The only thing they can do now is to look for clues near Baldur's Gate.

Baldur's Gate at this moment can be called "the stars are shining brightly".

Not only are there the ambitious Sarevok who wants to inherit his father's blood throne, but also the protagonists in the adventure story of the Sons of Baal - Aberdare and Imoen, and the electorate of Bane - Zhentil Castle led by Forzor Chambery.

Army.

There are also the forces under Zuo Si, the Harper Alliance that has not yet completely evacuated, the Dragon Cult that is lurking nearby and waiting for opportunities, the Zhentarim that provides intelligence support for the Zhentil Keep army, and some of the more extreme Shadow Druids,

The mind flayer lurkers and the monsters controlled by them, the Northland Lords Alliance, led by Waterdeep, is considering whether to send reinforcements.

If Veshalon and his followers are also involved, then Sazastan, the chief necromancer of the red robed mage, will definitely not stand idly by.

Oh, by the way,

We also have to add the trade alliance led by the Goddess of Wealth’s Gold Holding Church.

As for the Baldur's Gate officials who are still kept in the dark and the Shadow Thieves who are deeply involved in the civil war, they are not even qualified to join this game.

Of course, the chaotic situation outside has nothing to do with Sancho.

Due to his identity as the son of Baal, he has been on the run. From the beginning to the end, he did not know that he was being hunted by Velshalon. He thought that the group of red-robed mages were also here for the blood of the murder god in his body.<

/p>

As he became Zuo Si's apprentice, the boy spent his days in constant learning and magic experiments. For the first time, he had an unprecedented sense of security, and could even occasionally talk to his peers.

After all, there are little werewolves, succubus lolita, orphans sent by the Church of the God of Suffering to learn professional knowledge and skills in the tower, as well as various magic bats, devils and some magical creatures that wander around doing odd jobs.

.

Although Zuo Si, a mentor, is often invisible, Sancho still likes this kind of life very much.

Especially since he doesn't have to worry all day long about the pursuers who may appear at any time, he can eat and sleep with peace of mind every day, which makes him feel that it is not bad to maintain the status quo.

But unfortunately, this kind of beautiful life can only last for half a year at most. Every son of Baal cannot escape his fate and can only face it bravely.

"Alas——"

Staring at the thick pile of books in front of him, the boy couldn't help but sigh slightly, grabbed some pastries and snacks placed on the table and stuffed some into his mouth. While eating, he whispered in a low voice: "Morning

Knowing that there are so many things to learn to be a mage, I might as well become a warrior or a thief."

"What, do you regret it?"

Atona quietly emerged from behind a bookshelf in the library, with a playful smile on her delicate and cute face.

As a succubus, she naturally likes to pry into other people's hearts and minds, and then find weaknesses and exploit them to achieve her own goals.

"No, I don't regret it, I just found that becoming a mage is not as easy as I thought."

Sancho shrugged his shoulders, obviously used to the mysterious appearance of this girl who looked slightly older than him.

"My master has said that there is no shortcut to the pursuit of power and truth. If you discover a method that can quickly improve your power, then it must hide unknown hidden dangers and traps." Succubus Loli said seriously.

Warning.

Because she discovered that among the thick pile of books, there was one that was clearly related to sacrifice.

You must know that in this world full of magic and supernatural power, in addition to gods, there are many beings who can give mortals power.

The most famous among them are the devils and devils in the lower planes.

Sometimes, as long as a mortal does something evil to please the other person, there is a certain probability that he will receive a reward.

Especially the demons from the chaotic camp, they do things as they please and don't follow routines.

This is why there are far more devil worshipers than devil worshipers in the material world.

In addition, there are some beast spirits and monster spirits that will also accept sacrifices of killing and blood.

Since Atona was originally a succubus, and she was also a believer of Zuo Si, the lord of the hell realm, and could even be said to be a chosen one, she knew this aspect very well.

But the boy rolled his eyes angrily and responded: "I'm not one of those fools. I have received education in this area and know what's going on. Don't worry, I didn't read this book to gain power, but to gain power.

I want to understand the symbolic meaning behind it."

"Because you were sacrificed by those crazy believers and other Sons of Baal?" Atona asked with interest.

"That's right! Also, can you stop staring at me all day long? It makes me feel like I might make a big mistake at any time."

There was a hint of impatience in Sancho's tone.

There is no doubt that he is different from many teenagers who are confused by the beautiful appearance of succubus lolita.

He is too young

It's not yet time for me to become interested in the opposite sex, so my speech and attitude are quite tough, quite like Zuo Si's style back then.

Atona was not angry, but said in a smiling tone: "Do you think I am willing to do this?

Isn’t it because your identity as the son of Baal brings many uncertain risks?

You don’t know yet?

In the past few days, people have suddenly appeared in Baldur's Gate area asking for news about you.

I suspect that you must be involved in some trouble that you don't even know about."

"What? Someone is asking about my whereabouts!"

Sancho, who was indifferent one second, showed an extremely nervous expression the next second.

"Hmph! Why, are you scared now?"

There was disdain in Atona's eyes.

"Stop playing riddles! Tell me who they are? And why are they chasing me? No! I have to find a mentor!"

Sancho suddenly stood up from his chair, intending to leave the library and go straight to the exclusive room of the tower master on the upper floor.

But before he could take a few steps, the succubus Loli teased in a joking tone: "Save it! The master learned the news immediately and is working on it now. By the time you react, I'm afraid...

The other party has already come to our door."

"Ah? The instructor already knows!"

The boy stopped abruptly, with an expression of shock and disbelief on his face.

"Nonsense! Remember, you are the master's only disciple at the moment. Don't be irritable all the time because you are afraid of this or that. There are not many guys in this world who dare to risk provoking the master and attack you."

After saying these words, Atona stood up and walked to Sancho's side, raised her slender little hand and knocked him hard on the head, then hummed and skipped to the end of the corridor outside, only to

The latter was left screaming and collapsed on the ground.

……

At the same time, in a manor outside Baldur's Gate in the north, Zuo Si was meeting with a very important guest, namely Sazastan, the leader of the Necron faction organized by the red-robed mage Ser.

You don't need to ask to know that this powerful legendary lich came after Velsharon and his men.

As mortal enemies who were once evenly matched, no one understands the dangers of Velsharun better than Sazastan.

So even after the latter was exiled, he kept sending people to keep an eye on him.

After discovering that Velsharon's followers began to appear in droves on the west coast of Faerûn, Sazastan immediately chose to take action.

However, since he had reached an agreement with Zuo Si before, he did not choose to investigate secretly. Instead, he took the initiative to reveal his identity and issued an invitation to meet. This was the scene that finally unfolded.

In fact, to a certain extent, Sazastan, who is rational, calm, smart, has unparalleled patience and is good at playing tricks, has many similarities with Zuo Si in terms of personality.

In addition, both of them were not shy about using undead on a large scale, so after a simple greeting and conversation, the atmosphere quickly became harmonious.

After all, the west coast empire that Zuo Si is about to establish is in the southwest of the Faerun continent, while Ser, controlled by the red-robed mages, is in the northeast corner of the Faerun continent.

According to the principle of distant friendship and close attack, the two parties do not have many substantive conflicts of interest at all, so they are naturally suitable to become allies.

The other two countries are basically determined to be based on arcane magic, and they will definitely have many common languages.

If Aznar Sruel hadn't brought people to Luskan to cause trouble and made the relationship very tense, Sazastan would have sent people to try to deal with this planeswalker and divine chosen one who has special powers in front of him.

Make contact and do some collaboration.

But it seems it’s not too late.

Thinking of this, he slightly pursed his lips with a smile, and said in as sincere a tone as possible: "Dear Soth, I think you should know why I came here, right?"

"For those red-robed mages who are inquiring about the whereabouts of a boy?" Zuo Si asked with a half-smile.

"No, no, no, I want to correct you. Most of them have been expelled from the organization and are no longer part of the red robe mage." Sazastan quickly explained.

"But I don't see any difference between them and ordinary red-robed mages.

Okay, stop beating around the bush and just tell me what happened.

I don’t think a busy person like you would have nothing to do, traveling thousands of miles from the east to the west of the mainland."

Zuo Si was obviously tired of this endless probing, and took the initiative to show off his cards.

Based on the information given by the Zhentarim Dark Intelligence Network and his lich, he had roughly guessed the reason, and just wanted to confirm it again.

Sazastan was silent for a moment, then slowly asked: "Do you know Velsalun?"
