Broad World

Chapter 763: intelligence

"Your Majesty, if you don't mind, I would like to find a place where no one is going to talk to you alone."

Bishop Eugene did not know when he came to the front, and a sentence pulled Henry from his meditation back to reality.

A meaningful glance at the slightly blessed middle-aged nobleman, Henry lowered his voice and asked: "Then, do you represent the noble goddess Shinworth at this moment, or the lord alliance led by Deepwater City?"

You should know that the brown dragon Ottagos had already observed clearly what this guy did along the way, and the other party seemed to have no intention of hiding his identity, so he deliberately picked out the words to see what the Lords Alliance really did. What is the intention.

"Is there any difference?" Eugene asked with a smile and spread his hands. "The League of Lords is to ensure that the interests of the orthodox nobles are not violated. The goddess is also the protector of the nobles, so the two do not conflict, but can be closely linked, rely on and cooperate with each other."

As he said, he showed a peculiar button on the neckline. A golden crown pattern is engraved on it, which is the symbol of the League of Lords.

The League of Lords, also known as the Council of Lords, is a lawful and kind-hearted group initiated and led by Deepwater City. After so many years of development, it has successfully united the two famous cities in the North, Silvermoon City and Neverwinter City. In addition, there are countless scattered towns, forming a collection of military, trade, magical power, etc. A series of alliances, even the attitude towards monsters is similar.

What is interesting is that the alliance treaty stipulates that, regardless of their status outside the alliance, members are equal when discussing internal affairs.

Sounds familiar, right?

That's right, it looks exactly like the UN Charter.

However, unlike the United Nations, which is manipulated by several gangsters, the rule that the League of Lords is indeed the enforcer has not been broken since its inception. It is for this reason that all towns that do not have much expansion ambitions have chosen to join. Fight the enemy together. Share the profits from trade.

Of course, this also means that those small towns with about a thousand people will also enjoy the same rights as Deepwater City, Silvermoon City, and Neverwinter City. Together, they can even force them to make concessions in certain areas.

Since its establishment, the League of Lords has repeatedly frustrated another famous city in the north, Luskan and the Arcane Brotherhood’s ambitions to expand abroad, and it has not hesitated to attack the Sandalin Club and the Shadow Thief stronghold in Amn. Said to be the most famous ruling alliance in the North. It is because of their suppression that wars rarely break out.

Henry considered it for a few minutes, then stood up and made a please gesture: "Let's talk on the outside balcony. There should be no one there."

"Whatever you want, I'm never picky about the place of conversation." Eugene stood up quietly, hiding the peculiar button under the collar by the way.

The two quickly passed through the dense crowd in the hall, and opened the door a few minutes later. Came to a remote balcony on the second floor.

The night in December is very cold. The roaring north wind can blow a person to the heart in minutes. Coupled with the small snowflakes floating in the sky, the chill instantly becomes heavier.

The icy wind made Eugene shrink his neck, tightening his cloak hard, and looking around, until he confirmed that there was nothing around him, he let out a sigh of relief. Cursed in a low voice: "This **** ghost weather, since you already know my identity, let me make a long story short. The Lords Alliance asked me to test if you have any intention to join. Don't rush to refuse, we get a piece of information. A group of people of unknown origin have already lurked at Baldur’s Gate. If we agree, we can provide the exact location."

"As far as I know, the intelligence sources of the Lords Alliance seem to come mainly from hired adventurers and spies, right? How do they determine that these people are directed at me?" Henry asked with a joking smile.

Although the intelligence network of Baldur's Gate is not as tight as Angkor Island, it is not easy to escape. He did not believe that the League of Lords could compare to his thieves' guild in this respect. The most important thing is that he does not intend to become a member of the Lords Alliance at all.

Imagine a king with a population of millions and a mayor with only a few hundred people sitting on an equal footing, sitting together to discuss political and economic issues. It sounds ridiculous. The vision and strength of the two parties are not on the same level. Such a thing. Only those paladins and believers of the **** of justice who have water in their heads can do it.

Henry's goal was to transform neighboring countries into vassals through trade, and he could not go with the lords alliance at all. What's more, he didn't have the time to wrestle with the rulers of those small towns, and he might as well conduct some magical research at that time.

Eugene did not see the perfunctory expression in Henry's eyes, and explained to himself: "These people were first discovered in Locke Town in the east of Deepwater City. According to the local spy report, they passed through the Ash Peak mountain range. From wearing Dressing up and dressing up inferred that it is likely to be walking down the black road through the Ennook Desert, without making any stops along the way, until after entering the Baldur’s Gate, the disguise changed and lurked down."

Speaking of this, he took out a letter from his arms: "Obviously, this squad is here for you, and the closer it gets to the city, the more cautious it is, as if for fear of disturbing someone. This letter records it. After checking their activities within half a month, as long as you nod your head and agree to join the Alliance of Lords, you can immediately get the information inside."

"Enook Desert?!" Henry's face instantly became a little ugly.

There is no doubt that there is only one way for the guy who can come out of the Ernook Desert and target himself, and that is the ghost city that is about to return. Only this place where most of the city is full of lost ladies believers can go so far.

But the most troublesome thing now is that he doesn't know the purpose of this squad, whether it is to prepare for the upcoming battle for the Throne of Killing, or has ulterior motives. Who is in charge of this operation?

You must know that it is a floating city that has completely preserved most of the legacy of the Netheril era. A legendary mage alone can pull out a dozen, and Terramant Tanshur is not comparable to an ordinary legendary mage. Although he did not stand out in that glorious era, even in the middle of the Great Arcanist, he was enough to crush most opponents now.

The most important thing is that God knows if this old guy will have friendship with the terrifying spellcasters left over from the Netheril era like Lavok, Ovo, and Iolum. Once they unite again, even the gods will Feeling scared, killing one or two gods is not a problem for them.

of course. In addition to this, there is another character that makes Henry very uneasy, that is, the "Earth Prophet" Asindo, who is hidden in the depths of the great desert.

Perhaps now most mages, scholars, and even gods do not remember his name, and some people think that he has completely disappeared with the fall of Netheril civilization.

But Henry knew very well that this male Saruk witch witch is still alive, and possesses the most powerful spellcasting ability on the main plane. Compared with himself, it is almost like the difference between an adult and a child, even the goddess of magic at Midnight. They don't necessarily understand the nature of magic better than him.

Take a look at this long list of titles that have disappeared in the long river of history!

Opener of Netheril civilization!

The holder of the Netheril scroll!

The guardian of the capital Orem, the Sarukh witch!

He taught humans how to learn and use magic. He personally solved countless problems in the early days of Netheril. He personally warned of the crazy plan of the goddess of magic Karthus, and he witnessed the decline and demise of the great magical civilization with his own eyes.

In short, this is not only the main plane, but it may also be the most difficult caster in the entire multiverse. Even at the same time, it is not inferior to horrible creatures such as Guanglong. It is said that there is only a team of six professional levels above fifty. The deity can defeat or kill it.

Henry even suspected that the discovery and theft of the Netheril scroll was planned by the "earth prophet" Asindo, with the purpose of destroying the enemy of the Saruk witchcraft-Fehlin Mokui.

But it's a pity. His plan ultimately failed. The Netheril people failed to stop this energy-absorbing monster. In the end, it was the Spirit of Saron who invented the method of imprisoning them. This allowed Faerun Continent to escape the disaster, otherwise the whole The world will be as dead as the Ainok Desert.

"I hope it won't be the earth prophet Azindo..." Henry took a deep breath and muttered to himself. He is not yet ready to face such a terrible enemy, and if he can, he will never be an enemy of such a powerful spellcaster.

"What were you talking about? Did you guess the identity of this group?" Eugene asked very curiously.

Henry turned his head and nodded with a meaningful smile: "Yes. I guessed their identities and almost knew what their purpose was. If the Lords Alliance needs it, we can exchange information with each other."

Eugene was taken aback for a moment, and then a look of astonishment appeared on his face: "So you don't plan to join the League of Lords?"

"Yes, some systems of the alliance are not in the interests of the kingdom, so I can only say sorry. But cooperation is still okay, especially in terms of protecting business travel and maintaining regional peace, so that all residents can live and work in peace." Henry Put your own reasons in a high-sounding way. At the same time, it also gave the opponent an easy step.

"Well, I will pass these words on to the Alliance." Bishop Eugene, who was so sophisticated about humanity, owed him a little, and did not show any dissatisfaction because of his refusal.

It is not the first time that he has received similar rejections, especially those powerful rulers who seldom agree to join the Alliance of Lords. The most obvious example is the Kingdom of Cormyr ~www.ltnovel.com~ The alliance has been dispatched five times. The messenger wanted to persuade the royal family to join in, but they were rejected without exception, because they were proud that they could not bear that they were on the same level as the small town.

"Then what about the information exchange I just mentioned? Don't the Lords Alliance want to know the identities of these people? I promise the answer will not disappoint you." Henry pretended to be mysterious.

In fact, he just wanted to know what the squad from all over the world did. After contacting those people, only by obtaining this information can we analyze the purpose of the other party and respond accordingly.

Regardless of the form of struggle, intelligence will always come first. Especially this kind of secret confrontation is even more so. Who can grasp the enemy's movements faster and more timely, who can take the initiative, and have more hope of winning the final victory.
