The Swordsman of Faerûn

William looked apologetically at the mad Tuermu. To be honest, he was also very helpless. How could we know why such a small matter would stimulate you so much?If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't say it.

He stepped forward and patted Turmu's back, and apologized: "Dude! Don't be too sad! Actually, I don't know if I can really live that long, maybe it was just a joke of the monster back then That's all."

Tuermu didn't care about his master's reassurance, and just vented his despair and remorse for a while. He suddenly sat up and said solemnly to William: "Master! You need more servants! You need to recruit more servants." There are so many giant spirits, and even become the emperor of the giant spirit family! No! You are the emperor of the giant spirit family, and any usurper who cannot voluntarily submit to your feet is not qualified to live in this world at all!"

William was taken aback, what happened to this guy, his brain was smashed, right?He looked suspiciously at Turmu, who had a firm expression on his face, and asked a little worried: "Tulmu, what's wrong with you? Are you not clear-headed?"

Tuermu resolutely said: "I'm not crazy! Master! Now my mind is clearer than ever! I will conquer all the giant spirits for you, and let those guys experience the 3000-year love of the master for themselves! 3000 years!"

Poor Huo Djinn elder, while gritting his teeth and speaking righteously, the last line of pure tears flowed from the corner of his eyes.

William finally understood what this guy was thinking. He wanted to pull all the same kind into the water, and let everyone experience the "happiness" of being a slave for 3000 years!

Pooh!It's so fucking dark!

However, it looks like fun!

The sky is burning, and the earth is boiling, not only the flame titan Mutras, but also a group of fire-type powerhouses including the flaming red dragon Barmentergen, the six-armed snake demon Jitabis, and the fire elemental elder Gunter. Those who are not inferior to them, and many strong ones who are not inferior to them, have also passed through the gate of flames to the howling arena of the goblins.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Walking on the avenue paved with marble slabs, William couldn't help feeling a sense of ruin and beauty.The reason why he felt this emotion was because the buildings and environment in the core area of ​​Calimport were so beautiful.

The buildings here are all made of fine marble and sapphire, decorated with large crystals and precious stones, supplemented by exquisite sculptures and murals, and various pavilions and terraces are surrounded by countless flowers and fruit trees. , crystal agate-like grapes hang on the pergola dripping with dew, golden cantaloupe and dark red candied dates can be picked by hand, as well as clear emerald-like fruit (similar to green apples), and a coconut as big as a bucket. , the clear stream beside the fruit trees is like a stream, gurgling with icy water, it is scorching hot outside the city, but inside Misuo in the core area, it is as warm and cool as spring, and as rich as autumn.

This place is like God's Garden of Eden, Allah's Shangri-la, with handsome people wearing loose silk and velvet robes, arguing on the street, wandering under the fruit trees, picking a fruit when hungry, and taking a sip from the stream when thirsty When Qingshui is happy, he sings a beautiful song, when he is sad, he recites a tragic poem like no one else, and then weeps heartily.

No one paid attention to William who suddenly appeared, and they hardly cared about the changes in the distant arena. Perhaps thousands of years of peace made them lose their awareness of the crisis.

The power beyond the space limit directly broke the enchantment of the arena, allowing this building to return to the main material plane.At least one-third of the weak fire creatures turned into a pool of ashes because they couldn't bear the changes in the world's rules.

Of course, more monsters still alive poured out of the big arena. They subconsciously divided into countless small branches and broke into the core area of ​​Calimport. The fruit trees were burned to ashes, the streams dried up into ditches, and life howled in the flames.There is no mercy, no tolerance, only the fierce flame of destruction burning.

Surprisingly, the residents of the core area of ​​Calimport are not good-natured people. Anyone who encounters the vanguard of the flame army basically has good strength. Many fire-type monsters not only did not kill the target, On the contrary, there are many cases of anti-killing, which also exposed the details of these guys.

Little djinn, djinn, doppelgangers, devils, angels, dragons, and a few guys who can't be named are all swindling and deceiving in the core area of ​​Calimport wearing a human skin. I didn't see a real purebred human being.

They all possess great strength, but it is difficult for them to resist the tide of the flame army.Whether it is a devil, an angel, or a giant dragon, or an unknown terrifying existence, they killed two or ten monsters, but there are still twenty or thirty fire monsters still rushing up one after another, so These poor guys could only be outnumbered, and in the end they were all besieged by hordes of flame monsters on the spot.

Not to mention the weaker elves and shapeshifters.

In fact, the most pitiful thing is the giant dwarf. As soon as these guys show their bodies, there will be a powerful and excessive elder of the giant dwarf who rushes up to bully the younger with no martial arts ethics. After the "intimate communication", these bruised and swollen genies will be controlled by a special method of imprisoning the upper genies and become sad captives.

After getting together a dozen wind djinn, the elder fire djinn pushed them into a row, then slapped each of them a few times, forced them with a loathsome sword and asked them viciously, "Would you like to surrender? Will you surrender?" Unwilling to voluntarily submit to the invincible Lord of Fire, Princess William?"

If the djinn dared to refuse, Turmu would mercilessly hack him to death. In the beginning, these younger djinns had relatively hard bones, and they refused very simply.However, after Turmu hacked to death nine djinn in a row, the remaining three slightly older djinn were completely scared out of their wits.

They handed over their precious markers very sincerely, and voluntarily completed the surrender ceremony under the witness of the elder of the fire djinn, so before he knew it, William gained three less powerful thugs ( relative to Turmo).

Of course, William has no time to pay attention to this, and he will not cherish the beautiful and beautiful core city that has been destroyed, because everything here is not for decent human beings to enjoy, especially when he sees those well-dressed, After the handsome guy turned into a guy who was no longer human, he completely let go of the last trace of worry in his heart.

He has only one thought, and that is to completely destroy this sinful land parasitized on the flesh and blood of countless human beings.When a certain devil or angel is too powerful, William will always take a cold shot and hand him a knife, letting these guys sleep on the ground, the kind of eternal sleep.

After he cut off the prickly head of an overpowering scorpion dragon (a desert dragon species), he stopped paying attention to those street battles. He had found his destination, the one entrusted by the Queen of Machines. , to name the location of the target he was asked to rescue.

The actual ruler of Calimport, the Grand Vizier, the wise man of the Djinn—the mansion of Dudera, is a beautiful building called a city within a city. If you ignore the real location of this building, when you look at When you get to it, you will think that this is a real cloud city.

The foundation of the whole mansion is made of ivory-colored marble splicing and carving, and the buildings on it are hollowed out with gold, precious stones, silver, sapphire, and other precious materials. When the breeze blows, it seems to flutter and tremble. a feeling of.

When William stepped into this mansion, the first smell he smelled, and hearing the voices rising and falling inside, he couldn't help feeling a sense of disgust in his heart.

The interior of the Grand Vizier's mansion is also extravagant and unreal. All kinds of rare treasures can be seen everywhere, wine pools and meat forests, milk baths, mountains of melons and fruits, beautiful women like clouds, and handsome men like rain. The key is that these men and women are having sex in the open air—— Cover-no-shame meeting.

Although William is a bit playful, a bit lecherous, and sometimes it is not very authentic to do certain shameless things, but his heart is still a relatively traditional Chinese old man, and a large group of people like this perform live The weird scene is simply provoking his psychological bottom line to the greatest extent.He kicked away a few men and women who crawled up from the ground. Even though they were hurt, they didn't feel pain. Even a man hit his head on the stone edge, and blood protruded profusely. Turn a blind eye, just blindly carry out some kind of instinctive activities with the female partner next to him.

These men and women are no longer real people, they are just a group of moving flesh, a group of ignorant and depraved living dead.

When a lazy and bold woman like a cat appeared in William's line of sight surrounded by a group of male servants with different postures, he suddenly realized that he shouldn't have come in with eyes, otherwise it would be better to pick them off , because that picture really pollutes the soul.

William finally understood the true meaning of this magic den that was aimed at him.If he hadn't crossed the Baodan threshold in advance, he could barely control the endocrine of the body; if he hadn't completed the advanced level of the fire lord, he would have eliminated all the side effects of the blood of fire, and even some of the emotions of being a human being Everything has become as light as a cloud of smoke, I am afraid that he has already sunk and fallen into this vicious trap and cannot extricate himself.

But William still could hardly resist the fatal allure of that cat-like woman, which was not at all the terrifying charm that mortals and even supernatural beings should have.He had no choice but to open his own soul vision, using a special vision to shield the opponent's terrifying power.

It cannot be said that this method has no effect, but it is only a temporary quenching of thirst by drinking poison.The soul essence of that cat-like woman still made William's heart tremble terribly. Under the special vision, he could clearly see countless black silk threads gushing out from the depths of the woman's indescribable soul, respectively winding around the mansion. Every fallen person in the world, their souls have long been dilapidated, as fragile as a candle that is about to be extinguished in a strong wind.

And more silk threads surround the woman, constantly swaggering at him, attracting his soul instinct.

This cat-like woman is definitely not a mortal. William felt a certain quality from her that was similar to that of Ibrando, the god of the cave. This cat is also a saint.

At this time, William was in a daze.

Didn't we just have a bit more vigor before?Don't you just like to do some intimate exchanges with beautiful things?Isn't it just that the hidden dangers of blood vessels in the early stage are a bit big?Isn't it just that I did some inappropriate activities with a certain Meilong two days ago?You said you shameless old guys, as for calculating such a small role like me?

The perspective of the soul does not seem very safe. In desperation, William had to completely close his five senses, and only relied on his own spiritual sense to deal with changes from the outside world.

The woman who looked more like a cat than a person, or the female saint, couldn't help drooling when she saw William for the first time. She didn't hesitate to push away the servants around her, swaying With an infinitely beautiful figure, she walked towards William with lazy steps.

Maybe she was too confident in her own charm, even though William had already closed his eyes and held the knife in his hand, the female saint still came up regardless, she believed that even without the help of visual influence, her own breath.My own voice, and even my own touch after a while, can still subdue this superb little cutie.

When the female saint was only three steps away from the target, she breathed out like a blue breath, covering William's face, and then she laughed "giggle", as if a hundred flowers suddenly bloomed in early spring, which made people feel inexplicable Joy and joy.

William couldn't help but tremble, but he raised his hand and stabbed the woman's neck with a knife.He opened his eyes, and saw an infinitely charming head slipping from the pink body, rolling several times on the ground with an expression of disbelief.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The female saint's head rolled on the ground several times, but she didn't die like Ibrando did back then, and she was still able to speak.

"Honey, I can feel the hesitation and anxiety in your heart, why not let go of all the shackles and enjoy the joy of this moment!" Her voice is so special, like a light cat whispering in a lazy spring day. The thin meow made William feel as if the tip of his heart was brushed by soft fur or velvet, it was very itchy.

He retreated abruptly, and jumped out of the Grand Vizier's mansion in a few vertical leaps. There was no way, William was really afraid of being distorted by this terrifying beauty. This world is so unreasonable, especially some gods and monsters. weird stuff.

However, this did not mean that William let it go. He casually called a group of flame dwarves who were wreaking havoc not far away, and ordered them to rush into the Grand Vizier's mansion and reduce everything inside to ashes.Flame dwarves are constructed life formed by a fire dwarf casting master using bronze to form a body, and then the caster injects a portion of its life fire. They will not be affected by any sensory flesh-and-desire-desire influences. (A fire dwarf is a flame creature transformed from a normal dwarf a long time ago by a powerful fire element)

William continued to parade on the street. He collected those delicious fruits and vegetables with great interest, stored them in the Fire Spirit Armband, and occasionally took action to solve one or two (compared to the flame army) that were more difficult. A stabbing rebel who looks very laid back.

But soon William frowned. He felt that there were two terrible threats coming from the north and the east. The suffocating sense of oppression was almost maddening.

Without hesitation, he jumped up and flew straight to Turmu, who was fighting in waves, and shouted: "Old Tu! Run!" Then William didn't care whether Turmu understood what he meant, and launched the [ Rocket Flight], rushed to the outside of Calimport at the fastest speed, and found Kelben Olosan who was waiting on the hill.

William shouted impatiently: "Mr. Kelben! Quick! Get me out of here!"

Kelben looked at the core area of ​​Calimport that was being swallowed by raging flames with a tangled expression, and sighed: "Mr. William, you have caused a bit of trouble this time! It's a pity that those things that have been around for thousands of years Aristocratic families, many of them should be innocent."

William sneered, but he didn't bother arguing with Kelben. Your fucking class ass is crooked. I spent so much time trying to argue with you, but he didn't mind it, and replied casually: : "I hacked around inside, but I didn't see a real human being, just some weird races, wearing human skins to pretend to be good people, and chopping off a full stomach of male whores—female thieves. "

Although Kelben was extremely intelligent, he still couldn't understand the metaphors in William's words. He asked in surprise, "Mr. William, are you sure there isn't a single normal human being in the Pasha area (core area) of Calimport?"

William said: "Of course, I have verified it myself. Only the Grand Vizier's mansion has a group of guys who originally belonged to humans, but they were harmed by a terrible evil thing, and they are almost no different from the walking dead. "

Kelben sighed and said, "So that's it! If my guess is correct, the upper class of Calimport should be pure human beings except for one great Pasha, and the others may have been replaced with aliens. William Sir, I want to ask you to do something big."

William shook his head like a rattle, and quickly refused: "Don't! I don't have time to do your big things. I still have a lot of bad things to solve! If possible, please hurry up Send me away! I feel a great crisis is approaching."

Kelben glanced regretfully at the highest building in Calimport. It was the exclusive palace belonging to the Great Pasha. From a distance, countless torrents of flames could be seen. It became fireworks that shot into the sky, because a powerful wind djinn was resisting.

Mr. Black Rod opened the portal unhurriedly. He took a last look at Calimport (the core area) in flames. When he turned his head, he saw smoke and clouds billowing in the northern sky, roaring towards this side with a murderous aura.Kelben Olosan's complexion changed drastically immediately, and he hurriedly shouted at the already anxious William: "No! It's the howling army of the djinn! Let's go!"

Before Olosan finished speaking, William had already plunged his head into the portal. Just as Mr. Black Stick was about to step into the portal, he turned his head and saw that the eastern sea horizon was covered by overwhelming black clouds and tsunamis. As he approached rapidly, his face immediately turned pale, and he jumped into the transmission channel as if fleeing.

The landing point of the teleportation channel is on the edge of a wide river, and a large sailing ship is moored on the shore. Originally, Kelben Olosan’s plan was that they would go directly to the sea here, and then go north along the sea route. Go to Waterdeep.

But at this moment, Kelben changed his plan without hesitation. He didn't even say hello to the people on the galleon, but just sent them a magic message, and directly opened the second portal, and then the third. send...

Mr. Kelben Olosan vividly showed William how powerful an orthodox top mage is. He actually ignored the side effects of the teleportation spell and opened more than a dozen teleportations along the way. It took less than a morning In time, he took William directly to Waterdeep City (the voters of the goddess of magic are so arrogant).

William didn't receive much preferential treatment in Waterdeep City, and Mr. Black Rod arranged for him to live temporarily in a tavern called Mermaid's Arm.This is not a high-end place, it can even be said to be mediocre.Thanks to the prosperity of the city, almost every street corner in Waterdeep City has a tavern, and Mermaid Arm is a very inconspicuous one among the many taverns.

The furnishings inside the Mermaid Arm are ordinary, the air is full of smoke from burning tobacco, and the smell of not-so-fresh ale.There are strong adventurers, battle-hardened warriors, vulgar and drunken sailors, and, of course, heavy-waisted wine maids.

A few drunken sailors fell face down on the floor, or sat against a wall, while others stumbled and spilled wine, usually on sober customers, who responded by taking the spilled wine People are pushed to the floor, which usually leads to a small commotion.

In such a noisy and chaotic environment, William's appearance was not noticeable. People just gave him a few cold glances and enjoyed their own happiness.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Although free board and lodging is still very good, but William prefers to enjoy something better, of course, the premise is that he has money.

Although Wan Guan's private wealth from his concubine is not around, William is not in Calimport and has nothing to gain.

After all, Calimport is an ancient city that has prospered for nearly ten thousand years. It has a profound heritage, especially the luxury in the core area. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is full of treasures.Even though he didn't specifically collect property, but just picked up a few inconspicuous small objects, they were all valuable goods, not to mention that he also collected a lot of high-level equipment as trophies.

William wants to find a place that can deal with the backlog in his hand. In a place like Mermaid Arm, where dragons and snakes are mixed, the bartender is undoubtedly one of the most well-informed characters. He must know where or who can eat the next batch. special cargo.

William leaned over to the bartender who was wiping the glass. The bartender knew this young foreigner who had been specially arranged to live here by a certain big shot. He didn't stop his work, but just said casually: "Hello, young friend. Yes Is there anything I can do for you?" Although he was not very satisfied with the young man's free food and drink, the bartender still reserved his courtesy respect for William.

William smiled indifferently, and then said softly: "Mr. Bartender deals with all kinds of people here every day. You should know a lot of special people, right?"

The bartender stopped wiping the glass, frowned and asked, "Sir, what exactly are you trying to say?"

William smiled and said, "It's like this. I have a batch of things with special origins in my hand. Well, some specialties from the south. I want to find someone to sell them. I wonder if the bartender has any connections?"

The bartender was really interested this time. He put down his glass and asked curiously, "What goods do you have? If it's not too tricky, I should be able to eat them myself."

William covered his arms with his robe, pretending to be groping for something under his armpit, and took out a palm-sized gold ornament from the Fire Spirit's armband.This is a pendant from a powerful angel. Of course, the owner of the pendant was killed by a guy who doesn't speak martial arts A sudden attack and beheaded.

The style of the pendant is a female angel embraced by wings (actually, angels have no gender, unless they are about to fall). When the bartender saw this golden angel ornament, his eyes almost popped out.If it wasn't for his special origin, he would definitely not be able to recognize the origin of this strange object.

Golden Embrace of the Fallen - A magical item from the opposite side of Mount Paradise, when you are dying of wounds, hold on to it and it will heal your wounds.With each use of this trinket's magical effects, your mind grows wilder (away from order, towards chaos).

The bartender felt that his throat was a little dry, and he wanted to grab the pendant to take a closer look, but William avoided it.The bartender said a little uncertainly: "Where did you get this thing? If it's real, I'm afraid even if I sell my tavern, it won't be worth the value of this treasure."

William picked the corner of his eyes and said with a smile: "I don't want your tavern, what can I use it for, can I be a bartender like you? My friend, I want to know how much cash you can spend to buy this item?"

The bartender feels insulted, you can insult me ​​as a person, but you can't insult the profession of a bartender, of course, if you are a rich guy, that's a different story.He deliberately counted his savings with his fingers, and then laughed: "I have 740 gold reals in cash, and if you can give me a few days to raise funds, I can raise another [-] to [-] The payment of Jinlier. Of course, the premise is that this strange thing of yours is real." (Kinlier, one of the currency units unique to Waterdeep and recognized in the Sword Coast region, its subordinate currency units include silver healy, copper Biling.)

William threw the pendant to the bartender without hesitation, and said, "Take out your cash first, I need it urgently now. You can give me the rest in a few days."

The bartender stared blankly at the pendant in his hand. When he held it tightly, he felt that his thoughts suddenly became active and uncontrollable, like a runaway pony, so mischievous and fascinating.He looked up at William in surprise, and said, "This is a real guy! Where did you get this strange object? It is a very rare treasure from another world."

William shrugged and said with a smile: "Of course this is a real guy. I just killed a winged birdman not long ago, and then I picked this thing off his head myself."

The bartender felt that William was bragging, and he said: "You are joking! Sir. An angel with this thing can easily defeat a dozen of the most powerful fighters. You would never touch a single hair of such an angel in a hundred."

William shook his head and said, "Haha! Just think I'm joking! Now, hurry up and get the money."

The bartender looked at the angel pendant in his hand reluctantly, then handed it back to William, and at the same time said with a complicated expression: "I can't afford such an expensive strange thing, even if I take out all the money, I can't afford it." It’s not worth one-tenth of her value. But if you really want to sell, I can introduce you to a rich friend who likes to collect such valuable treasures the most.”

William did not retrieve the pendant, but asked curiously, "Who are you talking about?"

The bartender took a deep breath and said, "Nani Whistle, a reliable adventurer and wealthy mage. He is building his own tower in the coastal area. Nanny is a generous guy, and he will give you a reasonable price. Price. I can take you to him right now if you want."

William shook his head and said, "I don't have that much time, so give me all your cash now."

The bartender said in embarrassment: "But, I don't have that many..."

William smiled and said: "If you feel sorry, wait until you have collected enough money, or go to the generous mage yourself, and give half of the money sold to Mr. Kelben Olosan, he knows how to deal with these money."

The bartender finally smiled, and he said: "It turns out that you and Mr. Hei Zhang are friends! Well, I know what to do. Please believe me, I will sell your treasure for a good price. You wait Wait a minute, I'll fetch some Jinlier for you, I don't know how much you need?"

William said: "Give me as much as you have, I need to make a big purchase for a long trip."

The bartender turned and went to the storage room, and he came back after a while, carrying a leather bag, every time the bartender took a step, there was a rattling sound in the bag.

He handed the bag to William, and said: "Count I lent you, there are [-] Glory Coins (another name for Jinlier, because Waterdeep City is also called Glory City), which should be enough for you to make a wealthy purchase." .”

William nodded, and walked out of the tavern with the bag in hand, leaving only the bartender holding the gold pendant in a daze.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

There are not only honest and reliable bartenders in the tavern, but also dark-minded rats. When William left with the bag of money, many guys' eyes were already wandering on him, most of them were fierce and greedy.

However, there are very few people who really put their ideas into action. Only a halfling hiding in a corner chased after William's tail. After all, the defenders of order in Waterdeep City are not vegetarians, unless there are outsiders blindly Be stupid, the local dark forces rarely dare to commit crimes blatantly.

William didn't care about those unfriendly gazes, and he didn't have the heart to engage in tricks such as fishing, law enforcement, and anti-violence on the family's one-acre land. William really wanted to purchase more supplies, because he already had a certain premonition .

Walking on the streets of Waterdeep City, surrounded by pedestrians, most of them are coolies and sailors, carrying goods collected from all over the city to Waterdeep City on their shoulders, as well as those sent from Waterdeep City to The goods from all over the country were followed by indispensable cargo owners and merchants, who either looked anxious or had a bad attitude and yelled at the crude laborers.There are also densely packed shops on the street, some selling fish, some selling clothing and fur, some selling tobacco, some selling swords and weapons, some selling non-staple food and drinks, and there are also grocery stores that sell a little bit of odds and ends.

William first went to a shop selling ready-made clothing and furs, which was run by a few half-elves.Ready-made clothes are very expensive, and even the cheapest linen singlet costs two gold reals.

According to the conversion of the local currency unit, one gold liel is equal to twelve silver healys, one silver healy is equal to 21 copper pehrings, and a normal coolie can earn five to seven silver healys for a day of hard work. Silver Healey could buy at most three pounds of hard bread (the daily minimum subsistence standard for a coolie).

Of course, William would not buy those cheap and low-quality ready-made clothes. What he fell in love with was the soft, breathable, beautiful and decent boutique made of delicate silk velvet fabrics. However, after asking the price, William was a little embarrassed, because he never The money he borrowed from the bartender was only enough to buy a green elf cloak, and he wanted to equip each of his family members with such a good thing that was warm in winter and cool in summer and could adapt to body size.

The green elf cloak is a garment made of green elf silk flannelette from the highest forest. This kind of silk flannel is very expensive, and the price of each ping is nearly five hundred gold liels. A unit of measurement for silk flannelette, because this kind of fabric is piece by piece, it looks natural (it is estimated to be related to the processing technology), one piece by ping, and the amount of each piece is just enough to be processed into a cloak or a magic blanket.

In fact, human tailors can only make cloaks and magic carpets from elf silk, and only moon elves know how to make delicate silk clothes from them.Of course, some knowledgeable spellcasters among humans may know how to decipher the secrets of the moon elves, but they are too lazy to get such thankless things. Just get some magic potions and scrolls, and you can’t earn much more than this thing , and save time and effort.

This is like if you use your brain to study technology and decipher how to make gold into a gold bracelet, you can increase the value of a single gram of gold by 50.00%.And if you use your own ability, just pull out a grass on the side of the road and rub it together, it will be a panacea that is priced like gold.

As a normal person, which one would you choose as your way to get rich, brains or hands?
