I am a god in another world

Chapter 271 The Devil's Temptation

"With these, we almost have a chance of winning. What's left is how to arrange the tactics. This needs to be seen. How many people we can summon will be decided at that time."

Gavin turned to look at Copperfield and said, "You guys still need to face another problem, and that is how to survive tonight. Now is the critical moment for the drow vampire lords to unblock them. Those vampires will definitely send their spawn. Searching for blood sources everywhere, I will definitely not let go of your village."

Copperfield said confidently: "I didn't know who the enemy was before, so I let them succeed repeatedly. Now that I know it and can prepare accordingly, they will never think of taking away my villagers from my hands again. It's really If not, we will gather all the villagers together and stay up all night."

Gavin's eyes flickered, he wanted to say something, but when he spoke, he swallowed it back into his stomach.

The dog demon, who had been standing by as a tool to carry out orders, suddenly said: "I have a better suggestion here."

This opening startled the soldiers behind Copperfield.

As warriors, they do not have strong perception and are unable to detect the true origin of the dog demon.

Gavin rarely scolded it for being too talkative, but followed the conversation and asked, "What's a better suggestion?"

The dog demon's orange eyes flashed with the devil's unique cunning and said: "I suggest that you don't do anything in the refugee camp tonight and just wait and see what happens."

"What do you mean to wait and see what happens? What do you mean? Let those vampires take away our villagers?" Upon hearing this, Craigie suddenly became furious and said, "Are you crazy? How could you make such an inhumane suggestion? ?”

Copperfield's face also showed anger that could not be concealed, but he also had a calmness that Craigie did not have. He waved his hand and said: "Craigie, control your emotions. We are discussing tactics now. What we want is If you want to veto the other party's proposal, you must at least let the other party finish his proposal. Sir, why do you want us to do this? "

"The reason is very simple. For the night after, we have prepared traps in your village. It is the most stupid behavior to rush into the vampire lair and start an all-out war with them.

In the battlefield we set up, if we first eliminate the opponent's wave of active forces, and then follow up and attack their lair, our chances of success will be greater. However, if we want to do calculations mentally and unintentionally, we cannot let the opponent be prepared. "The implication of the dog demon is very simple, it is to use the villagers from the refugee camp who were kidnapped tonight to paralyze the vampires, so that they will send people again the next night.

This time, before Copperfield and Craigie could speak, Gavin scolded sternly: "That's enough, don't say any more. Your suggestion is pure devilish behavior. How can we sell out for a little profit?" Your own villagers, betraying your own compatriots?

General Copperfield, you will do whatever you want tonight. You must make sure that the group of vampires cannot kidnap any villagers. When we gather our forces tomorrow, we will capture the vampire lair in one fell swoop and destroy the inside. All the villagers were rescued. "

Uncharacteristically, the dog demon added quietly from the side: "My suggestion, although inhumane, has deeper benefits. You only consider the people who have not been kidnapped, but not the people who have been kidnapped..."

"That's enough." Gavin shouted angrily, "Shut up. If you dare to say another word, I will send you directly back to hell."

Copperfield's expression changed drastically, and he asked repeatedly: "What will happen to the people who are kidnapped?"

The dog demon was completely silent this time, acting as if I was an obedient servant and must obey my master's arrangements in everything.

After asking several times, the dog demon refused to speak.

Copperfield had no choice but to turn his gaze to Gavin and said: "Mr. Gavin, please let him finish his words. After all, this is related to the life and death of fifty villagers. I must weigh the importance."

Gavin sighed helplessly and said: "I'm sorry, it was my mistake just now. I shouldn't have let this devil speak. Wait a minute, what he said must be the words of the devil, and he will push you to the fire rack to roast, both ends. They are all the lives of the villagers. If you are not careful, the general will be stigmatized and lose the trust of the villagers in you. "

"My reputation is a small matter, but the life and death of the villagers is a big deal." Copperfield said firmly, "Whether it is the devil's words or not, I will listen to them."

Gavin nodded to the dog demon and said: "In that case, you can just say it, but for today's matter, you only have faults, not merits. I will settle the score with you afterwards."

The dog demon reluctantly said, "Have you ever thought about it? Why are those people who were kidnapped still alive today?"

Without waiting for the others to answer, he asked and answered himself: "Of course, in order to maximize profits, I tried to squeeze more blood from those villagers for my own use.

But this premise is based on their absolute advantage.

When they discovered that this situation could not continue.

Will they keep those villagers as livestock and continue to squeeze blood from them?

I don’t know what those vampires did. If it were me, I would definitely kill all these villagers immediately and squeeze out every drop of blood and even souls from their bodies to unblock the drow vampire lord. .

Even if there is no way to completely unblock it, you can still release more power for your own use in exchange for greater defensive power.

Therefore, we must either stay still or give these vampires a thunder blow and not give them the chance to harm the abducted villagers. "

This time, not even Craigie could scold the dog demon.

Because every sentence analyzed by the other party makes sense.

The situation was just as Gavin feared. This kind of analysis directly pushed them onto the scale of moral choice.

On one side are the villagers who have not been abducted, and on the other side are the villagers who have been abducted.

Is the priority to protect the abducted villagers? Or should we focus on rescuing the abducted villagers, let the vampires cause trouble for the time being, and watch them abduct more villagers?

But who can guarantee that? Afterwards, could they rescue all the villagers alive?

No matter how you choose these two choices, you will never be right.

In the blink of an eye, Copperfield's forehead was covered with dense beads of sweat, his cheeks twitched involuntarily, and there was unconcealable pain in his eyes. He had never made such a painful decision.

Even when facing the red bow of the ghost ship, facing the pirates of the Nelanthel Islands that were ten times larger than his own, facing the eye of the storm that destroyed the world, and facing the irreversible sinking of the Watcher, he did not hesitate at all. He made the decisive choice.

Because at that time, the path in front of him was extremely simple, which was to take his family and his brothers and escape from the desperate situation.

"Actually, this choice is not absolute. We can make appropriate compromises." Gavin said carefully, "The disappearance of people in the village does not happen in a day or two. It is inevitable that the village will be prepared. This kind of resistance will not completely anger the vampires and make them react rashly to extremes.

If the village shows some strength, but cannot completely threaten them.

They may change their strategy and become more aggressive, launching a large-scale invasion and plundering of the village, or they may not necessarily come out in full force.

In this way, we can wait for work in the village tomorrow night and catch them by surprise.

Just doing this is equivalent to turning the village into a battlefield and using all the villagers as bait. Especially, we are facing a group of vampires. If we are not careful, those villagers may be manipulated and turn against us. At that time, we It's a weapon that can't be used against rats. It's a dilemma. "

If Gavin had just thrown out this suggestion from the beginning.

Even if he doesn't receive strong opposition, he won't be well received. The reason is what he said at the end.

But with the dog demon and a series of reasons laid out in the front, this suggestion is relatively mild and acceptable.

At least he didn't sit back and watch his villagers being kidnapped.

Copperfield immediately answered: "Rescuing the villagers is an unshirkable responsibility for all of us. As long as we can eliminate these vampires and rescue our villagers, it doesn't matter if the village is destroyed. As long as the people are there, we can Build a new village.”

"Since the general has this awareness, let us fight. Those vampire spawns have been able to succeed again and again in the past, largely because we were not prepared.

As long as we are alert, everyone should try to stay awake tonight, cover their ears, and if necessary, tie themselves to the house with ropes. As long as we don't listen to their seductive words and take the initiative to walk out of the house, They are helpless. "Gavin was talking about another vampire weakness.

Forbidden. Vampires cannot enter a house without an invitation from the resident.

It is unknown whether vampires have this characteristic weakness in other planes, but they do exist in Faerûn.

This is the sacred will of the gods to protect their followers from vampires.

Without this protection, vampires would have become overrun and the entire material plane would have become their hunting ground.

As for why the gods allow it, vampires are such a cursed evil existence.

Eighty percent of the answers received were related to the multiverse and the balance between light and darkness.

Where there is light, there must be shadow.

Only darkness can reveal light.

When this is eliminated, the other will cease to exist.

Even the upper plane is no exception, but their dark projections are not on the upper plane, but on the lower plane. This is a deeper balance of light and darkness.

"Not only that, it's best if each person holds a few bottles of holy water so that they can be frightened away if necessary." Copperfield further added.

Whether they are vampires or vampire spawns, they all have terrifying regeneration abilities. Even trolls, this ability is their younger brother in front of them.

Not to mention vampires, even the next-level vampire spawn can easily regenerate severed limbs instantly.

Just like the troll's fear of acid and fire, it is also afraid of light and running water.

Once exposed to radiant damage or exposed to running water, their regeneration ability will be temporarily suppressed.

The situation of running water is too special. All vampires will stay away from large rivers and will not put themselves in such danger.

What works is radiant damage, and elixir is an extension of that damage.

"There are also piercing stakes," Regina said.

Driving a wooden stake through the heart is currently the only effective method known to completely kill vampires and vampire spawns.

Gavin objected: "No, the wooden stake is too conspicuous and can easily scare the vampires. Tonight, General Copperfield's mission is to drive away those vampires, not to injure or kill them. The wooden stake unuseful.

Why don't you let me handle this task? I'll bring a few druids here tomorrow. It'll be easy for them to shape the stakes. "

Regina didn't insist. "Your arrangements are indeed more comprehensive. Just do as you said. It's getting late. Those vampires may take action at any time. Village chief, you are under the greatest pressure tonight. You should make arrangements early!

There are also many variables on my side. I must go first to see if Mr. Daniel has left. If there is no other way, I will rush to the Hammer of Justice Monastery overnight to see if other Hammer of Justice have time. "

The reason why Daniel was listed as the first person to be invited.

Not only because the two sides have been getting closer recently, but also mainly for Gavin's consideration. After all, he has a devil on his side.

Regina can't be sure how Daniel will react at that time, not to mention those paladins who don't know their temperament. Once their pedantic minds don't turn at all, they will fight with them before seeing the vampires. That would be a big trouble.
