Ordinary fantasy adventure in Faerûn

Chapter 168 Baldur’s Gate also takes action

"That is the hell where the bloody battle of the abyss is taking place! Now it can be said to be the most dangerous place in the entire multiverse. We have to consider this possibility. If Master Jaheira really does this, just to save a city that has nothing to do with her. city, then we must find ways to help her!"

"Calm down, Bion, alas..."

Advisor Florrick sighed helplessly.

"Although I don't want to say it, I have to admit that what you said makes sense. We must help. This is not only for Eltoril, but also for Baldur's Gate and our Grand Duke."

Advisor Florrick looked at the others at this moment, and then said slowly.

"Actually, I have a way to contact Ms. Jahira, but if we still don't come up with a feasible way to save the Duke or the entire city after this meeting, then even if we contact Ms. Don’t do her any favors.”

After hearing what Advisor Florrick said, everyone was relieved at first. After all, everything would be easy if they could get in touch, and they immediately fell into discussing the action plan. However, at this moment Liara said suddenly.

"How? Consultant Florrick, haven't you already said it before... Oh, okay, I understand, it seems that I still need to explain it in detail."

Liara thought that the consultant had only mentioned it briefly before, without explaining it in detail, so Liara put her hand towards Nohir and spoke slowly.

"Although Duke Vansample's fall is heartbreaking, Nohir discovered her betrayal in advance before everything became irreversible and stopped the situation from sliding into the irreversible abyss. So this means that this is A great victory that is undoubtedly worthy of praise."

"As long as this victory is spread in the correct form, Baldur's Gate will definitely be stabilized for a certain period of time. People will be temporarily liberated from the fear of those cultists, and the social order will also be restored for a period of time. Back to normal."

After everyone heard this, they immediately thought about whether this method was feasible. It had to be said that if they only considered rescuing the Grand Duke, this method should have the highest chance of success.

"Your idea is correct, Ms. Liara, thank you for your detailed explanation, but what I want to say is that you still do not understand the difficulty of this plan. You have ignored a huge problem, that is, we are actually There is simply no ability to implement this plan.”

"Consultant Florrick, don't tell me that as an archmage, you don't have the ability to send others to hell?"

"There may be a lot of soldiers in Baldur's Gate, but there is no point in taking ordinary soldiers to hell. Just like Kaon said, the hell where the bloody battle of the abyss is taking place is the most dangerous place in the entire multiverse. Those who Ordinary soldiers are taken to hell to die.”

"Although this period will not be too long, the so-called stability is just false stability, and the real problem is still unresolved, but we can still take advantage of this period to allocate a certain number of people from the army and take them to hell to help Lady Jaheira, rescue our Grand Duke at the same time.”

"Of course I can do it. The difficulty of this problem is not that I can't take people to hell or how to find the Grand Duke after arriving in hell. These are not troubles for me. The only difficulty for us is that we don't have enough good hands. to complete this mission.”

"This kind of unnecessary sacrifice is completely meaningless. It is better to let them stay in Baldur's Gate to maintain the stability of the city. If they want to be effective, they must be strong and determined warriors to accompany me."

"As long as we are fast enough, we may not even need two days, and we can bring the Grand Duke back directly."

Consultant Florrick also said at this time.

Florrick shook his head and said.

Palestine also frowned and thought for a while before speaking in agreement.

"Advisor Florrick is right. There are indeed many good soldiers among my soldiers, but going to hell? To be honest, this is no longer a test of force, but more importantly, faith."

But Liara retorted at this time. "There are more than 4000 professional soldiers in Baldur's Gate's Flame Fist Legion. Couldn't there be more than a dozen strong-willed, powerful and willing to contribute to Baldur's Gate among these 4000 people? "

Regarding these words, Palestine just looked at Liara, shook her head, and then explained.

"Baldur's Gate does have more than 4000 professional soldiers at present, but among these soldiers, there are probably less than 1000 who can be directly under my jurisdiction, and most of them are guarding Livington, the outer city and Feilongguan Bridge."

"Not only do they serve as the first line of defense against outsiders, but the location where they are stationed is also where those cult lunatics are most rampant. It is impossible for me to extract the strongest among them at this time and then kill them. Sent to another devil pit."

"Ms. Liara, you have just come to Baldur's Gate, so you are not aware of the tragic murders that occurred in the outer city. If these elite soldiers are really transferred away by me, then this will not only be a disservice to the lives of these masters. To be responsible is to be irresponsible for the lives of the citizens of the neighborhood they guard and the lives of their original team members."

Liara: "...There are more than 3000 soldiers."

"Let me answer your question, Ms. Liara."

Beorn suddenly picked up the conversation at this moment, and then explained to Liara in detail.

"Although there are currently more than 3000 soldiers left in Baldur's Gate, they are all scattered throughout the lower city, and almost all of them have their own responsibilities. However, we have no right to mobilize them at all now. The only way to legally mobilize them is to The only one who can mobilize them is our Grand Duke, Urd Ravengard."

"But now that the Grand Duke is missing, these soldiers can only be temporarily managed by me. Of course, it is said to be management, but at most I can only let them maintain their original duties. I am completely unable to command them."

"Among these 3000 soldiers, 1000 soldiers are constantly patrolling within their respective law enforcement areas, centered on small strongholds in various parts of the lower city. This is where I am most involved and energetic. I have to check these every day. The information reported by the soldiers can ensure that these soldiers will not slip up and miss various events that occur in the city."

"1000 soldiers are stationed at the first city wall in the lower city, in the barracks near the Petrified Lizard Gate. To be honest, the only thing I can do now is to confine them to the barracks. In fact, this is the only order they can accept. These soldiers are absolutely loyal to the Grand Duke of Ravengard, and it would be extremely difficult to get them to do anything else during the Grand Duke's absence."

"In addition, there are nearly 1000 soldiers stationed in the base camp of the Flame Fist Legion, Bodran Sea Tower. Their main responsibility is to prevent external forces from invading Baldur's Gate from the sea, and to guard against dangerous threats with magical powers. Prisoners, because my original office is there, so I am very familiar with these soldiers, and it is easiest to manage them, but their responsibilities are destined to never be easily transferred."

Liara's eyes twitched when she heard this, and then moved her gaze to Havanak, and Havanak also said at this time.

"If you want to say that there are still monitors that can be mobilized, then you have made the wrong calculation. Although I nominally have full management authority over the Monitor Legion, the essence of the Monitor Legion is collectively funded by Shangcheng District Zonggui, and is dedicated to A group of soldiers who defend those nobles."

"Even most of its members are collateral branches of certain nobles. My influence on them is limited. Unless something major happens that threatens the entire Baldur's Gate, the scope of activities of all monitors is strictly planned. Even I can't disobey it once we get to the upper city."

Liara slammed her fist on the table angrily. She didn't expect that Baldur's Gate would be in this situation now. If she had known this, she would have brought more with her when she came to Baldur's Gate from Belulian Castle. A few good guys...

No, Belulian Castle is far away in Chult, and Chult is a place that is notoriously dangerous. If you bring those experts here, the safety of Belulian Castle itself cannot be guaranteed.

The situation seemed to be at a stalemate, and while everyone else was thinking, and even considering whether to hire other adventurer groups currently present at Baldur's Gate to enter hell to search for the Duke's whereabouts, Nohir was slowly He walked to the ceremony table and said to them.

"Everyone, why do you look so sad, but still refuse to think about me and my companions?"
