The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 313 Unexpected Conflict

"Ovo? How did you get into such a miserable state?"

"Damn it! I hate mud, and I hate toads rolling in the mud even more—" the crippled skeleton let out the anger in his heart weakly.

"What? You met a slaadi?" Everyone present was startled. Slaadi are biped creatures that look like frogs, and they mainly live in the Chaos Sea in the outer plane.Their primary duty, as we all know, is to clean up the battlefields of bloody battles, to feed on the dead, and to use the wounded to complete their own reproductive cycle.In a sense, slaadi are the killers of daemons and demons, but they usually don't take part in the bloody battles between the baatezu and the tanar'ri because they have no interest in deadly plots.

The Owo undead said angrily: "There is a large hunting group, and there are two dead slaads in it (dead slaads are the most powerful individuals in this race, they are close to Immortal, the most powerful slaadi)! Damn toad, I almost suffered a big loss. But they are not easy, I put [order return] and [mud torrent] before leaving, hope there will be more parasites Survive a few."

The people around couldn't help but gasped when they heard the words.

[Return to Order] The legendary arcane spell of the evocation system, the spell is released instantly, forcing all creatures of the chaotic alignment in the effective area to be stunned for a period of time, and the stunned creatures of the lawful alignment will return to their normal state.However, after casting this spell, any caster of a non-lawful alignment will start to deflect towards the lawful alignment (that is, chaos turns to neutral, and neutral turns to law).
[Mud Torrent] is another variant of the evocation-type legendary arcane [Flood Torrent]. Casting this spell on the mud plane is simply a devastating natural disaster. Cooperating with [Return of Order] to deal with the history of chaotic nature Laadi, I am afraid that other than those two dead slaadi, it is very difficult for other slaadi to survive.

The Owo undead soon saw William, and his anger immediately rose several squares to fill the tube, and without thinking about it, he roared and rushed up, releasing a ball of burning flames while angrily said: "Damn bastard! I'm going to kill you!" Perhaps no one thought that the undead of Owo would attack suddenly, and everyone watched the lich attack William without reacting for a while.

William is not a character who likes to stand still and be beaten. He prefers to control the enemy first, or to say that the first attack comes first.William, who was already at the peak of his strength, had an amazing speed of instinctive reaction. Even if his physical strength had not yet returned to its peak state, William had already made the "best" choice before Ovo's fire spell was formed.

The human eye will produce the characteristic of persistence of vision when looking at things, that is, when the image disappears/changes, the image in the brain will not disappear immediately, but will remain for a short time.Although it is not known whether the visual system of the Lich is the same as that of a normal human being, no one can clearly see how William moves. When they are surprised that the flames released by Owo hit William, more precisely hit him When the afterimage remained in place, there was a crisp sound of "bang".

The hapless lich, all his protective spells had been exhausted in the battle with the slaadi, so the spell of the undead of Owo fell through, but his head was smashed to pieces by the violent fist of William .

Once the head was broken, the broken body of the Owo undead was completely scrapped. He had to wait a day before he could use the power of the phylactery to make a new body.Everything in front of them was changing so fast that many people hadn't even figured out what happened before the ending was already doomed.

Suddenly another cold scream sounded: "I'm going to kill you! Despicable reptile—" It was the lady "Scavenging Jackdaw". An ugly old woman who looks like a human and seven minutes like a skeleton ghost. Ms. "Scavenging Jackdaw" raised her hand and shot a [Shadow Arrow], followed by the second and third
Although the speed of these shadow energy arrows is not very fast, the threat to William is not too great, but there are more opponents around, and he is worried that they will besiege him next, after all, he just "killed" the opponent's A member (William didn't know much about the lich, he didn't know that the only way to kill the lich was to destroy the phylactery).A fierce light flashed in William's eyes, and he pulled out the Autumn Knife and turned his hand to shatter the arrows composed of shadow energy. With the support of the new special effects of the Autumn Knife, the blood in his body surged wildly, and he was ready to kill. Kill as many enemies as possible and escape from here.

But what happened next was beyond William's expectations.

"Stop! Morisa—" Tabari spoke, but Iolum of Sinrenal was the first to strike. He quickly countered the spell of "Scavenging Jackdaw" Morisa , and used magic to isolate its control.

At the same time, Iolum of Sinrenal released more spells, and quickly moved the men in black robes who were close to William to other positions, because William had already attacked them.The protective spells of these powerful top spellcasters in Faerun are definitely top-notch and meticulous, but they are almost useless when facing Qiushui Dao, because it is a sharp blade that once killed a saint. , although Iolum of Sinrenal rescued these people in time, there was still an unlucky lich whose neck was cut off by William.

Under normal circumstances, a lich will not die immediately if its neck is cut off, but it does not include when it is cut by Qiushui Dao, because this is a precious sword that can cut souls, and its lethality is much stronger than before .The decapitated lich let out a miserable howl, which was a silent spiritual howl, piercing the soul sharply, making people deeply feel the pain he endured.

The Lich's soul howl didn't last long, as his soul soon burst from the unbearable pain.This poor lich is even more unlucky than the undead of Owo, because Owo's body is only destroyed, but the soul carried by the body is not destroyed, so it only takes one day for him to recover, and he retains the body before the destruction. memory.But that poor lich was much worse. With a broken soul, he needs to wait a year to be resurrected, and when he is resurrected, he only has the memory of his last death, which means that this poor lich will lose the ability to be reborn. All the memories of the body that William destroyed.

"Wait a minute! William, we are not enemies," Tabari, who had already reacted, shouted hastily, "Because Morisa studied the dark mysteries too much, her soul was eroded by shadow energy, and she often had difficulty controlling her own sanity. , in fact she is not a bad person."

William stood with a knife in his hand. He couldn't find a better time to attack because he was concerned about the opponent's magic attack, so he could only say in a cold voice, "But I can't trust you, let alone I have already killed two of your companions." -"
