The knight in the abyss

Chapter 860 Unexpected Goods

"Yes." The half-elf nodded bluntly, "But these are not all. Since there are no specific tasks at present, most people continue their original lives after receiving the news. These are the people who are willing to act with me ...and they will obey your orders, Captain, as long as the quest contributes to the coming of the Raven Queen."

"We still have to count on you to find a way." Lancelot shrugged, "Do you have a clue?"

"Yes." Tanya nodded, cheering up her friends, "I can confirm now that most of the clues are in the hag forest..."

"Hagwood?" Lancelot was a little surprised, "Why?"

"The instructor later showed me some new pictures..." Tanya lowered her voice, "It's still incomprehensible and very fragmented, but I recognized some of the scenes, the black lake, the collapsed high The tower, the huge barn, it's definitely the Hag Glade we've been to before...I don't know exactly what to do to bring the Master back into form, but I guess there should be an answer in the Hag Glade."

"When we came here just now, we noticed that the Lich sent heavy soldiers to guard that area." Lancelow frowned, "Unless there are other things to attract the attention of the defenders like before, I'm afraid I'm going to sneak in." Very difficult."

"I know, that's why we have been monitoring the woodland, trying to see if there are any loopholes to take advantage of, so we discovered this convoy." Tanya turned her head to look at the carriages, "I gathered for a short time The largest number of people that can be gathered, temporarily planned this ambush, now it seems that it is still sloppy, the strength of those skeleton knights is really unexpected, fortunately, you showed up in time..."

"We have followed all the way. We just wanted to see if they were really going to go outside the Demon Realm. If you didn't launch an attack, we wouldn't take action." Lancelot also looked at the trucks, "At least, We can now know what Payton wants to ship to the outside world, but I have a bad feeling..."

While they were talking, someone tried to open the compartment of the truck, but they soon discovered that the compartment was tightly locked, and it was impossible to open it without using violent means.

"We can't drag these trucks back to the camp. It would be too time-consuming and unsafe." Tanya expressed her judgment to Lancelot, "Why don't you just smash the trucks open and get the information? important."

"Okay." Lancelot nodded, "But I have a bad feeling that the contents inside may be very dangerous... Brutal, do you still have the dynamite that Phil gave you last time?"

"Oh ho ho ho, of course." The young dwarf rubbed his hands excitedly, "I knew I could wait until they come in handy..."

There were three trucks intercepted by the crowd. Everyone worked together and pushed the trucks into a triangle. Then the dwarves got in from under the wheels, and stuck stickers on the inner side of the trucks from the goblin profiteers. Come the explosives.Phil may not be honest about the price of the product, but he values ​​the quality of the explosives more than his own life, so there is no need to worry about the power of those explosives.

As for the safety aspect... this is goblin technology after all.Fortunately, the dwarves are also experts in explosives, and they know how to safely store and use this dangerous substance, even better than the goblins who made them-it's not that the goblins themselves don't know, it's just that these crazy people are in terms of safe operation. The little one had a disdain that bordered on religious bigotry.

After the arrangement was complete, the men retreated thirty feet away to watch the dwarves light the fuses and count down from ten.When he counted to three, there was fire and roar from the other side of the carriage, exactly as Lancelot expected.Judging from the fragments flying out of the explosion center, they successfully blasted the wooden boards of the carriage, but because of the location where the explosives were installed, they had to go close to understand the situation inside the carriage.

However, before everyone took a few steps forward, the goods transported in the carriage ran out by themselves—more precisely, they crawled out, because in the carriage escorted by the Lich, there were fat and , a giant worm with a human face, exactly the same as what Lancelow had seen in that barn before.

The worms are very aggressive. Of course, they may just be scared, but anyway, a group of giant meat worms about the size of a crocodile are rushing towards you. This kind of scene is quite a test of human will.The people that Tanya brought over obviously failed the test. They were already very vigilant with their bows, but when they saw those worms, they subconsciously started to shoot arrows.

The dense arrows fell like hail, nailing all the defenseless worms to the ground.Yellow and green body fluids shot out from the surface of the worm's body, and it also let out a scream full of pain, just like a real person, as if a massacre of unarmed civilians was being staged ahead.

At first, Lancelot wanted to stop other people from acting rashly, but after confirming that only the worm was found, he gave up his plan to stop.Although still bearing mortal faces, these fallen souls have been transformed into daemons, whether they become tanar'ri, baatezu, or yugoloths, depending on whose hands they end up falling into.

Also, since they are no longer mortal, their essence/essence is no longer in the form of a soul.Killed here, they are reborn in the River Styx, washed ashore in some random Lower Plane, beginning their 'wonderful' afterlife as daemons.So from a certain point of view, killing these worms is actually letting them leave this demon realm, which is considered a good deed.

"What a waste." Brutal stood beside Lancelot, with his hands on his hips, "In Twinbridge Town, these worms can be sold for a good price..."

What the dwarves say is true, due to the excellent plasticity of worms (especially those with evil neutral alignment), they are very hard currency in the lower planes, just not as portable as soul coins.If Lancelot's strength is still there, he can also use part of the abyssal aura to transform these worms into low-level demons, but doing so will consume too much power, and secondly, demons are rebellious by nature, unless enough force is applied to them. Threats of violence, or promises of good enough to entice them, otherwise do not acquiesce to the orders of their creators.

"Kill it, kill it, these things are useless to me." Lancelow shook his head, "I am more concerned about why Peyton Derek shipped them out? Isn't this a business between the Prince of Lies and the Hag? ?”
