Broad World

After leaving the Thieves Guild, Henry immediately rushed to the Mage Tower. He needed to convert the things he gained from this adventure into strength as soon as possible. Having entered the hall on the first floor, he saw Debra was giving a lecture to the apprentices, and Henry gave her a wink to signal her to follow quickly. Then he went to the workshop alone. The female mage quickly finished her lessons, and she followed up after assigning some tasks to the apprentices. Henry poured out a large amount of dragon blood, dragon skin, and keel bones, including some ores and rare materials purchased in Waterdeep City. Putting these things on the shelf by category, he began to prepare to make some magic items.

"Is there something wrong with the master calling me in such a hurry?" Debra asked with a puzzled face.

Henry sighed and looked at her seriously. "The Arcane Brotherhood has sent people again, this time with more people, and the person in charge of the operation is a senior member. According to Robert's information, they still have golems. We must prepare quickly and completely eradicate them before they take root."

Hearing the name of the Arcane Brotherhood, Debra's body visibly stiffened, and then she rubbed her brow vigorously. "My former mentor must have come, and he proposed this plan at the time. According to the internal rules of the brotherhood, whoever has a problem with the mission must solve it by himself."

"Do you have any specific information about him? For example, the level of the mage, the school of specialization, what is his name, and whether he has any weaknesses." Henry hurriedly asked when he heard that Debra knew the mage leading the team.

The sorceress took a deep breath. "He's called Anthony, a 14th or 15th-level conjuration master. I only know that he likes young and handsome boys. I don't know if this counts as a weakness."

When Henry heard it, his whole body became cold, and his skin was covered with goose bumps. He really didn't expect that the archmage was actually a gay, which was a bit shocking. After sorting out his thoughts, he said to Debra: "Okay, now at least we know his spellcasting level and specialization school. You will call Amy up later, I have something to ask her. Also remember to inform Asembu and his barbarian guards to be on standby at any time. I'm afraid they will be needed to join the battle this time."

Debra nodded. "Understood, I will give them an order now. Also, do Vaughn and Hawk need to be notified, after all, one of them is the mayor, and the other is also a powerful fighter."

After thinking for a while, Henry accepted her suggestion. "You were very thoughtful and informed them all. Remember to tell Hawke not to act rashly, and let him control the city defense forces to maintain the law and order on the surface." Debra bowed slightly, turned and left the workshop, and soon came to the library. Amy was reading a book quietly in front of a table. Since she moved into the Mage Tower, she spent almost all her time here except for sleeping.

"The master asked me to inform you that he is waiting for you in the workshop upstairs. Besides, we are in big trouble this time. The Arcane Brotherhood sent a mentor to personally infiltrate the city of Bluewind." Debra walked to Amy and said to her seriously.

Amy was taken aback, and immediately stood up and nodded. "Got it, I'm going upstairs now." After she finished speaking, she put down the book in her hand and ran away from the library. Debra also left the Mage Tower immediately, and she still has many people who need to be notified one by one.

Henry is currently making a summoning monster staff, which can randomly summon some creatures to serve the staff holder. In order to make the summoned monster more powerful, he chose a keel as the main body, and then began to carve magic textures on the surface of the staff. When Amy ran in, she happened to see Henry carving the keel, and she walked lightly to the side and sat down to wait.

Twenty minutes later, Henry finished his work. He put down the tools in his hand and turned his head to ask, "Amy, did your brother send a batch of gray dwarves recently?"

"Yes, I arranged for them to live in the basement. Now Taling Cortana is watching 24 hours a day to prevent them from escaping." Amy stood up and replied.

Henry nodded. "You go and bring them all to the workshop now, I need them to build something."

Amy's eyes widened and she asked, "Bring all two hundred people here? I'm afraid this workshop can't accommodate so many people."

Henry patted his head. "Go down and choose, and bring up all the blacksmiths among them. If you encounter non-cooperation, I will allow you to use some violent means."

Amy stroked her hair and laughed. "These gray dwarves are quite obedient. After all, this is a mage tower, and they understand their situation." After speaking, she walked out of the workshop and went to the bottom floor of the tower.

A few minutes later, Amy came to the last floor under the Mage Tower. More than two hundred gray dwarves simply expanded the place as their own residence. Seeing Amy walking, they immediately stood up and bowed to salute. The leader came over and asked, "Dear lady, do you have any orders for us?"

Amy looked at the condition of these dwarves. Except for a few women, most of the wounds on their bodies had healed. She said to the interim chief: "The master is back, and now he needs a group of skilled blacksmiths to make something."

The leader trembled when he heard the word master, and he asked cautiously, "We only have sixty blacksmiths here, so I wonder if we can meet your request?"

"Let them all come together, the master is waiting in the workshop now." After speaking, Amy turned and walked up the stairs. The dark environment underground made her feel uncomfortable. The leader of the gray dwarves hurriedly beckoned his blacksmiths to follow.

When they came to the workshop, Henry had already finished making the summoning monster staff. He cast a discernment spell on the staff, and the specific information appeared in his mind.

Summon Monster Staff:

This staff can randomly summon monsters, which will appear within the range of effect and attack the user's enemies. Monsters will not disappear within the effective time unless killed. They disappear when they die. If there are no enemies to fight, the mage can communicate with them, and the summoned monsters can provide other services for the mage.

special power:

Effective distance: 6.5 meters

Duration: two minutes

Number of uses: 100

He waved his staff a few times before placing it on the workbench, then turned around and asked, "Are these all the blacksmiths?"

Amy frowned her nose, and a smile appeared on her face. "According to the chief, these are all the masters."

Seeing her cute expression, Henry smiled, and he turned his head to look at the gray dwarf leader. "Now tell me your name, and what these blacksmiths under your command are good at."

"Dear master, my name is Tenoben. Most of the blacksmiths here are good at forging various weapons and armors. Of course, our level of magic forging may be a little poor." The gray dwarf leader knelt on the ground and answered Henry's question. He didn't even dare to raise his head. Tenoben had served the mages of the dark elves before, so he knew very well that these mages usually had bad tempers, and once they were upset, the final outcome would be worse than death.

Henry was very satisfied with the attitude of the gray dwarf in front of him. He took out a drawing from the table and handed it over. "This is the design drawing of a giant crossbow I drew, can you make it?"

Tenoben took the blueprint with both hands, lay down on the ground and looked at it for a while. "Great master, I need to discuss it with other blacksmiths. I wonder if I can get your permission."

"Yes, but hurry up, I need to create a finished product as soon as possible." Henry nodded and agreed.

Tenoben took the blueprint and ran to the gray dwarf blacksmiths behind him, and they chattered about the various data and designs on the blueprint. Five minutes later he came over with the drawings. "Master, if this kind of giant crossbow is made of wood, the range may not be too far. If it is made of steel, then the string is a difficult problem to solve."

Henry pointed to the material on the other side. "I now have a few strong tendons of a giant dragon. You first use mithril mixed with fine steel to make a sample for me. In addition, the crossbow bolts need to be specially made, and specific patterns must be carved on them. I need to enchant them. The first batch will be 20 handles. I will let Amy give you the patterns on it later."

"Your will is the direction of my actions. We will create the samples as soon as possible." Tenoben knelt down and said with all the gray dwarves.

Amy almost didn't laugh when she heard these gray dwarves. Henry glared at her and said to the blacksmiths, "Okay, I now authorize you to use the No. 2 workshop. You can get the materials you need here. Everyone will live there for a few days to catch up with the work. I will let the golem deliver the food."

Tenoben bowed, and began to direct the others to lift the steel block and mithril, and finally they took away a dragon tendon. After the gray dwarves left, Henry gave Amy a note. "Now give this to Robert right away, tell him that this is information from the mages led by the Arcane Brotherhood, and let him see if he can use it."

Amy took the note and put it close to her body. "Master, do you want me to stay by my brother's side and help him?"

Henry shook his head. "No need, you can't do this kind of thing. Leave it all to Robert, he is now a very experienced thief leader." Amy thought for a while, and felt that this kind of conspiratorial thing really didn't suit her personality. She saluted Henry, then turned and left the Mage Tower, heading for her brother's Thieves Guild. (To be continued.)
