I can't be an NPC

Chapter 248 Provocation
Relying on the lingua franca of the underground world that he had learned in less than a day, Li Wen roughly knew some of the rules of the underground world... or the local conditions and customs.

The drow's Menzoberranzan is a well-known faction in the Underworld, but it is not the only one.

In addition to them, the dwarves' Greckostug, the dwarves' Blingdenstone, and the black lake, a large underground trading place, are all well-known forces.

In addition, there are many small tribal forms of various strange races living in corners that are difficult to know.

Sufficient air, food like fungi and mushrooms in the ground, abundant and clean underground waterways...the existence of these things can easily support a population comparable to that of the above-ground world.

As for more... The underground world is huge, so big that it is even the same as the surface world, but it is far inferior in terms of circulation.

Therefore, Kardashian can find the records of the entire underground world's cognition in the books that can be circulated at will.

Of course, the underground world that is too far away has nothing to do with Li Wen. On the premise of satisfying a certain curiosity, Li Wen didn't pay much attention to it.

He cared more about this drow city called Menzoberranzan.

There are at least hundreds of drow families in Menzoberranzan City, and the leader of each family must be the priest of Rose, the Spider Queen.

That is the mistress.

In other words, there are at least several hundred mistresses in Menzoberranzan City.

Just like those demon lords in the abyss, when there are too many people, there will inevitably be a situation of good and bad.

The eight strongest drow families controlled almost all the right to speak in the city, while the remaining small families fought with each other to grab the little scraps that flowed from their fingers.

Of course, people's hearts are the same everywhere.

This system will not last long without a visible system of advancement or the possibility of a possible advancement in class status.

Therefore, the position of the eight drow families is not absolute.

Under certain competitive conditions, even a small family at a low level may reach a high position.

And the one who can finally judge and preside over all of this is a place called Brecher's Step not far outside the city.

There exists an organization above all drow, it is above all drow, and it is called the academy.

This is the only designated place to enshrine Rose, the Queen of the Spider, and it was appointed by the Queen Rose... God.

At the same time, it is also the place where Menzoberranzan trained all the priestesses and mages in the city, which is of great significance.

Those elders who vowed to serve Rose, the Queen of the Spiders for life, are the supreme beings of Menzoberranzan who can preside over and even change the rules of the city.

So...the way for an outsider to obtain that knowledge is to gain their approval, right?
The more Li Wen thought about it, the more he felt it was possible.

"Master Poppy? May I come in?"

Kardashian's voice suddenly came from the door.

"no problem."

Li Wen responded immediately.

Only then did Kardashian's figure appear from behind the stone wall, and walked in under the warm candlelight.

"Master Bobby, in a few days it will be the day when we will participate in the city competition. As long as we can defeat other opponents in the competition, what you want will be obtained."

Since competition among drow families is allowed in Menzoberranzan City, there will naturally be some kind of positive guidance to prevent endless internal friction.

Competition that does not bring benefits to the city is meaningless.

The Dabi in Kardashian's mouth is precisely an external invasion activity initiated by their drow elves.

Simply put, it is an aggressive act of plundering people and slaves.

The target of the aggression is the gnomes.

Those dwarves are not too powerful, and their personalities are not of a vicious type. They are easy to control and are most suitable for slaves.

This is what Li Wen can see in the book that Kardashian brought over.

So it wasn't too surprising to hear that.

"I'll be with you when the time comes."

Of course, Li Wen is not out of kindness, nor is he helping the evildoers.

I just want to follow along. This is the underground world, and it has its own set of rules. It's unrealistic for an outsider to say that he wants to change the cornerstone of others' existence.

Under the possible conditions, it is more practical to ensure that the Kardashian faction wins the game so that they can get what they want.

Kardashian smiled softly at Li Wen, there was no trace of evil on her charming face.

"We'll do our best to win."

"Hmm~"

Li Wen responded softly, and once again turned his gaze to the book in front of him.

Seeing this, Kardashian wisely planned to step down.

"Then I'll train them first."

At this moment, there was a sudden noise from the lower floor of the stone building, especially the loud voices of Kardashian's subordinates.

"What are you doing?"

"What do you want to do!"

"This is the place of our mistress, you can't come in casually!"

Hearing this kind of movement, Kardashian frowned slightly and ran down in a hurry.

Li Wen followed closely, wanting to watch the excitement.

On the first floor, two slender drows were among a group of strong men of different races, but there was no trace of fear on their faces.

This is the city of drow, and no foreign race dares to offend even the most ordinary drow in this city, which will be regarded as a provocation to the entire drow group.

Therefore, Kardashian's alien macho men just surrounded the other two, trying to use their bodies to block the actions of the two drows.

"what happened?"

Kardashian's voice made the hunks subconsciously part ways.

Li Wen followed behind Kardashian, and immediately saw the drow named Quiliana that he met yesterday when he entered the city.

After learning the underground lingua franca, Li Wen's superb memory level completely reproduced all the conversations he had heard before, allowing him to know all the things that happened before.

It's just that the drow who was provoking Kardashian yesterday was obediently following the other drow.

Standing in front of him looking at people with his nostrils, Zall commanded Kardashian in a cold and arrogant tone.

"You don't have to participate in the competition in three days' time."

Kardashian remained expressionless, "Why?"

"Why? There is no reason. This is a competition between families. What does it have to do with you?"

Kardashian replied coldly: "Is my family not considered a family?"

"The household registration is your family?"

The other party sneered, "Anyway, I just came to convey a message to you. Our mistress doesn't want to see you in the game three days later...and your rubbish! Otherwise, be careful of unimaginable consequences. Hmph! "

After speaking, the other party turned and left.

The drow elf named Quiliana who was following her did not follow up immediately, but took two steps forward and approached Kardashian.

Let those alien hunks subconsciously press forward, trying to intimidate the drow of the hostile faction with their aura.

Kardashian reached out to stop their behavior, so the other party was close enough to Kardashian.

Protruding her neck slightly, the other party's slightly taller than Kardashian made her easily put her mouth close to Kardashian's earlobe.

The words were cold and threatening.

"Don't listen to advice... Otherwise, you will die."

A cold light flashed in Kardashian's eyes, "What do you mean?"

"Do you think it's a coincidence that Yeguno appeared there?"

After finishing speaking so softly, Guilena stepped back slightly, almost smiling contemptuously close to Kardashian's face, "The consequences... are at your own risk."

After she also left, the interracial hunks around Kardashian were excited.

"Participate! Why not participate! Who does she think she is?"

"That's right! Isn't it because they are afraid that we won't be able to beat us! They even came over to threaten us! The academy didn't say anything, so why should they order us?"

Kardashian looked troubled.

However, it seemed that from the corner of the eye he saw Li Wen behind him, and he gritted his teeth fiercely, "It doesn't matter what they do, we will participate, you guys continue to train, don't relax."

Kardashian's courage made these alien subordinates excited.

"Yes!"

Back upstairs, Li Wen took the initiative to ask.

"It looks troublesome."

Kardashian smiled helplessly.

"After all...I'm not the same as them."

Of course not.

The mistress of the family is naturally the most important and core existence. Without the mistress who is the priest of Rose, there is no such thing as a family.

So there is a mistress, there is a family, this is a hard condition.

And under the mistress, are the so-called high-level personnel, usually the direct blood relatives of the mistress.

Below them are the middle-level personnel, generally the drow of other small families who are weaker and have no priests of Rose in their families.

As for the lowest status in a family, it is a foreign race, whether it is a thug of a foreign race or a slave of a foreign race.

Perhaps thugs seem a bit nobler than slaves, but in the eyes of the serious Drow, all of them are slaves if they are not Drow's.

These are the unspoken rules in the invisible, everyone is like this.

Only Kardashian is special.

In her family, only she, the mistress, is a drow, and the others are all aliens.

To other drow, she is heretic.

"So why do you have to use a foreign race?"

Li Wen asked curiously.

Judging from what he read in the book, the number of the drow group is not too large, but it is not too small, and every priest who can be recognized by Rose is quite rare.

As long as Kardashian thinks, there should be many small drow families who don't have Rose to worship, and they won't be alone.

"Maybe it's because...you're used to it."

Kardashian lightly brushed the curly hair next to her ears, "At first I also had some drows here, but I thought that those families have accumulated for many years, so it's not like me, an ordinary drow, can catch up with them after a short period of development. So I found another way and thought of using those powerful but unrecognized alien races."

"Sure enough... when everyone is unwilling to accept and recognize them, as soon as I offer them an olive branch, many foreigners come to join them."

There are many subordinates, strong strength, and one mind, but the name is not right, which is why Kardashian is so hostile to other drows.

"But when there are more alien races, other drow are unwilling to accept the kind of discrimination they receive when working with alien races. Alien races and compatriots... I can only choose one."

"You chose a foreign race."

Kardashian smiled wryly, "I can't help it, it's been a long time, and I've been watching them... There's always feelings."

"Then what should we do now?"

"It's okay...Since you said you want to participate, you must participate. I will train them well."

Li Wen thought about it and said.

"Maybe... I can help a little."
