Master of Spells from Faerun

Chapter 255: Worshipers of the Seven Plagues

In the dark underdark, a darker existence appeared in front of Kelanwo and the others. They walked through the stalactite forest for a whole day and finally arrived at the Shadow Druid camp.

The druid's camp was surrounded by a huge semicircular black light curtain, which firmly enveloped the entire camp, and an evil and bloody smell came from the black curtain.

"This is it." Munien held the pendant and stood in front of the dark barrier. The green hag had all cast [advanced invisibility] on them. For the sake of safety today, the green hag removed all fourth-level spell slots. They are all remembered for this spell.

Munien took the pendant and tapped it lightly on the dark barrier. A crack instantly appeared on the barrier, and several people followed the barrier and entered the Druid's camp.

There are also a large number of stalactites in the Druid camp. They flattened the stalactites and built a large number of buildings suspended in mid-air with stone pillars as supports.Cyric saw several figures walking in the distance and quickly made a quiet gesture.

They sneaked over and hid behind a rock. The figures were all dressed in black and red animal robes, with black camouflage stripes on their faces. Their pointed ears betrayed their identities. They were a group of elves. !
"It's the Star Elf!" Munien's consciousness echoed in the psychic link established by the Green Hag.

"Oh my god, how is it possible? They are actually ancient star elves that have disappeared long ago. They still exist." Munien's voice was extremely surprised: "The star elves have a very advanced magic civilization. No wonder they can establish this barrier."

One of the star elves suddenly said to his companion: "Is the transportation time to the back mountain coming soon?"

Another star elf took out a compass and took a look at it and said, "It seems we're almost there. Let's go quickly. If we're late, that madman will be furious again."

The star elf who asked at the beginning spat and said, "Humph, you are just a mortal. How dare you point fingers at the servants of the great beast."

A star elf who had been silent heard this and taunted: "You are really tired of living. You dare to mock even that lunatic. If you have the ability, go fight him and see if the shepherd will avenge you."

His words made his companions choke and stop talking, and they walked towards a mountain peak in silence.

Kelanwo and the others followed secretly, and met several star elves also wearing animal robes along the way. They were all rushing towards the back mountain.

After arriving at the mountain peak, the star elves walked along a trail to the back of the mountain. Kelanwo and the others followed them and discovered that there was a circle formed by a huge stone wall at the foot of the back mountain.

They looked down at the inside of the stone circle. The stone walls were densely covered with various mysterious runes. A large number of strange magical beasts were imprisoned in the stone walls, fighting each other. Some even rushed towards the stone walls, but were blocked by an invisible force. The thrust knocked him away.

"What's going on? Why do they keep these magical beasts in captivity here, and there seems to be something wrong with these magical beasts." Cyric asked in the spiritual link.

"Look at their eyes," Kelanwo pointed out: "Their eyes are all shining with red light, which may have been enhanced by a curse similar to lycanthropy."

Cyric took a closer look, and sure enough, the pupils of every magical beast were frightening scarlet. They were biting each other crazily, and the ground was covered with the corpses of various magical beasts.

The star elves in animal robes now climbed onto the stone wall. Dozens of star elves stood on the stone wall with their hands wide open and began to recite mysterious prayers.

"Reaper of sheep, enemy of the gods,"

"One of the [seven plagues] destined to occur since ancient times,"

"Please give us the power to control the will of the beast, control the body of the beast, tear everything in the world to pieces, and create a world where only beasts exist for you!"

"O great beast, please give believers the power to control madness!"

As the prayer ended, an inexplicable power began to spread from the air, and the beasts in the stone circle became even more crazy. They desperately attacked other magical beasts and devoured their bodies. Scarlet gas filled their bodies. It lingers on their bodies, making them grow bigger step by step.

Kelanwo felt something was wrong. Killing intent began to surge in his heart, and his uncontrollable animal nature was awakening. This was a feeling he had not experienced for many years.

Kelanvor snorted, attracting the attention of his teammates. Cyric said in panic: "Oh no, this ritual can cause the curse of the lycanthrope, and he will transform."

Cyric's words caused Munien and the Green Hag to exclaim. Transformation is not scary, but it will break the maintenance of [Advanced Invisibility]. Once these scary-looking druids find out, I'm afraid they will be alone. Can't run away either.

Kelanvor's eyes widened and bloodshot eyes filled them. He clutched his hands tightly, and his nails even dug into his flesh. A trace of blood flowed from his hands. His teeth began to grow longer, and a trace of blood appeared on his face. Hair, the transformation is about to begin.

Suddenly, a huge burst of magic appeared in the center of the stone circle. Countless scarlet gases were contained, and a fragrance spread. All the magical beasts that were blown by it fell into silence. They lay comfortably on the ground, no longer fighting, just like Domestic puppies are generally well-behaved.

Kelanvor also survived the desperate situation at this time. He felt that the animal nature that he could not control was suppressed by a mysterious force. His teeth changed back to their original shape, and his hair also shrank back into his skin. He changed back to his original shape. .

"Huh, fortunately." Kelanwo breathed a sigh of relief, and a feeling of fatigue came over his heart. He felt as if he had entered the time of the sage, empty and lonely.Seeing that Kelanwo's transformation crisis was over, several people breathed a sigh of relief and continued to observe the movements of the star elves.

After the magical beasts became inexplicably quiet, the door to the north of the stone circle was opened, and two star elves walked in. They took ropes and put them on each magical beast, and pulled them out of the stone circle.

The strange thing is that these magical beasts did not resist or run away, but just followed the star elves obediently, as if they were tame.

The star elves left the stone circle with dozens of magical beasts and walked towards a cave in the distance. The rest of the star elves also dispersed after the ceremony and left the back mountain.

"I'm going to see what they are doing." Munin's firm words sounded through the spiritual link.

"I don't know what evil god they worship, but such horrific behavior is completely contrary to nature. I must find out what these corrupt druids want to do."

Cyric looked at Kelanvor and found that he seemed to be hesitant. He quickly shook his head and said, "Why don't we stop here? The secret has been found, and the place where the magical beasts are kept is also found. Kelanvor, We can go back to work."

Munien also said at this time: "Let's go. Thank you for accompanying me here. The next step is my journey alone. I don't want you to be in danger with me."

After hearing Munien's words, Kelanwo seemed to have finally made up his mind and said: "Cyric, let's go and have a look. I don't want to force you, but I can't let him go alone. You can take my share." half."

Cyric scratched his head in distress. The interests and Kelanvor's firm attitude made him hesitate at this time. He knew that it was decided whether he went to Kelanvor or not. Thinking of the special treatment given by the mage to Kelanvor , if he knew that he was the only one to come back alive, he would probably be furious.

not to mention.
Cyric looked at Kelemvor. After just a few months of getting along, Kelemvor was already a good friend in his heart. For Cyric, he had never been with someone for more than a month. The opportunity, the meaning of friends, allowed him to consider issues from other people's perspective for the first time.

"Okay, let's go together, and you, you have to go too, your employer said you have to listen to us." Cyric nodded helplessly in agreement, and then turned back to the Green Hag and said.

The green hag was helpless. Her master's words were more important than anything else. Since her master asked her to obey their orders, she had to agree even if it meant going up mountains of swords and seas of fire.

After discussing where to stay, several people quickly followed the druid's back to the cave.

There was a wide corridor inside the cave. They walked who knew how far and came to a hall. There were bright candles in the hall, and a huge animal bone skull hanging on the wall. On the ground was a huge Magic circle.

"There is no way. They should have left through this teleportation array." The green hag looked around and judged.

"Can we use this teleportation array?" Kelanwo frowned and asked.

The green hag looked around the teleportation array for a while, stretched out her hand to figure something out, and then said to them: "Okay, but I'm not sure where the other side of the teleportation is. I can only be sure that it is in the Dark Territory."

Kelanwo nodded, stood in the teleportation array, and said to Munin and Sirik who were standing there: "Why are you still standing there, come in."

Munien hurriedly walked into the teleportation room. Cyric sighed deeply and followed suit.

The green hag began to chant a mysterious spell. Under the guidance of the power of the spell, the runes of the teleportation array lit up little by little, a blue light flashed, and they disappeared in place.

When they came to their senses again, several people had arrived in a wide cave. It was still dark here, with only small luminous mushrooms. It was obvious that they were still in the dark area.

Cyric carefully stepped out of the teleportation array and prepared to take a look at the surrounding situation. The green hag shouted in fright: "Wait a minute, don't go out!"

But it was too late, Cyric stepped outside the teleportation array, countless arcane runes lit up, the invisibility effect on them was cleared, and a burst of red light accompanied by an alarm sounded throughout the cave.

"Damn it, it's a magic trap. We've been discovered." Cyric scratched his hair in annoyance. He didn't expect that as a senior thief, he would step into such an obvious trap.

"Humph, let me see, a few little bugs actually stepped into the territory of the great Arcturia. Are they another group of idiots who want to make a name for themselves in the Lost City of Earth? It really excites me."

A half-insect, half-human female mage wearing a gray robe with fly-like wings on her back appeared in front of everyone in a blue light and said with a sneer.

Kelanvor was shocked that they had arrived at Leyline Lost City.
