The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 717 I think I have to be stupid for a while
Although it is difficult to see the sun in Jiaoyan Hell, it does not mean that there is no difference between day and night. People living here still need to follow the custom of working at dawn and resting at night.

In fact, most creatures in the Jiaoyan Hell basically follow this law of life, because it is not a very wise behavior to travel at night in the Jiaoyan Hell, and those hidden monsters are second, mainly because it is easy to be invisible when driving at night Clear road conditions, followed by a fall event that some magma creatures love to see.

However, there are also a small number of aliens who like to come out at night, always doing some shady activities under the cover of darkness.

For example, a big guy who disguised himself as an inconspicuous building with no door and no house suddenly rose from the ground under the cover of night, and then stretched out six thick spider legs, slowly and silently gathering in the crowd of human beings. Wander around the area.

This is a mimetic spider, a type of mimetic monster. They like to hide themselves into various stones or buildings, and often cooperate with some special monsters.The mimics serve as shelter and camouflage for the goblins, while the goblins provide food for the goblins.

The favorite food of the mimetic spider is the fresh bone of the creature.

And the monster in the world who is best at providing fresh bones to mimic spiders is undoubtedly the legendary night devil——Baba Yega.

Baba Yega, Transforming Tiger Demon, Mimic Spider, the classic iron triangle of ogre monsters.

The pseudomorph spiders carrying Baba Yega wandered around the human gathering area, and there was always a clear and small bell ringing where they walked, and normal people would always feel drowsy when they heard it, but the sleeping People fall into a deeper sleep.

Objectively speaking, a deep and sound sleep is a good thing that can’t be met for human beings. It will greatly restore the mental and physical strength of the sleepers when they wake up, and make them more energetic after waking up. If the number of times is too high, it may even increase a certain spiritual limit (a random item of intelligence/perception/charm gets +1 bonus), and this situation is most obvious in cubs and teenagers who are still growing.

But the bells from the cannibals are a tragedy to those who hear them, dragging them into the deep slumber into the building that the simulacrum has turned into, killing and devouring them.

After circling the human gathering area for a long time, the mimic spider stopped hesitantly, because the other one in the Iron Triangle didn't come out to respond after hearing the bell, serving as their sentry and main force. Thugs, the shape-shifting tiger demon is an indispensable part of the Iron Triangle in the hunting process.

After all, the Mimic spider is too big and not good at precise movements, and Baba Yega has a bad reputation, and it is easy to leave his feet. Once his whereabouts are exposed, it is easy to attract prey to siege desperately.

After waiting for a while, the two monsters finally lost their patience. They swam around the human gathering area again, and the hypnotic bell was louder and more urgent than before.

Although the hunting atmosphere tonight was not very friendly, Baba Yega did not want to give up because he was too greedy.

Baba Yega is cruel, insidious and cunning by nature, and is good at constructing all kinds of conspiracies and traps, but it has an obvious weakness, which is that it cannot bear the temptation from human cubs.

When hunters who know how to hunt Baba Yega realize that there is such a monster hidden in a certain area, they only need a cub as bait to fish out the monster that they know is a trap.

And whenever the Baba Yega hunt alone, they always try to take away all the cubs in an area at one go, but in fact they only need one cub to meet their physiological needs.

Even though Baba Yega had planned in advance to plunder only one cub, when they acted, they couldn't help but break their plan.

Baba Yega also knew that his weakness was fatal, and the best way they could find to circumvent this weakness was to find a transforming tiger demon as a partner.

However, the Baba Yega of the Creeping City rode a mimic spider around the human gathering area twice, almost shattered the soul bell, and did not see the transformed tiger demon come out to respond, so it finally couldn't bear it anymore, Command the mimic spider to open the door, and then see a humanoid monster with two legs, four arms and six limbs crawling out like a spider. Each limb of this monster has two joints, a pair of insect-like compound eyes, and a sharp beak. Snake teeth, from time to time make a low hissing sound.

This is exactly a Baba Yega. Its tongue has the function of detecting pheromones, which can accurately detect the unique smell of human cubs.

However, Baba Yega searched around, but did not find the whereabouts of even a single human cub, but the air was always filled with a unique aura that only cubs possessed, which made Baba Yega feel like seven or eight kittens in his heart. Like scratching, I wish I could turn the entire human settlement upside down to find those delicious little things.

Just when this monster was frantically trying to capture a few adults to torture the cubs, suddenly a shot of [Immortal Flame] suddenly appeared, and landed on Baba Yega's forehead, turning it into a A luminous body as bright as a torch.

Then Dove walked out of the hidden building holding a scepter that was temporarily blessed with [Daylight Art]. About like dusk.

Under the blessing of such double light, both Baba Yega and the Mimic spider appeared in the light without hiding. William walked out from the other side with a knife in hand, saying: "I didn't expect this kind of man-eating monster to exist in the world, but it is I can't keep you!"

Under normal circumstances, Baba Yega possesses many kinds of unique magical skills to save his life, but unfortunately, most of them can't be used now, and the fighting skills it thinks it is good at are basically equivalent to giving away for nothing in front of William.

Not only Baba Yega was beheaded, but also the pseudomorph spider who helped the evil was dismantled into fragments all over the floor by William. William wanted to keep this monster that would turn into a house, but when he found it in the deformed body of the monster, After piles of children's skulls, he suddenly burst into anger, and then the mimic spider died in an unprecedented misery. It was torn to pieces by the furious William.

Of course, the remains of Baba Yega, who was the culprit, did not end well either. It was first chopped into minced meat, and then thrown into the magma pool, where it was completely destroyed.

William has acquired two new treasures. One is the soul bell that Baba Yega used to confuse people. The sound made by this thing has a hypnotic function, and it is easy to fall into a deep sleep.In the hands of Baba Yega, the soul-suppressing bell is a murder weapon, but if it is used in a different way, it can become a good thing to help others.

As for the other treasure, it is the skin of the deformed tiger demon. This natural treasure containing magical power is the essence of the deformed tiger demon. If a normal human being wears this deformed tiger demon's skin, it can Gain the ability to transform into a tiger in some way.

Such people are called "pipiers".

It is said that the origin of today's lycanthropy has a special relationship with the Pipimen.

The tiger skin of the deformed tiger demon did not attract too much attention to William, and he was now waiting for more monsters to come and die.

And the first one who came to the door was the great devil Negal, who was also a ruthless person. He and a few of his followers ran to the depths of the still not very stable Silent Mountains, and had a good time with the enemies who were chasing him. After doing a battle, he basically buried all the people under him on the spot, and then he escaped by feigning death, thus getting rid of the entanglement of those greedy hunters.

Afterwards, this ambitious big devil secretly returned to Creeping City non-stop, wanting to find the old mage Elminster again, but it is a pity that there are not only silly old mages waiting for Negal, but also a group of people from the flames. The fierce men of the world are sharpening their knives.

Originally Negal wanted to resist, but William almost chopped the big devil's heart with just one knife, and then a group of fire elves and fire giants from the world of flames came forward and beat him to death. Negal can barely take care of herself.

Of course, what made Negal feel the most frightening was that he felt the mark of resentment from the hell boss on William. This is the breath that only the devil can feel. I really wonder how a mere human can offend the master of hell.

The fact that Negal fell into the sand in the creeping city cannot be hidden from those ambitious beings.Soon more powerful monsters came to the creeping city one after another, and they ran rampant in the crawling city relying on their large numbers of people, and then some fools who ran to the human gathering area to make trouble soon became William's ghosts.

This includes several yugoloth demon lords, an anonymous evil god, several big devils and demon lords.After killing seven or eight powerful opponents one after another, William was also a little bored. He directly summoned several curse-fire phoenixes and let them fly and hover over the crawling city, which greatly shocked those who were ready to fight. The idiot who jumped out to pick up the leak.

Although William's practice of repeatedly killing powerful enemies is quite good, but it can't hold back too much noise. In fact, the merits of every powerful enemy William has killed are basically placed on the forehead of General Jiao Yan, but let General Jiao Yan, who had been hiding like an ostrich, couldn't take it anymore.

During William's massacre, the old mage had been in a seemingly stupid state. Although Dove tried many ways to wake him up, he still couldn't bring Elminster back to normal.

William didn't care much about this, because he knew very well that you can never wake up a person who pretends to be asleep.But if it was time for them to leave, William would have some means to make the old mage obediently become normal. After all, as far as the technique of pretending to be stupid was concerned, William would not give in too much.

Of course, before leaving, William had to prepare enough food for everyone, especially if he was really going to the Star Realm, logistics supplies would become a very difficult task.

It is not easy to do logistics in Jiaoyan Hell. After some consideration, William decided to go to the depths of the magma sea to hunt Fireland Dragon.

Fire dragons are not easy to catch. They like to gather together in the magma. They usually gather in groups of three to ten, looking for food and playing.

William took Elminster to the surface of the magma sea on a more severely damaged conch shell ship. He first opened the gate of flames and attracted a large number of flame creatures to go deep into the magma pool to find the whereabouts of the fire dragon.
As the saying goes, more people are more powerful, and the Flame Legion creatures fighting in a team quickly found the whereabouts of the fire dragon, and then they worked together to kill these fat prey and bring them to William.

While the crowd was happily packing up the spoils, for some reason, the old mage was accidentally abducted from the conch shell ship and fell down.

Below is the magma that is ten thousand zhang deep, if the old mage falls down, he will definitely be burned into dust and smoke all over the place.William had a chance to rescue Elminster, but he didn't.Instead, let the old mage find a way to save himself.

The old mage fell in the air for a while, but found that no one came to rescue him.At this moment, Elminster no longer had the intention to play dumb, and he immediately used a series of spells on himself: [Levitation] [Aerial Walk] [Fly] [Precise Teleportation] and so on.

Soon the old mage got out of the predicament, and he returned to William with a wry smile on his face.

William asked with a smile, "Your Excellency Elminster, have you become smarter?"

But the old mage said: "Your Excellency William, you are too impatient. I just barely carried the original power of the Goddess of Magic, and it still needs a lot of time to adapt and adjust, otherwise it would be difficult for me to use them to locate the star realm." somewhere."

William said: "Adaptation is adaptation. What is the meaning of this old man pretending to be stupid? Could it be that the sober state can't be adjusted?"

Elminster said: "Once I wake up, I will be entangled in many things. I am afraid it will be difficult to have the energy to quell the riots (of the magic net) deeply. And this is a very hard job. Even if I It’s also hard to stay awake and focus on what’s going on in the outside world.”

William sneered, "So you still want to play dumb? Stop dreaming, old man! Phinea is still waiting for us to rescue her."

Elminster said: "I am very familiar with the behavior of the aliens in the spirit world, William. Please believe in my strength, as long as there is no interference, I will soon find the place you want to go. But before that, I really have to cultivate for a while, um, it’s really interesting to play dumb.”

Elminster was too loud in the wizarding world.When he reveals the truth, it will always cause unnecessary associations for interested people.

The time for the hunt always flies by, and William and the old fool-turned-mage return to Creeping City in a fully loaded conch.When they returned, the people who were looking forward to it couldn't help cheering.

Then, after getting Wei Lian's permission, they began to divide the harvested fire dragons.After the red and white Huodilong meat pieces are cut, they are put on the oven for grilling immediately.The oven here does not use electricity, but directly uses the heat energy conducted in the ground veins to work.

Some impatient people cut small pieces of Huodilong meat and stuffed them directly into their mouths.

The old mage still looked sluggish, seeing Dove still just smirked, which made the silver-haired lady quite dissatisfied with William taking the old mage out for an adventure, but William wondered if this woman was also playing a fool, After all, she is far more familiar with the old mage than anyone else.
