Chapter 290: Respective Preparations

As the mirror shattered, Henry sat up from the bed violently, his whole body soaked in sweat, gasping for air. He subconsciously glanced at the system logo in his hand and muttered to himself in a low voice. "Ego? Cognition? The self in that mirror seems to have something to say, he must know some secrets about me. ”

Wiping the sweat from his face, Henry realized that it was already noon the next day. There was a cacophony of voices outside the window, mostly caravans coming in and out of the city gates. He went to take a shower first, then got dressed and went to the hall on the first floor. After saying hello to Shantil and Sheena, who were having lunch, they hurried to the underground hall.

He was now desperate to know the secret behind last night's dream, so he searched for spells for hours on end, but found nothing but an unknown cause. Even the ninth-level "wishing technique", which claims to be omnipotent, has no useful information. It seems that you may have to wait until the next time you level up to enter again, which seems to be related to the increase in your own strength.

Over the next few days, Henry calmed down and began to make zuò magic items. The first is to remake the dragon scale shield. Not only did he fuse the Demon Eye, the Demon Eye, the Petrified Lizard's Eye, and the Demon Beast's Eye into it, but he also cast a "Activation Spell" on it.

Activate the Eyeball Scale Shield:

This powerful magic shield has been modified to not only have strong physical defenses, but also resist many abnormal states such as petrification, paralysis, immobilization, etc.

Equipment Capabilities:

Increases Fire Resistance, Cold Resistance, and Electricity Resistance at the same time

Immunity to immobilization, paralysis, and petrification

It absorbs ten rounds of Eye Demon Rays per day and bounces them back

This is a self-defense prop that Henry made specifically for himself. It is important to know that although Ascatra prohibits the use of magic in public, it does not prohibit the use of magical items. Although most mages know that this is nothing more than self-deception. But it can't be helped. Who made most of the civilians of Amm disgusted with the Demon Law?

Shantil also took advantage of this time. Merge the mask of Stranghan III with the soul of the fire elemental. Not only does this new power-item have the ability to see through invisibility, but it also allows you to use a fire shield once a day. Of course, this ability to see through invisibility is not strong, and it is useless once it encounters the blessing of the other party and "cannot be detected".

As for the dragon lady Hina recently, except for exercising her martial arts every morning, she has spent most of her time with Govilla asking this and that. It was the first time she had come to such a bustling city, and she was full of curiosity about everything. The two would make time to wander the streets of Ascatra every day, and soon became good friends who talked about everything.

Ordinary days passed day by day, and the war between vampires and shadow thieves was always going on under the cover of night. Although there is Arcanis, a legendary thief, who leads the team and begins to patrol the streets. However, the losses of the shadow thieves are still very huge. Unable to find the enemy's lair, the defeated vampire only needs to turn into gas and return to recuperate for a few days, replenish some blood, and return to the battlefield alive.

And in recent days Renault . The blood head found a strange phenomenon, the enemy's attacks are very targeted, and each time he picks those soft persimmons and pinchs. All kinds of strange events show that there must be traitors within the union. You must know that the shadow thief is not monolithic, and the leader of each subordinate branch has a lot of power, not only can he recruit his subordinates freely, but most of them have a group of loyal dead soldiers. Maybe they all wish they were dead sooner rather than later, so they could take their place.

Assassinations, poisoning, betrayals, and private alliances are widespread. Generally speaking, as long as the gold coins of the subordinate chapters are handed in on time, he doesn't pay much attention to these small actions. But this time it was a bit too much. If the traitor can't be caught and punished quickly, then the other leaders will soon learn from it.

Thinking of this, Renault beckoned to the thief beside him, and then whispered in his ear: "You immediately send someone to monitor Maiva's union, I think he is the most suspicious." Remember, don't startle the snake, this guy has a lot of men. ”

"Understood, it only takes two days and I will give you a satisfactory answer." As he spoke, the man wrapped in a gray cloak saluted and quickly left the Shadow Thief Headquarters to carry out a mission around the docks.

Looking at the agile skills of his subordinates, Renault sneered and muttered: "Maiwa, you must not do anything that is sorry for the union, otherwise don't blame me for being too ruthless." ”

Meanwhile, Joan. Irenikas was bumping into Bardi, and was now lying on the bed doing a "deep" exchange. Joan. Irenikas pressed his sister down hard, twitching frantically, and his two hands scratched blood marks on the other's backs.

"Oh! Oh! My dear brother, a little rougher, yes. Bardy didn't care about the wounds on her body at all, and screamed mercilessly. As a powerful vampire queen, this small wound can be healed whenever she wants.

Soon, Joan. Irenikas vented on the other party's cold body. Suddenly, he hugged his sister's head with both hands and twisted it violently, only to hear a "click", and Bardi's neck was broken. Joan. Unconcerned, Irenikas stood up and cleaned up with a magic trick, and quickly got dressed.

"Hehehehehe! You're still so like killing me, dear brother. Bardy got up from the ground and straightened her neck again. She came to Joan with a light step. Irenikas whispered in his ear, "Do you still hate me for seducing you in the first place?" Thinking about how that biao treated us, I didn't even have a chance to defend ourselves! ”

Joan. Irenikas glanced at his sister coldly, and then shot a "lightning spell". The white lightning passed through Bardi's body, and although it didn't cause much damage, it still startled her. "Remember, don't mention this name in front of me, otherwise the next shot won't be as simple as a small third-level spell."

Seeing that her brother was already angry, Bardi immediately stopped provoking. No one dared to ignore the warnings of a legendary mage in his thirties, not even the Vampire Queen. She knew her brother's strength and tyranny better than anyone else. Any confrontation is a joke with life.

"How's the underground war between your vampires and shadow thieves going? When will it be completely eradicated? "Joan. Irenikas asked in an emotionless tone.

After putting on her clothes, Bardy bowed respectfully and replied, "Many of their strongholds have been pulled out. And one of the powerful union leaders, Maiwa, has taken root with us. ”

Joan. Irenikas frowned and thought for a moment. Then he asked, "Maiva?" Isn't that the guy who helped us catch the Son of Baal! This guy is really ambitious, are you sure you can control it? ”

"Hahahaha, I've already quietly sent someone to leak the news to Renault of the Shadow Thieves Guild, and then I just need to wait and see the two of them fight." At the mention of this vicious plan, Bardi's eyes were filled with bloodlust and crazy impulses.

Joan. Irenikas glanced at his sister with disdain, and directly used the teleportation magic to return to the underground room. It seemed to him that Bardy had completely degenerated, forgetting how they had been humiliated and driven out of the elven city in the first place, and lived a wandering life. The obsession with revenge made Joan. Irenikas has rededicated himself to the study of the Extraction of Divinity, though not much progress has been made. But there's a clue about it.

After a few more days of rest at his own hotel, Henry found that the Shadow Thieves still had no intention of attacking the sewers. To avoid wasting time, he decided to go to the temple area first to deal with the guys in the guard's mansion. Although these people are not too easy to deal with, with the cooperation of the two quasi-legendary spellcasters, they should not pose much of a threat.

Arriving in the hall on the first floor, Henry saw the dragon lady reading with a thick book. I took a closer look at the cover, and saw that it was written in lingua franca "I married a monster". He asked with some curiosity, "Sheena, what is this book about?" It can't be a boring story made up by a bard, right? ”

"There are countless examples of people and dragons and other creatures combining to become nightmares and the like. Of course. A thousand prescriptions are also included at the end of the book, which can be used on monster companions who love food. So as to avoid being placed on top of the other person's menu. Sheena put down the book in her hand and replied with a worried expression. She was in a very bad mood right now, especially after learning how the world thought of the half-dragon people.

Picking up the book and flipping through a few pages, Henry threw it directly into the trash. He smiled and patted the dragon lady on the shoulder. "Don't worry, the people who live in Ammu still think that magic is evil, and the mages are the source of the disaster. Ordinary people have a natural fear of supernatural powers, so don't pay much attention to their opinions. ”

Sheena shrugged her shoulders helplessly. "I'm not you, I'm always so calm. By the way, what is the matter with me, are you going to set off on an adventure? ”

Henry nodded solemnly. "Yes, you'd better hurry up and make a list if you need something, and ask Govilla to send someone to the Adventurer's Market to buy it. The enemies you have to deal with this time can be very difficult, so be prepared. ”

"Got it, I just don't have a few spellcasting materials." Hina immediately stood up and ran to the counter to find Govvera.

Henry then informed Shantil again, and then went to the city alone to find the intelligence point that Robert had set up here, and read some of the news that had recently arrived. The attacks of the desertified fishmen are still ongoing, and it is now almost certain that their main purpose is to plunder the coastal population. He was secretly glad that his movements were fast enough and he didn't let the other party succeed at all.

There were also several work reports from Hawke, Corey, and others, and finally a letter from his wife's family and a letter of peace from Archmage Tyrantiel of High Fence Castle. He was relieved to see that the principality and his family were well. According to Leila's prophecy, the attack would continue at least until the end of the year. Now it is only necessary to carry out the original plan and carry out the solid wall to the end.
