Chapter 373, Share's Secret Meeting House

After getting a clue about the Skaven from General Kesserik Somme, Aaron went to the address given by General Somme to investigate.

For this old general, Aaron did feel the sincerity from the other party, he not only gave himself a large sum of money, but also really cared about the Skaven rats, Kestrick said that in any case, as long as a clue is found, the army of the Moonrise Tower will be dispatched at any time, just to exterminate all the rats.

Living in the castle for many years, suffering the pain of losing his family, and having a passion for the cause of exterminating rodents, old and strong, Catherrick's performance has made Aaron feel the same way, both families were originally families that have respected Suren Ma Ma for hundreds of years, and it is difficult for Aaron not to put himself in the old general's shoes.

The only thing that strikes Aaron is that his Slaanesh power tells him that Catheric is very empty inside.

Not joy, not sadness, no abundance of emotions, all that remains is emptiness, complete emptiness.

This is not like the believers of Suren Mama, whose teachings are to dare to love and hate, and to treat all people equally.

Only Suren Mama's old rival Goddess Shar will pay attention to a lonely, empty and cold, Shar's believers will finally dedicate all their feelings and memories to the Night Lady in exchange for his favor, the Night Lady sometimes gives the believers great strength, but more often than not, Shar will not react, there has been a Shar priest who religiously offered all his own, her feelings, her memories, her life, her everything.

Eventually, when the priest Shar came to the end of her life, Shar did not welcome her into her kingdom, and there was only mocking laughter in the void, mocking the pastor for having a problem with her brain.

She ends up unclaimed, forever wandering the netherworld of the endless wilderness.

This is Sha'er, she's so cool, you don't understand.

But even so, there are still many people who are willing to believe in the Night Lady, because Shar is very powerful, even among the powerful gods, he is one of the best at fighting, compared to his sisters, Shar retains the vast majority of priesthood, and her control over the Fallen Underworld and the Void, the primordial darkness means that he can easily grant great power to mortals.

Following the location given by Kathrick, Aaron made his way through the block to the place where the Harperists League first discovered the Skaven Rats, where the Harpers encountered the Skaven in a tunnel around the ghetto.

Aaron also took a look at the lives of civilians near the Tower of Moonrise.

This observation made Aaron feel that something was not quite right.

A simple set of chalets had mostly collapsed, and a smoky main house housed two families, two livestock sheds, a steam room, and a stove for roasting bulgur or rye.

As for the furniture, there was only a table, a bench, several clay plates and wooden cabinets.

Seeing Aaron appear, the eyes of the men and women crowded in the main room immediately lit up, and the women took the headscarf and wrapped their hair in a haphazard manner, and stepped forward excitedly: "Is it the general's man?" Are you finally willing to trust us? ”

General's man?

Aaron noticed that the man in the family was lying on the bed, and the bed was crowded with a few yellow-skinned, finger-sucking boys and girls, and it was clear that the family was not doing well.

Odd.

Aaron decided to take the plan into account: "Yes, the general sent me to inspect the situation, I was given an order on the fly, can you tell me more about the situation?" ”

"We've said it many times, my lord, many times, many times!" The woman complained as if she were complaining, but redescribed the situation with Aaron.

Interestingly, from the farmer's point of view, everything is so peaceful, and Mr. Mikael, who has lived here for generations, has been working diligently on the farm, and has maintained a good life with his brothers and two families through the annual output of the nearby land.

But this tranquility was shattered by the harpists, and one day a group of people claiming to be the Harpists' League arrived, took with them a strange contraparaption, and the farm never rested ever since.

Today the cattle are missing, tomorrow Mr. Mikael's brother begins to catch a strange disease, and the day after tomorrow he sees strange creatures in the night, and there is a creaking sound under the ground.

Strange footprints often appeared on the ground after the snow and disappeared into the barn, the mailbox of the house was turned over, newspapers appeared in the corner of the attic, cheese was gnawed open, and even Mrs. Mikael heard the chewing of the house.

In a fit of rage, Mr. Mikael decided to search the entire farmhouse, and he called all the farmers in the vicinity and searched the entire farmhouse from beginning to end.

Nothing was found.

The peasants still did not believe in evil, and they continued to search again and again, but still found nothing.

The Mikael family had no choice but to report the incident, and the lord sent two soldiers to check on the situation.

The two soldiers said they were looking for clues, but the world evaporated, and a few days later, the villagers noticed that the water coming from the water tower emitted a foul smell, and they decided to open the water tower to take a look.

The missing soldier was inside, his body was stretched into a strip more than ten meters long, and the whole person was stuffed into the village's water storage tower from above.

In other words, the whole village drank corpse water for a few days.

Another soldier has been missing.

"Your Excellency, you're finally here!" The peasant woman humbly prayed, "We can count on you!" ”

"Understood, I'll check." Aaron didn't shirk.

In a way, the Great Horned Rat was indeed the one he had brought in, and it was his responsibility to fix the trouble caused by the Skaven Rat Man.

"You're so nice! Just like that adult! The peasant woman said excitedly: Only you and that adult really care about us!"

"The sir?"

"Don't you know? After the Venerable Duke of Karatu in the North, the half-breed of Baldur's Gate, he defended His Excellency Takshi of Sword Bay in a series of strange events! ”

"The guardian of Sword Bay, our great savior!"

…………

Following the peasant woman's prompts and the harpists' marks, Aaron managed to find a secret entrance hidden behind the windmill, and when he opened the partition, a strong smell of blood came to his face.

According to the harpists, the underground area near Baldur's Gate is full of similar tunnels, smuggling, secret societies, and underground shrines, and this trading city founded by Bodean has always been both "infamous" and "mecca of opportunity".

Even the most cautious adventurer will keep an eye on his path at Baldur's Gate, where even life can be measured in money, and greed is deadlier than dragon's breath.

Baldur's Gate is known for its chaos and wildness, where crime is always accompanied by opportunity, and any commodity can be bought, sold, or captured in the cold. If an item can be priced, then you're sure to find it at Baldur's Gate.

Aaron carefully applied himself several protective spells, an acceleration spell and oil on the soles of his feet, his robes hardened by the magic of the metal wind, the shield of thorns all over his armor, and the shield of Tzeentch's divine spark enveloped his body.

The Sword of the Dark Moon was held high, the bright moonlight illuminating the bottomless tunnel, and Aaron stepped on the damp ground, carefully watching his surroundings.

The smell of blood reverberated in the air, and judging by the power of fear, blood was fresh.

"Nezumi's footprints." Aaron crouched down and made out the footprints on the ground: "The breath of the Dimension Stone energy." ”

That's right, it's the Skaven.

It's too difficult for the civilians here to see through the disguise of the Skaven.

The Skaven have always been known for hiding in the world of the medieval Warhammer, this group of rats from the Skaven Demon Capital has never done bad things, and even in the Black Death War, once pushed the empire to the brink of destruction, and finally the Grand Duke of Middenheim "Rat Exterminator" Mandred defeated the Skaven in the Battle of Wuthering Hills, saved the Empire, and was chosen as the Emperor.

However, after only a few decades, the Skaven Ratmen have made the Empire believe that "the Nezumi do not exist" by assassinating the Emperor Mandred, gradually destroying evidence and records, and secretly diverting attention from those who know one by one.

It can be said that he is a master of secrecy.

Aaron wasn't surprised by this, he was more concerned about the "Lord Tucker, the Guardian of Sword Bay", as Mikaelf said.

Clearly, Birac has created himself as a "Guardian of Sword Bay", whether it is fighting rat tides, dealing with bandits, or relocating displaced people, Birac is radiant and does his best to fight on the front line as a Bodite, at least in the surrounding area, the legend of the Tak is already circulating.

It seems that this time our Primordial Demon Prince has learned wisely.

Aaron couldn't help frowning, maybe as the emperor said, Birac is actually very smart, very cunning, even the emperor is not absolutely sure that he can defeat Birac.

It is not difficult to understand that the Lord of Mankind is not completely sure that he will be able to defeat Birac when he is on the verge of becoming a god, while the Emperor is already qualified to become a god in his heyday, but the Lord of Mankind refuses.

Thankfully, as the Emperor said, Birac was defeated by his own arrogance every time.

This time, Birac, who has made a comeback, has already understood the nature of the kingdom's faith, and it is far more difficult to deal with than the last time Birac, who simply made trouble on the Moande Road and tried to absorb the divine essence of Bouille.

Nurgle, Nurgle, what is the great love of fat grandpa?

Aaron continued down the deep, narrow path.

The underground tunnels of Baldur's Gate have always been very claustrophobic and cramped, as they can dig through other areas if you are not careful.

After crossing the corridor, the scenery in front of Aaron suddenly opened up, the air was filled with the smell of blood and decay, and after two benches, a small meeting place appeared in front of Aaron, a simple stone table was placed above the high platform, and fourteen stone benches were lined up below, and the benches were hung with the corpses of the Skaven rat people.

Slave Rat, Clan Rat, Storm Rat!

Rat Rat has suffered a major blow here!

Aaron hurried to check what was going on here.

Eclipse Attack, Shadow Energy.

Every dead Skaven carried this energy with them, and all of them died from similar injuries.

Shadows? Eclipse?!

Aaron examined it for a moment before he understood something, and he quickly rummaged through the assembly hall, looking for clues among the corpses of the nezumi, and soon, a broken emblem appeared in Aaron's field of vision.

The moment he saw the emblem, Aaron's face immediately became ugly.

Shar.

He was not mistaken, it was the Night Lady who killed the Skaven Ratmen!

Although dog-eat-dog is quite pleasant, but ...... Didn't you say that the Tower of Moonrise was the domain of the Somme family?

Why is there a meeting place for Shar believers here?!

Aaron felt that when he had finished his investigation, it was necessary to go to General Catherik.

Is this like a word in the territory of your pious family, where you have worshipped Suren Mama for generations (Catheric believes in the face of the maiden of Sulun Moon) in the Shar assembly hall?

Sure enough, as Aaron investigated, a statue of the god Shar was revealed in front of Aaron, this idol was about two meters and a half high, dressed in a gorgeous tight-fitting dancer dress, holding two knives and bare feet, and his face was covered by a semicircular crown.

Each of the two knives carried the remains of a Skaven Assassin, and in front of the idol of Thal was a nezumi bone mask of the Skaven Grey Prophet.

Shar!

Aaron looked at the idol of Mama's sister with a complicated expression, the two ancient goddesses have been fighting from the beginning of chaos to the present, although the Salian family has worshiped the Silver Virgin since ancient times, and has always told Aaron Shar that it is the most evil, perverted, vicious and shameless existence, but in fact, Aaron knows that compared to the Lady of Suren who has a somewhat weak personality and is weaker, many of the electric egg online articles he has read in his previous life are obviously more respected and liked Shar more.

And even the most extreme Suren believers will not deny the strength of Sha'er, compared to Suren, who has been in decline for a long time and once fell to a weak level of divine power, Sha'er has always retained the core priesthood and control of the Fallen Shadow Underworld, and her sister has always beaten her sister.

Aaron didn't look at the idol of Shar much, his gaze lingered for a moment on the idol's feet with a golden bracelet and a golden ankle ring, a little disappointed.

Why didn't these Shar believers give any other tribute to their goddess!

Otherwise, watch me steal a wave of Sha'er's tribute and give Su Lun Ma a bad breath?

Win!

Aaron was in front of the statue of Shar for a moment, continuing to check for other signs.

It looks like it was originally a meeting place for the Lady of the Night's underground secret organization, and then the Skaven took over the place and planted the Dimensionstone Drill Missile, and then the Harpists found it, but the Skaven Ratman fired a missile but it was a dud, the Nezumi retreated, and the Harpists recovered the Dimensionstone Drill Missile.

It is uncertain what happened after that, it may be that the followers of Shar came back to destroy the nezumi, or it may be that the death of the nezumi attracted the attention of the followers of Shar and sacrificed the nezumi to the lady of the night, in short, the nearby nezumi were killed, and two Skaven assassins and a gray prophet became sacrifices to Shar.

I'm late.

Aaron sighed, and he continued to search for a while to see if there were any other clues, or items of value.

There really is!

In the drawer beneath the statue of Share, Aaron found a copy of The Return of Nessreel.

This appears to be the script of the Shahr Church, and the stage play is divided into four acts.

They are "The Alliance of Seven Fishing Villages, the Rise of the Big and Small Sex Kings".

"The Land of Miracle Mages of Mankind, the Promise of Shar's Decision".

The folly of Karthas, the fall of Nethril.

The story of Act IV caught Aaron's attention.

The title of the fourth act is "The Big Plan of the Night Lady, the Great Return - The Arrival of the City of the Shadows".

"When the year of darkness returns, Shar will rule the world!"

Shadow City!

Aaron flipped through the script, and his mind automatically conjured up the voice and smile of the self-proclaimed princess of Netherland, Esty Tanshur.

It seems that what this sister of the Netherworld City said is true, and the Night Lady does intend to bring the Netherworld back at an opportune time.

Thinking about the mysterious Misty in her mind, before she knew it, a pair of slender jade hands wrapped her arms around Aaron's neck from behind, and before she knew it.

The familiar scent of night orchids, long purple hair, and purple pupils.

The princess of the Ghost City, Missy, threw her arms around Aaron's neck from behind without triggering any precautions, and whispered in his ear with a sly smile, "You've come to the wrong place, Chosen One of the Moon Maidens!" ”

"Since you're here, don't think about leaving~!"

Updated, ask for a ticket duck~
