"It's a pity that you and your people were too cautious, and actually stopped me at the door. But fortunately, when those idiots saw my appearance, my plan was more than half successful. Just let me Unexpectedly, you actually walked out of the camp alive while protecting your little maid."

Whether it was Baird, the dwarf, Shevar Starcloak, or Bonogg the dwarf and his companions, they couldn't help but be horrified by the vicious scheme of the skinchanger standing behind the wall.

Sure enough, "Every skinchanger deserves to die [-] times" is a famous saying left by our ancestors.

William smiled and said: "Pseudo-Maya, thank you for your explanation. As a reward, I will also give you a life-saving message. Run away quickly, and use your fastest speed to stay away from this land! It's coming!"

Shapeshifting Maya thinks that the new lord named William is a fool, or maybe there is something wrong with his brain. After hearing her inside information, most people will either fall into incompetent rage, or be at a loss in panic. How can they say with a smirk? Nonsense, bragging is not the way of bragging.

The deformed monster was thinking of mocking this stupid lord with a problem in his mind, but he didn't want her to look up, but he was stupid.

A huge flame gate was opened out of thin air above the town of Dagger Falls, and then countless flame monsters flew out of it.

The first ones to fly out were swarms of fire mephits, which occupied every commanding height of the town like locusts, using their wings and eyes to bring the vision of the whole town under their control.Then a group of heavy armored dragons flew out. They had wings similar to giant dragons, but they could only be used to glide.

There is nearly a squadron of nearly ten dozen powerful fire dragons. They have a giant-like physique and excellent equipment, and they are veritable meat grinders on the battlefield.These Huolong people did not fall into the town, but came to the edge of the town's wall, opened the warning distance and surrounded the whole town.

I believe that there will not be anyone who will foolishly break into the defense line formed by the fire dragons, whether it is someone who wants to go in or someone who wants to come out, including some monsters.

When the fire dragons completed their line of defense, fire boys began to spew out frantically from the gate of flames, densely packed like throwing shrimp larvae into a pond.

Waterfall Town, which has been soaked by floods, is not the environment that Huotong likes. It is dirty and smelly, wet and full of silt and dead branches and leaves. There is even a relatively rare silt monster, which is a close relative of the ooze monster. .

The fire boys were squeezed by their companions and fell into the mud, then angrily ignited everything around them that could be ignited, and then were squeezed by more companions into countless flames.Many fire boys wanted to escape from Falls Town, but were driven back by the fire dragons wielding large shields and axes. Of course, many of them were brutally beaten into sparks by the fire dragons.

Almost in the blink of an eye, a fire ignited soaring into the sky in Waterfall Town. Many fire boys wanted to ride the flames back to the other end of the gate of flames, but unfortunately, a group of natural enemies of the fire boys——flaming griffins flew from inside. When they came out, they hovered above the flames, and any fire boy who wanted to take the opportunity to escape could not escape their sharp claws.

At this moment, some people or non-humans were stunned by this unbelievable scene of arson.

The monster who turned into Maya couldn't keep her calm anymore, and neither could she, because the deadly flames had begun to spread on her body. It's not like she didn't think about escaping from the town, and she even took action .

It's a pity that the Fire Dragon, who showed his talents in front of their lord for the first time, smashed this stupid shapeshifter back into the town without hesitation.

The fire dragons need a target of allegiance, which is the racial characteristic, or curse, given to them by the supreme leader of ten thousand dragons.

The flames dried up the mud on the street, and killed all the ooze monsters and many small creatures from the water. Even all the buildings on the ground were burned to ashes, and those stone buildings were also burnt red and shining.

I don't know which fire boy found the passage leading to the underground by accident, and then it and its countless companions poured into the more wet and muddy underground.

With the help of the cursefire energy emitted, William's "sight" followed the footsteps of the fire boys into the legendary dungeon.

It is often said that under any prosperous town, there will be an even more prosperous underground city.In the past, William thought it was just a metaphor, used to describe the opposite coexistence of a city's dark side and its bright side.

But today William realized that this was not a metaphor, but a real description of reality.

The underground city of Dagger Falls Town has wider and smoother streets than the above-ground towns. Although it is more humid than the ground, it is not messy, there is no smelly mud, and there are no messy dead branches and leaves. Glowing fluorescent moss hangs from side walls and pillars.

There are many houses with unique styles, decorated with all kinds of luminous gemstones and night pearls, many of which are open for business, and there are almost all kinds of shops, taverns, and workshops, even more than most of the ground. Human cities need to be complete.

Of course, the residents in the dungeon are now in a state of confusion, and they have already sensed that there may be fatal changes outside.

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

When monsters encounter misfortune, they are no better than humans, and it should even be said to be worse.

At least when human beings face a crisis, they must first weigh the weights, and then make judgments based on experience and guesswork.Should I wait where I am, or should I investigate the news, find the leader, or protect my family, or gather my partners to defend or counterattack, or should I turn around and run for my life immediately after deciding that something is wrong?

The monsters are basically egoists who only care about themselves and ignore others. They can at most take care of their own small family or small team. Unless there is a strong leader to suppress them, they will never gather as a whole to act.

unity is strength.

Only when philosophy has developed to a certain level of civilization can this truth be summed up.Otherwise, it is easy to be distorted and turned into a fork, such as power is power, order breeds justice, justice gives me strength, etc., are all heresies.

At this time, the residents of the underground city in Dagger Falls are facing a disaster they have never encountered before. Endless streams of fire flow in from various vents and entrances and exits. , They rampage on the wide streets of the underground city, igniting everything they come across. Whenever they encounter panicked underground residents, they will even bravely rush to play and explode themselves.

There are many types of residents in the dungeon, among them there are shapeshifters, ghosts, vampires, liches, tieflings and other intelligent beings living in the dark world, and of course some humans and elves live in despair as slaves In this dark land.

At this moment, these beings or non-living beings with different identities and statuses, facing the oncoming flames and high temperatures that can destroy gold and molten iron, basically all become salted fish on the same starting line.Whether they are tauren warriors who can defeat hundreds of people, or liches with strange magic abilities, there is no difference in front of the flames. They frantically stay away from any burning area, flee towards the deepest part of the dungeon, and wantonly attack Hack and slash anyone in your way, or cast a deadly spell.

In the deepest part of the dungeon, in a gorgeous palace, several figures as pale as snow were leisurely discussing William and his people. Among these figures were elves, humans, and even a The dwarves in plate armor with gold decorations, their eyes were red like blood, their lips were black, and every time they spoke, they would inadvertently reveal a pair of sharp snake-like teeth.

There is no doubt that these guys are all vampires, the most feared and resented existence in Dagger Valley.They used the purest crystal cups, drank the fresh virgin blood mixed with the most mellow red wine—the blood of a woman, and then spoke chilling words in lazy tones.

"Our lambs are running out a bit fast! There are not many good things left in the window! Maybe tomorrow's breakfast will not have such a mellow wine of life." By the way, the vampire used red wine The blended blood is called the brew of life.

"Oh no! I don't want to drink the dirty blood of those pigs (referring to adult humans or elves, who generally exist as blood food for carnivorous monsters) pulled from the pigsty!"

"Perhaps we can contact the sheep dealers in Zhentil Castle and ask them to bring some high-quality female slaves. We have helped them so much, and they should be grateful in return."

"Who wants to go to that city full of sulfur? At least I don't want to go."

"Even if we contact the slave merchants in Zhentil Castle, it will take many days to go back and forth. How can we survive the few days we have?"

"I heard that some lambs on the ground who ran out of the sheepfold have chosen new leaders, and they are nearby, ready to return to the old place. Ha, what a group of fickle beasts, they abandoned their old sheep without mercy. Chief. Maybe we can pick some delicious lambs from those returning flocks to make up for the lack of blood in these few days."

"Shut up! Dwarf, don't mention the word blood eater, you are a rude bastard! You seem to never learn the elegance of the Nightborne!" The vampires of human and elf origin roared at the dwarf vampire almost in unison.

"Oh - I hate working with a guy who is as rude as a wild boar, especially when he is my brother! No, I will never admit that this dwarf is our brother! Mama Miya!" This is a flirtatious elf The vampire uttered an almost aria-like exclamation, which drew unanimous admiration from his kind, save for the dwarven vampire in gold-plated armor.

"This time the flood disaster (vampires generally call water flow, because they hate the name water) our flock has suffered a lot. When harvesting lambs, we can't catch them all. We should give them a little bit of convenience to reproduce and expand as much as possible. the size of the flock before our ranch goes bankrupt."

"Don't worry, the reproductive ability of human beings is almost as terrifying as goblins. As long as there is enough food, they can grow out of the ground in no time and become a large brood of lambs! Maybe we can deploy some feed (referring to food), Give these lucky animals a low price."

"Well, this idea is very good. I leave it to you, Viscount Moen, go to adjust the feed. Remember! Make sure that all the feed is high-quality, after all, only when the lambs are raised white and fat, they will Those who are willing to give birth to their heart's content!"

The human vampire known as Viscount Moen gracefully performed a cumbersome aristocratic etiquette to his kind, and then walked out of the palace with dancing steps.

Only those depraved and extravagant fellows were left to elegantly discuss the taste difference between human lambs and elf lambs, as well as the unique flavor of those hybrid lambs.

Less than a quarter of an hour after Viscount Moen left in the teleportation circle that belongs exclusively to vampires, a group of flame creatures rushed out of the gate of flames on the ground again, but it was a group of flame mages and fire elves. A [Space Anchor] magic scroll was smashed in the corner, which was a "cheap item" scavenged by the elder Turmu of the fire dwarf from several plane merchants who passed through the flame world.

Of course, the process is definitely not very friendly, and the army with a knife handle will inevitably behave rougher when doing this kind of thing.

And at the moment when the [Space Anchor] was smashed down, the fate of the underground residents of Waterfall Town was already doomed. No matter how much glory or sin they had borne, they had all become a thing of the past at this time.

The terrifying flames chased the frantically fleeing monsters, engulfed them, and then performed a baptism and purification from body to soul, leaving only a few ashes to prove that there were traces of it in the world.

When a group of monsters and demons who escaped by chance rushed into the vampire's palace like crazy, the vampires could no longer maintain their elegance.

The demons and monsters who can escape from the magma-like flames must be the strongest and luckiest batch. They beat the bewildered vampires into the dust, and then frantically tortured the vampires about the teleportation circle or the physical force. The information on escape routes, their methods of torture or torture spells are so cruel, efficient, and leave no room for trouble.

The three most arrogant vampires were tortured into a puddle of flesh and blood in a short period of time. Only the most humble dwarf vampire wisely told everything he knew, but he was not left alone either. The fleeing demons gave him the final brainstorm.

Of course, these tortures and attacks did not kill any vampires. After all, the vitality of vampires is extremely tenacious, and their regeneration ability is even more terrifying than that of trolls. Without specific targeted attacks, there is almost no way to kill them directly kill them.

But these vampires are still in a state of confusion. They can't understand how those damn rioters dare to offend the real owner of this land. Don't they fear the cruel revenge from the vampire lord?

When the vampires struggled to recover from serious injuries and pains, the first thing they thought of was to drink a mouthful of sweet blood for themselves to supplement their energy consumption during the torture and recovery process.They even planned to cruelly kill a batch of lambs, so as to relieve their feelings of being greatly frightened and pent up anger.

Vampires are undead creatures that are not sensitive to temperature. They are immersed in their emotions and do not notice the changes in the surrounding temperature in time.When the four vampires came to a side hall and looked at the terrified expressions of the helpless lambs waiting to be slaughtered, their tortured mood immediately became happy, and a tyrannical breath began to emanate from the surface of the vampire's body. spread.

Vampires can expand their upper and lower jaws like snakes. They opened their ferocious mouths bigger than a washbasin, revealing terrifying fangs and disgusting mouthparts. Behind them, the statue of the bronze-clad gold palace door Drums are generally sounded.

All the vampires showed extremely angry expressions, and one of the elf vampires screamed: "I must tear up those damn blood slaves! Despicable maggots! How dare they disturb the great feast of the Nightborne?!"

The bronze-clad gold gate was slammed open, and then the furious vampires brutally tore apart the first blood slave who rushed in. At the last moment of death, this loyal vampire slave was still screaming "Fire! Fire!" !" What, there was an unbelievable astonishment on his face that was still in shock.

There were six or seven blood slaves who came to report the news at the door. They never expected that their master would kill them crazily as soon as he came up. Almost in the blink of an eye, three unlucky ones became under the claws of vampires. victim of.

Blood slaves are slaves of vampires. They can be humans or elves (only the images of these two races are more in line with the aesthetics of vampires). Each of them is an extremely handsome man and woman. They are admirers of the Nightborne, willing to To offer their blood, their bodies, and their unreserved allegiance to their masters, they hope only that the vampires will grant them the embrace of immortality and become part of the great Nightborne.

The inside story about the blood slave is not the focus of our story, the focus is what is happening now.

The blood slaves still belonged to mortals, and they began to sweat profusely under the increasingly unbearable scorching heat, and of course some of the frightened cold sweat turned into hot sweat.

The vampires brutally tore up six blood slaves who had no sense of resistance, leaving only the last terrified elf blood slave, and they will decide the remaining blood slave based on the information provided by the last messenger. If the blood slave's information is not so important or urgent, then as punishment for interrupting their master's happy moment, the vampires will mercilessly suck the blood of the elf blood slave, and then tear her to pieces.

Of course, if the blood slaves have enough information, they will still suck her blood dry, and then feed the blood slaves some rotten blood that only belongs to vampires, making her a new cute vampire, provided that she can bear the burden. Live this dangerous gift.

A creature that drinks the corrupted blood of a vampire has only a 50.00% chance of successfully becoming a new vampire, and a 50.00% chance of transforming into a rampaging blood demon without any reason at all. This failed mutant Only to be crushed on the spot by other vampires.

It's just that before the elf blood slave recovered from the panic and provided any information to her master, the overwhelming flames poured into the palace like a tide.

At this time, there was no need for the elf blood slaves to provide information. The vampires finally understood the reason for the rebellion of those damned rebellious demon monsters, and also understood the reason why these stupid blood slaves were willing to disturb them to enjoy the lamb and come to report.

Originally, the vampires still had a chance to escape from the pursuit of the sea of ​​flames, not to mention their unparalleled escape speed, the familiarity with the palace alone was enough for them to hide in the escape passage safely when they got the news in time.

It's a pity that the overly arrogant vampires killed their only chance with their own hands. Their behavior of killing blood slaves delayed the most precious time. This is a profound lesson.

The vampires who fell into a sluggish look stupidly at the oncoming flames. One of the vampires who was holding the elven blood slave smashed the useless slave into the billowing flames, and then he was also engulfed by the flames. The other vampires, and then the lambs in the side temple.

What a pity!How wasteful it is to burn those delicious lambs to a pool of useless ashes before they have had time to eat them!

While the vampires were being burned by the flames, they sighed inwardly. They were not afraid of flames, or vampires with a certain level of strength were hardly afraid of any harm. They could even take a short bath in the magma , but the burning pain cannot be avoided.

Only those newborn vampires and inferior vampire offspring would be afraid of the damage of flames.

However, these vampires whose outer skin was almost burnt to charcoal soon discovered a frightening situation. The elf blood slave was not burned to death, but she was enveloped by a bright flame.It's not how bright that flame is, but its characteristics that cannot be ignored. Even in a world full of high-temperature flames, that flame is still the most eye-catching existence.

In the flames, the elf blood slave was like a baby returning to its mother's nest, sleeping peacefully and peacefully.

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

The predecessor of every vampire is an outstanding elite. They either possess superb force, or have erudite knowledge, or are extremely clever, or have extraordinary scheming and unparalleled calculations. In short, none of them is a fool.

When the vampires lost their arrogance, their shelved wisdom reoccupied the high ground of the brain, and a vampire took a look into the side hall, which was also full of flames.Sure enough, the lambs that should have been burned to ashes were still alive, and they were also shrouded in bright flames, falling into a peaceful sleep.

This strange scene made a few vampires feel inexplicable chills. It is not without spells that can make lamb... mortals take a bath in the magma pool safely, but it can make a large group of mortals sleep peacefully in the flames There are few precedents, at least not found in the decayed memories of vampires. Perhaps the legend has almost no sense of existence, but in the previous year Karsus, the unexpectedly manifested Lord of Fire in the Cyre region, can do it.

Of course, the vampires certainly couldn't understand it, and even William, the person involved, didn't realize that this seemingly reliable little trick that William came up with on the spur of the moment was such a terrifying creation.

William just regards this technique as an inconspicuous application of the omnipotent spellfire energy, but he doesn't know that the preconditions necessary to achieve this application cannot be replicated by others.

This is the sublimation of the combination of the curse fire messenger and the flame lord, from quantitative change to qualitative change.

William is not the only messenger of the curse fire in this world, not to mention, in a certain tavern in Gaoyue City in the deep forest valley next door, there is a girl who was awakened by William earlier.And flame lords, not to mention everywhere in the flame world, but it is not impossible to gather thirty or fifty or even a company of flame lords by simply swiping.

But in this world, only William is known to be able to combine the power of the cursed fire and the flame lord. It can be said that this ability to keep mortals alive in the flames is William's unique special ability. .

Vampires are not afraid of flames, but it does not mean that they are immune to flame burns. The confidence they can walk freely in flames comes from their strong recovery ability. At maturity they can still be resurrected.

But if they stayed in the sea of ​​fire for a long time, the vampires would be unbearable, not to mention turning into a pool of ashes. The harsh conditions needed for resurrection are only the pain of being burned and their corruption The recovery ability of the body that has been working is constantly depleting the background of the vampires, making them involuntarily develop "blood thirst".

"Thirst for blood" is an instinct that no vampire can abandon. Even the oldest vampires can only temporarily suppress this instinct, but they cannot directly eliminate it.

Under the burning of the flames, these vampires' thirst for blood gradually began to attack, and their sanity gradually collapsed, and here only the flames and the lambs of the past were sleeping, and they had no reason to endure, so several vampires Without hesitation, he pounced on the lambs surrounded by bright flames.

The first one to touch the prey was an elf vampire, and his target was the elf blood slave who was thrown out by him.

Vampires are not cautious undead creatures. Their cunning and austerity only come from their wisdom before being transformed, as well as the accumulation of knowledge and experience after being transformed. This leads to a famous saying in the world of vampires. A transformed beast is always just a beast.

Almost defenseless, the elf vampire scratched through the bright flame film with one claw, and then he regretted it.

The curse fire's ability to kill undead creatures is far beyond the imagination of ordinary ghosts. The vigorous flame instantly filled the whole body of the elf vampire, almost sucking out his corrupt blood in the blink of an eye, and drained the vampire's corrupt blood. The body was burned into a cloud of smoke at the same time, the kind that left no ashes at all.

The elven vampire is dead, completely dead, so dead that his bones turn into ashes, and he dies cleanly without leaving any sequelae.

Cursefire is so domineering when it targets undead creatures.

Not only the elf vampire, but also the other two human vampires did not fare well. The so-called impatient guys died quickly. When they noticed that their companions were really burned to death, their claws had also touched the energy of the curse fire , and then they followed in the footsteps of their companions.

Only the most unpopular dwarf vampire was lucky, maybe because of his short legs, or maybe he had to show a little humility in front of a few of his kind, and then he was lucky.The near-annihilation-level deaths of the three companions made the poor dwarf vampire almost scream, and then he really screamed like a shrew. The invisible lethal ripples spewed out of the dwarf vampire's mouth, and then spread to the entire vampire palace .

[Undead Scream], making a piercing scream, causing certain damage to surrounding non-undead creatures and causing dizziness; awakening all undead creatures within the range of the sound transmission, and forming a certain degree of dominance over low-level undead Effect.

[Scream of the Undead] is not a powerful spell, especially in this vampire palace shrouded in flames, its killing effect has been reduced to almost nothing, what really makes it more commendable is its Undead awakening effect.

As the rulers of the dark side of the town, the vampires store a large number of undead soldiers in their underground palaces.That's right, they stacked the undead soldiers and stored them in the warehouse just like storing goods. Whether it was skeleton soldiers or zombie soldiers, they were densely stacked like cargo bags.

This is one of the foundations for the vampires to rule this land, and it is also the first knife they rely on to suppress all rebels.The terrified dwarf vampires finally remembered that they still had this trick to use.

Infinite skeletons woke up from their long sleep, and countless zombies broke free from the shrouds that entangled them. They were like frenzied house demolishers, slapping desperately at the gate of the snow storage area that restricted their freedom.

There are so many people, so many ants kill elephants. I don’t know how many skeletons and zombies were dismantled into broken bones and rotten flesh by themselves and their companions when they hit the closed opening. Then they broke through the restraints, and they rushed out of the hiding place. , and then was submerged by the sea of ​​flames, and burned into puddles of ashes.

When the dwarf vampire woke up from his panic and finally realized what he had done, he scrapped one of the hole cards he had used to turn the tables.

The dwarf vampire finally didn't dare to stay here to endure the torture of the flames. He needed to escape from this terrible place as soon as possible.At this time of escape, the once clever mind of the dwarf vampire finally played a role. He didn't go to the teleportation area to try his luck, because he knew very well that it was not a wise thing to cast teleportation spells in the sea of ​​flames, let alone the dwarves. Vampires are also not good at teleportation.

So a concealed physical escape route became the only option for dwarven vampires.

However, outside the walls of Dagger Falls Town, people stared dumbfounded at the flames of the town. Some people started to scream, some people clapped their hands and applauded. Many people began to shed inexplicable tears, maybe some people shed tears of joy, But there was no shortage of tears of sadness or hatred.

A small town with only 2000 or [-] people on the surface, but all kinds of shadows behind it are mysterious but messy and unbelievably messy. In fact, all cities with names, surnames and histories in Faerun basically look like this bird, The only difference is that the people in power on the dark side are different.

William didn't want to think about it, and he didn't want to get entangled in the intricate grievances and entanglements of various interests.Not to mention that even the powerful invading dragon from Zhentil Castle—the colonial forces are unwilling to mix with the dark forces in Falls Town, and even want to make peace with them, how big is William’s head to forcefully break it What about the local land snakes? !

Thanks to Levi, the former clerk of Falls Town, it was his advance notice that William knew that the flooded Dagger Falls Town was not an empty city. Its underground or dark side hides another one full of pain and vitality. dark world.

This is also a major impetus for William to bring the refugees back immediately. He can't wait until the impact of the disaster has completely subsided, and after the residents of Falls Town who fled to other directions and the refugees from other places return and live in the town, he can't go there. Deal with the city's dark side.

William is not a politician. He can't play with intrigues. He can't play with those old foxes who have lived for an unknown number of years. The only thing he can rely on is his own strength, his little-known army of flames.

Then, William directly overturned the table and set fire to the house to burn the ghosts, a popular cleaning exercise that is beneficial to the body and mind.
