Ordinary fantasy adventure in Faerûn

Chapter 117 The Raid Begins

Nohir walked to the door of the room. He first checked the specific structure of the door. Because he had not found the room key on the hedgehog demon in the ritual room before, he could only try to use his own The claws gently pried it open.

However, at this moment, Nohir was surprised to find that there was no keyhole on the outside of this iron door. This would happen. Otherwise, this door would be a magic door like the door in the previous ceremony room. Otherwise, the door would be a magic door. The main structure of the machine is simply not a lock type, but a bolt type.

Nohill quickly determined that this door was definitely not a magic door. The magic light did not flash on it, which meant that the door should be a bolt-type structure.

The biggest feature of this bolt-type structure is that the authority to open the door lies entirely inside the door, not outside. After all, the chain holes are gone, and it cannot be opened by normal means from the outside.

"Interesting, this structure can perfectly prevent other thieves, thieves and even assassins. These uninvited guests can only use magic to open this door, but whether it is knocking or other spells, when opening this door It will definitely be discovered by the creatures living inside, and I won't be able to pry it open with my claws like before. This special bolt door is probably specially designed to prevent this situation."

Nohill couldn't help but have this thought in his mind. This specially designed door seems to force those uninvited guests to use magic to open it, because this special iron door only protects against the outside, and it only protects against physical lock picks. , and the defense against magical means can be said to be a mess.

"This kind of design can perfectly prevent thieves and thieves, but it cannot prevent me. In fact, it can hardly prevent any spell casters. But which spell caster would do such a thing?"

Naturally, he is a thief who has mastered one or two small spells. Although Nohir is not a thief, he does know one or two small spells.

Regardless of whether there are bolts or bolts behind the door, Nohir can open them instantly by performing thaumaturgy. After all, this door is not a magic door, but a simple moving object. For small magic like thaumaturgy, It's not difficult.

However, the movement caused by using magic to open the door will definitely be discovered by the creatures in the house within an instant, but this is not important, because Nohill has come up with a very simple and crude plan, which is to instantly open the door lock through thaumaturgy. , then directly kicked the door open, and then immediately tried to use the control ability of the Dominion Crown to forcibly control Tavis, so that he was directly controlled by force without even a moment of reaction!

As long as the attack moves fast enough and he is hit by a spell or attack the moment he hears the sound, it doesn't matter whether he is discovered or not. And Nohill is also very confident in the effectiveness of the seventh-ring spell. If Tavi Si Zhen has been converted into an Anzu Demon, so this spell has a very high possibility of controlling him the moment it hits.

Because as far as Nohill knows, although Anzu Demon can be regarded as a high-level devil in the command class, the average perception ability of this devil type is not high, and can even be said to be very low, with an average of only 12 points. Although as high-level devils, they have relatively strong spell resistance, their perception is too low, so even if the monster illustration shows that the creature level of Anzu Demon is about 16-18, Nohir still Have control over him.

And although this plan is simple, it can achieve the main goal quickly and perfectly. Even if the control fails, there is still a backup plan. At this time, Ska can take advantage of the stiff period of Tavis's immunity spell and immediately use the Lost Step. Move behind him, and then use the Holy Slash to blast his dog's head.

Well, the plan is simple and crude, but the benefits are obvious. Both endings are acceptable to Nohir. The most important thing is that the success rate is not low, because his natural wings and dress will definitely make him kick in the door. Tavis hesitated, and this mere moment of hesitation could lead to his death.

But if you want to do this, you need to at least make sure that Tavis is hiding behind this door. Only then can you continue to act. The reason why Nohill has this worry is not unreasonable. After all, who knows who he is? Are there any partitions in this room?

If this room is also divided into a living room and a bedroom, then this reckless action has no other meaning besides exposing himself and making Tavis vigilant.

So after he came to the door, he carefully put his ear against the iron door and listened to the movement inside. If Tavis was really inside, he would definitely hear some noise.

……

"...Yes, of course I will keep my promise. Everyone in the world knows that I am trustworthy, so as long as you can do what you promised, then my Lord Zariel will definitely let you go free."

"..."

"Well...that's not a good thing to say. Dear lord, you should be grateful for my lord's generosity. Otherwise, just based on your words just now, you should be thrown into the River Styx and completely disappear from this world."

"..."

"What? No, no, no, how could I threaten you? After all, we are now in a cooperative relationship, and I have always been kind and generous to my allies."

"..."

Nohir shrank back when he heard this.

Tavis was indeed across the way, and it sounded like he was talking to something, but Nohir didn't hear any voice other than him. "Who is he talking to? No, it doesn't matter. Although the voices and conversations heard are not complete, we can also know that the person talking to him is definitely not Zariel or other powerful people."

"Judging from Tavis's tone, the unknown creature he was talking to was on a completely weak side. He was more of a coerced person than an ally. If that's the case, there's nothing to hesitate about."

Nohir took off the double ax from his waist, then put both axes in his right hand. He stretched out his left hand to make a gesture and prepared to cast a spell. When Scar saw this, he directly put aside his cloak, and the activation rope was wrapped around his left arm like a snake. while holding the holy symbol symbolizing his oath in the palm of his left hand, and the war hammer in his right hand.

-

The flickering candlelight in the iron candlestick illuminated the room warmed by the crackling iron claw-foot stove. Opposite the crackling stove was a simple set of large bed and table and chairs. Tavis Craig, the former Al The Lord of Toril, the High Watcher, and the once loyal Guard of Torm now sat in that chair.

Judging from his appearance, he is an elderly man in his 70s, wearing simple clothes and robes. He is fat and short. He is sitting on a chair with his eyes squinting under the light of the fire, and he seems to be very comfortable.

If you just look at the appearance, Tavis looks very peaceful, kind, and has a kindliness that belongs to the elderly, but this is just an illusion. If you look carefully, you can see behind him, his slender figure in the fire. The twisted and eerie shadows illuminated by the light were completely beyond the scope of human beings.

The shadow of a devil.

The same fat and short figure, but with short wings on its back and two weird arms growing up on its shoulders.

The unique and deformed arm is very easy to identify. The shoulders are slender, the arms are thick, and the palms can be called wide. With such twisted and unique features, only the shadow of the Anzu Demon meets this condition, but the amazing thing is that the current Tavi Si is still a human being, at least he appears to be one.

And Tavis at this time.

"I believe that our cooperation will satisfy both of us, but I don't understand why you refuse to accept my lord's help? We are both devils, and they are powerful devils. My lord Zariel should be very happy to accept you. Allegiance is right."

"Allegiance? Haha, no! You stupid maggot, your shallow knowledge just makes me laugh. Maybe you got power from your master, but what does that little power mean to me? Zariel What does it matter?"

"The Hidden Lord is not loyal to anyone! Especially the so-called Zariel. His qualifications are too young, young and stubborn. This kind of guy will not live long in the Nine Hells. If you are smart enough, then from now on From now on, you should abandon Him and serve me wholeheartedly."

"...I still hope you can carefully consider your words, Hidden Lord. Now I have begun to doubt whether the cooperation between us is correct. Perhaps rather than cooperating, dedicating you to my lord Zariel would be more in line with my lord. of my mind.”

"Hahaha, then give it a try and send me to hell! I don't know what happened to the Nine Hells during the years when I was sealed. Has Asmodeus lost his mind again and actually let me do this? A weak person replaces the original Archduke Baal, but no matter what the truth is, that kind of junior cannot compare with me."

"You'd better remember this and recognize your position. If you can't show respect to me and the Hidden Lord in the following conversation, then you can't hope to get my help!"

Tavis was silent for a while after hearing this, and then said to the shield in front of him in a less aggressive tone.

"...Yes, Hidden Lord, but you must also remember one thing, that is, no matter how brilliant you were in the past, you are still restricted by this small shield. If it weren't for the help of us maggots, you would You must still be buried in that dark tomb. I don’t know how many more years it will take before you can see the light of day again. And as soon as we dug you out, we held a grand blood sacrifice for you to wake you up from your slumber. .”

"So thank me, Hidden Lord. For the sake of both of us, why don't we sign a contract that is good for everyone from now on, and lay the foundation for our good cooperation in the future from now on."

"After all, only in this way can both of us feel at ease and work together toward a common goal, right?"

"Peace of mind? I can't imagine how I can feel peace of mind when I'm with a maggot like you! You, a fat fool, dare to be so complacent, arrogant and stupid in front of me after only gaining such a small amount of power. Even if you die suddenly in front of me in the next moment, I won’t be concerned at all..."
