One Sneeze Destroys A Magical Civilization

Chapter 197 Devil's Raid (For Subscription)

When the huge flail snail carcass was dragged to the open space, a guy dressed as a businessman immediately stepped forward and asked, "How much is the shell of this flail snail?"

"Fifteen thousand gold coins!"

The dwarf in the lead obviously knew how rare and precious his loot was, so he opened his mouth unceremoniously.

After all, in this world, the value of anything that has something to do with magic will soar in an extremely outrageous way.

Not to mention that the shell of the flail snail was originally a rare material for making various weapons and armors that can rebound magic.

Even if it is grinding powder, many mages are willing to pay a high price to buy it, or as a material for casting spells, or to enchant robes or cloaks.

When the businessman heard such an outrageous price, his voice suddenly rose an octave, and he screamed in an exasperated tone: "Fifteen thousand gold coins? Are you crazy about poverty? A complete flail snail shell in Waterdeep City is only five thousand!" gold!"

"Hmph! Can the small flail snail in Waterdeep City compare with the one we successfully hunted? Look at the size of the shell! Ours is at least five times bigger than the one sold in Waterdeep City. And whether it is The vividness of the color, or the strength of the natural anti-magic characteristics, are many times stronger."

The dwarf was obviously not a vegetarian, and he tried his best to emphasize that the flail snail shells he hunted were of higher quality.

Unlike traditional dwarves who are stubborn, reckless, brave and trustworthy in most stereotypes, dwarves who leave their homeland are usually greedy and cunning, and they value money and wealth very much.

Therefore, dwarf adventurers are often more difficult to deal with than adventurers of races such as dwarves, halflings, humans, elves, half-elves, and half-orcs.

Once they have determined the value of a certain loot, they will never accept any form of bargaining.

Obviously, if you bought this large flail snail shell with 15,000 gold coins, you might not be able to make too much profit even if you shipped it to Waterdeep City.

Therefore, a large part of the businessmen who were eager to try just now lost interest immediately.

After all, it would take several days at least to walk from Dragonspear Castle to Waterdeep City.

Along the way, you will not only pass through the Misty Forest, where orc marauders often appear, but you may also be "warmly welcomed" by lizardmen from the swamp near Daggerford.

If one is not done well, I am afraid that even my life will be lost.

When there is no way to ensure that the acquired things can make a lot of money, a shrewd businessman will not sell them casually.

Seeing the merchants leaving one after another, the dwarves' teammates were obviously panicked.

They still expect this thing to sell for a high price, and then live a happy life for a while.

In the end, a man in his thirties finally approached and lowered his voice to remind: "Bluoto, did you ask too high just now? Maybe it should be lowered a little bit."

"No! No! The more you can't lower the price at this time! Don't you see it? Those damn profiteers are trying to use this method to lower the price. Trust me! They will spend 15,000 gold coins to buy the flail A snail's shell." The dwarf called Broto swore.

"But what if we can't sell it? Are we going to transport such a large shell back to Waterdeep City? Even if we ship it back, we have no sales channels. What's more, we overturned the entire hotel in Waterdeep City last time, and it is estimated that by now Still being wanted."

Another female dwarf next to her questioned and rolled her eyes angrily.

As we all know, no matter where the group of adventurers goes, they will inevitably cause trouble, and drinking and fighting is even more commonplace.

Almost half of them have been in prison, and the other half will get this "achievement" in a short time.

In order to avoid jail time and fines, many people usually choose to escape before the guards arrive to arrest them after committing a crime.

And escaping means being wanted or offering a reward.

Obviously, this adventure team made trouble and escaped in Waterdeep City, and then got on the wanted list.

At least in the few years before the arrest warrant is revoked, one must not approach the sphere of influence of Waterdeep City, otherwise not only will he have to pay a large fine, but he will also have to stay in prison for at least half a year.

Being questioned repeatedly by his teammates, the dwarf Broto became visibly irritable.

Just as he was about to yell twice, he suddenly heard a voice behind him.

"Fifteen thousand gold coins, I want this flail snail shell."

This sound like a "sound of nature" instantly silenced the entire bickering adventure team.

The female dwarf and the human man subconsciously opened their mouths, as if they couldn't believe that anyone would accept such a lion's asking price.

When Broto, the dwarf, came to his senses, his old face suddenly smiled like a blooming chrysanthemum, he turned around and laughed in a very philistine tone, and said, "Hahahaha! I finally met someone who knows the goods. I will I know that apart from those profiteers who deliberately want to lower the price, I will definitely meet buyers with real vision.”

"It doesn't matter if you have good vision, but the shell of this flail snail is worth fifteen thousand gold coins." Zuo Si replied calmly.

With the [Eye of Knowledge] and the strong identification ability of the creation profession for various materials, he can basically be sure that this dead magical creature must have lived for a long time, and it ate quite a lot of minerals and gems.

Therefore, the strength of the shell's anti-magic force field even reached almost fifty percent.

In other words, if the armor and weapons made of this thing have the ability to completely bounce back the enemy's magic.

Among them, the famous "mirror cloak" that can reflect all magic damage, one of its main materials is the powder ground from the shell of this top-level flail snail.

For spellcasters who know how to make magic items and equipment, it is equivalent to an invaluable treasure.

And with such a large piece, it can be used at least twenty times.

Even for the lowest-level creations, the selling price will not be lower than thousands or even tens of thousands of gold coins.

So in Zuo Si's eyes, let alone 15,000 gold coins, he would buy 50,000 gold coins without hesitation.

This is completely different from the fact that merchants have to change hands and then sell after acquisition.

They don't even know how amazing a top-notch and complete flail snail shell can be created in the hands of a true master of alchemy and strange object manufacturing.

Basically, no matter what price the latter offers, the merchant can only sell at this price.

After all, the scarcity of magic itself determines that the number of customers who are able and willing to buy such things must be very small.

Although occasionally there are nobles, wealthy businessmen and other "taken advantage", they may buy one and take it back as a decoration.

But their wealth is not at the same level as those of high-level spellcasters.

As a senior adventurer, Broto has dealt with mages more than once, so even if he saw a boy like Zuo Si who looked only about ten years old, he didn't make a fuss, but asked a very straightforward question: "Are you going to pay the bill with gold coins or a money order? Let me state in advance that if it's the latter, we only accept money orders issued by the Temple of the Goddess of Wealth, the Merchant Alliance, and the Seven Suns Chamber of Commerce."

"Don't worry, I'll pay with gold coins. But I don't have enough gold coins. I wonder if you accept payment with magic items, potions, and scrolls?" Zuo Si offered to offer.

Since the "Big Coin Scattering" at Candlekeep ended, he really didn't have much cash left, so it was really difficult to take out 15,000 gold coins at once.

"Magic item? What kind of magic item?"

The dwarf frowned subconsciously, obviously a little unhappy, but he didn't directly refuse after all.

In any case, magic items, like gems, belong to the "hard currency" of Faerun Continent. Not only the price is guaranteed, but also they can be sold anywhere and exchanged for money.

Without further ado, Zuo Si took out a short wooden staff from the satchel and handed it to the other party: "A [Wand for Healing Minor Wounds], which contains fifty magic spells, I think it can offset at least three thousand gold coins."

"Ma Carlos! Come here and check to see if this thing really stores fifty rounds to treat minor injuries."

Broto turned around and shouted at a young man wearing the holy emblem of Shuna, the god of love and beauty.

The latter immediately ran to the front quickly, took the wand and felt the energy inside, and nodded vigorously: "That's right! There are fifty rounds to treat minor injuries. It's a very good thing. You must know that you are capable and willing to make There are not many priests and druids with wands."

"Damn it! You don't need to remind me of this, get out of here." The dwarf cursed impatiently in a low voice.

But soon, he ignored those teammates who made him feel troubled, and said to Zuo Si himself: "[Wand of Healing Minor Wounds] is discounted by three thousand gold coins, I accept it."

Obviously, something like this with healing ability is a pretty good choice whether it is used by the adventure team or sold in any market.

After all, no one would refuse to have one more good thing that could save their lives at a critical moment.

Through the first trial, Zuo Si almost already understood what kind of magic misunderstanding the cunning dwarf in front of him would accept, so he immediately took out a magic ring with an exquisite shape like flowing mercury from his pocket, and gently placed it on the opponent's chest Calloused palms.

"what is this?"

A look of wariness flashed in Broto's eyes.

Because there is no such thing as a magic ring that can be called "cheap" at all, and it costs tens of thousands of gold coins at every turn.

He didn't want the team to not only lose a penny of income after the flail snail shell was sold, but to pay back.

"A true invisibility ring.

It allows the wearer to cast [Invisibility] once a day, and as long as he does not attack or take it off, he can remain invisible forever.

In Amn, the master assassins of Shadow Thief are willing to pay a high price of 20,000 gold coins for such a ring.

Now, I just want to offset the remaining payment.

If you don't need this ring, just go to a big city and sell it, and you can make a net profit of almost 8,000 gold coins.

And it's not as heavy, bulky, and inconvenient to transport as a flail snail's shell.

How is your answer? "

Zuo Si's tone is full of temptation and provocation.

Although the market price of the invisible ring is 20,000 gold coins, with the special ability of the creator, one can be made with materials that cost less than 2,000 gold coins.

So when making a transaction, he prefers to pay with magic items if he can pay with magic items.

Hearing that the gadget in his palm was the famous invisibility ring, Broto's breathing became short of breath.

Without even a second of hesitation, he immediately put it on his thick fingers, and then completed the trigger gesture with a very clumsy movement.

next second...

The dwarf in heavy armor just disappeared in full view.

Fortunately, it didn't take long before he canceled his invisibility and reappeared within sight, and said with ecstasy, "Deal! Now, the face shell and corpse of this flail snail are yours."

"A wise choice. If you don't mind, can you tell me where you hunted this big guy?" Zuo Si asked with great interest.

"In the abandoned tunnel leading to the Underdark area on the west side of the castle. There are giant spiders everywhere, and there are horror claw monsters hiding in the dark to launch a sneak attack. To be honest, if it weren't for the good luck this time, the income would not be as good as it is. The other side is hunting devils." Broto replied in a low voice.

Because he felt that Zuo Si and his group didn't look like adventurers who came to "digging for gold" at all, so there was no direct conflict of interest with him, and it didn't matter to reveal some secrets under the castle.

If the adventurer asks, this sinister and cunning dwarf will not only not tell the other party the real situation, but will also deliberately spread false news, using it as cannon fodder to explore the unknown areas with many monsters and ferocious.

selfishness!

play hard!

This is what most adventurers really look like.

They are just like the players in the game, they will often kill people for a piece of powerful magic equipment or valuable spoils without asking why.

After watching the adventure team walk into a tavern not far away, Davidian pointed to the huge flail snail placed in the open space and asked: "Master, the dimensional bag we carry can't fit such a big thing. What are you going to do?" Pack it up and take it away?"

"It's very simple! First remove the useless muscles, and then use the three-ring [shrinkage technique] to shrink them to one-sixteenth of their original size, and they should be able to fit into the dimensional bag."

After all, Zuo Si went straight into the next hotel to negotiate with the boss.

After a while, the chef came out of the shop with his helpers and apprentices, brandishing a kitchen knife to cut the huge soft part of the flail snail into small pieces, and then put them into buckets or basins to take away.

No need to ask, they are going to make this thing into a meat dish and sell it to adventurers and merchants at a cheap price.

Zuo Si has tested that these meats are not poisonous and can be used as ingredients.

But what he didn't tell the other party was that the flail snail is strictly regarded as a half-earth creature, and the food it eats on weekdays is also various inorganic substances such as stones, sand, soil, ores, gems, and crystals, so the texture and taste of its meat I'm afraid it won't be too good.

Anyway, Zuo Si, who is deeply "poisoned" by dark cuisine, will definitely not touch the dishes made of this thing.

After all the meat was cut off, there was only a huge shell shining with colorful halos left in the open space.

Zuo Si avoided the place on the surface of the shell that could strongly reflect magic, and found a relatively weak place from the inside, and used four [shrinking] magic cards in one go, and finally succeeded in turning it into the original sixteen points One-size-fits-all, it was successfully stuffed into an empty dimensional bag.

It has to be said that the effect of the top-level flail snail shell on magic rebound is indeed quite terrifying.

If it weren't for [Shrink Object Art] that can only have effects on objects, it is estimated that the rebounded magic is enough to turn Zuo Si into a little bit like "Thumbelina".

After finishing all this, he turned his attention to the carriages of different sizes.

But unfortunately, I couldn't find a suitable one after searching the entire Dragonspear Castle.

In desperation, Zuo Si could only buy some iron ingots, copper ingots, leather, wood, gum, cloth and other materials necessary to build a carriage at the grocery store, and then, under the stunned gaze of the grocery store owner, he put all kinds of materials into the box as he wanted. Shape it into the desired shape and material.

In about two hours, a solid carriage with a main structure consisting of steel frames and wood, skinned and fixed with copper rivets, enough to accommodate at least eight people and even sleep in it, was assembled from scratch. .

The car window is also inlaid with a large transparent crystal formed from the body fluid of the flail snail, and the fullness of the outside can be clearly seen from the inside.

Since the [Feather Fall] is fixed under the carriage, no matter how uneven the road surface is, the carriage will be as light as a feather when it falls.

This also means that it will never bump up and down violently like a normal carriage.

It only needs to install a few springs on the four corners of the top frame to solve the problem of sudden bounce, and a magic shock absorber comparable to modern high-tech will be done.

Finally, a simple coat of black paint is complete.

"Looks pretty good, right?"

Zuo Si looked at his work with great interest, and asked without looking back.

Davidian smiled and nodded: "Of course! I think the shocked expression on the face of the grocery store owner just now can answer this question very well."

"Hahahaha. Before he left, that person asked me if I was a chosen one of Gond, the god of crafts and crafts." Zuo Si laughed happily.

In Faerun, if there is any god who has truly mastered the priesthood of science to a certain extent, it must be Gond, the god of crafts and crafts.

Known as the "God of Craftsmanship", "God of Inspiration", and "Creator of All Things", he is widely worshiped by blacksmiths, stonemasons, architects, engineers, inventors, and craftsmen.

Gond encourages all believers to invent and create to change the world.

In Baldur's Gate's "House of Miracles Supreme", a great number of inventions that are out of place in this magical world are on display.

Among them are astronomical telescopes familiar to people on earth, magical vehicles powered by steam, propeller aircraft, hand-operated water pumps, sophisticated mechanical clocks and many other very interesting things.

Although being banned from entering the city, Zuo Si regretted not being able to see these inventions with his own eyes.

But I also got a lot of useful information from Bernard who had been to Baldur's Gate.

He still has a good impression of the Church of the God of Craftsmanship and Craftsmanship.

Because it is impossible for anyone living in the modern society of the earth not to know the importance of craftsmanship and invention.

The Creator professional ability used by Zuo Si was obviously mistaken for the special power given to his chosen by the god of crafting and forging.

"The owner of the grocery store would never have dreamed that you are actually a voter of Talona, ​​the goddess of poison and disease." A dumbfounding expression appeared on David's face.

After a brand new carriage was built, Zuo Si quickly went to a nearby stable to buy two heavy pack horses specially used to pull the cart.

Since it was already around 3:30 in the afternoon, and the painted carriage needed to be dried a bit, everyone found a hotel to stay and set off tomorrow morning.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, they did not choose to stay in the lobby on the first floor full of adventurers and mercenaries, and even ate dinner in the room.

After eating, Zuo Si took out the spell book as always, and began to learn those four-ring and five-ring spells, and occasionally practiced super magic skills.

Isadora continued to exercise her psychic abilities and used her free time to learn magic knowledge.

As for Davidian and Huntington, one was guarding the door and the other was guarding the window to ensure that no matter where the enemy launched a surprise attack, they could respond immediately.

In this way, the time came to ten o'clock in the evening without knowing it.

Isadora, who was used to going to bed early, took a hot bath, lay down on the bed in a white nightgown and fell asleep.

Just when Zuo Si also closed the book and was about to rest, the little devil suddenly appeared and shouted in a slightly panicked tone: "Master...Master! It's not good! I feel a force from hell coming from The depths of the castle beneath me surge up."

"The power of hell?"

Zuo Si frowned subconsciously.

"That's right! The power of hell! There must be a big devil who entered the material world through the portal. Let's get out of here before it's too late." The little devil urged impatiently.

It was not difficult to see from the panicked eyes that it was obviously frightened, flustered and frightened, and all it could think about was how to escape as soon as possible.

"Calm down! Tell me what's going on!"

Zuo Si obviously sensed something was wrong with his Demon Pet, and his tone suddenly became cold and severe.

Obviously, the little devil couldn't disobey his master's order, so after trembling violently, he explained in a slightly trembling voice: "Yes...it's my boss! A powerful fiend from deep hell——Aigris .I can feel him coming, right under this castle."

"For you?"

Zuo Si rubbed her chin and asked in an uncertain tone.

As his strength continued to grow, he was no longer as helpless against legendary creatures like Balor Balrog and Hell Demon as before.

Just the opposite!

With the powerful ability of the Chosen and the increasing number of cards on hand, it is absolutely possible to defeat or even kill it in a head-to-head battle.

"I don't know, master. But it goes without saying that Egres is a sinister, cunning, and powerful devil..."

Before the little devil finished speaking, a loud noise came from the direction of the castle far from the hotel.

The dazzling flames and explosions directly blasted open the gate of the main building of Dragonspear Castle!

Immediately after, a group of devils rushed out from inside and killed anyone they saw.

The few guards guarding the door were torn to pieces by the swarming enemies before they even had time to react to what happened.

Accompanied by the organized and efficient killing, death and chaos quickly spread around the castle.

These evil alien creatures from Baator Hell, the first target they chose to besiege was the Temple of the God of War Tempus.

Because they know that the temple and the priests in the temple are the biggest threat to them.

After all, the devil is not a devil.

The latter succumbed to their own chaotic nature, and when fighting, they would only rush forward in a messy swarm, without any plans or goals at all, and would kill whatever they encountered.

But the former is a symbol of absolute order. Even if there are only two devils, it will be clear who is the commander and who is the soldier.

Under the constraints of this powerful discipline, although the devil is very evil, it still has almost the entire multiverse organization and the army with the strongest tactical execution ability.

Except for the abnormal and endless demons in the abyss, no one wants to face the invincible army of demons.

However, the priests of the God of War Tempus are obviously not vegetarians either.

After experiencing a brief period of confusion, the highest-ranking priest quickly rushed out with a group of strong men in armor and armed with various magical weapons to fight back.

The two sides began to fight near the narrow entrance of the temple. After a while, blood, broken limbs, internal organs, and brains were scattered everywhere.

No timidity!

No flinching!

Because for the devil, shrinking back on the battlefield means going back to accept terrible punishment, or he might be downgraded to become an inferior devil without any sanity.

This is a serious consequence that is simply unacceptable to them.

What's more, here is the material world.

Even if he was killed, he would be deported back to his hometown, and he would not be able to re-enter for a hundred years.

On the other side, the priests and followers of the God of War Tempus were originally a group of lunatics who loved war and fighting.

In their eyes, fighting these devils to the death is simply the best gift and sacrifice to the great God of War.

In addition, the place of the battle was inside the temple, and both priests and believers could get the blessing of divine power. They were like tigers coming out of their cages, quickly killing a large number of low-level devils who rushed to the front as cannon fodder.

Especially a forty-year-old man with a height of more than 2.5 meters, suspected of being of titan blood or ogre blood, with arms several times thicker than Zuo Si's waist, holding a warhammer in one hand as if he had opened Wushuang , in about half a minute, all four spiked demons (hama demons) were smashed into minced meat.

You must know that these devils with sharp thorns all over their bodies are not good.

In particular, the spikes on the body can even pierce the steel armor with ease, which is a terrible biological weapon in itself.

Once he is successfully tackled by them, it means that he will enjoy a piercing punishment for free.

But this strong man, relying on his unknown armor, a small amount of protective magic, and his own incredible physical defense, forced these spikes into the skin and soon couldn't go any further.

If there is no accident, he should be a barbarian with a level no lower than LV19. His skin and muscles have been mutated (damage reduction) under the action of magical energy. I am afraid that ordinary swords and swords can only leave behind the surface of the skin. A bloodstain.

For such a small injury, he only needs to take the time to throw a healing spell to restore it to its original state.

It was also with this powerful warrior at the front that the swarming demons were unable to enter the temple for a long time.

And every time he activated his berserk ability, he would be like a heavy meat grinder, smashing a devil's cap with a single blow, allowing blood mixed with brains to splatter on his body.

Zuo Si could even see the condensed energy in the barbarian.

That is the blessing bestowed upon the strongest and most fearless devotees by Tempus, the god of war.

Nothing is more favored by the God of War than a warrior who continues to fight to the death despite being at an absolute disadvantage in numbers.

However, when the powerful barbarian warriors were killing wildly, a creature over six meters tall, with a thick and powerful tail, bright red all over its body, and a pair of huge dragon wings behind it, Slowly walked out from the gate of the castle.

Anyone who is swept by his burning eyes like embers will involuntarily feel a strong trembling and fear.

Some adventurers who rushed over from hotels and taverns to help were instantly frightened and stood still as if they had been immobilized.

Because anyone who is not a fool knows that it is almost impossible to hurt this powerful devil with the weapons in their hands.

There is no doubt that this is the abyssal fiend standing at the pinnacle of Bator's hell evolution.

Above them, there are only a very small number of devil dukes and layer lords who have obtained independent shapes.

"Hmph! Poor mortal! Vain resistance!"

The deep hell fiend taunted in a tone full of contempt and disdain.

When he raised his hand, it was an instant fireball, and with a bang, the two adventure teams that were fighting against the devil army in the distance were blown to pieces on the spot.

Even the metal weapons and equipment on his body turned into molten iron under the terrifying high-temperature flames.

You must know that high-level devils are all masters of flame magic, and the fireball they released is simply beyond the reach of ordinary human arcane spellcasters.

After confirming that there was nothing around that could threaten him, the deep hell fiend immediately raised his hands and began to perform extremely complicated spell-casting movements.

Accompanied by the low and evil voice echoing in his ears, a chilling and terrifying magical energy began to gather in the night sky above his head.

The devils who were besieging the temple seemed to have noticed something, and hurriedly retreated to the rear at an extremely fast speed.

"Not good! It's the nine-ring magic [Meteor Burst]! Run!"

A woman dressed as a mage recognized the spell being cast by the other party through magic recognition.

After issuing a warning to everyone around her, she immediately turned around and ran with her companions, without stopping even for a second.

However, because the magic recognition time was too long, even after the warning was issued, there was no time to escape for a few seconds.

Except for two thieves who were suspected to be of high level, who rushed out 50 meters away in less than three seconds, it was too late for the rest of them to react.

I saw four huge and burning spheres falling from the sky, hitting the temple of the God of War Tempus hard one after another.

boom! boom! boom! boom!

moment!

The solid granite top floor of the entire temple was smashed to pieces on the spot, and the violent shock wave could even be observed with the naked eye under the moonlight.

Countless stones and stones mixed with flesh and blood and broken corpses scattered in all directions, and even the god statues that contained divine power were turned into dust under the impact.

As for the people inside, they died almost as soon as the first meteorite fell.

When all four meteorites fell, the temple was reduced to ruins.

Only the barbarian warrior with tenacious vitality, who was still seriously injured and half of his body was almost flattened by the meteorite, still struggled to push away the stone and stood up.

The doomsday-like tragic scene fully demonstrated the terrifying destructive power of the nine-ring magic.

Unlike the [Fireball Technique] of the third ring, which only has fire damage of up to 1,000 to 1,500 degrees Celsius, the power of the shock wave produced by the explosion is very small.

The nine-ring magic [Meteor Explosion] not only uses high-temperature flames to damage, but also has violent impact and explosion damage, and the direct damage radius is twelve meters, almost twice that of fireball.

Not to mention the God of War Temple that hit the bull's-eye, even the adventurers nearby who didn't have time to escape the range of the spell's influence all died incomparably heroically without exception.

Not to mention that the explosion will also splash stones and pebbles, flying in the air at a very high speed, causing serious damage to all creatures within a twenty or thirty meter range.

Only a very few very lucky guys were affected by just a little bit.

Right now, he is either clutching his chest and stomach and vomiting blood non-stop, probably because he has injured his internal organs;

Either an arm or a leg is broken, and they are shouting for help from other adventurers who are still alive.

But it's a pity, those devils will not let go of such a killing opportunity.

They rushed forward and killed all the wounded in the blink of an eye.

Feeling the fear and despair of these "main material plane guys" around him, a happy expression appeared on the face of the pit fiend, and he took out a scroll of parchment from nowhere, and charged at the seriously injured barbarian warrior. Said: "Mortal, I appreciate your bravery and fearlessness. Now, sign this contract to abandon your ridiculous god and join the great Baator hell. I will not only allow you to survive, but also heal your wounds, so that You continued to live to the point of old age and death a mighty warrior."

"Bah! Only cowards would make deals with you devils who are full of lies and deceit. I am a believer in the great god of war Tempus! I will never surrender to the enemy even if I die in battle!"

The seriously injured barbarian spat a mouthful of blood on the ground, his eyes full of courage to see death as home.

As a battle-tested warrior, he was never afraid of death, and even mentally prepared himself to die on the battlefield a long time ago.

"Yes, that's really regrettable."

Undoubtedly, the Purgatory Demon felt the firm will and belief. He sighed slightly with feigned regret, then raised his hand to finish casting the spell with a very fast movement, and aimed at the opponent with a light finger.

next second...

A scorching, high-temperature ray gushed out from the fingertips, directly burning the barbarian who was trying to rush over to make a last-ditch effort into a scorched black corpse.

However, he did not try to use his [Soul Binding] ability to take this powerful and brilliant soul as his own.

Because the devil is not a devil, they prefer to think twice, rather than unscrupulously vent their desires and nature.

At this moment, the God of War Tempus had already focused his attention on the barbarian.

If the deep hell demon dared to plunder the soul at this time, then there is a high probability that the god of war will descend the avatar and chop it up on the spot.

In order to prevent this from happening, the cunning devil released the souls of all priests and believers in the temple, allowing them to enter the world of the dead.

But for those adventurer merchants who live inside the high walls, they are not so polite.

All of a sudden, demons hunted and killed the fleeing adventurers in groups.

There was even a group of devils directly blocking the entrance to the outside, wanting to catch a turtle in a urn and attack all the mortals in Dragonspear Castle.

Watching these evil creatures from Bator Hell search house after house, Davidian finally couldn't help reminding: "Master, the enemy should enter this hotel in a few minutes. What are we going to do next?" How to do?"

"Don't panic. First of all, I need to find out what is the purpose of this hell fiend making such a big move." Zuo Si explained calmly.

As we all know, the devil is the representative of the evil and lawful camp.

In particular, legendary creatures like the deep hell fiend, who are at the apex of the social structure of Baator Hell, will never risk passing through the portal for the souls of hundreds of mortals, or a little devil who has lost contact. Come to Faerun.

He must have other more important purposes.

Thinking of this, Zuo Si turned around and stared into the eyes of his demon pet and asked, "What is your former boss's position in hell? Which devil prince or lord is he loyal to?"

"Aigris is loyal to the lord of the second layer of hell, Grand Duke Disbat. I only know that he is often responsible for sending some demons to the material world, and then wait for these guys to be killed and return to hell to be reborn, and then get all kinds of monsters from their mouths. Such news and intelligence."

The little devil hurriedly confessed everything he knew.

For his old boss, he is afraid and afraid from the bottom of his heart, and he can't even imagine what will happen if he is caught.

"Gathering information?"

Zuo Si touched her chin with a thoughtful expression, and suddenly the bone demon she met in the depths of the tomb in the Great Karin Desert appeared in her mind.

For some reason, he suddenly had a premonition that the latter was likely to be under Aigris.

If this guess is correct, then from the moment Calimport made the little devil into a creature card, he has already been targeted by this powerful pit fiend.

Could it be because the power of the planeswalker's sparks attracted the attention of the opponent?

Or just because the imp was cut off from hell?

Or is it the identity of the Chosen of Talona, ​​the goddess of poison and disease?

Just as Zuo Si was analyzing the other party's motives and purposes, a violent loud noise came from downstairs.

Followed by the sound of weapons colliding, and the curses of the adventurers.

You don't need to ask, the devils have rushed in from outside the gate.

It is definitely impossible for those guys who have been frightened by the deep-hell refining demons to block the disciplined demon army.
