Broad World

Under Nalia's description, it didn't take long for everyone to know what kind of person her aunt Decia Ken was. This noble lady is not only somewhat arrogant, but also often despises ordinary people who live at the bottom of society. Almost all the servants in the castle were reprimanded by her, even Nalia, who likes to help the poor, was not spared.

It is said that Ms. Decia hates adventurers and mercenaries the most, and calls them annoying country bumpkins. She believes that these nosy guys are social instability factors, and Amn should use the army to eradicate them completely. While this is true to a certain extent, it is obviously impossible to completely eradicate it.

Henry also thought about eliminating these unstable factors in his principality, but later he found that without adventurers and mercenaries, many things could not be handled at all. Especially when some small monsters such as kobolds or goblins come to harass the village, most village chiefs tend to spend a few dollars to hire a team of adventurers to drive them away.

After all, there are too many remote villages. If the army is sent out for such a trivial matter, even 10,000 people may not be enough. It can be said that adventurers and mercenaries greatly reduce administrative costs, so in Faerun, a place where public transportation is not very convenient, no country can do without them.

Of course, adventurers are not all good. These guys are very mobile, and most of them flout the law. Teams with low professional levels are better, because they will be more honest if they are afraid of being surrounded by the garrison. But there are a very small number of teams with professional levels over ten, or even fifteen, who are completely unscrupulous, and even dare to subvert the state power.

The Gu Zhi team that Henry killed while guarding the mansion some time ago was this type. Although I don't know what their purpose is for lurking there, but it will definitely not do anything good if it has something to do with Karinshan's magic talisman. According to his inference, these guys are likely to want to indirectly control the upper class of Askatra through terrorist activities such as kidnapping, intimidation, and extortion.

Know that the Human Council is almost all from this class, if their plan is successful. Then Amn has the opportunity to become the second chaotic Karinshan. The fate of the countries secretly controlled by the Talismans is not very good. These undead creatures completely treat mortals as toys to pass the long and boring time.

"In short, the trick is to ignore anything she says, whether it's sarcasm or belittling, and just be an irritable parrot there." Nalia finally made a concluding speech. She didn't want any conflicts between these people and her aunt, especially Sandy, who had a bad temper.

"Don't worry, I think this will shut up your haughty aunt." Henry took out his family crest as he spoke. He doesn't have such a good temper. Listen to sarcasm and sarcasm from an older woman going through menopause. If the other party is not sensible, he doesn't mind making this Aunt Desia suffer.

Nalia, who received noble education since she was a child, recognized the pattern on the badge at a glance. As the latest rising aristocrat on the west coast, the Angemei family is well-known. Although it doesn't have a long history, it has become a force that cannot be ignored by virtue of the talent of the contemporary Patriarch. In particular, the other party's method of turning stones into gold and his adventures have long been passed down as miraculous. It is often used by other nobles to educate their daughters.

You must know that the Deanis family has been passed down for so many years, and the current main economic income is only between 500 and 700 gold coins per week on average. This includes a lot of miscellaneous taxes, as well as income from selling grain during the autumn harvest. Excluding the expenses of repairing castles, water conservancy facilities, mills, distributing salaries to servants, supporting the army, etc., there will not be much left in the end.

Sir Deanis attaches great importance to and cherishes his hard-earned reputation, so once he encounters natural disasters and disasters, he not only needs to restore the farmland, but also has to relieve the farmers in the territory. Nalia had seen her father borrow money from merchants many times. The amount each time will not be less than two thousand gold coins.

From this, it can be seen how rich Henry's territory is. Now many nobles in the surrounding area are waiting for the deserted murlocs to retreat, so that they can rush forward to seek some benefits in the new country. The three countries bordering the Baldur's Gate region are the most active, namely Amn, Cormyr, and Tumis.

They saw the great potential of the principality in this war, and they all hoped to draw it into their camp. After all, the Battle of Baldur's Gate wiped out more than 10,000 deserted murloc troops. Although it was at the cost of turning a city into ruins, this kind of record was the first time in history against marine life.

Especially Amu, who spared no effort to win them over. The human council is most aware of the combat effectiveness of the deserted murlocs. The fleet they spent a lot of money to build sank all these ocean overlords just after leaving the port. The entire 1.5 million gold coins were not even heard, and none of the captains and sailors came back alive.

In addition, these people are also eager to get the right to use the airship. You must know that the reason why Waterdeep City has been able to persevere is because of these huge-capacity aircraft to transport supplies. Although all forces are working hard to decipher its mysteries, just a single hydrogen gas makes it impossible for everyone to do so.

There are definitely not a few master craftsmen in this world who can build aircraft, but it is impossible to meet the requirements of high quality and low price, stable performance, and huge load capacity. In particular, the principle of electrolysis of water is not the object of research by mages at all. Magic has brought great convenience to this world. It also limits the development of natural science and technology. At least Henry has yet to see signs of industrial development, not even a slightly larger handicraft workshop.

Of course, the red-robed mages like Searle sneered at this kind of aircraft, and they preferred to stuff everything into the dimension bag. Then a teleport spell arrives at the designated location. Only the rich and powerful red robes are able to use the mage as a deliveryman so unscrupulously.

Looking at the logo on the badge, Nalia's eyes showed admiration. She said incoherently: "Are you really Henry Angomey?!! The ruler of the Principality of Dalaran?!! Oh my God! I am actually taking an adventure with my idol! This is incredible!"

Henry smiled and nodded. He really didn't expect that the noble girl in front of him was still his admirer. "That's right, I'm Henry Angomey. But it's best not to say my full name in public, otherwise there will be a lot of unnecessary trouble during the adventure."

Nalia agreed with a gulp full of excitement. "Don't worry, I will definitely keep this secret. I believe my aunt will have a very bright face when she finds out the news. She always said that I always make some dubious friends, and that adventurers are just dirtbags."

"I hate your aunt more and more now, she's just a vicious old woman." Imon pouted.

"Uh...Although I also agree with this point of view, but there is no way, who made her my aunt." Nalia sighed helplessly. Which young man would like a nagging elder, but who would call the other party his father's sister?

A sly smile appeared on Aimon's face, and he crawled to Nalia's ear and underestimated a few words. The latter's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he hugged the girl and kissed her hard. "Great, you are a genius. If the plan goes well, I can shut up my aunt forever."

"Although I don't know what you two are doing, it's best to stop for me first. There are a lot of trolls and snake mages upstairs waiting for us to clean up, so no accidents are allowed at this time." Seeing the two whispering, Henry immediately warned seriously. Although he didn't mind making Desia suffer a bit, before all the threats were resolved, it was better to have one more thing than one less thing.

The two girls with ghosts in their bellies looked at each other, and then they both closed their mouths and said nothing. Henry didn't have time to pay attention to their small thoughts now, and took the lead directly up the stairs to the second floor. According to Nalia's instructions, everyone went straight into the passage on the south side. As the servant who almost became troll food said, there are patrolling monsters everywhere.

However, a team composed of three mountain trolls and a ghost troll obviously couldn't pose any threat. They didn't even use magic, and they killed each other completely with just the magic weapon in their hands. Especially after Xina turned into a Jackie Chan, dealing with trolls is as easy as chopping melons and vegetables.

Just moments after the battle, suddenly, the door to the library was opened. Two snake men with yellowish scales and red tubes on their heads came out. One of them uttered a hoarse lingua franca: "Hiss...invaders! The Torgail will be delighted to see your corpses."

"I'll give you five seconds to disappear from my sight. Otherwise, I would mind studying the body structure of the Snakeman Mage." As she spoke, a bloodthirsty smile appeared on Sandy'er's face, and she did not hide the surging magical energy in her body.

The two snake mages flinched in front of the powerful force. Just when they were about to use the "teleportation" to escape, a sneer flashed across the sorceress's face, followed by a "dimension anchor" to seal off the surrounding space. Before the snake man could react, she directly "dispelled the magic" to dispel the opponent's magic protection, and then the two cold-blooded creatures were directly hit by the giant snake's long-handled cane, and soon died of poison.

Nalia pointed to the corpses on the ground with a face full of surprise and asked, "They are all about to leave, why do you want to kill them all?"

"Hahahaha! Let them go? Why should I let go of two enemies who might run back and report? Your brain is fine!" Sandyr sneered and said ironically. If it wasn't for the face of the master, she would directly teach this noble girl a lesson.
