The black scene was mixed with the thin white mist. Aaron was half-kneeling on the ground, his blood constantly flowing down his nostrils. The Son of Chaos felt distressed and brushed away the Moradin Thunder God Curse that had lost its divine power.
Scroll, I felt very sad in my heart.
Moradin's full blow was not meant to deal with Be'lak, but in this case, he had to use it.
The air tasted bitter. The Water of Guilon evaporated in large swaths under Beelak's explosion, leaving behind a white breath. The pungent smell of the chaotic energy that escaped after the defeat of the Shadow King made Ya
Lun kept coughing. He gave himself a healing magic, felt the chaotic magic in his body, and silently looked at the scene in front of him.
He really wanted to see Beelak's body, but he didn't. He defeated Beelak and banished Beelak, but he did not kill Beelak.
The threat of the original Demon Prince still exists, but next time, there won't be Moradin's Thunder God Spell to banish him.
"You did a great job, guest of the Moonflower House." The elf lich Bielsa - The Unreasonable floated from nearby. The lich who had just finished using the wish spell could clearly feel that his magic power had dropped a lot.
It also slowed down. Bielsa came to Aaron's side and stared at the direction where Be'lak disappeared: "You have solved a huge threat. Now, you are allowed to leave Myth Drannor safely."
"You are so heartless." Aaron glanced at the elf lich approaching him: "I think I have at least solved a big trouble for you."
"Maybe, maybe not." Elf Lich Bielsa said in his dry tone: "I don't care so much. Now that everything is over, I can allow you to leave Myth Drannor safely, which is the greatest kindness to you.
You are a human being after all, and this place is not suitable for you."
"I picked a gift for you from the treasure house. Now, take it and leave here." Bielsa took out a square box studded with pearls and emeralds and sent it to Aaron.
"This is this?" Aaron took the square box, which contained a cloak made of dark blue silk. There were countless silver runes printed on the collar, symbolizing the elf general's rank mark imprinted on the collar. The surface of the silk was as calm as running water.
Under the lines, the magic power is flowing like a sea.
"Many people come to Myth Drannor just for such a magic item." The Elf Lich raised his head and cast his gaze into the distance: "The Commander's Cloak is a relic of the Crown Era. You are very lucky. A guest of the Moonflower Family, since ancient times,
After this era, apart from Everlasting Island, there are very few people who can create such wonders."
Commander's Cloak, an extremely rare magic item.
In the war between the Orc Empire and the Elf Empire in ancient times, whenever the Elf generals wearing commander's cloaks entered the battlefield, it would trigger the subconscious fear of the Orcs. The Elf generals were powerful, cunning and changeable in combat tactics, and each of them
Generals possess devastating magical powers.
With several crown wars, the power of the elves has greatly declined, and most of the commander's cloaks have followed the elven generals into the grave, but there are still some cloaks left behind.
In addition to being a symbol of status, this piece of equipment is also a powerful magical equipment. It can directly defend against all magic below level 3. Within a hundred meters around the cloak, all creatures with elven blood can gain huge
morale bonus.
Finally, this cloak can also provide the caster with a bonus to spell casting success and improve the wearer's intelligence attributes.
On the country's black market, the value of the Elf Commander's cloak is estimated to be between 38,000 gold lion coins and 80,000 gold lion coins.
"This is too valuable, I can't accept it." Aaron hesitated for a few seconds, but returned the cloak to the Lich. He smiled and said: "Besides, if I accept it, doesn't it mean that I agree to leave now?
Have you lost Drannor? I still have things to do."
"What else do you have to deal with?" the Elf Lich said impatiently.
"I promised a person to get a bottle of water from the Pool of Light." Aaron took out the bottle.
He told the Elf Lich about Anomin.
The Elf Lich was silent for a few seconds: "Then go ahead. The water in the Pool of Light has been corrupted like the Mystery Lock. Any promise that it will be used as a healing tool is a lie, but... Calimshan's
The gods and monsters are indeed elusive, and it is not impossible that the Qi gods really want a bottle of water of light."
After saying that, Bielsa - The Unreasonable suddenly seemed to remember something. The Elf Lich took out several sets of scrolls tied together: "By the way, you look like an arcane caster and a god.
Spell caster, since you are closely related to the Silver Virgin, my research may be useful to you."
"Get the water and leave here. This is my last advice."
Bielsa the Unreasonable disappeared into the night, leaving behind several sets of scrolls and a chest containing the cloak of the Elven Commander.
Aaron did not refuse the kindness of the Elf Lich anymore. Like his name, this Lich was really a very stubborn and unreasonable person.
Picking up the scroll and flipping through it a little, Aaron's eyes lit up.
This Elf Lich had nothing to do for hundreds of years, so he put all his energy into researching the "Supreme Ladder" and achieved some results.
What is the "Supreme Ladder"?
The Supreme Ladder is a channel for communication between the gods and the main material plane in the ancient times of the country, when the boundaries between gods and mortals were not so clear. The gods can directly send incarnations to the human world through the Supreme Ladder without having to
Spending a lot of divine power to travel through the crystal wall system, mortals can also directly access the kingdoms of gods in the outer planes through the highest space.
Who made the Supreme Ladder and how it was specifically made is unknown. According to the research of the elves and lichs, it was not until some time after the elves came to the kingdom that the god AO began to prohibit the appearance of new Supreme Ladders out of some considerations.
.
(AO only gives orders, he never explains why)
But there are still some "Supreme Ladders" that have been preserved. For example, there is a Supreme Ladder in Waterdeep City. Because of the existence of this ladder, almost all the gods in the country who have faith in Waterdeep City will be able to worship them on their holy days.
They will all participate in the temple's celebrations in the form of incarnations (the existence of the Supreme Ladder allows them to save a lot of divine power).
For another example, there was once a supreme ladder hidden in the Valley of Shadows. During the Year of Turmoil, the second-generation magic goddess Mystra wanted to return to her kingdom of God through this place and reported the theft of the Tablet of Destiny to the god AO.
This was done by the three gods of death, and they were killed by Heim, the god of protection who was guarding the gate of the Pole Star camp and had the authority to control the city.
The highest ladder in Shadow Valley was later destroyed by the incoming attacks of Bane and the Zhentarim.
Bielsa the Unreasonable has recorded in detail the research results he collected on the Supreme Ladder. The Elf Lich may still be dreaming of a dream - the Elf Gods headed by Corellon Rathrian will one day personally take action and recast it.
Myth Drannor's Glory.
As for whether this dream will come true one day, Bielsa himself does not have much confidence, but just like the city can occasionally see the glory of the former Mystery Drannor due to the confusion of time and space, this does not make sense, but
Already made the Elf Lich feel very satisfied.
When people live, they always have to dream.
It just so happens that Aaron may really have the ability to build a supreme ladder. If his astral magic to bypass the magic network was not interfered by the god AO, then he should not be able to build a supreme ladder according to the method described in Bielsa's information.
It will attract the attention of gods.
But this new supreme ladder will be named after me, Aaron Salian.
Yes.
Let’s call it the “Star Dome Railway”!
…………
With Be'lakor's defeat, peace returned to Myth Drannor.
The headless Mind Flayer corpses and their blood on the ground tell the story of the outcome of an unfair encounter. The Khorne demons had hunted enough heads and returned to the Chaos Demon Realm with satisfaction, showing off the trophies they had hunted again.
.
The Tzeentch demons responsible for guarding the portal worked hard for this change dedicated to the Lord of Change, but they dispersed with the wind, leaving the daemonic elves at a loss.
The Great Unclean One suddenly lost his magic power supply at the moment when he was about to decide the outcome with the Ferrin Demon Sunflower. The good children of the loving father unfortunately suffered a defeat, but Grandpa Nurgle was always so kind, and he would definitely forgive him.
Children who have suffered a little setback, right?
As for the phaerinn, who was infected with the plague of Nurgle and was vomited all over his body by corrupt bile at close range, and was dying, he could only hope for his own blessings.
Except, a severed purple head.
The Keeper of Slaanesh was beheaded by Ichiatu-Zham, the son of Bane in a one-on-one battle between true men (?). On his coquettish and twisted head were empty eyes that had lost his crazy and slutty look. The Keeper's eyes were dull.
The Secret Keeper pierced the ring and stuck out his tongue, the air was filled with a twisted scent of incense, the power of tyranny sealed the Secret Keeper's escape route, and the remaining power of Bane was revealed on Shamu's body.
He is also the only one among Myth Drannor who not only escaped unscathed from the army of Chaos, but also defeated the great demon in battle.
All the complex forces in the city are trying to find the causes and consequences of this demonic invasion.
Aaron encountered a group of Lathander believers lying in a pool of blood on the way to the Pool of Light.
The Dawn Seekers suffered a fatal blow in the battle with Be'lak. They suffered heavy casualties. About one-third of the Lathander believers were killed on the spot, one-third were seriously injured, and one-third suffered serious injuries.
Minor injuries.
Among them, the most seriously injured person was the legendary priest "Morning Lord" Rockefeller. At this time, the legendary priest had entered a state of near death.
"Dude, are you okay?"
After Aaron arrived, without saying a word, he directly released a six-ring life-system magic restoration spell on Rockefeller, and the Lord of Dawn was saved from the brink of death.
"Thank you, sir." Lord Rockefeller of the Dawn thanked Aaron. The legendary priest of Lathander could not help but feel disappointed and sad on his face: "I have heard your name, Aaron Salian, Kingmaker, Silver Virgin
of voters.”
During the healing process, Rockefeller told Aaron what had happened.
"I am the one who should thank you, everyone." Aaron drained all his magic power without hesitation, and raised a green light rain among the dawn searchers, healing their injuries and soothing their injured hearts.
.
The believers of Lathander were very grateful to Aaron for his help. He saved at least fifteen lives.
But as Aaron said, it is not these Lathander believers who should be grateful, but him.
The appearance of this group of Dawn Seekers helped Aaron a lot. If they hadn't fought against Be'lak, Aaron wouldn't have defeated Be'lak so easily.
The original demon prince was too proud of his own power. Out of disgust for the light, Be'lakor crushed Lathander's Sunstone with his hands, crushing Lathander's divinity.
Not only did his behavior not bring him any benefit, but he was hurt by Lathander's divinity. He didn't feel it without fighting. After the war with Aaron, Bilak discovered that Lathander's divine power suppressed his own
In terms of strength, his movements became much slower, his spellcasting became obscure, and his proud strength declined rapidly.
Although the original Demon Prince was a supreme being with quasi-divine power, he did not have a divine kingdom, and it was difficult to connect to the subspace. Therefore, although his power was strong, it was used less.
This group of Lathander believers acted as a backup for Aaron.
Aaron recalled what the Emperor had said.
"Bilak always failed because of his arrogance, but no matter how many times, he would come back."
After resting briefly in the camp, Aaron left as much of the supplies he carried as possible for these dawn searchers, and also left a gold ticket of 1,000 gold coins to express his gratitude.
The believers of Lathander always carry glorious power and are never afraid of sacrifice. In this regard, what they possess also comes from the brightest side of human nature. Aaron does not like to get too close to them.
Recently, because they are easily burned, they have to admit the rationality and necessity of their existence. Without these idealists, the country will inevitably be less glorious.
"Are you going to the Road of Moander?" Lord Rockefeller of the Dawn learned of Aaron's plan, and he thought Aaron was crazy.
After experiencing such a blow, the Dawn Seekers had planned to temporarily retreat from Myth Drannor. Without Lathander's Sunstone, they could not gain a foothold here. After hearing Aaron's plan, the Dawn Lord's third
My first reaction was to advise Aaron not to be impulsive.
Aaron was very insistent, and Rockefeller had no choice but to tell him how to go to the Moander Road in the north of the city.
The two sides said goodbye, and after taking a bottle of water from the Pool of Light, Aaron took one last look back at the ruins of the city in the mist, and left the city of Myth Drannor.
This is not a place that Aaron can explore now.
But he vowed that next time he comes here, everything will be different.
…………
On the edge of the Valley of Shadows, at the Cormanthor Forest Outpost, Anomin from Calimshan sat uneasily and looked at the black forest in the distance.
Lord Aaron Salian has been in there for several days and has not come out yet.
Under the gray sky, the temperature was getting lower and lower. An Nuoming was wrapped in a half-worn robe, cursing the damn humid weather.
What the son of Calimshan's pasha hates most is the cold and wet weather in the Black Forest, the chill that penetrates the bones. Annomin once thought that no matter how cold the weather was, it would be enough to wear a camel skin jacket outside and a velvet shirt inside.
That's enough. It's been raining these past few days and it's really freezing him.
Why hasn't Aaron come out yet?
An Nuoming placed his sword on the ground, knelt on one knee, and prayed to his gods for guidance.
Ablando, my Lord, I pray every day, but you have no answer.
Please listen to my prayer and answer my call!
Otherwise, I will be finished, and so will my mother!
The son of Calimshan begged bitterly, but there was no response.
Anomin hung his head in despair. Since the Year of Turmoil, his god, Abrandor, has rarely answered the prayers of his believers.
After staying for a while, Anomin got up in despair and planned to return to the cheap hotel in Shadow Valley and spend another boring day.
But today, the situation has changed.
"Anomin, son of the Pasha... I hear your voice."
"My lord!"
"I woke up from the darkness, I am very weak now... I need your help, I will save your mother."
"Go to the Road to Moander, do as I say, listen to my voice, and I will guide you."
"Hurry, otherwise it will be too late!"
Anomin could not control his violently beating heart, and he followed the voice into the Cormanso Forest without any hesitation.
