Chapter 377 Five Questions

The episode with Maris did not affect everyone's mood. The group quickly passed through the crowded streets and returned to the Moonstone Mask.

Townsend brought the priest to the body of the dwarf Mr. Alvin and said: "Let's get started."

The priest nodded, stepped forward, and raised his holy symbol.

A flash of red light flashed, and the dwarf's body suddenly sat up.

"The Talk with the Dead spell can summon the soul of the deceased back into his body, allowing the living person to ask him five questions. Once the five questions are asked, the soul of the other party will leave again, and the Talk with the Dead spell cannot be used again. If you summon him back, you will have to resurrect him before killing him." The priest said in a low voice.

Tang Sen nodded and said to everyone: "You go out first. Don't let anyone disturb me without my permission."

He emphasized to Barn: "Hold the heart. If the priest does anything strange, don't hesitate to crush it directly."

Barn raised his heart and pinched it. The pastor immediately collapsed on the ground in pain. Then Barn dragged the other person casually and said, "Don't worry, he can't do anything as long as I'm watching."

The door was closed, Tang Sen raised his wrist and dropped the crystal pendant purchased at the magic shop.

"There are people spying on my life in this room."

"."

After reciting silently three times, Tang Sen opened his eyes and saw the crystal pendant slowly turning counterclockwise.

The result of the divination was negative.

But Tang Sen did not relax because of this. The divination ability obtained from the mysterious world is not very powerful. In other worlds without magic, it may be able to be invincible, but in the world of Faerun, it is easy to be countered and deceived by divination. result.

"ROOM."

Invisible space spread from around Tang Sen.

In this space that was exclusively controlled by Tang Sen, Tang Sen confirmed that he did not sense any invisible or deformed presence in the room.

At this time, Tang Sen walked up to the body of the dwarf who was sitting upright and said, "Do you know a few addresses of Netheril ruins?"

The corpse answered slowly in a gloomy voice: "One."

"Tell me its location." Tang Sen said.

"Eternal Wasteland." The corpse said slowly.

Tang Sen frowned: "The specific location."

"Follow the stream of laughter until you reach the hilly area by the lake. There is a hidden cave." The corpse replied a little slowly.

"Does that hill have any characteristics?" Tang Sen continued to ask.

"Like a woman lying on her back," the corpse said.

Tang Sen nodded, realizing that he couldn't ask for more specific information. After all, it was just a corpse, and it was impossible for Tang Sen to ask him to draw a map.

"I've finished asking my questions." Tang Sen said.

"One more question." The corpse looked at Tang Sen.

Until the five questions are asked, the corpse will remain in a state of waiting for questions. If no questions are asked, the soul of the corpse can only leave after the duration of the conversation with the dead spell ends. This time depends on the magic power of the caster.

Naturally, Tang Sen would not let the soul of the poor dwarf stay in his cold body, so he casually asked: "What is your favorite food?"

The corpse's eyes rolled and he said: "Toast bread. No. Maybe it's the truffle pastry I had at Moonstone Mask. But I'm not sure if it's my favorite. If I say it's the best I've ever eaten. As for food, maybe truffle pastries. But the concept of favorite is a bit subjective. I prefer to choose my daily food, but toast bread is really too ordinary.”

The corpse began to chatter in a slow, dark tone.

Tang Sen immediately covered his face.

"Damn, what a stupid question."

Obviously, although Mr. Dwarf is dead, he has never changed his talkative nature. If no one interrupts him, his mouth will not stop all day long.

And obviously, no one can interrupt a corpse to answer his last question.

What Tang Sen can foresee is that the other party will never stop before the duration of the Talk with the Dead spell ends.

He sighed, simply opened the door, and saw Barn and others waiting near the corridor. Barn held his heart in his hand and stared at the pastor with his eyes.

"What's the result?" Cui Xi looked over.

The corner of Tang Sen's mouth twitched and he said: "Although there were some minor accidents, it is over for now. Inform the people of Moonstone Mask and ask them to prepare for Mr. Alvin's funeral."

"Of course, we need to wait until he finishes speaking."

"Speak?" Barn came over, glanced into the room, and suddenly showed a painful expression: "Damn it, I thought I would never hear the dwarf's chanting again in this life."

Townsend took the heart back from Barn's hand, and then looked at the priest.

"Now, it's time to deal with things between us."

"Come with me, whether you can survive or not depends on how you behave next."

The priest eventually survived.

The price was that a black mark with a circle on the outside and a square on the inside appeared on his arm. From then on, he could no longer betray Tang Sen.

Tang Sen returned his heart to him, allowing him to leave the Moonstone Mask and go back to find the people of the Ser Revival Society.

Although Tang Sen has no interest in purchasing Sazastan's phylactery, this does not prevent him from planting a nail in the Serre Revival Meeting. Maybe in the future, this nail will be put to use.

Of course, even if it is useless, at least in tomorrow's Scorching Sun Competition, Tang Sen can get some information about the protective nine-ring red robe mage through him to facilitate his own actions.

A night of silence.

The sun rises as usual, which also means that the day of the Scorching Sun Competition has arrived.

Tang Sen got up early. When he walked to the window, he could see a huge hot air balloon with the face of the current city lord Fitch in the sky above the arena in the distance.

Although it is not yet time for the competition to begin, there are already dense crowds of people outside the arena, preparing to enter.

The team of adventurers wearing splitting helmets should also have blended into Neverwinter City by now.

Tang Sen was not in a hurry, but he, Barn and Cui Xi enjoyed a delicious breakfast in the Moonstone Mask's banquet hall.

"Shall we set off today?" Barn asked while feasting: "I can't wait to try that plate armor."

After purchasing the adamantine plate armor, in order to avoid being too public, Tang Sen temporarily put the plate armor into a dimensional bag, which made Bain scratch his head, and even the armor he made by himself no longer tasted good.
