A sneeze destroys a magical civilization

"Master, my body contains the amazing energy of a sun and two fire element princes. Now I probably have the power to confront the gods head-on."

Along with the familiar voice, the dazzling light on Davian's body finally gradually dimmed, and the originally red dragon scale armor all over his body completely turned into a dazzling white.

It feels like suddenly switching from red dragon armor to white dragon armor or silver dragon armor.

But in fact, as long as you have a little understanding of "Sun Dragons", a kind of dragon that lives on the sun, you will know that this white color is the color that "Sun Dragons" only have when they reach the ancient age, and represents the most ancient color. Extreme heat.

Sun dragons are dark red or dark red when they are first hatched. As they grow older, the color continues to become lighter. When they reach their prime, they are just the golden color that many people think of as representing the sun.

But as they enter their twilight years, their golden scales will quickly turn blue and white, eventually losing all color and only showing the color of pure sunlight.

If there is air or water vapor in the surrounding environment, colorful lights like a rainbow will occasionally flash.

Obviously, today's Davian is no longer a Flame Dragon Knight, but a Sun Dragon Knight or a Sun Knight.

If nothing else, the breath in his dragon form will also change from the original cone-shaped flame to the atomic breath similar to a certain monster, or he can spit out a nuclear fusion fireball that can cover an ultra-wide range.

Only this kind of breath can destroy the divine shield and cause enough damage to the god's body.

And even the Blazing Death Sword, forged from red mana and black mana, now has the black mana inside it completely gone, replaced by white mana that symbolizes order.

In other words, this artifact's two-color sword has changed from black and red to red and white.

According to the naming standards of this series of weapons, it should be called [Zhan Ningjian].

When holding this sword, Davian is not only completely immune to all magical effects produced by red and white mana, but can also cause extremely shocking damage to chaotic camp and negative energy enemies.

Especially for demons and undead, it is estimated that the power of the sun in [Zhan Ning Jian] will be evaporated instantly if they come into contact with them.

In addition, he can also release all magic related to positive energy and fire attributes at will, without being restricted by spell slots or the number of uses.

If there are intelligent creatures in the time and space that worship the sun, whether the worship is directed at the sun itself or a god with the sun's priesthood, Davian can obtain powerful god-like power from it.

If not, then we can only rely on the power of the sun itself and the quasi-divine power possessed by the two fire element princes absorbed into it.

In short, this time Davian has definitely received an epic level of enhancement, suddenly leaping from the second to last among followers to the first in terms of overall strength.

As for the last place...

You don't need to ask to know that it must be the first follower obtained in Kalin Shirt a long time ago - Alena of Flame.

Due to the poor compatibility, Zuo Si made a simple upgrade a few years ago and directly chose to let him go, allowing him to join the adventure team and wander around, explore and cause trouble in Faerun and even the outer planes.

As for the remaining followers, whether it is the female version of Sarevok, the Son of God who was recently accepted, or the Storm Archer who absorbed the Eye of Talos, or the Grand Arcanist A who was separated from the Shadow Energy Core Gaza and Ferrin Demon Kui Varis both have a high probability of defeating the Flame Dragon Knight in a one-on-one battle.

But now, Davian has transcended them all, officially gaining the power to fight the gods.

But the price is that as a planeswalker, Zuo Si feels that he is completely hollowed out.

Not only was the energy stored in the mana pool completely consumed, but the special ability of the spark was also used to draw out the endless veins of the fire elemental plane. The whole person was so exhausted that he was confused and almost couldn't open his eyes.

There is no doubt that this is the side effect of forcibly absorbing the energy of the earth's veins.

Fortunately, the current level of planeswalkers is high enough, otherwise the spark would have to fall dormant for a period of time.

During this time, most of the planeswalker's abilities are temporarily lost.

The only thing he wanted to do at the moment was to return to a safe place immediately and take a nap, allowing the spark to slowly draw mana from the space and time connected by the land cards until he returned to normal from his weak state.

Thinking of this, Zuo Si responded bluntly without even asking or checking Davian's status carefully: "Now that the upgrade has been completed, let's leave this place quickly.

The next task of keeping an eye on the remaining Sons of Baal will be yours.

Especially Aberdare and another guy named Viecon, they must not be taken lightly.

I always feel that the Five Descendants are more like smoke bombs that are openly used to attract attention and disrupt the situation. They are the containers that Baal really uses to complete his resurrection.

Also, I may need to hibernate for a while. "

"You can rest assured, I will keep an eye on them. No matter what these sons of Baal and the dead God of Murder are planning, the final result will be failure." Davian solemnly promised.

"Haha, you are still as reassuring as ever."

A faint smile appeared on Zuo Si's tired face, and he was about to use teleportation magic to return to Faerun.

He was so sleepy that it was difficult to keep his head clear.

At this moment, Zuo Sicai finally understood why the old dragon Nicol Bolas was going crazy to regain the power of the ancient planeswalker.

Because compared to the power possessed by the ancient planeswalkers, the new generation of planeswalkers are simply useless.

After the silver golem Karn received the spark given by Urza before his death, just to test his power as a planeswalker, he instantly created the ancient silver time and space with five colored suns, which was later Mirrodin. .

But what about the new generation of planeswalkers?

Not to mention creating a complete time and space, with Zuo Si's spark level currently approaching LV30, it would be hard to make a sun without exhausting himself to death.

This gap is really too big.

Moreover, ancient planeswalkers often have many means of resurrection. Nicol Bolas himself and his brother Ugin have resurrected from the dead several times, and they have not lost their spark.

Whoever it was, after experiencing the powerful spark power of the ancient planeswalker, it would be difficult for him to willingly endure the substantial degradation of his own strength.

As the saying goes, question the old dragon, understand the old dragon, and become the old dragon...

The more Zuo Si learned about the nature of the Planeswalkers' core power, the more he understood why Nicol Bolas was determined to wage the War of the Spark at all costs.

Just when the portal was opened, the Salamander leader who had escaped an unknown distance suddenly came back with his men, rushed up to the cylindrical mountain, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Wait! Don't leave yet. !You haven’t responded to my previous proposal yet.”

"Um?"

Zuo Si was stunned for a moment, then quickly asked with a smile: "Are you sure you want to be loyal to me? You must know that I am not the fire element lord you met before, and once I sign the contract, I will never regret or violate it. possibility."

"Of course! I've seriously considered it.

You and your powerful servants defeated a fire elemental prince, and even swallowed up the entire energy of the Flame Abyss. You are as powerful as a god.

It is an honor for us Salamanders to be the vassals of such a powerful man.

Under your protection, we will be able to multiply and grow and give birth to more and stronger offspring. "

The leader of the Salamanders replied in the affirmative without thinking.

Because he knew that as all the fire element energy around the Flame Abyss was drained, it would no longer be suitable for fire element creatures to survive in a short period of time, and the entire tribe would have to migrate on a large scale.

And migration means vulnerability and vulnerability.

If you don't hold on to a thick and strong thigh at this time, there is a high probability that the entire tribe will be captured by other lords and become cannon fodder for mutual wars.

Zuo Si was keenly aware of the other party's thoughts, touched his chin and asked with interest: "What is the population of your tribe?"

"Three hundred thousand! Our tribe has a population of three hundred thousand, and there are many growing larvae. We can provide you with at least 150,000 qualified warriors and spellcasters."

The Salamander leader quickly reported a number that he thought was pretty good.

As a race where all citizens are soldiers, in fact, the adult population of 300,000 is equivalent to 300,000 combat units with level LV7 or above.

In particular, Salamanders mostly master innate spells such as Burning Hands, Fireball, and Wall of Fire. Therefore, they can not only fight in melee combat but also cast spells from a distance. They are quite good soldiers, and their strength is comparable to that of the Barb Demon among the devils.

The reason why I quoted 150,000 instead of 300,000 was mainly to ensure the tribe’s population base, survival and reproduction, and to prevent the enemy from taking the blame once they were defeated.

"It sounds good. You can go back and clean up now. I will send someone to sign the contract and take you all to Baator Hell later."

After saying these words, Zuo Si put a mark on the soul of the Salamander leader, and then walked through the portal with Davian and disappeared without a trace.

Before the legendary-level Salamander leader could react to what was happening, another portal opened out of thin air.

Immediately after, a tall and muscular Hell Fiend came out, holding a contract scroll as thick as a person in his hand. He spread it out in front of his face with an amiable smile on his face, and pointed to the empty space in the lower right corner. Said: "Come on, my dear friend, sign your name and the name of the entire tribe here, and then I can take you to the ninth level of Baator Hell to enjoy the wonderful life. Believe me, you will like it. New home.”

"Devil? Contract? That strong human-looking man just now was the big devil pretending to be?"

The Salamander leader showed an extremely surprised expression.

"Do you mean the great, just, generous, kind, wise and graceful Lord Soth?

Of course he is a great devil, and he is also the new lord of the ninth level, the prince of hell appointed by Asmodeus.

Being accepted by this adult is the greatest blessing in your life.

Okay, stop talking nonsense and sign the contract quickly.

You know, I am very busy. I have to rush to negotiate forty-three large-scale businesses today, each of which involves the ownership of hundreds of thousands or millions of souls.

To be honest, if it weren't for the Lord's sake, I wouldn't bother paying attention to small orders like yours. "

The Hell Fiend put on a face of "I am a successful person" and did not hide his contempt and disgust at all.

The Salamander leader obviously had no choice but to bite the bullet and signed the contract without even reading the terms carefully, and sold himself, his entire tribe and his descendants together.

It didn't take long, with the help of advanced inter-dimensional teleportation technology, a teleportation channel connecting the fire elemental plane and Baator Hell was opened.

The salamanders who had been waiting for a long time immediately dragged their families and fled quickly from this home where the ambient temperature was dropping sharply, with the "cold" reaching less than 300 to 400 degrees Celsius, which was not suitable for their survival at all.

…

At the same time, Zuo Si, who had just returned to the mage tower, originally planned to lie down directly in the secret room used to store clones to sleep.

But what a coincidence, Ovo suddenly brought back the first batch of mined Kadarin magic stones.

In desperation, he endured the hardship and exhaustion and met the great arcanist of the Netherese era in his room.

"My friend, you don't look good. Could it be that you have consumed too much to satisfy the desires of a certain goddess? You should pay attention to your health!"

As soon as they met, Owo's eyes immediately shone with a strange light.

After all, he had always suspected that there was an unknown PY transaction between Zuo Si and the third-generation magic goddess Midnight.

Otherwise, how could it be possible to directly open the back door and allow it to access the deep magic network and cast spells above the ninth level.

Zuo Si held his forehead and responded angrily: "Don't think nonsense.

I am not like Elminster, who sells his body and looks to please the goddess.

And you think doing that kind of thing can make me look like this?

With my devilish physical fitness, even if I do it day and night for several years, I won’t get even the slightest bit tired. "

"Then how did you get yourself into this state?"

Owo sat down on the soft sofa and began to unceremoniously pick up the snacks and drinks on the table and pour them into his mouth.

It has to be said that his habit of tasting snacks, snacks and drinks of different flavors does not look like an undead lich, but rather like a fat house in modern society who never leaves home.

"I overused my planeswalker power, that's all. But it's not a big problem. I should be able to recover after resting for about half a month."

Zuo Si gave the answer half-truthfully.

He obviously does not trust Owo very much, so he will not reveal anything that involves core secrets to the other party.

After all, the ideal of this great arcanist is to revive Netheril, so who knows if they will suddenly part ways or even become enemies because of disagreements in their ideas one day.

But fortunately, Ovo has always been quite measured. After hearing that this involved the ability of the planeswalker, he decisively stopped trying and placed the dimensional bag filled with Kadarin magic stones and a list on the table.

"Here, let's take a look. This is the first batch of successfully mined quantities.

Although it is not a large amount, as the number of miners increases and the collapsed underground tunnels are cleared, the output will definitely gradually increase.

Based on my experience, this should be a sizable bonanza.

It can be mined for at least several decades.

Some time ago, there was a group of red-robed mages who seemed to have heard the news and wanted a piece of the pie, but I found out and killed them all.

After learning this lesson, Sale should be quiet for a while.

Compared to the red-robed mage, the Haunted City that may return at any time is a big trouble.

Because Telamant Tanshur had returned to the material plane after the crash of other floating cities, he sent people to collect a large amount of knowledge, technology and undamaged magic items. "

"In the era of Netheril, how were Kadarin magic stones usually used?"

Zuo Si glanced at the numbers on the list and asked without looking up.

Ovo replied without thinking: "Generally speaking, the top-level Kadarin magic stones will be sent to the great arcanists of various floating cities for use in making various amazingly powerful artifacts or magic items.

Slightly inferior high-end goods will be auctioned and freely bid by arcanists.

Most of these guys will build magic stones into magic storage devices for emergencies.

Low-level Kadarin magic stones will be used to make some trigger-type one-time magic weapons, arrows, armors, etc. for warriors and priests. "

"Making weapons, arrows and armor?"

Zuo Si raised his eyebrows in disbelief.

He couldn't believe that the Netherese era was so wasteful, giving such important strategic materials to the soldiers for use.

And isn't it too dangerous to add trigger magic to melee weapons?

Wouldn't it hurt someone else?

"Hahaha! Don't be so surprised. In fact, this type of weapon is much easier to use than you think."

Owo obviously saw what Zuo Si was thinking, and immediately laughed and explained: "We will indeed infuse long-range weapons such as arrows with large-scale destructive magic such as fireball.

But for melee weapons, usually only low-level magic such as burning hands, magic missiles, electric claws, cold touch, weakening ray, acid arrows, and searing rays are used.

In this way, when the weapon inlaid with magic stones hits the opponent's shield and armor, it will instantly cause an unexpected spell effect.

In particular, weapons such as chain hammers, maces, and war hammers can often be inlaid with multiple low-level magic stones on the contact surface.

In this way, when it hits the target, more than seven or eight first- and second-level magic effects will be triggered instantly, causing extremely considerable damage.

At that time, many adult dragons were ambushed by teams equipped with magic stone weapons. Those who were captured were captured and those who were killed were killed.

Within the scope ruled by the Floating City, it is rare for evil dragons to wreak havoc. "

"I see!"

Zuo Si instantly understood the Netherese's thinking in using the largest number of low-level Kadarin magic stones.

To sum it up simply, quality is not enough and quantity is not enough.

Although one magic stone can only store one ring of magic, it is insignificant, but if seven or eight are used together, even if all magic missiles are stored, it can cause quite astonishing damage.

And these magic storage magic stones are replaceable.

After use, clean up the residue caused by the fragmentation, and then insert new magic stones into the grooves, highlighting the convenience of plug-and-play.

There are almost no downsides, except that it can be expensive.

However, considering that the price of Kadarin magic stones during the Netherese era was relatively low, those that could store three-level spells were only worth a few hundred gold coins, and one-level ones were similar to scrolls. Even warriors who knew nothing about magic could use them. .

Therefore, any warrior with some strength should be able to afford it, and naturally it is possible for it to be popularized.

But today's West Coast Empire only has one mine, so naturally it cannot be wasted like in the Netheril era.

Zuo Si thought for a moment and decided to distribute the quota of low-level magic stones to those low-level mages, warlocks and apprentices.

As for the warriors...

Let's wait until more mineral veins are discovered in the future. At this stage, it is better to do your own job.

After a while, he completed the distribution of the first batch of Kadarin magic stones on the list.

I believe those mages will jump with joy after hearing the news.

After all, how to store spells in a cheaper and more convenient way has always been one of the problems that magic users want to study and overcome.

An expensive thing like a magic storage ring is obviously not something that ordinary low-level mages can afford.

The same goes for storing spells in gems, and the cost is quite high.

Although the cost of copying scrolls is relatively low, it requires long-term training, and a certain amount of magic power needs to be permanently paid when copying.

If you copy too much, you may "fall down the grade".

In contrast, Kadarin Magic Stone is a third method of storing magic between the above two methods.

According to Zuo Si's memory, the reserves of Kadarin magic stone in Faerûn are actually not low. It's just that too few veins have been discovered, so the current price remains high.

Just when he was thinking about which areas might have higher reserves of this thing, Owo, who had already cleared a table of snacks and drinks, suddenly came over with his swollen and fat face and asked with interest: "I heard Are you studying Elf Mystery Lock recently?"

"Ah, yes, I found the Ring of Mysrien and figured out the nature of the Elven Mystery Lock, so I plan to develop a large-scale magic barrier of my own based on this."

Zuo Si nodded slightly and answered in the affirmative.

He has never been a stingy person when it comes to sharing magical knowledge, and the handwritten collection of books in the library in the Mage Tower is the best proof.

Whether it is the knowledge obtained from Netheril scrolls or the elves' advanced magic rituals and mythical locks, there are special classifications and records in them.

As for whether you can understand it and whether you can use it after learning it, that is another matter.

Anyway, Zuo Si never hides anything in this regard.

This is why countless high-level mages are vying to join the Arcane Order, and are even willing to hand over the phylacteries after transforming into lichs.

Because there is really something they long for here.

"Do you want to cover the city you rule or even the entire huge empire with magic locks?" Ovo continued to test.

But this time Zuo Si smiled and shook his head: "No. Although I may do this in the future, that is not the original purpose.

In fact, in my opinion, using Mystery technology to protect cities and countries is too wasteful.

Its real purpose should be to use itself as the core to create a control circle that is completely controlled by itself and is enough to cover a large area around it.

Within this scope, the caster does not need complicated spells and gestures, but only needs a thought, an action, and a triggered syllable to easily produce the desired results.

Whether it is summoning creatures, meteorites, fire rain, thunder and lightning storms, or expelling those intruders with evil intentions, making yourself invulnerable to water, fire and water...

My ultimate goal is to have the entire mythos combined with the spark of the planeswalker to create an absolute realm that can move with me.

Within this range, all energy and matter will be under my control, even the divine power of gods is no exception.

But it is not easy to implement it, and I only have a basic concept at the moment. "

Hearing these words, Owo's eyes suddenly shone with a strange look, and the corners of his plump mouth also raised slightly, he opened his arms and praised: "Create a movable mystery lock with yourself as the center?

Create an absolute realm where matter and energy are controlled?

Your ambition and appetite are really big enough.

I love this idea though!

If you don't mind, could you let me join in the fun? "

"sure.

In fact, I have written all the relevant knowledge and conclusions drawn from experiments some time ago in a notebook and put it in the library.

If you are interested, you can borrow it at any time, and just remember to return it after reading it.

And I think some aspects can also be applied to the floating city.

After all, with the energy source of Mythra's Core, it should be very easy to achieve the large-scale magical effects of many mythos.

In addition, I also have some interesting long-range magic weapon blueprints here. You can take them back to build a batch to prevent the return of the City of Shadows. "

After that, Zuo Si took out a stack of design drawings and principle explanations such as magic heavy artillery from his pocket.

Owo just glanced at it and immediately couldn't help laughing loudly.

He seemed to have seen Telamante Tanshur beaten by him until he looked disgraced and embarrassed.

After the two ended their conversation, Zuo Si quickly kept part of the magic stone in the dimensional bag, and asked his subordinates to distribute the rest to various magic schools. He quickly lay down in the secret room and fell into hibernation.

But the main body sleeping does not mean that the projection will also sleep.

Quite the opposite.

The projection in the world of Gray Eagle is currently sitting in a restaurant in a busy street of the city, eating the exquisite food served by the waitress in a very elegant manner, and occasionally reporting to the beautiful ladies and ladies who steal curious glances at him. Respond with a smile.

His behavior left Mordenkainen, who was sitting across the table, quite speechless.

The latter even suspected that the guy in front of him came to his own world to relax and vacation. From beginning to end, no one could see any conspiracy or shady evil plan.

On the contrary, they are like those bards who like to attract bees and butterflies. Since arriving in Greyhawk City, they have been going to and from various banquets and dances all day long.

With her super high charm, she makes all the women around her excited, but she remains aloof and refuses to take even one step forward.

After being silent for a long time, this legendary mage with a strong man's hairstyle and a bald head that could even reflect dazzling light under the sun finally couldn't help but question: "What exactly do you want to do in Gray Eagle?"

"Didn't I tell you before that this projection was summoned inexplicably?"

Zuo Si dipped a piece of fried steak into his mouth with some sauce, looking extremely relaxed and comfortable.

"Then why don't you take this projection back?

You know, now the whole city is agitated because of your arrival.

If I hadn't stopped you, there would have been many angry men who wanted to hire killers or kill you personally. "

There was a hint of impatience and annoyance in Mordenkainen's tone.

He simply couldn't believe that the other party had turned the originally peaceful Free City of Gray Eagle into what it was now without breaking any laws or using its own powerful magical power.

Look at the stupid women with blushing faces who are lost in love, and look at the anger and hatred bursting out of the eyes of their husbands, fathers and suitors, and you will know what Zuo Si did after arriving here.

To sum it up simply, they unscrupulously seduce wives and young ladies from the upper-class ruling class families in the city.

With a charm attribute of nearly 60 points and control over desires and human weaknesses, mortals have no resistance at all in this regard and will soon fall completely.

Although Zuo Si has not used physical means to put a green hat on anyone so far, this kind of mental derailment has ignited the fire of anger and jealousy in the hearts of men.

What's more, the scariest thing about cuckolding is the uncertainty of not knowing whether to wear it or not.

It will constantly torture and destroy a person mentally, making them suspicious and even driving them crazy.

On the contrary, after confirming that I have put it on, I feel more at ease. I forgive when I need to forgive and divorce when I need to divorce.

If it were someone else who was doing this kind of death-seeking thing, Mordenkainen wouldn't bother to care about the other person's life and death, and would even be very happy to watch a hired killer kidnap someone in a dark corner, and then take him to an unknown basement. Use the instruments of torture that can cause intense pain one by one.

But now, not only did he have to warn the thieves guilds and killer organizations again and again not to act rashly, he also had to find a way to appease the nobles and bureaucrats who notified Greyhawk City to ensure that they would not go to extremes when they lost their minds.

Otherwise, if we really take action, it will only turn into a one-sided game and massacre.

As the projection of the great devil, even if all the power of the planeswalkers is lost, it is absolutely impossible for a mere mortal to fight against it.

"Then let them come, just to kill the boring time. It's just a game anyway, I will exercise restraint."

Zuo Si shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly and continued to taste the distinctive local delicacies on the table slowly.

"Restraint? Come on! Those gangsters who were exterminated and even their souls were thrown into hell for blocking the road and robbing the caravan will definitely not think so."

Mordenkainen couldn't help but complain.

Zuo Si swallowed the meat in his mouth, took a sip of the slightly sour wine, and defended with a smile: "You can't blame me.

After all, they were just robbing, so why would they want to do such despicable things as rape and murder?

I hate this kind of unprofessional guy the most. He has completely disgraced the robbery industry.

If every group of robbers fishes as much as they do, the number of businessmen will definitely become smaller and smaller. How can the entire industry achieve sustainable development?

But if it's the other way around, as long as the robbers do as little harm as possible every time they rob, and only rob the businessman of half of his profits so that the latter is still profitable, the situation will naturally be different.

What's more, after these bandits were eliminated, the safety situation on the road leading to Gray Eagle has improved significantly. You should thank me. "

Hearing these words, the corner of Mordenkainen's mouth twitched uncontrollably: "Where is the caravan that traveled with you? I remember that there was a young girl who seemed to have a good impression of you, and you gave her back before leaving. A gift of great value to her.”

“They have long since completed their sales and purchases and left Gray Eagle for their next destination.

As for that girl, she is just an insignificant passer-by in my long life.

She is just a mortal, and there is no way she can understand my complicated identity, let alone turn the beautiful fantasy in her mind into reality.

Of course, this is also true for those ladies and ladies who are accustomed to a stable life and long for thrills in their hearts.

After all, distance creates beauty.

People always believe and pursue something they think is good.

But when these things really come and become reality, they will start to complain and miss the previous state.

Guess, if one day I suddenly show my big devil form, how many ladies and ladies will turn around and run away screaming in fear?

How many men who are angry, hateful and want to kill me will be scared to wet their pants?

Don’t you find this change in mentality and thinking interesting? "

After saying that, Zuo Si put down the tableware in his hands, picked up a napkin and wiped the oil stains and sauce on the corners of his mouth.

"So you're deliberately playing with people's minds? Enjoying their clown-like reactions?"

Mordenkainen raised his eyebrows, obviously not believing this statement.

In other words, his personality determines that he never trusts anyone, even members who join the Eight Leaves.

Zuo Si casually took out a gold coin from this world and put it on the table, then stood up and whispered in the other person's ear: "No, dear friend.

What I enjoy is not a clown-like reaction, but pleasure, pleasure from the heart.

It's like you get endless joy from maintaining balance.

Essentially we are all the same kind of people, we just experience pleasure in different ways. "

As the last word blurted out, Zuo Si straightened up and looked around the entire restaurant with playful eyes, then walked out and disappeared around the corner of the alley a few seconds later.

Mordenkainen sat at the table and stared at the steaming cup of tea in silence for a long time, seeming to be thinking about something. He got up and left after about seven or eight minutes.

But what he didn't know was that just as Zuo Si walked out of the restaurant, he was led by a young thief with short black hair through the most complicated areas in the city and arrived at the largest black market located in the sewers.

"Are you sure there is what I want here?"

Zuo Si stared at the young man who seemed to have some elf blood and asked.

The latter nodded without hesitation: "Yes. This is top-secret information that I bought from an insider at a high price of five gold coins. A powerful artifact will appear at the auction today. Now you just need to By paying one hundred gold coins, I can help you get admission."

"What artifact?"

Zuo Si was not in a hurry to give money, but continued to ask in a pretentious manner.

But in fact, he had already obtained the information he wanted from the other party's mind through the magic of detecting thoughts and memories.

"It's the Eye of Vecna!

Treasures left behind by the Hidden God in the mortal world before he became a god.

It is said to provide arcane spellcasters with great power.

Many mages and warlocks are eager to obtain this treasure.

So today's auction is bound to be a brutal fight.

I hope you brought enough money, otherwise there is a high probability that you will be eliminated in the first round of competition. "

The boy lowered his voice to deliberately create a strong sense of mystery.

It's a pity that his rhetoric may be enough to fool the locals, but it is obviously not of much use to a big devil.

However, Zuo Si had also heard about Vic's "three-piece suit" for a long time.

Among them were an eye, a hand, and a robe, all of which were said to have been used by Vecna ​​himself.

Among them, the eyes and hands require their original organs to be dug out and replaced in order to function. They are truly evil artifacts.

In comparison, Vecna's Robe should have the least side effects, but its effect is only to provide a little magic resistance and slightly increase the casting speed.

As for the legendary classic scam "Vecna's Skull", only when playing games will a "warrior" be willing to try to cut off his own head and try it on.

In reality, no one who is sane would dare to use their own life as a bargaining chip to gamble on the probability of one in ten thousand.

Thinking of this, Zuo Si immediately took out a small bag of gold coins, threw it over and said, "Go and book a place for me."

The young man caught the money bag very quickly, quickly opened it and counted the number of gold coins. He suddenly smiled and patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, just wait here for a few minutes. I will go to smoothen the relationship and get you an entry." Tickets."

After saying that, he immediately stuffed the money bag into his leather armor, and then patrolled the surroundings vigilantly to make sure that no one was watching him, and then quickly ran to a shack built far away from the sewer.

Since this is the largest black market in Greyhawk City, the people there are quite mixed, and you can even see many humans wearing the Holy Emblem of "Old Man" Iuz.

The merchandise is also diverse, ranging from stolen goods to unlucky ones who have been kidnapped and sold into slavery.

As the locals describe it, everything is sold and bought here, and the laws and rules above the surface have no binding force underground at all.

But the interesting thing is that no matter whether they come to buy or sell, no matter how evil and cruel the visitors are, they will not use force here, let alone engage in forced buying and selling.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for the entire black market to develop to its current scale.

Just as Zuo Si was admiring the "beautiful scenery" around him, a violent explosion suddenly came from a bifurcation of the sewer behind him.

boom! ! ! ! !

After the fire and explosion, a harsh sound came from near the explosion.

"Manab! How many times have I told you not to do those dangerous experiments and inventions in the store! Look at what you have done! Everything in my store is ruined!"

"Cough cough cough cough - calm down! Don't get excited! Listen to my explanation! This is actually just a small mistake. In theory, its explosion power should not be that big. There must be something wrong."

Following a violent cough and quarrel, two small dwarfs, just over the waist of an adult human male, crawled out of the ruins.

Judging from the body shape, one of them should be male and the other is female.

As for why they need to be judged by their body shape, of course their bodies are covered with a lot of dust and messy debris, and they can only barely make out their individual shapes.

What's even more outrageous is that after suffering such a violent explosion, the two dwarfs had no injuries at all...
