Chapter 401 Contact
Ska and Karak left together, and Mizora followed them to Baldur's Gate after using a disguise.
'It would be great if [Baldur's Heart] was not dead. '
Looking at the gradually disappearing light of the teleportation spell in front of him, such a thought suddenly popped up in Noshier's mind.
Baldur's Heart is a title, and its true identity is an ancient bronze dragon named Ansu. Legend has it that he is the founder of Baldur's Gate and Baldran's partner. After Baldran left Baldur's Gate and set sail for adventure, Ansu has been staying under the city, silently guarding the city, the treasure they built together.
If Baldur's Heart is still alive, relying on the power of that ancient dragon, Baldur's Gate can definitely sweep away all the monsters and demons very easily, and they don't have to risk acting separately to ensure the advantage of combat effectiveness, but unfortunately, at this time point, Ansu may have died in the hands of the monarch.
‘Without this ancient bronze dragon as a trump card, Baldur's Gate may not be able to fight against Shaflock, but now that the three of them have joined this cleanup activity, I can be more at ease. Even if I really encounter danger and cannot fight, I can ask Mizora to summon me directly from thin air to help. ’
Yes, this is Noshir's biggest insurance, but if possible, he really doesn't want Scar to be forced to use this backup method. After all, the criticality of his mission is definitely not lower than theirs. If he is really forced to accept the summon, he must temporarily give up the exploration here.
But this will leave time for the main brain to develop, and facing a complete main brain, even now he dare not guarantee that he can defeat it.
"I have to act quickly."
It takes about seven days to walk from Eltoril to the Shadow Curse Land. Noshir can fly, and it takes less than a day to go there from the sky, which can greatly shorten the journey.
But flying also consumes physical strength, and the place eroded by the Shadow Curse is definitely not safe. He doesn't want to rush there and then spend time repairing, but fortunately he is now able to solve this problem.
Noshier raised his heels and let the two metal spurs collide. With a burst of dazzling sparks, a hell horse was summoned from the Nine Hells along with the magic circle on the ground. Then Noshier immediately sat on the back of Nightmare. As soon as he pulled the reins, the nightmare horse named Mars immediately raised its hooves and took him quickly to the Shadow Curse Land.
He wanted to rush there alone to check it out. Noshier believed in his own strength, and he could only feel at ease if he left such an important matter to himself.
"The first stop in the Shadow Curse Land is to find the End Light Inn. If I remember correctly, there is a Selune Xinne named Isobel in that hotel. She has a magical protective method that allows others to ignore the Shadow Curse. Considering the evil nature of the Shadow Curse in the game, such protective measures are still necessary, but there is a problem now."
Noshier's brain began to quickly recall his past experiences in the game.
"Does the Endlight Inn in the game exist in reality? After all, isn't the most important reason why the inn was opened because the Harpers stayed there? But at this point in time, the Harpers probably don't know what happened there at all? If they didn't know there was something abnormal, they wouldn't risk such a big risk to establish a base there, right?"
Just as Scar told him before leaving, the Shadow Curse Land is a very dangerous dead land, full of all kinds of Shadow Curse Undead Creatures, and you can see a lot of undead and weirds just by walking a few steps. There are also a lot of dry needle monsters and creeping monsters in the corrupt and withered woods. If normal people walk directly in the shadows without carrying protective measures, they will be cursed by the darkness that permeates this land, and will be continuously damaged by the eclipse.
Once a living being dies under the Shadow Curse, it won't be long before they are activated by the Ghost Curse into monsters, becoming one of the real threats wandering in that land.
"Maybe I should ask Master Jaheira about the situation in advance. If the Endlight Inn really exists, that would be the best, but if that inn has not been built yet, then I have to prepare for a rainy day and prepare some other protective measures in advance."
For example, torches. In the Shadow Curse Land, there must be enough light to move normally, but torches are a bit unreliable. When encountering a cursed area, the torches will also be extinguished by the curse. Once the light source is lost there, it is obvious what will happen next.
"It seems that it is really necessary to ask in advance."
Thinking of this, Noshiel immediately took out the sound transmission stone that could contact Master Jaheira and activated it directly.
Because the master left Eltoril seven days ago, Noshiel can only use this method to contact her now. Because of the principles of the Harpist, she did not even participate in the original awarding ceremony. After confirming that it was safe here, she immediately chose to leave, and Minsk and Xiaobu did the same. They chose to leave with Master Jaheira.
Well, there is nothing wrong with this choice. Noshir also understands it. After all, they have been petrified for more than 200 years. The world has changed. Minsk is still Minsk, and Xiaobu is still Xiaobu, but many people he knows are gone.
And Jaheira is not only his old friend, but Minsk also stubbornly regards her as his new soul mentor. This is the tradition of Leshaman. Every Berserker will choose a witch to follow when traveling. However, his first soul mentor, Danahei, died in an accident. After Minsk came out of the shadow, he chose Jaheira as his new soul mentor. With such an identity, it is normal for Minsk not to follow himself, but to continue to follow Jaheira.
"Strange, why is there no response?"
Noshir has activated the sound transmission stone, but after five minutes, there has been no reply from Master Jaheira. This is not normal, unless the master puts the sound transmission stone into the space equipment like he did before, but as the leader of the Harpers, Master Jaheira must be prepared to receive any information at any time.
Even when Harsin couldn't contact Noshir, he could contact the master directly and get in touch with Noshir. It doesn't make sense that it's my turn.
"No way, I've only been away for a few days. Is there any accident?"
