The Heavens: Hogwarts Transfer Students

Chapter 388 Elminster with Thick Eyebrows and Big Eyes

After the sun fell into the sea of ​​clouds, night shrouded the boundless and empty atmosphere in all directions. The towers at the top of the hill were lit here and there. Those spellcasters who read by the lamp at night don't hear what's going on outside the window. The mountains and forests under the sky are extremely quiet.

The canopy of the silver tree is still bright and eye-catching, like the branches of the universe where the stars live, but the dots of intracranial light are invisible flames, which do not provide lighting, and only create a low-light environment a hundred feet around the tree.

Delinriel has no sheriff, no city guard.

Therefore, the invisible man who sneaked under the silver tree at night was not hindered in any way.

Elminster encouraged Andre to prepare to explore the absolute core area of ​​this floating city and discover the truth about Delinriel. Is this a heavenly paradise that is uncontested with the world, or a cancerous tumor in the sky that is brewing a conspiracy— ——For the natives of the Faerun continent, any big organizations and big figures that pop up suddenly should not be afraid to speculate with the worst intentions.

If it is in the 21st century of the earth, if a company suddenly rises, people will not panic, because everyone knows that it is here to make money, to have some knife entertainment, no matter how dirty the business methods are, people will will not be afraid. Because it respects the rules of the game in modern society.

However, in Faerun, or other worlds with similar extraordinary backgrounds, the appearance of an intelligence organization such as the Shadow Thieves Guild, the Harper Alliance, and the Zhentarim will bring real turmoil—breaking the original life trajectory and throwing people away. Entering the vortex of fate, one will either shine brightly or fall into a meat sauce.

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.

This is what Andre was worried about. It was his only sister who was involved in Delinriel. He would rather die for her than get hurt by this little bird. So he must find out the truth and confirm Livia's safety, which is the responsibility of a brother.

He contacted the soldiers and priests of the Church of Tire, stating that he planned to explore the silver tree tonight, and maybe he could find some useful clues.

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

"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, there is a gap and lack of magic education system, and on the other hand, it is the knowledge monopoly.

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 what Livia said is right, Delinriel will spread knowledge to the general public, then this city is great, and this organization deserves to be recorded in the annals of history, and it will be immortalized 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, under the protection of Elminster's invisibility technique, quietly came to the lake surrounded by 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 cast [Larry's Spiritual Connection], pulling the three companions in the team into the spiritual connection, and 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?" The three of Andre observed carefully.

The reflection of the silver tree in the lake is also quiet and holy, and it is as clear as the frost marks on the dark scroll in the night environment.

"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 didn't pretend to be a riddle, but directly expressed his conjecture, "I think this is The lake is connected to a different space, the shadow under the silver tree, the truth of 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 spotted!"

"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 has been following us." "What is it trying to do?"

The cunning murloc bowed to the dragon and said loudly, "Your Excellency the dragon, Pomoganli is at your service. I'm here to report these malicious invisible people."

Pomaganli waved the sharkbone staff in her hand, spraying silver illusion dust all around.

"Shameless!"

The invisible people around were forced to reveal themselves, except for Elminster and his party, even the mermaid general and the Naga warlord were there, and everyone looked at each other with embarrassed but polite smiles.

The dragon let out a thunderous laugh.

"You are trying to shame Kruchik! I am ordered by the king to defend Delinriel. Those rats who want to get involved in the Silver Tree, are you ready to face me?"

Its rhetoric is so harsh it makes the hairs 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 who were ready for a hard fight stared wide-eyed.

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