The Swordsman of Faerûn

"Is it really dangerous ahead? Oh, wouldn't it be more dangerous for me to walk alone! Then I need to be with Mr. William even more." Selyse had a soft look of "a little girl is afraid", if she didn't know Some people really thought she was some lonely little woman.

Since his rebirth, among all the women William has met, there is really no one who is thicker-skinned and better at acting than the "goblin" in front of him. You don't need to mess around here, no matter whether you have malicious intentions or not, our family doesn't welcome you anyway. If you insist on not leaving, then don't blame me for being rude. "

After William had made his words clear, he was no longer polite, and a murderous intent that was almost condensed into reality burst forth.In an instant, Selyse, who was frustrated, had an illusion that what stood in front of her was not a human being, but an ancient wild beast.Celis felt like she was dying like a candle in the wind, but after all she had undergone special training, she was a person with a strong mind, and before she almost lost consciousness, she finally shouted: "I know it is Who attacked you!"

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

"I know who attacked you!" For a split second, Selyse even thought that one of her feet had stepped into the underworld. She almost used all her strength to shout this sentence, which was a bit abrupt. Originally, she wanted to Wanting to teach the opponent a lesson, William withdrew his killing intent.As soon as the killing intent was gone, Celiston felt her heart relax, and she sat down on the ground as if her whole body was exhausted.

Celis knelt on the ground with a pale face and gasped for breath, her beautiful eyes were full of fear and horror.When watching William deal with Sharon, Selyse just felt that William was very powerful, but she didn't have much emotion; now, when confronted directly, Selyse realizes that it is no longer a word that can be described as "powerful". No, she never expected William's strength to be so terrifying.

William came closer and asked, "Do you know who attacked us?"

Celis nodded slightly in a daze, and said, "The things in the hotel should be planned by the shadow thieves lurking in Xikangbu."

"Shadow Thief? What's that?" I have to say that William's family are indeed "hillies" who have never seen the world.

Celis was indeed surprised by the ignorance of a few people. She said in amazement: "You don't even know about Shadow Thieves? That is the most famous thieves' guild in Faerun." They told William about their news and intelligence.

Since the beginning of civilization, killers and prostitutes can be said to be the two oldest underground professions of human beings (ironically, the most proficient use of prostitutes in Faerun is the Harper Alliance belonging to the good camp), among which Killers are also associated with occupations such as thieves and robbers, and are collectively referred to as thieves.The shadow king, Mask, became a god as a mortal thief, and his priesthood represented all the characteristics of a thief—shadow, conspiracy, stealing, plundering, and assassination (the priesthood of "assassination" was established a long time ago Part of it was taken away by Jergal, the god of death, and finally turned into a "murder" priesthood and given to Bane, one of the three gods of death).

Unlike other gods who like to build temples and churches, Mask, the god of thieves, is more keen on building thieves’ guilds that walk in the dark world. So far, I don’t know how many large and small thieves’ guilds were specially created by his incarnation or servants. of.

A little over a century ago, five ambitious criminals founded the Shadow Thieves' Guild, initially based in Waterdeep, and functioning like any other thieves' guild, with the important difference that the guild's power rested on one of the founders.Few people know that the founder is actually a voter of Mask, the loyal servant of the god of thieves. Merchants, bribing the city's overseers and assassinating their rivals, committed ancient crimes in insidious and malicious ways.

Of course, the wanton actions of the shadow thieves angered the leaders of the city, and the city lords of Waterdeep City declared the Shadow Thieves Guild an illegal group. Ting dealt a devastating blow to the shadow thieves, driving them out of Glory City (of course, the goddesses of magic Mystra and Kelben also played a role in this matter).

After the Shadow Thieves Guild was destroyed in Waterdeep City, the only surviving founder—Deep Shadow and other remaining members fled to Amn, and reorganized the organization in its capital, Askatra.Deep Shadow slowly rebuilt the organization, designated many different levels within the organization, and gradually developed the Shadow Thieves Guild into a well-organized group.In the years that followed, the Shadow Thieves gained near-total control of Amn's underworld and became the most formidable contenders in the union struggle for control of illegal operations throughout the Sword Coast.

Since being kicked out of Waterdeep, the surviving founder, Deep Shadow, has vowed never to let the union suffer similar shameful setbacks. He has been longing for revenge on Waterdeep and its lords.Obviously, from Deep Shadow's point of view, the time is now ripe, and it is no longer a secret in the Northland that he brought the shadow thief elites northward.

Of course, the information Selyse told William was not so accurate and detailed, but it was roughly the same except for some anecdotes.To put it bluntly in William's point of view, the Shadow Thieves Guild is a vicious gang organization that combines thieves, killers, robbers, bullies, hooligans, thugs, dealers, liars, arsonists, and smugglers. After passing through the mountain gate, a small group of remnants fled to other places and redeveloped, and now they are ready to come back to engage in terrorism to find a place.However, this seems to have nothing to do with the William family.

William frowned and said, "What does the Shadow Thief have to do with us when he comes back for revenge?"

Celis smiled bleakly and said: "Who told you to pretend to be a 'big money' when you have nothing to do! You must know that the shadow thieves are most concerned about two goals-increasing their own wealth and expanding their power. They attach great importance to Wealth and power are higher than anything else, and you have displayed your wealth so high-profile these days, is it any wonder they don't bother you?"

William didn't show approval or denial, but asked instead: "How can you be sure that they must be the ones who did it?"

At this time, Selyse had recovered her physical strength and will, she stood up staggeringly, sorted out her somewhat messy hair and clothing, and then said with a calm smile: "Of course I have my source of information. Well, do you know which is the best news-gathering organization on this continent?"

Before William could answer, Selyse said to herself proudly: "It's the harpist! As long as there is a harpist, even the most inconspicuous news will never escape our surveillance. The local harpist in Sicombe has already discovered it." The members of the shadow thieves who sneaked into this city not long ago, although they did not do it themselves, but those who did it directly are basically local thieves who were bought by them."

After a moment, William Han asked again: "What about Daniel and Sandro? They came with you. Daniel even planned to use magic to assassinate me, and Sandro is also missing now..."

Selyse's complexion changed, and she said: "Sandro is the Enasa Guild (After the Shadow Thieves Guild was expelled from Waterdeep City, the Enasa Guild dug up replaced the shadow thieves in this city, but this The organization is also facing the fate of its "predecessors"), but he has been killed by me. As for Daniel, he should have no problem, I don't understand why you want to kill the poor guy."

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

"As for Daniel, he shouldn't have any problems. I don't understand why you want to kill that poor guy."

"Really?" William sneered and did not explain, but deliberately joked to Misha: "Misha, didn't you just argue about taking the carriage? Now that the carriage is here, do you still want to sit?"

Misha quickly shook her head and said, "No! My brother promised to carry me behind my back, don't play tricks, I won't ride in a carriage!" On the other side, Miluna tightly grasped the corner of William's clothes, As if he was afraid that William would run away.

William patted the foreheads of the two little girls lightly, deliberately put on a embarrassed look and said with a wry smile: "Oh! I can't carry two people at once, how about we ride horses? You two ride black horses. Zou, I will lead the horse ahead."

The two little guys looked at each other for a while, and then nodded at the same time with some reluctance.William shook his head inwardly. He was really a big girl with two people. He took a deep breath, raised his head to the sky and let out a long howl, which sounded like a dragon chant in the surrounding fields. Not long after, Selyse saw a black spot floating in the middle of the distance. It was only when the black spot got closer that it was discovered that it was a strong pegasus covered in black as ink, but it was actually William's mount, Mo Xiao.

"咴咴莱卫——" Mo Cai hissed and circled a few times in the air above everyone's heads, then glided down with his wings outstretched lightly, buffered and ran for a short distance on the ground before coming to a steady stop.The wisdom of Pegasus is no less than that of humans, and Mo Kai is like a naughty boy who just ran home from playing outside. He trotted lightly to William, hissed at him a few times, and rubbed William with his big head. arm.

William carried the two little girls onto the horse's back one by one, and then patted Mo Xiao on the neck, and Mo Xiao walked forward with strides.William greeted Yasuna and Phinya and followed, ignoring Celis who was standing at a loss.Perhaps because of the warning just now, Selyse didn't dare to continue to pester William. Instead, she crashed in a carriage not far behind them and followed them silently. .

In this way, I walked for two days along the commercial road along the Delimbier River. Along the way, the William family stopped and stopped, and the William family rested in the carriage, except for a few groups of goblins and ogres who did not have eyes. With one exception, most of them have basically become the targets of Mi Sha'er's practice. If estimated at this speed, I believe that it won't be long before the little girl can become a "glorious" goblin hunter.) It's also very quiet.

The outline of the highest forest can already be seen from a distance in the north. Based on William's experience, the height of the canopy of the dense forest may not be less than [-] meters. It is really an amazing "primitive" forest.

Depressed and cold!Even the scorching sun in the sky that can almost bake pearl eggs seems to have become darker, which is the feeling William and others felt when they passed a low-lying wetland.Something is approaching!With a loud shout, William pulled out the autumn water knife at his waist in an instant, dug suddenly on the wet mud, and picked out a pink meat worm with an arm several feet long and shaped like an earthworm.

Before the worm could react, William cut the worm's body in two with a horizontal cut.William's blow was just right, but most cavity-shaped worms have extremely tenacious vitality, such as earthworms, even if they are cut into several pieces, they can even survive (even if they can't survive, they can struggle for a long time), but If the cavity of the earthworm is cut open, it will undoubtedly die.The viscera and body fluids in the fleshy worm's body cavity were spilled all over the floor, only the two parts of the almost symmetrical cavity skin fell to the ground and twitched weakly.

Just as William chopped a meat worm with this knife, the whole ground in front of him suddenly began to churn, and at the same time, there were mud puddles on both sides. The lumps of mud kept stirring and tumbling, like countless giant pythons twisting and rolling in it. .At this time, Mo Zou, who was carrying the two little girls for a walk, was startled, flapped his wings hurriedly and stood up, and the two little guys who were looking left and right suddenly screamed and fell off the horse's back.After chopping the fleshy worm, William didn't stop, kicked his feet and sprinted back, wrapping his arms around the screaming Misha and Miluna.

William held a little girl in each arm, stared at the churning ground with fierce tiger eyes, and shouted loudly at the same time: "Everyone back up! Yasuna, the frozen ground under your feet! Mo Zai, go to the sky, look! See what's going on around here. Phinea—"

When encountering such a sudden change, compared to William's calmness and composure, Yasuna and Finiya's reactions were quite different. Just the time they were in a daze was enough for William to hack them to death several times. up.When they hurriedly grabbed their weapons in their hands, they still didn't know what to do next, because there were no visible enemies on the ground.

William's call was quick and timely, and Yasuna and Phineya, who were at a loss at first, immediately knew what they should do.Yasuna's deep gaze focused, and she let out a clear drink. The light blue mist that was almost visible to the naked eye diffused from around her body, and a thin layer of frost quickly condensed on the ground, and the ground under her feet also slowly released " Cracking, cracking" the sound of ice cubes congealing and squeezing.Feniya's reaction was quicker. She already had a tacit understanding with William, and just heard William calling her name, she already realized what she should do. Feniya strode forward and took the two little girls from William came over, and she held a battle ax and a dragon shield to protect the two terrified and inexplicable little guys and kept retreating.

William stood on the ground where there were no monsters churning, holding the knife and standing still to cut the back.He just took two steps back and stopped, his left foot suddenly stomped on the ground, like a thunderclap on the ground, the ground within a few feet around him sank several inches, and at the same time, there seemed to be an invisible shock wave spreading rapidly Driving, it seemed that the whole earth was trembling, and Yasuna and the others felt a little unstable.

When William stomped his foot, the already undulating ground seemed to be churning even more violently.An inexplicable screaming sound suddenly sounded, as if someone was whistling vigorously in the ear, making people dizzy and dizzy.However, William, whose senses were already extremely keen, found that his eardrums did not receive the fluctuations of the air shock. He already understood that this "sound" was actually not a real sound, but a spiritual illusion that directly acted on the soul. .

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

William is no stranger to this kind of attack method that acts on the soul, because he knows it himself, and the lethality is even more terrifying. It was the [Soul Storm] that he had comprehended by accident when he was fighting ghosts to protect Miluna. .

[Soul Storm] Although it is powerful, William dare not use it in battle, because this move is a large-scale and indiscriminate spiritual attack, and William cannot control it so that it will not hurt his own people.Except for a mysterious Meluna who was once immune to [Soul Storm], William was not sure whether other people around him were also immune. He had used animals to experiment several times alone in the deserted wilderness, but nothing Exceptions, as long as the creatures within the killing range of [Soul Storm] were devastated, including flowers and trees, they withered and withered in the next few days.

Similarly, William is also not sure whether the Horn of Cole can resist [Soul Storm]. He can't take Misha, the only one who can use the Horn of Cole, to do this dangerous experiment. If the Horn of Cole can be immune 【Soul Storm】Fortunately, if not, it would be a nightmare...

However, the effect of the psychic attack used by the ambush didn't seem to be very good. The two little girls didn't respond at all, but Yasuna and Finiya paused for a moment, and then returned to normal.

With the power of William's kick, the underground monster turned more violently. The ground around the place he stepped on suddenly cracked, and several fleshy worms with half of their cavity broke out, sticking out of the ground and waving and struggling. .As William had guessed, the vitality of the meat worms was very tenacious, and the wounds crushed by William's forceful blow to the ground were shrinking and healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It has only been a dozen or so breaths since William noticed the ambush. William kept pounding the ground while backing up, in order to slow down the attack speed of the underground monster.Behind him, Yasuna was constantly freezing the ground under her feet, Miluna was holding the same panic-stricken cat in her arms, and Misha'er had already taken out her usual fine gold rapier just in case. One, under the protection of Feniya, the two little guys trotted back and forth on the frosty road and retreated.

Celis, who had originally fallen behind William and the others, also noticed the change ahead, but the draft horse that pulled the cart collapsed to the ground in the psychic attack just now. No problem, the coachman ran away immediately after seeing the astonishing changes ahead, but Selyse took the opportunity to move closer to William and the others.

After William retreated to the frozen soil created by Yasuna, he found that the underground monsters were finally temporarily blocked, and the blocking effect of the solid ice on the underground monsters was indeed as he expected.William came to Yasuna's side in a few steps, and suddenly felt a bone-chilling chill, but he didn't care about it, but asked solemnly: "Yasuna, how long can your chill last?" ?”

"This damn magic turmoil (the magic network has experienced magic turmoil and chaos several times in the past years, but it is basically just a trick played by the goddess of magic), my cold can't last long, William, we have to Find a way to get out of here quickly, otherwise you will be in trouble..." Yasuna said a little uneasy.

In front of the frozen ground created by Yasuna, more and more flesh worms burst out of the ground, and countless disgusting bodies danced non-stop as if they wanted to grab something.Suddenly, some of the meat worms got tangled together and merged into a big meat ball. Then more than a dozen slender tentacles appeared on the surface of the meat ball, and four of the thicker tentacles each formed a crystal ball at the end. pupil.

Then came the second meat ball tentacle monster, the third, the fourth...the number of meat ball tentacle monsters is increasing. They use their slender tentacles as their supporting legs, stepping on the hard frozen soil to quickly move toward William and the others. surrounded them.If the frozen land of Yasuna is compared to a reef, the churning surrounding area is like a sea of ​​waves besieging the reef, with countless ball-shaped sea monsters and ants occupying every inch of the reef.

Looking at the group of spherical tentacle monsters swarming up, William felt a tingling feeling in his scalp. Even a tough guy with iron blood to the extreme may be able to calmly face the charge of thousands of troops of the same kind, but when he faces a group of monsters It will definitely gasp when it devours a human mouse.

The movement speed of these monsters is not very fast, at most it is similar to the trot of ordinary people. William stepped forward and pulled out the monster running in the front.Although it is not easy to estimate the strength of William's kick, just looking at the kicked monster is like a big watermelon that has been kicked, and the whole ball-shaped body is splashed in all directions. Those of the same kind behind the monster were also thrown backwards by the impact.

Although a monster was kicked to death with one kick, William's face was very ugly, because the bodies of these monsters were too strong, kicking them felt like kicking a solid rubber ball, which was so flexible that it was chilling.A monster like this, William, said that he could easily kick ten or eight of them, but if there were dozens or hundreds of them, even if he broke his legs, he wouldn't be able to kick them all, not to mention the current situation. The number of monsters is definitely quite a lot, and what is even more terrible is that the remnants of the kicked monsters have turned into meat worms again, although they seem to be much smaller than the original meat worms, and their activity is also a bit worse (that is, Creep frequency slows down), but this is definitely not what William wants to see.

What kind of monster is this?William somewhat misses the picture book he got from Mirabar back then, but it was a pity that the picture book was taken away by Elf, and it is too late to regret it now.William knows that creatures that can be called monsters in this world have somewhat special abilities, and many monsters can even be called invincible existences against the sky without knowing their weaknesses.

William didn't know if the monster in front of him also belonged to this category, but the ability of this monster is enough to cause headaches.You can sneak and raid underground, you can grow bugs by yourself, or you can fuse into a spherical individual. The vitality is tenacious enough, and the body is tough...

"The flame in the palm!" William raised his hand and shot another large-scale flame towards the monster group. This is what William can do after reaching a new level of control and understanding of the blood power in his body after he has reached the peak of transformation energy. The strongest fire technique used.Compared with the previous [flame in the palm], the current [flame in the palm] is not only more skilled in use, but also has a wider range, and the flames fired are more powerful in terms of lethality, even if the flame is hit on a bare stone On the ground, it can also burn for a long time like the napalm in the previous life, and the stone will be burned to burst.

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

Perhaps because the mobilized energy comes from the power of the blood in the body, William's self-created [flame in the palm] series did not lose its effectiveness due to changes in the magic network like Yasuna's spells and divine spells.

The icy permafrost melted and transpired rapidly under the scorching flames, and the monsters covered by the flames kept screaming in agony (spiritually).It's just that although the flames were fierce, the final result was beyond William's expectations. None of these spherical tentacle monsters were burned to death, but only some tentacles were burned off. What shocked William even more was that these monsters were slowly burning. Absorb the energy of the fire.These monsters use their tentacles with eye pupil-like crystals to slowly devour every burning spark, and as the flames absorb, their size also begins to expand, and the tentacles are burned rapidly. regeneration.

At this time, Yasuna also cried out in shock: "William! These monsters are devouring my ice power, what should we do?" "What kind of monster is this!" At this time, William's face really changed , This is the first time he has encountered this kind of monster that feeds on flames, or magical energy.

William and the others didn't know that this kind of monster was actually normal. Not to mention the few "earth turtles" like them, there were only a handful of people in Faerun who knew about the existence of this kind of spherical tentacle monster.These monsters have a unified name - Son of Haksha.Haksha is a kind of alien creature from another plane who has an extremely greedy desire for magical energy, and the son of Haksha is a derivative of Haksha after reaching the main material plane.Like many restricted powerful beings, Haksha cannot go to the main material plane with his own power. It needs the aborigines of the main material plane or the call of the gods, but based on the disloyal nature of this creature, almost no Anyone stupid enough to make a pact with a harksha, except some pompous ones.

Although William didn't know that he was facing the son of Haksha, he knew that this time it was really troublesome.With a loud shout, William suddenly exploded, his fierce legs completely turned into a hazy light and shadow, kicking all the sons of Haksha who rushed up like a ball.This time he was not hoping to kick them, but to slow down the son of Haksha so that he could carry out the next action.

The area of ​​permafrost on the ground has begun to shrink, and William shouted loudly to the Pegasus in the sky: "Mo Zou! Is there any movement around?" (Although Pegasus can't speak the common language, it can understand it. Some of them can even understand Elven language, of course, the premise is that they have lived with the elves) Mo Xiao circled above his head with a long hiss, indicating that no abnormalities were found around.

William kicked the approaching Haksha's son away and shouted back: "Yasuna, take the two little girls and ride Mo Xiao into the air! Phinea, run in the direction you came and go until..." William I wanted to say "run a mile away", but thinking that the concept of Phinia's distance is a bit tangled, William can only change the next words to "...run until you run out of strength."

Yasuna picked up Misha'er and Miluna and jumped onto Mo Xiao's horse, while Phineya ran away without saying a word, carrying the tomahawk, which was simply "heartbreaking".Only Mi Sha'er said reluctantly: "Brother, what should you do?"

"Don't worry about me! Just relying on these miscellaneous fish-like things, don't try to stop me! You go first, and I will catch up in a while." William comforted Misha with a smile, and ruthlessly pushed more Haksha The son kicked out, but in an instant, more monsters rushed up.

Mo Xiao drove Yasuna and the two little girls to chase Feniya away gradually, and Celis, who originally wanted to catch up, also followed after seeing the situation.At this time, William, who was already getting a little impatient in his heart, began to quickly swing the Autumn Water Knife. The power of the Autumn Knife is not only because of her sharpness, but also because of her attack effect on the spirit body (soul). This special effect is not a magical ability, but derived from the supernatural talent of the ghost-seeing mastiff.

Ghost-watching mastiffs may not be the most powerful creatures on the main material plane, but they are definitely the most feared natural enemies of all spirit creatures (such as Cui Heizi's magical beast partner-the black panther Guan Haifa and other spirit creatures are If the black panther is eaten by a Mingshi mastiff, then she will die forever).It just so happens that the sons of Haksha are semi-spiritual monsters, so when William danced the Autumn Water Knife into a knife curtain that could not be splashed by water, almost all the sons of Haksha who hit the knife curtain were beheaded and lost their regeneration. Before dying, these monsters crazily shook their spiritual energy to vent their pain and despair before dying.

At the same time, the sons of Haksha around him also started to go berserk. They rushed towards William like a tide, and countless spiritual shocks continuously covered every trace of his spirit.William resisted the mental shock. He reckoned that Misha'er and the others should have run out of the damage range of [Soul Storm], so he brazenly launched this terrifying killing move.

A storm in the spiritual world!Silent roar!This is a soul-destroying disaster that can destroy all weak souls. Even William who launched the [Soul Storm] felt a trembling feeling in his heart.A terrifying invisible death ripple rapidly spread around William, and all affected sons of Haksha, whether in the form of meat balls or flesh worms, whether standing on the ground or hiding Underground, almost all burst into a ball of meat sauce.Then William launched it again, and the terrifying [Soul Storm] spread rapidly again, and some hidden deep fish that slipped through the net also followed in the footsteps of their companions, turning into the mud of the fertile land.

At the same time, on the other side of the Ennook desert, in a dark bunker in the depths of Zhentil Fort, a terrifying creature was roaring angrily.This is a terrifying monster similar to the evil eye, the difference is that it has more tentacles, hundreds of them, and each ugly tentacles are filled with pale yellow eyes full of anger. On the fleshy spherical body is a huge and terrifying mouth.

Frantic convulsions of the monster's hideous tentacles thrashed the air, and an evil, hoarse voice roared, "Who? Who killed my child! Tempus Blackthorne! Damn Blackthorne! My child almost They were all killed, this is a disgrace! According to my agreement with your master, the Dark Lord, I must devour five hundred fan slaves..."

"Fifty... We can only provide so many for the time being..." A gloomy human voice sounded unhurriedly.

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

With his eyes slightly closed, William sat cross-legged quietly on the meat-scattered ground, holding the autumn water knife in his palms across his knees, like a sleeping stone sculpture.

To launch [Soul Storm] is not without cost, except for the first time because you are in a special state of soul devouring, you can use [Soul Storm] wantonly when you are full of energy after devouring a large number of ghosts, under normal circumstances Every time William uses [Soul Storm], he consumes a lot of energy. Once the energy is exhausted, he has to immerse his mind in the autumn water knife in order to use the spirituality of the sword (after all, William uses his mind to nurture the water mill of the sword every day) The homework is not done in vain) to restore the lost mental power.

The Sons of Haksha are semi-spiritual monsters, so their flesh and blood rots faster than ordinary creatures (of course, it is also more smelly). When William opened his eyes again, there were only corpses on the ground. There were only a few traces left, and he looked at the empty battlefield, and he couldn't help feeling like a dream in his heart.

"William! Brother——" Misha'er's shout suddenly came from far away in the sky, and William looked up, only to see a person and a rider in the distance flying towards this side at high speed.When the flying one got closer, I saw that it was Mi Sha'er and Mo Xiao. The little girl looked a bit embarrassed at this time, the horned helmet on her head was tilted to one side, and her long fiery red hair was messed up by the wind. , with red eye circles, and tear stains on her delicate little face, the only thing that is quite special is that the little girl's right hand has been tightly grasping her fine gold thorn sword.

"Misha'er?!" Because of the contract, William could vaguely sense that Pegasus didn't feel any danger from Yasuna and the others, and he was a little strange about the little girl appearing alone.

Before Mo Xiao fell back to the ground, Mi Sha'er couldn't wait to jump off the horse. This dangerous act that seriously violated the "traffic rules" really scared William, and he hurried forward to catch the reckless The little girl held her in her arms pitifully, and asked with some doubts and worries, "Why did you come back alone? What about Yasuna and the others?"

Misha'er arched her little head in William's embrace, and said, "Fineya, Miluna, and Yasuna are still in the woods over there." The big beautiful eyes were filled with tears, and he looked at William with great attachment, "It's great to be able to lie in my brother's arms like this! William—"

William held Misha'er in one hand, supported the little girl's tilted helmet with the other hand, and said with a smile, "Don't cry, don't cry, come and tell brother, what's the matter? Who is so courageous to bully you?" my little Shall?"

Misha shook her head, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her small hand, but swung the rapier with the other hand, and said cheerfully with the remaining tears in the corners of her eyes: "No one bullies Misha. Brother, I want to help William is fighting monsters! Oh, why are those monsters gone?"

William laughed loudly and said, "Haha! Then you are late, the monsters have all been killed by my brother, my brave Misha can only wait for the next time!"

But when the subject changed, William frowned and said again: "You and Miluna are separated, this is not good news. We have to find Phinya and the others quickly, and hope that nothing will happen to them, otherwise..."

Recalling the accident that happened when he first came into contact with Miluna, William couldn't help but feel his heart tighten. He picked up Misha'er and jumped onto Mo Xiao's horse, shouting: "We have to hurry up! Mo Xiao, go Find Phineya and the others." Pegasus Mo Zou raised his head to the sky with a long hiss, spread his hooves for a run-up, and took off into the air towards the dense forest in the distance.

Meanwhile, on the Material Plane, far beyond the Astral Realm, floats a world of constant corruption and collapse.At the center of this ever-spreading world of apocalypse, a strange island floats on a sea of ​​decay under a pale sky.The entire island was taken over by a monstrous temple, the walls of which had disappeared, leaving only the windows still in place, hanging in nothingness.

A crumbling gray stone passage rises above this sea of ​​decay, leading where not even the sight of the gods can penetrate.This may be the only way to leave this temple, but no god dares to step on this rugged passage, even the most daring and powerful existence among them, they are more worried that this passage will lead the reckless to even more horrible place.

Eternal Sleepless Eye - Heim, the guardian god, stands on the edge of this temple, watching his companions - the other gods - warily.All the gods came, in this temple, human gods, orc gods, elf gods, dwarf gods, elemental gods... even those demigods.

As the first god to be summoned here, Haim's heart was full of fear and doubts. Since becoming a god, this was the first time he encountered such an inexplicable and uncontrollable situation.Obviously, he was not the only one who encountered the same situation. One after another gods were forcibly summoned here one after another. Every god was extremely afraid and confused.

This terrible call is a terrible and terrifying nightmare to all gods.To Mystra, the Goddess of Magic, it looks like the silliest of magical blunders; to the beautiful God of Love and Beauty, Sheena Firefare, it is an ugly and disgusting rotting beast. The troll, dragged the goddess to her howling fate; to Bane, the dark lord, that call was more hated than the brightest justice, and when the dark lord was forcibly taken from his kingdom, Bending to the light of order seared his wicked soul.

Heim moved his eyes a little, and looked at each of these former arrogant, arrogant, or cruel companions with anxiety, even the most powerful among them.Mystra, the Lord of Darkness, Bane, and the Lord of Death, Mokui, were arguing with each other sharply. On one side, Lila, the goddess of joy, had a slightly melancholy expression on her face, and her hands kept stirring each other.Beside her, Irmat, the God of Suffering and Endurance, was dancing and dancing with a sly smile, talking nervously to himself from time to time.

As Heim observed his companions, a group of gods less affected by the call gathered around him.They thought that the guardian god who arrived at the earliest must know something. The dignity and restraint of the gods were no longer important to them. They kept threatening and shouting at the guardian god, wanting to know more from Haim. Much news.

"My home is destroyed! My temple in the astral world is shattered!"

"I lost all the petitioners, my kingdom of God is almost..."

They kept complaining to Heim, but the Guardian God ignored them, because the surrounding environment had undergone some unpredictable changes that the gods could not predict.

The pale sky above the island was originally dotted with some black stars, but now it radiated light that even the gods could not look directly at, and some runes were condensed on the ivory sky.Haim struggled to read these runes, but his strong body of God kept shaking.

"Everything has become a thing of the past. Our knowledge, our beliefs, and our laws have all been turned into eternal lies. The age of the gods is over."

When Heim finished reading these, the runes disappeared.The sound of distant thunder drifted along with a dark cloud carrying black lightning, and the temple was shrouded in cloud.The white sky was obscured by clouds and mist, and the gray passage sank into the sea of ​​decay.Haim couldn't help suspecting that this was a trick played by a summoned god to intimidate other gods, but he quickly dismissed this idea, knowing that this rune was made by a power stronger than all the gods present—all Sent by Io, the king of gods.

So powerful is Io's will - it is said that he created a balance between order and chaos in the mists of chaos at the beginning of time.In this balance comes life: first the gods in the heavens, then the mortals in the kingdom.In a word, Io is the most powerful god-king above the gods, and Heim is regarded by the creator Io as his right and left hand.

Haim said loudly to the restless gods: "Io gathered us here, of course he has a purpose! Please wait patiently here, everything will become clear soon." Then the guardian god calmed down and meditated The connotation of the will of Io, the king of the gods.

But Talos, the irritable god of destruction, waited impatiently. He stepped forward and shouted: "I say! Let all these tricks that should be destroyed be over! If our god-king wants to issue any will, He should directly pour everything he wants to express into our empty souls and minds with his supreme wisdom, instead of playing tricks here." Talos provoked the atmosphere as contemptuously as possible, trying to arouse the resonance of the gods, so as to reverse the situation Unknown panic situation.But none of the gods stepped forward to respond and pay attention to him, because they clearly knew the nature of the powerful King of Destruction's Seri, and the Destroyer was as afraid as they were.

All the gods kept away from the surroundings of Talos, fearing that the terrible fate of the Destroyer who might have offended Io would affect them.The isolated Talos closed his mouth resentfully, the other gods also remained silent, and the entire temple was terribly silent.And the silence that foreshadows an answer that shocks the gods more than any statement, represents a finality, the finality of the judgment of the king of the gods.And so the gods came to understand that their fate was decided long before they were called.

All the gods were getting more and more panicked. Whether it was a weak demigod or a powerful elemental god, every god was anxiously waiting for the final outcome, which came from the judgment of the creator, Io.

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

The silence of the gods was finally broken.

"Defenders of balance, kneel down! Wait for my sentence—" This is the voice of Io, whose supreme authority made all the gods present kneel down. Only the rebellious Bane managed to maintain himself , only one knee touched the cold floor.

"You have the most sacred and great mission bestowed by all things, to stabilize the balance scale that can be overturned at any time, and to maintain the harmony between order and chaos. It is a pity that you, ignorant, have committed ridiculous crimes rashly, To commit theft in your childish struggle for power..."

"Ban! Destruction is your inevitable destiny..." The first person to be judged by the king of gods, Io, was the king of darkness. The weakness of mortals. "But you should be thankful for yourself, because compared to your accomplices, the fate of those traitors, destruction—is an absolute pity."

The loyal and almost rigid guardian god Haim stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty Io, I was the one who kept those slates, please allow me—"
