The lightsaber was slightly longer than a one-handed sword, and its dull silver handle was a blade flowing with reddish-gold light. It vibrated at a very high frequency, and those who were closer could always hear a humming sound similar to a magnetic field. Although it was shaped by primordial magic, the lightsaber was not invisible and intangible. It was shaped by a similar force field.
Chen Ang was therefore able to shake off the weapons that were stabbing at him, and when the balance of the two Saint Samurai's bodies was broken in this way, he followed the small flaws they revealed and stabbed them. He used the bodies of two people to block the Priest's divine spells, then stabbed the lightsaber from under the ribs and quickly swept across the second person's throat.
When the Saint Samurai was cut along with his plate armor, a very subtle force came from the hilt, like a hot knife cutting through butter, but not a drop of blood splashed out. The wounds caused by primordial magic were dehydrated and shrunk because of the powerful radiation, and where the plate armor was damaged, the steel slightly melted, causing the wounds under the plate armor to mix with the molten iron.
In theory, if the brain was not directly damaged, such a wound would make him struggle for a long time.
Without rapid blood loss and damage, it was difficult for the injured to die immediately. They would feel severe pain from the nerves and suffer in this pain until they died. Like a very cruel punishment, being cut at the waist by the lightsaber, the injured might struggle for three days before dying because of organ failure.
With the help of the Priest, it was possible to alleviate the pain, but most still could not escape death. Healing divine spells were not effective against the radiation of primordial magic, and even "Heal Fatal Injuries" could not reverse the fate of their death from radiation disease. Because the magic pollution brought by the lightsaber would make them suffer forever.
Therefore, when Chen Ang killed someone, the moment he stabbed his sword into the enemy's body, his hand that was holding the sword would tremble slightly, causing the high-frequency vibration of primordial magic to quickly destroy the human body's circulation, so that the enemy would die silently and painlessly.
Watching their companion's body fall unconscious, the few people who came later roared.
The Priest and the Saint Samurai, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, cooperated well. The Priest swung his hammer down with a backhand, exerting the weight of the warhammer to the extreme, but there was still a hint of tenacity hidden in the fierceness, and the power suddenly burst out when it hit. It could smash an enemy into meat paste through a layer of heavy armor. The priest's muscles contracted into small pieces, and his strength was as taut as a spring. When he released his strength like this, it was close to a thousand pounds of hammer force.
This Priest's Warrior class must be very high! War hammers were also very effective against one-handed weapons.
However, Chen Ang was no longer the person he used to be. He only needed to distort the Cleric's sense of space for a moment before he smashed his warhammer onto the teammate beside the Cleric. Flesh and blood exploded like fireworks. The right side of the heavily armored comrade's body was lowered, blood and flesh splattering out from the gaps in the armor. A priest's powerful perception was nothing in the face of the distortion of origin power.
"High Charm Humans!" Chen Ang softly recited the three words.
His left hand was shrouded in a magical glow, as if he had really used this spell. Even though there were many flaws, the interference of the Force made the paladin behind the priest firmly believe in the scene in front of him. He grieved and stabbed his two-handed sword into the back of the priest. To get rid of the charmed and controlled companions!
But the minister's incredulous look brought him back to himself.
"No!" The paladin roared in despair, and his hand holding the sword trembled. He panicked and wanted to support the priest's swaying body, but was stopped by the remaining two companions.
"Manipulate the body!" Chen Ang's voice was still calm. He threw a magical glow onto the priest's body. Of course, it was also the Force that allowed them to see the "magical glow." When the two priests were vigilantly watching the body on the ground and Chen Ang, the paladin's sword pierced their hearts from behind.
Chen Ang sighed and said, "Unstable will, Force Confusion!" Dispelling the paladin's Force Confusion, he ignored the soulless paladin and walked straight past him. Among all the paladins, the youngest one he chose was not like the other middle-aged paladins, who had rich experience and firm faith.
He was too young, and passion and faith were his greatest strength. It was also his most fatal weakness. When his mistake caused the death of his companions, the paladin whose will was shaken made a fatal mistake. Losing focus on the battlefield wouldn't just harm himself. It would also endanger the lives of his companions.
The sky of Waterdeep City was getting darker and darker. Elminster could feel that this wasn't a normal night. He found some clues in the shadows of the surrounding buildings. In the deepest and darkest place, a distortion that made his hair stand on end was happening. His silver flames trembled violently. The power of the Chosen was warning him.
Faint murmurs rang in his ears, like the sighs and lingering of a lover. The voice from the shadows had the power to penetrate deep into his heart, causing his mind to be thrown into chaos. He seemed to hear many names in his memory, and their whispers and murmurs.
The shadow was everywhere, affecting his will. Elminster knew that this was a bad joke by the Lady of the Night. As Mystra's mortal enemy, the Goddess of Shadows didn't seem to want to let him go. However, he wasn't afraid of the Lady of the Night's schemes and plots. This wasn't the first time something like this had happened in his long life.
What worried him the most was another voice, a voice from the human heart.
He could feel that as Chen Ang got closer, the power grew stronger and stronger, and the temptation gradually tainted his soul. What truly terrified him was that he had forgotten about 'that thing'. Elminster couldn't remember what it was that was tempting him. Where did he put 'that thing' that he had forgotten about?
"Darth Morgoth!" Elminster's voice echoed in the haze, his aura like thunder. His voice rumbled like thunder, dispersing the whispers in the shadows.
"Your power is like the abyss, but I can see the darkness beneath the stars. It contains warmth and peace, but it also hides true terror and danger, just like those ancient legends. Where the light of the gods cannot reach, where the stars cannot shine, is your territory! "
"Then why does the darkness invade the light of the stars? With your greatness, you should know that everything has a promised land, just like the rotation of the sun and moon, the alternating light and darkness. I know that all things will return to darkness, but the dawn will never fall … "Elminster caught his breath, standing at the forefront of the storm and looking straight at the lonely shadow. His loud voice trembled slightly," This is the land of dawn that the gods have promised, darkness cannot pass through! "
Elminster's left and right swords clashed, and a powerful ray of light tore through the sky and earth. The thick clouds rolled away, and sunlight shone down from above, dyeing Deepwater Castle golden. The Weave unfurled and folded under his sword, and the powerful rays of sunlight chased away the shadows and darkness.
Mystra's divine power tore a hole in the Cataclysm Lock's power, and the Weave absorbed the surging primordial mana to seal and infect the power of the lock. At least five gods' radiance attacked the lock at the same time, covering Deepwater Castle with their power.
"Perhaps you think so, but my knowledge tells me that there has never been a promised land. Never! " Chen Ang's voice seemed to come from far away, "There is no truth, and all existence is reasonable. You are like a Dostoevsky hero, controlled by your nihilistic gods. You did not hesitate to destroy me, as if it was a pure act of divinity. "
"However, you should think deeply. When the hearts of the people blindly follow the so-called truth of the gods, remember that there is no absolute truth in this world. When the actions of the people are bound by the dogma of the gods or the inherent knowledge of the gods, remember that any restraint can be broken. Darkness was not born to serve the light, it came to this world for a reason. "
The blasphemous words incurred the wrath of the gods. In the light that tore through the sky, the darkness swayed like a lonely boat, but it was as firm as a rock, resisting the surging tide of positive energy. Chen Ang seemed to be dismissive. He did not even look up at the shining Kingdom of Gods in the sky. Instead, he continued in a calm voice.
"Laws cannot be blasphemed? Or is that the order is the truth? "
"The gods have described the truth of this world to you, and they have set the rules for everything. Even the Abyss and Hell are in their places in order. This world is like a set of precise gears, operating with fixed rules and order. It even makes you think that this is the world itself! But there is always a deeper truth hidden under the truth, and I have never stopped pursuing the truth. "
"When the order collapses, when the throne shakes, and the false truth breaks into ruins, the truth will be revealed. Only movement and change can bring us closer to the essence of things, "Chen Ang said with a smile," Remember, everything is false, and everything is allowed! "
Elminster could feel his silver flames emitting the strongest anger, as if they were going to burn him to ashes. The light of the gods made the sun pale.
The gate of Mountain Paradise appeared on Deepwater Castle, and the surging ocean of positive energy seemed to have gone out of control. Elminster could feel the light of Pyro and the other gods wavering, and the brilliant ocean surged endlessly from the sky. At this moment, he clearly realized that they had fallen into an elaborate trap.
Mountain Paradise was shaking, and the violent ocean of primordial magic slapped the plane. The origin power of light and kindness flowed along the river of souls and circled the peak of Mountain Paradise. It turned the place into an ocean of light.
At the core of the ocean, the purest radiance condensed into three gems, tearing apart part of the essence of heaven and becoming their form.
The three shining diamonds fell from the sky! (To be continued.)
