Lord of Spells from Faerûn

As Imrik ran on Beanbag, he turned his head to look at the speed of the sandstorm. In the face of such a natural disaster, his power was so weak that even with the Endless Book, there was nothing he could do.

Fortunately, they found it far away from the sandstorm, giving them enough time to escape.

I don’t know how long I walked, but I didn’t see any sign of an oasis except yellow sand. The sandstorm was already visible to the naked eye. The yellow sand was flying all over the sky. The strong wind even blew away the bedding on the carriage.

"Ahem, and, ahem, how far!" Gassanre choked on the sand and coughed, yelling at the hunchbacked man.

"We're here! Ahem, look! It's an oasis!" At this time, Domila shouted excitedly from the side.

Sure enough, in the sight blurred by the yellow sand, a looming green appeared in front.

As if they had been given a shot of blood, everyone hurriedly accelerated their pace.

Imric raised a ball of water to cover his face. He blessed himself with underwater breathing. Breathing through water filtration was much more comfortable than them.

The oasis was getting closer and closer, and its true face was revealed to everyone. It was a green lake surrounded by many palm trees, and there was a stone fortress beside the lake with a flag with the word "Razor" on it.

Perhaps due to the approach of a large number of people, a few bare-chested and muscular men wearing animal skin shorts walked out of the stone castle. They also wore hats with feathers on their heads, and had several horizontal lines drawn with oil paint on their faces.

"Do you have a pass?" the leader, a muscular man, asked forcefully in a rough voice.

Gassanre quickly took out a badge and showed it to them with a flattering smile. After looking at it, the man nodded and said: "Everyone who enters the fortress gets one gold coin, and the tauren counts too!"

Gassangrui glanced back in pain. For a car with more than twenty people, he had to pay more than twenty gold coins.

He gritted his teeth, took out the gold coin and handed it to the other party. The man took a look, turned back with satisfaction and shouted: "Open the door!"

The door of the stone castle slowly opened, and everyone hurriedly hid in.

There were many young men in the same attire and young women in animal skirts inside the castle, and they all ignored the comings and goings of people.

Imrik shook off the yellow sand stained on his cloak and observed with interest the decorations around the stone castle, including animal skull specimens, oil lamps, animal skin carpets, and stone floors. This building was filled with a primitive beauty.

"These people are the Bedai barbarians." Imrik looked back at the sturdy man who brought them in. The only people who could open up their own territory in this desert, except the blue dragon, were probably the nomads in the desert - the Bedai. Dai barbarian.

The muscular man looked back at them, laughed and said, "Welcome to Standing Stone Plains."

Enoch is not a static desert landscape. Although outsiders always imagine it as a simple huge desert, in fact it is composed of a series of continuous deserts of different types: transition from dry sand to dust. to savanna covered with weathered rubble, then to frozen tundra areas and desolate mountain areas, and finally to the huge glacier area known as the "High Glacier".

Standing Stone Plains is adjacent to the Ajhat Mountains. In addition to the desolate hills, there are also huge caves inhabited by the dangerous Essebeans.

"These Bedai barbarians can occupy a place here. The people standing behind them, no, may not even be human. I'm afraid it's not simple." Imrik lowered his eyes.

The people in the caravan found an open space and sat down to rest, waiting for the sandstorm to come. Generally speaking, the buildings next to this kind of oasis have inns, but the rooms are extremely expensive. One room costs ten gold coins, and even the best ones cost more than 10 gold coins. Ten gold coins is simply beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Imrik grabbed a passing barbarian woman and asked, "Do you have a restaurant open here?"

The barbarian woman smiled and said, "We have a tavern here that provides food."

The black-robed mage nodded. Although the salted fish was delicious, he was tired of it after eating it for so many days. It was better to change the taste.

Arriving at the tavern in the stone castle, Imrik picked up the menu and looked at it. Good guy, there is nothing less than three gold coins.

"Well, bring me a piece of Shalu meat and a glass of sand fruit wine." Imrik ordered two dishes from the waiter next to him. The meat of Shalu was 7 gold coins and the fruit wine was 3 gold coins. The total cost was ten gold coins.

After a while, the food was brought up. Looking at the unknown roasted meat on the plate, Rick couldn't help but move his index finger and took a bite. It was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, with a special smell. aroma.

While Imrik was concentrating on enjoying the food, suddenly, like an earthquake, the wall outside shook, and some dust even fell from the ceiling.

It was obvious that the sandstorm had approached the outside of the stone fortress, and its huge scale even shook the stone fortress.

Suddenly, Imric heard a faint noise coming from outside. He picked up the brocade handkerchief and wiped his mouth, stood up and walked out.

When he returned to the hall, he found that the group of Bedai barbarians had turned against the people in the motorcade. Jerome's face turned red in a rare sight and they started to argue with each other.

Seeing Imrik coming over, Jerome's momentum suddenly suffocated, and he said nonchalantly: "Well, Imrik, I'm sorry, it's all my fault for taking out the endless water bag. These barbarians saw it and wanted to rape me." Buy and sell by force.”

Imrik sighed. He didn't know what to think of the IQ of the paladin. This group of Bedai barbarians obviously relies on the water resources of this oasis to extort money for a living. You come up with a magical weapon that can produce unlimited water resources. Things, can the other party not be greedy for them?

Jerome quickly continued: "Don't worry, I will never let them take your water bag."

Domila also yelled in a rough voice from the side: "You guys are greedy for money. You have already said you won't sell it. What else do you want to do!"

The strong man at the head sneered and said: "In this oasis, there is nothing that I can't say is not for sale. Then don't blame me for robbing it!"

Seeing the other party's shameless remarks, Domira almost fainted with anger. She pulled out the dagger and said bitterly: "Okay, come on, what I hate most is robbers. If you have the ability, try to grab one and see. Can I chop your head off?"

Listening to their noise getting more and more fierce, the decibel level was so high that it hurt the ears. Imrik stepped forward, stared at the strong man and smiled and said: "The water bag is mine."

Although these people in front of him were like chickens and dogs in his eyes, he really didn't want to put in more effort to deal with them, not to mention that he didn't know what was behind them.
