The knight in the abyss

Chapter 211 Tools
"You have already mentioned one of the reasons why the Temple of Sorrow has a transcendent status." Karaline smiled, "There, the Necromancers known as the Lord of Sorrow transform their souls into low-level original demons, cowardly Demons or monstrosities - depending on whether the bloody army needs food, slaves, or food for slaves. And those most greedy, evil, and ambitious souls have the opportunity to receive special attention and be directly given to higher forms .”

"It sounds like a big army camp." The dwarf kicked the stones on the side of the road as he walked, "The abyss is so big, isn't there a demon born everywhere? How does it have a detached status?"

"Catching wild demons is a time-consuming and labor-intensive job, but the temple of mourning can produce tanar'ri much faster than the abyss itself, and it can be sent to the bloody legion that needs them in an organized manner." Scholar Patiently explained, "Most Tanar'ri lords maintain superficial respect for the Temple of Sorrow, because once the skin is torn apart, it means becoming the target of public criticism in the abyss, and all its enemies will temporarily put aside their disputes And unite, and this is almost impossible under normal circumstances, so even the devil prince Demogorgon will not easily choose to openly confront the Temple of Sorrow."

"Why is the political struggle of demons so complicated?" Brutal lamented, "It can't be like us dwarves. Kings, generals, ordinary soldiers, and craftsmen all work hard to do their own jobs. How easy and pleasant it would be to live with an orc's head and a giant's knee instead of the target."

"I don't think you like staying by the forge all the time." Lancelot joked.

"It's normal for young people to be a little restless." Brutal's defense seemed unconvincing because of the bushy beard on his chin. "By the way, Lancelot, have we been walking for a day? Your fortune teller The method doesn't seem to work well."

"I... didn't say anything, it must work..." Lancelot estimated the time, "Should we plan to camp?"

"Here?" Brutal looked at the surrounding environment suspiciously. The front and back of them were all sloping mountain roads less than five feet wide. void.

Lancelot smiled, and drew out his giant sword, Glacier. He had already practiced Qingyun Sword Art to the third level, reaching the peak of the Qi refining period.As a wood-based technique, it may be relatively ineffective against metal weapons and armor, but if it is used against rocks and soil...

A faint blue light lit up, and under Lancelot's full force, the sword tip extended more than ten feet, looking like a giant spear in a heavy infantry phalanx.

"Stand back a little bit." Lancelot said to the people behind him, and then thrust the giant sword into the rock wall, as easily as sticking a fork into cheese.

Seeing that the effect was so good, the human knight immediately began to work with enthusiasm.He's chipping away at the rock face, and it looks like he's brandishing a table knife trying to carve a hole in a cake.

"If I remember correctly, he seems to be able to emit that green light with any weapon, right?" Brutal asked Karaline.

"I think that color is closer to blue light." Scholars have high requirements for the accuracy of words, "but you are right, indeed any weapon will do."

"When he helped me cut the shackles, the sharp beam of light came out directly from the palm of his hand." Aramir added, "And Korra and Elotishia, you have similar experiences, right? ?”

"Brother is really amazing." Little Isa watched Lancelow cut off large chunks of rock walls in reverence, his figure was like a god.

"Is this really the power in the blood?" Elotesia was also full of awe. Although it was not the first time she had seen Lancelot's power, she was still awed by the destructive power he displayed.

"My boss isn't a descendant of a genie?" said the skull, who was hanging on the horn of Brutal's helmet, which was his newest sofa seat.The dwarf's previous helmet was lost in the kobold's lair underground in the instant fortress. After returning to Shuangqiao Town, he immediately went to make a new one - the head of the berserker demon on it was more lifelike than before.

"Brother is definitely not a Genasi, we dwarves often deal with guys with amber-like skin." Brutal shook his head, "What I want to say is, since any weapon can emit that green light... "

"Blue light."

"Okay, Blu-ray, if you insist." The dwarf gave the scholar a hard look, and then took out a shovel from his backpack, "Then is it more efficient to take this? You see He looked like he was trying to pick his teeth with a spear..."

There was an awkward silence.

"Look how focused he is, let's not bother him anymore, haha." The skull laughed dryly, "Why don't you talk to him later?"

"Forget it, I think he is having a good time by himself."

In a short while, Lancelot carved out a platform more than 30 feet wide on the nearly vertical rock wall, which is enough for everyone to light a fire and cook comfortably inside.

"You are lucky that there is no landslide." Brutal turned around like an overseer, and with the professional eyes of a dwarf, he confirmed that the cave would not become his tomb in a few hours.

Everyone already had a lot of experience in camping in the wild. They skillfully set up tents and lit bonfires. Aramiel used divine magic to create a large bucket of clear water, Karaline used scrolls to cast warning spells, and Brutal took out A small hammer began to maintain everyone's weapons and equipment, and said in his mouth:
"It may be strange to say that I can finally rest, but I really think this place is much safer than the hotel last night. Cora, what shall we have for dinner tonight?"

"I bought some abyss chicken from the kitchen of Tears of Razaka. How about we eat roast chicken tonight? Compare it with the one you ate at the hotel last night to see which one is better."

"Do you still need to ask that kind of question?" Bruto jumped up, "It must be Lazaka's tears...it's not as good as you!"

Responding to him was a chicken paw thrown by the halfling chef, which was easily slapped into the fire with a small hammer in the dwarf's hand, emitting a tempting aroma.

"What shall we do tomorrow? Go ahead or go back and have a look first?" Karaline asked Lancelo who was on the side, who was helping Cora to turn the grill. aroma.

　Thank you book friend ok2001 for voting for the monthly ticket, thank you for your support!Speaking of which, the image of the abyssal chicken can be seen in the 5e Baldur's Gate module, and it is also available in the steam placement game recommended before. Compared with ordinary chickens, the place where the head used to be has become the tail, where the buttocks used to be. Turned into a mouth, the shape is very happy~
