Chapter 280: Revelation

Noshir looked at the serious and solemn priest Luxiut, and then looked at his teammates beside him.

Scar and Leon, who had just arrived at the meeting room, nodded. Xiaobu also squeaked twice on behalf of Minsk, who was sleeping soundly. It seemed that he agreed to the priest's request. After confirming the wishes of his teammates, Noshir also made a promise to the priest Luxiut.

"Everyone knows how important the value of the artifact is. I promise you, Mr. Priest, if we can really find the whereabouts of the artifact during the exploration, we will definitely try to bring it back if possible, or at least bring relevant information."

The priest also exhaled deeply after hearing Noshir's promise.

"Thank you, thank you. The believers of the Hand of Justice will remember your efforts and dedication. No matter whether this holy relic can return to the arms of our Lord in the end, you will be our friends and the eternal friends of the believers of Tom."

Priest Luxiut bowed to Noshir and his party again, and then said no more and retreated quietly.

At this time, everyone was still digesting the heavy news brought by the sacrifice. It was not until the Grand Duke coughed heavily that everyone came back to their senses. The Grand Duke also spoke to everyone in a serious tone at this time.

"Everyone should understand the importance of the artifact. Although this artifact has been temporarily lost, it is best not to leak any information about it. I trust everyone present, so I will not ask you for anything, but I still hope that everyone can understand the importance of this incident."

After hearing the Duke's words, everyone instantly understood what the Duke wanted to say.

Under the Duke's lead, everyone, including Noshier, swore by the gods they believed in, vowing not to deliberately leak any information about this artifact.

At this point, the meeting was successfully concluded, and everyone began to leave in an orderly manner. Except for Noshir and his group, everyone else received their respective tasks in the previous meeting. The most important task for Noshir and his group at this time was to rest quickly, recuperate, and maintain sufficient physical strength and vigorous energy. About 12 hours later, they would leave the safe city and rush to Avernus below the city to explore and adventure.

After the rest of the people left in an orderly manner, Noshir also exchanged a few words with Scar and Leon, discussed the possible itinerary next time, and took precautions against possible problems in hell in advance. After the exchange, the team members also left one after another.

Leon carried Minsk, who had been sleeping soundly since the meeting began and had not woken up yet, and took him to his room. Xiaobu on the table also waved to everyone, and then quickly rushed to Minsk's big bald head and left here with him.

Although Minsk has been selected as a participant in the operation, he actually has no idea about it. All his actions are arranged by Xiaobu... Well, this is no different from Minsk making his own decisions. Anyway, it was the same before and now. Otherwise, why would someone say that Xiaobu is Minsk's driver? In addition, this guy is keen on adventure. Even if he is not asleep, he will definitely agree to participate in this mission.

"Then I will go to rest first, Noshir."

Skar nodded to Noshir while speaking, then picked up the shield leaning on the chair and prepared to leave. Noshir nodded in response, but suddenly his brows frowned suddenly, and the corner of his eyes looked at the shield on Scar's back and condensed slightly.

"Wait a minute, Scar, lend me your shield first, and I will return it to you after the operation starts."

Skar, who had already turned to leave, stopped immediately. He seemed a little confused about Noshir's sudden move, but Scar didn't think much about it. He took off the shield on his shoulder and handed it directly to Noshir.

"Thanks, man."

Noshiel took the shield and put it on his back.

"It's just a shield, no need to thank me, but why are you taking it now?"

"Nothing, nothing too important, I just have a guess that I want to verify. You should not have forgotten where we found this shield?"

"I snatched it from the devil in the basement of the Duke's Mansion, of course I won't forget..., could it be!"

"Ah, it's almost what you think, but whether it is true or not, I should be able to draw a conclusion soon. By the way, let me ask, is this shield still honest when I'm not here? Has it tried to communicate with you?"

"No, in fact Since that day, I have hardly heard this shield speak on its own initiative. If he continues like this, I might soon forget that this shield can speak. "

"I haven't tried to communicate..., okay, it seems that this guy is quite honest, but let's leave it like this for now. I'm leaving first, Scar, see you when the plan starts."

Noshir waved to Scar, and left here with the shield and went to his private room. Scar, who was left there, pondered for a while, and soon shook his head, gave up deep thinking, entrusted everything to Noshir, and returned to his room to rest.

——

Noshir, who came to his room, immediately closed the wooden door tightly and plugged the wooden bolt. After making sure that there was no one around, he put the shield directly on the table against the wall, and then silently turned off the ability of the mind shield ring to hinder mind communication.

"Hello, Hidden Lord, how have you been lately?"

The shield remained silent.

"Well, you don't talk? I remember that when I first met you, you were not as dull and boring as you are now. Why are you dumb now? Don't you want to talk, or do you think your lies have lost their meaning?"

"What lies? I don't remember that I have ever told you a single lie."

"You are still refusing to admit it now? That shouldn't be the case, Hidden Lord. You don't really think that your lies with so many mistakes can deceive me, do you? Long before I came to hell, Madam Satyr had already told me all about your life. Your lies have long been exposed, and there is no need to insist on them."

"I still don't understand what you are talking about?"

The devil in the shield continued to play dumb, and Noshier was so angry at his reaction that he laughed unconsciously. This guy really didn't cry until he saw the coffin.

"There is no need to pretend anymore, Hidden Lord. Or should I call you by your real name, Mr. Gargos? I shouldn't have called you by the wrong name, right? Hidden Lord."
