Chapter 724: Heroic Past

"Oh, what's upset about you, why don't you say it and make everyone happy?"

Duanmu Huai carried the war hammer, looking at the man in front of him with a smile, with his game experience, most of the next thing is to enter the confession time of the BOSSβ€”β€”β€” in fact, many players complain about why each BOSS has to reveal his past and mental journey to the protagonist group before the battle, obviously we are here to kill you, but you actually sold miserably in front of us?

Of course, there are several theories about this, one is that heroes cherish heroes, after all, although people are villains and bosses, and there are countless plans, it is rare for the protagonist to be able to defeat the boss's plan all the way to him, and it is normal to waste a little time to say a few words.

Of course, this refers to the kind of thing that no one has been able to do before, if there are brave people killed in front of the boss in three days, it is estimated that he will not have the heart to tell stories back and forth.

There's also a kind of rebellion against the protagonist.,After all, these bosses are basically a routine.,Belong to the kind of miserable life.,Maybe they're betrayed and blackened.,And then they talk about these things to know with emotion.,Tell the protagonist that those guys can do this to me yesterday.,You may do this to you today.。 Instead of being unloaded and killed by them, it is better to rule the world with me, and eat fragrant and spicy food, isn't it beautiful?

Well......... How to say it, recalling the heroic ending of Luminus at the beginning, Duanmu Huai really can't say that this is wrong.

After all, heroic epics are just epics, and life still has to go on after the demon king is defeated, and how the heroes who have a prestige position and strength in this war will get along with the ruling class is indeed a question.

If you have a little political wisdom, you may be able to mix up a title or return to your hometown to get a fief.

If you don't have any wisdom, then you will be cooked by the other party's cunning rabbit and dead lackey.

That's why Duanmuhuai said that Luo Qixi was stupid, where is the hero of Neverwinter so good, Emilia is because she is the god knight of Tyre, as long as Tyre still cares for her, then Neverwinter can't do anything to her and the Temple of Tyre, and people are the kind of people who have people on their heads. But you, Lokihi, are just a down-and-out sorcerer who has nowhere to stay, and you have to learn from Kasim and the two of them to reward the wandering world, and if you have to stay in Neverwinter, then you won't want to block the sword when something happens.

Do you really think heroes are easy to be?

Of course,This kind of pre-war nonsense is generally useless.,Especially for players.,It's a waste of time.,In their eyes, the value of the boss is only in the drop.,Hurry up and hack you to death, you have to know each other and drop a few good equipment for me.,Who has time to chat with you.,Just skip it.。

IN NORMAL TIMES, DUANMU HUAI WILL SKIP DIRECTLY, BUT THIS TIME HE WANTS TO LISTEN PATIENTLY TO THE OTHER PARTY'S MENTAL JOURNEY. After all, Duanmu Huai is really curious, if this guy is behind all this, then how did he create untouchables and brainwash them so fanatically obedient?

After all, the boss will say everything when he talks before the war, but if people say HIGH, he will say it as soon as he speaks?

"Hmph, since you want to know, then I'll tell you!"

Sure enough, this BOSS couldn't escape the law of final confession, and I saw that he was also proudly talking about his past to Duanmu Huai.

He was originally from a small town outside of Neverwinter, having lost his parents and being raised by his adoptive father, but when he was sixteen years old, his hometown, that town, was attacked by a group of monsters and destroyed. His adoptive father said it had something to do with a secret they were hiding here, and he took out a piece of it and told the young man to leave the town with it and go to Neverwinter for help.

Along the way, he also met several of his companions, and was attacked again, only to realize that they had attacked him for the shards, which came from a Gies Silver Sword that a mage had snatched from the Girth Yankees a few years ago in order to deal with the Shadow King, who was trying to conquer the world. Later, the Shadow King and the mage disappeared at the same time, and the silver sword was shattered and scattered.

And now the Giss Yankees are coming to retrieve the fragments of this sword.

To be honest, although Duanmu Huai is very unaccustomed to the Giss Yankees, he thinks this logic is really very weird, it was originally someone else's thing, or you snatched it, it is normal for the Giss Yankees to come back and get it back, you just need to hand over the fragments and it will be fine. β€”β€”β€”Of course, this is not the case with this young man, even if the Ghiss Yankees have a reason, but they destroyed their own home, of course, this young man can't say "Ah, I'm sorry" and return the pieces to the other party.

So his journey became a legendary heroic adventure story, fighting with the Ghisyankees, and with the Shadow Priest who came out of nowhereβ€”β€”β€” only to learn that those Shadow Priests were all servants of the Shadow King, and this Gith Silver Sword had defeated the Shadow King, of course they didn't want to see this sword appear again, so they also came to grab the Silver Sword Fragment.

This young man is very protagonist, no matter who comes, he always doesn't give it!

Not only did he defeat his enemies, but he also earned the title of Knight of Neverwinter, a fortress, and Lord Nashr wanted him to run the fortress in preparation for the return of the Shadow King's army.

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai couldn't help but want to laugh, so you see, ordinary people getting involved in this kind of politics are the end of being used. For Lord Nashir, this young man is a good thug, and the fortress will be given to him, after all, it was originally taken back from the rebels, and he has to pay for it to be repaired at his own expense, without having to pay for Neverwinter. When the time comes, the Shadow Army will come to the rescue, and it will be this fortress that will suffer first, not Neverwinter.........

So it's not for nothing that most heroes slept away after completing earth-shattering feats, no matter how much the local people respect you, this respect can't be eaten. And the one in charge of a territory's territory is always the local lord. Are you a hero?

What if you save the world?

In fact, this reason is very simple, just look at the lords of these cities in the Northland, Nashel in Neverwinter, and Kelburn in Waterdeep. Blackrod and Erasdra of Silvermoon City are both famous adventurers and leaders in their own cities.

In other words, if they hadn't been in the city, they wouldn't have stayed here.

Old hooligans like 12345 don't also hide in their own mage tower deep in the mountains, and they don't go out on weekdays.

Therefore, many heroes either create their own forces, or create their own cities, or create their own organizations after becoming famous, all for this reason. No one wants to let others dictate their fate, and this young man obviously belongs to the kind with relatively low political wisdom, and he nodded and ran away after the other party said a few words.

If you change to Duanmu Huai, don't talk about one fortress, ten fortresses will not agree.

Is it bad to be a fire captain? If you have to stay in one place to operate, when others will use your people to disgust you, do you nod? Or nod?

If it weren't for the fact that Fei Lun would be the next front line against the erosion of the Chaos Evil God, Duanmu Huai would not bother to operate any territory here, which is one of the reasons why the relationship between the Inquisition and other forces is very cold, and it also strictly restricts the entry of others.

After all, the Inquisition itself is against the Chaos Evil God, and in order to fight against the Chaos Evil God, they will also do it when necessary. If the relationship with these forces is too good, it will be very troublesome for people to come up and cry and complain, so it is better to directly put on a face like Lao Tzu, and there will be no trouble.

Just like in martial arts, everyone only dares to find righteous sects such as Shaolin Temple or Wuyue Sword School, who dares to go to those devils and evil ways?

Isn't that boring?

Although there are many people who complain about the Night Guards for "resisting or acting hostile to the Inquisition" without mercy, almost everyone is obedient in front of the Night Guards, which shows that killing chickens and monkeys is really useful.

Well, digress, pull back.

As a "hero", the young man was dutiful as he defeated the resurrected Shadow King's army and reforged the Gith Silver Sword, intending to find the Shadow King's lair and kill it once and for all.

In fact, as a "hero", he did find the lair of the Shadow King.

But what happened next was interesting.

"They betrayed me..............."

Saying this, I saw that the man in the black armor also became cold.

"In the end, we defeated all obstacles and came to the Lord of Shadows, but they, the traitors who ventured with me, shared weal and woe, and called themselves companions, betrayed me at the words of the Lord of Shadows! They chose to side with the Shadow King! Can you get it? This kind of behavior! ”

"Uh..............."

Facing the angry man, Duanmu Huai and everyone looked at each other.

I have to say that Duanmu Huai really can't understand this kind of behavior of surrendering to the enemy in person.

It's understandable for you to say that you have a different heart for a long time, and you have already discussed with the other party that you will betray on the battlefield. But you came to the end, but you rebelled on the spot, which made Duanmu Huai a little ......... I can't understand it anymore.

To be honest, this kind of on-the-spot surrender faction really has no status, and even the boss won't like them. The reason is very simple, you can betray others today because of my mouth cannon, so maybe when someone else will let you betray me again?

This kind of thing is really bad character.

In fact, although the man almost became alone in the end, as a "hero", the anger of being betrayed made him directly wield the Gith Silver Sword and kill the betrayers and the Shadow King. However, before he died, the Shadow King also comprehended the unified signature skills of all bosses and blew himself up.

As a result, the man himself was also involved in the self-explosion and was buried by the collapsed underground palace.

But that's not the end of it.

When the man awoke, he found that his body had changed, and he had lost the last fragment of the Gith Silver Sword that had been inserted in his chest, and not only that, but he also developed a strange feeling of hunger. At first, the man didn't know what it was, but then he realized that he had a whole new ability.

An ability to devour the souls of others!

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai narrowed his eyes, he felt that the drama was coming.

That's right, the man found himself now feeling a very strange hunger, like a vampire, except that the vampire was a vampire, and he had to devour other souls to satisfy that hunger!

So in order to find out what was going on in his body, the man embarked on an adventure again.

Wait, some people may be asking here, isn't he already the ruler of a fortress, why did he embark on a journey alone?

Well, that's hilarious to say, and after that, the man also thought about going back to Neverwinter to ask for help. But when he returned, he found that the fortress that originally belonged to him had been "nationalized" again, and he was also regarded as a dead man who had died in battle with the Shadow King!

Neverwinter left him nothing but a statue for him!

"Can you imagine? My anger! ”

Saying this, the man roared more and more, perhaps remembering everything at the beginning, and he became more and more angry at this moment.

"When I returned to the home I had worked so hard to protect, it was no longer mine! Not only that, but they also adapted my story, my legend, to say that I fought against the Shadow King with my companions! This is just! Those damn bastards! They even built mausoleums for those traitors, those crooks! I gave everything for them, but in the end, all they left me with was a lie!! ”

This incident naturally made the man angry, and he also gave up the idea of asking for help from Neverwinter, he had already experienced the betrayal of his companions in person, and he was already a little black. Seeing all this in front of him at this moment, the man certainly included Neverwinter in his range of enemies.

As a result, the hero is worthy of being a hero, and in the end, the man found out all this, and it turned out that the hunger and thirst in his body were related to a curse from the god of death, Jeger!

Jaeger .........

Hearing this name, Duanmu Huai twitched the corners of his mouth.

In the world of Faerun, the gods compete for hegemony, coming and going, ups and downs, but if you want to say that the most reluctant gods, it is none other than Jeger.

This is an ancient god of death with great divine powers, and a god who has held the position of the god of death since the time of Netheril.

However, unlike most other gods who were essentially killed and then taken from the priesthood, Jaeger retired voluntarily.

That's right, he felt he had been in this position too long, retired of his own accord, and then gave up most of his priesthood to Bane, Baal, and Mirkor, while he became an acolyte, dedicated to serving every god of death!

For ordinary people, I'm afraid I don't understand why Jaeger did this, he is the oldest god of death, and he is also a god with powerful divine power, his strength is no worse than Suren or Sha'er, but he actually took the initiative to give up the priesthood, but he did not retire completely, but became an attendant, which is very incomprehensible.

It's like a department manager giving up his position to someone else, and as a result, he concentrates on becoming a department clerk, and the ghost knows what he's thinking.

However, according to the player's investigation, this old boy is actually not honest at all.

He seems to be conscientious on the surface, but as long as the god in charge of the position of the god of death can't satisfy him, he will find a way to secretly cause trouble, kill this guy, and then change his successor.

For example, Mirko took over the position of Jaeg's god of death, and then he was killed in Waterdeep in the battle of the Sages, and the next to take over this position was Shirek, but Shirek was a crazy idiot, and Jaeger saw that this mentally retarded was not good, so he secretly planned a rebellion, so that Kelanwa overthrew Shirek and changed the latter's godship of death to Kelanwao.

So you see, the god of death goes back and forth, and Jaeger is as steady as an old dog on the side, and who is more reckless can really tell at a glance.

However, it was this guy who was as steady as an old dog that gave this hero an unimaginable curse of hunger and thirst.
