Broad World

Chapter 62: Arcane Brotherhood

   Henry signaled to the butler to start serving food after hearing Hawke's report, and everyone began to eat dinner. Half an hour after the dinner was over, he said to the old captain: "Build and distribute the houses in the city as soon as possible, so that the city can start to operate on its own. The city wall can be slowly built by hired workers after the city is completed. There was a time when a lighthouse was built in the port to provide guidance to passing ships."

   Hawke said while smoking a pipe: "Good earl, I will send someone to build a lighthouse on the mountain. And we need some livestock now, cows, horses, sheep, chickens and ducks all need to buy some."

Henry heard nodded and said: "If you don't remind me, I forgot. Then you can calculate the type and quantity of the purchase in a while, and tell Shikodi about the cost and she will give you the allocation. Then you will personally lead everything. You can buy enough boats at once, and these livestock can be used as loans to distribute to the residents first, so that they can pay them off next year. Cats and dogs also need some. Although there are no monsters on the island, there are still a lot of beasts and mice."

   The old captain put his pipe away and stood up and said, "Then let's say goodbye, and I'll let someone send you the bills later."

   Shi Koudy watched Hawke leave and said to her husband: "Are you sure you want to buy so many livestock and poultry at once? This is a lot of money."

   Henry smiled and said to his wife: "These are all one-time expenses, and they will multiply on the island in the future. And have you complained about too many rats and no wagons when you go out?"

   Shi Koudi smiled playfully and said: "Okay then! I will calculate the accounts. This time I am afraid that a lot of ships will be dispatched. It is best to bring some cargo so that the ships do not run empty as much as possible."

   Henry scraped her nose and said, "I will let Kagan build more armors and weapons. There are still about a thousand sets of armors in the warehouse that can be sold on ships." After that, he stood up and prepared to leave.

   Robert suddenly stood up and walked to his side and whispered: "Master, I found a few strangers got into the sewer this afternoon. Do you need to go in and kill them tonight?"

   Henry stunned slightly, then turned his head and asked softly: "Strangers? Did they come by boat?"

The young thief kept his voice as low as possible and said: "I sent someone to search the surrounding waters and found a small merchant ship parked on the sea eight nautical miles away, but after the search, it was found empty. There was no boat passing by. It’s very likely that they have flown over."

   Henry immediately became alert when he heard the news. He felt that this matter had nothing to do with the Arcane Brotherhood. "Don't drive the boat into the port yet. I'll go to the sewer with you at midnight. See what these people are doing." He turned to his men and ordered.

   Robert lowered his head and said, "I'll keep an eye on them." After that, he turned and left.

   Henry came to the study to prepare for the night's battle. He can now be sure that there will be at least one wizard among the opponents. Fortunately, they got into the sewers, otherwise at least one street will be destroyed once a battle starts in the city. Time slowly passed. At eleven, he stood up and left the study and walked to the balcony. After a flight, he quickly flew to the location of Robert's underground guild. The young thief had been waiting here for a long time. He went up and said to Henry: "Master, I have found out their location. These people are digging holes in the sewers."

   Henry frowned and it seemed that these guys were planning to establish a stronghold here. He raised his head and said to Robert: "Don't worry about what they are going to do, now we both set out to solve them all."

   Under the leadership of Robert, the two quickly passed through the sewer. Soon Henry heard the voice of someone speaking in front of him. Both stopped and began to listen quietly.

   "Wyn, why don't we directly contact the lord here? He bought so many slaves in Luskan, he wouldn't refuse to cooperate with us, right?"

   "You are such an idiot. Didn't you see that he released all the slaves into civilians? If we rush into contact, we may expose the plans of the Brotherhood. Then the mentor will make us worse off."

   "Well, you two, if you have time to chat there, why not come over and help dig the soil. Damn! This shouldn't be the work of the mage. Why are we not allowed to bring a golem."

   "How big does the hole need to be dug? We have now dug out a hall of tens of square meters."

   "Continue to dig, we need to build an underground maze here that can hide at least five hundred people."

   "My God! You kill me. Just a few people are exhausted and can't dig such a big project. Maybe we should go back and apply to bring a few rat people over, they are very good at digging holes."

"It's a genius idea, but how are you going to bring them to the island? I'm afraid the lord here will find out these strange smelly guys. I don't want to face a powerful mage and his barbarians. . Did you see the armor worn by those barbarian patrols? I don’t think even if a fireball hits them, it won’t cause much damage. Don’t be whimsical. Now, dig hard for me!"

   "Do you think we will be promoted when we have completed the Brotherhood plan this time?"

   "I don't know whether to mention it or not, but the failure of the plan will definitely be punished severely. Have you never seen the way they deal with the loser."

   Henry decided after listening for a while, the people of the Arcane Brotherhood seemed to be building an underground base here. But the purpose is not clear yet, it seems that I want to establish some kind of connection with myself. He gestured to Robert and the two waited silently. Soon a few wizards with weak physical strength stopped digging, and after a while it was estimated that they had fallen asleep in the cave. After Robert asked Henry for permission, he slowly approached the past with the silent steps of the thief.

A few minutes later, the young thief came back. He lip-synched to Henry and said, "The people inside are all asleep. I have already lifted all the magic traps they placed." Henry nodded and gestured to start the action. . Two people walked over quietly and found that a large area had been dug up here. The ten mages all lay in sleeping bags and fell asleep. Perhaps digging a hole consumes too much energy, and they are not aware of any intruders.

   Henry took out a bottle of hypnotic potion to beckon Robert to hold his breath, then he opened the stopper and fell around the wizards. The magic potion made these tired guys sleep more dead, and Robert took all the items from the wizard. After a few minutes, all the magical items were piled aside, and Henry's motions he began to make up for these people. In the end Henry only left three people. He was going to interrogate to see if he could dig up any information. After separating the three, he asked Robert to wake one of them. This mage seemed to be about twenty years old when he was young. After opening his eyes, he found that his hands had been trapped with special techniques. There was also a short sword glowing with blue light around his neck. Then his eyes began to sweep around looking for a way to escape.

Henry walked up to him and said, "Don't look. Most of your companions have been killed by my men. I only left three prisoners including you. I hope you can answer me honestly. Question, it’s best not to lie. Otherwise, once I find out that the confession between you and the two people behind is not right, I may do something very bad for you. Now answer me who sent you here, what is the purpose, and Any other accomplices?"

   "I'm just a little guy, I don't know anything. I'm only in charge of digging here." The mage lowered his head and replied.

Henry smiled at the corner of his mouth when he heard the obvious lie. He walked over and patted the mage's face and said, "It seems that you don't believe what I said. Robert teaches him a lesson." Robert took the kit from his waist. He took out a steel needle and some threads, walked to the mage with a sneer and started to take off his clothes.

The mage began to feel that his situation had become very bad, and he shouted: "No! I said! We were sent by the Arcane Brotherhood to build a base here. They heard that the lord here bought a lot of slaves, so they wanted to turn this place into His ally ~www.ltnovel.com~ Robert stopped and watched Henry wait for instructions. Henry shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I am a promised person. You said it too late. "

   After Robert got the order, he put a thread through the steel needle and started sewing on the mage's chest. The thick needle thread pierced through the skin, muscles and ribs, the mage screamed loudly, and his voice awakened the other two prisoners. Fear and panic appeared in the eyes of one of the female wizards. Soon Robert completed the sewing process of the entire chest, and the mage was already sweating and dripping with blood. At this time, the young thief fixed the mage to the ground, and then he used a rope through the stitched thread to tie a knot. Then he walked away and suddenly yanked the rope, and the tormented mage's chest was all turned into pieces of meat. He fainted after making a huge scream.

   Henry walked over and looked at the ground meat, ribs, and beating heart, and said, "Actually, you should pull the string later. Waiting is sometimes more scary than blood."

   Robert replied blankly: "Understanding my master, I was a little anxious to practice this punishment for the first time."

   Henry patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, we have two more experimental items. But looking at their fearful eyes, I believe the subsequent interrogation will go smoothly.

Then he turned his head and said to a man and a woman lying on one side: "Did you say that I was right?" The two blocked mouths nodded desperately. In their hearts, Henry might have been able to talk to the devil and the abyss of hell. The demons are equated. ———————————————————————————————
