The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 44 Magic Scroll?

As the consul of Mirabar, Sunderland Stagrim can be said to be a relatively qualified one, because the consul of Mirabar City does not have much power, and of course he cannot have too much ambition.The decision-making of Mirabar City is made by the Marquis Erastu Larim, and the management is managed by members of the "Yaoshi Council". Although the consul is the leader of Mirabar on the surface, he is actually only in charge of the marquis and the council. Communication between members of the council, planning and consulting on some decisions, and issuing decrees on behalf of the "Yaoshi Council" or the Marquis Erastu.

To put it bluntly, Sunderland is like the liaison and megaphone between the Marquis and the council, the lord's secretary and advisor.Although she is knowledgeable and shrewd enough to support her job, Sunderland doesn't like this position because her temperament is incompatible with the philistines here, but due to family tradition, Sunderland has to accept this job. For this reason, she even gave up her magic research.

Although she was teased by William several times, Sunderland always regarded him as a silly boy from the country, which is why she was deflated repeatedly. ——Women hate women for the simple reason that she wants to have some fun for herself.

Sunderland hated the way it was now, but Ms. Stagrim loved the city.

Old Singers looked at Sunderland who was dressed as a female adventurer in surprise, and said, "Little Sunderland! Why are you dressed like this?" Said: "Tog! This is your so-called adventure assistant? Damn it! Is your brain full of stones? The underground tunnel is not a relaxed pillar stone hall (a unique entertainment facility for dwarves, similar to bowling)! Don't want me to agree to you taking her with you!"

Togg was speechless with his head slumped. This strong dwarf with long black beard almost reaching his knees had the urge to commit suicide.As the commander of the Ax of Mirabar and the senior person in charge of public security in the city of Mirabar, he actually took the consul to take risks in dangerous areas alone. This is an extremely bad dereliction of duty. Tearful.

At this moment, Sunderland returned to her usual calmness and elegance. She half-closed her beautiful bright blue eyes and pointed at Elf and Misha who were playing around and asked, "They can all go, why can't I follow?" Adventure?"

Singers said loudly: "Because you are." The one-eyed dwarf stopped talking. In fact, in the eyes of the dwarves, it is not a big deal for the superior to fight in person. Almost every dwarf leader is a powerful fighter. A battle-hardened warrior.Among the few people, only Togg was qualified to reject the risky move of the female consul in his position. Unfortunately, this poor dwarf had already been persuaded.

At this time, William said: "What we need is a powerful companion! Not... a powerless... dragging down!" His voice became smaller and smaller, because Sunderland looked at him with a meaningful smile. The two little guys, the horn of Cole on Misha's fiery red curly hair made her eyes warm.

Elf was very satisfied with William's remarks, and she proclaimed loudly with a smile on her face: "I am the ranger of the great goddess Melika! The most outstanding moon elf of the Starry Night Tribe!" Of course, "among all the underage elves" this She didn't say the prefix, but it was a very happy thing to be "recognized" by the powerful William.

Misha also excitedly waved her small fists and said, "I am the great Misha! The best!" The little girl was stuck, she scratched her ears under the helmet a little embarrassedly, her big eyes rolled away. Then said, "Mighty William loves Misha the most!"

The brashness of the two little guys made Sunderland lean forward and backward with laughter, and she said to William: "This is what you call a powerful companion? Hahaha!"

A little blushing William said in his heart: Damn it!Do you think I'm willing to take the two of them on an adventure down below where the winter is dark?And it's all to avoid you, an unreasonable bitch!
Of course, this cannot be said clearly, William said: "Let's do this! You can go as long as you prove that you can protect yourself! The premise is that you can't rely on Togg!"

"Really? I just need to prove that I have the ability to protect myself?" Sunderland glanced proudly at Singers, who was nodding repeatedly, and lifted his cloak to reveal his full armor.The delicate silver-white mithril chain mail shirt, and the soft leather trousers that are straight and shiny, set off her stalwart chest and slender thighs very attractively, and William's lower abdomen swelled for a while; Sunderland's calf was stuck A beautifully decorated dagger, a delicate crossbow hanging on a specially made leather belt, engraved with complicated runes, but it is a rare magic weapon, and a delicate small satchel on the belt; Carrying a larger beautiful backpack behind her.Sunderland took out a rapier and a small shield from two small bags, but they were similar to the elf's equipment last time.Next was an exquisite two-foot scepter, a large number of bottles and jars and exquisite leather scrolls, which dazzled everyone.

Elf looked at these things and said in surprise: "Life potion, healing potion, explosive potion, holy water, strong acid, hot glue, antidote, as well as wand, magic scroll, Ms. Sunderland! Did you rob magic items? shop?"

The guilty Sunderland argued with a reluctant smile: "How is it possible? I am the most virtuous female consul in Mirabar! How could I do such an indecent thing! I bought these with money yesterday! Friendship price Hee hee! It’s a friendly price! See what you can use and get more!” At this time, Mr. McGrill, the poor manager of the magic item shop, was leaning on the door of the shop with tears streaming down his face and singing " "Eternal Strange Injustice".

"Then I won't be polite!" Elf, grinning from ear to ear, picked out more than a dozen bottles of potions and put them in her small bag. Two cheeky dwarves secretly stuffed several bottles of potions into their pockets. Here, even Finia took a few bottles of healing potions.The little girl also smiled and took two bottles of bright green life potion, held them in her hands, turned her head and offered them to the only brother who didn't move, and let the old man (soul) who was greatly touched squeeze her tender tender dotingly. Face: "It's really my good girl! I really didn't love her for nothing! Haha!"

Sunderland walked up to William in a swaying manner, and asked with a smile: "Mr. William! Can I participate?" Looking at the crazy nods of everyone else, what else could William say.

When she was about to leave, Sunderland, who had greatly increased her voice, said to William kindly: "Mr. William! Since it's so dangerous down here, I think it's better to keep the two little guys behind!" But after a long time of intimate contact, she began to Her affection for the two innocent little guys has greatly increased, although she has not given up her coveting for Cole's Corner.

But William responded with a haha: "Actually, there is no big deal down here! Nothing can hurt them without me! The main thing is to let the two little guys go down to gain knowledge." William said in his heart: Damn!This kind of trick of "building plank roads in the open, crossing Chen Cang secretly" and adjusting the tiger away from the mountain is the rest of my previous life!You really take me for a country bumpkin!
This time the underground journey can be said to be familiar with the road, and with the addition of a powerful dwarf warrior, everyone moved very fast.This time, Singers didn't push the drag bucket any more. William and he explored the way ahead, with the Consul, Phinya, Elf and Misha in the middle, and Torg Danzo Hammer Raider trailing behind.Sunderland took out her exquisite wand, and the gem on the top of the wand emitted bright and soft light to illuminate the surrounding area, and the area covered by the light was larger than the two little guys' shining props combined.

When approaching the last battlefield, the air was filled with the stench of rotting corpses, which made everyone pale. Misha had already put on the mask specially made by William for her, but the smell was still unbearable, and Sunderland even vomited. His face turned yellow.

Except for some small scavenging monsters, William and the others did not encounter too powerful monsters, which confused several people.In fact, this is indeed a normal phenomenon. Except for some unlucky wanderers, the powerful monsters in the underground world have their own sphere of influence.The vast area in this area is divided and occupied by acid monsters and scavengers, and scavengers only dominate a corner by virtue of group strength. This time, all three are dead, and the remaining monsters are difficult to achieve.

When everyone came to the place where Singers and William first dug, they saw a six-foot-square passage appearing on the stone wall. No wonder there were a large number of kobolds here. The knocking sound was the sound of a kobold digging a tunnel, and six feet was the height of the mysterious acid monster, who didn't seem to like to duck down into the ground.Fortunately, the tall Phinya was able to lower his body and forcefully get through, otherwise William and the others would be in trouble.

Passing through a long slanting downward passage, it is a deep natural cave, with stacked stalagmites opposing up and down, and a corner of the mushroom forest full of shadows.A few people carefully passed through a group of chaotic rocks, and then walked down a stone slope tens of meters high, and came to a cold underground stream. In this strange dark area, no one dared to act recklessly.

William snarled at Finia, and the half-giant put down her giant ax knowingly, picked up a big stone from the side and threw it into the stream, "Bang bang!" There was a loud noise, countless splashes were made, and the big stone fell There were several waves of spray in the vicinity of the area, but some unknown underwater creatures were startled away.

"Where should we go?" William asked the old Singers, who is more experienced in underground exploration or one-eyed dwarves.

"Let's go to the kobold's lair! There should be a mining area!" The old dwarf never forgot his mining work.

"But how to track and find such a place?" Togg asked in embarrassment.At this time, Sunderland, who had recovered from the potion she drank, gracefully took out a delicate leather roll from her pocket. She chanted an unknown spell and spread the roll with both hands. The faint blue flames gradually turned into ashes, and the faint blue flames turned into a semi-circular arch, through which a strange dog-like beast appeared in front of everyone, but it was [Dimensional Monster Summoning].

Several people looked at Sunderland who cast the spell in surprise, and the female consul smoothed her hair gracefully, and said with a proud smile, "Don't look at me like that! It's a magic scroll!"

Elf the elf said heartily: Humph!Go to hell!You are just cheating these guys who don't know magic!But since I have accepted your benefits!I won't tear it apart!Ha ha!Elf is very kind!
