Chapter Ninety-Four: Reunion and Infiltration
Along the way, Henry and Dai Lina tell each other some interesting stories and adventures that happened to them, and the relationship between the two quickly upgraded from ordinary collaborators to close friends. After three days of traveling, they finally saw the light from the mage tower in the distance, and they carefully bypassed the dark elf scouts hiding in the shadows and came to the spiral staircase.
Climbing up the stairs to the upper floor, Henry saw at a glance the orc warriors and mages waiting by the bridge. He quickly disarmed the shapeshifting effect and ran over, and Vaughn saw it and stood up and gave him a hug. "Head! You have returned safely. If there's no more news, we're going to go down to you. ”
Henry smiled and patted the orc warrior on the shoulder. "Don't worry, not only is it fine, but you have also got a lot of benefits. I've now got my pass to the central area. ”
Debra walked over with a hot kiss, and it took a while for her to let go of Henry. "Welcome back, host, tell us about your experience below."
After Henry beckoned Dai Lina to sit down with him, he briefly talked about his experience in Ariedlin City, and the orc warrior frowned when he heard it. He sighed. "These black-skinned guys are really treacherous, if I change them, I'm afraid I will be calculated to death. Head, you're really powerful, you know, there aren't many people who can fight against these dark elves in terms of intrigue and trickery. ”
"I'm not as good as you say, and I was caught by the eldest daughter of House Nakoor before I left. If she hadn't left in time, she might have been used to death. After saying that, Henry smiled self-deprecatingly.
Debra looked at him with a gloomy face. "It seems that the intrigue of the Arcane Brotherhood in the past is nothing. Although I have often been told about the legends of the underworld before, it is the first time I have heard such a real experience, and it really makes my scalp tingle. What are you going to do next? ”
Henry thought about it for a moment. "You and Vaughn use the ring to transform into the form of a dark elf, and we swagger through the main entrance. Anyway, they didn't know how to say it, and when I came back, I brought a few people with me, and announced that you two were new soldiers to the family. It just so happened that the city had just taken over the Baisendenog family, and there were some new faces that wouldn't cause too much suspicion. Be careful, though, for if she learns that I've killed Xenafi, she'll most likely retaliate. ”
"I think you also need to pay attention to Archmage Chasma, if the relationship between Naromin and him is really as close as usual, if he finds out that you are pretending, the consequences will be unimaginable." Dai Lina sat next to her and reminded.
Henry shuddered so hard that he almost forgot about this powerful mage. He needed to make up a reason to leave the archmage for a while before he acted. But for what reason? After thinking about it for a long time, he decided to tell Chasma about the plan of the first family, and when the time came, he said that the mistress of Ikrifuda needed to see him urgently.
He made up his mind and said to Dai Lina, "Don't worry, I'll trick him out before I act." As soon as he leaves the camp, we'll move on as soon as he leaves, remembering that as soon as the Mad Mage breaks out of the Wizard Tower, he'll revert to the transformation effect. I don't want us to be killed by him as dark elves, because we'd die too unjustly. Vaughn nodded a little nonchalantly, apparently not taking it to heart.
Debra looked at him solemnly. "You'd better remember your master's words, or you'll bring us ruin. You must know that one of his legendary spells can make all the dark elves in the camp below die. I hope that by then such spells will not be thrown on our heads. ”
Under everyone's gaze, the orc warriors were quickly defeated. He patted his armor and promised, "Please rest assured that I will act according to the plan and will not make a mistake." ”
"Since there's nothing wrong with that, let's get started, Vaughn, and you have to remember to keep your temper in check. You must know that the status of the dark elf male is very low, and a female priest may whip you at any time. Henry warned the orc warrior again, he was really afraid that when the time came, this reckless fellow would just pull out his greatsword and start fighting.
Vaughn activated the spell on the transformation ring and gradually transformed into a tall dark elf warrior. Then he touched his face. "Rest assured, head. Even if these guys on the top of their heads, I won't fight back. But I feel that the way I look now is really weird, and it feels a little weird. ”
Debra touched her pointed ears and sneered. "You look much more pleasing to the eye now than just now, you must know that although the dark elves of the Dao are notorious, their appearance is notoriously handsome and beautiful."
"In the Northlands, we call this kind of appearance a sissy, where only tall and powerful men are welcomed by women." With that, Vaughn shook the long hair that annoyed him.
Henry reshaped, and said to everyone, "Forget about the appearance of the dark elves, let's go now." Remember to be natural, and if someone asks for your name, remember not to speak, and I'll figure out how to deal with it when the time comes. ”
The group quickly descended the spiral staircase towards the gate of the camp. Halfway through, a team of lizard knights tried to stop them. But when the captain saw Henry's appearance, he immediately asked the team to stop. He then had all the knights bow to Henry, and did not straighten up until he entered the camp gate. At this time, a knight asked the captain, "We are on a mission now, why should we salute him?" ”
The captain gave him a slap in the face. "Idiot, haven't you heard. News came from the mage's camp that the Nakoor family had killed the third-ranked Bysendenog family. If you want to die, go for it, don't pull us up. With that, he continued to patrol with the team, leaving the knight alone and stupid in place.
Henry and his companions went straight to the mage's station, and he walked straight to Archmage Chasma's tent. "Master, I have another important news to report now, I wonder if you have time."
"Come in, since you've come back safely, it means that Ikrifda has succeeded in killing another family. I really don't understand what they're doing all day long. The archmage's voice came from inside the tent.
After Henry walked in, he saluted the archmage with a solemn expression. Chasma glanced at it, noticed his face and asked, "Nalomin, what makes your face so ugly?" ”
Henry took a deep breath. "Father's big thing is not good, the first family has collected a lot of souls of people on the surface, and they are going to perform the ritual of calling the abyss. The Mistress is now in contact with the other ruling families to pull the First House down from above. She asked me to tell you that she needed an interview urgently. ”
"Call of the Abyss! Is the first family of Zestra housemother crazy? She'd ruin the city of Aredlyn if she did. Damn, I had a hunch that this surface hunt was going to be bad. Archmage Chasma cursed angrily.
After a few laps around the tent, he said to Henry, "Now I'll leave for a while and go and consult with Ikrifuda about what to do." You stay in this tent and don't go anywhere. The situation is critical, and a war will soon engulf the city. ”
Henry hurriedly nodded. "Please rest assured that I won't leave here, but there are a few men outside, can I let them in and take refuge?"
The archmage waved his hand impatiently. "Whatever, as long as you don't break my things." With that, he opened a portal on the spot and slipped in.
Henry breathed a sigh of relief, and finally deceived this ** annoyance. He directly packed all the experimental equipment, materials, and magical items in the entire tent into dimensional bags. Then he walked out of the tent and said to the few people waiting outside the door, "Okay, Chasma has been tricked back to Ariedlin City by me, and I believe he won't be back for at least half an hour." Let's get started. With that, he put on the badge of recommendation given to him by his master mother and walked towards the mage tower.
Just as they were about to enter the sealing area, they were stopped by a guard. "Stop! This is a controlled area. No one is allowed to approach without an order from the ruling parliament. The guards shouted warning with crossbows.
Henry pointed to the badge on his chest. "This is my pass, and I have an urgent need to go in now. If, because of you, the order is not delivered in time, imagine what will happen to you!"
The guard ignored his threat, but carefully examined the spell on the badge to make sure it wasn't a fake, and then put away his weapon. "I'm sorry to stop you, but I'm on the orders of Mistress Zestra."
Henry kicked him in tandem and walked in with everyone. When he reached the center, he found that there were pillars made of mythril and pure gold, with intricate carvings on them. They form a special force field around the Mage Tower in a special arrangement, which completely isolates the Mage Tower from the outside world.
While the dark elf mages patrolling around the area were not paying attention, they found a corner to hide in, and Henry quietly took out Kelburn's magic scroll and activated it. A powerful burst of magical energy erupted around the scroll, uprooting all the metal pillars. The mages were blown to the ground, and by the time they realized what was happening, it was too late.
A large portal opened from beneath the Mage's Tower, and out of it came an old man dressed in a black robe with his hair disheveled. He let out an eerie laugh on crutches, and then began to mumble to himself. "These damn little things, nasty bed bugs, disgusting rats. I'm going to give you some color to see. ”
