Although Nuerman was skeptical about such generous conditions, he couldn't find any traps at all, so he finally failed to resist the temptation to get rid of the control of the sand bandits and agreed to establish a close cooperative relationship. Hamid even offered A magical pact was made to ensure that no betrayal would emerge among the three.

But they don't know that the witness of this contract is a Devil Duke of Baator Hell, which may be a powerful creature that is completely untouchable to most people, but it is nothing to Henry, even if he doesn't Obeying the other party can't do anything to him.

This also means that there are only two binding objects of the contract, and the most powerful person among them is not restricted at all. As long as he wants, he can tear it up at any time as he likes.

After signing the agreement, Nuerman quickly left the mansion quietly through the underground passage, and hurried back. He was very worried that his confidant sorcerer would be found out by using spells, so he directly rejected the invitation of his allies to stay for supper, and quickly disappeared at the end of the street.

"How? The person I introduced is not bad." Hamid asked with a smile while lying on the sofa, enjoying the attentive service of his new concubine Doha.

Perhaps with the last important pawn in the whole plan in place, he had a hunch that he would soon become the most powerful businessman in Calimport, so he was very happy, and he looked much younger.

Henry sneered, gently stroked the smooth back of the maid who was massaging himself, and said: "This Mr. Nuerman is a real careerist. Conspiracies and betrayals are commonplace for him, and he must Get rid of it as soon as possible, otherwise it will be a disaster sooner or later. Of course, before that, you have to squeeze out his potential. Especially those sand robbers, you'd better think about how to solve it as soon as possible, otherwise the trade route to the north will definitely be destroyed. Full of death and killing."

Ever since he met the leader of the camel guild who rose to power through a series of conspiracies, he had no intention of letting him live to the end, because such a guy with no principles and bottom line is too harmful, and he will never be willing to be anyone's Start, so be sure to kill it in the cradle.

Hamid was taken aback, hurriedly sat up and straightened his clothes, and complained loudly: "Damn! Then why didn't you say it earlier. We have signed a magic contract now, and if we don't fulfill it, our soul will be taken away by the big devil." !"

Seeing the nervous look on the businessman's face, Henry laughed and shook his head: "Hahahaha! Don't be nervous, relax, it's just a contract, I have many ways to spare, and I guarantee that he will not know before he gets these things It's not for nothing. You should worry more about how to deal with the nominal ruler who lives in the palace. This guy will not just watch a huge interest group rise on his own territory, so you'd better think Know what it takes to get his support."

Speaking of which. He picked up a grape and put it in his mouth, and continued to explain: "You should be very clear that Ser-Pasha Lalan relied on the help of the guild forces to climb up to the current position little by little, so it is foreseeable that He will definitely attach great importance to the reorganization of the underground forces."

"I will give away part of the profits and swear allegiance to his family. I believe these two points should satisfy that greedy scorpion. If this guy is not satisfied, I will seek refuge with other nobles, and he will definitely not Dare to act rashly." After speaking, Hamid showed a trace of disdain on his face, and lay down again with his legs crossed. Put on a look of indifference.

Apparently, the king dubbed "Poisonous Scorpion" was not very popular. Most merchants and nobles ignored him, and his sphere of influence was limited to the surrounding area of ​​Calimport. , the control is far less than the support received by the previous predecessors.

However, Henry knew that this guy was far from being as simple as it seemed on the surface, and there was probably another huge force in Calimshan standing behind him - the Long Nail Chamber of Commerce.

They are a group of merchant alliances that control most of the country's shipping routes. Often bribed pirates to destroy the opponent's business. This organization is involved in slave trading, and has been fighting against the Harper Alliance all year round without losing any success. It even knows how to fund adventurers who are right and wrong to fight against the enemy.

It can be said that as long as there is trade, there is an eyeliner of this organization, and the intelligence coverage is extremely wide. I just don't know how many of the internal members are secretly controlled by the magic talisman.

The corners of Henry's mouth turned up slightly when he thought that he would be able to see the masters of runes in a hurry in a few days. He stood up and said to Hamid: "Since you are ready, I will go back first. Remember, don't contact those sand thieves too early, at least wait until they have suffered a big loss. .”

"Understood, this is a common trick in business. First squeeze out the business of the opponent, and then severely suppress the price to buy it. But are you sure you want to go back so late? I have a lot of rooms here, and there are Beautiful female slave, why don't you stay and relax?" Hamid asked with a strange light in his eyes.

Regarding the businessman's invitation, Henry hesitated for a few minutes, but finally shook his head: "No, it's not time to relax yet. I have to go back and make arrangements so that Sharp Tooth and the Night Bandit will start fighting as soon as possible. Only in this way can the Sand Bandit Will fight pirates."

As the saying goes, the weak wait for opportunities, the strong fight for them, and the wise create them.

He planned to get Arcanis to move immediately, pretending to be Artemis Entreri again to launch several assassinations, and strive to completely break out this long-planned guild war before noon tomorrow.

"Okay, it's important. If you need help, you can contact me at any time. You know where I can be found." As he spoke, Hamid flirted with his concubine.

The latter understood immediately, got up and turned the candlestick next to the bookshelf, and then pulled it hard, revealing a passage leading to the ground.

Without any hesitation, Henry went straight in and quickly disappeared into the dark secret passage. He knew very well that this was the second secret road prepared by Hamid, and it was definitely safer than the one that Nuerman had just taken. As for where it led to, it was hard to say.

In fact, most houses in Calimport have at least two passages, and nobles and big businessmen usually dig four or five passages in their mansions. Not convenient for public guests.

It can be said that the entire ground of Calimport has been dug in a criss-cross pattern. Sometimes inexplicable underground holes can often be found when laying foundations for new houses. Similar situations emerged endlessly during the renovation of slums, and in the end they were all blocked.

After all, the history of Calimshan is so long, it can even be easily traced back to more than nine thousand years ago...

That was the era of the djinn. They came from another plane and conquered the local humans and halflings. Based on these slaves, the original Karin Empire was founded. Thousands of years later, the djinn followed closely. Afterwards, the Memnon Empire was established, and the continuous war between the last two countries led to the birth of the third largest desert in Faerun. It was not until the elves used powerful magical power to bind these alien creatures in the desert.

What followed was the rise of human civilization. In the next thousand years, several regimes were destroyed and countless regimes were established. It was not until the Xia En Dynasty that it reached its peak.

But it is a pity that no matter how glorious the dynasty is, there will be a day of destruction. Although Sean VII is so powerful, he still lost to one of the most legendary dragon kings in Faerun, the ancient blue dragon "Sharp Tooth" Ivy Ke Lhasagrand eventually went to perish and split. The chaotic situation lasted for hundreds of years, and today it has become a part of the tradition.

This land is so ancient and complicated, so there are many secrets hidden underground. After excavating some areas, you can even find an underground labyrinth thousands of years ago, so a mere secret passage is not worth making a fuss about.

The tunnel was very long, and after walking for more than ten minutes, Henry gradually saw a moonlight shining in front of him. He hastened to speed up his steps, jumped up from the exit, and was shocked to find that this place was only a few blocks away from the Phantom Guild.

You must know that there are at least two kilometers between the palace area and the periphery of the pier, and there are countless shops and streets. It must have taken a lot of effort for Hamid to be able to directly connect them.

Obviously, this secret passage was used to escape for his life. In the event of an accident, he would rush directly to the port from here to take a boat out to sea. At that time, no matter how many pursuers the enemy had, there would be nothing he could do.

"As expected of a big businessman, he even prepared such a thorough escape route. Is this supposed to be showing me his strength?" Henry rubbed his chin and whispered, walking towards the headquarters of the Phantom Guild.

He didn't quite understand, why did Hamid take out such a secret passage for escape to share with himself?

The businessman's sudden and weird behavior cast a layer of doubt on the whole plan. It seems that the contractor of the Eastern Arena has some unknown secrets.

Just when Henry was trying to find clues from the mystery, a thin figure like an elf suddenly appeared in an alley.

His face is sharp and angular, with prominent cheekbones and strong jawline, coupled with straight short black hair, making the whole person look full of danger, especially those gray eyes without a trace of light, lifeless, without any mercy With human nature, it is as cold as a killing machine.

The man followed Henry carefully, neither approaching rashly nor being thrown away, just keeping a safe distance neither far nor close. Like a leopard on the hunt, he observes his prey before striking, and waits until his opponent makes a mistake before launching a fatal blow.

However, he obviously didn't know who he was following, and he also didn't know that even without the help of magic, it would be difficult for Henry to be harmed by physical attacks, even if he used a magic dagger embedded with gems. exception.

The two walked forward one after the other, one in the dark and the other in the dark, and the exciting assassination on the street was about to start... (to be continued~^~)
