Chapter 463: Scramble and Melee (10,000-word chapter, please subscribe)
As we all know, triangle is the most stable shape, and the triangle relationship is also the most stable relationship.
Because when the strength gap between the three parties is not very large, no party can resist the siege of the other two parties at the same time, and it will eventually reach a stalemate.
If you want to break this deadlock, you can only add more variables through mental games or introducing a fourth or fifth party.
The most important thing is that the sudden appearance of Irenicas made both Sazastan and Vesalun realize clearly that they are not the only ones who want to compete for this opportunity to become gods. There are many strong men hiding in the darkness waiting for opportunities.
So they both gave up the opportunity to decide the outcome through a spell duel, and began to shift more attention to guarding against possible sneak attackers.
After all, the current situation is that Sazastan holds the Eye of the Storm, and Vesharun holds the knowledge to use this eye to make himself a god.
It can be said that both sides have mastered a crucial part of the title of god.
This means that both of them are out-and-out prey in the eyes of potential competitors who currently have nothing.
Compared with how to capture the other half, how to protect the half in hand is the most important.
Since Sazastan and Veshalon had been fighting each other for a long time, they knew each other very well, and soon they exchanged glances quietly.
Just a second later, they attacked Irenicas at the same time.
Among them, Sazastan showed off his unique skill, which was to use sixteen-level spell slots to instantly cast a powerful nine-level necromantic spell [energy absorption].
With the blessing of the two super demons, Irenicas had no time to react. He immediately felt the terrifying energy-absorbing magic effect all over his body.
This energy absorbs not only magic energy, but also life energy. Many lichs and high-level necromancy-based specialized mages like to use it very much.
Legendary mages including Sazastan, Velshalon, Shane VII, Larok, and Ovo are among the best.
They are even willing to use thirteenth level or higher spell slots to give it instant cast and a series of other super-magical effects.
Lalocque even used eighteen-level spell slots to add powerful spells on top of instant extreme effects.
The reason is very simple!
This spell can weaken a creature from all aspects, reducing the target from at least two levels to eight levels.
And due to the addition of instant cast, it is very difficult to defend.
Once you take one shot, you will immediately lose a series of blessings such as vitality, spell slots, immunity, resistance and other special abilities corresponding to the level.
Especially the lost spell slots. Even if you immediately use restoration spells and other magical spells and potions to restore them, the previously lost spell slots cannot be regained until you get sufficient rest.
Leaving aside the spell slots of levels one to nine, the spell slots of level ten and above that can only be obtained by reaching the legendary level will basically be attacked by extremely effective energy-absorbing spells coupled with metamagic skills. Lose at least two of your highest level spell slots.
This is definitely a fatal blow to a legendary mage.
What's even more terrible is that Vesalun also used his highest-level spell slot to instantly cast an extremely effective energy-absorbing spell.
These two people obviously aimed to drain Irenicas' level directly and then capture him alive to obtain information.
One extreme energy absorption reduces eight career levels, two equals sixteen career levels.
Even a powerful spellcaster above level 30 may not be able to escape the situation of becoming a grandson in the face of such a terrifying weakening.
But Erinikas is indeed a high elf mage, and his understanding of magic has long gone beyond what most mages can understand.
After identifying the two lich's instant spells, he had already been prepared for the other party's sudden attack, and almost immediately activated the anti-magic force field at the same time.
Since this spell will eliminate all magical power within a three-meter radius of the caster, the powerful energy-absorbing spell was forcibly suppressed by the anti-magic force field as soon as it took effect.
It must be said that in this confrontation, which lasted less than a second or two, Irenekas successfully replaced the opponent's two sixteenth-level spell slots with a ten-level spell slot. It can be said that it is earned with blood.
And until the anti-magic force field effect disappears, you basically don’t have to worry about any spell attacks from the opponent, making yourself temporarily invincible.
Of course, also because of the effect of the anti-magic field, he cannot cast any protective, summoning or even offensive spells.
Seeing this scene, Sazhastan immediately realized that this was a strong man with spellcasting ability that was comparable to his own, and he was not an opponent that could be defeated in a short time.
So he quickly adjusted his strategy and did not launch any more attacks. Instead, he carefully probed: "Who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am! What's important is that you must pay Get out of the eye of the storm!”
Irenikas’s eyes flashed with chilling paranoia and madness.
Obviously, he has not changed at all because the legendary lich in front of him is the chief of the red robed mage necromancer faction. He still has the same attitude as before, "I must get what I want." .
In other words, his deep-seated pride of being an elf makes him look down on any human being at all.
"Hmph! You also want to become a god?"
Sazastan was obviously angered by the other party's arrogance.
But Irenicas seemed not to hear the sarcastic tone, and nodded naturally: "Yes! I have a reason to become a god! Which of you is willing to hand it over first? thing, I promise to help him kill another enemy. "Hahahaha! Do you think we are fools at this time?"
Velsalun also laughed mockingly.
He did not deny his determination to kill Sazastan.
But compared with hatred, it is obviously more important to become a god.
After all, once you become a god, it means opening up a huge and insurmountable gap with mortals.
At that time, you don’t even need to do it yourself. As long as you give a little sweetness to the believers and mortals who are eager to gain power, there will naturally be a large number of cannon fodder vying to work for you.
"There's no harm in trying, right?"
Erenikas shrugged his shoulders disapprovingly, not taking this failure to heart at all.
After all, he never expected from the beginning that two lichs with legendary spellcasting levels would be fooled by such a cheap provocation.
I just wanted to confirm whether the two people suddenly joined forces to attack me, whether it was a coincidence, or whether they had temporarily put aside their grudges and formed an alliance.
But now it seems that it is neither a coincidence nor an alliance made by putting aside grudges, but out of safeguarding one's own interests.
This also means that neither Sazastan nor Veshalon will go all out, but will leave enough means to defend against each other.
As a result, the situation inevitably fell into a stalemate again.
And a long stalemate means that unpredictable variables will occur.
While the three legendary mages were holding their breath and concentrating on how to resolve this situation that was unfavorable to everyone, a large number of portals suddenly opened out of thin air.
Following this, Aznar Sruel appeared on the battlefield with several red-robed chiefs who opposed Sazastan.
Along with them appeared several other chiefs who took orders from Sazastan.
There is no doubt that the appearance of these people makes the situation more bizarre and complicated.
Because there are so many objects that need to be vigilant and wary, even the most courageous Irenicas has a nervous and solemn expression.
After all, Ser's red-robed mages are not a bunch of trash like the masked mages of Askatra. Their high quality and strength are quite famous throughout the entire Faerûn continent.
Although it is not comparable to the Elf High Mage on Everlasting Island, it is still a force that cannot be underestimated.
At least Irenicas would never dare to fight against so many red-robed mages by himself.
Especially the combined spell casting ability, which allows low-level mages to gain enough power to threaten or even kill high-level mages in a short period of time.
"Sazastan, I think we'll stop here for today. What do you think?" Veshalon took the initiative to suggest.
As more and more red-robed wizards appeared, he clearly realized that his original quick-fix plan had gone bankrupt.
What will be staged next is a melee between multiple forces competing for the only chance to become a god.
Rather than staying and being exposed to danger, it is better to retreat early and make other plans.
At least you can reduce risks, preserve your strength, and wait for the next opportunity.
The two biggest benefits of becoming a lich are that you have endless time to wait, and the other is that you will never lose your cool and reason due to emotions such as anger and greed.
“You used legendary magic to blow my castle into ruins, and now you see that the situation is not good and you want to just slap your butt and leave?”
Sazastan glared at two full of His cold eyes stared intently at the enemy he had been entangled with for centuries.
Velshalon grinned and asked, "What else? Do you still plan to keep me? Don't forget, I still have other choices."
With the skill of speaking, this powerful man The legendary lich sets its sights on Aznar Thrul, and the implication is self-evident.
If Sazastan is forceful, then he will directly form an alliance with these opponents, and then tear the entire Ser in half to officially start a civil war.
You must know that although there are many factions and conflicts within Serge and the red-robed mage today, they still maintain a unified parliamentary system on the surface.
But once they break up and start a civil war mode, it will inevitably lead to a loss of lives and plunge the originally prosperous and powerful country into a comprehensive recession.
Obviously, this is unacceptable to Sazastan, who hopes to unify the entire Ser without harming its foundation.
So after being silent for a long time, the chief of the Necromancer faction finally slowly spoke five words from his mouth.
“You can go.”
“Thank you! I believe it won’t be long before we meet again.”
After that, Velshalon He released a signal to his followers, and then began to prepare to cast teleportation magic.
But in the process of chanting the spell, the dazzling silver fire suddenly flew close to him like sharp arrows at extremely fast speeds, exploding next to his head.
The next second...
Boom! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
With a deafening loud noise, the silver fire from the deepest layer of the magic network directly swallowed the undead creature and completely decomposed his body into countless residues and fragments that were difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.
Vesharon, the legendary mage and almost becoming the Lich God, was instantly killed without even the slightest time or chance to react.
Following the direction of the silver rocket arrow, everyone could clearly see the petite female figure with long silver fluffy messy hair.
She is the chosen one of the Goddess of Magic, the most dangerous and possibly the most powerful Storm Queen Xinbu among the seven sisters in the North.
The most important thing is that most red-robed mages are scared of this woman, very afraid of her silver fire and exclusive spells that can release several, a dozen or even dozens of magic spells in one breath. Serializer.
If we talk about the several basic spell sequencers currently circulating on the continent of Faerûn, the principle is to compress two or even three spells together and then release them in one breath.
Then Xinbu's spell sequencer is to direct the spells that were previously stored somewhere to hit one or several targets at once.
As for protective magic...
Sorry, in the face of this kind of firepower advantage that mixes a large number of magic with different energy attributes, most protective spells will be broken down instantly.
Sometimes the sequencer is interspersed with the release of advanced dispelling magic to ensure that the kill can be completed quickly.
So when Xinbu appeared, many red-robed mages began to subconsciously become nervous to the point of sweating, and some low-level mages simply lay down on the ground and pretended to be dead.
Because, based on years of fighting experience, the Storm Queen usually disdains attacking people who have fallen to the ground and lose the ability to resist.
There is no doubt that with the fierce reputation established through violent means, Xinbu is now equivalent to a special treasure for the red-robed mage, and its deterrent power is directly full.
What's more, she didn't come by herself this time. She was accompanied by a beautiful woman in her thirties who looked mature and charming.
Creepy magical flames surround the latter's body.
Maybe the outside world doesn’t know who this stranger is following the Storm Queen, but the red-robed mages know it very well.
She is the famous Cursed Fire Queen - Sandra Hisel, a ruthless person who is no less dangerous than the former.
It is said that in a battle that broke out in Zhentil Keep, the crazed Sandra Shisel single-handedly defeated Manson and Fuzor Chambery, and also killed a large number of their men.
Even Mansong's mage tower was blown off the cliff by the power released by the fierce curse fire.
Because the power of curse fire has some properties such as magic absorption, energy enhancement, medical treatment, etc., it has strong restraint on the caster and is a typical "first sight kill".
Among them, magic absorption can extract energy from the spells cast by the opponent, while medical treatment can use the absorbed energy to treat one's own injuries.
This means that unless the curse fire user can be killed in one round, he can absorb unlimited energy to restore himself to the original state, consuming all the spell slots, scrolls and spells of a spellcaster alive. Magic items.
If you don't understand the power of the Cursed Firebringer during the battle, you will most likely be pinned to the ground with a blaster.
But the problem is that the extremely special power of cursed fire is very rare and cannot be mastered through learning. Instead, it needs to be passed on to the next generation through blood inheritance.
So more than 90% of spell casters may not even know what curse fire is, let alone understand its principle and essence.
So to a certain extent, Sandra Xisel poses a much higher threat to the red robed mages than Xinbu.
Looking at these two strong women who stood at the pinnacle of mortal power, Sazastan's heart suddenly sank. He narrowed his eyes and asked, "What exactly do you want to do in Serre?"
"What, are you scared? Sazastan!" the Storm Queen asked with a slightly raised corner of her mouth.
It can be seen that killing Vesalun made her feel quite good, and she even had a faint smile on her face.
As a madman who made a bet with others to see who could kill a hundred lichs first, and finally won, Xinbu would not act like Elminster or Kelben. Precision calculation and prediction, but highlighting the word "reckless".
As the saying goes, a fool beats a master.
Many of her subordinates were defeated because they were not used to this mindless bombardment of massive spells, and were ultimately defeated by her.
Just look at Vesharon who has turned into bone dregs and you will know how terrible it is to become an enemy of Xinbu.
Often if you are not careful, you will be swallowed up by the overwhelming spells.
Even Irenicas, who was confident in himself, subconsciously took two steps back at this moment, wanting to stay away from these two women who exuded dangerous auras.
"Afraid? How is that possible! This is Sel! This is the territory of our red robes!"
As he said that, Sazastan glanced at the other chiefs who were enemies of him. It seems to be hinting at something.
Aznar Sruel obviously heard the voice-over, and immediately stood up and pretended to echo: "Yes! This is Sel!
Queen of Aglaron, I advise you to It's better to leave immediately, otherwise don't blame us for taking retaliatory actions afterwards.
Maybe we can't do anything to you, but the civilians of Aglalon will have to pay the price for your actions."
Hearing these threatening words, Xinbu's face instantly became extremely fierce: "What did you just say? Do you dare to repeat it again?"
In an instant!
Aznar Sruel felt that he was locked by the Queen of Storm and the Queen of Cursed Fire at the same time. Dense beads of sweat instantly appeared on his forehead. He opened his mouth several times to say something harsh to save face, but in the end I gave up at the last moment.
Because he witnessed with his own eyes the process of Vesalun being killed instantly, he was not sure whether he could really withstand it.
What's more, the current situation is so complicated and delicate, God knows what Sazhastan will do.
Don’t be plotted and used by the other party again, it will be embarrassing and embarrassing.
Seeing Aznar Sruel choose his heart under the intimidation of Xinbu, Sazastan suddenly revealed his strong disdain.
With such magnanimity, magnanimity and courage, do you still want to replace yourself as the ruler of Ser?
What a joke!
Only the strong are qualified to lead the Red Robe Mage Organization to realize its huge ambition!
Thinking of this, Sazastan stood up decisively, slowly raised his hand to show everyone present the crystal ball with the Eye of the Storm sealed in his hand, and said meaningfully: "I know, You are all here for the eyes of Talos, the God of Storms.
But I can tell you clearly that no one can take it away from me.
Especially you, Storm Queen Xinbu.
If you dare to act wild here, then I will release it over Aglalon tomorrow.
The country you hold dear will be engulfed by a horrific storm, and millions of civilians will die in a matter of days. "
Speaking of this, the Lich paused for a moment, turned around and stared at Irenicas: "As for you, the unknown mage, I will also use it to destroy you.
Believe me, in the face of Talos' destructive power, your poor magical power will have no effect at all.
So I sincerely suggest that you'd better leave Serre immediately and completely disappear from my sight. "
"Oh? Are you really willing to give it up? "
Xinbu obviously saw through Sazastan's bluff at a glance, and suddenly released the silver fire in his body, exuding an inviolable majesty.
" Try not to Do you already know? ”
Sandra Xisel also followed suit and increased the power of her cursed fire to the extreme.
Everyone could clearly see that a crown-shaped flame slowly rose above her head.
There is no doubt that this is the most powerful power of the Cursed Firebringer - the King's Fire.
When this spell takes effect, it absorbs all magical attacks.
Yes, you heard it right, all magic attacks.
Including one to nine rings and even above nine rings.
This is why the Spellfirebringer is the nemesis of all spellcasters. In addition, physical attacks against the Cursed Firebringer must first be protected by the King's Fire.
If the enchantment level of the weapon is not high enough and the hardness is not strong enough, the moment it touches the Flame Crown, it will melt into a pool of molten iron, even to the weapon holder himself. Cause severe burns.
"Do you have to force me like this? Don't you know that Soth is behind all this?"
Sazastan's tone was full of anger.
"So what? Now the eye of the storm is in your hands, not in Soth's hands. If you want to blame, you are too greedy and were attracted by the bait he threw out."
As a typical chaotic neutral camp, Xinbu is obviously not a reasonable person.
In her opinion, it was wrong for Zuo Si to use the Eye of God to deal with the red-robed mage, but he was still one of her own.
Even if we break up with Elminster and start a confrontation, it will not be the turn of outsiders to dictate.
“So you came here today just to fight me to the death?”
Sazastan was obviously about to go crazy with anger, and his pupils were flashing with a frightening red light.
First, he was deceived by Zuo Si into taking away the entire set of red-robed mage’s magic tattoo-making technology;
and then he was used as a tool;
Finally, after paying for After obtaining the Eye of the Storm at a huge cost, I realized that I had fallen into a huge pit.
He didn't even have time to study the power contained in the Eye of God, before his lair was reduced to ruins by a legendary spell.
Strong enemies came one after another.
If it weren’t for the lack of certainty of victory, Sazastan would have burst out.
"Hahahaha! Do you think you still have a chance to defeat the enemy?"
Xinbu raised his chin slightly and laughed wildly.
Just when she was about to invite Sandra Xisel to take action together, Ericas suddenly suggested: "Your Excellency Sazastan, I think we can conclude an alliance now. What do you think? ”
"Huh? What do you mean..."
The Lich suddenly turned his head and stared at the mage with exaggerated muscles who had launched a surprise attack on him as soon as he appeared.
"It means literally.
I am not a greedy person.
As long as you agree to give me half of the power in that eye, then I will become your most loyal and reliable ally
After all, the Eye of the Storm can turn a mortal into a demigod, which means that even if its power is divided into two halves, it can still allow us to complete the transformation from mortal to god.
In addition, I have some research on gods, divine power and divinity.
It can bypass Velshalun and complete the process of becoming a god alone.
I believe you will be interested.
After becoming a god, we can continue to maintain this covenant and work together, just like the three gods of death back then. ”
Irenekas extended an olive branch at a critical moment.
He obviously didn't want Simbu and Sandra Xisel to take away the Eye of the Storm from Sazastan, so after thinking about it for a moment, he decided to help the latter.
“What?!”
Sazastan was startled at first. He couldn’t believe that this legendary mage, who had never heard of it before, could actually master such an amazing weapon. Knowledge.
But he soon realized that this proposal was quite good. At least he didn’t have to spend time getting the knowledge necessary to become a god from Velshalun. He responded without hesitation: "Deal! But! I want to confirm the authenticity of that knowledge first!”
"No problem! But before that, let us join forces to deal with these two menacing women."
Speaking, Irenicas quickly revealed his body and snatched it from the son of Baal. of divine power.
In the blink of an eye, the bloodthirsty divinity transformed him into a killer, and pounced directly on the Queen of Cursed Fire, Sandra Xisel.
Because it is also blessed with an anti-magic force field, the latter's curse fire cannot cause any damage to it at all, and can only use the power called "ascension" to fly briefly to distance itself.
As for Sazastan, he activated a wishing scroll, directly restored his previously consumed spell slots by making wishes, and used his best skills to face the Storm Queen Xinbu.
Suddenly, the entire ruins of the castle were filled with dazzling arcane auras and instant magic.
Although in the battle with Sazastan, Xinbu always firmly held the advantage.
But on the other side, Sandra Xisel was suppressed by Irenicas and was in a state of embarrassment and danger. She was almost torn to pieces by the killer's sharp fangs and claws several times.
After all, the most powerful thing about the curse fire user is that it can absorb the opponent's spell power and then convert it into its own curse fire energy to heal injuries, or in turn attack the opponent.
But now, Irenekas gave up casting spells, and instead directly put an anti-magic force field on himself, using the power of the Son of Baal to transform into a killer and engage in hand-to-hand combat, forcibly destroying Sandra. ·Hisel’s biggest advantage.
This is why he dared to come to Sere alone to seize the Eye of the Storm from many strong men.
"Xinbu! Help me! I can't hold on anymore!"
After being attacked continuously and torn open with several deep wounds visible to the bone, Sandra... Sissel finally couldn't help but ask for help from his allies.
“Damn it!”
The Storm Queen couldn’t help but curse in a low voice, left Sazastan behind and teleported a short distance to her allies, raised her hand and released a force field. The wall immediately blocked the oncoming killer.
There is no doubt that the wall of force spell is one of the very few spells that can continue to be effective without being affected by the anti-magic force field.
In addition, the rainbow series of spells, artifacts and divine powers are also unaffected.
The silver fire given to the chosen ones by the goddess of magic is naturally included.
This is why Elminster was often able to defeat spellcasters who were more powerful than himself in spell duels when he was young.
He only needs to get close to the opponent first, then release the anti-magic field, and then rely on the power of swordsmanship and silver fire to defeat the opponent in a few rounds.
Just when Xinbu was about to use silver fire to severely injure Irenikas, who had transformed into a killer, he suddenly heard Sazastan in the distance begin to chant long spells, seeming to be preparing a legendary spell with amazing power.
But she had no time to counterattack, so she could only pull Sandra Xisel and retreat quickly.
After getting out of the range of the anti-magic force field, instantly activate the teleportation spell and disappear in place.
After just a few minutes of fierce confrontation, everything finally returned to calm.
Sazastan even interrupted his concentration on casting spells and quickly stood with the red-robed chiefs who were taking orders from him.
Aznar Srul, after estimating the strength gap between the two sides, decisively led his men and chose a strategic retreat.
He has witnessed with his own eyes the power of the combination of Irenikas's anti-magic force field and the transformed killer, and he has yet to find any way to crack it.
Ever since, the war ended in an anticlimactic manner.
But Sazastan is undoubtedly very aware that he is completely exposed to the sun at this moment and may face new challenges at any time.
So we quickly negotiated with Irenicas who had changed back, and finally reached a condition that both parties could barely accept, and temporarily became allies who were at odds with each other in face and heart.
They all know very well that once the other party finds an opportunity, they will definitely find ways to seize the eye of the storm and swallow up the power of the seal inside.
......
At the same time, far away on the streets of Baldur's Gate, Aberdare and his group were running around frantically, avoiding the pursuit of the Flame Fist mercenaries.
Because they had just entered the city and wanted to expose Sarevok's crimes, they were framed by the officer controlled by the shapeshifter.
Before Jasila had time to defend herself, all kinds of shit basins were pulled down one after another.
In less than a day, this team was implicated as the murderer who poisoned Duke Iltan, the real culprit behind the massacre of Duke Silvershield, the insidious villain who attacked Duke Belt, and the person who was bribed by the Zhentarim. Assassin and a series of titles.
In order to squeeze out the use value of this brother, Sarevok blamed Aberdare for all the things he had done.
After successfully obtaining the position of Duke, he no longer intends to continue playing this kind of house game, but is eager to launch a war and massacre as planned.
The desperate team finally had no choice but to follow Thrall and Montaro's suggestions and came to the Zhentarim stronghold in Baldur's Gate City.
Xi Manmeng, who had already arranged everything, was sitting in the secret room at the moment, looking at the tall son of Baal with great interest, as well as Jasira and Khalid, who were harpists beside him. .
After a full minute, he crossed his hands on his chest and said with a half-smile: "I already know about your situation and request. But everything has a price, and I don't think you will object to this. , right?"
"Of course! As long as you can help kill Sarevok! I will do anything for you!"
I have been blinded by hatred. The double-eyed Aberdare made his promise without hesitation, ignoring Jasira's desperate wink at the side.
He was not a kind person originally, but a mercenary who was greedy for money, lustful and impulsive.
As long as the employer gives him enough money, he doesn't care who he kills.
"Haha, very good, I like your decisiveness and straightforwardness.
But now that Baldur's Gate is completely controlled by Sarevok, it is already difficult to clear up the frame-up you have suffered here. Impossible.
Now, I can only offer another option: join Zhentil Castle's army and kill Sarevok in the upcoming decisive battle. br>
What do you think? ”
Xi Manmeng calmly offered the conditions he had prepared.
He had long been instructed by Zuo Si to lead Aberdare and his party to the battlefield near the Troll's Claw, so that the two sons of Baal could meet and meet their fate.
But what Ximan doesn’t understand is why Zuo Si would think that the guy in front of him who looks stupid and easily manipulated will be the opponent of Sarevok who is ambitious and has powerful power. .
"I have no objection. But now that the entire Baldur's Gate is hunting us, is there any way you can let us escape?" Aberdare asked through gritted teeth.
"Of course there is no problem! In fact, we have already dug several secret passages under Baldur's Gate that can lead directly to the outside of the city. But the problem is that this service is not free."< br>
When saying this, Ximanmeng deliberately pretended to be greedy, took out a gold coin, bounced it high with his thumb, and then grabbed it with his palm.
“How much does it cost?”
Imoen probed cautiously.
After this period of adventure, she has realized how dangerous the outside world is.
Especially when being forced into a desperate situation like this, the opponent will 100% open his mouth.
"Hey! Fifteen thousand gold coins!"
Xi Manmeng smiled and quoted a price that made everyone stunned.
"Asshole! You are taking advantage of others' danger to rob!"
Aberdare was furious in an instant, raised his fist and hit the hardwood table hard, creating a crack on it. .
Obviously, as his divine power and divinity continue to improve, he has gradually begun to break away from the category of mortals and show some characteristics of divine creatures, such as increasing strength and physical attributes.
But Xi Manmeng did not panic at all. Instead, he kept a smile and explained: "Don't say that.
Robbery?
I have never done such a low-skilled job. Don't even bother to do it.
Besides, don't you think this is much faster than robbery?
Mark my words, young man.
In this world, if you want to make a lot of money, you have to be able to provide services that others can't refuse.
In this way, you can make whatever price you want.
Because the other party has no choice at all.
Of course, if you think it's too expensive, you can turn around and leave, fighting your way through hundreds of Flame Fist mercenaries.
If you succeed in the end, then I guarantee that your reputation will be heard throughout the entire West Coast. ”
Seeing the confident look on the vampire mage's face, Aberdare felt like he was going to be blown away. He turned around and wanted to leave to fight the Flame Fist mercenaries on the streets outside.
But Jasila took a deep breath to stop him, and dissuaded him in a low voice: "Don't be stupid!
Although you are a powerful warrior, there is absolutely no way you can become hundreds of people again. Thousands of Flame Fist mercenaries fought their way through.
Don't forget about Sarevok and his men.
If our position is exposed, we will be in trouble. It's no different than committing suicide.
Do you want everyone in the team killed? "
"But I can't swallow this breath! "
Aberdare raised his head and revealed a pair of eyes full of madness and murderous intent.
"Then leave your anger to Sarevok! Smash his plots and ambitions on the battlefield! ”
Jasira tried to divert the anger of the sons of Baal and calm down the almost boiling divine power and divinity.
She knew very well that the power of the God of Murder in Aberdare was becoming stronger and stronger as the killings continued to increase.
This is completely opposite to what Gillian originally wanted to achieve.
But the problem is that Jasira is just a druid, and has a very limited understanding of divine power and divinity. He has no idea how to solve it. He can only find ways to delay and divert it so that he will not be completely lost. control.
"Huh - okay! I listen to you!"
After taking a few deep breaths, Aberdare finally suppressed the bloodthirsty impulse and forced Holding back his unwillingness and anger, he took out some gold coins and money orders and paid the "tunnel usage fee" of 15,000 gold coins.
Soon, he led several others into the narrow passage less than two meters high and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
The team members completely walked away, and Xi Manmeng immediately took out the Shuoyou mobile terminal and dialed the first contact at the front.
In about three to five seconds, Zuo Si's image and voice were transmitted through this machine.
"You are contacting me at this time. Do you have anything important to report?"
Xi Manmeng nodded quickly: "Yes, Your Excellency.
According to the script and requirements you provided, I have led Aberdare and his party to the predetermined battlefield.
Sarovok has also become the Duke of Baldur's Gate and is about to lead the army on an expedition.
The show is about to begin. ”
“Is it finally starting?
In this case, let's add another fire to them.
Let Fuzor Chambery sweep the surrounding towns and immediately march westward, assuming a posture to attack Baldur's Gate.
Also, keep an eye on the shapeshifters and other forces in Baldur's Gate City.
After this good show is over, I will conduct a big cleaning there and clean up all the dirty things. "
Zuo Si quickly gave instructions with a playful expression on his face.
"As you wish! ”
Xi Manmeng bent down and bowed gracefully.
It is easy to see from the joy in his eyes that he enjoys working under Zuo Si.
Because the latter can always provide nearly unlimited resources and power for its own deployment.
This is completely different from the previous Zhentarim under Manzon's leadership.
Especially with top combat powers like Wilmes and Culremos, Ximanmeng can have enough spare power to deal with various variables when executing many plans.
