The Swordsman of Faerûn

Creeping City is an invincible war fortress, where demons, devils, and other elite mercenary barracks are gathered, and the siege towers are covered with powerful and effective war magic.

There is also a school of war here, where some outstanding demon strategists teach their knowledge to those who want to actively participate in bloody battles, and there are also a large number of factories producing the most basic military equipment.

It can be said that Creeping City is an ultimate war fortress prepared for the final bloody battle, but for hundreds of millions of years, this fortress has never really ended up personally joining the bloody battle.

At the same time, Creeping City is also a comprehensive metropolis that gathers countless alien creatures. On the wide streets where large planes can take off and land, all kinds of strange and intelligent races come and go, most of which are monsters. However, it is not uncommon to see individuals of mainstream intelligent races in the main material plane, such as humans and elves, but most of them travel together with other monsters and alien races.

A purely human combination like William and Dove isn't all that eye-catching.The two of them walked quickly through the huge city alleyway, and soon mixed into countless crowds.

There are many strange races walking on the street, which means that there are many problems. All kinds of fights, bullying and even killing and killing often happen, not to mention petty theft.

Although William and William are not very eye-catching, they will inevitably be secretly watched by some caring people. At least a dozen groups of thieves want to approach them and try to steal more valuable items from William or Dove. It is difficult to escape William's sensory induction.

Several insidious thieves tried to hurt them with poison or evil skills, but William used heavy methods to shock the heart or brain spine, and they would definitely die.There are also thieves who seem to be less vicious, or who have compassion for William and the two humans, but William seems to let them go inadvertently.

Among them was a little human girl who stole it as a thief, and William even let the other party steal it on purpose. Of course, the things that were stolen must not be so important to William, but it was a big deal for the thief. harvest.

William followed the induction in the dark, and Dove came to a huge building.

The Beheader and the Iron Head, a chaotic and depraved large tavern, the guests who come here include huge giants, monsters, and ghosts who are ten feet tall and weigh a thousand pounds, and small elves or evil gnomes who are less than two feet tall. The beverages provided here include not only the flavored wine that is common in the main material plane, but also a series of comparisons such as magma wine, blood wine, mud wine, rotten wine (the drink of saproling monsters), and venom wine from other planes. Drinks for exotic tastes.

When William and Dove walked into the door of the tavern where they could get into an elephant, many malicious eyes peeped over. When those eyes saw clearly that the visitors were two human beings, their eyes suddenly changed. Greedy and full of malice.

William and the two went straight to the counter, but saw that the bartender was a majestic Minotaur. Dove patted the obsidian counter and said loudly: "Hi! Bartender, here are two glasses of fine wine that you specially drink here, by the way I want to inquire about something."

The Minotaur glared at Dove and William, then grabbed a dirty wooden barrel from under the counter and put it on the counter, buzzing: "The cactus spirits from Oric (Grey Eagle World), Sheng Hui two A piece of soul coin. If you want to inquire about the news, you have to pay extra."

When she heard the quotation from the Minotaur, Dove's face suddenly became extremely ugly, because the damn bartender was deliberately blackmailing her.

Soul coins are one of the more common currencies in the lower planes, and they are general equivalents and goods made from the souls of living beings.The value of soul coins does not have a fixed number, but generally can be divided into five levels: residue level, fragment level, broken level, complete level, and pure level.

Theoretically speaking, a human soul can extract two broken-level or one complete-level soul coins, depending on the strength of the soul, but a wild dog's soul can only extract a handful of residual-level soul coins. soul coins.

For some monsters, high-grade soul coins have the function of enhancing strength, so in a sense, soul coins are relatively precious currency. Generally, there are very few creatures in the lower planes that use soul coins to buy things.

Two soul coins are actually equivalent to the soul value of two human beings, that is to say, the bartender directly regards William and Dove as counter-price for the barrel of wine. He bullied strangers from outside and wanted to slaughter William and William as fat sheep.

As a character who has lived for hundreds of years, although Dove doesn't have many opportunities to venture outside, she has heard a lot about her sisters' adventures outside, so Dove immediately understood The routine of the Minotaur in front of him.

She was furious immediately, and scolded: "You demon! Don't you want to trick us two?! You actually want to trick us into slavery with a bucket of yellow horse urine from unknown origin! Go dream! We don't want it!"

The Minotaur bartender roared cruelly, and said with a smirk: "Human bastard from the main material plane, what do you think this place is? All drinks sold at this counter are not allowed to be returned or exchanged! Want to leave? Pay for the drinks first!"

Dove said angrily: "Don't even think about it! We didn't drink your wine at all! Why should we pay for the wine?!"

The Minotaur laughed and said: "This is my territory of Pekinos! Little ones! Educate these two little lambs from the main material world, let them understand what this place is! This is where the beheaded and Iron head! Roar!"

All kinds of monsters who were drinking or watching the excitement immediately stood up when they heard the sound. They clamored and roared similarly to the Minotaur's cry, and then surrounded them with grinning faces.

Dove glared viciously at the monsters who surrounded her. Facing these evil guys, she would definitely fight to the death. Of course, the broken sword in her hand made the monsters involuntarily let out malicious laughter.

William patted Dove on the shoulder, signaling her to be calm, and then he said to the Minotaur in a gentle tone: "Are you sure you must do this? After all, violence is a very bad thing. In the big guy Before you get out of control, I advise you to think about it, is it really necessary to force us like this?"

The Minotaur looked at William in surprise, his eyes were full of malice and mockery, and he laughed loudly: "Look at this poor little lamb, he actually said 'violence is a very bad thing (with a slender butthole clamped To describe with the sound of coloratura)', oh, oh, oh, oh, boy, let Mr. Pekinos tell you a truth. Violence is the most common rule here with the beheader and the iron head! Don't worry! Wait for a while When you cry, Master Pikinos will love you very much!"

William turned his head and shrugged in one direction, pretending to be helpless and said: "No way! I persuaded it and gave it a chance, but it didn't catch it by itself!"

Then when everyone was a little confused, William suddenly kicked the Minotaur and flew it upside down. The monster's huge body crashed into a large pile of wine barrels, but it didn't know what to do. How much precious liquor was broken.

Seeing William's move, those monsters who surrounded him roared and rushed forward.

William drew out the autumn water knife, and casually chopped down a monster that was about to attack Dove, and then he turned into a moving death machine, knocking down all the monsters in sight one by one.

William didn't intend to hold back at all, and any monster that tried to attack him or Dove was killed by one blow.And Dove was beating a humanoid monster one size bigger than her with a broken sword. Although she always had the upper hand, it was difficult to cause fatal damage to that enemy.

William's killing speed was really too fast. When the angry Minotaur crawled out of the messy liquor and was about to settle accounts with him, he found that all his men except one idiot were being tortured by female-sex-humans. After being beaten, the rest of them were already lying in a pool of blood.

It didn't even know what terrible thing happened, which caused the living men just now to become corpses all over the ground.

However, the instinctive movements of the Minotaur's body dominated by emotions are always faster than its brain's thinking speed. When it finally realized that something was wrong, it had already rushed in front of William.

William didn't kill it directly, but cut off the anti-joint hoof of the Minotaur with a knife, and let it fall to the ground with a sharp and tragic wail.

William walked up to the head of the Minotaur, and in order to attract the attention of the monster who only cared about howling in pain, he cut off several fragments of its body, and finally made the monster fully aware of its situation.

William squatted in front of the head of the Minotaur, and said in a loud voice: "I have warned you in advance, let you think about it carefully, it seems that you haven't figured it out! Now please think again, your Excellency, what are we going to do?" Do I owe you money for the drink?"

The Minotaur has been tortured to the point of losing its ability to think. Disgusting foam mixed with blood is spouting from its mouth and nose, which is the state it appears after being corroded by various poisonous liquors.

At this time, a crisp voice sounded from the side, saying: "Of course, Your Excellency William doesn't owe this tavern money for drinks. On the contrary, they owe you a sum of money for mental damage."

William looked up at the speaker, but it was a female spirit macaque with silver vellus hair scattered all over her body, also known as Kong Randa.The female Kong Randa has a more graceful figure and a holy appearance like a Bodhisattva than a human female. Even with Dove's extremely good appearance, she is dwarfed by this Airui Celestial Clan.

William had met another spirit macaque before, and that Ariel macaque named Hui Er gave him a good meal, but now seeing another macaque, Ariel, William couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

What is even more curious is how a creature of the good camp like Kong Randa would appear in the chaotic tavern in Creeping City, and it seems that this guy is still an important figure in this tavern.

Dove finally defeated her opponent, panting, she was a little nervous when she saw the sudden appearance of the female macaque Ai Rui, she leaned up to William and whispered: "William, be careful! Guys can read minds, and they're always doing evil in the name of good."

The female spirit Ai Rui came to the two of them with a smile, and said, "Ms. Dove with silver hair, it is very immoral to speak ill of people behind their backs."

Dove said a little annoyed, "I didn't say it behind my back, I said it face to face!"

Airi, the female spirit, smiled, and said to William: "As the owner of this tavern, I apologize for the disrespect my subordinates have shown towards His Excellency William and his friends. If you don't dislike him, I am willing to make up for both of you. to make up for the fright that Your Excellency and others have suffered."

Dove said angrily, "I don't need any compensation!"

William said, "I want to know the whereabouts of a person and a big devil."

The female spirit macaque frowned, and asked, "Who's whereabouts do you want to know, Your Excellency William?"

William said: "Negal, the great devil, he took my friend away."

The corner of the female spirit's mouth twitched, and she sighed, "Your Excellency William is one step late. The great devil Negal just left here. He did bring a human prisoner with him, but it seems that the human is not very normal. Well, maybe you can In the Crimson Zone on the other side of the city, we found out about Nergal's next whereabouts."

William nodded and said, "Thank you very much!"

However, the female spirit Kiai Ai Rui waved to her back again, and a female wilderness fairy came forward holding a sheathed long sword and handed the sword to her.

The female spirit maki drew out the sword, but saw that the sword body was like a blue water vein, emitting a faint light. She flicked the sword body with her fingers, and the long sword immediately made a crisp sound of "clank".

The female spirit macaque Airui said: "This used to be a high-level thunder sword [Blue Fury] (thunder +4), with extraordinary power. But now due to changes in the magic net, this thunder sword The power of the long sword can no longer be used, but as far as its material is concerned, it is still an excellent sword.

Ms. Dove, this [Azure Wrath] is yours now.Hope she can make up for the injustice you have been treated here. "

Dove didn't want to accept it at first, but this [Azure Wrath] was so delicious, she finally accepted her coyly, after all, adventures with William, there will always be times of fighting, Dove doesn't want to Continue to serve as a spectator and mascot.

William got the information he wanted, and Dove also gained something, but neither of them wanted to stay here to deal with the female spirit Ki Ai Rui, so the two almost left at the same time, which made Dove feel a little bit Little chuckle.

The female spirit macaque Airi said to William who was about to leave: "Your Excellency William, you want to track down that great devil Negal, but I'm afraid the process will not be smooth. Well, you will always be one step behind the other party, which is very strange." An irreversible fate."

William sneered, and said, "I don't care about the fate of Lao Shizi. But thank you for reminding me."

When William was about to walk out of the tavern, Airui, the female spirit, suddenly asked, "Do you know another Kong Randa?"

William's heart trembled, but he said without turning his head: "I've never heard of such things as Kong Randa." Then he disappeared at the door of the tavern, leaving only the female spirit Ai Rui with a mysterious smile on her face. .

"Got you!"
