Broad World

After the passion passed, Henry quickly regained his sanity. !..He gently wiped Amelia's body, then covered the quilt, and left the Mage Tower alone in a simple wheelchair. With the increase in the number of (lover) lovers, he has a hunch that the number of children he will have in the future will not be too small, and may hope to surpass the lord of the ghost city, Telamante Tanshul. As long as he cultivates them carefully, he will definitely be able to Be your own good helper.

Of course, I can only think about it now, it will take at least a few decades to really reach the level of Prince Yinhun. You must know that one of the main reasons why there has been no civil strife in Shadow City after so many years is Telamante's own strength and his legendary sons.

As the saying goes, fight a tiger with a brother, and fight with a father and son. More than half of the high-ranking spellcasters in the City of Shadows are their own sons. How can the political situation be unstable under such circumstances? I am afraid that as long as someone dares to show the slightest sign of rebellion, they will immediately be attacked by several legends. Spellcaster suppression.

With envy for the lord of the ghost city, Henry cast teleportation magic and returned to Eratan's house. As soon as he entered the lobby, he saw his teammates sitting on the sofa, comforting Kaidong who was frowning. You don't need to ask, this paladin uncle must have found out his wife cheated on him after returning home, so he came here to ask for help.

"Hi! You're back! Come and think of a solution, Kaidong is in big trouble." Said Aimeng stood up and waved. The expression on her face was quite tangled, and she didn't know why.

"What's going on? Let's hear it." Henry asked, pushing the wheelchair to the middle. Although he already knew what happened. But you still have to pretend to ask, otherwise it is easy to make others suspicious.

Kaidong sighed slightly, and explained with a bitter face: "The thing is like this. When I got home yesterday afternoon, my wife Maria suddenly started complaining. After questioning, I found out that she was with a man named William Thorpe. A date with a foreign noble. I can’t believe it! I have encountered the most shameful betrayal! Damn it! When I think about it, I feel so angry that I can’t wait to send them both to court.”

Seeing the angry look of the old paladin in front of him, Henry shook his head slightly to persuade him: "Calm down, my friend, this matter is not as bad as you imagined. Maybe you should think about it calmly. How long have you lived?" Haven't been home. Haven't fulfilled the responsibilities of a husband and father. As your wife, Maria is in fear every day, so it's not surprising that she wants to find a spiritual comfort. Now all you have to do is try to Quiet it instead of making it public."

"I understand...I understand..." Kaidong kept repeating this sentence while covering his face. He also realized that he had an inescapable responsibility for this matter. So it became very frustrating. Even a little remorse.

"No. You don't understand. Look at this dejected expression. What you have to do now is to redeem, not give up. Go talk to this William Thorpe in person. No matter what the final result is, at least you have worked hard .”

For this kind of family ethics and other rhetoric, Henry can be said to come out of his mouth, and he also has a set. But once this kind of thing falls on his head, he will definitely arrest that man without hesitation, torture him with various tortures, and finally feed his soul to the devil.

But this set is obviously not suitable for paladins. You can tell by looking at Kaidong's current appearance. He didn't even have the slightest intention to take revenge on the other party in private. The most vicious method is to use legal means. After so many years, the concept of order has penetrated into his soul, no matter how angry and impulsive he is, it is impossible to do something too outrageous.

You must know that cheating is a very common thing on this continent, from kings and queens to common people, more or less they have personally experienced it or seen people around them have encountered it. Especially the aristocrats in developed areas are in a mess, and in some places it even happens between close relatives, such as brothers and sisters, mother and son, father and daughter, and so on.

Generally speaking, most families will not make any public announcements, and secretly reach some kind of agreement in private. Some people will spend a large sum of money as a hush money, while others choose not to interfere with each other, you look for your (mistress) wife, and I look for my face. Of course, there are some strong guys who will choose to kill to vent their anger.

Kaidong lowered his head and pondered for a few minutes, then suddenly raised his head and said loudly: "You're right! Avoiding any problems can't be solved. I'll go to the Mistrest Hotel in the shopping mall to talk to Sir William, and then I'll go back and ask Ma Does Liya still love me?"

"That's right, that's it, my friend. Go ahead, I believe the whole thing will have a perfect ending in the end." Henry said encouragingly and patted the paladin uncle on the shoulder. He can only help so much now, let the other parties resolve the rest.

"Thank you for your help. If the ending is perfect, I will bring my wife and two daughters to visit again." After speaking, Kaidong stood up and walked out without looking back.

Looking at his back, Xi Na said with emotion: "I really didn't expect that a person who gave everything for justice would still encounter family misfortune in his later years. This world is really unfair."

"Justice will definitely defeat evil, and the mentor will definitely defeat the villain who destroyed other people's families." Saili Love said angrily. In her eyes, I'm afraid all the guys who cheated outside of marriage should go to the gallows.

Hearing the speech of the paladin girl, Yao En curled her lips in disdain: "That's not necessarily true, you must know that women are very emotional, and their choices are usually unexpected. Lisa also said that she only loves me, but In the end, she married a murderous thief leader."

"Who is Lisa? You don't seem to have mentioned it before?" Amon's face showed a hint of curiosity.

"Uh... she is my ex-girlfriend, but she is married and has a child now." After saying this, Yao En's eyes flickered. It is clear that time has not made him forget his old love.

Looking at this group of teammates with various problems, Henry couldn't help but shook his head with a smile. Just when he was about to say something. The butler suddenly walked in quickly and shouted: "Duke, someone sent a few boxes just now, saying they are for your reward."

"Oh? Who, why didn't you invite them in?" Henry asked a little strangely. He knew that this should be the reward for participating in the siege and suppression of the mind flayer, but it seemed a bit abnormal that the other party would not even enter the door.

"Not sure, one of them asked me to pass this letter on to you." As he spoke, the steward took out the envelope, which was stamped with the seal of the Council of Six representing the highest authority in Amn.

Henry's face changed slightly, and he immediately took it over and opened it up for a closer look, and was shocked by the contents inside. I saw that it was written in standard lingua franca:

"Dear Your Excellency the Duke. Thank you very much for everything you have done for this city in the recent period. Due to the huge threat of mind flayer infiltrators. We will launch a joint operation at midnight today, and there may be some riots at that time, Please don’t pay too much attention. Also, I hope you and your teammates stay inside the house tonight. It’s best not to appear on the street unless necessary. To avoid misunderstanding.”

no doubt. This time the council is serious. It is very likely that the Masked Mage Guild, Shadow Thieves, the major temples, and the Knights were all involved. Anyone who has anything to do with the mind flayer will be arrested and investigated one by one. Until all the mind flayers hiding inside are captured.

After reading the letter, Henry raised his head and said solemnly to all the people present: "After dark, one counts as one, and no one is allowed to leave this house."

"Why?" Aimon was the first to jump out and ask. She has always been very active, and likes to go to the nearby tavern to stay for an hour or two after dark, listening to the strange adventure stories told by travelers from north to south.

"Remember the piece of leather we found in the underground base yesterday? The council plans to arrest it according to the list above, and it will be done tonight. For safety reasons, everyone must stay in their rooms after dinner inside."

Henry purposely said this resolutely, leaving no room for negotiation at all. He knew very well that both Aimeng and Yao En often sneaked out in the middle of the night, usually it was fine to turn a blind eye, but now it was absolutely impossible.

When Yao En heard the news, he immediately let out a scream and complained loudly: "Damn it! This evening's business is going to be ruined again. These bureaucrats will mess around if they have nothing to do!"

"Okay, don't always stare at such a small amount of money. Just now, someone sent the reward for the last mission, let's share it." Henry winked at the butler as he said.

The latter immediately understood and waved to the servant waiting at the door. Soon, several boxes made of hardwood were brought in. He opened all the covers by himself, and saw that except for a box of black and purple stones, which looked a bit like gems, everything else was filled with gold coins. Roughly, there are almost 30,000 gold coins. Although it is not as much as last time, considering that it is with a large army, it is already quite rich.

Yao En was dazzled by the golden light. While frantically grabbing the coins, he smirked: "Hahahahaha! Gold coins! Gold coins! I love these little golden things."

Henry ignored the crazy dwarf, but picked up a shiny black stone and observed it carefully. Obviously, the temple and council would never send too ordinary things, and these stones probably had some special uses.

Just when he was about to use spell detection, the steward hurriedly leaned over and whispered, "Duke, these are the specialty products of the Maztec continent, obsidian. This box is almost one-tenth of the annual cost of Amn's overseas colonies. If it is converted into gold coins, it may be a rather terrifying figure."

"Obsidian? No wonder it's so smooth." Henry also had a surprised expression on his face. He really didn't expect that the council would actually send out such a generous gift. You must know that due to the inconvenient transportation, the price of special products from the Maztec Continent has soared more than sixty times in Faerun, not to mention that obsidian is still a very good alchemy material.
