The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 638 Fire purifies the soul

The predecessor of every vampire is an outstanding elite. They either possess superb force, or have erudite knowledge, or are extremely clever, or have extraordinary scheming and unparalleled calculations. In short, none of them is a fool.

When the vampires lost their arrogance, their shelved wisdom reoccupied the high ground of the brain, and a vampire took a look into the side hall, which was also full of flames.Sure enough, the lambs that should have been burned to ashes were still alive, and they were also shrouded in bright flames, falling into a peaceful sleep.

This strange scene made a few vampires feel inexplicable chills. There are spells that can make lambs... mortals take a bath in the magma pool safely, but it can make a large group of mortals sink safely in the flames. The miracle of sleep has been repeated in Faerun from ancient to modern times, and there may not be many precedents, at least it cannot be found in the decayed memories of vampires. Perhaps the legend has almost no sense of existence, but last year Karsus, the unexpectedly manifested Lord of Fire in the Cyre region, can do it.

Of course, the vampires certainly couldn't understand it, and even William, the person involved, didn't realize that this seemingly reliable little trick that William came up with on the spur of the moment was such a terrifying creation.

William just regards this technique as an inconspicuous application of the omnipotent spellfire energy, but he doesn't know that the preconditions necessary to achieve this application cannot be replicated by others.

This is the sublimation of the combination of the curse fire messenger and the flame lord, from quantitative change to qualitative change.

William is not the only messenger of the curse fire in this world, not to mention, in a certain tavern in Gaoyue City in the deep forest valley next door, there is a girl who was awakened by William earlier.And flame lords, not to mention everywhere in the flame world, but it is not impossible to gather thirty or fifty or even a company of flame lords by simply swiping.

But in this world, only William is known to be able to combine the power of the cursed fire and the flame lord. It can be said that this ability to keep mortals alive in the flames is William's unique special ability. .

Vampires are not afraid of flames, but it does not mean that they are immune to flame burns. The confidence they can walk freely in flames comes from their strong recovery ability. At maturity they can still be resurrected.

But if they stayed in the sea of ​​fire for a long time, the vampires would be unbearable, not to mention turning into a pool of ashes. The harsh conditions needed for resurrection are only the pain of being burned and their corruption The recovery ability of the body that has been working is constantly depleting the background of the vampires, making them involuntarily develop "blood thirst".

"Thirst for blood" is an instinct that no vampire can abandon. Even the oldest vampires can only temporarily suppress this instinct, but they cannot directly eliminate it.

Under the burning of the flames, these vampires' thirst for blood gradually began to attack, and their sanity gradually collapsed, and here only the flames and the lambs of the past were sleeping, and they had no reason to endure, so several vampires Without hesitation, he pounced on the lambs surrounded by bright flames.

The first one to touch the prey was an elf vampire, and his target was the elf blood slave who was thrown out by him.

Vampires are not cautious undead creatures. Their cunning and austerity only come from their wisdom before being transformed, as well as the accumulation of knowledge and experience after being transformed. This leads to a famous saying in the world of vampires. A transformed beast is always just a beast.

Almost defenseless, the elf vampire scratched through the bright flame film with one claw, and then he regretted it.

The curse fire's ability to kill undead creatures is far beyond the imagination of ordinary ghosts. The vigorous flame instantly filled the whole body of the elf vampire, almost sucking out his corrupt blood in the blink of an eye, and drained the vampire's corrupt blood. The body was burned into a cloud of smoke at the same time, the kind that left no ashes at all.

The elven vampire is dead, completely dead, so dead that his bones turn into ashes, and he dies cleanly without leaving any sequelae.

Cursefire is so domineering when it targets undead creatures.

Not only the elf vampire, but also the other two human vampires did not fare well. The so-called impatient guys died quickly. When they noticed that their companions were really burned to death, their claws had also touched the energy of the curse fire , and then they followed in the footsteps of their companions.

Only the most unpopular dwarf vampire was lucky, maybe because of his short legs, or maybe he had to show a little humility in front of a few of his kind, and then he was lucky.The near-annihilation-level deaths of the three companions made the poor dwarf vampire almost scream, and then he really screamed like a shrew. The invisible lethal ripples spewed out of the dwarf vampire's mouth, and then spread to the entire vampire palace .

[Undead Scream], making a piercing scream, causing certain damage to surrounding non-undead creatures and causing dizziness; awakening all undead creatures within the range of the sound transmission, and forming a certain degree of dominance over low-level undead Effect.

[Scream of the Undead] is not a powerful spell, especially in this vampire palace shrouded in flames, its killing effect has been reduced to almost nothing, what really makes it more commendable is its Undead awakening effect.

As the rulers of the dark side of the town, the vampires store a large number of undead soldiers in their underground palaces.That's right, they stacked the undead soldiers and stored them in the warehouse just like storing goods. Whether it was skeleton soldiers or zombie soldiers, they were densely stacked like cargo bags.

This is one of the foundations for the vampires to rule this land, and it is also the first knife they rely on to suppress all rebels.The terrified dwarf vampires finally remembered that they still had this trick to use.

Infinite skeletons woke up from their long sleep, and countless zombies broke free from the shrouds that entangled them. They were like frenzied house demolishers, slapping desperately at the gate of the snow storage area that restricted their freedom.

There are so many people, so many ants kill elephants. I don’t know how many skeletons and zombies were dismantled into broken bones and rotten flesh by themselves and their companions when they hit the closed opening. Then they broke through the restraints, and they rushed out of the hiding place. , and then was submerged by the sea of ​​flames, and burned into puddles of ashes.

When the dwarf vampire woke up from his panic and finally realized what he had done, he scrapped one of the hole cards he had used to turn the tables.

The dwarf vampire finally didn't dare to stay here to endure the torture of the flames. He needed to escape from this terrible place as soon as possible.At this time of escape, the once clever mind of the dwarf vampire finally played a role. He didn't go to the teleportation area to try his luck, because he knew very well that it was not a wise thing to cast teleportation spells in the sea of ​​flames, let alone the dwarves. Vampires are also not good at teleportation.

So a concealed physical escape route became the only option for dwarven vampires.

However, outside the walls of Dagger Falls Town, people stared dumbfounded at the flames of the town. Some people started to scream, some people clapped their hands and applauded. Many people began to shed inexplicable tears, maybe some people shed tears of joy, But there was no shortage of tears of sadness or hatred.

A small town with only 2000 or [-] people on the surface, but all kinds of shadows behind it are mysterious but messy and unbelievably messy. In fact, all cities with names, surnames and histories in Faerun basically look like this bird, The only difference is that the people in power on the dark side are different.

William didn't want to think about it, and he didn't want to get entangled in the intricate grievances and entanglements of various interests.Not to mention that even the powerful invading dragon from Zhentil Castle—the colonial forces are unwilling to mix with the dark forces in Falls Town, and even want to make peace with them, how big is William’s head to forcefully break it What about the local land snakes? !

Thanks to Levi, the former clerk of Falls Town, it was his advance notice that William knew that the flooded Dagger Falls Town was not an empty city. Its underground or dark side hides another one full of pain and vitality. dark world.

This is also a major impetus for William to bring the refugees back immediately. He can't wait until the impact of the disaster has completely subsided, and after the residents of Falls Town who fled to other directions and the refugees from other places return and live in the town, he can't go there. Deal with the city's dark side.

William is not a politician. He can't play with intrigues. He can't play with those old foxes who have lived for an unknown number of years. The only thing he can rely on is his own strength, his little-known army of flames.

Then, William directly overturned the table and set fire to the house to burn the ghosts, a popular cleaning exercise that is beneficial to the body and mind.

Under the siege of the flames, I don't know how many monsters that are not human have been burned to ashes, let alone how many vicious things have been wiped out. Even William has already prepared for those suffering people who are stranded in the dungeon. The psychological preparation of being burned to death, rather than letting them suffer in the dark hell, perhaps it is also a kind of happiness to be directly purified by the flames.

Fortunately, William had a brainstorm and developed a function of the curse fire. He integrated his consciousness into the curse fire and flames, and linked it with the sea of ​​flames in the entire town. Whether it is above ground or underground, as long as He can sense the place occupied by Lie Yan, he is like the god of thunder Enilo who opened his heart, it's really cool to play with the full picture and play Shao Shao Shao.

Where there is danger, the flame will open the way!Where the situation is unknown, the flame will open the way!When you encounter a place that is unbearable to look at, the flame will open the way!Burn all the way!

When you meet poor people, add a fire shelter, and when you meet undeserving monsters, add a fire shelter. When you encounter places or goods that match you, such as food, treasures, etc., you need to add a fire shelter.

Lord Raging Flame's fire control ability is so arrogant, there is no problem that can't be solved with a fire, if there is, then William's fire control ability is not enough.

At least 90.00% of monsters and evil things were burned to ashes by the flames, but there are always some lucky ones who avoided the inevitable killing, either because of their own strength, or because they have strong resistance to flames, or simply It was luck enough that they escaped from the dungeon, or hid in the vast underground dark area, or climbed to the ground in reverse.

Needless to say, the lucky ones who escaped to the dark underground area, but those survivors who ran to the surface, before they had time to rejoice that they escaped to the sky, they found that they were surrounded by countless people on the ground. Armored dragon warriors, hovering in the sky are groups of flame griffins.

A tiefling pyromancer whose brain is not clear enough just beeped a few times, and was dismantled into parts all over the floor by a few fire dragons with battle axes and hammers. The remaining survivors, monsters or non-monsters, immediately behaved. surrendered their freedom, they voluntarily surrendered to those in charge here.

William didn't have time to pay attention to these fish that had already fallen into the pot. His main consciousness was searching underground for other fish that slipped through the net.

However, William didn't have time to talk to these captives, but it didn't mean that other people didn't have the same thoughts. Baird and Cheval Starcloak recognized the identities of some of the captives almost at a glance.The two of them, as public figures on the bright side of Falls Town, know something about the dark side of the town, especially the half-elf female mage, who knows a lot about the underground world, because the study of magic cannot avoid these things. Deal with monsters.

Of course, Cheval Starcloak also has more irresistible reasons for the dark side world. She rushed to a well-dressed weirdo and asked anxiously, "Larouche! Where is my sister? Where is Irgana?" ?”

LaRouche is a broker in the dungeon. It deals in many things, ranging from various magic items, materials, knowledge, to various livelihood goods, population, slaves, and various commissions, information, and secrets. As long as you have If you can afford the equivalent price, LaRouche can serve you and relieve your worries.

It was known to be a doppelganger, a doppelganger that could legally walk on the surface of the Vale, hated and feared by most of the surface towns who knew it, but couldn't live without it.

This is a fucking world!

When Larouche saw Cheval Starcloak, his uneasy heart suddenly settled down. The half-elf and it are "old friends" who have known each other for many years. The exchanges between the two parties are too numerous to enumerate. Even not so long ago, Cheval had begged for its help.

It's just that Feng Shui turns around now, it seems a bit unfavorable!For being a prisoner, LaRouche didn't feel embarrassed, it was even a little secretly happy.

As long as he has a familiar face as a reference, coupled with his own talents and abilities, as long as he is allowed to meet the person responsible for this great tragedy, Larouche believes that he will definitely be treated more decently.

That's how confident the shapeshifter broker is.

However, Larouche had a headache for Cheval Starcloak's question. It didn't know how to answer the half-elf. Could it be that you told her that your sister was taken away by the vampire lord? , Most of them were burned to ashes by the fire all over the city? !
The doppelganger's gaze wandered around for a few moments, and there were many familiar faces, including the child from the veteran's family, a delayed warrior seedling.

Then LaRouche decided to tell the truth, it knew the good and the bad of many things, and it was doomed when it began to make some inconspicuous choices.

And honesty is a noble quality that all brokers must have in front of their clients.
