Mithril Throne of Forgotten Realms

As soon as the old man sneered, Fang Yi felt something was wrong, without any hesitation, he directly used the ability to hide his sight, turned his head and ran back.

Opponents who can't see the truth from the probing technique are definitely not easy to provoke. Of course, life-saving is the top priority.But Fang Yi still underestimated the level of the person in front of him.

A dense mass of bones suddenly appeared around Fang Yi, and Fang Yi, who was sneaking, couldn't dodge in time, and immediately bumped into the wall of bones that appeared out of thin air.Fang Yi yelled "Damn!", but before he could make a move, the bone walls in all directions surrounded Fang Yi tightly, and his hands holding the double blades were directly imprisoned, and he couldn't move immediately.

If Wildhammer was here, he might be able to break free from this bone cage, but Fang Yi's strength is only fourteen points, and he was bound into a rice dumpling in an instant, leaving only one head outside, and the master on the opposite side The old man looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes.

What is this for, to capture him alive?Reminiscent of the "specimen" that the old man said before, Fang Yi suddenly had a bad feeling, and quickly moved his wrist, trying to break free from this cage, but every time he moved, he was pierced several times by sharp bone spurs, and Fang Yi Grinning in pain.

"Oh my god...Mr. Master, can we remove this?" Fang Yi felt so uncomfortable that he was pressed against his vitals by the raised bones, so he could only say to the old man with a playful smile, "We must have misunderstood. ..."

"Hehe, that's not okay, your skills are better than I imagined," the old man forced a few smiles on his horse face, but in Fang Yi's opinion, this expression was even stronger than when he was cold. fear.It's as if a piece of human skin is directly set on the bone.

Fang Yi was wrapped in layers of bones, and lay face up on the ground. After hundreds of rounds in his mind, he couldn't think of any way to get out: his strength was too weak, and he could only use this trick to cage himself with bones. It is absolutely impossible to confront the opponent head-on...

"Okay, young man, let me take you to visit my collection room," the old man waved his arm like a dead tree branch, and a puff of smoke rose around Fang Yi, and a strange-looking humanoid creature with long hair Appeared out of thin air. [

Flesh puppets?

The guy who appeared out of thin air stretched out his sharp claws to hook the bones, and then dragged Fang Yi, who was tightly wrapped, to follow behind the old man.Fang Yi turned his head and looked at the big man beside him.He quickly recognized the identity of the other party.

Twisted chunks of flesh and bones were spliced ​​together haphazardly.His whole body was covered with pale skin that was the color of blood, and the most notable feature was the head that was only the size of Fang Yi's fist - this was the necromancer's summoned object.

Could it be that the old man in front of him is a necromancer who lives in seclusion in the floating city?Fang Yi curled his lips subconsciously. It is both a spirit sucker and a necromancer. This floating city will not become a den of monsters...

Fang Yi has no ability to resist now.Instead, my heart calmed down. : Anyway, I can't run away.Take one step at a time, after all, the plot of the game setting will not only give the player a dead end.

Soon, the tall and thin old man brought the flesh and blood puppet to a dilapidated stone wall.Gently tap the staff in his hand, and when a six-foot-square magic ripple emerges on the wall, revealing the dark staircase hidden behind the wall, the old man walked in.

The flesh and blood puppet followed closely and walked up the stairs.But it was a pain for Fang Yi, who was dragged up the stairs with his head down. The key was to restrict Fang Yi's movements. The bone cage was full of sharp bone spurs of different sizes.Whenever this big pile of bones knocked on the stairs, Fang Yi's vital parts would come into intimate contact with the bone spurs, and Fang Yi screamed in pain, and couldn't help but start cursing.

"Oh my god!...You old bastard! You stabbed me to death..."

"I'm going to castrate you when I go out!"

"Hey... Mister Mage, give me a levitation technique..."

The old man seemed oblivious to the assassin's curse, and walked slowly up the stairs.Just when Fang Yi felt that he was about to die in pain, the painful journey finally ended, because he was finally dragged to the top of the tower.

Throwing Fang Yi into the room, the flesh puppet retreated into the darkness with a loud sound.Poor Fang Yi was thrown face down on the ground. He could only see the thick dust on the floor in front of him and the cobwebs in the corner not far from his head. For the feeling of fish...

Fortunately, this awkward posture didn't last long. Fang Yi soon felt his body lighten, and he floated up with the bone cage, and was placed on a table. Only then did Fang Yi have a chance to see the scene in the room .

The first thing that catches the eye are huge glass jars, the small ones are about the same height as Fang Yi, and the big ones almost reach the roof.Except for a few empty ones, each of the other glass jars contained a living creature in a pale yellow liquid.

Or rather, a corpse. [

Dark elves, dwarves, humans, gnomes... Fang Yi even saw a mind flayer in a slender glass container!There is no light source in the gloomy room, only a few rays of sunlight can penetrate through the gaps in the doors.Fang Yi looked at these wide-eyed creatures stored in airtight glass jars, his eyes gradually narrowed.

"Do you like these specimens in my collection?" The old man said suddenly, his tone full of complacency and pride, "There are so many intelligent creatures, from different countries, different ethnic groups, and in various shapes and colors, don't you think it's very Is it beautiful?"

Fang Yi looked around the huge circular room, then looked back at the complacent, even fanatical old man, "This is really a different kind of hobby, Mr. Master."

"It looks a little weird, doesn't it?" The old man smiled fiercely, stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, and the bone prison on Fang Yi's body disappeared out of thin air.

However, seeing that Fang Yi, who had regained his freedom, did not move rashly, but retracted both blades at his waist, and a pair of dead fish also showed approval in their eyes, "Adventurers want to become legends, sober minds and Keen observation skills are essential, although your life has come to an end. But I have to say, at least you look much better than those before."

"Thank you for your compliment," Fang Yi withdrew his gaze, looked at the glass jar with a coiled snake man on his left, and asked with a smile, "But before that, I don't know if you are as wise as you, can you give it to me?" How many questions can I answer?"

"Of course." Following Fang Yi's gaze, the old man walked to the well-preserved corpse of the snake man. "After all, a creature with a special bloodline like you. There are too few successful examples."

***

A skinny mind flayer stood on a rock, with bloated white eyeballs looking down at the two dwarves below, raised his hands high, and a shock wave visible to the naked eye covered the cone more than 30 feet in front of him. shape area.

The gnomes are in an awkward position.Want to run but can't run far.Can only bite the bullet and charge.With one exception, they all fell within the range of the mind flayer, and the deterrent effect of the mind blast immediately appeared, and the two little men, who were only half the height of ordinary people, immediately rushed forward in unison.Lie directly on the ground.

When the three old devils woke up from the dizziness of the teleportation, they saw such a scene.

"Damn, it's this kind of thing again!" Wildhammer still remembered this kind of creature, and it was because of itself that an assassin almost had its throat cut, and that would be a deadly injustice.

"Only level 21." Qing Gang, who was also lying behind the rock, pulled out the Beast, turned his head and gave the mage a searching look, "Do you want to do it?"

The old devil looked around, and the three of them should be in an underground cave somewhere. There was faint light shining through the blurry gap above their heads, but the effect was limited.In the pitch-black environment, it was impossible to tell if there was an ambush, let alone Fang Yi's figure.

"Be careful, this thing is not easy to mess with," Lao Mo thought for a while, but decided to seize the opportunity in front of him, "Little Fatty, prepare your bow and arrow, and wait for my order."

On the other side, the mind flayer that succeeded in one attack let out a strange cry, and walked towards its prey—an advanced mind flayer, just like the one that the Mithril Shell team met before, generally knows levitation or simply uses Psychic powers fly, and the level of the one in front of him is obviously still low.

"Despicable underground race, as our food is your best destination, haha~~"

The mind flayer's arrogant telepathy was raging in the underground space, but he didn't notice at all that there were a few sinister eyes staring at him in the stone cave above his head.

Without any warning, a thin orange line shot out from a certain cave, and then disappeared in the air. The other end of the thin line pointed to the position where the mind flayer was standing.

"Boom!!"

The sound and light effect of the fireball technique is already very good, and it is even more powerful in this almost airtight underground space.The shock wave formed by the explosion lifted the unprepared mind flayer directly, and slapped it directly on the opposite wall like a kite with a broken string.The dust brought up by the shock wave swept across the entire underground space, and the originally dim vision became even more blurred.

Huge echoes kept going back and forth in the cave, and it took half a minute before the deafening echoes slowly disappeared, and the three heads slowly protruded out of the cave where they were hiding.

"Sister, old devil, when did your fireball become so powerful?" Wildhammer looked at the messy explosion scene below, and said with lingering fear, "Don't blow up those two dwarves to death."

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up," the old devil jumped out of the cave where he was hiding, and said while sliding down the stone wall: "Mind flayers are social creatures, be careful they have reinforcements!"

Several people have slipped down the stone slope while talking.The old devil first stepped aside to check the situation of the two dwarves, while Wildhammer and Qing Gang quickly ran to the opposite stone wall to check the hapless mind flayer.

It was only when he got closer that he realized that the mind flayer's head had been hit with a big hole, and the blood was almost drained, but the warriors and priestesses who approached the mind flayer soon discovered that they could still feel it in their brains. This guy's spiritual message.

"Mage...sneak attack...help..."

"Clap!!"

How could Qing Gang give the other party a chance to call for reinforcements, and directly swung the Beast's War, and smashed the octopus head of this unyielding mind flayer with a hammer, and the spiritual messages in the two people's minds came to an abrupt end .

After searching and finding nothing missing, Wildhammer had no choice but to cut off a few materials from the mind flayer's body, and then Qinggang returned to the old devil.

Fortunately, the two dwarves were not injured, but they were almost buried alive by the flying mud.Don't dare to delay now.Wildhammer carried one on each shoulder, and the three quickly left the bombed-out cave and ran towards higher ground.

Half an hour later, somewhere in a hidden underground cave.

The terrain of this cave is excellent, the entrance of the cave is blocked by a rock protruding from the rock wall, and there is no other cave to be found from below.

The magic flame was also well concealed, and nothing unusual could be seen from outside the cave.The priestess turned her head to look at the two dwarves who were still in a coma—to be precise, they should be subterranean dwarves, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Why didn't the cubes teleport with us?" Qinggang raised his head, and found that the mage on the opposite side was staring at the shield on the ground that had been cast with the light spell.It seems a little dazed.Can't help but ask, "How do you think we triggered the mechanism?"

"It must have been accidentally bumped into something during the battle~" The dwarf warrior guarding the entrance of the cave interjected, "It's all the fault of those grandsons! One second they said they would give us [-] gold coins, and the next second they turned their backs..."

"I don't think it's a trap. There is also a trap when we enter the mage's tower. This can be regarded as a plot branch~" He threw a light spell on the shield again.Only then did the mage raise his head and let out a long breath. He had stayed in this dark underground world for a long time.It will be a little stuffy.

"But where are we? How can there be such a large-scale underground cave here, as well as mind flayers and... subterranean gnomes?" Having said this, the old devil looked away from the two teammates and looked at The two subterranean gnomes lay motionless inside the cave, "I need them to help me answer this."

"Are you right, friends from the underground world?"

Qinggang was taken aback by what the old devil said, but the priestess quickly realized and turned to look at the two dwarfs on the other side.Seeing that the other party was still lying down and pretending to be dead, the old devil couldn't help but feel a little funny, picked up the staff that was leaning on the side, and stabbed one of the little men in the waist.

"……Hey……"

The little man couldn't resist the old devil's "scratch" attack very quickly, and couldn't help laughing out loud.Seeing that they couldn't pretend anymore, the two of them jumped up from the ground with a "boo!", and quickly took two steps back.The one who was awakened by the mage quickly put away his smile, and looked at the three strangers on the opposite side with vigilance.

In fact, the old devil had already discovered that the two of them had already woken up. Although the deterrent effect of Mind Blast was tyrannical, it didn't last long, let alone a level 21 "underage" mind flayer.

Moreover, when he mentioned "mind flayer" and "underground gnome", the breathing of the two little gnomes obviously became very short. The mage, who was eager to know the environment he and his teammates were in, didn't wait any longer and directly took the two woke up.

The two dwarves had very different looks, one looked obviously a young man, with a nervous expression covering this energetic young face, and the eyes that looked at Lao Mo and the others were more curiosity than fear.

But the other one looked much more sophisticated, his face was full of traces left by the years, his thick white eyebrows were particularly conspicuous, and there was no panic in his eyes.

"Who are you!?" The older dwarf found that his weapon was still in his waist, and immediately stretched out his hand to hold the hilt of the dagger, looking at the head mage and asked.

"Ha, I will introduce myself," the old devil grinned, recalled the setting information about this mysterious race in the game, and said with a smile, "But before that, shouldn't you say thank you~ at least We saved you from getting your brains sucked, right?"

"You killed that octopus head?"

The young dwarf's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief, as if the old devil had said something out of the Arabian Nights.

The Wildhammer who was sitting at the entrance of the cave snorted loudly on purpose, reached out and took out two greasy tentacles from his backpack, and threw them in front of the two dwarves.

"The rock is on top! Is this... the tentacles of the mind flayers?"

The old dwarf stared intently at the still struggling and twisted tentacles on the ground, and said in disbelief.

Originally, after waking up, he found that he was still alive. In fact, the old dwarf was [-]% or [-]% sure that his two names were rescued by these adventurers, but he was just guessing what kind of trick the mage might have used Just mind flayers.

Who would have thought that they would actually kill that monster!

"Thank you, adventurers"

The old dwarf heaved a sigh of relief, let go of his grip on the hilt of the sword, bowed deeply to the three of them, and said solemnly, "The stone is on top! You are the real warriors!"

Seeing that the other party let go of their guard, the old devil and the three also laughed. After all, it is not easy to gain the trust of these underground residents according to the legend. After letting the two little men to his side, the old devil introduced his teammates to the other party one by one.

"My name is Rhonda, and this is my grandson Zhuke," the old dwarf introduced himself solemnly, and said with a grin, "Adventurers, why did you come here?"

"That's exactly the question I want to ask." The old devil paused and asked impatiently, "What is this place?"

"This is the upper dark area!" Rhonda looked at the mage in front of him in surprise, wondering why the other party would ask such a question, "This is the underground of Falling Star Sea, but it is very close to the surface, so surface residents are not very rare. .”

"What...? Shit, we were teleported to the Underdark?"

Even though the old devil has a stable temper, he also felt a little bit pained when he heard the news: What kind of teleportation array is this damn, how do we go back! ? (to be continued..)
