When a reasonable Xiucai meets an unreasonable rebel, he is still angry to the point of liver pain.

What's more, is it a reasonable dragon meets an unreasonable "mortal"?

Ulhallindoros's angry roar turned into a destructive sonic wave, and even the residents of Waterdeep could hear the old black dragon's roar: "Stupid man, you are trying to provoke death and destruction!"

With the roar, pure light immediately surged from the Black Rod Tower, with this mage tower as the center, the mage towers scattered throughout the Deep Water City echoed each other, and a demonic light visible to the naked eye rose from the walls of the main city of the Deep Water City.

"Dragon Defense Aura" to enhance the effect of dragons' magic, "Wall of Perfection" to be equivalent to a large anti-evil circle, "Dragon's Breath Evasion Aura" to target dragons' spit attacks, and "City of Steel" to strengthen fortress defense and magic resistance......

In the blink of an eye, a large amount of magic worked at the same time, enveloping the entire Waterdeep City in a magical light, and the Temple of Justice and the Temple of Guardians emitted a strong holy light, as if the God of Justice Tyr and the God of Guardians Haim were stretching out their arms from the Three Temples to protect their followers. At first glance, this famous northern city does live up to its reputation as the "City of Radiance", but only Skull Harbor has been abandoned from this glory.

This is also the unanimous opinion of the higher-ups of Waterdeep: no matter how the dragon war between dragons evolves, as long as it does not involve Waterdeep, then it will be fine.

As for whether Skull Harbor is considered a part of Waterdeep? In the minds of the big guys, the Skull Harbor area of Waterdeep does not exist.

At least after this dragon war, the current skull harbor area full of shacks, cabins, and miscellaneous illegal construction will definitely not exist.

Those who are enthusiastic about the cause of justice in Waterdeep, such as the dossier priests of the Temple of Tyre and the arcane mentors of the Tower of Order, have been criticizing the laissez-faire of the previous city lords towards the Skull Harbor District, and some have even advocated that the black marketeers and slave traders operating in the Skull Harbor be cleaned up once and for all.

This is also the reason why Marcius's skull harbor cleanup proposal was supported by many people before.

But excluding the magic teachers who are obsessed with the study life and are not grounded, even if they are legal experts like the priests of the dossier and have been buried in the "endless law" of the Temple of Tyre all their lives, how can they know the truth of the human world?

Indeed, the god of justice, Tyr, and his followers spent a long time transcribing countless legal texts from every region and plane they reached, to the point of being named after the "Endless Codex". But even a moral code may not be easy for a hundred years, but it cannot always be correct, let alone a thin letter written by a few priests and nobles, such as the law.

The people who supported the clean-up of Skull Harbor have forgotten one of the most basic things.

How many restaurants employ dishwashers from Skull Harbor in the back kitchens of the thriving streets of Waterdeep, how many workshops are full of Skull Harbor helpers, and even the newsboys who run around every day delivering milk and newspapers, all living in Skull Harbor where they want to destroy it?

Yes, Skull Harbor is a paradise for slave traders and black market traders, and Skull Harbor is the lawless underground kingdom of the Thieves' Guild, but the people of Waterdeep, who enjoy the labor dividends of the residents of Skullport, have never done much for the inhabitants of Skullport.

And at the moment when the Dragon War detonated, I don't know how many citizens of Waterdeep will take out an expensive bottle of Burrerd Black Licorice Whiskey to celebrate:

"God willing, that lawless illegal port and the scoundrels there are finally bidding farewell to our Shining City. ”

The bigwigs have abdicated their responsibilities to Skull Harbor just to show favor to an old madman with an unclear mind, and all they can do is use the power of detection magic to spy on this dragon war from afar.

Whether it was the chief priests or Marco, who was acting as the city lord, they were all silent at this time.

In this world, there have been several eras, and the protagonist of each era is different. Although the human race has the greatest advantage in the current history, this advantage is entirely due to the fact that the Elven Court took the initiative to leave the mainland and move the center of gravity of its rule to Yongju Island.

Before the Elven Father Corellon visited this world, a large number of scaly magical creatures, led by dragons, were the undisputed rulers of the sky, earth, and sea.

Even now, no powerful magician dares to publicly declare that he can fight an old and powerful dragon unscathed.

On the contrary, even those who were blessed by the goddess of magic, Mystra, and the god of mages, Azus, many of the recognized strongest of the magicians died at the hands of the dragons.

But why did the man reflected in the crystal ball face the angry black dragon so calmly?

Fingers twirling the pattern on the Great Sage's staff, Marco Hubbell finally did not change the straightforward personality he had cultivated during his adventure career, and directly voiced his doubts: "The fact that Idriel Raymond Getton, a half-elf who runs a private clinic in Skull Harbor, has become a master of psychic abilities and is trying to challenge a black dragon for the sake of the inhabitants of Skull Harbor? ”

"Detecting magic does not deceive people, the operation of magic depends on the magic web, but the operation of psionic energy comes from within the spirit. Whether it's magic or magic, it depends on the operation of the magic web, but only the psykers rely on their own psychic power to erode reality. By all indications, the spells that targeted the black dragon and saved civilians were psykeric abilities. ”

The man who answered Marco was the chief priest of the Temple of Justice. The thin-haired, lame officiant is also a retired paladin, and many people feel that this lame judge of justice is unexpectedly paired with his god who is blind in one eye and has a broken hand, fully proving that the righteous forces in this world are "blind because of blindness, powerless because of broken hands, and habitually late because of lameness".

Marco wasn't such a boring person, he just looked around at the big names involved in the remote meeting and asked a more pressing question: "An unknown psionic master, but able to protect the inhabitants of Skull Harbor for the sake of justice in their hearts, then we should also take more measures to prevent this dragon war from expanding!"

"I'm against it!" Another tin can appeared in the crystal ball, holding up his iron glove: "As the most important defense force in this city, the Guardian Temple is the most important defense force in this city, and we solemnly oppose all attempts to expand the war!"
