The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 849 Flocking Adventurers ([-])
Thanks to the generosity of the owner, William, six adventurers had to fully change their equipment before entering the ruins to explore.

With their sharp weapons and excellent protection, Yakir Brenas and the others killed those ferocious and cunning monsters.

Corrupted gnolls with rough skin and thick flesh can't stop the sharpness of fire, copper and steel weapons, and creep monsters covered in vines and tentacles can't withstand the cutting of high-frequency oscillating blades. They can only be cut in pieces like scarecrows in the field. The only ones that pose any threat to the big guys are the myconids covered in spores.

But the halfling thief Gina Hardingdale ingeniously ignited all the mushroommen with a phlogiston-filled crossbow bolt. The mushroommen are notoriously afraid of fire, and the hot molten bolt made of molten iron is exactly The best nemesis of these monsters.

Only a machine crossbow made of fire copper and steel can allow halflings to normally launch hot melting arrows that flesh and blood can hardly touch.

When the last monster was killed by the barbarians and dwarf warriors together, the five adventurers gasped for breath to relieve the fatigue caused by the fierce fighting, while cautiously came to the priest's side, and together they faced the The leader of the monsters where the old gods are.

Madam Bai Ruizhi looked at the six adventurers with a malicious smile. She didn't care about the death of her servants, but she said in a seductive and profane voice: "The ridiculous hyena (many people and monsters treat the adventurers Your disparaging name)! You have failed the generosity of the Tesco Manor! Now, use your cheap flesh and small souls to pay off the debt you owe!
Praise be to the gazing Lord Gargauth!Come out!Hounds from Hell! "

After Madam Bai Ruizhi's words fell, the six adventurers could not help but shudder, and their expressions changed drastically.

Yakir Brinas couldn't help but cast a [Monster Identification Spell] on her, but the feedback of the spell failed.He whispered anxiously: "Retreat! This is not a demon we can deal with! Taras! Set up an obstacle barrier! Gina! Set up a blocking trap! I will cover the enemy's sight!"

Yakir Brinas used the spell [Change Terrain] to raise a stone wall as tall as a person between them and Mrs. Bai Ruizhi, and then everyone came to the exit of the hall of the manor. The halfling Gina moved some Things like caltrops and mousetrap were scattered where they walked.

When the half-elf priest Taras Byrna came outside the hall, he inserted the hollowed-out scepter into the broken floor with some pain, and then he blessed the hollowed-out scepter with an anti-evil circle .

Taras yelled to everyone with a bitter face: "Go! My spell has expanded the protection range, and it can only last for a moment (about 6 minutes) at most!" Of course, the half-elf priest was not happy, because he was about to lose himself. But the precious hollowed-out scepter that has not yet been warmed up.

There were also many monsters in the yard outside the hall, and more monsters laughed and screamed cruelly from inside the hall, which came from the hounds in purgatory—the hama demon, also called the spiked demon.

Here I want to talk about the difference between the hound hama from purgatory and the real hellhound.

Both are also devils from purgatory, but hellhounds (especially three-headed hellhounds) are jailers and guardians that only high-level devils can raise and control.

Although they have stronger tracking and hunting abilities, and their amazing tracking and hunting abilities even surpassed the barrier of death, they are not the hounds from purgatory that those who have studied or even cooperated with devils think.

Because it is difficult for ordinary people to borrow the power of hell dogs.

But the hama demon is different. Although these spiky devils do not look like hounds, they can do many things that hounds should do, including tracking, guarding, hunting and so on.

For example, hama devils can perform vigilance and surveillance tasks under the strict and evil orders of their employers, and they can also bravely engage in fierce close-to-hand combat. Hama devils love the warm blood flowing between their spikes. sense; even they gather for their employer, like hounds, whatever riches and treasures they can find.

The monsters in the manor yard are actually a group of rotten wights, evil monsters that look like zombie mummies, but they are actually living flesh and blood constructs.

The dwarf, the barbarian, and another human warrior swung their weapons and shields, knocking down the rotting wights that blocked the way, and opened a passage for the three rear companions to escape.

When the six of them were about to rush out of the manor, the barbarian Reinsa suddenly felt a palpitation. He suddenly turned around, only to see a female lion with a dark body like forging slowly pacing. The pupil stared at the barbarian, full of cruel intent.

Reinsa, who was out of control, fell to the ground with a battle ax and a lion's teeth, and couldn't help screaming: "No! This is not true! Great Black Lion! Are you here to punish me?!"

The experienced priests and rangers immediately set their sights on the barbarian, and then they looked around, and immediately found the culprit behind the assassination of the barbarian, another terrible devil, the ugly and dangerous Stitch Demon.

Stitches are a construct that only old hags know how to make.

Old hags like to walk through the battlefields where devils fight (especially bloody battlefields), and pick and collect the remains and limbs of those dead devils, and then sew them together with the silk thread spun by mixing the hair of human girls and evil souls. , and finally revive these sutures through profane and evil dark rituals, and what is born in this way is the suture demon.

Stitch Demons are born killers and tacticians. They will choose the strongest-looking enemy on the battlefield and cast the spell-like [Phantom Killer] on them.

[Phantom Killer] creates a phantom phantom, whose shape is condensed from the fear in the target's subconscious and means that the consciousness can visualize something: the most terrifying monster.

Only the target of the spell can see the phantom killer, and the caster sees only a vague shape.

The target of the spell needs to recognize and be convinced that the phantom is not real.If the target of the spell believes the phantom is real, the phantom attacks the target of the spell, and if the target is frightened, he or she (it) is terrified to death.

Of course, this spell also has a negative backlash effect on the user.

If the spell target of [Phantom Killer] successfully breaks the spell (based on the reality of the phantom), and has [telepathy] ability or wears [telepathic helmet], he can command the monster to attack the caster instead.And the caster must pass the test of disbelief in its authenticity, or be the target of a terrifying attack of terror.

Apparently, the barbarian Reinsa was hit by the Stitch Demon's [Phantom Killer].

This is the negative effect brought by the link of the magic net. Not only the adventurers have a hole card to save their lives, but the monsters have also become more dangerous and deadly.

Priest Taras quickly blessed the barbarian with the protective divine spell [Iron Will], and its regular spell version is called [Mechanized Mind].The effect of this spell prevented the barbarian from being frightened to death after all, but Reinsa also lost his fighting power because of it. He even needed the help of two strong companions to escape from the battlefield.

And Yakir Brynas used the motivating spell [Heroic Roar], which is a variant spell of [Heroic Art]. Any partner who hears the roar will get a blessing similar to [Heroic Art], but this blessing The time is very short, only three breaths.

Pay attention to the duration of this spell, it varies from person to person, if your three breaths are completed in three seconds, it will only last for three seconds.If you only breathe once in 1 minute, then the spell effect can last for 3 minutes.

So when they heard Yakir's roar, most of the companions held their breath, except for the barbarian who temporarily lost his self-control, he was stunned by the phantom.

After the Stitch Demon plotted against the barbarians, it directly cast the [Advanced Teleportation Technique], which most devils are naturally proficient in, and instantly appeared behind Taras Byrna, waving its huge claws from the Tyrant Demon To the pastor's heart.

Accompanied by the ear-piercing sound of metal rubbing, Taras screamed and was swept away, but the Stitch Demon, who was the attacker, was also a little puzzled.It should be known that the claws of this demon contains extremely powerful power of purgatory (it can be regarded as a +2 purgatory weapon). It should have easily broken through the plate armor protection of the priest, but the final result showed that the devil's attack was not received. expected effect.

A small figure suddenly sprang out from Yakir's side, and instantly came to the Stitch Demon's head, only to hear a hurried "meow", but the Stitch Demon didn't care about continuing to attack other people, and hurriedly drove away Looking at the uninvited guest on the forehead.

It was the Ranger's animal companion, the tabby cat, who launched a harassing attack on the devil.

The half-elf ranger Yakir Brenas took the opportunity to cast the most powerful and last spell he could master on the devil [Exile].

The aura of magic made the devil's figure start to change from virtual to real, which meant that the spell was taking effect, but the devil was resisting the spell.

The crowd didn't care about waiting for the result of the spell. They dragged the sluggish barbarian and the wounded priest, and fled the manor occupied by the devil in a haste.

And at this time, the devils in the hall of the manor broke through the [anti-evil magic circle] set up by the priest, and poured out from the entrance of the hall.

Those hama demons from hell screamed cruelly across the courtyard, chasing the adventurers who had just ran out of the manor.

It's just that when these devils rushed out of the manor, they immediately felt the malice from the main material world.An aura that makes the devil's heart palpitate, it is the aura that can only be produced by mortals who have killed the big devil or the devil's grand duke.

The demons stopped their pursuit, they looked around anxiously, and then saw a human man in light armor and a group of soldiers in heavy armor.

The soldiers rushed to the demons with almost unbelievable quick steps, and smashed them into a puddle of mud with heavy flails and war hammers.

The fighting power displayed by the heavily armored monks is always so amazing.

Devils are all smart and cunning, except Stitcher.

This monster created by old hags is cunning but not smart enough. It always relies too much on visual effects to judge enemies on the battlefield, and never thinks deeply. Those who like to pretend to be pigs and eat tigers are the most dangerous of.

The failure of the Stitcher's first attack, and the damage done to it by the ranger's spells, drove this murderous and bloodthirsty devil into a bloodthirsty frenzy.

It didn't even cast [Phantom Killer], but activated the advanced teleportation technique again, and appeared behind William in an instant.It's just that the first sight that the devil caught his eyes after the teleportation was over was a fist that was being enlarged, and then its head exploded.

William's timely appearance made the six adventurers feel lucky and deeply grateful for the rest of their lives.Without William's support, at least half of the six adventurers would die, and the entire army might even be wiped out.

After the six adventurers returned to the camp, they solemnly expressed their gratitude to William, and William also affirmed their adventure achievements—at least they found out that there was a devil hiding in the ruins.

Next, Yakir Brinas and others treated the wounded, repaired the uninjured, and replenished equipment and adventure props. This is an essential job for any qualified adventurer.

To the great relief of the six adventurers, William did not have any complaints about the lack of their equipment, but instead replenished the missing parts for them and replaced the damaged equipment.

Among the six, Taras Byrna was the most seriously injured. Not only did the stitcher's attack tear his armor, but the impact caused by the attack broke many bones of the half-elf, including his spine. bone.

What's more deadly is that although the devil's attack only created a few seemingly innocuous scratches on the priest's back, the power of hell attached to these wounds has been tormenting him (equivalent to suffering from attribute damage). Absorb damage), unless someone can use [Advanced Restoration] to heal Taras, it will be difficult for this priest to continue his adventurous life.

Yakir and others were quite unwilling to suffer the failure of this trip to the ruins. They believed that if they could make preparations (material and psychological) in advance, they should have won this battle, at least not deserved such a fiasco.

Seeing that Taras had temporarily lost its combat effectiveness, and their team was missing many necessary personnel, Yakir and others began to shake people.

Thanks to the re-launch of the magic net, several people can contact the friends they want to notify without having to go to a real person to meet them.

There are many ways for adventurers to communicate over long distances, such as knowing the [advanced item transmission] of a specific communication location, such as synchronizing the information docking of magic twin props (crystal ball, mirror, or book page).
