Lord of Spells from Faerûn

Not only that, the major chambers of commerce in the port area pay Imric as much as 1.5 million gold coins as tribute each year. In addition, Imric's total annual income from selling magic equipment can reach about 5 million gold coins. In fact, If it weren't for the saturated market for magic equipment in Faerûn, Imrik would have been able to earn more by reselling magic equipment. After all, the entire Faerûn has [Sere] and the country of wizards [Halrua] in the glorious south to seize the market. These two countries are well-known producers of magic equipment. With their well-known advertisements, their magic equipment in Faerûn continues. The market share is as high as over 80%.

Even so, with the huge wealth brought by the port area, Imrik's transformation of war spells has also progressed by leaps and bounds. Basically, all summoning spells have been transformed. The war spell versions of all summoning spells have increased the number of summons per caster level. 25.

This includes the [Summon Undead Creatures] series, [Alien Oath Binding] series, [Summon Angels] and [Summon Demons] series, etc.

As for the evocation spells, Imrik also modified several very powerful and practical spells.

The seventh-level spell [Dissociation Feast] can shoot 25 dissociation rays per level.

The nine-level spell [Frozen Heart] can summon a huge heart of ice, which can scatter 25 [extreme ice rays] per level.

As well as the most powerful nine-ring spell [Advanced Sun Flame Explosion], a war spell modified based on [Sun Flame Explosion], which greatly increases the spell range of Sun Flame Explosion, and the spell coverage area reaches a radius of 1 mile. Although the spell is powerful There is no increase, but the lethality against destroying the environment and miscellaneous soldiers has increased sharply, a truly legendary spell level.

Nowadays, Imric has temporarily put aside the transformation of the conjuration and evocation systems. He is now studying more spell transformations of the enchantment system. Most of the spells of the enchantment system are also quite suitable for war spells, such as [Suggestion].

The sixth-level [Group Suggestion] can increase the number of suggestion targets by +1 per caster level, but the war spell version of [Suggestion] developed by Imrik - [Power of Suggestion], can control every spell cast. The number of spellcasting targets with level 25 can be said to completely crush [Group Suggestion], and the spell level is only 4th level!

Of course, compared to [Power of Suggestion], the casting materials for [Group Suggestion] are as cheap as free, not to mention that [Power of Suggestion] takes up to 10 minutes to cast. These are all flaws in war spells, but they do not exist for Imrik.

"Master, this is today's dinner, Roos Barbecue and a glass of red wine." Argus, dressed in butler uniform, walked in with a delicate silver plate.

Argus was attacked by the Zhentarim in the previous battle and was completely buried in the sea of ​​fire. Imrik had to use the nine-ring divine spell [Full Resurrection] to resurrect him. Although the power of resurrection is extremely precious, Imrik Rick didn't want to give others such qualifications arbitrarily, but he was very satisfied with Argus' ability, so he made an exception to resurrect him.

After Imrik finished his dinner, he calmed down and continued to study the transformation of enchantment war spells. With the guidance of Clinshinibon, an enchantment master who was proficient in [Domination], the process of spell transformation was extremely smooth. He carried out the purpose of turning a deaf ear to the outside world and left all matters to Wally and Argus.

Time passed like this bit by bit, and everything in Waterdeep City seemed to fall into silence. The Zhentarim did not move again after that incident. People were enthusiastically looking forward to the flower blooming season in June.

Until June 1st, everything changed.

——

The main material plane, the country's crystal wall system, and the Pantheon in space.

Helm, the eternal sleepless eye, the god of guardians, watched his companions warily. Everyone was here, every god, demigod, and elemental god who existed in the chakra. The walls of the pantheon, which served as a reception space, have disappeared, leaving only the windows still in place, hanging in the air of nothingness. Heim looked out the window and saw a world that was constantly corrupting and collapsing. The Pantheon and its many unfinished altars were at the center of this upheaval, an island barely large enough to accommodate all the participating gods.

A crumbling gray stone road emerged on the sea of ​​corruption, leading to a place beyond the sight of the gods. This is the only way to leave this temple, but no god dares to set foot on this rugged road, fearing that this road will take them to another place even worse than here.

The sky wraps around the island like a white canvas, dotted with dark stars. The dazzling light that even the divine eye could not look directly penetrated the sky, forming rune words on the ivory sky. As Heim read the runes, he began to tremble.

"All that is past. Our knowledge, our beliefs, are lies. The age of the gods is over."

Then the rune disappeared. Helm couldn't help but suspect that this was a trick played by one of his colleagues who was summoned here to scare other gods, but he quickly gave up this idea. He knew that the person who sent the runes was a power even more powerful than the gods present.

The dull thunder was accompanied by thick dark clouds carrying black lightning. The Pantheon was cast into a shadow. The originally pure white sky was blocked by thick clouds, and the gray stone road completely collapsed and sank into corruption. in the sea.

That one has arrived.

The endless fury resonated with the material plane, the lightning was his roar, the dark clouds were his expression, the god of gods, Io, had not yet arrived, but his wrath had already reached the Pantheon.

Helm moved his eyes slightly and saw Mystra, Bane and Melkor, the god of death, having a heated argument on the side, which ended with Mystra angrily looking for a more suitable person to talk to. There was a hint of melancholy on Liela's face, and she twisted her hands together unconsciously. Then she came back to her senses and stopped her movements, staring at them in horror. Next to her, Ilmat, the god of suffering, was dancing. He could not suppress bursts of laughter, and talked to himself from time to time to other gods.

Yes, Heim was not the only god summoned by Io, he was just the first one to appear. After he was forcibly captured by that terrifying power, gods one after another also appeared here.

Io's call is so terrifying. To the goddess of magic, Mystra, it seems to indicate that magic is in chaos; to the beautiful fire-haired Sune, the goddess of love and beauty, it is an ugly, sick beast that drags the goddess into a place where it howls. Destiny; for Bane, the Dark God, the call came in the guise of endless love and forgiveness, its light scorching Bane's godhead as he was taken from his realm.

As Helm observed his comrades, a group of gods less affected by the summons gathered around him. The guardian gods tried to ignore their pleas, but dignity and reserve were obviously no longer important to these gods. They scratched and yelled at him, wanting to know more information.

"My home is ruined! The palace in my kingdom is shattered!" One god after another complained to Heim, but the guardian god chose to turn a deaf ear. These are all native gods of Faerûn like him, and their life and death are in the hands of that supreme being.

Then, Heim looked at the crowd on the other side. Those gods seemed to already know what happened. They were angry and distressed, but not afraid.

Yes, those gods are all gods from other crystal wall systems. They were only part of the power in Kingdom Tianyu that was captured by Io. In order to calm down his unknown anger, it is obvious that these existences across the crystal wall system have been Know why they are here.

Corellon, the god of elves, raised his hand to stop Angelis, the god of spring, who was trying to speak next to him, and secretly transmitted the message: "No need to talk too much, the crown prince will come out to explain soon, and protect his divinity in the kingdom and sky. That’s it, you can’t stop this.”

"It was Io who gathered us here, and we will soon understand everything." Heim explained to them one by one, but he soon got tired of repeating the same words, and finally had to warn these gods to leave quickly. Helm thought about the will of his eternal king Io, and there was no doubt that some changes were about to happen. At least there was no doubt about it - he came to this conclusion.

Talos, the Lord of Destruction, stepped forward and shouted: "I say, stop these tricks! If our master wants to express something, let him say it, and let his supreme wisdom fill our empty souls and empty hearts. Mind!" Talos emphasized the word "wisdom" as disdainfully as possible, but no other gods paid attention to him. They knew that the Destroyer was as afraid as themselves.

Talos's speech received no response, and the gods who were originally standing around him moved away. The silence after the storm heralds an answer more disturbing than any statement, it represents an ultimate, the final verdict of Io's trial. Only then did the gods realize that their fate had been sealed long before this summons. A terrifying silence filled the hall, but was soon broken.

The supreme power descended from the sky. Its power was so vast and great that the gods stopped making noise and lowered their noble heads.

"Guardians of Balance, these words are addressed to each of you."

That was Io's voice, and his supreme authority caused all the gods present to kneel down. Only Ben barely allowed one knee to touch the cold floor.

"Your mission is so great! You should have stabilized the scale of balance that could overturn at any time and maintained the harmony between order and chaos. Unfortunately, you chose to act like a child and committed a crime in the struggle for power. The crime of theft..."

Bane suddenly wondered whether the master who gave life to the gods in the beginning had now summoned all his masterpieces just to destroy them and start over?

"Destruction will come to you one day, Bane."

Io didn't know why he suddenly mentioned Bane, as if the God of Darkness spoke his thoughts loudly.

"But don't worry about yourself, because destruction is an absolute mercy compared to what you and your other comrades who have betrayed my trust have to face."

Please explain, Io’s scope of authority. The local gods of Faerûn, such as Mystra, Bane and the like. Io can package his power and the body in the Kingdom of God and summon him here. And other alien gods from the crystal wall system. Because their divinity has been linked to the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, Io can summon all the power they have invested now and the divinity they will invest in the kingdom and sky in the infinite future. Therefore, the gods of the outer crystal wall system will also be captured, but only with partial power.
