Before ascending to God, be a good lord

On the outskirts of the city of Solandel in the southeastern kingdom, the ordinary-looking middle-aged man Horn Drizzt and the notorious pirate Jack were walking side by side on the path. Due to the earlier storm and pirate attacks, the entire road was completely invisible. To the figure.

"Are you satisfied now? Your current body is that of a pirate at the level of a Sky Knight, and it is also a terrifying existence on the entire ocean." Horn said to "Jack" beside him, "You'd better get used to his body quickly. and memory, and then stay away from me and bring trouble to his subordinates."

"From now on, just call me Jack. Since you do it, you have to do it in full, so as not to be discovered by those nasty magicians." He looked like a pirate, but in fact his body was taken over by a high-level priest of an ancient god. "Jack" smiled and said, "Also, you really want to drive me away?"

Horn said unabashedly: "It's better for you to stay away from me. I'm going back to the Demon Town. There are many people there, so they must know you, Jack the Red Beard."

"You guy," Jack (Toth) grinned at a terrifying angle, and his only remaining eyes were fixed on Horn, "When it comes to playing tricks on people's hearts, you are the best. You can actually trick those witches. After that, you shamelessly asked them to take you in!"

"So what? At that time, I did keep that Ioni away from the conspiracy of the Galloping Horse family, and I also told her the secret of Susie Lanyuan... I deserve their hospitality now... at least I will make it up to them in the future." Speaking of being taken in by the demons in the southeast, Horn obviously felt a little sorry.

"Hehe, you also have bad feelings sometimes," Jack said with a smile, "but you still can't find Ione, right? She is probably protected by a certain god."

"That's okay, and it won't delay my stay here." Horn said with a smile, "On the contrary, it's you. Your soul originally offended that Lant Galloping Horse, and now the body you found has also offended him. You have offended him to death.

If I were you, I would settle down for hundreds of years, and wait until your good daughter has forgotten you, and then..."

Jack (Toth) shook his head: "I don't have that time. I can feel His Majesty calling me. I want to let Him return to the Kingdom of God that belongs to Him as soon as possible!"

Horn sneered and prayed for three seconds in his heart for this old friend who didn't know whether to live or die. "I wish you luck, I'm coming."

While talking, the two walked outside the gate of a small town. This was the largest gathering place of demons in the Southeast Kingdom - the town of Mozi River.

The town is not large in area. Except for the Viscount Castle outside the town, the entire town is surrounded by a towering wooden wall.

When the two were about to enter the town gate, Horn suddenly stopped.

"No! There's danger here!" Horn whispered, "Go! Get out of here immediately!"

"What do you mean?" Jack still didn't understand what Horn meant.

"Leave quickly! Don't ask me why!"

……

Although the Meuse River town is nominally under the jurisdiction of the second prince of the Southeast Kingdom, the owner of the Viscount Castle, in fact, everything in the town is controlled by the mayor's courtyard in the center of the town.

The small courtyard is not large in area, but its configuration is no less than that of any noble mansion. Even the height of the tower is only slightly shorter than the one in the Viscount Castle.

Now in the mayor's room, the three old men were looking cautiously at Lant, who was looking through the town's resident list behind the desk.

"His Majesty King Lant, we live here with the approval of the God Emperor..."

The old man standing in the center said carefully. Under his dark skin, there was a faint golden light. A pair of half-meter-long curved horns on his forehead had gradually turned into magic crystals. On his long goat's beard, there were several dozen... Demon Pattern Knot, under a large devil pattern robe, there is a pair of recurved goat hooves.

Not only him, but the two old men beside him are also comparable in appearance to him.

"Since His Majesty has approved you to live here, you should cherish the good days in front of you," Lant didn't even raise his eyes to look at the others, but just said to himself, "Don't challenge your Majesty's authority, especially the magic network. Yes, you think so?" Both Lant and the old man understood that the town in front of them was the place where the empire specially placed the descendants of the demon clan. After the demon clan's failed invasion 300 years ago, almost every noble family had someone with demon clan blood. Descendants.

These descendants chose the former between humans and demons, and many of them even made military exploits for the empire, so it was impossible for them to disappear from the empire overnight.

Therefore, the empire concentrated these descendants in places such as the southeast and south where the density of magic furnaces was relatively low, reducing the probability of their descendants' bloodline activation and high-level breakthrough probability, in an attempt to slowly eliminate them over time.

However, even so, the demons cannot come to the fore in the empire. Even though the three old men have reached the peak of high-level and have the title of imperial viscount, they are still at a complete disadvantage in the face of the threat of Lant. .

The old man's face twitched, and he could only say bravely: "Your Majesty Lant, no, the noble magic furnace caster, as far as I know, Ioni accepted the invitation of a certain witch from Dragon Tooth City, They were involved in an assassination attempt on Marquis Duma Feilong, but the person who invited me made it clear that their fate is in the hands of one of your subordinates."

"Yes, I know," Rant nodded, "So she is now the priest of His Majesty Lucia, the God of Life. Neither I nor His Majesty Lucia think she should be punished in any way. But what I said, It’s you who shouldn’t get involved in the war between the dragons and the ocean.”

"us……"

"Didn't you reveal the name Susie Lanyuan to Fiat?" Lanter's voice gradually became colder, "And those evil ways of the front office, are you supporting them? Those demons that inspire the body and soul The medicine is both the method of the demon clan and the demon fish collected from the sea. Who else can make it besides you?"

"His Majesty……"

"Reply after you think about it. Even if you have the protection of the empire, it doesn't mean that everything can be done by you, such as the one in the basement of this house..." Lant made a mouth shape of "magic furnace".

"Your Majesty, you cannot..."

Before the old people could finish speaking, a space rift was opened, and the legendary mage Klein walked out.

"Your Excellency, please follow Lant..." Before the old man could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Klein.

"You all get out."

Legend waved his hand, and the demons present finally breathed a sigh of relief and quickly ran out of the room, leaving only Lant and Klein facing each other.

"I thought His Excellency Angzang would come here in person, after all, he likes to find trouble with me so much." Lant said with a shrug.

Angzang Zhuoqin has been in the Southeast Kingdom for hundreds of years, and the town of Mezi River is where he actually lives. The demons here were even Angzang's subordinates as early as the Inquisition era. At that time, Angzang relied on these subordinates to successfully solve many cases of nobles colluding with demons.

However, whether it is Lant today or Angzang Zhuoqin back then, it is difficult to tell clearly how many of those demon-tong cases were fishing and law enforcement, and how many were legal proceedings.

Once Lant brought the case from hundreds of years ago to the Grand Council, it would inevitably cause the entire parliament to question the royal family, so Klein came to deal with Lant personally.

Klein looked at Lant. He knew that as early as when the witch in the Three-tailed Fish Bar received the assassination order, Lant's purpose was to kill two birds with one stone, that is, to use an assassination to involve the Southeast Kingdom and the Palace Division at the same time. Sexually blocking the two families from infiltrating the Benma Plain and Hindu Kerr, it was only because of Poseidon's personal intervention that they came here to cause trouble today.

Looking at Lant who was determined to win in front of him, Klein sighed and said: "Ang Zang will no longer care about things south of Dragon Tooth City in the future. All the spies in front of the palace cannot go to the Galloping Horse Plains. Are you satisfied now?"

"make a deal!"
