The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 307 Should I Make Some Plays?

The seven villages of Nasr are very special. Six of them occupy one foot each to form the edge of an equilateral hexagram, and Maddara is at the center of the hexagram.The distance from Maddara to any of the six villages is equal.

Different from Emmanuel's crudeness, Maddalena is more like a small sturdy castle. From a distance, the most conspicuous building in the castle is a rather weird wizard tower. The reason why this tower is weird is because, generally The wizard towers in the world are all steeple towers with thin top and thick bottom, while the wizard tower in Meaddal is large and contrary to the common sense of architecture, it is in the shape of an inverted cone with a thick top and a thin bottom.

When he arrived at the gate of Maddalena, William discovered a fact that shocked him. The castle seemed to be completely integrated, and it was different from the man-made whole made of concrete in the previous life. The feeling is pure natural. The whole castle is carved out of a huge basalt purple rock (a kind of extremely hard volcanic rock, named for the purple broken lines on the cross section). After long-term weathering, it looks a little uneven, and at first glance it looks like a sand shadow painting with purple spots.

The city gate, which was also carved from Xuanying purple rock, was half open, leaving only a gap for one person to squeeze through. In front of the gate, two militia guards with spears patrolled back and forth.The equipment on the two sentry guards was completely in line with the style of the aboriginal militiamen in the countryside. The spears were low-quality goods made of thin iron sheets rolled up with a cone and fitted on hardwood sticks. It was out of place with the castle behind them.

However, William did not underestimate them. The eyes of the two guards were extremely fierce. Their exposed arms were muscled, their chest muscles were as developed as a woman's breasts, and their dark and shiny skin was covered with pimples of all sizes Scar, standing there looks like two human-shaped bears, carrying a first-class good man.In particular, what William cared about was that their vitality was extremely strong, and William even suspected that the two of them were no longer physically inferior to warriors at the peak of Ming Jin.

Seeing William and the others approaching, the two sentry guards glared over at the same time, their hawk-like gazes chilling the hearts of the bodyguards.One of them waved the thin iron-skinned spear in his hand like a grass vine, but it was too wide and almost broke the spear shaft, but no one on William's side could laugh.The man probably cherished the weapon in his hand very much, quickly and carefully put it away, and shouted sharply: "Who are you? No one else is allowed to approach here."

Palitru jumped off his horse quickly, and William and others also got off their horses one after another.Palitru stepped forward to salute and said in a respectful voice: "This warrior, I am Palitrujan Farned from Waterdeep City. I have brought news about the attack on Aymanla. I hope I can meet with the council. Senator Kukan."

The guard said coldly: "Wait! I'll go in and report." After speaking, he turned around and squeezed through the gap in the doorway into the castle with some difficulty.

The waiting time seemed to be very long and hard, although in fact it was only ten minutes, and several bodyguards were all very anxious, especially the remaining guard looked at them with cold eyes from time to time. The stronger bodyguard tried to jump on the horse and escape several times, even Palitru turned pale.Among the few people, William was the only one who remained calm, half-closed his eyes and didn't seem to care.

Not long after, a strange horn sounded in the castle, and the remaining sentry immediately said coldly: "Pailitru, you can go in now! The others stay outside."

Palitru showed embarrassment, and said: "This Mr. William is the one who really brought the news. Councilor Kukan may need him to answer some detailed questions later."

The guard's gaze sharpened immediately, and he stared at William coldly as if trying to see through him.William's half-closed eyes suddenly opened wide, and there seemed to be brilliance and sharp blades shooting out of the pupils of the eyes, which made the guard tremble. He closed his eyes tightly, and covered his trembling with his hands.William sneered in his heart, this idiot, no matter how you cover it up, it can't cover up your tearful "ugliness".

According to ancient legends, there is a great sage who can kill evil people and demons with a single look. William just used the legendary stunt of hurting people with his eyes.Since the battle with Ibrando, William has been thinking about the coercion of Ibrando's will, and he was deeply impressed by the divine power of the Holy One of the Cave.The bodyguards who were glared at by the sentry just now were fidgeting, but William realized a little trick, but it didn't have much lethality. It is hard to guess to what extent this move will develop in the future.

The sentinel had a hard time, covered his eyes and shouted loudly: "He can go in, but everyone else is going to get out! Get out as far as you can!"

The bodyguards didn't know what happened just now, and they were a little at a loss when they stayed there. Palitru waved his hand, and several people rode on their horses and fled away as if they were pardoned.

When the bodyguard on horseback ran away, the guard let go of his shielding arm, revealing an embarrassing face that horrified Palitru—a bitter melon face with tears and snot running down his nose.Palitru asked in shock: "What's wrong with you? Why are you crying like this?"

The sentry guard barely opened his eyes, but the tears flowed more cheerfully. He snorted angrily, but he didn't dare to look at William. After all, the impression William had made on him was too deep.The sentry was full of anger and had nowhere to vent. He turned around and walked towards the city with heavy steps. Palitru subconsciously looked at William. William shrugged innocently, indicating that I didn't know what was going on.

The process of entering Maddalena went smoothly, without any excessive criticism. When William entered the city gate, the sentry kicked hard on the stone wall next to him, and the stone gate behind him closed automatically and slowly. William looked at the city wall next to it, which was only a few feet high, and didn't take it seriously.

The sentinel led the two of them to a staircase leading to the ground, pointed to the stone tower not far away and said to himself, "Go down from here, go straight ahead, and go to the bottom of the tower, which is where you are going." After that, the tearful man ran away in a flash.

William turned his head to look at Palitru, and asked, "You have been here before, did you go this way?"

Palitru hadn't woken up from the surprise of the sentinel's "crying bitterly", and nodded subconsciously when he heard the words: "Well! Only the floating magic circle below can allow us to safely board the Wizard Tower, here." From The businessman in Waterdeep City suddenly came to his senses, immediately interrupted his words, and ran down the stairs in a panic.William sneered secretly, and stepped up to follow.

The stairs were very long, and William reckoned that he had walked down to a depth of nearly [-] meters. At the end of the stairs, there was a space several times larger than the castle on the ground.The light in the space is sufficient, as bright as daytime but not glaring, but unfortunately, William couldn't find a source of light.The space is nearly [-] meters high, and the ceiling of the dome is engraved with large secret lines and narrative images. Only William's eyes can clearly see the content of the image. It is a battle scene between humans and some kind of monster.

There is also a wizard tower in the distance, but contrary to the wizard tower on the ground, this tower is pointed, and the two seem to be opposite reflections.Palitru walked towards the wizard's tower without hesitation, and William followed unhurriedly. However, William regretted not long after he left. He regretted that he should not have entered here. There is an invisible The powerful force suppressed his perception, so that William could only sense a range of more than ten meters around him, which greatly suppressed William's early warning ability.

What's even more frightening is that every ten or so steps there is a guard wearing heavy armor, armed almost from the butthole to the throat. In terms of blood alone, each of them is not inferior to the sentry who guarded the door just now. Wei's powerful elite, his eyes are as cold as they are real.The distance from the gate of the city to the upside-down wizard tower was only a few hundred meters away. William saw a total of 27 armored guards like this. All of them had fierce auras. Their armor and weapons were decorated with mysterious magic patterns, and the magic patterns flickered. With a strange energy luster, even a layman like William can see that these are excellent magic equipment.

No wonder Palitru and the others are so afraid of the owner here. As a small castle, even if the underground space of Meddale is several times larger, its guarding force is too strong. Even Mirabar and Silvermoon City The average big city is more than a dozen streets away from it, and the second- and third-rate towns like Nasmai, Noisy Water City, and Locke Town are not worthy of carrying shoes for Maddalena. .

William didn't know how much power Maid Dalai still had hidden. Just these 27 powerful fighters who were comparable to the peak of Ming Jin were enough to kill him several times. You must know the difference in absolute strength between the peak of Ming Jin and the peak of Hua Jin It's not that big, what's missing is the control, comprehension, instant burst and effective utilization of qi and blood. Only by completely changing the marrow and changing the body, changing the physique and stepping into the realm of Baodan, can it be considered truly extraordinary.

Just when William was considering whether to run away, a soldier in armor comparable to the "Terminator" external armor walked over with a big stride, and the soldier walked up to him and shouted in a rough voice: "You two, I am Moya, the deputy of the first brigade! The consul is waiting for your presence in the hall, please follow me!"

A few thoughts flashed in William's mind, but he finally followed.While walking, William looked at the soldier Moya who was walking in front. He had already recognized the identity of the soldier. It was the sentry who came in to report earlier. Even wearing heavy armor can't hide his breath characteristics.

The more William looked at it, the more he felt that the armor on Moya's body was exquisite, thick, tight and delicate. Although Moya deliberately walked heavily, William could tell that the armor did not bring him much weight, just like a There is always a difference between a person who carries hundreds of pounds and a person who deliberately walks heavily while carrying a balloon weighing several ounces.Moreover, the sound of the armor was not right, there was no sound when it should be rubbing, and there was a "click" sound that shouldn't be there.William judged that this armor should be worn in a magic heavy armor that is as light as cloth leather and walks silently. It is really a good thing!Well dressed!William thought in his mind, should he also put on such an outfit for fun?
Uh!There are also Finia and Yasuna, these two wives are not very reassuring when they fight. Wouldn't it be "a match made in heaven" if they had such an excellent protective gear.

Well!It's also time to get Misha some sets that fit now and are ready for when she grows.
While walking, William looked at the outfit on Moya, his eyes gradually became eager.
