The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 636 The Ox Ghosts and Snake Gods Under the Burning Flames ([-])

The reason why William was able to gain the unanimous approval of the refugees and successfully ascended to the position of lord was not because of his noble character or lofty popularity, but because of William's ability to kill orcs and Zhentil Castle sergeants like chopping melons and vegetables. General tyrannical strength.

So when William made it clear that the chariots and horses would go against the local traditions and protect that damned bitch, no one dared to directly confront the tyrannical lord. People with such courage and courage have long been dismissed by the people from Zhentil Castle. The colonists were almost wiped out, at least for the time being, William didn't have such a strong figure under his command.

However, there are no direct opponents on the surface, which does not mean that there are no dissatisfied people, and there are not a few such people. Although they dare not directly confront the lord, they have another hidden way of resistance. A lot of vivid names, such as passive grinding, non-violent non-cooperation and so on.

After breakfast, William could clearly feel this unique and unique atmosphere.William originally wanted to arrange for everyone to continue cutting trees and dig ravines to strengthen the defense of the camp, but when he walked around the camp, he found that everyone had become very abnormal.

The woodcutters need to sharpen their axes before they set out, but they don't seem to be sharpening their axes, but sharpen their whetstones with their axes.Ten people dig trenches, lined up at one point, you dig a shovel, get out of the way, I dig another shovel, get out of the way again, and then the next one, it's like a fucking game.

This reminded William of some muddy buddies in his previous life. Sure enough, the happiness between people is interlinked.

The only thing that made William more gratified was that at least the guards he formed were not too hip-stretching. All of them had put on their helmets and stood where they should be with bright weapons in their hands. They did not relax their security work on the camp.

William summoned Baird and the dwarf, Kimmel Durind, and asked, "How are the soldiers?"

Baird and Kimmel Durinde looked at each other, and Baird said: "Your Excellency, the situation is not very good. The morale of the soldiers is very low. I'm afraid they are not very useful."

William sneered and said, "I'm afraid it's not useless, because of what happened in the morning, they are actually unwilling to fight for me!"

Baird was silent, but soon he held his sword and said solemnly: "My lord, no matter what others think. I, Baird Sharp Sword, is willing to be the sharpest sword in your hand and kill all rebels and enemies for you .”

Gilmore Dulinde also said firmly: "My lord, I swear on the reputation of the Dulinde family, I am willing to be the most reliable eye behind you, and to eliminate all hidden arrows and fangs from behind for you."

William sighed secretly, and finally there were two more loyal men, which meant that his previous efforts were not in vain, and he kindly didn't feed the dog.

He nodded in satisfaction, but said kindly, "Baird, what is the origin of your sharp sword name? I've never heard you say it before."

Baird said with a sad face for the first time: "My father once served as a soldier under the former Consul Malik. He was very brave. Although he was born as a commoner, he was valued by the Consul and became an honorable guard. When Malik was assassinated, my father was sent home wounded and derelict, and lost his glory."

"My lord, I got the sharp sword you bestowed on me, and I was appointed as the leader of the guard by you. This is the best opportunity for me to reshape the glory of the family. My family does not have a famous surname, I am willing to take 'Sharp Sword' as my surname, in order to remind me not to forget the kindness of my lord, and to hope that I can truly become the sharpest sharp sword in your hands."

William couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard this, which caused all the dissident soldiers around him to look sideways.He said: "Baird, your loyalty and ambition are worthy of praise. But if you want to become the sharp sword in my hand, you are still far away! Let's go! Today, my lord will take you to open your eyes and let you Let’s see what a true elite in this world looks like.”

Later, William gathers his own family, and the rejuvenated mother and daughter Maya, whose beautiful eyes are almost glued to her lord, and the curious half-elven guardian Cheval Starcloak, along with Baird and the dwarf walked out of the camp together, followed by the dwarf Bonog Steelfoot and his party a little later.

A group of people came to the outside of the city wall of Falls Town and stood at the gap where the city wall was washed away.

Behind them, the edge of the camp was full of onlookers. They talked among themselves, discussing the paranoia and self-will of their new lord. At first, they were scruples about their words, but soon they became bold. She became presumptuous, but there was no trace of respect in the chatting and laughing.

After the town of Dagger Falls has been brewed by the flood, you can smell a faint smell of water from a distance, but when you get closer, the smell of water turns into a strong and choking muddy smell. taste.But what is puzzling is that when this extremely unpleasant smell smells a lot, people will gradually adapt to it and even become intoxicated.

Obviously, this is very abnormal.

What's even more unusual is that a burst of crisp footsteps came from the town slowly and clearly to the ears of William and his party, not to mention the streets full of mud, who can make such a sound like stepping on a bluestone road? The crisp voice, just because someone dares to stay and live in the town at this time, is not a simple matter.

Soon the owner of the footsteps appeared at the gap in the collapsed wall. It turned out to be the guy who turned into Maya. She still wore Maya's appearance, but her clothes were much more gorgeous than Maya's.

William looked at the "Maya" who was wearing a velvet and filigree dress with lace and sky-high pointed crystal boots, and sighed, "You monster is really arrogant. Not only did you not hide from us when you saw us, but instead Swaggeringly ran to the front to die."

Shape-changing Maya smiled and shook her fingers. She glanced at Maya herself, who looked a little frightened, and said to William: "Oh, William, the new lord of Dagger Falls Town, I am very happy to see you on this sunny morning. You. The weather is really nice today. Let me tell you a little secret. I tried to teach you a little lesson last night, but I didn't succeed. I'm curious, how did you save yourself from those stupid lambs? Of this poor vase? Can you tell me, kindly?"

While talking about Shapeshifting, Maya blinked at William, showing a playful smile.

William frowned and asked, "Teach me a lesson? Why?"

Shapeshifting Maya laughed and said, "Lord rookie, you shouldn't prevent those lamb-like mortals from returning home. No house in this town should be left vacant."

William's brows froze, and he asked in a deep voice: "What do you mean? Just because I prevented my people from entering a muddy quagmire, are you going to fight against me, the owner of this land? "

Yixing Maya said with a sarcastic smile: "Your Excellency, you may have misunderstood one thing. You are not the owner of this land. The real owner of Dagger Valley is someone else. I hope you can understand, you just The sheep chosen by the lambs living in this land, not the owner of the flock, let alone the rancher.”

Everyone present heard this, but all of them changed their expressions greatly. Nima, following the new lord to eat melons, who would have thought that they could eat such a huge Thunderbolt melon, especially Baird, who is a local, There is simply a feeling of thunderbolt.

William couldn't help laughing at the moment, and the laughter made Shapeshifting Maya feel a little nervous. She couldn't help asking: "Lord William, is there anything ridiculous about what I said?"

William held back a smile and said, "No, no, this... Pseudo-Maya, there's nothing wrong with what you said. I'm just a little curious. You wanted to teach me a lesson last night. How did you want to teach me?" ?”

Shape-changing Maya said proudly: "You should know the local people's attitude towards shape-changing pretenders. I turned into the little maid beside you. I wanted to sneak into the camp and have a good time. Just relax, and when things happen, your beloved little maid will be torn to shreds by the frenzied lambs. At that time, you will understand that the so-called legitimate lord is just a bright joke."

"It's a pity that you and your people were too cautious, and actually stopped me at the door. But fortunately, when those idiots saw my appearance, my plan was more than half successful. Just let me Unexpectedly, you actually walked out of the camp alive while protecting your little maid."

Whether it was Baird, the dwarf, Shevar Starcloak, or Bonogg the dwarf and his companions, they couldn't help but be horrified by the vicious scheme of the skinchanger standing behind the wall.

Sure enough, "Every skinchanger deserves to die [-] times" is a famous saying left by our ancestors.

William smiled and said: "Pseudo-Maya, thank you for your explanation. As a reward, I will also give you a life-saving message. Run away quickly, and use your fastest speed to stay away from this land! It's coming!"

Shapeshifting Maya thinks that the new lord named William is a fool, or maybe there is something wrong with his brain. After hearing her inside information, most people will either fall into incompetent rage, or be at a loss in panic. How can they say with a smirk? Nonsense, bragging is not the way of bragging.

The deformed monster was thinking of mocking this stupid lord with a problem in his mind, but he didn't want her to look up, but he was stupid.

A huge flame gate was opened out of thin air above the town of Dagger Falls, and then countless flame monsters flew out of it.

The first ones to fly out were swarms of fire mephits, which occupied every commanding height of the town like locusts, using their wings and eyes to bring the vision of the whole town under their control.Then a group of heavy armored dragons flew out. They had wings similar to giant dragons, but they could only be used to glide.

There is nearly a squadron of nearly ten dozen powerful fire dragons. They have a giant-like physique and excellent equipment, and they are veritable meat grinders on the battlefield.These Huolong people did not fall into the town, but came to the edge of the town's wall, opened the warning distance and surrounded the whole town.

I believe that there will not be anyone who will foolishly break into the defense line formed by the fire dragons, whether it is someone who wants to go in or someone who wants to come out, including some monsters.

When the fire dragons completed their line of defense, fire boys began to spew out frantically from the gate of flames, densely packed like throwing shrimp larvae into a pond.

Waterfall Town, which has been soaked by floods, is not the environment that Huotong likes. It is dirty and smelly, wet and full of silt and dead branches and leaves. There is even a relatively rare silt monster, which is a close relative of the ooze monster. .

The fire boys were squeezed by their companions and fell into the mud, then angrily ignited everything around them that could be ignited, and then were squeezed by more companions into countless flames.Many fire boys wanted to escape from Falls Town, but were driven back by the fire dragons wielding large shields and axes. Of course, many of them were brutally beaten into sparks by the fire dragons.

Almost in the blink of an eye, a fire ignited soaring into the sky in Waterfall Town. Many fire boys wanted to ride the flames back to the other end of the gate of flames, but unfortunately, a group of natural enemies of the fire boys——flaming griffins flew from inside. When they came out, they hovered above the flames, and any fire boy who wanted to take the opportunity to escape could not escape their sharp claws.

At this moment, some people or non-humans were stunned by this unbelievable scene of arson.

The monster who turned into Maya couldn't keep her calm anymore, and neither could she, because the deadly flames had begun to spread on her body. It's not like she didn't think about escaping from the town, and she even took action .

It's a pity that the Fire Dragon, who showed his talents in front of their lord for the first time, smashed this stupid shapeshifter back into the town without hesitation.

The fire dragons need a target of allegiance, which is the racial characteristic, or curse, given to them by the supreme leader of ten thousand dragons.

The flames dried up the mud on the street, and killed all the ooze monsters and many small creatures from the water. Even all the buildings on the ground were burned to ashes, and those stone buildings were also burnt red and shining.

I don't know which fire boy found the passage leading to the underground by accident, and then it and its countless companions poured into the more wet and muddy underground.

With the help of the cursefire energy emitted, William's "sight" followed the footsteps of the fire boys into the legendary dungeon.

It is often said that under any prosperous town, there will be an even more prosperous underground city.In the past, William thought it was just a metaphor, used to describe the opposite coexistence of a city's dark side and its bright side.

But today William realized that this was not a metaphor, but a real description of reality.

The underground city of Dagger Falls Town has wider and smoother streets than the above-ground towns. Although it is more humid than the ground, it is not messy, there is no smelly mud, and there are no messy dead branches and leaves. Glowing fluorescent moss hangs from side walls and pillars.

There are many houses with unique styles, decorated with all kinds of luminous gemstones and night pearls, many of which are open for business, and there are almost all kinds of shops, taverns, and workshops, even more than most of the ground. Human cities need to be complete.

Of course, the residents in the dungeon are now in a state of confusion, and they have already sensed that there may be fatal changes outside.
