Lord God Investigator

Chapter 196 Murderous

The secret room of the Shadow Thieves Guild in the dock area.

Renoir - Bloodhead's eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth and said with hatred: "This villain who deceives the world and steals his reputation is also worthy of being called 'Pearl of Amn, Saint of Acheng'? How much blood is on his hands, how many wronged souls are he carrying on his body? Is he planning to trap him? The most skilled liar in the Shadow Thieves Guild is better at seizing the Harper Alliance's property!"

He panted and drank down the red wine in the glass: "What if this kind of person is a saint? I am the kind god!"

Opposite the Shadow Thief boss sat a noble middle-aged man, this man was Ellen Linville, the mastermind behind the Shadow Thieves Guild.

"The smearing of the Shadow Thieves Guild in the stage play "The Ghost Story" has really had a huge impact! Recently, fewer young people have joined the guild, and the discussion that the Shadow Thieves Guild is a cancer in Amn has become increasingly popular. I am Some 'friends' in the parliament actually persuaded me to restrain myself, and many nobles expressed their dissatisfaction to me in a subtle way. This group of greedy bastards did not have this attitude when they came to me to 'solve the problem'!"

Ellen Linville swung the red wine in his glass and said thoughtfully: "I do admire Mr. Bredlow a little. I even doubt whether he is a loyal follower of Cyric, a voter of the Prince of Lies. We The secret agents came to hear the news that the Church of Love and the chosen people and the chosen people of the Goddess of Magic came to him and had a good chat with him. This guy now has the support of two chosen people of God, and his reputation is so prosperous. The trend has been established. He wants to It’s harder to deal with him.”

"This guy is not without his weaknesses." Renault Bloodhead sneered with a sullen face: "Each member of the Bredreau Troupe is equipped with a strong security team. Only this overconfident leader has no bodyguards. What's the use of having a high reputation while you're alive? An assassin's blade in the back can make your reputation disappear overnight."

"Are you planning to send someone to assassinate Bradlow?" Ellen frowned and asked: "He is very powerful, and the shadow thief assassin's hiding in the shadows will not work at all. I suspect that he is carrying an artifact that can see through illusions. From the corpse in the sewer Judging from the looks of it, this guy’s fists are comparable to +4 magic weapons. His shots are critical, and one blow will be fatal. The Shadow Thief has a very low chance of defeating him head-on."

"There's no one Arkanis-Gath can't kill!"

Reynold Bloodhead's tone was full of murderous intent: "As long as he dies, you can continue to work in the noble council and strive to bring the Bredero Theater Company under your control, and then ask a screenwriter to compile some songs praising the Shadow Thieves Guild. Repertoire, isn’t the problem solved?”

"This is a solution, but the risk is also very high."

Ellen thought about it and said: "Not to mention whether Arkanis will miss, even if he succeeds, if the secret is leaked and the people of Amn know that Bredreau died at the hands of the shadow thief, we will become the public enemy of Amn." ! Everyone in Amn will regard the Shadow Thieves Guild as enemies, and I don’t have to hang out in the council. The nobles know that the Shadow Thieves Guild even kills famous artists to achieve their goals, and they will be afraid of letting the Shadow Thieves grow bigger. In the end The assassinating blade fell on their backs.”

"But, if we don't kill Bradlow, that guy won't stop slandering us. This "The Love of Ghosts" is just the beginning, not the end. I have to admit that his play is really beautiful. If you let it go, He continues to smear his work one by one, and it won’t be long before the Shadow Thief of Amn’s reputation will be heard throughout Faerûn.”

Reynold Bloodhead said helplessly: "It hurts more to cut flesh with a blunt knife, and it will only make our death more painful. It is better to make a decision immediately and fight! Arcanis never misses, and the people he kills die at the same time." I don’t know why I died. We have found out that Bradero is just a seventeenth-level monk, and he should be a sure shot by a legendary assassin."

Alan Surong thought, he originally wanted to solve the problem through political channels. As long as he can win over enough members in the parliament, he can spread rumors, smear, spread some scandals between him and the female star Monroe, publish Bredlow's dark history, etc. Suppress his reputation, make him a stinker, and then kick him out of the troupe and drive him out of Amn.

However, the plan did not change quickly. Bredero's reputation increased much faster than he expected. His biggest black history was to frame the Harper Alliance with the theater bombing and occupy the mansion of the great businessman Gallows. The Harpers Elminster, the founder of the League, befriended him, endorsed him and dissolved.

Even if the truth about the theater bombing was revealed now, even if the evidence was conclusive, not even half of the people in Amn would believe it.

The reason is very simple. The bosses of the Harper Alliance think that being cheated is not a problem. You, the Shadow Thieves Guild, don't steal or rob, so what kind of righteous partners are you?

"Let Arkanis come to see me, and I will personally explain it to him. This matter is too important, and it is related to the future survival of the Shadow Thieves Guild!"

Ai Lang finally made up his mind and said in a cold voice: "I will mobilize elites to cooperate with him, and pair his assassination team with mages and high-level priests of Max, the god of thieves. I will make sure that one hit is sure to hit, and the ending must be clean, preferably Let this man disappear completely and the case become unsolved, rather than leaving him lying on the street."

"Yes, we can blame the Zhentarim. They have already taken many scapegoats, and they are not afraid of being blamed for assassinating the great artist of Amn."

Seeing that his proposal was approved by the leader, Renault Bloodhead sneered: "Those chaotic and evil lunatics are just suitable to be used as blood wipers. Bredlow took over their skinning workshop, and they killed Bredlow in revenge, killing people." There is also a motive.”

The two of them agreed on the assassination decision and began serious preparations, waiting for an opportunity to completely eliminate this shadow thief's enemy.

The Shadow Thieves Guild was busy planning an assassination. In a secret passage in the dirty sewers of the Gold Coin Capital, another force was also chatting about the same topic.

"Bradlow must die!"

A priest who covered his eyes with a cloth with a one-eye painted on the cloth said viciously: "The blind god has given an oracle. The people of Amn have been deceived by liars, and fewer and fewer believers have joined the church." , the people of Amn refused to blind their eyes to see the truth, but were bewitched by the blasphemous demon Bredro, and wanted to keep their eyes to appreciate some damn art!"

This pastor is the chief priest of the "Blind Eye" church. This church worships the beholder, and believers who join the church must blind their eyes to show their piety.

However, with the performance of the Bredlow Theater Company's stage play, the church encountered great obstacles in recruiting believers. Today, the number of Protestants has reached zero, and there will be no increase in the future.

The reason why no one joins the religion is also very simple. How can you watch the classic love stage play of the Bredlow Theater Company if you are blind?

For fanatics, the hatred of people-stealing believers who destroy people's beliefs is deeper than the hatred of murderous parents. If Bredlow does not die for a day, the Church of Blind Eye will not be able to accept new believers for a day, so he must die.

The high priest of the Blind Eye shouted to the congregation in a crazy tone: "Arrange the strongest warriors in the church. We must obey the oracle to kill the demons. The Crown of the Blind God will send an apostle to help us. Then It is a Gaussian magic eye. Under the powerful light of its beholder, Bredlow, a mere seventeenth-level monk, has no room to resist. Not only do we want to kill Bredlow, we also want to kill all the actors in the troupe. Destroy the Grand Theater of Amn!”
