After that, Emilia and the others resupplied the city of the underground gnomes, and then hit the road again——— fortunately, with the guidance of the underground gnomes, at least they would not be confused about the dark area anymore, and the other party also gave them a map of the vicinity. So Emilia and the others packed up and set out on a journey to find Master Kelburn's nephew again.

"How long are we from our destination?"

Clenching the sword in his hand, Kasim looked at Emilia and asked, of course they weren't running around like headless flies, after all, finding someone in the dark without any clues was tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack. Luckily, Master Kelburn knew this, and he gave Emilia a magic compass that would indicate where Kelburn's nephew was, and the closer he got, the compass would begin to tremble slightly, and the closer he got there, the faster it trembled.

They relied on this compass to find people before, but ......... I didn't find anyone, but I encountered a lot of trouble.

"I think it's going to be soon."

Emilia was also vigilant in her long sword, and at the same time pressed the compass on her waist with one hand, she could feel the compass trembling slightly, indicating that they were moving in the right direction.

But at the same time, the three of them were very nervous, because according to the map given to them by the underground gnomes, this place was close to the city of the drow elfs, although according to the underground gnomes, the city had been destroyed, but ......... Considering Duanmu Huai's previous warning, they were still careful and careful.

“—————！！”

The further they walked, the more the compass trembled, which cheered up the trio, and they watched cautiously, fortunately the glowing moss of the area illuminated the surrounding landscape, so that the trio could see the surroundings clearly without risking the torch.

"Right here."

At the entrance of a cave, Amelia also took a deep breath and whispered to the two, and then she cautiously poked her head out and looked into the cave.

In the light of the fluorescent moss, Emilia could clearly see a flowing stream in the cave with some huge underground mushrooms nearby, but soon Emilia noticed that there was a tent and a extinguished campfire in a clearing not far from the stream, and it was obvious that someone had lived here.

"Right there?"

"Let's go and see."

Although she saw the tent, Emilia thought something strange because there was no one keeping vigil nearby, and everyone seemed to be sleeping in the tent, which was obviously not right. It's just on the ground, but deep into the dark region until now, when Emilia and the others are resting, they all take turns to guard, and they never dare to do this.

But here......... Is it no one?

But that's where the sign points to it.........

As she pondered, Emilia cautiously approached the camp with Cassim and Rosha, and then she stretched out her sword and slammed it at the tent!

“—————！”

Perhaps it was Amelia's luck, but at this moment, Emilia noticed a shadow appearing behind them, only to see Amelia hurriedly turn around and swing her sword, just enough to block the attack from behind. At the same time, she could see the assailant's true face——— which was pitch black, dressed in strange leather armor, wielding a thin sword, with white hair and red eyes.........

"It's the Drow Elf, be careful!"

Emilia was shocked in her heart, she shouted loudly to remind the two, and at the same time swung away the attack of the drow elves, at the same time, Kasim and Roxia also took out their weapons, only to see Kasim draw his long sword, and suddenly waved it forward, the whistling sword qi directly swept the entire camp, forcing back the other two drow elves, and soon, several more figures appeared from all directions, surrounding the three of them.

Mistaken!

Looking at the drow elves surrounding her, Emilia gritted her teeth, she didn't expect to encounter the most notorious guys in this dark region......... There are nine people on the other side, and there are only three on his side, but ...............

"In the name of Tyre, I will never fall here! Die, wicked drow! The light of justice will destroy you completely! ”

While speaking, Emilia raised her long sword, and the next moment, a dazzling light instantly erupted from her sword, and this sudden strong light suddenly shocked the drow elves, living underground they are most afraid of the strong light, and at this moment, the holy light that Emilia burst out of is an extra layer of divine power, making these drow elves cover their eyes in pain and retreat, and Emilia took the opportunity to clench the long sword and pounce towards the enemy in front of .........!

"Wait a minute!"

Just then, a man appeared in front of Amelia and stopped her from moving.

"I don't know who you are, but it's a misunderstanding!"

"Misunderstanding?"

Hearing the man's words, Emilia paused slightly, but she did not put down her long sword, but stared vigilantly at the man who suddenly appeared in front of her——— he was not a drow elf, judging from his appearance, he should be an adventurer from the surface, but this man's dress was a little embarrassed, his beard was also a lot, and the leather armor on his body was tattered.........

At this moment, the bright light dissipated, and Casim and Roxia also re-put on a fighting posture, vigilantly surrounding Amilia's side.

"Who are you?"

Emilia asked as she stared at the man, who saluted her respectfully.

"Hello, Paladin of Tyre, I'm Danilo. Sarn, a harpist. ”

"Huh?"

Hearing the man's words, Emilia was stunned.

"You're Danilo. Sarn? Master Kelburn's nephew? ”

"That's right."

Danilo nodded at Amelia.

"Since you know who I am, you didn't happen to be here...............

"I'm not going to answer your questions, especially if you're sheltering the Drow Elf."

Emilia clenched her sword again, she wasn't the kind of paladin who was a legalistic paladin, and if she took 10,000 steps back, even if the other party was really Danilo. Sarn, but why did he protect the Drow Elf? Could it be that he was controlled by the Drow Elves? Manipulated? Brainwashed? Or has he degenerated enough to become a lackey of the Drow Elves?

If the latter is the case, then Emilia will have no choice but to uphold her responsibilities as a paladin of Tyre and eradicate the evil.

After all......... When Master Kelburn gave him the commission, he didn't say that he had to be alive.

It should be possible to bring your head back with you.

"They are drows, but they are not evil drows."

“？？？”

Hearing Danilo's answer, the crowd became more and more confused, and just then, one of the Drow elves stepped forward.

"We're not Drow who believe in the spider god, we believe in the dark girl Elisetsu, so we're not your enemies."

"But that's not what you just did."

Of course, Emilia wouldn't be stupid enough to let her guard down just because of a few words from the other party, not to mention that the attacks of these drow elves were dangerous at the time.

"Because we thought you were Mr. Danilo's enemies, that's why we tried to contain you."

"I don't understand what you mean."

"I'll leave it to me."

At this time, Danilo also hurriedly spoke, and then he explained to Emilia the cause and effect of the incident.

It turned out that the drow elves had discovered Emilia and the others several days earlier, and at that time they thought it was just a coincidence, so they were just spying on them. But soon they found out that Emilia and the others were obviously heading for Danilo, and no matter how they changed direction, Emilia and the others would catch up.

As mentioned before, as one of the masked lords of Waterdeep and the nephew of Kelburn's Black Staff, he also has a certain political value in his own right. Therefore, at that time, Danilo suspected that the people were trying to hunt him down, so they specially designed this trap, and then lured Emilia and others over.

The reason why Danilo jumped out to stop it later was because he saw the holy light emitted by Amelia——— which was a powerful power that only a god-favored knight would have, not to mention that Emilia was still a believer in Tyre, and Danilo was not a heinous person, obviously Amelia and the others naturally couldn't come here to hunt him down, so he dared to show up to stop it.

"But you still haven't explained why you're with a bunch of drow elves."

Despite Danilo's words, Emilia wouldn't let her guard down so easily.

"It's a long story......... But I'll explain it to you. ”

Danilo smiled wryly and began to explain to Amilia.

At first, they infiltrated the Dark Lands for the sake of adventure, but then they were attacked by the Drow Elves, and Danilo's adventuring team was almost wiped out, and only a few of them survived and were taken to the Drow Elf's city.

Danilo thought he was dead, but on the way, another group of drow elves attacked the group and rescued Danilo and the other two adventurers. At that time, Danilo learned that the drow elves who attacked the slave traders were the followers of the dark girl Eliestria——— she was also the god of the drow elves, but she protected the kind drow elves who rebelled against the spider queen.

After that, Danilo went along with them, and Danilo wanted to return to the surface immediately, but after learning of the civil strife caused by the Drow Elves, he decided to stay and investigate the matter with the Drow Elves, and as a harpist, Danilo instinctively felt that something seemed to be wrong with this matter.

That's why they came to the ruined city of drow elves to see if they could find any useful clues, and they ran into Emilia and the others.........

"I see."

Emilia put down her sword, she had already used the magic of "detecting lies" on Danilo just now, but it had not changed, which meant that what Danilo said was the truth.

"Then we don't have to hide it, in fact, we came to the dark region to look for you in the name of Master Kelburn, and Master Kelburn also gave me a compass........."

"I see."

Seeing the compass in Amelia's hand, Danilo was speechless.

"No wonder he finds me wherever I run........."

Muttering to himself, Danilo sighed, and then he looked up and stared at Emilia with a serious face.

"I'm grateful that you're willing to risk your lives deep into the shadows to save me, but I'm sorry, I can't leave right now. The drow elves' civil strife is unexpected, and there must be some secrets hidden in it that we don't yet know, and perhaps it will pose a threat to Waterdeep on the surface and the human world, and I must investigate. ”

"This ..............."

Hearing Danilo's answer, Emilia was speechless for a moment, of course she had heard of the mysterious organization of harpers, and it was rumored that they were always active in the shadows, eliminating all evil threats. However, there are also many people who do not have a good opinion of harpists, because harpers are not as well-behaved as the paladins of Tyre, and they often act on their own initiative, so that many local leaders are disgusted with these elusive guys.

As the paladin of Tyre, there is no grudge between Emilia and the harpist, and strictly speaking, they are both fighting for justice, so it stands to reason that Emilia should also join in the investigation, but .........

"We were advised to stay away as much as possible from this civil strife."

"What?"

Hearing this, both Danilo and Drow Elves changed their faces.

"Where did you hear that?"

"Our companions, so to speak......... We still have a lot of trust in him, and since he's asking us to stay away as much as possible, I think we're ............ It's better not to continue to participate. ”

Amelia's trust in Duanmu Locust is still very high, just like in Neverwinter, he saw at first glance that Deszel had a problem, and at that time, including Emilia and Erebes, he was right. And this time in the dark region, since he has already sent someone to pass the word, then......... Emilia decided to comply with Duanmu Locust's request.

Although she didn't know what was wrong with Zhuo'er, since Duanmu Huai said it was best not to get close, then .........

"Excuse me, can you please elaborate further? It's important to us. ”

"Even if you ask me to explain ........."

Looking at the eager drow elf, Emilia frowned as well.

"I've only gotten this kind of rumor, and I don't know the specifics........."

"If we can, we'd like to be able to talk to that friend of yours, it's about the survival of the Drow........."

"Hey..............."

However, as soon as the drow elf's words fell, a sigh rang out.

"Really, why is it so troublesome, wouldn't it be better to get out of here?"

The next moment, I saw two petite figures descending from the sky and appearing in front of everyone, they were two girls with long silver-white hair and black dresses.

"Miss Aujis?!"

"Hello."

Ogis nodded at Amelia.

"I think you've heard from the master from the flail."

"Ah, yes..............."

"Wait a minute, young lady."

Danilo stood up again, looking at Ogis and Rose, the former expressionless, the latter glaring at him unpleasantly.

"Do you know what's going on? Please also be sure to tell me ........."

“…………………”

O'Kis was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"The owner allows you to talk to him."

As she spoke, Ogis stretched out her arm and tapped lightly on it, and soon everyone saw a strange rectangular screen appear, and in it appeared the armor of Duanmu Huai.

"Yo, Amelia, Casim, Rosha, still alive, how does it feel to be in the Dark Lands?"

Duanmu Huai waved his hand at the three of them, which was regarded as a greeting.

"It's really dangerous......... Speaking of which, Mr. Duanmu, why did you leave us? ”

"Sorry, didn't I say it's a bit of a rush? But just see you're okay......... So, who's looking for me? ”

"Hello, I'm Danilo. Sarn. ”

Danilo stepped forward and looked at the image of Duanmu Locust.

"May I ask ......... about the recent Drow Civil War?"

"Oh, I did it."

“…………… Ay? ”

Maybe Duanmu Huai replied too freely, so that a group of people didn't react at all.

"............... you?"

"That's right, drow elves are just like cockroaches, and keeping them is a scourge, isn't it? So I thought of a way to kill them all and be done, and now I'm busy sweeping up the four evils. ”

"You, how can you do this!"

Hearing this, the drow elf behind couldn't help but scold.

"Even if most of the Drow Elves follow the evil teachings of the Spider Queen, there are still some Drow Elves who are pure........."

"What does this have to do with me?"

But before the Drow Elf could finish speaking, he was coldly interrupted by Duanmu Huai.

"I think you may not have figured it out, our Inquisition has never fought for justice, we have fought to protect humanity, and any demons, heretics and aliens that threaten humanity will be wiped out by the Inquisition. Since the drow elves dared to attack the swaggering Upper Waterdeep City, it means that the drow race is a threat to humanity, and as for whether there are innocent, kind, and righteous drows among them, the Inquisition does not care and does not care. Anyone who poses a threat to humanity, whether it's drow, spirit-absorbing monsters, dwarves, or even elves or angels, we will kill them. ”

"You......... What do you say..............."

At this moment, even Danilo's face changed drastically.

"It's our responsibility to eradicate the aliens that threaten humanity, not to mention the rat-like existence of Drow, I advise you to stop here, if you're foolish enough to continue to get involved, then ............... Don't blame me for not reminding you. ”

After saying this, Duanmu Huai directly cut off the communication.

At this moment in the camp, everyone was stunned and speechless.
