As we all know, hell flame breath is the most dangerous and deadly type of all hell flames.
Generally speaking, only the Abyss Demons, who are at the top of the strict pyramid-shaped power structure of Baator Hell, and the Dukes of Hell and even the plane lords who are higher than the Abyss Demons, can gain the power to control and use it.
So usually if you see someone using Hell Flame Breath in a battle, you can basically determine that this guy is either a big devil in disguise, or he has made some deal with the big devil, or he is simply a high-level member of the big devil.
Believers and the elect.
As a legendary demilich with lv3 spellcasting level, Kangas has been sealed for hundreds or even thousands of years, but his knowledge reserve is not bad at all.
With just one glance, he was able to identify the hell flame breath attached to the sword by Succubus Loli, as well as the power that represented the ultimate evil law of Baator Hell.
As a guy whose alignment is chaotic evil, Kangas obviously doesn't like the devil who tends to be lawful at all, and he tries to capture the opponent's soul without saying a word.
It turned out that it was blocked by an invisible layer of magical protection.
This undoubtedly made him more convinced that these people were here for him, so he successfully released the nine-ring conjuration system magic [Alien
Gate】.
In the blink of an eye, a huge portal opened out of thin air.
Immediately afterwards, a Balor Balrog from the bottomless abyss appeared out of thin air, waving the decapitating giant sword and flaming whip in his hand and letting out a deafening roar.
Obviously, the function of the perfect automatic stasis spell is to allow the demilich to completely eliminate all spell-casting actions when casting known spells.
Coupled with the silent casting of spells, it is basically possible to secretly complete spell preparations without anyone noticing.
After all, demilichs often have only one skull left in their entire body, and they have no hands to perform complex spell-casting movements. They can only coordinate through their souls, and then master this special spell-casting technique.
I have to say that this move is indeed quite insidious, and can even be hidden from the perception of many great mages.
Coupled with the deep and irresolvable hatred between demons and demons due to the bloody battle, as soon as the Balor Demon appeared, he locked on the succubus Loli not far away and roared in Abyssal: "Damn traitor!
Bitch who betrayed the will of the great abyss! I will tear you into pieces!"
"Stop talking nonsense! If you have the ability, come over and see who rips who apart!"
The succubus loli directly tore off the disguise of a charming and cute lady, showing her ferocious, bloodthirsty and aggressive side.
In fact, this is her truest side.
After all, a lower-plane creature that maintains its existence by absorbing the lives and magical energy of others is basically 100% sure to be extremely evil.
It's just that after staying with Zuo Si for a long time, this little guy inevitably picked up some special hobbies and habits.
For example, in front of others, they always like to pretend that they are harmless and lovable, but only when enjoying prey that they are interested in will they reveal their evil thoughts and nature.
The devil's nature is chaotic, impulsive and arbitrary.
If it were a devil hearing these words, he might test it carefully before deciding what strategy to adopt.
However, the Balor Balrog summoned by [Gate to Another World] was just the opposite. He directly raised the decapitating sword and rushed over, intending to chop this succubus who had taken refuge in his mortal enemy Hell Devil into pieces.
If you don’t accept it, do it!
This is the most typical demonic behavior pattern.
No matter what the strategy or tactics are, they will roll as far as they go. What I pursue is happiness.
When their reason is occupied by strong impulses, they never consider the consequences.
What's more, the other party is just a little succubus, and in the abyss, he often becomes a tool used by the strong to vent their desires.
Ever since the succubus Queen Mecanshut took Shendiravel, the 570th layer of the abyss, to join the forces of hell, the status of the remaining succubi has plummeted.
Now, he is basically either a commander who controls the cannon fodder of low-level demons, or he is reduced to the mother body that breeds a new generation of demons.
It's a pity that this Balor Demon obviously doesn't know that Atona is not an ordinary succubus, but an advanced experimental product that Zuo Si used to figure out the relationship between faith and believers.
The moment he was confident enough to complete the beheading with one blow, the latter turned into an afterimage and disappeared.
Martial skills - increased abilities!
Martial Arts - Water Acceleration!
Martial Arts——Blast Break!
Martial Arts——Instant Reflection!
Martial Arts——Four-light Continuous Slash!
Balor Balor didn't even react to what happened, and his hard skin burst open instantly, and blood spewed out like a fountain.
Through the slightly dim light in the cellar, one can vaguely see that four deep wounds with bone visible were cut open on his strong and tall chest.
What's even more terrible is that the power that symbolizes law is constantly invading the body along the wound, causing unimaginable huge trauma to its chaotic nature.
"Ahhhhh!!!!!!!!!"
The severe pain caused the Balor Balrog to go crazy, raising his hands to try to release spell-like abilities or summon other demons to help.
But unfortunately, Succubus Loli didn't give the opponent even a little time to react after succeeding in the attack. She turned around and used one of her trump cards [Breaking Chaos Slash].
In an instant!
Powerful lawful power is attached to the blade, emitting a dazzling light.
Immediately afterwards, she turned into an afterimage again, swung the decapitating sword in her hand to kill with one blow.
Boom!!!!!!!!!
Accompanied by violent explosions and fire, the entire body of the Balor Balrog exploded instantly.
You don’t need to ask to know that this is the [Burning Explosion] effect triggered when you die, half of which is fire damage and half of which is evil damage.
But the succubus Loli was unscathed by the protection of the hell flame breath and magic armor, and slowly walked out of the flames.
Upon seeing this, Kangas didn't even dare to hesitate for a second, and immediately released the legendary magic he had prepared in the minute that Balor Balor had fought for.
In the blink of an eye, a white snowball exuding a biting chill appeared out of thin air, flew straight to the location of the succubus loli, and then suddenly exploded with a bang.
Countless tiny ice and snow particles enveloped everything within a six-meter radius at an unimaginable speed.
The ultra-low temperature that cannot be described in words extinguished all the flames created by the Balor Balrog [Burning Body Explosion] on the spot. Even the hell flame breath from the deepest part of the Baator Hell became dying, as if it would be completely destroyed in the next second.
Extinguish.
As for the succubus Lolita, her whole body was covered with a thick layer of frost, and her whole body was frozen in place like an ice sculpture.
The ambient temperature in the cellar has changed from the uncomfortable high temperature just now to the extreme cold now.
Imoen, Sancho and Viconia, who were so cold that they were outside the range of the spell, had stiff hands and feet, unable to perform precise and complex spell-casting movements.
Minsk, who fell into a coma under the influence of the spell, was even worse. He was killed by the biting cold air on the spot, and his body was transformed into a zombie.
This is an undead creature that is somewhere between a ghoul and a ghost, and can take away life force just by touching it.
However, he is obviously a subspecies from cold areas. He looks similar to the White Walkers in the world of A Song of Ice and Fire. His real scientific name is also called White Walkers. He has pale skin and ice-blue eyes. When touched,
Can cause decent additional cold damage.
In addition, all zombies have the ability to create derivatives.
Any living person killed by them will turn into a weaker corpse demon in a very short period of time.
Obviously, the function of this legendary magic is to first create a large amount of cold damage to kill the target, and then transform the killed person into an undead undead such as a corpse demon as a servant.
"The chosen ones of the Great Devil? That's all! Now, are you ready to bid farewell to this world completely?"
Seeing that the succubus Loli had been controlled by the legendary magic and seemed to have lost her fighting ability, Kangas' tone became arrogant again.
He could clearly observe that the last three people in the team were shivering with cold, their limbs and fingers were stiff, and it was obviously very difficult to cast a spell.
"No! Lich, this game is not over yet."
Sancho instantly activated the magic storage ring in his hand, and aimed at the frozen Succubus Lolita with a seven-ring [Delayed Explosion Fireball].
Boom!!!!!
Along with the explosion, fire and deafening sound, the ice covering the latter's body melted instantly, and the whole person regained his ability to move in a very short time. He raised his hand and hacked to death the corpse demon that rushed towards him.
And due to the protection of the hell flame breath, Atona did not suffer even a little bit of damage. Instead, she used the power of her wings to jump high and once again launched the [Breaking Chaos Slash] which contained powerful order power.
Kangas couldn't dodge, and instantly he was struck by the sharp sword that was shining with dazzling magic light. The whole golden skull flew sideways and hit the stone wall behind.
Although this blow failed to kill the demilich due to its strong physical and magical resistance, especially its incredibly terrifying hardness, it did leave a very obvious crack in the Tianling Cap.
Just when the succubus loli was about to pursue the victory, a strange magic wave suddenly emerged from the golden skull.
The next second...
The magic that had wiped away all the protective spells on Sancho's body resurfaced again, dispelling all of Atona's protective and strengthening spells on the spot.
The succubus Loli instantly sensed the danger, and immediately cast the four-ring divine spell [Death-proof Barrier], and then rushed out like an arrow from a string.
When the distance between the two sides was once again close to face to face, Kangas relied on his ultra-high spellcasting level and nine-level spell slots to take the lead in using the spell prompt to successfully release the nine-level [Confinement Technique].
As a result, when the beheading sword was less than one centimeter away from the golden skull, the succubus Loli fell into a quiescent state under the influence of the spell and disappeared on the spot, and was forcibly sealed.
This is a very typical mage tactic.
For a mage who masters nine-ring spells, what should he do if he encounters a more dangerous enemy that may pose a huge threat to him?
The answer is to use confinement to lock up this threat first, then deal with other enemies first, and then slowly consider countermeasures.
You can wait until you become stronger and come back to take revenge, or you can plant a large number of traps around you, so that the opponent will suffer a huge amount of damage and die instantly when they are released.
If the idea of power wall, fire wall, ice wall, and iridescent magic is to cut the battlefield and then implement strategies to defeat the enemy, then magic such as confinement and labyrinth is to close a small dark room and directly physically isolate it.
It's just that the maze technique is a fixed-term prison sentence. As long as you can find an exit in the huge maze, you can escape, but the confinement technique is a life sentence.
If there are no rescuers from the outside, the time of the imprisoned person will always stop at the moment of being imprisoned.
Anyone with a discerning eye can now see that with Succubus Loli being imprisoned, the remaining three members of the team will face overwhelming disadvantages.
What's even worse is that Aberdare, who transformed into a killer, just recovered his center of gravity and balance and rushed towards Imoen and Sancho again.
Due to the influence of primitive instinct and the blood of the God of Killing, he obviously wanted to kill the other two brothers and sisters at this moment, and then seize their divine power and divinity.
At this critical moment, Viconia decisively picked up the shield and pushed forward.
But just tenths of a second later, she was knocked back by the huge force and almost sat on the ground.
There is no way, the dark elf is not known for her strength in the first place, not to mention that she is only a priest, even with the blessing of divine magic, she cannot be compared to a human warrior.
In addition, Aberdare's body size has obviously increased by more than one circle since he transformed into a killer. The two sides are not of the same magnitude at all.
"Damn it! Think of a way! I won't last long!"
Viconia yelled and cursed angrily, blurting out all kinds of swear words from her hometown.
You must know that the curse words of the dark elves are unique in the continent of Faerûn, and have even risen to the level of art.
Any intelligent creature that can understand this kind of language will find it difficult not to be infuriated by those words with profound meanings.
Fortunately, neither Sancho nor Imoen can understand Dark Elf, so they seem to be in relatively stable moods.
Of course, even if they understood, they would not care about Viconia's bad mouth at the moment.
After all, the demilich floating in the air started chanting the spell again.
Compared to the huge threat he posed, Aberdare, who lost his mind and acted on instinct, was nothing at all.
Ever since, the two mages, Imoen and Sancho, began to join forces to have a rather exciting spell showdown with Kangas.
Due to the two-on-one relationship, the two sides counterattacked each other until no one could successfully release even a single spell.
It was not until the later use of instant spells, scrolls and magic items that this situation was finally broken.
However, due to the lower spellcasting level and fewer spell slots, when the high-level spell slots were consumed one after another, leaving only spell slots below the fourth level, the two Sons of Baal finally began to be unable to hold on.<
/p>
Because spells below the fifth level are difficult to pose a fatal threat to the demilich with extremely high magic resistance, even if it hits it, it will be like scratching an itch.
Moreover, the opponent seems to be wearing equipment that can continuously restore vitality, so many minor injuries can be restored to the original state even if they are ignored.
As for Viconia, she is still trying her best to block Aberdare's mad dog-like attacks, and how can she find time to release high-level magic.
If you are distracted even a little bit, the strong magic armor on your body will be torn open by the killer into a bloody wound.
You don’t need to ask to know that at this point the battle is basically at the end of its rope.
At this moment, Sancho realized what mistake he had made by bringing Aberdare and Minsk into the team.
In a battle with a legendary spellcaster, any tiny flaw will eventually turn into a fatal flaw.
If Aberdare, who had transformed into a killer, had not caused trouble, although his chances of winning this battle would not have been 100%, he would never have had his hips stretched to the extent it is now.
Just as Kangas's unbridled laughter echoed throughout the cellar, a portal suddenly opened out of thin air, followed by Zuo Si and two lichs dressed in retro clothes who came from the other side.
Instantly!
Whether it was Imo, Sancho, or Viconia, who was fighting Aberdare to the death, they all showed expressions of ecstasy.
As for Kangas, the moment he saw the two lichs, he immediately stopped all actions.
Although he could not make any expression at all with only a golden skull left, you could still detect that this guy was obviously very nervous through some movements.
The reason is very simple!
The two retro-dressed lichs beside Zuo Si were the legendary mages who participated in the sealing and were responsible for keeping the golden skeleton.
The two of them belong to a very ancient secret spellcasting organization that has long disappeared in the long history of history - Nisriel. The hatred between the two parties has long reached a level that cannot be resolved at all.
Later, after the phylactery fell into Zuo Si's hands, he didn't even have a chance to resist. After being resurrected, it was directly made into a summoning creature card.
Nowadays, two powerful legendary lichs are staring at their former enemies with two dim lights in their eyes, and Kangas has consumed a lot of spell slots in the battle, so he will naturally feel nervous and uneasy.
.
Moreover, the latter inevitably generates many associations about conspiracy and conspiracy.
For example, where did this adventurous team find out their secrets, how did they obtain the golden skeleton, and then set a fatal trap inside.
The more I think about the whole thing, the more terrifying it becomes.
But compared to the anxious Kangas, Zuo Si looked very relaxed. First he raised his hand and snapped his fingers, directly suppressing the murderous impulse in Aberdare's heart, making him regain his appearance as a killer.
Become human again.
Then use the planeswalker card to resurrect the dead Minsk through the wish granted by the efreet.
Finally, the freedom technique was released to release the imprisoned succubus loli.
After finishing all this, he asked his good apprentice in a slightly playful tone: "I think you should know where you went wrong, right?"
Sancho responded dejectedly: "Yes, mentor.
I made a fatal mistake when calculating, that is, I shouldn't leave anything to chance.
In particular, you should not think about those uncertain factors in the best direction, but in the worst direction."
"I...I apologize for my out-of-control behavior of attacking my teammates."
Aberdare, who had regained his senses, now realized what he had just done, with a look of embarrassment and shame on his face.
This was the first time he realized that transforming into a killer could not only bring death to his enemies, but also bring unimaginable threats to his companions.
Especially the magic chain armor on Viconia's body that has been torn by sharp claws, as well as the wounds healed by divine magic, it is like one loud slap after another on the face of the son of Baal.
.
Only Minsk, who only had one string left in his brain, didn't realize that he had died once, and was looking for his good friend Bubu the hamster.
When the yellow-skinned mouse ran down from upstairs and climbed onto his shoulder, the bald man was as happy as a 200-pound child.
Facts have proved that as long as a person is willing to give up his IQ and become stupid enough, he can easily be satisfied and live extremely happily.
In contrast, Succubus Loli is still aggrieved by the fact that she was imprisoned by the demi-lich.
This is obviously the result of inexperience in fighting legendary spellcasters.
She thought that the opponent would release a powerful necromancy or evocation spell, so she added an anti-death barrier to resist a fatal attack.
But Kangas realized that Succubus Loli was not the kind of small character who could be easily killed instantly, so he decisively gave up killing and chose to control.
In the end, the succubus loli misjudged and was imprisoned in the dark room.
As for Imoen, he can only play a role in the team now, and the potential of the Son of Baal has not yet been fully developed.
Since he had been watching the battle in the mage tower of Askatra since the beginning, Zuo Si knew very well what was going on. He did not say anything too harsh, but just lowered his voice and said to the boy who was close at hand: "Remember
This lesson, Sancho.
As a mage, all you can trust and rely on is yourself, and the magical knowledge and power you possess.
You can accept help, make various preparations, set countless traps for your enemies, or induce them to make wrong judgments.
But you must not place your hopes of deciding victory or defeat on others.
Otherwise, even if you are lucky enough to win one or two successes, sooner or later you will pay a price for it, an extremely painful price.
Because what you face in your life are not ordinary people, but a group of extremely vicious sons of gods and even quasi-gods and demigods who do whatever it takes to achieve their goals."
"I understand, mentor. I swear I will remember my lesson and never make the same mistake as today again."
Sancho bent down and bowed deeply, solemnly giving his assurance.
At this point, he finally understood why Zuo Si would let himself face an enemy of the caliber of the demi-lich Kangas.
Because if he didn't experience the other party's power personally, then he would never be able to have the kind of insight and deep understanding he has now.
This is just like many life experiences that have been condensed into one or two sentences or even one word.
Everyone can say it, but only a few can actually apply it in life.
The cruelest thing in the world is that there are some things that you will never understand unless you have experienced them, even if those truths are laid out for everyone to see.
And the painful realization gained after each failure experience is a sign of moving from immaturity to maturity.
The reason why children from rich and powerful families are more likely to succeed than children from poor families is that they have more trial and error costs.
As long as you can learn lessons and experience from repeated failures, the cost you invested before will one day be able to earn back ten times, a hundred times, or a thousand times.
As for the children of the poor, as long as they fail once, they may be doomed.
If the former is compared to investment, then the latter is simply betting everything on it.
Obviously, Sancho is now the rich and powerful child in his family.
From the moment he became Zuo Si's apprentice, he gained the resources and strong backing that every mage in the world dreams of.
Although in the eyes of others, legendary demilichs like Kangas are completely invincible and terrifying existences.
But for Sancho, it is just a trial, a test to re-understand his own shortcomings, even if he fails, it doesn't matter.
“Very good!
Seeing that his good apprentice had grown, Zuo Si immediately nodded with satisfaction, then turned around and turned his gaze to Kangas, who was being stared at by two lichs.
Kangas was also looking at him warily.
After the two looked at each other for a moment, the demilich took the lead in breaking the silence and asked: "Are you the mastermind behind all this? Who are you?"
"My name is Soth, the ruler of this city and all the surrounding lands, the emperor of the West Coast Empire.
Thank you very much for teaching my disciples the most important lesson in life.
Otherwise, I will still have a headache, how to teach this guy an unforgettable lesson when he embarks on the most important journey of life.
In return, I will generously allow you to become a new servant."
As the last word blurted out, Zuo Si directly pulled out the strengthened Demon Moon Blade from his waist.
Instantly!
All the spellcasters present felt that the magic network in the surrounding environment was greatly strengthened, and the air was filled with inexhaustible energy.
But just a second later, they found that their connection with the magic network was completely severed, and they could no longer extract any energy from it.
There is no doubt that Zuo Si used this powerful artifact to directly cut off the Internet for everyone except himself.
Don't let it be said that Kangas was dumbfounded. He immediately lost his supernatural flying ability and fell to the ground with a thud.
Even Imoen, Sancho, Succubus Loli and the other two lichs all opened their mouths in disbelief.
Because in the magic education they received, there was only one person who had the ability to do this, and that was the incarnation of the Magic Network, the most powerful magic goddess on the planet Toril second only to the god Io.
"You...you are controlling the Magic Network?!"
After being silent for a long time, Kangas finally couldn't help but use his slightly trembling voice to question.
As a legendary mage and demi-lich, he is basically a useless snack after losing his connection with the magic network. He can't even use his ability to capture souls and inhale them into gems for digestion.
"It's just a small and insignificant part of the surroundings. There's no need to be so surprised. What's more, I'm a genuine voter. Isn't it normal to be given some special powers by the new goddess of magic?"
As he spoke, silver flames instantly spurted out from Zuo Si's palm, directly wrapping the entire sword, exuding a daunting aura.
There is no doubt that there is nothing more painful than for an arcane spellcaster to find that his opponent is the chosen one of the goddess of magic.
Because the silver fire is the power of the goddess of magic.
Just trying to break the protection formed by it is enough to give people a headache, not to mention the resistance and magic immunity after acquiring Silver Fire.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
The most important thing is that you have no idea how the goddess of magic behind it will react after going to all the trouble to kill a chosen one.
Are you resurrecting it quietly and causing trouble for yourself?
Or will he permanently cut off his connection with the Demonic Network in anger?
At this moment, Kangas began to regret why he did not teleport away immediately after regaining his freedom, but instead wasted his time with this group of children with backstage after being full.
The result is now better. After cutting off the link with the Magic Network, I can no longer even run, or I have even lost my ability to move.
After all, the demilich's flying ability does not rely on its wings, but on the ubiquitous magical energy.
After being forcibly disconnected from the Internet, you can no longer draw magic energy, so you naturally lose your ability to fly.
The only thing he has not lost so far is the power to cast legendary magic.
Since legendary magic directly bypasses the magic network and draws the wildest primitive magic energy from the universe for processing, it will not be bound by the magic network on the planet Toril.
But the question is, under the premise that you are completely unable to move and cannot apply protective spells, casting a legendary spell in front of an enemy holding an artifact, what is the difference between this and committing suicide?
The time it takes just to chant a spell is enough to kill you several times.
After much deliberation, Kangas finally chose to give in.
I saw two red lights in his eyes flashing wildly for a few times, and then responded with a slightly unwilling tone: "I can become your servant, but there must be a period of time, whether it is hundreds or thousands of years.
”
"Hahahaha! What makes you have the illusion that I am actually discussing with you? See what this is?"
Zuo Si laughed and took out a magic belt inlaid with more than a dozen gems.
There is no doubt that this thing is the phylactery hidden by Kangas.
The reason why the Nisril mage led by two lichs did not kill him after defeating him, but chose to seal it, was because they did not find the other party's life box.
And not being able to find the phylactery means that the demilich cannot be truly destroyed. Once killed, it will not take long to resurrect.
He came up with this strategy as a last resort, transforming the two highest-ranking members of the organization into lichs, guarding the golden skeleton for generations to ensure that it would never see the light of day again.
"This is impossible! I obviously hid it..."
Seeing his phylactery fall into the hands of others, Kangas' tone revealed panic for the first time.
"It's hidden in a farmer's house, and it's also blessed with a lot of spells that can block the detection of prophecy magic, right?"
Zuo Si meaningfully said the second half of the sentence for the other party.
As these words blurted out, Kang Ge suddenly felt like a deflated rubber ball. The red light in his eyes became extremely weak. He gritted his teeth and asked, "Why can you find it?"
Zuo Si smiled and replied: "Because someone told me a lot of information about you.
Through some documents in Candlekeep, I found the scope of your activities back then, as well as the secret stronghold hidden in the Snowflake Mountains.
In that stronghold, I read your experimental notes and other related records and found two interesting clues.
Finally, he used his authority as the emperor to let the army conduct house-to-house searches and interrogations in the designated area, and finally got your phylactery without much trouble.
Guess how much I spent to buy it and your life from the descendants of the original farmer?"
"How much?"
The demi-lich asked subconsciously.
"Two thousand five hundred gold coins.
For only 2,500 gold coins, he sold the most important thing of the great demi-lich Kangas who had caused the terrible tragedy.
Is it full of irony?
After all, you promised that as long as you take good care of it, you will give that family endless wealth.
But unfortunately, you have been imprisoned for so long that the couple has been dead for who knows how many years.
Their descendants have forgotten even what the belt hidden in the wall is."
Zuo Si did not beat around the bush or whet his appetite, but gave the answer straightforwardly.
No matter what he does, he must always be well prepared. This is a good habit he has developed over the years.
Before arranging the task for Sancho, Zuo Si had already begun to search for information about the demi-lich and successfully obtained the other party's hidden phylactery.
Therefore, the outcome of this game is doomed from the beginning, and there will never be even the slightest fluctuation.
"So... all of this is a trial you arranged for that brat? And I'm just a tool for this trial?"
Kangas gave Sancho a vicious look.
Because this is definitely a naked and unabashed insult to him.
As a man who had frightened countless people and caused countless massacres, he had never suffered such grievances. He was simply played around like a puppet on strings.
Zuo Si nodded slightly: "That's right.
Don't feel wronged, because Sancho is not an ordinary boy.
His future is most likely to inherit the Blood Throne and become the new God of Murder.
Oh, I almost forgot, you have been sealed for so many years, and you still don’t know what happened in Faerun recently, right?
In fact, in the turbulent year not long ago, the god Io appeared, knocked down the other gods to the mortal world, and walked like a saint.
During this period, many gods fell, including Baal, the god of murder.
But he foresaw his own death, so he left countless heirs in the mortal world.
Now countless sons of Baal are killing each other, competing for the rich inheritance left by their father.
Sancho is the most special one among the many sons of Baal.
Having said all that, let me see the quality of the ring you spent so much time and effort on making."
After that, Zuo Si walked straight to the demilich and took out a ring that exuded a strong evil aura from inside his golden skull near his chin.
The main body of the ring is completely pieced together from broken bones stained red with blood, and the gaps between the bones on the surface of the ring can be clearly seen.
And after so many years, the blood stained on the bones is still bright, unlike normal blood that will turn black and hard over time.
In addition, a blood-red gemstone is inlaid on the front of the ring, which is cut into nine sides through a unique cutting technique. Each side exudes powerful magical power endowed by death and sacrifice.
Anyone who wears this ring can be immune to diseases and toxins, and at the same time form a protective field around the body.
Not only can it gain higher spell immunity and increase spell resistance, but it can also deflect physical attacks and gain regeneration and life recovery speed similar to the Ring of Regeneration.
The most important thing is that it can also cast advanced invisibility once a day and copy spells three times a day, and increase the effectiveness of all necromancy magic by 50%.
Of course, since it is an exclusive customized equipment, the full power of the ring can only be exerted when Kangas himself wears it.
If you switch to an outsider, only the first half of the fixed abilities will take effect, and it will still be at a discount.
Feeling the wails of countless souls of the dead inside this evil ring, Zuo Si asked calmly: "How many people did you kill by making it?"
"There are so many that I can't remember clearly. But a conservative estimate is that on average, at least three thousand people are needed to cut each gemstone."
Kangas gave a rough figure very simply.
As a chaotic evil camp comparable to the demons of the abyss, he has no psychological burden at all for things like massacre.
In other words, in his opinion, those civilians whose lives are meaningless should feel honored to be able to devote themselves to his great works.
"You killed tens of thousands of people and destroyed their souls, and then you created something like this?"
There was undisguised contempt and disdain in Zuo Si's tone.
That’s the souls of almost 30,000 mortals!
The energy obtained by systematically squeezing it in Baator Hell, with his current level of creation, he can create two artifacts from the Eight Classics, not to mention just one artifact.
No wonder Master Nisriel couldn't stand it in the end, so he directly defeated and sealed it.
This kind of extreme waste and reckless killing would be a ghost if it were not dealt with.
"Why, are you dissatisfied with the huge improvement brought by my Ring of Guth?" the demilich asked in confusion.
For him, this ring is the crowning masterpiece of his life. Any arcane spellcaster should be pleasantly surprised after getting it.
"Forget it, there's nothing to talk about with a guy like you. It seems I have to slightly modify your thinking and memory before turning you into a servant."
As the last word blurted out, Zuo Si directly activated the power of sparks to forcibly seal the demilich with only the golden skull left.
The latter seemed to have noticed something, and immediately began to struggle crazily and tried to release legendary spells to cause large-scale damage.
If it were changed to the past, it would obviously be unrealistic to imprison such a powerful undead spellcaster who keeps resisting.
But now Zuo Si is no longer what he used to be.
Using the energy provided by continuously squeezing souls from Baator Hell, although his spark level may not be as good as that of the old dragon Nicol Bolas who has devoured countless time and space mana, it is definitely not those of the new generation brigade.
What a mage can rival.
Without any skills, he directly relied on the suppression of power level to fuse Kangas and the phylactery into a summoned creature card.
Not only that, Zuo Si also made a series of upgrades to this card.
For example, with the legendary magic of [Demi-Lich's Body], it can disguise itself as a human like Shane VII.
Following this, a large number of deletions were made to his memory and personality to ensure that Kangas would get rid of the previous chaotic evil camp and transform into a neutral evil biased towards law.
You must know that the number of spellcasters who can reach level 30 or above in Faerûn can be counted on both hands.
Although a high level of spellcasting does not necessarily mean strong combat effectiveness, it is enough even for a research talent or as a striker at critical moments.
If Kangas' performance is good enough, Zuo Si might upgrade him to a follower again in the future.
With the demilich taken into possession, this trial specially prepared for the Sons of Baal is finally over.
Zuo Si, who has a tendency to have obsessive-compulsive disorder, even gave an order directly to the city hall when he left, asking them to bulldoze this unsightly little house standing on the pier in the old city overnight.
For no other reason than to ensure symmetry between the buildings on both sides of the road.
If there wasn't a powerful demi-lich hiding in this dilapidated house, his character would have been dismantled long ago, and there would be no need to keep it until now.
