Chapter 104: The Sewer Conspiracy

Luskan, the city of a thousand sails, is known to be one of the ruling cities in the northern part of the Sword Sea. The main population here is the northern inhabitants of the island of Rosim, who sailed here as pirates in their early years and settled there. A council of five senior captains - all former pirate leaders - rules the city, but the real power is in the hands of an evil mage society called the Arcane Brotherhood. Arcane Brotherhoods generally avoid clashes with Waterdeep and Am, and their targets are mainly small cities and merchants who can't defend themselves.

But in fact, their strength is just like their character of bullying the weak and fearing the hard, as a well-known spell-casting organization on the continent of Faerun, they are not as powerful as the red-robed mage and the city of mages, and the leader with the highest spellcasting level in the brotherhood is only a level 18 spellcaster......

They are obsessed with the struggle with their own internal power system, and also like to focus on some potential new territories, they will use various methods, such as sending spies to destroy, or sending beasts to infect, spread plagues, etc., to gain control of that territory, no matter how bad it is, they can also tie up the other party to form a relationship of interest, of course, they must have the advantage.

In the intricate sewers of Tuk Town, several ornate robes are weaving through them, and two clay golems are in front of them to clear the way, apparently intent on building a secret stronghold in them.

It stands to reason that the drainage system of a small town is not so complicated, but the person who designed this link is the extremely clean Oriental Dancing Girl, who made a very complex design drawing regardless of the cost, but the result is that the workers of Tuke Town have not been able to complete it according to Ling's idea until now.

But the effect of the Oriental Dancing Girl is also very significant. Half of the credit for the apparent cleanliness of Tuke Town has to do with the sewer pipes.

Now these complex labyrinthine sewers are cheaper for a few members of the Arcane Brotherhood, who have chosen a hidden terrain with little effort. Then manipulate the two clay golems to start the construction work.

"Oreo, how did you say we were assigned here by our mentor to do this chore. It never occurred to me that as a noble spellcaster, I would one day be crowded in this stinking and filthy sewer. A young male mage said, he kept applying air filtration to himself, but he still looked like he had eaten stool.

"Okay Rubio, don't complain, you don't know the rules of the Arcane Brotherhood, it's better to work hard, otherwise you'll be miserable again when they assign you to the ship as an accompanying mage." The female mage named Oreo picked up a hairpin, fixed her long hair, lifted up her sleeves, and exerted a brute force on herself, and began to work with the clay golem.

"I don't want to be the mage of those pirate ships, those pirates are rude. The food at sea is poor, the bumpy environment makes people unable to calm down and meditate, and there is the potential danger in the sea, whether it is encountering deep-sea monsters or storms and tsunamis, our lives are in danger! Another young mage looked horrified when he heard this, the accompanying mages of the pirate ship were the spellcasting powers that the Arcane Brotherhood had given to the pirates of Luskan when they traveled, and those candidates were the Brotherhood mages who had made mistakes, except for the newcomers......

"Well, I don't want to go there and suffer, so let's hurry up and get to work." The young mage named Rubio also blessed himself with a few stat-increasing spells, and then began to carry the crushed stone from the clay golem to the side. But he didn't stop complaining, babbling about why their mentor didn't lend them the advanced version of the Clay Golem, the Stone Golem, or they would have been able to dig up the secret stronghold in just one day......

And they didn't notice that there was a shadow of a dead spot behind them. A pair of piercing eyes watched them until they stopped to rest in the middle of their work, when the owner of that eye turned away from the sewers......

"Chief. The target has let his guard down. The thief-dressed guy stepped back to the other side of the sewer, after making sure no one was following him. He pulled out an emerald green emblem from his cuff and whispered.

"Well, you're doing a great job. The garrison will be at the target location in 5 minutes, and you will continue to monitor it and report it if anything unexpected happens. Surprisingly, within a few seconds, a slightly neutral voice came from the emblem.

"Understood." The wanderer replied accurately to the emblem, and the figure leaned down and went into a state of stealth, and his body suddenly disappeared in the dim environment.

"Rubio, James, I always feel like I'm feeling a little nervous, like something bad is going to happen next." On the other side of the sewers, three arcane brotherhood spellcasters sat down to take a sip of water and prepare to rest, when the female mage Oreo suddenly told her two friends about the unwarranted throbbing in her heart.

"Don't talk nonsense, nothing is happening here, it is said that the official lord of the Starry Night Collar is now traveling in the outside world, and has handed over the entire territory to a little hairy child who is not an adult to take care of, what can he find?" Rubio was amused by his girlfriend's unwarranted concern, which was shared by Mage James.

"It's okay, besides, we sneaked into this nascent territory secretly, they have no idea of our existence, and when we dig out the space and hide it with a spell later, we can get out of this stinking sewer, to be honest, I really don't want to stay here for a second."

"Oh, yes, I feel like you're going to live here for the rest of your life......" At this moment, an unfamiliar voice suddenly appeared among the three of them, and the three arcane brotherhood spellcasters were stunned and hurriedly jumped up......

"Shoot the arrows!" With a cold and murderous tone, the sound of countless triggers pulling mixed with the whistling of crossbow arrows resounded in the silent sewers, and the arcane brotherhood mage named James was half a beat slower, and before he could open the protective magic items on his body, he was shot into a hedgehog by locust-like arrows.

Rubio and Oreo turned on their protective ranged weapons for the first time to survive the first wave of attacks, and the grumbling mage looked in horror at the well-armed guards blocking the exit, and the breezy expression of the previous few seconds was indifferent.

"You ......" Rubio tried to say something, but he stopped abruptly in the middle of his sentence, because he found that his heart was cold, half of the sharp blade was exposed from his chest, and the young mage's head tilted, and his body lost its vitality in an instant! (To be continued.) )
