Chapter 216: The Persistent Red-robed Mage

PS: Bow and thank the cheating thief, goldenson, potato Pan Pan, blood wolf king and other book friends for their monthly votes.

Henry immediately had a bad feeling when he saw these monsters. If he remembered correctly, that was exactly what Lothell was working on. Combine pterosaurs and humans to create a whole new race. Who exactly is continuing this research? Mo Fei Lother used a special method such as "cloning" to avoid that death?

The thought of having an enemy close to the legendary mage in the cave immediately caused beads of sweat to break out on Henry's head. Although he now has level 7 spells and divine arts, he can fight in a battle, but he doesn't have much experience fighting high-level spellcasters. Looking at the few teammates around him, except for Apodell and Dinah Hei who can help a little, the other few people are completely additive.

Just as Henry was about to retreat, the strange-looking humanoid suddenly spoke. "Hey, hey, hey! At first, the master was worried that the test was not enough, so you idiots sent it to the door. Get them! Remember, don't accidentally get killed. What the owner needs is a living body. ”

When the other dragonmen heard the order, they quickly ordered the female dragon who was hatching eggs to surround her. Henry frowned at this. These created humanoids have a high IQ, and they even know how to let the cannon go first. He quietly gestured to his teammates to prepare for battle, and then began to chant incantations.

"That guy in the robes is a mage! Interrupt him! The dragonman who took the lead roared at his companion.

Korn pulled the bowstring, and an arrow flew out, striking the guy who was giving orders in the blink of an eye. It's surprising. The moment the tip of the arrow makes contact with the scales. It actually slid away automatically. It's as if it's smeared with a layer of oil. The elven hunter was a little unacceptable, and he immediately shot another arrow, and the result was the same as before.

Henry quickly completed the spell, and a fourth-level magic spell, "Emotional Control: Despair", was thrown into the middle of the enemy. About a quarter of the dragons and more than half of the pterosaurs were affected by the spell, and their eyes were full of despair, and many of them even wanted to turn and run away. The dragonman who took the lead opened his mouth and let out a piercing scream, and all the pterosaurs returned to normal in an instant.

"Damn! This guy's screaming is really ugly. I almost went deaf in my ears. Apodell plucked out his ears and cursed.

Dina looked at Henry with a serious expression and asked, "What species are these?" How come I've never seen this before? Not only are their scales resistant to physical damage, but their spell resistance is also frighteningly high. ”

"It's a bit of a long story. Let's get rid of the enemy first. Henry sighed slightly, and directly threw out the "spider web technique" + "greasy technique" stored in the spell matrix.

While the monsters were temporarily trapped in place, Dinah Hei shot a "lightning spell". Henry quickly pulled out his fireball staff and began to bombard indiscriminately. He had to do it quickly, otherwise it would be a big deal if he alerted the guys who were doing research inside. The violent explosions and flames killed all the dragons and pterodactyls in just one minute.

Looking at the ruined dragon eggs all over the ground, Henry couldn't help but let out a wry smile. It seems that the Pterodactyl Knight Ji Lu is finished, all the dragon eggs here have been shattered by the explosion just now, and even if they are not broken, they have been roasted. He quickly withdrew from the cave with his group, and waited some distance away from the entrance of the cave. before they dared to stop and rest for a while.

Apodell sat down on the ground and asked, "Tell me about it, man." What are those strange-looking humanoids? I see you were so nervous just now. ”

Henry rubbed his forehead. This incident made him a little restless. "This was once a necromancer's research base. His goal was to fuse the pterosaurs and humans to create a new race. The archmage was killed by my teacher and another archmage ten years ago, but it looks like he somehow escaped death and is nearing the end of his research. ”

Dina Hei's expression was a little heavy, she glanced at her teammates around her and whispered, "You must not let him succeed." As you have seen from the battle just now, this species has strong magical resistance, and is also immune to the attack of ordinary arrows. If they were allowed to form a scale, then the entire Baldur's Gate area would fall. We must go in and stop this evil act! ”

Henry shook his head helplessly. He really didn't understand where this witch had the confidence to challenge a powerful red-robed mage. "That archmage has a spell cast level of nineteen. That is, he has at least two ninth-level spell slots. Does it mean anything? This means that it only takes one wide-area destructive spell to kill most of us in an instant. If you don't mind risking your life, I'm there to the end. ”

Hearing the terrifying strength of the opponent, everyone fell silent. It was a long time before Apodell stood up and said loudly, "Well, let's vote by raise." If you'd like to go inside and find out now, please raise your hand. With that, he raised his hand.

Dinah Black and Minsk did not hesitate to follow. Ammon hesitated, but raised his hand in the end. Henry sighed slightly and raised his right hand. Since these unsecured teammates are not afraid of death, what are they afraid of. Even if you can't beat it, it's definitely no problem to escape.

The elven hunter Colon looked at the others and raised their hands, and smiled helplessly and raised his right hand. "Since everyone agrees to take the risk, then I will give my life to go crazy with you."

Apodell smiled and patted him on the shoulder. "Ha Luha, I know that there must be no cowards in the team. Now let's figure out what to do, after all, the enemy is tricky this time. ”

Henry recalled the last battle and said to his companion, "I fought this guy before, so I'll give you a brief explanation now." The red-robed mage from Serre is called Lother, and he specializes in necromantic magic. He casts spells very quickly, and is adept at using instant death magic such as "organ harvesting" and "banshee's howl". ”

Ammon covered his face with a scream. "Oh! Oh, my God. Do we have any hope of winning? I remember the scholars at Candlekeep saying that a banshee's howl can pull a person's soul out of their body in an instant. ”

"Don't worry, I'll be blessing everyone with the 'Anti-Death Enchantment' before the battle, so that everyone is temporarily protected from the attack of instant death spells. However, this magic technique can only last for ten minutes, so everyone must fight quickly. With that, Henry touched the girl's hair and calmed her down.

Apodell took a deep breath, clenched his weapon and said loudly, "Let's go!" Let's rush in and see what's in this evil nest Kiyosato. With that, he strode towards the entrance of the cave.

Before entering the cave, the "Anti-Death Enchantment" has been blessed on everyone's body. They moved quickly along the dark tunnel, and it didn't take long for them to spot the light coming from around the corner. Henry carefully took out a mirror and stuck it out, and the situation in the cave was immediately clear to everyone.

I saw a man in a robe who was constantly busy. He mixed some of the potion's strips and poured them into a large green sink. The sink was densely packed with fist-sized eggs, which looked like there were thousands. Nearby, a pterodactyl man was opening his mouth and letting out a soft cry, and the eggs in the sink began to vibrate slightly, as if in response to the sound.

Henry noticed that the man in the robe had a look of eye sockets, and there were no eyeballs in them, only two faint cold lights. Bursts of magic rippled from him, causing everyone to feel a wave of coldness and visceral fear. He took the mirror back and pointed his finger on the ground and wrote, "The guy inside is a lich, and if I'm not mistaken, it's likely that Lother was transformed." ”

"We're in big trouble. Lichs are exempt from all magic and magic such as control, cold, and lightning, and ordinary weapons can't do any damage at all. The kings of these undead creatures have gathered terrifying negative energy around them. If you are accidentally touched by them, then the vitality of the body will be drained, and it will not be long before the whole person will become a dry corpse. Dinah quickly wrote down the various characteristics and precautions of the lich on the ground.

Henry frowned. The lich's various immunizations are too terrifying, and magic below level 3 is basically no threat except for the "Mayuo meteor shower". After thinking about it for a while, he wrote on the ground: "Dina Hei, you will bless everyone with the "Acceleration Technique" in a moment. I'll remove the lich's magical protection, and Apodell and Minsk will break the bones of the hand as fast as they can, so that it can't perform magic. ”

After discussing the battle plan, everyone secretly drank a bottle of invisibility potion and quietly slipped out of the corner. They carefully dodged the stones and magic traps on the ground, and soon came to the side of the test bench. Carefully avoiding the Lich and the Dragonmen, everyone found the best position to attack.

Henry crept over to the table and glanced at the open lab notes. The experiment was densely written on it, and at the end of the note was written: "I'm about to succeed." As soon as the problem of reproduction is solved, a whole new race is born. I......?! What's my name? Carlos? Lilder? Wrong! Damn it! Since the successful transformation, many memories have been blurred. Forget it, it doesn't matter what it's called, the important thing is that these dragonmen think I'm the creator! It's their god! ”

Seeing these lines, Henry immediately understood what the archmage was doing and did not trouble him after being resurrected. It seems that there was an accident during the transformation, and it seems that I lost a lot of memories, and I even forgot what I called. I have to say that Lothel is really persistent, forgetting everything but still carrying out this experiment. (To be continued......)
