Broad World

Chapter 288 The curtain slowly opened

In just one night, the Shadow Thieves Guild suffered huge losses. Not only were many strongholds completely destroyed, but also many underground black markets were forced to stop trading due to lack of manpower. Early in the morning, in the basement of the union headquarters, the titular leader Alan Linville and the behind-the-scenes boss Renault Bloodhead were discussing how to deal with the sudden enemy.

"Damn it, where did these guys come from? It only took them a few hours to break through more than 20 peripheral unions in the city, and now many members are too scared to go to the streets." Ellen Linville cursed loudly while sitting at his gorgeous desk. Although he is just a puppet on the bright side, if the shadow thief guild collapses, the end will be miserable.

Renault Bloodhead stroked the stubble on his chin, and carefully read the information sent by his subordinates. As a member of the Shadow Council of Six, he has extremely rich experience and the means to deal with crises. Judging from the few pieces of information in front of him, the opponents are obviously some vampires. Because many of the dead have been sucked dry of their blood, and there are obvious signs of being corroded by negative energy. Judging from the attitude of killing them all, the enemy obviously didn't just want to make a fortune, otherwise there would be no need to do so.

"Immediately inform everyone that we will enter a state of war from tonight. In addition, let Arcanis lead the assassin team to search for prey in the streets, and execute them on the spot if found. I want to see who is hiding behind. This matter is not as simple as you think."

After hearing this sentence, Ellen was taken aback. "Enter a state of war!! Are you sure?! You must know that many businesses of the trade union will be affected, and our current funds will not last long at all."

Renault sighed helplessly. "You don't understand. The enemies this time are very powerful. Their purpose is probably to snatch the control of the entire underground world. Don't think about gold coins, take out all the magic items in stock. If we lose this war, I'm afraid we will lose our lives."

"Understood. I will take out all my inventory to recruit people, and Arcanis will start to act tonight. I hope the enemy won't pee their pants in fright after seeing his skills. After all, legendary thieves are rare." As he spoke, Alan picked up a pen and wrote a string of code words that others could not understand.

At the same time, in the sewers of the Askatla shopping mall, Joan Irenicas was conducting experiments in front of a cage made of pure gold. Ever since he caught Apodel and his party, he conducted brutal tests on the two Sons of God. Now Apodell has wounds all over his body, and a lot of skin and muscles have been scorched. If it wasn't for the divinity to support it. I'm afraid he's already dead.

As for Imen, he became a Slayer the moment the test started, not only killing a large number of gray dwarf slaves, but also causing Joan Irenicus a big loss. She is currently being locked in a magic cage made of fine gold, and any hostile person who approaches will immediately trigger a transformation effect. Although the duration is short, it is enough to tear a person into pieces.

"This is really a wonderful discovery. Boys with more divinity didn't show much talent. On the contrary, this girl in front of me has fully stimulated her potential." Joan Irenicas stared at the manic Aimeng and said to himself.

During these days, he had a general understanding of the Slayer. First of all, using this transformation will consume a lot of physical strength and vitality, and secondly, you will completely lose your mind after the transformation. Even with so many shortcomings, it is difficult to hide its powerful essence. You must know that the pair of sons of Baal in front of them are still very young, and they have not learned how to control this force at all.

Joan Irenicus believes that as long as he can develop a method, stripping the divinity from the bodies of the two sons of God will surely restore his incomplete soul. When I think of the split soul and my former lover, Alison Queen of the Elf. He felt a burst of unforgettable pain and hatred. revenge! I must go back to Sodannisra and destroy the city. Elf gods, just watch! He let out a silent cry in his mind.

After making up her mind, Joan Irenicas continued to start a new experiment. Extracting the divinity of a Son of Baal is not something that can be done just by talking, after all, it is something that is rooted deep in their souls, and the difficulty is extremely high beyond imagination. As if since the beginning of recorded history. No one has succeeded yet. However, he is very confident in himself, as long as he can solve how to split the soul, he will be able to obtain the divinity inside.

Henry didn't know what happened to Askatla recently. They're still a day or so away from the city, though they've already used a "swarm teleportation" once. Despite the permission to cast spells issued by the masked mage, it is still a bit inappropriate to openly use magic near the city gate.

Along the main road, three people and a golem walked unhurriedly. Passers-by and caravans couldn't help but cast their eyes here after seeing it. No way, whether it is the coquettish Sandy or the intellectual Hina is enough to attract the attention of a large number of opposite sexes. Fortunately, the sorcerer's demonic features were concealed by spells, otherwise there might have been some riots.

In the evening they returned to Askatla through the gates. Henry noticed that the people on the street were hurrying, as if they were anxious to get home before dark. Although he had guessed what was going on mentally, he still grabbed a businessman's arm and asked in a low voice, "I'm sorry to bother you. May I ask what's going on today? Everyone is rushing home?"

"What's wrong? This is a trade union war! I heard that someone launched a challenge to the Shadow Thieves Union and pulled out countless strongholds overnight. This is the biggest thing in recent years besides the closure of ocean trade. It is said that many forces have been involved in it. I advise you to find a hotel before dark, or you will lose your life if you get involved in a fight."

"It's finally started! It's really exciting!" Henry looked at the back of the businessman and let out a sigh. He is clearly aware that the plot has already begun, and now everything is going smoothly when the shadow thieves find Joan Irenicas's underground laboratory.

Shandier leaned over and asked curiously: "Master, what has finally started? Are we also going to participate in this underground war?"

Henry smiled and shook his head. "Don't worry, wait for them to fight for a while. I mean the wheel of history is rolling forward. I don't know how many people will be crushed and knocked into the air this time."

"You mean Alando..." Sandyer covered her mouth immediately after speaking, with a shocked expression on her face. She had seen Apodel with her own eyes, and knew that her master valued the son of Baal very much.

After taking a deep breath, Henry's eyes revealed excitement. A series of monsters such as dark elves, demons, beholders, mind flayers, dragons, githyankis, liches, vampires, and earth hulks will appear one by one. Mysterious places such as underground cities, ancient dimension balls, forgotten underground temples, beholder lairs, and the underwater city of sahuagin will also slowly unfold.

It can be said that this world is revealing its most mysterious corner, what he has to do is to collect what he has as much as possible to prepare for the final battle of the Conferred Gods. As for the demon prince "Demogorgon" who was imprisoned at the bottom of the fortress, let's talk about it after Joan Irenicus died.

After all, it was also the projection of the most powerful demon lord in the bottomless abyss. Even if he is heavily suppressed on the main plane, he is comparable to the incarnation of a medium divine power. At least Henry would never go there until he mastered the legendary spell. It is estimated that the colorful demons on the second floor alone would make him scramble.

"You have to be prepared, because the end of this journey is likely to involve a battle of gods. Do you understand what this means?" Henry asked in a low voice, staring into the eyes of the sorceress.

Sandy nodded with a serious expression. "Understood. Please rest assured, I will be able to become a legendary warlock in half a year at most, and I will definitely not be delayed by then."

"What are you guys discussing? It's mysterious." Hina leaned over and asked curiously. Although she vaguely heard a few words, it was difficult for others to understand such endless words.

Henry smiled and shook his head and replied: "It's nothing, just discussing who is challenging the Shadow Thief. Let's go. There is my hotel in front, and we will stay there tonight." He took the lead and walked ahead.

Ten minutes later, the group finally arrived at the Garden Hotel. After a few weeks of trial operation, it is much better than before leaving. At least half of the guests in the lobby on the first floor are already seated. It seems that this poor girl is doing a good job. Although I don't know how much profit there is, at least I won't lose money.

Hina stared blankly at the hotel in front of her. Completely speechless. For her who has never left the small mountain village, this building is too luxurious. Especially the sky garden on the top is designed like a fairyland. Longnu couldn't even imagine how much it would cost to stay here for one night. You must know that she is now penniless.

Seeing Hina's embarrassment, Henry pretended to kiss her hand and asked, "This beautiful lady. I wonder if I'm lucky enough to invite you to have dinner with me?"

"For the sake of your sincerity, okay. Remember to order a few more dishes. My appetite is terrible." Dragon Girl joked while holding his arm.

As soon as he walked into the hall, Geweila found his boss. She hurriedly dropped the account book in her hand and ran over and bowed. "Sir, you are back. In a few days, I don't know what to do."

"What? Someone is looking for trouble?" Henry asked, frowning. If there is someone who doesn't open his eyes, he doesn't mind letting the other party evaporate directly.

Ge Weila hurriedly smiled and waved his hands to explain: "It's not what you think. The biggest trouble I have now is how to deal with the profits I earn every day. You must know that the garden restaurant on the top floor of our business is very hot, and it has made thousands of gold in just three weeks. It is not safe to store such a large amount of money in an ordinary cabinet. I suggest you order a safe."
