The Swordsman of Faerûn

Simbu sneered: "Are you talking about that stupid big man with no more brains than goblins? Please forgive me, I am not belittling her, that is really not suitable to be your queen!"

William said coldly: "Whether it fits or not is my problem, not yours. Also, I am the guardian of your eldest sister Hellen, and I don't think you are digging your own sister's wall when she is not around." It's an appropriate behavior."

Simbu smiled like a little hen who stole a fox this time, and snickered: "You should know that sharing is a virtue shared by our sisters. Don't worry, Xillen will definitely not mind that I borrow her for a while. people."

William couldn't help being defeated by this mad woman's shameless face, he jumped into the portal hastily, but what greeted him was not the city walls of Shadow Valley Town, but a gorgeous and luxurious palace, and a series of deadly spell attacks, At the same time, it was accompanied by the trembling and chorus of Jadesri.

"Crazy witch! Meet the end of death!"

"Praise Sazas! I will usher in the glory of victory!"

……

Various fatal or non-lethal spells overwhelmed William who was shrouded in cursefire, and then added a wave of reserves to his cursefire energy.This is William's choice. He would rather face the siege of a group of red-robed mages than be tortured by Simbu's shameless face.

William attracted a wave of firepower, and when he drew out the autumn water knife and was about to kill the red-robed mages who had been lying in wait for a long time, Simbu suddenly appeared from behind, knocked down and captured the hapless red-robed mages with magic.

William asked curiously: "Why don't you kill these guys, do you want to torture information from them?"

Simbu smiled and said, "Of course not! I know why these red robes are here. Don't you think they are very interesting toys?"

William had a dazed expression on his face, but he thought in his heart, do you have a habit of abusing prisoners.

Simbu proudly said: "I have a very interesting idea. You said, I will turn these guys into mares, and then the two of us will be transformed into Phils bulls. Do you think this game is very interesting?"

William felt a chill in his heart.

Fels Bull is a special animal near the Firstap Mountains in the Char area. It has the name of Teddy in the animal kingdom, and the nickname of Bo-Ai's perpetual motor.For any four-hoofed animal of reasonable size, an encounter with a Fels bull would be a terrifying nightmare.

William chattered like Mrs. Xianglin: "I shouldn't have asked you! I shouldn't have asked you! Send me away! It's too dangerous here! I'm going back to Shadow Valley!"

Simbu said with a smirk: "Unfortunately, I have used up all my teleportation spells, so you can only find a way by yourself. Or you can stay in my palace for one night, and I will send you away tomorrow."

"No!" William refused without hesitation: "Tell me the direction of Shadow Valley, and I will figure it out myself!"

Simbu subconsciously pointed to the west, and then he saw a pair of flaming wings protruding from behind William, and then he rushed up into the sky like a monkey jumping into the sky, and then disappeared into the sky like a shooting star.

Simbu looked at the trace of William going away, but he was surprised from ear to ear, what kind of spell is this, he has such extreme speed, maybe he can learn from him in the future.

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

The seven silver-haired sisters are not only famous for their beauty and strength, but also their eclectic life style.It can be said that their degree of "fraternity" is basically proportional to their reputation.

In this regard, Dove's behavior can be regarded as a clear stream among the silver-haired sisters that is more in line with William's moral concepts.After returning to Shadow Valley Town from the battlefield, Dove had already noticed the discord between the Shadow Valley people and the Dagger Valley people. When she deeply understood the root of the conflict, she couldn't help being surprised and angry.

The captain of the guard who is in charge of guarding the city gate is a noble knight, an out-and-out Shadow Valley native, and the most powerful supporter of the Lord of Shadow Valley, Huxgaard Moglin, otherwise he would not be able to sit as the captain of the city gate guard. important positions.

One thing to note is that in most cities of Faerun, the people in charge of city guard work (especially the officials) will always be the most loyal, reliable, and most rewarding confidantes of those in power in the entire city.

First of all, no one wants to wake up, only to find that the gate of their own city is already wide open, and enemies or monsters can pass through the city wall without hindrance, presenting a big surprise.

Another one is that the most lucrative position in a city and the most suitable position to earn extra money legally is the role of the city gate guard, not the tax officer as most people think.

The tax collector collects the money that belongs to the lord. If you want to hide part of it yourself, this is like poaching the lord's corner. Whose lord will be so generous.However, what the city guards searched for was the wealth of outsiders (known to the locals), or the wealth that the locals wanted to give away that should belong to their own city.

This is the consistent understanding of most of the illiterate lords in Faerun, including ordinary people. Many of them do not approve of trade, and they spare no effort to collect taxes from caravans, and they jokingly call it "shearing sheep".

In fact, except for a few well-known commercial cities that are more enlightened in the entire Faerun continent, most sheep shearers are actually picking sheep skins and chopping lamb legs.The more serious operation is that if the wool is really sheared, you take the wool and the sheep stay; or even people and sheep eat and wipe it off.

Shadow Valley is not considered a mature business district, so when their city guards deal with certain problems, they will not be more flexible and far-sighted, but always appear more harsh.

So when the city guard knight, who was accustomed to achieving his goals in a harsh way, tried to ensure that the lord of the dagger valley could continue to fight until the last moment by delaying the soldiers of the dagger valley from entering the city wall.

I have to say that this stupid knight's way of doing things is so short-sighted and ignorant, that is, the heroic and invincible lord was taken away by Simbu first, otherwise I really don't know when the bloody lord learned about it After the truth that his soldiers were treated harshly, will they immediately turn their faces?

I hope that Xinbu can reward him well and heal the anger in that lord's heart!This was the only thought in Dove's mind at the moment.By the way, Dove beat up the city guard knight severely. Just by looking at the knight's bruised nose and swollen face, it was clear that the silver-haired female warrior was merciless when she attacked.

And Dove also left a warning, before the lord of Dagger Valley returns, it is best for the idiot knight not to use spells to heal his injuries.

It can only be said that IQ is a good thing, but unfortunately some people always like to throw it in the trash, and then show their superiority with arrogance.

In fact, the city guard Garapuno is not stupid. On the contrary, he is a very shrewd veteran noble knight. When the "fraudulent" Jodohan ruled the Shadow Valley, he had already emerged among the officials of the Shadow Valley.And when the archmage Kelben Black Rod Olosan from Waterdeep City killed Jodohan and established a new lord, Galapuno was the first to stand up and express his support.

Few people know that Galapuno actually has a bigger ambition hidden.

As we all know, Omri Obersky became Lord of Shadowdale in 1300 AD, ruling here with his wife Shiron Silverhand.After Omri Obassky was assassinated, although Shellen did not take over the throne, she was the true uncrowned king of Shadow Valley. The appointment and dismissal of any lord or the governance of Shadow Valley cannot be avoided. Influence.

On the bright side, a magical amulet called [Ashaba's Pendant] represents the dominion of Shadow Valley.This magical amulet is a token left by the great wizard Ashaba who rescued the Shadow Valley from the slavery of the dark elves hundreds of years ago. At the same time, Ashaba is also the first legal lord of the Shadow Valley in the true sense .

But people with real brains know that the former lord's widow, the uncrowned Queen of Shadow Valley, Ms. Shiron, is the one who can really determine the lord's position.

Just like her other sisters, Helen sometimes can't control her belt, which makes Galapuno have a different idea. He is intoxicated by Helen's charm, and also covets the influence that Helen represents He wants to become Shiron's new husband, and then use it to ascend to the throne of Lord of Shadow Valley.

When William set foot in the town of Shadow Valley and said that his relationship with Ms. Helen was unusual, Garapuno understood one thing. William, who is brave and good at fighting, will be his biggest competitor in the future, whether in love or career above.

However, Galapuno was not afraid of William. It should be said that no Shadow Valley person would be afraid of a Dagger Valley person.There is no doubt that the people of Shadowdale are arrogant in front of the people of Daggerdale, and of course they have reasons for being arrogant.

The people of Zhentilburg, who had conquered and ruled Dagger Valley for a long time, failed countless times under the walls of the people of Shadow Valley.

So many times stupidity is not a sin, but arrogance is the real original sin.

Galapuno wants to create a confrontation between the Shadow Valley he represents and the Dagger Valley people headed by William, so as to cut off the possibility of some threatening guys coveting the domination of Shadow Valley.

What?You say take care of the overall situation?Don't talk about it, just relying on the weak guys sent by Dagger Valley, the average per capita is less than five levels in game terms, what big things can be done in this tide of monster invasion.

Moreover, the William family humiliated Cormyr's son and brother as soon as they came up, and slapped Lord Moglin in the face. Even if he deliberately made things difficult for the people of Dagger Valley, I believe the Lord will turn a blind eye.

In many cases, city-state politics is all about human feelings.To talk about the close relationship between Lord Moglin and Florin Eaglehand, we have to start with Jodohan the fraudster.

After Kelben Blackrod killed Jodohan, Shiron ruled the Valley of Shadows in an unofficial capacity for a period of time (about three years), and later Kelben Blackrod strongly invited A young man, Florin Hawkhand, came to serve as the lord of Shadow Valley, but it was a pity that Florin, who was in the torment of losing his beloved, refused without hesitation.

Florin Hawkhand's first love was a female knight who was adventuring with him, and was killed by a Khajiit during the adventure battle in the Valley of Shadows.

Although Florin Eaglehand did not take over the lordship of Shadow Valley, he recommended another adventure partner of his—Dust Suwo, an elf knight from Myth Draenor, as the lord.Dust Suwo is a romantic elf who prefers adventures to political activities. When he was the lord, he promoted Haxguard Moglin as the acting lord.

Huxguard Moglin briefly joined Florin Hawkhand's early adventures as a native of Shadowvale before acting as lord.

After several years of studying like this, Su Wo resolutely resigned from the position of lord, and Haxguard officially became the real lord of Shadow Valley.It can be said that the position of the Lord of the entire Shadow Valley circulated within this adventure group that was later called the "Mysterious Zano Knights" like drumming and passing flowers.

When Misha'er made fun of Florin Hawkhand, it was actually equivalent to humiliating the entire upper echelons of Shadow Valley, because Florin Hawkhand was a main link in the change of the Shadow Valley lord's position in recent decades. This is also the reason why most people with discerning eyes and even gods try their best to match Fu Luolin and Dove's marriage.

This is the reason why Galapuno has no fear of embarrassing the people of Dagger Valley.Although he was powerless to resist Dove's beating, he would not compromise in order to appease the anger of the Dagger Valley people.From Galapuno's point of view, even if the brave lord of Dagger Valley came back, at most he would beat him again in a rage, and he just took the opportunity to start a wave of confrontation.

As for whether William will kill him, don't joke about it.As the lord of a state, William must pay attention to the demeanor and decency of a lord, right? He is not afraid that the new Dagger Valley will be completely hostile to the old shadow valley? !Galapuno has thoroughly studied the psychology of superiors, and this is the price of being in a high position. It is not as good as a small person like him who can do things as he wants.

It's a pity that Galapuno calculated everything correctly, but missed a very crucial point, William's true thoughts.

A fireball flew from the eastern sky, and soon landed in Shadow Valley Town, but it landed on a dilapidated old house. Half of the roof of the house was missing, and the bright opening seemed to be mocking the sky.

William's family and servants and guards were temporarily stationed in this dilapidated old house. It was obvious that they had been treated unfairly during William's absence. After all, they used to live in a warm and comfortable hotel. .

When William was away, Phinea's brain couldn't handle this kind of situation being targeted, but Cheval Starpao became the backbone of the big guy with his wisdom.

ha?Guys, I'm panicking too!When did the half-elf who was always excluded by society become the leader? !

A half-elf with a little understanding of city-state politics is actually a two-handed sword. She "wisely" chose to accept it, and avoided those overt and covert targets by temporarily retreating.

As for the idea of ​​rebellion, sorry, half-elves have none of it.Not to mention anything else, let's just talk about the strength of these people, except for the unreliable family members of the lord, their strength is indeed seen by everyone, but it is a pity that the big brains are not reliable, the young age is not reliable, and A smaller oil bottle (Selur), in short, is not reliable.

Cheval Starcloak is the most powerful servant guard from Dagger Valley, but it's a pity that she is an ordinary character in the comparison of Shadow Valley, how hard do you make her stand up.

After all, the time to follow William is still short, and the people of Dagger Valley who have been troubled by disasters have not yet developed the arrogance of being arrogant, let alone the arrogance of being alone.

Here I have to say that our Chinese nation can be said to be the only existence of civilization and pride in the world. We are at the bottom of the valley and seek rejuvenation, and we are calm when encountering strong enemies. The existence of "the theory of a certain disaster" is two completely different realms.

When William landed, his family and his subordinates were venting their dissatisfaction with complaints. Not only was the place to live poor, but the supplies sent by the people of Shadow Valley were so poor that they were hard to eat. Moldy food, stinky bacon, and The bread that the mice have eaten, the rotten fruit, the people of Shadow Valley definitely want to make trouble.

Cheval was so exhausted that he collapsed. What about the demeanor of city-state politics?What about the face between diplomatic relations?The half-elf doubted the civilized diplomacy that he had learned before, so it was no different from street hooligans!

Just when Xieval Xingpao earnestly persuaded everyone to wait for Lord William to come back before looking for a place, William fell from the sky.The moment the little girls saw William, tears welled up from their eyes. The anger and grievance in their hearts exploded at once, but they threw themselves into William's arms and cried loudly. .

Even those adult guards and servants couldn't help but have red eye circles after seeing William, the real pillar.At this moment, they were like children who had been bullied outside and saw their parents, and their grievances and dissatisfaction were immediately supported. They gathered around William one after another, telling how the people of Shadow Valley had run on them.

Among them, Xerval Starcloak was the most exaggerated. She was the one with the most stress among all the people, but the half-elf was sitting on the ground and crying loudly. It was as heartbreaking as if her parents had remarried.

Of course, it's not that there are heartless guys. For example, Phinea would only smile cheerfully at William. She had experienced similar grievances before meeting William, and she had long been used to it.She would never shed tears and be sad for such a trivial matter, if it is really in a hurry, it will be a big deal and just chop it with an axe.

When William understood all the things he didn't know, he was immediately filled with anger, and an inexplicable killing intent lingered in his heart.

Nima!I beat you to death because of you, but you little maidservants stab me in the back. Uncle can bear it! Auntie can't bear it!This is to force me to kill!

As the saying goes, with a sharp blade in your body, you will kill yourself.William sits in a celestial phenomenon in the world of flames, has thousands of armors under his command, and tens of thousands of servants. How could he tolerate his own son being wronged like this.

But anger is anger, and if you want to vent this anger with reason and evidence, you have to pay attention to the method.

This is called murder.

Of course, the hungry family members and subordinates had to be fed first. There was a lot of food and food stored in William’s Fire Spirit Armband. This was the spare food for their group, and now it was just taken out to fill the stomachs of the big guys.

But in front of an ancient castle not far from the city of Zhentil Castle in the north, four capable men and women are sneaking into it, an assassin, a warrior, a priest, and a beautiful female mage.

Few people know that a far-reaching event is about to be staged here.

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

However, just when William and his party boiled water and cooked a fairly sumptuous meal to reward their companions who had suffered a lot, a violent fluctuation of magical energy erupted somewhere in the north. Ordinary people have no effect, only those spellcasters who are connected to the magic net can feel the tremor from the magic net.

However, some of the voters of the Goddess of Magic, such as the Silver-haired Seven Sisters, Elminster the Great Sage, etc., can clearly feel the mania of the Goddess of Magic. It is obvious that their god is fighting, and the opponent should be another god. .

In fact, a few days ago, the voters of the goddess of magic had already felt the call from the goddess, asking them to come to the rescue.It's a pity that none of the voters carefully trained by the second-generation goddess of magic, Mystra, responded to their god's call.

Of course, it's no wonder Elminster and the seven silver-haired sisters refused to respond to the goddess' call. Sammaster, another elector of the goddess of magic, had studied the nature of "electors" and caused a huge controversy. An unprecedented catastrophe of voter mutiny.

Speaking of Sammaster, he is also a true legend.

Sammaster is an orphan, and he has had a hard life since he was a child (this buddy started as a proper American villain, he was sickly, taciturn, extremely smart but neurotic), when he came into contact with magic, he was already very old.For a normal magic apprentice, this is undoubtedly a great misfortune, because it means that it is difficult for him to achieve something on the road of magic.

However, Sammaster's magical talent is so high that it is rare in the world.Also learning a spell, when others are complacent about learning to use a certain magic, Sammaster is already thinking about the principle of this spell, exploring why the magic works and where it comes from .

Soon Sammaster came into contact with the true meaning of magic - the magic net, and was gradually valued by the mysterious lady Mysla, the guardian of the magic net.

This Mystra and his chosen people are also a virtue, often unable to control their belts.Not surprisingly, he smiled mercilessly at the older pure-love-little-virgin-boy, and took away his first time without hesitation, when Sammaster was 50 years old.

A man who will hide his love for 50 years in his heart once it bursts out is terrible. Sammaster is crazy about his obsession with the mother of magic. He thinks he loves the Goddess more than anyone else , And gave birth to a rare monopoly - desire.To put it bluntly, Sammaster took the goddess's heart away, but this point is far less free and easy than his fellow voter, Elminster. That master is very open, he Only take the kidney.

Of course, the Goddess of Magic knows the thoughts of her chosen one, but she is a real god, how could she give up the entire green prairie and dense forest for a single dogtail grass.

So Sammaster was sent to study with Ilminster. Mysra's original intention was to let Sammaster learn how to get along with the goddess from Mr. Ilminster, but the innocent little Sa only wanted to have a good time. Learn magic for the goddess.Then when Elminster pointed out that Sammaster's love for the goddess was wrong, Sammaster almost turned against him completely. At that time, little Sa regarded Elminster as his first enemy.

The Goddess of Magic was very distressed by Sammaster's paranoia, but soon she came up with a way of Li Daitao's stiffness.The seven silver-haired sisters are nominally the daughters of the Goddess of Magic. Mystra chose the one with the most similar appearance and temperament to herself among the seven sisters, and became Sammaster's wife.

This man was Alustriel Silverhand.

The appearance of Alastriol satisfied all Sammaster's fantasies about the goddess. He poured all his emotions into his wife, but it made Mystra secretly proud of the success of his plan.

However, everyone, even the goddess of magic, has overlooked one point. Not only is Alustriel similar in appearance and temperament to the goddess, but some of her life styles are even more lively than the goddess, and her belt is bigger than all the sisters. Goddesses are much looser.

Poor!

Sammaster's brain was so green that it almost turned black. He raped Alastriol at home, but he forgave her betrayal infatuatedly.He imprisoned Alustriel, and had many children with her, one after another, almost without a break.It wasn't until more than ten years later that Sammaster discovered that it was not the real Alustriel who had been giving birth to him all the time, but the goddess of magic who temporarily lived in Alustriar's body, and the children they gave birth to, But it became a consumable for the goddess to strengthen herself.

As a result, Sammaster discovered the true meaning of the elect, and he was completely disappointed, and his feelings for the goddess also collapsed immediately.Sammaster summoned the other voters in the name of Alustriel, and released the real Alustriar through the hands of Kelben and Lyra.

Sammaster has since become a traitor among the elect, though his findings on the nature of the elect are not taken with him, but are widely disseminated among all elect.

So when the Goddess of Magic issued a call to her chosen people, no one responded to her, except for a rookie who had just been selected.For those Chosen of Sammaster's time knew well what their true duty was, and what would happen in response to the Goddess' call.

But the tremors of the magic net are particularly frequent today, which makes all the voters of the goddess of magic feel uneasy. They are eager to understand the current status of the goddess, but it is a pity that it is difficult for anyone to do this, because the failure rate of using magic now Too high.

Of course, William could also feel the instability from the magic net, but he didn't take this abnormality seriously. After all, William rarely used the power of the magic net, and he didn't often use spells.

However, the half-elf protector Cheval Starcloak is in a miserable situation. She is the real person who relies on magic to make a living. It can be said that magic is all the value of her life. When this value is threatened by interference, her panic And uneasiness is also the meaning of the title.

William and his party had eaten and drank enough, so of course it was time to make trouble.

They put on armor, sharpened their swords, and took the junk food sent by the people of Shadow Valley, swaggeringly headed for the largest gathering place in the town - the Old Skull Hotel.

William wants to give the people of Shadow Valley a big "surprise" in return for their "care" for them.Of course, as for whether this surprise is what the people of Shadow Valley like, that's unknown.

The Old Skull Hotel is located on the earth cliff on the bank of the Asaba River, and there are more houses scattered around it. They are weapon shops, armor workshops, herb houses, grocery stores, bakeries, and of course mysterious magic. cabin.

Normally, Shadow Valley is indeed a good place for adventure. There are enough monsters and quests waiting for people to complete, and there are enough ancient ruins waiting for adventurers to explore. Of course, there is also a dangerous underground dark world waiting for warriors. open up.

It's just that the monster's invasion has now given everyone a big blow. Except for the still bustling old Skull Hotel, other shops are basically deserted. Occasionally, people go to the weapon shop or armor workshop to repair equipment. He looked like he was in a hurry.

The reason why the Old Skull Hotel was still bustling when the monsters besieged the city was that it was the only place in the entire town that was open to serve alcohol.

The owner of the hotel, Ms. Jarre Silvermane, is an excellent operator and an eloquent communicator. She has traveled many places and was a poor adventurer for a while, but of course she is no longer When she was young, she would only reminisce about the unforgettable green years in the bragging of the guests.

Ms. Jale has a good friendship with many big figures in Shadow Valley. She often points to a certain location to tell those unruly guests: Lord Moglin often tastes small wine cakes here anonymously. Great Sage Ilmin Sturt likes to sit alone in this place and enjoy a glass of mellow honey wine quietly.

There is also the storm lady with a scourge face, who often drinks with strangers at these tables. If a certain man is lucky enough, he may have the opportunity to climb into the bed of that bitch and enjoy a rare night. romantic.Of course, this last sentence was said by Ms. Jarrah in secret. If someone asked about it in person, the hotel owner would always deny it righteously.

Some older people know something inside. When she was young, Jarr Silvermane was a hot red-haired girl. Her trouser belt was tied tightly with the belt of an old man known as a great sage. , This is also one of the reasons why she later settled down and opened a store in Shadow Valley Town. Well, the relationship between her and Ms. Storm was really not very friendly.
