Compared with the later mages of Toril, the great arcanists of the Nese Empire who still had the temperament of slave owners were much more cruel.
Until now, the toad that cannot be killed is still imprisoned in the ruins of the Tower of Stars in Faerûn.
Bazim, who can be compared to the mother of slaadi, has several lieutenants with intermediate powers, and they all knew where he was from the beginning.
However, until now, Bazim is still unable to get out of a small, dark and broken room in the ruins... It was created using the energy of twelve Mysel cores and twelve great arcane masters.
A cage built with all the strength of the body.
Unless Bazim can recruit all the slaad lords and work together wholeheartedly to save him, then there is still some hope for him to escape.
However, this is absolutely impossible.
It is also a disgusting existence for its kind, but the mother of the slaad is still concerned about the continuation of the race!
But Bazim only wants to burn the whole world to death, including the strong men of his own race... He hopes that he is the only lord.
Speaking of which, this guy didn't have any chance of escaping.
For example, if Toril has two spell plagues in a row.
The two spell energy blanks are still an opportunity for old toads like Bazim who have existed since ancient times.
But, it is absolutely impossible once.
Only the lines formed by intersections can break through weak points.
Hill suddenly felt better when he thought of this... Edna's appearance made this opportunity even more impossible.
If Bazim didn't get this opportunity, he might have to stay in that small dark room until the day Toril exploded completely.
Bazim couldn't kill him because of his identity as a slaadi... No matter who killed him, he would be resurrected in the Sea of Chaos soon.
The Grand Arcanists would not let him go so easily.
And to deal with this kind of thing, eternal imprisonment is the only way.
As for the other idiot arcanists who got involved with Bazim and used mages as nourishing soil... the great arcanists were the first ones to figure out how to sell the souls of living creatures to the devil.
The methods of using soul stones made from the souls of pigs, dogs, cattle and sheep to impersonate human soul stones were also developed by this group of guys.
Therefore, the results of those idiots can be imagined.
The most common place for those broken stones stuffed with their souls is in the bodies of breeding sows... and can even make them completely empathize with them.
That is, an inheritance that will never stop until their souls are completely broken and even their essence no longer exists.
Since then, no one, not to mention evil gods, devils and demons, has ever thought about it again, even if that thing is really tempting.
Just like Zhentarim at this moment, and Ben behind him will not take the initiative to make the existence of this thing clear, even the evil god and their men will work hard to ensure that the news related to this thing is kept as low as possible.
Side story.
Human greed is endless. Even if they know how terrible the consequences will be, they will still take the risk for temporary benefits.
Especially, in this world that seems to value mages very much, but is also used to sacrificing mages.
Talona, are you really crazy?
Hill sincerely suspected that she had lost all reason when she chose to leave Shar and work under Bane.
Although Shar has been playing a balancing game between Talona and Lauvita, and she also destroyed Talona's plot against Lauvita once... But it is obvious that she is the one who is being protected more!
Lovita should be the one who turned around and left first!
As a result, when the sadistic goddess was still hesitating and worried about being tortured to death by Shar, Talona jumped the gun first.
Few people in Toril can understand Talona's mind.
Although it is chaos, you should not know how to fear the strong!
If Ben really had the ability to compete with Shar, he wouldn't have to squat in the star realm every day and escape at any time!
The only advantage of following Ben is that Ben will indeed provide benefits other than shelter. Unlike Shar, it is good to accept their existence. It is basically impossible to get anything from her.
Moreover, she will only come out to judge when everything is over. No matter how bad the beating is in the middle, Shar will not care.
But...at least at the end, Shar can come out to save her life!
Ben would benefit from it, but if Lauvita could really kill Talona, Ben would definitely not come out and waste his divine power.
Although there have always been people on Toril's side who suspected that it was Talona who hated the beautiful goddess the most because of her cursed eternally aging face... But could she even dare to hate Shar?
If she really chooses to backstab Shar for such a ridiculous reason, then she is indeed not far from true madness.
In Hill's impression, including in his inherited memories, the most chaotic and craziest real-life creature is Sundam, the mother of the slaadi.
But even for Sendam, it can be seen from the situation when she appeared that she can actually analyze the pros and cons... Just because she doesn't care doesn't mean she doesn't understand.
When she needs to understand, she will suddenly become sober.
And Sundam will not do what Talona is doing now!
No wonder the Talona believer kept this matter in his heart and dared not say a word even though he had said everything before.
If he hadn't discovered that Zhentarim was clearly communicating with William on behalf of Bane, and intended to treat him and Talona as part of the deal, this guy would never have spoken out.
Of course he knew that this matter would be exposed sooner or later... It can be seen from the attitude of the undead that it would be a matter of time before the Tower of Despair was overthrown.
But he was counting on William to focus most of his attention on Bane, the most hated person in Toril, and ignore his existence, giving him a chance to escape before everything happened.
However, the followers of Talona were shocked to find that Zhentarim, who they thought was included in his calculations, had already prepared a big move to kill him with a backhand.
Of course, Zhentarim was actually the one who was tricked and deceived by his complicated chief god, otherwise he would never have let his body suffer so much.
But now Talona believers have lost the ability to think about the causes and consequences, and can only choose to expose the most terrifying secrets to save their own lives.
Although after doing so, he would definitely never return to Toril.
But, as long as he can live, does he still have to consider where to live?
If he really can't survive, then the Styx is more suitable for him than the kingdom of God where his main god will definitely be shattered to pieces.
The Talona believers whose memories still remain in Toril, the city of death that was not controlled by Kelanvor and allowed devils and demons to come and go, still have a little confidence in the days after their death.
But if he becomes Talona's petitioner, he will have no chance at all... After the soul essence is integrated into the Kingdom of God, even if he doesn't care whether the living one is himself, he will not be able to have another life.
The Talona believer who exposed this most shameless and disgusting secret buried his head deeply between his legs, not daring to look back at all.
As a Torilian, he actually knew very well that what he and his accomplices in the Tower of Despair helped Talona do was an evil thing that even the most evil devils and demons found unbelievable.
Even if he chooses to let the mage of this world preside over the birth ceremony of the Fruit of Wisdom because he knows the seriousness of this matter, the sin he will bear will not be less.
However, when he was sure that this world belonged to the devil and evil gods, he took a chance.
Although he did not take the Fruit of Wisdom because of his scruples, the moment the fruit ripened, a strange aroma would burst out... It could fill people's energy and blood, and not only heal all hidden wounds, but also
Randomly increase some strength and stamina.
As long as he didn't eat, he could convince himself that he hadn't reached that point yet... but he actually still knew what he had done.
It didn't matter when no one knew about it, but among the crowd, he still couldn't control himself and didn't dare to feel the disdainful looks others looked at him.
Is there any Torilian who doesn't realize the viciousness of this matter?
Although the great arcane masters of the Nese Empire did not leave many things to future generations, the endings of those related to the Fruit of Wisdom have always existed deep in the memories of high-level humans.
The story of the Starry Sky Tower has never really been a secret.
What is kept secret is only the method of making the wisdom fruit and its uses.
William took a deep breath and exhaled it heavily. It took him a long time to get rid of the breath that was blocked in his chest.
He didn't want to look at the face of Talona's believer at all, and just looked at Zhentarim steadily: "Ban, is it true that he was not involved in this matter?"
The Zhentarim hesitated for a few seconds before answering simply: "My lord said that if he really has anything to do with this matter, then let the nonsense written by you undead come true!"
Then he couldn't help but ask: "What story? Can you kindly share it with me?"
William glanced at him... Although this Zhentarim behaved heartlessly, paying more attention to the gossip related to his master than the fruit of wisdom, but Ben dared to swear on that book, William still somewhat believed that the tyrannical king did not
attended.
Although the books on the undead are full of random speculations and inexplicable exaggerations, because the guys who wrote the books follow the main gods of Trasil, the God of Knowledge, they can't write things that don't exist at all.
But if the matter is true, but their evidence is insufficient to write it down, and they can only use the adjective "maybe, maybe, there are rumors from reliable people," then at the moment when the evidence is sufficient, in all the books written by them, the relevant
Every story will remove those adjectives and return to its true nature.
This was said directly by Ben's voters, and Ben did not come forward to deny it. If what he said was a lie, the pamphlet would no longer be nonsense.
