A newborn skull harbor, without the crazy old mage as an umbrella, ushered in a new protector. For the Black Stick Tower, careful observation and repeated research and judgment are not excessive, but for the agents of many gods, it is also necessary to contact in many aspects.

For example, the Temple of Tyr, the paladins who worked as judges and lawyers had long been dissatisfied with the crime-ridden state of Skull Harbor. It's just that because of the "shelter principle" of the old madman in the black robe, no one wants to provoke an old monster who has survived from the days of the ancient magic empire.

Another example is the Temple of Ilmat, a staunch abolitionist who sniped at the slave traders of Skull Harbor more than once, but each time the action was not satisfactory. The dead heads of the Skull Choir will always float out at the most critical moment, and make a mess of everything with gags.

There is also the Temple of Waukin, where followers of the goddess of wealth have always taken the port trade of Skull Harbor very seriously, not to mention the chambers of commerce that have colluded with pirates and slave traders. If possible, these profit-seekers would be eager to smash an entire shipload of gold into the nascent Coral Cup Mesas, as long as they could obtain a commercial port that was completely in the hands of the Wordgold Temple. Even if you can't eat the entire port area in one bite, it can make the Waujin Temple take more benefits, after all, the Queen's Church has always been divided into two parts, light and dark, in addition to the regular Chamber of Commerce, there are also some thieves' guilds who are believers in the Queen of Wealth.

As for which temples in Deep Water City will come to burn their own "head incense", Xia Yuan Taiyijun has not made an estimate-

If it is the priest of the Tyre file, then talk about the legal construction of the port of skulls, if it is the pious sufferers of the temple of Ilmat, then talk about how to sweep away the slave traders, and if it is the money strings of the temple of Workin, on the premise of making a fortune legally and making money in a disciplined manner, everyone is not without a quarrel.

Even those tin heads in the Temple of Heim, you can still talk about maintaining order!

......

.........

But there were no dossier priests, no money strings, no iron heads, not even genuine pious sufferers.

Dressed in the coarse woollen garments worn by ascetics, the visitor at the head of the group took a look at the guards of the Wooden Shoe Brothers' Cooperative with great interest.

The handsome drow elf ignored the other's gaze as much as possible, silently resting his palm on the hilt of the silver dragon-shaped sword.

Behind Gedel, Mr. Idir, the "Psionic Master", was slowly concocting a pot of flower and fruit tea, his eyes sweeping over the silver hair that the visitor had casually hung on his forehead.

The long silver hair woven as if the cold moonlight and the delicate skin like black jade directly reveal the identity of the other party.

"I thought the priests of Tyre would be a little more proactive, but instead they were greeted by an unexpectedly beautiful lady. ”

"The Moonlit Wandering Court may be set up in a cavern far from Waterdeep, but we are still members of the Templar Court, Your Excellency Idir. ”

In a melodious female voice, the tall Drow woman untied her coarse wool gown, revealing her softly curved body. Dressed in a sleeveless white gauze dress, the priestess was more like a dancer ready to start her daily practice than a priest.

Looking at the other party's pair of ruby-like pupils, Xia Yuan Taiyijun nodded slightly: "The singing in the moonlight is the road marker, the sword-wielding daughter who dances for the dark girl, welcome to the Coral Cup Terrace." ”

The beautiful Drow priestess was slightly surprised by this opening statement, her well-shaped eyebrows slightly raised, and a slight smile on her lips.

The word "Dark Girl" also made Gedel instinctively clench his sword, and this subtle movement was forcibly suppressed by him, but his arm trembled slightly uncontrollably.

It was only natural that every drow elf who inhabited the Dark Lands was rigorously "educated" by the Spider Queen's priests on how to hate their distant relatives on the surface, and how to torture and kill the "apostate who had betrayed the Queen", the followers of Elisetsu, the daughter of the Spider Queen and the Dark Maiden. For this beautiful goddess has been committed to opposing her mother, trying to free the drow elves from the twisted hatred and chaotic malice of the spider god.

This little gesture of Gedel, whether it is "Idrir" or the visiting priestess Elisetri, is as if it is not seen.

Motioning to Ainan Tuoshan to pour a cup of flower and fruit tea for the beautiful Priestess of Drow, Xia Yuan Taiyijun nodded to the other party: "For the sake of the future of this new city, let's make a long story short." What do you want from me, Erisestere's sword-wielding daughter, and what can I get from Erisestere's Wandering Court?"

This line is not circuitous, like the Amm merchant offering a price for the goods, but it is clearly very much to the drow priestess, she raised her eyebrows, and tucked a strand of long silver hair behind her ear: "It's also nice to be able to skip a lot of clichés, and to be able to compliment each other in a different way." ”

Her red eyes stared at the "Psionic Master" in front of her, and she said sincerely, "The Wandering Court is part of our Lord Elisetsu's great plan, but a temple alone can't do much more. ”

The so-called "Great Plan of Eliestriad" is the beautiful goddess's goal of trying to get all the drow elves to abandon the spider god and return to the surface world to regain their faith in goodness.

"With all due respect, Goddess Elisestere's grand goal is an almost impossible task. Xia Yuan Taiyijun shook his head, "The Drow city-states of the Dark Regions have become accustomed to that kind of cruel society, and they are bound by their own society, cutting off all possibilities for change. If you want to free this race from the spider's hand, the only way is—"

The priestess shook her head, not letting the "Psionics Master" continue, the "only way" had been told by Kelburn Blackrod and many others.

Attack every city-state of the Drow Elves and kill every priest after the Spider God, only in this way can the Spider God's evil claws be completely cut off.

But that was not the way the eternally mourning goddess could accept it.

The priestess just shook her head firmly, continuing the conversation as she had been, "The Wandering Court has been working hard to contain its fellow citizens who have escaped the clutches of the Spider Queen, but as a temple, it will never be a true city. Skullhaven is one of the few cities that can tolerate drow elves, but it's only slightly better than the Dark Regions, where the inhabitants are terrified of the color of our skins, and the Thieves' Guild, the Exiled Mage, or anything else has always considered the Wandering Court a treasure trove worth challenging. ”

"So," the priestess looked up at the "Psionics Master" in front of her, "Eliestria's sword-wielding daughter, Aoi Lou Villadoron, has asked you to allow some of the Dark Maiden's people to become the first legal inhabitants of your new city. In return, the Court of Wandering will donate most of the wealth it has collected since its founding to help you build your new city. ”

Shimoto Taiyijun glanced at Elisemer's sword-wielding daughter and said slowly, "If it's just a treasure, the Belen lich and ghost mages who have surrendered to me will take out enough of it from the leyline maze. So Idrir Raymond Gaton asked for more than just gold and gems - Eliestriad's warriors could gain legal citizenship in the Coral Cup Mesaga, but at the same time, they should serve as City Guards, Customs Investigators, and any other profession that required their contributions. ”

This time, even Gedel turned his head in surprise - did he understand what this arrogant but powerful psionic was talking about?

A dark elven city on the surface of the earth?

Fearful of the notoriety of the Dark Elves, all surface species will abandon the most famous harbor in the Northlands, and the humans, dwarves and elves who are hostile to the Dark Elves will sooner or later turn the place into a graveyard full of corpses. And all the underground city-states, all the masters of the ruling families, will respond to the call of the spider queen and continue to pour out of the ground, turning this place into a battlefield for the gods to hunt.

Only the voice of the "Psionic Master" sounded unhurriedly: "When Hyrust Black-robed ruled the Leyline Labyrinth, using Skull Harbor as his villainous backyard, no Drow Mistress had dared to cross the Leyline Labyrinth to attack Waterdeep. Similarly, if a drow city wants to self-destruct, I don't mind fulfilling the self-destructive tendencies of those female spiders. ”

...... Well, in front of a dragon slayer and conqueror of the Leylines Maze, this is just a declarative sentence with no element of boasting.

Gedel suddenly found that all his common sense, both underground and surface, had become extremely fragile in front of this half-blood psionic master, like a dried mushroom that exploded into a light gray spore mist at the touch of it.

Eventually, the last son of the Drow family decided to give up thinking and empty his head so that he could not hear the torturous and dangerous words of the psionic masters.

Rather than Gedel, Aoi Lou Villadoron, the presiding priest of the Dark Maiden's Wandering Court, warned the protector of Newport City: "Your forbearance pleases all my companions, but I still want to make it clear to you that our enemies are not only from the fallen underground cities, but also from other places, and the followers of the masked king Veron, the lord of ooze monsters, and the followers of Kannad, lord of ooze monsters, have always been a lingering shadow. ”

"There is nothing to be afraid of a god without courage or a god without a brain, and in comparison, I hope the followers of Elistrad can understand what order a city should be. Shimoto Taiich-kun replied earnestly, "I believe that Lady Aoiru, who is favored by both the dark maiden Elistry and Mystra, the mother of mysteries, will be able to teach those dark-skinned girls to obey my requests. ”

"As you wish, Your Excellency. ”

And so the matter was settled.

As the chosen people of the gods favored by the two goddesses at the same time, when Aoi Lu picked up the teacup, she still glanced thoughtfully at the half-elf in front of her.

A powerful spellcaster, no matter what magic system he masters, cannot appear in the world out of thin air. The word "powerful" means "rare talent", "favor of fate", "favor of the gods".

Young people with rare talents, there are many in every era, but only a very few lucky ones live to the day when they become the protagonists of the saga.

There are powerful psionics in this world, and there are young and gifted psionics, but there are no young and powerful psionics. And this world is so generous that it has opened its way to countless dimensional travelers. For example, the old sage Ilminster in the Valley of Shadows has a habit of inviting many great magicians from different planes to his home for dinners on a regular basis.

There is no doubt that the man who changed Skull Harbor belongs to such a traveler, just like the people who have visited this continent from other planes. This continent welcomed the elves and accepted the orcs, and the benthic demon fish and the heart snatcher who escaped from the future destruction ended lurking underground, and the gods who traveled through time and space in order to save their believers established the **** earthly kingdom on the continent.

Therefore, Aoi Lu is looking forward to more surprises that this newly arrived psionic master will bring to this land.

While the priestess with the white porcelain teacup was pondering, some of the monks who followed Aoiru's visit finally couldn't bear the loneliness and jumped in front of the "psionic master".

"Lady Aoiru, your ambitious goal has taken another big step forward. But the most important piece of the puzzle is missing from the despicable new book, for the sake of the old black rod and the pipe of Ilminster, which you promised me before!"

The man with a beer belly took off the small round hat decorated with artificial apples on his head, and his carefully combed beard jumped on his lips: "Hail to you!

"And the most unreliable magician I've ever seen in my life. Aoi Lu added.

But that doesn't stop the self-proclaimed traveler's nimble fat man from gushing about himself: "I believe that the great things you have created require my service." After all, the Leyline Maze was once regarded as a forbidden area by all great mages that could not be easily offended, and it was also a 'hero's tomb' certified by the old black rod and old pipe. I'm very curious about your battle process, and in fact, I think this exclusive interview will allow me to write "The Great Traveler Varotamp: Telling the Rise and Fall of the Leyline Maze", which will be the best book in the Great Traveler Varotemple series, and it will fully deserve all the awards in the mainland publishing industry!"

"I'm not surprised at all. Shimoto Taiyijun replied gently, but his eyes were fixed on the chattering nimble fat man in front of him—

In the back of Varro's head, there is a thread of spirit that most people cannot see, and all the thoughts of the best-selling author are being conveyed to another person simultaneously.
