Chapter 165 Situation

"I see. I have always wondered how those cultists below the dungeon died. I didn't expect it to be like this. But even so, this experience is really...bizarre."

Havanak said silently, and this sentence seemed to be a trigger. At this time, everyone else was no longer silent, but expressed their own exclamation.

Bion: "It's unbelievable. Although the person involved talks about it so lightly, I know that achieving what you have today cannot be achieved by just luck."

Palestine: ''If the fact hadn't happened before my eyes, I would have thought this was a story made up by that second-rate bard. "

Liara: "Incredible..."

Words like this kept ringing in the hall for a while, but in the end it was Advisor Florrick who was the first to come to her senses, and she said to Nohir with some excitement.

"This is really, I don't know how to thank you. You have completely solved a series of crises that Tavis Craig may have caused. Because of your heroic actions, now we can directly focus on Put it on rescuing the Duke.”

"Even when we announce this news to the public tomorrow, we can proudly claim that we have solved all the troubles. All the people of Baldur's Gate owe you a favor."

At Advisor Florrick's sincere thanks, Nohill just smiled and continued.

"You're welcome, counselor. As long as you don't complain about my deliberate concealment before, I'll be thankful to God."

"Oh, Nohir, no one here will complain about this level of concealment. There is an old saying in Baldur's Gate. Everyone hides secrets in Baldur's Gate. What's more, you chose to reveal it to us in the end. "

"You have shown the utmost trust in us. If we still blame you for this, then we would be too ungrateful."

Several other people also nodded in agreement with Advisor Florrick at this time.

Palestine: "Yes, although I did not expect that things would develop in this direction, but it is precisely because of your activity that we can finally think about the next countermeasures."

Bion: "It's not just a countermeasure. Didn't you listen carefully? Nohir used a control spell to control Tavis Craig, which means we can pry it out of Tavis Craig's mouth." A lot of information about hell has been released! Maybe we can now directly figure out why the hell portal at the main fortress of dawn was suddenly closed!"

etc.

Nohir looked at the people involved in the heated discussion and suddenly caught a key piece of information from their words.

"Wait a moment, I'm sorry, Consultant Florrick, don't you still know why the hell portal is closed?"

Florrick was stunned for a moment after hearing Nohir's question, and then answered.

"Who knows? The devil's action really caught us off guard, but what makes us even more unpredictable is their next action, although we now know the reason why Eltoril fell into hell. It’s because of that thing called the Sun of Conspiracy, but no one can explain why that thing suddenly closed.”

Palestine also replied at this time.

"That's right, those devils really played a trick on us. When the super-large cross-border portal was erected at the ruins of Eltoril, all the countries in the North thought that a storm was coming. A huge hell has invaded.”

"At that time, Waterdeep City and Neverwinter City had already begun to prepare their armies after receiving the news. Waterdeep City even sent a whole griffon company and two archmages to the main fortress of Dawn, but they had just arrived, and their back foot was The hell portal was closed, and the news of its opening had just reached Silvermoon City and Dagger Beach."

Bion also took over the topic at this time.

"Due to the abnormal behavior of the devils suddenly closing the portal, the Northland Lords Alliance's defense alert, which had been raised to the highest level, instantly turned into a joke. At first, Waterdeep City and Neverwinter City, which were closest to here, remained wary for a few days. But soon everyone, including Baldur's Gate, confirmed that the devils had completely given up on invading the main material plane."

"After confirming this, the people of the Northland Lords Alliance also began to gradually disband the army two days ago. The originally agreed armies dispersed quickly after the portal was closed. In fact, these armies did not even leave. Not even in time.”

"The only ones who are still staying in the Dawn Barrier are the first Griffin company from Waterdeep City. Even the Archmage returned to their original residence after confirming that the portal is really completely closed."

Nohir frowned when he heard this. He didn't expect the northern countries to be so irresponsible in facing this kind of thing, and Ska asked in disbelief.

"How could this happen? The army has obviously been assembled, but what about the surviving people? What about the people who are still suffering in hell? Doesn't anyone care about Eltoril's life or death?"

Bion, Havanak and Palestine looked at each other. Now that they knew that Scar was a survivor from Eltoril, they probably couldn't accept such a cruel reality, so they just shook their heads.

But Liara was not so tactful, she spoke directly.

"Why should they care? They are not the ones in trouble. In fact, let alone them, if our Grand Duke had not disappeared along with the city, Baldur's Gate would not have gotten involved in this mess."

"Don't think that the Northern Lords' Alliance is really that noble. The reason why their army was able to assemble so quickly this time was entirely to prevent the devil from jumping over the portal and invading their lair, so they responded so quickly in a short period of time."

"But as long as they confirm that this portal is really closed, they will not have the need to continue to care about the lives of subsequent survivors, let alone the life and death of Eltoril. After all, Elturgard is not a member of the Northern Lords' Alliance."

Although Liara's words were blunt and rough, they revealed the essence of the operation of the Northern Lords' Alliance. After all, they are not a charity organization. Unless it is a major crisis like the previous cross-border portal of the devil, which may endanger the entire North, otherwise they will definitely not care about the lives of other cities besides themselves.

Advisor Florrick also continued at this time.

"I'm sorry, Scar, maybe Liara's words are too straightforward, but this is the situation we are facing now. Eltoril may not be able to get help from other cities, but it doesn't matter, Baldur's Gate will intervene."

"Now we have learned the truth. Tomorrow, the entire Baldur's Gate newspaper will publish this news. When the truth spreads, Baldur's Gate will also usher in a certain degree of stability. By then, we can prepare to open the passage to Hell and save our Grand Duke in Hell."

And Palestine suddenly spoke up at this time to continue the words of Consultant Florrick.

"What's more, we have already known the reason why Eltoril sank into Hell through the puzzle box. Now we just need to find the original contract and destroy it, Eltoril can return to the main material plane, and the whole city can be saved."

Nosir looked at Palestine. He knew that the veteran was just taking care of Scar's emotions. When they really went to Hell, they would definitely make finding the Grand Duke their main goal, but such behavior undoubtedly made Nosir and Scar feel a little touched.

"Thank you, Palestine, but in the face of a crisis of this level, who can guarantee that such a thing can be done? I appreciate your kindness."

Noshir nodded to Palestine, but then he said to the people in front of him.

"At the same time, I want to tell you that I actually know why those demons gave up invading the main material plane."

"Because the bloody battle in the abyss is now erupting in hell, the demons are withdrawing because they were ambushed by demons on the battlefield and need to return to defend urgently. They don't have time to care about Eltoril who was dragged into hell. If you want to save the Duke, then the recent period is the best time to act."
