Chapter 98 Alliance

Henry suddenly remembered after hearing what Laila said, the main purpose of his trip this time was to form an alliance with Deepwater City. Later, after a series of exciting adventures underground, this matter has already been forgotten. “Thank you for your reminder, otherwise I will forget it. I’m really sorry, my brain is now full of adventures and precious magic scrolls.”

Laila looked at Henry with a smile. “I can understand your feelings now. After all, no one had a young age. I remember that tomorrow must be free for a whole day, when the lords will invite you to the palace in the castle area to discuss specific matters.”

Henry nodded. “I will spare the whole day tomorrow and wait for the council to receive it. In addition, I am afraid I will stay in the mage tower overnight. I hope it will not disturb you and Master Kelben.”

“It’s okay, I’m happy to communicate with you, a young wizard who is both capable and not extreme. Because you did a very good job this time, I decided to teach you two magics “Guardian Whip” and “Guardian Whip” that I invented by myself. Black rod technique”.” After talking, Kyle took out two scrolls with a smile and handed them to Henry.

After the latter took the scroll, he immediately cast a recognition technique, and the specific information on the two spell scrolls appeared in his mind.

Kelben’s Guardian Whip Seventh-level Spell:

Created by Kelben, it dispels an 8th level or lower spell protection magic on the target creature, and it will be activated again within a few seconds. If the target has multiple magic protection, the highest protection spells will be removed first. If the spell level is the same, one of them will be randomly removed.

Kelben black rod spell eighth level:

Created by Kelben, cast on any non-magical stick or cane, the blessed weapon will produce powerful magical power. Hitting the target will have a dispelling effect, and will make him lose a prepared spell with the highest level.

is indeed one of the most powerful legendary wizards in the entire continent. The two advanced spells he created can quickly dissolve the various magical protection effects on the wizard. In the battle between spellcasters, whoever can break the opponent’s protective spells first will win the final victory.

Henry carefully put the two scrolls into the scroll box. “Thank you very much for your trust, I will not let you down.”

“I hope you will always stick to the right path and never get close to evil.” Kelben warned seriously. After speaking, he took his wife to the castle area and talked to the lords about recent events.

Debra came over and asked curiously: “Master, can I see this spell?”

“Of course there is no problem.” Henry took out the scroll box and handed it to the female wizard. Then he continued: “I think this underground adventure is really profitable. The notes and spell scrolls we get will be enough for us to study for a long time.”

Debra looked at the magic scroll in his hand with greedy eyes. “A very powerful spell. I heard that only people trusted by Kelben will be taught by him.”

Henry took out a note in Herast’s black robe and handed it over. “This is about the technique of how to speed up the casting speed. You can study it first.” Then he turned around and said to the other two people: “I’m going to the warehouse below to take a look and buy some things. Short time. You should go back and rest separately, and we will return to Hart Island after the alliance tomorrow.” After speaking, he turned and walked down the stairs.

Debra excitedly returned to the room and took this mad mage’s notebook and began to read. The descriptions of how to shorten the spell and speed up the casting action gave her a lot of inspiration. Debra, who had never been in contact with a legendary mage, never thought that magic could be used in this way.

She crazily recorded the various techniques described in it, and practiced it from time to time. Soon the entire room was failed to cast spells, and the magical energy produced was exploded beyond recognition. Fortunately, she blessed herself with protective magic in advance, otherwise it would be a pool of minced meat now. Looking at the surrounding rooms, she laughed mockingly. “It seems that this technique cannot be learned overnight, and more practice will be required in the future.” After speaking, she cleaned up the messy room.

At the same time, Henry was already picky in Kelburn’s underground warehouse, and the massive magic scrolls inside made him unable to choose. It is indeed the archmage who claims to have mastered all the side magic, he even found some pleasant magic used by succubus in a corner. Three hours later, Henry walked out with dozens of magic scrolls. After the golem’s calculations, he paid more than half of the gold coins and nearly a third of the gems. After sighing that the advanced scroll is so expensive, he returned to his room and started to rest. There will be a negotiation waiting for him tomorrow.

One night passed quickly. At noon the next day, Kelben and Laila brought Henry to the palace in the castle district. Pilgelen and a dozen hidden lords have been waiting here for a long time, when he saw Henry walk in Pilgelen stood up and gave him a hug. “Welcome to Lord Henry, and we will remember everything you have done for Deepwater City. The Lords of Deepwater will never forget anyone who has helped us. Now let us discuss the specific matters of the alliance. ”

Henry bowed slightly to all the lords. “It is my honor to be able to form an alliance with Deepwater City. This is the most prosperous port city in the northwest of the entire mainland. Civilization and commerce are flourishing here. I hope that after the alliance, we can help each other and resist the threat from evil.” The chair prepared for me was made down, and quietly waiting for questions from the lords.

“Before forming an alliance, I would like to ask a question first. It is reported that you have bought a large number of slaves in Luskan. What’s your explanation for this?” A masked lord stood up and raised his own question.

Henry raised his head and glanced at the answer: “These slaves have now been pardoned into civilians. They are now living a peaceful and prosperous life on my territory. It can be said that I rescued them from Luskan. This is not Violate the principles of Deep Water City.”

Pirguelen nodded. “Indeed, the slaves in the land of Earl Henry have been allocated land. After a year of hard work, their lives are still quite good. And they all received not low salaries when they were building the city. This is the end of the matter.”

The lord who was speaking saluted Henry. “Sorry, I just want to confirm your inclination. I don’t mean anything else. I am very disgusted with the slave trade. I apologize again for the inconvenience caused to you.” After speaking, he sat down in a chair.

“I heard that your territory has grown a lot of spices. I don’t know if the Chamber of Commerce in Deep Water City can unite to carry out large-scale acquisitions after the alliance.” Another lord stood up and asked.

Henry thought for a while and replied: “The spices grown on my island have been divided into two parts, one part to be sold to Duke Anta Silvershield at Baldur’s Gate. He is my wife’s elder brother, and at the same time I am here. Baldur’s Gate is a political ally. There is no way to sell this part to other people. As for the other half, I can allocate a large part to the Chamber of Commerce in Deepwater City for sale, and the rest will be left on the island before attracting merchants. Come to dock and trade. This distribution method does not know whether you are satisfied.”

The lord lowered his head and thought for a while and then asked: “So what about salt? The salt trade between you and the Seven Suns Alliance has begun to cover the entire Baldur’s Gate and most of Amn. Can this business surrender part of it to Deepwater City? Chamber of Commerce to cooperate.”

Henry lowered his head and considered for a while, the sales scope of the Seven Suns Alliance was mainly concentrated in the south of Baldur’s Gate. If you increase some output and sell it to the northern region, you can also increase your income a lot. I believe Jasso will not be too opposed to this matter. After making up his mind, he looked at the lord. “It is possible to increase some production appropriately, but I have a requirement. Your sales range must not go past the Baldur Gate in the south, otherwise I will terminate this trade.”

“Please don’t worry Our sales network will not cross that line. The trade talks about here, I have no problems.” After that, the lord also did it.

Pilgelen glanced at the other lords and found that they had no intention of asking any more questions. He stood up and said to Henry: “Now let us discuss the issue of population and military strength. I don’t know how many people and troops your territory has, and what are their races and basic weapons configuration?”

Henry thought for a while to answer: “The entire territory now has a population of about 100,000, and the ordinary human army maintains one thousand and five. Their main configuration is half-length armor, long swords, shields and crossbows. This army is usually stationed in In Clearwater City. In addition, there are nearly a hundred barbarian heavy infantry, some druid apprentices and mage apprentices. I have a complete set of druid training bases, and I also own a mage tower. These are basically all of the territory. Armed forces.”

Henry didn’t mention Robert’s underground union. After all, this was just an ordinary alliance. Deep Water City had not yet fully won his trust.

Pilgelen nodded. “Considering that your territory is an island, these forces are basically able to maintain law and order and deal with most emergencies. If your territory is attacked, Deepwater City will send an army of no more than two thousand people. Rescue. If Deepwater City is invaded, you also need to send at least 500 people to the war. If there are no problems, we can sign a treaty to form an alliance.”
