An Ordinary Fantasy Adventure in the Continent of Faerun

Chapter 454 Abnormal Situation

Because of his expertise as a wanderer, the intricate underground environment did not hinder Noshiel's return. Due to his strict memory of the details of the environment in his previous wandering life, even in such a harsh lightless environment, Noshiel did not get lost.

His journey was extremely smooth. He did not encounter any sneak attacks from evil thoughts, nor did he encounter any monsters that thrived underground. Just over an hour later, relying on the steel predator, which was not at full speed but still extremely fast, he successfully rode the predator from the intricate underground tunnel and returned to the underground dungeon in the Moonrise Tower!

Noshiel, who rushed out of the underground world, held the giant axe close to 1/3 of the axe with his right hand, supported the predator's huge head with his left hand, spread his wings slightly, bent his legs, and crouched on the body of the steel beast with caution and readiness.

In Noshir's expectation, no matter how easy it was to return from the underground world, there would inevitably be a big battle after returning to the sphere of influence of the Moonrise Tower.

After all, he had captured the king of these undead. As long as Catheric still had the slightest desire to resist and break away from control, the undead in the entire Moonrise Tower would not be indifferent.

They would definitely receive orders to intercept him, and the high-level undead in the Moonrise Tower would definitely manipulate thousands of undead in the tower to launch rounds of attacks on Noshir until Catheric Som was snatched back from him.

However...

"What's going on? What happened here? Where is the warm welcome I imagined?"

Noshir is now in the underground prison area under the Moonrise Tower. Originally, when he went down from here to the underground, there was nothing in this place, let alone ordinary creatures, and even patrolling undead were few. After all, there were no prisoners to be guarded here, and it could be said to be deadly empty.

But even at that time, there were at least one or two wandering skeletons patrolling together, but now, when Noshier looked up, even the skeletons he remembered at the beginning had disappeared.

This situation is quite wrong. In Noshier's expectation, this narrow, dark, and almost unlivable underground space must be filled with all kinds of undead armies to chase and intercept him, but now...

'Could it be that Jahira and the others are here? No, it's not even a day now, and their condition has not recovered completely. According to the original plan, they will not come to the Moonrise Tower to harass the undead here until tomorrow at the earliest. '

Thinking of this, Noshier thought silently for a while, but without any information, he really didn't have any clues.

'How about... going up and taking a look? ’

Standing on the predator, Noshier looked at the spiral staircase in the distance. Through that staircase, he could directly return to the interior of the Moonrise Tower, that is, the room full of jackals. Maybe as long as he went there, he would know what happened in the Moonrise Tower now.

‘The evil thoughts retreated inexplicably, and now even the Moonrise Tower has such an abnormal thing. Oh, it’s really terrible. I always feel that the current situation has begun to gallop in a direction I don’t know at all. ’

Noshier looked at the spiral staircase in front of him, and then looked at the shadow corner behind him. In his original expectation, if he was surrounded after coming out, he would break out and escape in that direction, because in the game, walking in that direction would lead to a very hidden small pier.

The Moonrise Tower was originally built on the edge of a tributary of the Jonsa River, and the characters in the game could also take a boat there to leave the Moonrise Tower.

In the game, the purpose of this pier is to facilitate the players to retreat with the refugees imprisoned in the Moonrise Tower. If you look at this point, the existence of this pier seems to be somewhat inconsistent with the logic of the real world, but in fact it is not the case.

Noshier had confirmed in advance that this pier still existed even in this real world, and the reason why this pier existed was actually because it was an escape route reserved by the owner of the tower.

In this kind of fantasy castle, each castle owner must prepare one or even several such escape routes, so that they can evacuate their families safely when danger occurs. It is a necessity in a sense.

Noshier's original plan was to break out in that direction after coming out. He didn't need to take a boat because he could fly. He just needed to find the cave that could connect to the outside world and fly away directly. But now this weird situation made him a little unsure whether he should leave there immediately.

'No, I can't just let it go. I must know what happened in the Moonrise Tower. Now the plot of this world has been completely disrupted. Whatever happens next is possible. I must collect as much intelligence as possible so that I can prevent possible threats in the future in advance and not be stunned by sudden crises. ’

Noshier glanced at Catheric who was being held by the predator. In order to prevent this guy from causing trouble, he had his kitten grill his entire body with charcoal before coming out. After such torture, it would be impossible for this guy to recover his fighting power in a short time.

However, to be on the safe side, Noshier decided to take him along, and would not let this guy out of his sight for even a second.

In this way, Noshier rode on the predator, and the predator held Catheric in its mouth. The three of them walked up the stairs that circled into the tower one by one. When the predator's claws stepped on the stone bricks inside the Moonrise Tower for the first time, Noshier finally saw the mess inside the tower.

"...How should I put it? This is not the scene I imagined."

Noshier jumped off the predator's head, and he had just landed on the ground when the pair of boots on his feet, which had become unusually clean with the help of the cleaning scroll, were stained with a thick layer of blood again.

That was the blood of the jackals, the pets brought to this tower by evil thoughts, raised through self-mutilation and raising Gu, but these pets were already dead at this time, and it was not the moody evil thoughts that killed them.

Noshier leaned over and picked up a tattered skull. Such bones were as common as the limbs of the gnolls scattered throughout the room. In addition to these bones, there were some ghoul limbs, embers left after the ghosts died, and some gnoll zombies that stood up again after sensing the presence of living people.

These things have fully shown who killed these gnolls.

"How did these undead spirits fight with the evil pets?"
