Chapter 358: The Dilemma of the Shadow Thief

In the evening, the view of the wharf area is very charming. The golden afterglow of the setting sun fell, giving all the buildings a golden coat, especially the wavy sea in the distance, which looked like the entire seabed was covered with gold coins. But the people on the road are all in a hurry, and no one appreciates it.

Since the start of the underground war, the shadow thieves have basically been passively beaten. Especially in the last two weeks, even the vicinity of their headquarters has become unsafe. After nightfall, some powerful vampires often turn into bats and hover over the dock area. Once a suspicious target is found, a surprise attack will be launched. So far, at least 30 innocent people have been implicated in it.

No one will not cherish their lives, so everyone will hide in the house before dark. Except for a small number of Orioles (referring to women) who had to stand out at night because of the pressure of their lives, even sailors and bandits knew to find a tavern to hide. It can be said that those who still dare to walk around on the street either have absolute confidence in their own skills or are strangers who don't know anything.

Of course Henry and his party belonged to the former, even if the Vampire Queen Bardi came in person, they would have to go back sideways. They had just emerged from the shop of the dwarf blacksmith Cromwell and were walking towards the headquarters of the Shadow Thieves Guild. Along the way, Viconia has been thinking secretly how to get what she wants. For example, the secret of taming dragons, and the formula for life extension potions.

In her eyes, the young human man was full of mystery, and made people have a desire to explore. You should know that this reaction as an exiled dark elf is very abnormal. Because being too close will not only make the other person vigilant or even anger, but it will also trap oneself. Either way is very deadly.

Viconia didn't even know that Shar had moved her hands and feet. These desires were implanted in her thoughts through hints, making people a total slave without knowing it. The goddess of the night has always used believers as pawns and tools, using them to destroy everything in the past, present, and future, as life and death are never within the scope of consideration.

Henry was very jealous of such a god. He didn't imagine that some people would be confused by Shar's beautiful appearance and mystery, and then fell under the pomegranate skirt and became a loyal thug. It was this strict defense that did not give this sinister goddess an opportunity. So I had to exert influence on my pastor.

Half an hour later, the group arrived at the headquarters of the Shadow Thieves Guild on the west side of the dock area. This is a huge three-story building, covering an area of ​​half a street. Before they could get close to the front door, a thief who was in charge of the door came up and shouted: "Stop! Strangers are not welcome here. If you don't walk away, I will be welcome."

"Boy! You'd better swallow this sentence back, otherwise I don't mind seeing blood to the new axe." Kogen drew out his weapon and threatened. In his eyes, the shadow thieves are just a group of petty thieves, and several can be hacked to death with one axe.

"Don't... don't come over! Then... come again, I will call someone!" The dwarf's ferocity and cruelty obviously exceeded the thieves' expectations. He never thought that someone would rush to the gate of the Shadow Thieves Guild to do something.

"Enough, stop it. I'm here to seek cooperation, not kill them all." Henry said lightly, then threw a packaged letter over. "Give this to Renault Bloodhead, just say I'm waiting for him here."

"Okay... OK, just stay here and don't go anywhere." As the thief grabbed the letter and turned around, he ran inside.

Watching him pee. Kogen sneered loudly: "Hahahahaha! The stinky kid actually rushed to pretend to be an uncle in front of me. Get out of here, and go back to your mother's arms to get some milk."

"This is the quality of the members of the Shadow Thieves Guild? It doesn't seem to be great!" Viconia also whispered underestimated.

After a slight sigh, Henry explained to two teammates: "In fact, the quality of the Shadow Thieves Guild members is quite good, and the organizational structure is also very strict. However, the recent war losses have been too great. It is estimated that many elite players are almost dead. , The rest also hide and accumulate strength to wait for an opportunity to counterattack. As for the newcomers we saw at the door, they were sent out as bait to lure vampires to attack."

In fact, he didn't expect that the shadow thief would be down to such an extent that he could hardly keep the site in front of his house. It seems that the timing of my arrival this time is just right, and I'm afraid that Renault Bloodhead will run away a little later.

In fact, the current situation is worse than Henry expected. A few days ago, the vampire queen Bardi personally attacked the pillar of the union, the legendary thief Akanis. He is now lying on the bed with a serious injury, most of his body has been eroded by the peculiar energy, and he has found several pastors all at a loss.

Seeing his strongest subordinate slowly dying, Renault felt unspeakably sad. He knew very well that the reason why the vampire had not attacked until now was entirely because Akanis had not confirmed the death. Once the legendary thief swallows his last breath, I am afraid that the headquarters will be bloodbathed that night.

He had already prepared to escape, as long as there was a turmoil, he would immediately leave the tunnel. As for the other members of the trade union and the apparent leader, Ellen Linville, all will be sacrificed to attract the attention of the enemy and try to buy some time for himself.

Now the whole room is quiet to death, only Akanis makes a few weak " " occasionally. Almost everyone knows that the boss is in a very bad mood, and it is obviously very unwise to offend him at this time. Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps outside, and after a few seconds, the door was slammed open.

"Boss, there are a few arrogant guys outside who want to see you and asked me to bring this letter." The thief who was in charge of guarding the gate took out the letter and offered it with both hands.

Out of caution, Renault did not answer the letter immediately, but winked and asked a guy dressed as a mage to check it. He doesn't want to be infected with inexplicable poison or magical curse just because of carelessness. You have to know that many ambitious subordinate union leaders have done this before, so it's not wrong to be careful.

A few minutes later, the mage picked up the envelope and explained: "This letter itself is not a big problem, but I must remind you that the secret seal above belongs to a legendary mage."

"Can you confirm the identity of the other party?" Renault asked with a frown. He couldn't think of anyone who would come to him at this time, especially the other party still possesses such a powerful strength.

The mage shook his head regretfully. "No! If it wasn't for this master who didn't hide his cast level, I wouldn't be able to find out any information from here."

"Hey... I hope you don't come to trouble again." Renault sighed and opened the envelope. When he saw the eye-catching mark printed on it, his whole person was dumbfounded, his hands were shaking uncontrollably, and then he immediately kicked the thief who reported the news and shouted: "Quick! Go get these people. Please come in for me! Remember! Use it!"

"Yes...Yes, I'm going now." The thief got up from the ground and ran towards the door.

"You! Hurry up and get the most precious magical items in the warehouse. They may come in handy in a while. Also, go and call Ailang. I have something to discuss with him."

Renault recognized the secret mark of this at a glance. As the largest criminal organization in the Amn area, the shadow thief’s intelligence agency is quite developed. He had long received specific news, and knew that the turbulent dragon slaying incident during this period of time and the destruction of the Ronore family were all done by Henry and the Son of God.

From Renault's point of view, since the opponent has the ability to kill the "Flying Flames" of Balagas, there is definitely no problem dealing with vampires. But thinking about the current situation of the Shadow Thieves Guild, he couldn't help but feel a little headache. Obviously, hiring such an adventurous team will cost a huge price, not to mention including the sons of the legendary mage and the **** of killing Baal.

"Money alone is not enough, and the union doesn't have much cash on hand now. I hope that these few magic items at the bottom of the box will satisfy them, otherwise there will only be sub-sites." Renault muttered to himself with his head down. Calculate the resources that can be used at the beginning. It can be said that he has reached the end of the road, as long as he can eliminate the vampire and hold his position, he is willing to pay any price.

No one wants to fall from the peak of power, especially a boss with great power like Renault. But the shadow thieves are not a charity organization after all~lightnovelpub.net~ Once they lose power, they will be driven out by the other five members of the Shadow Council. In order to save his rights and life, he had already spared it, even if he would betray some of his benefits.

The thieves responsible for leading the way moved quickly, and a few minutes later they took the three to the union hall. Henry observed the interior design along the way, asking questions from time to time. I have to say that this place is very suitable for thieves. Whether it is a maze-like complex partition, or the arrow holes, traps, and hidden compartments that appear every few steps, they fully reflect the essence of the two words sneak attack.

The narrow corridor simply does not allow more than three people to walk side by side, completely restricting the crowded tactics. The secret road like a spider web is very convenient for thieves to gather and launch a surprise attack on some enemies, and after killing them all, they can retreat safely. As for the traps on the ground, there are as many as a cow's hair, and the sharp spikes are all poisoned to ensure that the blood seals the throat. He even felt that even if a thousand elite soldiers were sent in, it would be difficult for a few to get out alive, and the whole building was more terrifying than the castle.
