After leaving the room, the three of them began to discuss in low voices.
Of course, it was mainly the two Rockbreaker brothers who said it, and Ren was only responsible for listening.
"Of course, kill the alien creature that the spirit-binder mentioned, and then go to him to exchange for some treasures and gems! Otherwise, we will suffer a big loss!" Thorin, the Rock Breaker, said fiercely.
The gray dwarf warrior felt his teeth itching in panic at the thought of being forced to pay for his life to the wraith.
The fourth time, this is the fourth time!
Since coming to this Phandalin Mine, he has been ripped off four times by others, either actively or passively!
For a dwarf who is greedy for money, this is simply more painful than killing him.
Thinking of this, the gray dwarf warrior glanced at the human boy named "Sri Zhan" beside him intentionally or unintentionally.
Pretending not to see the malice in Thorin the Rockbreaker's eyes, Wren continued to act like a harmless human boy.
The next moment, a ray of light suddenly burst out in the darkness.
In the end, it was Rockbreaker Thorin who came forward and used his powerful strength to force the chain away.
"Follow me."
"No," Rockbreaker Thorin shook his head, his tone a little angry, "In this case, wouldn't that magic scroll be given to the spirit in vain? This is absolutely not possible! At least, I want it too
Reduce the loss a little! What, Mr. Sri is not willing to join our brothers?"
He said with some "worry":
Telepathy!
Renn also frowned slightly and looked at the creature that appeared from behind the brazier.
As members of the underdark, they are naturally photophobic and extremely sensitive to light.
The wanderer retreating into the shadows whispered.
Led by the rogue, the group walked through the dark and winding mine tunnels, and finally arrived at the gate of the spell factory that the spirit binder mentioned.
In the darkness where the flames could not shine, a pair of eyes opened one after another, and then, a rich but vague voice sounded in the minds of the three Rennes.
It was a round meat ball floating in the air. Below the meat ball was a huge mouth covered with dagger-like teeth. Above the big mouth was a huge one-eye.
Gently pushing open the stone door, the first thing the three of them saw was a production workshop the size of a basketball court.
The gray dwarf brother said with a strange expression.
Rockbreaker Witte grunted, making a ripple with the dagger in his hand, and inserted it into the scabbard tied to his thigh.
Faced with the hinges that were melted together, the rogue's lockpicking tools were completely useless.
The power of the mind is often called "psionic power" in the mouth of spell casters.
"But Brother Thorin, that spirit-binder didn't dare to do it himself, but handed the task over to us. Is it because the alien creatures he said were too powerful? In my opinion, he might want to use us as a test.
The other party’s strength may be cannon fodder.”
Beholders are not unfamiliar to gray dwarves, after all, both are races that live together in the Underdark.
"Beholder!"
No, it’s the Observer Beholder!
Ren looked at the beholder floating in the air and said silently in his heart.
He swore that when everything was over, he would turn this boy into a slave and sell him to the Dark Territory to make up for his losses during this trip!
Around the sphere, there are tentacles that are constantly dancing, and the ends of the tentacles are connected to eyes.
"Oh, look, here comes another group of adventurers!"
What attracted the attention of the three Rennes the most was a small brazier placed on a stone base in the center of the room, with a mysterious green flame inside that was constantly surging and jumping.
A summoned beholder will serve its summoner, usually guarding the location or treasure designated by the summoner for 101 years.
The two of them really didn't expect that the alien creature that the binding spirit mentioned was actually a beholder!
The Observer Beholder is a low-level beholder summoned from other planes of existence by the caster using rituals. Since the spell component of the summoning ritual requires four beholder eye stalks as consumables, the number of eyes possessed by the Observer Beholder is usually
It's a multiple of four - four coins or eight coins.
Tsk, even if you don’t tell me, grandpa also knows. As a paladin, fighting against undead creatures and alien creatures is a common occurrence. How could you not know their details?
With a sneer in his heart, Renn's eyes showed a hint of timidity at the right time, and he said quietly: "Then can't we just ignore this matter?"
But it is a pity that the battle that year has severely damaged this place. The four workbenches in the corners of the room have been scorched, and the plaster on the stone walls has been smoked black.
The one eye between these eyes and the flesh ball is staring at the three Rennes with interest.
The gray dwarf brothers quickly closed their eyes and turned away.
The gray dwarf wanderer on the side stood up silently and kept wiping the dagger in his hand. His eyes kept scanning his throat, and the threatening meaning was immediately revealed.
Rock Breaker Thorin showed a slightly ferocious smile and said lightly:
"Mr. Sri, you don't understand. Creatures like the spirit binding are bound, and they cannot stay away from the place where they were born. Because of this, he left this matter to us."
Obviously, these eyes were the ones that the three of them saw suddenly appeared.
The expressions of the gray dwarf brothers changed, and they all put their hands on their weapons.
The gray dwarves deeply hate creatures with telepathy. This is because they overthrew the rule of the illithids who were good at using psychic power and gained freedom.
"How far can I go in this mine alone?" Ren rubbed his hands and said with a dry smile, "Since Brother Thorin intends to eradicate that alien creature, how can I, Sri Zhan,
Disregarding the safety of your friends? Count me in!"
"You know what I mean."
As his words fell, Renn noticed that the atmosphere solidified in an instant.
Those observer beholders with 12 or 16 beholders, who are either quasi-legendary beholder elders or legendary beholder tyrants, rarely respond to the call and come to the main material plane.
These are enough to illustrate the intensity of the fighting here.
"Oh, let me see, one human and two gray dwarves, what an interesting combination!"
The thick double stone door is full of pits left by the spell bombing, and the iron hinge in the middle is still partially melted.
As the green flames swayed, both the gray dwarf brothers and Renn could clearly feel that the concentration of magic particles in the workshop was much higher than in other places.
During this time, they prevent any creature other than the summoner from entering the location or using the item.
Unless otherwise instructed by the summoner, a watcher beholder will never deviate from its duties.
If the item being guarded is stolen or damaged before its expiration date, the observer beholder will disappear and return to its original plane.
While guarding the treasure, the Observer Beholder cannot do anything and can only fulfill its duty of guarding the treasure honestly until it completes its mission.
