Chapter 125 Selfless Qualities
"What you said makes sense. If she is really an angel, why would she choose me to be her holder? After all, no matter how you look at it, a paladin is more suitable to hold that heaven than a barbarian like me. shield.”
Nohill frowned, crossed his arms and rested his chin on one hand, as if he was very confused by this question, and after a while, Nohill said to Ska.
"While I still don't know why she chose me as the bearer, this level of suspicion is not enough for us to directly assume her as an enemy."
"So although we can't completely trust her, we can't completely distrust her. After all, she can indeed provide us with some help at present, and the information she said before about the Hell Mystery Box should be true. If this shield is really If she can help us get that thing, it’s okay for us to trust her for the time being.”
Scar thought for a while after hearing this, because this choice is undoubtedly risky. If what the shield says is false, then it means that it has bad intentions, but if it is true, then maybe they really are. They are going to hell, which means that no matter whether it is true or false, as long as they wear this shield, they will be in danger and trouble.
but.
"I have followed your guidance along the way to finally get here. Without your help, I would not have been able to avenge the people trapped in hell, nor would I have been able to find the real murderer. Time has proven your choice. It’s always right, so I’ll follow your decision this time too.”
Ska's words were serious, and Nohir was also a little moved after hearing this.
"It's great that you think so, but the doubts you raised cannot be ignored, and it is very simple to get the exact answer. We can go directly back to her for a showdown. If she can't make a reasonable decision, Explain, then there is no need for us to go on the road with a possible threat. "
After Nohir said this, the two discussed briefly, and then returned directly. The moment they returned to the room, Gargas, who had been waiting impatiently, immediately asked .
"I don't know what you two are thinking about. I know that my previous proposal may be a bit too much. After all, going to hell is still too dangerous for you now, so of course, I will definitely not ask you to go to hell now. , I will be patient until you are ready to go to hell. After all, I have been sealed for more than 100 years, which is not far behind now. "
After hearing these words, Nohill did not respond to his soliloquy at all, but simply stated his question.
Gargas was also stunned after hearing these questions. Apparently he didn't expect that his plan had been seen through before it was implemented. Under such an urgent situation, they could still think about the loopholes in his words.
However, he didn't have much time left. If he suddenly fell silent at this time, it would undoubtedly be an admission that there was something wrong in his heart. He must immediately come up with a perfect excuse to block the suspicion of Nohir and the two.
"...In fact, the reason why I chose you is because I can see that you are the leader of this team. Although your small group currently seems to have only two people, you are undoubtedly the dominant one."
"Furthermore, you are young, powerful, and currently seem to have considerable wisdom. Only such people are qualified to use the tools I incarnate. However, if you doubt my identity just because of this reason, then I can also abandon it. You, instead, choose your companions.”
Gargath's words vividly demonstrated the arrogance of a Blazing God. However, the time left for him to react was too short. He could only rely on his own understanding of his opponent to imitate the Blazing God as much as possible. Maybe he said that, so he actually didn't have confidence that he could hide from Nohir with this trick.
In order to increase the success rate, he even used the aggressive method against Nohir at the end. Before that, he had deliberately emphasized his power and rarity to them. Out of the grasp of the greedy heart of the world, Gargas believed that there was no such thing as People will reject this powerful force, especially when they are chosen by the power above board.
As long as Nohir succumbs to his inner greed and keeps the shield by his side, Nagagas can use it to corrupt Nohir, further guide Nohir, control Nohir, and even realize himself through Nohir's hands. ambition.
Both Nohir and Ska were silent when they heard this. Ska's silence was because the angel was so arrogant, while Nohir's silence was because of the randomness and clumsiness of this excuse.
But there was no way, Nohill really needed the help of this shield now, so he had no choice but to use his acting skills again.
"...It sounds quite willful, but as far as I know, angels seem to be very arrogant, and the strongest among the angels, the Seraph God, is even more so, so...well, I just reluctantly believe it."
"But I don't know how to use a shield, so even if you are very partial to me, I can't accept this kindness. However, my companion Scar is a very powerful high-level paladin, and he is also good and orderly. As an ally in the camp, I believe you and he will get along very happily."
Nohir stepped aside, and Ska silently took two steps forward, took off the shield from the wall, and then said to the shield.
"Hopefully we get along well in the days to come, Hidden Lord."
Noshir's words and actions were very fast. He directly gave up the control of the shield and handed it to Skar. However, Gargos was stunned. He really didn't expect that Noshir would let him go so casually. Could it be that this person was blind and couldn't see my extraordinary and powerful?
No, it's impossible. Gargos immediately denied this idea in his heart. Look at this shield. Even without these gorgeous reliefs and powerful enchantment effects, this shield itself is made of pure gold and mithril. The cost of the shield itself is so expensive that it is simply inestimable. As a result, that guy gave it up without hesitation?
Is this selflessness? Woo, as a devil who is proud of ambition and selfishness, he was directly disgusted by this word and behavior. However, Gargos's current personality is an angel. In order not to expose his identity, he must try his best to fit the personality, so even if he is disgusted in his heart, he must speak words of praise that are in line with angels against his conscience.
"Well, selflessness is another good quality. I believe you must have seen my extraordinaryness, but you are still willing to give me to a more suitable ally. This alone is something that many mortals cannot do. It seems that I really did not make a mistake."
... You are pretending to be very good. If I didn't know your background, I might have been fooled. Isn't this guy into the play?
"Well, don't say the compliments. Now please introduce your abilities. If you are really as powerful as you say, even powerful enough to raze this place to the ground, then our next action can be a little more radical."
Noshier said to the shield at this time.
Before this, he had never thought of dealing with Duke Fansampler in this operation, because even if Noshier now has the token of burning flames, he still has no power to attack, arrest or even kill a duke. These jobs are not what they can do.
If Noshiel wanted to continue to stay in Baldur's Gate, he couldn't do this, at least before finding evidence, he couldn't do it in public. However, after finding evidence, Noshiel had to at least reveal his identity to the Flame Fist, so that the evidence could be made public.
So he could do some chivalrous acts, stealing, stealing intelligence, etc., but he couldn't kill people, especially the Duke's people.
Unless all the little devils kept in the Duke of Van Samp's house suddenly showed their true forms and were seen by other people, only in this case could Noshiel defend himself infinitely.
However, with this shield, the battle that originally needed to be avoided can no longer be so cautious. Even if those demons really appeared, Noshiel could use fireballs to blast them into slag. At the same time, the huge movement would soon attract the garrisoned legions, but they would soon find that Noshiel was fighting with the devil.
At that time, I could completely throw away my caution, take out the Flame Token directly, and then order those legions to fight.
