Broad World

Chapter 488: Alarmist

At ten o'clock in the morning, Henry and his team showed up at the door of the Knights of the Hot Heart on time. +顶+点+novel ww.3w.om There have been gathered a large number of soldiers, paladins, masked mages, priests, etc., and even in order to greatly improve combat effectiveness, it also hired two semi-elves with a high level of bard. Poets, judging from their demeanor, are probably the spies of the League of Harpists in the city.

It has to be said that Am is worthy of being the most prosperous place in the entire Faerun Continent. Just look at the dressing of these guys. There are a total of 1,500 people. Except for the wizards who can’t wear armor, other priests, paladins and soldiers are all wearing "enchanting protective helmets." There are many. Human weapons are glowing in various colors, and there is no doubt that all of them are enchanted.

The commander of this operation is the commander of the Knights, Weatherland. He greeted Henry as soon as he saw Henry. "Good morning, Your Excellency Dragon Rider. We are ready. If you and your partner have no problems, we will set off now."

"Of course, we have been fully prepared long ago and can set off at any time. In addition, this team is really luxurious. I bet that if we add "Arcane Vision" now, we will definitely be blinded." Heng used Said in a half-joking tone.

To be honest, he is really a bit envious and jealous. You must know that the combined equipment of these people is simply an astronomical figure. The market price of a "glamorous protective helmet" alone costs hundreds of gold coins, and one thousand five hundred is nearly one million, plus enchanted weapons and armor. , Boots, and other miscellaneous things, it takes at least two million to build such an army.

What's more, everyone has a professional level of no less than three, which is exactly the elite of the elite. It can be said that this team is already the top group of people in Amn. As long as more than one-third of the casualties. The entire senior executives of Amn will be bitter.

Witherland was amused by this joke. He touched his short beard and smiled and said, "Yes. It is every commander's dream to be able to command such an elite group to destroy the evil. Today, my dream is about to come true."

Seeing the energetic head, Henry shook his head slightly and reminded: "If I were you, you wouldn't be so optimistic. Unlike most monsters, the Heart Demon possesses a terrifying power called psychic power. Maybe one or two will not pose too much threat, but a large number can even distort reality. So you'd better prepare yourself. I estimate that these people will be killed at least one-third or more."

"How is it possible?!! We have fully prepared, including helmets that can fight mind control. A large number of priests and wizards, and finally a group of determined and fearless paladins, even if they are composed of giants, trolls and ogres. The formed evil army will retreat when it encounters it, not to mention that the opponent has only about 300 people, and only about 2,000 slaves are controlled." Witheran retorted excitedly.

With an incredible expression on his face, he couldn't believe that he would suffer such a heavy loss with such adequate preparation. If the speaker is not a legendary spellcaster, he might not even listen.

"Your Excellency, you better believe these words. Mr. Henry is a very knowledgeable person, and there is no need to lie to us." Kaidong, who had just walked over, stood up and expressed his support without hesitation. After the last adventure, he admired the young lord very much. If it weren't for the opponent's endless strategy and powerful spellcasting ability. It is impossible to complete the mission of destroying the cult.

Hearing the same from the paladin who had served the longest time in the Knights, Witherland hesitated. He hesitated and asked, "Is it really so scary?"

Henry nodded very seriously. "That's right. If the three hundred mind-savers concentrate their psychic powers, they can kill a powerful elector like the Seven Sisters of the North, Ilminster, and Kelburn, even if I choose to confront it directly. There is no chance of winning. Of course, this is still in the absence of the calculation of the mastermind."

"Damn it! Is there no solution?" The leader cursed in a low voice. He could hardly imagine what the consequences would be if this team suffered a heavy loss. Not to mention whether the council and the major temples would be furious, just the unfriendly neighbors around them would start to move around.

"I'm sorry, except for the militarist Gisyankis and their deadly rival Gissele, I am afraid that most people do not have a very good way of psychic powers. Don't think that the mind-severs only have the ability to control charm. Psionic powers are notorious for their weirdness and changeability. They can not only use powerful force to frighten the enemy in place, but they can also plunge the target into their own inner world forever."

"In addition, you can also create objects out of thin air, let time flow backward, and simulate the effects of various magic and divine arts. It can be said that only you can't think of it, and you can't do it without psychic powers. To some extent, seize Inner Demon should be considered the most difficult to deal with on the main plane, and at the same time the most terrifying monster."

Henry's introduction to psychic powers made everyone sweat, and the leader of the group even became short of breath. Obviously, he had never really come into contact with this evil creature that had lived underground for a long time before. The only thing he knew came from incomplete books and materials.

Kaidong sighed softly and asked, "There is really no way? For example, use some tactics like the last time I dealt with beholders."

"No. The Mind Reaver is a creature that strictly observes the order, and does everything according to the instructions of the master, even if it is death. In addition, their only hobby is to eat the brain. The smarter the better, there is nothing else. Any hobby. Completely calm and sensible, this is the enemy we have to deal with." After finishing Henry, he quietly observed everyone's reactions.

He exaggerated this way, well, in fact, it can't be regarded as exaggeration, just stating some facts. However, it is clear that most of the mind-daughters simply cannot master so many psychic powers, even if they master the number of releases, they are extremely limited. After all, every time a Psion uses a skill, it needs to consume something called psionic points, which is a bit similar to the arcanist's magic arc. The greater the power, the more it consumes.

There is only one purpose for this. That is to bring the entire team into your own control. Because he had discovered what Robert said about the investigation team of the Los Angeles Temple. Prepare to consume a part first by the hands of the Mind Demon. As for the rest, they will be used as cannon fodder when the vampire lair is cleared.

Henry could feel that he seemed to enjoy the pleasure of this dual identity more and more. In the eyes of most people, he is a wise ruler and great adventurer. Although he has repeatedly stated that his camp is neutral, most people still regard him as the embodiment of kindness and justice.

Secretly, he runs a huge underground intelligence network that is not inferior to the League of Harpers and the Santarin Society. At the same time, he secretly continues to weaken the influence of the gods in the territory, and he personally arranges many conspiracies against neighboring countries. Coupled with a group of rings of truth formed entirely by evil liches, it is completely an evil villain.

At least in the eyes of most bards. This is already an out-and-out demon-like figure, not much inferior to Samast, who founded the Dragon Lich Cult. It's just that Henry hasn't shown his fangs yet, he still pretends to be harmless to humans and animals, and quietly waits for the first unlucky person to be delivered to his mouth.

After a long silence, the head of the regiment Weserland asked in a heavy tone: "Your Excellency Dragonrider, if this force is under your command, can you reduce the loss even more?"

"I can only say as much as possible, because before the actual engagement, the opponent's strength is still a mystery for the time being." Henry said ambiguously. He won't really guarantee anything, God knows if the Mind Reavers have any terrible secret weapons.

"Nevertheless. But you are still the person who treats these evil creatures the most, so I am now officially handing over the command. I hope that under your leadership, more soldiers' lives can be saved." After speaking, Witherland sighed deeply. Take a sigh of relief. Although he wanted to be a real general, he finally gave up.

"Thank you very much for your trust, but I am not very good at marching and issuing orders, so I'd better be a deputy." Henry is quite self-aware. He knew very well that it was impossible for these arrogant soldiers to truly obey an outsider, even if the outsider had quite a strong personal strength.

No way, xenophobia and local protectionism are inevitable in any place. Rather than being a short-headed supreme commander, it is better to become the person the commander trusts most. Just like the evil wizards in those stories, as long as you can control the king, the whole country can't be used for your own use, so why bother about that mere title.

But not everyone can resist the temptation of honor, at least Westerland can't. He held Henry's hand slightly excited and said: "You are really a noble person, please allow me to thank you on behalf of the entire coalition army."

"Nothing, this is what I should do. Also, it's half past ten, I think we should start." Henry reminded with a slight smile.

"That's right~www.ltnovel.com~ It is indeed time to set off. Sir Kedong, you should go and inform our paladin brothers now and let them be responsible..."

Witherland immediately entered the role of commander, and orders were issued quickly, waiting for a long time for the army to begin to act, set out in groups according to the camp to which they belonged, and marched towards the entrance of the sewer. Many residents along the way are pointing and talking about what is going on below, and they are so aggressive.

Henry silently took out five necklaces made of agate, fluorite, malachite, turquoise, blue quartz and other messy gems from his pocket. He assigned one to all his teammates including Kaidong and explained: "Put it on, this can provide you with some protection. Remember, each gem can only offset one mental attack. If it is particularly powerful, it will consume Three or more. Once the gems are all broken, then this necklace is useless."

"Wow! I bet it must be worth a lot of money." Imoen exclaimed after putting the necklace around his neck.

"Yes, each string costs 1,500 gold coins, and it's a one-time consumable. Let's go, otherwise you won't be able to keep up with the big army." Henry said that he loved the girl's short pink hair that grew out of touch. He had a hunch that this action would definitely not be too easy, there must be something terrifying in that weird base.
