Chapter 245 Spotted Cat Man(2/4)
We control almost all the sea areas from the Sword Coast to the Sword Sea, causing their pirate ships to be immediately devastated once they cross the border.
Not enough merchant ships have been plundered for a long time, causing Luskan's trade share and prosperous black market to begin to shrink, affecting the pocketbook of the Arcane Brotherhood.
So they are planning to launch an attack on us, planning to defeat or even destroy our fleet with the cooperation of mages."
Vanessa didn't hide anything and openly told the ins and outs of the whole thing.
You don't need to ask to know that he is not surprised or surprised at all by the arrival of this day, but that he had expected the result a long time ago.
"Have you been waiting for this day to come for a long time?" Zuo Si asked meaningfully.
The Lich let out a deep hoarse laugh and nodded without hesitation: "Yes. According to my original plan, only by completely capturing Luskan can the organization truly achieve its strategic goal of controlling trade on the west coast of the entire continent.
Especially after Amn discovered the New World, almost all countries and city-states should realize that whoever controls the maritime trade routes will continue to gain wealth.
Therefore, we must strike first to gain strength and seize the initiative.
Use Luskan and Baldur's Gate as the fulcrum on land, and use the Neransir Islands, Korin Islands and Whalebone Islands as the fulcrum on the sea.
Finally, if we unite with the traditional naval power Amn, no one can challenge our rule over this vast sea."
"In that case, let's go ahead and do it. I'm just going to go to Waterdeep City and visit several other important cities in the North to test the attitude of the local rulers."
Zuo Si thought about it for a moment and immediately gave permission to start the war.
On the one hand, it is because the contradiction between the two parties has become irreconcilable, and the matter can only be completely resolved through war.
On the other hand, there are really no decent strong men in the Arcane Brotherhood, and most of the tower masters’ spellcasting levels are only level 12 or 13.
In addition, there is no backing, so according to the current strength of the organization, it is not too difficult to defeat or even destroy it.
"Then I will go back to prepare and wait for your good news."
After saying that, Vanessa put one hand on her chest and bowed, then turned around and prepared to go back to prepare for the war that was about to break out.
But before he could activate the portal, he heard Zuo Si's voice coming from behind him.
"Wait! Take this back with you. It contains some supplies and goods that I brought back from another world. You can sell them through the distribution network of the Nelanthel Islands, and then exchange them for some rare and precious items.
Gems, magic metals and other materials."
"This is... a storage box similar to a dimensional bag?" Lich stared at the slightly old suitcase and asked in an uncertain tone.
"That's right. But it is more terrifying than the capacity of any kind of dimensional bag, and even surpasses some small demiplanes. You can open it and take a look, and then you will understand what I mean." Zuo Si made a request.
Gesture.
Driven by curiosity, Vanessa gently opened the lock on the box.
When the lid was lifted, everyone was dumbfounded.
Because he saw a huge space with several very large warehouses integrated together, densely packed with a series of valuable goods such as sugar, salt, monosodium glutamate, spices, silk, velvet, tea, coffee and so on.
In addition, there are thousands of fine steel ingots that can be used to make weapons and armor.
After a full two or three minutes, the Lich recovered from the shock, pointed at the box and asked: "What on earth is this magic storage device? How does it achieve such a small size?
With such amazing interior space?"
"This is the effect of the Traceless Stretch Spell.
Although the internal space of this box is very large, it is also very unstable.
If it is hit by a spell such as dispel magic, the things inside will fly out instantly.
In addition, unlike the dimensional bag, it can not only contain dead objects, but also living objects.
If you want, you can even load an army into it and then use teleportation magic to take it to an unexpected place to launch a surprise attack."
Zuo Si introduced with a smile.
The box in front of you has already been made into a treasure card, so it will not fail or collapse even if it leaves the influence range of the land card. It is very suitable as a strategic transportation tool.
"Used to house the army?"
Vanessa's eyes shone with a strange light, and her whole body seemed to have opened the door to a new world in an instant.
Zuo Si nodded slightly: "Yes. Whether it is an army composed of living creatures, an army composed of constructs or the undead, they can all be stuffed in. With the internal capacity of this suitcase, it should be able to carry up to several
There are as many as ten thousand people. Just imagine, if a large army suddenly appears in the enemy's hinterland or rear area, what impact will it have on the battle situation?"
"Hahahaha! Great! It's great! This is simply the most incredible magic item I have ever seen in my life. With it, ships and troops under the control of the organization can appear anywhere at any time. Don't worry, Your Excellency.
I promise to make good use of it."
After saying this, Vanessa put one hand on her chest and bowed, then picked up the box, activated the portal and disappeared without a trace.
You must know that large-scale teleportation of troops has always been a problem that has plagued many countries and city-states in Feilu Continent.
Excluding the extinct civilization of Netheril and the Empire of Imaskar, there may only be the elves on the Evergathering Island, Sere ruled by the red-robed wizards, or the country of wizards, Halrua.
Only with such technology and strength.
But Zuo Si could accomplish this feat in a simpler and cheaper way by just using a box blessed with a traceless stretching spell.
At that time, as long as the mage who masters teleportation magic brings a box full of soldiers and teleports to a designated location, the transfer of thousands of troops can be completed.
Of course, this convenience also brings a certain degree of risk.
For example, once a mage carrying a box is intercepted by the enemy, the entire army may be wiped out.
But overall, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, and it is a very practical thing.
After sending Vanessa away, Zuo Si immediately walked around the mage tower.
First, I went to visit the young werewolves who were training, and then went to the underground dragon lair to use evil magic rituals to help Wilmes transform several red dragon eggs into part of his own power.
By the time the ceremony was over, this evil female red dragon had obviously grown in size again, and it seemed that it already had a size and spell-like abilities close to those of an elderly red dragon.
Especially the deadly flame breath, which can even melt large rocks into hot lava with one bite.
"Hahaha! This power! This feeling! It's really unparalleled!"
Wilmes grinned and laughed unbridled.
The strong dragon power instantly scared the surrounding goblins and kobold servants to the point where they knelt on the ground and trembled.
Even those half-dragon creatures that were still probing their heads before got into their own caves and hid.
In the huge maze at the lower level of the mage tower, Wilmes is the undisputed tyrant here, and no other creature dares to defy her will.
Seeing this guy getting carried away, Zuo Si had to remind him: "When you have free time, you'd better practice your spell-casting ability and melee combat skills, and don't rely too much on this kind of overly simple and crude power accumulation. Otherwise, even if you are
Even if you grow to the level of an ancient dragon, you won't be able to compete with those real dragon kings."
"You don't need to tell me that I know this. In fact, every once in a while I go to fight with Ashtelance and use her to sharpen my teeth and claws."
When he said this, Wilmes's eyes flashed with naked and undisguised cruelty.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Treating this kindred spirit, she almost brought out the cruelty in her bones to the extreme.
The poor female dragon had scars visible to the naked eye all over her body. Not only did she have to breed dragon eggs for her, but she was also beaten and humiliated as a sandbag every now and then.
"Ashtelance still has the courage to resist you?" Zuo Si raised his eyebrows in surprise.
You must know that the size of the two red dragons is now two to three orders of magnitude different.
At first glance, Wilmes is obviously several times bigger than his opponent.
When the flame breath can't cause any damage, the civil war between the red dragons is purely hand-to-hand combat. There are basically no fancy skills at all. It's all a head-on collision of forces.
Ashteranse would be thrown to the ground even if he met her, without even a chance to get up.
"Hmph! Do you think she still has a choice? I hope her resistance can be more intense, which will make me more excited during the battle."
At this moment, Wilmes' attitude and tone are like the male protagonist in a 18-ban movie.
I don’t know why, but her personality, thoughts and behavior are not like a female at all, but are closer to a male dragon.
"Okay, then you can slowly play the little game of imprisonment and training with Ashtelance. I have other things to do, so I won't chat with you here. Remember to pay more attention to the excavation progress of the goblins.
If you find a tunnel leading to the Dark Area, please inform me immediately." Zuo Si specially warned before leaving.
As the goblins dig deeper and deeper underground, it is only a matter of time before they open up the Underdark.
At that time, some targeted arrangements must be made to prevent those dangerous races and creatures from rushing to the surface to burn, kill and loot.
You must know that Askatra is not a deep water city, and there are not so many high-level mages and voters sitting there.
Although the Masked Mage Guild is somewhat powerful, it obviously doesn't have much advantage when dealing with creatures like dark elves, gray dwarves, mind flayers, and beholders, and it doesn't have much experience in dealing with them.
"Don't worry. No matter what comes out of the ground, I promise to tear it into pieces. What's more, you have made so many dead-eye tyrants before. Plus countless undead cannon fodder and goblin werewolves, even if there is a dark
The elven army can't even think of rushing to the surface." Wilmes nonchalantly blew out a ball of sparks from his nostrils.
In her opinion, the protective power of this mage tower and the huge underground maze is absolutely indestructible, and there is no need to be so cautious.
"Don't be careless. There are too many terrifying powers in this world that are beyond imagination. I don't want to come back one day and see the Mage Tower and this city in ruins." Zuo Si rolled his eyes angrily.
"Okay, don't be nagging, I understand."
Wilmes yawned impatiently.
