All Heavens: Transfer Students at Hogwarts

Chapter 388 Elminster with thick eyebrows and big eyes

After the sun fell into the sea of ​​clouds, night enveloped the endless empty atmosphere in all directions. There are sparse lights in the towers on the top of the mountain. Those spellcasters who stay up all night reading are deaf to what is going on outside the window. The mountains and forests under the sky are extremely quiet.

The crown of the silver tree is still bright and eye-catching, like the branches of the universe inhabited by stars, but the dots of light in the skull are invisible flames, which do not provide illumination and only create a low-light environment a hundred feet around the tree.

Drinriel has no sheriff, no city guard.

Therefore, the invisible man who secretly came to the silver tree at night did not encounter any obstruction.

Elminster encouraged Andre to explore the absolute core of this floating city and discover the truth about Delinriel. Is this a paradise in the sky that is uncontested by the world, or is it a cancer in the sky that is brewing a conspiracy? -For the natives of Faerun, any big organization or big figure that suddenly appears should not be afraid to assume the worst.

If we were in the 21st century on earth, if a company suddenly rose up, people would not panic, because everyone knew that it was here to make money and have some fun. No matter how dirty the business methods were, people would Not afraid. Because it respects the rules of the game in modern society.

However, in Faerûn, or other worlds with similar extraordinary backgrounds, the appearance of an intelligence organization such as the Shadow Thieves Guild, the Harpers Alliance, or the Zhentarim will bring real turmoil - breaking the original trajectory of life and throwing people away. Entering the whirlpool of fate, you will either shine brightly or fall into pieces.

In most cases, the fate of ordinary people is cannon fodder, the flesh and blood are turned into undead creatures by liches, and the souls go to hell and become maggots.The destruction of homes, the burning of beautiful natural environments, the misfortune of relatives, friends and loved ones... The illusion called life is torn apart, and the meaning of life is tested. This kind of pain is very intense.

Andre had this kind of worry. The one who was involved in Delinriel was his only sister. He would rather die for her than to let this little bird get hurt. Therefore, he must find out the truth and confirm Livia's safety. This is a brother's responsibility.

He contacted the soldiers and priests of the Tire Church and explained that he planned to explore the silver tree tonight, and he might be able to find some useful clues.

The righteous people of the Church of Tyr are always willing to shine for good causes, and most of them are enthusiastic idealists. Andre's proposal was accepted by them, but the priest also made his own demands.

"We try not to anger the city's administrators. The decree of the remnant god is very vague, and I have a strange feeling in my heart that hostility will push us away from the truth. After all, we are weak."

Andre nodded. When he calmed down, he carefully pondered what he had seen and heard along the way, and he also had a special feeling.His good sister, Livia, has always been very smart. Of course, smart people make mistakes, just like a paladin may be tempted by the devil.It's just his Li Wei, she is ice-snow and smart, what she says is likely to be the truth, and the picture she paints can't help but make people's hearts move.

It is difficult to train a spellcaster. On the one hand, the magic education system is out of date and lacking, and on the other hand, there is a monopoly on knowledge.

Knowledge monopoly is a strict invisible barrier, and ordinary people may never have the opportunity to come into contact with real magic theories in their entire lives.

If Livia is right, Delinriel will spread knowledge to the general public, then this city is great, and this organization deserves to be recorded in history and be remembered forever.

But I am afraid that there is poison under the glamorous appearance, and the evil lurking in justice is a hundred times more terrifying than weapons with open flames.

Now Andre, the priest and the paladin, protected by Elminster's invisibility, quietly came to the lake surrounding the silver tree.

The dragon hadn't noticed them yet.

The old mage started to set up a sound-proof barrier, and an invisible cover quietly enveloped the lake. Within an hour, no sound from this area could be transmitted.

Before setting off, Elminster used [Larry's Spiritual Connection] to pull the three companions in the team into a spiritual connection. They can communicate with each other very conveniently.

"Look." Elminster said solemnly, "Do you see any difference in the reflection on the lake?"

"What's the difference?" Andre and the other three observed carefully.

The reflection of the silver tree on the lake is equally tranquil and holy. In the night environment, it is as clear as the frost marks on the dark picture.

"It seems... the color of those flames is a little different, it's gray." Andre said hesitantly, "Could it be because of the darkness?"

"No, when I saw it in the daytime, the fire in the reflection was gray. This is obviously not normal." Elminster did not pretend to be the Riddler, but directly expressed his conjecture, "I think this The lake is connected to a different space, the shadow under the silver tree, the truth about the floating city, maybe we can get the answer there, at least part of it."

The giant dragon under the tree suddenly raised its head.

"We've been discovered!"

"Let's show up..." The giant dragon spoke in a solemn and ancient tone, and the air trembled faintly.

Elminster was still thinking about countermeasures.

The figure of the sahuagin priestess squeezed out of the air and appeared not far behind them.

"It's been following us." "What is it trying to do?"

The cunning fishman saluted the dragon and said loudly: "Your Majesty the Dragon, Bomo Ganli is at your service. I am here to report these invisible people with malicious intentions."

Hama Ganli waved the shark bone staff in her hand, spraying silver illusion-breaking dust in all directions.

"Shameless!"

All the invisible people around were forced to reveal themselves. Except for Elminster and his party, even the Mermaid General and Naga Warlord were also there. Everyone looked at each other with awkward but polite smiles.

The dragon let out a thunderous laugh.

"You want to bring shame to Kruchik! I am ordered by the king to defend Delinriel, and the rats who want to get their hands on the Silver Tree are ready to welcome my Tumu?"

Its words are so strict that it makes people's hair stand on end.

Pomoganli was the first to surrender. It praised the dragon loudly, and said that it was just passing by and reporting a wave of bad guys by the enthusiastic crowd, without any covetous intentions.

"Stupid shark head!" Naga warlord yelled, and then it also surrendered, and said that it could help Your Excellency the dragon deal with these thieves.

Elminster shook his head secretly, with mixed hearts, it would be difficult to get things done, and then he shouted: "Misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding! We are not hostile, Your Excellency Krutchick. In fact, the old man did not come to find the tree. Instead I came here to see you."

The three companions standing next to him, who were ready to fight hard, widened their eyes.

You old boy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, why did you rebel?
