Surviving the Fourth Calamity

Chapter 894 Long-lost old friend

Hill stood in front of the window, looking towards the south of Aglaia: "I don't know what's going on in Waterdeep City now."

What he wants to know most now is what exactly fell into the hands of Waterdeep City, which attracted such a crazy and massive invasion by the drows, even knowing that the indifferent and somewhat hostile relationship between Hill and Kelben is still unreliable. To prevent him from interfering.

Although Selûne is sometimes confused, at least she won't even be confused about what can kill Shar...that's something she can discover intuitively, and she doesn't need her judgment at all.

"The roars of the dragons last night were not limited to those from Aglaia." Lynn replied quickly, "The giant dragons in Waterdeep City usually don't help humans defend against foreign enemies...they usually just hide in their own Chamber of Secrets."

"Aren't the dragon's secret chambers underground?" Hill laughed, but Drow came out of the underground passage.

"Although it can't be seen above Waterdeep City, people in the underground world basically know where the underground caves lead to the dragon." Lynn explained, "So... there must be a certain dragon in Drow's target. It's a pity It was so far away that even Terry and Tusteen couldn't tell which was wrong.

I just don't know if the drows got what they wanted before they suddenly retreated.

I've paid a sum to the Harpers, and since it's nothing to do with Kelben, I reckon they'll still sell us the right news.

Anyway, Miril has not yet withdrawn from the Harper, and the current leader of the Harper, Storm Silverhand, has been trying to keep the bard back. "

Hill nodded and shook his head regretfully, "The black-robed master really didn't show up..."

He thought he could see the Black Rod Tower blown up into the sky before the sun rose... Helast Black Robe is very proficient in the art of explosion, and when he was in the underground world, he was basically irrational.

The reason why Kelben has a high status in Waterdeep City is that his magic tower is actually suppressed at the place closest to Waterdeep City 'under the mountain'. If something goes wrong, he must be the first to face the black robe's bombardment ...It's a pity.

"The singer said that the black robe likes to be compared with Elminster very much... So he probably also learned from that master to build a planet of his own... Maybe now it is between the asteroids of the Tears of Selûne Stay here."

Hill would never suspect that one of Toril's biggest sources of gossip would be wrong, and he couldn't help curling his lips: "It's cheaper for the Harbell family...fortunately...we protected Edna.

At this stage, if the Harbell family wants to do anything to the little girl, they will probably be discouraged... The White Dragon Queen may not be as intelligent as those archmages, but she will definitely not lose to them in cunning. "

Hill almost bit his tongue, but fortunately he changed the subject in time... He couldn't say in front of Lynn, 'Fortunately, Mirrill is fast enough to spread the word'...

Even if Lynn and Miril knew why Hill spoke so clearly, they couldn't scold the bald donkey in front of the monk!

"How many dark mages do you think 'under the mountain' will be involved in this robbery?" Hill asked curiously.

"There are a lot of outsiders, right?" Lynn replied hesitantly, "As long as you have been in contact with that black robe, you won't be lucky... He seems to have set some boundaries for himself. If there is something unclear Even if he is going crazy, he will go to the ground to think about it.

As long as he comes into contact with the sun, he will quickly return to sanity.

Hill, that's an archmage over level 45, I don't think he can't find any idiots who dare to attack their homeland. "

"In other words, the Harbell family will never leave anything in the maze?" Hill looked at him, "Then why did they participate? It's no secret that Drow borrowed this matter from them. "

"There used to be an archmage in the Harbell family, who was more talented than Marco now, but unfortunately died when the black robe went crazy... They used the excuse that it was normal, and Master Helast would not kill them because of this "Lin En explained, "Besides, the father of the archmage seems to be still alive, I'll go find out if he's dying... The revenge of a mad father before his death, even Hellas Te won't do much.

After all, he is still an archmage, and he knows the importance of mage inheritance. In Toril, there are very few archmages who directly attack a mage family that has been passed down for a long time like Harbel. Basically, it is whoever kills who, not Kill their families. "

Hill blinked and nodded understandingly. Otherwise, Trasil's Mage Association disgusted him back then, and he wouldn't hesitate to kill him. Inheritance seems unimportant to mages, but it really is. I still hesitate when I encounter it.

The same is true for the archmages like Toril, no matter the camp of good or evil, they will not easily attack apprentices... Of course, that must not affect their interests.

Anyway, he has revealed everything that the Harbell family has done, so the sulking is over... As for how the relevant people plan to deal with this family, it has nothing to do with him.

Lynn looked at Hill: "I have something to ask you. When defending the city, not only the city guards participated, but also the people in the university city, including those dwarves and gnomes. I want to include them The category of meritorious rewards."

Hill said disapprovingly: "For me, if you pay, you should get something. They are willing to contribute to the territory, and of course they should get the rewards they deserve.

You don't need to ask me about the things you took out of the Aglaia city warehouse. If you need something from my private warehouse, let Martha communicate with Liszt.

Don't ask me such trivial matters. "

Lynn nodded: "When it is confirmed, I will ask Martha to notify Liszt to show you the list, please stamp your seal of the city lord.

The first time is always different, not just a small seal. "

Hill nodded: "I see. By the way, Lynn, the undead will probably rest for 4 to 8 days, so, can I know Rose's goal before they set off again?

Most importantly, I want to know if she succeeded... I really can't think of anything that can deal with Shar, could it be a fragment of the Fate Tablet? "

Lynn laughed: "Maybe it's just something she thinks is okay. After all, Toril has many 'famous' artifacts."

While they were talking, Martha and Liszt quickly counted up the prepared list of rewards... Within Aglaia's control area, as long as they were outside, nothing could be hidden from Martha's eyes.

Liszt's review is just a routine matter, and Martha will basically not make mistakes... It can cause problems for the tower spirit, unless the powerful divine power directly changes the energy circuit of the tower spirit.

After urging Hill to cover the seal of the city lord, Lynn left in a hurry... He hoped to distribute the military merits as quickly as possible, not for the city guards who were used to the generous rewards of Hill's territory, but for those in the university city. students and teachers.

Especially those students... There are already a lot of civilians in Aglaia City, and Lynn has always hoped that there will be more officials who can assist him in his work.

If these students who had been living within Martha's field of vision for some time were willing to stay, then Lynn would not need such a long observation period.

Toril's appointment of officials is sometimes an adventure... No one knows if a cult member will be produced. Lynn never thought that the detection camp would be 100% effective. The limitations of that kind of spell, live Anyone who grows can understand.

Hill held his chin and watched Lynn disappear at the gate of the city hall, a little hesitant... He knew what Lynn was busy with recently, but he was really not sure whether he should send a copy of the legendary oil painting in his inventory to Lynn.

But he still gave up. The Toril people almost lived in lies... Whether they were gods or ordinary people, they all lied to others and themselves at the same time.

Hill felt that even if he gave it to Lynn, he might not have the courage to use it.

Three days later, Hill received a thick report from Waterdeep City from Lynn... Hill, who didn't know why Lynn left so quickly and smiled strangely, couldn't control the corners of his mouth twitching when he opened it. up.

The thing that made Rose think that it could help her deal with Shar turned out to be the Holy Grail of Amaunata... She seemed to think that this thing could not only widen the gap in the shadow world, but also make Amaunata and Shaar, who were obviously planning to be resurrected direct conflict.

As for that unlucky dragon... it was the male ancient giant black dragon Lich Dogosus who didn't know why there was an extra cup in his treasure house in Waterdeep City.

But this giant dragon is very satisfied with the cup he got. Even though there are only a bunch of bones left, he has been trying to use this cup... that is, because he unscrupulously used the ability of the Holy Grail of Amanata to help people resurrect, This incident was passed to Rose's ears.

how to say?Dogothos is an aspirational dracolich: he's trying to gain all the abilities of a normal black dragon, and multiply and breed his own new dragon species adequately in a "back to life" (OOXX, really) way.

Because of his strange wish, even Hill, who doesn't pay much attention to these dragons, knows him very well... But Dogosos didn't become a dracolich willingly, so he can understand that he would be unwilling.

He likes music and accompaniment, has a strong and permanent curiosity and an amazing memory. In the Northland, the beautiful bard lady has been warned: it is a dangerous thing to be invited to the campfire by a strange lone man. Because he might be more than a harpist, he might be a bony dragon...unless you have a good singing voice, you might suffer misfortune.

Hill raised his head abruptly, recalling what he was thinking when he threw the cup out... This result seems to be quite normal.
