No one stepped forward to dissuade Apodell, he had been suppressed for too long, and maybe it wasn't a bad thing to vent out. A few hours later, the group was on their way to Belgoust. According to the plan, everyone will rest there for a day, and then go directly back to Baldur's Gate to report to the Duke of Iltan. Hopefully, he can turn the tide and stop Shalovk's plot.

Only Henry knew that Iltan had been badly stabbed and was now locked up in the dungeon of the Flame Fist headquarters. However, counting the time, the assassins sent by Robert should have infiltrated as well. By the time they returned to the city, he would have been a rotting corpse.

Arriving in Belgoust, Apodale took the group to the most luxurious Felder Hotel in town. In the evening, Henry instigated Ammon to steal a fat man named Egnon. It only took a few minutes for the dexterous girl to steal a beautiful red magic cloak from him.

Egnon's Cloak:

Egnon's cloak is infused with mana, and the wearer emits light.

Facts:

Equipment Capabilities:

Charisma +2

Special Abilities:

Once a day for twelve hours.

Getting this beautiful magic cloak made Amon ecstatic. She directly took out some dyeing tools and smeared the entire cloak, and soon the brilliance on it gradually disappeared, and even the color turned pink. Putting the cloak on herself, the girl walked around twice with a smug smile on her face.

"Well, does this cloak match me? It's no wonder that the fat man looks very attractive, and it turns out that this magic item is the only thing that makes the difference. ”

Henry smiled and nodded, and reminded, "Of course it's a good match." However, it's best to be careful when using charms. Because this magic does not work much for those who are determined. ”

Aemon winked mischievously. "Rest assured. I'm not going to be like those fools. Overly superstitious about the power of magical items. ”

"Of course, you are the clever and clever Aemon, and you will surely become a great mage Jane the thief in the future. I can't wait to see that day. Henry stood up and made an exaggerated aristocratic salute. The girl laughed and turned and ran out of the room, looking for Apodell to show off her new cape.

Amused the lovely Aemon for a while, and Henry walked alone through the streets of the town. I didn't go far when I came across a crying little girl. He inquired a little about the reason, and immediately remembered that it was a side quest in the game. Although the experience points are not much, and it is still going to break the bank. But for the sake of the girl's pity, she took on this task.

After simple adjustments. The girl's parents finally get back together. To help the financially struggling family, Henry took out six hundred gold coins to buy a pearl necklace. And secretly concealed from the two adults and returned the necklace to the girl. He got a kiss of thanks from a six-year-old Lori,

Bidding farewell to the little girl with a surprise on her face, Henry continued to wander the streets with a smile on his face. Belgoust's location would have been extended to a city if it weren't for the fact that it was often attacked by monsters and beasts. Since all the important people in the town were assassinated a few days ago, the pedestrians on the street now seem to be in a hurry and panic.

Suddenly, as he passed a house, Henry saw a particularly tall figure inside. Judging by his height, this guy is at least more than three meters tall, and definitely not a human. A strong curiosity led Henry to quietly push open the door to the house. A tall male ogre warrior was seen kissing a diminutive female dwarf mage.

This subversive picture in front of him left Henry dumbfounded. While he was still in a daze, a boy suddenly ran down from the stairs and shouted, "Daddy." Mom, there's a stranger peeking over there. ”

The ogre warrior jerked his head up, and at a glance he saw Henry standing in a daze in the doorway. Without saying a word, he raised his two-handed giant sword and rushed over to slash, and the dwarf mage quickly began to chant incantations, ready to kill and extinguish his mouth. Henry didn't want to kill anyone, but he was quickly annoyed by the two pestering guys.

"Damn! If you don't stop, I'm going to fight back!" Henry shouted a warning at the two men.

Unfortunately, the couple had no intention of wanting a peaceful settlement at all. Instead of stopping their attacks, they launched a surprise attack while Henry spoke. This move made Henry, who was not very good-tempered, murderous, and he first used the "Cracking Technique" to strip off the dwarf mage's defenses, followed by the "Spell Ordering" skeleton trap three times in a row.

A huge explosion of magic tore the dwarf mage and the children beside her to shreds in an instant. Seeing the tragic death of his wife and children, the ogre warrior screamed with red light and frantically waved the magic two-handed sword in his hand. But it's a pity that under the protection of the sixth-level magic "Protective Magic Weapon", not even a single hair was injured.

Henry turned a blind eye to the frenzied ogre warrior in front of him, and continued to chant incantations unhurriedly. Soon summons a Demon Duncan's sword, which pierces the ogre's heart from behind. The berserk warrior fell to the ground with reluctance and hatred in his eyes, blood flowing everywhere.

After killing the strange family of three, he searched the house and the corpses on the ground. Aside from a few magical items, no signs of conspiracy were found. After cleaning up the corpses and blood stains on the ground, he quickly left the house. After all, the sound of the battle just now was not small, and maybe there will be patrolling guards coming to check on it in a while.

Back in his room at the Felder Inn, Henry identified several magical items.

Serpent Handle:

This powerful wooden staff decorated with snake patterns has a chance to unleash deadly toxins on its opponents with every attack.

Combat Capabilities:

Whenever a successful hit hits, there is a half-chance to poison the opponent, and unless the target successfully resists, the target will continue to take poison damage for up to twelve seconds.

Ogre Power Gauntlet: "Hand of Takak"

The "Hand of Takak" is actually really Takak's hands. As he crossed the ridge of the world, he met a stranger. When he attacked, he discovered that the stranger was a wizard with powerful powers. The wizard not only defeated him. He also cut off his hands to make these gloves.

Equipment Capabilities:

The amount of force automatically reaches the limit of human beings

Two-handed greatsword: "Flame of the North"

The title does not describe the sword itself. Rather, it refers to the woman who once wielded it in the frozen wasteland of Faeron. Her name is Carrera. Like a real firestorm that swept through the polar trolls and the orc hordes of the north. She is the most hated enemy of many shamans, as they find that their spells are always as weak as a child in the face of her wrath. Her entire life was spent in the heat of battle before she was finally taken away by Immortal Time. The sword was passed on to her adventurer's granddaughter, who presumably took it to Am.

Equipment Capabilities:

Slightly increases magic resistance

Deals extra damage against Chaos Evil Faction creatures

The stats of all three magic items are quite good, much better than Henry had imagined. It seems that this strange couple must have gone through a lot of adventures, otherwise it would not have been possible to have so many magical items. Maybe they just want to live in seclusion here, but if they want to kill themselves, they will pay with their lives.

Henry didn't tell anyone about it. After a night's rest, the group continued north. After several days of traveling. Finally back at Baldur's Gate. As soon as they enter the city, they hear that the townspeople are spreading rumors that the hero who solves the iron mine crisis is Am's spy. And Shalovok has also become the supreme leader of the Iron Throne in this region, is actively involved in politics, and has a great hope of becoming the next Grand Duke.

"This bastard! Rumors are spreading against us everywhere! Apodell glared viciously at the businessman who was foaming at the mouth of the businessman spreading the disinformation.

Henry smiled and shook his head comfortingly, "Don't worry too much. These ordinary people are only misled by the rumors spread by the Iron Throne, and when Shalophok's crimes are revealed, they will naturally understand what the truth is. ”

Got a little angry, and punched the wall next to him. suddenly changed from a hero loved by everyone to a bear that everyone shouted at, and this kind of 180-degree sharp turn was still a little difficult for him to accept. Just as everyone was about to go to the Flame Fist headquarters to take a look, suddenly a group of heavily armed soldiers surrounded them.

One of the captains, dressed as a man, dispersed the surrounding crowd and shouted: "I arrest you now for murder!" Lay down your arms and follow us! Otherwise, according to Angelo. By the orders of Lord Dawson, we have the right to summarily execute you! ”

"How so! We've been employed by Skar and Duke Iltan! Is there something wrong with you? The talent of the Iron Throne is the real murderer behind the scenes! Apodell angrily shouted at the captain. He was a little confused about the current situation. It seems to have been after a trip to Candle Castle. Everything has changed outside.

The captain looked at the angry Son of Baal and sighed. Although he also knew that these people were innocent, but as an ordinary squad leader. He simply couldn't disobey Angelo, the new commander of the Flame Fist. Dawson's order. Looking at the somewhat pitiful Apodell, he finally told some recent things.

"I'm sorry, but Skar is dead. The Duke of Iltan had also been assassinated the night before and had left this world. No one can prove your innocence now, so come with me. ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, they never dreamed that the end would be such a result. Only Henry, when he heard the news of Irtan's death, showed a smile on his face, hidden under the hood. He knew that the assassins sent by Robert had finally succeeded, and that the whole story was about to enter the climax.

"The city is already shrouded in intrigues, and the new leader of the Iron Throne, Shalovk, is plotting a war that will engulf Sword Bay. As Flame Fist mercenaries, instead of stopping us, you have come to arrest us regardless of the truth? Henry pretended to be righteous and scolded the guards. Immediately after that, he unleashed the "Greasy Technique" and the "Spider Web Technique" at them.

The sudden attack caught the soldiers by surprise. While they were pinned down, Henry immediately beckoned his teammates to turn around and run. Along the squalid alley all the way south, soon the group fled into the messy and filthy dock area. Hiding in the corner of the street, everyone was gasping for air. They are in a very bad situation. The city is full of patrolling guards who can be spotted if they are not careful. (To be continued......)
