readx;?“ Why am I fed up with this damn weather, this damn rain, this damn road, this damn mud, this damn frost, and this horrible group of companions, I'm going to go into town, I need a warm bed, delicious pine nut wine, delicious beef ribs," little Daniel, who had been in a belly full of anger, finally broke out, chattering in front of everyone to vent his dissatisfaction and resentment these days. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Harvey looked at Daniel with some surprise, and realized that he was the only one of them who was a normal ordinary person, so he asked, "Who are you?"

Daniel was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that he was mixing with a group of "ruthless people", and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and stammered a little: "It's a student of Tutor Mariel, the ** master of Deep Water City."

When Harvey heard Daniel report the name of his mentor Mariel, he couldn't help but shudder in his heart, and did not dare to continue to interrogate the poor young man. Without him, Mariel's name is too famous, and this fame does not refer to Mariel's strength, but her laughable personality. Of course, Mariel's strength is not weak, as a powerful dragon mage, Mariel's strength belongs to the same level as Kelburn Black Battle and Ilminster, and they all belong to the top powerhouses of the main material plane.

It's just that compared to other strong people, the dragon mage Mariel is a bit of a suspicion of non-business in some aspects. Just like ordinary people like Harvey, people's fear of Mariel is not as much as that of ordinary ** teachers, only out of awe of mysterious powers, but more because of Mariel's unscrupulous and unscrupulous behavior, unpredictable bad temper of acting both good and evil, and of course, her greed for treasure.

Harvey carefully looked at the embarrassed Daniel again, although the little white face in front of him was quite thin and tender, but he didn't look like a master who could come up with a large amount of astronomical wealth. He asked suspiciously, "Are you sure you're not lying?If you're really the apprentice of Master Mariel, why are you here?"

The corners of Daniel's mouth twitched fiercely, and he involuntarily glanced back at Celis, who was smiling quietly next to him, and said a little sneeringly: "What I said is that I have really paid off the debt on the contract and redeemed the freedom that belongs to me." ”

Harvey also noticed Celis, his slightly sparse eyebrows raised, and he lowered his voice: "I understand, no wonder Bloodclaw will go crazy, hehe, I hope the pursuers of Waterdeep City will not also brave the rain to hurry, are these people the escort mercenaries you invited?" Harvey pointed to William's family.

Daniel hurriedly waved his hand and said: Yes, we met them halfway, not all the way. ”

Harvey nodded and said, "Okay, I don't care who you offend, you can go into the city, but it's better to be honest, don't stir up trouble in the city, and be careful not to get entangled in trouble." With that, he waved his hand and motioned for Daniel to step aside and wait.

The coachman, Sandro, was allowed to see Daniel

Xu, hurriedly came up and said: "Mr. Guard, Mr. Guard, I am the coachman hired by Mr. Daniel, a really good coachman." Mr. Daniel can prove it, right?"

Harvey tilted his head back to move away from Sandro because the coachman smelled of horse shit and horse urine, and he didn't hide his disgust, he frowned and asked, "Damn, did you let the mare ride, this one is disgusting, I think I know you, the wicked coachman in Waterdeep who often travels to and from the market and the skull harbor, and your carriage has carried countless poor people." Honestly, I'd love to let you rain in this wilderness for weeks, what about your damn carriage?"

(Officials in Waterdeep prohibit citizens from keeping slaves, but Skull Harbor, the underground part of the city, is the largest slave smuggling hub in the entire Northlands, accounting for more than sixty or seventy percent of the slave trade in the entire Jianwan area every year, and the city's administrators have always acquiesced to the fact that whenever the citizens of the city buy slaves, they will return to the above-ground part of the city in a closed carriage.) ）

Sandro said with a dejected face, "It's all to blame for this damn bad weather, my poor carriage broke down halfway, and I lost four of my best horses, I knew I shouldn't have run this business." Sandro didn't dare to directly say that his carriage was affected by William's family, and years of social experience had taught him that some people could not be offended, such as powerful beings like William.

Harvey sneered gloatingly, "I hope you'll be able to recover your wagon and the wreckage of your horse when the rain stops, but if you want to buy a new carriage in Sicambu, you'll have to pay double the price." ”

After laughing at the coachman, Harvey asked, "One thing I wonder is, how difficult the road is this season everyone knows, why are your feet so clean?"

Sandro turned his head to look at William and Yasuna, and saw that the two had no intention of stopping him, so he replied cautiously: "Mr. William's companion is a powerful spellcaster, she has the power to control the frost, and the mud on the road is frozen, and we have stepped on the frost all the way, of course, we will not be contaminated with the mud." ”

After a pause, Sandro added: "Mr. William, their strength deserves everyone's respect, and they even almost killed a terrifying Salon spirit on the way."

Harvey's face began to become solemn, no one knew better than the people of Xicambe that their "neighbor" - the Salon Spirit was powerful, and it seemed that the relationship between the Salon Spirit and the neighboring cities was quite good, and those powerful "neighbors" should not conflict with others for no reason. Harvey cautiously gestured to his companions at the head of the city, touched his chest with one hand and bowed lightly to William, and said, "This Mr. William, please forgive me for being rude, but I don't know why you are here?" A middle-aged man in his forties and fifties saluted a young hairy boy, this picture is really a bit inconsistent, but Harvey doesn't care about this, he regards William as a powerful and abnormal change.

The reason is very simple, although magic is powerful, it is not omnipotent, even if it is the best teacher Ilminster, it is impossible to freeze the muddy road all the way and hurry on the frost. Regardless of whether Lao Yi has this ability or not, even if he has, he will not dare to do this, otherwise the mysterious lady will definitely not be able to spare him. The Goddess of Magic's credo is that the more people who know ordinary magic, the better, and that all the people in the world learn to cast spells (with the help of a magical network), that the less arcane magic is used, the better, and that all casters never use a single arcane magic for the rest of their lives.

There is a limit to the spell position of the spell release with the help of the magic network, even if the ** master can use the spell in a day, there are few spells, and only some creatures with special talents can use a spell infinitely.

William knew that there would be twists and turns in entering the city, and now he could only pull a tiger skin to make a big flag, so he took out a wood-carved harp-shaped horn from his bosom, which William had carved himself according to the token that Captain Morgan used when he entered Yata. William shook his horn in front of Harvey, then quickly withdrew it into his arms and whispered, "We are entrusted by Lady Erastro of Silvermoon City on a secret mission. Don't worry, I won't be in the city for long."

As soon as Harvey saw the horn, he immediately changed his attitude, and the nervousness on his body immediately disappeared, and he said with a little ease: "It turned out to be a friend of Lady Radiant, no wonder okay, you can enter the city, but it is inevitable to accept the inspection of the [Detection Spell], are you companions together?"

William had already asked Yasuna about the [Detection Spell], the others were nothing, but Yasuna's identity as a frost giant could not be concealed, except with the help of the power of Kohl's horn, but William did not want to continue to hide like this, so he pointed to Yasuna and said: "Wait a minute, this companion of mine is a frost giant, she was the leader of a small frost giant tribe on the spine of the world, and was later defeated by Lady Erastro and subdued her, her temper is very bad, to be honest, I really don't want to go on this mission with her"

"Are you sure you're not talking about the one holding the baby?" Harvey was a little confused, and in his opinion, Phinea was more like a frost giant.

William shrugged and said half-truthfully, "That's her daughter Finia." Phinea had grown up in Silvermoon City, and she seemed to me more reassuring than her mother. ”

Eventually, Harvey allowed William and his party into the city, but everyone was detected by the mage's advisors, including Yasuna. Sure enough, the spell revealed that Asuna was a giant, but there was no indication of the Light of Evil (a test of the Detect Evil spell would be performed for aliens like Assuna).

The city is not too big, the whole city is divided into two parts, the inner city is mainly the living quarters of the residents and lords of the city, and the outer city is mainly the settlement area of foreign settlers and traders, and most of the taverns and inns are also concentrated in this area. Travelers of suspicious origin, like William, are not allowed to run around after entering the city.

They can only go to designated out-of-town hotels for accommodation.

The main streets of the city are paved with stone slabs, but most of the alleys are still muddy roads, and the continuous rain makes the streets of the outer city empty.
