Dr. Green Dragon

Holy fountain of knowledge!

The third Temple of Knowledge in Waterdeep City.

Moreover, it is planned in the format of the core hub temple, and it is even said that it refers to the style of Candlekeep, the most famous holy place of the God of Knowledge in the material world.

It can be said that this newly built temple is definitely, or at least will be, the Sword Coast region, and even the entire Northland, a sacred place of knowledge comparable to Candlekeep Qihui.

It is precisely because of this temple that I have high expectations that even though Isaac temporarily put aside his plan to visit the "Tower of the Black Rod", he still puts his visit to this temple at the top of the list of plans for his party in Waterdeep City. Front.

And this night visit...

"'It is said' that you can't believe it all!"

In front of a huge fountain square.

The reflection of countless lights and the never-ending fountain sputtered out a rainbow-like mist in the sky.

This artistic and wonderful scene naturally attracted countless people.

In the square, musicians perform, dancers pose vertically, poets recite...

Of course, there is also an audience who can bring out their temperament.

Isaac and his party arrived here.

His eyes scanned the performances in the square, and finally looked at the end of the square, the temple that also looks like a library.

In Isaac's mind, some of the "rumors" about the "Sacred Fountain of Knowledge" in the materials reported by Beasley had directly denied most of them.

Perhaps this temple may indeed become one of the holy places of the Church of Knowledge, but if it is said that it refers to the style of Candlekeep... this is obviously a fallacy!

Although Isaac had never visited Candlekeep in person, he knew about it. It was more like a serious history museum.

And this "Sacred Fountain of Knowledge"...

"Literature and Art!"

"Knowledge and inspiration!"

"This is a completely different style from Candlekeep!"

"but……"

His eyes narrowed slightly again, his mind and will seemed to take a long breath, and when he opened it again...

In Isaac's eyes, there was an almost imperceptible gloom, which disappeared without a trace in a flash.

Although it focuses on "literature, art, inspiration" and other aspects, this temple has just been built... the sacred atmosphere is obviously much thicker than the natural green "city library"!

Obviously, the God of Knowledge, and perhaps his two followers, pay more attention to this "Sacred Fountain of Knowledge" than the Kingdom of Red!

The four gods of the pantheon of knowledge.

The master of the pantheon is naturally the god of knowledge. In myths and legends, it is said that he defined the names of all laws, so that he stabilized the form of the laws, so he is revered as the "binder of all knowledge". The undisputed main god of the pantheon!

His two subordinate gods are the "God of Literature" and "God of Music", which are the gods who assist him in preserving and promoting knowledge, and each corresponds to the two aspects of "literature" and "art".

The "God of Craftsmanship" is a bit outside the closely connected three.

From this "Sacred Spring of Knowledge", and even more from within the "Sacred Spring of Knowledge", he could faintly sense some breath of life in his mind and will...

"Waterdeep City is indeed far above the natural green in terms of literary and artistic heritage, and Baldur's Gate cannot compare with it."

"I certainly have a considerable wooing attitude towards the knowledge sect, but for so many years, their investment in the green of nature and the 'urban library' is nothing more than the positioning of an important parish."

"In the final analysis, the positioning of Natural Green is mainly for business, and the kobolds are not interested in 'literature' and 'art' at all."

"With such background, we must catch up with Waterdeep City..."

In his heart, Isaac shook his head slightly.

At least the current natural green is not a sacred place for literature, let alone the pursuit of art.

Compared with the two, it is still a craft invention that can be closely integrated with commerce, and it is more in line with the greenness of nature, and it is also in line with the development strategy of the kingdom!

This cognition was quickly clarified in his heart, but Isaac also temporarily put some expectations of the God of Knowledge on hold.

"The one in Enther once said that gods should keep pace with the times and actively adapt to changes."

"It's the same in reverse."

"The choice of faith should also be in line with actual needs!"

"The kingdom is based on commerce. The God of Craftsmanship and the Goddess of Wealth should be the first choice. The Goddess of Luck and the sea gods related to maritime trade are also needed."

"Similarly, the kobolds have a natural belief in the dragon queen and the god of kobolds."

"To diversify, to have more background, this is first of all in oneself!"

"If at any time, the tone of the kingdom itself is not limited to the basics of business, naturally, other needs will also give rise to corresponding diversification!"

Of course, although he has made a decision in his heart, Isaac will not show it in words and deeds.

For the visit to the "Sacred Spring of Knowledge", he still walked around in person, and also contributed ten gold coins, and took away another book, which was given back to the donor by the temple.

Just then, the three people gathered on the square again, enjoying various performances with relish, at least two of them watched with relish, and then continued to visit.

...

And the four of them over there were taking a leisurely tour of the night view of Deep Water City, and at the same time, they were giving some people enough time to complete all preparations.

"Master Howard, I don't recommend tracking magic detection."

"I'm pretty sure that both sides of this target are extremely vigilant, and Dunant, who yawned at the hotel, thinks the same way."

"That's why Xia Lanweiluosi invited you, if because of scouting, both targets are alerted in advance..."

Ms. Irene's team has already assembled.

She and her team of collaborators, including some people related to the city guards, can allow their actions to not be disturbed by the city guards. In some cases, they can also directly call the city guards. Some of her power is accumulated over the years of her career as an adventurer... well, mainly because of some of the relationships she had back then.

A series of people invited by the Dragon of Thousand Laws also arrived.

A man and a woman, two masked persons.

It looked like an elite team of twelve adventurers.

There is also a team of five spellcasters.

At this time, Ms. Irene was discussing some tactics with the leader of the caster team, the mage Howard who had received funding from Ciaran Weiluosi and had maintained a cooperative relationship.

Scrying is certainly a good thing, but...

Whether it's the caster of "Scent of the Night", or the person who can't even see through Dunan's experience, and her "true eyes" can't see anything abnormal, it's hard to say whether Master Howard's scrying technique will alarm everyone both sides.

"You don't need scouting, do you still have to follow it yourself?"

"Since it's not easy for both sides, if you follow up personally, can you be sure to hide it from them?"

Master Howard asked in a deep voice.

He is not arrogant, he can make Xia Lanweiluosi move so many people at once, he also has a premonition that the goal will not be simple, especially, some disclosures have been made, one of them may have something to do with the Dragon Worship Sect It matters.

But again, with so many people, it is obviously not suitable for direct tracking.

At least, their team doesn't have much stealth ability.

"We combine the two."

Ms. Irene is not only the initiator, but she has also been prepared for a long time. She has quite a lot of experience in "hiring" to fight against the Dragon Worship Cult, especially the Dao of Scales.

Looking at everyone, she said slowly: "On the one hand, I have already made an agreement with the guards at the three city gates in the commercial area. They will secretly pay attention to the movement of the target, especially the most important one, which is connected to the southern area. There, you can temporarily hide inside the city defense facilities and wait for everything to come."

"In addition, to prevent other accidents, I will personally follow up. When necessary, I will send a separate message to you. At that time, Master Howard can use the scrying technique to directly follow me, and then indirectly follow those people."

"In short, in all our plans, safety is the first principle, so that the two sides will tear each other apart. If we can take the opportunity to discover the secrets of both of them, it will be the most perfect ending!"

And the more perfect the ending is... Ms. Irene is already wondering if it is possible to turn over and offset the account book of the steel dragon directly!

"I think it's okay!"

"Madam, I have heard about the legendary adventures in the Lost Land Leyline City back then. It is naturally the safest way for you to follow up yourself."

"We are at the city gate, waiting for your signal."

The first person to agree was Xinas, the leader of the "Sword of Xivan".

As an elite member of the Adventurer's Guild, he has a lot of legends about the adventure group that Ms. Irene was in back then.

Even if you have enough confidence in your team, if you want to talk about stealth and tracking, is there anyone who can beat this lady...

At least for this lady, now that she is not yet old, he will not be too arrogant.

It is not the first time to cooperate with "Sword of Xifan".

Seeing what Cynas said, Master Howard thought about it for a while, but he didn't object. As long as this person's stealth ability is sufficient, it is indeed more secretive to follow this person with scrying technique.

"Then wait for the summons from the lady!"

Howard nodded slightly, also agreeing with Ms. Irene's plan.

The masked Antiroste and Charlotte, one is a house dragon, who is fed and drank by others, and the other only specializes in laundry and sewing, so naturally they will not express any opinions in this regard.

Seeing that the other two parties agreed, the two of them also showed aloof attitude, they just nodded and didn't even make a sound.

However, with their nods, this is enough.

Ms. Irene immediately made arrangements.

Needless to say, her team will lead everyone to the city gate and take their seats.

After exchanging the communication method with Master Howard herself, she completed the change of clothes familiarly, and quickly sneaked into the crowds of the business district.

Combined with the constant information coming in from some sources, within a short time, she had already hanged on the target's tail from afar.

But until now...

"It's time to turn back!"

From the information, Ms. Irene quickly came to a conclusion about the general direction of travel of these people.

And since it's time to look back...

Ms. Irene, who was just hanging in the distance without any direct observation, had a gleam of coldness flashing through her eyes.

With the usual efficiency of those people, if you want to do something tonight, it's time to start!

And if you don't do it tonight... With the long-lasting effect of "Scent of the Dark Night", it will most likely be in the daytime tomorrow.

Compared with the daytime environment, it is obviously more suitable for hands-on at night!

Therefore, if nothing unexpected happens, there is a high probability that it will start!

"It's a pity for that little brother!"

"For so many years, it's rare to have a better smell than Mutter at that time!"

A little regretful look.

If it really has something to do with the Dragon Worship Sect and the Dao of Scale, no matter how good it smells, she can only give up.

...

After the four of Isaac toured in a circle, it was almost midnight.

Although the business district was busy day and night, it was still busy, but they had no intention of continuing their shopping.

When approaching the gate of the southern district.

Beasley brought in two more carriages.

The carriage quickly drove into the southern area, from the land of brilliance, as if it was quickly submerged in darkness, it pointed directly in the direction of Yawning Hotel.

Speed ​​up on their side.

Ms. Irene's movements also sped up.

He quickly passed the city gate, but did not immediately summon Master Howard.

After entering the southern area, she quickly changed clothes. She was equipped with leather armor, and with a pair of bat wings spread out behind her, she was haunting the darkness between the attic and the attic.

...

In the middle of the night, the southern area and the commercial area are separated by a wall, but they seem to be two worlds.

Two carriages galloped on the dark street, almost only these two carriages passed by along the way.

Under the silent night, in the distance, the sound of the carriage, and the indication of the positioning disc, precisely showed that the fat sheep was coming towards the sheep pen.

"Resolve the target within two minutes, and return to the ground before the sentry guards respond."

The eerie voice of the third hand of the Exanza union, the dwarf Amargo, reached everyone's ears.

He had recently joined the Exanza trade union and became the third hand of the "Eyes and Hands". He was the notorious slave trader in the Northland.

On the side of Waterdeep City, with the help of information from the Exantha trade union, whether it is looting or kidnapping, it is always beneficial.

The special requirements of some customers can be accurately positioned.

This is much more refreshing than doing it alone or buying information from the Kraken Association back then.

The only downside...

"First hand and second hand, and... eyes!"

While issuing orders indifferently, and tucking the positioning disk into his waist, his gaze casually passed over another elite team that was separated from them.

The hand of the eye, the eleven hands, even he has to admit that the power held by the first hand is indeed superior to all of them.

In particular, the first-hand is still the direct spokesperson of the "eye"!

think of that...

Even though the slave trader was cruel enough, for a moment, there was a gloomy feeling in his heart.

It's impossible to get rid of that person's control for a while.

For the time being... How can we replace the first hand, and also capture the secret of her "positioning disk", should be the first goal!

It is this thought.

The sound of the carriage was quickly approaching.

Amargo waved his hand, and at the same time as he gave the command, the heavy black iron battle ax with a strong smell of blood also fell into his hands.
