Chapter 194 Gnoll Fortress

Apodel watched Drizzt disappear completely before sighing: "He is really powerful! He can fight so many gnolls by himself, he really deserves to be a legendary hero. I really hope that one day I can be like him, even if surrounded by hordes of monsters, I can fight my way out."

Imoon patted him on the shoulder with a smile. "Don't dream! You will never be able to compare with Drizzt in your life. Look at the way he swung the two knives just now, it's almost like dancing."

Henry shook his head with a smile when he heard the girl's words. "My opinion is exactly the opposite of yours. Aberdell will definitely surpass Drizzt in the future and become a household name. You'd better ask for a few things he used now, and you will definitely make a fortune by then."

"Perhaps what you said makes sense. When I return to Candlekeep when I have time, I will definitely steal the sheets that Aberdell urinated in when he was a child. Even if others don't buy them, he will definitely pay a lot of money to buy them back." After speaking, Imoon burst out laughing.

There was a slight smile on Jasila's serious face, but soon she put on a straight face and urged everyone to continue on their way. When it was dark, the group finally crossed the Yunwufeng Waterfall and arrived at the outer edge of the Wolf Man Fortress. Here they captured a prisoner, and learned from this guy that Dai Heina was only locked up, and there was no danger for the time being.

Standing in front of the suspension bridge leading to the top of the mountain, Minsk shouted excitedly: "Yes!! This is the old lair where Dynahei was imprisoned! Go forward, friends, go forward!"

"Wait, Minsk. Let's first... first study the... terrain, so as not to be surrounded by a large number of... enemies." Khalid reminded him in a low voice, grabbing his arm.

Minsk scratched his head, obviously not understanding the meaning of this sentence. Just as he was about to ask Boo the hamster for advice, Jasila came over and gave her husband a glare. "Shut up! There are at least five hundred gnolls in the fortress above, do you want to be discovered by them?"

Seeing his wife get angry, Khalid apologized and tried to explain his motives. "So...sorry, honey. I...I just want Minsk to... calm down."

"And you, ranger! How many times have I told you, don't talk to that rodent again, it has no way of understanding what you mean." After Jasila taught Khaled a lesson, he changed his target to Minsk.

"Squeak." The hamster came out and called twice.

"Look! Boo Boo understands what you're saying about it. Oh! What a smart partner! Let the great Minsk lead you to charge up, kill all these gnolls, and rescue dear Dynahei."

Jasila put her hand on her forehead and sighed, then she turned around and asked Henry, "Are the spells you have prepared enough? With this guy's personality, sneaking in secretly is definitely impossible. Once there is a confrontation, it will all depend on your magic."

"As long as there are no spellcasters among the enemies, the rest of the spells are more than enough to kill them all. Personally, I suggest that it is best to split up into two teams. One team attacks from the front to attract attention, and the other team sneaks up from the side to save people." After observing the terrain, Henry put forward his own opinion. God knows if these gnolls will kill the hostages if they are cornered, it is better to add insurance.

Jaheira's eyes lit up, and he immediately agreed to the battle plan. She divided the six people into two teams. Aimon, Khalid and herself were in a team, and they were responsible for going around to save people from the side. And Minsk, Apodell, and Henry form another team, and they are responsible for attracting all the enemies from the front.

After deciding on the division of labor, Henry led the two soldiers across the suspension bridge first. Near the end, an ogre warrior stepped out and shouted, "Stop! You can't go anywhere! This is our bridge, you have to pay to get across!"

Another ogre also echoed: "Yes! You have to pay... two hundred gold coins or hand over the head!"

"You two scoundrels, go away! Bubu and I have to rush to rescue Danahei." Minsk drew out his weapon and shouted, and the hamster in his pocket also crawled out and gave two cheers.

Apodel didn't want the monster in front of him to talk nonsense at all, he swung his two-handed sword and rushed over. Henry sighed when he saw the performance of the two fighters. He originally planned to use some tricks to make the battle easier, but he obviously overestimated Minsk's IQ and Apodel's patience.

Seeing that the fighting had started ahead, Henry began to chant spells. A few seconds later, a ** divine spell "Summoning Thunder" was released. A large black cloud quickly formed overhead, followed by a bolt of lightning that struck one of the ogres. The guy started to smoke all over his body instantly and twitched, but the strong vitality didn't make him die immediately.

With a loud shout, Apodel jumped up and chopped off the ogre's head with a single strike. Immediately after killing his enemy, he ran to help the impending Minsk. The other ogre's movements were obviously terribly fast, and its movements were almost as agile as a thief. The second bolt of lightning in the dark cloud quickly fell. The powerful electric current instantly paralyzed this agile monster. Minsk slashed open the ogre's stomach, and Aberdel pierced its heart.

After killing the two guys who forcibly collected tolls, Henry waved at the people behind. Jasila and his party quickly ran over from behind and began to climb up the mountain road to the east. Apodel spat fiercely on the ground and cursed: "Bah! Why is this ogre so agile? Could it be that he is really a thief?"

Henry squatted down and turned over the corpse, and found that the gloves this guy was wearing seemed a little unusual. He cast a "discernment technique" on the glove, and soon got specific information.

Gloves of Agility: "Hands of Fighting"

This pair of gloves should have been developed in Karatu, the purpose is to help those kung fu masters fight. Rumor has it that a kung fu master from the Far East came here with such an item, but details are unknown.

Equipment capacity:

Agility will automatically increase to human limits

Henry threw the gloves of agility directly to Apodel. "It's the power of these magic gloves. You put them on quickly, the gnolls above will come down later."

"Aha! This is really a treasure. Those jackals will not be afraid of it." Apodel happily put on the magic gloves. He tried to swing the weapon a few times, and found that his movements were indeed several times more flexible than before.

Since the "Thunder Summoning Technique" just now alarmed the monsters in the mountaintop fortress, a group of jackals soon began to walk down. Because of their night vision, they are generally active at night. Henry led two teammates quickly to the narrowest part of the mountain road. Before the enemy arrived, he placed six or seven flame traps and the same number of skeleton traps here and there.

After everything was arranged properly, the three of them retreated tens of meters, quietly waiting for the arrival of the wolf man. Henry has prepared range control spells and large area destruction spells, and he is going to kill all these guys without letting them go.

The wolf man moved very fast, and he walked a large section of the mountain road in just ten minutes. These monsters with hyena heads and red eyes had already appeared opposite the three of them. The leader sniffed with his nose, and then yelled at Henry and the others with their big mouth full of yellow teeth.

"It's the behavior of a beast. I really don't understand how these guys were selected when the intelligent race was divided." Henry made an insulting gesture to the enemy, and chatted with Apodel next to him with a smile on his face.

Gnolls obviously don't have very high IQs. They were quickly enraged, and then rushed forward in a swarm. In the blink of an eye, a large number of traps were detonated, and a large amount of fire, air waves, and magic damage killed dozens of unlucky eggs. The other guys in his hands were not much better, some rolled off the cliff directly, and the other became disabled directly.

"Oh! Dude. You're an out-and-out villain." Aberdell looked gloating. "Look at these poor guys, they've been played around."

Henry pointed to the long list of enemies behind him. "Hurry up and prepare for the battle. With the number of enemies, the traps on this road will be cleared soon. Remember not to charge too far ahead, otherwise I will not be responsible for accidental injuries from spells."

"Come on! Come on! The blood on Minsk's body has started to burn! Let's cut off their heads together!" The ranger began to shout excitedly. If it wasn't for Apodel's pull, he might have rushed over first.

As Henry expected, the leading gnoll brought in a bunch of goblins from behind. These sad little green monsters were driven to the front and set off all the traps within minutes. Seeing that the road ahead was clear, the jackals let out a howl and began to rush forward quickly.

It took only a second for Henry to cast the "greasy technique", and a large area of ​​magic grease covered the mountain road. This turned the originally difficult road into a passage of death in an instant. The gnolls running in front slipped in one fell swoop, and the guys behind followed rushed up, pushing many unlucky people off the cliff in one fell swoop.

Seeing that the monsters were getting denser, Henry fired a fireball at the place with the most people without hesitation. In the blink of an eye, the explosion and flames ignited the grease on the ground, and all the hundreds of gnolls gathered around jumped down the mountain with flames all over their bodies. The severe high temperature caused them unbearable pain, and they all chose to kill themselves.

The raging fire temporarily separated the two warring parties. Henry didn't choose to continue casting spells, because after counting the time, Jaheira's infiltration team should already be inside. If they kill too hard here, it will be troublesome to make these guys turn around and run back. (To be continued.)
