Chapter 812 Father and Son

The Shadow Plane is a dark and desolate world, without the sun, moon, and stars, and there are no natural phenomena such as wind, rain, thunder, and electricity. Horrible monsters are hidden in the distorted chaos. A black vortex of water or cloud, once someone gets close, it will be picked out and attacked immediately.

As one of the very few places that are directly connected to the main plane, there are often some intruders here, most of them jump in through some magic, and some of them accidentally stray from the weakly isolated areas between the planes. If you are not well prepared, you will soon become the food of the aboriginals here, that is, monsters such as shadows, phantoms, ghosts, shadows, etc. If you are unlucky enough, you may even encounter shadow dragons. It's not as simple as death.

As the last surviving floating city in Netheril, Shadow City is staying in the dangerous shadow plane at this moment. Ever since it found out that its country was destroyed, it has never left, and has been silently guarding the last of Netheril civilization. legacy.

Of course, for this magic city with many legendary professionals and high-level mages, the mere shadow plane is not dangerous at all, even if they go to hell and the abyss, they are not afraid.

After all, in the era of Netheril, there were quite a few great arcanists who had the ability to imprison and enslave demon lords or devil dukes. Among them, the two most famous artifacts "Death Moon Orb" and "Seat of Sakoziel" were born. In that era, so the City of Shadows has stored enough magic knowledge, as long as they are given some time, any difficulties can be easily solved.

The supreme city lord, Terramante Tanshul, is standing at the top of the tallest building in the city, which is also the tower in the center of the entire floating city, quietly looking at the black city walls and the many towering mage towers outside the window, without looking back Asked: "How is the plan going? Did the humanoid mage really create a power core comparable to Mythra's core?"

"It went very well. According to the news from the dark assassin a few days ago, the oriole has been awakened, and I believe it will not take long to obtain important information. As for the power core you mentioned, I think it should be true. Henry Ann Gomi created an artifact that radiates immense magical power, but I'm not sure he'll be able to create a second one."

Rui Valan stood in the center of the hall, reporting all the recent progress in a low voice. Perhaps in the eyes of all residents in the entire city, he is the supreme leader of the Goddess of the Night Church, but in front of his father, he is as obedient as a child.

None of the twelve Shade Princes dared to commit any escapades before Telamante was full. They knew very well how unfathomable this father was, especially the indifferent and expressionless face, which perfectly concealed his inner thoughts, just like the harsh laws he made for this city, from the bottom of his heart reveal the nature of a dictator.

In order to ensure that the City of Shades can retain and continue the original magic system of the Netheril era, the great arcanist adopted the most direct and violent method, using devil-like means to establish a series of dogmas. Even if you encounter a little problem in life, you have to go through layers of procedures, so nothing in this city has changed for thousands of years.

It has to be said that this is a miracle, although the City of Shadows has always been isolated from the world. But it is absolutely not possible for ordinary people to completely stop the social system.

Anyone who can do this is either a complete lunatic and paranoid, or has absolute confidence in himself.

It's hard to tell what kind of Terramante Tanshul is. But judging from the current state shown, it must belong to the strong-willed type.

"Oh? Are you sure that is not absorbing energy through the magic net, but the real eternal energy core?" He turned his head slightly surprised.

Rui Valan nodded lightly: "Yes, father, a real eternal core. According to the report of the spies, just exposing it to the air can make the caster feel that his connection with the magic power has strengthened."

"Unbelievable!" Telamante couldn't help frowning. "Can you organize a capture? A never-ending power core is very useful to us. Maybe it can make Shadow City stronger."

No one knows better than him how important unlimited energy is. Had Netheril possessed such an artifact back then, it would not have ended up like this in the end.

The reason why Karthus wants to replace the goddess of magic is not because he intends to use the energy in the magic net to save the increasingly deserted country. To put it bluntly, it is because of the "magic absorption" of Felin Mokui. These monsters drained all the magic elements , formed one by one magic forbidden area, which caused the magic net to weaken in the entire Ennook desert, and it has not fully recovered until today.

"I'm sorry. Father. It's impossible to succeed." Rui Varan had a wry smile on his face. "Although Henry Angomey handed over the power source named the Arcane Core to a powerful subordinate, I can feel that it is a decoy. As long as an enemy approaches, he himself can instantly Hurry up. Are you sure you can deal with a mortal who can kill gods?"

Telamante squinted his eyes and looked up and down at his eldest son. It took several minutes before he asked, "Have you seen him?"

"That's right. At the gate of the Warlock's Tomb. A very terrifying person. I almost died." Rui Valan didn't intend to hide it at all. At the same time, there was a hint of fear in his eyes. "He didn't even use the power he used when he killed the gods. He created a strong thunderstorm with only the original magic power. The power is almost the same as that of legendary magic. Father, I can be sure that his spellcasting level is definitely much higher than yours .”

Hearing the last sentence, Teramante's expression that had remained unchanged for thousands of years finally changed, especially the sudden contraction of the pupils that could not be hidden from anyone.

He took a deep breath and muttered to himself: "How is this possible! There are only a handful of people who can surpass my spellcasting level. Is it because of this that Lavok rejected the alliance's proposal? He thinks I am not The opponent of the young human mage!"

Rui Valan sighed softly: "I'm afraid so. The Wizard King once said that Henry Angomey's soul has undergone the ultimate spiritual trial, and will grow into an individual stronger than the gods in the future. He is now It is already quite difficult to deal with, if there is another floating city, then the main plane will no longer be unstoppable, so this plan can only succeed, not fail."

"What are you going to do?" Telamante didn't talk nonsense, and directly raised his head to stare at the eldest son with those captivating eyes.

Rui Valan looked at his father fearlessly, followed by the corners of his mouth slightly upturned, and said with a sneer: "It's very simple, I have set a positioning magic on the oriole, and she will stay in place for the rest of the time." Near the floating city, as soon as Henry Angomey leaves Baldur's Gate, he will immediately mobilize all the power of the city of ghosts, and launch a devastating blow before his floating city is completed, so as to solve this potential danger at once. "

"This is playing with fire! Don't you know the consequences of a spellcaster with such power, a little anger?" Talamante's mouth was full of questions at this moment, and even a fool could feel him displeasure in my heart.

But as the eldest son and a voter of Shar, Rui Valan just smiled and spread his hands: "Don't worry, father, he has no chance to get angry at all, because the operation of the oriole is about to start, when the time comes..."

Speaking of this, he raised his hand and made a grabbing motion: "He will never escape Shar's grasp again! The broken family, the irretrievable friendship and kinship, and the so-called reputation, everything is in vain. Will be reduced to nothing. Anger, resentment, and tyrannical negative emotions are constantly emerging from the other side of his soul, and then the most terrifying destroyer of the main plane is born."

Seeing the distorted smile on the eldest son's face, Telamante couldn't help frowning: "Okay, I agree to let the City of Shadows return to the main plane. I hope your plan will not go wrong, otherwise... you should understand that I am How to treat those losers, even my son."

"Of course, father, I've never let you down, have I?"

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Rivaran smiled and performed an ancient etiquette popular in the Netheril era, then turned and left the room at the top of the tower. After confirming that Telamante did not monitor him, he curled his lips in disdain, lowered his voice and said to himself: "Hmph! Old stubborn, let's see, as long as I complete this mission, Shar will It will help me seize the position of supreme city lord, and you will be swept into the dustbin of history. In front of the grand goal of the goddess, there is nothing that cannot be sacrificed..."

Soon, his figure disappeared into the shadows of the corridor, as if he had disappeared out of thin air.

At the same time, Henry who was far away at Baldur's Gate had just made the Master Assassin into an undead puppet. Although he lost most of his memory, his combat experience was not lost. In addition, he was able to travel freely between the main plane and the shadow plane. He is definitely a very dangerous assassin.

Finally, he checked the magic equipment on the undead assassin, and nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, the transformation is finally complete. Dagger, short sword, hand crossbow, sleeve arrow, poisonous needle, a full set of magic leather armor and speed boots, I believe that even legendary professionals will have a headache when they encounter it."

"Is it necessary to do this? My brother's elite assassins don't seem to have encountered an unkillable target." As an assistant, Amy asked helplessly.

She felt that her master was a little too exaggerated. It cost tens of thousands of gold coins to make a puppet of the undead. It would be better to build a golem directly, at least the golem has much more functions.

"Hehe, believe me, he will come in handy soon. After all, our enemies will become stronger and stronger in the future, so it is necessary to add some insurance. Well, now take him to your brother, Robert knows What should I do." As Henry spoke, he lifted the girl's chin, and gently kissed two (attractive) red (lips).

"No problem, everything is as you wish."

Amy blushed and quickly fled the studio with the undead puppet. Although the two had had a relationship not long ago, she was still very shy about this kind of intimacy, so she quickly disappeared at the gate. (to be continued ~^~)
