Survive the Fourth Natural Disaster

Chapter 687: The Topaz Dragon Lich Comes to Pay the Ransom

Of course, Hill would not directly attack Neverwinter.

He is from the good camp and abides by the rules very much. No one takes the initiative to provoke him. How could he make such a terrible decision?

Neverwinter City is not yet qualified to ask him to change his camp.

But the reason why Neverwinter seems important is because merchants going to Icewind Dale must hire adventurers in Neverwinter before they can pass through Luskan.

Thousands of high-level adventurers are one of the reasons why Neverwinter City is so prosperous... Otherwise, it would not be as prosperous as it is now if it relies on its skilled carpenters and craftsmen.

As for Tyr and Helm, it was because they had to fight against Bane in Luskan that they attached so much importance to the temple in Neverwinter.

If the undead clear out Luskan...

The area of ​​Luskan is the most suitable place to fight evil. When the elves used to resist the orcs, they actually established a defense line between Luskan and Neverwinter.

Only in this way can the orcs pouring out of the Spine of the World be completely sealed.

In the past, Hill had always stayed away from Luskan, not only because of Bane, but also because of Tempus, which the barbarians of Icewind Dale believed in...

Although this god of battle is absolutely neutral, which is very incomprehensible, his actions are actually very insidious...

He often secretly takes revenge on people or gods who have offended him.

The only exception is Bane...but anyone who knows what happened in the world of Faerenriel can understand.

The reason Hill is so cautious is not because he is afraid of Tempus, but because he is connected to too many gods. Even if it seems to be Hill's own will, it will make people suspect that the gods behind him want to fight with Tempus. Si is the enemy.

It's different now.

No matter which god it is, it is estimated that within ten years it will be unable to do anything other than send something into Toril.

Neverwinter has always prided itself on fending off the pirates of Luskan and the orcs of the Spine of the World for the entire continent of Faerûn. Hill can free them from this arduous task.

After all...if we really encounter an army of Orcs that can destroy Neverwinter City, Neverwinter City will be in civil strife when it cannot resist. By the time someone suppresses the riot, the Orcs will have already swept away the villages and towns in the northern continent. Empty.

The reason why no one thinks something is wrong with Neverwinter City is that all the original people in power are really dead... and the people who have been replaced are all adventurers, just like the current King of Neverwinter City.

But... Neverwinter City still has some human families that have existed for hundreds or even thousands of years.

It was only 1,000 years ago that the elves abandoned the city of Neverwinter.

Regardless of whether his thoughts were too dark, Hill decided not to test Neverwinter's endurance.

He looked to the north...this winter, the orcs without Tempus and the Red Knights to stop them would definitely go down the mountain.

The number of undead who cannot use high-level magic is not necessarily greater than that of orcs, so they will definitely be able to kill enough time.

It just so happened that the nobles in Waterdeep City had to be given time to train new gangs.

Hill felt that his arrangements for the undead were very clear.

There is enough work this year. It is estimated that after Luskan, we will be able to welcome the orcs. As for next year, it is easy to say:

Go to Waterdeep in the fall to seek justice, and go to Luskan to fight against the savage orcs in the winter.

In spring and summer, you can go to the Supreme Forest!

First, help some elves who choose to return to the Star Mountains to rebuild their homes...

According to Hill's understanding of Toril, when the elves' homes are almost completed, the Gate of Hell will probably be able to reconnect the boring six fingers.

Just in time to continue fighting demons.

The bottomless abyss can no longer send demons above legendary levels, and the upper limit of Toril's original power is not that high.

The first reaction of the legendary demon when he came in was probably to explode again.

Although Liuzhi has many subordinates, he probably won't waste any more time connecting to this door and will probably choose to cherish it.

Toril is actually a lot more troublesome now than in the past, and is very good at dying together.

But the world recovered quickly, but the demons that were destroyed by the power of the source were really dead, without even a chance for their souls to return to the abyss and be reborn.

Therefore, the other side of the abyss must be very cautious and only send some cannon fodder demons to test.

We are rookies versus rookies. One side has more numbers, while the other side will not die. It is just evenly matched.

After Hill decided on the future arrangements, he directly ordered Liszt to discuss with Lin En. He believed that his friend would understand why he would take action against Neverwinter City.

Economic warfare has always been Hill's forte, and Lynn can understand it at a glance.

Although the reaction of cutting meat with a soft knife is a little slower, it is useful as long as it is effective.

Lynn would not refuse Hill to do this. Although he has a broad mind, he has never been a saint who cannot fight back.

The people in Neverwinter must have started a quarrel directly in the city hall, and Princess Asbery must have been directly threatened.

Threatening his own princess in Lin En's territory to please Lin En?

Although it sounds like he is trying to please Lynn, who in his right mind is willing to accept a woman who is threatened?

In fact, he just didn't look down on Linn, thinking that he would endure these discomforts for the sake of power because he was attached to Hill.

Hill was very dissatisfied.

Without the blessing of the gods, some of the bard's skills can no longer be used. Lin En's physical strength has now dropped a lot.

But this does not mean that these losers who can't even take a few swords from Lin En can openly despise Lin En!

Do you really think that half-elves don't practice swordsmanship? Lin En studied under the demigod who was directly taught by Corellon since childhood!

As expected, Linn had no reaction to Hill's hidden murderous arrangements. He just redesigned the undead adventure mission according to Hill's ideas and improved it a little.

He assured Hill that when the time came, there would be no need for Hill to issue a mission to attack Luskan, so that the pirates could directly confront the undead.

Linn knew very well which gang in Waterdeep City was dedicated to selling stolen goods to the Luskan pirates, and it was too easy to get the undead to conflict with them.

No matter how strict the gangsters gave their thugs after seeing the arrival of the undead, they had become accustomed to the gangster habit of beating, smashing, robbing and bullying the poor, and they couldn't control it at all.

Gangs usually deliberately amplify the habits of these low-level gang members to do evil things. This is their method of controlling these people. Only if they are all criminals can they listen to them honestly instead of running away immediately when something happens.

In this case, different arrangements can indeed be made for Neverwinter City's response.

This method is indeed more suitable than Hill's idea. If Neverwinter City chooses to be honest, it will not appear as aggressive as Hill and Aglaia City.

But if things continue to happen in Neverwinter City...if the pirates in Luskan hadn't blocked the road to collect tolls, and the bandits who had to do part-time robberies on a daily basis, there wouldn't have been the path around Neverwinter City. Prosper and develop.

Experienced merchants will basically choose to bypass Luskan when they come out of the Icewind Valley trail.

Only newcomers who think they are capable will take the high road with arrogance.

In fact, Luskan mainly preys on these people. Unless there is not enough food, or something is very useful to Luskan, these pirates will not offend the merchants of the entire continent for that little money.

The world of Toril has always been about sweeping away the snow, otherwise pirates would not be so rampant.

It will be different when Luskan is in Hill's hands.

Linn was convinced that as long as it was built into a place similar to the town of Aglaia, one-third of Neverwinter City's financial revenue could be cut off.

This is really great... Hill feels that he should consider how to transform the place now, and who should be more suitable to manage it.

Hill, who left the matter to a capable city councilor, finally received a... dragon who paid to redeem the dragon.

It was a Topaz Dragon Lich. From his pressure, Hill could feel that it was an extremely old dragon.

There are still many topaz-colored gemstone scales on his body that belong to his species, indicating that he became a dracolich for a short time... It should be those dragons who were persuaded by the Dragon Cult to change their forms during the Dragon Madness in order not to be affected. one.

He behaved very politely, spreading his wings and slowly flying and rotating over the city of Aglaia. Hill recognized that it was the gesture of the dragon intending to come to visit.

So she sat directly on Purvi's back and flew into the sky to meet him.

"Hello. Dear Lord Aglaia." The Topaz Dragon Lich turned into a human form and landed briskly on the terrace on Purvi's back. "I am Elshara who lives north of Luskan.

It's a pity that I came to visit you in this name. I came to pay the ransom for Claudia Mata.

For the Dragon Worship Cult...she can't be locked up forever. "

"I have long admired you, Mr. Elsala." Hill replied in a friendly manner, "As long as the price is right, of course I will let her go.

But the price for offending me... is not light. "

Elsela simply piled a hill on the terrace: "The Dragon Cult is basically controlled by the Dragon Lich. We still follow our past habits. If something goes wrong, every dragon involved will come up with an answer. A treasure, otherwise, as long as one dragon does not contribute money, it will become a situation where no one can contribute.

Therefore, the dragon's alliance either has no money or a lot of money. "

Hill knew very well why this gem dragon came... Although he had no choice but to turn into a dracolich, in addition to avoiding the influence of dragon madness, his main purpose was to deal with the evil white dragon Queen El in the north. Via tules.

If Hill captures Luskan, he will soon face the White Dragon Queen who often comes to rob her, and Elshara is a natural ally.

The hatred between the two will never be washed away. When Hill was studying the dragons in the North, he saw the results of dozens of battles between the two, with both sides suffering heavy losses.

However, to the cold-blooded Bai Long, it doesn't matter how many descendants or subordinates die, but to the more emotional Huang Yulong, almost every loss is a heavy blow.

That's why Elsala finally risked becoming a madman and accepted the temptation of the Dragon Worship Cult during the period of dragon madness.
