Casting spells

But the harp player obviously did something he shouldn't do, that is, he wanted to take the risk of collecting more information about Zhang Cheng, the black dragon, and it was accidentally exposed.

As a time traveler, Zhang Cheng knows very well that there are those forces in this world who must raise their spirits to 12 points, and the Harper Alliance is one of them, because their background is none other than the famous goddess of magic and her voters. ...

Chapter 432 Death of the Harpist

Facing the still piercing cold wind, a group of people quickly crossed the endless frozen wasteland, intending to go straight to the shortcut in the Spine of the World mountain range.

Although the path is slightly dangerous, and you may encounter hungry beasts or monsters, the brave Bruno still chooses to walk here.

In the eyes of the old dwarf, there was a powerful black dragon in the team. Even if they encountered any powerful monsters, they would only serve as extra dishes for dinner in the end, so there was no need to worry.

Of course, when passing by Bremen, the halfling Regis chased after him in panic, expressing that he would complete the adventure journey with his "friends" even if he was killed.

But anyone with a little brain can see that he must have gotten into some trouble, so that he didn't even bring basic luggage.

Looking at this adventure team that will be famous in the Northland in the future, Zhang Cheng's eyes showed a hint of amusement that was not easy to detect, and at the same time he said to himself in a voice that only he could hear: "Since Regis escaped from ten Town, Artemis Entreri will show up soon. I just don't know if this sharp dagger can be used by me..."

"Master! Trouble is coming!"

Ian seemed to have discovered something, and quickly drew out the mithril long sword that was shining with white light, ready to fight.

I saw more than a dozen huge wolves slowly coming out from around the valley, and surrounded several people from all directions, especially the leader, with pure white hair all over his body, and a sinister and cunning light in his eyes.

"Damn it! It's the winter wolf and the warg!" Bruno cursed, raising his shield and axe.

As a dwarf who has lived in Icewind Dale for a long time, he is no stranger to these two beasts with high intelligence, and he is very aware of how difficult each other is.

Not to mention the wargs who are good at using all kinds of despicable tricks, the winter wolf that can breathe ice air is enough for the adventure team who lacks long-range attacks to drink a pot.

"Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The leading winter wolf roughly judged the situation, and immediately let out a piercing howl.

The wargs dispersed quickly after hearing this, and took advantage of the terrain to jump down from a high place to launch a surprise attack.

"Tampas! Please grant me courage and strength!" Wulfgar chanted the name of the God of War, swung his weapon and knocked a worg to the ground.

The powerful magic hammer smashed the poor beast's head in one blow, and the brain mixed with blood flowed all over the ground.

But the reckless barbarian obviously didn't notice, another Warg took the opportunity to pounce on him from behind, opened his mouth full of fangs and tried to bite off his neck.

"Be careful behind you!" Drizzt waved the scimitar in his hand to force the pounced wolf back, and at the same time turned around to remind his companions loudly.

But before Wulfgar could react, Zhang Cheng, who had been standing still, suddenly drew out his evil sword, and chopped the wolf who launched the sneak attack in half with a pop.

In particular, the black smoke wrapped around the sword and the faint howling of pain directly made the young barbarian shiver, his eyes full of vigilance and fear.

Not only him, but the dwarves, dark elves, and halflings also stopped what they were doing and looked sideways.

"Hehe, why, are you interested in my sword?" Zhang Cheng asked with a half-smile, but he didn't stop at all.

In the blink of an eye, he relied on the swordsmanship instilled into his brain by the dark guard professional template, easily beheaded four wargs, and even devoured the souls of the wargs.

"No, we just didn't expect you to have excellent swordsmanship." Drizzt quickly exchanged glances with Bruno, and forced a smile to respond.

Now he is increasingly unable to see through this "weird" black dragon whose behavior is everywhere, and he doesn't even understand what is going on in the other party's mind and what he is planning to do.

The only good news is that the dragon has left Ten Towns, and the next headache should be the ruler of Luskan.

"As I said, learning and knowledge are the ladders of progress. With enough knowledge, even the weakest goblin can kill a god. Well, let's stop chatting and let's get rid of these nasty beasts quickly , by the way add a little fresh meat for dinner."

The voice just fell!

Like an arrow leaving the string, Zhang Cheng rushed directly towards the position where Winter Wolf was.

Just when everyone's eyes were drawn to him, Ian raised the corner of his mouth to reveal a bloodthirsty expression, quietly pulled out a dagger with a cold light, and lightly scratched the back of Tracy's hand.

moment!

The half-elf swayed like he was drunk, and fell to the ground with a plop.

Seeing this, the two wargs quickly rushed forward, bit their throats and kept tearing, the snow was stained red with blood in the blink of an eye.

"Bastards! How dare you?!" Ian put on a look of shock and anger, stabbed one of them to death with a sword, and then kicked the other flying with his feet. He hugged Tracy's body and thought To stop the bleeding.

But unfortunately, for a dying person, hemostasis is undoubtedly of no use. In the end, he had no choice but to put down the body and rush into the pack of wolves to kill.

With their close cooperation and powerful acting skills, the two easily eliminated hidden dangers in the team.

After the battle was over, Drizzt and the others, who knew nothing about it, held a small funeral for the spy of the Harper Alliance, and then began to clean up the battlefield (mainly peeling off the winter wolf's precious fur), and found A relatively safe place to camp.

As for dinner, it is naturally stewed wolf meat and roast wolf meat.

Although everyone knew that these wolves had probably eaten living people, but in the extremely harsh environment of the frozen wasteland, most people didn't care about it at all. The greedy halfling Regis even ate three people.

After dinner, taking advantage of the time to clean up the pots and bowls, Ian stuffed a harp-shaped pendant and an unsent letter into Zhang Cheng's hand.

Needless to ask, the pendant is a token for the Harper spies to identify each other, and the letter contains information about the Crystal Shard and himself.

"Interesting, is the Harper Alliance? I seem to have found a good object to vent..." Flames of madness and destruction burst out from Zhang Cheng's pupils.

He could feel that his sanity was becoming more and more fragile as time went by, and even his dreams at night were pictures of killing civilians and destroying towns.

Instead of continuing to suppress it reluctantly, it is better to find an opportunity to vent properly. Anyway, his future path is destined to be enemies with those guys from the good camp.

The first step is to use the hands of the Arcane Brotherhood to uproot all Harper bases in the surrounding areas of Luskan.

I believe that Clinshinibon will be very happy to assist the new owner in completing this little game of cat and mouse.

Apart from mind flayers and a rare number of psions, no creature can resist its mind-sucking power...

Chapter 433 The City of Desire

Crossing the dangerous Spine of the World mountain range, the howling wolves and the wind that lingered in my ears soon disappeared, replaced by a scene of greenery and revival of everything.

You don't need to ask, the tall mountains running from east to west not only block all kinds of dangerous beasts and monsters on the frozen wasteland, but also block the cold air flow going south, which makes the group feel a lot more relaxed, and occasionally you can see it on the road. Passing business travelers and carriages.

Although they set off every morning and set up camp after sunset, it took them more than two weeks to barely see the tall city wall slowly rising from the horizon ahead.

Standing on a small hillside, Bruno said to the barbarians who had left Icewind Dale for the first time: "There is the City of Thousand Sails! How is it? Didn't you disappoint?"

"It's unbelievable!" Wulfgar stared openly in admiration.

After all, Luskan is a "big city" with a population of tens of thousands. There are more than [-] houses in the city alone. At a glance, there are scattered watchtowers and arrow towers everywhere on the city wall. Many soldiers are Patrol along the city walls with weapons and armor in hand.

Perhaps it was nothing compared to an extremely prosperous place like Waterdeep City, but to a young barbarian who had almost wasted his entire life on the Horde and Ten-Towns, Luskan was a completely different world.

"Be careful, my friend, Luskan usually only welcomes businessmen, ordinary travelers like us are often turned away." Tristan pulled his hood, trying to hide himself completely.
