Savior Simulator

While the monster was crawling slowly, it was still twisting its tentacles and scratching itself, trying to dig out the bullet deeply embedded in its body.

This intention was obvious.

The monster had already discovered that the bullet that hit it was attached with the "silence spell", which made it unable to make a sound to call the police.

Gao Fei certainly couldn't let it dig out the silenced bullet, yell and attract more bandits.

While he was invisible, Gao Fei raised his hand and shot the "scorching ray".

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Three lines of fire were shot out in succession.

The huge monster, with a shell as hard as granite, must have a very high natural armor.

And judging from its clumsy crawling movements, its agility attribute must not be very high.

Using magic rays to deal with this type of monster is the easiest to break the defense.

As expected, three rays hit the monster one after another, and including the sneak attack special effect, a total of 70 points of damage were caused!

Including the last shot, Gao Fei had already caused nearly 100 points of damage to it, but the strong monster did not fall down, and it was estimated that there was only about 1/10 of its health left.

Wow! Is it so tough? !

Gao Fei quickly opened the star disk to check the details of this monster.

It turned out that this was a large monster called "Tree Rope Monster", with a challenge level of 6.

The tree rope monster is indeed as thick-skinned and tough as it looks, with 104 health points, natural armor of up to 14, and various attributes: strength 23, agility 8, constitution 19, intelligence 9, perception 16, charm 12.

The tree rope monster is naturally good at mimicry, and when it is still, it looks exactly like a thick stalactite column.

When it makes a "disguise (deception)" check, it counts double the proficiency modifier, and the double dice are better.

The prey deceived by the tree rope monster with disguise will be attacked and entangled by the tentacles if it approaches the monster within 60 feet.

The tentacles of the tree rope monster are very resilient. Even if they are cut off by a sharp blade, they can automatically regenerate after one round.

The surface of the tentacles secretes a mucus like super glue, and it is difficult to break free once entangled.

The prey entangled by the tree rope monster's tentacles must make a Fortitude save every round. Each time the save fails, it will accumulate 1 level of "exhaustion".

Accumulating 6 levels of exhaustion will directly die of cardiopulmonary failure.

In fact, most prey captured by the tree rope monster do not even deserve this more humane way of death. Instead, they are stuffed into the big mouth full of sharp teeth by the tentacles and bitten to pieces.

In addition, the tree rope monster also has talents such as "alertness", "improved initiative", "improved grappling", "weapon focus" and "multi-attack".

Fortunately, Gao Fei accidentally broke the disguise of the tree rope monster with a shot, otherwise as long as he took two steps forward and entered the attack range of the tentacles, he would most likely be entangled and die directly.

At this time, the tree rope demon had discovered that the intruder was good at invisibility, so it twisted a tentacle and probed into the hole on its body where the lantern was placed.

It took out the lantern and shone it towards the area where Gao Fei was hiding.

The magical light swept across Gao Fei's body, immediately dispelling the "invisibility" he had just cast, and also lit a circle of violet fluorescence on his body, making him particularly conspicuous.

Gao Fei's heart trembled, and he made a spell-casting gesture without thinking.

"Vala!"

Before the tree rope demon's tentacles swung over, Gao Fei fired five magic missiles.

HP-21!

The remaining life of the tree rope demon could not withstand the continuous attack of missiles, and its body collapsed, and the six tentacles also decomposed into rotten clay-like substances after death.

Gao Fei's heart, which was hanging in his throat, finally fell back into his stomach.

Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, he opened the star disk and checked his own status. He found that he was marked with the "demon fire" mark and could not be invisible within 10 minutes.

The tree rope monster does not have the ability to cast spells. Gao Fei guessed that the "demon fire" probably came from the mysterious magic lantern.

He used the "magician's hand" to pick up the lantern from the corpse of the tree rope monster and identified it with the star disk.

It turned out that this was an "extraordinary" level magic device called "imaging lamp", which was specially used to deal with invisible creatures.

...

· Imaging lamp (blue, extraordinary)

Overview: It looks like an ordinary lantern. When the lampshade is removed, it can emit a magical glow with anti-invisibility function.

Synchronization requirements: Hunting creatures that are good at invisibility, or creatures of spirit, virtual body, gaseous state, etc.

Initial performance: 30 feet range, eliminate invisibility.

Level 1 synchronization: 60 feet to eliminate invisibility; mark the enemy target with the "demon fire" mark, making it impossible to be invisible, and automatically gain advantage when attacking it.

Level 2 Synchronization: Eliminate invisibility within 120 feet; mark the enemy with "demon fire"; and force gaseous, virtual, and spiritual creatures to turn back into entities.

…

Gao Fei held the "imaging light" and shone it around. After confirming that there were no invisible enemies, he opened the door to the cell.

Just as he saw with the help of the crystal ball at Father Gallup's place, there was a large iron cage against the wall of the cell, and the haggard boy was locked in the cage.

Gao Fei walked over, opened the cage, and called in a low voice.

"William, come out! Your father sent me to save you!"

The boy slowly raised his head, as if he had just woken up from a dream, with confusion in his eyes.

Gao Fei was worried that the night would be long and he would have more dreams, so he reached out to grab him and wanted to help him up.

However, at this moment, William Gordon jumped up on his own as if he had been electrocuted.

A strange red light flashed in his eyes, and he quickly drew out the rapier and stabbed Gao Fei in the heart.

Gao Fei was startled and dodged hastily.

The sharp sword passed through his armpit and scratched the inside of his left arm, causing a burning pain.

William Gordon seemed to be possessed by a demon. He said nothing and continued to swing his sword.

Gao Fei left the cage and saw the mad boy rushing to chase him, so he slammed the iron cage door shut.

Bang!

William hit the iron gate unexpectedly, and his eyes were full of stars and the world was spinning.

Gao Fei took the opportunity to pull out his pistol, turned the handle of the gun upside down, and hit him hard on the head.

A well-timed stun club knocked William to the ground and he fainted.

Gao Fei slowly exhaled, calmed down, opened the star disk to check his own status, and found that he was poisoned.

Similar to the poison needle trap on the bedroom door of "Black Hand" Cody, William's rapier was also coated with the poison of the wyvern.

Fortunately, Gao Fei brought the antidote given by Father Gallup with him. He quickly took the antidote and performed "first aid" to stop the bleeding.

Then, Gao Fei checked William's health.

No wonder this kid suddenly had a seizure and couldn't tell friend from foe.

It turned out that he was cursed!

To be precise, William's sword was cursed.

Anyone who holds the hilt of the sword will be cursed if he fails to pass the will exemption. He will become heartless and stab anyone he sees, like a mad dog!

Gao Fei recalled that when he used the crystal ball to detect William before, he felt very strange at the time. Why didn't the kidnappers disarm him?

Now I finally understand.

It turned out that this was an insidious trap!
