William looked up at the arch wall of the portal, and saw a strange colorful relief appearing on the originally glorious stone wall.

This relief has a very special shape. One half of it is a beautiful angel shape, with a sacred wing, half a pure face and glorious skin, while the other half of the body shows an ugly side, tawny.

Hard-skinned skin, ferocious claws, a ferocious half of the face, and a twisted bat wing. These two forms that represent different extremes are actually almost perfectly combined to form a twisted existence.

William looked up at the almost alive relief on the buttress and asked, "Is it you who is speaking?"

"Yes." Futuo said with a sad face: "Save me! Kind-hearted person, I was abandoned by my mother as soon as I was born, but my father tortured and killed me even more cruelly, and made me

There is no relief from eternal suffering.”

William asked thoughtfully: "You said you are a desperate soul, do you have any proof?"

When Futuo heard this question, he couldn't help being stunned. How could he prove that he was a desperate soul? This was a bit difficult for him.

The old mage and several people nearby were also choked by William's question. They thought that with William's temperament, after hearing the frivolous complaint, they would not stand idly by, but who would have thought that he actually acted contrary to common sense.

The Futu was silent for a while and said again: "Human, I don't know how to prove myself, but I can tell you my past. My mother is a Valkyrie in the heaven. She has a prominent reputation and peerless talent.

She was beautiful, but in a battle between good and evil, she was unfortunately defeated and captured by an evil demon lord. The demon lord raped her, and then I was born.

I have faced misfortune since I was born. My mother refused to nurture me and denied my real name. She called me Caius Dunst, which means twisted chaos..."

The relief Katherine Stunt tells the story of her tragic past in an emotionless tone, as if she is not telling the story of herself, but of an unrelated passer-by.

Of course, the experience of the daughter of the angry Lord Kostchich was indeed very tragic, which made people feel very uncomfortable after hearing it. William was also willing to shed a few sad tears for her, but that was all.

To put it bluntly, this poor man is an unfortunate derivative of war and hatred. Similar situations are not only found in Faerûn, but also in William's previous life, an era known for its "humanity and charity".

It's just that the situation of this child of an angel and a demon is a bit more special.

William said: "Poor friend, I sympathize with your misfortune. But I don't know how to save you. Maybe you should find other more capable people for help instead of looking for me, an ordinary mortal."

However, Floating Caius screamed: "It's you! It's you! They all said that you are the only one who can redeem me,... you won't lie to me!"

William couldn't help but narrowed his eyes and asked in a serious voice: "Who? Who said I can save you?"

Kaeus covered her face with both hands and pretended to cry: "No! I can't say it! I promise not to betray the identity of the person who pointed me out to anyone. But I can't lie to you either.

. Kind people, I can’t say that.”

Of course, Fu Fiao couldn't really cry, she was just pretending.

William had no intention of embarrassing Caius. He looked back at the old mage and Brünnhilde and said, "Tell me who gave her the idea."

The old mage looked at William's almost cannibalistic eyes and said a little ashamedly: "It's not me. Although I also sympathize with this poor soul, I won't let you completely offend a real devil because of her.

Lord."

Yin Erminster indeed thought so. The soul in front of him was a part of the devil no matter what. The devil's solution to the devil's affairs had nothing to do with him, the Archmage of Faerun. Faerun was already in chaos, and he didn't want to use his anger anymore.

The master's attention was drawn to his hometown.

Brünnhilde responded without any shame: "That's what I said! William, this child has been a tragedy since birth. Although her bloodline inherited from heaven has been contaminated by evil, it is still part of heaven.

She should not have to suffer this tragic eternal fate. And ever since she abandoned this child, Jersi Kogul has been troubled by regret. She should not have abandoned this poor child."

William sneered and said: "To be honest, don't talk to me with such nonsense!"

Vulgar! Brünnhilde glanced at William, then took a deep breath and said: "Kaius's soul has both the sacred characteristics of the heavens and the chaotic essence of the abyss. She (was sacrificed here)

The existence of the portal makes this portal connecting Joseph Garden and the Abyss indestructible.

Joseph Garden cannot close the portal from the other side, and can only passively suffer attacks from the angry lord day after day. So far, countless residents of Joseph Garden have been killed by the brutal angry army.

It is the duty of every heavenly warrior to eliminate the threat of this portal. As a Valkyrie, since I stand in front of this portal, how can I turn a blind eye.

William, you are a kind warrior, and you have the ability of cursed fire that can remove the portal formation. If you can help Heaven remove this source that threatens the safety of Joseph Garden, the Legion of Heroic Spirits in Joseph Garden will be very happy.

I am happy to establish an alliance with you."

Before William could respond, the relief on the buttress almost collapsed and screamed: "No! No! No! Caius didn't say! Caius didn't betray the kind-hearted people! The kind-hearted people already knew it.

Good-hearted people, it was not Caius who told the secret! Caius was not the informer! Mom! Don’t abandon Caius! Caius did not tell the secret! Woo woo woo!..."

William raised his head and glanced at Futu again. Only then did he realize that this poor soul was not normal. She was actually a lunatic with impaired sanity, a poor creature whose sanity had indeed been destroyed by despair.

William sighed and said: "Brünnhilde, if you don't know how to act, don't teach others how to talk. Sometimes talking too much can easily backfire."

William's words were what he said when Caius of the Floating Sea stopped him earlier. Those words were obviously not words that a mentally disturbed soul could say.

"How can I save this poor soul?" William asked.

Brünnhilde and the old mage looked at each other, and the old mage said: "This poor soul has been sacrificed to the existence in the dark world. Her essence no longer belongs to this world, and she has a trace of immortality.

, so it cannot be destroyed by conventional means, including those destructive spells.

Even this portal is indestructible because it is related to the essence of this immortal soul. In a sense, this portal is equivalent to a real artifact.

We can't destroy the artifact here, but we can take her away, take away the part of the portal that is connected to Kaiosi's soul, and then find another way to destroy it, so that Kaiosi's soul can escape.

The shackles of the portal.

Of course, this depends on William using curse fire to temporarily eliminate the stability of this portal, and then we can move it."

Cursed fire is the most primitive power in the world. It can even affect the stability of artifacts. It is naturally possible to deal with a portal that is similar to an artifact. However, William always felt that the old mage and others were hiding something from him.

In fact, for William, helping Caius escape from eternal pain was more important to him than removing the source of the threat to Joseph Garden.

Therefore, he pointed at Futuo, who had been muttering to himself, and asked: "Will this free this poor soul?"

The old mage sighed and said: "Every time the portal is opened, it is a tear to Caius's soul, which is a spiritual pain that can destroy any soul.

Under normal circumstances, all it would take was a large-scale teleportation, and Kaiosi's soul would be torn into two different essences, transforming into a pair of good and evil twins.

And this was also the excuse the demon lord used to trick the original Caius into accepting sacrifice."

At this time, Kaiosi suddenly interjected: "Dad said that as long as Kaiosi is obedient, he will make Kaiosi become what her mother likes, so that her mother will come back to accept Kaiosi."

The old mage looked at William's calm and incomprehensible expression, and continued: "But the sacrifice caused Kayes's soul to be immortal. Every time her soul was torn apart, it would recover again, and she could not escape the intact state.

The state of being sacrificed.

Unless a way can be found to undo the sacrifice, or to wrest the ownership of Caius's soul from the existence in the underworld, she will still not be truly redeemed, and her soul will not be able to return to the Sea of ​​Souls.

"

William asked: "What can you do?"

The old mage shook his head and said: "I haven't. But I think you have, because you have changed the ownership of your soul, more than once."

William wanted to say, I have an idea. But in the end, he kept his mouth shut and did not say it out loud. Instead, he thought about it silently for a while, and then asked: "What should we do when we get home?"

The old mage said: "This teleportation gate can normally open an absolutely safe fixed-point coordinate teleportation once a day. Of course, it can also open several unstable plane teleportations with the destination of Joseph Garden. However, today's fixed-point teleportation has been used. If

William, if you want to take everyone back to Faerun safely, it is best to wait until the portal is restored tomorrow before leaving."

The daily wait is actually the recovery period after Kaiosi's soul was torn apart.

William nodded and said: "Then we'll leave tomorrow. But we have harvested a lot of loot in the abyss frost giant's town, and we need your help to open the demiplane for transporting supplies."

The old mage said happily: "I'm happy to help."

In this way, the problem on the portal side was temporarily solved. William, the old mage and others returned to the town of Utgard, where mountains of loot were waiting for them to deal with.

But Brünnhilde did not go back. Accompanied by another shrill scream from Floating Caius, she went to Joseph's Garden through the portal.

The storage demiplane of Ka'e Yin is an extremely large ice peak platform, its area is comparable to that of a medium-sized city, and it is easy to carry the loot of Utgard Town. With the help of the old mage, it can be activated.

William and the others still spent a whole day before barely carrying the more valuable harvest.

If it weren't for William's sudden return, they would have to dig into the ground of this Abyss Frost Giant town. After all, any objects in the Abyss can be brought to the main material plane. Basically, they are all relatively valuable aliens.

thing.

Of course, the premise is that you can bring it back. For other planes, the abyss is a world that only eats and does not eat. The demons will try their best to prevent any creature from taking the materials belonging to the abyss out of the abyss. And those essences have not been absorbed by the abyss.

The alien creatures infected by the power can leave smoothly, but of course, they are more likely to be made trouble by the demons guarding the portal.

The souls infected by the power of demons can freely leave the abyss, because their destination has been destined to belong to the abyss, but their bodies cannot leave, and the bodies they use outside the abyss are the powers of the abyss infecting the outside.

Substitutes for the material reorganization of the world.

It can be said that every invasion of the Abyss army, whether successful or failed, is a territorial expansion of the Abyss. Only hell does not eat the overbearing laws of the abyss. This is also compared to the opposite heaven.

The reason why Abyss hates Baator Hell even more.

It is said that just when William was carrying the loot from Utgard Town to the demiplane of Ka'oyin, all the demons in the entire frozen ruins received a hint from the dark side. In the direction of Utgard Town,

There are all demonic creatures that must be eradicated.

In fact, this is the feedback from the will of the Abyss to William's stealing of the Abyss' materials.

Not only the real demonic creatures, but also everyone around William, when night fell, everyone felt the inexplicable whisper.

Catch the person who stole the supplies, seize the demiplane of Kae Yin, and then obtain the rich rewards of the will of the abyss. This is the bewitching word that comes to mind in everyone's heart.

Unfortunately, everyone under William was involved in the transportation of the loot, which made everyone a thief in the eyes of the abyss, and the so-called bewitching words became a joke.

After all, no matter how stupid a person is, he will not trade his own life for the so-called "reward of the will of the abyss."

Of course, it was not without serious impact. Some cubs from the frost giant tribe who came from the frozen ruins had lived here for a long time, and their bodies and souls were inevitably infected by the power of the abyss. Their "betrayal" of the abyss was naturally also affected.

This incurs punishment. As long as they stay within the radiation range of the will of the abyss, these children will become extremely weak.

But this doesn't really bother William. Although the temperature in the flame world makes the frost giants feel uncomfortable, it is at least much better than these children being tortured by the will of the abyss.

The next day, when William and his entourage led the lightly-armed Frost Giant Cubs to Stoddett's Gate, flying demons began to appear in the surrounding sky one after another. They were almost like moths rushing to the fire, and they were attracted by the abyss.
