Because Yun Xiaohan was in the mission space, he could not see the announcement about the opening of the dark elf race. He could only see the belated announcement until the mission was completed or failed.
After reading the stalagmite sign and the related quest prompts and notes, Yun Xiaohan calmed down and continued walking towards the gate of Menzoberranzan.
To be honest, although Yun Xiaohan was wearing a black robe, he didn't have any confidence because it didn't fit him well. But now that the mission required him to explore Menzoberranzan, he had no other choice but to force himself.
Let's try our luck.
There were five goblin slave guards guarding the city gate. When Yun Xiaohan approached the city gate, the two goblin guards in the front and the goblin who was obviously the leader of the guards paid their scrutinizing eyes and stopped at the city gate.
There is a family crest pattern on the chest of the black robe that Yun Xiaohan is wearing. This is a vivid spider-shaped pattern. The eight legs of the spider hold eight different weapons. There is also "DN" on the back of the spider.
"abbreviation of.
Yun Xiaohan subconsciously wanted to slow down, but in the end he held back and continued to walk in unhurriedly.
"Do you want to check the Do'Urden family?" One of the goblin guards asked the goblin guard captain.
"Don't cause trouble, just check it out at ordinary times. The Do'Urden family is at war with the Deaver family now. The Do'Urden family is currently ranked tenth. If they can defeat the fourth-ranked Deever family, they will be ranked ninth.
.I don’t want to get involved in this kind of family war, and I will risk my own death.” The goblin guard captain scolded.
The goblin guard was frightened by these words and quickly moved out of the way to let Yun Xiaohan pass.
Yun Xiaohan listened to the conversation between the two goblins. Although his feet did not stop, a turmoil arose in his heart.
"Family Do'Urden! Why does Menzoberranzan sound so familiar to me? Is this referring to the plot and missions designed in "The Dark Elf Trilogy"?" Yun Xiaohan thought in his heart.
House Do'Urden is a fictional drow family in the Forgotten Realms setting of the role-playing game "Dungeons and Dragons". It was created by R.A. Salvatore in his novel "The Dark Elf Trilogy"
. first appeared in "Homeland", the first part of "The Dark Elf Trilogy".
As a game enthusiast, Yun Xiaohan has carefully read this series of books because he likes the Dungeons and Dragons (DND) series of games. Some people may also want to read the "Dark Elf Trilogy"
I don't know, but many people have heard of the name Drizzt Do'Urden.
Drizzt Do'Urden, also known as Cui Heizi and Cui Sanye by Chinese readers and players, appears as a main character in 12 books by R.A. Salvador. He may not be the most famous fantasy novel character, but
He is definitely the most famous character in the Forgotten Realms series, and the most unavoidable character among the dark elves.
Since the dark elves have appeared, and "Decision" is a fantasy online game with a Western background, it is not surprising that the Do'Urden family appears. Even Cui Heizi suddenly appeared in front of Yun Xiaohan at this time, which he could accept.
Thinking of this, Yun Xiaohan's mind became extremely excited, and his expectations for this mission also increased a lot. If he could be related to the Do'Urden family, this mission would not be simple, and it would be a key plot point.
It is even possible that this plot is adapted from the content of the novel, so Yun Xiaohan began to do his best to recall the relevant content of the novel from his own memory, and to copy it from the conversation with the two goblins just now.
If it were the content of the later parts, Yun Xiaohan might not remember it. Fortunately, as the earliest trilogy - "The Dark Elf Trilogy", Yun Xiaohan's memory is still relatively deep.
He remembered that at the beginning of the novel, the Do'Urden family was ranked tenth, and after the Do'Urden family eliminated the Deaver family, it was ranked ninth.
But later, in the increasingly fierce battle between the Do'Urden family and another family, the Do'Urden family angered the Spider Queen Lolth because Drizzt let go of the elf girl during the surface operation, so that the family priest could not cast
Divine magic.
In order to save the situation, Malice Do'Urden, Cui Heizi's biological mother, prepared to sacrifice Drizzt to the Spider Queen. However, Drizzt's father Zaknavan, for the sake of his son's pure heart, sacrificed Drizzt to the Spider Queen.
Determined to exchange his own life for Drizzt's and make a sacrifice in Drizzt's place.
The dark elves are a matriarchal society. Zaknavan is just one of the many serving fathers, which is equivalent to one of the harem groups. The relationship between Zaknavan and Drizzt is also relatively complicated. They are friends and masters and disciples even more than father and son.
A little more, because children are usually taken care of by their sisters, and even some dark elf fathers may not know that they have children, because they don't know whose child the family mistress is carrying.
On the eve of the war, Drizzt learned of his father's death and decided to leave this evil dark elf society.
The two goblins just mentioned that the Do'Urden family and the Deaver family were at war, so it can be confirmed that it was at the beginning of the novel.
Recalling this, Yun Xiaohan immediately remembered another important link. The Dark Elf family has the tradition of sacrificing the third son of the family to Rose, the Spider Goddess, and Drizzt is Malice.
Do'Urden's third son.
Drizzt was born when the Do'Urden family defeated the Deaver family. As soon as he was born, Drizzt's sister wanted to kill him, but this time things changed. Drizzt's eldest brother was killed by his second brother.
He was stabbed to death in the back, so Drizzt was no longer the third boy alive and did not need to be killed as a sacrifice. He narrowly escaped death.
Now that the Deaver family has not been destroyed, Drizzt has naturally not been born yet. It seems that Yun Xiaohan has the opportunity to witness the birth of Drizzt with his own eyes.
Yun Xiaohan was a little excited when he thought of this. At this time, he had successfully entered the city. After entering the city, he was much safer. On the one hand, he could be considered a member of the family. On the other hand, there were also human slaves and human freedoms in the Dark Territory.
There are even human mages operating in the Underdark.
But this does not mean that Yun Xiaohan can sit back and relax. If he gives up his identity as the Do'Urden family, that is, throws away the black robe, it will be safer. He can find any family to join, and he will still be very popular with his strength.
Yes, maybe players can get related items and skill rewards by doing things for the Dark Elf family.
The dark elves hate the surface elves the most, but they don’t hate humans very much. Of course, the dark elves are only about strength. If you are not strong enough, they will be happy to capture you as a slave, but if you are strong enough, they will
I don't want to lose both sides.
But how could Yun Xiaohan be willing to give up his identity as the Do'Urden family? If he gave up this identity, he would not be able to witness the birth of Drizzt, and he would probably miss an important plot. But after all, he did not really join the Do'Urden family.
Sneaking into House Do'Urden is obviously very risky.
