Chapter 78 condition
After the lord voted, everyone unanimously approved the proposal of hiring Henry and his party, and the Kelbens went to the council for further discussions. After lunch, the couple came to the door of Hawk’s house. Laila saw Ares at the door biting her tail and playing. She laughed and said to her husband: “Haha! Look at that brown bear, it’s really interesting. , But its behavior looks a little silly.”
Kelben touched his beard and smiled. “This must be the lord’s animal companion, but it does look very happy.” After the two people began to walk forward, Ares stopped the game and stood up and stared at them vigilantly. It was uneasy. Roars were issued to warn the Kelbens not to approach. The instincts of animals make Ares feel dangerous.
Kelben calmed the somewhat grumpy brown bear. “Don’t be afraid of the big guy, we are not hostile. Let me knock on the door now.”
Henry heard Ares’s growl in the living room and he immediately walked out. As soon as he went out, he saw Laila’s iconic silver hair, and there was a man with a black cane attached to her. He immediately realized who the two people in front of him were. Henry tidyed up his clothes and walked over to touch Ares to calm him down, and then bowed to the two of them. “Welcome to Master Kelben, and of course your beautiful Ms. Leila.”
Kelben looked at Henry, returning to his usual serious expression. “Earl Henry, I came to discuss some things with you on behalf of the council. Now the situation is a bit critical, let’s go in and talk.” Henry was stunned, although he had known that Kyle was one of the lords of Deepwater City. But never thought that he would be the representative of the negotiation. You must know that this legendary mage is notoriously serious, and he is known for keeping secrets. An adventurer once broke the news that he asked about the specific situation of the mission after accepting Kelben’s employment. As a result, the archmage only said nine words: you know that enough is enough. Henry couldn’t imagine what it would be like to negotiate with this voter.
invited these two legendary mages into the living room and he couldn’t wait to ask: “May I ask what happened, I think if there is no major incident, the two of you will not be invited out.”
Laila glanced at her husband. “You know the sneak attack last night, these dark elves connected to the downhill city, and they also trapped the Huiluast black robe in the mage tower. Now there is a mess below, I am afraid that the monsters there will riot. We hope If you can hire you, you can go to the downhill city to rescue him, otherwise Deepwater City will soon face a steady stream of attacks.”
Henry frowned tightly when he heard the news. This fact is too dangerous. Not to mention the huge number and variety of monsters there, the army of dark elves alone is enough to kill him a few times. Moreover, the spirit of the mad mage has not been very normal underground, if he randomly attacked himself by that time, he would be dead. Although he wanted to form an alliance with Deepwater City, if he wanted to be a cannon fodder, let’s forget it.
Thinking of this, Henry raised his head with a serious expression and said to Laila: “Sorry, madam, my ability is not enough to deal with this matter. Yamashita is too dangerous for me, forgive me for not agreeing to this request.”
After hearing Henry’s refusal, Laila turned her head to look at her husband, and Kelben lowered her head and considered for a while. “Please don’t rush to refuse, we will provide you with some necessary support for this operation. If this mission is successful, as long as you promise not to become a member of the evil camp, the spells below the legend of Lila and I will be forever for you. Open. And Deepwater City will also form an alliance with your territory.”
Henry was a little excited when he heard Kelburn’s promise. He knew what Kelburn’s magic warehouse meant. As one of the richest and most magical masters in the mainland, he possesses almost all the spells below the legend. Although this operation is very dangerous, but the wealth and wealth are in danger. After secretly making up his mind, he raised his head and asked: “Master, your proposal is very powerful. May I ask what support you provide for this operation?”
Kelben nodded. “Of course, including a scroll that can break the magic seal. By then, you only need to activate it in front of the wizard tower in the black robe of Herast, and the entire magic shield under the dark elf will disappear. There are also some deformations for disguise. The ring, you just need to bring it and it can become the shape of any human creature. This will help you sneak into the dark elf territory. Finally, you can go to my warehouse to pick two items at will and take them away.”
Henry thought for a while and asked one last question. “There is still one biggest problem that has not been solved, and that is how to ensure that I will not be attacked after the operation is successful. You know that is a legendary mage, and if he wants to make a move, I have no room to resist.”
Kelben sighed. “To be honest, I don’t have a good way, so I’ll give you a teleportation badge. If you find that he has an intention to attack, you can activate this. It will summon all creatures within 15 meters around you to my mage tower. Qian. Helast is still very sensible when he is on the ground, and we will personally negotiate with him when that happens.”
Henry took the task after getting some security assurances. Kelben took out a magic scroll and five transformation rings, and told Henry to pick two magic items at his mage tower tomorrow morning. Then he took Laila and left Hawke’s house with teleportation. Henry called out all his men to discuss, and finally decided who to act together. There are only two people, Vaughn, the Orc Warrior and Debra the Mage. Ares has no way to carry it. Its bulky size will easily be spotted when it reaches the ground.
Henry handed out the ring to the two and said to Hawke: “Sir, we are going on a dangerous journey now, and now Deepwater City is not complete. Get rid of the cargo on the ship as soon as possible, bringing Juliet, Mia, and Ares leaves the city.”
Hawke looked at Henry worriedly. “Earl, actually you don’t need to take risks. Our territory is rich enough. If we need allies, we can go to Amn. I believe they will not refuse you.”
Henry smiled. “I am not only for the purpose of forming an alliance, but more importantly, if I complete this mission, the door of magic will be completely opened as I am. In order to gain more power in the future, it is worth taking some risks now.”
Hawke saw that Henry had made up his mind and stopped dissuading him. He tidied his clothes and stood up and solemnly said: “Then I wish you all the best. I will help you deal with the territorial affairs. Please Don’t worry. How should I answer if your family asks?”
Henry stroked his chin. “Just say that I am discussing the specific matters of the alliance in Deep Water City. Don’t tell Shikoudi and my mother the specific situation.”
The old captain sighed. “Well, I will keep them secret for the time being, but please come back as soon as possible, this kind of thing will not last long.”
After dealing with the territory, Henry turned around and said to Debra who was sorting out the magic items: “How do you feel about going to the mountain city? Isn’t it nervous?”
The female mage raised her head and looked at him. “Similar to the feeling I had just joined the Arcane Brotherhood. The surrounding is full of danger and hostility. It is possible to die at any time. But I am used to it. Only in such an environment can I honed my tenacity.” Seeing Debra’s understatement. With these words, Henry no longer worried about her condition. Obviously this woman has learned how to protect herself in a dangerous environment and adjust her emotions at any time.
Orc warrior Vaughan is wiping his armor. This is the first time Henry has seen him maintain his armor. Henry patted his shoulder and said, “Are you nervous?”
Vaughn glanced in surprise and said, “Is it that obvious? I think I’m doing pretty well.”
Henry sighed and said to him: “I’ve known you for so long. It’s the first time I saw you oil your armor. Only people who are nervous can subconsciously do things that they don’t normally do.”
Vaughn dropped the armor in his hand and sat down on the chair. He touched the scar on his arm. “It’s really very nervous. I heard about the reputation of the downhill city when I was wandering in the north. Ilminster said: It is a famous place for the most famous adventurers and the greatest heroes that people know. Mound. Thousands of adventurers die in it every year. I’m not sure if I can survive.”
Henry looked at the orc warrior, his glasses were full of anxiety and worry. “Vaughan, remember what I said at the door yesterday Everything in this world can only be achieved by ourselves. Now we are about to experience the so-called adventure before, if we succeed Great wealth will be obtained, and fame will follow through the West Coast. Everyone who sees you will cheer for it. No one will discriminate against you because of race. An adventure can get so much. What are you still hesitating! What are you afraid of!”
After hearing these words, the orc warrior opened his mouth and laughed. He patted his chest. “Head, you are right. I am a soldier, and those thoughts that look forward and backward are not suitable for me. I am fine now, thank you for your enlightenment.” Henry patted Vaughan’s arm with a smile and went upstairs. rest.
The next morning, a group of people came to the mage tower in Kelben. Laila took Henry to the storage warehouse. She pointed to the huge warehouse and said, “You can choose two of all the magic items here. After you choose them, you can take your friends and leave. In addition, this is a teleportation badge for you. , Activate it if there is a danger.”
Henry took the badge and said to her: “Don’t worry, madam, I will complete this mission.”
Laila pinned a strand of her hair behind her ear. “Don’t be aggressive, return first if you are in danger. I don’t want to kill an innocent person because of this.”
Henry smiled. He put the badge next to him. “I will do what I can. Taking risks and performances is not my style.” After speaking, he began to turn around the warehouse, carefully selecting every magic item.
