The Swordsman of Faerûn

There was some doubt in William's heart, but he didn't take it as a source of uneasiness.

Of course, this does not mean that William underestimates monsters. In fact, after experiencing countless adventures, William knows that the wisdom of any monster must not be underestimated. There are countless evil places hidden in the Ruins of Sri Lanka.

William's self-confidence stems from his strength, his hole cards, and his backhand.

The monsters are too strong, and William believes that he can beat any monster he thinks he can beat; there are too many monsters, and William has many men, and they are always on call.

The monsters have devised a vicious trap, preparing adventurers for an inescapable Jedi?Sorry, the Flame Gate can allow William and his partners to switch scenes at any time.

Of course, it would be another story if they met opponents who played [Space Anchor], but William felt that they would not be so unlucky this time.

The various mechanisms and traps brought great joy to the children. Under William's reminder, they played the game of finding faults endlessly.

For example, when William said: "Be careful where you step, the ground here may hide danger."

Misha'er would jolt to the front, beating around with a short stick, and with the sound of the floor cracking, a hidden pit would be exposed in a short while.

Sometimes William said: "The air here is full of filth, I'm afraid it will be bad for us." Then the accompanying mage and pastor Anadol Talladim would bless everyone with an [Isolation Bubble], and then Everyone can pass through the area full of poisonous gas unharmed.

([Isolation Bubble]——a variant spell of underwater breathing, which creates a force field filled with adaptive air to cover the subject, allowing the subject to breathe in a vacuum or a highly toxic environment as in a normal environment. )
Similar situations happened again and again, so that everyone (mainly the influence on Anadol) was full of blind confidence in William's judgment.

Finally, they broke through all the traps, walked out of a sea of ​​flames, and came to a large hall.

Those who welcomed William and his party were hobgoblin warriors lined up neatly, panting tauren, funny-looking but ferocious owl bears, and some kobolds like upright lizards.

If it was an ordinary team of adventurers, facing such a group of monsters guarding the house, they would definitely be scared to tears; even if they were replaced by an experienced team, they would still feel uneasy and numb in their hands and feet.

However, none of the brave girls in William's family flinched or frightened.As for Anadol, he is not from William's family in the first place, even if this guy peed his pants because of being scared, it would not damage the reputation of William's family.

【Intimidation】!The first volume of the Beholder Kagal tactical manual, with the help of the soldiers' ferocious image and position allocation, and with the aid of illusion, dealt a heavy psychological blow to the invaders.

Of course, this kind of psychological tactics cannot directly destroy the enemy, and its main targets are not ordinary intruders, but those servants controlled by the mind ray of Kargal's beholder mother.

This trick will make those under control instantly enter a state of panic, thus breaking away from the mind control of the beholder mother, which weakens the strength of Kagal's beholder mother, and makes those controlled slaves rebel or even turn against each other.

These monsters who had regained their freedom of mind were filled with hatred for the original beholder, and some of them chose to leave or embark on the road of revenge alone.

The saying that the enemy of the enemy is a friend is still more useful at certain times, so some smarter monsters choose to cooperate with Kagal.

To be precise, a large part of Kagal's subordinates and subordinates have defected from its beholder mother.

Through [Intimidation], Kagal and his subordinates can immediately determine whether the visiting intruder has anything to do with its vicious mother.

Of course, the reaction of William's family denied a certain answer, which made Kagal and the monsters breathe a long sigh of relief.

There is no way, the pressure brought by Kagal's beholder mother is too great.

Now that the worries were relieved, the mood of the monsters immediately became lighter, and they no longer maintained the hideous and mysterious position, but surrounded William's family in a chaotic manner according to their respective natures. .

The monsters still welcome the visit of adventurers who are not subordinates of the beholder, because it can help them relieve their boredom and pass the boring and dull days.

A owl bear couldn't bear it at first, and it rushed towards the adventurer alone, abandoning its teammates who didn't talk about martial arts.

Owl bears are more interesting creatures. They have the body and limbs of a bear, the head of an owl and the coat of upper limbs like wings.

Most people think of the owlbear as an extremely ferocious and raging beast, a predator.

Because owlbears always show fierce and aggressive bad tempers, they always attack things that appear at random or move without warning for no reason, and even young owlbears can never be tamed, they will Crazy attack on the tamer.

But few people know that when the owl bear's ability reaches a certain level (hit dice 6+ and above), their intelligence will have a certain chance to make a breakthrough (intelligence 10+), and at this time the owl bear will Gain the ability to transform into a humanoid.

The owl bear looks like a very strong human being, with extremely developed muscles and sharp eyes. Their faces and backs have feather-like web patterns, and they can also speak like humans—— If they have learned it.

In fact, people's misunderstanding of the owl bear comes from two aspects, one is human greed, and the other is the owl bear's own factors. Of course, the former is the main reason.

Owlbears are generally monogamous as a family unit, and then several families work together to form small tribes. Each owlbear couple usually raises four or five cubs until they all grow into independent individuals.

Owlbear cubs are so valuable in the human world that many adventurers try to steal them for reward.

And once the owl bear finds the thief who has stolen the cub, it will basically tear it into pieces of meat all over the ground in an extremely cruel way, especially those owl bears who have lost their cubs will attack desperately. Any adventurers near their home.

Even if some adventurers just entered by mistake, the owl bears would try their best to intimidate each other in the scariest way possible, which led to the survivors' prejudice and rumors about them.

In fact, when Owl Bear really wants to kill someone, unless she or he teleports away in advance, it is generally difficult to survive.

The owlbear that attacked William and the others was almost a head taller than Phinea (more than eight feet). It had a bloated body and was covered with dark black hard feathers and light brown soft down. A dull ivory beak, and claws like meat cleavers.

This owl bear did not choose the three children who looked weaker (and indeed weaker) as the target of attack. Of course, it did not choose William, who was really the strongest, but chose Fei, who was the tallest and looked the strongest. Niya chose her prey.

It can only be said that sometimes judging people by their appearance is also a kind of happiness, of course, the premise is that your purpose must be correct.

And Xiaoxiong undoubtedly made the most correct choice.

The bone-removing claws scraped against the shield surface of the keel shield, making an extremely ear-piercing sound, like a steel needle passing through glass, making one extremely uncomfortable, and clusters of crushed bone stubble also scattered down.

The owl bear seemed to enjoy this unbearable noise for ordinary people very much. It kept scraping the keel shield held by Phinya, and it seemed that the harsher the sound, the more vigorously it attacked .

However, Phineya couldn't stand this terrible noise, she felt like a cat's paw scratching her heart, and goosebumps came out all over her body, but this made her somewhat untenable in the confrontation with the owl bear , can only retreat slightly.

Of course, Feniya is only temporarily at a disadvantage. The heavy armor and powerful strength make her error-tolerant on the battlefield extremely high, but the attack of the owl bear makes it difficult for Feniya to make real mistakes in offense and defense, even if it is With an annoying noise disturbance, she is at best a slight disadvantage.

Phineya stomped the ground with her right foot, stepped forward with her left step, and lunged forward with a vertical shield, a sudden counterattack between square inches.However, Xiaoxiong, who was caught off guard, couldn't help but took three steps backwards, and then fell to the ground, staring blankly at his paws in a daze.

What shocked Xiaoxiong was not Feniya's wonderful counterattack method, it couldn't understand the reason behind it at all, what shocked Xiaoxiong was its own claws, which were originally as sharp as a pick knife, and as ferocious as a ghost However, most of the claws are missing, and the former sharp blades have been ground into blunt boards.

It turned out that the owl bear's claws rubbed against the keel shield. The keel shield was made of the hardest skull on the dragon's body. Its hardness is second only to fine gold, the strongest metal in the world. The surface of the keel is not smooth, but has many fine protrusions like scales.

While this makes the surface of the keel shield full of grain and friction, it will also slightly damage the opponent's weapon when it collides with the enemy's weapon, just like a grinding stone.

Apparently, the owlbear's claws were not strong enough and tough enough, and there were too many sharp edges filed off by the keel shield, so that the owlbear lost its composure.

Suddenly, the owl bear roared, making an owl-like "cuck—" cry, and then rushed towards Feniya crazily, its huge eagle beak quickly gouged toward Feniya's face.

However, Feniya is also not used to the other party, her battle ax has been hung on her waist and she has not used it all the way. To describe Feniya's state of mind at the moment, it is "I'm so hungry for the big axe! "

She picked up Thunder Frost and slashed her head.

But all owls have a special ability, that is, their heads can rotate 360 ​​degrees, and stretch like electricity, and owl bears, which have some characteristics of owls, also have similar abilities.

As a pure Beast fighter, Owlbear's fighting instinct is much faster than their brain's thinking speed, so even though Phinya's sudden slash caught Owlbear a little off guard, Owlbear still instinctively to react.

It retracted the gouged-out head at an unbelievable speed, avoiding the end of being craniotomized.However, the owl bear didn't suffer a bit of damage, the fine gold ax blade cut open the owl bear's hard beak, changing its mouth from two to four.

Immediately afterwards, the icy frost froze the owl bear's brain, causing it to fall into an inexplicable stagnation, and then the crackling thunder and electric shock completely stunned the owl bear, and the air was filled with the smell of burnt protein feathers.

Although Xiaoxiong has fallen, there are still newcomers behind Xiaoxiong.

The irascible tauren Aban was the second warrior to rush forward.

Although this guy with a cow's head and a human body is not very smart, but he is loyal and aggressive by nature, he is Kagal's most reliable subordinate (provided you can conquer it), and Owlbear's most trustworthy comrades.

Aban was wearing scale armor made of steel and leather, and he was holding a tomahawk in his hand, but what it used to attack Phineya was his forehead, or the pair of horns on his forehead that were nearly two feet long.

[Horned collision], the Tauren aimed his horns at the target and launched a deadly charge like a bison charge.

In fact, the tauren's [horn charge] is even more dangerous than the real buffalo charge, because this move of the tauren even contains supernatural power, and even ordinary rock walls cannot withstand this kind of attack.

The most frightening thing is that even if the Tauren hit the wall with [Horn Bump], the wall collapsed, but the Tauren did nothing.

Therefore, what ordinary cities are most afraid of is encountering tauren siege. If the attacked city wall is not protected by magic, and a group of tauren collectively launch [horn collision], then no matter how tall and strong the city wall is, it will not be able to hold it.

Of course, if it is replaced by a metal city wall, then the tauren's stunts will lose their supernatural effect, at most it is a brute force impact like a bison.

But how many countries and cities in this world are so luxurious that they use metal to cast city walls? !
Fortunately, tauren generally don't like to hang out on the ground. They prefer to stay in underground castles or underground mazes, which prevents most of the city walls on the surface from becoming toys like children's building blocks.

The impact target Aban chose was still Feniya. Of course, it was not chosen based on the size comparison between the two sides, but from his own beast-like intuition and keen senses.

Aban is not smart enough, but it can sense which of these intruders is the most dangerous one.

That man who looked a little handsome gave Aban a bone-chilling chill that almost tore apart the soul of a bull.Aban knew that it was a warning from death, which meant that once it was targeted by this terrifying existence, it would encounter something more terrifying than death.

As for the three little girls who are like human cubs?

In Faerun, of course, the strength and age of the opponent cannot be judged by the size alone. A little guy less than three feet tall may be a soft and cute real human cub, or a halfling uncle with a dark heart or The dwarf old clapper.

But looking at the human man's care and love for the three little things along the way, Aban felt that the danger of provoking the three little ones was no less dangerous than provoking the man directly, and it might even be worse.

What?You asked how Aban saw the performance of this group of intruders along the way, did it run to peep?

of course not!It was the leader of Kagal who took everyone to peep together, using the natural abilities of the leader of Kagal and some magical props.

It has been corrected and can be subscribed normally.

Thanks to the book friend [Wilkoji] for the reward.
