Chapter 243 Mobilizing the Army

Sitting on the chair in the study, Henry closed his eyes and began to go through all the plans from beginning to end. After confirming that everything was safe, he took out a few pieces of paper and wrote down several orders to mobilize the army. Cast a spell on the table, and all the notes started to burn. A few seconds later, these notes appeared in the hands of the people he designated.

Hawke, who was far away in the Bruwent City Hall, suddenly found that a note appeared in his hand at some point. He hurriedly looked at it, and found that the lord's magic mark and seal were printed on it. This is an army mobilization order, requiring the city defense army to immediately dispatch 1,000 people to gather in front of the mage tower with standard equipment.

Hawke was not the only one who received the order. Vaughan, who was training his barbarians in the barracks, Debra in the mage tower, and Mike, the leader of the annual ring of the druid organization, also received the same order. No one dared to be negligent, and immediately dispatched manpower. Soon a mixed army of 1,000 city guards, 400 barbarian heavy warriors, 20 official mages, and 25 official druids marched to the mage tower from various places.

After everyone arrived, a huge airship slowly rose from the giant pit. This is the latest generation of military airship designed by Henry himself. Not only has the load capacity and speed increased several times, but it is also stronger and more durable. Even if you encounter a crazy dragon in the sky, the magic attached to the airbag and the skeleton is enough to support you to land safely on the ground.

Seeing groups of soldiers boarding the airship with excitement, Hawk shook his head slightly. Although I don't know what happened over Baldur's Gate. However, it must be a big event for the army to be transferred once. If he remembered correctly, this was the first foreign military operation since the establishment of the territory.

Debra saw Hawk's worry and walked over with a smile to reveal a little information. "There is nothing to worry about, everything is under the master's control. What you should worry about now is how to manage a large piece of land and population once it becomes larger."

"You mean. The Earl will take advantage of the turmoil in Baldur's Gate?" Hawke was taken aback and hurriedly asked.

Debra had a playful smile on her face. She waved at the mage controlling the golem. Then he turned his head and said to Hawke: "I didn't say anything. Remember, it's best to keep these speculations in your stomach, otherwise...you should know the consequences."

The female mage's words made Hawk break out in a cold sweat. He hurriedly drove the guessing out of his mind, and forced himself not to think about it. Ten minutes later, the auxiliary airbags of the giant airship began to inflate and slowly rose into the sky. Watching the military airship heading towards Baldur's Gate, the harpist and spies from other forces staying in Bruwent quickly spread the news.

With the sudden dispatch of troops on Angome Island, the situation in the entire Jianwan area suddenly became tense. Except for a few limited allies. No one knew what Henry was planning. Now everyone is watching, waiting for this powerful earl to stand in line. Amn has sent a special envoy to privately give Henry some benefits in exchange for his support. After all, Henry is not a Sarevok without roots. Behind him are Waterdeep City and the Silvermoon Alliance. If a war breaks out, the Masked Mage Guild may not necessarily be the opponent of the chosen ones of the Goddess of Magic.

As the sky gradually darkened, Anta Yindun disguised himself and sneaked to the Earl's Mansion. Henry secretly met with this relative and friend in the study. The two discussed for a whole night, and the Duke of Silver Shield left quietly through the back door in the early morning of the next day. Robert completed the established assassination plan, and now returned to the city with the Terminator and Dark Elf assassins.

Seeing the families on the list being wiped out with blood, Henry nodded in satisfaction. "It's a good job. I asked you to secretly investigate the Alatus union and found nothing."

"I found that several of his subordinates have been infiltrated by the Iron Throne. And there is a secret door behind the union, which seems to lead deep underground. Finally, my subordinates found this in a wooden barrel." Robert took out a book from his pocket and put it on the table.

After igniting the list in his hand with a magic flame, Henry picked up the book and saw the "Quick Action Manual" written in the common language on the top row. He immediately activated the magical energy above without hesitation. A surge of energy poured into his body, and his agility instantly increased. After use, the book that was still good just now turned into dust.

"This book is very useful. Your main task now is to monitor Apodel's group and try to help them when they encounter difficulties. In addition, pay close attention to these people. If these people enter the temple of Lady Luck, you will immediately send someone to bring them to me."

Robert bowed after receiving the order, jumped from the window on the second floor and quickly disappeared into the early morning street. Henry briefly moved his stiff body, changed his appearance slightly, and came to Ramthis' Mage Tower. The necromancer was standing in front of the mage tower to attract passing adventurers, hoping that someone could snatch a water elf from a man named Richie Fast.

Henry, who was already familiar with the plot, took the task and directly used the "teleportation technique" to come to Richie Fast's home in the east of the city. Using the second-level magic "knocking technique" to solve the lock on the door, he blessed himself with several protective spells before pushing the door open and walking in. As soon as he entered the room, he heard a man's voice. "Now that I know you, I can't let you go. We are meant to be together, whether you know it or not."

"Maybe it's fate, maybe it's not. I don't want to stay in this place. There are noisy crowds everywhere, and there is no natural atmosphere." A soft voice replied.

Henry sighed slightly. It's clear that Ricky Fast has lost her mind. He is not the first mage to be captivated by the beauty of the water demon, nor will he be the last. Countless mages have spent a lot of time capturing and currying favor with this beautiful creature, hoping to win their love, but the final results all ended in tragedy without exception.

As the most beautiful creations of nature, these beautiful elves, like dryads, cannot leave the forest and lake too far. Forcibly imprisoning it can only make the vitality of the water goblin slowly drain, and finally dry up and die. As a druid, rescuing a water goblin can obtain great natural grace, and of course Henry will not let go of this opportunity.

He carefully crossed the magic trap hidden under the floor, came behind Richie Fast, and knocked out the mage who was not very conscious with one stick. The water goblin was taken aback by the sudden attack, but the druid's unique natural breath quickly calmed her down.

"Are you here to save me? Dear nature guardian." The water goblin asked curiously.

Henry took out a dagger and plunged it into the mage's neck to kill him completely, then nodded with a smile on his face. "Of course, beautiful spirit of nature. You are free now, and go home quickly."

The water goblin seemed very happy. She pointed to the mithril collar around her neck and said, "Thank you so much. Please help me take off the forbidden collar around my neck, so that I can recover my abilities and go back to the beautiful forest immediately."

Taking a closer look at the forbidden magic collar, it took Henry more than ten minutes to unlock the magic lock on it. After taking off the collar completely, the water goblin walked up to Henry, gave a grateful kiss and left a lock of magical hair, happily opened a portal and passed through.

"This is really a windfall." Henry licked his lips that still had a lingering fragrance, and smiled self-deprecatingly. He was almost fascinated by the water goblin just now, but fortunately, the power of nature belonging to the druid helped him regain his sobriety.

After letting go of the water goblin, Henry received a huge natural gift. The increase in experience points did not stop until around 50,000 points. Putting Nyx's hair in order, he goes on a sweep at Ricky Fast's house. All kinds of alchemy equipment, potions, and scrolls in the mage's house were swept away, and the simple elemental energy pool was also cleaned up, and then stuffed into the dimensional bag and taken away.

Looking at the experience value increased by more than 100,000, Henry left the house contentedly. This place can be handed over to Robert in the future as a stronghold for thieves. Next, he was going to clean up Ramasis. The elemental pool in the necromancer's tower must have stored a lot of energy, just to increase some more experience points.

Back at the door of the mage tower, Ramasis stared at Henry viciously and said in a gloomy voice: "I'm surprised! You dare to come back after betraying me?! You must know that I have several magics waiting for the water goblin's organ, and it will take a long time to find another one. You have caused me to suffer delays and losses in vain. I will take your skin as compensation!"

Henry nodded with a sneer. "What a coincidence, I have the same thoughts as you. Why don't we find a place where no one is around and have a mage duel? This way we can settle all the grievances at once."

"Good idea. I'll wait for you at the top of the Mage Tower." Ramasis snorted, turned around and opened the door of the Mage Tower and walked in.

After watching this sinister necromancer disappear, a disdainful expression appeared on Henry's face. This shameless guy actually wanted to use the power of the mage tower against him. He blessed himself with the fourth-level magic "advanced invisibility" and the third-level magic "undetectable" and walked in directly through the gate.

Under the protection of the two magics, ordinary see-through invisible roots will not work. Henry went straight to the place where the mage tower's energy was most concentrated, and soon found the element pool on the basement floor. He unceremoniously reached in with the hand with the system mark on it, turned on the maximum power to extract energy, and when Lamasis found something was wrong, the energy accumulated for decades had already been extracted.
