Chapter 250 The most deadly dagger always comes from behind (a long chapter of 10,000 words, please subscribe)



However, his target was not the Mind Flayer's conch shell ship, but two brass dragons enslaved by psychic powers.

There was a blindingly bright arcane light flash, and the two brass dragons that were still "loyal" in the previous second suddenly regained consciousness in the next second, turned around and rushed towards the conch shell ship with tremendous rage, spewing out a ray of scorching flames.

Since brass dragons are also fire dragons, their main breath weapon is also high-temperature flames.

But unlike the red dragon, which is cone-shaped and fan-shaped, it is a relatively wide straight line, and its temperature and lethality are far inferior to the former.

If necessary, the flame breath can be converted into sleeping gas, which will only be used when you don't want to hurt anyone.

But now, the brass dragon, which had been enslaved for a long time, was obviously extremely angry, so it was spewing dragon breath madly around the conch shell ship, trying to force out the heart-destroying demon leader inside and tear him into pieces.

Obviously, under the effect of the Great Rift, the mind control originally imposed on the dragon was completely lifted in just a moment.

There are actually two ways to use this famous magic.

One is aimed at a single target, maybe a person or a magic item, but it will not affect the surrounding areas.

But there is another way that uses magic to break down everything within a radius of about twelve or thirteen meters, centered on the locked target, no matter if it is a magic effect or a magic item.

Permanent magic items will 100% instantly turn into ordinary items as long as they are within this range.

The only difference is that some may only be temporarily ineffective, while others may be directly destroyed.

Needless to say, Zuo Si chose the latter and successfully turned the two metal dragons in the good camp from enemies into allies.

"You will regret your choice!"

Realizing that he had been tricked, the Heartbreaker immediately uttered a harsh word through telepathy, and then tried to use the advanced psychic technology in the Snail Shell to bring the two brass dragons back under his control.

But unfortunately, the two dragons developed a certain resistance after being enslaved for a long time.

After several consecutive failed mind invasions, the Heart Destroyer decisively controlled the giant tentacles of the Snail Shell Ship and tried to capture the dragon that was attacking frantically.

But how could Zuo Si let the other party get his wish? He immediately formed the silver fire into the shape of arrows and hit those giant tentacles that were big enough to easily destroy a building.

The more he understood the Silver Fire that the Goddess of Magic had bestowed upon the Chosen, the more he enjoyed using it in battle.

Nothing else!

It is really convenient to use and its power is quite amazing.

As part of the essence of the Goddess of Magic's power, it can ignore many spell resistances and saves, dealing damage to enemies with pure energy.

As for what form it will take and what kind of energy it will express, it all depends on the voters' own understanding of this primitive, manic and uncontrollable energy.

There is no doubt that as a planeswalker, Zuo Si has a natural advantage over others in understanding, controlling and transforming energy.

Therefore, the Silver Fire in his hands is far more powerful than in the hands of the other elects.

Moreover, Silver Fire can be used in any occasion without worrying about any irreparable serious consequences.

This ability has a much wider scope of application than the abilities bestowed upon the chosen people by the goddess of poison and disease Talona, ​​and will not accidentally harm one's own people or innocent people.

As silver rocket arrows hit the giant tentacles of the snail-shell ship one after another, one of the thickest tentacles at the front finally suffered damage beyond its limit and broke with a bang. The front half fell from the height to the ground, causing large splashes of water and gravel.

You should know that the four super-giant tentacles at the front of the snail-shell ship are more than 50 meters long each. Even an adult dragon would probably not be able to withstand a single blow.

"Well done! Chosen! Keep going! Don't stop!" one of the brass dragons shouted in Common.

Needless to say, he recognized the Silver Flame, which was very famous throughout Faerun.

Moreover, as metal dragons of the good camp, Brass Dragons are often allies or potential allies of the Chosen Ones and Harpists of the Goddess of Magic.

So based on this point alone, the two dragons regarded Zuo Si as someone they could trust.

Zuo Si did not disappoint his two allies. While the Heart-Destroying Demon was controlling the Conch Shell Ship to deal with the Brass Dragon and had no time to take care of himself, he completed the Nine-Ring Magic [Collapsing Technique] at the fastest speed.

As the name suggests, this is a powerful energy-shaping spell.

It can cause amazing damage to the target and everything within a six-meter radius.

The snail-shell ship, which had been roasted by dragon flames for a long time and was only slightly charred, instantly cracked open under the effect of the spell, revealing a structure inside that looked like the abdominal cavity and intestines of a living creature.

Especially the dark red cell tissue that was wriggling on the ground, walls and ceiling, which made people feel their scalp tingling.

Inside these cell tissues, one can vaguely distinguish a large number of channels and circuits used to transmit spiritual energy.

The entire appearance is like a psychic spaceship with a giant conch shell octopus on its back, and it operates on things that outsiders cannot understand at all.

The mind flayers noticed that the outer wall of the spaceship had been breached, and immediately swarmed in to try to repair it.

But the brass dragon was obviously one step faster. It rolled over and swooped down from a great height. With its powerful spell resistance, it withstood the mental blast thrown by the Mind Flayer. It opened its mouth and aimed at the crack to spew out scalding dragon breath.

boom!!!!!!

The bright flames instantly poured into the passage like a tide, burning the mind flayer inside into charcoal in less than a second.

Although the Brass Dragon is far inferior to the Red Dragon, Blue Dragon, Gold Dragon, and Silver Dragon in a one-on-one battle, it is still much stronger than these ordinary octopus heads.

Moreover, the damage caused by the flame breath to the interior of the spiral shell ship caused the interruption of some energy transmission.

In the blink of an eye, this huge psychic spaceship began to shake violently from side to side.

The leader of the Heart-Destroying Demons realized that the Snail Shell would not be able to hold out for much longer if it continued like this, so he frantically manipulated those thick and powerful tentacles, trying to knock the two dragons down from the sky.

Unfortunately, before those bulky tentacles could catch either of the two dragons, he saw huge, fast-spinning iron balls flying towards him from a distance at an extremely fast speed.

The next second...

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! The five iron balls flying in the front directly hit the more vulnerable side of the spiral shell ship, and killed a lot of people in the narrow passage.

Any mind flayers or muscle tissue that block its progress along the way will be crushed into bloody debris in just a few seconds.

By the time the Heart-Destroying Demon leader reacted and activated the force field protection, it was already too late.

Although the subsequent iron balls flying over were firmly blocked outside, they were powerless to do anything about the five that flew in. They could only rely on the psychic powers of an ordinary mind flayer to barely delay their speed of destruction.

"Go to hell! You vile and filthy bastards! I will purify your bodies and souls with flames!"

The brass dragon roared and used its breath weapon to destroy the force wall on the surface of the conch shell ship, opening one channel after another for the iron balls flying around it.

In less than six or seven minutes, the snail-shell ship was severely damaged and had to fall to the ground from mid-air.

Boom!!!!!!!!!!!!! After a deafening sound, the Conch Shell crashed into the ground at close range, throwing two or three Mind Flayers out of it, knocking them dizzy.

While the opponent was completely unprepared, Zuo Si used [Talona's Favor] to knock them all out with one hammer and turned them into creature cards.

You know, it’s not easy to capture these octopus heads.

Due to the strong idealistic nature of psychic power, creatures that possess this kind of ability often have very firm wills.

Unless they are completely unconscious, they will definitely put up a fierce resistance during the sealing process, which will eventually lead to the failure of card making.

After dealing with these mind flayers, Zuo Si walked to the vicinity of the snail-shell ship and waved the magic wand in his hand to stop the iron balls from continuing to destroy the interior of the ship.

Because in his opinion, this conch shell ship is already his property and trophy, if it is really completely scrapped it would be a loss.

However, the two brass dragons did not think so. They still stayed in the air more than thirty meters above the ground, staring vigilantly at the conch shell ship on the ground.

They knew very well that ordinary mind flayers were no match for them.

The truly dangerous and terrifying one is the opponent's leader, the heart-destroying demon known as Is-Emidon.

As soon as this guy comes out, the brass dragon will swoop down immediately and use its flaming breath and sharp claws to settle the score with him for all these years of enslavement.

After all, whether it is the metal dragon of the good camp or the color dragon of the evil camp, the skill of "holding grudge" is maxed out in their bones.

The only difference is that metallic dragons are at least reasonable, but chromatic dragons are unreasonable.

Perhaps realizing that the Conch Shell could no longer provide any protection for him, the Mind Flayer Isemaidon quickly walked out with the last few living Mind Flayers.

Following behind them were more than thirty slaves dressed like elite adventurers.

After all, there can be no weaklings who can enter the seventeenth level of the underground maze.

Korgan, Rhett, Abara, Asasra, Alena and others were also among them.

It goes without saying that they are all under the enchantment of mental power at this moment, and the mental protection necklaces worn around their necks have long disappeared.

"Let my people go, and I'll give you a quick death."

Zuo Si issued the ultimatum directly without any tension, hesitation or confusion due to the hostages being in the other party's hands.

"Aren't you afraid that I will kill them?"

The Heartbreaker, Isaiah Amidon, pulled Alena over from the side and threatened her viciously.

If he had chosen someone else, Zuo Si might have considered it a little.

But the Pyromancer is a summoned creature and will never die in the true sense, so Zuo Si made a gesture of invitation without caring.

"You can try to pry open her head and eat her brain in front of me to see if I will be moved at all. By the way, I remind you that if you really do this, the consequences will be very serious."

Without a doubt!

Zuo Si's words instantly made Isaiah Midun confused.

He originally thought that even if the other party did not agree to his conditions, they would at least try to use a dispel spell to restore consciousness to these captives, just like they had released the two enslaved brass dragons before.

But Zuo Si was different. He just acted like he didn't care about his companions' lives at all.

The two stared at each other in silence for a long time. Finally, the Heartbreaker chose to take a step back and asked through telepathy: "What do you want? Wealth? Fame? Power? Various magical items? As long as we have them, we can give them to you. There is only one condition, that is to end the dispute and leave this level."

"I'm sorry, I'm a very greedy person, so I want everything, even the damaged conch ship behind you. So let's save the boring nonsense and use the simplest and most direct way to decide who can survive and get everything from the other party."

While speaking, Zuo Si directly activated a biological card hidden in his sleeve.

In the blink of an eye, four Death Eye Tyrants appeared out of thin air, and immediately opened their main eyes to shoot out conical anti-magic force fields.

Although psionics is very different from magic and divine arts, it is ultimately a kind of energy and will be suppressed by anti-magic fields.

The mind flayer's melee ability is notoriously poor.

However, as a mind destroyer, Isemiten is obviously not like his lower-level counterparts, who would lose all their abilities under the coverage of the anti-magic field.

On the contrary, he relied on his powerful spell resistance to break free from the anti-magic field and quickly converted his mental energy into a high-frequency shock wave, which crashed straight into Zuo Si's position.

At the same time, this guy did not forget to give attack orders to all enslaved creatures through mental connection.

The thirty or so controlled adventurers didn't hesitate for even a second. Those who should cast spells cast spells, those who should charge charged, and those who should shoot arrows shot arrows.

Even the two brass dragons that swooped down to attack were seriously injured by the ice storm released by a wizard standing outside the anti-magic force field.

In addition, an elf who was suspected to be a magic archer shot an arrow containing amazing necromancy magic energy, which happened to hit the chest of one of the brass dragons.

The arrow not only tore through the solid dragon scales, but also penetrated deeply into the muscles, causing terrible damage to one of the most important organs, the heart.

The entire dragon fell to the ground, with blood gushing out of its wounds wildly.

Although the dragon will not die immediately due to its vitality, it is only a matter of time if it does not receive timely treatment.

Judging from the power of the arrow and the level of enchantment, this is most likely the magic archer's most powerful skill - the Death Arrow.

Any creature that is pierced by such an arrow and does not have a high enough Constitution and Fortitude immunity will almost die on the spot, even a dragon is no exception.

Seeing this, the other one didn't dare to get close to these adventurers with high professional levels, and quickly increased its altitude and retreated.

But unfortunately, in this generally low underground environment, it is almost impossible to escape by flying.

In addition, the dragon itself was a very large target that was easy to lock and aim at. It didn't run far before it was hit in the eye by the second arrow. It fell from a great height with a scream and was besieged by several melee adventurers. It was soon covered in wounds.

"You made a mistake! Human! You shouldn't be our enemy. Don't worry, I won't kill you. Instead, I will select the strongest young one and implant it into your brain, transforming you into the best of us."

It was obvious that Isaiah Midun hated Zuo Si very much, and a terrifying murderous aura emanated from his whole body.

Because Zuo Si not only killed the secret weapon used to deal with the Githyanki - the giant mind flayer, but also killed a large number of newly transformed mind flayers, causing the "troops" he had finally replenished to be consumed for no reason.

You know, it is not easy to successfully transform a mind flayer.

First, there is the issue of the larvae - the tadpoles.

These little gadgets take at least a decade to grow, and most don’t survive to the end (the survival rate is one in a thousand or less).

If underage larvae are used without authorization, the failure rate of transformation will increase significantly.

And the conversion process takes up to a week.

This means that unless there are enough reserves of adult tadpoles and a sufficient number of slaves, it is impossible for the mind flayers to have a large population in a short period of time.

Previously, in the Githyanki retaliation, Isemidon had lost quite a number of his men.

Therefore, many of the mind flayers on the seventeenth floor are newcomers who have just completed their transformation, and their control over psychic powers is far inferior to those mind flayers who have lived for more than fifty years.

After Zuo Si's commotion, the seventeenth floor was now basically in a state of complete disarray.

If the Githyanki on the upper level discovered this and mobilized their forces to launch a fierce attack, Isemaidon would have no choice but to abandon everything and escape.

Similarly, this would also cause the plans he had spent countless thoughts and energy on to be wasted.

"Humph, wishful thinking.

Through the lessons of the Githyanki and the Githzerai, haven't you figured it out?

In fact, you mind flayers have a very huge flaw, which is that you rely too much on slaves.

Especially for a leader like you, you often have to control dozens or even hundreds of slaves by yourself, and for this you even have to create an illusion to accommodate the consciousness of those slaves.

In other words, as long as you are killed or made unconscious, these enslaved adventurers will instantly regain consciousness."

As Zuo Si spoke, he activated several magic cards to isolate the adventurers who wanted to besiege him.

"Kill me? Can you do it by yourself? I strongly doubt it." There was a hint of mockery in Isemiden's tone.

In the eyes of this Heart-Destroying Demon, there are so many enslaved adventurers around him. Even if the other party throws another big rupture, at best it can make three or five people regain consciousness, which will not have a decisive impact on the current situation.

"Haha, when did I say I was a human being? Besides, haven't you heard that the strongest fortress is always breached from the inside, and the most deadly dagger always comes from behind?"

At this point, Zuo Si suddenly paused, then shouted bluntly: "What are you waiting for? Do it!"

As the last word came out of his mouth, a mind flayer who was standing less than half a meter behind Isemiden suddenly pulled out a sharp dagger and stabbed him in the back at lightning speed.

The Heart Destroyer never expected that his subordinate would betray him. He turned around with shock and anger in his eyes that he could hardly conceal. He swung his arm and released a mental shock, knocking the latter away fiercely.

Needless to say, this Mind Flayer was the one that Zuo Si had summoned earlier using the creature card.

Since he was originally a member of the mind flayer community and was merely captured by the Githyanki, it was easy for him to blend in and hide.

I have to say, the timing of this backstab was just right.

Moreover, when Isameton pulled out the dagger from behind, he found that it was coated with neurotoxin. Not only did he not feel any pain in the wound, but it felt sore and numb and very uncomfortable.

What’s even more terrible is that within a few seconds, half of his body lost consciousness and his consciousness became increasingly blurred, making it impossible for him to concentrate on casting a spell.

He tried several times to use his psychic powers to change his form to avoid being affected by the toxin, but failed every time.

Because the poison applied on the dagger is known to be fast-acting and highly toxic.

After a while, Isameton's eyelids began to twitch, and then he slowly lost perception and awareness of his surroundings.

他这一晕过去,那些被困在幻境中的冒险者,纷纷从温柔乡中清醒过来,立刻调转矛头杀向最后仅剩的几个夺心魔。

等战斗结束的时候,剩下为数不多的夺心魔基本不是被砍成肉泥,就是主动投降变成了俘虏。

是的!

这些夺心魔投降了。

毕竟他们只是才完成转化不久的新人,对于夺心魔社区和伊思埃米顿这个摧心魔领袖尚未产生太强烈的归属感。

再加上普遍理智且明哲保身的思维方式,选择投降再正常不过了。

两个疑似技术人员的夺心魔,甚至主动当起了“带路党”,开始带着左思参观螺壳舰的内部,并且解答他提出的各种问题,

不过遗憾的是,当他们把自己知道的全部说出来之后,左思便毫不客气将其杀死,撬开颅骨取出里边受到层层保护的大脑。

当然,不光是这两个夺心魔,其余的处理方式也都差不多,不是制作成生物卡牌就是杀死并取出大脑,就连伊思埃米顿都不例外。

虽然左思很想要把这位灵能大师纳入自己的收藏。

但考虑到采取另外一种手段的收益更大,因此他果断选择了后者。

将收集到大脑丢进特殊的魔法溶液中浸泡确保细胞不会快速死亡,他这才把目光投向那两条奄奄一息的黄铜龙。

由于失血过多的关系,两条龙都已经陷入深度昏迷,并且呼吸极其微弱,仿佛随时都有可能挂掉。

尤其是插在胸腔里包裹着惊人死灵系魔法能量的箭矢,已经开始不断侵蚀心脏,连带周围的肌肉和血液都呈现出骇人听闻的黑褐色,明显不是普通低级神术所能治愈的。

必须要使用一些需要消耗价值不菲且稀有珍贵魔法材料的高级神术,亦或是直接使用九环许愿术才行。

如果是“自己人”,左思当然不会介意支付这点代价。

可问题是,他跟这两条黄铜龙压根没有半点交情,甚至连对方的名字叫什么都不知道,仅仅只是为了对抗夺心魔的临时盟友。

“嗯——我应该拿你们怎么办呢?

不如这样,就让我先来征求一下你们的意见吧。

如果你们甘愿就这样默默无闻的死去,那就吱个声;

如果不甘心想要活下来,那就请保持沉默,我会把你们制作成为旅法师的卡牌以另外一种方式永生。

当然,代价是记忆方面会有一点小小的改动。

怎么样,你们的回答是?”

左思装模作样的询问道。

但傻子都明白,这两条濒死的黄铜龙根本没办法发出任何声音,更不可能做出回答。

所以在等待了大概几秒钟过后,左思便笑着说道:“既然你们都不出声,那我就当你们默许了。别担心,我不会修改太多,仅仅只想要确保你们的忠诚。”

话音刚落,他便发动旅法师火花的力量,将两条龙变成了手里的卡牌。

与此同时,那些刚刚摆脱了精神控制跟奴役的冒险者,此刻已经乱成了一锅粥。

因为他们来自不同的冒险小队,而且有一小部分已经在这个鬼地方待了十几年。

一想到在这十几年时间里,自己一直被夺心魔控制,随时都有可能会成为对方的食物,冒险者便忍不住打了个哆嗦,浑身上下不受控制的剧烈颤抖。

这实在是有点太惊悚、太吓人了。

有些善良阵营的人意识到自己在被控制期间干了多少丧心病狂的事情,纷纷蹲在地上露出懊恼跟悔恨的表情,并认为自己手上沾染了无辜者的鲜血,是个不折不扣的罪人。

还有的因为被控制的时间太长,记忆和人格都出现了极大的变化,甚至变得有些呆呆傻傻、疯疯癫癫,连自己是谁都忘记了。

不过左思眼下显然没有功夫理会他们,仅仅是查看了一下阿莱娜、瑞特、寇根等自己人的精神状态,确认没有什么太大的问题后,便带着自己召唤的夺心魔走进了螺壳舰内部。

与想象中的阴暗狭窄不同,螺壳舰的内部不仅非常宽敞,而且没有遭到破坏的地面跟墙壁都呈现出非常精美的纹路跟图案,时不时还能看到灵能涌动时散发出来的幽光,简直就像是一件精美的艺术品。

另外,这玩意似乎是活的,哪怕受到如此严重的破坏,仍旧在尝试着进行缓慢的自我修复。

尤其是当察觉到有入侵者时,立刻便开始尝试着唤醒那些防卫力量,比如说一些粗壮的触手,亦或是灵能装置。

但这一切都被跟在后边的夺心魔制止了。

由于他原本就是这个族群中的一员,所以对螺壳舰的内部构造和操纵都非常熟悉。

没过一会儿功夫,就带着自己的主人来到指挥室兼控制室。

跟一般的魔法船控制室不同,这里并没有许多人想象中的操作按钮和拉杆,仅仅是由一些长短不一、粗细各异的柔软触须构成。

每一个触须都代表着不同的灵能力量,只有掌握灵能的夺心魔才能操控它们。

当需要螺壳舰进行位面空间跳跃或者位面旅行的时候,负责开船的人就会把两根相应的触须连接到一起,然后发动灵能进行激活。

在控制室的中间,还有一个专门为领导者或者舰长准备的巨大座椅,看起来让人感觉十分的舒服。

等走进仔细观察,左思才惊讶的发现,这玩意全部都是由各种智慧生物的头骨打造而成,是一件不折不扣的邪恶灵能物品,可以在某种程度上强化坐上去夺心魔的心灵能力。

只见召唤出来的夺心魔在控制室摆弄了一阵之后,立刻单手抚胸深深的鞠了一躬,通过心灵连接汇报道:“主人,我已经紧急封闭了所有入口,并且激活了相应的防御机制,现在这艘船是您的所有物了。”

听到这句话,左思立刻满意的点了点头:“做的不错。彻底修复好它需要多久?”

夺心魔不加思索的回答道:“如果能把水坝附近产生的能量输送过来,差不多几个星期到一两个月就能修好。不过相比起这种方式,我倒是有一个更好的提议。”

“哦?说出来听听。”

左思似乎已经预料到了什么,立刻把目光投向自己手中那个从伊思埃米顿颅骨中挖出来的大脑。

尽管这玩意已经完全失去了对外界的感知,可仍旧在持续不断像周围释放着惊人的灵能,并且不止一次尝试着从容器内逃出来。

但遗憾的是他手上的透明容器可不是普通易碎的玻璃,而是工业生产的超级钢化防弹玻璃。

别说是区区几个灵能冲击,就算是用来抵挡子弹、手雷、炸弹和RPG火箭筒都没有问题。

“事实上,就在这艘飞船上,我们的首领伊思埃米顿特地为自己打造了一个脑池。

他想要将自己转化成为主脑,然后带着所有夺心魔逃离这座被疯法师海拉斯特·黑袍控制的地下迷宫,到地表上的那座城市去建立一个秘密据点。

紧跟着再以这个据点为中心,慢慢向四周四周扩张和渗透,直到把整个城市纳入我们的掌控。

为此还专门发明了一个可以将成千上万人意识容纳进来的虚拟幻境——复刻深水城。

等控制了这座城市,便可以利用其充沛的人口和资源对外发动战争,直至征服整个世界,将脚下的星球变成我们的殖民地。

根据伊思埃米顿的描述,类似的情况在整个多元宇宙很多位面都获得了成功。

最重要的是,如果飞船有了主脑,它就相当于有了一个可以源源不断提供动力的核心,并且只要主脑没有被摧毁就能无限的进行自我修复。

这艘船上已经存储了足够多的夺心魔大脑。

所以我真诚的建议您利用伊思埃米顿的大脑完成主脑转化仪式。”

夺心魔直截了当把自己知道的全部秘密说了出来。

不得不说,这些章鱼头不管在任何世界都被视作一种巨大的威胁并不是没有道理。

他们的意识和行为模式都决定了最终目的是征服、占领和奴役整个星球所有其他智慧生物。

而且成功的例子还真是不少,其中不乏有神明的世界。

当夺心魔的数量达到一定规模,最强大的主脑联合在一起所释放出来的心灵能量,甚至可以对抗乃至杀死神。

“帮助伊思埃米顿完成转化主脑的仪式?你如何保证他会服从我的命令?”

左思眼睛里闪烁着跃跃欲试的光芒,明显对这件事情相当感兴趣。

因为每一个主脑都是夺心魔社区的核心,存储着大量的灵能知识。

要是他能掌控一个主脑,就意味着可以帮助奇物和伊莎多拉提供更多可供学习的灵能知识和技巧,甚至更进一步制造出灵能物品和装备。

"It's very simple. You just need to perform some manipulations in the transformation ritual to completely erase Isemidun's consciousness and only retain the knowledge recorded in his brain. Then, create a main brain that obeys you 100%, and transform it into a card before it becomes powerful enough."

The mind flayer gave a solution without hesitation.

It has to be said that the benefits of having an "insider" are huge and unimaginable.

Zuo Si had experienced this once when he captured and controlled the Githyanki starport on the previous level.

Now he found the feeling of déjà vu again.

Especially for creatures like the mind flayer, their loyalty to their own race and ethnicity is far beyond outsiders' imagination.

Therefore, they will not be on guard or vigilant against the same kind around them.

This is also why the guy in front of him can easily use a poisoned dagger to successfully sneak attack a psychic master like Isemiten.

Zuo Si stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then quickly nodded in agreement, "Okay. Let's do as you say. But I have to state in advance that this main brain must be strictly monitored, and absolutely no accidents can occur."

"Please rest assured, I will make sure that the number of mind flayers under your control is always greater than the number under its control." The mind flayer gave the guarantee solemnly.

"In that case, let's get started." Zuo Si gave the order directly.

"First, I need you to summon at least six companions to assist. Second, the entire ceremony must not be disturbed by any external factors. Finally, we also need to connect the energy generated by the dam. Otherwise, with the current state of this spaceship, it will be difficult to support it until the end of the ceremony."

The mind flayer made three demands in one breath.

Zuo Si did not even hesitate and immediately met all his requests.

Soon, with the assistance of summoned creatures, a large amount of preliminary preparation work began to proceed in an orderly manner.

However, it is obviously not an easy task to transfer energy from the dam, and it will take at least several hours.

As for the adventurers outside who were originally controlled and enslaved, most of them immediately set out in groups to return to the surface after figuring out the situation.

Only a few of them have completely lost their memories. They can't remember who they are or who their relatives and friends are. They still stay where they are with a confused look on their faces.

Of course, compared to those guys who are completely crazy and have lost their rationality, they are still lucky.

Zuo Si saw with his own eyes several lunatics rushing directly towards the entrance to the next level. He estimated that the possibility of their survival was definitely less than one percent, but he did not stop it from happening.

In his opinion, it would be better to die early and get relief than to live in a muddle-headed way like that.

Just as Zuo Si was standing in the open space outside the conch shell ship to supervise the progress of the project, the elven archer who had almost shot two brass dragons with the terrifying [Death Arrow] suddenly walked over from a distance and said in a very shy voice: "Um...thank you for saving me from the slavery of the mind flayer."

"You're welcome. I just did it for fun. After all, I don't want to face the terrible arrows you shoot." Zuo Si responded in a half-joking tone.

The ageless male elf had a look of dejection on his face, and he quickly bent down and bowed deeply: "I am so sorry. By the way, where are the two brass dragons? Are they still alive?"

"Don't worry, although they were seriously injured, they are still alive." Zuo Si said casually to comfort them.

But when the Elf Magic Archer heard this, his originally dim eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately asked excitedly: "Really? Are they really still alive? I shot the arrow of death!"

"Of course. They are giant dragons, and their vitality is much stronger than that of ordinary humanoid races. I am very curious, who are you and how can you shoot such powerful enchanted arrows?" Zuo Si looked at the other party with interest.

Exquisite and luxurious high-level enchanted chain mail...

Dragon boots made from the leather of an adult dragon and magical power...

A super agility belt that can increase agility by 12 points at once...

Gloves that can greatly increase the wearer's ranged weapon accuracy and critical hit rate...

Finally, there is a legendary compound bow with arcane aura that is powerful enough to blind people...

All of this is enough to prove that the identity of the elf in front of him is definitely not simple.

And judging from its skin color and appearance, it is a sun elf which is even rarer than a moon elf, and can also be called a golden elf.

He has bronze skin, golden hair, and even his pupils are golden, hence his name.

In the continent of Faerun, most of the sun elves have gone to the Isle of Evermeet in the outer sea, so they rarely appear within the sight of humans.

Even if they appear occasionally, it often means shouldering some important responsibilities and missions.

Unlike the more informal branches and subraces of the other elves, the sun elves adhere to a rigid elitism and hierarchy.

The future development path of every person within it is determined from the moment he or she is born.

The noble families who are the upper ruling class can all trace their ancestry back to the First Crown War ten thousand years ago.

They are the most arrogant and conceited elves, but also the most powerful, with more than three-digit high-level wizards.

You should know that the high-level wizards of the elves are not modern wizards who rely heavily on magic networks, but powerful people who use ancient magic rituals to tear entire continents apart and create incredible magical wonders such as magic mazes.

This is why, even though humans have become the undisputed overlords of the continent of Faerun, they still maintain a certain degree of awe towards the elves.

No individual or force has ever dared to approach their last paradise - Yongju Island.

Of course, except for the Spider Goddess and the dark elves under her control.

After all, this is a conflict within the elf race.

Many Sun Elves firmly believe that they are the only guardians and heirs of the legacy of the elven god Corellon in the material plane.

As for other elves, they should obey their leaders unconditionally.

"I...I can't remember anything now."

The Elf Demon Archer gave a bitter smile that was uglier than crying.

At this moment, he looked so confused and helpless. He was obviously strong enough to kill a giant beast at the top of the food chain like a dragon with a single arrow, but he had no idea who he was or why he was here.

Most importantly, he did not wear any family emblems that symbolized his identity, which was absolutely abnormal among the Sun Elves.

Of course, it is not ruled out that it was worn before, but lost in the battle or taken away by the Mind Flayer and thrown into an unknown corner.
