The Swordsman of Faerûn

Glory to her, something the aspiring Xeria desperately desired.
She is also one of the participants and promoters of this event of conquest!But you can only appear as the defeated, you two dryads with no strength at all (similar to the derogatory name of Humeizi), why stand there and be sure to be superior to my old lady, just because you got into the right bed? !
Of course, Zeriya did not show the injustice in her heart.
On the contrary, she smiled brighter than anyone else, and she spoke more decently than anyone else. She could get the best statuette, the one that weighs a ton.
In contrast, Phinea and Kaoyi performed much worse.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Phineya was so dizzy that she could hardly walk, as if she had stepped on cotton under her feet, making people think that she walked like this in the first place. .
Kaoyi did not lose her composure. After all, she is also an Ice General who has commanded thousands of legions. However, Kaoyi has no experience in this kind of occasion, so she can only stick to Phinea like a vase. Be a spectator by your side.
Fortunately, Anadol acted as a firefighter, and with his reminder, the so-called handover ceremony of the city's ruling power was finally barely completed.
Then there was the establishment of a new city management agency, but this time William appeared in person.In the castle that originally belonged to the lord of Yuanshan City, almost all the leaders of Yuanshan City who were qualified to participate in the management came to the scene. It was here that William announced the CEO of Yuanshan City at the beginning.
Zeria Talladim!
This was a candidate that was beyond everyone's expectations, including Zeria herself who was a little confused, and then it was a huge surprise.
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
Almost all the people in Yuanshan City agreed that the person who will hold the direct management power of Yuanshan City in the future will be Anador Three Wolf Talladim, and even Anador himself thinks so, although he himself does not want to Accept this kind of work that is bound to be exhausting.
There are quite a few members of Crimson Feather who can hardly accept being overwhelmed by a woman like a bitch. Although Xeria is Anadol's niece, she used to be Miles' secret lover, so she cannot get Yuanshan City. The respect of high-ranking figures.
What's more, Zeriya is still a low-class person who likes to get close to mud legs, how can she let her run and shit on top of her head? !
Many impulsive or arrogant local elites even jumped out to express their opposition, claiming that they absolutely could not accept this outrageous appointment.
William couldn't help laughing at this, he said: "A group of fools without brains! Do you really think I'm asking for your opinions?! If you don't want to accept it, then go die!"
No one expected that William would kill on the spot. Anyone who jumped out to oppose, no matter if they sincerely opposed or pretended to agree, would all be killed with one knife, but turned a good lord's mansion into a slaughterhouse full of blood. .
It's not that William is bloodthirsty, but that a large part of the people in Yuanshan City, especially the former members of the Scarlet Feather, are mostly not very kind. Among them, the members of the original Great Council are the most contemptible, really blasphemy "Crimson" is a name with extraordinary meaning.
It's just because Crimson Feather, a group that started out as a business group, has divided the people of Yuanshan City into two nearly separated classes.One group is dominated by wealthy businessmen, who control social resources, seize social wealth and power, and suppress and repel ordinary people at the bottom.
However, because Yuanshan City started as a seafaring merchant, it can supplement a lot of wealth and resources from the outside world. As a result, the two opposing classes are almost equal in number, but the comparison of strength is very different. The possibility of resistance was suppressed to the extreme.
No matter what method William used to conquer Yuanshan City, the vested interests in Yuanshan City must not give up their interests. Originally, most of these vested interests should be consumed as much as possible in the process of being conquered. On the battlefield, it was only William who broke through the city with one blow and used tyrannical means to force people to obey, but let the house be wiped out with cockroaches and mosquitoes.
If William just let it go and ignored it, even if the chief executive officer he appointed had the means, it would probably be difficult to truly subdue Yuanshan City.
Although William's reputation for getting rid of evil this time is a bit careless, in the long run, it is a kind of love for all the good people in Yuanshan City.
With William helping to eliminate disobedients, the rest of the thorns also died down. As the chief executive officer, Zeria's work began to be easier to carry out. Whether it was forming a management organization or issuing government orders, it was surprisingly smooth.
William stayed in Yuanshan City for a few more days, and after Zeria recruited elites from among the civilians to expand her authority, she also recruited a group of extraordinary professionals who were quite capable as municipal guards, and confirmed that the order of Yuanshan City was almost gone. On track.
In this way, William left Yuanshan City with his family and guards, and embarked on the journey to Yulas.
There is a relatively regular road connecting Yuanshan City and Yulas. Dozens of William and his party replenished enough supplies and riding horses for transportation in Yuanshan City. Therefore, although the journey was a bit leisurely, the speed was not slow It's slow.
They just didn't want to receive an urgent report from Far Mountain City when they camped and rested on the first day, saying that the Chief Executive, Zeria, had been attacked shortly after William left.
A group of members of the Great Council of Far Mountain City, led by the leader Miles who had disappeared earlier, raided the Lord's Mansion and took Ms. Xeria away before the arrival of the municipal guard.
Although this news did not shock William, he couldn't help but sigh for the female mage of the Talladim family.In fact, before leaving Yuanshan City, William had specifically reminded Zeria several times that she must be careful of the counterattacks of those local rebel forces. It is a pity that although the newly appointed female consul agreed very happily, she did not take it seriously. .
William saw this, but he didn't force it any more, he just sighed secretly: It's hard to persuade the damn ghost!If you give a reminder but don't cherish your grasp, you deserve to be bad luck.
In fact, William also knew that there were certain reasons for Xeria's arrogance on security issues.Most of the real outlaws in Yuanshan City were ordinary people from the bottom class or even lower, but Zeriya had a very high reputation among the common people.
As for the Crimson Feathers at the top, apart from oppressing goodness, they are basically cowardly when it comes to the real fight to the death. How could they have the courage to jump out and rebel after being frightened by William.
It's a pity that Zeriya saw through the class weakness of the vested interests in Yuanshan City, but ignored the revenge of some avengers.
It was a group of mercenaries from other places who really jumped out to attack Zeriya. Since they were not affected by local class divisions and antagonisms, they did not have any scruples or psychological burdens about raiding and robbing Zeriya.
Until she was knocked unconscious by the attackers, Zeria was in a state of remorse and anger. She admitted that she was careless, but she didn't expect those bastards to actually dare to make trouble.
When Zeria woke up from a coma and saw a figure gnashing her teeth, she finally understood who was behind the attack on her.
Miles, the former quasi-lord of Yuanshan City who disappeared on the day the city's south wall was destroyed, was not reconciled to the loss of his authority and status, and hated Zeria's betrayal. launched the attack.
Only the former master of the city behind the scenes has the ability to find such a group of experts to launch an attack in a short period of time.
Seeing Miles' distorted old face, Zeria felt a chill in her heart, and she even fell down completely this time.
Zeria knew Miles' cruelty, tyranny and ruthlessness, and she might suffer from his cruel torture later.
Thinking of this, Zeriya couldn't help struggling desperately.
At this time, she was being bound by a long linen belt, which was not a very strong rope, and even some powerful fighters could break it with only their physical strength.
It's a pity that Zeriya is just a mage of some level. She has lost her magic power, and she is not much better than a strong peasant woman.
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
As a top mage (mage level 18+) with enviable authority and power, Miles' psychology is somewhat abnormally distorted.
He is a pervert!A villain addicted to torture.
Zeria, who was being beaten, knew very well that any screams from her would only stimulate Miles to become more cruel and distorted. He was the kind of pervert who obtained satisfaction from the process of sadism and masochism.
Before Zeria became Miles' secret lover, countless innocent girls died because of Miles' evil hobby.
Zeria was able to survive under Miles' claws until today, not because Miles was kind to her, but because Zeria, as a spellcaster, has a good specialization in healing and protection spells, and can bless herself with some life-saving skills. spell.
Another advantage of Zeria is that her voice is quite special, which is very suitable for Miles. The voice she makes when she is in pain can always quiet the manic Miles in a short time .
But now Miles is more angry than ever, because of Zeria's betrayal, and because no matter how he beat and abused Zeria, this woman kept silent and responded to him with mocking eyes.
Miles' madness and evil made even those evil mercenaries who were paid to do things a little uncomfortable. Except for the two mercenaries who were also relatively cruel, the others couldn't help but left the scene and ran a little farther away place to avoid this evil scene.
Miles grabbed Xeria's hair, forcing her to raise her pale face. The twisted evil mage stared at the blood-red eyes and screamed: "..."
Xeriya felt that she had broken several ribs, and she no longer expected someone to save her. The female mage just wanted to end this deepest nightmare.
She sneered with a cold breath, exhausted all her strength, and said with difficulty: "It's so pitiful!
Miles, you're like a poor homeless dog!Look at you, you used to control the entire Yuanshan City, thousands of people prostrated under your power and strength, how beautiful and high you were at that time.
Look at you now, once you lose your authority and status, you will even act worse than a little gangster on the street.
Miles, you're not even a man right now!
bring it on!kill me!Just use my poor woman's life to satisfy your pitiful and humble twisted dignity! "
"Damn bitch! You will regret your presumptuous words! I will take everything from you! First is your appearance! Your dignity! Your status! Last is your life!" Rors roared furiously, grabbed the knife in his hand and slashed Zeria's face a few times.
Accompanied by Xeriya's mournful wailing, even the faces of the two cruel mercenaries who were watching showed a little unbearable expression.
Zeria's screams attracted everyone's attention, so that when one of the mercenaries who escaped was killed, no one noticed.
A figure covered in black robes quietly walked around the mercenary, his steps were as light as a mongoose, and his figure was as nimble as a snake, quietly approaching a mercenary.
The mercenaries Miles recruited were all of extraordinary skill, otherwise it would not have been possible to forcefully break into the lord's castle and capture Xeria, but when the mercenary found something was wrong, a thin sword had been removed It pierced through his back and directly pierced his heart.
The severe pain made the mercenary who was attacked couldn't help screaming, but he didn't expect that a gloved palm had already covered his mouth, turning the mercenary's scream into a muffled grunt.
A ghostly assassin took two lives almost without the enemy noticing, and it was thanks to Zeria's screams that distracted the attention of several mercenaries, but it is undeniable that Yes, the strength of the assassin is indeed not bad.
The third mercenary didn't notice the misfortune of the two companions, because she was lying on the top floor of the building and looking around, checking the movements of the guards in Yuanshan City.
The arrest of Zeria almost drove the city guards crazy. They were frantically checking and inquiring on the streets, looking for the whereabouts of the attackers.
In fact, because Yuanshan City had just been conquered by William, the municipal structure had not yet been perfected, and many people had just been promoted. The key point was that Zeria, who was at the helm, had disappeared, and the administrative operation of the entire city had completely fallen into chaos.
That is to say, a group of guards that Zeriya recruited and promoted from the civilians were willing to work hard to rescue her, and the rest were almost at a loss, or were too passive and slow to work.
Among the most conspicuous buildings in Yuanshan City, the Bell Tower is definitely among the best, but no one would doubt that there is actually a group of people hidden inside.After all, this place is too conspicuous, and there is only one exit for the whole building, which is very difficult to escape. Only a fool would use this place as a hiding place.
But Miles took the bell tower as a hiding place, because he didn't think about escaping, but instead wanted to regain his own city.
However, when one of the mercenaries in charge of observing the situation was watching those guards of the distant mountain city on the ground scurrying around like headless flies, she suddenly felt that someone kicked her back hard, and then she couldn't help it. He jumped out of the gap on the top of the bell tower, screaming and fell from a height of several feet.
Then I saw an assassin in a black cloak appearing at the top of the bell tower, grabbing the hammer of the alarm bell and shaking it vigorously, but a bell rang suddenly, the melodious bell was clear and loud, and it caught all the eyes in the city. They were all attracted.
Miles, who was abusing Zeria in the room on the first floor of the clock tower, heard the bell ringing, but he was shocked and said: "The agreed time has not yet come, why is the bell ringing? Who is messing around?" Ring the bell?!"
The two mercenaries guarding the side heard the screams of their companions falling before the bell rang. They hurriedly got up and rushed out, but when they came out, they found that several companions had already fallen in a pool of blood.
The two were shocked and angry, they looked at each other, and rushed to the bottom entrance of the bell tower together.The two knew very well that as the bell rang, the guards of Yuanshan City must have discovered their whereabouts. If they didn't rush out from the entrance of the bell tower, they might be completely blocked here.
Originally, the female chief executive officer was a good hostage, but she was spoiled by that stupid employer Miles. They didn't think that a dying person like that could help them get out.
When the two mercenaries rushed down, they didn't notice that a black figure flashed from behind them into the room where they were originally staying.
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
Miles was quite vigilant, especially the ringing of the bell completely freed him from the extremely distorted emotions, and he regained his sanity that belonged to a hero.
Therefore, when the black shadow entered the room, Miles actually noticed it immediately. He looked at Xeria, who was almost dying, and then turned around and said, "Carmon! Who let you in!"
The black figure paused, and took off the cloak that covered his face, revealing a head with a crooked neck, but it was the bell ringer of the bell tower, Carmon.
Carmon tilted his neck and lowered his head, like a stubborn child who made a mistake, he argued in a low voice, "As you said, leave Ms. Xeria to me!"
Miles sneered: "Bastard! Your delusions are more ridiculous than the goblins in the pigsty! Don't forget, without me, you are still just a mouse in the stinky gutter!"
……
(For some reason, this part of the storyline can only be hidden, otherwise it will be difficult to pass the review.)
Camon, as someone who grew up from the bottom of Far Mountain City, was supposed to be a twisted killer and self-serving villain, just like Cyric, who grew up of a similar origin in the city next door.
Cyric's luck lies in the fact that he met the four people who saved the goddess of magic, and then gained an unimaginable encounter.However, it was precisely because one of the scum girls named Midnight was too sentimental that completely defeated Cyric's only trace of humanity.
Kamon's luck lies in the fact that at the darkest time of his life, the appearance of Zeria made him feel the most precious kindness and the most unforgettable feelings in the world.
Miles selected a group of orphans from the streets of Far Mountain City to train them as assassins in the shadows, and Carmon was one of them, but Carmon was not the best assassin among all the assassins.
Kamon's first assassination mission was Zeriya who had just arrived in Yuanshan City.At that time, Carmon's neck was still normal, and he failed as expected due to lack of assassination experience and fledgling love.
However, Zeria did not kill Kamon, nor did he hand him over to the sheriff of Yuanshan City, but let him go. After all, Kamon was only in his teens at that time (even he didn't know own exact age), looks like a child.
Carmon believed that the assassination itself was a mistake, and he was very happy that he did not really complete the task.
He then failed the mission and became Miles' chicken to make an example of, as the malevolent mage tormented him with a wicked spell that caused Camon's neck to be permanently crooked.
Even in order to kill people, Miles deliberately threw the tortured Kamon into the stinky ditch that Xeria passed by every day, and then Miles created a chance encounter, which Xeria discovered by coincidence Camon, who was dying.
Miles' original intention was to let Carmon feel what it means to be cold, and what it means to be unworthy of the world before he dies.
After all, normally speaking, a beautiful female mage would not be interested in a dying beggar in a stinking ditch, and she should stay away from him in disgust.
However, the development of the matter was beyond Myers' expectation. Zeria actually cast a healing spell on the dying Kamon. Although it might be an impromptu experiment by the female mage on the healing spell she had just learned, it did save Kamon .
The reborn Kamon became Zeria's most loyal guardian in the following days, and there was also a bell ringer with a crooked neck in the bell tower of Yuanshan City.
Inspired by faith, Carmon almost killed all the fellow assassins Miles sent to assassinate the girl, including those who performed better than him in training.
It wasn't until Miles turned Zeria into his secret lover that Kamon became the sharpest dagger of the master behind the scenes of Yuanshan City again.
In the bell tower, Carmon finally killed Miles, because of the cruel torture that destroyed his appearance and even lost one eye, but made Carmon feel inexplicably excited. He felt inferior and thought that he finally It's okay to be with the former goddess. (The detailed description in the bell tower is omitted here, it is easy to be confused)
When William rushed back to Far Mountain City at the fastest speed, the conflict in the clock tower was over. Miles, the former lord of Far Mountain City, was killed and all his mercenaries were wiped out. , only the tortured and dying chief executive Xeria barely survived.
Everyone thought that even if Zeria survived the severe injury, she would no longer be qualified to serve as the chief executive officer of Yuanshan City, and the next Yuanshan City would definitely reorganize its management.
But William used the power of miracles to tell everyone that they were delusional.
The vitality transformed by the curse fire ability made Zeria appear in front of people in a nearly intact posture the next day, even her damaged eyes were revived.
Of course, wounds on the body heal easily, but wounds on the mind are difficult to heal.
Zeria Talladim, who reappeared in front of people, became a person who was overly sensitive to her own safety. She recruited a group of good people from the Elven Tree as her personal guards, and appointed three times more people than before. The sheriff came to manage the streets of Far Mountain City.
In addition, Zeriya has also become more aggressive in government affairs. For example, the work of repairing the southern city wall of Yuanshan City has recruited thousands of young and strong laborers. While cutting trees to build temporary fences, they are trying to dig mountains to collect stone materials for building the city wall. .
The work of repairing the city wall is very important. For any city in Faerun, the city wall is an extremely important defensive facility, because all kinds of evil spirits in the wild are definitely one of the most direct and deadly threats to human beings living in groups. .
Especially those hordes of goblins, orcs, ogres, trolls, etc., are simply a big hazard to human gathering areas.
Of course, these have nothing to do with William for the time being. After he treated Zeria, he returned to the team heading to Yulas.
The road between Yuanshan City and Yulas is also known as the Bow Axis Avenue, and it is a semi-natural road with relatively good traffic conditions.This is due to the fact that the terrain between Yulas and Yuanshan City is flat, and there are few gullies or jungles blocking the road, and it was maintained by the former ruler of Yuanshan City, so the road conditions are relatively good.
However, in recent years, Yulas has been abandoned, and the caravans of Yuanshan City seldom take this trade route. Valley and plowing the valley.
