"You...what did you do to my phylactery?" Vanessa stared at the small card in Zuo Si's hand with wide eyes, her whole body becoming extremely nervous.
Although he has become an undead creature and no longer needs to process images through his eyes and brain, the habits he has developed for a long time cannot be changed in a short time.
Zuo Si smiled and replied: "Nothing. I just made it more inconspicuous and easier to keep. Don't worry, there will be no problem with your phylactery." The next second... the card in his hand was on the opponent's side. disappeared without a trace under his gaze.
no doubt! This is a naked and unabashed display of power, and it is also a warning to the new lich in front of him that it is best not to have any inappropriate thoughts.
After all, the opponent's spellcasting level is much higher than Zuo Si. And choosing to specialize in necromancy magic also means that you must be in the evil camp.
So he had to make the guy in front of him clearly realize that he had no chance. Only by clarifying this point can the relationship between the two parties have a solid foundation.
To become a LV15 high-level mage, Vanessa certainly couldn't be an idiot. She understood what Zuo Si meant almost instantly, and immediately bent down and bowed deeply.
"Don't worry, I'm not stupid enough to break the agreement. On the contrary, I will serve you in accordance with the agreement for at least a hundred years. During this period, your enemy is my enemy, and your wish is my goal. .”
"I feel more at ease when I hear you say this. But I won't let you get anything for your efforts in vain. Here, here are some knowledge, notes and spells about necromancy magic. I hope it can be useful to you in the future. The magic path helps." As he spoke, Zuo Si took out the books he had copied in advance and placed them in front of the lich.
Some of them come from the Necromancer Asta, and some of them come from the "Book of the Dead".
For any mage who specializes in the necromancy system, their value cannot be measured in terms of money.
Vanessa just opened one of the books and glanced at it twice, and was immediately deeply attracted by the content. The two nine-ring spells recorded in it [Undead Catastrophe] and [Soul Binding Technique] gave him hope of understanding and touching the deepest magic network.
You must know that no arcane spell caster who has the ability to cast eight-ring magic would not be eager to learn and use the nine-ring spell, which is known as the most powerful one under legendary magic.
After being silent for a long time, Vanessa finally raised her head and smiled: "Thank you for your kindness. I think we will get along very happily."
"This is what I hope for. After all, cooperation can only be sustained for a long time if both parties benefit." Zuo Si said meaningfully.
After taking care of the new lich, he stopped disturbing the other party to prepare spells for the possible battle that would break out next, and turned around and walked to Wilmes' side.
"Is something wrong?" The red dragon, who was still in human form, asked after checking his face.
"How much do you know about Bertorgas' secret cooperation with the Dragon Worship Cult?" Zuo Si asked in a low voice.
…Obviously, he suspected the hidden
In addition to the confirmed Zhentarim, the enemies in "Lucky Valley" should also include the Dragon Cult. Because when fighting Bertorgas, this male red dragon directly summoned several spellcaster allies from the Dragon Worship Cult.
This means that the hiding place of the cult should be near the Xingxuan Mountains. If it is further away, it may exceed the maximum distance that can be reached by a one-time teleportation of the fifth-ring [Teleportation Technique].
After all, the behavior of the Dragon Worship Cult determines that they cannot establish their stronghold in cities, but only in inaccessible mountains and forests.
Coupled with the need to deal with dragons that have long been in the evil camp, the only place in the surrounding area that meets the conditions is the Star Swirl Mountains.
Wilmes shook his head slightly: "Sorry, I really don't know about this matter. Bertorgas has always been mysterious. The only thing I know is that he had sex with a group of human spellcasters several times. We cooperated and successfully attacked several elven villages on the edge of the Wildas Forest. Mainly to satisfy our appetite. After all, the taste of elven meat is much better than that of humans."
"Are those human spellcasters members of the Dragon Worship Cult?" Zuo Si asked curiously.
"I don't know. Maybe, maybe not. But I think Bertorgas is just deceiving the other party and doesn't really want to transform into a dracolich. Because for a red dragon in its prime, its own Their power is growing rapidly, and they will not consider turning themselves into undead creatures at all. Only those old dragons who feel that they may not be able to survive the next transformation into ancient dragons or ancient dragons will accept the proposal of the Dragon Worship Cult. , let them help him transform into a dracolich." Wilmes gave an analysis from the perspective of the red dragon.
Because transforming into a dracolich means losing the self-esteem and pride of being a dragon, and at the same time being ridiculed and despised by other people of the same kind.
Almost all existing dracolich in Faerûn will die socially as soon as they become identified. This is why members of the Dragon Cult continue to offer treasures to those evil dragons to help them achieve various evil purposes, but in the end very few are willing to fulfill the agreement and transform into dracolich.
Most evil dragons just regard the Dragon Cult as a group of fools who can be used, and then kick them away after using them.
Realizing that this cult that has frightened countless people throughout Faerûn, the dragons may not even think about it in their hearts.
The "spare tire" was not even considered. The expression on Zuo Si's face immediately became very strange, and he continued to ask: "Then the Dragon Worship Cult will not take revenge afterwards?"
"Retaliation?" Wilmes smiled contemptuously.
"How to take revenge? Don't forget, their teaching is to worship the dragon as a god, and believe that the world will eventually be ruled by the dragon after death. Even more than 80% of the believers exist for the sake of the giant dragon. Dragon service. Slightly larger strongholds will teach the believers how to wipe scales, decorate dragon lairs, hatch dragon eggs, and take care of young dragons. And after reaching an agreement with the Dragon Worship Cult, they will provide a certain amount of treasure every once in a while.… The only requirement is that when being hunted, members can temporarily hide in the dragon's lair for refuge. In the eyes of many dragons, they are even similar to slaves and servants such as kobolds and orcs."
"Hahahaha! It sounds really humble." Zuo Si finally couldn't help laughing. To be honest, he really couldn't understand why a powerful legendary spellcaster like Sammaster, who was once a chosen one of the Goddess of Magic, would create such a ridiculous organization as the Dragon Cult.
You must know that dragons are one of the most difficult creatures to tame and control in the world. It was impossible for metal dragons from the good camp to accept transformation into the evil undead form of dracolich, so members of the organization were destined to develop color dragons from the evil camp.
But since they are all dragons from the evil camp, naturally they all put their own interests first. The evil and chaotic red dragon and black dragon may turn against each other at any time and kill all the people who went to the Dragon Worship Sect without leaving any one behind.
Although the lawful evil blue dragons and green dragons are better, they are very likely to just use the people of the Dragon Cult as slaves and cannon fodder.
As for
The white dragon of "True Dragon's Shame" generally doesn't like to communicate. They usually simply skip the dialogue part and attack directly, without giving the Dragon Cult members a chance to speak.
I really don’t know if Sammaster, the leader himself, would behave so humbly when facing the dragon.
Or maybe he regards the members of the organization as human beings at all, and only regards them as tools to achieve his own evil purposes.
"Do you know how many giant dragons live in the Xingxuan Mountains? How many of them are from the evil camp?" Zuo Si thought for a moment and then quickly asked a question he was most concerned about.
He needed to confirm how many potential allies the Dragon Cult had in this area. Wilmes lowered his head and thought for about two or three minutes before answering in an uncertain tone: "As far as I know, there are four red dragons settled around this mountain range, not including Balagas."
"Flying Flame". As for the green dragon, there seem to be two. The black dragon and the blue dragon are not sure. The white dragon probably won't like to build a nest in such a warm environment. "
"Okay, I understand. You should also prepare a little and join in tonight's action." Zuo Si finally realized that asking questions like this was in vain.
On the one hand, Wilmes himself is not the kind of red dragon who likes to use his brain, let alone spend time collecting such intelligence and information.
On the other hand, dragons are far more defensive against their own kind than other races. He will not easily tell anyone the exact location of his nest, not even his biological parents.
This is reflected to the extreme in the group of five-color evil dragons.
"Me? Are you sure?" Wilmes raised his eyebrows in surprise. You must know that she does not have any professional level, nor has she learned how to use weapons and equipment to fight in human form.
This means that once she encounters a strong enemy, she will inevitably transform into a red dragon form and use her flame breath, claws, teeth, tail and wings to kill the opponent.
Zuo Si nodded meaningfully: "Yes. Because I have a very strong hunch that the Zhentarim should join forces with the Dragon Worship Cult this time. And their trump card should be a dragon lich, and they may need you then. the power of."…
"If I kill the Dracolich in battle, can I take half of its property?" Wilmes narrowed his eyes and asked tentatively.
As a red dragon with an evil and greedy nature, she will obviously never stop craving more treasures.
Zuo Si, who heard this sentence, was amused and quickly responded: "If you can do this without the help of others, then I promise that you can take away half of the Dragon Lich treasure, but not any Magic items.”
"Deal!" Wilmes was afraid that Zuo Si would regret it, so he quickly agreed. She obviously hadn't seriously considered whether she could really deal with a powerful dracolich.
But Zuo Si didn't bother to remind him. After all, it's good to let this guy who just rushes along recklessly suffer a little loss occasionally to build up his memory and brain.
In this way, the caravan set up camp in advance before dusk. Due to the magic item [Endless Kettle], even though the caravan has a large number of people and livestock, it does not need to find a water source every time it sets up camp.
After a while, a large iron pot was set up and began to boil hot water. The slaves responsible for cooking cut the bacon, bacon, and cured meat carried on the carriage into small pieces and threw them in, stewing them with potatoes, carrots, cabbage, onions, beans and other vegetables that would not go bad if they were carried for a long time.
Some pots cook salted fish, kelp and some dehydrated and dried shell meat. As for the staple food, of course it is hard black bread, which is cheap, filling, and can also be used as a self-defense weapon at critical moments.
I always like to maximize
Bernard, who was "saving money", was finally not completely disappointed. The brown bread he bought had just a little more bran at best, and did not add such terrible things as sawdust.
Of course, these seemingly unappetizing dishes were only for slaves and hired civilians.
In comparison, the mercenaries eat much better. Not only is there relatively fresh meat and fish, but the bread is also relatively expensive white bread, or large flatbreads baked with wheat flour.
As for the food here at Zuo Si, it was basically the same as the food at the hotel in the city. Inside the huge tent, the tables were densely packed with more than thirty plates of dishes exuding tempting aromas.
The halfling Welby, who aspired to become a great chef, took the recipes given to him by Zuo Si and cooked them himself, successfully making a lot of exotic delicacies that were full of color, flavor and flavor.
And compared with most restaurants in Faerûn that don't pay attention to presentation at all, these dishes today are carefully designed when presented on the plate, and the bright color combinations look full of appetite.
"The goddess of wealth holds gold! This...is this the special delicacy of Karatu in the far eastern continent? It's unbelievable! I feel that none of the so-called high-end restaurants I have eaten in Amn can compare with Comparable to that." Bernard sighed in admiration while swallowing his saliva.
Likewise, he saw unlimited business opportunities in these exquisite foods.
"Hey! These are just a small part of the recipes. When I arrive in Askatra, I must make sure everyone in Amn knows that I, Welby, am the greatest chef in Faerûn. Of course, in Before that, I would like to ask Mr. Soth to taste the taste of these dishes and see if there is anything that needs to be improved."... With a flattering smile on his face, the halfling put a little of each dish on an empty plate. Inside, he brought it to Zuo Si, his eyes full of expectation.
He had already tasted the taste of these dishes just now, so he was full of confidence. Looking at the familiar colors and flavors on the plate, Zuo Si, who had tasted dark dishes often, was almost moved to tears.
This time I can finally eat something with normal taste. As for the curry-flavored green cheese, thick soup made with broken bread crumbs, and minced meat made from pork, fish, and various offal, I can roll them all as far as I want.
From today on, dark cuisine and I are at odds with each other! Zuo Si swore that even if he starved to death, he would never touch any food that looked abnormal again.
Putting on the air of a gourmet, he resisted the urge to eat haise, pretended to taste the taste of each dish, and immediately nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad! It has basically reached the normal level."
"Great!" Welby jumped up excitedly after being affirmed, as if he had already seen the spectacular scene of the restaurant being overcrowded in the future.
"Don't just watch, sit down and eat together." After Zuo Si gave the signal that he could eat, Rhett, who had been waiting for a long time with a plate, immediately attacked the meat dishes closest to him.
A plate was emptied in the blink of an eye, with an extremely satisfied expression on his face. Others were not to be outdone and joined the ranks of grabbing delicious food.
After all, having such a delicious dinner in such a remote place is definitely an ultimate pleasure.
Although most people's eating habits are not very good, and can even be called rude. But Zuo Si didn't care at all.
Because in his view, things like etiquette and morality are always requirements for oneself, rather than used to restrain others.
It would be too vulgar to use these things as a tool to express your own superiority or to despise and belittle others.
After the meal was over, Bernard came to the door immediately and said enthusiastically: "Sir Soth! I think you can use your recipes to open more stores in the major towns in Amn. At that time, the focus will be on the Eastern Continent. With the style of Kara-atu, I believe there will be countless nobles and wealthy businessmen who are eager to experience the exotic customs and are willing to pay for it. If we succeed in Amn, we can continue to Baldur's Gate, Waterdeep City, Neverwinter City, etc. in the north. The expansion of Silvermoon City..."
"It's a very good proposal, I will consider it. But it's too early to talk about it now. Don't forget, there are still a lot of troubles and enemies that need to be solved on the road to Ascaltra." Zuo Si quickly interrupted The businessman's delusion.
After all, although these business plans sound very feasible and can make a lot of money, the problem is that they are just castles in the air.
"Sorry, I was reckless." Bernard quickly bowed his head and apologized. Because along the way, he has realized how easy and comfortable it can be to make money with strong power as a guarantee.
Not only do you not have to worry about being robbed by bandits and monsters, but you can also loot the other party and make high profits by using the damage these guys cause to the city.
...Similarly, Bernard was determined to tie the powerful spellcaster in front of him to him through profit no matter what.
Zuo Si easily saw through the businessman's thoughts, chuckled and shook his head: "No, you don't have to apologize. I have said more than once that you are an excellent businessman, and even most of your peers have a keener business sense. But the problem is, If your vision is just to make profits, then you will never want to be at the top of this field. In my opinion, buying a certain product from a low-price area and then selling it to a high-price area is third-rate. Businessmen, they have no ability to resist risks. Once the market price fluctuates violently, they will inevitably lose money or even go bankrupt; knowing the origin of at least one rare raw material, and then processing it into high-end commodities and then selling them is a second-rate businessman. They have control over the origin of raw materials and processing technology, and have a certain ability to resist risks, but that's about it; they monopolize the entire industry, and their products become an indispensable part of a certain country, and they promulgate restrictions on themselves through lending and buying off officials. Those who control the economy of a large area through favorable laws and other means are first-class businessmen. They control markets and channels, and can even influence politics, and are protected by the national army; on top of this, there is also a kind of super businessman. They can easily plunge a country into turmoil, chaos and civil war through economic means, or they can unify a divided land, or even turn a country into a plaything in their own hands. Tell me, what kind of businessman do you want to be? "moment!
Bernard fell into silence. It was the first time that he heard someone describe the levels of businessmen so clearly, and they were not simply based on the total amount of wealth, but were divided by influence and business methods.
Among them, the lower the level of businessmen, the worse their ability to resist risks. Senior businessmen, on the other hand, can even make huge profits from crises and risks.
There is no doubt that judging from the business scope of Bernard and the family chamber of commerce, it should be in an area between second-rate and first-rate.
Seeing the young businessman in front of him frowning and thinking seriously, Zuo Si stretched out his arm and patted his shoulder gently to comfort him: "Don't worry, you can think about it slowly, and give me a clear answer after you think about it clearly. This is related to the way we cooperate in the future, and what kind of support I will give you. Amn is the most special country in Faerûn, a country completely ruled by businessmen and money. Although its history is short, it has a very special Developed business and full of infinite possibilities. Remember! Long-term interests are the most important. Never let short-term interests blind you." After the conversation between the two ended, Zuo Si quickly calmed down. Lai lay down in the carriage and rested for a while.
When the time came to around eight o'clock in the evening, he opened his eyes, gathered his team members, and set out to
The road to "Lucky Valley". Just as Halfling Welby described it, when everyone approached this area, they were immediately deeply shocked by the extremely dangerous terrain on both sides.
Especially with a drop of more than a hundred meters above the head, even a stone the size of a fist dropped can cause considerable damage.
…It’s not strange to be hit in the head and die immediately if you’re unlucky. What's even scarier is that the roads are also very narrow.
If a huge stone is pushed down from above, the intersection will be blocked immediately.
"Damn it! This ghost place makes my hair stand on end. No wonder so many caravans have mysteriously disappeared. If someone ambush and attack at a high place, I'm afraid not many people will be able to escape alive." Rhett couldn't help but whisper. Cursed.
Not to mention him, even Wilmes, who had always been arrogant, didn't look very good. Because in this environment, even if she changes back to the red dragon form, she may be crushed to death by a boulder pushed down from a height.
Although the dragon is physically very powerful, it is not invincible. At least in front of the falling rocks weighing several tons, they were no different from other creatures.
And because the passage is too narrow, there is a certain probability that Wilmes will be stuck in the middle of the passage and unable to move.
"It seems we need to go to both sides of the cliff." Vanessa gave her own suggestion. As a local of Zhazesibo, he had already heard many rumors about this valley.
However, due to the mage's unique indifference and arrogance, he never took those caravans that disappeared inexplicably as one thing, let alone the life and death of the other party.
"Have you memorized [Flying Technique] today?" Zuo Si suddenly asked. Vanessa nodded without thinking: "Yes. Considering the terrain here, I memorized a three-ring [Flying Technique]. However, there seem to be a lot of people in the team. I'm afraid I can't let everyone fly up. .”
"It doesn't matter, I have a magic wand that can just make up for this shortcoming." As he said that, Zuo Si took out the [Memory Wand] that had never been used and handed it over.
"[Memory Wand]? This is a good thing!" Vanessa is indeed a LV15 high-level mage. She recognized the four-ring spell stored in the wand as soon as she got it.
With this thing, any three-ring magic that can be remembered today can be restored instantly. Just when he was about to start chanting a spell to release the [Flying Technique], a creepy sound suddenly came from the top of one of the cliffs.
Katcha - Katcha - Katcha - Huntington, who had a keen sense of hearing, suddenly changed his face and immediately issued a warning: "This is the sound made when wood is crushed and broken by a heavy object! Someone above should be pushing a rather huge piece of wood. of stones!”
"What?!" Wilmes wanted to transform back into a red dragon on the spot, see if he could climb up the cliff, and burn all the bastards pushing rocks to death with his flame breath.
But before she could take any actual action, Zuo Si raised his hand to stop her reckless behavior: "Relax, do you think I rashly approached this valley without any preparation?" Before he finished speaking!
Thousands of shadowy creatures emerged from the cliffs on both sides. They were like a black tide, directly drowning the ogres who were pushing the stones hard.
The latter didn't even have time to react before he was killed alive by the negative energy generated by the incorporeal touch, and then became a member of the Shadow Army.
Several hill giants who were holding rocks high and ready to throw them down were immediately frightened and hurriedly threw the rocks in their hands towards the shadow.
...As expected, they all passed through. Because they are incorporeal creatures and are made of pure energy, pure physical attacks without any magic such as stones cannot cause even a little bit of damage to them.
"The information we received was wrong! Where did so many shadow creatures come from?" A woman wearing a dark red robe asked sharply.
In order to prevent these shadows from approaching her, she released [Protection from Evil] and [Mage Armor] as quickly as possible.
The former can effectively protect against attacks by evil creatures, while the force field generated by the latter can resist the touch of incorporeal creatures.
"Don't ask me! How do I know! The top priority now is to retreat quickly! Even with a magic wand, we can't kill so many shadows." Another male mage also quickly put protective magic on himself.
However, these attacks were obviously not all as smart as these two mages. Several arcane casters did not even use protective magic, but directly aimed at the swarming shadows and began to release [Fireball], [Lightning], [Burning Hand], [Fire Sphere], and [Scorching Ray]. ] and other large-scale destructive plastic magic.
Suddenly, various flames and lightning on the cliffs on both sides lit up the black night sky. Although they did kill hundreds of low-level shadows in the beginning.
But soon, when the first round of actual spell combat was completed, more shadows rushed out from all directions, easily killing these guys who lacked magic protection.
Others try to use [Wall of Force] to build a line of defense that is insurmountable by incorporeal creatures. But soon I found that an astonishing number of shadows suddenly appeared behind me.
As a result, the [Power Wall Technique] just released became an obstacle preventing him from retreating and escaping. The most important thing is that the dispatch of the Shadow Legion directly disrupted the enemy's deployment.
As a result, a large number of boulders and stones piled on both sides of the cliff could not be pushed down at all. At the same time, they also bought enough time for Vanessa to calmly give everyone the [Flying Technique] effect.
In about a few minutes, Zuo Si and others flew up from the bottom of the valley. He first inspected the battlefield with the magic glasses he had just put on, and then directly ordered the strange objects: "Control those hill giants, don't let them die accidentally."
"As you wish." The strange object immediately responded through the spiritual connection, and at the same time took over Wilmes' body, quickly flew over and threw out the mind control.
moment! The four hill giants stood there with dumbfounded expressions. Although they were not very smart to begin with, they have obviously become stupider now.
Fortunately, the Shadow Legion also received new orders and did not continue to attack. Otherwise, although the giant's vitality is relatively tenacious, it cannot withstand the terrifying negative energy generated by the touch of dozens of shadows.
You don't need to ask to know that Zuo Si plans to make all these hill giants into creature cards after the battle is over.
With the addition of two spellcasters, Alena and Vanessa, those mages, warlocks and priests among the enemies who were still resisting desperately suffered disasters one after another.
...Especially the latter, who has rich experience in spell duels. He released the four-ring magic [Dimensional Anchor] almost immediately, blocking a guy who wanted to use teleportation magic to escape.
Immediately afterwards, he released [Heavy Mist Technique] to block the enemy caster's sight, providing the shadows with more opportunities for sneak attacks.
But this is not the end! As a LV15 Necromancer, Vanessa unceremoniously used the corpses of dead enemies to unleash the terrifying [Animated Army of the Dead].
All the corpses lying on the ground stood up in just a few seconds! Some of them were directly transformed into zombies, while others were left with only a bloody skeleton.
Just as some priests were holding up their holy symbols and trying to use [Rebuke Undead Creatures] to control these undead, Vanessa sneered and used the most lethal of the four-ring magic [Death Cloud Technique].
When the yellow-green poisonous cloud spread among the enemies, more than half of the low-level mages and priests died suddenly on the spot.
With their fragile vitality, they were unable to withstand the harm caused to the body by the poisonous cloud. After all, this poisonous cloud created through magic is much more terrifying than 99% of the chemical weapons on the earth.
Ordinary people would die immediately if they were contaminated with even a tiny bit of it, not to mention taking a breath. Similarly, the higher-level spellcasters are not much stronger.
Anyone affected by the [Death Cloud Technique] will immediately begin to suffer from severe coughing, vomiting blood, convulsions and other poisoning symptoms. It is impossible to chant spells, let alone enter a state of concentration in spell casting.
Alena was as simple and crude as ever, constantly releasing various fire magics, burning the remaining enemies to ashes one after another.
Even those who turned around and tried to escape were named by Huntington who was flying into the air. Relying on his condescending advantage, he maximized the power of [Strong Arm Bow].
Even some armors that look quite strong will be easily penetrated by enchanted arrows, and then be overwhelmed by shadows or low-level undead.
The so-called battle between spellcasters is actually a competition between who is more prepared and who has more resources, wealth and intelligence.
Obviously, Zuo Si now has an overwhelming advantage in this regard. And over time, this advantage will snowball and get bigger and bigger.
He himself didn't even take action from beginning to end, and the battle had already come to an end. After confirming that there were no threats around him, he landed on the ground and captured the four hill giants first.
Although this creature with relatively low intelligence is only slightly stronger than a half-giant, it is still a member of the giant group.
With a little upgrade, it can instantly turn into a powerful warrior and human shield. After all this was done, Zuo Si turned around and asked Qiwu: "How is it? Did you just read the enemy's memory and thinking?"
"Yes, Master. I read that. Most of these guys are members of the Zhentarim. They set up an ambush here under Manzon's orders and want to seize a chest from you. In order to achieve this goal, They cooperated with the Dragon Worship Cult, which has a secret base nearby, and set up ambushes around the valley."... Qiwu explained all the information he had obtained through the spiritual connection.
"Where is the stronghold of the Dragon Worship Cult? Is there anything dangerous hidden inside?" Zuo Si narrowed his eyes and asked.
Qiwu immediately replied: "The stronghold is located in a cave about two kilometers east of the valley. As for what is inside, I don't know for the time being. Because the Dragon Worship Sect only sends out some low-level members, and they know too much. not enough."
"Okay. It seems we have to go see for ourselves what's hidden inside." As he said that, Zuo Si took out the upgraded creature card - the large dire leopard, and directly paid mana to summon it.
moment! A leopard the size of an adult Siberian tiger appeared out of thin air. In particular, the two sharp fangs extending from the mouth look like a saber-toothed tiger. The claws have become wider and larger, and the eyes are shining with an extremely wild light.
There is no doubt that this is a typical ferocious animal. Affected by magical power, they are often larger and more ferocious than their own kind, which can be distinguished at a glance just from their appearance.
"Red?" Zuo Si tried to call out the name he gave the leopard. The latter immediately came closer and bowed his huge head twice to show his closeness.
After confirming that this big guy was still the same leopard, he immediately smiled happily and rubbed the beautiful fur on the big cat's body vigorously.
The happiness of FreeControl is so simple. With the approximate location of the Dragon Cult's secret stronghold, and the big cat that can track it in the wilderness and mountains, everyone briefly cleaned the battlefield and set off immediately.
After a while, the entrance to the cave was found at the foot of a mountain peak. Looking at the two guys guarding the door, Qiwu immediately asked: "Master, do you need me to control them?"
"Of course! Read the memory by the way and find out what dangers there are in the cave that need attention." Zuo Si answered directly in the affirmative.
He will not be merciful to members of evil organizations such as the Dragon Cult and the Zhentarim. It has to be said that the effect of psychic abilities is immediate when dealing with most creatures.
The two members of the Dragon Worship Cult guarding the door didn't even know who the enemy was, so they unknowingly turned into controlled puppets and walked straight over from a distance.
The strange object directly controlled Wilmes to open his mouth wide, extended four tentacles from his throat, pried open the heavenly spirit caps of the two unlucky guys in front of everyone, and dug out the brains inside and ate them clean.
Such a brutal scene made even Zuo Si, who was used to big scenes, feel a little numb, let alone others.
Fortunately, no one present was from the good camp, otherwise he would have gone berserk. Moreover, Zuo Si also noticed that after the brains of two low-level members of the Dragon Worship Cult were eaten, the spiritual energy that the strange object had just consumed seemed to be replenished.
Obviously, this is different from the normal mind flayers who only eat brains to maintain their own survival needs.
It can actually quickly replenish its consumed spiritual energy by eating the brains of intelligent creatures.
"Oh my God! What kind of monster is this?" The half-orc Rhett backed away in fright. ...In contrast, Vanessa, who had become a lich, was much calmer. She just asked in a slightly curious tone: "Your Excellency Soth, is Ms. Wilmes a mind flayer?"
"No, it's not. What you just saw was just a strange object that I made using the mind flayer's brain, and then awakened it through some special abilities to temporarily reside in Wilmes' body. In fact, Wilmes Si is an adult red dragon." Zuo Si did not hide anything and told the truth openly.
Because he holds Vanessa's life box in his hand, he doesn't worry about the other party betraying her or leaking this secret to others.
"What? Wait! You mean... you used a strange object created from the mind flayer's brain to control an adult red dragon?" Vanessa opened her mouth in disbelief.
He originally thought that after becoming a lich, nothing could cause him to have strong emotional fluctuations.
But now, everyone was shocked and didn't know what to say. Rhett even swallowed subconsciously, once again refreshing his understanding of Zuo Si's danger.
No wonder that every time he gets close to Wilmes, he always feels an inexplicable sense of nervousness and fear. It turned out that it was not an illusion or hallucination, but that he was actually facing a powerful dragon.
Thinking of this, the orc quickly pulled up his cloak to cover up the red dragon armor on his body. Wearing this armor in front of the arrogant, conceited, and cruel red dragon is definitely a naked provocation.
"Okay, there is no need to be so amazing. I have known Warmez for a long time. Now, let's focus our attention to this Bayong religion base. Yelinia, tell me how deep the cave inside is? "Zuo Si stared at his shadow and asked.
The next second ... The leader of the You Ying Legion jumped out of the dark and reported in a hateful tone: "At least three kilometers deep underground, there are at least ten huge spaces that can accommodate hundreds of people. About forty members of the worshipers were discovered, and there were several senior executives who were suspected of the San Talle. The other party set up a strong magic protection at the bottom of the cave. I couldn't go in to find out. "
.
