Chapter 247: The Spring-Hearted Son of Baal

Aberdel opened the fist of the golem and shouted at Henry with a smile: "Dude, you seem to be talking about the sore spot of this old woman. I guess her status in Sarevok's heart must not be very good, otherwise she would not be sent out to die."

After blessing two protective spells, Henry pointed to the female mage who was chanting the spell and said loudly: "That's right. Otherwise, I wouldn't sleep with this kind of old woman. Look at the wrinkles on her face and the skin that has begun to wrinkle. I'm afraid I will have nightmares if I see too much."

Hearing such vicious language, the voice of the female mage chanting spells stopped abruptly. She was so angry that she trembled all over, and her movements were severely deformed, causing the entire casting process to fail. To deal with such impatient spellcasters, psychological tactics are sometimes more effective than magic. Henry quickly summoned a sword of Mordencan, and within a few minutes, all the control centers of these stone golems were destroyed.

With a smirk on his face, Apodel chopped down the female mage who was still in a state of silence due to the failure of casting the spell. After the battle, everyone found two contact letters on her body about the assassination of the Duke at the ceremony, and it was said that the assassin was lurking in a place called "the cellar". In addition, there is a diary of Salovek's diary, which not only records the criminal evidence of the Iron Throne in detail, but also vaguely reveals that he himself is also a son of Baal.

After reading it, Aberdell was completely dumbfounded. He never thought that he and Sarevok were "brothers" anyway. After a few words of comfort, Henry carefully put away the diary, which is perfect evidence. As long as he has this diary, he and the Duke of Silver Shield will have enough excuses to stage a coup. No one can accuse them of acting too aggressively.

"This is really unexpected. Everything that happened today is actually exactly the same as the prediction made by the "wise man" Alando many years ago." Dai Nahei said in an excited voice. For a witch with a keen interest in history, it was exciting to be part of an event that shaped the world.

Apodel smiled wryly and shook his head. "Is the son of Baal killing each other? This is really ironic."

Henry smiled and patted the Son of God on the shoulder. "Don't worry, you're not the same as Sarevok. He's just a pitiful creature controlled by divinity and evil, but you not only have a respectable adoptive father, but also good friends like us who depend on life and death. Don't worry, all of us will accompany you through this path of destiny."

"That's right! I promised Gelian to protect you. Although you may be a powerful fighter now and may no longer need protection, this promise will never change." Jasila glanced at her husband and solemnly made the promise.

Apodel looked at Minsk who was having an in-depth exchange with the hamster. Then he looked at Aimon who was looking around for valuables. Suddenly, my eyes felt a little wet. He hurriedly wiped away the tears that were about to flow, and then took a deep breath.

"Thank you! It is my honor to have a group of good partners like you. Now let's quickly find these two assassins, maybe we can find some secrets that Sarevok doesn't know about them."

Aimon played with the magic ring on his hand and asked, "But the letter only contains the word cellar. There are too many houses with cellars in the whole city. Where can we find them?"

"Haha. I know this question. All the cellars that are not specifically stated are there. They all refer to the brothel in the basement of the red-faced mermaid." Henry gave the answer with a smile. Robert's union still has a lot of shares there. As the boss behind the scenes, how could he not know.

"Jiyuan!!! Take me to see it." Apodell blushed instantly with excitement. But when he saw Jasila's gloomy face, he immediately said righteously: "I mean, take us to catch those two murderers quickly. To ensure the stability of the entire Baldur's Gate area, we must conduct an in-depth investigation of this dirty place."

Imon looked up and down Aberdell suspiciously. "Are you sure? Why do I feel like you have some other purpose?"

"Haha. Then you must have heard it wrong. How can a righteous person like me have other purposes." Apodell hurriedly said haha ​​to fool him.

Henry smiled and stroked Imon's hair, and helped to identify the magic ring. Somewhat unexpectedly, this mysterious ring can actually add one to three spell slots each. Pretty good baby for a girl who was just able to cast a first level of magic.

While Imoen was showing off her magic ring, Apodell quietly approached Henry and whispered, "Dude, you have to take me to see it for a while. I haven't been to this kind of place when I grow up." He also showed a wretched smile on his face.

"I can arrange some special services for you. Of course, this will only work after the two assassins are dealt with." After speaking, Henry smiled and shook his head. I really didn't expect that the majestic son of Baal would have such an interesting side. It is estimated that he may have grown up and never touched a woman.

Apodell clenched his fists excitedly after hearing the affirmative answer. After the group left the middle of the Iron Throne, they returned to the "red-faced mermaid" along the same road. After Henry came to the counter and said a few code words, he took out a handful of gold coins and bought a few wooden signs with numbers engraved on them. Then he led the crowd into the basement along the stairs at the back, gave the guard a few gold coins, and walked into a dimly lit underground hall.

There is only one passage that is not very spacious, and there are spacious rooms on both sides. Those prostitutes who have not yet received guests are standing in front of the door, posing in various seductive poses, and constantly teasing the passing guests with words. Apodell only felt a burst of heat all over his body, and subconsciously swallowed his saliva.

Henry cleverly fended off the women who wanted to come up to solicit customers, and they quickly saw the target they were looking for along the dim corridor. This pair of assassins hired by Sarevok with a lot of money is performing a special performance in front of everyone in the central hall. The two of them kept posing in various difficult poses, and their shouts became louder and louder.

"Oh my god! It's really shameless." Dai Nahei cursed in a low voice, covering her eyes with her hands.

Henry glanced at the guests who were watching with gusto, and frowned. There is no way to do anything now, because as long as there is a fight, it will definitely reach Salovek's ears. Apodell had already forgotten the purpose of coming here, and was dumbfounded watching the fancy show that he had never seen before.

The pair of dogs and men lasted for more than ten minutes before gradually stopping. The two people sweated profusely and waved to the audience, and walked into the room naked amidst applause. Suddenly Aimon jumped up and slapped the back of Apodel's head hard. "Look! Your eyes are about to fall out!"

"Oh! Why did you hit me? So many people have watched it, so I can't watch anything." Apodelle felt that he was wronged.

Henry looked at the two who were fighting, and shook his head with a smile. "Stop making trouble, we should get down to business. Minsk and Khaled are guarding the door, and no one is allowed in. The rest of them will go in with me and capture these two guys alive. Remember, unless it is absolutely necessary, it is best not to kill them. They are important witnesses, and they will be of great use in the future."

A group of people quickly moved according to the plan. The big and round Apodel and Minsk quickly dispersed the surrounding crowd, and then several people directly kicked open the door and rushed in. The men and women who were resting on the bed did not expect that someone would rush in suddenly. Unable to prevent it, Henry quickly fixed it in place with a spell, and then put a magic-sealing collar on the woman, and tied it firmly with a rope for the man.

After simple interrogation, it was learned that the man's name was Shilisi and the woman's name was Christine. They were an Assassin couple who were employed by Sarevok. Prepare to join the doppelgangers in the crowd at the coronation ceremony three days later, and kill all influential people in the entire Baldur's Gate region, including the other dukes.

Among their clothes, Imond found a sharp backstab dagger, some magic scrolls, a bottle of King Thieves' potion, a letter from Sarevok to the two, and finally an invitation to the ceremony. The girl unceremoniously put the backstab dagger and the potion of the king of thieves into her pocket, and threw the other things on the ground.

Looking at this pair of superb dogs, Henry had a sinister smile on his face. He intends to give these two people to Robert to train for a period of time to see if they can be used as waste. After all, their professional level is not low, but their personality and behavior are too unreasonable.

After knocking the two people unconscious with a cane, Henry found the person in charge here and ordered him to deliver the couple to Robert immediately. In the evening, several sneaky thieves carried two people quickly across the street, and quickly ran towards the union's stronghold in the city.

While everyone else was busy making final preparations, Henry quietly arranged a special service for Aberdell. The son of Baal tossed with a prostitute for an hour before he walked out of the room exhausted. He patted Henry on the shoulder with satisfaction and said, "Thank you, brother. I will remember this kindness."

"It's better not to remember it. Otherwise, if I accidentally say it out one day, Jasila and Aimon will kill me." Henry hastily smiled wryly and waved his hands.

Apodel nodded deeply. "That's right! This has never happened before. Let's go, don't make other people wait too long, if they become suspicious, they will be in trouble." Then he took Henry's arm and quickly left the basement and returned to the hall.

The secretive actions of the two did not arouse the suspicion of others. Everyone got together to discuss it, and finally decided to let Henry return to the Earl's Mansion to be responsible for mobilizing the army. Others used the seized invitation letter to sneak in secretly, waiting for an opportunity to assassinate Salovek. (to be continued..)
