The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 283 Blockers

The Gray Wind Valley was not formed naturally, the entire mountain wall was a distorted section after being torn apart, it was more like a gap that was smashed into the middle of the Gray Wind Mountain Range by something.It is said that in the catastrophe at the end of the Netherese Empire, the largest floating city crashed here. Thousands of years have passed, and the proud Netherilians of the year have turned into a With the deposition of history, there are only some stone tower-like remnants left at the mouth of the valley.

When William and his party walked into the Stone Tower Forest, they were almost completely shocked by these ancient ruins.These stone towers brought them an indescribable visual impact, like a quiet virgin land suddenly popping up in the middle of the bustling and noisy city, and a modern steel building emerging from the deep mountains and old forests where snakes and foxes are rampant.

These stone pagodas look like they are made of stone, but in essence they are a kind of magical foreign material. Even after thousands of years of wind and sun, they are still intact with almost no flaws. They are as smooth as dark blue jade. The inside of the tower is inlaid with complex and mysterious ancient patterns.

Legend has it that these stone towers are the magic barriers used by the gods to block the Felin Mokui, but many people who know the truth about the Felin Mokui know that this is a wrong conclusion, because it is another group of monsters that really sealed the group of monsters—— Lun Jingwei.

For thousands of years, many people have thought about these things. Among them are kingdoms, lords, great warriors and heroes, mysterious law-controllers, and powerful beings from other worlds. But Without exception, they have nothing to do with these stone towers.

These stone towers are not only magical, but also dangerous. Once a powerful lord wanted to monopolize this magical stone tower. He built a strong castle around the stone tower as a barrier, but one day when he woke up, But he found that his castle was transferred to an unknown plane, surrounded by a large group of ferocious alien monsters.After a long period of nothing, the vast majority of people had to give up their coveting of this stone tower.

However, if someone passes by here, it will be fine, and there are very few monsters blocking the road near the stone tower. The broken valley behind the stone tower is also the most convenient way to cross the Gray Wind Mountain Range. This forest of stone towers has also become a unique one on the black road scenery.

Facing the mysterious stone pagoda forest, these few "country folks" all stared at the mysterious stone pagoda forest, just like grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden. of.William was also surprised by the existence of these strange stone towers, but he didn't have the mood to investigate carefully now, he was concerned about another thing - a group of uninvited guests blocking the way.

Behind the stone tower is the Gray Wind Gap, and a group of soldiers in purple robes and iron armor are standing in the middle of the gorge. These soldiers with swords, shields and crossbows look very similar to the purple robed guards in Locke Town, but their temperament is more important. They are more stern and fierce, and their equipment is better, but they are a group of iron-blooded men who have experienced many battles.

Leaving the women and girls to continue to marvel in the stone tower forest, William walked slowly to the front of the canyon with the autumn water knife, and looked coldly at the purple-robed iron-clad soldiers who blocked the way without saying a word, and the purple-robed soldiers were also silent That's right, they stood in silence for a long time, and it wasn't until the four Phinyas came out of the stone tower forest that the atmosphere of silence was broken.The four of them didn't expect someone to confront William here. Yasuna couldn't help but stepped forward and asked loudly, "Who are you?"

The silent purple-robed warriors remained silent, but a portal opened out of nowhere in the void behind them, and an elderly man wearing a black silk robe inlaid with gorgeous gold trim, with a gloomy and cold face, walked out of it.As soon as the old man appeared, with William's keen intuition, he felt an unprecedented sense of crisis from the body of the old man who didn't look strong.And William also noticed a detail. Although the old man looked a little old on the outside, his skin was almost as white, delicate and lustrous as the young girl.

Of course, there was one more thing that William didn't ignore, and Yasuna said it out in surprise: "Who are you? How can you use the teleportation spell safely?"

The old man with a gloomy and cold face just sneered, and did not answer directly, but ordered in a very arrogant voice: "Ants! Hand over Da Sophilia, and I may consider sparing your lives." At the same time, his His eyes flicked to the back of William, where there were two little girls hiding rather uneasy.

The old man's dark eyes passed through William's barrier, and he shot at the black-haired and black-eyed Mi Luna with great enthusiasm. He teased with a little fanaticism: "Da Sophilia, the teacher I used to fear most, I miss you How arrogant and arrogant, even the gods outside the sky have never been taken seriously by you. Looking at you now, you are so despondent that you need to pretend to be a child. When you killed the rebel of the goddess - Er De When you were in Rahn, being betrayed by Azuse again, you must feel very uncomfortable, right?"

"I really didn't expect that the one above would allow Elminster to take you in secretly. No wonder you haven't been found for centuries. But you will still fall into the hands of my lord, dear Darling Teacher Sophilia," the old man who appeared suddenly ignored William and the others who were with Miluna, even though there were two frost giants among them.

The person who called Miluna Da Sophilia said something to himself, but unfortunately, Xiao Miluna didn't mean to answer his words, and still hid behind William with Misha and watched the fun with cold eyes.

"Have you forgotten the past? It's really sad. The former shadow lady--Da Sophilia, the former demon devourer--Sladrina, who used to be." The old man who was quite self-deprecating laughed again. After meeting someone who used to be very prestigious, he changed his tone and shouted arrogantly: "I am the servant of Bane, the Lord of Darkness, the black-clothed archbishop of Zhentil Castle Cathedral, the manager of the Tomb Castle—— The mighty and important mage Tempus Blackthorne! Ants, you will welcome the embrace of the Lord of Death."

While talking, Blackthorne took out a staff with a large ruby ​​inlaid on the top from his back and held it in his right hand, while he held a small cluster of powder in his left hand and gestured a few gestures. A large fireball with a diameter of several feet was instantly shot out from the fingertips and flew towards William and the others.Everyone knows that one of the frost giant's weaknesses is fire damage, but it seems that he wants to get rid of William's family in one go.

It's a pity that attacking William with fire spells is a futile joke. Besides, the speed of the big fireball is not very fast, and it is about the same speed as the arrows shot by ordinary crossbows. Especially the big fireball is much bigger than the arrow, so look It was a little slow to get up, and William leaned forward very lightly, smashing and destroying the big fireball with one knife.
