"Of course I know you are not here to cause trouble, otherwise you would have already started it when we were in the tavern. Tell me, you can just follow me. What do you want to know?"

You know without asking that Ulrika recognized these two mortals who had gradually begun to enter the sight of the gods from the moment she walked into the tavern.

Among them, the dark elf ranger has also received the attention of several gods including the forest goddess Mielikki, the dark girl Eilistraee and the spider goddess Rose, and is very likely to become a elect in the future.

"I want to know what's going on between you and those devils and half-devils hiding among the crowd?" Drizzt directly asked the question he was most concerned about.

Ulrika sneered and responded: "You asked a stupid question, elf.

The grudges between demons and demons have long since evolved into a strong hatred for each other as the bloody battle continued.

Therefore, demons do not need any reason to kill demons, just because they are demons is enough.

What's more, this matter involves a battle between gods and hell lords.

Are you and your friends sure you want to get involved?"

Instantly!

Drizzt seemed to understand something, and silently bowed again, then turned around and left with the dwarf beside him.

Having lived on the surface world for many years, he knows very well how fierce the battle between human gods, devils and demons is. It is not like the society of the dark elves which is almost completely controlled by Lolth.

If you don’t want to cause trouble for yourself, the best way is to stay away.

But just when he turned around and took just a few steps, he suddenly heard the voice of a succubus coming from behind.

"Wait! If you don't mind, could you please help me take care of this little guy?"

"What?"

The dark elf ranger stopped, turned around with a stunned expression, and glanced at the orc girl who was concentrating on eating kebabs.

"Her name is Corinna, and her mother is a poor woman who was kidnapped and raped by orcs.

As the goddess's chosen one, Thos, brought down the plague, the entire orc tribe in the North began to die on a large scale, and the mother and daughter regained their freedom.

It's a pity that that woman has exhausted her life after enduring many years of torture, so I can only take her to the civilized world.

But I still have a mission right now, and I may have to face some dangers, so I can’t distract myself from taking care of her."

Ulrika briefly introduced the situation.

Such a tragic life experience instantly aroused Drizzt's kind nature and compassion, and he nodded without thinking: "Of course, no problem, I can take care of her for a while, provided that she does not reject me as a dark elf.

."

"You don't want me anymore?"

Corinna immediately stopped eating and raised her head to stare into the succubus's eyes.

Ulrika responded with a smile: "No, child, I am just temporarily looking for someone to raise you for a period of time. After I deal with those little mice from hell, I will naturally bring you back. After all, you were chosen by the goddess herself.

These people will shoulder very important missions in the future."

"Mission?" Corinna's eyes revealed infinite confusion about the future.

She doesn't understand and can't understand what qualifications such a weak self has to be favored by Talona.

But Ulrika didn't explain anything, she just pushed the orc girl.

With some uneasiness and nervousness, Corinna finally walked slowly to the dark elf and looked at him with those innocent and clear eyes.

Drizzt felt as if the softest part of his heart had been stabbed hard by something. He bent down and forced out a smile to comfort him: "Don't be afraid, although I am not rich, I will definitely take good care of you."

OK."

"Can I learn from you how to wear armor and use weapons?" the girl asked in an uncertain tone.

She noticed the two scimitars hanging on the ranger's waist, and her eyes began to shine with desire.

Due to the extremely underground status of women in the orc tribe, Corinna, as a girl, had no chance to come into contact with these things. Those were privileges that only men deserved. She could only look at the boy with envy as he became an adult warrior.

They scuffled with each other while waving wooden spears, sticks and other weapons while yelling at each other.

With the death of her mother, the feeling of being dependent on others made her more desperate than ever to gain power.

Because only by gaining strength can you fulfill your mother's last wish before she died, truly control your own destiny, and serve the goddess you believe in - Talona.

"Of course, as long as you like it. But warrior training is not an easy job. You must be prepared to endure hardship." Drizzt couldn't help but reveal a faint smile.

Since the dark elf is a matriarchal society, he has not developed the bad habit of discriminating against women in the male-dominated society on the surface, believing that women are not as powerful as men, so they cannot become good warriors.

"I'm not afraid of hardship! And I'm not afraid of getting hurt!" Corinna vowed.

In this way, Drizzt and his friend Bruno quickly turned around and left with the Orc girl.

If nothing else happens, they will return to the relatively safe Mithril Hall and live there for a while.

When the backs of the three disappeared at the corner of the street, the Shadow King Yelnia emerged from the shadows and said sarcastically in a slightly playful tone: "Use the dark elf Drizzt to help train a powerful warrior who believes in Talona?

You are really good at calculating."

"Don't be so mean. Corina is the right-hand woman specially marked by the goddess for her chosen one. In the future, she will be given powerful abilities to protect the children of the plague at all times. As a servant, you should be happy for your master.

"Ulrika had a joking smile on her face.

It is not difficult to see from the conversation between the two that they have known each other for a long time, and they also know each other's identity.

"Protection? Hahahahaha! Are you making me laugh? The master doesn't need any protection, but his enemies need it more. Also, your method of cleaning up those devil spies is too rough and will cause unnecessary panic."

Yelnia sneered disdainfully.

"There is nothing we can do about it. The current situation in the North is too complicated. The struggle within the Zhentarim is becoming increasingly fierce. The church power of Cyric and Bane is also ready to move. I must cut through the mess quickly to complete what the goddess has given me.

mission." The succubus defended herself.

"My master has formed an alliance with the Church of Benn, and plans to join forces with Fuzor Chamberry to kill Manson. By then, the entire Zhentarim will also become allies. So you'd better not mess around, otherwise I will take action myself.

Slit your throat."

After saying these threatening words, Yelnia disappeared into the shadows again.

Ulrika, who stayed where she was, touched her chin and muttered to herself: "Allying with Bane's church? Does the Son of Plague intend to help the God of Tyranny resurrect to weaken the power of the Dark Sun? Or does he have a bigger one?

Plan? Damn it! I have to tell the goddess these things quickly."

After that, the succubus quickly found a hotel to stay in, and took out the holy symbol in the room to pray secretly.

After a while, Talona, ​​who was in the outer plane kingdom, learned the entire content.

She was sitting on a huge throne at the moment, her eyes looking far ahead. It took a full minute before she asked: "Do you think Soth really wants to help Bane, the god of tyranny, resurrect?"
p>

"It's hard to say. But this is not a bad thing for us, but a good thing. At least Bane's resurrection can tear off several priests and a large number of believers from Cyric, and it can also attract Cyric to the maximum extent.

Rick's attention, thus buying us more time." Torture Goddess Lovita analyzed seriously.

Since the signing of the alliance, the two have formed a good cooperative relationship in a short period of time.

Talona, ​​in particular, was very generous in allowing believers to build a shrine belonging to the goddess of torture, Lavita, in their own temple.

As a result, with its rapidly expanding influence, the latter has gradually enjoyed some benefits.

Obviously, in the eyes of these two goddesses, Cyric, who became a powerful god after the end of the Year of Turbulence, is an out-and-out "upstart" and madman, and is not worthy of becoming a qualified god at all.

In contrast, they are more inclined to Baal, Melkor and Bane, the three gods of death.

This is why Cyric has clearly obtained all the priesthoods of the three gods of death, but neither Talona nor Lavita has the slightest intention to get closer to him.

Before Zuo Si arrived, the two evil goddesses chose to flirt with Shar, the goddess of the night, who had planned countless conspiracies.

"You are right. If Bane is resurrected, it will be good for us all." Talona nodded with deep understanding. "But the question is, if Bane is successfully resurrected, will Baal and Melkor be resurrected?"

Can they also be resurrected? If all three gods of death are resurrected, how will our plan be implemented?"

"On this point, I think you should find an opportunity to have a good talk with that elector. Only if he is willing to support and help you, can you have the opportunity to obtain the death priesthood you dream of, even if it is only a small part, and thus get

Become the last piece of the puzzle to become a powerful god." Lauvita said meaningfully.

As soon as this matter was mentioned, Talona immediately became very angry and said through gritted teeth: "Do you think I don't want to? It's all because of that bastard Ilmat! He actually gave the remaining divine power in Baal's heart to Soth, causing

I couldn't take the initiative to enter his spiritual world. Later, that shameless bitch at midnight gave me silver fire, which made my influence on him become weaker and weaker."

"But at least he didn't explicitly reject you. This is actually an opportunity, let's see if you can seize it. What's more, isn't it just to avoid those surveillances that you sent that succubus to the material plane?"

When saying these words, the corners of Lovita's mouth slightly raised, as if she had guessed something.

"Thos is not in Faerun right now, but has gone to other planes that I don't know. When he comes back, I will contact him as soon as possible. No matter what the goddess of magic and the god of knowledge give him, I can do it

Give more." Talona's eyes flashed with naked and unabashed possessiveness.

Upon seeing this, Lovita immediately nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, you must have such awareness. Because your chosen one has endless potential and is worth paying any price for it. In addition... the conversation between you should not be

Do you mind if I listen?"

"Don't even think about it!" Talona refused without hesitation. "Soth is mine, and you can never get a share of it."

"Haha, that's not necessarily the case. In my opinion, he has considerable potential in torturing his enemies. Especially the sentence that death is not your enemy but eternity is, which simply elevates abuse to an unprecedented level. Only eternity is

The pain is the real pain, and only eternal regret is the best way to torture a person crazy."

Lovita's tone was a little excited.
