"Damn it! What on earth did this guy Wilmes do?"

After cutting off the visual connection with the manticore, Zuo Si felt terrible.

Because the noise made by the Red Dragon was so loud that even he didn't know how to end it.

Especially those monsters of different races, camps and values, it is obviously impossible for them to submit to Wilmes and voluntarily join this huge evil army just because she is an adult red dragon.

Just the opposite!

Either they have their own ulterior motives, or the magical creatures' psychic abilities are strong enough to control the leaders of these monster tribes at the same time.

Zuo Si got a headache when he thought about the various complex factors, conspiracies and interests that might exist.

You know, he originally planned to use poisoning, necromancy magic rituals and the Shadow Legion's night raid capabilities, and then cooperate with his own magical power to directly stage a massacre.

Use quick and hasty methods to wipe out the entire army of monsters.

When the time comes, just take Wilmes away from this troubled place and the situation will slowly calm down.

But now it seems that I was just overthinking.

Especially those snake people who possess powerful magical talents are by no means comparable to creatures with low IQs such as goblins, orcs, and gnolls.

"How is it? What did you see? Mylatma hasn't been conquered by the monster army yet, right?" Ai Luolin hurried over and asked nervously.

Zuo Si shook his head gently: "Not yet, but soon.

I saw the monsters using the human captives to cut down trees and build all kinds of siege engines.

It looks like in two or three days at most, they will launch a full-scale attack on the city.

Currently, there are not many rigorously trained soldiers in Myratma, and most of them are young and middle-aged civilians temporarily recruited.

I seriously doubt whether these people would instantly collapse and run away when they were under fierce attack.

In addition, I also discovered snake people and lizard people.

Plus, many monster tribes will have a small number of priests, druids and shamans...

This means that there will be a considerable number of arcane and divine spellcasters among the enemies."

"What? Doesn't that mean the caravan's path forward has been blocked?"

The businessman Bernard opened his eyes wide and showed an expression of tension and fear.

"It's not just as simple as sealing it off. They are preparing to attack and occupy the entire city. To be honest, I didn't expect to encounter such an exciting situation less than a third of the way through this journey."

Zuo Si made a joke in a slightly self-deprecating tone.

If Wilmes didn't have a magical item he made on him, he would have wanted to give up on the red dragon and take a longer route.

"I think we should try to enter Mylatma and help the city resist the attack from the monster army." Ai Luolin suggested, holding the sword tightly in her hand.

But Bernard immediately shook his head and retorted: "No! Absolutely impossible! If Myratma is really surrounded, then the caravan crossing the Is River now would be a suicidal act."

"Mr. Employer is right. There are so many monsters on the south bank of the river, so it goes without saying what the north bank will be like. Moreover, our duty is to protect the safety of the caravan along the way, not to die for your so-called noble goal."

The mercenary captain also stood up and expressed his opposition clearly.

Not only that, the looks he and his men gave the paladin were filled with naked, undisguised disgust.

Like most adventurers who make a living on this land, the mercenaries who are only interested in profit hate these paladins who like to meddle in other people's affairs and preach to others from a moral high ground.

Even those slaves who had previously expressed their belief in Ilmater, the god of suffering, defected on the spot and refused to get involved in such a dangerous matter.

Seeing that everyone was rejecting her and unwilling to join the great cause of justice and kindness, young Ai Luolin was immediately so angry that she trembled all over, and tears even welled up in her eyes.

pain!

So sad!

Wronged!

Not understood!

For the first time, she felt the cruelty of reality and how difficult the career she had been fighting for all her life was.

No wonder Agor, the "senior" who was responsible for guiding and teaching him, emphasized this more than once.

The most important thing for a paladin has never been the passion for a just cause, but how to stick to one's own heart and bottom line in the face of adversity.

Don't give up easily no matter how great the difficulties and obstacles are.

Just when the girl in her early twenties was about to go alone to fight the city on the other side of the river, Zuo Si suddenly smiled and said, "We don't need so many people. The caravan can just stay on the south bank of the Yis River. After dark, I will have the Manticore carry a small team and land quietly in the city."

“Do you really want to take this risk? There are tens of thousands of monsters and a terrifying dragon that can bring them together.” Bernard asked in an uncertain tone.

"Because I had no choice, and the caravan had no choice either.

Only by resolving the crisis here can we continue north to our next destination - Zazesipo.

Don't worry too much. Although the situation this time is complicated and dangerous, I am not without a chance of winning."

After saying this, Zuo Si no longer paid attention to others, but got into the carriage prepared for him and began to prepare for the action after nightfall.

The rest of the people simply cleaned up the monster corpses around them, and quickly set out to find a relatively hidden place near a water source to set up camp.

When the manticore flew back, it first had a feast on the corpses of the goblins, orcs and gnolls, and then returned to its master to wait for orders.

On the other side, Zuo Si, who was hiding in the carriage, had summoned the "legacy" and received the reward for one of the completed tasks.

Without any hesitation, he took advantage of this opportunity to draw a card.

moment!

A brand new card appeared in the palm of his hand.

[Magic Card: Spell Disaster]

[LV5 blue card (cannot be upgraded)]

[Card Quality: Precious]

[Effect: When this card is activated, a terrible chaotic magic storm will be triggered with the planeswalker as the center.

All creatures affected by the storm will suffer damage from the magical storm until the storm stops or they escape the affected area.

Moreover, any spell that is cast and takes effect within the range of the chaotic magic storm will be affected and become completely different from usual.

Low-level spells may suddenly become as destructive as high-level magic, and high-level magic may suddenly become as insignificant as low-level magic.

In addition, there may be extreme situations such as random teleportation, random summoning, and random changes in the race, gender, age and appearance of all creatures including oneself.

The power and duration of the Chaos Magic Storm depends on the number and level of magic cards participating in the linkage in the graveyard.

The higher the level of the participating cards and the greater the number, the greater the range and power of the storm, and the more violent the random fluctuations.

[To use this card, you must first pay 20 points of blue magic, or 20 points of general magic.

Then, for each additional card in the graveyard that participates in the linkage, you must pay the cost equivalent to the cost of using that magic card.

[When the chaotic magic storm ends, the card will automatically enter the graveyard and wait for rebirth for ten days]

"Spell Disaster? This thing seems to be similar to the Frenzy Magic Fluctuation. However, the scope of influence and the ultra-large-scale killing effect it produces are far beyond the latter's reach."

Zuo Si looked at the new card in his hand and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Without a doubt!

This magic card is the most powerful of all the cards he has.

However, the cost of using it is not small.

If the stored mana is not enough, the true power of [Spellbane] cannot be exerted.

After putting away the only LV5 card, Zuo Si turned his attention to the changing taskbar.

[The total number of cards held reaches 60 (a bonus of one card draw opportunity, the current number of cards held: 55)]

[Make a treasure card (rewards one card draw opportunity)]

Obviously, for the first task, since Zuo Si had been frantically making all the magic he had learned into cards during this period, and some of the spells he would use frequently were made in four cards at a time, the total number of cards on hand increased dramatically.

It seems that it won’t be long before we can break through the sixty-card mark.

As for the treasure cards, they are new abilities that the planeswalker gains after his class level reaches LV5.

To put it simply, it is to make various magic items into cards, save them, and restore them when needed.

Even though it sounds a bit like taking off your pants to fart.

But in fact, magic items made into cards will be free from the original environmental restrictions.

For example, some magic items can only be effective in the environment of the Faerun Magic Network.

Once you leave this environment and go to other worlds, you will not be able to use it normally due to changes in the surrounding environment.

Now if you make that magic item into a treasure card, it will become part of the planeswalker's power and operate in the same way the planeswalker manipulates energy.

No matter how the surrounding magical environment changes, it can be used normally as in the forgotten country - Faerun.

Even give it to others as a gift or reward.

Even if one day the planeswalker leaves this world.

The person who holds the treasure card magic item can still enjoy the convenience brought by this magic item.

Of course, since the magical world where the floating city tower is located has many similarities with Faerun, magic items, potions and scrolls are basically universal.

Zuo Si was not very interested in spending a lot of mana to make treasure cards.

Just the opposite!

He would like to make more magic cards to increase the lethality of the chaotic magic storm of [Spell Disaster].
