Master of Spells from Faerun

Chapter 147 Death Cloud Art

Imrik did not answer Drizzt's question, for at once they heard a hoarse, familiar cry.

"Give me a giant that screams like a pig butcher!" Bruno led a group of people, standing on the stone and shouting.

These enraged dwarves came here with incredible speed.In less than an hour, Bruno's family gathered and set off after Imrik and others, and they also kept up with the dark elves' agile speed.

"It's good to see you," Drizzt shouted as he walked over to the dwarf.He found Bruenor looking at the bodies of the three sub-giants with grim satisfaction.Fifty dwarves, livid and ready for battle, surrounded the leader, which already made up half the dwarves in the dwarven valley.

"Drizzt," the dwarf greeted with his usual thoughtfulness. "Did you find the nest?"

Imrik replied from the side: "A mile to the west, don't make them a priority. They won't go anywhere else, but they will have guests here today."

"Do those monsters have any reinforcements?" Bruno said.

"Sixty orc reinforcements," Imrik said softly.

Bruno swung his axe. "I can't bear it anymore, I want to kill all those bloodthirsty monsters!"

"North and east is the only way," Drizzt deduced. "Go down the Icewind Pass from somewhere, and go around the north side of Lake Dinesha. That's where the giant's lair is."

Imrik stood up and said at this time: "It is enough for Drizzt and Wulfgar to follow me, we will go and deal with the group of giants, Bruno, go and kill the group of half-orcs, the group of half-orcs The leader is a troll, make sure you have fire or acid as a weapon against it."

After finishing speaking, Imrik told Bruno the route of the half-orcs, and the dwarf nodded. Although he really wanted to kill the giants, he also knew how disadvantaged the dwarves were against these giants, and let them deal with the half-orcs That's enough.

Drizzt had no objection, for him, the scimitar in his hand was his most trusted weapon, he would use it to kill any enemy, and Wulfgar had no objection either, this barbarian boy has always had something for Imrik A deep fear, even though he is now his teammate, watching the mage use spells to wantonly slaughter those sub-giants who seemed extremely strong still brought him some bad memories.

Then the two teams dispersed, and Imrik caught Drizzt and Wulfgar in a flash, and then disappeared in place. Through [Teleportation], the three immediately arrived at the place in the memory of the subgiant.

The giants' lair was a deep pit in the open air, and the ground was covered with sharp stone thorns. Standing on the edge of the pit, Imrik saw dozens of giants sleeping carelessly on the dirty mud.

Imrik took out the legendary super magic bead, and the golden ball of light was suspended on the mage's chest, emitting a dazzling light. The wind blew inexplicably, and a dim yellow-green smoke appeared in the deep pit with the breeze, and quickly The spread filled the pit.

[Instant extremely effective and powerful expansion-dead cloud technique]. (Extended super magic can increase the coverage area of ​​the spell. The difference between extreme effect and strong effect is that one doubles the power and the other half doubles the power. Therefore, the addition of the two becomes the original three times the power.)
The five-ring spell that has been strengthened four times in a row and comes with the [Spell Penetration] feat replaced by Imrik himself showed its power. The huge poisonous fog corroded the bodies of the giants covered in it, The giants were awakened by the severe pain in their sleep, but found themselves lying powerlessly in the yellow-green poisonous mist, spitting blood from the mouth.

Wulfgar looked at everything in front of him in shock. The mage actually killed dozens of sleeping giants with a single spell.

Imrik looked at the corpses caused by [Dead Cloud Spell] and nodded in satisfaction. You must know that if the supermagic effect he applied to this spell was used by ordinary mages, this five-ring spell would require a seventeen-ring spell. Spell slots to cast!Even if the super magic instant cast without any power bonus is removed, a thirteenth-ring spell slot is needed to release this extravagant [Dead Cloud Art].

Drizzt swallowed and said, "Am I not mistaken, this is the death cloud spell? Is the five-ring spell so powerful?"

Imrik chuckled and said, "It was strengthened with a little bit of super magic skills."

Imrik snapped his fingers casually, and a gust of wind blew away all the poisonous mist in the pit. The three jumped down the pit, and were surprised to find that a frost giant was still tenaciously alive.

The giant's eyes were full of viciousness. Unlike his idiotic counterparts, even though he had lived tenaciously until now, he had not cried out for his life.

"You cheap dog, damn wizard, what kind of tricks are you playing?" Frost Giant spat out blood, weakly cursing the black-robed mage.

The sharp scimitar was raised to the frost giant's throat, and Drizzt said coldly: "Tell us exactly what you want to do."

"Then kill me quickly and settle this matter! I won't let you get what you want." The giant laughed, he really didn't care. "I serve my master," declared the giant. "It is an honor to die for Akar Kessell!"

Wulfgar and Drizzt exchanged uneasily glances.Never had they seen or heard a giant so fanatically and blindly devoted to one man.And the sight haunted them.The main reason why the giants can't dominate the weak people in Icewind Dale is that they don't want to devote themselves to one thing for any reason, and they don't want to follow a certain leader.

"Who is Akar Kessell?" Wulfgar demanded.

The giant smiled evilly. "If you're friends with the townspeople of Ten-Towns, you'll soon find out!"

Imrik stood aside silently without speaking, and the power of the heart silently invaded the brain of the frost giant.

Level [-] ability - Mental Probe.

This enhanced version of [Reading Thoughts] psychic power allows Imric to see the deepest secrets of the frost giant, even secrets that he himself has forgotten.

He saw that the frost giant was named "Bilin" by his parents when he was born, which represented the meaning of "tyrant" in the language of the frost giants. He saw that Bilin had grown from a weak frost giant to the leader of the frost giant tribe step by step. , Showing off his power on the tundra, leading the tribe to hunt the white dragon.

Afterwards, he saw the deepest memory in the frost giant's heart. He knelt down in front of the wizard with black nail polish on his hand. A gleaming purple crystal was suspended in the wizard's hand. Powerful spell power emanated from the purple The crystals poured out and wiped out all the tribes that did not obey his will.

He saw in Bi Lin's memory that the wizard once looked at the purple crystal in his hand and murmured obsessively: "Smasher magic crystal"
