Glancing at the document signed by Kelburn, Xia Yuan Taiyijun shrugged his shoulders: "Your Excellency the City Lord is not slow, but there are a few things I must make clear to everyone in Deep Water City. ”

With a snap of his fingers, the neighing of horses and a series of dog barking came from the clinic reception room, and a teak coffee table was like a reserved pony, and the four coffee table legs walked in front of Marco and Xia Yuan Taiyijun with elegant steps, and gathered its "hooves" to a suitable angle.

The two single sofas are like overactive long-haired sheepdogs, making dog-like howls, lowering their "backs" and holding up the buttocks of magicians and "legendary psionic masters".

Holding an ivory teapot decorated with enamel paintings, Ainantosugi made a cup of herbal tea for the great magician who came to represent the Black Rod Tower.

Marko nodded to the handsome liaison, then turned his gaze to the face of the "Psionic Master".

There was a half-elf smile in his eyes that was half mocking, half sarcastic, but that didn't stop him from still being gentle and polite:

"It is well known that Waterdeep, ruled by the wise Kelburn the Blackrod Aurosan, and his beautiful and gentle wife, Leila Silverhand, never included Skull Harbor. Because if Skull Harbor were to be part of Waterdeep, Waterdeep would no longer be the praised 'City of Radiance', but a city of crime, smuggling, and slave trade. ”

"Your Excellency the Lord of the City has been working to give the residents of Skull Harbor more legal rights. Marco protested.

"But Lord Kelburn and Lady Leila have never been able to restrain the old madman of Hyraster Blackrobe. "Mr. Idriel" replied unceremoniously, "For example, Dunstrano, the most famous slave trader in Skull Harbor, is under the protection of that black-robed old madman, and the wise lord of the city is helpless against it. Because the venerable city lord and his wife can only maintain a fragile balance with Hylast, let the black-robed old madman stay in the leyline maze below the skull harbor and do whatever he wants, but he is not allowed to invade the territory of Waterdeep. ”

Marco could only defend the sarcasm of the "Half-Elf Psionic Master": "For one of the most powerful evil wizards in the records of the kingdoms, making him make such a concession is already a great victory for the forces of good. ”

"Then ask that Mr. Aurosang of the Blackrod Tower to face this head-on, since the civilization and justice of Waterdeep have always ignored the once sinful land of Skull, intentionally or unintentionally, then the very fact of 'handing over the governance of Skullport to Idril Raymond Guyton' is a joke in itself. After the Black Robe of Hyraste, the Lord of the Leylines, froze his own time, the new protector and rebuilder of this port city does not need a boring seat at the Council of the Secret Lords of Waterdeep, but demands your compensation!"

Marko shook his head in frustration, he wasn't surprised that the "half-elf master" had turned down a seat at the Council of Secret Lords of Waterdeep. While the Council of Secret Lords can decide most of the administrative affairs of Waterdeep, Kelburn Aurosang will always have a veto power when it comes to real policies.

For a high-ranking mage like Malcius Sindore, the Secret Lord is a very tempting throne. But for a legendary psionic master who slew the black dragon Ulharin Doros and forced the black robe of Hyrust to freeze itself, the Secret Lord was a worthless position.

For Waterdeep, it would be a big problem if there were two powerful spellcasters with one veto at the same time.

In the end, it was Marco who took the initiative to give in: "Your will will be respected, so please tell me what exactly you want?"

"Skull Harbor has been destroyed in the Dragon Wars. "The old madman of schizophrenia and the notorious smuggling port will be buried in the grave, and on the corpses of the old port, I will build a new city, one that is not inferior to the city of Deep Water." ”

"What's the name of the new port?"

"There is a ballad that says, 'When friends come, there is wine, and when jackals come there are guns,' then the new city will be called the Coral Cup Terrace, for all visitors of good will. ”

Marco admits that the myriad white pinnacles that stand on the ruins of Skull Harbor are as beautiful as coral reefs in warm ocean currents, and that "Coral Cup Mesada" is a veritable name of beauty.

Who would have thought that Skull Harbor, once ruled by villains and scoundrels, and the mad mages who unwittingly acted as an umbrella for the villains, would be swept away after a devastating dragon war. There is no doubt that this new city, reshaped by the power of miracles, will usher in an incredibly bright future.

"Your will will be known to His Excellency Kelburn. Marco stood up respectfully and withdrew the certificate of authorization from Waterdeep, "All the wise men of Waterdeep will welcome this change and accept a new city of order and goodwill as our neighbor." ”

"However, this will destroy the most important conduit for some of Waterdeep, perhaps including the nouveau riche of Amm or even the Bann Divine Slaves of the Santarin. In front of Marko, the half-elf Idrir Raymond Gaton smiled more like a dragon ready to start hunting, "Order itself is born of chaos, and the new order of the Coral Cup Mesa is still a seedling, and it needs countless chaos conflicts and blood to water. ”

As Kelburn's assistant magician, Marco was not surprised that the other party's speech could kill an old black dragon's legendary psionic master, and it would be strange to tolerate the provocations of the thieves' guilds, slave traders, and pirate groups. In fact, among Kelburn's many powerful wives and sisters is a stormy ranger knight who is willing to chop up all the slave traders and tyrannical lords she encounters along the way.

The Legendary Mighty and the Good Dragon are pretty much the same kind of creatures, and even if you know the other person's kindness, it's hard to ask him or her to reason from a relatively equal perspective.

Therefore, Marco only showed a non-startled and commonplace look, and replied gently, "Waterdeep is willing to fully cooperate with your actions and provide construction funds to your new city. ”

"Thank you Waterdeep for your assistance and friendship, and please extend my sincerest greetings on my behalf to Lord Aurosan, the Blackrod of Kelburn, and Lady Lyra's Silverhand. "Mr. Idrir" responded. 2k reading web
