Arcane Lord

After all, the issue of the elves taking refuge is just a small episode during the Midsummer Festival. Even if we take it seriously, we will wait until they come over. However, judging from the escape of the Silverleaf family, Shado feels that there may be more elves fleeing to Netheril. .

For humans, it seems like they can watch the fire from the other side and rejoice in others' misfortunes. However, once the situation on Cormanthor deteriorates, no one can guarantee that the drow will not rush into human territory.

Shado once met the predecessor of drow, the Sri Elves, in the [Projection Plane, Mai Yeli Tower, Sukanwisa City]. In fact, a considerable part of the citizens of Mai Yeli Tower are Sri Elves.

Moreover, the Sree elves have even established an independent country, known as the "Ilisre" kingdom. They are brave, warlike, and good at fighting. This was the general evaluation of the Sri elves by other elves at that time.

In the era of Sha Duo's projection, there were no black-skinned and short drow in the Sri elves. They were still white-skinned, tall and strong Sri elves. As for why they became drow, Sha Duo did not find detailed information. .

I only know that during the Crown War, during the war with Arivanda, Ilysri, who was originally in an advantage, suddenly disappeared. It is said that it was due to the curse of the Elven Lord God that they were buried underground.

In the game that Sha Duo played before time travel, there was also this plot, which was called "The Fall of Drow", but it was not explained clearly.

What the specific situation is, perhaps only the Elf Lord knows.

After all, it has been thousands of years since the Crown War, and even the elves may not live that long.

But no matter what, at least in the eyes of the drow themselves, they have experienced various negative effects such as conspiracy, betrayal, oppression, and curses, which will definitely bring a lot of resentment.

Otherwise, if you can stay well underground, why do you have to come to the surface! It must be the dual effects of hatred and environment that made them rush to the ground at the first opportunity!

In this case, they might attack the elves first, but what reason do they have to let humans go?

What's more, whether it's the existing information on the main plane, Xia Duo's personal experience in [Projection Plane·Erlan·Silver Light City], or the background setting of the game on the earth before the time travel, Zhuoer is all Synonymous with cruelty and cunning.

Under the shade of the trees in the garden of the temple, even though Xia Duo and Niya stopped chatting and entered into their respective research states again, Xia Duo could not calm down in his heart.

How long has it been since then to live a stable life, and what kind of drow has come out again? I don’t know when this kind of life will end!

This also made Xia Duo more determined to follow the path of civilized development. No matter how outstanding an individual is, his abilities are always limited. Only by gathering the wisdom of countless people can he have nearly infinite abilities.

If nothing changes, then the final outcome of Netheril may be that the floating city falls to the ground and the kingdom of Zuo ends thousands of years later. Later generations can only get a glimpse of Netheril's past through the remaining ruins in the desert. past.

The magical empire that lasted for thousands of years ended up with only a few fragments of legends left, which is a bit sad.

Xia Duo was involved in it, and it was difficult to stay out of it. Moreover, even if he had to leave, where could he go? It's better to work hard in a place where you have already established a foundation and are more familiar.

Constantly thinking about the possible impact of the appearance of drow and his own position in the future, the time has reached dusk before he knows it, and the sun is about to sink below the horizon.

Xia Duo put away the spell notes that he had not read for a long time, leaned on the back of his chair, looked over the high wall not far away, and looked at the sky that had been turned golden by the setting sun.

"Huh?" Xia Duo suddenly sat upright.

He rubbed his eyes and looked to the west again, more precisely to the northwest, even further north. At a height of almost 60 degrees from the ground, a star was twinkling.

If it were just stars twinkling, Xia Duo wouldn't be so fussy. Due to refraction of the air, star twinkling is considered a normal phenomenon and is common sense.

But the problem is, it's dusk now, and the light is not too dark. The last rays of the setting sun dye half of the sky golden. In this case, you can still see it twinkling, which shows how bright this star is.

That's not all. Xia Duo can spot it in the afterglow of the setting sun at a glance, not just because it is very bright. After all, it is just a star. There is a limit to how bright it is. It is definitely incomparable to the sun, even the setting sun. ——

At this moment, the sun has not completely sunk below the horizon!

What really allowed Chateau to separate this star from the golden sky background against the setting sun was its color!

Scarlet red, with a hint of ominousness!

…

The strangeness on Sha Duo's side quickly alerted Niya, who was about to put away her notes. She followed Sha Duo's gaze to the northwest, but saw nothing, and her eyes couldn't help but feel a little confused.

So, Niya directly knocked on the small round table between the two of them and asked: "What are you looking at? His expression is so weird!"

Hearing the sound, Sha Duo immediately withdrew his gaze and looked at Niya, only to see Nia staring at him curiously. Sha Duo pointed to the northwest sky and explained: "There is a scarlet star shining there. , your location may be blocked by a tree, you can see it when you go to the side."

"Twinking scarlet stars?" Niya was a little disbelieving, but more of it was uncertainty about this phenomenon. She knew that Xia Duo had no reason to lie to her about this kind of thing.

Since Xia Duo said she couldn't see from this position, Niya simply stood up and came to Xia Duo's side, holding on to Xia Duo's seat, squatting down slightly, close to Xia Duo's viewing angle just now, and looking towards the northwest.

Soon, she discovered her target, "It's actually true?!"

"Of course it's true!" Xia Duo slightly avoided Niya's head and asked, "Do you know what kind of star that is?"

The breath that was almost close to her ears made Niya blush a little. She quickly sat back on her seat, picked up the tea cup and took a sip to cover it up.

As for Xia Duo's question, Niya was a little embarrassed. She had no research on astrology, so she could only say, "I don't know!"

He seemed to feel that saying this was a bit perfunctory, so he quickly added, "Not only have I never seen it, but I have never heard of it. There is no similar record in the Tower of Time. As for the Giles Tower, maybe I can wait until I go back to find it. look."

Even Niya didn't know, so Shado couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. After thinking about it, he contacted Aibo and Bishop Ambril, maybe he could get some information from them.

The stars appeared during the day, which didn’t look like a normal phenomenon. And that color, whether it was a psychological effect or some other reason, gave Xia Duo a vague premonition.
