Chapter 174: The Helpless Harpist

Ilminster and Helen still have to watch a new play in the afternoon, and it is noon when "Titanic" ends, and the crowd near the theater is dense and crowded, and it is not easy to squeeze back after going far.

So, they decided to have lunch at the "Titanic Movie Bar" on the first floor of the Amm Theater, the quality of the food and drinks in this movie bar is not to say, it can be called the first-class in Skartra City, but the price is also first-class, so high that people can't help but exclaim: "Boss, why don't you grab it?" ”

Even though the prices are high, there are still many wealthy people who crowd the movie bars at lunchtime, eating food and discussing theater.

The two God's Chosen People, who were not short of money, booked a table with the two harpist guides brought by Ilminster, ordered a large table of meals, and enjoyed their lunch break.

Ilminster quickly finished his meal, took out his notebook and magic quill of endless ink from his dimensional pouch, and wrote and drew on the paper.

Helen saw that he kept recording, leaned over to look at it, and couldn't help asking, "Old man, what are you writing?" Is it a review of "Titanic"? ”

The old sage smiled and shook his head: "I can write a review of the play, but not now, I am recording some of the unique ways of operating the Bredrow Theater Company, such as the use of shapeshifting actors, the use of illusion magic projection effects, and so on. ”

"What are you recording all this for?"

"You can wait until you return to Waterdeep to learn from the experience of the Bredero Theater Company and form the Waterdeep Theater Company."

The eyes of the elect of Eros lit up when they heard this, and she was also reminded that the believers of Shanny, the god of love and goodness, are very fond of art, and most of them are bards with acting talents, and if they can replicate the success of the Bredrow Theater Company, establish the Eros Theater Company, and perform "Titanic" at the Eros Celebration, it must be very helpful to spread the faith.

"Old man, you're as smart as you were two hundred years ago, it's a good idea, and when you're done writing, make a copy of it to me using the 'copying technique'."

Ilminster smiled and nodded, the Bredrow Troupe's innovative stage play is worth promoting, it will be a revolution in stage play, and the bards will be able to create more and better plays if they master this creative method.

"Wait!"

Melonia, who was accompanying her, heard important information from the old sage's words.

"My lord, you just said that the actors on stage are shapeshifters? Is the special effect on the stage illusion magic? ”

The harpist suddenly realized, no wonder she and Lucit were brutally framed by the Vernandon family before, it turned out that the family of three was not human at all, they were all monsters!

No wonder they were beaten so badly that they refused to accept the rescue of the Harpists' League!

Moreover, the so-called "Dwarf Technology Projector Version 2.0" turned out to be a fake, and the light and shadow effects on the stage were all magic performed by illusionists!

Bredrow reported the use of dangerous magic by the Marktown Theater Company when he took ownership of the theater, and it was the use of the Shapeshifters who harbored her and Lucit.

This self-proclaimed righteous guy went even further in breaking the law behind his back, but he deceived the city hall and made her and Lucitt carry the black pot.

"It's so damning!"

The harpist slapped the table, causing the dishes on the table to tremble.

"I'm going to the town hall to report Bredrow! Using illusion magic in public, and harboring dangerous shapeshifters, these two charges are enough to sentence him to twenty years in prison! ”

"You dare!"

Helen, the Chosen One, flicked her fingers and instantly and silently uttered a silent spell, and Melonia could no longer speak. Her angry shouting just now was not heard by the public due to the noisy voices in the movie bar.

"Am's national policy of banning demons is itself full of controversy, apart from Am's demon ban on the continent of Faerun, which country bans demons? Even if you think magic is dangerous, what's wrong with using illusion magic to give people the enjoyment of beauty? ”

Helen's face was cool, and she asked coldly: "What's wrong with the shapeshifter being an actor?" Those three factions of shapeshifters are order-neutral, not evil, and they work hard to entertain the public, but you want to report them and let them die at the stake and in the pool of acid? ”

She turned to Ilminster and said with a cold face: "Take care of the little girl you brought, don't force me to do it, when the time comes, even if you want to stop it, the scene will not be good." ”

The goddess of love and goodness, Shanny, is a god with powerful divine powers, and her voter Helen did not broadcast any heroic fame on the continent of Faeron, because the followers of Eros love peace and are unwilling to intervene in disputes, which does not mean that this female elector is weak in combat.

Even Ilminster, the archmage who had experienced countless adventures, went to war with the angry Goddess Elect, and the odds were really only two.

And even if the old mage can win, Helen will give him a "Eros curse", and his sexual happiness for the rest of his life will basically be cut off, and he will never want to climb into the bed of a certain goddess again, he will become a female public enemy, which is definitely more than worth the loss.

What's more, the old mage did not agree with Melonia's words, he glared at Melonia with displeasure on his face, turned to Helen and said, "Children are not sensible, Lady Helen, please don't be angry. ”

"As a bard, you want to destroy a troupe that has brought about an innovative revolution in the stage play because of a little bit of a holiday? Want to frame a talented playwright and performer? ”

The old mage was so angry that the demon lord would tremble, and Melonia couldn't help but tremble when she was in the heat of his anger.

"Forget about it at once, or you're not worthy of being a harpist!"

Under the angry gaze of the two God's chosen people, the little harpist could only relent, nodding her head aggrievedly, and did not dare to mention the report again.

She was very depressed, it was clear that it was Bradero who did evil, but she was the one who was punished every time, even Helen, the Lady Elect who claimed to be the kindest in the world, and Ilminster, the most just and wise Goddess of Magic Elector in the world, spoke for the villain and concealed his sins for him.

What's wrong with the world? Black and white upside down, right?

The harpist promised never to mention such a "rebellious" "evil word" again, and the two voters looked away from their dissatisfaction, which made Melonia greatly relieved, and was stared at by the two demigods of the legendary realm, and the pressure was really not ordinary.

"Sister, I don't agree with the idea that you have to report it, if the actors and directors of the Braidro Troupe are arrested, they will never see a good drama like "Titanic" in the future, how disappointed the audience will be."

Unexpectedly, Lucit, the closest sister next to her, who was also badly harmed by Bredero's pit, did not support her: "Moreover, you can't report it if you want to, you will be arrested before you can speak at the city hall, because we are still wanted by Am's back." What you say will be treated as slander, and no one will believe it. ”

The female assassin's words reminded Melonia, and she thought that it was true, that she was the number one suspect in the bombing, that there were portraits of her all over Am, and that if it weren't for the magic of Ilminster, who had blessed her with the "Veil of Wonder", she would have been arrested on the spot as soon as she got off the ship.

Lusit continued, "Even if they know what you're saying is true, they won't admit it. The destruction of the Braidro Troupe did no good to the commoners and nobles of Am, even if the Bredero Troupe was breaking the law, and the matter had developed to the point where the Ambro officials would pretend not to know even if they knew it, just like people knew that drinking alcohol was not good for their health, but they couldn't help but drink heavily. ”

Melonia sighed deeply, and she had to admit that LucitΓ© was right, that Bredrow was becoming a trend, and that she was not a little harpist who could shake it.
