At least thirteen families have already sent us, or to be more precise, you, very clear invitations.
It seems that after the battle at the tavern, the matrons of the entire city of Menzoberranzan have recognized your value."
Vinar's face was filled with excitement and excitement, and he was obviously very satisfied with the current situation.
Because she knew that the current situation was very favorable for her side.
Since many ambitious mistresses hope to recruit Zuo Si, a powerful fighter, to their ranks, a series of open and covert struggles will unfold among them.
In this way, as long as Zuo Si did not make a clear statement, he would not be targeted by any party and could even obtain some implicit privileges.
"What are you going to do? You have to know that the patience of the matrons is limited. If you keep dragging it out, they will regard it as disrespectful and offensive, and join hands to get rid of you." Trist couldn't help but interject.
Looking at the anxious eyes of the Dark Elf Ranger, Zuo Si smiled and asked, "Haha, what's the matter? Are you worried that I will join one of the families and get involved in the power struggle and killing within Menzoberranzan?"
"Shouldn't I be worried? Ever since we entered Menzoberranzan, your behavior has frightened me. I can't believe that you can integrate into the dark elf society so perfectly, whether in your behavior or thoughts, without even the slightest discomfort or fear."
There was a hint of helplessness in Trist's tone.
At this moment, he was finally 100% sure that this young human in front of him, whose intentions and thoughts were unclear, was definitely a member of the evil camp.
Maybe their level of evil is even greater than that of their bloodthirsty and brutal compatriots.
Because the evil displayed by Zuo Si was not the simple killing, destruction and plundering, but something more complex at a deeper level, from spirit, thought to values and ideology.
The most important thing is that Trist did not feel even the slightest bit of disgust towards Zuo Si's many evil deeds.
Instead, they felt an indescribable attraction from the other person, which made them want to follow and work for him.
This strange feeling sometimes makes the ranger even think he is crazy, or that returning to Menzoberranzan has aroused the dark side hidden in his soul.
Zuo Si obviously noticed Drizzt's reaction, and immediately said in a slightly amusing tone: "There is a saying in my hometown, which is "When in Rome, do as the Romans do." To put it simply, when you enter an unfamiliar land, it is best to temporarily put aside your arrogance and prejudice and respect the living habits and customs of the locals, even if these habits and customs are contrary to your own values and morals."
"You mean... by doing this, you are actually respecting the evil, twisted, and morbid rules of the dark elf society?" Trist raised his eyebrows in disbelief.
Zuo Si smiled and shook his head: "No, of course not, I am just respecting the spider goddess Rose's absolute control over the entire dark elf race, and the code of conduct she set for the entire race.
Remember, Drizzt Do'Urden, the evil of the dark elves is never just because of the gods or themselves.
It also includes the harsh living environment in the Underdark and the Crown War ten thousand years ago that ended the elves' rule over the world, which is a historical reason.
Believe me, even if Queen Lolth suddenly severed her ties with all the priestesses, the dark elf society that has lived in the underground world for thousands or even tens of thousands of years would not change much and would continue their previous way of life.
Because their thoughts and cognition have been completely distorted, and they are full of hatred towards other races in the entire surface world.
This hatred and hostility has accumulated over thousands of years and has long been rooted in the souls of most dark elves. It is the only bond that maintains their internal unity.
Anyone who attempts to overthrow it would be destroying the greatest cornerstone of the stability of Dark Elf society.
If tens of thousands of dark elves found out that they had been deceived and that the living environment on the surface was many times better than that in the Underdark, how would they react? I can tell you that the answer would be turmoil, infighting, and division.
The dark elves in the Underdark will engage in an unprecedentedly brutal civil war, and may even decline or even perish as a result.
So in my opinion, it is impossible to change the social structure of the dark elves through external interference in a short period of time.
Since it cannot be changed, there are naturally only two choices left.
One is to risk offending Queen Rose and go on a killing spree to slaughter all the dark elves in the entire city of Menzoberranzan, and the other is to adapt and integrate into it.
Tell me, which one do you want me to choose?"
moment!
Drizzt fell silent.
Because through these remarks, he clearly realized for the first time the real problem of his race being mired in evil.
It's not that dark elves are inherently evil, but the influence of beliefs, history, and society has resulted in only evil dark elves being able to survive in such a cruel environment.
It is as if everyone around you follows evil rules, then kind people in society are equivalent to outliers and will 100% become the targets of oppression and exclusion.
In this regard, the Dark Elf Ranger has personal experience.
After figuring this out, Drizzt raised his head and asked in an uncertain tone: "So what are you going to do next?"
Zuo Si responded without hesitation: "It's very simple! My goal has been very clear from the beginning. The reason I entered Menzoberranzan is just to gather information and collect clues about the Fungal Forest and the druid Angel Poison Core. After getting what I want, we will leave Menzoberranzan directly."
"But those matrons won't let you go easily." Trist warned in a serious tone.
"It doesn't matter. Let them send a team to hunt me down. Once we leave Menzoberranzan, I won't have to respect Queen Lolth's rule over the dark elves anymore, and I can kill without restraint."
As he said this, a chilling light flashed in Zuo Si's eyes.
Although he gained an equal status with the gods of Faerun through the trump card of Eldrazi, it does not mean that he can trample on the rules of the game between the gods at will.
Just the opposite!
He had to follow some rules and try not to make too many enemies.
Especially Rose, the main goddess of the dark elves, who has no actual conflict of interest with herself.
Zuo Si remembered very clearly that this goddess was an expert at planning conspiracies and schemes.
In the "War of the Spider Queen" that she launched in the future, she successfully eliminated all the gods that could threaten her position, even her own son and daughter, and at the same time was promoted from a medium-level god to a powerful god.
You know, in the history of Faerun, being promoted from weak divine power to medium divine power might not be a very rare thing.
But there are definitely only a handful of examples of people rising from medium-level divine power to become powerful divine power.
Unless necessary, Zuo Si didn't want to become an enemy of Rose.
Because he understood that with his current strength, he was far from being able to confront those powerful divine powers head-on.
The reason why the other party did not dare to touch him for the time being was, on the one hand, the threat from the Eldrazi, and on the other hand, the recognition from the God of Gods, Io.
If any of these two points is missing, gods like Cyric and Shar will immediately take action.
"Regarding the intelligence about the Fungal Forest, I think we should start from the Mage Tower. Because ordinary dark elves usually can't know too much. Only the mages, warlocks of the Mage Tower and the high-ranking priestess of the Spider Academy are qualified to know and record some important information." Vinar expressed his opinion carefully.
"I've asked Lirael to inquire about the Mage Tower, and there should be news soon. As for the Spider Academy, we can only hope to get some information from the matrons and high-level priestesses. Oh, I almost forgot, has the Dayet Independent Mercenary Group made any recent moves?" Zuo Si asked with interest.
Vinar shook his head slightly. "So far, there has been no action. It is said that Jarlaxle is not in Menzoberranzan at the moment, so I don't think he should be a threat to us."
"Let your men keep an eye on it. If there are any rumors that Jarlaxle is in Menzoberranzan, notify me immediately." Zuo Si ordered calmly.
"clear!"
After responding, Vinar immediately jumped down from a high place, turned around and disappeared into the darkness.
…
At the same time, far away in Menzoberranzan, on the top floor of the Mage Tower, Archmage Gump Baenre was sitting in his room, staring at the spy kneeling in front of him. After a full minute, he asked, "How is it, did you bring the information I wanted?"
"Of course! The Dayet Independent Mercenary Group will never let their employer down!"
As he spoke, the dark elf man, whose entire body was hidden under a black cloak, took out a slightly worn scroll from his arms.
Archmage Gongfu directly cast a mage's hand, brought the scroll closer, and first cast several detection spells. After confirming that there was no problem, he opened it.
It has to be said that the reason he became the strongest wizard in Menzoberranzan and survived for more than seven hundred years was definitely not because of something as illusory as luck, but because he was always vigilant.
Even a mere piece of parchment scroll must first be tested for toxins and magic to make sure there are no harmful substances, curses, or the like on it.
After reading the contents of the scroll, Gongfu's expression suddenly turned gloomy, and he asked in a slightly puzzled tone: "Why does this intelligence say that there is no such person?"
"It means exactly what it says. There is no dark elf named Soth in the city of Eredlin, and no noble families have suddenly disappeared recently." The spy gave an affirmative answer in an emotionless tone.
"So, this guy named Soth has problems with his identity and background?"
Gongfu narrowed his eyes subconsciously, and a suffocating sense of oppression emanated from his whole body.
The spy obviously understood the terrifying power of the great wizard in front of him. Sweat broke out on his forehead and he answered carefully, "Yes. According to our investigation, the dark elves under his command are all from the city of Eredlin. Especially the female leader named Venar, who had participated in a rebellion before and was forced to flee with her men after the failure."
"Okay, I understand."
Gongfu waved his hand gently, indicating that the other party could leave.
But for some reason, the spy did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he licked his dry lips and continued to probe: "Master Master, this guy named Sos deliberately approached your daughter. He must have bad intentions. I think you should join forces with our Dayet Independent Mercenary Group to eliminate this potential threat."
"Oh? Did Jarlaxle ask you to say that?" Gromph pursed his lips with undisguised contempt.
The spy shook his head quickly: "No, of course not. I just took the initiative to help you solve this little problem."
Hearing this, Gongfu immediately lost interest in talking to him. He waved his hand and said, "Go away! Don't do such self-righteous things in the future. This unknown Soth is not a small trouble. He is much more dangerous than you think."
The spy was obviously startled by the wizard's waving of his hand. He didn't dare to stay for even a second. He quickly put on his hood, turned around and disappeared at the end of the stairs leading to the lower level.
Not long after he left, Lirael ran in from another passage holding a book and asked excitedly, "Father, is this description of the origin of the Fungus Forest true? Was it really created out of thin air by Lady Fungus Zugmoi in ancient times?"
"Why are you suddenly interested in the origin of the fungal forest?" A hint of tenderness flashed in Gongfu's eyes.
Although due to the distorted matriarchal society of the Dark Elves, most fathers do not know how to handle the relationship between themselves and their children, his love for this daughter is real.
In order to allow Lirael to be given the surname "Banre", he even had to make a series of unknown deals with the matriarch of the family.
After all, according to the tradition of the dark elves, bloodline is only recognized through the maternal line and not the paternal line.
In other words, only the remaining children of noble women in the family can be given the family surname.
Normally, it would be in accordance with the rules for Lirael to take her mother's surname and join her mother's family.
However, the power and deterrence of the most powerful wizard in Menzoberranzan had apparently reached a level that allowed most dark elves to ignore this point and allow the girl to be given the surname of the Baenre family.
"Nothing, I just suddenly felt a little curious." Lirael lowered her head guiltily.
Gonfu stroked his chin and watched his daughter's strange reaction. He soon smiled and said, "You are probably helping that guy named Sos to look through the records in the Mage Tower about this, right?"
"Ah? You...how did you know?" The girl couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Of course I know! And I can also tell you that this Soth is not as simple as you think. Yesterday I used prophecy magic to conduct a series of detections on him, and the results showed that all the information was vague and ambiguous. Do you know what this means?" The expression on Gongfu's face suddenly became serious.
"What does it mean?"
Lirael blinked in confusion.
Although she had been exposed to arcane magic since she was six years old, which was the same age as a human baby, her learning progress was not fast due to the doting and indulgence of the archmage, and she was even a little arbitrary.
A lot of complex and boring theoretical knowledge is simply skipped.
"This means that the opponent either has a spellcasting level almost as high as mine and has blocked the detection of prophecy magic through some other spells, or he has the protection of divine power. No matter which one it is, it means that Soth is an out-and-out dangerous person. You'd better stay away from him."
Gongfu stated his conclusion directly without any concealment.
At first, he had no interest in Zuo Si who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
It was not until later that an apprentice secretly told the great wizard that his beloved daughter had been hanging around a certain man recently that he decided to investigate.
You won’t know the result until you check. Once you check, you will find that it is actually a “big fish”.
If it were any other dark elf, even if they didn't obey the warning from their elders, they would at least be on high alert.
But the problem was that Lirael had been spoiled since she was a child and was currently in her rebellious period. She immediately rolled her eyes at her father and retorted, "Don't be alarmist. Soth is not a dangerous person. He is my friend and has taught me many interesting spells and spellcasting techniques."
"He's teaching you magic?"
Gongfu was stunned when he heard the news.
You have to know that in the inherent concept of the Dark Elf Wizard, spellcasting skills will never be easily taught to anyone, let alone spells.
Because this involves a lot of habits and tactical thinking.
If too many people know about it, the enemy may use this information to plan targeted assassinations.
As she spoke, Lirael created a dazzlingly bright flash in the palm of her hand in an almost ostentatious manner.
Fortunately, Gongfu reacted quickly enough and immediately closed his eyes to avoid the strong light.
As a dark elf wizard who has lived for more than 700 years, he is not like those ordinary dark elves who may have never seen strong light in their lives and know that there are many cunning guys who will use similar means to deal with the enemy.
Among them, Drizzt's father, Zaknafein, the first warrior of Menzoberranzan, is a leader in this regard.
It is rumored that the reason why the Do'Urden family can easily kill all the high-level priestesses of the enemy family every time is because Zaknafein throws out magic props that can release dazzling light during battle.
Then, taking advantage of the target's blindness and eye pain, he killed all the high-level priestesses at lightning speed.
When the bright light disappeared, Gromph opened his eyes again and said to his daughter in a complicated tone: "Lirael, never cast such spells in public in Menzoberranzan, especially in front of Matron Trill and other high-ranking priestesses."
"Why? Didn't you teach me that when using magic in combat, I should be flexible and not be bound by any form or restrictions?" the girl asked in confusion.
"Yes, I did. But that was a life-and-death battle. The act of creating strong light through magic will arouse strong disgust from the high-level priestesses. So promise me, unless you are determined to kill the other party, you must never use this kind of spell casually. In the dark elf society, it is a taboo that cannot be easily displayed." Gongfu explained patiently.
Lirael nodded thoughtfully. "I see. Well, I think I understand. But how long will I have to go to the Spider Academy to attend classes? Every time Madam Trill talks about the teachings of Queen Lolth, I can't help yawning and want to sleep."
"I'm sorry, dear, I really can't help you with this matter. Because according to the tradition of the Baenre family, all women must go to the Spider Academy to receive priest education until they grow into a qualified high-level priestess." Gromfu spread his hands with a helpless look.
"But it was you who led me onto the path of arcane magic! The knowledge you taught me has made it impossible for me to become a priest now. If I continue like this, I feel that I will be exposed sooner or later." Lirael roared madly.
“放松,我的孩子,情况没有你想象中那么糟糕。你天生就应该是一名法师,这一点从我看到你那一刻就知道了。但崔尔主母毕竟是一家之主,就连我也必须尊重她的权威。也许等再过几年,我就会找个机会跟她说你并不适合成为祭祀,到时候你就能重新回到魔法的道路上来。”贡夫伸出手轻轻抚摸着女儿的头发安慰道。
只可惜,年轻气盛的丽芮尔根本听不进去,只认为这是父亲在敷衍自己,所以立刻气呼呼的转身离开了。
等她彻底走远后,一名黑暗精灵法师这才缓缓从阴影之中走出来,恭恭敬敬向坐在椅子上的大法师鞠了一躬:“导师,我已经按照您的吩咐,在索斯和他手下佣兵居住的酒馆附近安置了六个用来监视的魔法之眼。”
贡夫脸上浮现出满意的表情:“你做得很好!最近几天给我盯紧这个人,我倒要看看他究竟是谁,又想要搞什么鬼把戏。”
……
另外一边,在魔索布莱城靠近市场平台的一栋不起眼民房内。
刚才负责给大法师送消息的密探,此刻正站在一名造型别致的黑暗精灵男性面前。
之所以说别致,是因为这家伙头戴一顶宽沿帽,并且上边还插在一根巨大的羽毛作为装饰,背后披着一件泛微光的的骚气披风,身上只有一件无袖且故意露出性感小腹肌肉的背心。
除此之外,他还佩戴者无数的戒指、项链、手镯和脚镯,哪怕是站在原地一动不动也会发出叮叮当当的响声。
这身打扮,如果放在某十一区的牛郎店,也许并不显得十分违和。
但在男性地位普遍比较地下的黑暗精灵社会,绝对是招摇的过了头。
要知道大部分黑暗精灵男性,普遍都只穿着低调且实用的衣服,并且尽可能的减少装饰,确保无论在任何时候都不会发出哪怕一丁点的响声。
因为只有如此,他们才能不让那些高阶女祭司们找到任何借口,对自己施加痛苦的鞭挞。
“贾拉索,我按照你的吩咐试过了,但贡夫显然没有上当。”密探直截了当的汇报道。
“他说了什么吗?”
衣着华丽被称之为贾拉索的黑暗精灵男性下意识皱起了眉头。
不用问也知道,他就是达耶特独立佣兵团的领导者,一名跟崔斯特一样充满传奇色彩的黑暗精灵男性。
密探不加思索的回答:“他说索斯并不是什么小麻烦,而且非常非常的危险。我觉得实在不行就放弃原本的计划吧,否则要是惹上一个强大的敌人,对于我们所有人来说都不是什么好事。”
“怎么,你怕了吗?”贾拉索抿起嘴角意味深长的问道。
密探赶忙否认道:“怕?当然不是!我只是单纯不希望招惹麻烦。你应该知道,这个叫做索斯的家伙有多厉害。他不仅拥有极高的战士等级,同时还拥有不低的奥术施法等级。几乎所有亲眼见过其战斗姿态的人,都无一例外在称赞他是个近乎完美的黑暗精灵男性。”
“可他不该杀了我们的人,而且还夺走了达耶特独立佣兵团在魔索布莱城的财产。”贾拉索眼睛里闪烁着骇人的寒光。
“也许……我们可以尝试着与他进行谈判来解决问题。”密探小声提议道。
“哼!如果你觉得这个计划可行,那就去大胆的试试吧。不过请记住,如果你死了,我可是不会为你复仇的。”
说罢,贾拉索便不再理会这名手下,带着几个蒙面人转身消失在黑暗之中。
很显然,达耶特独立佣兵团并不像外人看上去那样团结,其内部也存在着各种各样的派系跟权力争斗。
毕竟想要让一群阴险、狡诈的黑暗精灵保持忠诚,原本就是一件非常奢侈且可笑的事情。
左思之所以敢用维娜尔,究其根源并不是什么信任,而是有足够的把握在对方选择背叛自己的时候将其全部杀光一个不留。
离开民房的贾拉索并没有选择走在大街上招摇过市,而是以极快的速度穿过一条小巷,最终来到另外一栋不起眼的建筑里。
刚一进门,他就听到一个极为不悦的声音从耳边传来。
“你迟到了!”
瞬间!
一个比普通黑暗精灵男性至少健壮了一圈的身影从黑暗中走了出来。
从那强壮有力的胳膊跟大腿不难看出,这是一名非常罕见身高超过一米九的混血黑暗精灵女性。
她的父亲或者母亲至少与一方是食人魔! 是的!
你没看错!
就一个食人魔跟黑暗精灵的混血儿! 事实上,别看黑暗精灵普遍跟人类差不多,但实际上他们在身体耐受力方面要远远超过许多专家学者的想象,甚至可以做一些只有在某些十八禁游戏中才会出现的事情。
举个最简单的例子,在蜘蛛教院的毕业仪式上,首席生会与恶魔,通常是迷诱魔进行交配,然后剩下魔裔卓尔的后代,并将其视作蜘蛛女神罗丝的赐福。
众所周知,迷诱魔的身高有五米五以上,体重更是接近三吨。
而黑暗精灵女性呢?
虽然比男性稍微高大强壮一点,但通常也就在一米七到一米八之间。
试想一下,一个五米五、体重接近三吨的恐怖怪物,与一个一米七到一米八的黑暗精灵女性,那是一副怎样夸张恐怖的景象?
左思见过迷诱魔,同样也知道迷诱魔。
别的不敢说,反正换成是人类,肯定是受不了的。
可黑暗精灵女性不仅承受住了! 而且还能确保自己不会受到伤害,甚至是成功。
如此离谱的事情,整个费伦大陆估计也只有黑暗精灵能够做到了。
当然,并不是所有黑暗精灵女性都是女祭司,有资格召唤恶魔这样强大的生物跟自己。
那些平民女性为了能够生出更强壮的后代供自己驱使,往往会选择食人魔、巨魔、巨人这样的生物。
不过这些混血后代在黑暗精灵社会必然会遭到歧视跟排挤,地位也只是比奴隶略微高那么一点点。
但达耶特独立佣兵团原本就是由一群流民和失去家族庇佑落魄贵族组成的。
所以会吸纳一些异类并不值得大惊小怪。
“不好意思,我去处理了一些事情,所以稍微耽搁了一会儿。”
贾拉索显然跟这位拥有一半食人魔血统的卓尔女性很熟,直截了当走向房子中间的沙发,一屁股坐了上去,将双脚搭在桌子上。
“跟那间酒馆有关?”女人小声追问道。
贾拉索轻轻点了下头:“对,跟酒馆有关。那个叫做索斯的家伙可能会有点难对付,我需要召集更多的人手。”
“有我还不够吗?”
女人瞬间绷紧全身上下的肌肉,论起拳头碰的一下在墙壁上砸出一个大坑。
不用问也知道,她是一名拥有相当高职业等级的武僧。
也只有武僧,才能让拳头的威力达到如此夸张的程度。
“对于你的实力,我从来没有过任何怀疑。不过为了保险起见,我希望能把一些老朋友也招募进来。”贾拉索摸着下巴意味深长的说道。
“老朋友?你该不会是指……”
旁边另外一名手下似乎意识到了什么,抬起头露出惊讶无比的表情。
贾拉索立刻把一根手指按在嘴唇上做了个禁声的动作:“嘘!别说出他的名字,我可是还想给对方一个大大的惊喜呢。”
“明白了!我立刻派人用传送魔法去把他接过来。”
手下瞬间心领神会,站起身从后门离开了这栋房子。
看着贾拉索脸上洋溢的笑容,女人忍不住开口问道:“你这次是打算在魔索布莱城搞点大动作吗?”
“当然!为什么不呢?你也看到了,现在的魔索布莱城就像是一个巨大的火药桶。随着班瑞家族的衰落,不少家族都盯上了第一的宝座。相信我,在这种时候,每一个家族都会为了增强自己的实力而开出令人心动的价码。”
说着,贾拉索从旁边的柜子上拿了一瓶落满灰尘的酒瓶,拔开塞子仰起头咕咚咕咚灌了两口。
“那这个叫做索斯的家伙呢?你打算怎么对付他?”女人兴致勃勃的继续追问。
“很简单!我要用这家伙的脑袋,让那些主母们明白,达耶特独立佣兵团才是整个北幽暗地域实力最强、最值得信赖的雇佣兵。”
在说这番话的时候,贾拉索的眼睛里闪过一抹不易被察觉到的阴暗与深邃。
毫无疑问,左思的到来就像是一块石头,在这个名为魔索布莱城的水坑里溅起了阵阵涟漪。
尽管他本人并不太想掺和黑暗精灵这些乱七八糟的事情。
But unfortunately, many times, trouble will not come to you just because you don’t want trouble.
At this moment, Zuo Si was holding the book about the origin of the fungal forest and was lost in thought.
Because according to this book, the Fungal Forest, which occupies the largest area in the Northern Underdark, was actually created accidentally by Fungus Lady Zuggmoi in a battle with some unknown horrible monster.
If what the book says is true, then the fungal forest should contain evil and filthy powers from the Abyss.
But the problem is that Zuo Si did not find such a situation outside the fungal forest.
In addition, the Fungus Forest area does not exist on a map dating back more than 6,000 years.
This means that it is very likely to have been artificially created.
If he wasn't afraid of alerting the enemy, Zuo Si would have wanted to go to the Fungal Forest and talk to the mushroom people to see if they knew some secrets about this land and the whereabouts of the druid.
After all, the myconids are the kindest, friendliest creatures known in all of Faerun.
As long as they do not show excessive hostility, they will hardly attack any life.
Even when they want to eat meat, they simply follow behind people or animals, patiently waiting for the other party to be injured, old and die, and then they will walk over to pick up the corpse and eat it as food.
Yes!
The fungus people's hunting method is to use their almost infinite lifespan to consume you to death, and then pick up your corpse and eat it.
Zuo Si felt that with Angel Duxin's druid level, he must have successfully controlled the Fungal Forest, so it would be best for him not to act rashly before collecting enough intelligence.
Otherwise, if the other party runs away, or uses the power of the Lord of the Abyss to attack us, it would be a lot of fun.
You have to know that these days, it is not easy to find a great druid or even a legendary druid who is not blessed by the god of nature.
The most important and crucial first step in the entire god-making plan is to capture a living Archdruid, the higher the professional level the better.
"Menzoberranzan should be the underground city closest to the Fungal Forest. Since there is an ancient book about its origin in the Mage Tower, there must be some other scattered records. But who has these records? Maybe I should try some prophecy magic, maybe I can find some useful clues."
Thinking of this, Zuo Si stood up and began to cast various prophecy spells using the ancient book in his hand as a clue.
After a while, a very unique diamond-shaped mark appeared in front of his eyes...
