The display effect of [Powerful Chain Lightning] is obviously excellent. It can bounce up to 15 people, has a paralysis effect, and only has a chanting time of 1 second. The most important thing is that this is an electric spell. Dark elves are electric spells.
It will damage the physical constitution, and the strong light effect of the electric skills will also blind the dark elves.
Even the damage effects of skills that they didn't care much about before were very satisfying to the Do'Urden family, not to mention the powerful additional effects of [Powerful Chain Lightning]. Mother Malice and others were full of praise. Originally, they
They took Yun Xiaohan seriously. After this, they raised Yun Xiaohan's threat level to another level in their hearts.
But that's not what Yun Xiaohan is concerned about. What he cares about is the effect of increasing the success rate of learning. Since the people of the Do'Urden family couldn't be more satisfied, he received a reminder - Drizzt's spell skills were successfully learned.
The probability of obtaining the highest 50% additional bonus. For example, a certain skill, Drizzt, can be learned with a 50% probability, and now it is 75%. This is undoubtedly very good news, and means that Drizzt can achieve better growth.
.
The next step is to agree on a trading location. Mother Malice decided to trade here and will arrange for people to seal off the small area at the bottom of the stepped tunnel and build a small field training camp here.
This is originally the area controlled by the Do'Urden family, so it is easier to arrange and prevent other families from interfering. In this way, it can not only provide cover for the transaction, but also provide a training base for Yun Xiaohan and Drizzt.
Ensuring that the silver mine is not discovered is killing three birds with one stone.
Because Drizzt would not be 3 years old until six days later, the nominal custody rights and actual education rights would not be officially transferred to Yun Xiaohan until then. Therefore, Yun Xiaohan only had to come back once every three days to meet with the Do'Urden family.
Just conduct your first smuggling trade.
At this point, Drizzt's plot comes to an end, and Yun Xiaohan leaves the Underdark and returns to the mine.
Without the burden of Drizzt, Yun Xiaohan naturally no longer waited for the reinforcements who did not know when they would arrive, and directly chose to break through. Although there were many enemies and several high-level NPCs, Yun Xiaohan still successfully broke through.
overcame the enemy's pursuit and interception.
After leaving the mine area, Yun Xiaohan left the independent mission space. He immediately contacted Liya with the mysterious sapphire, and was directly summoned by her.
At this time, Liya had already learned the news about the silver mine and the Underdark from Tina. After Yun Xiaohan came over, he explained the situation a little bit, but only talked about the agreement he had reached with the Do'Urden family about the silver mine.
Liya had no idea about Drizzt's agreement with the smuggling trade, so she naturally didn't ask, and Yun Xiaohan didn't say anything either.
Liya still agreed with this agreement. Although Yun Xiaohan's act of cutting off the deal first and then paying it forward was a serious breach of authority, who made Liya have enough trust in Yun Xiaohan? Besides, giving 10% of the profits to appease the dark elves was a good deal.
As for the smuggling trade, Liya also decided to turn a blind eye. Even though Liya has elf blood, she does not regard herself as an elf. Moreover, she is more practical and open-minded. She is not interested in this kind of thing that has continued for thousands of years.
Years of racial hatred don't matter.
However, as a member of the royal family and the Duke of Sardinia, Yun Xiaohan could do this kind of smuggling trade, but she couldn't. But then again, she didn't care much about it. The Do'Urden family was too powerful for Yun Xiaohan.
It is very strong, but to Liya, it is just a small family. The smuggling profits brought by this trade are obviously not worthwhile compared to the risks she has to bear when smuggling with the dark elves.
While Yun Xiaohan was running for Drizzt in the Underdark, Liya was not idle either. She had just assembled and prepared an elite army of 5,000 people, and handed it over to Rosie Pie to lead
, just wait for Liya’s order to get on the boat and set off.
But before that, Liya still needs to meet Balgruuf. As the person involved and the revealer of the haunted mine, Yun Xiaohan naturally has to take a boat with Liya to Snowman City.
After arriving in Snowrun City and meeting Balgruuf, Yun Xiaohan briefly recounted what he saw about the silver mines and the Underdark, and then Liya and Balgruuf began to negotiate.
The evidence that the Lord of Ivas deliberately blocked the news, concealed his allegiance to the lord and the country he belonged to, and tried to embezzle the silver mines was conclusive, and Balgruuf was not allowed to defend him. Of course, Balgruuf was the most angry person.
I didn't even think about defending him. In the eyes of Balgruuf and Liya, the Lord of Ivas City was already a dead man.
Now is the time of war. Liya is the highest official in the entire southern region, and Balgruuf is also the actual controller of the Xueman City area. It can be said that one of these two people is the direct boss of the Lord of Ivas City, and the other is the boss's boss.
Whether it is Balgruuf as his lord, or Liya, the highest regional governor, they have the right to directly deal with him in wartime. Although he cannot be executed publicly, nor can he be deprived of his noble status, Liya can find him at will.
Capture him for cowardice or incompetence in combat, and secretly kill him. Then Balgruuf, as the lord, can take back the city of Ivas.
Therefore, there is no need to consider how to deal with the Lord of Ivas City. We can just press the troops over later to prevent him from jumping over the wall in a hurry, and then we can easily deal with him. What really needs Liya and Balgruuf to consider and negotiate is whether the silver mine is
Report, how to distribute the benefits, and how to deal with Ivas City.
The two sides began to negotiate, and soon Liya gained a clear upper hand.
There are four main reasons for achieving such a huge advantage:
The first is that Liya is stronger and more powerful. Liya is so domineering in negotiations. This is the first time that Yun Xiaohan has seen Liya like this. I have never noticed that Liya's negotiation ability and aura are so good before.
Strong.
The second is that Balgruuf himself does not have much confidence. As the lord of the Lord of Ivas City, he must be jointly and severally responsible for what the Lord of Ivas City did, so he will lose a lot of points. If Liya wants to investigate and report it, Balgruuf
It's going to be bad luck. Although there may not be any big losses, it is still possible to be convicted or even confiscate one or two territories. In this case, how can Balgruuf dare to compete with Liya for interests?
The third is Liya's identity. Whether it is the identity of the highest regional governor or the identity of the emperor's favored daughter, these two people have an idea with the master of Ivas City. They do not want to take away the silver mine.
Report.
After the silver mine is reported, half of the profits must be handed over to the country, and the prince will receive 30%. The local lords can only receive 20% of it. But half of the profits turned over to the country are not all given to the emperor. The entire bureaucracy and even some large officials
The nobles all had to take a share of the pie, so only 10% or 15% could actually fall into the hands of the emperor, which was pitiful.
Therefore, if more benefits can be obtained, even if the emperor knows about it, he will support Liya in not reporting it, and even help her block the news.
The fourth is the issue of the disposal of Ivas City. Because it is wartime, after Ivas City is taken back, Liya, as the highest commander of the war zone, can intervene in the ownership of Ivas City if she is willing, and can even appoint a
The new city lord, then Balgruuf will suffer a big loss, and he naturally doesn't want to do this.
