Broad World

Looking at Ares, whose mouth was full of oil, Henry couldn't help sighing: "Hey, well, it seems that there is nothing wrong with his body, at least his appetite is still as good as before."

Hearing this sentence, Amy finally couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Haha! In fact, Ares returned to normal after resting for a day and a night, but it seems to have mastered some kind of ability to control the body. So for the convenience of activities, it has been kept as it is now.”

"Oh? Can you freely control your body shape?! It's really interesting..." Henry turned his head and glanced at Iris, who was eating hard. He didn't expect this silly guy to have evolved such an interesting talent. It seems that after going back, it is necessary to check it from beginning to end, maybe there are other things hidden.

Just as the three of them were talking and laughing, General Erhan came over wearing a suit of exquisite armor with hollow patterns specially designed for formal occasions. He first smiled and nodded at everyone, and then said: "Sorry, if you don't mind, I want to talk to Henry alone."

"No problem, I just want to decorate the honey-glazed venison, you can talk slowly." Vaughan shrugged his shoulders and turned to leave very interestingly.

Amy also found an excuse and walked towards the corner where Robert was, apparently intending to chat with her brother for a while.

Seeing that there was no one else around, Erhan raised his glass and drank it down, then licked his lips and said, "Thank you, I know that without you, all the people here would not be able to defeat Jonares .”

"You're welcome, we're just taking what we need. Also, congratulations on your soon-to-be-appointed consulship of this city, which is a position that countless elves and nobles dream of." After speaking, Henry also raised his wine glass to symbolically touch his lips Touched on.

The power structure of the kingdom of the elves is completely different from that of the human society. They put up the royal power on a high level, and then the nobles form a council to handle everything.

Of course, this does not mean that the titular ruler has no rights. On the contrary, once they make up their minds to do something, unless the elves and gods stand up against it, they will be carried out immediately. And the consul is the resident representative of the royal power in the parliament, not only has great power, but also is respected by everyone, almost equivalent to the prime minister in the human kingdom

Obviously, Erhan's decisive action this time was appreciated by Queen Alison, otherwise it would be almost impossible for his not-so-prominent family to sit in such a position.

"Ha. I'm just a temporary transitioner, in order to stabilize the uneasy tension of the people in the city. You see, those nobles will find a chance to get me out of this position in a short time, and then find someone who suits them. Those who benefit will be in power." Erhan said with a self-deprecating smile. He didn't seem very interested, and it was very likely that he was jointly suppressed by the nobles.

Politics is almost the same whether it is a human, an elf, or a dwarf. If the interests of political groups cannot be guaranteed, they will be kicked out of important positions immediately, especially a newcomer like Erhan who has no foundation. Man.

However, Henry was obviously not interested in participating in Suodanisla's political struggle, so he smiled and asked: "You sent Vaughn and Amy away to complain, right?"

Erhan smiled wryly and shook his head: "No, these are just out of feelings. Instead of staying in the city and arguing every day, I would rather be the former general. The queen asked me to come over and ask about your bottom line, because a little Someone will come to invite you to a secret meeting later. Discuss the issue of compensation."

"My request is not high, trade and alliance, plus half the wealth of this city. Oh, yes, it is better to prepare a few more pairs of hounds, you know I adopted an elf girl, she is very good at these dogs Animals are very friendly."

Without any hesitation, Henry directly said what he wanted. After all, he has paid so much for this magic war. The completely damaged golem alone is worth a lot of money, plus the pension that is going to be paid to the dead barbarian fighters, it is definitely an astronomical figure.

"Understood, I will pass these words on to the queen." Elhan didn't try to bargain, and went back to Alison and repeated these words in a low voice. Judging from the queen's expression, it was obvious that she It was a sigh of relief.

Henry is very clear that he has not crossed the opponent's bottom line, nor has he violated the interests of the ruling class. So don't worry about being rejected at all. Just when he was about to go to Borken to inquire about the loss of the mage group, a man's voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Very charming lady, isn't she?"

"You are?" Henry turned around and looked up and down at the uninvited accost.

The front of his armor wears the logo of the Knights of the Fierce Heart, and he has short brown hair and a thick short beard around his mouth. He looked to be between twenty and thirty years old, and his eyes were full of energy. Apparently either a paladin or a priest and warrior.

"Hello, I am Anomen Delrin, the priest and warrior of the God of Guardian Haim, and also a trainee knight of the Knights. I am very honored to be able to participate in this righteous battle against evil. It has finally allowed me to obtain I got the promotion opportunity I dreamed of." As he spoke, the eyes of the young apprentice knight flashed with pride and pride.

After listening to this self-introduction, Henry immediately remembered the identity of the person in front of him. He was nicknamed Sir Pighead in the game. This does not mean that his face is like a pig's head, but that he does things without thinking.

However, in Henry's view, Anomen is no different from all young aristocratic males, except that he values ​​honor and other people's recognition too much, and at the same time, under the domination of a strong sense of justice, he acts a little impulsively, that's all.

Of course, a sense of justice is not equal to justice, as long as there is a little guidance, big mistakes may be made. Anyway, Heim, the God of Guardians, does not reject followers of the evil camp, and lawful evil can also continue to retain the power of priests.

Thinking of this, a plan suddenly popped up in Henry's mind, a polite smile quickly appeared on his face and he shook the other person's hand: "Nice to meet you, I've heard Kaidong talk about it before, and he always praised you That extraordinary guts and (passion).”

"Really?!" Anomen asked with surprise on his face.

"Of course!" Henry nodded without hesitation.

After receiving an affirmative answer, Anomen quickly took a deep breath and said, "Sir Kedong is a respected senior. I am very excited to be recognized by him."

"Yeah, not every paladin can regard justice as a lifelong pursuit like him. Oh, by the way, I heard that the Knights recently formed an alliance with an organization called the Mutual Aid Society?" Henry pretended He raised the topic casually, ready to guide this pig-headed sir's sense of justice.

Anomen obviously didn't know the sinister intentions, and nodded happily: "Yes, it is an organization for poor people to help each other. They give food to those who have lost their jobs. It is a very noble act. I have to It is said that Miss Nalia has done a good deed that pleases everyone. I can even feel the power of kindness growing stronger in her."

There is no doubt that he has been deceived by the harmonious atmosphere created by the mutual aid association in the early days, and he has not discovered the huge crisis contained in it. Although these people have not mastered the great weapon of materialism, the huge energy is still enough to cause terrible turmoil, and Amn will decline, split, and even perish because of this.

"I see. No wonder the Shadow Thief would do that." Henry narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself.

"What move? Did those dirty guys do something to the Mutual Aid Society?!" Anomen's face instantly became ugly.

Henry pretended to be indifferent and spread his hands: "It's nothing, I just saw that the shadow thief seemed to have kidnapped some workers' family members when passing by the dock area, and planned to carry out public executions, but they were sent by the headquarters before the execution Some people stopped it. It seems that they should have scruples about the influence of the Knights. So no casualties were caused."

"These bastards!" Anomen crushed the wine glass in his hand after hearing this, which shows how angry he is at the moment.

"I think the Knights may be able to help those poor people with some combat training, at least to give them a certain ability to protect themselves. Otherwise, similar situations will happen again. You must know that it is not always so lucky that there are no casualties."

After saying these suggestive words, Henry patted Sir Pig's shoulder on the shoulder, and walked towards the back of the hall alone. He had already seen Elhan waving towards him, obviously a secret meeting was about to be held, because several powerful factions including the queen disappeared into the hall, presumably they had been waiting for a long time.

Anomen stood there and fell into deep thought, as if considering the feasibility of those suggestions just now. He didn't even care about his palm cut by the glass, his eyes were full of anger.

obviously. Henry's goal was achieved. I believe that this young knight with a sense of justice will definitely help the Mutual Aid Society to carry out combat training after returning to Askatla. By then, as long as a few hundred people are armed, it will not be far from officially entering the political arena.

In the barbaric and primitive world of Faerun Continent, no matter what organization wants to survive, the first thing to do is to have enough force, otherwise it will be difficult to survive, let alone grow.

Nalia's ideal is to change the political situation in Amn, and a group of civilians without any resistance is not enough to attract the attention of the Council of Six. .

Only when these civilians are all transformed into armed mobs with great destructive power. They will really take the mutual aid society seriously and be willing to make some compromises, and Anomen is the catalyst for the whole process. It is conceivable that he will inevitably change to the neutral or evil camp in the future, and maybe he will be able to become a general in the end.

I'm afraid Sir Pig would never have imagined that a legendary spellcaster with such a prominent status and reputation as Henry would ruthlessly trap him in such a matter. And also found some weaknesses in his character.

It seems that Amn will be in chaos soon, because Henry has planted too many seeds of turmoil in this country.

The ever-expanding narcotics business of the Shadow Thieves Guild, the Mutual Aid Society that is about to be transformed into a mob, and the Masked Mage Guild that will be divided up by him and the undead emperor Sean VII in a short time. No matter which one of them erupts first, it will cause a chain reaction. Coupled with the conflict between the south and Tethyr, maybe in a few years, this not-so-old country will completely become history... (to be continued~^ ~)
