The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 406 Entering the Mechanical Realm by Mistake?
Secret Puppet Amim has many special abilities, such as voice imitation, body movement imitation, invisibility, silent stealth, body deformation, etc., and even Amim has a creepy skinning technique, which is only limited to objective conditions for the time being. It can't be shown, except for Misha'er who doesn't quite understand the meaning of it, everyone else including Miluna said that it's better never to show it.

The reason why everyone said that was because Secret Puppet's reputation in Faerun was not very good.It may be difficult to comment on which race in the world is the most suitable to be an assassin, because there are too many races that are good at assassination, but Secret Puppet (self-discipline type) is definitely the kind of existence that is mentioned more often.

Secret puppets are extremely good at camouflage, and their camouflage skills are comparable to the shapeshifting talent of shapeshifters.Secret Puppet’s unique skinning technique allows them to peel off the skin of humanoid creatures without damaging the skin, and then put it on themselves perfectly (adjust the body shape through [Body Transformation]), Since the alloy used to make the secret puppet body is extremely soft and can automatically adjust the hardness, when they are in a camouflaged state, it is difficult to expose the secret puppet's camouflage just by touching it.

Secret puppets are often used as assassins or spies. It is said that in order to complete tasks, they can even conduct many indescribable communications with certain task targets, and bring those target characters far beyond ordinary sensory enjoyment.Of course, no one is so stupid as to just use secret puppets for some vulgar enjoyment, because generally the cost of making these things is enough to bankrupt a small country's finances, and they are created for a greater effect.

With the secret puppet Amim leading the way, William and the others no longer have to hurry. After all, for Amim, crossing the Standing Stone Plain is as easy as visiting the back garden. It has been on duty here for more than hundreds of years, although Usually Amim, these self-disciplined secret puppets are linked by commands, and patrol with the shell of secret puppets.

Under the guidance of Amim, the William family and the half-elves saw many unknown sides of the Standing Stone Plain, such as some huge damaged cabins. According to the marionette Amim, these cabins were once the The magic shuttle boat of the Great Se Empire period had the ability to travel through the crystal wall of the plane at will when it was intact, but it was a pity that it was destroyed on the mooring platform before it took off, and it failed to play its due role.Or the huge peculiar skeleton is a testimony to the glorious military feats of the Great Empire period, because this is the remnant left after the death of a certain orc god. After the harmful components were removed, it became a famous landscape in the Nether period.

There are also many interesting or sad things, such as the sharp corner of the unfinished floating city, the automatic production line of broken war equipment, the extraction and filling workshop of void magic energy, the golem manufacturing workshop, and the empty Nether book Although there are only a few stone pillars or stone piers left on the surface, and most of them are buried by wind and sand, Amim can still point out the origins of these ruins one by one.

William admired the unique scenery of the Standing Stone Plain all the way, and couldn't help being overwhelmed by the glorious past of the Nether Empire. This is the historical witness of the human race. They can proudly pat their chests and say something to the faces of those humanoid races: Grandpa was rich!Don't be too presumptuous, understand?
The elves and dwarves could only murmur sourly about this: If the ancestors could have given us some strength back then, and stopped fighting or won a few more tough battles, we would have to use the faucet to piss you off!
Along the way, William and the others naturally couldn't walk much. When it was dark, they entered an underground stone room with many grid spaces to live temporarily.This underground stone room was naturally pointed out by the secret puppet Amim. It is said that it used to be the rest room of a maintenance apprentice of a floating fortress. It will not be harassed by those patrols here, and you can also get some instant supplies. .

William and the others are somewhat disapproving of this. After all, no matter how high your magic level in Netheril is, it is impossible to preserve supplies for thousands of years, unless you provide something similar to [Create Food] or [Water Create] 】Spell support, who would like that kind of broken stuff without any taste or texture.William had also eaten the products of [Creating Food] and [Water], and he gave up this convenient food after eating it only once.

That kind of magic bread is very full, but the mouth is full of crumbs, which is as hard to swallow as sawdust; drinking the magic water into the mouth is almost like absorbing moist water vapor with the mouth, and there is no sweet spring to dry it up. The kind of refreshment.

However, the secret puppet Amim came to stand in front of an empty wall, which was the only wall in the underground stone room that was not occupied by a grid the size of a double bed.Amim clicked a few times on certain positions on the wall, and then saw a secret door emerging on the wall, and the secret puppet opened the secret door casually, and then turned back to the group of friends who were not from ear to ear and said: " Everyone, please follow me, we must go to the resting place before those mechanical heads find out."

William and the others curiously followed Secret Puppet Amim into the secret door, and it felt like using the [Asylum] scepter when passing through.However, when they all passed through the secret door, the secret door mysteriously disappeared before everyone's eyes. Then William and the others found that they were standing on a huge gear, which was as big as a small city, but this was just what they wanted. The smallest one I saw, looking around, countless bigger and more gears filled everything here, there is no earth, the gears are the earth, they are interlocking, running slowly and orderly, people can't help feeling a little bit at a glance An inexplicable pressure, that is the sense of oppression of absolute order.

The half-elf covered his head and eyes, and screamed in pain: "This is the Mechanical Realm?! We have entered the Mechanical Realm!" Yasuna and Miluna, who also knew the Mechanical Realm, also looked terrified. Only Feniya and Misha'er were a little ignorant, but the suppression of order in the Machine Realm also made them a little uncomfortable.

Secret Puppet Amim is also somewhat resistant to the environment here, and it stands to reason that it should feel like a fish in water here.

Amim said to William with a dignified look: "Don't worry, William. This is the edge of the Mechanic Realm. His original name was Melausus. It used to be part of the outer plane—Xanadu (the third floor), but later Swallowed and annexed by the Mechanical Realm, it is being digested. What we need to do is to go to the transmission channel from Melausus to Busenus, the second layer of Xanadu. In Busenus, we can find any kind of food you want to eat. food ingredients."
