Warhammer Wizard

About half a mile away on the left, where the rift is wider.

After careful observation, Raistlin realized that the rift was not one, but two. They intersected each other to form an irregular "X" terrain. It was only because his position was blocking his view that he could not see the whole picture.

Where the two rifts meet is a large lava lake.

A huge black rock stands in the middle of the lava lake, like a steep mountain, the highest point is close to the gap above the rift, and one side is blocked by a waterfall, like an island in the lake.

There are several stone bridges around the waist of the boulder of the mountain, spanning the lava lake hundreds of meters wide and connecting the surrounding cliffs.

At this moment, a spirit illithid was flying on the stone bridge and entered the interior of the mountain.

Raistlin's gaze followed it, the All-Seeing Eye saw through the rock, and found that a huge space had been dug out and divided into a dozen layers.

The highest level is located on the top of the mountain, built into a dark palace, blocked by invisible magical power, even the all-seeing eye can't see through. The architectural style of the exterior of the palace is unique. The walls are carved with countless frescoes in the shape of illithids, tentacles and tadpoles.

The vastness of this spiritual energy has reached the point where it is visible to the naked eye.

It is like a layer of bright blue-violet light, which has the effect of capturing the soul, and it is like a living thing.

This is the purest power of the mind!

The palace on the top of the mountain is like a tower, and the spiritual power emanating from it envelopes the entire city. Many caves, stone bridges and tunnels above the cliffs also have rune circles and magic traps that echo them. Within the field of vision, a strange light was revealed everywhere in the city, as if entering a twisted world in a nightmare.

Raistlin was secretly startled and withdrew his gaze.

If outsiders break into the city and cannot resist the erosion of this spiritual power, they will soon fall into hallucinations and eventually become slaves of illithids.

At the same time, triggering these magic traps will also alert the main brain.

Although he couldn't see the inside of the palace, Raistlin was sure that the illithid master must be inside!

At this time, Kuilu said, "Come with me."

Everyone followed her invisible force field and entered an uninhabited cave not far away. There were several skeletons of gray dwarves lying there, which seemed to have been abandoned for a long time.

Raistlin carefully inspected the cave to make sure there were no traps.

In fact, the tunnel entrance where everyone came in is located at the edge of the city, far away from the core area, so it is relatively safe.

Kuilu looked at Raistlin, "What do you think?"

"I agree with Izt's guess. Elaentor is likely to have a Saint-level powerhouse." Raistlin glanced at Izt and replied, "But I still want to give it a try."

That palace is equivalent to the Mage Tower. Judging from the strength of the spiritual power it exudes, it is far superior to the legendary high-level, with a probability of more than 99% to have a holy-level spirit attractor.

According to the Book of Aliens, illithid society is divided into four classes.

The highest is the mastermind, which controls everything in the entire community. The other illithids are just extensions of its will; the second is the super illithids, also known as illithid elders. These powerful psions have six tentacles, which are larger than ordinary illithids. There are two more illithids, and they form the council of elders that manages the city on a daily basis.

Then there are ordinary illithids, citizens of the city.

At the bottom is a huge number of slaves.

Slaves are also divided into two levels, one is armed guards, with weapons and armor, well-equipped, forming an extraordinary army, their leaders can follow the illithids and become guards or servants; the other is laborers Slaves, they do all the dirty work, and are also food for illithids.

An illithid eats the brain of at least one intelligent creature every month, otherwise it becomes malnourished, weakened, and even starved to death.

As such, illithids maintain slave populations, forcing them to mate and reproduce in order to obtain a sufficient source of labor and food.

Slaves, slave armies, and common illithids are nothing to fear.

The main brain controls all the illicit monsters, but they don't actually have a particularly strong strength themselves. As long as they can enter the brain pool where they are located, it is not difficult to kill them.

The real danger comes from those illithid elders!

There are not many super illithids with six tentacles, at least they are at the middle level of legend, and most of them are at the high level of legend.

The author of the Book of Strangeness speculates that the few illithid elders who resisted the will of the master mind may leave the city with a group of illithids, devour enough brains, and then transform themselves into new master minds and establish a brand new illithid society. group.

But most illithid elders are completely under the control of the mastermind and willingly serve the mastermind.

The larger the scale and the larger the population of the illithid community, the higher the probability of the birth of Saint-level powerhouses, which is the case with Elaentor.

But there is one thing, Holy Rank illithids are unique.

It is extremely unlikely that two holy-rank illithids will be born in a city. First, there are insufficient resources, and secondly, the main brain will not allow situations beyond its own control to occur.

Kuilu thought about it, "You can try, but only one chance."

What she means is that once the battle begins, the master mind will be alerted, and it will transmit the situation to all the illithids and protect the palace. Especially the holy rank spirit sucker who didn't know where he was, the master mind sensed Raistlin's purpose and would never let the holy rank powerhouse leave his side.

"One time is enough."

Raistlin nodded calmly, "I'll be in charge of drawing the Holy Spirit Attractor out of Elaentor. After it leaves, I'll open a portal and enter directly into the palace where the mastermind is located, Ms. Kuilu, you will take everyone with you. Enter the palace and kill the mastermind."

This method of adjusting the tiger away from the mountain is very simple, but it is also very effective.

The illithids are almost certain to be hit without knowing the enemy's target.

"it is good."

Kwai Lu readily agreed.

She is very confident in her own strength and is not afraid of fighting against a holy rank illithid, but it is better to avoid a head-on battle and minimize the risk.

Raistlin looked at his teammates, "Everyone, check your Mind Orb."

The illithids are natural psionicists, mastering a large number of psychic spells, and the most important thing to fight against them is to protect the mind. Previously, the team hunted the Balor Fire Demon. In order to avoid being controlled by the Baluo Fire Demon, Izt prepared a top-grade mind orb for everyone, and now it works again.

A superb mind orb, it can resist one ninth-level psychic spell, or three psychic attacks of the seventh and lower levels per day.

After the battle begins, Daunthos will bless everyone with the "psychic protection" magic, increasing the number of resistances by two times.

"I don't have to."

Kuilu smiled softly, the archmage has better protection spells.

Raistlin took out five azure gems from the Nebula Ring and handed them to his teammates, including Kwai Lu.

She took a look at it and said in surprise, "Transition gem?"

"Yes." Raistlin nodded and replied, "Take it, crush the gems if something goes wrong, teleport to my mirror, and leave Elaento. My mirror will keep track of the situation outside the city and help everyone. out of danger."

The value of the transition gems is high, and each one costs tens of thousands of gold shields.

There are many ways to use it. You can inject soul power in advance to form a teleportation rune, crush the gems and then teleport them. Ren used this method to enter Anser's tomb, bypassing the spatial isolation.

It can also be used in reverse, using the gems as coordinates to send the carrier to the specified location.

The space in the Underdark is unstable and cannot be teleported long distances, and the effective range of the transition gem has also been reduced a lot, but it is still no problem to teleport out of Elaine.

After using it last time, Ren deliberately collected more than a dozen transition gems, which finally came in handy.

Teammates are relieved to get the transition gems.

"Ms. Kuilu, please cover up my spell-casting fluctuations." Raistlin held the staff, and after Kuilu did as she was told, he started to activate the true mirroring technique on the "Stand of Endless Storm".

This tenth-level spell can only be cast once in seven days, takes one minute to cast, and consumes the mana equivalent of three ninth-level spells.

Seeing that he had cast the spell for half a minute, and the huge magic fluctuations had not subsided, Kuilu was shocked and lost his voice:

"Ten Ring Spells!"

She is a 25th-level archmage, and currently has mastered several ninth-level spells. She will not be able to start researching tenth-level spells until she is at level 30, which is still far away.

And Raistlin is just the pinnacle of legend...

Kuilu stared at Raistlin closely, her purple eyes fell on the staff in his hand, and she realized in her heart that this ten-level spell was attached to a legendary staff. Finally, a minute later, Raistlin's spellcasting was completed, and an identical Raistlin appeared.

"True Mirror Art!"

Kuilu saw it at a glance, then guessed the origin of the staff, and said with admiration: "It turned out to be 'Magic Storm, Endless Spellcaster'! You actually got Endless Storm, this is the staff that many spellcasters dream of owning. , where did you get it?"

The female drow's eyes flashed, and her beautiful face was full of envy.

She also has a legendary magic item, which is the "Silver Moon Robe" she wears. It has a lot of power, but it is mainly used for protection. Whether it is fame or power, it is far inferior to the endless storm.

"I paid a huge price for it, ma'am." Raistlin expressed his meaning vaguely.

Kuilu immediately understood and smiled, "Don't worry, I won't rob you of your staff."

The duration of True Mirror Image is one hour.

Raistlin didn't want to waste time, so the real image nodded to the crowd, triggering the rainbow cloak to disappear.

True Mirror returns along the same path in stealth.

He kept flashing, and it took only two minutes to return to the gray dwarf mine a few miles away in Elaentor. Unleash exploratory searches everywhere.

Raistlin's true mirror image quietly lifted the rainbow cloak and instantly replaced it with the five-ring invisibility technique.

Then, standing in a corner of the mine, he glanced at the illithids.

The spirit feast suddenly turned around.

It made a mind jump to get closer to the real image, and without hesitation, it raised its hand and cast a spell instantly.

Psionic shockwave!

Snapped!

A burst of invisible spiritual power spread out like lightning, with a double attack of spirit and substance, covering a fan-shaped area with a length of tens of meters.

The real mirror image is exposed.

The four tentacles of the illithid twitched in unison, and the gray pupils were filled with aura, and they were quite excited, as if they had won a game of patience and finally tracked down their prey.

It reacts extremely quickly, and its mind locks onto Raistlin's true mirror image with a fingertip.

Mind blowing!

This is the best killer move of the illithids, and almost all the illithids put in a lot of time and effort to master it. Mind Blast is a five-level spell, which produces a strong mental shock in an instant, directly into the soul of the enemy.

It is a legendary first-level, which has raised Mind Blast to the sixth level, and is one of the most proficient Mind Blast illithids even in Elaentor.

But in the next moment, its eyes froze.

Mind Blast hit the opposite human, but it was like a breeze, without any effect. The result of the head bursting in the imagination did not appear, and it did not even interrupt the opponent's spellcasting.

A dark green ray responded to Mind Blast.

Dissociation!

A layer of transparent psionic shield appeared outside the illithid monster, and at the same time, it waved and summoned a smooth mirror to block in front of it, deflecting the dissociation ray.

The illithids behind the mirror disappeared.

It realized that the human spellcaster was powerful and far superior to itself, and immediately decided to run away. It teleports to the other side of the mine using teleportation, but when it completes the jump, it finds that the enemy is gone too.

Before it could find the enemy, it sensed the magic fluctuations above its head.

The illithid monster has a global vision, and you can see the situation from all angles without turning your head. A huge fist condenses and slaps it down.

Bigby catches the palm!

In danger, the illithids remained calm, and cast their second-best spell at the fastest speed, summoning the astral guards.

This spell cannot be instant like Mind Blast, but it can be done in just half a breath. The Astral Guard is a powerful monster summoned from the Astral Realm. Its tall body is extremely tough and powerful, comparable to a storm. A giant, enough to block the huge palm above his head.

However, its spell was interrupted.

A sense of time and space disorder caused the summoning of the star guards to fail, and it was too late for the mind to jump.

In the stunned eyes of the illithids, the giant palm slapped down.

With a loud bang, the entire mine trembled, and the illithid monster was slapped to the ground and fell into a stone pit. The giant palm grabbed it smoothly, held the dizzy psychic monster in the palm of his hand, exerted force, and instantly burst its psychic shield.

Snapped!

A mass of flesh and blood mud flowed out between the fingers of the giant palm.

Only then did the gray dwarf slaves in the mine realize what had happened. When they saw Raistlin's mirror image, they screamed in horror, and they threw down their hoeing tools and fled in all directions.

The True Mirror did not hunt down the grey dwarves, allowing them to escape.

He pretended not to know that the illithids had passed on to the mastermind what they had experienced before they died, and searched the corpse.

In the city of Elaentor, almost at the same time that the real image was discovered by the illithids, the palace sent out a burst of spiritual screams. At the upper level of the rift valley of the city, more than a dozen illithids appeared, flashing rapidly in mid-air, jumping into the tunnel again and again, and rushing towards the mine.

Raistlin and his teammates hid in the cave, secretly observing the movement of the city.

"They have passed." Kuilu whispered.

"hold on."

Raistlin shook his head slowly, he didn't sense the aura of the Holy-Order Psychic.

Among the more than a dozen spirit illithids rushing to the mine, there were two elders, both of which were legendary high-rankers, but they were still far from the holy rank.

With the strength shown by the real mirror image, the main brain will not immediately send out a saint-level powerhouse.

After a few minutes.

The first illithid arrived at the mine, saw the real image in the distance, and immediately cast a spell attack.

It was only a high-level psionicist, and it arrived the fastest because of its proximity. Raistlin's true mirror image allowed it to unleash a mind blast at himself, shoot a few spears of light at random, and exploded the shield within a second. Fried its body into minced meat.

The scene where the real image killed the high-level illithid monster was seen by several illithid monsters who arrived later.

Immediately, they spread out to attack the enemy.

The real image frowned, as if he did not expect so many illithids to come, but he was not afraid and summoned twelve images to fight.

Spells radiate from the mines, and psionic, arcane, and fire light blooms.

Blast, cut, bind, counter!

Various spell effects flooded this space, and the mine vibrated violently, with signs of collapse.

After this spell battle began, the illithids discovered that something was wrong. This human wizard seemed to be immune to mental spells, and the various mental attacks they released were completely ineffective. His mirror images are also very unique. Each mirror image has self-awareness, which is not much worse than the strength of the main body.

Fifteen spirit illithids faced twelve mirror images, and there were three more, and there was no way to fight back.

Less than half a minute.

Most of the illithids died, and only two illithid elders and three middle-level legends were still alive, while the mirror image did not decrease.

They were surrounded by twelve mirror images, struggling to support them, and they were about to be wiped out.

All this information is passed to the master mind.

Of course, Raistlin's body also knew the battle situation very well.

In the city of Elaento, a terrifying and tyrannical aura suddenly appeared, covering the entire rift valley overwhelmingly, and all the tens of thousands of slaves in the city were lying on the ground, shivering.

"Holy rank spirit **** monsters!"

Raistlin, Kwai Lu, and their teammates, who were hiding in the cave, looked solemn, and at the same time, they were also a little bit happy.

The dispatch of the Holy Order Spirit Void also means that the opportunity is coming.

The real mirror image in the mine immediately left the battle and fled with six mirror images, and the remaining six mirror images continued to attack the three legendary illithids that were still alive. After leaving the mine, the six mirror images scattered and fled, choosing different directions and leaving waves along the way.

The real image did not escape too far, restrained its breath, and hid in a cave with a rainbow cloak.

Not long after they left, the Holy Order illithids arrived.

The six mirror images left in the mine saw a terrifying illithid, taller than the elder illithid, whose thin body exuded vast psychic energy, almost condensed into substance, suffocating.

The battle in the mine has begun.

The six mirror images had almost no resistance in the face of the Holy Ghost. The will of truth only allowed the mirror images to last longer, and a mirror image was killed within a few seconds.

Taking advantage of the mirror image to hold the holy-order spirit sucker, Raistlin nodded slightly to everyone, first summoned twelve mirror images, and then began to cast spells.

A few seconds later, a portal appeared in front of him.

The opposite of the portal was the palace. Kuilu passed through it for the first time. The teammates entered without hesitation, and Raistlin's twelve mirror images quickly followed.

The palace is extremely empty, with thousands of square meters.

The surrounding light was dim and the air was humid, like a beast's lair, and Raistlin could faintly smell the smell of sea water. The Voice of All Things did not hear a single sound, the palace was deadly silent, and the only building was the huge pool in the middle of the ground.

The diameter of the circular pool is more than fifty meters, and it is filled with liquid, like a small lake.

The lake was deep and glowed bright blue-violet.

Brain Pool!

Raistlin was refreshed, and the book of strange things recorded that the master brain of an illithid must be immersed in the brain pool in order to survive.

Kuilu held a silver sword and flashed to the edge of her brain.

Teammates gathered around.

Raistlin also flashed to the edge of the pool for the first time, and when he looked down, he was stunned. He thought about many possibilities, such as the master brain is very powerful, or there are many illithids guarding around the brain pool, setting up a protective magic circle, etc., but never thought of such a situation.

The brain is empty, there is nothing!

Even according to the book of strangeness, the offspring of illithids are cultivated in the brain pool, and the larvae of tadpoles look like tadpoles. There are hundreds of thousands of them, and there is not even one.

Raistlin's eyes were full of astonishment, thinking that he was wrong.

However, with the all-seeing eye and the soul's eye plus the will of truth and the key to the door, there is almost nothing that can be hidden or disguised in front of his eyes. He looked at the dancing girl of the moon and found that the archmage was equally stunned. Obviously , she also did not find the mastermind.

"Where's the mastermind?" Izzet asked in shock.

The teammates also searched everywhere, using various means to search the palace, but found nothing.

Raistlin and the Twelve Mirrors searched the palace and found nothing.

He sensed that in the mine, four of the six mirror images had been eliminated, and only two were still delaying time, but the strange thing was that the holy-order phantom didn't seem to be summoned by the main brain, and it was still unhurried. Fight with mirrors.

wrong!

Raistlin suddenly came to his senses. It was probably not that the Holy-Order Soul Flayer didn't know that someone had invaded the palace, but that it was very aware of the situation in the palace, so it was not in a hurry to come back to rescue.

It is impossible for Elaento to have no mastermind, otherwise the illithids in the city would have disintegrated long ago.

The main brain cannot easily leave the cistern and has a very limited range of motion.

It must be in this palace!

But why can't you see it? The illithid master didn't attack himself or his teammates either...

Suddenly ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Raistlin's heart trembled and his pupils contracted violently.

He had experienced this situation before, but it was not Raistlin, but Ren's experience. In that little plane without a name, it was the most terrifying battle he had ever encountered in his life. It was like a nightmare, and he would never forget it for the rest of his life. .

Time jump!

The mastermind has entered the time jump!

A terrible name came up in Raistlin's mind, making his soul tremble. Even if he wasn't the person he thought, he was definitely not an opponent.

"escape!"

Raistlin shouted, "Crush the jumping treasure..."

Before he finished shouting, a figure appeared on the water in the brain pool. Everyone didn't even have time to see the other party's appearance. The moment the other party appeared, the time in the palace stopped.
