Master of Spells from Faerun

119 Threat
The barbarians on the battlefield of Bryn Shander had lost their fighting spirit under the magic bombardment of the mysterious mage standing in the sky. One by one, they began to put down their human and dwarf opponents around them and headed towards King Biog. He ran halfway up the mountain, ready to obey the opponent's orders, or to leave the battlefield through the [Ice Wind Pass] opposite the Brimen Trail.

When the savages on the mountainside heard someone rushing up the eastern slope, they assumed that Heafstad had finished his battle there, and joined them to take [Bryn Shander] in one fell swoop.Then Biog saw the army led by King Heafstad fleeing to the north [Ice Wind Pass], which is opposite the Bremen Trail, a road between Lake Dinesha and the west of the Great Cone of Cairn .The leader of the clan of wolves knows his men are in trouble.He immediately announced the immediate retreat loudly without leaving any room, and then ordered the troops around him to charge in the opposite direction, hoping to reunite with Halfdan and the bear tribe and rescue as many of his troops as possible.

Before he could completely turn the army around, he found that the coalition forces of the four towns of Kemp and Duerden Lake were behind him. They had already solved the surprise attack team of the Halfdan tribe and rushed to support the main battlefield. The huge team was almost absent. How much did Tamarin lose.

And [Bryn Shander], Kaikoni, and Cadineva's army also came out of the city wall. They saw that the barbarians were easily defeated by the mysterious mage in the sky, and they bravely tried to come out to claim credit. In the end, Bruno Come around the hill with the rest of the elite dwarven squad and soldiers from the Eastern Exiles.

Biog ordered his men to form a tight circle, knowing it would be an uphill battle, and he would probably die forever. "Tampus is watching!" he shouted to the men. "Make him proud of his people!"

Nearly 1000 barbarians remained, and they continued to fight in the belief that their gods would bless them.They held on for almost an hour, singing battle songs and watching their comrades fall, but then the lines were breached and melee broke out.

A large number of human soldiers broke down the iron wall of human flesh built by this group of barbarians like the three hundred warriors of Sparta, but King Bioge rushed out from the center of the crowd with a huge battle ax in his hand, and smashed the enemy in the northeast. Most places will be surrounded by a gap torn.

"Weakness!"

The mysterious singing sounded, and it was so clear and transparent in this noisy environment. The faces of the dwarves on the main battlefield, the Eastern exile army, and the army in the city wall all changed. They knew that the deadly voice came from that terrifying mage , the power of nature in his hands allows his will to unleash its power, even as his allies, if they don't find a safe place immediately, they will be mercilessly slaughtered.

A dark green necromantic ray shot out from the air, hitting King Biog's stalwart and majestic body, King Biog grunted, and supported the ground with an ax with one hand to prevent his suddenly weak body from falling to the ground , he felt dizzy, his whole body was losing strength, and his eyes turned black.

He looked up at the sky, the source of the strange power, a mage in a gorgeous black robe was hidden under the hood and stood in the void, a head of silver hair flowed out from under the black hood, and his indifferent black eyes shone like a galaxy Like light, a spherical object exuding golden light was suspended in front of his chest, slightly undulating like some kind of living creature.

Imrik saw that the [Weakness Art] worked, raised his hands, looked up at the sky and chanted loudly, the golden ball of light on his chest shone slightly, and as the mage completed the mysterious spell, the natural force formed a dark cloud in the sky, blue A ray of thunder shot from Imrik's hand into the dark clouds.

【Extremely effective and powerful——Summon Lightning Technique】

The dark cloud emitted a "sizzling" electric sound, and the dazzling electric light kept shining in it. King Bioge felt that something was wrong, but his weak body made him unable to support himself to move quickly to avoid the coming attack.

Imrik looked down and pointed at King Biog's position. His pale fingers protruded from the black robe like bones, and the lightning in the dark clouds rolled as if ordered by the king.

"boom!"

A bolt of lightning descended from the sky and struck King Biog in an instant. The thick and mighty barbarian leader let out a muffled groan.

Seeing that a single bolt of lightning could not deal with this powerful barbarian warrior at all, Imrik continued to stir the thundercloud formed by [Summon Thunder], the second, third, and fourth
The remaining nine bolts of lightning struck King Bioge one after another. This resolute barbarian warrior was turned into charred by the endless lightning, and even if he died, he maintained a half-standing posture and did not fall down.

A soldier of the Eastern exile army saw this terrifying and powerful barbarian warrior finally died, and excitedly raised his long sword in his hand. He wanted to cut off the barbarian warrior's head and receive a generous reward.

With a "whoosh", a thick thunderbolt shot down from the sky like a laser, and the [Lightning Beam] pierced through the human soldiers who raised their long swords. Imrik looked down at his surroundings expressionlessly and looked at him in fear For the rest of the people, a clear voice rang in everyone's ears.

"Don't touch this corpse, if you don't want to die."

This powerful King Biog has stepped into the ranks of [Master of the Kingdom], and he is as powerful as King Heafstad, who killed a level 11 paladin with one blow. He will not allow these people to cut off the heads of corpses and exchange them for money , he needs a complete corpse of a powerful warrior.

In this way, a strange open space was formed on the battlefield. King Biog's body stood on the ground like a coke, but neither barbarians nor humans dared to approach even the slightest bit, because the fate of approaching King Biog was the same as that of King Biog. A circle of dead bodies had been shown to them without a doubt.

The mysterious mage who killed King Biog attracted everyone's attention. Cassios and others are fine. They have already witnessed the terrifying magic power of Imrik's [Sandstorm] that swept across the battlefield, and they have become accustomed to it. On the contrary, Kemp from [Tamalan] was astonished as a man of heaven. With such power, he naturally knew how expensive it would be to hire such a powerful mage to the battlefield.

Thinking of this, he glanced at the mage with an unfriendly expression. He felt that no matter who hired the mage, it was an act of claiming credit after the war ended, to seize the right to speak, and to make himself the actual leader who saved the ten towns from suffering.

After the death of King Biog, the only one who could crush the battlefield, the rest of the barbarians became water without a source, and were quickly wiped out by the human army at the cost of enough casualties.

There were less than fifty barbarians who escaped the battlefield and survived.

As the battle drew to a close, the exhausted warriors of Ten Towns began to count casualties.More than a thousand of their partners were killed, and more than 500 people were seriously injured and their lives were dying.Yet it was not a great loss compared with the fifty-five hundred savages who died on the streets of Tamarin and on the slopes of Bryn Shander.

In fact, nearly one-third of the deaths were caused by the spells used by Imrik. This also made the surrounding soldiers look at him as if they saw a demon after the black-robed mage in the sky landed on the ground. he.

Bruno didn't stop, he came up to say hello to Imrik, and then he planned to return to the battlefield to the east to find his missing companions, but when he saw the last person who was honorably carried up the slope of Bryn Shander, he still couldn't help it. Involuntarily stopped.

"Glutton?" said the dwarf in surprise.

"My name is Regis." The halfling retorted from above, crossing his hands proudly across his chest.

"Pay your respects, good dwarf," said one of those carrying Regis. "In a battle, Regis, the spokesperson of Lonewood Town, killed the traitor who was leading the way for the enemy, but he himself was seriously injured!"

When the parade passed, Bruno smiled and said contemptuously: "I bet there must be many details left in this story!" He said to his friends who were laughing around him. "Otherwise, I'm a bearded dwarf!"
-
Kemp of Targos and one of his lieutenants were the first to reach Drizzt Do'Urden as he fell to the ground.Kemp stomped on the drow with the toe of his bloodstained shoe, and heard a vague groan in response.

"He's alive," Kemp told the deputy with a smile. "What a pity." He kicked the seriously injured dark elf again, this time more enthusiastically.The other smiled and agreed, and raised his foot to join in the fun.

Suddenly, a gauntleted fist struck Kemp in the waist, sending the speaker flying over Drizzt and down the slope.His deputy turned just in time for Bruno's second punch to hit him directly in the face.

"Try it yourself!" growled the irate dwarf as he felt the man's nose smashed by him.

Bryn Shander's Cassius saw this from the top of the hill, yelled angrily and ran down the hill towards Bruenor. "Someone should teach you some diplomatic etiquette!" he scolded.

"Stand there and don't come, you son of a swamp pig!" was Bruno's threatening response. "Dirty you owe this black elf your life and your home!" He yelled at everyone who could hear him, "You treat him like a villain!"

"Talk to me carefully, dwarf!" Cassius retorted, tentatively grasping the hilt of his sword.The dwarves lined up before the leader, and Cassius's men gathered around him.

Imrik, who was also standing on the hill, also saw this scene. Drizzt's powerful martial arts and extremely high combat wisdom caught his attention, which was the most powerful he had seen since appearing in Faerun He doesn't intend to give up this dark elf, on the contrary, using the blood of these stupid officials for a show to win the favor of the dark elves and dwarves is a very cost-effective deal.

Around the crowd, a blue halo appeared in the air, from which Imrik walked slowly.

"Good afternoon, friends from Ten Towns."

The black-robed mage greeted everyone with a smile, but Kemp looked at him unkindly. Until now, he hadn't found out who hired this powerful mage, and Casios ignored him when he saw Kemp. The dog-legged man also froze, and didn't reply in embarrassment, complaining in his heart that Kemp didn't know what to do. Who did he think he was, who dared to offend a powerful mage who destroyed an army of barbarians?
Imrik was not angry. In his eyes, these two people were just tools for show. Doing so only gave him a better reason to do the next thing, just like giving everyone a "perfect victim" Excuse.

"I believe you have also seen that in this war, I consumed a lot of advanced spells to slaughter the barbarian army, and used a lot of magic materials and magic scrolls."

The black-robed mage still spoke with a smile on his face and said that the leaders present heard that the secret channel was not good.

"To make up for my loss, I believe that you, as leaders who are willing to pay any price to save your people, are willing to pay the price, aren't you?"

Agowa of [Tamalan] echoed and said: "Of course, Mr. Mage, although I didn't see the scene, I also heard that you cast an extremely powerful spell. I know that in order to cast advanced spells, you Mage, They will pay extremely precious spell-casting materials as the price, which is a completely reasonable request."

Kemp glanced at A Guowa with a gloomy face. Now he suspects that this hypocrite who usually pretends to be upright has hired a mage. Although he has money, he is not willing to spend money to pay this limelight mage. Without him , he can still use the army to destroy the barbarians!

Imrik nodded with a smile, and was surprised to find that there was even a fan. He announced happily: "In this case, I need the corpses of all the barbarians who died in battle, and a reward of [-] gold coins."

Kemp's face changed drastically, [-] gold coins?This is enough for him to hire a [Kingdom Master]-level spellcaster!

He threatened with a gloomy face: "Stop joking, mage, I admit that you have made some contributions, but it is wishful thinking for you to ask for so many things. You can take away the garbage corpses of the barbarians, but [-] gold coins, hehe, behind your back The person who invited you should be able to pay you, but now you want to eat both, be careful not to eat and choke to death."

Cassius on the side looked as if he had eaten shit. He really didn't know what Kemp was going crazy. Did he think that the low-level mages he had hired were the same as the mages in front of him? Mana dared to be so provocative, and what was even more tragic was that, as Kemp's henchman, he still had to stand in line with him!

Imrik looked at Kemp in front of him with great interest. This is the negative impact of social progress. There are always overwhelmed mortals who think that relying on power and money in their hands can be equal to the real strong. You know , in Netheril, the kingdom of mages in ancient times, such mortals were slaves and objects of torture and killing for pleasure in the hands of mages.
