Apodell touched his face, then looked at his hands again. After that, he got up from the ground, shook off the dust on his body, and yelled at the idol of Baal: "Father! I'm not going to bow to you! Look, I'll completely defeat and conquer it. ”

Dinah clapped her hands with a smile on her face. "Well said. I knew that you would not give in to the nature in your blood, and that only struggle was the only way out. Falling into evil may give you great power, but then you will not be yourself. ”

"Now that it's all over, let's get out of here. The negative energy and the smell of blood here make me sick. With that, Jasila walked towards the door of the temple.

Apodell glanced at the mutilated corpse and sighed. He walked over and picked up Shalovk's two-handed sword, and then followed him out of the alley. Passing by a corpse, Henry discovers a ring with strong magical fluctuations. He picked it up and made a identification, and soon got specific information.

Strongest Guardian Ring: "Gatekeeper's Mark"

Legend has it that this austere ring was Io's reward for his steadfast and reliable service in turbulent times. Heim then gave the gift to his mortal followers.

Equipment Capabilities:

Creates an invisible stance that greatly increases magical and physical resistance.

It's really a powerful magic ring, I'm afraid that as long as it is equipped, most normal physical attacks will be bounced off by the stance, and magic attacks will also be weakened. Henry tossed the Gatekeeper's Mark directly to Shantil, who had been following her, and although the sorceress sometimes liked to make her own decisions, her loyalty was unquestionable.

The sorceress's eyes lit up when she got the ring. I quickly put it on my hand. She now has very few magical items on her. Except for an evil archmage's robes, there was basically nothing. Due to not having enough materials on hand. Shantil couldn't make it at all. Now that she had suddenly received a reward from her master, she was a little ecstatic. Because it means that he has gained a certain degree of recognition.

The group returned to the thieves' union in the city. Robert has taken over the place and is cleaning up the house from the corpses and bloodstains. Since Alatus's men had been killed, he wisely took refuge in his former apprentice. Robert didn't treat the former mentor badly, and after installing the necessary manpower, he still put this experienced guy in charge.

As soon as he saw Henry and the others coming out of the underground tunnel, Robert immediately put down his work and ran over and asked, "Master, how is the situation down there?" Do you need me to send some people to explore the way? You must know that there are many traps in the labyrinth of the road. ”

Henry smiled and waved his hand. "No need. Shaloferk is now dead, and the labyrinth has been cleared of the magical traps and monsters. There is an underground island at the very bottom of the labyrinth, so you can use it if you like. I'll leave it to you, and I'll take these heroes to the celebration feast. ”

"Rest assured, I'll run it well. In addition, the things you have explained have been done. So saying, Robert made a gesture of a bird flying towards him.

Henry immediately understood that he was talking about Antar. Silver Shield's daughter has been abducted. He smiled and patted the leader of the thieves on the shoulder, and then led Apodel and his party towards the Duke's mansion. Walking down the streets, everyone found that the whole city had returned to calm. Elite soldiers from the island of Angome are patrolling around and will run over to check on anything unusual.

Citizens are closely watching the situation through cracks in doors and windows. Henry ignored these curious ordinary people and directly asked a team of soldiers to escort everyone to the Duke's mansion. The corpses and blood have been cleaned up. All the furnishings and dishes have been changed.

Duke Silver Shield saw Henry's eyes light up, and hurriedly walked over and gave him a warm hug: "Welcome." My dear earl. Oh no. It's time to call you the Duke. In the future, Baldur's Gate will no longer need that weak council, and I believe that with our cooperation, this place will soon become a happy land. Also, what happened to the son of Baal? ”

Henry laughed and pushed Apodell to the front. "Shalovok was killed by this hero as soon as he entered. And he has exposed a lot of the Iron Throne's conspiracies, I don't think he should be rewarded? ”

Anta. Silver Shield looked at Apodell with strange eyes. "Oh my God, this is another son of Baal? Sure enough, as in the Arlando language, Baal's descendants will kill each other. His words caught the attention of the others, and all eyes were focused at once.

Of course, he will be paid handsomely, but that will be until the celebration in two days' time. You must know that everything is in a mess in the Dao now, especially on the side of the Flame Fist mercenaries. Your Commander Corey was so vicious that he breached the fortress and killed all the high-ranking people involved in the rebellion. Don't you see that the streets are full of your soldiers now? Because all the guards are locked up in the dungeon, waiting for you to come back and dispose of them. After saying that, there was a look of envy on the duke's face.

Henry beckoned to one of his own mages, and when he walked over, he commanded, "Go and tell Corey to let him release half of the ordinary guards to the Duke of Silver Shield as soon as possible." ”

"Okay, I'll go inform him now." The mage bowed, and walked in the direction of the Flame Fist headquarters, protected by two barbarian warriors.

Anta. Silver Shield nodded at Henry in satisfaction. The original agreement was to divide the entire Baldur's Gate equally. Of course, the well-trained soldiers of Flame Fist also had to be half of them, otherwise he would not have believed in managing such a large area of land. After all, there are so many monsters around, and God knows if they will take advantage of their weakness to throw them out and loot the village.

Apodell was feeling very uncomfortable now, because everyone around him was looking at him with awe and disgust. For it is mentioned in the prophecy that the son of Baal will take war and death wherever he goes. He now finally knew what Shalo Fox was so crazy about, and he might go crazy if he stayed in this environment for a long time.

Jasila noticed Apodell's distress and patted him on the shoulder comfortingly. "Don't take it too seriously. These ordinary people don't understand what it means to be a child of God, they are simply afraid of all the power you have. ”

But I saw fear in their eyes. Jasila, I should get out of here and go to a place where no one knows me. Apodell rubbed his forehead and let out a wry smile.

Dinah Black sighed slightly, then nodded. "That's fine. Not only can you relax your mind, but you can also take a trip around this world. Tell me, where are you going to travel? ”

Apodell thought about it for a while before making a decision. "Go to Amm in the south, I've heard that it has the most prosperous commerce in the entire continent of Faeron. When this trip is over, maybe the residents here will change their minds. ”

"I don't really like the hustle and bustle of the city, but I'll travel with you. But you'd better go and say goodbye to Henry, who has been very helpful in this adventure. With that, Jasila gestured to the Anta who was talking to him. Henry of Silver Shield to discuss things.

Picking up the courage to walk over and interrupt the conversation, Apodell took Henry aside and told him what he was going to do. When the latter heard this, he nodded quietly. "I respect your choice. But be careful, I've heard that Am's Shadow Thieves have gotten your information and are planning to do something that isn't so good. ”

"Haluha, don't worry. It's just a bunch of thieves, can they be more difficult to deal with than Shalovok? Apodell laughed unconcernedly.

Henry frowned. Perhaps it was this arrogance that led to his later miscapture, as the Son of Ebal is now so powerful that even a legendary thief may not be able to beat him. Thinking of this, he turned his head to look at the innocent Aemon, this girl had been subjected to inhuman treatment in the dungeon, and he should probably try to help her avoid this scourge.

"Okay, but I must stay tonight, and I will hold a banquet in the Earl's Court to practice it for you."

Apodell smiled and patted his chest. "No problem, I'm going to have a big meal tonight. Also, prepare some good wine, let's have a few drinks. ”

Henry knew that time was pressed tonight, so he hurriedly explained a few words and said goodbye to Duke Yindun. After returning to the Earl's Court with everyone, he immediately ordered the butler to bring a sumptuous dinner to the highest standards. The butler did not dare to slack off, and immediately made all the servants in the mansion move. A truck quickly drove to the market to buy the fish, meat, vegetables, eggs and so on.

Henry separated the men and women of Apodell and arranged for them to take a bath in two separate bathrooms. He went headlong into the study and began to prepare the necessary materials, he was going to get everyone drunk at night, and then Emmon, Khalid and Dinah Hei would have different magic marks tattooed on their bodies.

Thanks to the efforts of four chefs, it took only two hours to make more than 200 dishes with a full range of colors and flavors. The long tables in the restaurant are filled, and wines from all over the world are placed in a mobile wine cabinet, so you can take whatever you want. When Henry saw that everything was ready, he asked all the servants to leave.

Looking at these teammates who were stunned by the lavish dinner in front of him, he smiled and held up a glass of juice. "I still have some things to attend to, so I can't go with you. Here, I wish you all the best on your journey. Cheers to our friendship! ”

"Cheers!"

All of them raised their glasses and drank them all. After drinking the first glass of wine, except for Dina Hei, who was able to maintain a polite eating mode, everyone else turned on the berserk state, grabbed it with his hands and stuffed it into his mouth. Looking at the joyful picture in front of him, the corners of Henry's mouth showed a wry smile that was not easy to detect. (To be continued......)
