Chapter 221 Occupying the Iron Mine (Second Change)

Garheira asked some questions about the Iron Throne and let the grumpy dwarf go. A group of people continued to clean up the remaining enemies on this floor, and they did not reach the last floor through the stairs until they killed the last guy guarding the warehouse. As soon as he walked out of the stairs, a heavily armed guard came over and asked loudly, "Who are you? What will appear here?"

"Let's talk to Dawan about the Iron Throne. If you don't want to die, you'd better get out of the way." Apodel threatened, waving the shackle.

The guard sneered. "Ha! Another group of idiots who can't control themselves. Dawan doesn't like being disturbed by strangers, so I have to send you to your death." After speaking, he stabbed Imoon, who seemed to be the weakest.

Khalid reacted quickly and blocked the attack with a shield in his hand. Then the poor fellow was hit by spears, two-handed swords, longswords, flails, and magic missiles all at the same time. Not only was the entire head opened, but other parts of the body also suffered serious puncture injuries.

Aberdell spat on the corpse. "Bah! Let's see who is the fool who can't control himself. Any obstacles in my way of revenge will be completely destroyed." After speaking, he walked forward faster than the corpse.

Suddenly there was a click on the ground, and several magic missiles were launched from the ground, all hitting Apodel's back. The full body armor didn't protect him at all, he squealed and half knelt on the ground, blood flowed out from the gap. Henry quickly cast a second-level divine spell "Detect Trap", and two red marks instantly flashed on the ground.

Aimon quickly took out the tool bag and ran to dismantle the magic trap on the ground. But she doesn't seem to be very proficient in the craft. Tried several times in a row without success. Just when the girl was a little annoyed. A man's voice came from inside. "Don't waste your efforts. At your level. Even if you try a hundred times, you still can't solve the magic trap I set by myself."

Following the sound, the group saw a man with a bald head and long beard in a gorgeous robe at the end of the corridor. Leaning on a cane, he slowly walked out of the shadows and looked at everyone with contempt. "You persevering adventurers have finally found this place. Although you have successfully disrupted the plans for the Iron Throne several times, this good luck ends here."

Henry looked at the mage with teasing eyes, and then stood up and asked, "You must be Davan. I'm curious what benefits the Iron Throne promised to make so many people work hard?"

"Benefits? Of course! They promised to build me a mage tower after the plan is successful. As for you, just obediently let me die!" Dawan waved his hand. I saw two huge armors with red eyes rushing out from the corridor behind.

Apodel drank a bottle of healing potion, swung the flail and hit one of them on the head. Only a "bang" was heard, and the entire helmet was smashed instantly. But the armor got up from the ground indifferently, and continued to attack with a long sword that was blazing. The situation in front of him surprised him, because there was no one inside the armor.

Dawan quickly blessed himself with protective magic and laughed loudly: "How is it? The power of the dread armor is not bad. Don't worry, I will send you to the god of death with magic right away!"

"These two scrap metals are your reliance? It seems that I need to let you meet the truly powerful creation of the spellcaster." Henry sneered and turned the golden book into a golem. The adamantine golem strode forward, and with three punches and two kicks, it turned the dread armor into pieces of iron.

Dawan was literally speechless in shock. He is very clear about the casting level and resources needed to create such a golem, such a mage himself is not an opponent at all. Seeing the terrified expression on the enemy's face, Henry immediately released a "Dimensional Anchor" to lock the surrounding space.

Looking at the rapidly approaching adamantine golem and the firmly locked space, Dawan wisely gave up resistance. He lifted the protective spell on himself and shouted: "Stop this damn golem! I surrender!"

Just in case. Henry first let the "Coiling Golem" behind him go over first and put the mage with the "Touch of Paralysis". Then he stripped off all the magic items and scrolls on his body before leading the others to jump over the trap on the ground and come closer.

Apodell kicked the naked Dawan and said to the others behind him: "This guy is really spineless. He surrendered as soon as the fight started."

Henry explained while rummaging through the scrolls on the ground. "Dawan is different from those previous opponents. He is a high-level mage, and he can tell the difference in strength between the two sides at a glance. Moreover, the mages of the evil camp have no loyalty at all. When the situation is not good for them, it is wise to turn around and flee or surrender."

"Okay. Although this guy is a selfish bastard, it's good to avoid a fight." Apodel shrugged, and then began to look at the scrolls on the ground.

It didn't take long for Jaheira to jump out of some contact letters. As you can see from the dates above, plans for the Iron Throne began several years ago. Not only have they prepared their strongholds, but they have also infiltrated the Seven Suns Merchant Alliance. Looking at these densely packed plans, everyone felt a chill in their hearts. Immediately they woke up Dawan and began to ask some details of the plan. The mage of the evil alignment betrayed the Iron Throne without hesitation, pouring out everything he knew.

When Apodel heard that the enemy was trying to control the United Parliament, he immediately shouted angrily: "Damn! We have to go to Baldur's Gate quickly. Once these guys succeed, they will definitely turn us all into wanted criminals."

Imoon shook his head and expressed his objection. "What about this iron mine? This is the only place in the entire region that can still produce iron. If we leave, the Iron Throne will send people to reoccupy it soon. Those poor people outside will become slaves again, and they can't get out of this forest on their own."

"That's it. You stay here first, and I will go to the Duke of Anta Silver Shield with the prisoners and the evidence. It won't be long before the person who takes over the mine will arrive, and we will be able to get out of here." Henry took advantage of the other people's extreme struggles, and came up with a compromise plan.

Jaheira nodded. "This is a good way. But you need to be as fast as possible, we don't have much time to waste."

"Don't worry. I'll use the spell to teleport there directly, and I won't waste any time at all." Henry let the caster number one paralyze Dawan again, and then threw the dimensional bag containing the pterosaur head, gold coins, and trophies to Apodel. In the end, he activated a "group teleportation technique" and went directly across the portal to his mansion at Baldur's Gate.

"Who! How dare you trespass on Earl Henry's private residence!" A guard found two people and a golem that appeared in the courtyard out of thin air.

Henry took off the hood he had been wearing on his head. In order to prevent being recognized by others, he used the hood on the cloak to cover his face during the adventure. The guard instantly recognized his master and immediately bowed. "Sorry, my lord. I didn't recognize it just now."

Henry smiled and waved his hands. "It doesn't matter, and you did a very good job just now. Now go and inform the housekeeper here, and quietly send an invitation to the Duke of Silver Shield. Just say that I am here to invite him and Mrs. Brila to have a light meal tonight, and there are some other important things that need to be discussed."

"Okay, I'll inform the housekeeper right away." The guard saluted and immediately ran into the house.

Henry placed Spellcaster 1 and the captives in the basement, and then activated the "teleportation" to the mountainous area east of Coastal Avenue. Using divination spells, he soon found a group of robbers who were eating. What followed was a massacre. In less than a minute, more than 20 robbers in the entire camp turned into corpses.

After some searching, Henry found an enamel brooch on the leader's body, with the name of Ed Silver Shield engraved on it in the common language. This should be the relic of the nephew who has never been masked. I believe that with this, the negotiation tonight will go much smoother. But to increase his persuasiveness, he cast several language spells again, and finally found the remains of a young man among a group of rotting corpses.

The corpse had begun to decompose, and many parts of the body had been eaten by wild animals and birds. However, the face can be vaguely recognized, the characteristics of a male in the Yindun family. Henry checked it carefully and confirmed that the corpse could no longer use the "resurrection technique", so he put it in a coffin.

Right now, the only spell that can revive Ed Silver Shield is "Wish". However, there are only a handful of archmages near Baldur's Gate who can use ninth-level spells, and none of them can be hired by the Duke of Silver Shield. Henry took the coffin and activated the "teleportation" again to return to his mansion. Putting the coffin in the cellar, he immediately ordered one of the footmen to deliver a letter to Robert at the Fairy's Song Inn.

After doing all this, Henry came to the bathroom that had already prepared hot water and started to take a bath. The steaming water relaxes his whole body, and he is exhausted from the continuous fighting and traveling during this period. Adventure is not as good as the bard said. Along the way, not to mention eating and sleeping in the open, even sleeping late had to keep one eye open. If you accidentally encounter bad weather, such as thunder and rain, then wet clothes and mud all over the ground can make you even have no strength to curse.

Now all the hard work is finally not in vain. All the preliminary work has been prepared, as long as an agreement can be reached tonight, then the next step can be done freely. I hope that Anta Yindun can understand, otherwise he can only be killed together. Although this will arouse suspicion from others, it is the only way to keep a secret. (To be continued..)
