The journey from Sousal to Dark Light Village only takes one day.
After Leonard and Disma got in the car, Aaron didn't talk to them, but checked his weapons and equipment.
He counted all the resources he could use now:
Two weapons: Dark Moon Sword, extremely rare magic weapon, extraordinary weapon.
The energy storage staff is an extraordinary magic item that has a certain amount of magic energy stored in it.
Equipment: Purple Dragon Knights standard armor, ordinary grade.
Prop: Sapphire Flash Necklace, a rare magic prop that can launch two additional missiles after releasing a ring of magic chaos missiles, and strengthen all chaos missiles.
Shield Brooch, a non-ordinary magic item, immune to magic missiles, and resistant to force field magic.
Frost Giant Belt, improves the wearer's physical fitness by 3 levels and has fire resistance.
The Red Ring of Conrad, a rare magic prop, can convert blood into magic power for one minute. Currently, Aaron can convert the magic power of a 2-ring magic once used.
The income from the last adventure deducted the donations to the Silver Virgin Church, the donations to the civilians of Wanxing Town, the commission to the Dragon Teeth Gang, the expenses of copying the scrolls from the warlock lady, and the expenses of 7,788, and then added Alice Searle’s 1,000 gold coin reward and so on.
Aaron's current available cash is almost 2,000 gold lion coins.
What can you do with 2000 gold lion coins?
You can find a place in Cormyr to buy a manor, buy a piece of land, build a walled villa, buy a few pretty maids, and live a life of collecting rent and living in poverty.
What can you do with 2000 gold lion coins?
A piece of full-body plate armor inlaid with ordinary anti-puncture runes, ordinary extraordinary equipment, and I still owe the dwarf blacksmith 500 gold lion coins.
During his more than a month of magic practice, Aaron had time to go to the master blacksmith inside the Purple Dragon Knight and asked how much a full-body leather armor of white dragon skin would cost.
The blacksmith made a "1" sign.
"One thousand gold lion coins?" Aaron immediately wanted to pay.
"Ten thousand gold lion coins." The blacksmith added helplessly: "This is the cost price, Your Excellency, not counting the processing cost. I can give you a cheaper price, a 15% commission. I also want to eat."
It’s so expensive! Aaron thought helplessly.
"What's wrong? Aaron, don't you welcome us?"
After University Dean Leonard had tidied up his appearance and used a mirror to confirm the position of his robe and badge, the knotting method of his scarf, and the exposed size of the lining of his sleeves, he smiled at Aaron.
"Tsk! It's too late for the stinky boy to refuse. We're already here. This is the stinky old man's order. We won't listen to you."
Compared to Leonard, Disma is a rather slovenly guy. The leather armor robe he wears is in tatters, and the lining sleeves are all frayed. His hair is messy and spread out, with only a knife on his waist. The sword received the greatest attention and the best care from its owner.
"No." Aaron shook his head: "It's just because I stayed in Susar for more than a month and had to receive special magic training from my instructor all day long. I finally got the chance to come out. I couldn't wait. But you guys came, and I still I’m still digesting the surprise you brought me!”
As soon as he said this, Leonard couldn't help but laugh, and even Disma turned his gaze outside the car window and raised the corners of his mouth.
Aaron's words made both seniors feel that Aaron must be an easy person to get along with during the trip.
The Sons of Chaos have changed their mindset from that of Slaanesh to that of Tzeentch.
So, what is the Tzeentch mindset?
To put it most simply, it's a tough talk.
If it succeeds, it's the plan; if it doesn't, it's the change. Tzeentch will never lose.
All actions have a planned plan. Through clever logic, precise thinking and strategic tactics, the maximum gain is achieved at the minimum cost. This is also Tzeentch.
Enjoy every change in the plan, observe every change in the world, every success is the credit of Tzeentch, every failure is also the success of Tzeentch, because every trembling of the thread of fate makes Tzeentch's eternal love The understanding is even closer, this is also Tzeentch.
Plans often take unexpected turns, and the Master of Change's machinations are often hidden.
Her happiness is incomprehensible to mortals.
"Your literacy is very poor. Now I recite the name of Saint Tzeentch every day, and treat you idiots who only have muscles in their minds as monkeys to kill you. This is the confidence that the Magic Bird God has given me. This is unbelief. The fate of the Lord of Change.”
————Tzeentch wizard’s taunt to Khorne’s champion
"It's not that the smelly old man is afraid that something will happen to you because you are still young." Disma still looked out the window: "Before, when you went out, you had your Silver Virgin Priest and an experienced barbarian. This time you only have one People, so he asked us to come and take a look, tsk, look at you like this, still so childish, like a child, no wonder the smelly old man said that."
"Disma, don't be like this, have you forgotten? When our mentor took us to the wild for the first time, you were hopping around like a rabbit in the forest! My mentor and I chased you for a whole afternoon. !" Leonard spread his hands, and the college president smiled happily as he recalled the past.
"Ha, who wasn't a kid once?" Aaron simply couldn't imagine that this scene would happen to Disma.
"Tsk, I was only eight years old at the time!" Disma said impatiently: "It's not like the smelly old man has locked me up for too long. It's painful to stay in the city and I have too much time."
"Kid, kid~" Aaron made a face, Chaos's nature was to cause trouble.
"Can I throw this guy down?" Disma asked Leonard.
"Haha~ Okay, okay, please stop arguing." Leonard quickly motioned to the two of them to stop: "Junior, tell us the situation."
"Okay." Aaron also became serious and began to tell the two seniors about the task entrusted with a value of only 1 copper coin.
This time he did not hide anything, but told the general story, only concealing the news that the fisherman couple was secretly sent to the city by the Longya Gang through smuggling channels.
"Warlock of the Dark Sun?"
Sure enough, both seniors were surprised, especially the college president Leonard, whose face showed an expression of hatred almost immediately.
Cyric, Prince of the Dark Sun! The successor of the three gods of death and the enemy of the three gods of justice!
Leonard is a devout believer in Thom, the god of loyalty and courage. Since his father "Grand Cross" died at the hands of the Zhentarim and was adopted by Lucian, this university president once fell into loneliness, depression, and isolation. , he once cried and asked the gods for enlightenment as to why fate had to treat him like this.
Among the gods, there was a god full of courage and faith who responded to Leonard.
That is Thom, the god of loyalty and courage. He told Leonard that his father's sacrifice was valuable. There is only one life for a person. The value of life is comparable to the endless holy light at the top of Heavenly Mountain, and it can also be compared to the mortal world. The most anonymous gravel on the beach, it depends on how you use it.
Don’t ask for everything you want, but ask for a clear conscience.
Since then, Leonard has become a devout believer in the Three Gods of Justice. He mainly believes in Thom, the god of loyalty and courage. He has become a glorious paladin and swore an oath of dedication to fight for all justice and beauty in the multiverse. .
"Since I am a magician from the Dark Sun, it is impossible for you, my junior, to get me out of the car now!" Leonard closed his eyes. Although he was still smiling, the smell of Mars could already be smelled in the car: " In the name of justice, why didn’t you tell me about such a good thing? God above!"
"Yes, the three gods are on top! You know the three gods are on top!" Disma curled his lips and mocked.
The Three Gods of Justice are the collective name for the three gods. They are Tyr, the god of justice, Ermat, the god of suffering, and Tom, the god of loyalty and courage. The three gods form the justice system. Tyr, the powerful god, is The head of the justice deity.
Tyr is said to be a foreign deity who came to the country from other crystal wall systems in 247 BC in the Valley. Her appearance triggered a major event "Justice Comes", which brought the justice that people longed for to the country that was in the midst of a crazy melee at that time. and order, so Yinrmat, the god of suffering, and Tom, the god of loyalty and courage, were infected by her spirit and joined her team. The three gods formed the justice system. This was considered a major event in the country. Since then, , the country has the concept of justice.
The name Tire always seemed familiar to Aaron.
The god of war and courage in Norse mythology in his previous life seemed to be named Tyr?
Among the three gods of justice, Aaron prefers Tire and Thom, but hates Yin Ermat, because the teachings of the God of Suffering are to praise suffering, praise poverty and happiness, and praise selfless dedication and silent sacrifice. Aaron held a meeting in his previous life to write these things. I feel like vomiting when I read the manuscript. I am a child of chaos in this life, so I am really tired of these things about Yin Ermat.
He respects Yin Ermat. The God of suffering is a very good God. She protects all the little lives that died in infancy. She has endured the pain for this world. Therefore, Aaron's attitude is respect, but not cold, very cold!
In recent years, as Prince Cyric of the Dark Sun inherited all the authority of the Three Gods of Death, she naturally became the enemy of the Three Gods of Justice, but the Prince of the Dark Sun quickly proved himself to be powerful - she is now almost Already enemies of all the gods, her madness shocked them all.
As we all know, the three gods of death represent the most evil symbols of all things in the world, but even so, the three gods of death still have a positive meaning.
The strife symbolized by Bane, the god of tyranny, not only brings disaster to the world, but also represents the power of progress. Without contradictions, progress cannot be made, and without conflict, things cannot be resolved. At the same time, the absolute dictatorship advocated by Bane is in the minority. Special times are considered necessary and efficient.
The death symbolized by Baal, the Lord of Slaughter, is also considered to be a manifestation of survival of the fittest. Life and death are the two sides of the coin, transforming each other. Without death, the world of the living will fall into disorder and madness.
Melkor, the King of Bones, is the King of the Dead and is responsible for the peace of the souls in the underworld.
Melkor actually did not do a good job in her position as the King of the Dead, and was far inferior to the ancient god of death Jaeger before her. Melkor's attitude towards the dead was to "dispose", which is quite the essence of bureaucrats.
Not in awe of me? Then our dead souls cannot rest in peace.
Don't listen to me? Then our dead souls cannot rest in peace.
Don't do what I say? Then our dead souls cannot rest in peace.
Don't pay enough of my required fees? Then our dead souls cannot rest in peace.
Question my approach? Then our dead souls cannot rest in peace.
Melkor's actions have made the gods and mortals very angry. They feel that there is something wrong with the ancient god of death's brain when he chose Melkor to be the next king of the dead.
But no matter what, Melkor at least promised one thing, that is, respect her, do what she asks, listen to her, and pay the fee, and she will at least ensure the rest of the souls.
After Cyric, Prince of the Dark Sun, took control of the Ministry of the Dead, he actually did worse than Melkor!
Changing orders day and night, constantly changing regulations, and asking for more money over and over again. Only in this way can you rest today, and in this way can you rest tomorrow. Cyric regarded the priesthood of the dead as her own cash cow and a means to expand her faith. She not only used this method over and over again Blackmailing mortals, and assigning various targets all day long, requiring the priests in charge of the cemetery of the dead to complete their tasks.
Not only that, Cyric also ordered her priests to "show loyalty" to him, implemented the last elimination system, and constantly tried to influence the souls of the underworld, trying to gain more benefits from the countless souls resting in peace.
This is a lunatic! Real madman!
It had only been more than two years since the Saint's Catastrophe ended, and it had only been more than two years since Cyric, the Prince of the Dark Sun, became a god. She had already used a series of crazy methods to make him almost a public enemy among the gods.
Mortals were even forced to miss Melkor, the previous King of the Dead.
Do you need a reason to hate and dislike Cyric?
unnecessary.
Do you need a reason to deal with this madman Cyric?
unnecessary.
With Tzeentch in his head, Aaron made Leonard and Disma stand on the same side with him and share the same hatred with him with just a few words.
"Great, I thought this matter was related to the Ocean Goddess. If it is Dark Sun, then there is no need for any mercy or scruples." Leonard's eyes turned cold.
"Isn't this simple?" Disma was full of disdain: "He is just an elite magician. The three of us brothers can easily defeat him alone!"
"Don't be careless, senior." Aaron shook his head: "Cyric's follower is also a sorcerer. We must be careful."
"And, do you feel it?" Aaron secretly glanced out the window: "Someone is following us secretly!"
…………
The one-day journey was not long. The next day, the three brothers arrived at Dark Light Village, a small fishing village in the east of Mashanbai.
Dark Light Village is just an ordinary fishing village. From a big city to an ordinary village, the scenery here has changed greatly. There is a strong smell of sea in the air. Wood has become a luxury here. Most of the buildings are Made of mud brick or stone.
Dark Light Village is named after the sea area here. There is a high cliff near this village. Whenever the sun goes down, the sunlight will be blocked by the cliff. The beach outside the fishing village where the sunset cannot shine will form a shadow with the distant ocean. Due to the contrast, it is called a dark light village.
People from the Longya Gang have been waiting here for a long time. When Aaron arrived at the meeting point, a tall and thin man from the Longya Gang wearing ragged fisherman's clothes introduced the situation here to Aaron.
The warlock Mepham has recently been disguising himself as a fortune teller and living in a cave under a cliff outside the village. There are countless magic traps there, and the Dragon Teeth Gang dare not approach them.
However, Mepham would come to the tavern in Darklight Village every day. He would have a meal here, pack some food, and wait for the smuggling ship to go out to sea. He would also ask the tavern owner about Cormyr's recent movements.
"He plans to go to sea here?"
"Yes, Your Excellency, there are smuggling ships docking here all the time." The smuggler from the Longya Gang said in a low voice. He did not dare to look directly at Leonard's sanctioning eyes: "But the recent inspections have been strict, and there are very few smuggling ships." Stop here."
"Any other news?" Aaron then asked.
"Your Excellency, there is something wrong with the situation in this village." Longya Gang members whispered: "The villagers are feeling more and more calls. The sea is calling them. Some people have abandoned the belief in the sea goddess and turned to a certain religion. Some greater and stranger beings.”
"Even we heard an incomprehensible language in our sleep."
Sure enough, I guessed right.
The warlock Mepham has made two preparations. He is secretly performing some kind of ritual!
Aaron narrowed his eyes, his mind began to spin crazily, and the divine sparks of Tzeentch spread along his blood vessels and rushed straight to his forehead.
Tzeentch Brainstorm!
A few minutes later, Aaron turned around and spoke to the two seniors: "President, second senior, can you perform a stage play with me?"
"Say." "Tsk, I don't like performing at all." Both Leonard and Disma affirmed.
"I have a plan, your just have to trust me! (I have a plan, you just have to do what I say)"
Aaron showed a mysterious smile, and the phantom of a strange bird flashed in his pure sky-blue eyes.
After hearing Aaron's plan, the two seniors were a little undecided.
Is this some...
new
