"What about dividing the water? Let the spellcasters unite and divide the water of the entire Bianhuang River to form a channel across the river bed."

"No, this method is more dangerous. By then, most of the water downstream will have flowed away, but the water upstream will accumulate more and more. Even if the magic used can resist it, how can you ensure that the enemy will not

Use counter magic? Once it is broken, the flood will immediately sweep away the troops crossing the river, not to mention that the river bed must be muddy and there is no way to pass quickly."

"Any magic effect that can be restrained or dispelled has safety risks, and they are not within our scope of consideration this time."

"Where can miracles come from without using magic?"

"Can you use the prayer technique to pray directly on this river for a real bridge across the river?"

"Even the prayer spell is not omnipotent. It will determine whether the spell is successful based on the size of the project. If the Bianhuang River is just a small ditch more than ten meters wide, then there is no problem. But as a

A bridge spanning a river of more than half a kilometer is probably far beyond the ability of the prayer technique. Even if it succeeds in the end, it may not be what we expected. A single-plank bridge can still be regarded as a bridge."

"Indeed, creation is always more difficult than destruction. A wish spell can easily destroy the fog barrier of a city, but there is no way to build a bridge across the river."

"Even if it is cast, it is not safe. This means that the enemy's wish spell can be countered. The fortress chairman Manmeng of the Dark Castle was already a quasi-legendary mage many years ago. Now he does not know how to possess it.

What kind of strength is it?"

"Going round and round, the problem is back to the original point. All methods that can be restrained by magic will not work. But the problem is, not only magic will not work, but ordinary methods will not work either. The opponent only needs to concentrate firepower and bombard them with magic.

It will destroy the bridges we have worked so hard to build."

The Slave of the Wind is another name for Sandakol, the god of travel and exploration. He is also known as the god of roads in Faerûn. Since Vol'jin, the god of year-round wealth, disappeared and no longer responded to the prayers of his believers, many goddesses of wealth have

Many believers and businessmen turned to the old man's name and prayed to him for protection and assistance on the road.

The words of the halfling priest were somewhat mysterious, and many people did not fully understand them.

Flynn, who has been watching here for half a year, is considered a local snake, and must have a lot of information. He didn't expect that the idle guy who was thrown out casually would end up on the conqueror's army.

After entering the goblin wilderness and having a conflict with the forces of the Far Sea Swamp, Gavin also thought about looking for him to see if he could get information about the Far Sea Swamp from him.

These laws have only one purpose, to prevent the gods from acting recklessly and pushing the entire material plane to destruction, leading to the collapse of the multiverse.

"This puts me at ease, but there is still nothing we can do about crossing the river."

"How about defeating them in advance? Lead them to this side of the river. As long as their main force is destroyed, we can cross the river calmly."

Helping Hand is another nickname for Shanda Keer, because his followers rarely stay in one place, but when traveling on the road, they will provide selfless help to business travelers on the business road, allowing them to go further.

, smoother, and over time, it will naturally earn him this reputation.

Catherine, the first choice of Ms. Strategy, was the first to react, and asked with gleaming eyes: "You mean, let our entire army of conquerors launch the prayers of His Highness the Slave Wind on the edge of the Bianhuang River.

Ritual, use our own contribution of the power of faith to shape a bridge across the river? Build a bridge of faith?"

The top brass of the entire conqueror's army became extremely excited. They had been worried about this matter before.

This Knights of the Shadow Sword is actually composed of halflings who are less than Gavin's waist. They are all dressed as adventurers, with most of their figures wrapped under dark cloaks.

The former is due to the conflict of clergy. The Wind Slave does not like to hide secrets and prefers to make them public. He will actively guide the public to explore those unknown secrets. This is his clerical responsibility.

"Kim, the leader of the Knights of the Shadow Sword, I have met the general, and according to the oracle of our god, we are here to lend a helping hand to the general to help you tide over the difficulties." Kim, the halfling priest who led the leader,

However, he was one of the rare people who was cheerful and directly reported the biggest purpose of his trip.

Compared with the information about the distant sea swamps, the information from the God of Travel and Exploration is more important, because 80% of it is related to the difficulties they face.

"I'm not being serious with you, I'm worried about whether the same situation exists between Thun Swamp and Distant Sea Swamp?"

"Flynn." Gavin revealed the other party's identity, his face showed genuine joy, and he said repeatedly, "He is indeed my friend, come in together, come in together."

The Conquerors' army's current information about the forces in the Far Sea Swamp is limited to the fact that a legendary gathering of hags controls the place. The rest is unknown, such as whether they will send troops, the composition of their troops, how many troops they have, etc.

This is not surprising. The entire race of halflings has varying degrees of wanderlust. Just like the Anbao Boat Village, their entire village uses boats as their home. The roads are not limited to land, waterways are also considered a kind. Many halflings are influenced by Shanda

Attracted by Cole's teachings, it was natural for him to become his pastor.

"If we do that, we will have a headache, but it is not just a deserted river, but the entire road section. The size of Thun Marsh is not static, but shrinks with the rain, and this area will also be affected.

The rainy season of Cormanso has affected it, and now it is the largest area. Many places have been submerged. These places look like a piece of grassland from a distance, but when you walk over, you will find that it is a quagmire. In addition, monsters frequently attack, and there are also

Before we are even halfway through, we will have to drastically reduce our numbers, instead of being like now without losing even one person."

It is impossible for Shar to hold this kind of relative priesthood in her hands at the same time, so instead of killing Shanda Keer and letting the exploration priesthood fall into the hands of a more powerful god, it is better to keep it with him. As long as she ensures that she is stronger than him,

As long as you can suppress him.

Flynn has found the Gnoll Monk several times throughout Faerûn, but he is probably the only one.

"It's really great. We didn't think of asking His Highness the Wind Slave for help before. It's really inappropriate."

The high-ranking officials of the Conqueror Army have great imaginations, such as building bridges over ice, dividing water to cross rivers, etc. It is not only the great power of countless people united together, but also the full use of magic.

"I know. I participated in the original military meeting. I just complained casually. You don't need to take it seriously."

After everyone sat down, Gavin couldn't wait to ask the believers of the God of Road: "I wonder what kind of assistance Lord Kim has brought us?"

The duty of the goddess of the night is to keep secrets, but Shar has no intention of slapping Sandakol to death, because whenever a secret is kept, there will inevitably be those who explore and expose it. This is inevitable. In the end, it depends on

Whose method is better?

Kim nodded kindly towards Catherine and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness also said that he is only responsible for responding. Whether this cross-river bridge can be raised and to what extent it can be raised depends on you."

"This is even more whimsical. Which of the forces we face this time has low IQ? Those followers of the God of Conspiracy? Or those legendary hags? The only one who is not famous for treachery is the Lizard Queen, even if she defeated one of them

One, and where are the other two?”

"Okay." Catherine responded cheerfully.

He once sent the Erd reconnaissance team to look for him and try to establish contact with him, but his method of hiding his traces was so clever that not only the enemy could not find him, but even the friendly forces could not find him.

"If I had known better, we wouldn't have crossed the Border River, gone straight north along the Sunset Mountains, and opened our own road to reach the high road. We wouldn't have had such a headache."

"It's said inside, it's said inside." Gavin naturally had to guard against the barriers, and what happened next was likely to involve their military secrets.

It was the unique Flynn Gnoll who took the initiative to cooperate with them in the Gnoll Chapter Black Death.

This kind of fog was created last year. Before that, there was not much difference between the Distant Sea Swamp and the Thun Swamp. This change is probably related to the descent of the gods.

"I am Gavin Nott, the commander-in-chief of this army. I welcome the followers of His Highness the Wind Slaver. Your arrival is our greatest honor." Gavin expressed respect to him upon meeting him.

A tall figure appeared out of nowhere, but this person was covered in long, spotted hair, with a stout and slightly stooped body, yellow eyes and a round nose, a protruding face, and a mouth full of sharp fangs. He was clearly a jackal.

.

If, like before, they are just fighting against the sky and the natural environment, no matter which method is used, it is feasible, it just costs a little more time and energy.

If this is the case, it makes perfect sense.

If Shanda Keer didn't pay attention to this, he would be derelict in his duty. He would have fallen long ago, and he would not always be able to sit firmly on the throne of this god.

The latter is because Ben Shaba once used the name of the God of the Road to stir up discord among various tribes in a desert area called the Wild Buffalo. To this day, the people there still curse him and call him the Wind Slave.

As "dangerous lurkers in the sand", the two sides started a fierce struggle. Although Shanda Keer tried his best to protect those business travelers from misfortune, Benshaba still often succeeded, causing those business travelers to fall into various misfortunes——

Natural disasters, man-made disasters, car accidents, monster attacks, etc. are all caused by the God of Doom.

The most unique thing is that the greed and ferocity of ordinary gnolls cannot be seen in the eyes of this jackal. Instead, there is only endless peace and tranquility, just like an enlightened monk.

Sandakol once possessed moderate divine power, but it declined after the fall of Myth Drannor, the city of song, and fell to weak divine power for a time. It was not until last year that the merchant god Wojin had a problem and a large number of believers turned to him.

Starting to develop again, he has been missing a key media point to once again show his divine power to the world and announce his return - humans act as gods, which is one of the core operating laws of the multiverse.

"There is no way. The Distant Sea Swamp and the Stormhorn Mountains are merged together. Some of the remaining veins even go deep into the swamp. Regardless of each other, we must either cross the swamp or open a mountain road in the Stormhorn Mountains. No matter where it is.

Each one is an impossible task."

As for the time of building the bridge, no one asked at all. Just kidding, this was done by a god himself. Even if he only has weak divine power left, he is still a true god, and the bridge must be completed instantly.

Just when everyone was at a loss what to do, a staff officer came in to deliver a message to break the deadlock, "Lord, there are dozens of knights outside asking for an audience. They call themselves the Knights of the Shadow Sword and are followers of the Wind Slave."

He is also an evergreen tree among the gods of Faerûn, one of the oldest gods. As the god of travel and exploration, he has never changed. This is related to his taciturn and lonely character. Not only does he have a good reputation among mortals,

, even many gods maintain good relations with him. After all, there are few conflicts of interest. Shar, the goddess of the night, and Benshaba, the goddess of misfortune, are the only two gods with whom he has an enmity.

"After getting through this, we will definitely build a huge temple for His Highness the Wind Slave to tell the world that he is helpful and worthy of people's trust."

This place is more completely isolated than the Thun Swamp. In addition to the swamp, it is also shrouded in hundreds of meters of fog all year round. If you go deep into it, you can't see anything ten meters away. It is also seriously misleading and is very misleading to outsiders.

It is easy to get lost in the fog, and coupled with the many dangers in the swamp, it is naturally more deadly here.

The last time he contacted him, he revealed that he was staring at the Yeenoghu fang in the distant sea swamp, saying that those jackals had resurrected in the distant sea swamp and asked for help from him.

Of course, the gods may or may not respond to this kind of call. Unless the benefits are huge, it is usually the latter.

"You are overthinking this. The reason why this area has not been submerged by the swamps and becomes part of them is because it belongs to the remnants of the Stormhorn Mountains that are hidden underground. The terrain is relatively high, and the other side is covered by the Gray Observer Mountains.

Supported by the remaining veins, the Bianhuang River is forcibly surrounded, so it is relatively fast and the terrain is low, making it difficult to cross."

"His Royal Highness the Wind Slave is willing to raise a bridge across the river for the General to help the entire army cross the river." Captain Kim replied straightforwardly.

But when surrounded by enemies, there was nothing you could do.

"What does Your Highness need us to do?" Catherine was one of the few people who did not show excitement. As the electorate of Ms. Stratagem, she knew more about God's slander.

Among the three major forces that the conqueror army faced, they had a basic idea of ​​the two major forces, the Lizard Queen's Court of Thun Swamp and the Dark Fortress, including the type and number of troops they had, and a general guess.

Even for a god, creating such a bridge across a river out of thin air, especially one that allows the entire army of conquerors to pass quickly, is really not a small project. It requires a huge amount of divine power, and even requires the use of divinity.
