Master of Spells from Faerun

Chapter 253 The cave where the Shadow Druid is located
Imric clapped his hands, and the dark sword turned into nothingness.

Facing a mage duel, both necromancers and illusion mages are naturally at a disadvantage. One is proficient in various instant-death spells, but is restrained by a simple [anti-death barrier], and the other focuses on deceiving the enemy's five senses, but is restrained by [True Seeing] Lift off the underpants directly. This is a large part of the reason why mages of the necromancy and illusion systems have not occupied the mainstream.

However, archmages of the necromantic system can usually learn the eighth-level spell [Clone]. Although the cost of death is still huge, their survivability is greatly improved compared to mages of other factions.

Compared with the improved version of the legendary mage Manson, the original [Clone Technique] allows the caster to resurrect in a cloned body that has been prepared after death. Of course, this behavior will suffer severe weakening of strength and physical fitness. It will drop two points and the professional level will drop by one level. More importantly, [Clone Technique] has a price. If this behavior of playing with death is repeated too many times in a short period of time, it will cause irreparable damage to the soul. Like becoming an idiot.

Imrik guessed that there was a high probability that this eight-ring necromancer had a clone, but he didn't care. His original purpose was to show his strength to the Zhentarim. Rather than pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, he preferred to kill the tiger once and for all. Let the enemy throw a rat weapon.

The next day, as the first passerby discovered the tragic situation in the warehouse, the incident spread throughout Waterdeep City, even alerting the city guards. Many upper-class forces knew that this was the stronghold of the Zhentarim. This move obviously came from the devil. Crystal Tower Demonstration.

These forces were waiting leisurely for the Zhentarim to speak out and take revenge. Imric's arrogant behavior was obviously not something Manshon could tolerate.

But strangely, there was no response from the Zhentarim, and the Demonic Crystal Tower was unusually quiet at night, as if they were really ready to swallow this bitter pill.

After Imric took action to express his stance, Argus teamed up with the Thieves Guild and began to clean up the Zhentarim forces in the entire port area.Faced with the aggressive behavior of the Master of the Demonic Crystal Tower, the Zhentarim remained silent.

"Damn it, how long do we have to endure it?! The boss was also deceived and actually listened to that damn woman. We retreated from the east of the city to the west of the city, and then we were outside the city. How long do we have to endure it! "

In an underground Zhentarim stronghold, a guard wearing cloth armor complained to his companions through gritted teeth.

Another guard was also helpless. He quickly interrupted the guard: "Shh! Are you looking for death? If someone hears you, you will be finished. Let me tell you, we might as well find a chance to escape. It's better than complaining here. It’s good.”

The complaining guard's eyes lit up when he heard this. Indeed, the members of the Zhentarim are all villains who do all kinds of evil. People with strength and no moral bottom line like them can get away with it no matter where they are, so why bother in a tree? Hang yourself.

Just as he was about to speak, his eyes suddenly turned terrifying, and the guard facing him was a little confused. Then, he felt a chill on his neck and his vision became dizzy.

The guard saw his friend across from him being decapitated by the terrifying woman who suddenly appeared, and his legs trembled with fear. He did not try to fight back and escape, because he knew how powerful the priest was that the woman across from him was.

Pastor Ben, who was wearing a gorgeous priest's robe, smiled and said: "How can you escape? Offering everything to the tyrant is the only purpose of your life. Apart from that,"

Pastor Ben's beautiful eyes became as cold as knives: "You are worthless."

There was another cold light, and the scimitar in the priest's hand cut off the guard's head as quickly as the bright moon. She wiped the sword on her hand, stepped on the two bodies and left here.The priest returned to a gorgeous hall, and a man in a mage's robe walked out of the shadows. He asked irritably: "How long do we have to wait? That damn curse mage is leading that group of thieves' guilds." The waste massacred the people in our stronghold."

The woman glanced at him coldly and said: "Don't worry, Halaster will bring our allies. You have also seen the memory of your resurrected necromancer, right? That useless master of Argus He is definitely not an ordinary person. I have never seen the spells he released before. He summoned so many monsters at will, the terrifying giant eyes, and the dark sword. He is definitely a legendary mage of the conjuration system!"

The mage sighed. He knew what the woman said was right. He had already seen the power of the mysterious silver-haired mage in the memory of his subordinates. He could release such powerful spells at will, especially the long black weapon. Sword, he once saw a red-robed mage release this powerful ancient spell called [Disaster Black Blade], but he has never seen this spell anywhere else.

In the next few days, Imric did not take any further action, because Kelanvor in Neverwinter Forest summoned him again.

"Don't tell me we're going in there!" Cyric was hiding behind a huge rock, gritting his teeth and asking the green hag beside him.

The green hag nodded helplessly. She was ordered by her master to assist these two annoying humans. Even if she was unhappy, she could only help them by touching her nose.

"The Shadow Druid's lair is hidden deep underground. If you want to find their captive pets, you must enter."

The green hag pointed to the cave in the distance. The cave was deep, dark, and bottomless. Several goblins were hiding shivering at the entrance of the cave, standing guard with weapons.

The green hag closed her eyes, and a magic eye formed by a spell appeared above the cave, and she flew into the cave secretly to explore.

After a while, she opened her eyes and said: "There are 20 goblins and a bugbear in the cave, which are easier to deal with. Further inside is a huge deep well. From there, you should be able to reach the Shadow Druid." 's lair."

Cyric had a headache. He didn't expect that the Shadow Druid actually lived in the Underdark. This simply broke his usual understanding. Shouldn't there be only a bunch of black-skinned horseworms from the drow underground?

Kelanwo said helplessly: "We can only go down and take a look. With the help of the green hag, we should be able to avoid the surveillance of those druids."

The green hag is good at prophecy and illusion spells, so the three of them still have a chance as long as they are careful.

Realizing this, Cyric also gained confidence. He and Kelanvor looked at each other, and the three of them immediately set off secretly.

The twenty-odd goblins guarding the entrance to the deep well were very easy to deal with. Cyric pretended to be animals and lured the goblins guarding the door outside the cave. After killing them, he asked the green hag to make himself invisible, and then sneaked in with Kelanvor. Go in and kill all the remaining goblins.

The only more thrilling thing was when the only bugbear tried to jump into the deep well to send a message. Fortunately, the green hag used a dissociation spell in time to completely turn the opponent into ashes.
