The Swordsman of Faerûn

Banlkanas stood outside the sacred place, looked at the smiling William with cold eyes, and said: "Foreign humans, I am the subordinate officer of the great night king, Earl Pilar. Guardian of the land. What right do you have to establish a holy abode here without my permission?"

The words of vampires are filled with the power of "Law", which is a mysterious ability of belief, often classified as magic.If William agrees with Banlkanas' accusation but fails to provide an effective rebuttal, then the power of this sacred abode will be weakened.

Even if the sacred objects (such as the Holy Emblem) that provide the sacred power for the holy residence are not strong enough, they are likely to suffer a certain degree of damage, and when the damage reaches the limit, the effect of the holy residence will be automatically broken.

The verbal confrontation between one person and one vampire is not only a contest of speaking skills, but also a contest of legal principles and beliefs between them.

William stood inside the bush fence that was no higher than half a person, smiled at the vampire, and said: "I am the savior and protector of the refugees in Dagger Valley, the purifier and rebuilder of Falls Town. I am honored to be the free The chosen lord legally rules all the land within the scope of Dagger Valley.

Monster, I have never heard of the name of the King of the Night, nor have I seen him do anything to save lives on this land when the flood came!Please forgive me for not agreeing with your so-called guardian! "

Banrkanas was dumbfounded for a moment. They vampires don't save lives. They are the enemies of all flesh and blood. How can they be worthy of the title of guardians.

Of course, Ban Erkanas must not say such things, let alone admit them.It has already determined that the human being in front of him is the last enemy that the entire monster kingdom can't let go, otherwise the foundation of the entire kingdom's existence will be completely shaken.

Chapter Seventy-Eight When I'm Driving Big

Not to mention how vampires in other worlds were born, at least in Faerun's world, the origin of vampires is inseparable from the demon lord Orcus.

Orcus is known as the demon lord of the undead, the demon lord of the undead, and the blood lord. He is the source and lord of all vampires in Faerun, which also brings about a problem. The moment you become a vampire, then all the identities and status he (she) or it had when they were mortal things will be automatically given up, because you have turned to the devil and betrayed the world.

For example, you were originally a human lord, but when you are transformed into a vampire, your territory and all legal status, including your name, will no longer belong to you. You are just a nobody (non-human existence), and This is also the reason why the blood-sucking undead crisis broke out in Happy Valley, the predecessor of Dagger Valley.

But today, Banlkanas found that the methods they had used may need to do it again.

This powerful Nosferatu vampire was standing outside the sacred residence, and the murderous intent towards William had already filled the four fields in his heart, but the expression on his face remained completely unchanged, and he just said in a hoarse voice: "O ignorant mortal! Let you forget the greatness of the King of the Night, and let you forget to respect the sages!"

There are very few people in this world who know the essence of vampire transformation, let alone living people who know the inside story. It can even be said that even Elminster, the great sage recognized on this land, is not Knowing that the transformation of vampires is the beginning of the betrayal of the world (the great sage later experienced a very dangerous journey to hell, from which he learned these secrets).

Banlkanas never believed that William, a green-faced young human, would understand the essence of a vampire. It said in a voice full of bewitching power: "Earl Pilar was once the first batch of dignified pioneers in the valley. One, he used his wisdom to persuade the powerful Cormanthor Elven Court, so that the king of the elves, the crown-wearing Eltagrim, had to assign the valley to humans for settlement. Have a stable place to recuperate.

As the original leader of the valley, Earl Pilar once fought bloody battles with enemies to protect this land. As the king of mankind, he had defeated many powerful enemies and protected his people.

When Earl Pilar's life came to an end, and when he was blessed to become a noble blood family, he still loved this land deeply. He became the king of the night and has been secretly protecting this place, driving away those who have bad intentions. the peepers. "

In the end, Banlkanas concluded: "The King of the Night is the most undisputed ruler in this land. Even a democratically elected lord like you should belong to the jurisdiction of the King of the Night."

William sneered in his heart, Banrkanas' killing intent towards him, under the guidance of his perception, was as bright as a flashlight at night, making it impossible to ignore.

This bastard who was full of lies was deceiving him that he didn't know the nature of vampires, but he didn't know that he had already seen the truth of everything.

In fact, William had long wanted to slash this monster to death, but he always had some questions in his mind that needed to be answered, and he also needed this ugly vampire to do some more reasonable things, such as summoning those scattered and hidden undead Soldiers, it's also convenient for William to catch them all.

William said: "Your Excellency Baner (Banr), I have a question to ask. More than five centuries ago, there was a very serious vampire attack in Happy Valley, the predecessor of Dagger Valley. Do you know the details at that time?"

Banlkanas really didn't expect William to ask this question. Of course, it knew the whole incident. After all, it was one of the participants. The flesh and blood of those babies back then was really sweet, and it still reminds it to this day endless.

Of course, this matter must not be brought to the table. The vampire of Nosferatu is squeezing his brain hard, trying to make up a better story to cover up the bad things of the year.

It's a pity that William doesn't need Banlkanas's answer, he just needs to have a judgment in his heart, and the perception ability from the mind makes William's judgment almost [-]% accurate , the lack of a point after the decimal point is to express awe of the mighty power of fate.

William nodded and said to himself: "Very good! It turns out that your Excellency was one of the direct murderers who poisoned Happy Valley back then. What about your master? I'm afraid it also participated in blood-sucking... Oh! It seems that my guess is confirmed. He is the real culprit of the whole bloody horror incident! The so-called blood-sucking kingdom..."

William asked and answered by himself, and uttered a series of conjectures about the dark kingdom's inside information and intelligence in an almost rambling manner, but it sounded as shocking as Huang Zhongdalu to Bancanas, because William's The guess is almost perfect, there are not only widely known public news, but also secrets kept secret by the high-level officials of the kingdom.

Even if the guess is wrong occasionally, William will correct it immediately, as if someone specifically reminded him right or wrong in his ear. The most extreme one, William guessed wrong information seven times in a row, but he stared blankly at the vampire's face. Eyes said the correct answer on the eighth time.

This is a bit too much ha!

Banrkanas' expression changed drastically. It looked at William in horror, and said in a trembling voice, "You...human! Are you a prophet or a mind reader?"

William smiled and said, "Guess!"

Banlkanas said with a ferocious face: "Hmph! The lord of mankind! No matter who you are or what tricks you use, it seems that I can't let you go today! This place will be your burial place!"

Vampire motto - Never resurrect or transform a seer, stay away from mind readers.

Legend has it that Orcus was once a human prophet and was good at using [Mind Reading].And when he was resurrected as an undead, he relied on his natural foresight to climb and transform all the way in the bottomless abyss until he became the strongest demon today. Orcus's strength is enough to make all the gods terrified.

No undead creature wanted a second Orcus to appear beside him, nor did Orcus want another competitor similar to himself to appear in the Abyss.

So Banlkanas wants to surround and kill William, but it will never have the guts to transform William into an undead creature.

The vampire opened its horrifying mouth, but it was as wide as a washbasin. It looked up to the sky and emitted an ultrasonic wave that normal people could not hear, causing the silent ultrasonic wave to spread and echo in the valley.

Then I saw countless undead coming out of the dark corners, undead skeletons, zombies, ghouls, ghosts, and flying zombies - this winged humanoid monster is like a boiled monster. A cauldron of corpses, with tangled layers of bone beneath its rotting muscles.

Quite similar to the Constructed Corpse is the Clone Demon. This crooked, bat-winged monster moves surprisingly agilely, and its glistening eyes and disgusting long tongue are quite scary.

The most frightening ones are actually the black knights and headless horsemen riding corrupt horses. These undead heavy cavalry are even more difficult to deal with than they were in life. They are tireless meat grinders on the battlefield and reapers of death.

Several powerful undead monsters first came to Banlkanas, and they paid their respects to the vampire warlord one after another. The skeleton lord wearing bone armor and carrying a bone shield, and the one wearing a blood-stained white wedding dress The leader of zombies, the mother of ghouls like a bloated giant, the ghost banshee covered in ice, and the leader of constructed zombies and clone demons.

Originally, they were quite puzzled by the sudden summoning order of the vampire warlord, but when the sacred residence built by William and his party and the forty or fifty high-quality living people hiding in it appeared in the sight of all the monsters After that, they immediately understood the truth of the matter, and they had no intention of rejecting it.

The commander of the undead cavalry, a fear knight riding a nightmare was the last leader to arrive, because it walked very slowly, but it made the nightmare who was burning with magic fire under his crotch quite dissatisfied. The fear knight glanced at the sacred horse with disdain Juna's seemingly flimsy fence fence.

It came to the vampire and said arrogantly: "Banlkanas, you are becoming more and more incompetent! The king should not have given you the position of war commander. A poor sanctified residence, actually All the troops were summoned with great fanfare! You are simply in a daze!"

Banlkanas didn't care about the unreasonableness of the fear knight, because this undead knight was really strong, and it had the capital of arrogance.The vampire warmaster said: "The people hiding in the sacred residence are the new lord of Happy Valley and his lord's guards. This time, except for the lord, the other spoils will be distributed by your exploits. The first to break through the sacred wall Troops have the right to pick and choose trophies first."

"Why can't that bullshit human lord be assigned? He is the most suitable material to be transformed into a headless horseman!" The fear knight said quite dissatisfied.

Banlkanas gave the fear knight a cold look, and then only said: "He is a prophet!"

All the monsters were terrified, and they all looked at each other in blank dismay, all quite embarrassed.

Prophet is not easy to touch, this is a taboo of the undead system, once there was a lich who transformed the corpses of a group of followers who followed a certain well-known prophet, and then this lich and its undead kingdom were taken from the infinite The anger of the bottom abyss burned into a pool of ashes, the kind that frustrates bones and blows ashes.

The reason is very simple. Most of the prophets on the surface are Xibei goods selling dog meat with sheep's tricks, and even many of them are substitutes deliberately launched by real prophets. The prophets will pretend to be followers of the "prophet". Stirring the situation secretly.

No one can guarantee whether this human lord is a similar example, and maybe a certain humble guard beside him is the real prophet.

The fear knight said coldly: "We don't need spoils this time! Destroy them all!"

When all the monsters heard the words, they immediately echoed excitedly:

"Yes! This time, none of us can keep even a piece of flesh and blood!"

"I can drink the blood of those lambs before they die!"

"I can eat fresh meat alive!"

"I'm going to suck their -jing-qi dry!"

"I want a good bone... No, no, no! I don't want anything!" The skeleton lord wanted to agree, but under the strange eyes of all the monsters, he gave up his little plan embarrassingly.

They are all selfish and evil existences, who would be more kind and selfless than anyone else? In fact, each of these guys is eager to become a lucky one, maybe they can gain a little prophetic ability when eating food? !

The fear knight couldn't wait to mount his gun and mounted his horse. He held up a conical lance made of cold iron from the abyss, and shouted to the monsters: "I will lead the charge! Use the impact of Gonzanicam to break through the sacred wall I will crush those silverfish, tear their bodies, trample their bones, and crush their flesh!"

Then the fear knight slapped Nightmare, and his man and horse turned into a mad flame running wildly, crashing directly into the fence fence, and a live show of a large-scale car accident like sparks hitting the earth was soon presented in front of everyone.

The magic fire collided with the sacred force field, but it scattered like fireworks flying into the sky, one after another.

The majestic holy power followed the direction of the evil impact, and returned it with the reaction force of the same amount of opposing attributes. The fear knight's body, which was stronger than fine steel, shattered into a puddle of sand, including its rider. The haunting nightmare exploded into dark sparks all over the sky.

This is what the title should mean. The sturdiness of the holy residence is not only related to the amount of holy power, but also related to the basic material used to construct the holy objects. The latter point is especially important in the main material plane.

On the main material plane, you should never think about exhausting the sacred power of a holy dwelling, because the holy dwelling can continuously draw sacred energy from the heaven plane or the corresponding kingdom of God to supplement it.

Only like the fear knight just now, using excessive evil power to attack the holy house, causing the holy object carrying the holy power to be overloaded with energy and automatically destroyed, so the holy house can be broken.

Of course, what the fearful knight did not expect was that the sacred object used by William to carry the sacred power was so terrifying. It had been infected and assimilated by the power of the gods for centuries, and it was already as strong as gold and iron. , and after William used the curse fire to burn the porcelain, its carrying capacity of the divine power is even comparable to the material used to construct the astral world of the gods and kingdoms of the gods. How can it be shaken by a mere fear knight?

At this moment, the entire valley has been densely crowded with all kinds of undead creatures. Looking at it from the outside, there is a tendency to infect people with dense phobia.

Afterwards, someone estimated that the undead that appeared here were several times more than the combined population of all living people in the entire Dagger Valley. Before the flood, the population of Dagger Valley was about 7000 to [-]. between.

When undead creatures of this magnitude blatantly gather in one place, they are no longer just a group of walking monsters. This is a real undead disaster.

The reason why I say this is because when a large number of undead gather together, the extraordinary characteristics of undead creatures they possess will condense in a geometric order, forming a domain of the dead that can interfere with reality. Plants wither, animals die, the earth will become a dead land of the dead, and it will never stop spreading around. This is the objective law of life and death, unless someone can eliminate all the undead in the entire land of the dead, An extraordinary manifestation of the rule of dispelling death.

Coincidentally, William is such a capable person, and it can even be said that it is difficult to find a more suitable enemy of the undead than him in Faerun.

When dealing with the demons, William learned a big move, using a mushroom cloud, which is a safe, environmentally friendly, pollution-free, radiation-free, and non-residual green method.

William felt that this move had the potential to become his regular big move, and now he wanted to experiment a few more times, so as to accumulate some experience and experience in using it.

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

Fire creatures have a certain advantage when dealing with undead creatures who are not immune to fire damage.

This advantage does not mean that the flame has any additional damage to the undead, although the lethality of the flame is indeed very strong, but that many flame creatures do not leave corpses in the general sense after death, and they cannot be transformed by the undead on the battlefield. It also offsets the biggest advantage of undead creatures, which is resistant to consumption and can expand the source of troops anytime and anywhere.

The situation of other elemental creatures is similar, which is unmatched by all flesh and blood creatures.

The flame creatures in the flame world are endless, but the flame creatures that William can control are limited, and at this moment, which is equivalent to working hard for the whole world, and it can be called a reward for meritorious service, William does not want those "foreigners" His subordinates divided his credit.

What?You said that those "crooked nuts" came to help you punch because of the power of your face fruit?I'm sorry, the world doesn't have so much thinking logic, it only recognizes the place of origin, whoever's credit is his, and no one can try to usurp the fruits of others by relying on lanugo.

Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and all things are dogs.

William felt that the ancestors in the previous life were really awesome, and they understood all the truths in the world.

He opened the gate of flames and summoned the cursed fire phoenix. In an instant, several huge flames phoenixes spread their wings and hovered in the sky, but they caught the eyeballs of all the observers around them.

Dear!What are you going to do?Relying on just a few summons to deal with as many undead natural disasters as mountains and seas?We admit that these firebirds are very strong, and the curse fire is also very useful, but!Too many ants kill elephants, too many pits kill ghosts!

Of course, William would not pay attention to the complaints of some bored people, and he would not hear them. He just arranged for his men to quickly dig deep trenches at the campsite to resist the imminent shock wave.

Although William had let off a big firework once, he hadn't had time to take a closer look through the gate of summoning from another world that time, so he really wasn't sure how powerful his move was.

Is it at the level of Yunbobo, or at the level of "Little Fatty"?Of course, William of the apocalypse level like Great Ivan would never even think about it.

But at least one thing, William is sure, any big fireworks that can form a mushroom cloud cannot be underestimated.

The wide and deep trench was quickly dug out. After all, most of the people present were strong, good boys and girls who could run horses on their arms and stand on their fists.It's just that they don't understand the intention of their lord to ask them to do this. To be honest, the mountain of corpses and ghosts outside is really scary. They feel that their calves are weak just by glancing outside.

Although the holy residence on the ground can save everyone's life temporarily, no one thinks that they can rely on it to survive. The only thing that can give everyone a little confidence is the few legendary beasts that the lord has just summoned. Divine bird Phoenix, I hope they can really be as powerful as the myths and legends say.

Of course, those with real brains in the elite team don't have much confidence in these phoenix-like firebirds. Even if it is the same number of adult dragons, they will directly face undead of this magnitude. Shrinking eggs, these firebirds will not be stronger than giant dragons in terms of individual combat power.

Therefore, in the eyes of many people, these cursed fire phoenixes summoned by William are more like a kind of psychological comfort.

The pit was dug and reinforced with spells.

William ordered everyone to take shelter in the trenches.He asked the big guys to squat on the ground with their faces down and their heads lowered. The reason why they were not allowed to hide in a more scientific prone position was because these people didn't understand that the shock waves transmitted along the ground might damage internal organs. The truth is, if William makes them lie down, most of them will lie down very solidly.

William also asked everyone to cover their ears and shut their mouths tightly, or open their mouths without covering their ears (this is a common sense mistake many people make, and it is useless to cover their ears and then open their mouths). All the guys took William's warning as deaf ears.

William is also very helpless for the lack of cooperation of his subordinates. Think about it or forget it. These idiots will not understand the goodness of the lord's father to them if they have not suffered a big loss last time.

After thinking about it for a while, William stopped worrying about everyone's perfunctory attitude towards preventive work in advance. Anyway, as long as no one died, the injured would naturally be healed by magical spells. Injury is permanent damage.

William stood on a pile of excavated soil. He chose a relatively remote location, and controlled a curse-fire phoenix to fly past with his mind.

After all, this is the first time to use such a big move that can modify the map in the main material world. Naturally, William has to be more cautious and place the landing point farther away, so as not to really make a nest of people on his side.

Because there is a problem here, the holy residence is only to protect against evil, not a real energy shield.For example, if those undead creatures threw normal stones at William and the others from a distance, then William and his group might really be smashed to pieces.

As for the shock wave from the self-detonation of the cursed fire phoenix, the holy residence will naturally not play any blocking role.

It felt that the distance was far enough, and there was even a small mound on William's side, and he suddenly detonated the Cursed Phoenix.

In an instant, like many suns appearing in the sky together, the night sky with a radius of tens of miles turned into daylight, and it was the kind of extremely dazzling glare. In the trench in front of William, I don’t know how many fools were crying. "my eyes!".

The undead creatures all over the mountains and plains crashed collectively, and all the monsters with low light were emitting green smoke all over their bodies. Among them, ghosts were the worst, and those exposed to the light were directly purified by the deadly strong light.

The deadly glare flickered for just a second before a spectacular mushroom cloud rose.This mushroom cloud is still very bright. Although it can no longer hurt people with light, it can still illuminate the earth.

William knew that there would be a huge sound wave impact in the next few seconds. He jumped into the trench and shouted loudly to everyone: "Cover your ears and shut your mouth!"

This time no one didn't listen to him, even if some were still crying and crying about their blind eyes, they hurriedly followed suit.

Sure enough, as soon as William's voice fell, a terrifying explosion swept across the crowd, and then swept all the way into the distance.Even though everyone tightly covered their ears and closed their mouths, they still felt deafened, dizzy and wanted to fall like drunk.

What followed was an even more horrific scene. The small hill blocking William and the others from the center of the explosion was directly flattened and obliterated by the air wave generated by the explosion. An unstoppable shock wave followed the sound wave and swept in all directions. No matter the mountains, rocks and trees on the road, or the ridges and ravines, they were all scraped and ground into fine powder, not to mention the undead along the road, not even the ashes remained.

When the shock wave reached the location where William and the others were, its power had already been greatly reduced, but an inch-thick layer of soil was still blown away from the surface, and the air wave passed through like a typhoon, sweeping away all the surrounding surface objects. up.

Thanks to William's proper preparation, he dug a trench for everyone to hide in. If these people stood outside, the casualties would be unspeakably heavy.

William, who set off the fireworks, was naturally the one who was most prepared psychologically, but when he jumped out of the ditch and looked around, he was also shocked by the power of his mushroom cloud technique, because the surrounding terrain, especially the terrain in the center of the explosion The whole has been completely changed, the former mountains and hills have completely disappeared, and it has become a crater terrain that only appears in nature when meteorites fall, but the depth is relatively shallow.

The undead in the area affected by the explosion were basically extinct, and even the land of the dead infected by them was reduced to harmless fly ash.However, the army of undead in other directions is still alive. Although they were also messed up by the loud explosion and the wind-like air waves, and many of them suffered bruises to varying degrees, it is not the same for undead creatures. How much damage.

Countless whispers are echoing everywhere:

"This should be a limited-level spell that surpasses the restrictions of the magic net, right? I'm afraid ten [Meteor Burst] (the most advanced evocation-type killing spell available in the mortal world) can't match the power of this blow!"

"Is this guy having an affair with that bitch, the goddess of magic? How dare Mysra open the magic net back door for this guy?"

"Maybe this human being has found a loophole in the magic net's restrictions, maybe we can..."
