The Swordsman of Faerûn

Misha'er pointed at the giant Cato and asked, "William, what should we do with this big guy? Are you going to kill it?"

Before William could answer, Cato begged for mercy: "Please don't kill me, Cato is a very useful giant! I can help you with many things."

William glanced at Cato's body, but his heart was moved. He said that his territory was undergoing a major construction-infrastructure. Although there were many spellcasters for technical support, there were still some shortcomings in some aspects. One point is the lack of powerful mechanical assistance, and the hilly giant is undoubtedly a good substitute.

Thinking of this, William turned his attention to the last two uninjured hill giants.I didn't want those two cruel and stupid giants to still want to attack William and the others when most of their companions were killed and even the leader surrendered.

But this time, the two hill giants used stone throwing to attack, and the deadly stone bullets flew towards the little guys around William like they were in a hurry. William.

Blood flashed in William's eyes, and he drew a knife curtain at one of the stone bullets.The stone bullet and the knife curtain quickly met, and it dissipated into a sky full of fine pebbles without making a sound.These stones have no lethality, they just give a few little girls a false alarm.

But the other stone bullet was caught by Feniya. She held the stone bullet and spun around on the spot, but projected it back the same way.

When the hill giant was hit by the stone bullet he threw, he inadvertently saw that another of its companions had already been decapitated.It was also this sudden change that caused the hill giant to fail to catch his own stone bullet in time.

Then, it was also killed by a sword, also by beheading.Moreover, the pain at the moment when the hill giant was killed was simply terrifying. It is estimated that it will deeply remember this pain when it becomes an undead, and then become the root of deep nightmares.

After William killed the two hill giants, he didn't restrain his anger. He raised his knife and looked at a rock not far away, and asked in a deep voice, "You provoked the will of those two giants, so they turned to me. Your family members launched the attack, right?"

"That's right! I did it!"

Before the words were finished, a blood-soaked giant in a scarred plate armor appeared from behind the boulder.

The appearance of this giant is more like a human being enlarged in proportion. He has a three-meter-high physique and a hard and stern face. One of his hands is dragging a large black giant that is full of dents and blood stains due to countless fierce battles. Sword, but the other arm is holding a metal battle helmet the size of a water tank.He wore a pair of iron gloves on his hands, but his arms and feet were bare, and the exposed skin was covered with criss-cross wounds.

The weight of this giant is definitely not light, but when he walked, he was calm and silent, every step was like a feather.

William's eyes immediately became serious. This is a real master, a truly powerful enemy that he has never encountered before.

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

William took a deep breath and let it out gently.He asked in a low tone: "Your Excellency has enmity with me?"

The giant inserted the black battle sword on the ground seemingly inadvertently, and then sat cross-legged on the sword generously, but said in his mouth: "No enmity."

William asked again: "Is there a grievance?"

The giant replied: "No complaint."

William sighed and said, "So you want to prevent me from going to rescue Shadow Valley? Are you going to destroy this place?"

The giant denied again: "I have no interest in destroying Shadow Valley. In fact, except for some stupid ignorant fools, no one with a brain (unknown to mortals here) would do such an idiot to the extreme. matter."

William sighed and said, "Then why did you attack my family?"

The giant laughed, and he said, "I don't deny that I cast [Incentive] (a magical spell in the field of war) on those two stupid war beasts, but they can hurt those little beasts in front of you." Boy, I'm the first one who doesn't believe it! If you're really that incompetent, then Ibrando and Marshock's deaths would be unjust."

William raised his brows when he heard this, and said with a cold and stern expression, "Are you here to provoke trouble?"

The giant laughed and stood up, patted the floating dirt on his buttocks, and said, "That's right! Since I came to the mortal land and set foot on this land, everything I heard and seen with my ears was your name." Number! Your figure! Your record! How can you tell me to go smoothly?"

William said angrily: "It's all other people's nonsense, deliberately flattering and killing me! You can't believe those nonsense flattery! Mad! What's going on in this world, someone always wants to kill me!"

However, he thought that someone had intentionally set fire to the ears of this aggressive-looking guy to create an enemy for him.

The giant laughed even louder. He pointed to William and said as if showing off to others: "Look! Look! This is the character I'm thinking of! If this kind of thing is changed to someone else, I'm afraid that my reputation is not loud enough. , the record is not shocking enough. However, he treats his reputation like dung, and abandons his honor like weeds on the side of the road. This is a real fighter! A perfect candidate who can lift you and me off the throne, and then wield a more powerful war authority! "

At this time, a dark red ferocious wolf dripping with blood slowly walked out from another direction. This giant wolf had abnormal blood red eyes, but they were shining with wisdom. It looked at William carefully. , but it made William's heart very tense.

What the hell!Another tough guy!This time it might be really hard!

Unexpectedly, the giant wolf said disdainfully in the common language: "I don't think this tiny human can pose a threat to me!"

The giant said with a playful smile: "Robber, if you don't believe me, you can go up and try his quality."

The giant wolf glanced at the giant with a foolish look, and snorted coldly: "I'm not stupid! My mortal enemy. Since this mortal is your favorite, naturally I won't take advantage of him! Hehe! No need. Worried that I will disturb your battle, I will leave immediately! The delicious city of Ximen is waiting for my favor! Goodbye! My opponent, this time I just want to say hello to you, the next time we meet is you and me The beginning of another decisive battle! I hope you will not be unprepared!"

As soon as the words fell, the huge dire wolf seemed to be sucked out of its vitality by something, and instantly turned into a decayed mummy and fell to the ground, while a bloody windmill-like brilliance composed of arms and scimitars shot up into the sky , flew towards the southern night sky at extreme speed.

The giant looked at the bloody brilliance disappearing into the sky, as if he had a heart disease, and his expression became obviously relaxed.He said: "Oh! The annoying villain is finally gone! William, I should be able to call your name William! Now continue the conversation between us. By the way, where did we just talk? Oh! You said someone made up I have to explain your nonsense."

"You have to know that I hold some truth about war (war power), when I want to, I can stand on this land and check what happened in Faerun for a period of time through ** (again, mortals are unknowable) Any good fight I've ever had. You know what, William? Nearly every fight you've been involved in gets an excellent rating."

Then the giant showed William a few battle scenes that he admired.

William looked at the vision presented in front of his eyes like multiple screens showing a movie together, and felt a bit bitter in his mouth, this is so outrageous.

Not only because of the giant's ability to "play movies", but also because the content presented in it is almost all battle scenes that William has experienced.

When William personally participated in these battles, it was from the No.1 perspective, which is quite different from the feeling that he is watching from the third-person perspective now.

Well, from the perspective of a bystander, William found that every victory he made gave people a feeling of walking a tightrope on the edge of a cliff, which seemed quite thrilling and scary.

Of course, this is not the reason why William is shocked. What William really feels uncomfortable is that he feels like a tool man living in Truman's world, being unscrupulously prying into his life experience.

This kind of thing is not magical at all, but very black technology.As long as the giant in front of him took out a crystal ball to show William, it wouldn't make him feel too disillusioned.

The giant kept giving William advice on how to appreciate the "images" he had experienced, and analyzed the pros and cons of the opponents for him as a client. Waiting for great writers to analyze the background, artistic conception, thoughts expressed and metaphors when they wrote certain works at that time, it makes people feel a sense of bizarre absurdity.

In this regard, William just wants to say on behalf of all the great writers, we really didn't think so much at the time!

Excessive interpretation will only embarrass everyone. William really didn't expect that he would come up with so many calculations during the battle. With this speed of thinking, even three Zhuge Liang can't match it!

Speaking of rising, the giant said triumphantly, "William, do you know which battle of yours I admire the most?"

William shook his head in embarrassment and said, "I really don't know. After all, I'm not the roundworm in your stomach. How could I know your thoughts?"

The giant patted his thigh and said, "What I admire the most is the battle where you killed the first winter wolf with psychological tactics..."

Well!In the giant's description, the relationship between William and Winter Wolf is like two wise men with top psychological strategies playing a battle of mind and eyes. Outwitted and killed Sima Donglang in a limit fight.

William wanted to say to the giant: I protest!You guys are simply adding drama on purpose!

But the giant said: "William, you should have guessed that I am Tempus, the Lord of War! I appreciate your talent in combat! Boy, come and be my voter. As long as you are willing to follow I, I am even willing to share the power of war with you, and let you become a new god of the war department."

William shook his head and said, "Excuse me for my refusal! Your Excellency the God of War. I don't want to be anyone's follower, nor do I want to be a god."

"Huh? You're joking, aren't you? William! How could you reject me? I'm very sincere!" The giant looked incredulous, as if he couldn't understand William's refusal.

William said: "It has nothing to do with whether you are sincere or not. It's just that I have my own way of looking. You and I have different ways, so we shouldn't conspire with each other."

The giant Tempus said angrily: "I know you have many secrets, William. I can see that there is a unique warrior heritage hidden in you, which is very important to me. It doesn't matter if you don't want to contribute voluntarily. After I defeat you and convert you into my chosen people, everything you own will also belong to me."

William sneered and said, "I can accompany you whenever you want to fight! But, is it really okay for us to start a war here? You must know that if you stop me from rescuing Shadow Valley Town, it is equivalent to helping those monsters deal with humans together!"

But Tempus laughed and said: "It's okay, when we fight, I'm afraid those monsters will slip away faster than anyone else, there will never be any idiots among them who dare to stay on the battlefield that belongs only to you and me. "

William sighed and asked, "Can't the two of us fight?"

The giant sneered, "Unless you are willing to surrender to me!"

William clenched the Qiushui knife and said, "Then let's go to war directly!"

But the giant Tempus said: "Wait! I'll send a message to Captain Valkur who sneaked into Ximen City first, and let him leave there early!~ After all, the bandit leader has already gone back, and he is not very easy to deal with! And already We don't need Valkur to help attract attention to the Kestrel Adventures in the south (the Red Knight's team before he became a god). I have a better target for attracting that old rival! It is you, William."

William said indifferently: "It happens that I also need my family to have enough time to stay away from the battlefield between you and me. Then, let us agree on a time and place as the start of the decisive battle between you and me!"

Tempus laughed but said: "William, you want to delay time? But don't even think about it! I don't want to be classified as some ignorant idiot camp. It's better to hit the sun than choose the day, right here, At this moment, it is the best moment for you and me to duel."

Negotiations failed. The saint of Tempus was determined to fight William. William was not afraid of him, but he felt a little rushed. After all, his family and companions were not far away, but he couldn't let go. Hands and feet!

William turned his head and shouted to Phinea and the others: "Go back to the boat! Go now! Get as far away from here as possible!"

As he spoke, he swung his saber, but with all his strength, he parried a sudden slash from the head-on of the Saint of War.This god of war is a little bit ignorant of martial arts, and unexpectedly attacked such a mortal like him.

Fortunately, the battle between the two sides was relatively restrained at the beginning. They just relied on their own strength to hack and fight each other almost like a child's play, and did not engage in a real life-and-death fight.

Feniya, Misha'er and the others understood William very well, knowing that he would not exclude them from the battle sequence if it was absolutely necessary.

They returned to the magic ship on the flying carpet and other tools, and then accelerated towards the pier of Shadow Valley Town downstream.Of course, Cato, the hill giant who wanted to join William, was abandoned on the spot. It found an inconspicuous corner to hide, and then waited for the final outcome.

The Qiushui knife and the black sword collided again, accompanied by fierce sparks and splashing silver shavings, William discovered that the so-called black sword was actually a silver-bladed weapon.

The saint of the Lord of War held a black silver-bladed weapon and said against William who was fighting with a knife: "I have heard that you have the ability of a prophet, including all your battles have traces of a prophet. I am curious, Why can't I see this ability in you now?"

William forced his opponent back with a single blow. Qiushui Dao's ability to harm souls is quite fearful even for a saint. He said: "The prophet is just a wonderful misunderstanding. If I really have the ability of prophet, I am afraid that I will be far away." How can I stay here and fight against you!"

Tempus was right when he thought about it. He sighed regretfully and said, "What a pity! Originally, I hoped to obtain the power of the prophet from you, but now it seems that it is just a fantasy."

The magic ship did not turn around and return upstream, but went directly to the town of Shadow Valley, where the city wall should help everyone see clearly the process of William's battle with an uninvited guest.

Seeing the magic ship go away, William can finally fight with all his strength with the giant saint in front of him with peace of mind.He began to speed up his offensive and defensive rhythms, attacking the opponent madly with fast and changeable sword techniques.

And Tempus also showed his power as the god of battle. His weapon use level has reached a very high level. It took William's offensive almost imperceptibly and completely.

Tempus became a little impatient under William's mad attack. He said arrogantly: "William, if you only have this level, then I can only say that your resistance is just a ridiculous joke."

Speaking of which, Tempus casually inserted a blood-red shield on the ground, with a silver sword in the center of the battle emblem banner, and then saw an invisible wave of energy passing to the body of the saint, but it made him Immediately, his size more than doubled.Although there are certain restrictions on the use of divine spells by saints, Tempas has found a way to bypass using believers to activate divine spells.

However, after the energy wave inspired by the battle banner hit Tempus, the saint's body almost doubled in size immediately, and the power of the war sword he swung had become extremely terrifying.

William, however, took a long and deep breath, but like a colossus sucking its nose, there was a long sound like the sound of a siren from his chest.

With blood-red eyes shining, William smiled evilly and said, "Let's dance! My god, I hope you don't fall behind too soon!"

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

William breathed in like a cry, but it surprised the saint Tempus who was fighting with him, and the hill giant Cato who was secretly hiding not far away and peeping.

The distance of Feniya and others allowed William to completely let go of his hands and feet, and he dared to directly execute many moves that affected a wide range.

William's energy and blood poured into Qiushui Dao, and the flames condensed in it, and immediately gave Tempus a [Crescent Sky Chong]...ah no, it was a [Fire Slash] very similar to Crescent Sky Chong.

An arc-shaped flame slash shot out from the blade of Qiu Shui Dao in an instant, and then quickly expanded and elongated. The explosive energy contained in it even emptied the surrounding air, forming an effect similar to that of a hurricane. .Countless sand, stones, dust, flowers, trees, and even many monsters without eyes were blown around.

These poor guys are still relatively lucky unlucky ones. The truly miserable ones are the poor ones who are drowned and swallowed by the expanding flames. They are the most unlucky. The violently expanding flames directly tear their bodies apart. Broken to pieces and burned to ashes.

And Tempus, who was the main target of [Fire Slash], felt even deeper.Speaking of it, this attack based on the flames and blood transformed by the energy of the curse fire seems to be a huge attack, but it is actually not very harmful to a saint with divine power, but it is extremely insulting powerful.

The violent flames pushed Tempus, who was unwilling to back away, to keep retreating, so that the saint's dustpan-like feet plowed two deep trenches on the ground.However, the flames still engulfed him, and then whetted him for a while, turning Tempus's skin red and glowing, before finally sweeping past him, plundering towards the monster army in the distance.

Tempus, who was left behind by the flame slash, gasped in pain, and the scorching heat made him flustered.Tempus really regretted it at this time, regretting that he should not have been too careless, shielding his divine power to reduce damage in front of William, a stubble.

Many people who know the secrets of gods know that the incarnation of gods with divine power has a unique ability to reduce damage. Except for some specific god-slaying magic, generally if you want to harm the body of a god (incarnation), you must use a magic weapon with the same energy level. Artifacts with high effects must either be extraordinary weapons that have reached a very high level.

Under normal circumstances, the body of the saint in Tempus also enjoys the protection of divine power.But Tempus has a very bad habit. He likes the feeling of being injured and bleeding during the battle, especially being able to be injured and bleeding himself is the greatest affirmation and recognition of his opponent.

Therefore, he always shields the divine power protection on his body during the battle.

If you want to injure even a little bit of other gods, then you may need to prepare a good enough god-killing weapon.But with Tempus, you may only need an elite-level sharp weapon to make this great God of War bleed, and of course just bleed.

Tempus has played this little trick countless times, and it has made many powerful fighters who fought against him fall in love with him, admiring the openness of this god of war.

But this time Tempus completely screwed up.

He didn't expect William, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, to play tricks. You said that the big guy is a good fighter, what do you mean by putting on a flamethrower? I know you play with fire, but you You can't be so careless!If I had known that you didn't talk about Wude, I would have directly opened damage immunity to piss you off!

Everyone knows that when it comes to burns, it doesn't matter how hard you burn, but the area of ​​your body burned. A large area of ​​burns is really painful, extremely painful.Tempus suffered extensive burns all over his body, his hair, eyebrows, and beard were burned off, and his skin was shiny, like a roast suckling pig.

Of course, this kind of injury that is fatal to ordinary people is not a serious injury to a saint. Maybe he only needs a healing spell, or he can heal quickly with his self-healing ability.

The point was that it was really hard, the pain interfered with the judgment of the War Saint, and William didn't give him time to recover.With a short body, he rushed forward, and then stabbed straight with the sleeve knife. The first time William, who was running away, went close to Tempus's face.

At this time, Tempus fully demonstrated his rich experience in street fighting. When William disappeared from his sight, the saint immediately protected the vitals of his face with a black sword and iron gloves.

William stabbed the gap in the iron glove, but was blocked by the iron glove. It turned out that the essence of the glove was also fine gold.William non-stop attacked Tempus's defenseless body parts, especially his unarmored arms, which were almost chopped into pork belly in a very short time.

It really hurts to slash people with the autumn water knife, and the slasher is no exception. Tempus feels that the pain he has endured at this moment is more than the pain he has suffered in the past 1000 years. He is struggling to stimulate the limited divine power in his body , wanting to get out of the predicament you are facing.

All saints have to face an extremely embarrassing problem. Compared with the normal incarnations of gods, the divine power that saints can use is extremely limited, and once these guaranteed divine powers are exhausted, they will lose their power in the future. Matter is essentially the same as normal native life.

Of course, these saints are not without ways to obtain more divine power.

The more conventional way is to find a group of devout believers and replace their power of faith with the magic of divine power conversion, and then the power of faith will be transformed into new divine power. This method cannot increase the upper limit of divine power that a saint can control. Just increased battery life.

Another kind of cruelty is to plunder other saints and extract divine power from them. Of course, the divine power obtained in this way will have a certain impact on the absorbed saints. The nest, and the rebirth of the house (later Ben played such a trick on his son).

Naturally, Tempus will not plunder the divine power of other saints. He doesn't even need to find pious believers to make such deals. His existence is based on war. It can be said that as long as there is war, the divine power of Tempus will There is no end to energy.

He mainly needs to use divine power to bless himself in various states and restore wounds, which is more troublesome.Because the saint directly uses the divine power to transform the divine spell, he will be backlashed by the divine power. This has been verified when Tempus used the divine spell [Incentive] on the two hill giants.

This is also the reason why he was easily called Po Xingzang by William. Tempus was injured by his magic from the beginning.

Therefore, if Tempus directly uses divine magic on himself, the result may be even worse.But fate gave God of War a chance. He secretly cast [God's Inspiration] on a terrified audience hiding not far away.

[God's Inspiration] is a low-level simplified version of the ultimate charm spell [God's Salvation]. This trick does not need to consume a lot of divine power, it only needs to establish a spiritual link with the target, and then influence the target with the majesty of God, transforming it into own believers.Of course, the success rate of [God's Inspiration] is more metaphysical. If you meet the right person, you can basically call one person. If the two parties are not compatible, failure is inevitable.

Coincidentally, this inspired audience was more compatible with Tempus, and he transformed the other party into his own believer with little effort.

The freshly baked War Priest - Cato the Hill Giant.When the poor giant heard the phantom call of the gods, he immediately offered his knees and faith, and then it gained the authority to use the magic spells exclusive to the war domain.

This guy immediately set himself a [Shield Technique], and then added a [Secondary Restoration Technique] to repair the wounds he suffered in the previous battle.Being prepared for danger in times of peace, Cato blessed himself with [Endure Elemental Damage] and [Shield of Piety] so as not to be sent away by the aftermath of the battle between the two big bosses.

Of course, in this way, the junior war priest Cato's regular magic slots were almost consumed, and there were only a few small tricks that could be used, but this was the enraged war saint who was about to take the opportunity to break the situation.
