The old mage shook his head and said, "I don't. But I think you have, because you have changed your soul affiliation, and more than once."

William wanted to say, I have a fart way.But after all, he still kept his mouth shut and didn't say it out. Instead, he thought about it silently for a while, and then asked, "What should we do when we go home?"

The old mage said: "This portal can normally open an absolutely safe fixed-point coordinate transmission once a day. Of course, it can also open several unstable plane transmissions with the destination as Joseph's Garden. However, today's fixed-point transmission has been used. If William, if you want to take everyone back to Faerun safely, you'd better wait until the portal is restored tomorrow before leaving."

Waiting once a day is actually the recovery period for Caius after her soul is torn apart.

William nodded and said: "Then leave tomorrow. However, we have harvested a lot of spoils in the town of the frost giants in the abyss, and we need your help to open the demiplane for transporting materials."

The old mage said happily, "I'm happy to help."

In this way, the problem on the portal side was temporarily resolved, and William, the old mage and others returned to Utgard Town, where a mountain of loot was waiting for them to deal with.

But Brunhilde didn't go back, and with another scream from the embossed Caius, she went to Joseph's Garden through the portal.

Kaoyi's storage demiplane is an extremely large ice peak platform, its area is comparable to a medium-sized city, and it is easy to carry the spoils of Utgard Town.With the help of the old mage, it took William and the others a whole day to barely move the more valuable harvest.

If it wasn't for William's eagerness to return, they might have to dig up the town of the abyss frost giant. After all, any objects in the abyss can be brought to the main material plane, which is basically a more valuable foreign world. thing.

Of course, the premise is that you can bring it back.For other planes, the plane of the abyss is a world that only eats but does not eat. The demons will desperately prevent any creature from bringing the material belonging to the abyss out of the abyss.And those alien creatures who are not infected by the power of the abyss can leave smoothly, of course, there is a greater possibility that they will be made things difficult by the demons guarding the portal.

The souls infected by the power of demons can leave the abyss freely, because their destination is destined to belong to the abyss, but their bodies cannot leave, and the bodies they use outside the abyss are the power of the abyss to infect the outside world. Substitutes for the material reorganization of the world.

It can be said that every invasion of the abyss army, whether successful or failed, is an expansion of the abyss in terms of territory.Only hell does not eat the domineering laws of the abyss, which is why the abyss hates Bator hell more than the opposite heaven.

It is said that when William transported the booty of Utgard Town to the demiplane of Kaoyi, all the demons in the entire frozen ruins got a hint that in the direction of Utgard Town, There are all demonic creatures that must be eradicated.

In fact, this is the feedback from the will of the abyss to William's theft of materials from the abyss.

Not only the real demonic creatures, but also everyone around William. When night fell, everyone felt inexplicable whispers.

Catch the person who stole the material, seize the half-plane of Kaoyi, and then get the rich reward of the will of the abyss, these are the bewitching words that come to mind in everyone's heart.

It's a pity that everyone under William participated in the transportation of the loot, which made everyone a thief in the eyes of the abyss, so the so-called bewitching words became a joke.

After all, no matter how stupid a person is, he would not exchange his own life for the so-called "reward of the will of the abyss".

Of course, it is not without being seriously affected. Some cubs from the Frost Giant tribe from the frozen ruins have lived here for a long time, and their bodies and souls are inevitably infected by the power of the abyss. Their "betrayal" of the abyss is naturally It incurs punishment, as long as they stay within the radiation range of the will of the abyss, these children will become extremely weak.

However, this didn't really bother William. Although the temperature in the flame world made the frost giant feel uncomfortable, it was at least much better than these children being tortured by the will of the abyss.

The next day, when William and his party headed for Stoddt's Gate with the lightly armed frost giant cub army, flying demons began to appear in the surrounding sky one after another. The team marked as Demonic Enemies by Will attacks.

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

Demon Enemy is a very unique identity mark, it will not only attract the hostility of all demons, when outside the abyss, all people with the mark of "Evil Enemy" will receive a powerful destiny blessing , all their attacks will cause extremely considerable damage to demonic creatures.

Of course, only after William and the others leave the abyss can they enjoy the benefits of the "enemy of the devil". Now they have to bear the negative effects of this identity, that is, the indiscriminate hostility from all the devils of the abyss.

Due to the invasion of the Frost Army from the Ice Plane, most of the demons in the frozen ruins were almost attracted to the Ice Front Battlefield to face the Frost Army, so that there were hardly any grown-ups around the area where William and the others were located. Among the group of demons, only a very few lonely demons have the opportunity to come to die immediately.

However, these reckless demons did not cause any trouble to William and his party. William was always able to spot the traces of these demons first, and then the frost giant cubs who were almost armed to the teeth directly stepped forward to set fire on the enemy, causing the demons Very simply and neatly fell on the way to charge.

It wasn't until the flying demon appeared in midair that William had no choice but to personally participate in the head-on fight.

No way, he is basically the only one in the whole team who is "good at" air combat. Of course, if Brunhilde hadn't left, she could be regarded as a powerful air combat unit, but it's a pity that this bird—the mother-in-law lost the chain at a critical moment. It's gone, so I can only rely on William to carry the flight—the line of soldiers.

Fortunately, the most important indicator of air combat laning is speed, and William's flying speed is enough to make all flying demons feel desperate.When he activated the [Rocket Flight] and turned into an arc of light to sweep away demons in the sky of the abyss, any demons who dared to stay in the sky would only become lambs to be slaughtered.

Can't catch up, can't escape, can't dodge, sometimes even the shadow can't be seen, only the flame light band released when the curse fire energy spews violently, which indicates that William has just passed by this trajectory.

Unlike killing demons on the Material Plane, demons killed in the Abyss leave behind real demon corpses, which means that William's companions can reap the spoils.

Real demonic bodies are really very good things. Their whole bodies are treasures, whether it is skin, meat, bones, blood, hair, nails, or even feces and urine, they are all treasures on the main material plane. It is a rare treasure magic material.

As the top spellcaster in Faerun, the old mage Elminster naturally knows this kind of thing clearly. After he told the frost giant this information, the cubs who were used to it immediately carried forward the style of not leaving any grass behind. , disemboweled the demon corpses on the spot, skinned and dismantled the bones, and harvested every bit of the demon corpses shot down by William.

Some people may ask why the demon's corpses are not taken directly, but decomposed on the spot.

This involves some unique plane characteristics of the abyss.

First of all, a complete demon corpse cannot be truly brought out of the abyss, but a separately separated demon stump can be after special treatment.

Moreover, carrying a complete demon corpse is a very dangerous thing. No one knows whether these demon corpses will be revived in the form of undead. Although this kind of thing has a lot of randomness, under the attention of the will of the abyss, "Randomness" becomes universal - sex is also predictable.

The cold and frozen ruins are not a very suitable plane for flying demons to survive, so the flying demons here are relatively limited in terms of both types and numbers. A kind of sub-dragon with the blood of the white dragon, whose appearance is similar to the wyvern on the main material plane), and a few quasi demon queens, almost no longer see the uninvited guests from the sky.

This allowed William and his party to reach Stoddt's Gate smoothly.

Of course, the reason why it went so smoothly is thanks to the Goddess of Magic. It was because of her that the magic net was disconnected, so that the demons in the entire abyss were basically unable to use the teleportation spell to quickly arrive at the scene to intercept William and the others.

At this time, no matter whether it is the lowest coward or the most powerful demon lord, they can only rely on their own legs, feet or wings for physical travel, and then they have to travel long distances in front of the hopelessly vast area of ​​​​the various layers of the abyss. .

And the next thing William and the others have to do is to activate the portal and send their own troops to Faerun, and then this adventure will be considered as an end.

With the old mage Elminster present, the activation of the portal went smoothly, but the way the old mage activated the portal gave William a sense of dislocation in time and space.

But the old mage reached out and clicked on the screen wall of the portal (similar to a display screen), and wrote a series of space-time coordinates representing a certain area of ​​Faerun on it with magic power, and then typed in the permission command.

Accompanied by a shrill scream from the arch-relief Kais, the portal was activated, and a mirror emitting a strange light appeared in the middle of the stone—the arch. Dove walked into the portal first, and then Phinea They lined up with the frost giant cubs carrying the spoils and entered the mirror one by one.

Selena and Kaoyi were at the end, but just as they were about to step into the portal, there was a rumbling sound from a distance, accompanied by extremely restless roars and howls, and then they saw the endless The line of demon soldiers surged from the sky.

The army of demons summoned by the will of the abyss came.

The faces of several people changed drastically, this time they were really in big trouble.

Selena screamed immediately: "William, let's run!"

The old mage shouted in despair: "You can't run! William, now it's not a question of whether to run or not! We are finished! We have caused a disaster! If we escape directly, these demons will definitely pour into Faerun through the portal , when the time comes, the entire land of Faerun will usher in a catastrophe."

William frowned and asked, "Can't we just close the portal now?"

The old mage said: "The problem is not the closing of the portal, but the space-time coordinates we input. William, you should already know the truth of magic, the disconnection of the magic net is only temporary. As long as the portal is still open Now, the demons can restart the portal through the backtracking spell, and follow the path we walked directly to the Shadow Valley of Faerun. At that time, the entire valley and even the Sword Coast region will become a wild - carnival - hunting ground for demons. "

William looked at the line of demon soldiers approaching quickly in the distance, and asked solemnly: "Is there nothing we can do?"

Elminster sighed and said, "There are ways, but we need a legion strong enough to resist the demon's attack."

William took a deep look at the old mage, how could he fail to understand the old man's thoughts, wasn't he just staring at his little wealth in the flame world? !

But it should be said, William is not an overly selfish person after all, he said: "Okay! I will call the army of flames to help the battle. But you have to remember, old man, you owe me this time, don't think that I Didn't know you were plotting against me!"

Elminster, however, couldn't help laughing as if he had eaten bee droppings, and he said in a kind of cheap manner: "Oh, old man, I don't have such bad thoughts, William, you think too much.

Hurry up!Bring your flaming army here!Don't worry, as long as you can help me buy enough time, I can remove the fixed base of this portal, and then we can take the door away directly. "

William turned his head and said to Selena and Kaoyi: "You guys leave here first, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you when the fight starts!"

Kaoyi is still relatively rational, ice and fire are incompatible, and there is no room for her to play in front of the army of flames.Kaoyi hugged William and took a bite, then said: "William, my lord, I hope that when you come back, you will give me a future that truly belongs to women." the transmission channel.

Selena said, "I'm not leaving! Let me stay, William."

William didn't have the time to lecture the girl. Since the child chose to face the danger directly, he didn't take it personally, so he said directly: "That's good! You can stay with the old mage and help him guard!"

Then William quickly opened several gates of flames, and flew into the world of flames. Soon his roar resounded in the sky of flames: "Servants of flames! Prepare to fight the abyss! Let the land of the abyss burn! Set up a purifying flame, and let the demons tremble in humiliation in front of us!"

Then, accompanied by the boundless flames, groups of flaming griffin knights spewed out from the gate of flames, rendering the sky of the abyss like burning clouds.

Immediately after that was the galloping stream of blazing red iron, and the army of heavily armored knights composed of flame horse knights rushed out of the gate of flames.

It has to be said that on the battlefield where the large corps are facing each other, the army of demons is really pulling their hips. They basically have no effective organization, and they all rely on recklessness to fight.

For example, in the never-ending bloody battles on the Wanyuan Plain, the demons always relied on ten times and a hundred times the superiority of troops to fight back and forth with the absolute order of the demon army in a chaotic manner.

At this moment, the line of demon soldiers in front of Stoddt's Gate are basically exhausted soldiers who arrived here after a long journey for a day and a night.

William's army of flames, on the other hand, seemed to be waiting for work. He had expected that the army of flames might be used in this adventure, so he kept letting them stand ready for battle.

After all, the Raging Flame Army is an elite army specially formed by William. Although the army has only been formed for a short time, it is almost enough to disdain most demons in terms of the type of arms-organization, training level, and weapons and equipment.

As soon as the hatchback confronted each other, the gap between them immediately became apparent.

Under the impact of the formed flame heavy cavalry, the demons who had traveled a long distance were almost powerless to fight back.And the flame griffin knights in the sky are also divided into two groups, one group is dedicated to cleaning up the demons flying in the air, while the other group cooperates with the flame heavy cavalry to cut and clean up the scattered demon lines.

The third wave of soldiers coming out of the Gate of Flame is the heavy armored dragon wing battle group. These heavy armored battle groups composed of fire dragons that are not inferior to giants not only have a defense like a copper wall and an iron wall, but also their machine. The power is also very good, and it can even carry out short-distance gliding under the condition of carrying heavy armor.

The Heavy Armored Dragon Wings first built a crude line of defense around Stoddt's Gate, opening up a buffer zone for the subsequent Flames, and preventing some of the demons from sneaking in for sneak attacks.

Normally, this is the standard procedure for dealing with the demon army. Demons always like to send a large group of messy soldiers into the depths of the enemy's army formation, and then turn the laning war into a pot of "you have me , I have you" sandwiched raw rice.

However, the transmission ability of the demons is now limited, but the defense of the heavy armored dragon wing group has basically not withstood any major tests.

When the fourth battle group, the Flame Giant Commando, set foot on the frozen soil of the abyss, the Heavy Armored Dragon Wings began to push outwards, completely sweeping away the demon miscellaneous soldiers that the flame heavy cavalrymen had missed.

The old mage no longer had the heart to disassemble the base of the portal. He looked at the gate of flames with ups and downs, seeing it like a never-ending fountain, spewing out the army belonging to William in a steady stream, and his expression made him feel solemn. People have chills.

The old mage has lived for more than 1000 years, and I don’t know how many powerful legions he has seen. Not to mention the various war groups of human civilizations, even the super-standard mythical armies such as the angel legion in heaven and the devil legion in hell, Elminster Nor is it unfamiliar.

Although the old mage didn't know how to build a powerful legion, he could definitely tell whether a legion was really powerful or not.

Is this the flaming army of the little bastard William?It's only been a few days, and it turned out like this!

Elminster had seen William's Flame Army in the Valley of Shadows not long ago. At that time, this army was not very good. It had a larger number of people and stronger individual combat power. invincible.

But in the blink of an eye, it doesn't make sense to suddenly become tyrannical. Slaughtering demons is just like playing.

When William led a group of flame constructs out of the gate of flames, he turned his head and found that the old mage was not doing anything serious, but was standing there trembling like chicken feet in the wind.

He stepped forward and said, "Old man! What are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up and work!"

The old mage gave William two eyes, but did not speak.

Selena next to him said, "William, this old man is frightened by the strength of this army when he sees your army beating the demons to pieces."

The old mage took a few deep breaths, then looked at William solemnly, and said, "William, please tell me the truth. Do you want to unify the Sword Coast region or even the whole world?"

However, William instantly understood the worry in the old mage's heart. He laughed twice and said, "Old man! You worry too much! Don't worry! I don't have the ambition to unify the entire human world. But if If possible, I think the valleys should be unified to form a complete country."

The old mage's eyes lit up, and he said solemnly: "Remember what you said! William, as long as you keep your word, the Valley will definitely come true as you wish."

Then the old mage walked to the buttress of the portal, seemingly continuing to get busy.

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

According to the judging standards of his previous life, William cannot be regarded as a qualified commander.

Whether it is in terms of army formation or command operations, he is far from qualified.It can even be said that it is not bad for William to be able to understand the command of a battle of hundreds of people.

However, when William, who was extremely reluctant to be a commander at the company commander level, became the leader of a flaming army that made the old mage extremely worried, he showed a commanding ability that amazed the natives here .

It is true that the military-related knowledge that William inherited from his previous life has been personally experienced, and some have been heard from various channels (such as film and television works, military history biographies, etc.), especially the civilization William was born in. I really understood all the ways and means of war, and the play came out.

This makes William full of dry goods in military theory. It can be said that he is a super weakened version of Zhao Kuo.But he was much luckier than Zhao Kuo.

Zhao Kuo met Bai Qi, the god of war, and achieved the eternal bad reviews of "talking about soldiers on paper".

However, William, the "little Zhao Kuo", encountered an army of demons that would only disrupt the battle.As far as the way of team battles of demons is concerned, it is basically a routine.

The cannon fodder meat shields swarm up first to attract the enemy's attention and consume the enemy's physical strength and firepower (such as lethal spells, arrows, etc.). The heart is open and unparalleled, and the cannon fodder behind them launches a tidal charge. After such a chaotic battle, the demons often rely on their absolute superiority in numbers to defeat the mighty celestial army or hell devil army.

And the demon army that William needs to face is not commanded by a demon lord - Kostchurch, the only demon lord in the frozen ruins, is in a state of madness and chaos, and his talent for chaotic combat is still limited - he can't teleport, so William can rest assured Boldly experiment with his correct or wrong military theories and ideas, and then slowly learn command experience.

As the saying goes, "if you are poor, you will intersperse with tactics, and if you are rich, you will blow up for me." William's army building ideas adhere to the consistent fine traditions of the revolutionary ancestors, and pointed out the direction of development for his own Flame Legion.

If you want to say which plane in this world is the easiest to engage in arms development, then the flame world will definitely do its part.no way!There are many mines that are easy to dig, and the iron and steel industry does not need to save production at all. If there is a shortage, just go to the magma lake to scoop it up. The molten iron, steel, and copper are full of pits and valleys. You can choose whatever you want.

Playing machinery, flame dwarves and flame gnomes are definitely top experts, not to mention casting general cold weapons or armors, great technicians among flame dwarves can even use fire copper steel to create a replica of their own construction, and then endow Its wisdom allows the clone to live like a real flame dwarf.

And the biggest hobby of the flame gnomes is to build super huge golems (mechas), and they can drive the golems to do everything they want like wearing armor.

When William had these two kinds of skilled craftsmen under his command, he immediately began to develop his own construction power as the future fist unit of his own army.

William understood the truth very well that equipment is a tool, and talent is the key to determining the outcome of a war.Therefore, his construction power did not set up an independent high-level intelligence like the usual construction body, but only preset a most basic auxiliary intelligence, similar to the autopilot control computer of cars and airplanes in previous lives.

Strictly speaking, William’s Construct Legion should be called the Mech Legion, and he called them Gundam in a wicked way. These war machines need to be commanded and driven by intelligent people with brains (referring to humanoid creatures with real intelligence) in order to participate in the real war. battle.

Some people think that William's doing this is a bit redundant, but William doesn't think so.

As we all know, under normal circumstances, the most valuable soldiers in an army are veterans with rich combat experience. They are the backbone of the army and the guarantee of the combat effectiveness of the entire army.

But in Faerun, in this magical and mysterious world, veterans can only be regarded as valuable cannon fodder, and the real stars on the battlefield are those talented superpowers. Even without military experience, it is difficult to support the real girder.

However, when William equipped his veterans with mechas and let them drive Gundams into the battlefield, these veterans directly became the masters of the battlefield.

Each Gundam can basically be regarded as a quasi-legendary fighter if it exerts its combat power normally. If it is against a demon, it can barely be regarded as a weakened version of Balor.The reason why these huge Gundams are not as good as the Balrog is mainly due to two limitations. One is the hardware configuration problem, the output power of the power system is insufficient, and the firepower configuration is not satisfactory.

Another problem is the pilot. The pilots chosen by William are basically experienced fighters and technicians recruited from among the flame gnomes and salamanders. Generally speaking, they did not meet William's expectations. The best Gundam pilots are his human subordinates in Faerun, and the dreaded Upright Ape is the best combat mechanic in the world.

In addition to the mech squadron as a fist force, William also established a tactical fire support squadron.As the so-called truth is only within the range of the cannon, William has never forgotten the reputation of the God of War, and with a military force composed of such talents as the flame dwarves and flame gnomes, William's cannon casting plan is completely lacking in the processing field. A little problem, the only problem is the design of the artillery.

Fortunately, when William was a mercenary in his previous life, he was exposed to some more traditional artillery, and even tried it himself.Of course, it does not mean that William participated in artillery battles in his previous life, but that he had several clients who were in the circle of weapon collectors. Many of them collected some classic small artillery from World War I and World War II as bodyguards who took money. When the owner needs to start a demonstration, he has to work hard to help.

The old-fashioned artillery that William is more familiar with includes the old-fashioned Miss Seventy-Five and some mortars. Referring to the shape and structure of these artillery, he designed an unusable four-faced one very amateurishly, and was despised by a group of technical masters. However, it also opened the minds of the technicians under him.
