An Ordinary Fantasy Adventure in the Continent of Faerun

Chapter 147 Rescuing 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 directly to 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, 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. The hidden lord was only curious and itchy in his 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 earn back your capital and profits!"

Kara ~ Kara

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

"Hold!!"

"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 moved forward 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 in seconds, and at the moment of prying it 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 mood of the previous moment, but in fact, they were all frightened and stunned by this sudden accident.

However, when they were stunned, Scarco did not stop. He did not pause after knocking open the iron door. He rushed to them in less than a second. Not only did he smash the table in the middle, but the shield held up by his right hand directly knocked over the cultist in front. Then his left hand swung sharply, and the Record of Light directly smashed the heads of the two cultists on the left along the trajectory.

At this time, the last cultist left had been frightened and slid off the chair and collapsed to the ground. His will to survive finally allowed him to barely regain control of his body. So he screamed and turned around immediately, trying to get up and escape from this place, but he was hit by a flying axe from Noshir before he could even get up completely.

Next came the finishing blow. Scar walked directly to the unlucky guy who was knocked unconscious by the shield and finished him off with a hammer, while Noshir also walked towards the man who was hit by the flying axe. The man didn't even need a finishing blow. His attack was so powerful that the axe almost broke through his chest. This injury was undoubtedly a sure death.

Noshir walked forward, stepped on the corpse, pulled out the axe, and then wiped the blood off the axe with the black cloak of these cultists. After nodding to Scar, the two continued to walk inside.

Noshir continued to walk inside until he opened the back door of the dormitory. After leaving the dormitory, he walked to the left and entered a tunnel. At the end of the tunnel was the dungeon where the hostages were held.

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

Noshier did not see any other hostile creatures besides the four cultists. 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 bad. There was not even a bed except for the hostages themselves, only a urinal and a haystack.

Noshier saw two middle-aged men, a middle-aged woman and a young woman. Almost all of them were injured, and some hostages were even in a coma. After seeing Noshier, almost all the awake people showed visible fear.

"Oh, I know what you are thinking. You think I am a devil who came here to torture you, but if you look closely at my skin color, you will understand that I am not a devil."

"My name is Noshir, my race is Tiefling, I am investigating a big case recently, and I just happened to find this place, and then I discovered some shameful secrets. The guards at the door have been solved by me and my companions, so don't worry."

"You are safe."
