Lord of Spells from Faerûn

Chapter 39 Conspiracy

Suddenly, Imrik saw a stall. The stall owner placed several spell books. Imrik curiously walked to the stall to check, and found that the covers of these spell books were very old, and some were stained with blood. It was obvious that the spell books were The owner of the book has most likely passed away.

"Boss, how do you sell these spell books?" Imrik asked.

The stall owner was a middle-aged man. He said indifferently: "Choose whatever you want, but you can't read the content. It's two thousand gold coins each."

Imrik shrugged. This blind box sales method made him feel like he was dreaming about returning to Earth.

He observed for a while and selected the three oldest-looking books. The higher the level of the wizard, the more likely he was to look through his spell books over the years, so he was right to pick the older ones.

He briefly browsed through the three books. One book only recorded a few first-level spells. Obviously the owner was a small first-level mage. The second book did have second-level and third-level spells, but they were all There is only the third book of spells recorded by Imric, and several spells that have not been copied have been found.

They are: three-ring spells - Lightning Beam, Leomon's Cabin, Remove Curse, Eruption of Earth and Rocks, and Phantom Binding.

Needless to say, the lightning beam is a three-ring card spell used by the sorceress, and Leomont's hut is a very practical life spell. The caster creates a spell hut that lasts for twenty-four hours. It can be said that the mage must travel far away. Prepared spells, comfort and instant kill magic rope.

Curse removal is specifically used to remove curses caused by spells. For example, Carrot was struck by the evil shadow of the Mother of Goblin Spiders. Although Imrik healed his injuries with Treat Serious Injuries, The disease curse caused by the spell cannot be removed, and this is the effect of the curse removal spell.

Earth and rock eruption is a transformation spell. The caster controls a point within the field of vision. Centered on this point, a tumbling flow of soil and rock erupts in a 20-foot cubic space.

Phantom Binding is an illusion spell, which is considered to be the rarest type of spells obtained by Imric. The caster creates several ribbon-shaped shadows that quickly explode from the target location in all directions. Creatures within the range that fail the Will roll are stunned for one round and entangled. It is a powerful AOE control spell.

Although there were not many spells, six thousand gold coins were exchanged for five third-level spells, which was still within Imrik's range.

After acquiring seven new spells, Imric happily returned to the inn on Watch Cliff. As soon as he entered the door, he heard several travelers talking loudly:

"Have you heard? Shallow Water Town was attacked again. This time many people were taken away. I heard it was the magician from the Troll Mountains. The lord was furious and came to Waterdeep City several times. Oh my god, just to ask Master Black Staff for help.”

Imric's expression changed. He remembered that on his way to Waterdeep City, he was attacked by lizardmen in Shallow Water Town. There were also warlocks among them. I wonder if there is any relationship between the two.

At this time, a familiar figure walked over. He was a fourth-level warrior who was in the caravan when he came to Waterdeep City.

He said to Imrik: "Mr. Mage, your butler asked us to deliver a message to you."

He took out a photo ball, and the butler's video appeared in the sky: "Master, something happened. I thought you might want to know, so I asked the Chamber of Commerce to tell you that Banyue Village was attacked a few days ago. The entire village has disappeared, and there are only some corpses at the scene. I remember you said you were from there, so I wanted to report to you."

After saying that, the butler bowed and the video disappeared.

Imrik frowned and thought. Both Banyue Village and Qianshui Town had been attacked, and people were missing. He felt that the events in Banyue Village were probably related to the warlock.

He didn't know much about the profession of magician. He only knew that the person he served was an extremely evil being. His experience working for the foundation on Earth told him that the disappearance of a large number of living people must be related to sacrifices. In the ethical world, the practice of human sacrifice by cultists is very active.

Imrik had a hunch that something big might happen in the Sword Coast, especially at this time of year. If the red-haired woman in Leyline City did not lie, and the hunting season was approaching, then as the overlord of the North, Waterdeep might not be able to spare any money.

The timing was so coincidental that Imrik had to be suspicious.

Although the current City of Waterdeep is still powerful, it is no longer the time for the three legendary mages to stand together at their peak. The Silver Hand is missing, and Elminster is stationed in the Valley of Shadows. The only person who can protect this crown of the North, Only Kelben.

Thinking of this, he felt that the lord of the shallow water beach might not get what he wanted.

In such a sensitive period, Kelben, as a cautious mage, will ensure his own safety. If he falls into a trap and is seriously injured, the entire Waterdeep City and the nearby radiation areas will be like falling into a borderless land. He can now All he can do is stick to his mage tower and ensure that Waterdeep City is safe, which is already the limit.

Imric was thinking about the next move in his mind, and he had not yet fully made up his mind on whether to leave here before a possible war broke out.

Originally, his purpose was to contact Kelben through Sofia's introduction and find a way to learn profound magic knowledge. If he left here, he would not know where to go.

Candlekeep may be an option, but if you go to Candlekeep, you have to choose a long journey south and pass through the Troll Mountains on the way, which is too dangerous.

Maybe travel east to Myst Drannor? There is a magic academy there, and if you can get a job, you can also gain access to a lot of magic knowledge, but again, to get there from Waterdeep City, you have to cross the huge Aenook Desert, and you may even face the evil and powerful blue people living there. dragon!

Let's settle down and see the situation first. If it's really too dangerous, it's not too late to escape using plane travel. What's more, with Kelben here, Waterdeep City should be safe.

The black-robed mage thought for a while and set a goal. It was impossible to run away. The danger might not happen yet. Wouldn't it be too cowardly to just run away? It would be correct to make a choice based on current events. .

In fact, this is also the helpless daily life of most low-level adventurers. There are too many dangers in Faerûn. Many adventurers set out with great ambitions, but often they fall in the place of their birth before they have gone very far. nearby.

Lone travelers, in particular, are even more dangerous. Adventurers who travel alone are often experts with extremely high professional levels. In the wild, there are all kinds of emergencies and dangerous creatures. Without a complete adventure team configuration, it is difficult to survive. Survive alone and you never know what creature may be approaching you in the dark while you sleep.
