Hearing Henry's words, Apodell glanced thoughtfully at Candle Keep. He is now more and more sure that his background is very certain and not simple, otherwise there would not be so many people who will carry out assassinations one after another. Ammon searched the body of the minced flesh for a while, finding some gold coins, gems, and half of a blackened note.

It mentioned that someone was doing something big, and at the end he said that he would remember those who had helped him in the world. The subsequent signature has been burned, but Henry has already judged from this sentence that it must be Shaloferk. It seems that he is very confident in his inheritance of the killing priesthood, and has begun to recruit believers on a large scale.

Everyone simply packed up and was about to go to Candle Castle. Suddenly, a dark, panicked guy caught up from behind and shouted, "Wait! Apodell! You're Apodell, right? ”

Having just experienced a battle, everyone's nerves were a little tense. They each clenched their weapons, ready for a surprise attack. Apodell cautiously pointed his sword at the other party and shouted, "Who are you?" Why will I know my name? ”

"Don't! Don't do it! My name is Nan Ding, and I am a colleague of Zuo Nan! The man hurriedly raised his hands to show that he was not hostile.

"Zuonan? Oh, I remember, the scholar who exchanged books with me near Baldur's Gate. Apodell withdrew his weapon in a flash of realization.

Nanding suddenly saw a large pool of black whirring minced meat in front of him, the pupils of his eyes immediately contracted, and he immediately covered his mouth and ran under a tree on the side of the road and began to vomit.

After he breathed a sigh of relief, he rinsed his mouth and said to Apodell, "I'm here to ask for help." After getting the book, Zonan meets a thief at the "Burning Mage" tavern in Belgost, and learns from him that there is a team in the south that is interested in the book. After Zuo Nan heard it. Take the book to Nasikai. But after all these days, no news has come back. I felt like something wasn't right. Before leaving, he said that if something happened to him, he would let me come to Candlefort to find you. ”

"Do you remember the name of the thief?" Henry hurriedly asked.

Nan Ding lowered his head and recalled for a while before he said to himself: "That thief is called ...... Rollon. Yes, that's the name. ”

"Okay. When we're done with Candlekeep, we'll look into it and see if there's anything we can do to help. Apodell happily agreed.

Nanding hurriedly saluted. "Oh, thank you! Thank you very much. I'll be waiting for you at the Nasikai Inn to bring news from Zuonan. With that, he ran back down the avenue as fast as he could, as if he was avoiding something.

Jasila felt more and more that this matter was not simple, and that there might be some shady secret hidden behind it. However, for now, it is still necessary to focus on the task of Duke Irtan, and investigate what forces the Iron Throne is colluding with. Passing through the ground that had been smashed by the "pop explosion", everyone came to the gate of Candle Castle.

Apodell and Aemon happily chatted with the guard at the door. Then he handed over the book that he had exchanged with Zuo Nan. The man in charge of guarding the gate carefully checked it several times, and then shook his head and refused to let everyone in. "I'm sorry, Apodell. This book doesn't have any value, it's just something that some people have written haphazardly. It's nowhere near worth a thousand gold coins, so I can't let you in. ”

"How so!" Apodell felt a little crazy. "The guy named Zuo Nan said that the book was worth 10,000 gold coins. And the mages in our team didn't check out any problems, are you mistaken? ”

The gatekeeper sighed and pointed to the golden pattern on the back of the book. "See these patterns? These things block the detection of magic, so it's easy to think that the book is inscrutable, but worthless. ”

Henry glanced at the ashamed Dina Hei next to him, and laughed to himself. It seems that this Witch Rasiman does not have a very good grasp of magic patterns. Even if you don't know the plot of Lu Dao, you can see the problem with this book. Seeing that the Candle Castle was in front of him but unable to enter, Apodell was in a hurry. The last thing was Henry's proposal. Let's go look for Zuo Nan first to get back the original book.

Since there was no other way, the people did not care that it was getting late, and marched towards Belgost overnight. Their immediate priority now was to get back to the original book and go to Candlefort to find out. God knows when the people of the Iron Throne will end the meeting, and it would be too bad if they couldn't make it.

After more than twenty hours of sleepless travel, everyone finally passed through the gates of Belgoust at midnight. Thankfully, Apodell's recent reputation meant that the guards wouldn't have opened the gates at this time. They hurried straight to the "Burning Mage" tavern.

As soon as he entered, Henry took out a handful of gold coins and placed them in front of the bartender and asked, "I will immediately wonder if there is a thief named Loron here." ”

The bartender quietly slipped the money into his pocket, then pointed to a small dot in a green cape. "See that halfling running around? He is. But you better be careful, this guy lost a pair of stealth boots, so he has a very bad temper. ”

"Thank you very much. If we use some abnormal means against him, there should be no one here to stand up and obstruct him, right? Henry asked the bartender with an evil smile on his face.

The bartender shook his head with a smile. "Ha Luha, please rest assured. Even if you slaughter him here, we won't care. This damn thief went about stealing, and all the Ken people were very disgusted with him. ”

Henry made a few gestures quietly. Apodell and Aemon outflanked him from the left and right, and grabbed the two arms of the halfling and came over at once. He was very dishonest and kicked around with his feet while shouting loudly. Not only did no one come out to stop the guests who were drinking, but many people gathered around to see this guy's bad luck.

Seeing that the halfling thief was so unpopular, Henry's face once again showed an evil smile. He cast a first-level magic "Electric Claw Technique" in front of everyone, only to see a faint layer of blue electric light begin to appear on his hand, and from time to time there were electric arcs beating. Luo Long stared at the hands with a look of fear. Struggling desperately to run away.

Apodell grabbed the halfling thief's arm and threatened loudly, "If you don't want to taste the taste of being electrified." Do a good job of telling everything related to Zuonan. Otherwise...... Those hands will touch your skin in no time. ”

"You bastards! Knave! This is naked intimidation! Call the patrol. These guys are going to kill someone! Luo Long kicked his little short legs and shouted for help, hoping that there were guards outside who happened to be passing by to hear his voice.

"Hey, that's naughty. It seems necessary to give you some color to see. Henry pretended to sigh and placed two arced hands on the halfling's face. The powerful electric current quickly spread throughout the body, not only did the head of the power generation stand up, but the limbs were still twitching. His unlucky appearance immediately attracted the laughter of the surrounding guests, and everyone felt very relieved to see this habitual thief being tortured.

In order to prevent accidentally killing this guy, Henry only had a dozen seconds of electricity before releasing it. It took a long time for the halfling thieves to regain their senses. He was horrified to find that his nimble fingers were a little stiff. And the two legs are no longer at the mercy of the call.

"Oh! My hand! My leg! You wicked sorcerer! Hurry up and get them back to normal, or you'll never hear from Zuo Nan. Luo Long glared at Henry viciously and threatened.

Henry smiled and shook his head. "It seems that you don't fully understand your current situation. Do you know the way, I can torture you to death, and then abandon your body in the wilderness. Looking at the reactions of these people around them, not only would they not report to the guards, but they would also applaud loudly. So I suggest you be honest and tell everything you know. ”

Luo Long noticed the expressions of the people around him who were watching the show, and silently lowered his head. He knew that he had always stolen here, and had offended everyone. After thinking about it for a while, the halfling thief said in a helpless tone, "You have to swear. If I tell the truth, it won't hurt me. And he had to heal his wounds. ”

"I swear by the goddess of magic. But there's a premise for that, and that's that you can't lie. Henry raised a hand and made his vows to Mystra.

Luo Long breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the oath, it seems that these people are not specifically here to trouble him. He wiped the saliva that accidentally flowed out, and directly told Zuo Nan's whereabouts. "I told the guy to go to the Nasikai mines, and heard that a suspicious team wanted the book. If you're looking for him, you'd better try your luck in the mines. ”

"Damn, it's the Nasikai mine again. I hate going underground. Apodell cursed under his breath.

Henry cast two healing spells on Rollon and let him go. As soon as the halfling thief landed on his feet, he immediately rushed to the door of the Burning Mage's tavern, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. The surrounding guests found that they were not lively, and quickly dispersed to talk to each other about what had just happened, and from time to time burst into laughter.

The crowd found a table and sat down. Jasila frowned and asked Henry, "Don't you think there's something strange about this?" I think there must be some secret hidden in that book that we don't know, maybe it has something to do with some ancient legends. ”

"It's useless to think about it now. We're going to get into the Candlekeep with this book now, and we're going to get it back anyway. And I think that if you go around the bottom of the Nasikai mines, all your doubts will be solved. Henry patted Apodell on the shoulder comfortingly, and the guy was sulking in frustration.

Also a word about the update. Four shifts and 12,000 a day is really very stressful for me, and it's okay to have an occasional outburst, but it's really unbearable to say so much every day.

Finally, I hope everyone will subscribe more to support. The black robe is guaranteed to be six thousand a day, and it will never be constantly changed, and it will not be too much of a prison. (To be continued......)
