The Swordsman of Faerûn

In Hopeless City, Merleaf joins a band of scheming liches and other powerful undead spellcasters on a quest to discover the nature of life, maiming, and creation.

Merriff was once a powerful high loth, but he was defeated in the competition with General Jiao Yan and had to be subordinated to his subordinates.

But the ambitious Merleaf has always been unwilling to be controlled by others. In order to get rid of the hijacking among the yugoloth demons, Merleaf used ancient rituals in the past and finally made himself an immortal lich.

Merleaf has been planning a huge conspiracy to extinguish all the active volcanoes in the scorching hell, and its plan has been successful for a quarter, and the once hot fourth active volcano has become a silent one. Dormant volcano crater.

Today, another super volcano is also undergoing the baptism of acid snow according to (Murriff’s) plan. I believe that in a few hundred years, the super volcano that has been called Ash Snow Mountain will also be like Silent Mountain fell into a dormant state.

By that time, Merriff basically occupies half of Jiao Yan Hell, and it will definitely become the new her, and will be qualified to fight against General Jiao Yan.

Of course, Merriff's ultimate goal is to extinguish all the four super volcanoes, transform the eternally desolate scorching hell into an eternally quiet world of the undead, and create a second kingdom of the underworld.

For Murriff's ultimate fantasy, we can only comment on one thing-the ignorant are fearless.Not to mention the countless powerful beings in every corner of Jiaoyan Hell, including all kinds of well-known or unknown evil gods (such as Menno, the god of evil cloud giants, Manz Korian, the god of illithids, etc.), many powerful yogis Gross demon lords, big devils or demon lords, they either secretly or openly established their own kingdoms in a corner of Jiaoyan Hell.

Including General Jiao Yan and Merriff are just slightly conspicuous existences among these countless strong men.

Hope City is the core castle of Merif, and its city defense facilities are absolutely not inferior to any other city in the world. There are various war machines hidden in the city's buildings, countless undead soldiers sleeping underground, and The powerful guardian magic and attack magic that surrounded the entire city, and of course the Lich Legion that mastered countless evil spells, these were the heaviest chips in Meriff's hands.

But today, this impregnable city has ushered in the most severe test.

Due to the disconnection of the magic net, the war magic surrounding the entire Lonely Hope City basically failed, including the Lich Legion, which the Lich King Merif relied on most, also temporarily became a decoration.

However, Guwang City itself has the advantages of natural dangers and geographical advantages, as well as the endless army of undead, it is still not something that any young people who are peeping at the Lich King can trample on at will.

But that certainly doesn't include William.

When the conch ship commanded by William appeared around the city of Lonely Hope, the owner of Lonely Hope City didn't realize what kind of disaster it was going to face.

William stood on the exposed deck of the conch-hull ship, but invisible air bubbles protected him and the others from the icy high-altitude wind.

He pointed to the secluded city under the conch-hull ship, and asked the Lich, who had only half a spine and a head, "Are you sure this is the base camp of your immediate boss?"

...

The Lich said in a terrified tone with a bit of arrogance: "Human, you don't even know who you are fighting against. Merif, the Lich King, is definitely not a terrifying existence that you mortals can provoke. Let me go, Then surrender to King Merriff, and perhaps you may still have a chance to be treated mercifully."

William laughed twice and said: "Surrender is impossible! But I can let you go down, and I will send a message to your Mohfu, saying that the human lord William is saying hello to it! Come on! go!"

Speaking of which, William threw the lich's head out of the conch ship with a strong throw, and then he clapped his hands and said to the others on the deck: "Okay! We have to find a safe place to hide from the limelight Son, the next movement may be a little big."

Dove asked a little worriedly: "Is it really okay to just let that undead monster go? It knows the situation on our side, so don't worry that it will bring more evil monsters to Crawl City for revenge in the future." ?"

This time, William brought most of the elite figures from the entire human race in Creeping City to the conch shell ship, including the leaders and elders in the gathering area, leading figures, and outstanding young people and teenagers who will take the lead in the future, such as Thief Selena Steele.

Of course, William didn't bring them here to rely on their combat strength or anything. With the strength of this group of people, they can only surpass Dove, but it is difficult for him to take it to heart.William's purpose is to broaden the horizons of these people, help them increase their knowledge, and gather a wave of people's hearts by the way, lest he will not be here in the future, and some wild-minded guys will grow weeds in their heads.

Now, after listening to what Dove said, all of these people's expressions suddenly became ugly, because what Dove said was exactly what they were most worried about.

Human beings are a vulnerable group in Scorching Hell and Creeping City. In this world where demons dance wildly, their life is extremely difficult every day.

In the years when they were struggling to survive, they encountered many cases of retaliation for provoking people who could not be provoked. Every time, human beings would pay a very painful price to calm down the incident. I don't know how many.

And the enemies that William provoked this time are even more terrifying than all the enemies that the human group in Creeping City have encountered in the past. Big man, if it really wants to take revenge on humans, basically the human group in Creeping City will only end in extermination.

Even though everyone was full of panic, William said: "Just now, if that guy can survive today, it will be his fate! Just wait and relax, after today, I want to see if there is another guy who doesn't have long eyes who dares to squirm Xingcheng is looking for trouble for humans!"

What William said is not convincing, even Dove can't imagine how William will deal with the city of death below, is he going to mobilize his army of flames?Dove thinks that is not a good way, but it seems that there is no other way to destroy the country.

William ordered the conch ship to find a mountain that could shelter from the wind to dock, and then he opened the gate of flames as Dove expected. The silver-haired lady said that it is too exciting to be able to use the power of magic at this time. Envious.

...

What came out of the Gate of Flame was not the soldiers of the Flame Legion that Dove thought, but a giant flame beast that she had never seen before, a group of super firebirds as large as a small hill—the Cursed Fire Phoenix.

Nine-headed curse-fire phoenixes came out of the gate of flames one after another. They flapped their huge fire feathers and danced around the conch-hull ship. This was William's premise of maintaining the energy balance of Hellen's body. The maximum number of Cursed Fire Phoenixes that can be summoned.

By the way, the Cursed Fire Phoenix is ​​not a real spell, but a real energy body, so their existence is not affected by the disconnection of the magic net.

Another firework-style skill of the Cursed Fire Phoenix is ​​also not restricted by the magic net.

Cursefire is a primitive force beyond the magic net, and its [nuclear leveling phoenix] technique is not a real spell that requires the help of magic net spells. Its essence is the same as how to ignite a pile of gasoline barrels. ) is already there, William only needs to break their energy balance and it’s over, and there is no need for the power of the magic net to help achieve extraordinary effects.

The only thing William is restricted by the magic net is the use of the link channel to the flame world - the use of the flame gate. Except for the omnipotent spell slot once a day, William now has no means to open the flame gate, including his being the flame lord His natural abilities are not good either.

Nine huge curse-fire phoenixes are dancing in the sky. This is a very eye-catching strange sight. Not only all the humans on the single-shell ship are stunned, but all the living or non-living beings in the Silent Mountains They were also attracted attention, they were very curious, how could there be such a group of tyrannical beings of the flame system popping up in this place.

In fact, only a very rare existence can see through the essence of the cursed fire phoenix. It is not a real flame life, but a group of unique flame energy aggregates.

Among these sharp-eyed characters is Merriff, who is a real expert in the study of life and death, and knows the essential characteristics that all living things should have, but this talent was killed by Merriff. How many innocent lives, the knowledge of original sin that has just been explored is the embodiment of its evil nature.

When a cursed fire phoenix floated slowly towards the city of Guwang, Merriff had already faintly sensed that something was wrong, but he couldn't think of any good way to keep this burning big man out of the city, after all Due to the disconnection of the magic net, many methods that Merriff is good at are temporarily unavailable.

However, Merleaf has secretly awakened many powerful undead warriors. As long as the flaming aggregate falls to the ground, being cut off will be its only ending.As for the aftermath of the high temperature when the concentrated flame energy explodes, sorry, undead creatures are not flesh and blood creatures, and being roasted by fire will not cause any irreparable damage.

Even if some undead creatures are really burned to death by the flames, Murriff doesn't feel bad. As long as there are enough high-quality corpses, he can make as many undead warriors as he wants.

However, at the moment when the cursed phoenix landed, Murriff saw the most beautiful spectacle in the world. It saw the first white light of Genesis, which was as unforgettable as the creation of all things.The blazing light melted everything, whether it was the undead blasphemous warriors who were strong enough to fight against giant dragons, or the skeletal armored warriors who were good at fighting in groups, and even the legendary undead angels who could compete with gods and demons—the rotten pioneers, All turned to fly ash in this charming light.

...

Merleaf was also severely injured because of looking directly at this terrifying light. Although it did not fall into eternal silence, an inexplicable sense of weakness hit Merleaf's heart. It knew that its original strength had been damaged. This is the result of looking directly at the absolute positive energy after all the protective spells of an archlich lose their effectiveness.

After the super white light comparable to the shining of the sun, the unparalleled high temperature melted everything around the explosion point into liquid lava, and then came the devastating shock wave, which almost razed the entire building of Guwang City to the ground. Most of the defensive buildings have lost their effectiveness, and the undead creatures destroyed as a result are countless.

Just one phoenix firework almost turned the entire Guwang City into ruins. The grand and gorgeous scene made anyone who witnessed this truly blinding scene tremble.

The conch ship trembled like fallen leaves in the raging wind, and even though the passengers on board had received William's warning in advance, most of them were covering their painful eyes and crying, including Dove. They basically ignored William's warning and looked directly at the original light.

However, Dove possesses a simplified version of the cursed fire—Silver Fire, which also has the healing effect of the cursed fire, and of course it is only for the owner of the Silver Fire.With the silver fireworks disappearing from the eye sockets, Dove's eyes that had just returned to normal were still shedding uncontrollable tears. She looked at William with tears in her eyes, and asked in amazement: "William, is this your trump card? The taboo spells in the world are even more terrifying, so the rules of the goddess of magic don’t work for you?!”

William released the energy of the curse fire to heal the eyes of the others one by one, but these same tearful people lay on the deck and did not dare to get up. The shock from the soul and the unstable tremor of the conch shell made the They hardly dared to stand up.

William said: "I warned you, don't look at the fireworks directly with your eyes. But if you have obsidian slices, you can cover your eyes to see the ultimate purification of the phoenix."

Obsidian is almost the most common substance and material in Scorch Hell, and the weapons of many people present are even polished with obsidian.But after they listened to William's words, only the little thief Selena Steele, who had the most contact with William, obediently took out her obsidian dagger and covered her face.

Another curse-fire phoenix flew away and landed in Guwang City, which was almost in ruins, and then bloomed brilliant fireworks that sparkled the whole world. This time, all the bright buildings in Guwang City were finally completely flattened, and All the undead on the surface of the entire city also went to the real resting country to report.

This time most of the people on the conch ship had their first experience, and basically they didn't open their eyes to look directly at the fireworks. You, stupid Ms. Dove.

And the little thief who obeyed William's reminder covered her face with an obsidian dagger, and shouted happily: "I saw it! That shining white light is even [-] times brighter than the most dazzling magma. I also saw that the monsters were destroyed, they were like sand paintings erased by someone with a brush, and nothing remained, which is incredible."

This time, the remaining people finally came to their senses. They searched out the obsidian products on their bodies one after another, and then covered their eyes with them. (obsidian), and a little squabbling and confusion ensued.

The older Steele also did not wear obsidian products, she snatched the dagger from the little thief girl's hand, and said to her righteously: "My daughter, you have seen the real brilliance once. . Let mom take a look this time!"

The little thief Selena stomped her feet angrily. This mother is so disrespectful of traditions and rules, she really doesn't want to.

William came to Lonely Hope City to pick trouble, of course not just setting off two big fireworks, he wants to warn all the malicious people in this world with the most tyrannical force, the human beings in Creeping City are the most powerful people in this world. The taboo, those who touch it will be punished even if it is far away.

All of the nine-headed cursed fire phoenixes were dropped by William on the ruins of Guwang City. Not to mention the city, even the entire mountain peak was blown into a deep pit, and the Silent Mountain Range, which had been silent for nearly a thousand years, was also blown into a deep pit. Like a giant beast awakened from sleep, it kept rumbling and roaring.
