Chapter 539: Scattering the Hundred Gods (2)

The little sword-wielding boy seems to be a little too lively and active, but when it comes to "the Emperor of Relief of Misfortune", or "the supreme king of relief of misfortune" in accordance with the local language, he is really engrossed and does not have the slightest distraction.

Beneath Waterdeep, most of the port area that was once half-hidden and half-hidden is now in sight, leaving only a few underground gorges leading to the underworld. "Master Idrir" was standing on a white-stone pier that had just been built, listening to a report from a skeletal head who had made himself into a jewelry box:

"Fossils turn into mud and then mud into stone, these two variations are not very difficult to magic, but we always have a limited number of spell slots. In the case of the small pier under your feet, it is made of the most common basalt in the area, except for the outer layer of stone 'paint', which is made of perlite. As he spoke, the idle skeletal head narrowed his non-existent eyes: "The reflection is very good, and the white pier is like an ice floe that never melts in the sun." Well, this is what a mermaid merchant from the north said. ”

"And, of course, these merchant ships. Gently knocking the gold teeth full of mouths, the "jewelry box" that basically couldn't see the appearance of a skeleton skulled towards the other side of the dock: "The Arcane Brotherhood is finished, and those Luskan pirate ships roaming in Sword Bay have no backstage, and the ship mages they hired can't provide much spell support, and they have been captured a lot by the navy of Waterdeep City during this time." Of course, we've also picked some of the best quality along the way. ”

As he spoke, the "jewel box" fluttered to the bow of a merchant ship, on which a gilded griffin statue was lazily lying.

"The Golden Griffin, the flagship of a pirate family in Luskan, is the trophy of the most recent joint law enforcement at sea. However, compared to these bells and whistles, the ship itself is worth more. The hull is made entirely of high-grade chestnut wood, which is as strong and hard as a regular knight's breastplate, and has been reinforced with Arcane Brotherhood materials, so the ship will never have a fire problem except for magical flames. ”

Looking at the merchant ships in front of him, Xia Yuan Taiyijun shrugged his shoulders The precious wealth of these Luskan pirate groups, put in the Age of Discovery, it is also a well-deserved artifact, enough for adventurers to become the "Overlord of the Seven Seas". But for a highly developed civilization, these seafaring ships that have only undergone initial magical enhancement can only be regarded as civilian ships.

Lishi wood is as hard as iron, it does not burn when it encounters fire, and the Changbai Mountain Vajra wood is nothing more than that. However, the sailing ship made of Kurishi was not much better off than a frontal shot of the main cannon of the Yamato, and was hit head-on by a field gun of the Meiji 38 year.

And even in this world, this simple enchanted pirate ship sounds quite capable of bluffing, but in front of the real "high-tech products", it is just a toy.

Just in the southern part of the continent, in the mage country of Harua, those remnants of the ancient magic empire have already opened several flying ship routes. Although the materials of these Harua brand magic ships are expensive, and the flight power is even more gem-burning, few of the bigwigs in Waterdeep can afford to pay for fuel. But this technological development is more or less a kind of progress, although it is not as good as the floating city built by their ancestors.

However, you can't be too ambitious, and as a new port rebuilt on Skull Harbor, there must be merchant ships, escort ships, and patrol ships. On the one hand, it connects the deep-water port area of Waterwater, and on the other hand, its underground gorge connects the tunnels of the dark region and many underground rivers and saltwater lakes, which is the most closely connected area between the surface world and the underground world.

Judging from the information seized by several illegal chambers of commerce in Skull Harbor, there is a glimmer sea connecting the dark region in the underground smuggling channel of Skull Harbor. It is the underground Aral Sea formed by the flooding of the dark area, and it is a natural barrier and excellent waterway for the south and north of the dark area. It was also the largest trade route for the city-states of Drow.

Well, after the kidnapping of the famous travel writer Varotamp, the famous Spider Queen Sanctuary Mosoblay was thrown into chaos, and it can be said that it suffered a typhoon, an earthquake, and a fire. With this kind of diplomacy that offends the Spider God Queen to death, the Coral Cup Terrace will definitely not have any positive trade with the underground Drow City.

It's just that you can't do business, and you can still do other things. Shimmer Sea, the most important trade route to maintain the Drow society, is now placed in front of the latest sworn enemy of the Spider God, this is a good comparison, compared to what? It's like that Bi Ma Wen entered the Pan Tao Garden, just like that little Jerry entered the cheese shop, and if he didn't make a big vote, he was simply sorry for himself.

It's just that the Wooden Shoes Brothers Cooperative has a limited number of people, counting the pair of Zall brothers who Angola Newman slipped back from Mosoblay City, and a bunch of disabled people who were sheltered, it is impossible for people to make trouble, and they can't go back to rely on the appearance of Yuan Taiyijun, right?

Thinking of this, "Master Idrir" turned his head and glanced at the "jewelry box": "In addition to the captured ships and goods, how did the rescued slaves arrange?"

Speaking of this question, the "jewelry box" clearly stumbled: "This...... Of course, it is to arrange for them to have a physical examination, to treat them, and to bring in a professional to relieve the psychological trauma......"

The "professionals" who "heal the psychological wounds" are, of course, the priests of the local temple, especially the priests who follow the god of weeping and suffering, Ilmat, and the silver lady Suren, who are almost all devoted to charity. The temples of many good gods, such as Tyr, Heim, and Ransendel, also attached great importance to this social matter, especially the temple of Heim, which was even more concerned about adopting orphans to train as warriors than the followers of Tyre, the god of justice.

Well, speaking of which, the Coral Cup Mesa also has a very active shrine at the moment......

The Temple of the Wandering Court of the Dark Maiden Elise is officiated by the Mother of Mysteries and the Dark Maiden's double Electo, Aoi Lu.

Xia Yuan Taiyijun sighed slightly: "Don't tell me, during this time, the refugee reception work in this city is under the management of the Wandering Court. ”

Glancing at the "Jewelry Box" with his mouth open, Xia Yuan Taiyijun waved his hand: "The Temple of the Wandering Court is said to be a temple, but under the leadership of that black beauty, it looks like a monastery living in isolation. Of course, the temple must be built in the center of the residential area in order to be effective. Practitioners are far away from the hustle and bustle of monasteries, monasteries, monasteries, and monasteries, and it is simply putting the cart before the horse. Tell me, how did that beautiful chief priest arrange for these people who have just escaped?"

"The chief priests himself healed their wounds, removed curses and diseases for them, prayed to the goddesses for them, arranged for them to drink a little milk porridge, took a hot bath, and then waited for them to recuperate, and asked them what they planned for the future......"

"That's enough!" interrupting the report of the jewelry box, Xia Yuan Taiyijun gently pushed the monocle and added: "If you are willing to stay in the Temple of the Wandering Garden, you will stay and live, and if you want to return to your hometown, will you help others pay for the travel expenses?"

The "jewelry box" silently opened its mouth, indicating "what you said is right".

From the perspective of charity and public welfare, this way of dealing with the Temple of the Walking Court cannot be said to be wrong, and even strives to achieve a good beginning and a good end to a certain extent. However, judging from the actual results of the establishment of the Temple of the Wandering Court for so many years, the good deeds have been done by young and old, and those Drow warriors who have been conquered by Aoiro's personal charm have attacked the slave caravans and rescued the slaves more than once, but apart from the same people who have also been reduced to slavery and homeless, there are always very few other races that have joined the Temple of the Wandering Garden.

Giving with all your might, without expecting anything in return, is a very precious virtue, but too high a virtue in turn fosters moral inertia in others. Profit-seeking and selfishness are problems that everyone has, and it would be too unrealistic to "fight fiercely and privately in a flash" and "600 million Shenzhou will do all their best".

If you change to the guardian god Haim, charity work will not have such a warm vein, only the cold and hard rule of "I saved you from the slave traders, helped you heal, and took care of your food, then you must contribute your strength to my lord Haim".

Well, so the temples of Heim across the continent are known for their huge temple armaments, and there are many temple guards who can be used as expatriate mercenaries, and the Temple of the Wandering Court of the Dark Maiden's Chief Elector has less than a hundred permanent staff.

If the Dark Maiden were a pacifist deity such as Dinel, the King of Words, Miliel, the King of Songs, and Lilla, the Goddess of Joy, who didn't need to fight the forces of evil head-on. However, Elisetsu has been opposing her biological mother, the spider god, and "overthrowing the tyranny of the spider queen and bringing the drow elves back to sunshine and peace" is the path of the goddess of sorrow.

"Seriously, this kind of 'a girl's delicate shoulders bear the fate of the world' can be seen in the opera house and in the album. After eating and drinking, taking out a handkerchief to wipe a few tears is also a good way for wealthy citizens to pass the daily life. Stepping on the cable post of the dock, Xia Yuan Taiyi commented with a smile: "But a goddess with a sword, facing a cruel and treacherous opponent, still has superfluous compassion and free and uninhibited feelings, which is very fatal." Having fought head-to-head with the deranged she-spider, I'm sure sure, if it weren't for the Elven Father, Corellon, and the Mystery's Mother, Mistra behind her, the she-spider would have eaten the venerable Moonlight Dancer in her stomach. ”

For his boss talking so uninhibitedly about several high-ranking gods, the "jewelry box" was silent for a while.

Or rather, the only thing left of the jewel-loving skull's head was the sound of the upper and lower jaws fighting: "Definite...... Very...... Honoured...... See, see, see......"

After "seeing" for a long time, the "jewelry box" did not "see" out of a clear organization after all. Xia Yuan Taiyijun waved his hand impatiently, and the capable port clerk immediately closed his mouth and hurriedly teleported away.

With the departure of the "jewelry box", Xia Yuan Taiyijun still did not look back, but with a slight wave of his hand, the almost crystal clear water waves next to the pier rose, turning into a gentle mist, and in a blink of an eye, he knitted a knee-length dress and floated behind him:

"Although this new pier is not officially operational, it is not a beach, and it would be rude for a beautiful woman to sunbathe in such a humble place. ”

Behind him, shrouded in mist, the moonlight flowed for no reason, turning into abundant silver hair that almost fell to the ground.

A slender and muscular woman looked at the Master Idril with some curiosity, gently caressing the misty dress on her body.

After making sure that the beautiful visitor behind him hadn't taken off his mist coat, Shimoto Taiyijun turned around slightly and nodded slightly: "Welcome to the newborn Coral Cup Terrace, a girl with beautiful long hair like moonlight." ”

On one side is the face of "Master Idrir" with obvious half-elf features, and on the other side is the beautiful and amiable face of the Drow woman.

In general perception, this is a bloody hatred between the inhabitants of the surface and the inhabitants of the underground, which has lasted for thousands of years. But in elven society, this is also the face of two marginal races.

It's just that everything is on the surface, not necessarily the truth.

Indeed, the enmity between the surface elves and the drow elves is as deep as the sea, and just by looking at the difficult development of the Temple of the Wandering Court, you know that the drow elves who came to the surface world did not get much except freedom. Except for the freed slaves, none of the Drow elites were willing to give up the power they had already gained and come to the surface world to follow the goddess who danced in the moonlight.

But the half-elf face of a certain fake psionic master ......

It was a pure accident.

It can be turned into a beautiful accident though.

"What do you call you, beautiful guest, the Dancer of the Sword of the Dark Woodlands, or the Singing Daughter of the Moonlight?"

To this question, the long-haired and ankle-hanging Zhuoer girl also smiled and replied with the same sentence:

"What do you call you, hospitable host, the destroyer of the leylines of the Coral Cup Mesaga, or the High King who has the courage to lend a helping hand to those who have misfortune?"

The Supreme Monarch.

Xia Yuan Tai Yi Jun, who was so officially called by an elf goddess, had a little clear light flickering in the center of his eyebrows, and then dispersed into seven stars, flying between the head and face of Xia Yuan Tai Yi Jun, faintly echoing with the seven orifices.

Taking a light breath, Xia Yuan Taiyijun tied the seven-point star light behind his head before replying, "Call me Idrir, this is the name by which I walk on the earth." ”

With that, he took the visitor's hand and placed a kiss on the back of his hand, which was as soft as black jade: "Welcome, Goddess Elisetsu. ”

After the kiss ceremony, Xia Yuan Taiyijun took a serious look at the beautiful but slightly sad face of the goddess: "I hope you didn't descend on the head priest of Aoiro, who has found a very good young man. ”

"Aoi Lu is the daughter of me and Mystra, Master Idriel, a mother who has nothing but pure love for her daughter. I wish her and Elicante that their love is free from the poison of selfishness, and is worth learning from every drow. ”

"Sounds great, but I've been to Morsoblay and know what the Drow city-state of the Dark Lands is. Xia Yuan Taiyijun shook his head and stretched out his hand to pull up the goddess's long silver-white hair.

For the goddess's devotees, this gesture looked frivolous, but Elistra just let the rude man play with her long moonlit hair.

"I don't know much about you," said Shimoto Taiyikun, caressing the goddess's silver hair, "You and your mother occupy both ends of the scale of good and evil. The drow elves are selfish, hateful, cruel, impulsive to kill, sadistic pleasure, and conspiracy for betrayal. Drow Spirit's freedom, love, friendship, fighting for peace, courage for resistance, mercy for forgiveness, you are you. ”

Elise's emerald blue pupils flashed with a moonstone-like light, and she admitted Shimoto Taiichi-kun's statement: "And in this war, my mother has always taken the initiative. ”

"So you came to ask for my help. Shimoto Taiichi-kun replied, "Mystra, the Mother of Mysteries, is the master of the magic web, and she is the root of all magic in this world, and all magicians, good and evil, receive help from her without discrimination. So the Mother of Mysteries who is strictly neutral may care about the balance between good and evil and make sure that the world is not controlled by evil, but she will not help you win this war. ”

Similarly, the Elven Father, Corellon, was willing to help his daughter fight against her ex-wife, but the gods of Sidrion would never allow you to set foot in the land of Afando. Nicknamed the lone wolf, the wanderer god Fermaro Mosdelin, although he did not want to set foot in Afando, your half-brothers and sisters still built a palace for him, leaving him a throne. ”

How elegant the words are, but they still play the level of someone who is good at talking to death, Miss Elistri, your best friend Mystra always wants to be an outsider, and your father, Ke Ruilon, can only secretly help you, the daughter born to your ex-wife, and your half-brothers and sisters basically use you as air.

This has to be changed to a short-tempered one, and it's strange not to turn his face with Xia Yuan Taiyijun.

However, the negotiation between the gods and spirits is far more direct than ordinary people, everyone is the embodiment of the laws of the world, if they are together, they will come, if they are not, whether they can be together, whether the camps are similar, this is the way to work together for a long time. As for the mood swings that float above the spirit, they are just colors for appreciation, and most gods don't take it seriously.

"So I've come to ask for your help. ”

"In a short period of time, I really can't help you break into the deep pit demon net and drag Ling Tang off the throne and chop it into minced meat. Spreading his hands, Xia Yuan Taiyijun said in a very sincere tone.

Elise Cui smiled and shook her head, letting her long smooth hair break away from Xia Yuan Taiyijun's fingertips: "You hate tyranny, oppose slavery, and have mercy on the weak. I believe that your sword will be able to help those less fortunate regain their freedom and light. ”

Gently holding the monocle, Xia Yuan Taiyijun also smiled and shook his head: "That being said, the sword-wielding person who follows Elisturd is afraid that he won't be able to use my sword." ”

"I will send down an oracle that the sword-wielding daughters may call on your name in battle. ”

"Don't don't, I'm not the supreme god of Sidrien, and Elistra is not the god of Idrir, everyone has no name and no points, so it's not appropriate. But I can include an opening gift, and every good creature who has fallen into the clutches of evil, when he earnestly calls on the 'High King for Relief of Misfortune', My Messenger will help them escape from their doom. ”

With these words, the seven-point star hanging behind Xia Yuan Taiyijun's head suddenly rotated, and it was glorious!

In the eyes of the visiting goddess, the seven stars revealed a unique brilliance, pure as silver, brilliant as gold, gorgeous as a gem, clear as crystal, soft as a pearl, and scorching as molten platinum, and finally converged into pure brilliance.

Although this little bit of starry light is inconspicuous compared to the real luminous celestial body, every god who has visited the Sevenfold Heavenly Mountain will not admit that it is wrong, and this faint starry has a trace of the light of the goodness of the Sevenfold Heavenly Mountain, and it looks strangely pure.

In the starlight, there are small figures appearing, and the little guy headed by him is particularly handsome, with pointed elf ears, a feather crown and a red fur, riding a fiery fat, and saluting the long-haired goddess.

"In the light of the Seven Dawns, greetings to the messenger who has reached out to the unfortunate!"

The little guy who called himself the Yuntai Messenger was like the leader of this group of little people, and behind him, the little guys in different clothes lined up one after another. Most of them are human and elven teenagers, and their costumes vary from swordsman, archer, scout, or spellcaster to mage, priest, or scholar, or ordinary people such as merchants, sailors, and poets. Each little one holds a different prop in his hand, maybe it's a bow and arrow, maybe it's a shield, maybe it's a scroll bound with Jimei, maybe it's an elegant medicine bottle, maybe it's a budding flower.

But no matter how the appearance and props changed, these little guys flashed with an aura that was extremely close to the Seven Heavenly Mountains.

"Let me introduce you, this child is Yuntai Tiantong, born in the fire of midsummer, and brought the moisture of summer rain, the fire sword in his hand can cut all shackles, help people free from the doom of being imprisoned, is a very enthusiastic little guy. ”

With the introduction of Xia Yuan Taiyijun, Yuntai Tiantong proudly puffed up his chest: "It is my duty to cut off the shackles, don't praise me for this, I will be proud!"

In the eyes of a great magician like Kelben, although a small point like Yuntai Tiantong has the breath of a god and the unique goodness of the creatures of the upper realm, for these well-informed great magicians, they have seen too many creatures of the upper realm, and they will not delve into it.

But as a goddess with a knack for fighting, Elistry was sure at first glance that this little dot was not as cute as his appearance and harmless to humans and animals.
