Chapter 898 Speculation
After only one night, the whole port of Carlin fell into unprecedented chaos, first in the first half of the night, the two great guilds of Sharp Tooth and Night Thief started an all-out war, the streets and alleys of Xicheng District were full of corpses, blood stained the yellow sand red, it is estimated that the death toll was at least four hundred, and the tragedy was no less than the real war.
In addition to this, more than twenty nobles and merchants in the city died in their beds, including those who were about to reach the top like Hamid, and the upper class of society fell into an unprecedented panic, dragging their families to the docks to take a boat to the sea, because they were not sure if this was the precursor to another violent upheaval.
You must know that in Kalinsan, large-scale conspiracies and assassinations are often one of the manifestations of the change of power, and the next step is either to tear the skin of a few great nobles and start a real gun, or to continue to expand the scope of assassination, plus Ser Pasha, who now lives in the ornate palace complex. Lalan's position was also not very secure, so it was not surprising that the nobles and merchants had such thoughts.
No one knows, the cause of this qiΔ is just a small game of temptation between Henry and the Talisman Society, and even for them it is a little unrealistic, but for ordinary people, the sky has fallen, and tens of thousands of residents are forced to get involved, and they don't know the truth of the matter until they die.
This is the true and cruel portrayal of the Faren Continent!
Humble mortals are nothing more than pawns, toys, and consumables β to pass the time in the eyes of powerful spellcasters, and sometimes even the so-called lord of a kingdom is only a slightly expensive ornament, and in the area of the Fallen Star Sea, a legendary mage can shake hands and make peace between two rival nations with even a single letter.
With the Guild War in full swing. Henry began to reach out to the little bosses who were dissatisfied with his boss. And give some help to those who are willing to form an alliance. Let them raise their status as much as possible so that they can control a part of the situation after the death of the guild leader, and in just one day, seven people expressed their willingness to cooperate.
Just as he was lying on the couch in his office, about to check the list that Wahid had just sent over, the old mage Eric hurriedly barged in and shouted, "Boss! Just now, a mage contacted me using the "teleportation technique", and somehow asked me to ask if your agreement is still valid? β
"Agreements?" Henry hesitated slightly, but quickly realized that it must be Nurman who learned of Hamid's death, and a playful smile crossed his face for an instant. "I know what's going on. The agreement is still valid, and I will ensure that their interests are not violated. β
Although the old mage had only joined the guild a few days earlier, it was not difficult for the big guilds in the city to find out his origin and name.
It seems that the leader of the camel guild is very cautious, and after finding out that something happened, he came to confirm whether the plan could still be carried out smoothly, and he was really good at playing conspiracy, but he obviously didn't know that he had already been blacklisted.
"Understood, I'll go and give the other party an answer."
Eric owed slightly. He turned around and walked towards the door. He knew very well that his time in the guild was too short to be close enough to access secrets. So I didn't even bother to ask the reason, anyway, I did what I was told to do.
After seeing the old mage leave, Henry raised his head and asked Arcanis who was sitting opposite him with a smile: "Now that we have the absolute initiative, how do you think Gimana will fight back?" β
The legendary thief rolled his eyes and replied helplessly, "How do I know." Isn't this kind of brain-wielding thing always in charge of you......"
"But I think it's strange now, ten hours have passed since last night's head-on confrontation, and the other party hasn't even made any moves, as if he has completely given up on the guild. Normally, the Lord of the Runes attaches great importance to his intelligence network, and the current situation is definitely not normal. As he spoke, Henry jumped up from the couch and began to ponder over the floor plan of Port Carlin hanging on the wall.
He couldn't understand what the Talisman Masters were doing now, could it be that the other party was brewing some earth-shattering plan?
"Wouldn't it be better to have no action? Maybe after we finish integrating the underworld, the Talisman Society will come to the door to negotiate, and as long as we grasp the scale, we will definitely be able to take advantage of it. β
Arcanis felt that it was best for the other party not to interfere, after all, high-level mages have a very terrifying advantage over melee professionals, and he didn't want to clash head-on with legendary mages, otherwise Artemis was still locked up in the dungeon. Ntreili is the best example of this.
The advantage of thieves is stealth, assassination and trapping, although they can also fight in close combat with their sensitive reflex nerves, but they are far worse than fighters of the same level, because strength is always the most powerful weapon in close combat, and the so-called one force down ten will not be said to be fun.
As a legendary thief, Arcanis has long understood the strengths and weaknesses of his class, so he knows how to get the most out of it, and he will never go head-to-head with anyone unless he has to.
After staring at the map for a long time, Henry didn't find even the slightest clue, so he sat back on the sofa with a frown, and said after a few minutes: "No, this matter is definitely not that simple, I suspect that the Talisman Society is not moving on the surface, maybe it is secretly investigating our background information." According to their usual caution, I am afraid that there will be no action until they find out. β
"You mean to say...... Will these undead spellcasters let us integrate the underground forces of Port Carlin? Arcanis asked, standing up in surprise.
Henry nodded solemnly: "Almost, according to the efficiency of the Talisman Society." We should have three days to a week or so, so we have to move quickly, you make another trip to the Camel Guild tonight and kill McJid, so that the Camel Guild will definitely be tempted to attack immediately, and all we have to do is to report to the Black Sails Guild and let them fight to lose. β
"No problem, I'll leave after dark to make sure that the underground war is in full swing before midnight. Now I'm going to catch up on some sleep and see you in the evening. With that, Arcanis stood up and walked towards the place where he was resting.
It was a busy night last night. He's a little tired now. In order to ensure that the action at night does not go wrong. A good night's sleep is essential.
No sooner had the legendary thief left than Eric returned. He didn't have any nonsense, he directly put a note on the table, lowered his voice and said, "Boss, this is sent by the person who sent the message just now with a raven, I promise I haven't read a word." β
"Hmm...... I believe you. Henry smiled and glanced at the old mage, then opened the wax seal, only to see that there were only four words written on it: Four o'clock in the morning!
Obviously. This is the information sent by Nurman, he doesn't need to ask to know that it is definitely the time for the Camel Guild to attack, he didn't expect the sand thieves to be so impatient, Sharp Tooth and the Night Thieves have only been fighting for a day, and these guys can't wait to do it.
Without any hesitation, Henry threw the note directly on the table, smiled sinisterly, raised his head and said to the anxious old mage, "I'll give you a task to send this note to the Black Sails Guild." Remember, no matter what the other person asks. All you need to do is say I don't know. β
"Yes, I'll do it right away."
Eric bowed slightly. At the same time, he secretly slandered himself that he didn't know anything, so why bother to tell him again. However, he didn't have the courage to challenge the authority of the guild leader, so he obediently left the headquarters with the note and walked in the direction of the docks.
Seeing that the plan was developing in the direction he wanted, Henry couldn't help but relax a little and waved at the female warrior standing aside.
Carol did not dare to disobey the master's order, obediently came to the front, took off the breastplate, put on cool (underwear), and reluctantly massaged hard, judging from the proficiency of Cheng DΓΉ, it was definitely not the first time.
Henry, enjoying the services of a female warrior, turned his head and asked softly, "Carlo, where is your hometown?" β
"Hometown?" The female warrior was stunned for a moment, then showed a wry smile. "Very, very far away, I'm almost forgetting it now."
"Far away? I'm afraid it's another universe, right? Let's talk about how you came to the Continent of Faerun, you must know that it is very difficult for legendary mages to carry out such a teleportation, not to mention that you are only a warrior. As he spoke, Henry stretched out a hand and gently stroked the strong muscles in the other's abdomen.
At the mention of this matter, Carlo's eyes were instantly filled with fear, and he didn't even notice the big hand that gradually touched the forbidden land, and after a long while, he took a deep breath and replied in a trembling voice: "A conspiracy!" A disaster! My companions and I were teleported to the abyss of terror, where we encountered endless demons, and the mages in the team desperately activated the teleportation circle, but they did not adjust the coordinates, and as a result, I appeared in your world alone in a flash of white light, and everyone else is probably dead. It's so terrible, I'll never forget the overwhelming demons. β
When she spoke, she couldn't even control her feelings, her whole body was trembling, and a normal person might have a nervous breakdown when she looked at the abyss sky, not to mention witnessing a terrifying number of demon armies.
"So you've been framed?" Henry asked, taking the opportunity to put his hand into the mysterious area thoroughly, and fiddling with the slippery hole with his fingers, after a few strokes, the female warrior had a strong physiological reaction.
"Yes...... Yes! A noble ...... disguised as a demon The aristocracy deceived us, and he ...... He wants to...... Want our souls! Carol endured the pleasure coming from her lower body and said intermittently. She hadn't vented her desires for too long, so she became extra sensitive and emotional.
"It's really a clichΓ© story, and to be honest, you're really lucky, because dying in the abyss can't even free your soul. Now forget about those fears and sorrows, and let's do something pleasant. Saying that, Henry pressed the female warrior on the sofa, took off her clothes, and directly separated the other party's strong legs, and pushed hard, and the little brother instantly entered the warm and humid cave.
Carlo, who was already hungry and thirsty, immediately let out a high-pitched moan, and then the two of them began to exercise vigorously on the couch......
