At this time, the connection between his emotions and body had been cut off and blocked by special magic items.
If he couldn't do this, how could he have been lurking as an apprentice for many years beside the necromancers of Ivanso?
After he behaves slightly abnormally, it doesn't take the next day for him to become one of the hanging ones.
As the young necromancer's memories progressed, pictures were directly displayed in front of everyone in the form of real projections.
No matter how well-informed the people present were, they were also shocked by the picture of the real phantom.
Here, whether they are intelligent races such as humans, elves, dwarves, and half-elves, or humanoid intelligent creatures such as hobgoblins, goblins, and jackals, they are no different from cattle and sheep, or even worse.
At least humans only need the flesh and blood of cattle and sheep, and that's it.
And there, death is a kind of relief.
There are cases where the body is covered with pustules, which are constantly festering and festering.
Flesh and blood were peeled off, revealing internal organs that were still beating.
There are systemic deformities and abnormal bone spurs.
Some have red eyes and are crazy.
About being in a cage, attacking each other and eating each other.
"They have no humanity. They are just a group of lunatics without humanity. How could they do such a thing to their own kind? This is the behavior of demons." Yeshandara's body was shaking uncontrollably. She didn't know why. Angry, still trying to suppress the feeling of nausea.
She had already mastered the information that Ivanso's Necromancer was conducting experiments on intelligent life forms long ago, but hearing was one thing, and seeing was another.
"I didn't expect that they have completely exceeded the bottom line of being a human being, so I'm sorry. No matter how high the price they offer, we can't just sit idly by and ignore this matter." Gavin said seriously.
Necromancers are not uncommon in Faerûn. Whether it is the red-robed mage in Ser or the mage kingdom Halrua, there is a special necromancer department that specializes in cultivating necromancers. Especially among the red-robed mages, death The spiritual mage system is even more like the dominance system, occupying an absolute dominant position.
The chief of the Necromancer Department, Sazas Tam, is not only a Necromancer, but also a Lich. He has more than thirty professional levels, and his personal strength ranks among the top ten madmen in Faerûn.
The reason why no one shouts about necromancy is that its super practicality is only one of them.
The most important thing is that there are default rules about the use of necromancy, and all necromancy users must not touch them easily.
That is, only corpses are allowed to be used for necromancy experiments, and live experiments are not allowed on living bodies, especially intelligent life. Once discovered, it will be the public enemy of all living things.
No force or individual may provide shelter to such an entity, otherwise they will be regarded as accomplices.
This was the reason why Gavin had heard from Ye Shantara and the others that Ivanso was conducting secret experiments on living subjects, but he refused to believe it easily.
Firstly, this may be a means for the Avengers to win over the Conqueror army and join their ranks.
Secondly, even the unscrupulous Sel red-robed mages would not dare to provoke such public outrage. Gavin subconsciously believed that a necromancer from a small place like Ivanso would not be so bold and mentally retarded. Spend.
But he underestimated it, and people are greedy.
For the sake of power, they would even sell their souls to the devil, ignore some laws and pursue forbidden power. What does it mean?
Especially those mages with unorthodox origins act more unscrupulously and are not bound by the default industry rules.
"It's done." Regina retracted her finger, and there was already a black mist-shrouded spiritual crystal ball in her other hand.
When they were shocked by the evil deeds of the Necromancer Ivanso, Regina was not idle. The real phantom projected was engraved on the spiritual crystal in her hand under her guidance, and a brand new phantom short film was released.
As a large number of phantoms were produced and released one after another in major cities, Regina's ability to make phantoms became more and more perfect.
The production of phantoms is no longer limited to the holographic projection system of Vizeme Manor.
You can directly extract the real projection of the memory of the person involved and make it into a phantom, just like now.
It's just that this production is flawed.
One is that you can only produce short films no longer than ten minutes.
Second, there is no way to edit, and the proposed memory phantom will be played as it is.
However, it is perfectly suitable to use it in this situation. This kind of evidence does not need to be edited, it only needs to be played in real time, which is enough to resonate with the audience.
"How many phantom play stones can you make every day?" Gavin asked.
"With this length of time, as long as there are sufficient raw materials, it is not a problem to make ten pieces a day."
"Fifty pieces, make me fifty pieces. Give me a specific number of spiritual crystals that will be consumed, and I will prepare them for you." Although Gavin launched a public opinion war for the first time, he also knew that he wanted to take the public opinion war to its extreme. , then it needs to bloom more, so that the entire Dragon Coast and all cities know the evil deeds of the Ivanso Necromancers.
"No problem." Regina nodded in agreement without hesitation. She also really wanted to know the role that her new ability could play in the war.
Gavin took the spiritual crystal ball and handed it to Yeshandara: "Inject spell bits into it to activate it. Each spell bit can play it for five minutes. It can be injected repeatedly. The task of broadcasting it in the city and letting the people of the entire Dragon Coast know about the evil deeds of the Necromancer Ivanso is left to you."
This is the second improvement point of the Phantom Play Stone. It further quantifies the energy required to play it. Although psionic points are the best energy source to drive it, it is not the best choice.
Because compared to psionic points, spell slots connected to the magic network are more common in Faerun, and using them for energy supply is the most common choice.
After Ye Shandara took the spiritual crystal ball, she couldn't help but try to inject a spell into it. The spiritual crystal ball immediately floated and began to rotate slowly. Black mist floated out from it. What she saw before was true. The phantom, unfolding directly around it, plays from the beginning.
She was also a smart person and immediately realized the value contained in it. She bowed to Gavin solemnly and thanked him: "Please allow me to express my gratitude to the Baron on behalf of the victims and their families. You gave them a chance for revenge." , this small crystal ball can withstand thousands of troops. No matter what, the necromancers of Ivanso have no chance to stand up this time. Leave this matter to us. Don’t worry, we know that in Where can I project it so that more people can see it and make more people angry towards Ivanso?"
In this matter, the Avengers and the Resistance Army have an advantage that the Conqueror Army does not have.
Not only are they more likely to win the trust of local people, they know better who resonates with them—people who have missing relatives or friends.
By the time you watch the short film, it doesn't matter whether their family members were sold away by slave traders or simply murdered.
Just thinking that their relatives might fall into the hands of the Ivanso Necromancer and suffer such inhuman treatment is enough to make them angry and join the ranks of the Avengers Resistance Army.
That's how many of their members came to be.
Simon, Texir, Pros, Irip, Prepur, Eastbound City, Bosku...
In just two days, the anger of many people in all the cities on the Trader Avenue, the main commercial road on the Dragon Coast, was ignited.
"Have you heard about Ivanso?"
"Not only I heard that this morning, I just looked there... vomit... I just saw the terrifying phantom over there... vomit... that scene... vomit... now that I think about it... vomit... it makes me... It’s not easy for me to vomit, and I still haven’t eaten anything... Vomiting... I can’t do it anymore... I can’t stand it anymore, I’ll vomit for a while first..."
"Is it really that exaggerated?"
"Exaggeration? This can no longer be explained by exaggeration... ugh... If you don't believe it, you can go to the square intersection and watch it yourself. There are people playing there all the time. But before you go, you have to be mentally prepared. There, you What you will receive is not just a visual impact, but also an olfactory attack. The smell... vomit... now that I think about it... vomit... vomit..."
"That kind of real phantom that can magically play out the taste?"
"It's not that the real phantom can imitate the taste, but that the square is full of people like him, people who are so stimulated by the horrific scene that they even vomited out their last night's meal. Needless to mention the taste, many people who could have originally People who can withstand the impact of that kind of horrific scene will be stimulated by the smell of the scene and vomit. Oh, what a sin... I have long heard that those necromancers sometimes use living people for experiments. Unexpectedly, Ivan Suo's Necromancer actually dares to do this..."
"You feel strange, but I don't, because I have already said that there will definitely be problems if Ivanso makes the necromancer the ruler. How can these guys who manipulate corpses at will care? The interests and feelings of living people, they are all a group of monsters manipulated, twisted, and dressed in human skins by evil forces. I don’t know how many of the missing people in our city were abducted by them and became their experimental subjects. .”
"Have you ever thought that Ivanso's use of living people for plague experiments was not discovered sooner or later, but it was discovered at this time? Is the timing too coincidental?"
"You mean to say that this is a conspiracy created by the army of conquerors outside the city of Ivanso to deliberately frame the Necromancers of Ivanso? To create an excuse for yourself to attack Ivanso?"
"It's not impossible. This ability to turn people's memories into real phantoms has never been heard of anyone on the Dragon Coast. I only heard that someone in the Battle Valley developed this ability. , and the destination of the conqueror’s army is there, there must be some connection between the two.”
"You said it yourself just now. This is a real phantom created by memory. Does it matter whether it has anything to do with the army of conquerors? Are you focusing on the wrong point? Evil forces like the Necromancer Ivanso, It would be a good thing if the army of conquerors were completely wiped out, because no one knows whether they have developed the highly contagious and lethal plague? Once a large-scale infection spreads, do you think we can Can you run away?"
"I heard that they have developed a plague virus that can be carried by undead soldiers. As long as it attacks a living creature, it will be infected. After death, it will be transformed into an undead with the plague virus. Soldier."
"What? There is this evil plague virus? If so, wouldn't the resurrection of the dead spell be useless? They only need to throw a few undead soldiers into the city, and it won't take long before the entire city will be occupied by countless undead soldiers. ?”
"Yes, this is the evil and terrifying thing about the group of Ivanso Necromancers. This is why they must be eradicated as soon as possible. You don't want to wake up one day and be surrounded by zombies carrying the plague. Bar?"
"This matter is to drive away tigers and devour wolves. It killed a local jackal but attracted a foreign tiger. What if the conqueror's army occupied Ivanso and stopped leaving? At that time, we will one day Waking up, surrounded by armies of conquerors, is the situation no better than zombies carrying a plague?”
"This matter is not a headache for us, but an issue that the city lords and guild leaders should consider. If the city is handed over to the army of conquerors, it cannot be worse than in the hands of these leaders."
"You probably haven't heard that the caravans of the Conqueror's Army have advertised their migration in various cities. Anyone who migrates voluntarily can follow them back to the Conqueror's Army and enjoy the same benefits as Tethyr immigrants. I have already seen their treatment, and their treatment is not low. There are already a large number of homeless wanderers who have chosen to follow them to the army of conquerors."
"I've heard about this a long time ago. If you ask me, those who went with them are all idiots. Who knows what kind of oppression they will encounter after joining the army of conquerors? Hey... they say they are immigrants, wait till then The valley might have been sold to rich people as slaves as soon as they turned around. Although Sambia has abolished slavery in name, many wealthy manors still retain a large number of indentured serfs."
"What you said is just out of your mind. You don't understand the current situation of the conquerors' army at all. Do you know how much wealth they scraped from those monster tribes when they penetrated the Giant Plains?
Don’t know?
They had just reached a deal with a horse dealer from the Glory City not long ago, using a thousand gigantic war horses and a thousand gigantic bison in exchange for a total of thirteen thousand war horses, including many excellent light and heavy war horses. This transaction alone cost more than two million gold coins.
There are more than 3,000 of these giant animals in the entire army, and they alone are worth more than 3 million.
Do you think the slave trade is more valuable than these special animals?
If you look at the speed at which their caravans are setting up industries in our city, you will know that there is no shortage of money at all.
Will they ruin their reputation for a small amount of money? A person who is so stupid will not be supported by so many people. "
"Trading people as livestock is a trade that the stupidest people do. The truly smart people love and care for people as their own people and let them help them create more value. I believe that the conqueror was just because Only with this quality can he attract so many people to follow him.”
"Listen to what you mean, are you ready to join the army of conquerors?"
"Why not? Anyway, I am alone and have already had enough of staying in this rotten city. I just want to take this opportunity to change to a new life. I heard that in the army of conquerors, they don't ask about their origins, only their ability. Whether they are generals or commanders, they are all newly promoted. With my ability, I will be able to become a commander wherever I go."
"Ha... your idea is really ridiculous. If you were really capable, you would have been the leader of this city long ago. Do you still need to join the army of conquerors?"
"It's different, it's completely different. In this kind of market battle, the competition is not only about who is ruthless, but also who has no moral bottom line. I am a person with a conscience, and I don't want to do things that have no bottom line. Otherwise, I would have It worked.”
"I believe you have more conscience than most people on the Dragon Coast, but you are more capable than them. Hehe... It's really hard to say. When you get mixed up with the Conqueror's Army, send someone to inform us. It’s not certain that we will go to you.”
"Just wait for my good news!"
As the phantom playback stones were secretly sent to major cities and began to be played in a loop in the streets and alleys, the shock and shock caused can be imagined. Many people vomited out their overnight meals on the spot.
Public opinion is heading in an extremely unfavorable direction for Ivanso.
During this process, conspiracy theories that were unfavorable to the Conqueror's Army were also born. It was believed that this was deliberately fabricated by the Conqueror's Army in order to create an opportunity for themselves to attack Ivanso.
But Gavin and the others came prepared. They had already anticipated this situation and had made adequate response plans.
The Avengers rebels scattered among the crowd are responsible for suppressing such remarks that are not conducive to the conqueror's army, and steering everything in a direction that is beneficial to the conqueror's army.
The wall fell down and everyone pushed it.
The Necromancers of Ivanso have no decent allies at all in the cities around the Dragon Coast. Many people don't have a good impression of them. There is no shortage of rumors about their evil deeds in the market.
In this case, naturally everything was turned out.
Whether true or false, all of them have become evidence of Ivanso's crime.
Not to mention that they had no relationship originally, even if they did, they would now be eager to cut off the relationship with them, especially those evil forces who had secret human trade with them, and their claws were somewhat numb.
If these transactions were uncovered and known to the public, especially the relatives of those who were trafficked, they would be liquidated before Ivanso was taken down.
Those who wipe their butts one by one, and those who clarify the relationship, clarify the relationship.
They are now the group of people who most hope that Ivanso will be killed. It is best to uproot them and kill all the senior officials.
