Mithril Throne of Forgotten Realms

Chapter 217 Black Hand and Hope

Fang Yi could feel the vitality of the girl in his arms draining rapidly, and just as the thief's heart was gradually cooling down, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind him.

Overjoyed, Fang Yi quickly turned his head. Sure enough, the vampire he had seen before had arrived on the roof at some point, looking at him with a smile.

"I know you are different from other undead creatures," Fang Yi gently put the little girl on the ground, stood up and said to the straight vampire standing in front of him, "Can you do me a favor?"

The vampire smiled and looked at the little girl with blood on her face, and then looked up and down the thief, "Although I have lived long enough, healing spells are not my specialty."

"No, the healing spell is useless," Fang Yi looked at the little girl lying quietly on the ground. The wound had been healed by Qing Gang's spell, but the breath of life had almost disappeared, and 0 was quietly sleeping, "I I hope you can kill her with your own hands, using your special method."

The vampire raised his eyebrows and looked at the thief in surprise, as if he didn't quite believe that the words would come from a living creature, a not-so-evil human being, "You want me to turn her into a vampire? "

Hearing the vampire express his thoughts, Fang Yi breathed out subconsciously, and the hesitation and contradiction in his heart had completely disappeared at this time.

"That's right," the thief nodded, Fang Yi couldn't believe his calm voice, "Tell me your conditions."

"Hehe, the inheritors of the White Queen are indeed maverick assassins. But I like it," the vampire grinned, revealing his snow-white, sharp canine teeth for the first time, which was even more strange in Fang Yi's black and white vision, "I'm a little curious, what price are you going to pay?"

"As long as it is within my ability, of course, even if I don't have the ability now, I will have it in the future." Speaking of this.Strong self-confidence has emerged on Fang Yi's face - which npc can have a high growth rate like a player?

The vampire smiled and nodded. He didn't speak, but waved to the little girl on the ground, and the red dress wrapped around the little girl's body and floated into the air.Seeing this, Fang Yi grabbed the girl's wrist. "Sir. Aren't you going to cast a spell here?"

"Do you think making vampires is just making clay dolls?" The vampire frowned, obviously disdainful of a certain thief's ignorance, "Don't worry. Although I can't save people, there are still some ways to kill and torture people." , she will be frozen by me and enter a state of suspended animation until you complete my request."

Fang Yi hesitated for a moment, but when he saw the girl's pale face, his heart skipped a beat, and he let go of his right hand that was holding the girl's wrist, and let her float towards the back garden of the castle.

"I did this only because you are the successor of the White Queen, otherwise the life and death of a mortal has nothing to do with me," the vampire stared at the direction where the little girl was drifting away, looking impatient, then turned to look at Fang Yi and said , "Don't disappoint the mark on your head, otherwise I don't know how many people will jump out of the grave and scold you."

"Can you see it?" Fang Yi subconsciously covered his forehead, staring at the vampire opposite.

"Nonsense, you think I've lived in vain for so many years," the vampire spat, turned his head and walked away, and waved his back to Fang Yi, "Seeing the hatred in your eyes, I think there are other things to do. Come find me when you've figured it out."

Looking at the vampire jumping directly from the wall, Fang Yixin said that this is really a hell, why haven't I heard that vampires have clairvoyance skills?How nice to me...

Now that the little girl's matter has been settled, Fang Yi's heart is also relieved for the most part.Although he still has doubts about his choice, Fang Yi knows that he must not allow the little girl to die like this—at least not in vain.

***

Fang Yi did not go back to the city, but went directly to the west of the city, and rushed towards the small building where Gelbo was in the forest.

Going around the woods, the small building that appeared in front of me was as quiet as usual, but the faint candlelight on the second floor made Fang Yi stunned: The old man is still not asleep yet?

"Who is it?" Fang Yi gently knocked on the door, but a young man's voice came from inside the room.Fang Yi grinned, thinking that it would take some time to find you, but it's better to be quick than to do it sooner rather than later.

"It's me, Cube."

"It's Big Brother Cube!"

With a slightly excited sound coming from the room, the wooden door was pulled open from the inside with a "squeak", and a young figure rushed out.

"Brother Cube, it's really you!"

Just as Fang Yi guessed, it was the old man's nephew Xia Ou who rushed out of the room.It's just that although the young man was very excited to see Fang Yi at this time, he still couldn't hide the exhaustion on his face, especially the two big eyes that were originally full of energy, were now covered with bloodshot eyes, as if he had just cried.

After thinking for a while, Fang Yi understood the reason of the matter, reached out and grabbed Xia Ou's arm, and said with a smile, "Okay, let's go in and talk."

The reason why Xia Ou looked like this was because he had just rushed back from the city.After seeing with his own eyes the tragic scene of corpses lying everywhere in the slums, Xiao Xiaou immediately rushed to the house to inform his uncle.

Now seeing the familiar black-clothed thief patted on the head by Fang Yi's powerful big hand, the tears that had just stopped couldn't be held back any longer, streaming down his face in an instant.

"Wuuu~Brother...Those robbers...My friends in the slums, and Uncle Joel, they, they all..."

Fang Yi turned around and closed the door. Seeing Xiao Xiaou's sad and weeping expression, he stretched out his hand and held him in his arms—even though Gelbo had been consciously training Xiao Xiaou's will, he was still just a teenager after all. Just a child.

The uncle Joel mentioned by Xia Ou must be the blacksmith named Joel who took in people like him back then.Fang Yi raised his head and looked at Gelbo who had just walked down the stairs, and his thoughts became more firm - although it was only an npc, even if those who died were all npcs, this kind of behavior is unforgivable.

"Okay, Xia Ou, don't cry," Gelbo came over and patted Xia Ou's shoulders that were heaving because of sobbing, and said in a deep voice, "You are already a man, just like your father, be a real A strong man will do!"

Gelbo's words seemed to have magical powers, Xiao Xiaou immediately raised his head, rubbed his eyes that had been crying like walnuts, although he was still sobbing, and although the sadness in his eyes had not dissipated, at least he had stopped crying.

Fang Yi smiled bluntly, and couldn't help recalling the little things he grew up when he was young. Now thinking about it, I really feel a lot.

Gelbo knew that Fang Yi must have something important to come over late at night, so he comforted Xia Ou and asked Xia Ou to go upstairs to rest.

"By the way, Xia Ou, are there any newly opened casinos in Xingmu City recently?" After Xia Ou walked up the stairs, Fang Yi slapped his forehead and pretended to ask casually.

Xia Ou stared at the thief, and didn't find anything unusual from Fang Yi's expression, "Well...it seems that there is a room at the intersection of the south end of Voyager Street and Old Leather Boots Lane, which was newly opened in the past two days. Yes, but... listen to the secret, I also heard from my friends. Brother, do you want me to take you there?"

"No need," Fang Yi silently wrote down the address Xia Ou said, smiled and waved at the other party, "I'll meet my old friend there, you go to sleep."

Xiao Xia occasionally hummed, and walked back to the second floor.Fang Yi listened carefully to the footsteps, and made sure that Xiao Xiaou had returned to the room and was lying on the bed, so he turned around and sat beside the pine table.

Gelbo frowned, his brows were full of grief and indignation, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to have suddenly increased a lot. The old university student seemed to have added ten years out of thin air at this time, and Fang Yi saw it. It was also sad.

"Huh... God can't bear it~" The old man let out a long breath, as if he wanted to let out all the depression in his heart, then raised his head, looked at the thief in front of him and said.

"Xiao Ou has already told me everything. Fortunately, there are adventurers like you, otherwise the casualties in the slums would have increased several times."

"I heard that the city guards have a mission to go out of the city tonight..." Fang Yi knew that the old man in front of him knew the inside story of the city inside out. Still need Gelbo's guidance and news to complete his plan more smoothly.

Hearing Fang Yi's words, Gelbo just snorted coldly, "Humph! Out of the city? Those city guards are old Charlie's lifeblood. After so many years, apart from transporting his own gold, silver and jewelry, when did Charlie let him go?" Those city guards have been out of the city, even when these robbers gathered in the castle, didn’t they just release a few reward tasks?”

"Then what do you mean...?" Fang Yi stared intently at the old man, waiting for his answer.

Gelbo glanced at Fang Yi, and shook his head slightly, "I know what you're thinking, adventurer. Don't act rashly, how can the lord of a city be brought down so easily? Maybe in the future, but not now."

"Since you have done something, you must bear the consequences. Looking at Faerun, even a dragon as strong as a dragon must be bound by this principle," Fang Yi pulled out the scimitar from his waist, and gently tapped Then he stabbed the sharp blade into the solid pine table, "Here, I am willing to be the executor of this rule."

"Hmph, do you think you can kill whoever you want with a good weapon?" Galbo glanced at Fang Yi's scimitar, thinking where did this kid get such a good thing, but his mouth kept saying Splashing cold water on the thieves, "Some people have no strength themselves, but the guards are all first-class masters."

After hearing Gelbo's words, Fang Yi smiled, knowing that the old man had already thought of helping himself, "Hey, that's why I need your help. I just want to know one thing, why did old Charlie take the risk Do you want to do the same for the danger of falling out with Cedar City?" (To be continued...)
