The Swordsman of Faerûn

As for the piles of salmon roe, after being washed and dried, they are put into special large wooden barrels, sprinkled with fine sea salt for pickling, and sealed.

The salmon at this time is not only plump, but also mouth-wateringly rich in fish roe. The only pity is that the original residents of Dagger Falls Town are not good at cooking these delicious foods, but the residents of the former Tesen Valley are better at cooking. Process the salmon.

The hunting teams that went out to hunt also returned one after another, and there was even a group led by Phinya. This silly girl is always a bit restless, and she prefers to stand by the river with William and watch fishing. Go hunting freely in the wilderness.

It's just that the "prey" that Phineya brought back this time is a bit special, two kittens with cute figures.William has never seen such a unique existence. They have the same appearance as a cat owner, but walk upright like a human. For some meow addicts (female), this pair of little things is definitely enough to make people feel ashamed. A gift from heart to liver pain.

When they followed the hunting team into William's camp, they could barely move their feet.

The two kittens were drooling, their pupils like purple almonds greedily glanced at the salmon meat hanging on the wooden shelf, and those crystal and plump fish roe. Cat people feel as if they are in a cat paradise.

But their sluggish appearance makes them look even more cute, making people unable to resist the urge to masturbate.

Fortunately, William is not a cat lover, he just thinks the two kittens are a little cute, but he is not crazy about them.

Kitten people are a very rare sub-human race. Their close relatives, tabby people, are a famous nomadic race in the wilderness, and their combat effectiveness is not bad. Relatively speaking, kitten people are like mascots who can only wave flags and shout in battle.

Of course, if someone underestimates the catman because of this, it can only be said that you have no brains.Kittens are gifted at spying, camouflage, stealth, and even assassination.They are very good at disguising themselves as a real cat, happily playing around you for a month without any flaws, during which time they will unknowingly steal many of your hidden secrets, and even when necessary Gives you a scratch full of toxin-filled surprises.

It is said that in the past, many ignorant guys died accidentally because they wantonly flirted with a kitten pretending to be a cat, and then got revenge by the cat's paw. Most likely still will not be missing.

This is the manifestation of the irreconcilable contradiction between cat slaves who are too inappropriate and cat owners who are too arrogant.

Wherever kitten people appear, there must be the natural enemy that kitten people like to deal with-moonlight mouse.

Moonshine is a terrifying rodent creature.Under normal circumstances, the moonlight mice are almost no different from ordinary mice, but when the moonlight mice are bathed in the moonlight, their various ability indicators will get a huge bonus, and this bonus will gradually increase with the gradual increase of the moonlight. Full and growing, even under the full moon, each moonlight mouse will become a powerful monster that is not inferior to humans in terms of strength and wisdom.

Under the influence of moonlight, moonlight rats have the ability to organize, talk, construct complex plans, and manipulate complex devices.They spent more than a dozen full moons constructing a conspiracy, and then sneaked into a certain target area in groups, and waited until the night of the full moon to activate suddenly, and finally disappeared without a trace like ordinary mice .

When an area is ransacked by moonshine rats, even after the incident, it is difficult for people to tell what happened at that time, let alone believe that a group of unremarkable rats ransacked and killed a village or block. Usually this It was another group of animal-like ratmen who seemed to be more innocent than others.

Only kittens will know the true identities of those evil gangsters, and they will spare no effort to hunt down those well-disguised moonlight mice. In the eyes of ordinary humans, the war between them is like an ordinary cat catching A group of ordinary mice.

Of course, on the night of the full moon, the catman would definitely not join the Moonlight Mouse, unless it happened to be a very cloudy and rainy day.

William didn't know much about kitten people, but he also knew the cities where they existed.Much more reassuring than a town without kitty people.

But he was very puzzled, the old town site of his family is being burned by fire, why are you so eager to come to sell yourself?

The kitten people like straightforward communication, so William asked directly: "Mr. cats (both kitten people, regardless of gender, like to be called sir), may I ask why you came to my camp?"

One of the kittens, who looked more capable, quickly came back to his senses. It whipped the brains of another of the same kind, which was relatively dull, and then the two kittens rubbed their saliva like washing their faces.

The capable kitten said in a soft and tender voice: "Mr. William (Sheng), we are the special envoys of the Mother of Cats, and I am Lilinor."

Another kitten answered immediately, "I'm like Nanamo!"

Lilino the kitten gave a dissatisfied look at the companion who interrupted her, and then continued: "Thank you for everything you did to the mother of cats in Calimport, it was you who made our beloved mother of cats get rid of The dark power is entangled and has regained a new cat life. As a reward, we have been appointed by the great sage of the cat kingdom to come to serve you."

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

There are many people in this world who are greedy for small things, but many people don’t understand a truth. Being greedy for small things is easy to suffer big losses. Don’t look at what you eat and get cards. It feels good when you are cheated. It will make others feel better.

What did William do in Calimport? Well, he lit a fire, burned half of the elite area of ​​Calimport, and then chopped off the head of a certain existence.

William knew very well that some achievements of unknown origin should not be misrecognized, otherwise it is easy to bury hidden dangers.He thought about it, and then asked, "Mr. Cat, I'm afraid I can't accept your so-called repayment. Can you tell me what I did for your cat mother?"

Nanamo only heard William's words of refusal, and it immediately lowered its head and tail deafly, and muttered in frustration: "It's so annoying! Nanamo is going to continue wandering again!" , so that anyone who rejects it can't help but feel an inexplicable sense of guilt, including William is no exception.

However, William was determined enough and did not soften his heart because of this. He set his sights on Lilino, another kitten, and waited for it to give him a reasonable explanation.

Lilinor was also a little frustrated, and she said full of disappointment: "I don't know! The great sage only told us that it was William who saved our patron saint, and he didn't elaborate on the details."

William sighed. He looked at the people around him. Whether it was the little girls, the soldiers, the camp stewards, or the people who came to watch the fun, they were all very rare to the two kitten people.

William asked again: "Then please tell me, who is the mother of cats?"

The two kittens raised their ears and said in unison: "The mother of cats is the mother of cats, the patron saint of all cats!"

At this time, Maya, who was hiding aside to watch the excitement, suddenly said: "My lord, I know who the cat mother is. That is a goddess whose real name is Bastet, and her cat mother incarnation is also named Felid. Of course, this goddess now has another, more resounding name—Forbidden Fruit Lady Xia Ruisi."

William was surprised when he heard the words. The name Shareis was very familiar to him. After all, he was a saint whose head had been beheaded by himself, and in that unique and seductive scene, William naturally deep impression.

Does cutting off the opponent's head equal to saving him?William is skeptical.

He looked at the two charming cat people, and said directly: "Mr. cats, I have to tell you a regrettable fact. I'm afraid your great sage made a mistake, and I didn't save you The mother of cats, but cut off his head with his own hands. If we really talk about it, we should be enemies."

Not to mention the bewildered faces of the two kittens, even the onlookers around couldn't help but change their expressions.

Lord Lord, what are you talking about!Cut off the head of a goddess, are you kidding me, my lord?The weather is really nice today!Well, we seem to be suffering from auditory hallucinations? !

Maya asked with a pale face, "Your Excellency Lord William, did you really kill Xia Ruisi?"

Before William could answer, Misha clapped her hands and shouted: "What's the fuss about this, William has cut off several other gods!"

The stupidity of the big guy doubles directly, little girl, it is wrong to lie, and a child who tells lies is not a good child!This was the unanimous aspiration of the vast majority of people present.

Lilinuo's big almond cat eyes looked at William with tears in her eyes, and asked stubbornly in fear: "Mr. William, did you really cut off Shares's head?"

After getting an affirmative answer, the two kittens cheered and high-fived each other.

William looked at the kitten with suspicious eyes, dear, I cut off your god, your emotions are a bit wrong, shouldn't you express your loyalty to your cat mother with righteous indignation?What's the matter with the joy of dier jumping on the grave?

William was sure that the two kittens were out of their minds.

This is what William didn't know about the legend about the mother of cats in the cultural customs of the kitten people.

According to legend, the mother of cats has nine lives. When she encounters an inescapable crisis, she can cut off all old hatreds by falling, and then gain a new life in the kingdom of cats.This is also one of the reasons why Shar, the goddess of the night, controlled Shares a long time ago, but kept her imprisoned in Calimport, and never killed her.

The cat people seemed to see William's doubts, and soon they told William the legend of the cat country, but he couldn't help feeling that the world is full of wonders.

At the same time, it also made William feel quite relieved. The knife he stabbed in Calimport turned out to be a life-saving knife, which should be bragged about.

The doubts were resolved, and the kittens once again begged to stay on William’s land (not a permanent residence, because the kittens have wanderlust, they will not live in one place for a long time), and their applications were received by the crowd The unanimous support of everyone, of course, the final decision is still William as the local lord.

William looked at Misha'er and the maids who were full of surprise, and finally nodded slowly, agreeing to the kittenman's application for moving in.

Both the cat and the human cheered, the two kittens kept turning somersaults, and the people also raised their hands and stomped their feet to celebrate, as if they had accomplished a great feat.

Catman Nanamo's cute eyes twinkled with faint little stars, and murmured: "That's great, meow! I can finally eat fish as much as I want, meow!"

By the way, kitten people don't like paid money transactions, they think it is an insult to the dignity of their cats, they like to borrow directly, you can also say steal or rob.Of course, if the kitten is happy, it will allow you to touch its fur at an appropriate time as compensation.

So when the kitten steals your food without warning, please don't be angry or surprised, just keep calm.

The appearance of the kitten may be an accident, or it may be the appearance of some kind of omen. William doesn't care about this very much. He only needs to know that the kitten is harmless to him and others.

But since then, the hunting team has always brought back some strange guys from time to time. Among them are humans, dwarves, halflings, and some non-human guys. They all applied to join William's team.

This is a bit of fooling William as a fool. He just thinks with his ass and knows that these guys are obviously evil.

William directly recruited Cheval Starcloak, and used detection spells on these applicants—[Detect Goodness] and [Detect Evil] alternately. Why should the two detection spells be used alternately? This is to deal with more Logical exclusion of advanced protection spells [avoid detection].

When using a detect spell on a person, if he is evil, then he will only react to the magical aura of [Detect Evil], if he is kind, then only the [Detect Good] spell will respond He works. [Detect Kindness] Can display white aura, if the target is a great good person, the white aura will even appear platinum. [Detect Evil] shows a red magic aura, if it is red and black, it is likely to encounter a heinous big devil.

And in this world, no matter who it is, as long as it intersects with other beings, it will show different degrees of good and evil tendencies, and there will never be an absolutely neutral individual, unless he is born isolated from the world.

So any normal person will always show his good and evil tendencies under the spell of [Detect Goodness] or [Detect Evil]. If there is an exception, it means that he has used the spell [Avoid Detection] on himself , or a magic item with a similar effect exists on it.

For any applicants with good intentions, William would gladly accept them to join; while those evil ones could be distinguished according to the intensity of the magical aura of the detection spell.

For those with shallow evil deeds, William will dissuade or take them in as appropriate, and for those blackened beings with red aura of evil, William will mercilessly reward the other party with a blow to the head.

For those cheaters who did not respond to the two detection spells, William directly gave them two choices, either to die under his knife, or to leave automatically.

Even for those lucky ones who were allowed to join, William did not let them mix into the refugee crowd, but isolated a special area in the camp and asked them to form a small team to enter it.

The reason why William did this was because he knew very well that the purpose of these joiners was not pure.

The underground fire in Falls town burned for seven days and seven nights, and it took about the same time to dissipate heat and cool down.When people can finally walk into the town without worrying about the hot and deadly air and ground, they are stunned by the scenery inside the town.

There is nothing to say about the buildings on the ground in Waterfall Town. After being burned by the fire, they basically turned into nothing. The key point is that the ground under their feet has turned into a whole piece of almost one-piece glazed rock, which is crystal clear and colorful.

And along the stairway leading to the underground city, after entering the underground city, the scenery people see is even more astonishing. The underground city has become a world of colored glaze, with colored glazed domes, colored glazed walls, and flat colored glazed streets. Like ice.And the ashes of monsters and various metal liquids that have been incorporated into the glazed paste endow the glazed world with colorful enamel, which is as fascinating as the gorgeous Tang Sancai.

Of course, the underground world cannot last long. After the fire, the dungeon lacks oxygen, and anyone who stays below for a while will feel chest tightness, shortness of breath, and dizziness.

But people always want to go down and see what happened, and those who have seen it want to go down and watch the second and third times.

Indeed, who would not love such a world like a crystal glazed kingdom?

Including William's family, whether it's Misha, Miluna, or Phinea, or Maya, Seruel, mother and daughter, they are all overwhelmed by the gorgeous glass city.

The half-elf protector Cheval Starcloak claimed that if the lord allows her to live in the Liuli dungeon, she is willing to be loyal to William for life, even including becoming the lover of the lord.

The two cat people screamed that they wanted to settle down in Falls forever, let the kitten people's wanderlust go to hell!

Only now did William realize that he had completely underestimated the alluring power of a glazed castle to everyone, and even those who expressed their allegiance after seeing his mighty power of arson began to lose their minds. Grab a piece of land of your own in this glazed city.

The aborigines in Dagger Falls formed a group of legalists, the non-indigenous people who joined before the camp arrived in Falls formed a Labor faction, and those who were rescued from the underground city formed a Suffering faction, and they were hostile to each other. They are also connected with each other, for example, the legal school and the suffering school only want to monopolize the dungeon, while the labor school wants to get a share of it.

Each faction among them could not directly face the joint suppression of the other two factions, so the lord William, as a tool man, became the help that everyone wanted to calculate.

In the face of the real temptation, elected lords are nothing, how strong are you, you have the ability to kill them all!

This is Xiaomin's cunning and greed.

Of course, William is well aware of the loss of control of his subordinates, and he is not alone. There are many scattered people who are not qualified to join the three factions, and they are closely surrounded by the only lord they can rely on. Such stupid smart people, they know very well that only the lord is the thickest thigh.

When a group of refugees from the south bank of the Tessa River appeared near the town of Dagger Falls, the greed of the people finally turned into turmoil.

The people of the three factions who are determined to win the Liulidi City don't want more outsiders to divide up their treasures, so they are ready to kill the refugees who suddenly appeared. When the night comes, the three armed teams secretly Leaving the camp, they crossed the water trail below Dagger Falls and headed straight for the refugees who had just been fed food from William's camp.

After being in this world for so long, William didn't understand a truth until today. Faerun doesn't welcome the Lord of Benevolence, and they will regard benevolence and righteousness as weakness and bullying.

When William walked out from the frightened refugee group, not only did a group of vicious thugs have no sense of shame, they reprimanded him, the lord, plausibly.

A sorcerer who was just rescued by William from the dungeon not long ago pointed at William proudly and shouted: "Look! Look at this lord, who has betrayed his people, he has betrayed us. He would rather give that fantasy city to those damn outsiders than share it with us!"

Holding a dagger, he turned around and shouted to the armed mob: "This William is a traitor who has betrayed his duty and his honor! He is not worthy to be our lord anymore! Let us kill him before Elect a new lord!"

"Kill him!"

"Kill him!"

"Kill..."

The warlock tried his best to encourage his three-inch tongue, but found that people's echoes were relatively enthusiastic at first, and then became smaller and smaller, especially those from the Jurisprudence School and the Labor School, and finally all silently stopped shouted.

The warlock suddenly turned around, only to see that William was burning with frightening flames, and the sword in his hand had come behind him.

William grabbed the warlock's neck, pinching him so hard that he could barely breathe, but the flames didn't burn the warlock, but sucked away all the magic protection in his body, and even the instant spells that the warlock desperately released, It also disappeared into the invisible in the flames.

Chapter Sixty-Six: Punishment for those who are fearful of power but not virtuous

William carried the lingering warlock like a dead dog, glanced coldly at the armed mob, and shouted angrily: "Who else wants to break with your lord? Stand up! I believe there must be some of you Many people have always been dissatisfied with me, don't blame me for not giving you a chance, I allow you to resist me openly.

Whether it's a one-on-one fight with me, or a group of people, I won't use any helper.Of course, if your resistance fails, death will be your only end. "

None of the mobs from the Legalists and Laborers were willing to stand up, but among the Patriarchs who didn't know William's background, many guys with good strength stood up with weapons and shields each.From their point of view, their own side has a big advantage in numbers, even if this stupid lord has three heads and six arms, he can never hope to beat them.

As for the rumors that the lord killed the gods that have been circulating in the camp, it is simply nonsense and not credible.

Twelve rebellious and rebellious people, they are all monster servants from the dungeon. The sufferings in the past could not dispel the evil thoughts and ambitions in their hearts, but instead contributed to the rise of abusive spirit.

In William's camp, they could not plunder wealth with their own force, enjoy fine wine and food, abuse women and children, and enjoy dominance. This is really a boring place.

It was only when these thugs stood in front of William and faced the slashing knife he had slashed over, that they realized that they were the ones who were really at a disadvantage.

The large leather shield was cut in half with a single knife, and even the arm of the shield bearer was not spared.Scimitars, tomahawks, flails, and long swords were all turned into useless soldiers under the sharp edge of Qiushui Dao, and their owners were also beheaded by William one by one.

Even if the last two rebels had no fighting spirit and dropped their weapons and knelt down to beg for mercy, William still cut off their heads unceremoniously.

Standing among the heads all over the floor, William asked again: "Who else? Who else wants to be the next rebel?"

No one responded, including the remaining thugs of the Patriarchy, all of them hung their heads in horror. When faced with an irresistible force, it is not so embarrassing to give in for a while.

But this does not mean that they will be safe and sound. William is really cruel this time. He wants to use thunderous means to completely frighten all those with treacherous hearts, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble for him.

The aborigines and later joiners of Falls Town have their own representatives of public opinion. This is the preferential treatment that William specially provided to them in order to balance the disadvantaged status of the newly joined people. Obviously, this preferential treatment did not get the representatives of public opinion loyalty.

In front of all the mob, all the representatives of public opinion who were among the armed mob tonight, none of them were beheaded by William, and among them was the big bear Badal. Sad like a child who has lost a toy.

Indeed, under William's hands, as long as Badar is not stupid, he will have a bright future.It's a pity that tonight's actions completely ruined him. Badal knelt down on the ground and said to William with tears streaming down his face: "My lord, I have failed your expectations! I don't want to betray you, it's just..."

William was also heartbroken, but Badal was one of the most reassuring government officials under him. If it wasn't for the bad things they did tonight, he really didn't want to kill Badal. Ma Di, it is this kind of contradictory mentality.

Before hacking Badar to death, William said: "Baadar, as a final farewell, tell me the truth. Who is the connection between you that caused such a riot?"

Badal was stunned for a moment, before whispering a name, and then William chopped off his head.

The beheading of all the leaders was William's direct punishment for the armed mob of Legalists and Laborists.

They are the basis of William's rule over the entire camp, and they are also the group who understand William's power the most. They just mistake the benevolence and righteousness of their lords for weakness, and then give birth to the madness that "a gentleman can bully others". Heart.
