this position for less than ten years, she can I have personally planned similar "games" more than once
But there has never been anyone like Zuo Si who doesn't care about the rules and traditions at all
Use the simplest and most violent ones. , the most effective way to solve all problems encountered
He didn't care at all whether it would be a waste to use a [Fireball Wand] worth 39,000 gold coins in an unknown tomb where he could not be sure whether there were enemies or monsters.
I also don’t care if doing so will destroy those valuable trophies.
Looking at the jumping vampires, Lich Lagon shook his head meaningfully and retorted: "No, my dear Selesa.
Game balance is something that starts from the beginning. It is a false proposition from the beginning.
Only those who are weak and unable to think outside the limitations will follow the rules specified by others and succumb to the established traditions.
But those who are truly strong, or those who have the potential to become strong, will find ways to circumvent the rules set by others, and despise and break traditions that are unfavorable to them.
Even changing the rules through a series of means to make them more beneficial to themselves.
Through this game, we can clearly see this essence of Soth.
Without a doubt!
Although his spellcasting level may not be high enough, and his mastery of spells and knowledge is not enough, he is already a truly strong man in terms of his way of thinking and behavior.
For such a person, we cannot understand and require him to follow common sense and perform a game to please everyone according to the so-called "script".
Like everyone here, he is a natural chess player, not a chess piece that can be played with at will.
What's more, my original purpose was to put the "Book of the Dead" into his hands through this game and guide him step by step to become one of us.
As for the process and results of the game, it is actually not important at all.
And don’t you think the methods and strategies he adopted in this game were very successful?
Whether it is the use of the [Fireball Wand] or the use of illusions to confuse the enemy, while he hides in the dark and waits for opportunities through the [Invisible Wand], he has shown extraordinary wisdom. ”
“I don’t understand. Since you want to know so much about the special abilities shown by Soth in making magic items, why not contact him directly, or use other means to trade? "
Draconic Lich-Saphurak raised the question that has troubled him for several days.
"Because a god has noticed the existence of Soth. He even sent a paladin to follow him.
If we contact them rashly, we may expose many of our hidden secrets.
Don’t forget, this god has been investigating us and even wants to destroy the entire organization, so you must proceed with caution.
At least don’t let Soth know about the existence of [Entanglement Talisman] until you confirm that he is on our side. "
When he said these words, the two points of cold light in Lakon's eyes suddenly surged, showing the wisdom and caution of an evil lich and legendary spell caster.
Also It is precisely because of this caution that after the tragic death of the leader of the first generation [Entangled Talisman], not only did the entire organization not perish, but it also developed better and stronger than before.
Shangla supported without hesitation: "You are right!
The root of the organization's survival and development is secrecy. Any talisman master and his core servants must follow this principle.
As for Soth, please don't worry too much
Even if he leaves Calimshan and settles in the capital of Amn, Askatra, I can still pass through the stronghold established there. Observe and monitor it.”
"When did you establish a stronghold in Ascatla? How come I never heard any news?" Xeleisha had a surprised expression on her face.
"It's been a while. You are still young and there are many things you don't know." Shangela's tone was playful and playful.
As the most "humane" of all the "Lords of Talisman", he is one of the very few who still retains a sense of humor after being transformed into an undead creature.
He often plays harmless jokes or pranks with other "Lords of Talisman" or the subordinates under his control.
Of course, for his men, this kind of scary prank is not very funny.
...
At the same time, far away in the ancient tombs deep in the Kalin Desert.
Zuo Si and his party finally encountered an enemy that could not be solved with the [Fireball Wand].
It was a human who looked a little skinny and had his skin and muscles peeled off, but he had a huge head with frighteningly exaggerated proportions, and a scorpion-like hooked tail.
It is about 2.7 meters tall and may weigh more than 180 kilograms. Its two glowing red eyes are full of cunning and cruel light, and its skin is covered with a disgusting layer. of acidic mucus.
Even after taking a [Fireball] shot from the front, he was still unscathed.
The reason is simple!
This is a demon that is completely immune to all fire damage, and it is also a relatively advanced demon - the Bone Demon, also called the Osei Demon by scholars.
They were born in the fifth level of the Nine Hells. They are born sadists and often serve as prosecutors and interrogators for the devils to torture the souls of mortals and lower-level devils with lower status than themselves. For fun.
But the one in front of me is obviously imprisoned in the center of the tomb by the binding circle on the ground.
Therefore, after being attacked, it did not immediately fight back. It just stood and stared at the group of five people with eyes full of scrutiny.
The two sides were in a stalemate for about ten seconds, and the Bone Demon took the lead in speaking in the common language on the surface: "Aha! A group of mortal adventurers! If I guessed correctly, you should all be like me. You were forced to participate in this game, right?"
"You were also forcibly summoned by a powerful spellcaster?" Zuo Si tried to control the phantom.
"Of course! Didn't you see the huge binding circle at my feet?
After those damn bastards summoned me, they turned around and left without saying a word .
They had no intention of communicating at all, they just regarded me as a prop in the game!
Don’t you think these guys are arrogant and annoying?
So hurry up and help untie the shackles. Just use a hard weapon to break the silver runes in the upper right corner of the room.
Of course, in return, I can help you reach the lowest level of the tomb, which is also the only teleportation exit to the outside world. "
The Bone Demon tries to create an image that he is also a "victim" and induces the mortals in front of him to release himself.
