Chapter 359 Miracle (a 10,000-word chapter, please subscribe)
As a sinister, cunning and malicious person, Jarlaxle's favorite thing to do is to tease his prey before killing it. .
I saw him deliberately slowing down his pace, approaching with a light and dangerous pace, waving a thin sword emitting a dark red light with one hand, and with the other hand Then he was playing with a light sword of the same color.
Several bodyguards with low professional levels obviously could not sit back and watch their leader being killed, nor could they bear the suffocating mental pressure, so they rushed forward with roars.
The next second...
Jarlaxle's arms moved at a speed that was almost impossible to detect with the naked eye, demonstrating his terrifying attainments in martial arts.
The bodyguard at the front had just entered the attack range when the sharp rapier swiped directly across his neck. The blade was almost unimpeded and passed directly through the gap between the neck bones.
It wasn’t until the victim’s head and neck were completely separated, and a column of blood more than one meter high erupted from the aorta, that he staggered forward a few steps and fell to the ground.
The second bodyguard did not fare much better. Jarlaxle used the power generated by swinging his rapier to spin in a circle close to the ground to avoid the attack, and then used another rapier to close against him. Jaws stabbing into the brain.
In less than 0.5 seconds, he effortlessly killed two people in a row without even getting a trace of blood stained in the process.
As for the third and fourth endings, they are similar. In close combat, you can't even touch the hem of your opponent's clothes. You receive your lunch box in the blink of an eye, and without exception, they all hit the vital point and kill you with one blow.
If Drizzt's fighting style is about speed and consistency, overwhelming the enemy with continuous attacks, and eventually being torn into pieces by sharp swords, then Jarlaxle's fighting style is elegant and deadly. , each blow is aimed at a fatal vital part, and then the attack and defense transition is integrated through steps and dexterous movements.
Except for himself, no one knows whether those fancy and dexterous steps are attacking or dodging, and they almost never parry or block, relying entirely on dodging to resist all attacks, whether forward or toward. After that, he can jump at least one and a half meters away in an instant.
In addition, this guy never wears any armor, even the very light dark elf chain mail. All his movements seem to have an indescribable beauty, as if he is not fighting at all. Instead, he is performing a gorgeous stage play.
After taking care of all the bodyguards, Jarlaxle gently shook off the blood stained on the sword blade, and then said in a cat-and-mouse tone: "Tell me, how do you want to end yourself? Life? I am a very kind person and will definitely fulfill your last wish before you die."
"You... don't come here! If you kill me! His Majesty Shane VII and His Excellency Soth will not let you go!" Apke backed away in panic.
At this moment, he has realized that the dark elf in front of him is definitely a more powerful and dangerous person than the ace killer Entreri of Calimport.
"Soth?!"
The moment he heard the name, the expression on Jarlaxle's face changed instantly. He narrowed his eyes and tried: "The one you mentioned just now Is Soth the chosen one of the goddess of poison and disease and the goddess of magic? "That's right! Lord Soth is a powerful spellcaster!" Apke instantly seemed to have grasped the need for help. He nodded like a straw and threatened in a stern voice. "If I die, no matter where you escape to, he will find you and kill you one by one. But if you let me go, I will pretend that what happened today never happened."
moment!
Jarlaxle fell into silence, his eyes rolling around, not knowing what was going on in his mind.
However, Entreri, who never said many ruthless words, walked out of the tavern with corpses everywhere, frowned and asked: "What the hell are you doing?
Why don't you kill me? Did this guy leave quickly after getting the bounty?
You know Calim Port is not peaceful now.
Especially the Xia En VII who killed the legendary dragon king Aiweiko Lazaglan is definitely not someone we can compete with head on.
The magical power he masters is many times greater than that of Gonfu, the chief mage of Menzoberranzan. "
"Do you remember the guy I met in Menzoberranzan who called himself Soth? I told you last time. Jarlaxle suddenly raised his head and asked.
“Of course I remember. He made you suffer a big loss, and also lost a newly recruited mage. Entreri replied without thinking.
The reason why the killer was so impressed was because the two had known each other for so long. This was the first time he had seen this insidious and cunning mercenary leader. A person is so scared and jealous that he doesn't even have the thought of revenge after suffering such a big loss.
Jarlaxle undoubtedly noticed Entreri's inquiring eyes, and immediately explained with a gloomy face: "Through some special channels, I learned that Soth is not actually a dark elf, but a surface human.
He has many identities.
The most eye-catching one is that he is the chosen one of the two goddesses, and he successfully killed Manzon, the leader of the Zhentarim, in the battle to conquer Luskan. br>
In other words, this is a monster that is no less dangerous than Shane VII.
I am not sure that for the reward of 200,000 gold coins, we have to offend two people at the same time. Is it worth it to afford an enemy?
After all, Soth is not Shaan VII. The latter's focus will be on the conquest of Calimshan and Tethyr for a long time in the future.
Not only does he have a wide range of activities, he also has huge power on the entire west coast of Ferenc. "
Entreri lowered his head and thought for a moment, and then asked expressionlessly: "Do you think we still have a choice now? Or do you believe in the promise given by the leader of the Thieves Guild? "
Hearing this, Jarlaxle was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but sigh with a smile: "Yes! From the moment we started, there was no possibility of retreating. In this case, it is better to do nothing and get the two hundred thousand gold coins first. ”
With the last word blurted out!
The dark elf warrior showed a fierce look in his eyes and raised the rapier in his hand, intending to cut off Apke's head directly.
But before the sword edge fell, a familiar voice sounded behind him.
"Is it disrespectful to me to plot so loudly? Or do you think I will be killed by a ridiculous fireball?"
In an instant!
Both Entreri and Jarlaxle turned around at extremely fast speeds, wanting to use the swords and daggers in their hands to kill the enemy standing behind them.
Unfortunately, light weapons such as daggers, rapiers, and light swords cannot even penetrate when they encounter dragon scale shields and dragon scale armors, let alone slashes, which are inherently difficult to break. A's attack method.
As a result, without exception, they were bounced away by a huge reaction force.
As for the only powerful magic weapon that can cause effective damage - [Charron's Claw], even the sword and wrist were grabbed by a strong and powerful hand, and then forcefully broke back.
Click!
“Ah!!!!!!!!”
With a scream, Entreri's right arm was bent to a ninety-degree angle, and the weapon in his hand fell to the ground.
But this is not the end!
Davian from The Return of the King was not polite and directly picked up the famous killer with one hand like a kitten. He wielded the red crystal sword that exuded terrifying heat and cut off the opponent's legs on the spot. and arms.
Because the temperature of the sword body was too high, the wound did not bleed at all, but was completely carbonized in an instant, forming a black cut surface.
“Damn it!”
Seeing that Entreri was killed so easily, Jarlaxle didn't dare to fight. He immediately used his unique walking skills and jumped back one and a half meters, then turned around and tried to run away.
Unfortunately, before he could take a few steps, he heard the sound of a spell being chanted behind him.
The next second...
A pool of black, sticky and greasy substance appeared out of thin air under the feet, and quickly spread to cover a large area.
As expected, Jarlaxle slipped and fell down.
You don't need to ask to know that this is the rare large-scale control spell [Grease Technique] in the first level.
Following this, several thick gelatinous black tentacles that often appeared in the anime rose from the ground.
Each one is at least four meters long and as thick as the waist of a healthy adult male!
The black tentacles did not give Jarlaxle any chance to use magic items, and wrapped around him with lightning speed, and began to twist wildly.
【Aivar Black Tentacles】!
A four-ring conjuration system that is notorious but loved by countless mages and warlocks.
Its biggest feature is that it can ignore magic resistance, firmly restrain those enemies whose strength attribute is not high enough, unable to move, and at the same time cause considerable physical squeezing damage.
If the body of the subject is not strong enough, it is very likely that the bones all over the body will be strangled alive, or the internal organs will rupture and cause bleeding due to squeezing, and eventually die suddenly on the spot.
As the saying goes, "greasy" matches "tentacles", and even high-level monks will fail.
Since [Grease Technique] will greatly reduce the friction and make the whole person stand unstable, once you are entangled by [Aivar Black Tentacle], you basically can't expect to break free.
Just look at Jarlaxle's constipated and painful expression at this moment, and you will know how much squeezing force he is enduring. Even though the muscles all over his body are tightened, after a few seconds, his arm still makes a crisp sound of bone breaking, and in his hand The magic weapon he was holding also fell to the ground.
No way!
This is the inevitable price to pay for insufficient strength attributes when facing the ravages of black tentacles.
Unfortunately, although Jarlaxle is an excellent dark elf warrior and even has a total professional level of up to LV18 (Warrior LV12/Duelist LV6), his strength attribute is not high, only a mere Fourteen o'clock.
Of course, this is not his problem alone, but that men of the entire dark elf race are generally poor in strength and physique, and Drizzt's strength attribute is only thirteen points.
In contrast, women have considerable advantages in this regard.
The most intuitive thing is to put a dark elf male and a dark elf female together. It is easy to tell that the latter is taller than the former, and the muscles of the arms, thighs, back, abdomen and buttocks are also bigger. more developed.
Some Lolth priestesses who have received professional fighting training can wield whips or maces with just a few magical spells, and press the most powerful male warriors in the family to the ground and rub them repeatedly.
This is also the most direct reason why the status of women in dark elf society is much higher than that of men.
It’s not that men don’t want to seize power, but they really can’t defeat them.
Seeing that Jarlaxle had become a prisoner, Davian immediately walked closer, turned his shield around and smashed it down with the serrated edge at the bottom.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
“Ahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!”
With heartbreaking screams, Jarlaxle’s limbs were also beaten to pieces. Suffering from sexual fractures and muscle tears, he was thrown together with Entreri, who had been crippled before.
The brothers and sisters looked at each other with despair, then chose to give up resistance and close their eyes to prepare for the final judgment of fate.
Obviously, because he has followed Zuo Si for a long time, Davian has some understanding of the timing and techniques of casting spells. He understands that when dealing with creatures with high magic resistance like dark elves, it is best not to use the opponent directly. as a target, otherwise the spell is easily resisted.
On the contrary, indirect magic effects such as Bigby's Big Hand series of spells, [Grease Spell], [Spider Web Spell], [Aivar Black Tentacle], and [Strength Wall Spell] are more effective.
What's more, his natural spellcasting ability is now equivalent to that of a LV29 warlock, and it will not be affected in any way even when wearing armor.
In other words, the red dragon armor, dragon scale shield and crystal sword on the body are actually equivalent to transforming part of the dragon's body into weapons and equipment when it transforms into a human form.
Of course, Davian knows very well that his experience and skills in using spells can only be used to bully rookies who have no spellcasting ability and whose spellcasting level is far lower than himself.
When fighting Ivicola Sagram, he used no other spells at all except using fire magic to increase his health.
It’s not that you don’t want to use it, but that you don’t dare to use it.
Once an opponent catches a flaw, the result is likely to be disastrous.
Instead of trying to do whatever you want, it is better to concentrate on using your best hand-to-hand combat and tightly entangle the opponent to buy time for the master or Shane VII.
When the dark elf warriors in the corner holding crossbows saw the miserable state of their leader, they immediately showed their selfish racial nature. Without hesitation for a second, they immediately dispersed and infiltrated into the surrounding small groups. lane.
Beautiful qualities such as loyalty, friendship, and bravery will never appear in them.
Not to mention beautiful qualities, for most dark elves, not stabbing or poisoning them in the back is considered quite kind.
What's more, most of them were recruited into the team not long ago by Jarlaxle, and they haven't even established a sense of belonging.
Davian was not polite at all to the dark elves who were trying to escape. He directly released several fire wall spells to block their retreat, and then threw fireball spells into the alley one after another.
Boom! boom! boom!
After a burst of explosions and dazzling fire, these guys who had bad intentions and wanted to come to the surface world to burn, kill and loot were all turned into incomplete, charred black corpses.
After all this was done, the Flame Dragon Knight turned his attention to the female hybrid ogre monk who did not choose to escape, and asked in a slightly curious tone: "Why don't you run?"
"I can't leave Jarlaxle behind! Without him, I simply can't survive on the surface world. I might be sold as a slave in a few days." The woman gave the answer very simply.
Because whether they are of ogre blood or dark elf blood, they are quite unpopular in the surface world.
Not to mention the surface world, even the highly tolerant dark elf society only maintains the minimum tolerance for aliens like her, and does not enjoy the privileges that women should have at all.
This is why she chose to leave Menzoberranzan and join Jarlaxle's team.
"Very good! I admire your courage. Now let me see what you are capable of."
Davian raised the red crystal sword and placed it on the shield, posing [ Dragon Fencing] posture.
"As you wish!"
The hybrid ogre's feet suddenly exerted force, and his whole body was like an arrow, rushing forward at a speed that a warrior could never match. , without saying a word, he started a crazy series of attacks.
Because they use their fists as weapons, the monk's attack frequency is much faster than that of the warrior. In just a few seconds, the sandbag-sized fists fell on the shield like raindrops, making a burst of bang bang bang bang. sound.
A normal person would have been unable to bear the continuous blows at this frequency and would have started to retreat continuously. It would not be surprising to even drop the shield after his wrists were numbed by the shock.
But Davian was firmly nailed to the spot, his figure not even swaying at all.
Obviously, this level of power impact was not even an appetizer for him who had just had a fight with Ivicola Sagram. [ Escape Technique], which is a magic-like ability similar to [Any Door].
moment!
She came directly behind Davian from the front, and then used [Fighting Strike] to fill her hands with amazing energy, temporarily turning them into magic weapons as hard as adamantine, and then swung fiercely A fatal punch was delivered.
“Drink!”
The fist was accompanied by a white shock wave visible to the naked eye, hitting the back of the heart hard at a speed faster than the sound.
The next second...
boom! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Even Davian was unable to withstand the terrifying power of this blow. He lifted his feet off the ground and took off ten meters high before falling straight to the ground under the influence of gravity.
【Penetration Power】!
This is the most terrifying, destructive and lethal skill of the monk.
The biggest feature is that it can ignore all physical and magical resistance. As long as it successfully hits, it will definitely destroy the target's fragile internal organs and blood vessels from the inside through vibration.
Unless the vitality and physique of a creature are unusually powerful, it will basically be an instant kill with one punch.
Only monks who have reached LV15 are eligible to learn and use it in actual combat.
However, the disadvantage is that it is ineffective against constructs, ooze creatures, plants, undead creatures, and incorporeal creatures.
And because it places a considerable burden on itself, it requires a week of rest after each use before it can be used again.
As an [Advanced Dragon], Davian is obviously strong enough in both vitality and physical attributes.
He just spit out a large amount of blood from his mouth and nose, and felt an indescribable pain coming from his heart. He immediately pursed his lips and murmured to himself in a voice that only he could hear: "This is really powerful. ! It seems that you are qualified to be the master's servant..."
The words have not yet finished!
His body fell rapidly, and he was about to have a close contact with the ground.
But when he was less than half a meter away from the ground, the hybrid ogre monk endured the pain in his muscles all over his body and hit him again with a fist shining with magic halo. "Take another shocking punch from me!"
Along with the roar, a powerful aura was released from her body, impacting the spiritual world in an unimaginable way.
If the opponent's will is not firm enough, he will be briefly stunned for a few seconds and unable to make any reaction, allowing the monk to deal a violent blow to him.
But it is a pity that Davian was not affected at all. After taking the punch, he landed directly on the ground and did a roll to avoid the opponent's grapple. He got up and hit a shield with his backhand.
Bang!
With his terrifying power attribute, he immediately sent the opponent flying ten meters away, collapsing a brick wall with a bang.
"Asshole! What you hit me really hurts!"
Davian slowly got up from the ground, raised his hand and gave himself a seven-ring [Delayed Explosion Fireball] without saying a word.
After the violent explosion and loud noise, his previous injuries immediately recovered as before.
Not only was the half-blood ogre monk dumbfounded by this act of directly burning his face with a fireball, but Jarlaxle and Entreri who were lying next to him were also dumbfounded. Puke kept swallowing saliva to relieve the nerves that were so tense that they were about to collapse.
For the leader of the Thieves Guild in Calimport Dockside. Everything that was happening in front of him was too outrageous and far beyond his cognition.
"Weird...monster! You are simply a fucking monster!"
The inner defense of the hybrid ogre monk finally collapsed, and he began to roar like a madman.
She couldn't accept it at all. There were people in this world who could stand up from the ground like nothing happened after eating her [Penetration Strength] and [Shocking Fist].
Coupled with the frenzied behavior of using the seven-ring [Delayed Explosion Fireball] to treat injuries in person, a terrifying large-scale destructive plastic magic, it would inevitably lead to an explosion in anyone's mentality.
"Monster? No! This is the power given to me by the great master. You will understand it soon after you also become his servants."
After that, Davian didn't care whether the other party could understand what he wanted to express. He walked straight to the hybrid ogre monk and twisted off the other party's legs and hands like a twist.
The cruel movements and cold expressions made Epke, who was accustomed to all kinds of torture and interrogation processes, couldn't help but shudder.
Fortunately!
He still remembered that the strong man in front of him was the helper assigned to him by Zuo Si. He hurriedly ran over and asked in a slightly trembling voice: "Your Excellency... Your Excellency! What do you plan to do with these prisoners?"< br>
"Let your men come down and take them back first. Remember, no accidents are allowed, whether it is the people or the weapons and equipment they carry. Once the thieves who launched the rebellion in Calim Port are dealt with Guild, I will leave it to the master," Davian replied without thinking.
"Got it! I'm going to call someone right now."
Aipke quickly took out a whistle from his coat pocket, put it in his mouth and blew it hard.
After a while, his chief assassin, Bernice, came over with a group of people.
After understanding the situation, the latter immediately formulated an attack plan.
About ten minutes later, under the leadership of Davian, a small team composed of guild elites set out along the sewers and began to raid the nests of other thieves guilds one after another.
There are no fancy conspiracies, nor are there any tactics of poisoning, infiltrating, or buying off important figures in the opposing camp.
Instead, they broke into the door directly through physical means, and then started killing without mercy until the lair of a thieves guild was slaughtered.
With his unparalleled strength, Davian easily completed perfect assassination operations again and again.
After all, he directly used fire magic to seal all the entrances and exits every time, and did not let a single survivor go.
According to a certain industry leader, third-rate assassins only kill the target person of the mission, second-rate assassins kill everyone who finds them, and only first-rate assassins have the ability to kill everyone they see. .
Davian's actions were undoubtedly first-rate assassinations.
While a large-scale purge of the Calimport Thieves Guild was being carried out here, far away near the market in the busiest part of the city, two groups of people were in a tense confrontation.
One of the parties knows without asking that it must be a private armed force organized by nobles, wealthy businessmen and slave owners.
Their distinctive features are that their weapons and equipment are relatively good, and they generally have a certain professional level. They are basically either mercenaries, adventurers, or high-level slaves who have been brainwashed.
In addition, there were a large number of ordinary slaves who were threatened, intimidated, and dragged onto the streets to participate in the parade.
Out of fear of the powerful magical power of Xia En VII, although this group of people was larger in number, they did not dare to take the initiative to attack.
On the other side are the city defense troops and the Imperial Guards who have just sworn allegiance to Shane VII.
Since a large part of the officers have been purged, they are in a state of panic. Generally, their fighting will is not very high, and they dare not make enemies of these usually aloof and powerful figures.
Using a hemp pole to beat a wolf with fear of both ends could not be more appropriate to describe the scene at this moment.
“These scumbags deserve to go to hell! They actually use innocent slaves as a shield to stand in the forefront!”
Paladin Elolin's face was livid with anger and she clenched the weapon in her hand, as if she would rush out on the celestial horse in the next second and kill all the culprits who were hiding behind the scenes to provoke all this.
"Calm down! You are a paladin of Ilmat! You are not a simple warrior! You must not do anything that goes against goodness and order! Otherwise, you will inevitably fall." Ago I gave the warning seriously.
Although he currently has similar impulses and unbearable anger, his rich experience over the years has allowed him to remain sober and rational.
"What are we going to do now? Watch these guys show off their power here, and then turn the hard-won decree to abolish slavery into a piece of waste paper?" Another paladin of the God of Justice Roared angrily.
Because the God of Suffering, Ilmat, the God of Justice, Tyr, and the God of Loyalty and Courage, Tom, have formed the "Three Holy Alliance", when a major event like this occurs, their churches , knights and paladins often gather together to act collectively.
At this moment, on the streets of Calimport, the three churches have gathered 60 priests, 100 paladins who came from all directions, a team of more than 400 people composed of warriors and monks, and A small number of mages and warlocks.
It can be said that their strength alone is enough to have a huge impact on the current chaotic situation in Calimport.
"I feel that we cannot wait any longer! This is a blasphemy against justice! No matter what the cost, we must carry out the bill to abolish slavery."
Loyalty and The chief priest of the God of Courage finally made his decision after much hesitation.
Because since the successful restoration of Shane VII, he has been the undisputed legal ruler of Calimshan and Tethyr in name only.
Likewise, His decrees are to be obeyed by all.
This also means that the group of guys who oppose the abolition of slavery can essentially be regarded as rebels, and they are also extremely evil rebels.
Killing and suppressing them does not strictly violate the doctrine and the creed of the paladin.
“I agree!”
The chief priest of the Church of Tire, the God of Justice, immediately agreed.
In contrast, the Ilmat priest, who was wearing a shabby linen robe, obviously hesitated. He raised his head and asked the two people before him: "If we take action now, what will happen to the slaves who are trapped? They will be injured in the melee. Even death."
"Sorry, I don't have any good solution for this. I can only separate the slaves from the mercenaries and thugs behind them as quickly as possible." The God of Justice. The officiant sighed helplessly.
The chief priest of the God of Loyalty and Courage said in a slightly excited tone: "You two, I must remind you that this is a great struggle to win freedom, dignity and equality. Just imagine, If we are timid today, then these slaves and their descendants will never get ahead and will have to be squeezed until they die. Slavery in Calimshan must be abolished, no matter how much blood is shed in the process! How many people have died because of this, it’s all worth it.”
With the last word blurted out, the old man who looked to be in his sixties raised high the shining white holy weapon in his hand. A two-handed giant sword of light.
Inspired by him, many paladins, priests and warriors couldn't help but get excited, and began to chant slogans for the abolition of slavery.
As lawful good, these people have seen too much of the dark side of Calishite society.
Especially the unscrupulous behavior of nobles, wealthy businessmen and slave owners who humiliate, torture and kill slaves for fun every year will cause some young people in the church to become angry, lose their minds, ignore the law like crazy, and rush directly to Want to kill each other.
As a result, he was either killed in counter-attack, or he was arrested and executed afterwards.
Even if you are lucky enough to survive, you will quickly lose your belief in justice and slowly degenerate into a dark guard or a priest of the evil god.
Just when the fanatical atmosphere was about to reach its climax, Shaud Tarovan, who was appointed as the Prime Minister of the Empire by Shane VII, finally rode over on horseback and stamped the letter to the Emperor without saying a word. The sealed document was handed to the three officiants.
"What is this?" the chief priest of the God of Suffering asked in an uncertain tone.
"It is the authorization and appointment given to you by His Majesty." Shaud Talovan replied without thinking.
“Authorization and appointment?”
Driven by curiosity, the chief priest of the God of Suffering opened the document in front of everyone.
About a minute or two later, more than a dozen people around him gasped involuntarily after seeing the content.
Hiss...
Is Xia En VII crazy?
This thought came to everyone's mind involuntarily.
The reason is simple!
The entire document talks about one thing, which is to grant the three churches of the God of Justice, the God of Suffering, and the God of Loyalty and Courage the law enforcement rights within the Shan Empire.
In other words, from now on, their punishment of evil and promotion of good is no longer just instructions from God, but also represents the country and government.
Especially the chief priest of Tyr, the God of Justice, was so excited that he couldn't help himself.
Because this kind of power is exactly what he dreams of.
It took a full minute for the leaders of the three churches to recover from the shock.
The chief priest of the God of Justice asked impatiently: "Is this true? Can we really get law enforcement power in the future?"
Shaud Talovan nodded immediately: "That's right. Out of his trust in the three great gods, His Majesty decided to hand over this heavy and sacred responsibility to you. I hope you will not disappoint his expectations. And there are , based on what the nobles, wealthy merchants and slave owners of Calimport are doing now, His Majesty the Emperor has decided to treat them as rebels and kill them without mercy. In ten minutes, I will give the city defense army and the imperial guards an attack order. "
"Understood! We will cooperate with the army's actions and catch these damn guys in one fell swoop."
The chief priest of the God of Justice gave the guarantee without hesitation and handed over the authorization letter. He carefully folded it and handed it to an older paladin behind him for safekeeping. He planned to find a craftsman to make a transparent box to put it in when he returned and place it in front of the statue as a witness.
No way!
Although Ilmat and Tyr have many believers in Calimshan, in fact they have always lived a very miserable life.
After all, the leaders of Calimshan have been in the evil camp since the beginning of the Shane Dynasty, and have not changed from the beginning to the end, so the Church of the Good God is always in a state of being suppressed.
Not to mention the power of law enforcement, even the power of investigation can only take action after receiving a commission from the government. There is no way to attack the source of evil.
But it’s better now!
With the power of law enforcement, the three churches can perform their duties openly and crack down on all kinds of rampant criminal activities, so that Calimshan, which is full of crime and chaos, can be bathed in the atmosphere of order and kindness. Under the light.
Whether it is a priest or a paladin, this is a huge achievement, and will even be promoted to a saint after death.
Looking at this group of church members who were excited about gaining law enforcement rights, Shaud Tarovin couldn't help but slightly raised the corner of his mouth and said to the assistant next to him with a smile: "It's exactly what Mr. Soth expected. It seems that these three churches It is not as extreme as the outside rumors, but it may become a powerful helper in unifying Calimshan and Tethyr."
The assistant echoed with a sinister look: "Yes! These elm-headed priests and priests. The paladins simply don't understand that we make the laws, they are just a group of enforcers.
As long as some ambiguities are added to certain clauses, we, who have the final power of interpretation, will be able to do so. Easily manipulate the final outcome of the trial.
By the way, I heard that your Majesty plans to marry that Lord Soth and hand over the entire country to him. Is this true? ”
"Well, yes, His Majesty has already told me. You'd better put more effort into pleasing the future emperor in the future, and don't arouse his resentment in any case, otherwise I can't help you." Xiao De Tarovan warned solemnly.
"Understood! Please rest assured, I am the best at doing this kind of thing." The assistant's eyes showed strong confidence.
But Shawd Tarovin shook his head indifferently, and lowered his voice and warned: "Your way of pleasing others is too vulgar, it is better not to use it to show your shame. If it is true, The easiest way to win Lord Soth's favor is to understand his thoughts and understand what he wants. I suggest you refer to the Neransir Islands and Luskan when formulating laws." br>
“Thank you for your advice! This is trivial and disrespectful.”
The assistant calmly stuffed a dozen gold coin drafts issued by the Goddess of Wealth Church into the hands of his immediate boss. .
Judging from the skillful movements, it is obvious that this is not the first time he has done this.
Shawd Tarovan did not refuse, and accepted the benefit with peace of mind. He quickly rode to the temporary command post of the Guards and the City Defense Army, and read out the order of Shane VII in an unquestionable tone.
Not only that!
He also promised in the name of the emperor that as long as these rebels are killed, the army from top to bottom will receive 15% of the confiscated property as a reward, and at the same time have the opportunity to win daily rewards through a lottery. Aristocratic ladies who are simply beyond reach, wealthy businessmen's concubines as wives or concubines.
To sum it up in one sentence, give money, give women!
Although to modern ears, this way of boosting morale is primitive, backward, and full of barbarism and ignorance.
But the problem is that the effect is outstanding!
When these promises were passed down from level to level, the army that was originally worried about being purged instantly burst into deafening cheers, and its morale was directly boosted.
After a while, they showed the qualities that a professional army should have.
You must know that Calimshan’s army is not a ragtag group of militiamen like those of the Northland Lords Alliance.
Whether it is the city defense army or the Imperial Guard, they all have a certain proportion of spellcasters.
Yes!
You read that right!
It is a spell caster, mainly a professional mage group composed of mages and warlocks.
Although their general professional levels are not high, most of them are LV1~LV5, they can play a very large role in the war.
Especially in the Imperial Guard, even the lowest level soldiers are at least LV3 warriors, and they are truly the elite among the elite.
When they started to outline their attack formation, the slaves who were forced to the front row panicked instantly.
After all, slaves are usually afraid of the overseer's whip, not to mention these fully armed troops who represent the emperor.
Fortunately, it was not just the slaves who were in panic. The mercenaries, bodyguards, thugs, hired adventurers and high-level slaves who were following them were also panicked in an instant.
You must know that they always thought that they were just here to demonstrate a little, and they were not ready to fight a bloody battle that might cost their lives.
All of a sudden, the city defense troops and the Imperial Guards began to approach slowly at an orderly pace, while the people brought by the nobles, wealthy businessmen, and slave owners were constantly retreating, and they were completely overwhelmed by their momentum alone. .
At this time, the chief priest of Tire, the God of Justice, saw the fighter plane and immediately issued a charge order to the alliance formed by the three churches at the top of his voice.
Before others could react to what was happening, a charging arrow composed of more than a hundred paladins was the first to insert it from the side.
During the charge, three golden holy lights shone directly through the clouds, giving it an unimaginable increase in power.
A warrior of high level tried to pull up a shield wall to block the charge, but was directly knocked over by the celestial horse under Elorin's crotch, and then trampled over him.
There is no doubt that in order to completely abolish the notorious slavery in Calishan, Tyr, the god of justice, Ilmat, the god of suffering, and Torm, the god of loyalty and courage, took action together.
With the blessing of divine power, the believers of the three churches are all as brave as ten.
Especially when they witnessed the miracles with their own eyes, they became more and more convinced that what they were doing was affirmed by God and was a great cause that could not be more just. Even if they fell off their horses and were seriously injured, they would still be there. Do your best to push forward and never stop running.
