Lord God Investigator

The little gray dwarf girl was easily subdued. She didn't even react before she was held in place by Ditra's immobilization technique, unable to move.

The members of the legendary adventure group lifted the invisibility effect and appeared out of thin air in front of the bewildered little girl, which frightened her.

The body-holding technique does not have a silence effect. Just as the little gray dwarf was about to open his mouth and scream, the halfling Hall flashed in front of her and grabbed her by the throat.

The little girl could only make a slight "uh-uh" sound.

The halfling legendary thief took out his dagger, smiled and lowered his voice and said to his teammates: "Just give me two minutes, and I will let her tell everything she knows."

The halflings all have baby faces, and Hall smiles like an innocent 12-year-old human boy, but everyone in the adventure group heard the cruelty hidden in his words.

As a notorious gang leader in Waterdeep City, Hall's joining the adventure group was just a deal. He was not on the same page as this group of people, and he just used it in exchange for a reduced sentence.

When Ditra formed the adventure group, he fully considered the issues of "evil people know evil people better" and "someone has to get their hands dirty", so he reserved a lawful evil member seat in the team.

The little gray dwarf girl was trembling with fear. When Hall said these words, he used the common language of Faerun to let the victim vaguely understand what he was about to experience, which was also one of the techniques of torture.

Ditra shook his head and said coldly: "This is not the way we do things. It is better to leave this talent of yours to those who really need it. Even if she is a gray dwarf or a member of the evil Bredlow Party, we will Children will not be tortured.”

"Okay, my lord."

Hall shrugged indifferently and let go of the gray dwarf child. He wanted to see a joke and wanted to see how these "loving people" could coax a frightened gray dwarf child who was about to lose control.

Although he looks like a child, Hall doesn't like children at all. In his opinion, even elf children are unreasonable little monsters.

Ditra opened his palm and waved it in front of the gray dwarf girl, silently casting the "Friendly Spell" without reciting a spell.

The little gray dwarf girl's eyelids were drooped, as if she was sleepy. She soon came back to her senses, her panic slowly dissipated, and she calmed down.

"Hello, lovely little girl, don't be afraid, we are lost travelers, would you like to do me a favor?"

Ditra said in a hoarse voice. Although he tried his best to speak in a soft tone, the change of tone caused by a severe lung infection and his pale face with green fluorescence still made him look very scary.

I don’t know whether it was the friendliness spell in the legendary realm that falsely increased his charm attribute, or whether the gray dwarves’ aesthetics were different from those of the surface races, but the little girl smiled back at him.

"Oh, hello, dear old grandpa."

The little girl bowed politely to Ditra: "Of course I am willing to help. Teacher Klein said that helping others is the foundation of happiness."

Ditra touched the little girl's head, smiled kindly and said, "Good boy, what's your name?"

"Mia, Mia-Bronzehelm, what shall I call you?"

"Ditra, Ditra-Munho, you can call me Dick, that's what my friends call me."

"Grandpa Dick..."

"Little Mia, what are you doing?"

"Ah, I was picking heather. Mr. Garth likes heather very much, so I picked it for him. Oh, Mr. Garth is my friend, and he is a kind human being like you."

Just like this, Ditra seemed to be chatting with the neighbor's children in his hometown in Waterdeep City, chatting with the cubs of a famous evil tribe in the jagged caves of the Underdark.

Mia is actually not cute. Children of gray dwarves are not like children of humans or elves. They have wrinkles on their faces and gray skin since they were born. Except for dwarves, no other race thinks they are cute.

Even kobold cubs, because they resemble puppies, are more lovable than dwarf children in terms of cross-racial aesthetics.

However, Ditra doesn't care whether Mia conforms to the external aesthetic. After the mage casts the friendly spell, he should treat the target with the same friendly attitude. To prevent the target from resisting the spell's effect is an iron rule written in the basic spellcasting tutorial.

Soon, the old mage made friends with the little gray dwarf girl, as if they really hit it off.

Mia began to worry about her new friend: "Grandpa Dick, you look very bad. Are you sick?"

Ditra's breathing sounded like a broken bellows. Suppressing the urge to cough, the old mage smiled bitterly and said: "As you can see, I have a strange disease, but don't worry about me, I will get better."

Mia stared at Ditra carefully for a long time, tears welling up in her eyes. The little girl cried and said: "No, grandpa, you seem to have blight. This disease cannot be cured."

Ditra was stunned. He had been searching in the classics to find the cause of his illness, but found nothing. Unexpectedly, a little girl he met in the Underdark suddenly revealed the name of the illness.

"Can you tell me what blight is?" Ditra asked.

“If you dig too deep and find a vein of emerald stone, and you don’t know that emerald stone can cause blight, where is it?

If you stay there for too long, you'll get blight. "

Mia wiped her tears and said, "Uncle Norman Iron Pickaxe suffered from blight. The mine collapsed and trapped him in the emerald mine. By the time everyone dug him out, it was already too late."

"Is there no cure for this disease?"

"If they haven't stayed in the emerald mine for too long, gray dwarves are not as afraid of blight as other races." Mia wiped her tears and said, "However, if they are exposed to green fluorescent light for too long, gray dwarves will also get sick. , gradually weakened and died. Grandpa, you seem to have reached an advanced stage... Wuwu, I really don’t want you to die."

"Good boy, don't cry, grandpa will get better..."

Ditra took the little girl into his arms and comforted her softly, as if he were comforting his own granddaughter.

"Grandpa, you are lying to me, that's what Uncle Tiehao said, but he died soon..."

Ditra did not have a granddaughter, he was not even married, and his shortcomings in magic talent had to be made up for with ten times the effort. He became an archmage entirely because he devoted all his energy to studying without any distractions.

Even though she knew this was the friendly spell at work, Ditra couldn't help but feel warm in her heart.

"Mia, good boy, if you don't want grandpa to die, then take grandpa to see Mr. Bredlow."

Ditra whispered: "Do you know Bradero? He may have a way to cure my disease."

"Yes!" Mia nodded heavily: "Mr. Bredlow is the smartest and most knowledgeable person in the world. He knows a lot of knowledge. Maybe he really has a way to cure blight!"
