Lord God Investigator

The Mithril Five left the residence of the Bradlow Theater Company. They went to the Bronze Crown Hotel and sat around the round table in the hotel lobby.

Bruno Warhammer shouted to the waiter and ordered a table of wine and food. The Mithril team started a discussion while eating.

"Is Mr. Bredlow crazy? What is he talking about? It sounds like the teachings of a cult."

Catti-brie spoke first. She had long noticed that Drizzt had become taciturn and worried after hearing Bradero's rants.

"Little girl, don't talk too much, women don't need to care about this kind of thing."

The old dwarf Bruenor waved his hand towards her. He could understand what Bradero was saying and what effect those words would have on Drizzt.

"But dad..."

Catti-brie blamed her adoptive father and hesitated to speak. Although she could only understand a few words, she also knew the shocking meaning of the "revolution" the artist said.

Halfling Regis spread his hands and said: "I don't understand what you are troubled about, Drizzt. That artist from a foreign land is probably the 'Godless God Society', the 'Source Believers Society' or the 'Revolutionary Alliance' ' is a madman who wants to spread foreign heresies to the main material world. With your wisdom, can't you see through it?"

Wulfgar did not participate in the discussion, he was busy "battle" with a roasted pig's leg.

Drizzt sighed and said to Regis: "You have not read that book. If you had read that book, you would understand that Mr. Bredlow can never be a believer in those foreign sects."

"Think about it carefully, if there were no gods and adventurers like us, would the continent of Faerûn collapse?"

Drizzt asked Regis.

The halfling scratched his head and looked confused. He thought for a while and said, "Without the gods and adventurers, the demon lords of the bottomless abyss and the shadow monsters in the negative energy world will be happy."

Drizzt shook his head and said: "No, if mortals can unite to overthrow the gods, what do demons and monsters mean? As long as mortals unite, the power gathered together is truly powerful. Can you imagine that kind of belief? Power? The demons in the bottomless abyss have lost the source of their fallen souls, and the monsters in the negative energy world have not been nourished by the lost spirits of the desperate, so their power will be greatly weakened."

"Drizzt, why do you have such arrogant thoughts?"

The old dwarf Bruno frowned and said: "Mortals should be in awe..."

Drizzt lowered his head and whispered: "In some cities, a group of humans exploit the weak of their own kind and live in luxurious palaces, while other men, women, and even children die of hunger in the muddy streets. In the ditch next to it, these are the facts we saw during our journey.”

The four Mithril Heroes nodded in unison.

"Why don't the gods protect these weak people? Can't they see it?" Drizzt continued: "Can we save these weak people? The gods did not save them, and we cannot save them, because in this world, such people are exploited and bullied There are too many weak people, and our abilities are limited. As adventurers, we can destroy a group of gangsters, but we cannot overthrow a tyrant."

"And the gods..." Drizzt sighed: "If the tyrant believes in Bane, it will be a protracted dispute between the gods. The good gods can never destroy the evil gods. In this long process, only the people Suffering.”

Everyone in the Mithril team stopped talking, and the atmosphere was a bit dull.

Drizzt continued: "In this world full of dangers, where orcs and trolls run rampant, any guy on the roadside who can fight seems to be respected as a hero and supported by everyone. I think the true meaning of "hero" The significance does not lie in its strength or fighting ability."

"Mr. Bredreau is at least right about one thing. If someone can stand up and establish a new country that puts the interests of the people first, sweep away the gangsters and monsters in the country, so that young people can go to school to study, and the sick and injured can Only those who can receive treatment can be called 'heroes'."

Catti-brie bit her lip and asked timidly: "Drizzt, do you really believe what that madman says? Do you want to join him in resisting the gods?"

"Child, this is a man's business, women, please don't interrupt!"

Her adoptive father, the old dwarf Bruno, interrupted her again.

Drizzt took a deep breath and looked lovingly at the girl with a beautiful face and a slightly stronger figure with his purple eyes.

"Sorry, Katie..."

The dark elf ranger clenched his fists and said resolutely: "I don't want to be an enemy of the gods, and I will not even betray Mielikki's faith, but I know that in my lifetime, I will definitely return to the Underdark. To face again everything I had avoided and feared.”

"I don't know if I can change my kindred."

Drizzt recalled while saying: "Actually, the nature of dark elves is not inherently evil. There is at least one person, a man, my father, my mentor Zach... He is my enlightenment, and it is he who makes me understand the darkness. The elf is evil in nature, but he used his sacrifice to change my understanding of my race and origin."

"Among the dark elves, there are people like my father and people like me." Drizzt pointed at himself and said, "That means the dark elves are not hopelessly depraved."

"Capture Menzoberranzan..."

The old dwarf pondered and said: "The artist's requirements are not low, but compared with his arrogance of overthrowing the gods and liberating Faerun, it is not absolutely impossible to achieve. But with just the few of us..."

"The dimensional bag he showed me contains resources worth tens of millions of gold coins." Drizzt said: "A great artist well-known in Faerûn who gave out tens of millions of gold coins should not just want to follow me. just kidding."

"Moradin's hammer!" the old dwarf exclaimed: "With tens of millions of gold coins, even if that guy is a madman, he is still a rich madman!"

"Do artists make money like this?" Halfling Regis also exclaimed, "Maybe we should consider changing careers."

"I want to give it a try."

Drizzt looked at his friends with stern eyes: "But I don't want you to be involved. I will return to the Underdark with Bradero, and you will wait for me on the surface."

The members of Mithril Team shook their heads in unison.

"Don't even think about leaving me!" said Catti-brie angrily.

Bruno said with a straight face: "That won't work. I have to stay with you to prevent you from being deceived by Bradero without knowing it."

"There are tens of millions of gold coins, don't try to keep it all to yourself." Regis said with a smile.

"Brother, wherever you go, I will go." Wulfgar threw down the half-eaten pig leg and said with a smile.
