Chapter 114 The First Servant
"Dib, I'm afraid it's not enough to be more vigilant. If you can't eliminate the doubts in the hearts of the tribesmen, the captured blood food will be less and less. By then, the three-headed snake god Kumera will The protection of our tribe will disappear! When the black tide comes."
Fingart said in his unique hoarse voice.
"Hiss!" The expressions of the middle- and high-level fishmen warriors changed immediately after hearing this.
This situation had never happened when the old fishman prophet was around, but as the tribe's strength was greatly reduced this time, there would be a situation where blood and food were not enough.
"Then what do you think we should do, Fingart!" Faced with Fingart's obviously disruptive behavior, Dib suppressed his inner anger and said in a deep voice.
"You can't just talk but don't do it. Tomorrow, I will lead the warriors of the tribe to search for the missing tribesman team. I want to see the people alive and the corpses! The most important thing is to eliminate the fear of the tribesmen!" -
And
Li At this time, Cha was thinking about a problem. The fishmen were fighting among themselves. This seemed to be a good opportunity.
The fishman prophet can speak Akkadian, a wizard language widely spread in modern times. It can be reasonably inferred that the two disciples of the prophet, Dib and Fingart, must also speak Akkadian to a greater or lesser extent. .
Can I reach cooperation with one of them?
While thinking, Richard crossed his arms and paced back and forth in the cave.
The specific plan was constantly studied and judged in his mind. After a while, Richard generally thought of a plan, but the specific content needed to be carefully considered.
——Early
the next morning, Richard, who had just completed a Rodrigo Meditation Cycle, received in his mind a warning signal from the Soul-Eating Demon Spider, saying that it was a large number of murloc warriors, and began to search around the murloc camp. .
Richard was immediately overjoyed when he heard this. He really got what he thought of.
Such a large-scale operation by the murloc tribe must have a commander, if the commander happens to be one of the two disciples of the old murloc prophet.
Obviously, the whereabouts of the high-level magic stone can be known with a high probability.
This was also part of Richard's plan last night. The best case scenario was to capture or kill the disciples of the Murloc Prophet alive.
Of course, Richard has also considered that if it doesn't work, a high-level fishman warrior can do it, but there will be more follow-up steps and the whole process will be more troublesome.
Immediately, Richard walked out of the cave, intending to confirm who was the commander of the other team?
With a wave of the Bone Summoning Staff, as the pale green light on the ground lit up, two skeleton archers and skeleton berserkers crawled out of the reverse pentagram formation. Richard took the skeleton guards guarding the entrance of the cave. Otherwise, a group of five people immediately rushed to the direction of the Soul-Eating Demon Spider.
When he was about to approach the murlocs, Richard arranged for a skeleton archer to hide in an extremely thick dragon fern tree. The trunk was tens of meters high, with intertwined branches and wide leaves. If the murloc warriors under the tree, If you don't look up carefully, you won't be able to find the skeleton archer hidden among them.
After settling in, Richard stayed away from the fishmen's search.
After a while, a large number of murloc warriors searched the area sporadically. Richard quickly used the zero-level witchcraft undead vision and borrowed the vision of the skeleton archer on the top of the tree to find the suspected A grey-robed fishman who is a disciple of the fishman prophet.
This made Richard overjoyed. He thought that a high-level fishman warrior would most likely be responsible for this action. Unexpectedly, the only two prophet disciples were also dispatched.
This makes Richard's plan go directly to the optimum!
Now, I just don't know if it's Dib or Fingart?
Richard continued to observe through the undead vision. As the gray-robed fish man gradually approached, his face gradually became clearer.
But to be honest, in the eyes of humans, it is difficult to distinguish the appearance of most fish-men. This is probably as difficult as distinguishing between fish-men and humans.
However, comparing the differences in the clothing of the two prophet disciples in the memory of the double-sword fish man, Richard could basically conclude that the gray-robed fish man in front of him should be Fingart, not Dieter.
Because one of Dieter's iconic features is a fish bone staff that is very similar to the fish-man prophet.
Fingart was holding a short staff, and the gray-robed fish man in front of him was holding a short staff.
Now that the target has been determined, the question before Richard is how to capture or kill the opponent alive.
There were nearly thirty or forty fish-men warriors in front of him, and there was strength in numbers. If Richard fought hard, he wouldn't have a chance, but the risks and losses would be relatively high.
Richard's mind changed and he immediately had a general idea.
Quickly arriving at a nearby valley, Richard buried a bundle of Fire Dancing Stars and Silver Moon Dust in the bushes at the entrance of the valley, and carefully covered them.
This location is the only way to enter the valley here.
Richard tied two tubes of Fire Dance Stars to the arrows of the two skeleton archers, and then let them hide on the high slopes on both sides of the valley.
He, along with the skeleton berserkers and skeleton guardians, was waiting in a secret place hundreds of meters away in the valley.
After everything was arranged, Richard ordered the Soul-eating Demonic Spider to control the back-shell octopus, quickly killed an ordinary fishman warrior, and dragged its body slowly into the valley.
After a while, the fishman warriors discovered that someone was missing, and quickly followed the traces of the shell-backed octopus to the entrance of the valley.
After a while of exchanges, several double-sword fishmen took the lead, followed closely by dozens of ordinary fishmen, and rushed into the valley aggressively, while the gray-robed fishman and another senior fishman warrior walked away. At the end of the battle.
At this time, many fish-men warriors have discovered the back-shell octopus that killed their compatriots, and are fighting with the back-shell octopus controlled by the soul-eating spider. The rough-skinned and fleshy back-shell octopus is not afraid at all. This kind of attack by ordinary fishmen warriors.
Whether it was arrows or swords, they were all bounced off by the tough epidermal tissue when they struck its thick skin.
If the fish-man with two swords could hit him with a slash, he would be able to scratch his skin a little, but it would be far from damaging his muscles and bones.
The murloc warriors also relied on the strength of their numbers to besiege the back-shell octopus without fear. They probably thought that when the prophet's disciples and senior clan warriors arrived, they could quickly kill the "culprit" in front of them.
"It seems that this should be the culprit behind the disappearance of the tribesman team the day before yesterday. However, monsters like the back-shell octopus usually only come out to look for food at night. How come this one in front of me actually came out during the day? It's really weird Strange." Fingart said to the senior fishman warrior beside him.
"Gru, it seems that you have to take action. Later, I will cast witchcraft on this back-shell octopus to lower its defense! From now on, it's up to you." Fingart He looked at Gru encouragingly and said.
"Yes, Master Fingart!" Gru patted his chest heavily.
After saying that, Gru, who was tall and holding a big knife in his hand, took big steps and went out!
The ordinary fish-man warriors who were besieging the back-shell octopus immediately opened a passage in the middle to allow a high-level fish-man warrior named Gru to join the battle.
When Richard saw it, his eyes lit up. The opportunity he had been waiting for finally came.
Suddenly, on a high slope on one side of the valley, a skeleton archer suddenly stood up and shot an extremely accurate arrow at Fingart, who was performing some kind of witchcraft to lower the defense of the shell-backed octopus. There is also a hint of red.
Fingart noticed the arrow immediately and immediately stopped casting the spell. A huge water ball instantly appeared around him, wrapping himself in it.
"Boom!" A violent explosion sounded!
This sudden explosion came from behind, causing many murloc warriors fighting in the front to look back hurriedly. They saw their prophet disciple Fingart walking out of the water ball with a calm expression, and his robes were not damaged at all. Dading. "Over there!" Without Fingart's command, he saw only one fishman with two swords, and he took the initiative to lead several ordinary fishmen warriors and rushed towards the skeleton archer who had just shot an arrow.
Suddenly, there was another sharp sound breaking through the air from the other side. This time, a trace of panic flashed in Fingart's eyes, and he quickly rushed forward in a bit of embarrassment.
He had just used the defensive witchcraft in the short staff.
"Boom!" There was another violent explosion, which caused the senior fishman warrior named Gru just now to stop waving the big knife in his hand. He had no time to take care of the back-shell octopus and turned his head to look at Fingart in surprise. at.
This time, Fingart was no longer as calm as before. He had a head of grass on his head and his gray robe was splashed with mud.
Richard, who was hiding aside and observing, felt relieved and thought to himself, "This is it, a third-level wizard apprentice, and it seems that there are not even two witchcraft props!" These two
arrows are considered a test to test the strength of the prophet's disciples. Only by being strong can we make follow-up plans, but obviously, the opponent's strength is weaker than Richard expected.
After two explosions, a small number of the fishmen warriors who had been fighting fiercely with the back-shell octopus at the front came back and closely guarded the prophet's disciple Fingart. The location where they gathered happened to be near the bomb planted by Richard.
Now, it's Richard's turn to appear!
"Whoops!" A sharp sound broke through the air. Just as the fishmen present looked at the steel arrow that obviously missed the target and hit the bushes, they let out a heavy sigh in their hearts.
But the next second.
"Boom!!!" A much more violent explosion sounded than before, and where dozens of fishmen originally stood, there was now only a huge crater several meters deep and more than ten meters in diameter.
Most of the fish-men warriors who were guarding Fingart had been blown up and their bones were gone. A few had their arms and legs broken and were still wailing on the sidelines.
Even though Fingart had his own defensive magic and many fish-men warriors to block the blast wave, at this moment, he fell to the side and vomited blood.
This explosion made the senior fish-man warrior Gru and other fish-man warriors who were fighting the shell-backed octopus in front of them extremely anxious.
On one side, his prophet disciple Fingart was attacked, and on the other side, a giant monster was fighting with him, making him completely unable to escape.
Richard ordered the skeleton berserkers and skeleton guardians to charge directly at the opponent's senior fish-man warrior Gru.
And he used the possessed skeleton, switched back and forth between the two skeleton archers, and used the skills of the master archer to kill the scattered fish-man warriors.
The senior fish-man warrior Gru, who could barely compete with the back-shell octopus, was killed one by one by his fellow fishmen who were helping him. After a while, they were also enlarged by the back-shell octopus. Tentacles, hanged alive!
At this time, Richard emerged from the bushes on the side, and Shi Shiran walked towards Fingart who was lying on the ground.
However, in order to avoid accidents, Richard still cautiously summoned the four undead summons to his side.
"You should understand what I'm saying, right?" Richard said word for word in Akkadian, the wizarding language commonly used in modern times.
"You understand!" Fingart looked at the human suddenly appearing in front of him in shock, opening and closing his lips and saying.
"As long as you understand, if you want to survive, just hand over a trace of your soul origin and let me plant a soul mark on you." Richard said calmly.
"This is absolutely impossible. I would rather die!" Fingart said with firm eyes.
"Oh, would you rather die than be the prophet of your tribe? As long as you agree to let me plant the soul mark, I will have a way to make you ascend the throne of the prophet, how about it?" Richard tempted.
"How do you know about this?" Fingart's originally protruding fish eyes became even more protruding due to surprise!
"You don't have to worry about how I know, whether I agree or not!"
"No, this is betrayal!"
"Are you really unwilling? What a pity. In fact, I can achieve my goals even if you don't cooperate with me, just a little bit Please be more troublesome." Richard smiled slightly.
At this time, the senior fishman warrior Gru, who had been killed by the Octopus, walked towards Fingart step by step.
"I know. You are a necromancer among humans, an extremely evil necromancer!" Fingart was in a panic at this moment. He thought of the terrifying rumors about human necromancers.
Because he mistakenly believed that Gru, controlled by the Soul-Eating Demon Spider, had been transformed into a walking corpse by Richard.
At this time, Fingart gave up and immediately agreed!
"I agree, I am willing to surrender! Humble Fingart, I am willing to be your servant!"
Because he knew that even if he did not cooperate, his soul might be taken out by the necromancer in front of him for soul searching, and his body would be made. Become a walking corpse.
Instead of doing this, it’s better to be obedient!
Richard did not expect that Fingart would agree so easily after seeing Gru controlled by the Soul-Eating Spider.
After Fingart handed over a trace of his soul origin, Richard quickly planted a soul mark on him.
You know, after handing over a trace of his soul origin and being planted with a soul mark, Fingart has essentially become Richard's slave.
As long as Richard has a thought in his mind, he can directly annihilate Fingart's soul through the soul mark.
It can be said that the other party's life or death depends on Richard's thoughts.
According to legend, only extremely rare soul-splitting witchcraft, or some long-extinct witchcraft, can offset or weaken the effect of the soul mark, but in general, the soul will be severely damaged.
Obviously, the Fingart in front of him, a prophet disciple of a small fishman tribe, definitely does not have this kind of secret skill.
"Master!" Seeing Fingart standing aside respectfully, Richard felt that he could be a little bolder and change his plan.
