Chapter 107: Planning (Fourth Update!) )
In the sewers of the city of Bluwente, members of the Brotherhood are directing golems and beasts to dig a massive cavern. The entire wall on the west side of the sewer has been completely dug into a large hole, and countless forks in the road have turned the place into a miniature labyrinth. The mage who was the leader stared at the rat people who were in charge of digging and carrying around him, and reprimanded loudly: "Hurry up, I heard that the lord here is coming back soon." We've got to get the job done here before he rushes back. Otherwise, once he begins to mobilize all the forces of the territory, our situation will become very dangerous. ”
"Tutor Anthony, please rest assured that in another week we will be able to complete the entire maze completely. At that time, even if someone finds out, they can rely on the complex passage here to fight back. A handsome apprentice said to him respectfully.
Anthony smiled at the apprentice who had been in love with him for a while. "Then the work here will be handed over to you first, I went around the city outside, and I heard that there are many special services in the entertainment area here, which is very interesting."
The apprentice secretly cursed the old pervert, and then put on a deferential expression. "Don't worry, I'll monitor the progress of the project, maybe by the time you take a tour, this place will be completed."
Anthony patted the apprentice's ass and let out a burst of laughter. "You're good Stephen, if you do well enough this time, I'll teach you some new spells when I get back. Now I'm going to get out of this damn sewer, the stench here is unbearable. With that, he turned and walked in the direction of the exit. The apprentice named Stephen stared at Anthony's back with hateful eyes until he disappeared from sight.
Debra, meanwhile, came to the town hall, and as soon as she entered the hall she said to the guards guarding the door, "The Count has asked me to come to Mayor Hawke with something to communicate. Where are the others? ”
The guard was stunned for a moment, then he pointed to the second floor. "The mayor usually works in the innermost room on the second floor. However, if you want to see him, you must inform him in advance. Ma'am, if you're in a hurry, I can show you the way. ”
"Then what are you waiting for, let's lead the way. The Count is still waiting for news from me. The female mage commanded the guards with a stern expression.
A few minutes later, the two men walked to the door of the mayor's office. The guard knocked on the door and shouted, "Your Excellency, there is a lady who says that she has come with an order from the Earl to discuss something important with you. ”
Hawke, who was working at the office, immediately stood up and opened the door, he looked at Debra in surprise and asked, "You're back!" When, why didn't I get any news at all? ”
"I just came back last night, and I haven't had time to inform you yet. But now I have something important to tell you, should you invite me in first? The mage glanced at the soldier next to her and motioned for Hawke to let him go.
Hawke immediately understood, and turned his head to look at the guards. "You've done a great job, now go back to your post. I need to speak to this lady separately now. ”
The guard saluted and turned to walk down the stairs. Hawke brought Debra into the room and poured her a glass of water. "Now let's talk about what happened that requires you to come in person."
Debra picked up her glass and took a sip of water. "The Arcane Brotherhood of Luskan is digging in the sewers, and they want to establish a stronghold here and infiltrate us. The master has now begun to mobilize forces and prepare to eradicate them in one fell swoop. He asks you to take control of the city defenses, maintain law and order in the city, and prevent large-scale riots when the time comes. ”
Hawke's eyes widened and asked, "The Brotherhood is infiltrating us!" How could no one have come to inform me of such a serious matter? ”
"It's just after the last failed operation of the Arcane Brotherhood that I took refuge with my master. This is the second time they have tried, and I guess it will be the last attempt. This kind of thing is always done in secret, and it's normal that you don't know it. Debra glanced at him.
Hawke sorted out the information he had gotten and found that this kind of thing was really not suitable for him to handle. "Okay. I will inform the city guards to step up their patrols, and if there is a fight in the streets, they will quickly isolate the area. ”
"Now that you know, I'll go to the barracks. There are a few more people over there who need to be informed. With that, Debra stood up and walked out of the room, leaving the town hall. Soon Hawke gave the order to pass it on. All patrols have more than doubled their manpower.
When Debra rushed to the barracks, Amy also arrived at the gate of the union. The thieves at the head recognized the chieftain's sister at a glance. He walked over and whispered, "Miss Amy, are you here to find the chief?" ”
Amy nodded. "Take me directly to him, there is a very important news here that must be handed over to him immediately."
A few minutes later, Amy saw her brother, who stepped forward and pulled out a note and handed it over. "Brother, the master asked me to hand it over to you, saying that there is some important news above."
Robert opened it and carefully analyzed the information on it, and when he saw that he liked the handsome boy, his eyes flashed with a gleam. "I see, the message above is useful. You go back and tell the master, I will plan an operation soon, and I hope to get his cooperation when the time comes. ”
"I'll bring your message, and if there's nothing I'll go first. Be careful yourself, I've heard that the enemy casts a high level this time. Amy told her brother as she turned to leave.
Robert nodded with a smile on his face, watching his sister walk out of the basement, a smile crossed the corner of his mouth and said to himself: "Don't worry, my sister, this guy's weakness is so obvious, if you don't do something, I'm so sorry for this information." Then he quickly went to the office on the first floor, and said to the thief standing in the doorway, "Go to the basement at once, and choose the most handsome one among the dark elves." ”
"Obey the leader, I'll do it now." The thief nodded and ran in the direction of the basement.
Ten minutes later, he walked into Robert's office with a handsome black-skinned handsome man. The leader of the thieves took a closer look at the dark elf, his handsome facial features, streamlined muscles, and long white hair were indeed very much in line with most people's aesthetics.
The dark elf was a little hairy by Robert, and he asked cautiously, "Chief, I don't know what you called me for?" ”
Robert smiled and touched his chin as he began to grow a beard. "Very good, what's your name, what have you done underground before, tell me about it."
"My name is Antleb, and I've worked as a waitress between a warrior, a thief, and a man of lust." The Dark Elves carefully answered the leader's questions.
"Hostess between desires? Tell me what the specific job is. Robert asked curiously.
Anteleb smiled bitterly. "It's a place for the Dark Elf women to enjoy, and I'm the tool for them. You must know that most of the dark elf women have a relatively high status, so this kind of entertainment venue is also designed for them. ”
Robert's eyes lit up. "So you've been a man! That's great, I have a task for you right now. Now you go and dress yourself up and seduce a mage. I need you to put a special poison in his diet, and as long as this mission is successful, I will promote you to be the head of all the dark elves. ”
Antleib's eyes widened when he heard the chief's words, and he didn't close his mouth for a long time. "You mean he and not her? That means I'm going to seduce a man! ”
A strange smile appeared on Robert's lips. "That's right, he's a mage who likes handsome men. With your experience, you will be up to the task, and I'll give you the poison in a moment, and find a way to incorporate it into his diet. ”
Anteleb swallowed hard, subconsciously touched his ass with his hand, and finally sighed. "Okay, I'll give it a try. Anyway, the humans on the surface must not be more difficult to deal with than the priestess of the Queen of Rus. ”
"I'm sure you'll be able to do a good job, remember! I don't like to fail. If something goes wrong, your future may not be very good. Robert stared into his eyes and threatened.
"Don't worry, I'll do my best to seduce him. When the time comes, please leave me with the position of the Dark Elf Boss. Anteleb gritted his teeth and reassured.
Robert nodded in satisfaction and pulled out a small bottle from under the cabinet, filled with a clear liquid. He shook it carefully, and a halo of magic appeared around the bottle. It was a special poison that allowed the caster to randomly forget half of the spell after drinking it, and he bought it from the Amber smuggler at great expense.
Robert carefully handed the bottle to Antleb and said to him, "Here's a special poison that only works on the caster. If you need to, you can drink it with him, it's not fatal, and it won't have any adverse effects. ”
Anteleb took the bottle and carefully inspected the seal, and finally put it in the pocket of his underwear. "I'll let that damn mage drink this, but how do I get close to him? You know, most people on the surface don't have a good impression of the Dark Elves. ”
The thief standing next to him laughed, and he patted Anteleb on the shoulder. "Rest assured, half of the casinos and courtyards in the entire entertainment area are controlled by the union. When the time comes, just say hello and they will naturally bring people to you. (To be continued......)
