The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 716 True · Waiting for a Rabbit

As the saying goes: There is no place to find when you break through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.

If Dove had read these two lines, she would have agreed with them with both hands and feet.

After all, Dove was already mentally prepared not to see Elminster for a long time because William was busy building fortresses to save the people and expand power halfway.

Of course, Dove wasn't worried about the old mage's misfortune, because she knew one thing very well, if Elminster really encountered an irresistible crisis, he would definitely use his last card to save his life.

The old mage who appeared in front of Dove was extremely embarrassed, full of stench, dust and dirt all over his face, and the meticulously groomed snow-white hair and beard almost turned dark gray because of too much dirt, messy like Thatch-like boards are knotted into strands.

When he saw Dove, a gleam flashed in the old mage's cloudy eyes, but then disappeared. He turned a blind eye to the partner he was very familiar with, and just fiddled with his fingers, picking off points from time to time. The dirt rubbed and bounced off the forehead of another woman with a dull face.

Dove is very familiar with the old mage. After all, she and her two sisters were raised by the old mage. When she saw his behavior, Dove immediately thought of a possibility. The old mage walked by, wandering around among the crowd of delirious people.

Looking at it this way, Dove really found a few problematic guys, two hags, a witch, and a suspected legendary deformed tiger demon.

The shape-changing tiger demon is a kind of evil beast ghost. This kind of evil cat-like monster has the ability to shed its skin and transform into a human. The original shape of their claws is the backhand like the evil beast ghost (the position of the palm and the back of the hand are reversed) , but they can also become hands that are indistinguishable from humans through the distortion of their bones.

Transformed tiger demons are a kind of cannibal monsters, and they often work together with another kind of human-eating monster Baba Yega. Basically, where there are deformed tiger demons, Baba Yega is also indispensable.

At this point, Dove has already determined that the case of the missing human cubs is inseparable from the monsters hidden here, not to mention that there may be more monsters hidden here that can't be identified by Dove's ability, but it was just picked Dove and the few people around her are powerless to do these things.

Hags are very powerful. Even if they don't use those evil spell-like abilities, they are still very powerful monsters. Even elite fighters (warrior level 10+) who are fully armed, it is difficult to fight against each other without a certain number advantage and skillful coordination. The hag got a good deal in front of the hag.

Witches are good at cursing and using poison, which can be ignored for the time being, but the shape-shifting tiger demon is even more terrifying.

Just like most creatures in nature have their own natural enemies, human beings also had their own natural enemies before the rise of wisdom.

That's right!It is the shape-shifting tiger demon, this cat-like monster has the ability to disguise itself as a human being, and is cunning and cruel by nature.
Extraordinary combat power.

They often transform into a wandering human, and then mix into human tribes, eat one every three to five days, and eat a pair every seven or eight days, and when the population of the tribe drops to a certain level, it will leave secretly, Going on to the next tribe of humans, there's something about being sustainable.

But when the shape-changing tiger demon and Baba Yega mix together, the situation will change again. The shape-shifting tiger demon devours the present (adults) of the human tribe, while Baba Yega will destroy the future of human beings (cubs). Any human group that is entangled by them basically has only one end to be extinct.

However, when the human race gradually became wise and grew into an intelligent race with great potential, the life of the transformed tiger demon and Baba Yega would be difficult.

The reason is simple. Human beings with brains will naturally start to consciously hunt their natural enemies in the opposite direction. After a long period of tug-of-war, the human natural enemies on the main material plane are almost completely wiped out, even if they can survive. What came down was also the kind of alien with a mutated temper.

Individuals such as the original shape-shifting tiger demon can only be found in some ancient and remote planes, or lower planes such as Jiaoyan Hell and Abyss.

Of course, only old goblins like the old mage or Dove who have lived for hundreds or even thousands of years may know the existence of the shape-shifting tiger demon. Ordinary humans have long forgotten their ancient enemies. The fear of big cats is the last echo of human beings to their former natural enemies.

Dove left the patient gathering area quickly with her people, and she found William almost non-stop and explained the situation to him.

William was naturally a little surprised by Elminster's sudden appearance by his side, and also a little inexplicably wary. He never believed that it was a coincidence that the old mage went around and reunited with himself and others.

However, he would not push away what was brought to his lips, not to mention there were a group of harmful things waiting to be removed, so William immediately followed Dove to the old mage's shelter.

According to the general routine of third-rate dramas, Dove should have made a series of twists and turns, disappeared the old mage, and then triggered a series of incidents or conflicts.

However, the reality is not a bloody drama. William and Dove found the old mage again very smoothly. The woman who the old mage took the mud egg bomb!

Dove stepped forward to kick the old mage a little angrily, and shouted: "Old bone! What time is this, you still have the mind to get a woman here!"

The old mage smiled silly at Dove, then moved the kicked butt, and continued to find lice for the dull woman.

Well, the old mage is a fool now, no matter whether he is really stupid or just pretending to be stupid, William can't let him stay here.

William signaled Dove to protect the old mage and the dull woman, but he walked towards the guys whom Dove suspected to be monsters, two ugly old women covered in sores, a skinny blind man The old man, and a strong and dull man.

After seeing the appearance of these four people with peculiar appearances, William immediately understood that Dove was right. Looking at these honors, one person can see that they are definitely not good. How can the person in charge of this place not be able to see it?
William believes that there must be tricks in it.

Of course, let’s talk about whether it’s tricky or not, but William couldn’t let these scourges stay in his own sheepfold to harm others. He came to them and said in a deep voice: “Guys, should you leave obediently by yourself, or should I take it? Knife to drive you away?"

When these four aliens heard the words, two of them deliberately pretended to be stupid and kept silent. The blind old man grinned, revealing his jagged black teeth, while one of the hags smiled ferociously at William and said, "Young and strong!" Young man, I smell the aroma of meat and bones on your body."

Meaty bones?William was taken aback for a moment, never did I have any flesh and bones on my body, and then he reacted, and immediately a burst of anger surged from the bottom of his heart.With a knife in his hand, he sneered and said, "What a vicious monster! My bones are itching, let's see if your rotten teeth can bite?!"

But the hag jumped up suddenly with a sinister laugh, and rushed towards William like a swift big toad.

The hag huddled on the ground, unable to see its size. When it stood up, William and the others realized that the hag was even taller than William, with long hands and feet, a long face and a pointed nose, but she was covered in leather bags. His bones were as if a fat man of three hundred catties suddenly lost weight to a thin man of less than one hundred catties, and his rough black and blue skin was stretched into a grunt.

Its palm was as thin as a chicken's claw, with protruding joints, and its nails were as sharp as the claws of a big cat. It quickly grabbed William's face with just one hand.

The hag was extremely confident in her attack, and she couldn't help showing a cruel smile, as if she had seen this stupid human kid being caught and waiting to die.It has already thought about it, before killing this handsome boy, it must enjoy him well, after all, being a hag also has needs in some aspects.

And the hag's attack was really abrupt, even if William was here, otherwise, even if it was Dove who faced this attack, it would be difficult to avoid the opponent's surprise attack.

Just when the hag felt that she was about to catch the target, there was a flower in front of her eyes, and William's figure suddenly disappeared from her sight. When it was about to find William's whereabouts, William had already arrived beside the hag. With a wave of the saber, the ugly head of the hag was chopped off, but the headless body of the hag struggled and turned a few times before falling to the ground and convulsing.

Seeing the hag's tragic end, the remaining three aliens immediately changed their expressions. The other hag and the strong man immediately jumped up and rushed outside together, but William was faster than them. Two knives resulted in the lives of both of them.

The last blind old man was very honest, but when William turned his back to it, this man suddenly turned into a colorful giant tiger, and silently pounced on the back of William's neck.

William had long been on guard against the blind old man, but he didn't expect the other party's sneak attack to have no warning or movement. There was a chill, and a nameless fear suddenly emerged from the bottom of my heart.

William was very surprised by this, since he came from the world of Faerun, he has experienced many fierce battles, and he has seen all kinds of monsters, even gods, demons, and giant dragons. He has fought face to face, and he has never been afraid One point, he didn't want to be here but met an existence that frightened him, it was extremely rare.

However, despite the inexplicable fear in his heart, William didn't feel any serious mortal threat. He immediately became interested, and he didn't use the autumn water knife to slash and kill the enemy. With a kick towards the sky, it kicked right on the giant tiger's chest, kicking it up into the air, and leaping over William's head.

Then William stood up, only to see that the colorful tiger also reached out its claws to the ground swiftly, then bared its teeth, grinned, its forehead and neck stood on end, assuming an attacking posture.

William let out a long laugh, and also put on a tiger fist posture. Although the two were thousands of miles apart in appearance, they gave people the illusion of being torn apart by the same kind.This is exactly how William practiced his boxing with ecstasy and the power of a tiger, but he came out of the hills like a tiger and looked down on all living beings.

The deformed tiger demon was also stunned for a while. It felt that what it was facing was not some weak human being waiting to be eaten, but another of its own kind, the other deformed tiger demon.

However, the shape-shifting tiger demons are basically solitary creatures, they never walk with their own kind, and even when they face those same kind that stray into their hunting circle by mistake, they are even more ferocious than when dealing with other kinds.

By the way, the reproduction of the transformed tiger demons does not require the opposite sex of the same kind. They also use humans as tools for their own reproduction, but most of the offspring they give birth to are also tiger demons.

So when the deformed tiger demon felt the true meaning of the tiger on William, and regarded him as his own kind, the killing intent all over his body swelled up again, and he immediately pounced fiercely, clawing, biting, and attacking in a row .

However, William's pair of fists resembled the tiger's claws and giant mouth, evolving into a set of equally ferocious tiger attacks.He counterattacked with attack, and he blocked the incomparably fierce attack of the deformed tiger demon, and even violently fought back.

The battle here has already attracted the attention of many people in the gathering area. Countless people gathered from other places to watch this extraordinary battle on the spot.

In the eyes of everyone, although William has a human body, he looks more like a fierce tiger than the deformed tiger demon in the fight. He even used attack for attack, and suppressed the deformed tiger demon with only one hand.

In the end, William even tore the deformed tiger demon's throat with his tiger claw hands, tore up its forehead flower skin, and killed the tiger demon with a heavy hand.

William didn't expect that after he completely killed the deformed tiger demon, he couldn't help the agitation in his chest, raised his head to the sky and let out a long howl like a wolf's howl. A feeling of rebirth.

And the surrounding crowd also let out similar howls. They bowed their heads to William to show their respect for him.

At this moment, there is a king who is angry, and all the people return to their hearts.

It is a blessing for people that the four monsters that harmed mankind were killed.But this does not mean that everything is over, not to mention Baba Yega, who is often accompanied by the deformed tiger demon, and even the great demon Negal who placed Elminster here is not a good friend. It won't be long before he will come here to find the old mage.

But this didn't make William a little afraid. While arranging manpower to continue building the castle, he planned to deal with those uninvited guests.

The old mage has never recovered his normal mind, but this does not mean that he is a useless burden, on the contrary, Elminster is very useful.When the spellcaster gets close to the old mage for a certain distance, the magic net that was disconnected will return to normal, but they can use spells as seriously as before.

This is undoubtedly a great boon for William and others. First of all, William can finally open and close the gate of flames at will, and maintain unimpeded contact with his subordinates in the flame world at any time.Although Dove is not obsessed with spells, as a magic voter, she still has a lot of spells available, which is a big improvement for Dove's combat effectiveness.

William secretly replaced some of his most capable men from the world of flames to Creeping City, including the chief general of the fire djinn and the former elder Turmu. He has already spread his net here and is waiting Let the unlucky ones who have thrown themselves into the trap come to the door.
