Broad World

Henry stayed in Bleuwente City for a day and two nights, met with all the important people on the island, and then went to visit the pregnant Doris. The baron's daughter looked like she had some pregnancy syndrome, and she looked neurotic, like a frightened little rabbit.

It's no wonder, after all, there are many ruthless aristocratic wives who, in order to keep their children's status from being threatened, will murder their husband's other lovers and illegitimate children, usually killing two people. However, this kind of situation usually happens when the woman's family is relatively strong, otherwise it will easily arouse the anger of the man, and it may eventually lead to a war between the two families.

Obviously, this kind of situation is absolutely impossible to happen in the Angomei family, and Shi Kodi, as his wife, dare not even have such an idea. After getting along for so many years, she knows very well what kind of person her husband is. Although he looks gentle and gentle on the surface, in fact, there is no room for a little sand in his eyes. As long as anyone crosses the boundary a little bit, he will be warned or punished immediately, and if it is more than two times, he will be cleaned up immediately.

Over the years, more than 30 officials have been executed in public, and more than 100 officials have been executed secretly in private. It was this fierce and even cruel method that shocked everyone, and they didn't even dare to touch the cordon that was drawn out. Everyone is doing their job honestly, and a set of unspoken rules tacitly accepted by officials has been formed in this way. Before leaving. Henry also personally presided over the recruitment of the sahuagin captives. Anyone who is willing to spit on the holy symbol of Sekora can be pardoned. It was allowed to survive and multiply near the Angome Islands, and those who would rather die than surrender were forcibly transformed into undead creatures and thrown into the sewer as free garbage collectors.

Perhaps because of the collapse of faith, a total of 2,000 captives chose to give up their former gods, and less than 600 diehards chose to die. Most of them are priests and fighters, not even a mage. This once again shows that smart people are unreliable. In order to survive, more than forty mages have surrendered without exception.

After taking the oath of allegiance. The sahuagin were all released into the sea. In the future, the mage tower will be responsible for monitoring their activities, and they can be called to join the battle at any time if necessary. Henry didn't worry about the issue of rebellion at all, because once they escaped his protection, these guys would be torn to pieces by the swarming crowd of the same kind. It must be known that Sekola had never spared any betrayal. After the foundation is solid, it can spread to the Sea of ​​Glory or the Sea of ​​Traceless in the south. In this way, the belief system of the ocean overlord sahuagin can be cut across the board. This can be said to be a bolt from the blue for a racial god, let alone recovering power by then. I'm afraid that if you are not careful, you may lose this battle of faith, and the final end may be to lie dead in the astral world.

As a guy who regards the inherent evil of human nature as the truth, Henry doesn't believe that those shits don't offend me, and I don't offend others. In his eyes, as long as he is confirmed to be an enemy, or may be an enemy in the future, he will use various means to attack until the opponent is completely destroyed from body to soul.

It can be said that this is a very extreme approach, which is likely to attract criticism from many so-called righteous people. But precisely this is the only way to truly avoid future troubles, and at the same time, it can also give a warning to those with bad intentions, so that everyone can see the end of being an enemy, even gods are no exception.

Henry believes that whether it is a god or a demon lord, they are all a bunch of bullying and fearful bastards. As long as you are stronger than them and have a stronger desire for revenge, these guys will hide away like castrated dogs. If it is not necessary, I dare not provoke it easily. But if you compromise everywhere, then these guys will be like mad dogs, and they will not let go until they tear off a piece of meat.

As the saying goes, good people don't live long, but evil people last for thousands of years. In this world full of various battles, if you don't want to be fat in the eyes of others, you must show the nature of a carnivore. In particular, there must be absolutely no sympathy for the enemy, otherwise it will be regarded as weak and deceitful, and many people will be eager to rush forward to gain some advantage.

After dealing with all this, Henry returned to the Eratan mansion on the morning of the third day. As soon as he walked into the hall, he saw a human man in his fifties sitting on the sofa. His hair looks a little gray, but he combs it meticulously. He always keeps a smile on his face. He wears a magical full body armor that looks old. There is also a heart-shaped pattern, which is the logo of the Knights of the Hot Heart.

After seeing Henry, the man hurriedly stood up and bowed slightly. "Good morning, Your Excellency the Duke. My name is Kaidon Falcon, and I am a judge who believes in the god of loyalty and courage."

"Good morning. I've heard about your name and glorious record, and you're also the longest-serving member of the Knights." As he spoke, Henry returned a salute. The moment he heard the name, he recalled that the old man full of personal charm in front of him turned out to be the paladin who was almost cuckolded by his wife because he was often away from home in the game.

Kaidong humbly lowered his head and smiled and said, "My record is not worth mentioning at all. After all, you killed the legendary dragon Balagos "Flying Flame" with your own hands. I still can't believe it. The head has been hung above the main entrance of the parliament building."

"You are so humble. Is there anything important to come to me this time?". Henry finally couldn't stand this kind of unnutritive mutual compliments, and went straight to the point. He felt that the other party must have a purpose for coming this time, and it was very likely that he came to ask for his help.

"Yes, I have brought all the temples of Askatra and the commission of the Knights of the Heart of Heat, and I want to hire you and your partners to investigate the recently raised cult "Blind Eyes" and find out what it is People are playing tricks behind their backs. This piece of parchment records some clues, and I hope it can help the action." Said Kaidong took out a piece of parchment from his arms and handed it over.

After a brief glance, Henry put it away, because there was no useful information at all except that the opponent's stronghold was in the sewer of the temple area. He frowned and asked, "That's all? It's useless at all."

Kaidong sighed slightly and explained: "No way, these people are very sensitive to priests and paladins, as long as they get close, they will be discovered, and it is impossible to investigate deeply. Of course, the temple has provided a generous reward for this commission. , a total of 20,000 gold coins and a magic weapon, and you can also get the allegiance of a small group of paladins."

"Oh? Is this what the Knights mean?" Henry asked in surprise. He couldn't believe it was real. It is important to know that paladins seldom pledge allegiance to secular lords. Because of political relations, they more or less do things that go against goodness, which can easily lead to degeneration.

Kai Dong nodded with a serious expression. "That's right, this cult is spreading very fast. It has already developed nearly a thousand believers in just a few weeks. If it is eradicated as soon as possible, it will lead to a very serious crisis of faith. The high-level knights have made a decision, as long as you can solve it The mastermind behind the scenes, the six paladins will immediately break away from the Knight Order and swear allegiance to you."

"Okay, I've accepted this task. I need some time to prepare, and I will set off for the sewers in the temple area this afternoon at the latest." Henry agreed without hesitation. He knew that both the temple and the knights had already suffered a lot this time, especially the six paladins could form a special team to fight bandits and monsters.

"Thank you very much. Please come to the Knights headquarters before entering the sewer, I will always wait for you there." After speaking, Kaidong bowed and turned to walk towards the door. After he left completely, Henry yelled at the stairs: "Come out, I know you are eavesdropping."

"Aha, are we going to go on an adventure again?" Aimon was the first to emerge from the shadows and asked excitedly.

Henry smiled and nodded. "That's right, let's get ready and leave after lunch. Oh, by the way, why are there only you and Hina, where is Nalia?"

The dragon girl shrugged her shoulders and replied: "She went to the Council to report early yesterday morning, and she is busy contacting Sir Deanis's former friends, and it seems that she is going to do something big."

Hearing that Nalia finally moved, an imperceptible smile crossed Henry's face. He touched his chin and said to the girls: "It seems that she has finally found her purpose in life. In this case, the next adventure will only be the three of us, plus the paladin Kaidong just now."

"Is the number of people a little less?" Aimon blinked and asked.

"It's a bit small, but don't worry, there will be new teammates joining in a short time. After all, there are too many adventurers to count, and there will always be one or two that we can catch our eyes. Well, don't think about it now There are so many, let’s prepare them all, and then have lunch together. In particular, you must bring more spell-casting materials, and I have a feeling that this commission will not be too easy.”

The people in the temple may not know, but Henry remembers very clearly who is behind the "Blind Eye", a large group of beholders hiding underground. It also involved the lost artifact and the cursed saint. I am afraid that it would be impossible to explore such a large underground labyrinth without a day or two.
