Ordinary fantasy adventure in Faerûn

Chapter 148 Rescue the Hostages

After delivering these orders through his helmet, Nohill spoke directly to Scar.

"The operation there went very smoothly. Not only did they clear the road, I also asked Tavis to use his natural spellcasting ability to control two cultists to work as coolies. We don't need to stay here to move things, we can just go and rescue people. .”

Nohir explained to Ska what had just happened, but Ska asked after being silent for a while.

"...I have never heard of any control spell that can be so powerful. Nohill, are you sure this helmet can support you to complete such an operation?"

After hearing Scar's question, Nohir thought about it, and then explained to Scar.

"Well, I guess you mean that you are worried that this control chain, which is like a nesting doll, will get out of control? Don't worry, it won't. Although I do not have the ability to control the cultists controlled by Tavis, I But I can completely control Tavis. Now I am like a feudal monarch. As long as I can control my own vassals, I can rule the entire kingdom safely."

"...an interesting metaphor, but even this is outrageous. How effective is the control spell attached to your helmet that can achieve this level?"

Although Nohill's explanation dispelled Ska's worries to a certain extent, the overly powerful effect of this equipment still made Ska start to have doubts about Nohill's equipment.

Although he didn't know the specific function of this helmet before, but judging from the current effect, it was a bit too strong. Such a powerful piece of equipment was not in line with the level of items that the devil could hold.

But when faced with Ska's questions, Nohir couldn't tell the truth, especially when there was a demigod devil next to him, so he could only speak vaguely.

"Hmm, yeah, I guess the actual effect is at least seven levels, but it seems that because this spell is specifically targeted at evil spirits, I guess the actual effectiveness has reached the effect of ordinary eight-level control spells, that's why it seems so outrageous, well, in short, it's completely There’s no need to worry about him losing control, okay, okay, let’s go, don’t delay, we still have hostages to rescue.”

Nohill directly pushed Ska out of the room to interrupt his question. Although Ska saw Nohill's concealment, he did not ask more questions out of trust, only the hidden lord was itching in his curious heart.

-

The two of them walked along the tunnel, but just when they were about to turn towards the dormitory, they changed directions and continued walking for a while before arriving at the room where the last bearded demon was.

Nohir relied on the method he used to deal with Qislin before to pry open the door lock, while Ska directly picked up the war hammer, and the divine power suddenly emerged, quietly assassinating the last bearded demon in the dungeon.

Well, use the Record of Light to hammer him into ashes with a direct blow, quickly and silently, without leaving any corpses, it is really a perfect assassination.

After dealing with the devil, they immediately turned to the accommodation of the group of cultists. Fortunately for them, they didn't meet anyone along the way and arrived here smoothly.

Nohir, who was standing at the door of the dormitory, put his sharp ears to the door. As he approached, he heard some movement inside. Now he wanted to confirm how many people were inside?

"...Two silver coins, you two are the only ones left now, dice or stop?"

"Dice! This time there is a lot of space, you must roll the die! You must make back your capital with profits!"

Kara ~ Kara

"3, 5, 6, tsk tsk, you're so unlucky. Just past 21 o'clock, you exploded and you're out." "Fuck!!"

"Haha! Stop complaining and get the money! I'm so lucky today..."

Nohir withdrew his ears when he heard this. It sounded like the cultists inside were playing a game called Baldur's Bone, which is a dice gambling game popular in major taverns in Baldur's Gate. When Blushing Mermaid stayed at the hotel, the gamblers inside often played this game, so Nohir knew the rules of the game.

If you want to play this game, you must have at least one person as the dealer, and in addition to the dealer, there must be at least three people to make up the main number of people in a game, which means that there are at least four people in it, and no more than six people at most. You can count the number of people to fight, and they are still unwary.

After confirming this, Nohill immediately made a gesture to Scar to indicate that he could attack by force. However, after making the gesture, Nohill approached again and tried to cover up the sound of picking the lock with the noise inside. .

This time Nohir did not use his claws, but a small iron bar he picked up on the road. With this thing, it was not difficult for him to pry open such an ordinary lock. It only took less than five minutes. The time lock was pried open within seconds, and at the moment when it was pried open, he did not rush in directly, but immediately took a few steps back to the left.

Because behind Nohill, Ska was ready to go. He held the Shield of the Hidden Lord tightly with his right hand, and also held the Record of Light with his left hand and stepped back enough distance. At this time, he would focus on He lowered it to the lowest position, ready to charge at any time, and just after Nohir pried open the lock and left the charging route, he directly supported the shield and slammed open the iron door!

At this time, on a small round table in the center of the room, the four cultists who were gambling all turned their heads subconsciously after hearing the sound. When they saw a knight charging towards them with all his strength, the expressions on their faces The golden masks blocked their stunned expressions, and their body postures still maintained the carnival atmosphere of the previous moment, but in fact, they were all frightened and stunned by this sudden accident.

However, when they were stunned, Ska didn't stop. He didn't pause after breaking open the iron door. He rushed directly in front of them without even a second, not only crashing the table in the middle, but also using his right hand. The raised shield directly knocked over the cultist at the front, and followed with a large swing with his left hand. The Record of Light directly followed the trajectory and smashed the heads of the two cultists on the left. .

At this time, the last remaining cultist was so frightened that he slipped off his chair and collapsed to the ground. However, his own will to survive finally allowed him to barely regain control of his body, so he screamed strangely and then He immediately turned around and wanted to get up and escape from this place, but before he could fully get up, he received a flying ax from Nohir in the back.

Next came the last-ditch session. Ska walked directly towards the unlucky guy who was knocked unconscious by the shield and killed him with one blow. Nohir also walked towards the person who was hit by the flying axe. That person didn't even need a last-ditch attack. , his attack was so powerful that the ax almost burst out of his chest. This kind of injury was undoubtedly fatal.

Nohir stepped forward, stepped on the corpse, pulled out the ax, and then wiped the blood on the ax with the black cloak of the cultist. After nodding to Scar, the two continued walking inside.

Nohir continued walking inside until he opened the back door of the dormitory. After exiting the dormitory, he walked left and entered a tunnel. At the end of the tunnel was the dungeon where the hostages were held.

Nohir first raised his hand to signal Scar not to move forward for the time being, and to stay where he was and guard the rear, while he raised his two axes and slowly moved forward until he entered the archway of the dungeon.

Nohill did not see any other hostile creatures except the four cultists. At this time, there were only a few dirty and pitiful hostages in front of him. These people were separated by iron fences on both sides, and the environment was very... No, there wasn't even a bed except for the hostage himself, just a urinal and a haystack.

Nohir saw two middle-aged men, a middle-aged woman and a young woman. Almost all of them were injured, and some hostages even fell into a coma. The people who were awake were almost unconscious after seeing Nohir. All showed visible fear.

"Oh, I know what you are thinking. You think I am a devil, specially coming to torture you, but as long as you take a closer look at my skin color, you will understand that I am not a devil."

"My name is Nohir, and my race is Tiefling. I was investigating a big case recently, and I happened to find this place, and then discovered some shady secrets. At this time, the guard at the door had been solved by me and my companions. So don’t worry.”

"You are safe."
