In addition to magic weapons, armor, and rings, there is also a "Lightning Staff" and a "Sky Staff" (which spews out pillars of fire that attack the user's designated targets.) ), a full-body armor, magically reinforced hammers and halberds, as well as a large number of potions and a few spell scrolls.

The crowd sat down and distributed the loot. The magic leather armor and the secondary perception ring were given to Ammon, and the full-body armor was placed on Khalid's body. Apodell took the Ring of Freedom and carried the halberd behind him, and the staff and scroll were divided equally between the two mages. As for the rest of the things that are not needed, they are all stuffed into the dimensional bag.

The group continued to explore the fifth floor, and finally found Sadong in a room. Under Apodell's death threats, the guy quickly shook everything out. Not only did he confess all of the Iron Throne's recent crimes, but he also named the meeting that the two leaders, Brunos and Rita, were holding at Candlefort. It is said that it is necessary to discuss important matters with some sponsors in the south.

When he learned that the Iron Throne was his father's enemy, Apodell instantly lost his mind. He rushed straight up and knocked Sadong to the ground, two punchbag-sized fists waving left and right. When the others reacted and pulled it away, the skull of the guy who claimed to be the top of the Iron Throne had been shattered, and white brains were running down his nose.

Losing an important witness, Jasila surprisingly did not scold Apodell, but patted him on the shoulder and comforted him. At Henry's suggestion, they searched all the rooms on the entire fifth floor. Later, he found two letters on the desk inside, one of which mentioned that the Iron Throne was allied with an organization. The other one is written by Shalovok about his adoptive father, which mentions that Apodell is a spy of the Santarin Society.

Look at the content above. The corners of Henry's mouth turned up slightly. Shalovok finally made up his mind. To begin cleaning the interior of the Iron Throne. And he can finally start the next step. Draw the Iron Throne's attention to Duke Irtan. Only when they move hands with each other will they have enough room to move.

The group cleaned up the blood stains on their bodies and left the Iron Throne's headquarters as fast as they could. By the time the guards found the corpses on the fifth floor, they had already fled the dock area. Along the northwest street, the group quickly found the headquarters of Flame Fist. It was a huge castle-like structure with not only arrow holes on it, but also some huge ballistae used to defend the city.

After arriving at the door to report their names, they were taken directly to an office. When Skar saw Apodell, he immediately stood up and saluted, saying, "Hello." I'm the deputy commander of Flame Fist. Grand Duke Irtan wants to meet you. By the way, let's talk about the Iron Throne. ”

"Then what are you waiting for, take me to this duke quickly. We have a lot of evidence of the Iron Throne's crimes. Apodell pulled out the letter he had just retrieved from inside the Iron Throne and handed it over.

With a few quick glances, Skar led everyone into the dark hallway. They didn't go far when they came to a windowless room. Skar bowed to a heavily armed man at the table, then introduced to the others behind him, "This is the Duke of Irtan. He is the commander-in-chief of the Flame Fist and a member of the Alliance of Lords. ”

Henry stole a glance at the duke. It was found that this middle-aged man's face was very bad now, not only with heavy bags under his eyes, but also with some blackness around his eyes. It seems that Lena has been in recent times. Jennas's wooing operation must have gone very well, and he was already a little overwhelmed. Otherwise, he wouldn't have found Apodell in such a hurry.

Iltan nodded at the crowd with a smile on his face, and then said, "I'm glad to see you. To know that such a meeting is extraordinary, I must ask in such a grim situation. Are you involved in the Iron Throne? ”

"Implicated? All I know is that I've ruined a lot of their plans, and these guys are paying a big bounty on my head. Apodell gritted his teeth and answered the duke's question.

Hear this answer. A satisfied expression appeared on Iltan's face. He stood up and walked around the ground a few times, then continued, "As I heard, you are a thorn in the side of the Iron Throne. I'd like to hire you now to investigate this organization, and it's likely that they've played a dishonorable role in this border conflict. Of course, this is not for you to do it in vain, as long as you get any valuable information, I am willing to pay two thousand gold coins. ”

"Then please give me the two thousand gold coins directly. We've been to the Iron Throne just now, and found that not only are they infiltrating the city with shapeshifters, but the higher-ups are planning to hold a secret meeting at Candlekeep. With that, Apodell looked at Scar, waiting for him to hand over the letters.

Skar quickly delivered a few letters to the duke, and Irtan slapped the table hard after reading them. Unfortunately, although many things can be deduced from the letters, none of them can be used as evidence.

After thinking about it for a while, the Duke first took out a large bag of gold coins and handed it to Apodell, and then said to him with a serious expression: "I hope to continue to hire you to go to the merchant alliance in the city to investigate the situation there." If you are found to be infiltrated by shapeshifters, I authorize you to use force directly. ”

"No problem. I will not refuse this kind of thing that can not only destroy the Iron Throne's plan, but also make a lot of money. With that, Apodell handed over the gold coins to Henry, who put all the money directly into the dimensional bag.

Leaving the Flame Fist headquarters, the group came to the southeast, and the Seven Suns Merchant Alliance was only a square away from the Merchant Alliance. As soon as they arrived at the door, they saw Eders standing in the doorway with a sad face. Sasanta. It suddenly occurred to Aboldel that this guy seemed to have said that he was working in the Merchant Alliance.

"Hey! Buddy. What are you doing here? Seeing that you look sad, you must have encountered some kind of trouble, right? Apodell asked aloud as he walked over and patted him on the shoulder.

Eders was taken aback, and then a look of surprise appeared on his face. "It's a pleasure to see you again. Especially at times like these. I'm in a big trouble right now, I wonder if I can tear it off and talk to you? ”

"Let me guess. Could it be that your two partners have suddenly changed into a different person in recent times, not only actively involved in politics, but also getting closer and closer to the Iron Throne? After saying that, Heng looked at one of the people in this merchant alliance with a playful expression.

Eddes was slightly surprised, he didn't expect such a secret matter to be known to an outsider. Apodell sighed and briefly recounted what he had seen on the Iron Throne and the Duke of Iltan's commission. When he heard that his two friends had been killed, and that the person who was now presiding over the Chamber of Commerce was a shapeshifter, the merchant was already frightened. It took him a while to recover from his shock.

Edus asked in a trembling voice, "You mean to say that my two partners are all monsters now?" It's not that I don't trust you, it's unbelievable. ”

Henry patted the merchant on the shoulder comfortingly. "I think it's not just your partners, but at least half of the people in the firm are shapeshifters. If you don't believe it, you can take us in to collect evidence first, these guys' hands and feet will not be too clean. ”

"Okay. But promise me one thing before you go in. That is, don't do it until you find evidence, I really don't want to turn against my friends who have worked with me for so many years. After saying that, Eders covered his face in pain.

Without hesitation, Apodell agreed, and then the group pushed open the door and entered the interior of the firm. Henry whispered a few words to Ammon, and the girl quickly hid in the shadows and went straight to the office on the second floor. After a while, Aemon returned to the middle of the group with three letters.

Henry probably glanced at them and threw them all to Edus. Not only does it provide a detailed account of how the shapeshifters infiltrate the Chamber of Commerce, but it also mentions the specific process of killing Zor and Elancui. At the end of the letter, it was also noted that they were about to take action against Edus, eradicating this hidden danger and completely controlling the merchant alliance.

Looking at these dense records, Edus. Sasanta felt cold. Under the calculations of monsters and intrigues, the Chamber of Commerce he was proud of was as fragile as a baby. Henry noticed the man's frightened gaze, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly to reveal a satisfied smile. He knew that Eders had been frightened, and after a while, Robert would be able to completely control the Chamber of Commerce with a little means.

The Merchant Alliance controls nearly half of the small merchants in the entire Baldur's Gate region, from north to south and east to west. It's a very large collection of interests, and they not only provide a gold exchange business, but also can often buy unexpected magical items and curiosities from adventurers and the countryside.

For such an organization that integrates intelligence, public opinion control, financial circulation and other functions, Henry is not at all at ease to let others manipulate it. The alliance of comptoirs can only be of maximum use if it is tightly held in its own hands. Thinking of this, he came to Eddes's side and asked in a low voice, "How is it, have you thought about it?" In a little while, these shapeshifters will be the first to do it. ”

Eders clasped his hands and nodded. "Kill all the damn monsters, please. Also, be careful not to injure ordinary businessmen. ”

"I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Apodell yelled, drew his weapon and attacked a guy with a wandering eye.

As one monster was chopped to the ground, the other shapeshifters hiding in the crowd also appeared in their original forms. They let out a piercing scream, and more than forty monsters emerged from the staircase leading to the second floor. The merchants were startled by what they saw, and when they came to their senses, they rushed to the gate. After only two minutes, the only thing left in the merchant was the shapeshifters and the adventurers with weapons in hand.
