The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 498

Sanyu said: "This dragon gun is not a creation of this plane, but comes from a foreign plane named Klein, where the dragon knight is the one who dominates everything. The dragon gun is the weapon of the dragon knight. , is also the destination of the giant dragon, because it connects to a kingdom that only has dragons."

Then Sanyu instructed William how to bind the dragon gun to the dragon, and how to turn the dragon gun into a finger-sized dragon whistle and reversed secret words.Through the dragon whistle, the sleeping bound dragon can be sent back to the dragon world for protection. When the dragon knight needs it, the dragon whistle can be blown to summon the dragon to come.Of course, if the dragon wakes up, he can also locate the dragon whistle by himself and return to the dragon knight on his own initiative.

The dragon gun is indeed very useful, and it solved William’s urgent need. He happily accepted the gift, and said obediently after getting a cheap price: "Brother Sanyu! Thank you for your gift, it is really useful to me. By the way, why did you remember to give me a gift? Did you know that I made you famous in the south? In fact, you don’t have to be polite, we are all acquaintances, and mutual help is the right thing to do.”

If the Three Fools could understand the ridicule in William's words, they would probably have to turn their heads and do it on the spot. Fortunately, the sword-winged mantis is not a race that is good at talking skills. The members did not fight William, but told him a very terrible news.

Not long ago, a Sarukh witch left Orem's underground resting place, and he will go to the depths of the Ezehart Mountains to awaken more members of the Salamanders.

The Three Fools suspected that the Sarukh witch was targeting William. After all, William hooked up with the members of Nasir, especially in the past few days, the great arcanists of Nether have been dispatched in groups and spared no effort to help William's family. The behavior of returning made the guards of Baietis (the organization of Sarukh witches) very worried.

After all, it is impossible for the leaders of the Remnants of Nether to help an ordinary person meaninglessly. Each of their special movements has a deep meaning. The Sarukh witches are worried that William will become a battle between the two sides in the main plane. The winning piece.During the last Dawn Calamity, they successfully destroyed a pawn that was about to belong to the Netherese. It was a turmoil among the gods initiated by the Lord of Dawn to establish a light god system, but in the end it failed. It ended and led to the downfall of two great empires and an entire pantheon.

Now, another turmoil among the gods is happening, and the Sarukh witches never want the past to repeat itself in another way.

Sanyu can't guarantee that his guess is correct, but this news is very important to William, because he has already faintly felt a terrible sense of depression from the north, and the reason why it has not completely turned into a deadly sense of crisis, It should be that the awakening action of the Sarukh witch has not yet officially started.

William was a little surprised why Sanyu wanted to help him. Even if the two of them were rivals and cared for each other, it would not be possible for an ancient monster to crawl to such an extent. William would have to drink Erguotou to think that his charm would If it's big enough to hold your head, just worship.

However, he didn't ask why. Now William would no longer underestimate any intelligent creature with a brain. The mantis monster in front of him must have his own calculations, but as long as the result is harmless and beneficial to him, he is also happy to pretend to be confused.

So William waved his hand and just said thank you, then turned and returned to the campsite, while Sanyu looked at his back with a gloomy expression, and turned away after a while.

In the early morning of the next day, under the watchful eyes of his family and friends, William successfully sent Miss Jinlong to the Kingdom of Dragons, a legendary world where there are only dragons. Journey to the Great Desert of Nook.

After entering the Eta Mirror Wasteland, the creatures along the way began to increase. Whether it is drought-tolerant plants or some small animals and insects, they can be seen everywhere on the Eta Mirror Wasteland. A land of prosperity comparable to the Saiyada Grassland.

It is a pity that the geological structure and geographical location of the Eta Mirror Wasteland are not very friendly. This is a typical near-karst landform area, with many hills on the surface, stone forests, and crisscross ridges of stone beams, making transportation extremely difficult and nomadic. , the barren environment cannot afford the tribe-based Bedai barbarians to gain a foothold here.

However, the Mirror Wasteland of Eta borders the Ezehart Mountains (the lair of the Ethiopian Sand Lizards) in the north, and invades the Scimitar Peak Mountains in the south. It is also difficult for intelligent life in villages to survive safely.

However, a group of lunatics determined to rule the world have made amazing achievements in the development of the Eta Mirror Wasteland.The Zhentarim Society, the vicious organization that William had encountered before, spent nearly a hundred years investigating and sorting out the terrain of the Eta Mirror Wasteland, and built a permanent commercial road with decent road conditions - the black road.

William led Mo Xiao, and Mo Xiao carried Misha and Miluna on Mo Xiao's back, and Phinea and Tabari walked in the front and rear. They walked on the rugged and winding stone road, which seemed like a labyrinth. Feel.

You may have walked for a long time, but when you lowered your head, you found yourself back near the starting point, but on a stone beam more than ten meters higher than the starting point, and then walked for a long time, but came to the place just now. In the low-lying ravine next to the place.

Even though William came from the country known as the "infrastructure madman", he couldn't help but admire those who opened up this poor land. It's not that the people of the Zhentarim created such a great spectacle, but No matter what their purpose is to conquer and transform nature, he can't help but feel sympathy for the feeling that man can conquer nature.

After going deep into the mirror wilderness of Eta, William and the others saw the first human building, an ugly house built with stones and hay next to the rock wall. Waiting for people still feel extraordinarily kind.After all, they have been dealing with sandstorms, rocks and weeds for the past few days, and it is rare to see human creations.

When William and the others came to the house, what they saw was not a human being, but a rough-looking dwarf.The dwarf was wearing an old and dirty leather jacket, and he was not very enthusiastic when he saw the visitors. He looked at William's family expressionlessly, and his eyes stayed on the Pegasus Mo Xiao for the longest time.

The dwarf asked lazily, "guest, where are you from?"

William stepped forward and replied, "We are travelers from Waterdeep, and we are about to cross this terrible wasteland. Where is this place?"

The dwarf's eyes flickered for a moment, and then said: "This is the Half-Basin Water Hotel, the first western site of the Mirror of Eta. I am the owner, waiter and chef of the hotel, Jimmy Dulinde, a man from Tesen Valley. Remnants of (Totsen Vale was destroyed by the Zhentarim decades ago)."

At this time, Misha'er, who had jumped off the horse, came forward and asked curiously, "Why is this place called 'Half Basin of Water'?"

The dwarf squinted at Misha'er, muttered, "The nose is not sharp enough, and the hair is not curly," and then replied: "Because the water source here can only store half a basin of water a day, it is called a half basin." Water Hotel."

Misha's eyes widened, and she exclaimed happily: "Hotel? Is there a big and soft bed, sweet fruit drink, and hearty barbecue? That's right! I also need a big bathtub. , I want a shower! William—”

The little guy looked at his brother beggingly.

Before William could speak, the dwarf Kimmel sneered unceremoniously: "Are you dreaming? Ignorant little girl! As I have already said, there is only half a basin of water here a day! Not even enough for people to drink , you still want to take a bath?!"

Misha stuck out her tongue, and asked in surprise, "Isn't this a hotel? Little sir, there should be everything in the hotel!"

William patted the little girl, beckoning her to be quiet, and then asked: "Mr. Kimmel, we have been traveling for several days and want to rest here for the night. Can you provide us with accommodation and water?"

Kimmel said: "You can set up tents in front of my house. For food, I can only sell you a pot of clean water that I just received in the past two days. The food is only taro roots, dried tarantula balls and dried small lizards. , do you want to try it?"

Feniya lowered her head and asked curiously, "Is it delicious?"

Kimmel raised his head and muttered: "You are so tall! A human woman is as tall as the big tree in my hometown." Then he said angrily: "Idiot! It would be nice if you can find food to fill your stomach Yes! Do you still want to eat like a king?"

In a difficult environment, one cannot ask for too much. William knew this very well. He thanked the dwarf for his "generous" guidance, and set up a tent on a small open space in front of the house made by a naughty boy, preparing to camp.

Although the dwarf didn't look very good and didn't speak very politely, but his hands and feet were very diligent. When William and the others set up the tent, he had already brought out all the special food here.

There are taro roots as thick as the beginning of the word, dried tarantula balls with a fluffy appearance, dried small lizard meat, and a basin of slightly turbid clear water.

The whole family stared blankly at these dark dishes with a slightly unique taste, and couldn't help but look at each other. Even Phineya, who didn't care much about the taste of food, didn't want to touch these things, including the basin of clear water.

William smiled dryly, and said to Kimmel: "Sir, please put away all your food, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to enjoy these delicacies."

He pronounced the word "food" very hard.
