An Ordinary Fantasy Adventure in the Continent of Faerun

$ Chapter 126 Extremely Effective Perception of Demons

"Well, I'm just a shield, and you're the boss. What can I say when the boss gives orders?"

Gargus laughed at himself, and then told Noshir about some of his abilities, but in order not to reveal his flaws, he only told him about the enchantment of fire, and even this enchantment he concealed.

Gargus told exactly the effects of those fire spells and the number of times they can be used within a certain period of time, but he extended the cooling time several times, so that each use of a spell would take a lot of time to recover, and he didn't even mention the fallen aura.

However, despite such concealment, these powerful attack spells can still make him a legendary equipment. At least Scar was stunned when he heard it. It was the first time he saw such powerful equipment. Before that, he had never even heard of the existence of such equipment.

But Noshir would not be amazed by this little ability. The equipment created by his panel was the real powerful equipment, and Noshir, who knew Gargus's background, naturally understood what he was thinking.

But now is not the time to expose him. Although Noshiel was not surprised at all, it was necessary to show a certain degree of surprise at this time.

"But with these spells, you can be called legendary equipment. I have to say that you are not bragging. This shield is really strong and can provide us with a lot of help."

Noshiel praised, but Gargos immediately began to be sarcastic and asked back.

"Why, do you regret it now?"

Yes, he was disgusting Noshiel and trying to create a rift between him and Scar through this sentence. This can be said to be the devil's instinctive reaction, but this time he really made a wrong calculation, Noshiel immediately retorted.

"In fact, no, what I want to say is that being able to release eight-ring spells is indeed very strong, but your cooling time is too long, and the effect is too single. As a shield, you actually have no means to enhance defense except the fire wall spell?"

"I have to say that in terms of equipment design, you are really too unbalanced."

Gargos did not feel angry after hearing this, but was a little surprised.

His reaction was a bit too fast. He was just praising me, but the moment I said something that was not conducive to their unity, he immediately changed his attitude and began to criticize me.

"Do you know what this shield is made of? This is fine gold and mithril. Its own defense is already impeccable."

"And you said that it seems that I deliberately turned into a shield."

After saying this, Gargos stopped talking and fell silent. Obviously, he realized that Noshiel was not easy to deal with. There was no point in continuing to talk, but it would increase the risk of being exposed. As for the other paladin, there was even less to say. He didn't even want to try.

In fact, in silence, he had been thinking about how to leave Noshiel and his group, but after thinking about it, he suddenly found that he could only rely on them now. After all, he was just a shield now and had no ability to act alone. If he wanted to leave this dangerous place, he could only rely on Noshiel and his group.

Yes, it was dangerous. He couldn't let himself stay in this demon outpost in the mortal world. Because of his past mistakes, he could not return to the sight of other high-level demons before breaking the seal, otherwise he would be finished.

Although Gargos had responded very strongly to Tavis's questioning before, no one knew how much he was afraid of returning to the sight of those big demons in hell while being sealed.

If he continued to stay here, if Tavis really offered himself to Zariel, to the Duke-level Zariel, then he, as a shield, would have no power to fight back. Returning to the sight of the Duke's level of demons, he would only become a fat meal. The originally restrained shield would become his tortoise shell to protect him.

But this tortoise shell would never last too long in the hands of those big demons of that level. He couldn't curl up in the shield and wait for the judgment of fate. There was no possibility of escaping in front of the Duke. Once the seal of the shield was broken, he would immediately become the food for the evolution of other big demons.

So now he must do his best to help Noshir, and at the same time desperately want to gain their trust, all of this is to leave here as soon as possible. In order to increase the chance of successfully leaving here, he even told them all his offensive means except for the corrupted aura, and only concealed some parts that would not affect the upcoming battle.

For a devil, this is actually incredible, otherwise according to his original character, he would never be so helpful.

Gargos's thoughts flashed quickly, and then he continued to plan in his mind how to get away from these two people who were not easy to deal with after leaving here, but what he never expected was that everything he thought was clearly sensed by Noshir.

Yes, when Noshir realized that there was a deep hell demon sealed in the shield, he had silently turned the ability of the Crown of Domination to sense evil demons to the maximum.

Although there is a certain risk of being discovered by using this trick to detect the thoughts of a demigod devil, it is even more risky to leave him around without any precautions. What's more, even if he is discovered, what can he do? What can he do with just a shield? The worst result is that Noshiel can't use this shield at all, but even if he sells it to the temple, Noshiel will not lose anything.

And the reason why Noshiel dared to do this is because he was quite sure. The panel has clearly listed the specific attributes of Gargos, and his perception attribute of only 18 points is one of the reasons why Noshiel dared to try.

In a short distance, Noshiel's perception attribute of 22 points is two levels higher than Gargos. Such a high perception attribute is the most basic guarantee, and the unique enchantment of the Domination Crown specifically used to perceive the thoughts of evil demons is a more solid foundation.

The combination of the two makes Noshiel 80% sure that he can perceive Gargos' thoughts without being discovered by him.

However, Gargauth also has a certain degree of psychic power, which means that when he uses psychic power, he may be in contact with Noshir's thoughts and find that Noshir is spying on his mind.

But interestingly, the panel shows that he can only extend his telepathy to ten meters at most, which is completely inconsistent with the ability of a pit fiend, especially a demigod pit fiend.

So the only possibility is that the seal restricts him. When he uses this ability, he is likely to be blocked by the seal, and he may not be able to use his psychic power to communicate with others for a long time.

The latter point is still in doubt, but Noshir has confirmed the former point later. Because of the limitation of the seal, when he uses this ability, he will have an obvious accumulation of power at the mental level. Noshir can seize this gap to avoid his psychic induction.

As for how Noshir discovered this? That's because long before Gargauth used telepathy to connect them for the second time, Noshir had already begun to use the Crown of Domination to detect the devils that might be hidden nearby.

Although Noshiel did not sense Gargos's presence at the first time due to the seal on the shield, Gargos's mental reaction at that moment before he used telepathy to connect with Noshiel and the others for the second time still made him sense the process of charging. At the same time, because he was shocked by this accident, Noshiel subconsciously withdrew his telepathy, so Gargos did not find any abnormality.

After Noshiel determined the entire details of the shield, he immediately began to use his ability to sense evil spirits to comprehensively observe Gargos's inner reaction in the shield.

Then, when Gargos proposed to use telepathy to transmit information and test Noshiel at the same time, a certain amount of psychic charging reaction emerged in the shield. After sensing this, he immediately withdrew his thoughts and avoided the psychic power he wanted to explore.

Then Gargos heard the toughness and threat in Noshiel's words, so he did not choose to continue to explore telepathy, but through this point, Noshiel could be sure that as long as this guy did not come out of the shield, he would have no secrets in front of Noshiel.
