PS: Bow and thank the poor book lovers, shoot the UFO with one arrow, the genius pervert, G-boy, I self & Xiaoyao and other book friends voted for the monthly ticket.
After the death of the Great Druid, the battle went straight into tailgating and chasing mode. Most of the Shadow Druids were killed on the spot, and only a very small number fled into the depths of the forest. However, what awaits them is most likely the pursuit of Sania and ordinary druids. Jasila asked from one of the captives that Marissa and Pildo were now being held in the basement of Marisa's Treehouse. She immediately rushed to the rescue with Khalid and the two men were carried out a few minutes later.
Henry noticed that both Pildo and Marisa were not looking good, and that they had been brutally punished in many places. Jasila treated them with magic, and then the four of them began to talk familiarly. Ammon and Apodell simply cleaned up the loot on the ground and found that the Shadow Druids were very poor. Except for some magic potions, I couldn't even find a single gold coin.
Soon the time for the monsters to summon will come. They were teleported back one by one by the power of magic, and the entire camp was left with nothing but the adventuring party and the two rescued druids. After this devastating destruction, it is believed that the Shadow Druid will never approach this forest again.
"I'm going to leave Khalid for a few days and get Pildo and Marissa back safely. The two of them were in terrible physical condition, and they had no ability to protect themselves at all. Jasila walked over to the crowd and said.
Henry glanced at the miserable situation of the two men and nodded slightly. He's already received the experience points for completing the mission, so I'll leave the rest to Jasila to figure it out. "No problem. I'm going to take care of everyone in the team during this time. I've also found out the enemy's secret base, in a mine deep in the northern forest. The guys found new iron ore there. Slaves are being captured everywhere for mining. ”
When Apodell heard that he had found a secret base for the enemy, he hurried over. "Really?! No wonder these guys are polluting the Nasikai mines. Robbery of caravans transporting iron products. It turned out that they had discovered a new iron ore mine themselves. ”
Jasira frowned and analyzed the whole thing. In that case, everything makes sense. The Iron Throne has orchestrated a series of conspiracies in order to monopolize the entire Baldur's Gate steel trade. They first destroyed the iron ore and then cut off the transportation lines. Take advantage of the soaring price of iron products, and then use the iron from your own mine to earn a lot of gold coins. ”
Apodell clenched his fists and laughed. "Ha Lu Ha! Now we've finally got our hands on them. When the time comes, as long as the mine is destroyed, all their efforts will be in vain! ”
"We just need to kill all the people of the Iron Throne, there is no need to destroy the mines. Don't forget that it will take some time for the iron ore mine in Nasikai to return to normal, and this mine is well positioned to save the mine from this crisis. "Henry has made the entire Baldur's Gate region his own. How could you agree to such a self-defeating thing as destroying the mine.
Jasila nodded slightly. "That's right. The mines must not be destroyed, otherwise it will not be long before the entire area will riot due to the lack of iron. Be careful when you move, there must be a lot of guards there. If you can't do it, just wait, Kalid and I will be able to catch up soon. ”
Henry smiled and patted Apodell on the shoulder and said to Jasila, "Don't worry, we'll clean up the mine before you catch up." Those ordinary mercenaries and goblins pose no threat. ”
"Well said, brother. Not only will we kill all the pieces, but we'll also find out who is behind them. Apodell chimed in. After so many battles, he is now very confident in his strength.
Jasila shook her head helplessly. "Alright, I'll send Pildo and Marissa back now." As she spoke, she waved at her husband.
After sending the four people away. Everyone found a clean place and started camping. Henry had planned to travel overnight, but considering that the spell slots were consumed a bit too much during the afternoon battle. It's better to rest for a night to be on the safe side. The bonfire was soon lit, and Colon cut some of the meat from the dead animals, cooked it, and gave everyone a large portion for dinner.
Just as Henry and the others began to sleep, Shantil slowly stepped off the airship. After two days of flying, she had arrived at the city of Bluvent from Baldur's Gate. Everyone around looked at the seductive sorceress with amazement, and many merchants and nobles had already expressed their admiration for her along the way, allowing the woman to regain her long-lost self-confidence.
Shantil walked the streets of the city with a graceful and brisk step, and the passers-by and pedestrians looked sideways, and many of them accidentally bumped into other people because they were too focused on looking. The sorceress was so pleased with her charm that she sometimes wondered if she could try to seduce her master, but she dismissed the idea. I'm afraid that in this woman's heart, Henry has already equated with the devil.
Arriving at the door of the Thieves' Guild, Shantil smiled seminiously at the gatekeepers, and then walked straight through the big guys. The thief guarding the doorway giggled for a moment, and then suddenly came to his senses. He immediately pulled a rope next to him, and an alarm immediately sounded throughout the guild.
Robert frowned when he heard the bell, it was the first time that this kind of invasion alarm had been sounded in so many years since the Thieves' Guild had been established. He couldn't think of anyone who would break into it, after all, the trap near the gate would be enough to kill an army of about two hundred men.
Just as Robert was thinking, the thieves guarding the door rushed in and shouted, "Chief! Oh no. A particularly beautiful woman just now. Her eyes seemed to have another kind of strength, and I lost myself after just one look. ”
"Huh. I really didn't expect you to be quite clever and return to normal so quickly. Shantil lifted the effect of the "invisibility technique" and slowly emerged from the air.
The thief was taken aback, and he immediately took a few steps back and pointed at the sorceress and shouted, "This is the woman!" She's the intruder! ”
Robert clenched the two weapons around his waist, and he could feel the dangerous aura emanating from the woman's body. "Who are you? What is the purpose of coming to my guild? ”
Shantil slowly walked over to the desk and sat down in Robert's seat. She looked at the leader of the thieves with a playful look, and then said, "You can call me Shantil. The host asked me to come here. ”
"Master? Who is your master? Robert asked, quietly placing it on his belt buckle. This is a magic item that Henry gave him before leaving, and he can contact the Mage Tower with a single hard press. When the time comes, Borken and Debra will quickly invoke the power of the mage tower and deal a fatal blow to the person in front of them.
Shantil spotted the name on the belt buckle and immediately stopped further probing. She didn't want to take the full force of the Mage Tower's attack because of such a trivial matter. The sorceress pressed her fingers lightly on her neck, and a special mark belonging to Henry emerged. "Well, does this mark remind you of anything?"
Robert breathed a sigh of relief when he pressed Henry's magic mark. He turned to the thief behind him and said, "Go and inform everyone that the alarm is lifted, this woman is not an enemy." ”
The thieves did not understand what was happening, but they faithfully carried out their orders. Soon the bells of the entire guild stopped, and everything was back to normal.
"Tell me, what is the matter with the master asking you to come to me?" Robert asked as he stared coldly at the woman in front of him. He also couldn't figure out where Henry had gotten a powerful new servant.
Shantil put her feet on the table and repeated Henry's request. After Robert listened to all the requests, he immediately asked his elite to assemble in the basement. Plus, he's going to go to the Mage's Tower. A day later, Robert boarded the airship with more than forty thieves, including the Dark Elves, and the Terminator, along with the much more honest Shantil.
The Terminator puts too much pressure on the sorceress. This terrifying and legendary creature is not only resistant to many types of magic, but also possesses a very strong ability to heal itself. The two axes in his hands are magical, and one can destroy the surrounding magic web, and if it hits, it will cause the spell to fail. The other one has been solidified in the "mentally retarded technique", as long as the skin is scratched a little, it will become a fool and a fool in an instant.
It can be said that the Terminator is specially prepared by Henry to deal with high-level spellcasters. Robert deliberately brought it out to deter Shantil and make the sorceress of the chaotic camp be honest. He didn't want his plan to go wrong, after all, Henry had told the operation to be carried out in secret.
The airship slowly began to inflate into the air, and it didn't take long for it to rise high into the air. The propellers on both sides began to spin rapidly, and the behemoth slowly flew towards the west coast. Robert sat in his seat with his eyes closed, and he had already guessed what his master was going to do. After all, the information sent back recently indicates one thing, that is, the Iron Throne is about to move, and the entire Baldur's Gate region is in turmoil.
There's never been a better time to step in. As long as he takes advantage of the chaos to take out a few dukes and chamber leaders, and then completely eradicates the Iron Throne, it is entirely possible for Henry to bring the entire Baldur's Gate under his rule. Robert trembled with excitement at the thought that he was about to carry out such a huge plan. He's been dormant on the island for too long, and it's time to test the strength of the guild right now.
Shantil glanced at Robert's expression and knew that something big was about to happen. She also planned to show herself well in this operation, so that Henry could feel her talent and loyalty. Only in this way can we improve the current situation, otherwise I am afraid that I will really be a slave with no status for the rest of my life. The two men went their separate ways, and the Assassin and the Dark Elves hiding in the warehouse stood by the Terminator. They are also thinking about how to behave so that the leader can appreciate and promote themselves. (To be continued......)
