Chapter 194 Are you looking for me (a 10,000-word chapter, please subscribe)
The parliament next to the government office building of the administrative district of "Gold Coin Capital".
This is the second most majestic and gorgeous building in the city after the Temple of Woking, the goddess of wealth. It is also the place where the forty-two families that control Ascaltra compete for interests and discuss foreign policies.
Since the envoy who just returned from Candlekeep a few days ago brought back the contract that symbolized victory, a meeting was specially held today to discuss how to divide the trade shares snatched from Baldur's Gate.
Yes, it is partition.
Those ordinary merchants and civilians could not get any additional benefits from the treaty. At most, they could only pick up the leftovers left by the big families.
Facts have once again proved that there is no so-called "fair" business environment in the world.
Any commercial activity that develops and grows to a certain extent will inevitably be unable to escape the influence of politics, and the two are even bound to each other from the beginning.
Amn, the business empire that is closest to the capitalist system on Earth, is naturally one of the best.
Looking at the trade protection laws it has enacted, it is not difficult to see that the essence of this country is to give those families with huge wealth and capital a more relaxed environment for expansion, allowing them to form absolute monopolies in one field after another. .
As the "hero" and "hero" of this negotiation, Sir Crispian naturally became the star figure of this meeting.
In addition, he had followed Zuo Si's advice before and made a big splash in advance when he returned to let everyone know how huge benefits he had obtained for Amn.
So when this already famous nobleman appeared, everyone stood up and gave enthusiastic applause and words of praise.
After all, he overfulfilled the tasks assigned by the six-member Council. Even after the envoy was attacked by evil forces, he "bravely" continued to move towards Candlekeep, leaving Baldur's Gate passive. and trouble, and ultimately had to make huge concessions.
Of course, Sir Crispian has not forgotten that the reason why he was able to gain such power from the six-member council was all thanks to Zuo Si's help.
Therefore, he did not hesitate to use his authority to give the biggest piece of cake to the Roldan Chamber of Commerce.
In the current Ascatra, there is no noble who does not know the relationship between Bernard and Zuo Si.
After the "Spoils Sharing Conference" was over, Sir Crispian immediately approached Bernard and his friend, Babette, the heir of the Nasiva family.
He said without any nonsense, straight to the point: "This time I went to Candlekeep to negotiate with Baldur's Gate. It was only thanks to Sir Thos that I was able to survive that terrible attack and finally excelled. The mission has been completed. So I hope that Sir Soth can get a relatively high share of the benefits of this allocation to the Roldan Chamber of Commerce."
"Don't worry about this, I will leave it unchanged. I will give him all the profits from these trade routes because he also saved my life and helped me regain everything I lost." Bernard responded with a smile.
After hearing these words, Sir Crispian immediately nodded with satisfaction: "It seems that you are smarter and more capable than the rumors say. I believe that the Roldan Chamber of Commerce will prosper again under your leadership. In a few days , I will hold a dinner at the manor, and you must come. Many parliamentarians, bureaucrats and important figures in the judicial system will be present."
"Thank you very much, it is an honor to have you invited. "
Bernard bowed politely, his eyes flashing with excitement.
Because he had just restored the Chamber of Commerce to normal operations, and what he lacked most at the moment was connections in the government.
In Amn, a country where bribery and bribery have long become routine and unspoken rules, there is nothing more important than maintaining collusion between politics and business.
As a successful young businessman, Bernard knew very well that the reason why he did not encounter any trouble at the moment was entirely due to the sufficient deterrence of Zuo Si, the chosen one of the goddess of poison and plague.
So he is eager to make up for this shortcoming.
After all, his evil-minded father, Sir Elrot, died so hastily that he did not have time to reveal the connections that the family had secretly developed over the years.
“Come on, young man. You must know that there are countless families in Askatra who are envious of you. After all, establishing friendship with a powerful god’s chosen one and receiving his protection is such a thing. Not just anyone can enjoy it. Some guys even said jealously that you must have been kissed by Tymora, the goddess of luck, when you were born."
After saying these words of encouragement, Chris. Sir Pian then turned and left the parliament.
After he was completely gone, Babette couldn't help but whistled and said jokingly: "Man, it seems you are really starting to get lucky.
I heard my father mention it yesterday. The meeting seems to intend to entrust Sir Crispian with important tasks
This means that he will soon obtain a series of rights including trade and diplomacy.
With his support. , you should soon obtain the status of a senior councilor.
Don't underestimate this.
With this identity, you can truly gain the respect of other families and avoid being treated as a junior all the time. "
"Yes! Since returning to Ascaltra, I feel like I have suddenly had a change of fortune and everything has been going so smoothly. It seems that the cooperation agreement I reached with Mr. Soth at all costs was indeed the most successful investment I have made in my life. "Bernard sighed slightly.
"By the way, when do you plan to hold a wedding with my sister so that the relationship between our two families will become closer through marriage? "Babet asked with great interest.
"Wait for Mr. Soth to come back. In addition, I have been so busy recently that I have no time and energy to prepare for the wedding. "Bernard sighed with a wry smile.
Since all the brothers and sisters who had fierce competition in the past died at once, he now has to support such a large chamber of commerce alone.
Fortunately, the family has always had the habit of cultivating and reserving talents. Otherwise, it would not be possible to recover from the chaos within half a year, let alone expand.
Babet shrugged indifferently: "Then wait a few more months. Anyway, the wedding is just a formality. By the way, I heard that you were at the original location of the Crooked-Necked Crane Hotel in Chengmen District A restaurant built in the Karatu style of the Eastern Continent? And it also provides authentic and delicious dishes? "Hahahaha! But that restaurant does not belong to me, but to Mr. Soth. Opened in partnership with a halfling chef. I guarantee that you will fall in love with them once you try them.”
When he mentioned this, Bernard immediately laughed happily.
Because this restaurant has only been open for less than five days, but it has already received unanimous praise from all the nobles and wealthy businessmen.
According to reports from the restaurant operations personnel, the reservations for VIP members above the second floor have been delayed for a month.
As for the lobby on the first floor, which only serves relatively cheap dishes, it is always packed as soon as the doors open.
Some guests with picky tastes would rather wait at the door for an hour and a half than go to other hotels or pubs for a meal.
"Damn! Then what are you waiting for? Take me for a big meal quickly. You know that when I was a child, I had always longed for the Eastern Continent Karatu described in books, and was fascinated by the mystery, prosperity, wealth and harmony there. I’m deeply obsessed with food culture.”
After that, Babette dragged Bernard by the arm, dragged him into his carriage, and then sped straight towards the city gate.
...
At the same time, in the private room of the masked mage's headquarters.
Zelanora was sitting at the dining table, enjoying the food that her men had just ordered from Zuo Si's restaurant, and asked without raising her head: "I asked you to investigate the entanglement talisman in Ascart. Are there any results from La's actions?"
"Yes, Master. We have discovered that a chamber of commerce and several families have been secretly controlled by Shangla, the Lord of Talisman." A young man in his mid-twenties knelt down on one knee to report.
“Oh? What have they been doing recently?”
Zeranora used her slender fingers to open the shell of a lobster, dipped the white and tender meat into her mouth with the secret sauce, and felt the delicious taste coming from her tongue and taste buds.
Without a doubt.
Ever since she tasted the dishes cooked by the halfling chef Welby, she was completely conquered by the deliciousness of these foods.
Nowadays, it is not only necessary to have three main meals a day, but also to add some exquisite and delicious snacks.
The young man replied cautiously: "According to our observations, the other party should be trying to establish a stable business relationship with Bernard, who has a close relationship with Soth. In addition, there was another person not long ago. The mysterious woman walked out of their secret stronghold in the Bridge District."
"Woman?"
A strange color flashed in Zeranora's eyes.
"Yes. After these days of tracking, we found that she actually joined the Emerald Society."
The young man quickly told everything he knew.
Zelanora mocked with contempt: "Emerald Society? An attack in the Yunwu Mountains? It seems that the Entangling Talisman has not given up the idea of absorbing Soth into the organization. By the way, what about the Emerald Society? What is this idiot doing lately?”
"They seem to have the support of the elf mage in the sewers of Woking Mall area, and they are planning the second ambush on Soth. It is said that this time they are almost all out, and they even spent a lot of money to hire a man in Cherim. The black dragon nesting in the Ba Swamp."
"Oh? After experiencing a failure, do they still realize what it means to be a chosen one favored by the gods?" Zeranora asked in surprise. He raised his eyebrows.
You must know that the traces of divine power on Zuo Si's body are so obvious that anyone with a little bit of theological common sense should be able to feel it.
She really couldn't figure out how on earth those rotten fish in the Emerald Society dared to attack such people again and again.
Even if you succeed by luck, aren't you afraid that the goddess of poison and plague will directly send down divine punishment?
"I think Irenekas used some of the elves' unique magic skills as bargaining chips, so those few people chose to take risks." The young man responded in an uncertain tone.
As for Joan Irenikas, an outsider with extremely terrifying spellcasting ability, perhaps the other high-ranking factions of the Masked Mage Guild don’t know about it yet, but as a servant of Zenora, he has already known knew.
But considering that this guy can be used to get rid of the leaders of several other masked mage factions at some point in the future, it was not announced to the outside world.
"Humph! What a group of greedy and extremely stupid people." Zeranora commented with a sneer.
But soon, she changed the topic and gave direct instructions: "Immediately send someone to investigate the identity of that woman and her recent movements. I seriously doubt that this guy was planted by Shangla, the Lord of Talisman. The chess piece that came to contact Soth. Joining the Emerald Society is just a cover to hide it.”
"Don't worry. We have started to use prophecy spells to monitor her every move. If there is any change in her, you will know it as soon as possible."
After saying this, the young man stood up and calmed down. He backed away slowly and finally disappeared at the end of the corridor outside the room door.
After he was completely gone, an undead creature with a biting chill all over his body came out of the cabinet where he was hiding.
It looks like a humanoid skeleton wrapped in thick ice and snow skin.
The ice and snow formed complete skin and muscles, and huge and uneven ice cubes were embedded in each finger, forming claws that were as sharp as blades.
There is no trace of ice on the skull head above the neck, and a black flame surrounds the head like a corona. From a distance, it looks like long flowing black hair.
Any necromancer with sufficient knowledge can easily identify that this is a [Winter Ghost] that stands at the apex of necromantic creatures, a kind of creature that can compete with the Balor Balrog. Legendary creature.
Only a handful of powerful legendary spellcasters who have mastered the true meaning of necromancy can possibly successfully create a winter ghost.
"Master..."
The winter ghost who came out of the cabinet stood respectfully and bowed deeply to Zera Nora who was sitting at the dining table enjoying the food. bow.
"I need you to perform a task now."
Zelanora raised her head and stared at the two flashes of light in the winter ghost's eyes.
"No problem. Please tell me the content of the task."
Different from those low-level undead who have little self-awareness.
Winter Ghost has sufficient intelligence attributes. Not only can it learn one or two languages, but it can also make judgments based on orders.
In other words, although they do not retain the memories and personalities of their lives, they are actually very similar to lichs and vampires, and both have the ability to think independently.
Zelanora picked up a napkin and wiped the sauce on the corners of her mouth and fingers, and said in a slightly playful tone: "I need you to follow Soth and see how he responds. This ambush of the Emerald Society. If everything goes well, then don't show up. If he is in trouble, then you can help him a little."
"Do you need me to identify myself?"
The voice of the winter ghost sounded like it came from the great glacier in the far north, which made people feel a chill coming from the bottom of their hearts.
"No, no need. I can't reveal my identity yet, at least not until Soth's position and attitude are confirmed. In addition, by the way, help me give this thing to Shaud Tarowen."
With that said, Zeranora threw a delicate small box to the winter ghost.
After catching it, the latter immediately turned around and activated the huge portal standing in the room, and then disappeared without a trace.
Watching the energy vortex in the middle of the portal gradually dissipate, Zelanora said to herself in a voice that only she could hear: "Entanglement Talisman, Ivicola Saglan "Sharp Teeth" , and those usurpers who stole the throne of the great Shane. I swear in the name of Shane VII that I will take back what belongs to me sooner or later, and make you pay the price of blood and death."
Obviously, this beautiful moon elf mage has long been replaced by the famous "Emperor of the Undead", the last monarch of the Calimshan Shane Dynasty - Shane VII.
This is why Zenora was able to increase her spellcasting level rapidly after the end of the Year of Turmoil, and eventually became a high-ranking member of the Masked Mage Guild.
For a legendary demilich with a spellcasting level as high as LV36, this is just restoring his original strength, not the so-called "genius" that the masked mages think.
In fact, the "cross-dressing boss" Shane VII who occupies the body of the moon elf has already recovered to the point where he can cast legendary magic.
But in order to keep a low profile and hide his identity, he has not shown it to anyone for the time being.
He is very aware of how difficult it is to deal with his mortal enemy Ivicora Thagran "Sharp Tooth" and the entangled talisman that currently controls Calimshan.
Therefore, we will not act rashly until we gain enough power to defeat both of them.
Anyway, the elf body currently occupied can live for at least a few hundred years, and it can be transformed into a lich again after a few hundred years.
As the most powerful necromancy specialist mage in Faerûn, even one of them can be omitted. Shane VII has already completely defeated death.
Time has no meaning in his eyes.
Similarly, those ancient blue dragons Ivy Corasagran "Sharp Teeth" whom he regarded as enemies, as well as the lich and vampires in the entangled talisman, can also stand in the long river of time. The ruthless character in.
So there is no need to be too anxious. You can plan your revenge slowly.
The undead emperor even wanted to use Zuo Si's chess piece to penetrate into the entangled talisman and collect as much information as possible on the master of the talisman.
When the time is right, start a war between the Entangling Talisman and the "Sharp Teeth" of Ivicola Sagram.
When both sides were defeated, he suddenly appeared and killed all the enemies in one go, restoring the Xia En Dynasty that had been destroyed for nearly a thousand years.
......
Zuo Si, who had just crossed the Troll Mountain in the far north, obviously did not know that Zenora, who had always had a good relationship with him, was actually the Undead Emperor Xia En Seventh life.
Right now, he was sitting in the carriage, looking at the towering troll hills in the distance through the window, and a name came to his mind - Larok, the King of Wizards.
This powerful undead lich left over from the era of Netheril currently lives in an unknown place in these mountains, living quietly in the kingdom of undead creatures he created with his own hands. Living a boring life.
Unless someone comes looking for trouble without opening his eyes, he is basically harmless.
As a time traveler, Zuo Si really couldn't understand what these great arcanists who had witnessed the destruction of their civilization were thinking in their minds.
For most normal people, shouldn’t they try to accumulate strength and then recreate the glory of the Netheril era?
But neither Iolum, who started the golden age of Netheril civilization, nor Larok, the wizard king, seemed to have the slightest interest in this aspect.
Perhaps because it took too long to transform into a lich, it was inevitably affected by negative energy, slowly lost its sense of belonging to the country and race, and eventually became indifferent.
It is also possible that they know that with the second-generation magic goddess's modifications to the magic rules and the magic network, it is destined that there will never be a magic civilization as powerful as Netheril in Faerun.
In contrast, the great arcanist left over from the Netheril era, the famous "fat house" Lich Ovo in Faerûn, and the city lord of Shadow City who hides in the shadow plane—— Telamant Tanshur, on the other hand, is very interested in reviving the Netherese civilization.
The former does not behave like a lich at all, and even once pursued Lyla, the chosen one of the goddess of magic, and tried to use the artifact "Crown of Horns" to transform her into an undead form to become his bride. I almost succeeded in becoming a "Tauren" and gave Kelben's "Black Staff" green.
"Zos, what are you thinking about so absorbedly?"
Isadora interrupted Zuo Si's thoughts with two big curious eyes.
Zuo Si smiled and shrugged: "It's nothing, I just want to try to understand some people's thoughts. But unfortunately, I found that I am still too weak to understand those legendary spellcasters. Way of thinking. "
"Don't worry, I will always be by your side and do my best to help you fulfill your wish, even at the cost of my life," Isadora said seriously.
“Life is precious, never give it up lightly. Because only those who survive are qualified to talk about the future. If one day, unfortunately, I am killed by some more powerful existence. Then I hope You can escape and survive, and then find ways to get revenge instead of impulsively sacrificing yourself in vain." Zuo Si gently stroked the girl's long blond hair and spoke sincerely.
The longer they spent together, the more he felt that there was a big problem with Isadora's mental state.
Although it seems to have returned to normal on the surface, in fact, his character is very stubborn. Once he decides on something or someone, he will never change it.
For example, in the eyes of a girl, her eldest brother is an idiot and a waste.
Even if Bernard finally used the most traditional and bloody method of the Amn people to complete his revenge and regain everything that belonged to him, he still looked down upon him at all.
He even completely ignored the fact that there was such a close blood relative.
Every time the brother and sister met, Isadora would turn a blind eye to Bernard, as if this person did not exist at all, let alone say a word to the latter.
Just when the girl was about to say something, the carriage suddenly began to slow down and finally stopped completely.
Davian, who was in charge of driving, opened the door and said bluntly: "Master, just a little further on is the ambush site set by the enemy. If you need to summon help, now is the best time." "Finally. Has it started yet? I have been looking forward to it for several days.”
Zuo Si raised the corner of his mouth slightly and waited in the mage tower for many days without saying anything. 's staff sent a message.
In about ten minutes, he opened a portal to the mage tower through the connection of the land card on the spot.
The next second...
Including the little devil who is a familiar, the half-orc Rhett, Alena, the steel golem, Wilmes and the strange object, as well as the The super-giant mutated hound that gave birth to a litter of more than a dozen dragonborn pups poured out from the other side of the door.
Due to the two [Mystic] levels obtained in Candlekeep, Zuo Si's arcane spell casting level has reached LV7.
So the moment the little devil appeared, I felt the close connection between the two.
He is not even sure whether the [Spell Sharing] between the master and the familiar will take effect if he uses a spell card like [War God Possession].
If the answer is yes, then it is necessary to equip the little devil with a powerful magic weapon.
“Where is the enemy?”
Alena asked, looking around, exuding a militant aura.
"Don't worry. The enemy is ambushing on both sides of the road a few kilometers ahead. When it gets completely dark, it's time for us to rush over and start killing."
Zuo Si gave his follower a calm look.
Hearing that there were still several hours before the action could be taken, Alena suddenly felt like a deflated rubber ball. She sat down on the grass without a ladylike image and muttered in a low voice: "Damn it! I hate the long process. Wait.”
But no one will pay attention to her teasing from the chaotic camp at this time.
"I heard that there is a black dragon among the enemies this time?" Wilmes asked greedily.
"That's right. If you can completely subdue or knock this guy out without killing him, then you can share a share of the treasure in his lair."
Zuo Si made his promise straightforwardly.
He is not the kind of black-hearted capitalist who just makes people work without giving any benefits.
In order to encourage Wilmes to exert his "subjective initiative", the benefits that should be given must be given.
"No problem, leave it to me. It's just a lowly black dragon. I killed it with my own hands ten years ago."
Vilmes grinned with a cruel taste. Bloody smile.
You must know that the five-color evil dragon does not have as many stinky rules as the metal dragon of the good camp.
Especially the arrogant and cruel red dragon, may be a little kind to his own kind.
But when dealing with other evil dragons, they will never hesitate to kill them, and then sweep away the treasures in their lairs.
"No, no, no, what I want is not a dead black dragon, but a half-dead black dragon. You have to grasp the balance, otherwise the treasure will be gone." Zuo Siyi Profound reminder.
You don’t need to ask to know that this is the plan to make the black dragon into a creature card.
After all, he wants to be the man who collects illustrations of all creatures in Faerûn. Of course, not one of the different dragons can be left behind.
"Master, there is absolutely no need for you to worry about this. I will take over the body at the critical moment to ensure that the black dragon does not die."
The strange object suddenly inserted through the spiritual connection A mouthful.
Hearing this, Wilmes's face suddenly became ugly.
Because what she hates most is being forcibly deprived of control over her body.
I can only be like a bystander, watching my body being controlled by another consciousness.
However, Zuo Si obviously didn't care about the red dragon's little resistance. He pointed at the huge controlled mutated hound not far away and asked: "How has this guy performed recently? He is still so violent and full of energy. Aggressive? "
"Yes. It seems to be in a permanent state of rage.
As long as the control force becomes slightly weaker, it will immediately start attacking the sight range. All living things inside it until it is torn into pieces, chewed and swallowed
Through this frenzied eating, it not only acquires incredible regeneration capabilities, but also continues to grow larger and larger. .”
Qiwu explained in a tone without any emotion.
"Infinite regeneration and growth? Are there any weaknesses? For example, are you afraid of fire and acid like a troll?"
Zuo Si touched his chin with an interested look.
He was really curious as to what kind of mysterious space he entered when he lit the spark, which could contain such an amazingly powerful chaos factor.
It is estimated that this behemoth's body has no trace of "dog" genes at all, and has completely mutated into another unknown creature.
What also puzzled Zuo Si was that he had clearly stayed in that space for so long, and even his clothes were contaminated with a large amount of chaos factors.
Why can humans still maintain their body shape without drastic changes, but only regress in age?
Could it be that all this is the effect of the planeswalker’s spark?
The strange thing answered without thinking: "According to the test results, its ability does not seem to be subject to any restrictions.
Whether it is strong acid, fire, frost, thunder and lightning, sound waves, positive energy, Energy attacks such as negative energy cannot prevent the rapid regeneration of its wounds.
But I haven't tried instant death spells.
So it is unclear whether it will be killed by magic such as the finger of death or the killing spell. "
Zuo Si nodded thoughtfully: "Okay, it seems to be a good fighting force. When the battle starts at night, try to let it deal with monsters such as trolls. By the way, what about those half-dragon cubs? Are they as unintelligent as their mother? "
"No. The half-dragon cubs are quite intelligent and only become violent when extremely angry. If nothing else goes wrong, the next generation will mate with other dogs, and a stable group of dragon-born magical creatures should be born. " Qiwu quickly corrected.
"It sounds like good news. ”
Zuo Si's mind immediately came alive when he learned that his first attempt at cross-breeding a "dragon dog" was a great success.
After all, dragons have powerful reproductive abilities that can go from A to Z in the Monster Manual.
If this is not used properly, how can it be worthy of the dead Bertorgas.
When I get back, I will arrange all the "Dragon Horse", "Totoro", "Dragon Tiger", "Dragon Bear", "Dragon Eagle", "Dragon Lion", "Dragon Elephant" etc. .
Ensure that this mature red dragon has the largest number of heirs in Faerûn.
I don’t know if the creatures still retain the ability to reproduce after being turned into cards.
If so, the two white dragons and the Oranli multi-headed dragon can all be used.
Seeing Zuo Si's terrifying reaction with his eyes shining, Wilmes immediately felt a chill rising from the bottom of his heart. He couldn't help but shiver and quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at him.
She had seen the miserable situation of the goblins under the Mage Tower, and understood what a terrifying soul was hidden in the body of this boy who looked only ten years old.
Just camp on Zuo Si's side and wait patiently for dark, the ambush site a few kilometers away.
The Dracolich Barisriat has quietly completed the poisoning mission using the shadow army hidden in the darkness.
A whole jar of mixture of viruses, bacteria and toxins separated through divine power was put into the cauldron one after another, and was devoured by the monsters.
Even the senior officials and apprentices of the Emerald Society are no exception.
After all, as long as a person is not dead, he must supplement his nutrition through eating to maintain his own survival needs.
The five high-level mages felt that everything was under control, so they did not use detection poison on the food with added ingredients.
It is estimated that in their view, they are the one taking the initiative to attack and have the absolute initiative, so there is no need to worry too much.
The only ones that are not affected are probably the undead creatures and constructs.
The vampires who retain the memories and wisdom of their lives are definitely the biggest threat to this ambush.
And Balisriyat was not sure whether the mixture of viruses, bacteria and toxins could have an effect on the black dragon not far away.
Time passes minute by minute.
When the sun finally set in the west, the surrounding environment became dark, and the sound of horse hooves finally came from far and near.
Not long after, a carriage slowly appeared in the middle of the road.
"Do it!"
After confirming that the person sitting in the carriage was Zuo Si himself, a high-level mage from the Emerald Society immediately sent an attack signal to others.
In an instant!
Another high-level mage who had been waiting for a long time released the eight-ring magic [Dimensional Lock].
Unlike the four-ring [Dimensional Anchor] which only lasts for a few minutes, the duration of this spell is calculated in "days" and its coverage is amazing.
Basically once it is released, it means that no one can escape through teleportation magic until the winner is determined.
The moment when a barrier shining with emerald green light enveloped the carriage.
Several [Advanced Dispelling Magic] fell from the sky!
Directly damaging spells such as fireballs, lightning, strong acid, and frost flew over the sky, smashing the magic carriage presented by the six-member Amn Council to pieces on the spot.
But this is not the end.
Various charm control spells followed closely.
[Grease Technique], [Spider Web Technique], [Stinky Cloud Technique], [Aivar Black Tentacle], [Restraint Technique], [Law: Shock], [Dominate Humanity], [Retarded Technique], [Confusion], [Deep Sleep], [Human Immobilization], etc. were thrown down as if they were free of money.
In order to successfully capture Zuo Si, the senior leaders of the Jade Society spent a lot of money.
The moment the spell bombing ended, the vampires immediately controlled trolls, hobgoblins, bugbears and other cannon fodder to swarm forward, surrounding the carriage wreckage.
Just as one of the high-level mages was looking forward to seeing the half-dead target, a joking voice suddenly came from above his head.
“Are you looking for me?”
I saw Zuo Si, who was originally supposed to be sitting in the carriage, but at this moment he was standing in the sky above his head by virtue of his elector ability [Walking in the Sky].
Obviously, through the card [True Phantom], he successfully deceived the enemy in the first round, which was also the long-planned and most violent round of spell bombing.
"No! Our plan has been exposed! Quick! Get him down from the sky!" The leading high-level mage turned around and shouted at his companions.
Just when another high-level mage was about to chant a spell, Zuo Si suddenly took out a jar filled with unknown dust from his bag, then opened the lid and lifted it downwards.
Before the former had time to react, he activated a [Wind Creation] card.
As a strong wind blew by, the dust in the sky was blown in front of the high-level mages of the Emerald Society.
Following the mage who had just chanted half of the spell, he immediately felt that his eyes, throat, nose and throat were extremely itchy, and he could not maintain his concentration on casting spells.
After just two or three seconds, I couldn't help but start sneezing, crying, and having a runny nose. At the same time, it became extremely difficult to breathe.
Not only him, but all people or monsters who accidentally inhaled the dust showed similar reactions.
Some were so severe that I couldn't breathe at all. I fell to the ground and my face was red. Even if I drank several bottles of [antidote] and [disease removal agent], there was no sign of improvement.
In this state, not to mention chanting spells and casting spells, even activating slightly more complicated magic items is quite laborious.
"Ahem...you...what did you do to us? Why...why didn't the potion work?" A high-level mage finally panicked.
At this moment, he realized how terrible it was to be an enemy of the chosen ones of Talona, the goddess of poison and disease.
Looking at the group of enemies struggling on the ground, Zuo Si pretended to be kind and explained: "It's very simple! You are not poisoned at all now. Nor are you suffering from the plague or disease that most people think.
Or maybe you were poisoned before, but the toxins have been exhausted and caused irreversible changes to the body's immune system.
Of course, if you understand what the immune system is. < br>
What I just sprinkled was ordinary pollen.
It's just a trigger, a key to triggering a reaction called anaphylaxis.
This is a stress response that occurs in the human immune system.
Strictly speaking, it is not a disease at all.
So the potion you drink will not have any effect.
At least magical spells and potions such as [Remove Disease] cannot cure it.
How about it, does it feel bad to be attacked by your own immune system?
Don’t worry!
This is just the beginning, the real fun is yet to come.
You know, in order to entertain you well, I have carefully prepared several feasts. ”
After saying that, Zuo Si raised his hand and lightly snapped his fingers.
Snap!
When the sound echoed in everyone's ears, the mage, who was already suffering from hay fever, immediately felt his trachea contract violently and spasm.
At the same time, it is accompanied by severe symptoms such as uncontrollable severe coughing, shortness of breath, dizziness and headache, fever all over the body, and chest tightness.
You don’t need to ask to know that these are asthma caused by viruses.
Since pollen allergy is an attack on the respiratory tract, the combined power of the two is definitely not as simple as one plus one equals two.
The most important thing is that the mages of the Emerald Society have just drunk all the [antidote] and [disease removal potion] they carried with them in panic, and now they have no treatment methods when facing real diseases.
Several old mages who were originally not in good physical condition gradually became confused when their brains were unable to obtain sufficient oxygen.
Seeing that there were two high-level mages who did not give up the struggle and were still trying to use magic items and props, Zuo Si immediately activated the third gift after toxins and viruses - bacteria without hesitation.
To be precise, it is a mutant diphtheria bacillus that has been enhanced at an epic level.
This is also a bacterium that can wreak alarming damage to the respiratory system and cause severe inflammation.
Obviously, Zuo Si knew very well what the caster's weaknesses were, so he used such a combo attack targeting the respiratory system.
First use a small amount of toxins to destroy the immune system, causing it to inevitably cause an allergic reaction to pollen, and at the same time trick the enemy into drinking the [antidote] and [disease removal agent] that they carry with them.
Then a two-pronged approach is used to control the asthma virus and diphtheria bacilli to multiply in a short period of time, ensuring that the mage cannot sing even one word of the spell.
And as breathing becomes more and more difficult, the hypoxic brain cannot maintain normal thinking and consciousness at all, and naturally cannot maintain the concentration state necessary for casting spells.
Can't even concentrate for a second to activate magic items, let alone give orders to the undead and constructs.
Unless some high-level wizards wear magic items that can instantly transform themselves into spirits, undead creatures, or constructs.
Otherwise, you can only fall into a coma due to slow suffocation and become a lamb to be slaughtered.
Relying on his understanding and application of toxins, bacteria and viruses, Zuo Si easily took down the five highest-level high-level mages present, as well as a large number of low-level mages and monsters that were affected.
Although there are a few guys in the distance trying to use fireball and lightning for long-range attacks.
But unfortunately, their spellcasting level is obviously not high, and even the elect's ability [Protection from Energy Damage] failed to penetrate and was completely absorbed.
