"I just got some new clues about the plague in Neverwinter."
Lord Nasir broke the slightly weird atmosphere of the scene with his concise opening remarks.
Maybe he didn't know exactly what was going on, but he could feel Aribes's boiling anger and the blood-curdling hatred towards Vanswijk.
In addition, Dumbledore's ambiguous attitude is obviously problematic.
In short, there is only one word - chaos.
But at the moment, the supreme ruler of Neverwinter is obviously not in the mood to pay attention to these messy emotional issues, and instead focuses all his attention on Deszel and his subordinates, the Church of Helm.
Although these guys still wear the holy emblem of the God of Guard, with the magic equipment he wears, he can see the black and red aura of the evil camp on each other's body.
You must know that as a lawful neutral god, although Heim can accept believers from the three camps of lawful evil, lawful neutral and lawful good at the same time, the church members in Neverwinter have always only accepted the latter two.
.
Deszell, in particular, gives the impression that the god of guardianship advocates rigor, discipline, ruthlessness, ruthlessness, and absolute loyalty and obedience to the monarch to whom he is loyal.
This is also the reason why the power of the Church of Heim in the North is so huge.
On the one hand, they are guards who are loyal to their duties and will never abandon the towns and villages they protect just because the enemy is too strong;
On the other hand, they are loyal subordinates and the most perfect executors. They will never question the orders of their superiors, even if they are asked to suppress popular uprisings and riots.
But now, it is clear that the frightening red light on Deszell's body cannot be obtained by executing one or two evil orders.
This level can only be achieved in a short period of time through massacre and destruction.
And right now, the only thing that can be considered massacre and destruction in the surrounding areas of Neverwinter is the raging magical plague.
So from the moment he saw the other party, Lord Nasir believed Aribes's accusations and believed that Deszell was the mastermind behind all this, or at least one of them.
"A clue? What kind of clue?"
Before Deszel realized that he had been exposed, he immediately put on a very concerned look and probed.
Because one of his most important roles is to keep abreast of high-level decisions, and then arrange for the cultists lurking in the city to avoid all searches, ensuring that the plague can continue to spread among the people no matter what.
Without this traitor secretly providing cover, and with Neverwinter's strict blockade policy, the plague should have ended long ago with the death of the first batch of infected people.
"Arebeth, you can start to reveal the truth."
Lord Nasir turned his attention directly to his deputy.
After all, Neverwinter is a city-state dominated by Tyr, the god of justice, so both trial and conviction require evidence.
Even if he has determined that Deszell is the murderer of hundreds of civilians.
Aribes took a step forward unceremoniously and said very simply: "Stop your pretense.
Magrim is now a prisoner of His Majesty Emperor Soth of the West Coast Empire.
Everything, including the plague and the awakening of the Creator Race, is no longer a secret.
It is you who have been secretly shielding those cultists, allowing them to evade search after search and continue to spread the plague in the city of Neverwinter.
And I also know that your lair is in the cursed maze deep in the necropolis."
"What? Magorim was captured? That's impossible!"
Deszell's expression suddenly changed.
Because the name itself means a lot of things, and it is definitely not something that can be guessed blindly.
And among the entire cult, only Magrim has personally seen the queen of the creator race, Mosala, and knows the entire plan.
Once he's caught, no one knows what to do next.
"snort!
idiot!
Do you think you are hiding in the dark and no one knows?
Don't be naive!
Whether it's you or Magrim, the empire's ubiquitous spies have actually discovered it a long time ago.
It's just that they didn't take action immediately, but wanted to see what other forces were involved behind you.
If you don't believe it, you can ask Mr. Dumbledore. He has known your identity for a long time, but he has remained silent for the time being because he has no evidence."
After saying that, a mocking expression appeared on Aribes's face, she drew her sword and moved two steps to the side, completely blocking the only entrance and exit behind her.
She is obviously enjoying this feeling of being in control of everything, and is not in a hurry to make the other party pay, but to make the final use of waste.
Because after completing the move, only one Vanswijk and one guard were left between Deszell and Lord Nasir.
If the former suddenly breaks out, there is a very high probability that the latter can be hijacked or even killed.
"You knew my identity from the beginning?!"
Deszel turned his head and stared at Dumbledore who was standing not far away, trying to confirm whether Irebeth was threatening him.
Dumbledore nodded very simply: "Yes, I knew from the beginning that you were the mastermind behind spreading the plague, so I was able to successfully catch the cultists who had met you again and again. In fact, for your
Soth knew the plan very clearly a long time ago."
"If that's the case, why didn't you stop it from the beginning?" Deszel asked with a ferocious expression.
Now he had no chance at all, and he also knew that the best outcome for him would be to be caught and hanged, and he was mentally prepared to fight to the death.
"It's very simple.
Soth felt that it was always a hidden danger to hide the creator race that had withdrawn from the stage of history tens of thousands of years ago.
He hoped to take this opportunity to uproot all these guys.
Moreover, many members of the Arcane Society are also very interested in the legendary creator race, and plan to capture them all and take them back for further study.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! So whether it is you or the creator race you worship, in the eyes of those who truly have power, it is just a trivial little trouble, and it is not worth it at all.
Too much time and energy wasted.
Especially Queen Mosala, she is just a guinea pig about to be put on the dissecting table."
When he said these words, the expression on Dumbledore's face suddenly became extremely strange and cold, which made people feel frightened.
After all, in the process of learning magic, especially necromancy, he had witnessed countless cruel and evil experiments that even black magic could not match.
I have also personally dissected living goblins, orcs, ogres, trolls, kobolds, jackals and other creatures, and transformed them into undead forms such as skeletons, zombies, and ghouls through negative energy.
Both thinking and cognition have undergone earth-shaking changes.
This is also the reason why there are basically no good camp necromancers.
It is quite rare to be able to barely remain neutral after studying necromancy magic for a long time. Most of them are from the evil camp.
Because the process of learning necromancy magic is extremely anti-human and anti-life. Once you step into it, there is no turning back.
Although at the beginning, Dumbledore was instinctively wary and disgusted with this faction.
But when he realized that the essence of necromancy was to explore the mysteries between life and death, he decisively put aside his previous kindness and moral sense and devoted himself wholeheartedly to it.
After all, this is a forbidden area that wizards on earth have never touched.
"So in your eyes, I'm like a clown trying his best to perform a comedy?"
Deszell's eyes quickly became bloodshot without knowing when, and his ferocious expression looked extremely angry.
Dumbledore smiled and asked: "What else?
To be honest, I really can't understand why you, as a human being, would worship a race of creators who lived tens of thousands of years ago.
Don't you know that when they established civilization and launched external expansion, all other intelligent races were enslaved?
If these guys successfully restore and rule the North, you will be nothing more than higher-level slaves at best.
It’s really funny that a decent and dignified person should become a slave.”
It has to be said that these words instantly caused a huge blow to Deszell, causing him to retort angrily: "What do you know!
When the great creator race ruled the world, there was no god able to interfere in the world without restraint, and the will of mortals decided everything.
They can change the climate, environment and terrain unscrupulously without worrying about interference from the gods.
But now?
