Broad World

Carefully observing the situation outside, Jasila turned his head and whispered to everyone: "It seems that we have been wanted. There are patrolling Flame Fist soldiers everywhere outside, which is more than three times the usual number. We must dismantle Salovek before he becomes the Duke, otherwise we will have to prepare to flee for our lives."

"This group of bastards! I must expose the true colors of the Iron Throne! And that Sarevok who dared to plot against us will have to pay the price!" Apodel stomped his feet in anger.

Just when Henry was about to say something, two thieves suddenly came out from the shadow of the alley. The head guy had a cynical smile on his face, and he walked in front of everyone and took off his hat exaggeratedly.

"I am very sorry to bother you. First of all, please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Mark and I am currently employed by the Iron Throne. I know that you have a very strong interest in destroying this organization, but it is this that makes it very difficult for us. The main purpose of coming today is to give you a warning, do not try to investigate anything related to the Iron Throne, or the next time you see me, it means everyone will die."

Apodel laughed angrily. His two eyes were glowing red, and his whole body exuded an aura of death. "Hahahaha! First framed all of us as criminals, and then sent someone to warn us not to allow us to continue the investigation? You two lackeys of the Iron Throne! Get ready to die!"

Mark and his accomplices saw the son of Baal rushing up with weapons raised, and immediately drank a bottle of invisibility potion and disappeared in place. By the time Dai Nahei used Detect Invisibility, the two thieves had already disappeared. The Son of Baal spat fiercely on the ground and cursed: "Bah! How can you scare me like this? Two lifeless idiots! If you dare to show up again next time, you won't be as lucky as today."

"Don't pay attention to those two little thieves, let's discuss what to do next. Duke Irtan is dead now. The only ones who can stop Salovok are the two Dukes Anta Silver Shield and Lina Janas. If we want to bring down the Iron Throne, we must contact one of them." With a wry smile, Jasila analyzed the current situation for everyone.

Henry waved his hand immediately when he heard her words. "Although your analysis makes sense, it's better not to get in touch with Lena Janus. As far as I know, she is actively promoting Salovke to become the new Duke, and this woman is also one of Duke Irtan's political enemies."

"So our only hope is the Duke of Anta Silver Shield?" Dai Nahei frowned and asked.

Henry first smiled and shook his head, then pointed to himself. "And me. Although I don't want to admit it, I am indeed a nobleman in Baldur's Gate after the Duke. As a field earl, I still have some influence here. And the Duke of Anta Silver Shield and I are political allies. As long as we join hands, we should be able to fight against Sarevok.

"Wow! This is the best news I've heard in a while!" Aberdell rushed over and gave Henry a hug. "Then what are you waiting for! Act now! I can't wait to see what Sarevok looks like after his failure, and I'm cutting off his flesh piece by piece with a sword."

"Things are not as simple as you imagined. Now the merchants and nobles in the area around Baldur's Gate have been attacked by mysterious assassins. Almost all the administrative systems have been paralyzed. Salovek blamed these faults on Amn, but I think this must be another conspiracy of his. So you need to continue the in-depth investigation. I will contact Anta Silver Shield as soon as possible to try to win allies to prevent this guy from becoming a duke."

Henry did not hesitate to pin Robert's assassination on Salovek's head. Anyway, this guy is not itchy when there are too many lice, and no worries when there are too many debts. At that time, as soon as he dies, everything will come to an end. Anyway, in the eyes of the world, the sons of Baal are dangerous guys, and no one will find it strange to make any crazy moves.

Jaheira sighed slightly. "Hey, all our hopes are pinned on you. Sarevok's war plan must be stopped, or the entire Sword Coast will be littered with corpses."

"Don't worry, I will do my best. Also, when I'm away, remember to keep an eye on Apodel and Imon. One of them is impulsive. The other likes to stir up trouble." Henry waved his hand to the crowd, and walked towards the earl's mansion with the scroll golem.

Looking at the back of Henry going away. Jasila patted the dust off her body and said to Apodel, "Let's go, it's time for us to take action. Taking advantage of the cover of night, go to the headquarters of Flame Fist to check the situation." She put on her hood and went into a remote alley.

As soon as he returned to the Earl's Mansion, Henry dispelled the magic and returned to his original appearance. He first sent someone to invite Duke Anta Silver Shield, and also sent a signal to Robert. After finishing these things, I went to the basement to see the progress of Shandier's experiment. As soon as the door to the basement was opened, an extremely bloody and pungent smell rushed over. There are more than 30 naked girls nailed to the wall here. Not only are they pale, but they also have fangs that are unique to vampires.

"Sandy! Now I'll give you five minutes to explain what happened here. If the answer doesn't satisfy me, you will know the consequences yourself." Henry scanned the entire basement with cold eyes, and finally stopped on the face of the sorceress. If this woman can't give him a satisfactory answer, then a mental whiplash is indispensable.

Putting down the ongoing experiment, Sandyer hurried over and knelt down to kiss her master's boots. "Great master, I have already researched how to use the blood of ancient vampires to create new vampires. Although they are still a little out of control, I have found a breakthrough. I believe that it will not take long to have a steady stream of loyal and reliable vampire servants."

Henry frowned when he heard the news. As a druid, he was somewhat disgusted with undead creatures. However, as a soul from the 21st century of the earth, practicality is the only criterion for measuring value. He walked over to the struggling vampire girl and observed carefully, and found that although these newborn vampires were a little manic, they were still intelligent.

"I remember that vampire rat from last time had no intelligence at all. How do you get the energetic blood to transform the bodies of these girls without destroying their brains? And how do you make sure they never betray?"

Sandy Er saw that Henry was not angry, and a stone in her heart finally fell to the ground. She got up from the ground and walked to a glass container, pointing to the girl inside and explaining: "Master, I use low temperature to slow down the blood flow. This way, the blood of ancient vampires can be transformed slowly, so that the brain will not be damaged by violent power."

Henry glanced at the negative energy gathering inside and nodded slightly. Lowering the body temperature slows down the blood flow in the body, and most people living on the earth in modern times know this. However, as a Faerun whose knowledge is only spread among a few people, Sandyr can discover this method by herself, which is indeed a rare talent.

"Master, let's look at this again." The sorceress picked up a small bottle of ancient vampire blood, and mixed a little unknown green liquid and a drop of her own blood into it. She walked up to a struggling vampire girl and forcibly poured the entire potion into it.

What happened next made Henry dumbfounded. The vampire girl gradually stopped struggling, and after a while, Sandyer pulled out the nails on her hands and feet. I saw the naked vampire girl kneeling in front of the sorceress, shouting in a crisp voice: "Great ancestor, the newborn vampire Adeline pays her respects."

"How did you do it? You are not a vampire at all!" Henry looked at the docile girl on the ground in surprise and asked loudly.

Sandyer nailed the girl back to the wall and took out her research notes. "Because this ancient vampire died normally, there is no soul imprint in his blood for First Embrace. What I am doing now is to integrate my own soul imprint into the blood. However, the current stabilizer effect is not very good, and it can only last for a few hours at most."

"By the way, I got some pterosaur eggs during my adventure. See if you can transform them too. I don't need these dragon people to become vampires, as long as they can faithfully carry out orders." Henry poured out a huge cultivation tank from the dimension bag.

Picking up an egg, Sandyer first detected it with magic, and then her eyes lit up. "Master, this is a brand new species. Where did you get these things? If you can solve their self-reproduction ability, you will have an invincible army."

Hearing this sentence, Henry shook his head and warned seriously: "I don't need, and I don't allow you to solve their self-reproduction ability. This is a taboo of the gods in the sky, and anyone who violates it will be devastated. You just need to master the manufacturing method and make them obey orders. Of course, it would be better if you can transform it. In addition, you should pay attention when you study vampires! I don't want to be discovered by those temple people."

"I understand. Don't worry, I have reinforced the entire basement with magic. Not only can no negative energy and bloody smell come out, but anyone who wants to approach here will unconsciously bypass it." Sandyr replied pointing to the magic texture on the wall and the door.

After testing the effect of the magic texture, Henry nodded in satisfaction. "Good job. Take these research notes about the pterosaurs for reference first. Remember, don't stay up all night recently. Prepare enough spell slots, and I may send you to fight at any time." After finishing speaking, he dropped the research notes on the Lich and returned to the study. (To be continued..)
