The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 163 Five Creator Races

At this time, William was convinced that Alastrio was up to no good, and this girl was trying to get the gold coins on her, but a batch of 10,000+ magic gold coins, although it was a huge sum of money for ordinary people, But for the city lord of Silvermoon City, it shouldn't be like this. Could it be that she still has lingering hatred for the Moon Bridge matter?
Thinking that William didn't want to stay here any longer, he rolled his eyes and said, "I'm very sorry, ma'am! I don't think I can afford your things. If there's nothing else, I'm leaving." He turned around We are about to go outside.

"Wait, William, why don't you go to the stables first, Pegasus is a very precious mount, don't you want to own one?" Erasto not only refused to admit it when he saw William, but even left In short, I can't sit still.

William shook his head in pretending embarrassment and smiled wryly: "Of course I do, but unfortunately I don't have that much money, so I can only watch it greedily. It's better not to see it." At this moment, William is very demeanor , an absolute actor-level performance, but unfortunately the woman in front of him is a guy who knows everything. William's pretentiousness is destined to be in vain.

William's sentence of "no money" directly blocked all the little calculations of Alastriol, and she decided to show her face directly: "Okay William, there is no need to act anymore. As the two most important people in the Northland The city, Silvermoon City, and Mirabar are inextricably linked. We all know your origin and what you did in Mirabar. When you left the city of mines, the female consul Santilla Xingyao I once gave you a batch of magic gold coins to keep, I am right."

William sneered: "Whatever you say, I just don't have any messy magic gold coins, what can you do to me!"

Alaszhuo sighed, and said in a low voice: "If you refuse to admit it, no one can do anything to you. But this batch of magic gold coins is extremely important, and the news has already begun to leak." Then she started talking Turn, "William, I heard that Santilla seems to be eight or nine months pregnant, and may be due to give birth in a month or two, but there is no accurate conclusion on who the father of the child is."

Hearing this, William's heart couldn't help trembling, his eyes flashed fiercely, and he half-closed his eyelids and said in a sinister voice: "What do you say has anything to do with me, do you want to use this to threaten me?" Speaking of William's consciousness Already poking into the space ring on the left middle finger, Qiu Shui Broken Dream is about to drink blood.

Elastra didn't seem to notice the change in William's demeanor, and said with a chuckle: "Don't worry! Anyway, Santilla is also a student of Laila, and I, Elastra, are not so despicable, to threaten a little Girl. It’s just that some people have started to become suspicious now, Santilla is pregnant now, I’m afraid it will be unbearable.”

William temporarily stopped his killing intent, but he did not relax his guard. He still squinted his eyes and said coldly: "Oh! So what, kill those harassers?"

Elastra shook his head and said: "Many times killing can't solve the problem. William, the only way now is to divert the attention of those people and let them understand that the treasures are not in Santilla's hands. Can you Understand?"

William continued to sneer and said, "To draw those people's attention away, you have to teach me what to do. You can't just go out and shout 'the money is in my hands', right? Or give it to you and let you be a The target attracts attention?"

"Hehe, this batch of magic gold coins is too hot to handle. I can't swallow it by myself, and I can't swallow it. But we can take this opportunity to make a show, which is enough to confuse the public." With a confident appearance, it seems that he has already made up his mind.

William opened his eyes and said with great interest: "Oh! Tell me, how do you do a trick?"

Elastra said solemnly: "William, before explaining the plan, there is one thing you need to understand first, the real value of the gold coins in your hand. The magic gold coins that most people call are created by the ancient king of Netheril. The circulation items made by the alchemists of the Empire era have various valuable functions in many aspects due to the particularity of the formula. For example, adding magic gold coins when smelting weapons can make the long sword stronger and sharper. Unfortunately, such gold coins are now The production technology has been lost."

"But most people don't know that there was a magic gold coin before Netheril, it was a treasure made by the first powerful race, the first generation of creator race that existed for an unknown number of years. "

Speaking of this, I have to explain the creator race. In the long history, many high-intelligence races have arisen on the land of Toril. After countless generations, these races have been alienated for various reasons. , or migration, or decline, or extinction, and finally became the pattern of the various races on the land of Faerun today.Today's scholars refer to the five strongest races in history as creator races, and these five races are lizards, dragons, shapeshifters, elves and humans.

The lizard race was the first and in fact the most powerful creator race. Scholars believe that they established a vast but short-lived civilization. Most of the survivors evolved into naga, lizard people, cavemen or other creatures. In fact, very few beings who know the truth understand that this statement is false.

It is generally believed that the most advanced of the creator races are the dragons, who have great power and can plunder the cities and gathering points of other races with impunity.Dragons rule the surface world, controlling vast territories, and they fight for territory, mates, and status.Only when some lower races such as humans, elves, dwarves, etc. mastered the power of magic, these huge creatures suffered some hardships, but until now the dragon is still the most powerful race among surface creatures.

It is said that the doppelganger race evolved from an aquatic creature. They evolved into amphibious creatures at the end of the lizard civilization. They set foot on land and established their own civilization. They are one of the direct reasons for the decline of the lizard civilization.

One of the least known creator races, the Goblins are forest dwellers who live in forests and other wooded areas, living in harmony with nature and leaving little information to the outside world.It is believed that the civilization of the goblins was destroyed by a plague caused by dragons or demonic powers, and their descendants are now goblins and other fey creatures living in the jungle.

The last created race, and the race that has lived in the primitive state for the longest time——human beings, as long as the environment permits, human beings can continue to create miracles with incredible speed and efficiency by virtue of their strong adaptability and flexibility .Scholars believe that among the five creator races, only human beings have maintained a continuous civilization.

In fact, most of the cognitions of scholars are basically wrong, and the truth is always in the hands of a few people, or in the hands of the gods.
