Chapter 229: Heading to Candle Castle

Seeing that all the irrelevant personnel had gone, Henry did not hesitate to let the Roll Box Golem activate the eighth-level magic "Abidachy Death Technique" and the sixth-level magic "Chain Lightning". More than half of the shapeshifters were vaporized into dried corpses by the mist, and some were scorched by the pulsating arc.

Apodell and Minsk rushed up and engaged in hand-to-hand combat, and Jasila quickly blessed them with several magic spells. Since she was indoors, Dinahi didn't cast her specialty Shaping Magic, but instead released a third-level spell, "Slowness". Morphers who have been hit by this spell have their movement and attack speed reduced by half, which to the eyes of the reactive warriors is almost like slow motion.

Henry quickly performed the last two spell casts, and a clear ball shot out of his fingertips and exploded on the shapeshifter's head. The energy of the magic directly fixed all the shapeshifters beside Apodell, and he took the opportunity to smash the head of an enemy with a flail and shouted at Henry, "Good job! This spell should come a few more times, and I like monsters that won't fight back. ”

Without hesitation, Henry stretched out his middle finger, and Apodell, who already knew the meaning of the gesture, smiled and continued to kill the immobile shapeshifters.

The ranger shouted as he frantically brandished the spider-slaying sword: "Kill! Kill! Kill! Minsk and Bob are going to kill you stenching monsters! Looking at his distorted facial expression, I knew that this guy must have turned on a berserk state.

Dozens of shapeshifters, aided by spells and divine spells, were wiped out in ten minutes. A few of the guys who tried to escape through the windows were also killed by Ammon with magic arrows one by one. In order to prevent any fish from slipping through the net, they also searched carefully within the Merchants Alliance.

After inspecting all the rooms and storerooms. Eders. Shasanta bowed deeply to everyone. "Thank you so much. Not only did you save the Chamber of Commerce. Also avenged two of my friends. Now all the business of the Comptoir Alliance is open to you. And only 20% of the fee is charged. In addition, this magic greatsword is used as a reward for this mission, so please be sure to accept it. With that, he took off his accessories and handed them over with both hands.

Henry took the greatsword and immediately identified it, and specific information quickly emerged.

Greatsword: "Sword of Kanda"

At first glance, this sword is no different from any other sword, but as soon as any shape-shifting monster appears nearby, the sword will slowly vibrate, eager to release the power within. The sword is named after its original owner. It is said that he paid a huge price to own this sword. The people around him plotted many conspiracies to betray him, but in the end, he relied on this sword to get back what should have belonged to him. As for the crimes and names of those people, they have been lost in the long stream of history.

Equipment Effect:

Adds extra damage to werewolves and shapeshifters.

Appoldel grabbed the sword of Conda and swung it. Be aware that the Pathway Shapeshifter may be disguised as any of your friends, but with this weapon that automatically alarms you, none of this will be a problem. He directly handed over the longsword "Vascona" to Khalid and replaced it with a new weapon himself.

Next, everyone bought a small magic pocket from Edus, which was used to hold gold coins and loot. After all, Henry often leaves the team, so it's a little inconvenient to always use his dimensional bag. After saying goodbye to each other. They returned to the Flame Fist headquarters and reported to the Duke of Iltan.

The Duke breathed a sigh of relief to hear that the Merchant Alliance had returned to Edus's control. He just needs to win this chamber of commerce over now. You'll be able to be in and Lena. Archduchess Jenas maintains a balance of power. The next step is to dig deep into the evidence of the Iron Throne's crimes, believing that once their crimes are made public, the council will soon fall completely to its side.

Iltan looked at Apodell and the others in front of him with a complicated gaze. These adventurers were even more powerful than he thought, not only discovering the plot of the Iron Throne, but also quietly cleaning up a large number of shapeshifters. Maybe it's time for these people to do something more important, like see what the hell this old thing is up to.

Thinking of this, he pulled out a large bag of gold coins and a book that looked very old. "Very good. The money is paid for this mission. There is one more very important thing that you need to do. Take the book to the Candle Keep and see what the Iron Throne guys are plotting there. I'm sure that whatever they're doing is not good for the city. ”

Henry noticed that Apodell's whole body trembled slightly when he heard the word Candlekeep, but immediately returned to normal. It seems that he still has a lot of nostalgia for the place where he grew up, and perhaps this trip to Candleburg is a trial to completely get rid of his childhood and move towards maturity.

Apodell sighed slightly and took on the task. He really wanted to go back and see what was going on with his friends. The crowd left Baldur's Gate with the book. No sooner had passed through the dragon's mouth than a guy in a black cloak walked straight up.

He looked at a book that Apodell was pinning to carry, then bowed and said, "Hello. I'm Zuonan, a scholar from Am. If you don't mind, please give me some time. I have a valuable proposition that will allow both of us to reap enough benefits. ”

"Hurry up if you have anything to say, we're still in a hurry." Apodell frowned impatiently. His mind was now full of memories of Candlekeep, and his mind had already flown away.

Zuo Nan was not annoyed by the other party's bad attitude, and he still had a smile on his face. "No problem, it only takes a few minutes. You have a book I need so much, the one that the Duke of Iltan has just given you. I'm willing to trade it for another expensive book worth ten thousand gold coins. ”

Apodell thought about it for a moment, and felt that since they could all pass through the gates guarded by the Candle Keep, they would not all use the same books. In order to prevent being deceived, let the two mages in the team check the books provided by Zuo Nan. Dinahi used magic to interpret it for a long time, but she couldn't even understand a word. She felt that the book had some research value, and that she might be able to find relevant information in the library management of Candlecastle.

Henry knew in his heart that there were ghosts in this book, but he didn't say anything. He knew that the whole thing would not only bring a lot of experience points, but also involve a great treasure. Seeing that neither mage said the book was fake, Apodell agreed to the other's quid pro quo.

Zuo Nan took the book with trembling hands, and then said loudly in an excited voice: "Thank you so much!" I'm unlocking one of the greatest secrets of this mysterious country! Your role in this is beyond imagination. I don't know how to thank you, I'm going to the south, see you again, friends. With that, he disappeared out of everyone's sight as soon as he slipped through the smoke.

Jasila, an experienced adventurous experiencer, found this a little strange, but she wouldn't say it until she found something suspicious. The group traveled south along the main road, and finally crossed the Lion Avenue after several days of rushing. Pointing to the castle in the distance, Amon shouted, "Look, we're almost there." I really don't know how Winthrop is doing now, and the hotel would have been a mess without my help in cleaning. ”

"I think you're a mischievous girl gone, and Winthrop would be a little more relaxed." Seeing that he was about to arrive at Candlekeep, Apodell was in high spirits, and now he was in the mood to make a joke.

Just when the two of them were fighting, suddenly four portals opened on the way. Several ogres appeared in place, and one of them let out a big laugh when he saw Apodell. "Haha Little thing, the son of murder has paid 10,000 gold for your head. We're going to get the money. ”

Before everyone could react, these ogre mages quickly blessed various spells. All of a sudden, the "Mirror Technique", "Shield Technique", "Protective Ranged Weapon", "Stealth Technique", and "Acceleration Technique" were all cast, and all kinds of magic aura kept shining.

Henry was the first to come back to his senses, and he didn't hesitate to let the Roll Box Golem activate the ninth-level spell "Pop Explosion". A burst of magical energy tore through the sky, only to see a large number of small pieces of meteors fall from mid-air and smash directly on the ogre's body. These violently burning meteors pierced through the low-level protective magic, devastating a large area ahead.

Appoldel watched in amazement as the ogres were crushed by the burning stones. This apocalyptic sight shocked everyone, and even the Candle Keep side carefully used spells to observe what was happening here. The power of the "pop explosion" made deep pits on the road ahead, and the enemy was completely wiped out before he could even release an attack spell.

Apodell glanced at the puddles of minced meat and said to Henry, "Man! Are you playing a little too far? I feel a little sympathetic to these ogres now, because they don't even have a whole corpse left. ”

"I'm just giving a warning to those who have ulterior motives, don't think that they are all easy to bully. So the next time someone wants to kill us and get a bounty, we have to think carefully about whether it's worth it to lose our lives. As he spoke, Henry glanced at the Candle Castle in the distance.

Now Shaloferk might be staring at it. He had now begun to openly claim that he was the heir of the murder god Baal, and these ogres must have taken refuge in the past because of this. They were clearly opportunists, but this time they were clearly making the wrong bet. Because only Apodell could possibly ascend to that position, and whether or not he could become a new god was up to his own choice. (To be continued......)
