Wilmes defeats Baragas
"Flying Flame" becoming the new dragon king south of the west coast of Faerûn is undoubtedly a very eye-catching thing.
In just a few days, its popularity surpassed that of the Zhentil Fort army, which was invading the West Heartland region, and became the biggest concern of all parties.
After all, the 150-meter-long super-giant red dragon of purgatory appears for the first time on the continent of Faerûn. Countless people want to know the origin of Wilmes and why he grew to such an exaggerated and astonishing extent.
The purpose of collecting information from the forces of the good camp is to confirm the extent of the threat she poses; while those from the evil camp want to find ways to make all dragons bigger, stronger, and more destructive; they advocate neutrality. The Dru Yins hope to find out whether this red dragon has evolved normally or whether it has incorporated some unnatural and strange bloodline.
Suddenly, a large number of outsiders suddenly poured into Zhazesibo, the city closest to the Xingxuan Mountains.
Many mutually hostile forces also began to fight openly and secretly in the city. Almost every morning, several or even a dozen unrecognizable corpses could be carried out from the streets and alleys.
Under the rule of the Zha Zesibo Noble Council, there is obviously no good way to deal with this kind of battle involving camps, ideas, and doctrines.
You can only do some superficial work, and then let the other party treat your territory as a battlefield. Because compared to these, which do not threaten their own rule,
"Little things", they still have more deadly and severe situations to face. That is the menacing Shane VII from the south and his huge army.
When they first learned that Manon, the most important port city on the west coast, had been captured by Kalingshan, although the noble council of Zazespo also showed a certain degree of nervousness and vigilance, they always felt that there was another Myra. Tema City is holding on from the front, so the problem is not too big.
In particular, the ruler of Mailatma, Earl Weeks Targett, has experienced a boom in maritime trade in recent years.
Not only did he repay the large amount of foreign debt he had borrowed before, but he also accumulated a rich family fortune. The private army under his command can be said to be well-trained. They have been advancing steadily along the Yinsi River and captured a large area of rich land with water conservancy irrigation.
Whether economically or militarily, it can be called the most powerful aristocratic force in the Kingdom of Tethyr, bar none.
Even those dukes can only be regarded as younger brothers in front of him. Many people believe that Count Wicks Targett is the man most likely to end the civil war and unify the entire country as a strong man.
Coupled with the tall and solid walls of Mailatma, even if it is besieged by the army of Shane VII, it can still last for months or even years.
But who would have thought that when the army of Shane VII arrived, Wicks Target had no intention of resisting at all, and directly declared unconditional surrender and accepted the rule of the Shane Empire.
This move instantly shocked the jaws of the entire Tethyr Kingdom's nobles. The aristocratic council of Zha Zesibo was even more stunned and completely caught off guard.
What's even more terrible is that after announcing the surrender, Weeks Target made a direct and seamless transition, leading his original army to turn around and go north, and cooperated with Shane VII's fleet to form an encirclement of Zazesibo by land and sea. trend.
This series of actions can be described as flowing smoothly. To say that the two parties had not reached any secret agreement before, even a fool would not believe it.
But there is no point in discussing this now. The noble council must make a decision before the army comes to the city, that is, whether to resist to the end or choose to become part of the Shane Empire again.
At least legally, Shahn VII did have undisputed claims over the entire Kingdom of Tethyr.
And taking a step back, from a blood perspective, he is more qualified to inherit the throne than the Lyington family to which the queen currently belongs.
Therefore, voluntary surrender is not unacceptable or shameful, and ordinary people do not have too strong resistance to this.
The only problem now is that the noble council is not sure whether Shane VII will continue to recognize the land and privileges they possess after uniting Calimshan and Tethyr.
You must know that the founder of the Shane Empire, the old Akaba Shane, after stealing the throne of Tethyr through a series of insidious and despicable methods, he repeatedly suppressed the original aristocratic power in this land for decades. Purge until there are no more resisters.
The brutal methods used by Shahn VII to overthrow slavery in Carlingshan and eliminate the entire noble and slave-owning class made many people worry that he would most likely follow the example of his ancestors and do the same thing.
Of course, these people don't know that their worries are completely unnecessary. Because after receiving the message from Vera, this powerful undead emperor has decided to plow through the entire nobles of the Kingdom of Tethyr and completely eradicate them from their roots.
Anyway, it's not him who will rule this land in the future. Since Zuo Si said that there was a way to solve the management problem after the nobles disappeared, then he had nothing to hesitate and just started killing them.
Count Wicks Targett had secretly defected to Zuo Si a long time ago, and would definitely join the center and become an upstart in the empire in the future, so he didn't care about the life or death of other nobles in the Tessel region.
It can be said that the two hit it off. In addition, in the process of cleaning up the nobles, the huge wealth accumulated by the other party for hundreds or even thousands of years can be confiscated.
As long as it is announced that part of it will be used to reward the army, the soldiers' combat enthusiasm will immediately increase several levels, and the remaining part can be put into their own pockets.
Why not do such a good thing that you can achieve multiple things with one stone? In comparison, something as trivial as nobles banding together to organize a rebellion was nothing.
As for Yin Erminster and the Harper Alliance who like to do things in secret, Shane VII plans to let the law enforcement agencies composed of the God of Justice, the God of Suffering and the Church loyal to the God of Courage deal with them.
Since having in-depth exchanges with Zuo Si, the undead emperor has learned how to suppress those forces that do not obey his rule by subdividing camps.
Although the two organizations above can be classified as kind as a whole, they do not deal with each other.
The Lawful Good Church of God believes that the Harpers are a bunch of lunatics who do things without rules or care about the consequences. They are extremely irresponsible and can basically be equated with dangerous criminals.
The Chaotic Good Harpers feel that the Lawful Good paladins and priests are rigid, inflexible, and dogmatic. By the time they find evidence and go through the complicated legal procedures, the bad guys may have already disappeared.
Therefore, this wave of operations is to use the forces of order to fight against the forces of chaos. Nothing wrong! At present, the nobles of Zhazesibo have held several emergency meetings in a row, eager to discuss a result.
But unfortunately, the divisions caused by the long-term civil war have made them deeply resentful of each other. Some people support a certain proposal, and some people are bound to oppose it.
In the end there was little agreement other than bickering and name-calling. After listening to non-nutritive nonsense for several hours, Marilyn Harreston, feeling dizzy, finally collapsed and turned around to leave the parliamentary hall that once symbolized the highest power of the country.
She didn't stay too long on the street and went straight back to the hotel where she lived, planning to meet up with her companions first.
as
A member of the "Eight Elites of Tessel" adventure group, and also
An active promoter of the "Recover Tethyr" movement, Marilyn and her teammates expelled the greedy and corrupt Duke Nividan Yinlehun from the territory in the northeastern region in dR1351.
This was followed two years later in dR1353, which ended Ernest Gallowglass's rule in Insmon in almost the same way.
The members of the adventure group believe that as long as they put all the
After all the "unqualified" nobles are eliminated, the remaining nobles will reunite around the royal family, and the civil war in Tethyr will end and peace will be restored.
I have to say that this is a typical feudal aristocratic way of thinking. In the eyes of these guys, maintaining the stability of a country basically depends on the relationship between the big noble families and whether they can mediate conflicts between them.
As for the civilians... they don't know anything about politics, they obey the rule of the lords honestly, and they just need to have food to eat and not starve to death.
Marilyn, who calls herself a patriot, obviously didn't like the period when Tethyr was ruled by the Sharn Empire, and considered it a symbol of shame.
Therefore, she is a determined resister, hoping that the nobles can unite to resist the invasion of the Kalin Shirts.
It's a pity that although she also has aristocratic blood, she also plays a certain role in mediating the conflicts between the aristocrats.
But in the eyes of the old nobles who control the parliament, he is still just a person who does not even have a territory or a title.
A "lowly" adventurer has no qualifications to speak in the noble council. In this way, full of anger and grievance, Marilyn returned to the hotel where she lived.
As soon as he entered the door, Hared III, who had been waiting for a long time, suddenly stood up from his chair and asked in an expectant tone: "How is it? Did the discussion at the noble council come up with any results?" Marilyn grabbed the other person's hand. He raised his head and drank the wine glass in his hand, then sighed heavily and complained with a frown: "Oh - forget it, it's a mess. Because of the mutual hostility between the several dukes, as long as one of them agrees, The other side will definitely oppose it. They don’t care what this country is like. All they can think about is how to maintain or even expand their territory and gain more power. If the army of Shane VII really comes, I think those who advocate surrender will One faction will definitely take the initiative to open the city gate."
"Are you saying that Zazesi Bo can't hold on anymore?" Harid III's face suddenly became extremely ugly.
You must know that in order to inform the Noble Council, the capital of the Kingdom of Tethyr will have enough time to prepare for war.
He and several other teammates took huge risks to conduct reconnaissance on Kalingshan's army, and even used many magic scrolls and potions.
But who knew it would be like this in the end. More importantly, once Zhazesibo falls, it will greatly weaken the resistance of the nobles in Tethyr.
"I think it's quite embarrassing. You should know very well that there are only about 4,000 garrison troops in Zazesibo City. However, Shane VII's army has at least 30,000 troops, and Count Wicks Targett also has close to 7,000 troops. In addition, they also have many craftsmen who can build siege equipment, as well as an organized mage group. If the noble council issues an order in advance for emergency mobilization and expands the number of troops to 15,000 people, perhaps unity can help It's possible to hold on. But now, I'm not even sure whether this battle can be fought." When she said these words, Marilyn had naked and undisguised disappointment in her tone.
"Damn it! This is really terrible bad news." Harid III couldn't help but cursed in a low voice. His whole body seemed to have been drained of strength in an instant and he slumped back on the chair, his eyes dull. Looking at the ceiling.
Marilyn also smiled bitterly and echoed: "Yes, it is indeed a bad news that cannot be worse. The only hope now is to meet Louantha Hilendia and Silva of Count Vix Targett. Nus Moonfall can persuade the ruler of Mailatma to join our side, and then turn his direction to attack Shane VII. If he fails, the richest area of the kingdom near the west coast will It fell in an instant. And we can only go to the east inland to persuade the remaining nobles to unite to form a coalition for a final desperate fight. To be honest, I am beginning to regret a little now, and persuaded you to come back from Yin Erminster. ”
"Don't say that. I chose to come back because I wanted to do something for my hometown. Besides, haven't we done a good job in the past few years? But who would have thought that Xia Enqi has disappeared for so many years? The world was suddenly restored. Not only did he kill the powerful Blue Dragon King Ivicora Sagran, but he also unified Kalingshan in a short time and marched to Tethyr in the north. If only we could be given another ten years ...No! Maybe five years is enough! Then we can integrate the divided Tethyr to resist his invasion." There was obviously strong unwillingness and resentment in Harid III's tone.
After all, since returning to Tethyr in dR1351, he has been fighting for the goal of ending the civil war and unifying the country for more than ten years.
But just when he was about to succeed, he was suddenly interfered by external forces, and saw that all his efforts and hard work were in vain, which no one could accept.
How many decades can we have in our life? And he is still in his prime of mind, when he is most mature and energetic.
Of course Marilyn knew how her friend was feeling at this moment, and said in a slightly helpless tone: "Since the end of the Turbulent Years, the world is changing at a speed beyond our understanding. Whether it is the restoration of Shane VII in the south or the peace in the north, What's going on in Mu, Baldur's Gate, and West Heartland makes me feel like I'm in another world. Sometimes I feel like I'm getting too old to continue this wandering adventure. . By the way, does Yin Erminster have any suggestions for the current situation? I know that you and him have been exchanging letters." Hared III held his forehead and asked: "Are you sure you want to hear this? He and he The information given by the Harper Alliance is not objective. In other words, the enemy we have to face is not just Shane VII."
"What?!" Marilyn suddenly sat up from the chair, with a look of horror on her face. You must know that being a Xia En VII has already made her feel physically and mentally exhausted, and even gave rise to a pessimistic mood that no matter how hard she struggled, the final result would be failure.
But Hared III was not aware of this at all, and explained to himself: "According to the latest information given by Yin Erminster, the drastic changes that have occurred on the entire west coast of Faerun in recent years are actually related to one person. . This man is Soth, the chosen one by Talona, the goddess of poison and disease, and the goddess of magic. He controls the water from the Sword Coast to the Sword Sea, and is the master of Luskan and the Nelanthel Islands. Of course, I’m passing by. Time may also add Amn, and the vast land from Baldur's Gate to the Dragon Coast. Even the military action of Shane VII to unify Calimshan and Tethyr, the ultimate goal is to form a marriage alliance , allowing him to legally annex Tethyr and Kalingshan, and establish a huge west coast empire. Do you still remember the half-elf girl Aisha who was appointed as the crown prince? She will be the future queen of the Shan Empire, and she is also a user. A tool for marriage."
"Damn it! According to what you said, aren't we surrounded from all sides? Then what's the point of resisting?" Marilyn clenched her fists and asked.
"Don't ask me, I don't know. Anyway, Erminster said that we can't just let the other side succeed easily. We must find ways to destroy the birth of this huge empire. What's more, Tethyr is our hometown. If even we don't If we work hard to maintain its existence, who else would be willing to bleed for it? I hope Laoantha Hilendia and Sylvanus Moonfall can bring back good news." After saying this, Harid The third generation no longer paid attention to the other party, but poured himself another glass of strong wine, hoping to use alcohol to numb his nerves and vent his depression at the same time.
...At the same time, on the main road more than a hundred kilometers away from Zazespur, Count Wicks Targett was meeting
The other two members of the "Texel Eight" adventure group. Among them, the male elf carrying a bow and arrows knew without asking that he was Sylvanus Moonfall.
The other human woman is Marilyn's good friend-Lao Antha Hilendia. The two of them didn't talk nonsense. They expressed their intentions for this trip as soon as they met, and tried to awaken the power of this powerful nobleman with his righteousness.
"conscience" and
The "sense of justice" makes them turn their guns to face the outside world. It must be said that they are very courageous and courageous.
Other than being a little brainless, everything else is fine. Count Wicks Targett didn't even know how to describe his mood at the moment. He raised his head and looked into the other person's eyes and asked: "So you came all the way here just to persuade me to defect in battle with empty words? No." Any benefits or promises, let alone authorization from the Noble Council? Are you too stupid and arrogant, or do you think I am like a fool? Or are you very confident in your eloquence?" Instant!
Sylvanus and Lao Antha were both dumbfounded. They didn't expect that after saying something that almost moved them, they would have such a result.
Lao Antha couldn't help but ask: "Your Majesty Earl! Don't you have any sense of identity as a noble of the Kingdom of Tessel? Don't you realize that you should fight for glory?"
"Fighting for glory? Hahahaha! Can you stop making me laugh? As long as the nobles of Tethyr still have a little bit of glory, they will not fall into decades of turmoil and civil war. In fact, a true sense of honor All the nobles and clans of the country had already died when the old Akaba Shane took control of this country. The nobles today, without exception, are the descendants of those who prostrated themselves on the ground and swore allegiance to the Shane Empire. So like I also take the initiative to dedicate my loyalty to fight for His Majesty Shane VII. This is the only way to end the civil strife." Earl Wicks Target ruthlessly refuted the two visitors in front of him from the source, and The other party was so choked that he couldn't speak for a long time.
After all, the history of the Sharn Empire is much longer than that of the independent Kingdom of Tethyr. Among them, Xia En VII and his descendants have the blood of the oldest Tethyr royal family, the Yinsar family, and their legitimacy is absolutely unquestionable.
After a long silence, the elf Sylvanus took a deep breath and asked, "So you have made up your mind to be loyal to Shane VII?" Count Wix Target nodded without hesitation. He bowed his head: "Yes! No matter who you represent or what your intentions are, I can tell you that no one can stop the army of His Majesty Xia En VII. Now get out and disappear from my eyes." Right here. The moment the words came out of his mouth, the elf Sylvanus suddenly pulled out a sharp dagger from his sleeve without any warning and rushed straight towards the army commander in front of him.
From that point on, he planned to directly assassinate Weeks Targett in order to trigger civil strife in this army.
But just when this guy thought he was about to succeed, he suddenly saw a black shadow appear out of thin air. The next second... the elf lost consciousness instantly, and his body fell directly to the ground on its back. Then it quickly rotted and disintegrated, and finally turned into a set of gloomy white bones.
"Sylvanus!" Lao Antha shouted her companion's name in horror. But just half a second later, she also lost consciousness in an instant. Her body fell to the ground and rapidly rotted and decomposed, leaving only a pile of white bones.
Just by looking at the almost bizarre way of death, we can tell that the souls of these two guys were forcibly captured and taken away.
And the black figure that appeared out of thin air was none other than Xia En VII himself, who was a demi-lich. After killing
After the two members of the "Eight Elites of Tessel" adventure group, he gently hooked his fingers, and a pin suddenly flew out from the elf's skeleton.
After a brief inspection, Shane VII sneered and mocked: "It is indeed an assassin from the Harper Alliance. It seems that Soth is right. Yin Erminster and his followers only have this little bit of shame left. It’s up to you.”
"The Harper's Assassin?!" Weeks Target suddenly zoomed in. Apparently he had heard about the achievements of these lawless guys.
"Well! From now on, you have to be careful. Not only must you take protective measures, but you must also never meet anyone alone." Xia En VII reminded casually.
"But...but why did they want to assassinate me? I didn't do anything harmful to God!" Vix Target was obviously frightened and asked incoherently.
Shane VII answered without thinking: "Because not long ago, the master you were loyal to, Soth, had completely broken up with Yin Erminster, the founder of the Harper Alliance. From now on, they will fight each other endlessly as enemies. "
"I don't understand! Aren't they all chosen by the Goddess of Magic? Why are they breaking up?" Wicks Targett was obviously confused and couldn't understand the reasons and logic at all.
"Who told you that believers and chosen people of the same god will definitely live in harmony? There are so many conflicts and hatreds between each other for various reasons. Isos' tendency towards lawful evil character, and the chaotic good camp's Yin Erminster's tit-for-tat confrontation is completely normal. I wonder how he endured it for so long before falling out now. But don't worry too much, the Harper is not as scary as you think. I will make a readable one for you later. A magical equipment that can retrieve and detect other people's thoughts. When the time comes to wear it on your body, you will be able to identify who is the assassin sent by the Harper." When saying these words, Shane VII closed his eyes and felt a sense of enjoyment. expression.
You don't need to ask to know that he is devouring and digesting the two souls he just captured. There is no doubt that this unsuccessful assassination operation did not originate from the instructions of the Harpers' senior leaders, but the unauthorized action of the elf Sylvanus.
For Harpers, as long as they think the time has come or that it is the right thing to do, they can choose to take action.
It is this unpredictability that makes people unable to guard against it, and has created the terrifying and glorious achievements of the Harper Assassin.
But this time, what they will face is the methods of the Undead Emperor Xia En VII. No matter how many come, they will eventually die.
In addition, this unsuccessful assassination also gave Count Wicks Targett a perfect excuse for war.
Anyway, no matter what the other party's true identity is, he directly slapped the head of the Zhazesibo Noble Council, and he who was still a little lacking in confidence instantly became righteous.
What's even more terrible is that originally he was still a guest
The "Texel Eight" adventure team immediately turned into street rats that everyone yelled at. Especially after the noble council learned of the situation, they immediately ordered the arrest of the remaining members of the adventure group throughout the city, making it clear that they wanted to use the latter's head to appease the anger of Earl Wix Target. .
In desperation, Hared III, Marilyn and others could only flee the city overnight.
Just when they were about to head inland to continue calling on the nobles to resist, they suddenly discovered that under the midnight moonlight, they could vaguely see a person standing in the middle of the road not far away.
Before Marilyn could ask, the mysterious man hidden in a cloak slowly raised his head.
moment! Everyone present saw the terrifying light flashing in those eyes.
"Hello, members of Tessel's Eight Heroes adventure team. Maybe you don't know me, but that doesn't matter, you are going to die soon anyway." After saying that, the mysterious man took off his hood, revealing a pair of black hair and black eyes. The young face was none other than Zuo Si himself, who had come all the way from Amn to eradicate the evil.
Because he clearly remembered that without his own intervention, it was the members of this adventurous team who finally succeeded in pulling the Kingdom of Tethyr out of the civil war through a series of means.
Among them, Hared III seems to have married the current queen and became the supreme ruler, while Marilyn became the wife of Duke Dorian Harreston and was also a diplomatic ambassador with arbitrary decision-making power.
Since Yin Erminster planned to use the power of this group of people to fight against him, Zuo Si would also kill them all without mercy.
"Are you here to kill us?" Marilyn quickly pulled out her sword and raised her shield, assuming a defensive posture.
Zuo Si nodded slightly: "That's right. You have hindered Shane VII's plan to conquer Tethyr, and you have also hindered my plan to establish a west coast empire, so I have to ask you to die here to avoid causing too many unnecessary consequences. civilian casualties."
"Damn it! He's Soth!" Harid III clearly recognized the young man standing in front of him and reminded his teammates loudly.
"What?!" Marilyn was stunned for a moment. Just when she was about to say something, a green light shot out from Zuo Si's fingertips and accurately hit the shoulder that was not covered by the shield.
In an instant, this woman with a high level of warrior turned into a pile of green powder and dust.
Even people who don't know much about arcane magic can easily recognize that this is a six-ring dissociation technique.
Once it fails to resist, it will disappear in a matter of minutes, and not even the physical body will be left.
"Asshole! He actually killed Marilyn!" A muscular man with short black hair immediately became extremely furious, his eyes became bloodshot, and he pulled out his weapon and charged.
Since the distance between the two sides was only a dozen meters, he came closer in the blink of an eye, using the explosive power brought by his anger to cut Zuo Si in half directly from the middle.
In the opinion of several other people, if a mage is approached by a high-level warrior and there is no protective magic, there is a high probability that he can be killed instantly.
But in less than a second, the cruel reality shattered all their delusions. I saw Zuo Si raising his left hand wearing an iron glove at an incredible speed and steadily catching the opponent's powerful slash without even moving his upper body.
"You think you can rush over and kill me to avenge your dead teammates? You are naive! In fact, my attainments in swordsmanship are much better than all of you put together." As these words blurted out, a dazzling sound came out. A cold light suddenly flashed in the air.
Poof! The man who took the initiative to attack did not see anything clearly. He found in disbelief that his body had been cut off at the waist, and the part below the buttocks fell to the ground with a bang. A large amount of blood and intestines spurted out along the wound, and the body was tightly cut. As severe pain surged into his brain, he couldn't help but howl in pain.
"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"
"Considering that I still have a lot of things to do and am in a hurry, I will let you die happily today. Remember to be grateful. After all, I have not tortured anyone, nor have I imprisoned your souls." He said. Then, Zuo Si waved his hand and smashed the guy's head with one punch, ending the other person's painful struggle.
When Harid III saw this extremely bloody scene, his already somewhat shaken psychological defense collapsed instantly, and he immediately started to turn around and run wildly. At the same time, he loudly reminded the remaining teammates: "Run! Run! We have no chance of fighting head-on." No chance of winning!" At his reminder, the other team members came to their senses and headed into the surrounding woods.
Unfortunately, before they could run very far, the eight heroes of Tethyr were called out one by one by incredibly powerful attack spells, and they soon turned into one after another, either mutilated or burned to black. of broken corpses.
Hared III could even hear the screams from his companions behind him, but he did not dare to look back or stop at all, and just kept running.
He simply couldn't believe that such a terrifying enemy would personally hunt down the members of the adventure team.
The overwhelming magical power and close combat skills displayed by Zuo Si made this man who had been a scribe of Yin Erminster for a long time feel real despair for the first time.
Sad! fear! trembling! Hared III now regrets being persuaded by Marilyn to return to Tethyr.
Because if he didn't come back, he wouldn't have encountered the huge crisis now, and his companions in the adventure team wouldn't have died.
I don't know how long I ran... maybe a few minutes, maybe ten minutes or even half an hour.
In short, when Harid III felt that his lungs were about to explode, his muscles were sore and swollen beyond words, and he had no strength left in his body, he stumbled and fell to the grass, gasping for air. .
Just when he thought he had successfully escaped, he suddenly saw a familiar face falling from the sky, commenting with a smile: "Seven kilometers, you ran a full distance of seven kilometers in half an hour. I have to say , as a spellcaster with poor physical strength, your strong will to survive is admirable. But the question is, since you are so afraid of death, why did you return to the Kingdom of Tethyr? After all, the reason why adventure is called It is an adventure because it is very dangerous. No adventurer knows whether he will die in an accident in the next second. And as a scribe around Yin Erminster, you should have enough knowledge and insight to know how to participate What does it mean to be involved in politics? There is no right or wrong in politics, only positions and winning and losing. The losing party often loses everything including life."
"You are right. Political struggles are always cruel and bloody. But if it were you, after more than ten years of hard work, you were just a little bit able to achieve your ambitions and wishes. You would easily Are you giving up?" Hared III struggled to do it and asked with excitement on his face.
"I will! Because I don't have any confidence or cards, I take the initiative to provoke an enemy who is many times more powerful than myself. This is what lunatics and lunatics would do. I am a rational and calm person, so I will not Make the same mistake as you. Just the opposite! I will pretend to surrender and surrender, then slowly accumulate strength, collect the opponent's weaknesses, and then find opportunities to launch a surprise attack to seize everything. But you are a typical example of being blinded by power and ambition. eyes, and finally made a wrong decision. Tell me, what kind of guarantee did Yin Erminster give you, so that you think you can break your arm with me? Will he show up when your life is in danger?" , Zuo Si pursed his lips and looked around, finding no trace of magic fluctuations at all.
Hared III responded with a sad smile: "No, Erminster did not make any promises. He just said that the Harper Alliance will provide some help when necessary. But now it seems that he wrongly predicted your behavior pattern, I think you won't attack us directly." Zuo Si smiled and spread his hands: "Haha, look, this is the biggest difference between him and me. He always maintains his own identity, feels that he should not bully, and tries to use words and thoughts to influence Others can achieve their own goals. But I don't mind killing the enemy with my own hands at all, no matter what their reasons are and how weak they are. After all, it's not my fault that they are too powerful! Why should I take the initiative to restrict myself? Are you right? Look at Yin Erminster's self-restriction for so many years, and what kind of results he finally got? Countless young red robe mages and newcomers to the Zhentarim want to defeat or even kill him in order to gain a louder reputation. Reputation. But have you ever seen a newcomer from the Harper Alliance dare to challenge Sazastan or Manson?"
"So you think Yin Erminster is a big fool?" Perhaps knowing that he was dead, Hared III simply started to let himself go, and even no longer had any respect for the mentors and employers he once served.
"You are not a fool, but you are definitely pedantic. After all, power needs to be demonstrated at the right time, so that everyone can clearly see how powerful you are, and how cold and cruel you are when dealing with your enemies. . You must know that mortals are often forgetful. If you don't remind them often, they will think you are weak and can be bullied, and start to test you constantly. At this time, you need to kill a few chickens to let the monkeys know the consequences of provoking you. Unfortunately, you are now a chicken that will be slaughtered to warn other monkeys." After saying that, Zuo Si reached out and grabbed the other person's hair and lifted him up.
The sudden pain made Hared III groan, but he quickly held back and continued to ask: "If Yin Erminster appeared now, would you still kill me?" Zuo Si replied straightforwardly: "Yes! And I will execute you in a more cruel and bloody way! Because if I want to kill a person, he will not be able to stop it with his strength. Secondly, if he comes forward and I let you go, won’t it make the monkeys watching think that I Are you afraid of Yin Erminster? So you will die no matter what. But as a token of appreciation for your strong desire to survive, I can now let you choose a less painful way to die. "
"I choose beheading. I heard that this method of death only requires suffering for no more than one minute at most." Hared III slowly closed his eyes and waited for death to come.
But at this last moment of life, a portal suddenly opened out of thin air, and the great sage following Shadow Valley finally appeared, and said in a very tired tone: "Thos, let's make a deal."
"Hahaha! I knew you wouldn't give up on your former scribe." Zuo Si put down the sword in his hand and laughed wildly.
There is no doubt that by talking so much nonsense and delaying for so long, he was giving the other party enough time to think.
You must know that Yin Erminges's copyman is not a normal job, but is closer to the identity of the housekeeper, friends, apprentices, and half family.
With the old man who read the old man in front of him, how could he watch Harride III being killed.
"So you have been waiting for me?" Yin Ermingrst's eyes flashed with vigilance.
