I am a god in another world
Chapter 800 Checks and Balances
For those ordinary soldiers, the destructive power of these top legendary warriors who stood at the peak of the secular world and had one foot in the demigod realm was too great.
If Yamen Khan had not taken the initiative to force the five Leatherman witch councillors out of Lake Asen, the huge waves they rolled up would not be able to withstand the tools that were put together to cross the lake, and even the carefully made flat-bottomed boats would be easily overturned and smashed.
Lake Asen is not a small lake. Strictly speaking, it is the largest inland lake in Faerun.
Although the area of the Steam Lake and the Dragon Lake is far larger than it, they are both connected to the sea. They should belong to the sea like the Moon Sea.
Lake Asen is shaped like a boomerang, thin at both ends and thick in the middle. The water area from north to south is more than 600 kilometers, the widest part from east to west is up to 100 kilometers, and the narrowest part is more than 50 kilometers. The deepest part is more than 100 meters.
The place where the Tukans launched their attack was not the narrowest part of Lake Asen, which was either still controlled by the Kingdom of Leatherman or was not suitable for large-scale launching or landing.
They did not choose the widest water area, but the gray-white forest along the line that was neither wide nor narrow.
Because they took a simple lake crossing tool made by cutting down trees in this ancient and sacred forest.
The Tukans sent a landing force, and the Kingdom of Leatherman did not fight back until they entered the center of Lake Asen. Countless small witch boats that could only carry three or four people appeared on the lake like ghosts.
There were not many of them, only about 200. They were like sharp arrows, rushing towards the Tukan slave army with nearly 5,000 lake crossing tools.
That situation was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
Those Tukan slave soldiers obviously thought so too, and they screamed excitedly, paddling their rafts and boats desperately, and rushed forward.
The gap in strength between the two sides was really too big.
Even if they used ramming, they could still overturn these 200 boats.
The first to react in the Tukan army were the Tukan Eagle Knights. They flew towards these witch boats in teams of three or five. Before they arrived, the whistling arrows arrived first, and every arrow hit the vital points of the witches operating the boats.
All the people on the witch boats ignored these long-range attacks.
Most of them missed directly. Even if a small part of them hit the witch boats, they were blocked by an invisible magic barrier and bounced directly away.
The reason why these boats are called witch boats is that they are not ordinary boats, but a kind of witch magic tool. All the people riding on them are witches and their apprentices.
Each boat is composed of four witches, one responsible for sailing the boat, one responsible for protection, and the other two responsible for attacking.
These witch boats were incredibly fast. Although they couldn't completely get rid of the Tukan Eagle Knights, most of the magic they dropped from the air missed, and only a small part hit. For a while, they couldn't break the protective shield supported by the witch Leatherman who specialized in protective spells.
Of course, not all Tukan Eagle Knights were archers who were only good at archery, but also a large number of shamans.
Because the previous few dispatches were air combat confrontations, those Tukan Eagle Knights who specialized in bows and arrows were better at this, so they were more famous. When it came to air-to-ground combat, those spellcasters with large-scale group killing spells had more advantages.
The bombing of the witch boats by these Tukan Eagle Wizards did not last for a few rounds, and the overwhelming birds swarmed over and harassed and besieged them.
These birds included vegetarian birds such as geese and swans, birds of prey such as forest eagles and owls, and ferocious species such as fierce forest eagles and fierce owls.
The biggest threat to the Tukan Eagle Knights is the Leatherman witches among these birds. They can transform back to their original form at any time, give the enemy a fierce backstab or magic attack, and then turn into birds again to escape.
With the use of a large number of enchantment magic, not to mention the birds, even the soldiers will betray to the other camp from time to time and fight against their allies or masters.
The sky is full of these birds fighting and chasing each other, and it is difficult to tell the winner for a while.
It is difficult for Tukan's air force to provide magical support to the crossing lake troops, and this is exactly the purpose of the Leatherman Kingdom.
Two hundred witch boats are like two hundred sharp arrows, piercing into the crossing lake troops of the Tukan army, rushing around, and various group attack spells are gushing out like a tide, including fireball, lightning beam, ice storm, roar, etc.
The most used is still fireball, this area magic is the best.
It has enough killing power and is enough to cover the entire speedboat and raft and destroy them.
The witch boat's target is not the soldiers on the boat, but the lake crossing tool they are riding. As long as it is destroyed, they have already penetrated into the center of Lake Asen and have no way to swim to the other side or return by the same route.
Even if they are not drained of body temperature by the extremely cold lake water and drowned alive, those aquatic creatures under the water will not let them go.
The navy of the Kingdom of Leatherman has never been known for its ships. The native aquatic creatures living in Lake Asen and Lake Moshantir are the real main force.
There are a large number of nik elves, sea fairies, etc. living here.
According to legend, the number of members of the Leatherman Witch Council is not eight, but nine. This mysterious ninth member not only rarely appears in front of the world, but rarely even participates in the Witch Council, but her influence However, the power has penetrated into every aspect of the Leatherman Kingdom, and no one can ignore it.
Because this witch only appears in Asen Lake and surrounding areas, many people speculate that this witch is not an ordinary witch, but an aquatic creature, possibly a kind-hearted lake spirit, who rules the entire Asen Lake. All water creatures.
There is also speculation that she is a powerful water spirit who, like other spirits in the Leatherman Kingdom, is responsible for guarding the watery portion of the country.
No matter what the facts are, one thing is certain, that is, the entire aquatic creatures in Lake Asen are firmly on the side of the Leatherman Kingdom and fight alongside them.
When the Witch Boat launches an attack from the surface, the attack below the water surface also launches.
Huge backs suddenly rose from the water, larger than the simple boats and rafts filled with people. The boat was destroyed on the spot, and the Tukan slaves who fell into the water swam desperately, trying to stay away from this place. , but how could they run past those creatures in the water? In the desperate howl, they were dragged into the water, and circles of bloody waves rippled.
Tentacles that were astonishingly thick and long rose directly from the water, dragging the simple lake crossing tool and the soldiers on it into the water.
One after another, flexible figures flew quickly through the water, and the ropes binding the raft were cut. The slaves watched in despair as their loads gradually decomposed. They would soon be dragged into the water like the monsters around them who fell into the water. In deep water, when they came up again, their throats had been cut, or they had been chewed to pieces, and there were even many that never floated again.
When the beautiful singing sounded over Lake Assen, many slave soldiers did not even have the chance to despair. Many of them had obsessed and weird smiles on their faces, drew their swords, and started fighting against their fellow shipmates. Some even Holding his companion in his arms, they jumped into the cold lake water together.
It was a one-sided massacre.
The swords in the hands of ordinary slave soldiers have no power to fight back against these underwater creatures. Even if there are spellcasters among them, the effect they can have is very limited. After all, most magic cannot be used underwater. Yes, if a fireball hits it, water will splash in most cases, and it will not hurt an enemy at all.
The only thing Tukan's slaves crossing the lake could do was to flee in all directions, or continue to advance towards the west bank in a panic, or change direction and row towards the east bank where they came from.
In this case, there is only one thing they need to do, and that is to run faster than their companions, so that they can help them hold off the enemy and buy themselves time to escape.
The first battle across the lake launched by the Tukan lasted less than seven hours, of which less than an hour was spent on the confrontation.
The first three hours were spent waiting for the lake crossing troops to enter the depths of Lake Asen.
The next three hours were used by Leatherman's navy to pursue and defeat the defeated enemy.
The 50,000 Tukan slave soldiers who crossed the lake were almost completely wiped out. Less than a hundred rafts and boats escaped back to the east coast. All of them were dragged to the side of Lake Asen by the furious Yamen Khan. They were treated as deserters and chopped down. To scare the slave soldiers who are ready to move.
After this battle, the Tukan people completely gave up the idea of crossing the lake by means of transportation.
With the patrolling and guarding of these aquatic creatures, there is no possibility for them to sneak across. No matter how many tools they build to cross the lake, their lives will be destroyed. It is just a matter of persisting for a while longer.
…
Another confrontation took place on the border of Cesk.
It's just that the smell of gunpowder between the two sides is much lighter.
A huge rectangular banquet table is placed in the deserted wilderness. Not only is it equipped with matching tables and chairs, it is also filled with a dazzling array of food, including water-stained fruits, steaming bread and hot soup, as well as There are all kinds of rums, wines, etc.
Those wine glasses even fill up automatically and are delivered to those in need, allowing them to take it themselves. This is the credit of those invisible servants.
This banquet is not an ordinary banquet, but a sixth-level magic hero banquet.
This kind of banquet created by magic can not only satisfy people's appetites and provide people with daily consumption needs, but also has many healing effects. As long as those who have participated in this banquet just need to sit down in their seats. , even if they do not eat any food, their common ailments, nausea and other diseases will be cured, and they will be immune to toxins for the next twelve hours, and gain a certain degree of temporary life.
If one has eaten enough of the banquet food, his morale will be greatly improved, he will have an advantage on attack rolls and Will rolls, and he will be immune to fear for the next twelve hours.
Before many adventure teams set off to deal with powerful evil or go on great adventures, they usually ask someone to cast this spell to provide them with blessings, which makes this spell more worthy of its name.
This spell obviously does not have this role here, but serves as a negotiation table.
The people sitting on both sides of the dining table, just taking out one of them and stamping their feet can make the whole Faerun tremble.
Sitting on the west side of the dining table is a middle-aged man, neither tall nor short, with a short black beard on his face. He is not angry and intimidating. He is wearing a set of gold armor with a purple dragon showing off its power on his chest.
This person is none other than the supreme commander of the Furen coalition and King of the Kingdom of Cormier, Yasan IV.
The wise old man sitting on his left is his right-hand man, the court wizard Fenggedahast.
The five people sitting opposite King Yasan are dressed exactly the same, wearing bright red wizard robes. Regardless of gender, there is not a single hair on their heads, including eyebrows, which are shaved clean. Instead, they are replaced by blue magic tattoos of different shapes. The energy fluctuations emanating from them can clearly feel which department of magic they are good at.
These are the five red-robed wizards who can be on an equal footing with King Yasan. Of course, they cannot be ordinary red-robed wizards, but five of the eight chiefs of the Red Robe Wizard Association.
"King Yasan, what exactly do you want to talk about? Can we start?" The tall red-robed wizard in the lead asked impatiently.
This person is called Aznar Taharulo, the chief of the Red Robe Mage Transmutation Department. You can tell from where he sits that the Transmutation Mage Department ranks very high among the Red Robe Mage Department, at least in the top four. The four mage departments in front of him are headed by him.
Among the Red Robe Mage, there is no such thing as humility and harmony.
The open and secret struggles between the eight major mage departments are well-known throughout Faerun.
There is a very famous proverb in Faerun that only the Red Robe Mage in a competitive state can restrain each other. When all the Red Robe Mage united, they would either go to destruction or unify the entire Faerun continent.
"Chief Aznar, don't be anxious. There is still a guest who has not arrived. It won't be too late to talk after the guest arrives." King Yasang responded with a smile, "You're welcome. We can eat while waiting. When the guest arrives, we can change to a new table."
While speaking, King Yasang did not stop the knife and fork in his hand. His movements were impeccable and graceful, but the speed was quite fast. In the blink of an eye, a large amount of food entered his mouth. It was as if there was a dragon hidden in his stomach, without any change.
"Who is so arrogant? Let us wait for so long?" The one who spoke was the red-robed wizard sitting at the end of the left side. His name was Laozoril, and he was the chief of the enchantment department.
The thin and gloomy red-robed wizard chief seemed a little impatient from the beginning.
He was forcibly pulled out of an important experiment of his own to make up the numbers. If nothing unexpected happened, when he returned, the experiment would basically end in failure, and his millions of experimental materials would be gone.
He didn't feel bad about the money, but he felt bad about the huge amount of time and energy he had invested in the early stage, and everything had to start from scratch again.
"I, can't I?" A slightly hoarse female voice sounded in the air.
A magical aura of teleportation flashed not far from King Yasang, and a tall figure jumped out of it. She had long silver hair and wheat-colored skin, wearing a pair of adventure boots that covered her entire calves. The tight black long skirt on her body, which was a bit like an evening dress, was already tattered, especially at the hem of the skirt, there were several big holes, and one of the big holes even had a spark that was not completely extinguished.
Even with this unkempt appearance, it still couldn't cover her beauty.
After coming out of the portal, she walked to the dining table in a hurry, picked up a glass of wine and drank it all, picked up a basin, and poured the clean water in it on her long skirt to extinguish the last spark on it.
She just looked at the chief of the enchantment department again and asked coldly: "Lauzoril, do you have any objections?"
"It's this crazy woman."
"I knew it would be her!"
Although the red-robed mages present did not jump up from their seats in shock, their expressions became serious and highly nervous.
Because this person is none other than the witch queen of Agoralon, Alashia*Silverhand, but she now uses the name Xinbu more often. She is one of the seven sisters and the chosen one of the goddess of magic, Mystra. She is nicknamed the Queen of Storms. This nickname refers not only to the magic she is best at, but also to her temper.
As the neighbor of the country she leads, the red-robed mages of Sel have a deep understanding of this, because the two sides have fought more than once, and even if several of their chief mages join forces, it is difficult to get a good deal in front of her.
If the Kingdom of Leatherman relies on the collective strength to prevent the Kingdom of Sel from going north, then the Kingdom of Agoralon relies on the power of one person in front of it to force the Kingdom of Sel to change its national policy.
The chief of the enchantment department, Lauzolier, who was targeted by her, was under great pressure. He felt like he was in the center of the storm, surrounded by overwhelming storms, and felt that he would be completely swallowed up in the next second.
Even the arrogant chief of the red robe mages had to lower his proud head and said, "I didn't know that the lady was coming. If I had known earlier, I would have waited a little longer, after all, the lady had to run around for the safety of our Faerun."
Bowling in front of the Storm Queen is not a shameful thing for the red robe mages. After all, there are not just one or two chief red robe mages who died in her hands. Many of them were completely destroyed, and even the resurrection back-up plan they arranged could not take effect. Several current chiefs were able to take office because of her.
"Where is Sazas? Why didn't he come?" It was not Xinbu's kindness that saved Lauzolier, but the diverted attention. She was very dissatisfied that she did not see the first chief of Sel.
"Chief Sazas, there is no way to get out of here. If you have any questions, just talk to us. We will inform the First Chief afterwards." Aznar replied expressionlessly.
But he was already on high alert in secret. Magic power was gathering around him. He secretly made a seal with his hands, ready to face the opponent's sudden attack at any time.
