Chapter 265 Messenger From the Underdark
At the city hall of Askatra, the leaders of the uprising people gathered in the office of Mayor Bailana. Of course, Bailana was no longer the mayor. She escaped from Askatra with the defeated Knights on the day of the uprising. City of Catla.
Several leaders of the uprising, including Handak, the civilian representative, Old Diat, the beggar's representative, Ms. Hathaway, the businessman's representative, Jack, the craftsman's representative, and Renoir Bloodhead, the shadow thief's representative, gathered together.
Raynor-Bloodhead infiltrated the uprising team because the six knights stationed in Ascatla ruthlessly wiped out the local snake shadow thieves guild.
The shadow thieves who believe in Max, the god of thieves, are of course at odds with the six knights. The knights who believe in light will not need a group of thieves to help maintain underground order in the shadows. The shadow thieves have occupied the merchant capital for many years, and through various This method also accumulated a large amount of wealth, which was used as military expenses for the Knights' garrison.
The tax was levied on the Shadow Thieves, and Ellen Linville couldn't bear it, but before he could go back and prepare to gather his brothers to cause trouble, he was assassinated!
Renoir-Bloody Head could guess without even thinking, who the person who assassinated Ellen must be the nobles who had entrusted Ellen-Linville to do their private affairs.
How could that group of people not know that there was something in Ai Lang's hands that would be blackmailed by him? God's servants occupied Acheng. At this critical moment when the power structure was reshuffled, the nobles did not want a thief leader to hold any evidence against them. .
Anyway, the knights had already expressed their intention to attack the Shadow Thieves Guild. The nobles were not afraid of the shadow thieves' revenge after murdering Ai Lang, so they decisively planned the assassination operation.
Without the protection of the Patron Saint of Shadow Thieves, Ellen Linville suffered such hatred at the hands of noble assassins. The king of assassins of a generation was assassinated to death. It was really ironic.
Raynor-Bloodhead knew that the Shadow Thieves Guild and the Bredero Troupe were involved in a lot, and he felt that it would not be a good idea to fall behind during the liquidation. He was unwilling to leave such a big business behind, so he led the Shadow Thieves to escape from Amn and left Amn. The Amn Shadow Thieves are like fish out of water. There is no room for survival in a city under the control of lords and temples.
As a result, Renoir Bloodhead simply surrendered to the rebels. During the battle, many knights stepped on the traps set by the shadow thieves and blocked the attack, only to die tragically under the guns of the rebels.
The fighting of the uprising was over, and the city of Askatra seemed to be back in the hands of the people. The invaders were driven out of Amn and fled in panic.
But these six people felt heavy because more and more news came that no country in the entire Faerûn continent supported Amn. During the uprising, Amn merchants who were doing business in other places were arrested and imprisoned. All countries were organizing armies to ask Bo Gate of Virtue and Tethyr assemble,
Thanks to Faerun's backward transportation and military logistics system, foreign intervention forces are not yet able to mobilize troops. However, the siege network surrounding Amn on all sides has gradually taken shape, and the arrival of the enemy is not far away.
They decided to revolt because they couldn't bear it and didn't know what to do in order to live in the suffocating God-controlled country. They had to revolt. But after the uprising, they found that they didn't know what to do in order to survive in a crisis-ridden situation.
After driving away the knights, they found that the response of the Faerûn kingdoms was extremely violent, as if they had broken the sky!
Is it so rebellious to pursue freedom and protect private property?
It turns out that in the eyes of Faerun's upper class, freedom does not belong to the people, nor does wealth belong to the people. Everything is a gift from God and should be governed by the apostles and servants of the gods!
Although the fierce responses from various countries have alerted the people who participated in the uprising, and they are convinced that they have escaped a huge scam, but now they have to face the attacks of countless scammers and deceived people.
If only a very few people know the truth, then for the majority of people who are deceived, those who know the truth are not the deceived, but liars.
Dame Hathaway was elected as the female prime minister of the First Republic of Amn, but she actually did not have enough ability to lead a country.
She had a small business talent, but now she has realized that business talent is not a useful ability in this world. No matter how many gold coins she earns, it is no match for a decree from the lord or an oracle.
She actively encouraged the people to participate in the uprising, used all her family property as military supplies, and even rushed to the battlefield with a gun herself, just to regain Io, her true love.
…
The new six-person Amn Council was welcoming two guests. The two people walked into the conference room wearing hooded headbands.
One of them lifted his hood, and a pretty face and bright red hair appeared in front of him. Every representative present knew this person, and even said that every Amn citizen knew him.
She is the famous movie star Monroe in Fallon.
But now, she is already the most notorious female devil second only to Bradero, a red monster known as the Enchantress.
Soon the chosen people of God had seen that Monroe was a shape-shifter, and Elminster was one of them. However, at that time, camp detection showed that Monroe's camp was lawful neutral, and this was not disclosed to the public.
With the performance of Bredlow's blasphemous play and the publication of his evil speech, God's chosen people announced the matter to the public as another ironclad proof that Bredlow was a devil.
Who is controlling the minions of the shapeshifter who is not a demon?
The great boss of the Baldur's Gate plot, Sarevok, relied on his group of shapeshifters to cause trouble and usurped the throne of power of the Grand Duke of Baldur's Gate.
Another visitor who came with her was short and bloated. He also raised his hood, which shocked the six people in the conference room.
This visitor turned out to be a gray dwarf.
The biggest difference between gray dwarves and dwarves is that their skin is gray and dirty, and both men and women have bald heads.
However, gray dwarf males also like to grow beards like dwarves, and this gray dwarf has a messy long beard.
Monroe's arrival made several uprising leaders relax a little, but another gray dwarf visitor made them nervous again.
Gray dwarves are not good men and women. In the minds of the Faerun people, this underground creature is the second most evil villain after the dark elves and the spirit suckers.
Faerun people like to beat a race to death with a stick. But among the dark elves, there is no good person except Drizzt. But all the gray dwarves are evil people. They are evil when they are born as babies, even if they are The kindest people raised can grow into demons. Label a certain race as evil and treat this race as a non-human being, regardless of age or gender.
The six leaders of the rebellion could no longer worry about the sudden appearance of the gray dwarves. They were now labeled as being no less evil than the gray dwarves.
"Ms. Monroe, have you brought Mr. Bradlow's message?" Dame Hathaway asked eagerly: "What should we do?"
