Chapter 248 Seventeenth Floor—Deep Sea (Please Subscribe to This 10,000-Word Chapter)
Standing at the dock of the star port, Abala looked at the endless deep space in the distance.
Although this was not the first time it had enjoyed such a view, it still felt a kind of shock that could not be described in words.
For a tabby cat who has lived in the depths of a secluded tropical jungle since childhood, he originally thought that the size and prosperity of Askatra, the capital of the Amn Empire, was amazing enough.
But compared with the space scenery in front of me, the former is nothing.
Especially the huge planet Toril, which was so close at hand, made Abala fully feel his own insignificance.
Zuo Si, who had just finished assembling the magic ship, saw this scene and immediately asked with a smile: "How is it? This scenery is beautiful and shocking, isn't it?"
"Yes. I can't believe in my dreams that one day I can stand in such a place and perspective and observe the whole world. It seems that accepting your conditions is not a bad thing. At least so far, this adventure is still It’s very interesting.” Abala sighed with a smile.
"Believe me, it will become more interesting in the future. In addition, due to your outstanding skills and performance, I have decided to give you a salary increase. From the original fifty gold coins per month to two hundred and fifty gold coins, with Corgan and Same as Rhett." Zuo Si announced his decision straightforwardly.
He found that in the terrain with a relatively large drop in the highlands, the spotted cat people's excellent jumping and climbing abilities could easily rush to the enemies who had set up ambush at high places, and then cooperate with the long-range attacks of their teammates to kill them all.
This kind of flexibility and speed is something traditional warriors like Korgan and Rhett don't have.
In other words, Abala's hunter profession is closer to a mixture of warrior, ranger, and assassin.
"A raise? That sounds good."
The tabby cat's reaction was obviously very cold.
Because he has no idea about the purchasing power of gold coins now. The primitive way of life in the past made it unnecessary to use currency at all. The tribes exchanged things with each other.
"Money can buy many things, such as your favorite fresh meat and spirits, as well as those armors and weapons, as well as all kinds of magic items."
Zuo Si tried to make the other party understand the concept and function of currency.
He had given Abala some gold coins before, but the guy spent them all in just a few hours.
Half of them lost everything in various small gambling games, and the other half bought a lot of messy things, from women's underwear and skirts to daggers, iron pots, cloth, salt, almost everything.
But most of them are things that are not used at all, just like people in modern society on earth place a lot of orders on shopping websites, and then find that none of them are practical.
However, due to the unique values of the spotted cat people, instead of feeling regret, they feel that it is a huge profit to exchange a pile of gold with no practical use for so many things and happiness.
Just as the two of them were talking, Old Cogan walked out of the starport on two short legs, untied his belt as if no one was watching, and began to pour water without any politeness towards the distant planet Toril. .
His actions not only stunned Abala, but even Zuo Si almost stopped.
Good guy!
Zuo Si called him a good guy!
You must know that normal people will inevitably feel a sense of awe for the vast universe when seeing this kind of beautiful scenery.
But this evil dwarf warrior simply used space as a public toilet where he could urinate and defecate anywhere without any scruples.
After finishing all this, he did not forget to shake vigorously, then he pulled up his pants and muttered something quietly, then turned around and returned to the inside of the asteroid.
When the dwarf was completely gone, Zuo Sicai held his forehead and complained: "No wonder Korgan's fighting style is so wild. It turns out that he is a madman without any respect at all. Maybe... he may be one of the very few on this continent. A truly unbelieving person would dare to charge forward with weapons even when faced with a real god."
"Maybe you are right. He is the most fearless warrior I have ever seen. No matter how powerful the enemy is, his bloodlust cannot be shaken." Abala commented, stroking the thick hair on his chin.
Because he has always known very well that Korgan did not use his most powerful ability - rage during the sparring.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to hold on for that long.
"Yes. Korgan's hometown was destroyed by the dark elves, so he has always maintained an unforgettable hatred in his bones, and used it as a motivation to hone himself. It is estimated that the uncontrollable bloodthirsty impulse is the most intuitive manifestation of this emotion .Here, put on this protective soul necklace, and then we are going to enter the seventeenth floor of Leyline Maze City to deal with those mind flayers."
With that said, Zuo Si handed over a handmade immunity mind control necklace.
According to information provided by Elrond and other Githyanki, the seventeenth level of the Underground Labyrinth is also known as "The Deep," where mind flayers and the slaves they control reside.
Every once in a while, their leader Ith Amidon, a Soul Eater who is more advanced than ordinary Mind Flayers, also known as the Mind Flayer, will transplant mature tadpoles into the brains of slaves in large quantities, Then transform it into a new mind flayer.
It is through this method that the mind flayers are able to withstand repeated attacks from the Githyanki and red dragon allies.
In addition, in the middle of the seventeenth floor, there is a turbine generator similar to a psychic drive, which can produce amazing energy.
The Githyanki once tried to capture this place, but the horrific energy blast released by the generator killed many people, and they finally had to give up for the time being.
Erlon felt that since the mind flayer had established a psychic generator, there must be a psychic warehouse and a shell ship deeper down.
The former is a magical device that causes captured humanoids to fall into a deep sleep.
Normally, the creatures put into the psychic energy warehouse are carefully selected to be excellent hosts with the best physical fitness and the most suitable for being parasitized by tadpoles and transformed into mind flayers.
As for the shell ship, it is an out-and-out "black technology".
Not only can it fly for a long time, but it can also jump to other planes through the astral realm, which is equivalent to a psychic version of a magic ship.
Therefore, for Zuo Si, the deep sea on the seventeenth level of Earthline Maze City is a place that hides many treasures and is worth spending time to explore.
Just like this, after making some repairs in the star port, the group quickly entered the seventeenth level along the passage opened by the Githyanki.
Just after passing through the dark tunnel, they felt the darkness and damp environment.
At the same time, there was the roar of water coming from a distance.
You don't need to ask to know that the Mind Flayer used psychic energy and a large number of slaves to build a dam at the place with the largest drop in the underground river highlands, and that's where the psychic generator is located.
Since they had just been attacked by the Githyanki not long ago, there were no traces of mind flayer activities along the way, only a few traps and monsters scattered around the tunnel.
Along the way, Zuo Si also noticed some corpses of Furu, a magical creature that looked a bit like a large jellyfish on the ground.
This is a friendly creature that can fly quickly in mid-air by jetting gas, and also possesses a certain degree of psychic abilities.
Their bodies are oval-shaped, with a huge mouth without any teeth.
The two eyes are located at the front of the tentacles directly above the body. Like the eye stalks of the beholder, they can rotate 360 degrees at will without any blind spots.
Under the body are a large number of tentacles ranging from light blue to dark blue.
They mainly rely on the spiritual power of sucking psychic creatures to meet their survival needs, but they do not make the sucked person feel uncomfortable or endanger their lives.
For this reason, both the Githyanki and the mind flayers view Furul as a nasty pest.
Once discovered, they will be killed immediately.
But for ordinary adventurers, this kind of friendly, intelligent creature that possesses a lot of strange and weird knowledge is a good source of information.
In addition, Furu is very sensitive to the emotions of all living things, and will express his emotions by changing his own color. Light pink is joy, dark blue is sadness, green is curiosity, and dark red is anger.
And these corpses, without exception, are dark blue, a symbol of sadness.
Zuo Si had read a detailed introduction to Furus in the Monster Ecology compiled by Elminster, so he knew a little about this interesting creature.
"What is this? A jellyfish from the Underdark? Can it be eaten?"
Pyromancer Alaina knelt down and poked Furu's elastic body, with a curious expression on her face.
She even wanted to cut off a piece with the dagger she carried and put it in her mouth to taste.
Fortunately, Zuo Si's quick hands and eyes stopped this reckless behavior, and he scolded angrily: "Idiot! Are you crazy? Furus are intelligent creatures, and they have extremely high intelligence and psychic powers. If you eat this thing, It will immediately appear an extremely chaotic and evil crimson color under the camp detection magic."
"Huh? This thing is an intelligent creature!"
Alena's eyes widened with an expression of disbelief. She simply couldn't believe that something like a jellyfish could have thinking and independent consciousness.
Not only him, but everyone else in the team is also very different.
After all, Furu lives in the Underdark or the Star Realm most of the time, hiding near racial communities with psychic abilities such as the Mind Flayers and Githyanki, stealing their spiritual energy for food, and rarely appears in the physical world. Almost 99% of adventurers have never seen the surface of the world.
In addition, the appearance and appearance are a bit curious, so before seeing a living Furu, it is impossible for normal people to believe that this is an intelligent creature.
Just when Zuo Sisi was about to do some popular science for this group of "illiterates", the spotted cat man suddenly rushed behind the rocks in the corner of the passage at an extremely fast speed.
In the blink of an eye, he walked out carrying a Furu cub that was only the size of a palm.
This little guy was obviously the lucky one who hid in a corner and escaped the massacre. Because of his excessive fear, his body turned dark blue, and he kept sending out pleading signals to everyone in the team through his mind connection, and at the same time secreted it from his body. foul-smelling liquid.
If it is an adult furul, the foul-smelling liquid alone can make people faint, and they will eventually have to be let go.
But the larvae were obviously so small that Abala just turned her head to the side and covered her nose with her other hand.
"It looks very pitiful. What are you going to do with it?" Half-orc Rhett asked in an uncertain tone.
"Well - why not take it back and give it to Isadora as a magic pet. She is a psychic and a mage, so the fur cub should be a good helper."
With that said, Zuo Si took out his wand and cast a cleaning spell on the little guy in front of him, then pressed his hand on the other's soft body to show his kindness.
Gradually, the Furu cub seemed to feel that the group in front of it was not hostile, and its body color quickly changed from dark blue, symbolizing fear, to green, symbolizing curiosity.
Because it is still too young, it cannot clearly express its meaning through telepathy, but only continuously transmits various emotions.
After ten minutes of communication, Zuo Si finally made him understand the meaning of "demon pet".
When it learned that it could have an owner to protect it and provide it with stable spiritual energy as food, it immediately agreed to the deal and lay directly on Zuo Si's shoulder, its body showing a pink color symbolizing pleasure.
Whenever Alena tried to get close, the cub would immediately hide in Zuo Si's arms in fear.
Obviously, the pyromancer's behavior of wanting to taste the meat from Furu's corpse just now really frightened it.
With the Furu cub in tow, the team continued along the damp and dark passage.
After a while, they saw a rushing underground river and an underground lake formed in a low-lying and gentle place.
There is no doubt that this underground river and lake is the origin of the name "Deep Sea" on the seventeenth level.
After walking some distance further, a huge cave about ten meters high appeared in front of us.
But the strange thing is that the floor of this cave is actually sunken, and there is a broken statue of humanity in the pit.
It can be vaguely distinguished from the appearance that this is a female dragonborn, and there are some gold coins, gems and other trophies scattered around.
With the power brought by the silver fire, Zuo Si clearly saw the bright arcane aura of change at the bottom of the pit.
Even if you think about it with your buttocks, you know this must be a trap.
And that statue is not just a statue, but a living person who has been petrified.
You must know that the dragonborn's magic resistance is very high, and it is usually difficult for petrification to have an effect on it.
Coupled with the traps that are obviously tempting adventurers to approach, it can be basically concluded that it is the work of Halaster Blackrobe himself.
Only this old lunatic would deliberately set up various traps in the corners of Leyline City to watch the adventurers die miserably or be in a hurry.
In order to confirm what kind of trap this was, Zuo Si directly summoned a dire wolf and ordered it to jump into the pit.
Just a second later, the big pit that had been cast with transformation magic closed instantly like a mouth.
The dire wolf didn't even have a chance to jump up before it was flattened and disappeared without a trace.
As for the unlucky guy who was petrified, he seemed to be blessed with an ability similar to the earth element, which allowed him to blend into the surrounding rocks and earth without being crushed.
After about ten seconds, the closed pit slowly opened and returned to its previous appearance.
Even the gold coins, gems, and magic items were intact.
Obviously, these things are bait used to lure greedy adventurers into taking the bait.
"Damn it! I just wanted to jump down and catch all those valuable things." Corgan couldn't help but curse in a low voice.
As a bloodthirsty and brutal dwarf berserker, he has only one reason to go out on adventures, and that is for money.
So when I see something valuable, I subconsciously pick it up and put it in my bag first.
If he really jumped, he would be a meat pie by now.
At least one shot of the seven-ring magic - Resurrection is needed to bring it back from the world of the dead.
"I think we need a long pole now. Adventurers in the Amn area often bring a strong long pole when they venture into underground caves and other places, specifically to deal with such situations."
Half-orc Rhett touched his chin and gave a very professional suggestion.
A long pole that is long enough and strong can not only be used to test possible traps in narrow passages, but can also help adventurers cross places such as pits.
The only problem is that this thing is too long and a bit inconvenient to carry, and too short to be of much use.
"Don't worry, I have a solution."
Zuo Si smiled and waved his wand to cast the summoning spell. In the blink of an eye, everything including the statue flew up.
"Hahahaha! Well done!"
The old dwarf grinned widely and swept all the loot into the dimensional bag carried behind his back, waiting for Zuo Si, the team leader, to distribute it after the adventure was over.
As for the petrified female dragonborn adventurer, she ignored it magnificently.
He regards wealth as his life and doesn't care whether these things belong to the other party. Anyway, they were ownerless when he got them.
Zuo Si ignored the trophies that were not worth much money, but performed a simple magic detection on the statue, and then activated a scroll to remove petrification.
moment!
The statue, which originally kept its hands raised with a horrified expression on its face, returned to flesh and blood in just a few seconds.
However, due to being petrified for a long time, she looked extremely weak. She couldn't even stand firmly and fell to the ground with a plop, panting heavily with sweat all over her body.
"You...who are you? Where are you?"
The brain of the woman with obvious dragon-born characteristics was obviously in a state of extreme confusion, and even her speech seemed weak.
"My name is Soth. As you can see, I am the leader of this adventure team. Who are you? How could you be petrified by magic and placed here?" Zuo Si probed with interest.
Through observation, he could basically confirm that the woman in front of him was already a fifth-generation dragonborn or above, and did not have the scales, horns, claws and wings of the first-generation half-dragon.
The only thing that can prove his dragon ancestry is his long silver-white hair and his pupils that flow like mercury.
If nothing unexpected happens, the opponent is either of white dragon bloodline or silver dragon bloodline.
In addition, judging from his attire, he should be a pretty good warrior.
"Petrified?"
When the woman heard these words, she instantly recalled the scene before she lost consciousness. She couldn't help but gnashed her teeth and cursed: "Damn it! It's Halaster Black Robe! That damn old madman used magic to petrify me. ."
"Petrified? Why would he do this? As far as I know, normally the mad mage will not easily attack adventurers in the Lost City unless someone takes the initiative to attack him." Zuo Si asked in confusion.
"Because one of my teammates had a mage, and when he used the fireball, it accidentally affected the sudden teleportation of Halaster Black Robe.
And he regarded this accident as a signal to attack, and immediately summoned a large number of monsters and released high-level magic to drown us.
Before I was petrified, I saw with my own eyes that the mage in the team was blown to pieces by the seven-ring delayed burst fireball, and another warrior and ranger were smashed into meat patties by the fire giant's war hammer.
The priest died suddenly on the spot under the influence of necromancy magic, unable to even perform a single divine spell.
In front of the mad mage, we are as vulnerable as a group of newly born babies with no resistance. "
When she said these words, the woman's eyes showed strong fear, and her whole body trembled slightly uncontrollably.
For most adventure teams that are called elites by the outside world, legendary mages like Halaster Blackrobe are essentially the same as gods and are absolutely invincible.
What's more, this is the Lost City of Earth, and the Mad Mage is still fighting at home.
Fortunately, the woman's psychological quality was pretty good. It only took a few seconds to regain her composure and said in a very grateful tone: "My name is Asasra, Asasra Ragslakna. Thank you. You saved me, otherwise I don’t know how long I would have stayed in that stone statue state.”
"Assasra Ragslakna? The name of a giant dragon!" Zuo Si raised his eyebrows in surprise.
It would not be surprising if the first generation of mixed half-dragons had such names, because one of their parents must be a true dragon.
But if you are a dragonborn after five generations, your parents are basically mortals. In theory, you will not give your children dragon names. It would be too ostentatious and could easily cause trouble.
"This is the name my great-great-grandmother gave me. She is a silver dragon who always pays attention to and protects all her descendants."
When talking about this matter, Asasla's expression was both proud and proud, and he obviously respected the source of his bloodline.
Of course, considering that most silver dragons are from the good camp and are very interested in mortal society, they often transform into elves and half-elves and wander around various towns, and even develop friends or even lovers with mortal adventurers.
In addition, they have a very strong sense of family and will not abandon their offspring like the five-color evil dragons, so they often create a dragon family inadvertently.
This is also why, when the silver dragon and the red dragon conflict, their own strength is obviously far different from that of the opponent, but they often have the upper hand.
Because they prefer righteous group fights to fighting alone.
It doesn't matter if you can't beat him, you can still defeat others.
But the price is that once the power of the red dragon is too strong, the silver dragon and their lovers, friends and descendants may all die in a battle.
"Hmph! You have been petrified here for so long, and you haven't seen your silver dragon great-grandmother come to save you. It seems that she is just a coward. She doesn't dare to enter the Lost City of Earth, let alone provoke the powerful mad mage."
Corgan obviously couldn't stand the woman's arrogance, and he didn't give her any face at all, and laughed outright.
"Smelly dwarf! What did you say?"
Asasla was instantly angered and subconsciously wanted to draw his sword.
But when she touched her waist, she discovered that her scabbard was empty, and even the shield she was carrying behind her was missing.
Korgan grinned with a bloodthirsty smile, raised his ax with a sharp cold light and threatened: "I said your great-great-grandmother, that silver dragon, was a coward who bullied the weak and was afraid of the strong! Do you have any objections?"
no doubt!
If Asasla still dares to speak harshly at this time, he will definitely hack the opponent to death without hesitation.
Similarly, the half-orc warrior Rhett and the spotted catman Abara also surrounded the dragonborn from the left and right.
Pyromancer Alena's palm also began to flash with red fire.
Since the team led by Zuo Si does not have a good camp at all, and is basically either neutral or evil, so when encountering this situation, the first reaction is to help teammates first.
Asasra immediately broke into sweat when he realized his situation.
After all, he had just recovered from the petrified state, his body was inevitably in an extremely weak state, and he didn't have anything that could be used as a weapon.
If a fight really breaks out, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on for even a second.
But if she just gave in and allowed the other party to insult her great-grandmother, she was a little unwilling to do so, and she became entangled for a while.
Seeing that the woman who was so aggressive one second turned into a shrunken turtle the next second, Korgan immediately showed a disappointed expression and spat disdainfully: "Bah! What a waste! Does this deserve to be called Dragonborn? You are far worse than the other dragonborn I know."
You don't need to ask to know that the old dwarf is referring to the dragonborn knight Davian from the planeswalker summoning card.
Since the last time he canceled the summons, Zuo Si has not summoned it, but used it as a trump card to turn the situation around at a critical moment.
Because after the card level reaches LV8, Davian has gained the ability to transform into a red dragon, and it is not an ordinary dragon, but a legendary dragon with a very high professional level.
Its terrifying combat power can easily level a city by itself.
"That's enough, that's it."
Zuo Si took advantage of the situation before it reached its worst and decisively stepped forward to stop the dwarf berserker from further provocation.
For his generous employer, Korgan was quite respectful. He immediately put away his ax and muttered in a low voice: "What a pity. I also want to taste the difference between the taste of the dragonborn's blood and that of other creatures."
Azasla undoubtedly heard these words, and suddenly felt that the hairs all over his body stood up.
At this moment, she finally understood how evil and bloodthirsty the dangerous dwarf in front of her was.
If possible, she would even want to escape immediately from this unknown adventure team in front of her.
But the problem is, this is the 17th level of the deep sea in the Lost City.
Without teammates and weapons, it is almost impossible to return to the surface alive.
In desperation, Asasla could only temporarily follow Zuo Si's team and continue to move forward.
While passing through a cave filled with the corpses of Githyanki, troglodytes, gray dwarves, ogres, orcs, and mind flayers, she picked up a long sword from the ground that was not very rusty, and she felt a little more confident. A little bit of security.
Obviously, after the last swift attack by the Githyanki, the mind flayers and the slaves under their control suffered so many casualties that they have still not been able to regain control of this layer.
Continuing to move forward, everyone soon came to a stone gate inlaid with complex patterns.
In the center of the cave, facing the stone door, there were some spears inserted, with a severed Mind Flayer head hanging at the end.
You don’t need to ask to know that this must be the work of a Githyanki.
They tried to use this method to provoke their sworn enemy into opening the psychically sealed entrance from the inside.
But unfortunately, mind flayers are absolutely rational and cold creatures, so they will not become angry and lose their cool because of the death of their kind.
Feeling the protective power contained in the stone door, Asasra couldn't help but remind: "Only the mind flayers can open these doors, you can't get in. So why not turn around and return to the surface now."
"hehe……"
With a meaningful expression on Zuo Si's face, he took out a biological card and activated it.
Before anyone else could realize what was happening, a living mind flayer appeared in front of them out of thin air.
It didn't even say a word of nonsense. It walked straight to the door and activated its own mind to open it.
Once that was done, the mind flayer walked right in and disappeared into the darkness.
"You...you can actually summon and control the mind flayer?!" Assasla was obviously frightened.
After all, the mind flayers are most famous for their powerful psychic powers.
And this power determines that they cannot be controlled and charmed by magic or other things.
Unfortunately, Zuo Si had no intention of answering this question, but took the lead and walked in.
As for the rest of the team, they have long been accustomed to this.
After groping forward for almost ten minutes, we finally came to a campsite with a fountain and a small amount of leftover supplies.
There are also torches blessed with eternal flames hung on the walls.
Apparently, this was once a place where slaves controlled by the mind flayers lived.
But judging from the thick layer of dust on the surface, no one has used it for a long time.
Maybe the slaves were sent as cannon fodder to fight against the Githyanki to death, or maybe they had tadpoles stuffed into their noses or ears and their brains were eaten and turned into a mind flayer.
The only thing that is certain is that their chances of survival are basically zero.
Just when Zuo Si was considering whether to rest on the spot for a while, he suddenly received a spiritual message from the Mind Flayer spy sent out.
The leader of this level of mind flayers, Eth Amidon, went so far as to frantically and secretly cultivate a giant mind flayer in order to destroy the Githyanki and their starport base on the level above.
You must know that this thing is completely taboo even in the mind flayer society.
It is said that only if a tadpole is strong enough and has no parasitic host to continuously devour its own kind, it will eventually break the limit of its own size and grow into a terrifying behemoth.
From a distance, it looks like a super giant worm about thirty to forty meters long. The surface of its body is covered with mucus like the mind flayer. The head at the front is a big mouth full of tentacles and sharp teeth. It can grind up and swallow almost anything alive.
The most important thing is that this thing has more powerful psychic power than the mind flayer or even the mind destroyer.
A normal Mind Flayer's mind blast can at best leave the target in a state of shock.
However, the giant mind-stealing insect's mind blast can directly kill a creature like a needle prick, or it can destroy the target's mind in an instant through psychic crushing.
Of course, the premise is that the creature must be intelligent enough.
If something like a bug doesn't even have self-awareness, it can ignore such an attack.
It seems that low IQ is not always a bad thing.
At least when facing the giant mind-stealing insect, you can be immune to powerful psychic attacks.
In addition, the amazing strength and physical bonus brought by its huge size also give the giant heart-stealing insect an amazing melee combat ability, and it is extremely difficult to kill.
When biting, it also injects deadly poison into the wound.
As for means such as suggestion, mind control, thought perception, teleportation, charm, etc., they can be released at will without restriction.
If someone casts teleportation magic in front of this guy and escapes, it will capture the other person's teleportation location.
When the caster thinks he has successfully escaped, he will often find that the fatal insect teleports over at almost the same time and swallows him in one bite.
If there is no spiritual protection magic equipment, no matter how many people come to face such a terrifying monster, it will be in vain.
"Guys, I think we may have to prepare for a fight. There is a giant mind-stealing insect waiting for us in the tunnel ahead."
Zuo Si didn't hide anything and directly stated the information he had obtained.
"Giant mind-stealing worm? What is that?" Half-orc Rhett asked with a confused look on his face.
Zuo Si touched his chin and explained: "You can understand it as a super giant worm that is about thirty or forty meters long, very similar to the mind flayer, but with psychic abilities ten times or more powerful. As for the combat power, it is probably only two or three. What the dragons look like together. The most troublesome thing is that there may be some mind flayers and the slaves they control around this giant mind flayer."
"Damn! This thing just doesn't sound easy to deal with."
Korgan subconsciously touched the psychic protection necklace hanging around his neck.
He had fought against the mind flayers before and knew how difficult and insidious these octopus heads were.
Often if you are not careful, the other party's psychic ability will take advantage of you.
When you react, you may find that the people you killed were your companions, not your enemies.
"It is indeed difficult to deal with. But don't worry, I have already prepared enough cannon fodder..."
After that, Zuo Si directly activated another biological card in his hand.
In the blink of an eye, hundreds of goblin werewolf zombies crowded the entire cave and the surrounding passages.
They are different from those guys under the Mage Tower who are poorly equipped and mainly used as coolies.
These goblin werewolf zombies are obviously much stronger and taller.
Not only does he have sophisticated steel full-body armor and a full-coverage helmet, but he also holds a variety of weapons such as war hammers, axes, spears, javelins, tower shields, and crossbows.
It looks like an army, fighting in small groups under the command of the undead lieutenant.
In fact, this is an undead army strengthened and integrated through various magics.
It is different from those low-level undead creatures that just rush up in a swarm.
Because some of the undead lieutenants were given the undead creature enlightenment technique, they gained the same wisdom as the advanced undead.
Therefore, this undead army has a very high degree of organization, as well as discipline and execution that living creatures can never match.
Coupled with Zuo Si's upgrade of this card, all goblin werewolf soldiers and undead lieutenants have a certain warrior professional level, which is simply not comparable to that of ordinary armies.
What's more, to deal with enemies with psychic powers like mind flayers, undead and constructs that are completely immune to charm control and psychic damage are always the best choice.
But considering the price of the construct, even the cheapest one will not cost less than two thousand gold coins each, so undead creatures are more economical.
Gudong!
Asasla couldn't help but swallowed, and was stunned by the dense sea of undead in front of him that could not be seen to the end.
At the same time, the eyes looking at Zuo Si were full of awe and fear.
She couldn't imagine how the young man in front of her could summon and control so many undead creatures. She wanted to ask several times, but she finally held back.
Because she wasn't sure if she would be silenced if she asked.
As the only person present who knew the details of Zuo Si, Alena joked with a smile: "My dear master, you finally show some momentum. Let's go, let's take down all the things on this floor." Kill all the enemies."
"Hey! My ax is already thirsty."
Korgan was obviously excited by the undead army that appeared out of thin air in front of him, completely forgetting his previous fear of mind flayers and giant mind flayers.
With so many undead creatures who were completely unafraid of death as cannon fodder, he felt that it would not be difficult to kill a whole city of mind flayers.
After all, mind flayers are made of flesh and blood, no different from ordinary people. They will bleed and die if they are cut by a sharp weapon.
"Go forward! Let's give those mind flayers a big surprise."
Zuo Si gave the undead lieutenant the attack order directly.
The latter understood it and immediately began to command the low-level undead to surround the lair of the giant heart-stealing insect from all directions.
Whether they encounter mind flayers or slaves under their control along the way, they will immediately attack without hesitation.
Especially in a narrow passage, it was difficult for the opponent to dodge the volleys of powerful crossbows, and as a result, they were all turned into hedgehogs.
The poison smeared on the front end of the crossbow arrow makes it impossible for the person hit by the arrow to run very far before he falls to the ground and loses the ability to move, or dies from respiratory failure.
Even if some mind flayers are powerful enough to create psychic barriers to withstand the volleys of powerful crossbows, and successfully use psychic spells to destroy several squads, this loss is simply insignificant to the vast army of undead.
Soon, they will be overwhelmed by more undead rushing over.
As for using teleportation magic or turning into a spirit to escape...
Sorry, Zuo Si, who is hiding in the dark, will jump out at any time for a sneak attack.
Other team members are also blessed with the five-ring transformation magic [Thor Stone Movement], which allows them to move freely among the rocks, suddenly appear behind the enemy and launch a fatal blow.
Relying on this tactic of using undead cannon fodder to attract the enemy's attention head-on, while shamelessly sneaking up on him, it didn't take long to clean up the area around the giant mind-stealing insect's lair, without even a single person escaping back to report the news.
In order not to waste it, the heads of all slain mind flayers were cut off and soaked in alchemical solution to prepare for emergencies.
When approaching the center of the lair, Zuo Si immediately discovered that all entrances here were blocked by the continuous force wall technique.
You don't need to ask to know that it must have been set up deliberately to prevent giant insects from escaping.
After all, the giant mind flayers are not ordinary mind flayers, and they will not obey their orders, nor will they even regard them as the same kind.
Once out of control, Baobuqi will devour the mind flayer as well.
In addition, even if the force wall is destroyed using dissociation, the latter will quickly recover within a minute.
The reason why this is possible is entirely because of those strange-looking devices.
The energy generated from the dam's psychic generator is continuously transported inside through pipes, and then shaped to form a stable force field wall.
It has to be said that on the road of psychic technology, the mind flayers are definitely the race that has gone the furthest.
Its astonishing technical strength is simply unmatched by other races.
There are many devices that even Zuo Si can't figure out how they work.
After cutting off the energy supply to those devices, the road to the center of the giant insect lair was finally completely opened.
With the help of dark vision, he could vaguely see a worm that was more than thirty-five meters long and looked like a super giant earthworm entrenched in a huge pit.
Its skin appears dark purple, and from time to time it will open its bloody mouth at the front, making a spooky sound.
That huge mouth full of fangs and powerful tentacles can definitely crush and swallow a person with ease.
It was easy to tell from the densely packed bones of different sizes around him that this guy had eaten at least hundreds of slaves and was always hungry.
