A sneeze destroys a magical civilization

Learn, train, accept various commissions and tasks to earn money...

The arrival of thousands of players has undoubtedly brought unprecedented vitality to the previously lifeless Floating City of Plantia. Even the tavern that no one went to has gradually become lively.

Especially those senior talents who are also from the earth, but know the truth about the "Fourth Natural Disaster" plan, often observe some strange behaviors of these guys who are kept in the dark with a good show mentality.

Several psychologists and sociologists have regarded it as an interesting research topic.

Because the current state of the players is very similar to the so-called "brain in a vat", there is no way to distinguish between virtuality and reality.

The only difference is that the principle of "Brain in a Vat" is to deceive the brain through electrical signals, and they are souls trapped in a virtual world called "Infinite City" by a supernatural force called psionic power, and put them in a virtual world called "Infinite City". The real world becomes a virtual game world.

Such a large-scale social experiment that may violate laws, human rights, and moral bottom lines would be almost impossible to be approved by any government or country on the original earth.

Even the countries with the most bottomless bottom lines and the most insane ones in modern history.

But now, it has not only become a reality, but it will also continue to increase in number over time, until the scale changes from thousands to tens of thousands, and then from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands, millions or even tens of millions. .

Don't think this number sounds exaggerated.

Just the opposite!

Ten million souls does not even account for one-third of the number of people who die on Earth in a year.

And with the dawn of the new century, the global population will expand at an incredible rate.

And it will reach more than 8 billion in less than 30 years, and the number of deaths every year will be an astonishing 60 million.

Even if we exclude ordinary souls who have not received a good education in extremely underdeveloped regions such as Africa, the Middle East, South Asia, and Latin America, at least millions of high-quality souls can be screened out every year.

If the conditions were relaxed a little more, increasing the number of players to 10 million within a year would not be a problem at all.

This is why Zuo Si regards the earth as a huge inexhaustible talent reserve.

The only limit is whether Mastermind Isadora can be powerful enough to connect so many consciousnesses to clones at the same time and ensure the stability of psychic signal transmission.

For sociologists, such a large-scale introduction of earthly humans into the world where the floating city is located in a special way can no longer be regarded as a simple transformation in a strict sense, but should be regarded as immigration.

Because the player's behavior, thoughts and consciousness will profoundly affect or even change the core background of the entire civilization.

What's more, their bodies still retain the most basic primitive desires and the ability to reproduce and produce offspring.

Unfortunately, the players are completely unaware of all this.

Some good-looking men and women from areas with relatively open social atmosphere hooked up together within a few days of arriving in the floating city. They took advantage of the cover of night to hide in inconspicuous places such as gardens, and had an "in-depth" discussion about the "origin of life". A very serious, very serious topic.

They didn't notice at all that their every move was being photographed and recorded by the ubiquitous invisible magic eye.

At the beginning, the experts from the overall planning and social science team enjoyed watching these exciting pictures from different angles, and even brought people from other departments next door to watch them together.

But as the number of dog men and women exploring the origin of life increases and the frequency of communication increases, they inevitably begin to become numb.

In the end, I completely lost interest in this kind of scene, and just recorded the names, races, and ancestry of the two parties when creating the characters.

Due to the complete lack of any protective measures, more than 30 female players were tricked in just a week or two.

When they learned the news that they were "pregnant" under the examination of the priest, they were all shocked and couldn't believe that a virtual game could actually get pregnant and give birth to a child.

However, when they heard that as long as they gave birth to a child, they would receive a reward of one hundred gold coins, and they did not need to take care of themselves, and they could safely leave it to the floating city's child care center to raise them, these players quickly calmed down and accepted this "game setting" Certainly".

After all, they enter the "virtual world" to earn rewards and exchange them for currency in the "real world" to meet their daily needs.

Wouldn't it be better if this could be achieved easily by simply having a baby?

It’s just a game anyway, it’s not like I’m really pregnant…

As a result, a small group of female players with no bottom line thought they had found a "loophole" in the rules, and began to slack off on the daily hard study and training. They only wanted to make money by relying on their inherent advantages as women.

Even some male players expressed strong envy about this, hating that this damn game does not allow the creation of characters of the opposite gender to their own.

You must know that one hundred gold coins is a lot of money for players who have just entered the floating city.

They complete various tasks on weekdays, and at best they can only get a few copper plates or one or two silver coins as a reward.

Some of the guys who contributed tadpoles even suggested to Vanessa, the daily manager of Floating City, that they should also receive a bonus.

It doesn’t need to be much, just half or even one-third of the amount given to pregnant female players.

As expected, the constructs were thrown out one by one from the second floor of the central tower, killing their idea of ​​making money as a "stallion" on the spot.

Fortunately, there were lawns and shrubs below as a buffer, otherwise even if the fall was not seriously injured, arms and legs would have been broken.

But even so, bruises and swelling are inevitable, and he also becomes the laughing stock of others after dinner.

However, the direct consequence of this incident is that if any female player wants to make money by giving birth to children, she must reach a spoils-sharing agreement with a male player, otherwise the latter will refuse to provide her tadpoles.

Facts have once again proved how chaotic and disordered the player group is.

They will always give you a big surprise or scare you in unexpected places.

Of course, unlike those "scum" who are full of opportunism, Jack worked extremely hard and hard in the process of learning how to become a priest of the Phoenix God.

At this moment, he was standing naked in the magic flame emitting astonishing heat in the center of the temple, enduring severe pain that ordinary people could not bear, and even though his skin was burned to a charred black color, he had no idea of ​​​​escape. .

Because according to the description of the doctrine, Bennu is the god of fire, soul and eternal life.

If you want to become its true priest, you must first endure the burning of the flames and sublimate your soul in pain, and then you can gain powerful strength and the great blessing of Nirvana and rebirth.

Especially when it comes to enduring the burning of magical flames in the first step, even players with blunted pain-sensing nerves would find it difficult to last more than ten seconds.

But Jack had held on for a full ten minutes now.

Just when his endurance was about to reach its limit, a miracle happened.

The burnt skin and muscles on his body suddenly cracked open, revealing the pink new skin that had just grown inside.

no doubt!

This is Nirvana and rebirth, one of the most important symbols of recognition and blessing from the Phoenix God.

The moment Jack dragged his huge body out of the flames, he suddenly raised his hand and suddenly released a ball of dazzling red fire.

Seeing this scene, Monlia, as the bishop, immediately stepped forward, put on a red robe representing the official status of a priest, and said with a slightly joyful tone: "Congratulations! You are as great as me now." A servant of Bennu."

"This is all thanks to your teachings."

Jack lowered his head very humbly and bowed to the supreme leader of the church in front of him.

Since he grew up in a traditional Christian family, he is not averse to faith, but is extra pious and fanatical.

Although he no longer remembers what god he believed in, certain habits are still retained and provide great help when learning the way of a priest.

"No, it's your piety and persistence that impressed God. I'm just an insignificant guide. Also, put on the mask quickly, otherwise someone will be vomiting after a while."

With that said, Monlia handed over a metal mask.

Seeing this thing, Jack's mouth twitched slightly uncontrollably, and he immediately took the mask and used it to cover his face that could be called a "serial car accident scene".

In fact, if he knew that the charm attribute had such a great impact on appearance, he would never choose to reduce it to such a tragic level as three points.

What's even more outrageous is that when wearing a fully enclosed helmet or the metal mask in front of you, its charm attribute will actually increase from three points to eight points.

However, complaints were complaints, and Jack still chose to put on a mask and walk out of the temple gate as usual, saying hello to his teammates waiting at the door.

"Good morning, how's your progress at the Academy of Nature?"

"Didn't you see how I dressed up today?"

Wu Sheng pointed to the brand new inlaid leather armor on his body, a long sword and a short sword on his belt. There was also a compound bow and a quiver full of arrows behind him.

There is no doubt that such a complete set of equipment is a reward that can only be obtained by graduating from the corresponding academy.

Wearing it means obtaining the true professional level of LV1.

"Hahahaha! Well done! I knew you were a born warrior. It just so happens that I have just become an official priest, and I will probably receive graduation equipment tomorrow. Then we will apply to leave the floating city together and venture into the outside world. One time." Jack laughed happily.

Wu Sheng smiled and nodded: "No problem, I'll wait for you. By the way, what do you think about the recent uproar?"

Hearing this question, Jack immediately showed a disdainful expression, sneered and said sarcastically: "One hundred gold coins may indeed be a huge sum of money for us now.

But don’t forget that players’ levels continue to improve over time.

The stronger you are and the higher your level, the more ways you can obtain money and wealth.

At that time, you may complete a dangerous mission and collect a few trophies from the enemy's corpses, which can be easily sold for hundreds or even thousands of gold coins.

Therefore, the most important thing at this stage is to lay a solid foundation and work hard to improve your professional level.

What's more, it normally takes at least seven or eight months from pregnancy to delivery. Even if some weird bloodlines can shorten the conception time, three or four months is still inevitable.

During this period, I believe that you and I will be able to earn much more than one hundred gold coins with our own strength.

Those idiots were completely blinded by the benefit in front of them.

Within a month or two, they will regret the choices they have made now. "

Wu Sheng nodded thoughtfully: "It makes sense.

Oh, by the way, I also want to tell you that there are six other people who graduated from the College of Natural Science with me.

One of them is a druid, and the remaining five are rangers.

In addition, there are 70 people in the Warrior Academy who have graduated or are about to graduate, and almost 20 people in the Thief Academy.

In short, it seems that there are not many veterans and killers like you and me who have been on the battlefield.

In addition, I also found that the learning and training time for spellcasting professions is much longer than that for warriors.

Does this mean that the potential and combat effectiveness of the former are much higher than that of the latter? "

"Oh? Wouldn't that be better! Although we are in a competitive relationship with them to a certain extent, we are also comrades in the same camp. If it is convenient, it is best to contact other teams to see if we can work together Action." Jack touched his chin and expressed his thoughts.

"I know. After I finish my task in the cafeteria today, I will try to make contact with him."

After saying that, Wu Sheng turned around and left.

But before he could take a few steps, he heard Jack's extremely surprised shout from behind him: "Wait! You can also cook?"

"Hehe! Of course! I am from a cooking class."

Wu Sheng turned around and gave his teammates a confident smile, and then disappeared without a trace across the street at extremely fast speeds.

"Cooking class? Are you kidding me?"

Jack's mouth opened wide with an expression of disbelief.

Because in his impression, soldiers who are responsible for cooking in the army are generally far away from the battlefield, and some have never even touched a gun a few times in their service career. How could they have such strong combat effectiveness and even be infected with murder? Addiction.

However, considering that the identities of these "old popsicles" who have been sleeping for three hundred years like myself are extremely complicated. They basically come from all over the world and people from different industries. There are also teenagers with terminal diseases and a strong warrior who can cook. It doesn't really seem like a big deal.

Thinking of this, Jack immediately shook his head to clear all the messy guesses and thoughts from his mind, and planned to use his last day to go to the training ground to practice his close combat abilities.

Although priests do not need to learn to wear and use almost all types of weapons and armor like warriors, it is still necessary to master a weapon.

The weapon he chose was a "can-opening artifact" weighing more than thirty kilograms - a war hammer.

On earth, it is impossible for such a heavy cold weapon to be used in actual combat.

Because no human being can lift it up and swing it continuously and fight continuously, not even those legendary heroes and macho men.

Typically, warhammers weigh less than a kilogram.

But in this world full of magical power, the bodies of many creatures will be strengthened to a certain extent under the influence of magical energy.

Especially Jack, who combines the blood of an ogre and a giant, has a strength attribute of up to 20 points, which is equivalent to a small humanoid crane.

Not to mention thirty kilograms, even fifty kilograms or one hundred kilograms can be swung easily.

But considering the long-term continuous combat, he still chose a relatively conservative weight.

As for the other free hand, of course I choose to hold a shield to increase the protection ability.

After a while, Jack collided with the large corpse-embedded creature in the training ground that was specially responsible for actual combat training.

Whenever the war hammer hits the thick steel shield, it will make a deafening sound, making other trainee priest players passing by stop and watch.

Because the strong impact and sense of power are really shocking.

At the same time, far away on the second floor of the central tower of the floating city.

Vanessa was looking through hundreds of applications from players who had graduated from the corresponding academy. It took a full minute before she raised her head and asked Tyrantir who was standing in front of her: "How do you think this situation should be handled?"

"Before Mr. Soth has found and locked the location of the new world, I think the best way is to find something for them to do first. For example, let them go to another continent to participate in our population migration plan."

Tyrantir thought for a moment and quickly came up with a solution.

Because neither Zuo Si nor he expected that among this group of players there would be so many masters who completed training and obtained professional levels in less than half a month.

Vanessa immediately shook her head: "No. The main goal of population migration is to control and capture alive. If these guys go there, I'm afraid they won't stage a bloody massacre."

"Then what do you think we should do? It's obviously not possible to keep these people in the floating city. Many of them are filled with a strong desire to kill. Who knows what will happen if they hold it in for a long time? Come."

Tyrantir frowned and pointed out the problem.

The more he learns about these souls from another world, the more he understands that this is an extremely dangerous double-edged sword.

If used properly, it will naturally make the enemy feel unparalleled despair.

But if you don't use it well, it might come back to bite you.

Of course, considering that Zuo Si and Isadora, the mastermind who obeyed him, always hold the key to the final switch, this danger is still within a controllable range for the time being.

"I remember some time ago, wasn't it said that there were signs of floating cities flying over in the south near the mountainous area? Why not send these people there first to do a field investigation. It would be best if they find it naturally. If they can't find it, let them It would also be good to clean up the undead creatures there to gain practical experience."

Vanessa made a bold decision after careful consideration.

Since Zuo Si has previously used the legendary magic [Nailed into the Sky] to send a signal amplifier made of magic, psychic energy and technology into the synchronous orbit, the player's range of activities in this world has been expanded to a very astonishing degree.

With the floating city as the center, it is covered within a radius of more than 10,000 kilometers.

Not only that!

The signal can be maintained even five kilometers underground.

It can even be said that as long as a few more similar magic satellites are launched, it will not be a problem to completely cover the entire planet.

The only drawback is that the cost of manufacturing this thing is very high, basically starting at one million gold coins each.

Once it malfunctions or is smashed by a meteorite from outer space, there is no possibility of recycling and repairing it. You can only build a new one and throw it up.

Even if Zuo Si has a big business now, it is impossible to launch several missiles at once to directly cover the entire planet. Instead, he will temporarily ensure that the player's activities within his own sphere of influence are not restricted.

What's more, the Magic Satellite, like the first-generation Behemoth Electromagnetic Gun, is something that was manufactured at any cost under the current strong demand. There is a lot of room for improvement in both design and process. There is no need to manufacture it all at once. It’s too much, it’s enough for the time being.

Tyrantir's eyes shone slightly, and he immediately nodded in approval: "This is a good idea, just in time to test the stability of the psychic signal. But how to send them there? Do we need to use group teleportation magic? ?"

"No, you can't use magic, otherwise if there is a floating city nearby, it will be easy to capture energy fluctuations.

Didn't the weapons design and R\u0026D department come up with a tool called an airship last week?

Let these players ride on the experimental model one that was just built.

When the time comes, load up on supplies and potions to neutralize the magical plague, and then release a large-scale mission with generous rewards. "

In this way, with the discussion between Vanessa and Tyrantir, the players' first outing mission was finalized.

You must know that although Zuo Si and the lichs in the organization have captured and cleaned up the large groups of undead creatures gathered in major cities, there are still small groups of undead wandering in those mountains, jungles and villages.

No one knows whether the mutated bacteria and viruses they carry are still contagious, let alone whether some of the undead have evolved self-awareness and wisdom after being baptized with negative energy for a long time.

Especially for players who only have LV1 real professional level, their entire army may be wiped out if they are not careful.

However, Vanessa and Tyrantir feel that a player's combat effectiveness should not simply be based on their professional level, but also include the various knowledge and professional skills they have mastered while alive.

…

On the other side, Zuo Si, who returned to the continent of Faerun, didn't know that the "Fourth Natural Disaster" under his command were about to set off on their first mission.

He was currently reading the information sent by the little devil while stroking the white bear cub lying at his feet, which had grown to the size of a black bear.

Since he has completed a series of biological modifications and has been blessed by the natural power of the legendary Druid, this little guy is no longer as skinny as when he first arrived, but has become very strong and fat.

The head is not as slender as the ordinary polar white bear, but as round and cute as the brown bear.

The two bear paws with exaggerated proportions and the metallic claws hidden under the meat pads still show that its lineage is no longer as simple as a white bear.

The few baby teeth that have just grown in are sharp enough to easily crush the hardest rock.

If you pull out the thick and lush hair and look closely, you will find that the skin that should be black also shows a metallic luster, as hard as steel.

If you use a magnifying glass, you can still notice that this seemingly smooth skin is actually made up of fish-like scales that are closely spliced ​​together.

You don't need to ask to know that Zuo Si implanted some "weird" bloodlines into this white bear cub with the ability to swallow and manipulate metal.

Although there is not much change in appearance, the bones, muscles, blood, and internal organs in the body are actually very different from those of white bears and even mammals.

This guy is currently holding a ball of cold iron worth tens of thousands of gold coins, dipping it in the butter on the plate from time to time, then putting it in his mouth and chewing it with relish.

The sound of the metal breaking made the little devil's eyes full of fear.

It has no doubt that this strange bear that has established a spiritual connection with its owner can bite his head or even half of his body into pieces in one bite.

"Interesting! I didn't expect that there were so many lurkers in Ascaltra, and even the families of the six members of the Council were infiltrated. The skills of these mind flayers really exceeded my expectations."

Zuo Si casually placed the information he had just read on the table, with a hint of mockery in his tone.

You must know that there are more than thirty mind flayers, operating under the noses of the Shadow Thieves, the Masked Mage Guild, and the Knights of the Burning Heart, without being discovered at all.

Some of them have also established secret strongholds, trying to convert more companions, and even create a new mastermind.

There are also several large business groups, some thieves guilds affiliated with the shadow thieves, and more than twenty famous adventure teams and mercenaries, all of which are secretly controlled by them.

If things continue to develop like this, maybe in a few decades or even hundreds of years, the whole of Amn may fall, just like the Entanglement Talisman controls Calimshan.

"Great Master! Do you think we should take some action to kill all these mind flayers? Or send out your mind flayers to take this group of lurkers for your own use?" The little devil's face was filled with an evil smile. asked.

Zuo Si waved his hand gently: "No, there is no need. Later, we will package these materials and send them to the six-member council and let them deal with them themselves. In contrast, I am more interested in this book and Its author was more interested.”

While talking, Zuo Si picked up "The Hero of Light and Darkness Volume 2" on the table.

You don't need to ask to know that this thing is the latest work of that former bard teammate - Kers.

But the problem is that there are a lot of contents inside that he, a mortal, should never know.

Including using the Eldrazi to threaten the gods in the Pantheon, and the trip to the Underdark to kill Angel Toxic Core and the Avatar of Shar who became the God of Spores, and recently teamed up with Shane VII to kill the Entangling Talisman and Ai The detailed battle process of Vikora Thaglan's "Sharp Tooth".

It can even be said that for all the big noises Zuo Si made in Faerun, the other party seemed to know the truth through some channel.

There is something abnormal behind the whole book.

And this feeling was vaguely felt when I read the first book.

The little devil undoubtedly knew this very well, and immediately reported carefully: "Master with infinite wisdom, after you mentioned this matter last time, I sent people to Deep Water City to investigate this guy named Kels.

It was discovered that he had parted ways with his two previous teammates a long time ago.

He is currently living in the home of a wealthy widow. Apart from writing, he indulges in pleasure every day. There is no sign of contact with anyone or any influence. It is said that even his personality has changed a lot.

This is obviously very suspicious! "

"You mean... he might be controlled or possessed?" Zuo Si narrowed his eyes and guessed.

"That's right! Maybe it's an evil god who is interested in you, or maybe it's the Demon Duke from Baator Hell, or the Demon Lord of the Abyss. Anyway, it's certain that this is definitely a conspiracy against you. ! As for these two books, they are actually bait deliberately released by the other party to attract your attention."

While saying these words, the little devil's eyes burst out with a frightening red light.

Although it is not outstanding in terms of strength, and can even be said to be quite weak, it clearly has rich experience and innate talent in analyzing conspiracies.

Zuo Si lowered his head and thought about it for several minutes, then stood up suddenly and said in a slightly playful tone: "Since the other party wants to attract my attention, I might as well pay a visit."

"What? Are you crazy? This is most likely a trap!" the little devil quickly dissuaded him.

"Trap? So what.

Don’t forget, this is the continent of Faerûn controlled by His Majesty the God of God Io, a main material plane that is extremely special even in the multiverse.

Whether the person hiding behind Kers is a god, a devil duke, or an abyss lord, I have enough means to deal with it.

The most important thing now is to understand the other party's identity and intentions. "

After saying this, Zuo Si directly activated the teleportation magic.

The white bear cub who was eating cold iron dipped in butter saw this and immediately poured the remaining cold iron and the butter in the rice bowl into his mouth. Then he hugged his owner's calf with extremely skillful movements and followed him. Teleported away.

The next second...

One person and one bear appeared in the mansion in Waterdeep City, startling the maid who was cleaning the basement.

Upon learning that his employer had appeared, the housekeeper Ivis Harlin ran downstairs immediately, wanting to report on the work and expenses during this period.

But unfortunately, Zuo Si was not interested at all. He directly threw another five thousand gold coins to the other party as daily expenses, refused to take the carriage driven by the servant, walked straight out of the door and disappeared into the endless flow of people.

However, he did not rush to find Kers, but went to the Black Stick Tower first.

Kelben and Laila, the electorate couple, had obviously anticipated Zuo Si's arrival, so they immediately invited him into the upper reception room.

As soon as they met, Laila couldn't help but test it: "Is the content in that book true? Did you really threaten the gods in the Pantheon? Afterwards, you went to the Underdark to kill a new god and destroy it. An incarnation of Shar, the goddess of night? Is that huge gap in the High Forest leading to the underworld your work?"

"Yeah! Although there may be some discrepancies in the details, it is indeed my fault." Zuo Si admitted very simply.

"Goddess! Although I have long known that with your power you will do some extremely crazy things sooner or later, but is this too much?" Kelben exclaimed, holding his forehead.

Because compared with what Zuo Si has done recently, the fact that Sammaster, who was called a madman, founded the Dragon Cult and caused the incarnation of Lathander, Lord of the Dawn, to bleed is really nothing.

He couldn't understand why the young man in front of him always looked rational and calm, but the things he did became more and more outrageous and exaggerated.

Zuo Si shrugged his shoulders innocently: "I can't help it. The reason for threatening the gods in the Pantheon is because they want to limit or even seal my ability to travel through time and space. What happened in the Underdark is because Shar, the goddess of the night, plotted against me first. , I had to fight back, and even when I joined forces with Shane VII, I had already greeted the God of Suffering, the God of Justice, and the God of Loyalty and Courage beforehand."

"Ha! So you think you have no responsibility at all, and you didn't do anything wrong?"

Kelben laughed angrily on the spot.

You must know that in order to investigate what was going on with the loud noises and vibrations coming from the High Forest, he sent out several elite teams, and suffered heavy casualties in the battle with the Zhentarim.

The spies of the Harper Alliance died one after another.

But what's the result?

The result is that all of this is just the insignificant aftermath of the divine battle in the Fungus Forest.

In other words, these people all died in vain.

"I can't say that I don't have any responsibility at all, but I'm definitely not the main one."

Zuo Si sat down on the sofa and poured himself a cup of hot tea.

Just when Kelben was about to say something, Laila on the side immediately stopped him by shaking her head with a very obscure movement, and then continued to test: "Then you came to Deepwater City this time to find out... Kers’ true identity and the forces behind him, right?”

Zuo Si first calmly took a sip of hot tea, and then nodded with a smile: "You guessed it right. I'm very sure that he is definitely not the Kels I knew before. As the lord of Waterdeep City, I believe you two have noticed this guy a long time ago, right? If you don’t mind, can you share the information? "

"It's okay to share information. But first you have to tell us, what if the guy disguised as Kels has an amazing background? You don't want to use that amazingly powerful artifact again in Waterdeep City, do you?"

There was a hint of nervousness evident in Laila's tone.

There is no way not to be nervous!

She has found out the information about the scepter that originally belonged to the ancient sun god Amaunata through some ancient books and information, as well as its terrifying power of absorbing the power of faith and transforming it into a divine impact.

This can be glimpsed from the huge sinkhole in the High Forest that leads directly to the Underdark.

In addition, it may be very difficult for other people to collect enough power of faith in Faerûn, and it may also annoy other gods and their churches.

But for Zuo Si, who has the ability to travel freely in different time and space, it is easier than eating and drinking.

Laila simply couldn't imagine that if the young man in front of her got into a fight with the ancient evil creature disguised as Kers and directly launched a divine attack on Waterdeep, would this historic city still exist?

"You are worrying too much. I just want to find out the other party's identity and purpose this time. That's all. I have no intention of taking action. What's more, I'm not a devil. How could I possibly put innocent people in Waterdeep City to death?" Drag it in."

Zuo Si gave the promise straightforwardly without even hesitating.

As a planeswalker, one of his greatest advantages is that he can always firmly hold the initiative in battle in his own hands.

As long as he doesn't want to fight, he can just use the power of sparks to teleport away.

At that time, all dimensional anchors and space locks will be useless.

"Very good! I hope you will do what you say."

Laila was visibly relieved to get the answer she wanted, raised her head and winked at her husband.

Kelben simply threw a sheep's head mark flashing with an evil red light on the table, and asked with a serious face: "I think you should recognize this, right?"

"A devil's mark from Baator Hell?" Zuo Si picked it up and glanced at it.

"No! This is not the mark of an ordinary Devil Duke or a plane lord, but the mark of Asmodeus, the Lord of the Nine Hells.

Obviously, some of your behaviors or abilities aroused his interest, so he deliberately published those books to attract your attention.

In addition, I also noticed that the house is now filled with the evil atmosphere from Baator Hell, which is obviously not something ordinary high-level devils can do.

So you'd better be careful and find a way to escape immediately if something goes wrong. "

Kelben issued a warning with an unprecedented solemn attitude.

Because no matter who it is, even the superior gods must be extremely cautious when facing Asmodeus, the Lord of Hell, otherwise they may fall into the trap he has set in advance.

The most important thing is that unlike the demon lords in the Abyss, who each have a clear origin and origin, no one knows who Asmodeus is and where he comes from.

In some very ancient rumors, he is described as a powerful god who fell to the original hell plane, or an ancient evil creature that represents some rules and order at the birth of the multiverse.

The devil was born from his blood filled with evil and filth.

In other scriptures written by unknown gods or other creatures, Asmodeus is described as an angel created by the gods.

During the battle with the devil, he acquired the evil qualities of his mortal enemy. With cunning strategies and the observance of the contract by the Gods of Order, he successfully stole power and finally established his own Baator Hell, and continued to fall from grace. Draw energy from mortal souls.

But no matter which one is the truth, there is no doubt that Asmodeus is powerful.

For thousands of years, he successfully resisted the continuous crazy attacks of demons just by commanding his demon army.

Moreover, other ambitious demons have never been able to truly threaten the supremacy of the Lord of the Nine Hells, even if several level lords join forces.

"Asmodeus..."

Zuo Si narrowed his eyes and whispered the name that terrified countless mortals. Instead of feeling any fear, he was full of expectations for the next meeting.

Because he is really too curious about Asmodeus's true identity?

Why are the devils pursuing me so hard?

Do you even hesitate to write a book to attract your own attention?

Just as Zuo Si was about to stand up and leave, Kelben suddenly added: "I almost forgot to mention that the result of the elf Lantis you asked me to help investigate last time has been obtained.

At present, there are less than twenty legendary magic shooters recorded on Yongju Island.

Sixteen of them have been dead for more than 500 years, and only two are still standing.
