Ordinary fantasy adventure in Faerûn

Chapter 90 Shushu, can you help me?

"Kill a bird, kill another bird, and then throw it in front of that stupid cat, and let it be kicked away by the mistress! Hahaha."

"Keep the gate, watch, watch the gate, watch."

"..."

"It's so boring! It's so boring! Have some fun, Asmodeus, please, have some fun!"

The fluctuations are different, but the same clear thoughts are transmitted into Nohir's mind. He can clearly feel the thoughts of these devils. Even if some devils are not thinking about anything at all, he can clearly sense their thoughts. specific location.

The location of these devils is very close to Nohir. Currently, I can only feel the thoughts of four devils fluctuating in the front of the mansion. They are located on the four fountains in the courtyard. However, although the positions can be clearly sensed, they can also I saw those five- to six-meter-high fountains, but Nohir couldn't see their specific forms. They were invisible?

"It's a little devil. This kind of devil is almost at the bottom of hell's strict class system. It is very small in size. It is only about the size of a 2-3 year old human child. Although its combat effectiveness is not high, they are the only destructive weapons. The poison of the scorpion-like tail needle is very fatal to ordinary people, but it can only cause temporary paralysis for melee professionals with a physical attribute of more than 14 points, and it can almost be ignored for me."

"This kind of devil has no fighting ability, but he is born with the ability to become invisible, and his intelligence is also very high. Normally, he has an intelligence of 11 points, which is a little smarter than ordinary humans."

"Having a little devil with the ability to be invisible as a sentry, I have to say, is indeed a pretty good choice."

Nohill almost instantly judged the situation he was facing with the knowledge of monsters in his mind. It was a natural fit to use the little devils for this kind of thing. After all, these little things can only do so much.

However, although these little guys are weak, the trouble is that he really has no way to bypass them now.

"Trouble, with these little guys here, even with a concealment cloak, it's difficult to get around them without alerting them, at least don't even think about the front entrance."

Nohill took another moment to make a discreet circle around the entire Duke Vansample's residence, and finally he completely determined the number of little devils outside.

"There are 16 of them in total. There are four guards on each side. They are hidden on various commanding points, such as window eaves, roofs, branches, and fountains. The sight lines in such places are too wide. It is difficult for me to pass through them secretly. Even if I take advantage of the opportunity, If you fly upstairs when it gets dark and slowly descend, you might be discovered."

"These little devils have dark vision that is higher than my low-light vision. I can't have any advantage even at night."

The situation seemed to be deadlocked from the beginning, but for Nohill, a problem of this level was not without any solution. He just thought about it for a while and came up with two feasible methods.

The first one is to use the Seven-ring Demon Complete Control Technique to control two little devils in a certain direction, and then let them use the poisonous needles on their tails to instantly attack the other two uncontrolled ones while invisible. This will definitely open the door. One of the passages allows you to lurk in it.

However, it is too wasteful to use the seven-ring spell on the little devil. There must be other more powerful devils in the Duke's Palace. It is best to save this kind of trump card first.

The second is to find a way to find out the internal structure inside. As long as you are familiar with the wiring in the manor, you can at least clearly remember the shelter inside and where you can quickly enter the stone building.

After mastering this information, he only needs to wait until the night to move, and let Ska make a little noise outside to attract the attention of those little devils, and he can take this opportunity to quickly cross the courtyard.

He had full confidence that he would never be discovered by those little devils.

Nohir took off the crown. This equipment allowed him to sense the location of the devils and spy on their thoughts. However, unless he had completely dominated one of the devils through the crown before, he could not directly connect to their vision.

It's a pity. If the function of this piece of equipment was stronger, Nohir could directly connect the vision to the eyes of those little devils, and use this method to observe the specific internal conditions.

But after all, this piece of equipment is not an artifact, and it is impossible to do this. Moreover, it can only control three devils at most. The absolute devil control spell that can be released is only three times a day. He does not intend to waste any precious spell on the little devil. body, so you still have to do this job yourself.

However, due to the restrictions of the high wall, Nohir could only see the interior of the manor through the two-meter-high bottom wall by jumping or flying. But in that case, as long as he was not a fool, anyone could see that his purpose was impure. Nohir turned around and returned to the public niches neighborhood. He randomly found a relatively remote street. After making sure that there was no one around, he directly pulled up the sewer manhole cover and jumped in.

He had previously sensed through his helmet that there were thoughts of other devils under Duke Vansample's mansion, which meant that there was a basement underneath the Duke's Mansion, which meant additional secret passages for people like them. .

Nohir wanted to see if he could find a way out underground first. If there really was an underground secret passage, then Nohir would not have to bother to explore the situation above, he could just sneak in through the secret passage.

Thanks to the efforts of House VanSample, Baldur's Gate's sewer system, at least the sewer system in the upper town, has been greatly improved.

I don’t know what kind of design concept it was based on. The sewer system of Baldur’s Gate was built very huge. If I wanted to use an analogy, it was more like the subway in his previous life. The sewage flowed through the middle like a river, and in the river There are also huge sidewalks on both sides of the river bank that are large enough for five people to walk side by side.

The moment Nohir jumped down, he also restored the manhole cover to its original position. With his wings and the clever boots under his feet, he did not make any movement. He was like a ghost in the relatively tidy sewer, heading towards He walked quickly in the specific direction he had sensed before.

However, things did not develop as he imagined. Nohir soon came to the end of the road. The neatly laid stone bricks disappeared directly in front of him, and even the sewage pipes turned to the left in front of him. , what appeared in front of him was a large complete rock formation.

"What's going on? This should be the direction that Wang Guan sensed, but what's going on with this rock formation?"

"There is actually a large piece of bedrock underneath the Duke's mansion? Are you kidding me? Instead of flushing their shit into the sewer, do they have to hire porters to pick it out?"

Nohir didn't believe it and went up to check. In order to prevent it from being a real illusion, he took off his gloves and touched the rock formation with his own hands. However, no matter how much he didn't believe it, the real touch told Nohir that he was in front of a large rock.

"What a ghost. It stands to reason that the crown's induction cannot be wrong. There should be at least a space in front of me. Unless I use magic, who can be in a whole piece of rock..."

"magic?"

Nohir once again put on the Crown of Control and felt it carefully. With the super perception ability brought by this legendary equipment, he once again felt that there were indeed several silent devils behind the rock. This time, he felt it more clearly. The straight-line distance between these devils and Nohir is probably no more than 50 meters.

"Yes, it is definitely magic. It seems that the space outside the basement was completely sealed with stone wall magic. The reason why Duke Vansample did this is probably to prevent those Baal assassins from suddenly turning their backs and raiding directly from the sewers to assassinate her. .”

Nohir looked to the left, and saw that the sewage next to him was redirected in that direction. The originally spacious sidewalk also disappeared directly around the corner, and all he could see was the foul-smelling water.

"Maybe there will be some drain valves reserved by Duke Vansample under the water, but if you really want to flow through the sewage, the stench of the sewage alone will expose you. This stone wall is too thick. It’s impossible to break it.”

Nohir scratched his head.

"It seems that the method of entering directly through the secret passage has failed. We still have to go up. As for investigating the internal environment, we still have to rely on..."

"Squeak."

A plump rat suddenly crawled out of the sewage ditch. If no one else was around, he shook his body and shook the sewage away. He had an unknown thing in his mouth. It was probably food, but it was already rotten. It's out of shape.

The mouse raised its head and glanced at Nohir, then turned around and ran quickly towards the distance with the unknown object in its mouth.

"Don't run away, Shushu, come here and help me!"
