An Ordinary Fantasy Adventure in the Continent of Faerun

Chapter 524 Action

Raphael left. After Noshir evaded Raphael's invitation, the always patient devil also temporarily lost interest in talking. So, with a burst of fire, he quietly disappeared in the shadows.

But before he left, he still provided sufficient information. Gotash had really offended him. Not only did he steal his hammer, but even the owner came to him and didn't get any benefits. He was forced away by force. For Raphael, as a devil, this was a shame that he would remember for a lifetime.

For Raphael, Noshir was a tool to retaliate against them. In order to make this tool play a greater role, Raphael directly told Noshir all the news he knew.

This information included Gotash's current hiding place, an underwater building called the Iron Throne, located overseas, not far from Baldur's Gate.

When Raphael said this, Noshir also remembered the information about that place in an instant. Yes, he knew that place, because the Iron Throne had appeared in the original plot of Baldur's Gate 3. In the original plot, Gortash transformed it into his private prison to imprison the families of those Gond believers so that they could build Iron Guards for themselves wholeheartedly. Even in the original plot, even Grand Duke Urd Ravengard would be imprisoned there one day in the future.

When Noshir fought against Keseric and the Mastermind at the Tower of the Moon, he had quietly overheard the news about the Iron Throne from the mouth of the evil mind, but because that place was too far away from the land and the specific location was unclear, Noshir himself had no time to search.

He has been busy digesting the incentive points he had obtained before and strengthening his strength recently. He thought that there would be no mistakes a few days later, but Noshir still ignored Gortash's ability to make trouble, but fortunately it is not too late now.

In addition to the news of Gotash's current hiding place, Raphael also provided another important information, that is, the Star Prism has been confirmed to be obtained by Gotash and his team.

The one who took action is still our old friend, Xie Nian, because Olin in this world has completely lost the opportunity to make trouble. Xie Nian, the legendary assassin, also played the role set in the original book. No matter what plan Gotash has, as long as Xie Nian is by his side, the plan has the possibility of being successfully implemented.

And Raphael also told Noshier that Xie Nian successfully stole the Star Prism last night. Considering that his timing was almost perfect and the strange time flow rate difference in the star world, Raphael speculated that Vlaakis's red dragon cavalry would descend on Baldur's Gate tonight at the latest, and Gotash at that time would definitely take the opportunity to try to talk to Vlaakis secretly.

Considering that their alliance was crude, there was a high probability that the two sides would fail in the deal. But even if the deal failed, Vlaakis's red dragon riders would not just teach Gortash and his thieves a lesson. The Githyanki were a race known as the astral pirates.

Under the leadership of Vlaakis, they had lost the self-sufficiency of a race. Now the Githyanki could only plunder the races of other planes to ensure their survival. And this long-awaited war, these guys would definitely not end so anticlimactic.

The Githyanki had an absolute advantage in force. Vlaakis only needed to send out three red dragons, and Baldur's Gate would completely lose all its resistance. They would definitely devour the flesh and blood of Baldur's Gate until they were full and drunk, and then they would ride on the backs of the red dragons and fly back to the astral world. And this was the ending after their deal failed.

If Gotash had used his eloquence normally and persuaded Vlaakis to reach a consensus, what kind of consequences would that bring? Noshir didn't even dare to think about it. He had to take action.

After Raphael left, Noshir sped up his actions. He cleaned up the possible threatening species in the cave as quickly as possible, told Asdalen and others all the things that should be explained, and gave the petrified lizard egg to King Snitik as a gift, hoping that this gift representing friendship could appease the spirits of both parties to the greatest extent.

After that, Noshir left Mizora here again, asking him to deal with all the problems that might arise in the future. He also gave Mizora the money and deeds left by Raphael. If they encountered problems that could not be solved by conventional means, these things could also give them a way out.

After that, Noshir quickly returned to Baldur's Gate. After he settled Asdalen and others, the panel also gave him another myth incentive point as a reward as Noshir expected.

With this Mythic Inspiration Point named [Into the Depths of Darkness], he has completely gathered everything he needs to move forward. A total of nine Mythic Inspiration Points are enough to sublimate his three most powerful specialties.

According to the original plan, Noshir should now find a quiet place to digest all these Mythic Inspiration Points, so that he can soar into the sky and gain power comparable to that of a god as a mortal!

But unfortunately, now is not the time to do these things. The threat of the Githyanki is imminent. He must deal with these problems first before he can safely use the power of the Mythic Inspiration Points.

After all, he had never used this power before. He was not sure how long it would take for the Mythic Inspiration Point to successfully sublimate his expertise, and he was not sure what the consequences would be if he was disturbed or even attacked by others during the process. These were all things he could not know and did not want to confirm personally.

So when Noshir returned to Baldur's Gate, he immediately started to act. Noshir did not disturb his old teammates. At the turn of the new year, everyone was busy and had their own things to do.

Since Karak joined the Flaming Fist, the team she led has become the most enthusiastic and busiest team in Baldur's Gate. There are countless things to do every day. Others may think it is troublesome, but Noshir thinks she enjoys it.

Scar is still carrying out the traditions unique to the Paladin. In such good deeds, his power is even increasing day by day, although Scar is definitely not doing this because he wants power.

Minsk... Well, Minsk was fine, but Noshir always felt that as long as he took him with him, he would never be able to successfully ambush Gortash and his men. It was very dangerous to deal with the Chosen Ones. Currently, only Skar, Minsk and Karak were able to act with Noshir in Baldur's Gate, but even they could not guarantee that they would be safe and sound within the sight of the gods.

Considering such a dangerous reason, Noshir thought about it and finally felt that it would be more convenient for him to act alone than in a group. At least if he was alone, his infiltration would be less likely to be discovered.

——

Noshir left the dark environment of the Underdark. After several days, he finally saw the scenery of the earth world for the first time in a long time.

At that moment, Noshir felt an indescribable tranquility, but soon, the sun hanging in the sky was telling him clearly that today's day would be completely over in just a few hours.

Before the night falls completely, the red dragon of the Gith Yanki will light up the whole city first. He must get rid of the two bastards before the Gith Yanki arrive.

This means that he must fly directly from Dust Eagle Mountain to the sea outside Sword Bay within two hours, and then dive into the sea and rush into the Iron Throne. Obviously, there is not much time left for Noshiel, but this problem alone is not difficult for him.

Since he has completely mastered the power of infinite violence, Noshiel can always maintain himself in a specialized combat state based on a certain beast spirit, which lasts for basically unlimited time. This means that Noshiel can always maximize the power of the eagle totem and let himself get a pair of eagle wings again.

Combined with the wings he already has, the four wings can always maintain a super-high speed of 90 meters per second, and if he tries hard, he can even increase it by one section. With this speed, Noshiel successfully arrived near the target sea area in less than half an hour.

After that, Noshier immediately lifted the eagle totem's violent state, and the gem on the crown of domination also emitted red light at the same time. With a flash of light, the only thing left in the sky was a fish that looked very harmless and had a wise look in its eyes.

Plop.

The wingless fish instantly fell into the sea, causing a wave of insignificant waves, but the fish itself was even less tangible than the waves, because the moment the fish entered the sea, it disappeared without a trace in the ocean like transparent glass.

The fish could not be a fish, of course, his crown was limited to plundering the souls of demons, but his crown had another function, which was to twist these captured demon souls together and transform them into another creature, and this fish was the biggest confidence for Noshier to ambush and attack the two chosen ones alone, and it was also the fundamental reason why he was able to find the Iron Throne and was confident that he could sneak in without anyone noticing.

——

The transparent fish flew around the sea area at a speed that could be called swift, without anyone being able to sense or perceive it, and this patrol did not last long.

Thanks to the huge size of the Iron Throne itself, when Noshier, who had transformed into a fish, finally broke through the barrier of the seawater to his vision and observed the outline of the Iron Throne from thousands of meters away, he immediately swam up silently. After patrolling along the Iron Throne, he chose a complex pipe exposed to the outside, and finally swam along that pipe into the seawater filter inside the building.

This was a sealed barrel-shaped iron box. Noshier recognized the purpose of this box as soon as he came in, and found that the pipes connected to the outside of the box were not enough to support a creature of his size to pass through, but it didn't matter, this problem still didn't bother him.

Almost in an instant, the fish that Noshier transformed into was immediately covered with a layer of black light, and in the next moment, it seemed as if it didn't exist, and it directly penetrated the iron barrel made of brass.

After passing through the iron barrel, the fish did not fall to the ground with a bang. Instead, it suddenly deformed violently the moment it came out, turning into a standard humanoid creature, and then immediately shrank back into the darkness. The whole person, along with the equipment on his body, became completely transparent.

He maintained this form and began to walk around the underwater fortress made of brass and wire fences and giant glass, and performed the first reconnaissance mission.

Although Raphael swore that everything he said was true when he left, Noshier had to see his target hiding here with his own eyes, and at the same time, he could make a big fuss here with complete peace of mind after confirming that there was no innocent person in this place.

Noshier was strolling around like this, while silently feeling his current situation. The form he was in was specially designed by Noshier himself, which could be used in any terrain for lurking, exploration, collection, and even fighting.

In order to ensure that this form can have enough abilities, and to prevent negative effects after having so many abilities, Noshier deliberately chose the dream demon as the basic template.

The reason is that the dream demon race has a powerful deformation ability that can even convert genders to each other, which means that this race has a very high deformation tolerance and can withstand as many special abilities as possible.

Noshier thought so, and did so, and finally succeeded. His current body not only has the ability to transform almost omnipotently, but also successfully added the [Invisibility Field] of the Hunting Demon, the [Limited Magic Immunity] of the Rakshasa, the [Phantom Movement] of the Shadow Demon, the [Latitude Lock] and [Intuitive Sense] of the Canoros Demon, and the [Low Presence in the Dark] provided by a very rare demon named the Evil Toad Demon.

These abilities can better help Noshier complete the purpose of lurking, especially the last ability, but it can reduce the sense of presence, which is something that cannot be explained. However, with the help of these abilities, Noshier did complete the task of investigation very easily.

He was sure that Xie Nian and Gotash were really here. With the intuitive sense of the Canoros Demon, Noshier could feel that the two were now in the same place, and there were many other people beside them.
