Chapter 625: The Sword of the Equalizer

"Have you forgotten that we are the biggest nemesis of the Mind Flayer. Their pathetic psychic control doesn't work against the undead, and those slaves can't resist the damage of negative energy. Rest assured, master, I assure you that it will be a war without any suspense. ”

Congus's tone was flat, but full of confidence. He didn't think that the Mind Flayer Demon would be much more difficult to deal with than the Eye Demon, after all, for the undead, the latter's demon firing line was far more threatening than the former's mind control. Moreover, this time the Ring of Truth is pouring out, and the number of casters is enough to completely overwhelm the place, and it would be humiliating if this does not lead to victory.

Henry nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very good, then let's leave in fifteen minutes." Remember, don't hurt the tadpoles in the main brain and cisterns, they are very valuable materials. In addition, there is a lich's life box here, where to put it in the crate golem, his family has been destroyed by me, and it is impossible for us to use it. ”

"Yes, I promise to hand over the entire mastermind to you intact." The half-lich agreed without hesitation, and put the life box away.

The Mastermind may be a very dangerous enemy for others, but he still has a way to imprison it, and he doesn't have to worry about the Brain Golem that will make many people look bad.

As the two men spoke, a Death Knight came up to his knees with three magical objects and raised his hands to raise an amulet, a strangely shaped blade, and a sling.

"Master, they are the three most powerful items in the entire lair, as for the other gold coins and gems, they have not yet been counted."

"Good. You can step down. As he spoke, Congus directly used the mage's hand to pick up the three items and identify them one by one. Concrete information soon followed.

Emerald Charm:

This amulet is made of a green stone embedded in a golden pedestal. After launching. Greenstone protects the wearer from any form of will, including psionic attacks (but is not completely immune to psionic attacks).

Special Abilities:

This amulet allows the user to resist many types of psychic spells, such as "Charm", "Confusion", "Fear", "Temptation", "Faction Detection", "Immobilization", "Shock", "Psychic Detonation", "Hypnosis", and "Mentally Handicapped". However, this protection consumes one amount of energy per use, and only lasts for six seconds.

Usage: 50

Alfrin Sling:

This slingling was blessed by the halfling god Alfrynn. After the Battle of the Dirt Road, he was given to the valiant Takbi. Ray Tho Wopp. In this battle, an incoming group of enemy troops was killed by Rettovorp's forces, saving the entire halfling village. Slings are said to have the ability to influence enemies with a wall of sound. It is said that this voice was made by the goddess herself.

Special Abilities:

Once a day, the sonic detonation of the affected person is not enough to identify the will. Immediately stunned and immobile for eighteen seconds.

Balancer's Blade:

This is one of the fragments of the Balancer, a powerful weapon forged from ancient times as a tool to balance the forces of the universe. Also known as the "Sword of Neutrality", the more the target's faction deviates from "Absolute Neutrality", the more damage it deals. It is said that the balancer was finally defeated by the elven hero "Aram. Green Leaf", he disappeared after traveling to the Dark Regions. However, other rumors say that the sword's hilt gem was stolen by a slave who escaped back to the surface world.

"Damn! This turned out to be part of the Balancer's Sword. ”

Congus cursed loudly and threw the blade directly to the ground. This legendary weapon of the same name as the Holy Avenger emitted a blinding glow, scorching the half-lich's golden skull. Although it did not cause too strict zhΓ²ng damage. But the pain was definitely unpleasant.

This sword of neutrality symbolizes the balance between good and evil, order and chaos in the entire world, and can only be used by those who strictly adhere to absolute neutrality. Just like all legendary items. It has a mind of its own, so when it detects a holder who doesn't conform to its rules, it immediately unleashs a powerful repulsion.

Seeing the appearance of the half-lich wolf, Henry shook his head with a smile, bent down to pick up the blade, and gently brushed the dirt from it, feeling the power contained inside. The blade of this weapon is unlike most swords, especially since from the middle, the blade is divided into two parts, which appear to represent two ends away from neutrality, which may represent good and evil, or order and chaos.

The shape of the blade of the Sword of the Balancer at the very top is also very peculiar, with a curved hook protruding from the outside of the blade, glowing with a pale blue light, and the sharp Cheng dΓΉ can even cut through the rock lightly.

With a unique slit design and a weird hook-like tip, it can be said that if this weapon wants to be really used, it will probably require very unique skills, otherwise it will kill itself before it hurts the enemy. Now that he's got the gem, the blade, and the last hilt, he's only going to see the light of day. If nothing else, the hilt of the sword should be somewhere within the City of Mind Flayer.

"I'm really looking forward to the moment when it's recast." Henry sighed as he picked up the other two magic items on the ground. Among them, the emerald amulet was handed directly to the son behind him, and the slingling was thrown into the dimensional bag.

He knew that to these undead, these two things were basically useless. Originally, the undead were immune to all will attacks and most psionic spells, so the Emerald Charm was completely useless. As for the sling, forget it, except for the nimble halflings and gnomes, I am afraid that few people are willing to use this weapon.

After all, throwing stones is nowhere near as long as bows and crossbows, and can be easily blocked by armor and shields, but crossbow arrows are different. It can penetrate armor at close range. So even the slings blessed by the goddess are of little use. At most, you can take it out as a gift when you win over the halfling tribe in the future.

The undead swept up very quickly, clearing everything of value in less than ten minutes, transporting the complete corpses of the Eye Demons, and even the captured Eye of the Hive Mother being teleported back to the headquarters of the Circle of Truth, where unimaginable torture awaited it.

As an organization of spellcasters made up of evil lichs, the Circle of Truth will do its best until it finds out why the Eye of the Mother of the Nest is able to control the other Eye demons, otherwise they will never give up.

After this qiΔ“ is completed. Congus glanced at the Barlow Flame Demon who was standing motionless, nodded directly at Henry, and then marched towards the City of the Mind Flayer with the army of undead, and disappeared into the darkness in the blink of an eye, leaving only the next path out of the snow.

The cold wind outside is still roaring, the snowstorm has not abated at all, and the ambient temperature has dropped to about minus 20 degrees Celsius. The severe cold created by the "terrifying deep cold" has already frozen all the giant centipedes to death, but the power will continue for more than ten hours, and it will not gradually dissipate until the magic energy is completely exhausted.

Seeing the undead out of sight, Colby breathed a sigh of relief. Dragging the corpse of the Eye of the Elder to the front, he bent his knees and knelt on the ground and said in a hoarse voice, "Master." Here's what you want. ”

He had been frightened by the overwhelming power of the lich's spells, and he hadn't dared to speak since the end of the battle. Although the Barlow Flame Demon itself also has a lot of spell-like abilities, including many above level seven, it is not at the same level as these lichs who specialize in magic. In particular, the terrifying aura exuded by the half-lich Kangus is probably not much worse than that of a real demon lord.

Henry noticed the fear in Colby's eyes, and a meaningful smile appeared on his face: "Yes, it seems that you have learned to be in awe, which is good, only those who are self-aware are qualified to live." Guys who are too arrogant are usually short-lived, especially for a demon who has been ostracized by the main plane. ”

Speaking of this, he deliberately paused, squinted his eyes and stared at the ugly face of the Baro Flame Demon for a few minutes before he continued to speak: "You know, from the moment you were born, there is no possibility of continuing to be promoted, if you want to gain more power, then you have to choose a profession, either a warrior or a mage, of course, a warlock can also be, after all, you are a demon, and this talent flows in your blood." But until then, those chaotic thoughts must be discarded, otherwise real power will never be attained. ”

"Great master, I am disgusted with this feeling of being despised by others, please tell me how you can gain more power." Colby looked up, his eyes burning with longing.

"It's very simple, first forget that you are a demon." After saying that, Henry ignored the dull-looking Barlow Flame Demon and began to examine the corpse of the Elder's Eye.

He knew very well that to open a portal that would allow the secondary demon lord to pass through guΓ², not only would he need a lot of expensive spellcasting materials, but most importantly, he would have to have a large carrier, and that blood and corpses full of magic would normally be the best choice.

Clearly, the Elder's Eye fits all the boxes perfectly. Inherited from the pure bloodline of the Great Mistress and containing a huge amount of magical power in her body, it is simply the perfect vehicle to connect to the bottomless abyss, and even the most discerning spellcaster cannot find any flaws.

After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the body, Henry stood up and asked with a smile, "What, haven't figured it out yet?" ”

Colby shook his head in annoyance: "Yes, I don't understand at all, is there any relationship between gaining strength and forgetting that you are a demon?" ”

"Of course it does. You are the one I created, and from the moment you were born, you have no connection with the abyss. Know that every lord, even a minor lord, needs the approval of the will of the Abyss, and you have no chance of doing so. If you want to gain more power, then from the perspective of mortals, you have to choose either magic or martial arts. It's a very simple choice, isn't it? After saying that, Henry calmly waited for the other party's answer.

He didn't have much hope for the Baro Flame Demon in front of him, he just wanted to do an experiment to see how the demons' learning and plasticity were, whether they could also become professionals in large numbers, and if so, then he could consider establishing a demon army loyal to him in the future.
