The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 334 The Arrival of the Three Goddesses

After escaping from the danger zone, William and the others breathed a sigh of relief as they watched the cloud of mushrooms rising in the distance. No one could be as calm as water in front of Xu Tianwei.Only Misha'er and Miluna may have children's hearts, and they forgot the previous crisis and unhappiness in a blink of an eye. Misha'er rolled her big eyes and shouted: "Where is Maomaowong? Why is Maomaowong missing?" Is it? We left it there. Brother, is my cat and cat worm dead?"

Although William knew that in the situation just now, the small body of Mao Mao Chong would not be spared, but he still smiled and comforted him: "Don't worry! That little thing is smart, it will take care of itself After a while the cloud clears, and I will go find the cat and insect.”

Only then did Misha'er smile happily, and she and Miluna happily turned their attention to the strange weathered rocks around them. It was the first time for the little girl to see the desert in her life, and everything she saw felt novel.

At this time, Lambert experienced a shocking change that ordinary people could not predict.Three huge meteorites landed on the ground. Although they produced shock waves and sound pressure that could destroy everything, they did not directly collide with the ground, but slowly suspended above the rock formation.

Afterwards, the three fires gradually cooled and condensed, and turned into three crystal clear crystal spiers, each of which was inlaid with a huge holy emblem.A purple dark moon, a pair of red phoenix eyes surrounded by seven silver stars, and a pair of black antlers against a blood-red background.The three spiers are thousands of feet apart, each occupying a point, forming a perfect regular triangle, half-suspended and faintly shining, but there is a hint of confrontation with each other.

The three holy emblems naturally represent three gods, Shar, the goddess of the night, Sulun, the goddess of the moon, and Beshaba, the goddess of misfortune. Incredible fact.

It should be known that Shar, the goddess of the night, and Su Lun, the goddess of the moon, are not only a pair of sister gods, but also mortal enemies that are difficult to resolve. The war between them can even be traced back to the distant creation era.

Beshaba also has a similar background. This lady of fortune and another goddess of fortune, Tymora, are twin sister gods. The two sisters have been fighting endlessly since their birth, and the contradictions between them are also almost irreconcilable.

Speaking of the birth of the twin sister gods "luck" and "bad luck" (that is, the fall of one of the most powerful gods ever - the goddess of fate Taj), the goddess of the moon, Su Lun, is almost the most direct witness and participant By.This caused Ms. Fortune to hate Su Lun, after all, Beshaba is the successor of Taj's dark side.

The three towers of the Holy Emblem constantly emit some kind of fluctuation to the surroundings. This kind of fluctuation is hidden and vast, but only the devout believers of these three goddesses can feel it. It is a pity that in this desolate lost place, there are few people. Even the rats have to flee, and it is almost impossible to find believers who belong to these three gods.

Therefore, the fluctuations emitted by the Tower of the Holy Emblem began to gradually strengthen, and gradually non-pious believers began to feel this inexplicable call, summoning them to surrender to that great existence.This call is unparalleled in its allure and exclusivity, and any listener who does not meet the requirements will be discriminated and eliminated and suffer permanent damage.

In the end, three listeners who were barely qualified were selected, including the caravan leader Mitoli from the Sword Coast region, another strongest mercenary guard, and the third was Lambert's guard captain.As mortals, they have always been unable to resist the temptation of the Holy Emblem Tower, so they can only walk into the Holy Emblem Tower involuntarily and accept their irresistible fate
When everything was over, the huge holy symbols in the tower of holy symbols were gone, and they were integrated into the body of the chosen one.Three figures walked out of the crystal tower. Their bodies belonged to mortals, but their souls were immortal divine power. The souls of the three mortals had already embarked on a journey to the underworld.

The strong mercenary guard is a burly man with a ferocious face, with hideous scars and an ugly face with unshaven beards, which makes the god who first occupied this mortal body very dissatisfied.As the narrow-minded malevolent goddess who inherited all of Taj's glamorous looks, Beshaba always prided herself on her maddening beauty.It is said that all men who have seen the girl of misfortune, if they are not burned to death by their own desires, will desperately try to satisfy the goddess's every whim and unreasonable request; and low self-esteem and fell into an inextricable madness.

Beshaba couldn't wait to use the power of spells to change her appearance. She began to chant the highest transformation technique. "His" movements were elegant and perfect, which fully met the needs of casting spells. This made Beshaba very proud , every god is a powerful spellcaster, but not necessarily skilled and knowledgeable enough.

The spell took effect very quickly. The first thing to be changed was the eyes. The azure blue eyes with some purple flashes flashed away. The centipede-like scars were smoothed out, the size of the bones was reduced, the pores shrank, and the hair fell off. , the skin becomes delicate and lustrous.
When the transformation spell came to an end, a low and mocking voice suddenly sounded: "If I were you, I would never use [Perfect Transformation] at this time."

Beshaba opened her eyes and saw that it was the half-elf Mitori, or it should be said that it was Sulun, the goddess of the moon who had occupied Mitori's body.Su Lun is the god with the most maternal brilliance among all the goddesses. Even if her body is a man at this moment, the brilliance of her body has not diminished.

Not far behind Su Lun stood the saint incarnation of Shar, the Goddess of Darkness and Night. Still carrying an indelible arrogance and excitement on her face, she finally captured her ancient enemy for thousands of centuries—her only sister, the Moon Maiden.

Shar hadn't tasted the joy of this kind of victory for a long time, and she even generously gave Su Lun a certain amount of freedom and the right to choose a saint to show her victory and majesty this time.Otherwise, according to the usual methods of the gods, Shar should have imprisoned Su Lun's divine essence instead of letting her walk on the earth as a saint in a big way.

Beshaba was about to open her mouth to refute, but there was a change in the spell that was about to be completed, and the magical power was inexplicably out of control, and it raged and exploded on the surface of Beshaba's mortal body.The purely human pain almost made Beshaba lose her mind. She kept screaming with tears in her eyes, her left eye was instantly torn apart by magic power, and bloody gaps appeared on her skin one after another. The pink and bright subcutaneous tissue is exposed.

Beshaba wailed and gasped, she screamed hoarsely: "Why? Io, what did you do to me?"

Su Lun sneered and said, "Maybe you have forgotten the taboo of the coming of the saints after being high for a long time. If Io hadn't deprived us of our godhead, I'm afraid these fragile mortal bodies would have been blown up by the huge divine power in the first place." .”

Behind him, Shar laughed and said, "What can you be proud of, my poor sister. Even if you clearly remember the taboo of the coming of the saints, you still can't get back the seven that was tricked by that little girl Mystra. It's 'Silver Star', your holy emblem is no longer worthy of its name."

Su Lun snorted and closed her mouth, but Shar hit her sore spot.Several centuries ago, the goddess of the moon needed to descend on the main material plane in the form of a saint for some reason. Before she descended, Su Lun transferred part of her power to her out of fear of the taboo of saints descending. The most trusted ally, the goddess of magic, Mystra, kept it in custody, but when Su Lun returned to Outland, she found that the part of the divine power she had given to Mystra for safekeeping had turned into seven human babies, and their power was greatly reduced In addition to resentment, the moon girl had to take shelter under the wings of the powerful Lady of Fire (the Goddess of Love and Goodness) to avoid the persecution of Shar and other hostile gods.

After a not-so-long silence, the three newly arrived goddesses finally realized that this is not a place for them to have a party.There is a group of old monsters that are comparable to gods hidden in the desolate and lonely wasteland. This is not a rare secret for the gods.

The three saints withdrew their divine power, but the crystal spire they used to entrust their divinity disintegrated silently in the air, the surviving people were still in a coma, and the earth returned to tranquility.The three goddesses looked at everything around them curiously. The collapsed towns, scattered caravans, and mortals who suffered heavy casualties failed to attract their attention.

Although the three heavenly lions were almost paralyzed by the power of the gods, they did not lose their sanity. There are too many powerful beings in their hometown that are not weaker than the gods, including their kings. They are more adaptable to the power of the gods than the main material level. The mortals in front of him are much stronger.As soon as the divine power disappeared, they immediately struggled to call their king's name, in order to open the passage to return to the other world and escape to their hometown. In the words of the Celestial Lion, "a wise lion will never stand at the feet of the Celestial Giant Elephant Dragon." ", the main material plane is too dangerous.

But the actions of the three lions immediately attracted the attention of the three saints. They laughed happily, just like a lonely menopausal lady seeing a cute cat. Shar quickly used her divine power to interrupt the return of the celestial lions. .

"The body of a mortal is too weak, and it will save a lot of energy to ride with these 'cats'."

"There is also a small one here. Strange, this little thing actually has the breath of Tymora on its body, it belongs to me." Ben Shaba soon discovered the comatose cat and cat bug, and the little thing carried a breath of Tymora. The breath of Ms. Fortune is extremely familiar.

Perhaps because she was worried that Ben Shaba would make trouble, Shar had to solemnly remind: "Ms. Calamity, when we formed an alliance, we agreed to find the reptile of Ibrando first. I don't have time to pay attention to it before that." Your conflict with Tymora."

Beshaba said loudly: "Don't forget that I caught Su Lun for you!"

Shar snorted coldly and said, "So what! Don't tell me I'm not comfortable running to Arabel? I'm not that stupid big guy in Tempus, I'm capable of fighting back and forth in it shirtless."

Beshaba fell silent unhappily, hugging the sleepy cat and clawing desperately, the poor little guy was caught with several tufts of messy fluff without knowing it.

Shar looked in the direction of the Great Desert of Enook, squinted at the silent Moon Maiden beside her, and said slightly mockingly: "Su Lun, my sister. It seems that you still haven't learned your lesson. You did it for her last time. I lost seven silver stars, and this time I caught them even more. Next time, I might not even be able to keep my god position. Hohoho——

Su Lun snorted angrily with a sullen face: "Even if I am down and out, it's not your turn to laugh at me. At least I can still pursue what I want. What about you, you don't even dare to speak out your delusions, You are afraid to confront Mystra directly."

Shar made fun of herself, and said angrily: "Every plan of mine will bring me closer to the ultimate goal! Let's go! Let's go to Waterdeep City."
