Idle game leads to another world
Chapter 565: Strike first to gain the upper hand
Drow society is obviously a deformed society. Everything revolves around the Spider Goddess.
The goddess does not accept men as priests, so drow women are the only ones respected. The goddess believes that all races except drow are inferior creatures, so drow reject all non-drow creatures.
The goddess said that conspiracy and assassination are the best means to get to the top, so there are countless assassinations within the drow. Even daughters must be careful. Once you are old and weak, there will be more ambitious drow to replace you.
It seems that the drow always maintain the strongest state, but in fact, what they do is equivalent to falling into serious internal friction, and a large number of drow die.
This is why Eilistraee is obviously Rose's daughter, but she is committed to letting the drow escape the poison of the Spider Goddess and does not hesitate to go against her mother.
But Rose's control over the drow has reached a terrifying level. They even think that Eilistraee is the one with a mental illness.
The drow are so dependent on Rose that they cannot live without her. Let’s put it this way. The way the drow keep time is different from that of ordinary people.
Others say it’s a few minutes, but they will say Rose killed someone, and then say a few minutes.
Rose has twelve enemies (all gods), and the drow divide the twenty-four hours equally among these twelve enemies, which is roughly similar to the time in the Celestial Empire, but the name is a little weird.
By the way, these twelve enemies include Rose’s original husband Corellon and her biological daughter Eilistraee.
No matter who evaluates it, they will clearly realize that the Spider Goddess is a crazy woman, vicious and insidious. But this crazy woman is actually a powerful god.
Because the Spider Goddess does not accept male priests, the highest position that male drow can reach is the chief wizard of a family.
"My Lord, my location has responded."
A male drow dressed as a wizard walked out of the shadows next to him and handed a piece of parchment respectfully to the female drow priest on the chair.
The status of wizards is relatively high, which is the same everywhere in the multiverse world.
Even for drow where priests are supreme, mages are indeed higher than warriors who call themselves two-legged animals among adventurers, and they have not been whipped at all.
It is said that there are cities built by male drow wizards, where priests are placed in a secondary position and even laugh at Rose's belief.
But Rose did not get angry about this, and even ignored this heretical drow city. Perhaps for Rose, this kind of heresy is also a manifestation of her doctrine.
The priest on the chair looked at the parchment, and her long face finally relaxed a little.
This is not a true expression. Every expression of the drow is carefully calculated, even now.
The priests who were whipping the men stopped and understood the boss's hint.
"You are lucky. Now, go and throw the captives into the spider's nest, then go and rest. We will set off early tomorrow morning."
Not being beaten was good news. The male drow stood in a row, bowed their heads and bowed to thank the female priests. Even if bending over would cause the wound on their backs to move, they must not show it.
——It looked a bit perverted.
Then the male drow lined up in a neat queue and walked to the other side, and soon disappeared into the darkness.
When the male drow disappeared, the female priests dispersed and found a place to sit nearby, holding Rose's holy emblem in their hands, as if praying.
But judging from their appearance, it must not be smooth.
Seeing this, there was no need to continue watching.
Orde nodded to Zora and Nimia, and the three of them left the place gently.
This room is a structure similar to a factory workshop. Aoerdai and the others are advancing on the second floor. They don't need to go down at all. They are far away from the drow and should not be discovered.
As long as they can bypass these drow and return to the passage of the dwarven ruins, they will find the entrance to the fourth floor in a short time. There is still a lot of depth below, and there is no time to waste time with the drow.
If it is any other organization, or simply adventurers, Aoerdai and the others can cooperate as long as they explain the situation.
But creatures like drow are simply synonymous with untrustworthiness. It is better to seek the skin of a tiger than to cooperate with them. So even if they know that the drow's goal is not the Demon King's Ring, it is better not to be discovered and go around.
The three of them went along the edge to the other end of the whole room. There was a staircase connecting to the first floor. After going down and passing through a doorway, they should be able to leave the temporary base of the drow.
The duration of the invisibility ball is still long, which is enough for the three of them to go around.
But just as they stepped onto the stairs, a drow suddenly ran in from the doorway:
"Report! The group of mercenaries are approaching!"
Just when they needed to be cautious, someone suddenly jumped out and shouted, which made everyone tremble.
This shout frightened the whole Aoerdai, and her feet shook and she almost fell off the stairs. Zora and Nimia quickly supported her.
Hearing that the group of mercenaries were coming, the drow priests stood up one after another, but at the same time, they all set their eyes on the stairs connecting to the second floor.
Just now, Aoerdai almost fell down, and her feet knocked against the stairs and made a slight sound, which was sensed by the drow priests.
In the entire Duoyuan universe, the most secure treasury is not the treasury of a king, but the treasury of the church.
It is because the priests in the church are so damn sensitive that they will be discovered at the slightest movement.
The priests put their hands on the snake whip and approached the stairs step by step. The male drow who had just reported the news also drew the long sword at his waist and stood guard at the stairs.
This grandson just blocked the way forward for Aoerdai and the other two.
What to do?
Go back and use evasion?
No, no, if the drow priest uses the dispel magic, the evasion will be removed along with the invisibility.
Now the position has been exposed, and the drow have obviously discovered that someone is invisible nearby, which is different from the previous escape in the chaos.
Zora and Nimia looked at Aoerdai and nodded to her.
The meaning is very clear.
Damn it!
Anyway, if they go back, they will probably be broken by the priests. Instead of waiting to be caught passively, it is better to take the initiative.
When the priests were about 15 meters away from the three people, Orde stretched out her hand and clenched it, as if crushing the invisible magic ball.
Then, in the vision of the drow, three women who had never seen before emerged from the air.
"It's an inferior creature! Kill her...!"
Before the drow priestess could finish her words, Orde pointed her finger at the priest:
"Fireball!"
When in doubt, just use a big fireball. In short, just explode it first.
Fireball and magic missile can be said to be the most popular spells. The former has great power and a wide range, and the latter has built-in tracking, and it is still difficult to encounter resistance to force field damage.
Flames as big as broad beans shot out from Orde's fingertips and swooshed at the feet of the priests.
——Boom!
The terrible explosion danced in the darkness with the rising flames.
