Chapter 743 You are the lucky one chosen(1/4)
Tifanton, an important border town on the northern border of the Kingdom of Cormyr in the Lun Continent, has now completely broken away from the influence of the Shadow Plane and returned to the material world.
To be precise, since the ancient artifact was absorbed by Greia, the darkness that enveloped this area quickly dissipated, and most of the shadow creatures were wiped out under the bright and hot sunlight.
Only a handful of powerful creatures that could withstand sunlight, such as Shadow Dragons, Shadow Kings, and high-level shadows, were able to successfully escape into houses or sewers and escape.
However, their survival did not last long before they were all captured by the returning Prince of Darkness.
In the face of the purest power of darkness and nothingness that came from the birth of the crystal wall where the planet Toril is located, no matter how powerful the shadow creature is, it can only remain silent and kneel on the ground to express surrender to the young new master, unable to raise it at all.
A shred of will to resist.
After solving the most troublesome shadow plane creatures, the remaining remnants placed in the city like the Zhentarim and the City of Shadows didn't matter at all, and were killed all at once.
Those civilians who were lucky enough not to die naturally went back to their homes, and the army of the Kingdom of Cormyr to counter the rebellion was also officially stationed to guard against possible threats from the Ainook Desert.
Since the entire Tifandun was sent up into the air by the powerful power of the Shadow Web, becoming a floating city that only Greia could control, he set up a portal on the ground that was linked to the Shadow Plane.
In this way, whether they are civilians or businessmen, they only need to travel in the shadow plane for a few seconds to quickly enter and exit.
If the enemy wants to use this portal to launch an attack, the Prince of Darkness only needs a thought to make them completely lost in the shadow plane and torn into pieces by various terrifying shadow creatures.
Especially the spire that suddenly rises from the ground in the center of the city is completely shrouded in darkness no matter day or night. Just looking at it will make people feel inexplicable fear.
This spire is the temporary residence that Grea built for herself, and it is also the center of Tifantun's rule.
After finishing his conquest and sweep of the entire Kingdom of Cormyr, he did not immediately return to the capital Susar to greet the flowers, applause and triumphal ceremony prepared by his mother. Instead, he chose to stay to digest the power he had gained and learn how to use the brigade.
Magical abilities granted by the mage's spark.
What's more, Grea knew very well that after he killed a ghost prince, Telamante would definitely not give up and would have to inflict an unbearable heavy blow to the opponent in the war.
Right now, he is preparing for this upcoming war.
"Your Highness, according to your instructions, we have secretly buried those things on the ground around the city."
The female officer knelt down on one knee and reported to the prince to whom she had sworn allegiance.
At this moment, she was no longer a mere human being, but her whole body was shrouded in darkness and shadow that could not be described in words.
Anyone who has seen the half-life, half-shadow residents of the City of Shadows can easily tell that this woman has been transformed into a similar form under the influence of powerful magical power.
It's just that she goes one step further than the ghost form, and is closely integrated with the shadow magic network of Shar, the goddess of the night.
In other words, in addition to retaining her warrior abilities, she is also a natural spellcaster similar to a warlock.
The most important thing is that this woman named Corinna has been made into the first follower card by the Dark Prince who became a planeswalker, so her loyalty is unquestionable and she has no fear of death.
Greia nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, keep your people on guard, because I can feel that the City of Shadows will definitely choose to fight undeclared. By the way, Elminster, Storm Silverhand and those harps
Haven’t the top management left yet?”
"No.
They want to talk to you in person.
Elminster, in particular, was clearly aware of the overwhelming dominance of the Shadow Network in this area.
As a voter of the Goddess of Magic, this is obviously not the result he wants to see.
Moreover, the previous overt and covert battles between Shade City and Zhentil Castle, as well as the internal changes in the Kingdom of Cormyr, have also seriously threatened the security of the valley.
With Elminster’s character, he will definitely want to test your attitude.”
Corinna expressed her judgment in one breath.
It is different from the legendary love that everyone meets.
In fact, Elminster, the great sage of Shadow Valley, is not very popular in many places, and the neighboring Kingdom of Cormyr happens to be one of them.
In particular, the war mage organization loyal to the royal family scorned the first choice of the goddess of magic.
In comparison, Lyra and Kelben of Waterdeep City are more respected.
"snort!
My father said that Elminster was just a conservative, nosy and arrogant old stubborn man.
He always thought that he was right and was helping the world maintain some kind of balance.
But in fact, he has not even done his most important duty as a voter - to promote magic. He has been advocating using magic as little as possible all day long.
If all spellcasters become like this, then what is the point of learning and researching magic?
The correct way to use magic should be like what my father did, so that as many people as possible can enjoy the convenience it brings."
When saying these words, the Dark Prince's tone was full of naked and undisguised contempt.
To be precise, there is no way that Elminster's outdated and absurd ideas will be popular with young people.
Let alone a young man, even a spell caster with a little bit of ambition and intellectual curiosity doesn't think highly of him.
Corinna nodded with deep approval: "You are right. Elminster has lived for too long, and his behavior has long been unable to adapt to the changes in the current situation. But you just do it.
He is not a solution either."
But Greia curled her lips indifferently: "It doesn't matter, just let it dry for now.
Anyway, I don't have time to waste time on them now.
Also, remember to warn the senior Harpers that if they dare to plant spies in Tiffanytown, they will kill anyone who participates.
Even Elminster and Storm Silverhand are no exception.
I am not a father, nor am I the chosen one of the Magic Goddess, so I will not pamper them."
As these murderous words blurted out, the Prince of Darkness slowly stood up from his seat, his whole body exuding cold enough to freeze everything and a void that swallowed everything.
The biggest difference between him and Zuo Si is that they are ruthless and don't talk much. When they have murderous intentions, they will take immediate action in the next second.
Whether it is the Prince of Shadows or the Great Sage of Shadow Valley, there is essentially no difference.
"As you wish..."
Corinna lowered her head deeply, not daring to look into her master's eyes that were like black holes.
Just as she stood up to leave, she suddenly heard Greya's voice from behind.
"Wait! I asked you to send someone to deliver a message to the undead Owo. Is there no response yet?"
Corinna quickly turned around and responded: "No, the great arcanist has already responded, saying that he is ready to cooperate with you at any time to teach Telamante an impressive lesson."
Hearing this sentence, the Prince of Darkness immediately understood the subtext that the other party wanted to express. He pursed his lips and said with a smile: "In that case, let's set a small goal first, which is to kill at least three people in this war.
Two-thirds of the Prince of Shadows made the City of Shadows understand who is the real master of darkness. Compared with me, their ridiculous shadow magic is nothing more than a clown's sideshow."
The words have not yet been spoken!
In the darkness at the top of the tower, thousands of dim flames emitting gray suddenly appeared.
Graia raised her right hand and gathered all the flames into her palm to slowly shape a raven.
In the flames burning within the raven's body, one can vaguely see the painful soul of Ramolek Tanshur that has been distorted beyond recognition.
…
At the same time, far away in the hall of Ghost City over the Shadow Sea, a super artificial lake in the Eno Oak Desert.
The Supreme City Lord Telamante was sitting on his throne, staring at his deputies and sons with a livid face. After a while, he spoke in a slightly lower voice: "I have personally confirmed it just now.
, Lamorake is dead, and even his soul has been imprisoned or destroyed. No magic or even wish magic can revive him."
"What? How dare that guy! He is simply declaring war on us!"
Melegant roared with rage after a brief shock.
Because among all the ghost princes, he has the best relationship with Ramolek.
When he learned that the latter was killed and was not resurrected in the clone's body, he vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
But who would have thought that even his omnipotent father could not revive him.
The emotion of anger mixed with fear greatly shocked this guy's heart.
After all, the power of Yinhun City lies in the fact that the Yinhun Prince and a group of high-level and even legendary mages have secretly prepared more than one method of resurrection for themselves.
This means that even if they encounter a powerful enemy and are accidentally killed, they can quickly resurrect and report the opponent's information and intelligence to the Supreme City Lord Telamant, and then summon more powerful mages to formulate a plan to join forces to defeat them.
The enemy was strangled.
But now, someone can actually make all these resurrection methods ineffective, which will inevitably cause panic.
"Father, what are you still hesitating about?
If the other party dares to kill Lamorec this time, he will dare to kill any of us next time.
Whether it is to regain Lamorak's soul or to eliminate the hidden danger once and for all, we should immediately find a way to get rid of the Dark Prince Graia.
After all, he has shown enough hostility towards the City of Shadows and is an out-and-out enemy."
Mattik, the only twin in the Prince of Shadows, stood up and expressed his attitude.
His twin brother Vatik also echoed: "That's right. It's time to launch a war to let everyone know the details of the last floating city in Netheril. Isn't it just a newly born divine power? We
You can definitely use that trump card to kill him."
