The dock area of Baldur's Gate is close to the mouth of the Chongsa River, and due to the crazy attack of the last Sawa fishman, it has not yet completely recovered its prosperity, especially the use of large airships with excellent load capacity, and the merchants who have a little capital are not willing to take the risk of going to sea by boat, they would rather spend more money and transfer to a new type of transportation that is fast and safe in the city.
No new ships were built without demand, so a large number of old canopies were abandoned and became a gathering place for hooligans, villains and thieves, who could often be heard crying and howling at night, and the surrounding residents even rumored that the ghosts of the dead fishmen could not rest in peace, and at night they ran out in droves in search of revenge.
However, it is clear that this qiē is only a means to frighten the foolish people, and it is not worth mentioning in the eyes of the truly intelligent people.
The wounded Serena endured the pain and ran into the filthy dockyard. In order to prevent her bleeding arm from becoming the target of the enemy's tracking, she actually drank a bottle of healing potion like this, forcibly healed the wound, and stuck the whole arrow in her muscles, which was extremely cruel to herself.
Not long after he walked in, a figure suddenly appeared in the shadows, and without saying a word, he put the dagger against Serena's heart: "Don't move!" Otherwise, I guarantee it will pierce your chest before the magic protection is activated. ”
Serena didn't try to resist, she hurriedly raised her hands high and whispered, "Relax, I'm my own person." Don't you see the Broken Arrow on your arm? I must see Prince Revaran right away. His plan failed. Those damned assassins have launched an all-out attack, and we must find a way to get out of here as much as possible, or we will die. ”
"Humph! Coward, this is just a temptation from the other party, and you just ran away? The dagger-wielding assassin taunted mercilessly.
"Cowardly ?!!"
When Serena heard this word, she immediately turned around like a furred cat and roared loudly: "Look at this crossbow! Open your dog's eyes and take a good look! It's not an ordinary poison arrow, it's a demon-breaking arrow that can pierce spell protection, and those people want to kill me. Am I going to wait for death if I don't run?! ”
The assassin sneered and handed the dagger in his hand forward, and the blade glowing with cold light instantly pierced a little of the skin, and blood droplets flowed down his sexually smooth back.
This warning made Serena immediately stop screaming, but her eyes were still full of anger and hatred, and she would never have swallowed it if she hadn't been restrained.
"You have failed, so you are not qualified to see His Royal Highness the Prince again. The City of Shadows doesn't need any useless people, so your life is completely over here. ”
As the last word fell, the Assassin slammed the dagger down and plunged his other hand into Serena's mouth. Grasp your tongue firmly and pull it hard. His movements are fast and ruthless, and he seems to have a lot of experience in dealing with spellcasters. It is clear how important it is to stop the other person from chanting the spell in the first place.
This beautiful woman with no low level of spell casting did not even have time to scream, and fell to the ground in a miserable death. Her heart had been drained of blood by the terrible enchanted dagger, her tongue had been pulled off, blood was gushing from the corners of her mouth, and her two big beautiful eyes were round, as if to ask why.
The assassin felt the vitality coming from the dagger, and the corners of his mouth hidden under the hood crossed a slight arc: "I'm sorry, in order to ensure that the plan can be carried out, anyone who might leak the secret must be eliminated, who made you make a stupid mistake." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the Netherworld Prince Revaran slowly walked out of his hiding place. He held a purple handkerchief in his hand and gently covered Serena's face, and sighed regretfully: "Hey, it's a pity that such a beautiful woman died like this, and I plan to invite her to join us after the plan is completed." ”
"Your Highness, she is just a target to attract attention, and after she dies, she can hide the Yellow Sparrow even deeper." The assassin put the dagger back into its sheath and bowed slightly.
"Remember, at all times, you must ensure the safety of the Yellow Sparrow, this plan would not have been possible without her. Our goddess Shar doesn't like to fail, you know? Revaran warned very sternly.
"Please rest assured, I guarantee that the Yellow Sparrow will be safe and sound, although the other party launched a large-scale investigation and purge, but in the end nothing will be obtained. Also, what are you going to do with the issue about Floating City? Our people have seen with their own eyes that the sphere exudes great power, and with its energy level, it is sure to make a city fly. The assassin said with a look of concern on his face.
As one of the most powerful thieves in the Netherworld, he knows how much of a threat the Floating City can be, so he wants to get some instructions from the prince.
Revaran smiled disdainfully and shook his head: "You don't need to worry about this matter, just leave it to Huang Que to act when he has the opportunity." Our Netherlands is powerful because of the education system and countless arcanists left over from the days of Nessreel, but Henry. What's in Angome? Just with his hundreds of crappy low-level mages? If there was a war, they wouldn't last more than a few hours before they were all killed. ”
I'm afraid he doesn't know that Henry has already obtained the shattered magic crystal "Clincinibon", and as long as he is willing, he can pull up a terrifying evil army at any time, even if he encounters it in Yin Soul City, he can't eat and walk around.
"In that case, I'll go to the city to see the damage of the other spies first, and you'd better get out of this dangerous place by boat as soon as possible." With that, the Assassin leapt into the shadows and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye. Like all of the elite of Netherworld City, he has transformed himself into a shadow physique, giving him a unique advantage in stealth.
Seeing that his right-hand man had left, Revaran took a deep breath and looked up at the city. He said to himself: "My destroyer." Hurry up and release the evil in your heart. Anger, hatred, greed, killing...... Bring a little excitement to this boring world. Otherwise, it's boring......"
After saying that, he directly boarded the small boat that had been prepared long ago, quietly bypassed the guards patrolling the river, and quickly left the area of influence of the forbidden teleportation magic, followed by opening a portal, and returned directly to the Yin Soul City, leaving only the empty boat floating around with the waves.
At the same time, a large-scale investigation in the city was nearing its end, and more than 20 people were killed on the spot. Sixty people were secretly arrested, and for a moment the Thieves' Guild's underground base was overcrowded.
The dilapidated Temple of Baal beneath the city has become lively again, it is the first time since Apodell and Shalofok settled their feud here, it is the first time that so many "guests" have been welcomed, and after a simple transformation, the ancient temple has completely become a gruesome prison, and the less daring ones can have a nervous breakdown if they stay for only two hours.
Robert was now sitting quietly in his chair, waiting for his men to bring in the results after being tortured. He turned a deaf ear to the screams and wails that echoed through the hall, and was intently trimming his nails.
"I said, dear disciple, should you explain the reason for such a big fight. You know, ten of my good hands died in this operation. Alatus asked, with a pained look on his face.
Now he was the only one in the entire guild who dared to speak to Robert in this tone. After all, at a young age, Robert had been rigorously trained under his men. So the relationship between the two is relatively close, and there are a lot less scruples when they talk.
"Why?" Robert smiled playfully. "I think you'd better keep it out of your mind, or you'll get killed. The enemy that the master has to deal with this time is not simple, you just need to do your part. ”
Alatus touched the goatee on his chin, and still asked with some reluctance: "Then you must let me know whose hands they died at, right?" Otherwise, how can I explain to my subordinates! ”
"I really want to know?" Robert put down the file in his hand, raised his head and stared at his former teacher, slowly releasing the aura unique to a legendary thief.
In an instant, everyone standing within ten meters of the surroundings felt a cold scarf in their necks, as if a deadly weapon was pressing against their throats, and they all showed fearful eyes.
Sweating profusely, Alatus swallowed his saliva and quickly showed a wry smile: "Well, it seems that it's better if I still don't know anything......"
Before he could finish his words, a bloodied torturer stepped forward and excitedly shouted, "Boss, we have figured out the identity of the first woman." She was a spy planted at Baldur's Gate by the Harper's League, along with eight other companions, all of whom we had captured. What are you going to do? ”
"Oh? It's actually a harpist......" Robert frowned slightly.
Obviously, he didn't want any head-on confrontation with the Harpists, but it seemed to be a little late. After all, in order to get a faster result, the interrogation process was extremely cruel, otherwise it would be impossible to confess so quickly with the firm will of the harpist.
Seeing the boss's embarrassed look, the torturer lowered his voice and said, "It's better to just stop doing it and kill them all, anyway, just push it on the body of the Santalin Club when the time comes." ”
Hearing such a frenzied mention, Robert hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no. After this operation, all the forces will notice us, and it is impossible to do it quietly. Forget it, clean their wounds, and bring them over, I'll explain it myself. By the way, you didn't kill or maim people, did you? ”
"Absolutely not, just peel off a few pieces of skin on her face, and the woman couldn't help but collapse first." The torturer replied proudly.
"O my God! Boy, your heart is too vicious to bear to ruin such a beautiful face. Alatus' eyes widened in disbelief.
He simply didn't know how these extremely psychologically twisted guys were cultivated, and there was no hesitation or guilt at the time of execution, and some even had a fanaticism for art.
Just when the torturer wanted to open his mouth to refute, Robert raised his hand to stop his behavior, and said to his former teacher with a smile: "I remember you said when you taught me that the real torturer must not have a trace of emotion when torturing the prisoner, only in this way can you accurately judge whether the other party is telling the truth." Don't you think this young man did it perfectly? ”
"Damn! That's just theory! Do you understand the theory?! ”
Like a rat with its tail stepped on, Alatus immediately jumped up and retorted loudly, but the eyes that kept avoiding him revealed the weakness of his heart at the moment, and the young torturer's disregard for ethics and life made him feel chills.
