Chapter 294: Shadow Thief's Counterattack

At nightfall, vampires and shadow thief, as always, began to fight for control of the underground world in the streets of Ascatla. Due to the vampire's harassment, many people who were afraid of death quietly surrendered to the vampire. Renault Bloodhead frowned as he watched the bad news coming back one by one. He knew very well that if he didn't dig up the traitor, the entire guild would be dismembered alive in a month or two.

I have to say that the tactics developed by Badi are very successful. The vampires attacked the shadow thieves while taking in the defectors. This is also one of the reasons why the temple and the Knights did not really intervene even though they started investigating. They wanted to wait for the shadow thief to fall before taking action, eradicating the city's underground power in one fell swoop.

Just when Renault was considering whether to ask the "Shadow Council" for help, suddenly, a thief appeared in front of him quietly.

"Boss, I have already investigated. Maiwa has completely betrayed the union. He secretly helped the vampire make a big deal more than a month ago without telling us."

Renault couldn't wait to get up from his chair and asked, "Quickly talk about the specific situation! To know the current situation of the union and not very good, we will lose a lot of manpower every night."

"The son of Maiwa, who helped a mage named Joan Irenicus arrest a group of adventurers from Baldur's Gate a month ago. According to information from Dao, one of them He is the heir of Baal, the **** of slaughter. And the vampire who was in charge of contacting Maiwa at that time, I think there must be a lot of ulterior secrets between them." The thief 155 said all the news he had found out.

After getting the name of the betrayer, Renault was not as furious as others thought. Instead, he sat back on the chair and showed a playful smile. After a few minutes, he instructed the thief: "Now let’s find out the power in the launching station. Where are these captured adventurers locked up. As for Maiwa, don’t act rashly. We have no extra power to launch it. The interior is cleaned."

"Okay, boss. I promise to find them out tomorrow morning." The thief quickly left the Shadow Thief headquarters.

"Son of Barr, haha, this is really an unexpectedly good helper." Renault muttered to himself. As the ruler of the underground world, he knew very well what kind of power the Son of God possessed. These guys are born with divine power, whether they are learning magic or martial arts, they are a hundred times faster than ordinary people. The most important thing is that they have huge potential, once they are oppressed by the external environment. It is likely to explode ten times or even a hundred times more destructive power.

After more than three hours, the thief who was in charge of inquiring about the news returned to the Shadow Thief headquarters with a piece of parchment. He came to the leader's desk and immediately opened the map.

"Boss, I have found the other's lair. The brothers near the mall said that they can often hear screams from the sewers inside. They tried to detect them, but they all died without exception. In the hands of the magic trap."

Renault glanced at the map and nodded in satisfaction. "It's done very well. Now organize the manpower. Launch a surprise attack here at dawn. Remember, as long as you bring out the enemies inside, it's fine to let the masked mages get headaches for the rest."

"Hey, I understand. Don't worry, I will definitely drag the Masked Mage Guild into the water." The thief smiled sinisterly and immediately went to execute the leader's order.

Looking at the back of his men leaving. A smug smile appeared on Renault's face. He felt that his plan was simply perfect. Not only could he sell a favor to the Son of Barr, but he could also get this mage named Joan Irenicus to be arrested. Although I don't know what the relationship between him and the vampire is, it doesn't matter anymore. There is no precedent for the prisoners who were sent to the Forbidden City by the masked wizard to escape.

The next morning, the sky was just getting dark. The Shadow Thieves Guild Assassin who ended the night of fighting did not return to his residence to rest. Instead, it was transferred directly to the sewer entrance in the north area of ​​the shopping mall. After the person in charge of the operation made a few gestures, the assassins hid in the Shadow Sutra and hid themselves. They entered the sewer silently. But after a few steps, I heard a "click", followed by a fireball bounced from the ground and exploded.

The high-temperature flames and air waves instantly killed three people, and another four or five people were affected to varying degrees. The face of the person in charge became ugly, because so many elite thieves didn't even notice the trap just now. This means that the enemy's methods are very superb, and the road to the inside is estimated to take human lives.

At the same time, Henry, who had just gotten up, received an anonymous letter in front of the counter in the lobby on the first floor. He carefully used the "hand of the wizard" to take it apart, and he was relieved when he saw the unique mark belonging to Robert. The letter said nothing else, it was the Shadow Thieves Guild that launched the raid against Joan Erinikas.

Hearing this news, Henry immediately packed his equipment, and even Hina and Shandi went straight to the mall area without notice. He didn't want to miss this wonderful opening, and he was a little worried about Imoen's recent situation. You must know that turning into a slaughter is a heavy burden on the body, and I hope that there will be no accidents.

To get from the city gate to the shopping mall, you need to pass through a large area of ​​slums in the middle. Walking down the street, Henry suddenly heard passers-by talking about the western part of the area, and suddenly a huge sphere appeared out of thin air. It is said that the Masked Mage Union has begun to intervene, and I believe this matter will be resolved soon. Hearing these people's discussions, a slight smile appeared on his face, and it seemed that the dimensional ball had also returned to the plane of the main material. Now all the stages have been set up, only waiting for the son of Baal to appear and embark on a vigorous adventure.

As soon as he entered the mall area, Henry noticed a riot in the distance. A large number of thieves are fighting with golems, goblins, and gray dwarves, and they have messed up all the shops in the northwest area. Because the shadow thieves are crowded and the monsters are retreating steadily, it seems that they will all be wiped out soon. At this moment, suddenly a golem gave up the fight and turned around and ran towards the sewer. This move opened the eyes of the thieves. Generally speaking, alchemy creatures are always fighting and fighting, and this is the first time I have seen this kind of running away.

Only Henry knew that this guy ran back to report to Joan Erinikas. In order to avoid direct contact with this powerful mage, he directly blessed himself with a "stealth technique" to follow far behind. After all, the sewers here extend in all directions. If there is no one to lead the way, it would be impossible to find the underground laboratory without spending a few hours.

Along the way, he saw a lot of bodies, brains, arms, arms and legs soaked in jars. What is surprising is that these organs and limbs are still alive, and many of them retain independent thoughts and personalities.

When following the golem through a garbage disposal room, Henry almost spat out. Hundreds of corpses and stumps were dropped here, and a huge scum monster was eating the things on the ground that would be nauseous at first glance. The rancid and **** smell matched the unbearable picture, which is simply not normal. People can bear it.

Soon, the golem came to a room full of cages. Henry saw from a distance, a man with a muscular build and a bruised face was conducting magic experiments on the people in the cage. You don't need to guess or know that it must be Joan Erinikas, because he has an obvious feature that he has no ears. As an exiled sinner, all the elven characteristics of him have been stripped of him. As the iconic pointed ears of the elven race, of course it is no exception.

After listening to the report of the golem, Joan angrily opened a portal to destroy these pesky mice. Just as he left, a thief suddenly sprang out of the shadows and ran straight to the cage where the prisoners were held. But this guy was obviously unlucky and touched a magic trap. A face suddenly appeared on the ground, and it was blown to pieces by powerful magical energy.

In order to avoid repeating the mistakes of the thieves, Henry directly opened the magic "detection trap". I saw dense red light everywhere around the cage, and there were more than fifty magic traps in a place less than 400 square meters. It seems that Joan does not pay much attention to the Son of Baal, and just setting up so many traps will cost a lot of alchemy materials.

Henry had no time to waste at all, so he directly blessed himself with a "flying technique" and flew forward from mid-air. Soon, he found the fine gold cage in which Imoen was imprisoned around the corner. Because of the long-term inability to see the sun, the girl's face looked very pale~www.ltnovel.com~ and the clothes on her body were also tattered and could only barely cover the important parts. However, her positive and optimistic spirit has not been lost, and now she is gently flicking the door lock with a small wire.

"Hey, charming girl, don't waste your effort. This is a magic lock, you can't tap it with a wire." Henry smiled and said hello. He could see that although the girl had been tortured a little, fortunately, the things that worried him the most did not happen.

Imoeng was taken aback by the sudden sound, and hurriedly put the wire in the middle of his thigh and hid it. But when she saw Henry, she jumped up happily. "Oh my God! You finally came. Quickly unlock this **** lock, I can't wait to get out and get some sun."

After Henry performed the "Dispelling Magic" and "Percussion", only a "click" sound was heard, and the cell door opened automatically. The girl rushed out of the cage and gave him a passionate kiss. The two greedily kissed each other and caressed each other. After a long while, he was reluctant to separate.

I don't know if it was because of fear or because of excitement, Imeng's body was trembling constantly. Henry gently stroked her hair and comforted him: "Don't be afraid, I am here. You are safe now." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point () to vote for recommendation and monthly pass. Your support is my biggest motivation.
