The Swordsman of Faerûn

He pointed to the depths of the pile of rocks and said, "Someone has already laid a trap inside, waiting for us to send it to the door. Do you think we should stop?"

The old mage circled around the entrance of the rock pile a few times, looked at the environment here, and then said: "There is bad news. William, the rocky canyon in front of us is a must for us to go to the overlapping land. Even if there is an ambush there, we have to rush over."

Then the old mage changed his words again and said: "I'm a little curious, William, how did you lead us to get rid of those shadow spirits? Do you really have the ability of a prophet? But I don't think it's possible, I think You must have an unknown method to avoid the enemy."

Elminster has lived for more than 1000 years, and he has seen many amazing and talented people in his life. Among them, there are definitely not a few guys who call themselves prophets, but these so-called prophets, whether they are famous or Those who are secretive will not escape the end of being falsified in the end.

Of course, Elminster did know that there is indeed a kind of existence in this world that is qualified to be called a prophet, and that is the legendary sage of the heavens-Kong Randa.

Elminster is sure that William is definitely not a golden monkey, so there must be something wrong with his "precognition" ability.

William didn't want to argue with the old mage, he replied absent-mindedly: "Since you think I am not (a prophet), then count me as not."

He patted Selena, who had been sleeping all the way in his arms, and said, "Since you've already woken up, don't lie to me and pretend to be asleep. Go get ready, we may go through a whole lot of trouble next time." A bad fight."

Selena's thin body trembled slightly, but she stretched her waist on purpose. She yawned, pretending to have just woken up, and said to herself, "Ha——Where is this place? Am I already dead? Did you? Oh, my lord, so I'm not dead! Thank you for saving me again, and letting me sleep in your arms. I really don't know how to repay you.

Otherwise, I will promise myself! "

William snapped the little thief girl's finger, and said angrily: "You little yellow-haired girl with no flesh, thinking about unhealthy things all day long. Get ready, I may not have a chance to protect you this time." !"

Selena held her forehead with her hands, gave William a sad look, and then bounced around to find Brunhilde to discuss small things.It has to be said that Valkyrie's plan to buy the little thief girl with equipment was so successful that Dove, who met the little girl first, was not very popular on weekdays.

Dove has fought side by side with William many times, and she knows how exaggerated William's strength will be in this kind of battle with outnumbered enemies.Dove asked, "William, how are you going to get through this canyon?"

William didn't answer Dove's question directly, but took out a piece of straw cake from his pocket, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it slowly.This is an adventure biscuit specially carried by their group, and it is a ration made of a unique magic grass leaf.

Although the taste of this thing is not very good, it has many advantages, such as storage resistance and strong environmental adaptability. Once many traditional foods arrive at another completely different plane, some unpredictable changes will occur, such as decay. , deterioration, poisoning, etc.

And this kind of adventure biscuit only needs a small piece to meet the needs of an adult for a whole day, and it feels full.

After chewing and swallowing some tough biscuits, William said: "There is no other way, but to kill all the way. It's a pity that we can't reveal our identities now, otherwise releasing a few cursed fire phoenixes will be enough to wipe out the vast majority." Most of the enemies. Now we can only use stupid methods to fight a bloody path with the knives and guns in our hands."

Speaking of this, William warned several people with a solemn expression: "This time I will charge forward as fast as possible. You must follow me closely, and you must not fall behind. I may not have a chance to turn around and save you. Especially It's Selena, you just recovered from a serious injury, I'm worried whether you have enough physical strength to catch up with us."

Selena was also holding an adventure biscuit at this time, and she said in a vague voice while chewing: "Don't underestimate me, Sir William, I am the best thief in Creeping City, and I run as fast as the wind. Nobody has ever caught up to me on the street."

This little thief girl seemed to be bragging a bit, but no one saw her through.

Elminster stroked his gray beard and said: "William, I suspect that the opponent we are about to face may be the most terrifying existence among the shadow spirits-the Sorrower. These half-human, half-crow guys are not good. To deal with them, and they are likely to be commanded by a powerful death lord, I doubt whether we can kill them smoothly."

The Sorrowsworn are the most loyal servants of the Raven Queen. They were originally shadow spirits. After experiencing difficult missions and trials, these guys who have proved their loyalty will be transformed into black crow wings by the Raven Queen, waving A mutant with a deadly scythe.

The death lord is a powerful existence similar to the flame lord, the difference is that the death lord belongs to the undead creature in the realm of death.As far as William's life rank is concerned, the death lord is an existence that can rival him on equal terms.

After a short rest, William took out his full set of equipment from the Fire Spirit Armband and put it on. Of course, there were some more recognizable equipment, but William stayed in the army of the expedition to the Mist Valley on the main material plane. Dee will find suitable people to wear them and disguise them as William, in order to deceive some interested people.

William was wearing dragon leather armor, wearing keel spike boots, holding a two-foot long spear, flying knives and dart feathers lined up on his waist and hips, Qiushui knife was walking around, and behind him was Selena, this little girl The girl also looked capable. Of course, her only mission was to keep up with William, so as not to be left behind.

Next, Dove, the old mage, and Brynhildr lined up in a zigzag shape. They had to take care of the important task of breaking the back when they were running, especially Brynhilde. Among all of them, the melee role is second only to William.

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

William's advancing speed is not very fast, at least Selena can keep up with trotting, not to mention the three of Dove, at most they only need to speed up the frequency of their steps to keep up with William's advancing speed.

But when an intercepting enemy appeared beside them, they realized how difficult it was to maintain William's advancing speed.

The interceptors who first jumped out of the pile of rocks were a group of shadow spirits. These shadow spirits with wave-shaped scimitars were extremely sturdy. They brandished heavy scimitars and killed them without thinking about their own lives.However, William swung the spear, and the two-foot-long blade instantly turned into an arc of light and sliced ​​through the necks of the two fastest rushing shadow spirits. Dark blood spurted from the torn wounds. out.

William's footsteps were like bows, but he still kept moving forward at a constant speed. He unleashed the two-foot long spear in his hand, and the tip of the spear shone like stars among the figures of the shadow spirits, so that these brave warriors were not even close. , was shot and killed by William.

As the saying goes, one inch is longer and one inch is stronger, and the two-foot long spear can be said to have taken advantage of these interceptors' scimitars that are at most three or four feet long.

William took eleven steps forward and killed six Shadow Spirit scimitar fighters. It was almost a two-step kill. It was extremely brutal. Even the companions behind William were shocked by his terrifying killing efficiency. up.Dove had seen the demeanor of William's horse fighting and charging, but she was still shocked by the ferocity of William's battle.

And Brunhilde finally understood that William's record of killing dozens or hundreds of githyankis like chopping melons and vegetables last time was not a joke like a fairy tale. .

After witnessing the horror of William, the rest of the shadow spirits rushed towards William fearlessly, regardless of the casualties of their companions or their own lives.

Especially when they realized that no matter how much they dodged, they couldn't escape William's attack, one by one even gave up dodging and defense directly.Holding the thought of "Even if you stab me to death with one shot, I will slash you with a knife", they attacked William's advancing line one after another.

Facing the desperate charge of the shadow spirits, even with William's bravery, he felt the pressure. He swung the spear in his hand more quickly, including Qiu Shuidao, who was walking by the side of his teammates, joined the killing sequence , just suppressed the momentum of this wave of enemies.

Fortunately, the number of enemies intercepted by this first wave is limited, and the shadow spirits have a relatively single type of arms. Due to William's too brutal performance, the enemy's attention is basically focused on him, but the companions behind him Basically, they all acted as spectators, only Selena secretly shot a crossbow arrow at an enemy, which was finally better than nothing.

After William killed the last enemy in front of him, he let out a long breath. He looked back at the scattered ghost corpses behind him, and said involuntarily, "I didn't expect these people to be so brave. It's really admirable. If the next enemies are all such daring warriors, we are afraid that we will be in serious trouble."

Elminster looked at William with the eyes of a monster, and said: "These guys are the chargemen among the Shadow Spirits—the Blade of Darkness. They can't be considered complete now, after all, after losing their shadow power, The combat effectiveness must have declined. It's just that this fearless combat style is a bit strange. It seems that I guessed it right, there is at least one death lord in charge here.

We're really in big trouble. "

However, William raised his spear and said: "We have no way out now. Even though there are thousands of troops ahead, we can only go to the dark one way! Brunhilde! You and I will take turns in a while." Charge and kill, let's see if we can kill the enemy!"

Brünnhilde agreed, but her weapon was a claw hammer, which is the best weapon to break through the formation. Brünhilde swung the hammer and strode into the next section of rocks. In the densely populated area, seeing an enemy blocking the way, he immediately smashed it with a hammer.

The enemy was wearing a thick dark cloak, which turned out to be a sharp odd-shaped war scythe. Facing Brunhilde's attack, he first stepped back, and then he slammed the scythe horizontally, but was hit by Brunhilde with a hammer. What was even more surprising was that the enemy holding the scythe flew higher and higher after being smashed, and there was no sign of falling.

Brunhild immediately came to her senses that the other party could fly. Of course, the reason why she reacted so quickly was because Brunhild could also fly.

Brunhilde suddenly felt that she might be the most important role in this battle, because she was the only one who could engage in air combat with the enemy.

Usually, when Brunhilde was guarding the Angel Reef, she acted prudently and acted cautiously, with a bit of a general style, but it didn't mean that she was like this by nature.At this moment, facing this surprise attack with disparity in strength between the enemy and us, Brunhilde completely let go of herself. After all, in her opinion, even if all of them were killed in battle, it would only hurt a few insignificant mortals. The strategic fortresses in the heavens such as Angel Reef are definitely not the same.

Therefore, Brunhilde just greeted his companions behind him, then spread out his disguised wings, soared into the sky, and went to the air to hunt down the fleeing enemy.

William looked at Brunhilde's figure in the air, but couldn't help but snorted coldly. He knew that this winged woman was a bit unreliable, but it would be good to have her in the air to attract the attention of the enemy, at least those flying crow soldiers ( Sorrower) will definitely regard Brunhilde, who has air combat capabilities, as the greatest threat, but this can reduce the pressure on their floor flow.

A Sorrow Sworn led Brunhilde away, but it didn't mean that no other Sorrow Sworn came to hunt them down. Soon, two crow soldiers swooped in with their scythes. They were still infantrymen. They rushed forward, but facing William's attack, they couldn't get away with their own flying ability.

The war spear pierced the neck of a mourner like lightning, and the poor guy couldn't even believe that the blade came so fast before he died.

The other Sorrower only came in time to let out a cry of grief, and he immediately spread the black wings on his back and was about to fly high, but William swung his spear and directly picked up the body of the Swearer who was stabbed to death. He came over and knocked the panic-stricken enemy to the ground.

William strode forward with a shot, directly stabbing the enemy to death.

After killing the two blockers, William led the remaining three people forward quickly. After walking for a while, he suddenly slowed down, put his hand on his ribs, and suddenly threw two flying arrows into the air. The knife, but heard two dull cries of pain, two dark figures flew from the misty mid-air to the ground, and then there was a low wailing sound.

However, Selena rushed to the place where the enemy fell, and then heard only two short hisses, and then there was no sound. Only the little thief ran back with a smile, chasing William's footsteps and moving forward.

Afterwards, along the road from time to time, there were two or three sad oathers who came to make a surprise attack. Some of them rushed forward like infantry, and some attacked directly from the air, but without exception, these attackers fell to William's battle gun And the flying knife, but the Qiushui knife wandering by his side has never been used.

The group has almost broken through most of the rocky canyon, but they have never encountered such a powerful block as the shadow blades they encountered for the first time, and Brunhilde, who flew out to hunt down the enemy, was nowhere to be seen. However, this made William and others feel rather strange.

Suddenly a figure plummeted down from the sky, and with the piercing sound of piercing the air, another group of speeding figures plummeted.

Then there was Brunhilde's urgent cry for help: "William! William! Help me! Help me stop the enemies behind!"

William turned his back to the sky, and immediately threw a rain of darts into the air, but heard a few ragged grunts, and immediately, many figures turned over and fell into the pile of rocks, making a "poof" like a broken bag that fell to the ground. poof" sound.

The remaining black shadows finally felt the crisis. They flew around like a flock of frightened birds, but Brunhilde, who was running ahead, finally got a chance to breathe.

However, he saw the former star apostle leader descending from the sky with wings flapping, holding a strange figure in his hand.After Brunhilde landed, the figure with his hands up raised his hand and hurriedly said to William and the others: "I seem to have caught a very important person, and those black crows are almost going crazy. William! Everyone! Let's run quickly! "

William glared at Brunhilde coldly, but it made this bold and high-minded figure from the heavens feel terrified. The eyes of this guy are a bit scary.

William snatched the prisoner from Brunnhilde, but upon closer inspection, he found that it was a young shadow spirit. Judging from its appearance, it was estimated that it was not much older than Misha and the others. Although this little guy became a prisoner , but there was not much panic on the face, but curiously staring at the few people.

William asked, "Who are you?"

The shadow cub opened its dark eyes and didn't speak, but just looked at him blankly. Seeing that he couldn't ask anything, William asked Brunhilde, "Where did you snatch her from?"

Brunhilde pointed to the depths of the canyon and said: "There is a big altar over there, and many black crows are performing some kind of evil ceremony. I rushed up and grabbed a sacrifice and ran away. A hornet's nest. William, let's run! There are too many of them."

William pointed to the sky, and said angrily: "It's late! Look at the sky, tell me where to run?!"

Everyone raised their heads suddenly, but they saw that there were countless dense figures in the sky at some point, but they were the Sorrowers who spread their wings and soared. The mourner stared at the people on the ground in mid-air, quite like looking down on ants.

No one could hold their breath in front of these hundreds of pilots, even Elminster had the urge to drive away directly.

Looking up at the continuous black shadows in the sky, William couldn't help sighing, and muttered to himself: "Why are you forcing me? I just want to hide my identity to find a way out, but you insist on forcing me to kill, don't you? Can't you guys just settle down to your own business?"

He came to the old mage and said to Elminster, "Old man, lend me some of the energy in your body, and I will kill all the guys blocking the way."

Elminster trembled involuntarily, and asked in surprise, "You want to use that terrifying firebird? This may directly expose our identities."

William put one hand on the old mage's shoulder, but said in his mouth: "No! It's my other curse fire ability. I think it can be used to deal with these flying black crows."

Speaking of William directly activated the energy-absorbing properties of the curse fire, although Elminster was a little reluctant, he did not deliberately resist, and then countless magical energy was sucked out of the old mage's body, and then merged into it. William's curse fire.

This state of mana transmission lasted for quite a while, and the old mage even felt that William was like a bottomless pit, as if he was about to suck him dry in one fell swoop. Just when the old man was a little frightened, William finally stopped absorbing energy. At this moment, his eyes are as bright as stars in the night sky, but they are rare and strange colors in the entire shadow world.

But the old mage felt unprecedented ease at this moment.He has always been troubled by the power stored by the goddess of magic. The heavy pressure almost makes Elminster feel like he is carrying a heavy burden all the time. He doesn't even dare to use even the simplest spells at will. It can only temporarily provide spellcasting authority for others.

Of course, this feeling of relaxation can't last for too long. After just a few breaths, the old mage has clearly felt the power of the magic net rise.

William didn't care about the relieved smile on the face of the old mage, he directly stretched the wings of flame behind his back, and then kicked his feet suddenly, accompanied by the explosion of flames, William's whole body was like a monkey jumping into the sky Rush into the sky.

At this time, there is no more suitable blade weapon than the Autumn Water Knife. William put the Autumn Water Knife in front of his body, injected the energy of the curse fire to form a flaming blade several feet long, and then pushed the blade across the ground. Sprinting and hovering in the sky of the Sadsworn.

William was flying so fast, his flying speed was even close to the speed of sound propagation. Those mourners whose flying speed was almost as fast as a stupid sparrow couldn't avoid William's impact, let alone fight back.

Wherever William flew over, a corridor in the air could always be cleared, and large swaths of mourners were cut off by the flame blade, and then fell to the ground like hailstones.

Everyone was stunned by William's cruel aerial massacre that was almost child's play. No one thought that he still retained such a terrifying skill.

William's speedy killing was like using a flame-based eraser to smear the sky with an eraser. Those Sorrowers who thought they had a large number of people did not realize that they were the weaker side at first. It wasn't until after being swept away by William several times in a row that some people just woke up like a dream, and some people didn't have enough psychological endurance, and they even refused to believe that they were the one who was swept away.

They were like a swarm of bees that had lost their direction, scurrying back and forth in the sky without a clue, many panicked guys collided with their companions, and then fell like birds with broken wings.

They tried to form a team to fight against William, but they couldn't stop the impact of the flame blade. If they touch it, they will die, and if they touch it, they will die.Some also tried to escape to the distance, but William's speed was too fast, as if a high-end supercar was chasing a clumsy walking tractor with ease.

The first forty-nine chapters kill a dawn ([-])

But watching the flames pass by, crows chirp, the stars fade away and the moon falls like rain.After several battles, although there are thousands of owls and many vicious birds, they are all frightened and scattered, and finally the rain blows the wind away.

William used the [Humanoid Rocket Flying Technique], armed with the weapon of [Fire and Fire Slash], and rushed back and forth in the sky with extreme speed, but he killed the Sorrowers who almost filled the sky. , chicken fly egg beat.

I don't know how many sad swearers were killed and injured by him on the spot, and then fell to their deaths.

This day is the day of suffering for all the family members of the Queen of Crows. I don’t know how many years it took the Queen of Crows to accumulate the Legion of Crows, the Sorrowers, who was wiped out by William at once. Will the evil god regret that he didn't read the almanac when he went out today.

When William fell from the sky, there was no longer a crow soldier in the sky. Most of them had turned into corpses and fell around the rocky canyon. Only a few lucky ones rushed to the ground in advance Go up, find a corner and hide.

William, who returned triumphantly, returned to his companions, but what greeted him was not the admiration of his companions, at least not all of them. Selina still looked at her lord with reverent eyes, regardless of Brunshire De is still an old mage and Dove, both are a little afraid of William.

Without it, this guy's lethality is too terrifying. I thought his combat power on the ground was already invincible, but I didn't expect William who flew into the sky to be more than ten times fiercer, not to mention that he also has the ability to easily destroy the city. The magical killer weapon for destroying the country-the technique of big fireworks, how can others play with it, is it really going to be overwhelmed by him alone for the rest of his life?

These few people are people with deep thoughts and good associations when looking at problems. They always feel that William is a little too strong, so they must find a way to restrain him.

William sensed the ulterior motives of the three companions almost immediately, and he couldn't help saying "hold the groove" in his heart, what's wrong with these people, I just came back from a fierce battle, you guys are wrong The son of man just wants to hold back his legs and fight in the nest, can't he?

That is to say, William has a quick mind and amazing perception, so he can be aware of dangers and avoid them in advance, otherwise he really wouldn't know that all the partners around him have changed their minds, but he never made it public, and he didn't even show any superfluous strangeness, just in the bottom of his heart. Increased vigilance.

On the contrary, he has a great affection for the simple-minded little thief girl. This child is more reliable just by looking at it. Of course, it is just his partiality caused by his psychological changes.

Of course, there was another person who looked at William with twinkling eyes, but it was the shadow spirit child who was snatched by Brunhilde from nowhere.

The crisis on the top of the head is about to go, this little shadow spirit cub looks a little cute, and immediately becomes a little more lively. She blinked her too big eyes and stared at William, and then suddenly opened a pair of small hands begging for a hug .

William didn't want to be restrained by a child, he shook his head with a smile, just tapped the child's forehead with his fingers, and then signaled for someone else to take the child.

Of course, it is better to send the child back to the place where she should return, such as her parents and relatives.

However, although the child did not say anything about his origins, based on Brunhilde's description and guess, this poor little guy should be used as a sacrifice to an evil god, and it is estimated that her parents Not necessarily the right place to be.

But William really doesn't want to take a child to fight this time. After all, it is different from the situation when he took Misha'er and the others on an adventure. A bit of a "car bandit road hog" or something.

Now William and his party are in a bloody slaughter field, but they don't know how many difficulties and dangers are waiting for them ahead. If you bring a child at this time, are you making trouble?Do you really think you are Zhao Zilong from Changbanpo? !

Dove is the kindest person, so she took the initiative to take the cubs, and they moved on.

The terrain of the Rocky Canyon is rugged, but not complicated. It is a suitable battlefield for the Sorrowers who have the ability to fly. The death lord in the second half of the stone canyon-Dratos was deeply disturbed and confused.

Dratos is a female death lord. She is the guardian of the Palace of Fate, the castle of the Raven Queen, and the superior leader of the Sorrowsworn.

The reason why Dratos came to the Rocky Canyon this time was because the crow disappeared in the Palace of Destiny. The catastrophe of the gods came to the world, but not many people knew the inside story. The reason why the land of Faerun spread It is very wide, but it is because there have been more than one similar disasters here, and many local bosses have more experience with this kind of thing than people from other planes.

But this is the first time Dratos has encountered such a thing, and no one can mention her. In order to find his master, this powerful and loyal death lord resolutely brought the army and death priests to the chaos. Stone Canyon, trying to open up the connection with Naraku, another god of death, through a grand sacrifice.

It's a pity that the sacrifice was not very successful, and Naraku, the god of death, also couldn't be contacted. Even the sacrifice ceremony was desecrated by a sudden birdman, which made Dratos even more angry than panic.

The almost complete annihilation of the Sorrower made Dratos go crazy with fright. She began to desperately gather people, preparing to fight those damned enemies to the death, because the female death lord was already in despair. An important force was ruined, and she couldn't think of any way to make up for the loss of the Raven Queen except to use her own life to make atonement.

So when William and the others continued to go deep into the rocky canyon, they ran into the death lord's large army head-on.

The main force of the death lord's army should have been established necromancers. Their [Wake up the Undead] spell is a nightmare for the living on the battlefield. After all, no one wants to face the comrade who has just fallen and stands up to become an enemy The blow to the morale of the army in the cold weapon era is absolutely unparalleled.

However, the disconnection of the magic net has turned the Necromancers into proud Necromancer spells and turned them into decorations. This makes them forcefully enter the battlefield, but they are not much better than the humblest skeleton necromancers.

Then there are the powerful units of the Necromancer series, the Necromancer Warrior and the Necromancer Knight. They were all powerful warriors during their lifetime, and even after they became Undead after death, they still maintained most of their strength in life.The necromancer's bad behavior turned these elite necromancers into the sharpest knife in Dratos' hands.

But when it comes to the main force of the death lord army, it is not the undead who died once, but the living people, the shadow spirits.As an intelligent group of the Shadow Plane, the Shadow Spirits are a dominant race that occupies the general trend of the world. Whether it is their population or the quality of their elites, they are enough to disdain the entire Shadow Plane.

Just like what William and the others encountered, the elite fighters of the Shadow Spirit are the most difficult opponents.Among them are shadow fighters (William randomly named them) with a pair of fist blades in both hands, captors who use spiked chains, ghost shooters with bows, and even ghosts who control ferocious beasts—— Shadow Leopard.
