Surviving the Fourth Calamity

Chapter 826

Hill looked over curiously. In the dwarven power organization, the priest of the goddess of family is actually the real backbone... Even if most dwarves are rebellious, they will be tamed under the "gentle" eyes of the old mother .

So he didn't think it was any surprise that the one who was sent to observe Luskan's side was a low-ranking priestess...they were the hostesses by the hearth, the guardians of the dwarf family...better at Use a mace to stop thieves, and increase the defense BUFFF of the soldiers... Although they can also treat and detoxify, they are actually more capable of treating burns. Of course, their strongest ability is actually the kindergarten aunt.

It is their duty to maintain traditional dwarven culture, weave families together, educate and raise young dwarves, and maintain the orderly management of dwarven society... Most of the short-tempered and impulsive dwarves are born in the Wenzhou of the priests of Berroni. They grew up in whispers, so although these priests do not seem to have any formal leadership positions, they have an extraordinary position in every dwarf clan.

And only she can choose when to bow to other races for help... If it weren't for the plague of spells, Berroni herself would be the last hope of these small tribes.

The dwarven 'Honorable Mother' often sends avatars to defend threatened dwarven clans, especially smaller clans threatened by events beyond their control.

Hill turned his head and thought for a while. If William really thought that this matter was all planned by that great Lich in Searle, then he could understand why these necromancers would poison the dwarves of Mirabar. up.

Normally, most forces would not take action against these small non-human races. The mines of Mirabar are not rich mines, and they are located in a relatively remote corner of the Spine of the World, so the Mirabar dwarves with the Crystal Dragon behind them can survive. so comfortable.

But Searle is different. People in this country have a lot of prejudice against non-human races, especially dwarves and gnomes. They are often given racist nicknames and violent provocations. Stronger than the bones of human children, the corpses of these two races are most often used as materials for making coolie undead.

In other words... the bones of dwarves can be sold for money in Cyre.

On the contrary, elves, although they are also despised, are generally avoided and tabooed... Usually, conflicts arise only when there are enough temptations of interests.

The main reason is that the power of the elves is relatively strong after all, and no matter what kind of elves, even those of the evil camp, they will choose to fight endlessly for the pollution of the corpses of their compatriots, so the Cyrils actually shy away from the power of the elves. middle activity.

Just like when dealing with Luskan, they will pay attention to hiding their existence and use those Zhentarim's bereaved dogs as shields.

Orcs and half-orcs are well accepted in Cyre, as they often serve as enforcers and soldiers in Cyran legions.

Centaurs are often even used as guards on Cyre slave plantations.

After all, this is a guy who can be fed with slave corpses... slave bones can also be used to make skeletons.

However, this kind of Searle didn't even reach the most intolerable moment... When the Necromancer faction officially came to the fore and Bane became the belief of the whole country, the status of living people would be inferior to that of dogs.

So Hill very much agrees with William's idea of ​​considering Searle as the next target of the undead... He didn't think so far, and never thought about letting the undead cross the continent of Faerun to fight in the south.

Of course, it may also be because he has been subconsciously avoiding important plots in the world of Toril... Sarzastan, the Grand Lich of Szastan, loves to plan multiple conspiracies at the same time, and has been trying to complete a strange seal. God Festival: Capture nine demigods or chosen people from different camps to absorb power and ascend to the gods.

Logically speaking...the gods of Toril shouldn't be so embarrassing, just look at Lyra to see how strong the voters are... Hill often observes this Mystra's voters when he is bored, and Laila is not even a One of the two strongest, but not so easy to kill...Of course, it is quite easy for Hill to defeat her, but the strong vitality in Leila's body makes it really difficult for her to be completely defeated. Get rid of.

However, as long as Hill thinks of AO and the Tablet of Destiny, he feels that Sazarstan's great dream may not be unfulfilled.

He paced slowly on the terrace, but history actually changed the moment the magic net was broken.

Hill didn't know that William hadn't thought of this difference... that Azuth, the mage god, wasn't dead yet.

If the gods fall, even if the connection between Toril and the star world is completely severed, it cannot be covered up... This time, there is no unlucky ghost who fell with Mystra.

According to the original timeline, this unlucky white-bearded old man was ejected from Toril the moment the magic net shattered, and collapsed into Bator Hell...and was killed by Asmodeus, the Lord of Hell. died.

But this early murder saved him from this tragic fate... Of course, this may also be because the accumulated resentment with Mystra was not so high, so that the goddess didn't think of cursing him before she died ?

It was also because of this ending that Hill knew in his heart: AO was indeed just doing it casually, and he didn’t really want to update the gods of Toril. What he did was for the better future of Toril...Of course this is good It's kind of incomprehensible.

But AO has indeed been observing other worlds, trying to learn the advantages of others in Toril, and then the acclimatization caused a mutation... But as many people feel, he is instead interested in people like Cyric and Bane. Shi Pai appreciates it... After all, he is given another chance to change the world.

Hill doesn't care what Toril will do to this guy who is suspected of being the God of Chaos, he is just happy with the result: these things that happened will not lead to the same result at different times... To be honest, this This is the reason why Hill has been so relaxed during this period. At least AO just likes to make troubles, not the kind of control freak who wants to control everything in his claws.

Hill exhaled lightly, so since the world was reorganized, he didn't strictly ask himself to keep his hands off his own business, and he dared to intervene slightly in some things.

Otherwise, as soon as Hill found Edna, he would go crazy and try to send her away.

But now he just quietly watched the undead who rushed out from the various defense huts, summoned their mounts and ran directly to the east of the ice city, and laughed from the bottom of his heart: It seems that William has already negotiated with the Mirabar dwarves Covenant of cooperation.

Dwarves are a very stubborn race with weird thinking...Even if William wants to cooperate with them, he must not bring it up by himself...In that case, even if you save their lives, the dwarves will not be grateful to you, they will only feel You have no plans.

So it is clear that the relationship between the elves and dwarf gods is still friendly, but their believers are not so harmonious.

How can a proud elf stand that kind of humiliation.

Of course, this has led to the current situation. Although the dwarves' crisis is so obvious, even the nearby neighbors will not take the initiative to help before they ask for help.

Don't look at the fact that so many undead have gone ahead, but in fact they will just stay aside and watch. Without William's order, they will not take action at all. At most, they will kill those half-orcs running in the direction of Luskan.

The night slowly rose again, and the brilliance of Su Lun accompanied the fireworks of various colors rising above Luskan, creating a different kind of scenery.

Hill slowly admired the beautiful night, although the splendid fireworks actually meant that the war on the other side had officially started.

Mirabar's little things are not worth the effort of the undead... The undead who can use spells don't care about those messy underground passages.

They have enough earth mages to open these passages directly.

So at the moment when the dawn appeared, the undead followed the morning light and embarked on the road back to Luskan, which was actually the frozen Miral River.

Hill turned his head to look at the Spine of the World, and the orcs had already begun to evacuate.

The undead who stayed behind in Luskan began to burn the sky full of fires to burn the corpses... The half-orcs who survived already knew the habits of the undead, and secretly cut up a lot of meat before leaving.

This time, they lost millions of lives in Luskan. The old, the weak, the sick and the disabled have been exhausted. Although they didn't get better food, every half-orc has enough money in their hands. For the living meat, it is more likely that some guys have enough food to feed a female and let her give birth to several cubs for herself.

Although such a life disgusts both humans and elves, it has been their way of life for thousands of years.

If it wasn't for cooperating with those necromancers, they would have gone back to the stronghold on the top of the mountain. Unfortunately, those undead who only know how to talk big are useless, which made the tribe consume a lot of warriors.

Many half-orc priests regretted it. When necromancers and white dragons can only choose one or the other, how could they be so stupid to choose these useless guys!
Shouldn't be trying to threaten those white dragons just because they're always catching lone orcs for food!
Let's try to reconcile with Bailong in the future...

The half-orc priests, full of resentment, left with their subordinates dejectedly... Fortunately, they left early.

Otherwise, he would be as bewildered as Hill.

Alvia Tulais suddenly landed outside the city, and gave Edna, who was cleaning the battlefield with the 'Old Sanda King', a bouquet of pink flowers: bell-like flowers stacked on top of each other, dotted with beautiful spots and patterns.

The little girl was not afraid at all, and directly accepted the bouquet of flowers excitedly. She looked up at the White Dragon Queen: "Beautiful Ms. White Dragon, what should I call you? What can I do for you?"

Alvia Tules stretched her neck, spread her wings slightly, and showed her most beautiful smile: "Hello, I'm Alvia Tules."
