Chapter 246: Waterdeep City’s Attitude(2/4)

"No problem, please wait."

Zuo Si quickly put his hand into his satchel and took out one from the box specially used to hold iron balls, letting it float quietly in mid-air.

As a chosen one of the goddess of magic, Kyle could easily see the arcane light flashing on the iron ball through his own eyes. After a short observation, he immediately exclaimed: "It's incredible. This is what you brought from another world."

The magic that came back? It only used such a small amount of magic power to make such a heavy iron ball float in the air and even fly at high speed."

"Funny, right?

The most important thing is that the spell can last for a long time after being cast once, and it is very, very cheap.

Maybe it won't be of much use in a battle with high-level mages, and a wall of force can easily intercept it.

But it's perfect for dealing with ordinary armies and warriors who don't understand magic.

Even a legendary warrior cannot survive a head-on attack without getting hurt."

Zuo Si introduced the advantages of these "holy balls of physics" without any reservation.

Because this thing is not originally used to deal with spell casters, it doesn't matter even if the other party knows about it.

If someone tries to control these iron balls through magic or magic, he will immediately release a confusion spell to make the iron balls fall into a frantic and uncontrollable state, and hit them indiscriminately without distinguishing between friend and foe.

Kelben nodded in agreement and commented: "This kind of magic weapon is indeed very suitable for dealing with a large number of enemies and monsters that do not understand magic. And I also noticed that you gave them constant shrinkage and

With repair spells, no matter how much deformation occurs after the violent impact of these iron balls, they can be quickly restored to their original state in a short period of time."

"Yes. The shrinking spell can make the iron ball more convenient to carry, and it can also enlarge and shrink instantly to make it difficult for the enemy to defend. As for the repair spell, it is to prevent those spikes and blades from deforming and breaking when they hit hard rocks.

.With such weapons, those savage, cruel, and bloodthirsty orcs will no longer be able to threaten the civilized world."

When saying these words, Zuo Si did not hide his disgust for the orc race.

Because these green-skinned monsters, who only know how to destroy and plunder, but never produce or create, have no meaning or value in his eyes.

Kelben was keenly aware of this and immediately reminded: "I agree with your view on the orcs, but if you want to massacre the orcs, it is better to be a little more cautious.

Because the orc gods are not weak.

In fact, this wanton massacre of the orc army has made the leaders of many large orc tribes in the North extremely angry.

Not only did they send the most powerful warriors and hunters to kill you, but they also teamed up to offer a huge bounty.

Now there are many bounty hunters and speculators who are eyeing you, ready to trade your head for the bounty."

"Oh? It sounds very interesting. Can you tell me which orc tribes are offering bounties to me? It would be better if there is a specific scope of their activities."

The corners of Zuo Si's mouth turned up slightly, revealing a chilling smile.

For those enemies who want his own life, he always has only one way to respond, and that is to kill them all without mercy.

"Regarding this, I think those bounty hunters and orc warriors, the hunters should come to you soon with answers." Kelben said with a hint of joking in his tone.

After all, it is no secret among the voters of the Magic Goddess that Zuo Si has a strong desire for revenge.

What's more, reducing the number of orcs in the North is completely in line with the interests of a series of important towns in the North, including Waterdeep City, Silvermoon City, Neverwinter City, Chang'an Town, etc.

Every once in a while, the Alliance of Lords will come forward to hire adventurers or form a coalition to wipe out the surging number of orcs around them. Even the churches of many gods will join in.

This is also the reason why the orcs clearly have a very powerful divine system behind them, but they are always marginalized and unpopular on the continent of Faerûn.

Because in this world, the most powerful human gods suppress the gods that the orcs believe in, so the orcs can only survive in forests and wilderness with harsh environments.

If any orc god dares to incarnate and try to change the existing situation, then what awaits him will be a group fight from medium to powerful gods.

Whether it is Tyr, the god of justice, Mystra, the goddess of magic, Ilmat, the god of suffering, Thom, the body of loyalty and courage, Lathander, the lord of the morning, or gods who tend to be good, or Ogma, the god of knowledge,

Neutral gods such as Helm, the God of Guard, and Tempus, the God of War, will send down their fighting avatars every minute to smash the heads of the orc gods.

Because what the orcs do seriously conflicts with the teachings and ideas of these gods.

Especially the orc pantheon also has its own god of war.

If they rise and threaten human dominance, Tempus' influence will inevitably decrease.

Therefore, every time they encounter a large-scale invasion by orcs, Tempus and his church and believers will definitely actively participate.

Not to mention that the elven gods also have deep grudges with the orc gods.

Among them, the eyes of the orc god Gruumsh were blinded by the elf god Corellon during the battle.

When elves and orcs meet in the wild, there is a 90% chance that they will fight to the death without even saying a word of nonsense.

It is precisely because the orcs and the pantheon behind them have so many enemies that Zuo Si dares to slaughter them so unscrupulously without much fear of retaliation.

As long as the incarnation of the god does not come, even if the chosen one of the orc god Gruumsh comes, he is absolutely confident that he can kill the opponent.

In this way, Zuo Si briefly chatted with Kelben about the situation in the North and those evil monsters that could not be killed no matter how hard they tried. Then he suddenly changed the subject and asked in a slightly playful tone: "As a man from Waterdeep City,

One of the Lords, what do you think of Luskan and the Arcane Brotherhood?"

"Luskan and the Arcane Brotherhood?"

Kelben was stunned for a moment, but soon realized something. He touched the beard on his chin and asked, "You don't want to attack them, do you?"

"If, please note that I said if, a force defeated the pirates of Luskan in a naval battle, and then attacked the city and occupied it, would Waterdeep intervene?"

Zuo Si chose the bright card without any disguise.

Among the many city-states in the North, Waterdeep is undoubtedly the most powerful.

Therefore, he needs to understand Waterdeep City's attitude towards this matter first, and then he can decide how far the war will go.

As a chosen one of the Goddess of Magic who is only slightly younger than Elminster, Kelben cooperates very closely with the Harper Alliance and knows that the recently emerged Nelanthel Islands are the work of this young man in front of him.

At the beginning, some Harper executives were still worried that the pirates would become more serious after being integrated and become a nightmare for all merchant ships on the entire west coast.

But later it was discovered that under the control of Zuo Si, instead of continuing to plunder merchant ships, the pirates of the Nelanser Islands quickly established a stable governance structure.

And in the chaotic sea where the jungle was originally dominated by the weak, an unprecedented order was established.

As long as they pay a certain share of protection fees, merchants can do business with peace of mind without worrying about being robbed.

Even the pirates from Luskan and the Whalebone Islands in the north wanted to come here to make a fortune, but they were beaten back mercilessly.

All pirates, captains and backbones who surrender and are captured are often executed in public, while ordinary pirates are thrown into quarries, mines and other places to perform hard labor.

Gradually, most Harpers dropped their initial vigilance towards this new force and only established a base to collect intelligence in major port cities.

Although the large-scale use of undead as labor has triggered some heated debates, overall Kelben is quite satisfied with Zuo Si's actions.

Because he thinks order is more important than justice and kindness.

Only by maintaining the most basic order can life and property be protected, and ordinary people can work with ease and support themselves and their families.

What's more, the lives of the civilians on the Nelanser Islands are not bad, and they have not suffered too serious exploitation and oppression.

After all, the most dangerous and arduous tasks are taken care of by the undead and hard laborers who have committed serious crimes.

As for those churches that are extremely averse to the undead...

Since they don't have much to do with the red-robed wizards in Ser, they naturally can't do anything against the Nelanser Islands.

Realizing that Zuo Si might want to take action against Luskan and the Arcane Brotherhood, Kelben's first thought was that Luskan's army had captured Lotham Island not long ago.

However, due to the pressure from the Northern Lords Alliance, they finally had to spit out the meat on their lips.

There is no other way. Maybe using the power of Luskan and the Arcane Brotherhood to bully Lotham Island and Neverwinter is not a big problem.

But when facing city-states like Waterdeep City and Silvermoon City that have a large number of high-level mages and even legendary mages, as well as voters, they basically have no choice but to bow their heads and give in.

Therefore, Waterdeep is far different from Neverwinter, and I hope someone will quickly eradicate Luskan, this evil neighbor.

Kelben lowered his head and thought for a few minutes before saying: "I personally wouldn't mind if Luskan changed to another ruler.

But the problem is, not all the lords in Waterdeep City agree with me.

So I can't give you any guarantee, I can only say that the chance of Waterdeep intervening is not very high.

Compared to this, you should be more worried about the Zhentarim, who work closely with the Arcane Brotherhood."

"Will the Zhentarim cooperate with the Arcane Brotherhood?"

This news made Zuo Si frown subconsciously.

Although this huge dark intelligence network is currently in a state of fragmentation, with Cyric's followers and Bane's followers busy fighting for dominance, its strength still cannot be underestimated.

In particular, the mage leader Manzon and the church leader and elector Fuzoul Chambery are difficult to deal with.

"Yes. As far as I know, they have shared information with each other for a long time. In addition, they also have some business dealings with the red-robed wizard."

Kelben told everything he knew about Luskan in one breath.

After all, both of them are now chosen by the goddess of magic, and the target of their attack is evil, so it is only normal to provide some intelligence help.

"I didn't expect that the water of the Arcane Brotherhood is quite deep. But it doesn't matter. As long as it is the Zhentarim or the red-robed wizards who dare to interfere, I will make them regret their rashness."

Obviously, Zuo Si did not take these two famous evil organizations in Faerun to heart.

Because the North has never been the traditional sphere of influence of red-robed wizards, their influence here is very small, and they have no courage to cause trouble under the noses of the several voters of the Magic Goddess.
