Chapter 42 The Secret of Hell
It is very necessary to obtain an identity in advance.
What Nohill can be sure of now is that Harsin will never let himself participate in this big event, and his final goal is to go to hell, so Nohill can't even stay in the green Woodland seeks out anyone looking for a helper he knows well.
You have to find your own way.
After all, no one except myself can participate in this plan, including Ska.
After all, even this guy who was blinded by the anger of revenge knew that if he didn't have enough helpers and went into hell alone, it would be the same as dying.
Although this guy will most likely choose to go to hell with Nohill if he knows the truth, but Nohill will not accept it. After all, Ska does not have the same legendary pairing as Nohill. Devil's Noble Phantasm.
Hell is so dangerous. If Nohir had not obtained this crown before, he would never dare to enter hell.
——
“Anything can happen in hell, I must be prepared in advance.”
In the next few days, Nohill must carefully study the details about the devils in hell given to him by monster knowledge, carefully study the class divisions of devils, and prepare enough supplies for consumption in hell.
And the most important thing is the disguise of identity.
“Even though I look very similar to the devil, I am not a devil after all. A real devil can recognize my true identity just by smell.”
“So Tavis is very concerned about the current situation. This is the best option. Anzu Demon, who is the commander class in hell, can order and scold some weaker lower-level devils at will even if he is not known to other devils. "
" When encountering high-level devils, you can also directly remove Tavis's immediate superiors and use Zariel to intimidate them, so that you can have more freedom of action."
It can be said that once Tavis' soul is obtained, there will be many benefits.
Although the above listed are all advantages, it is not easy to obtain his soul, because his soul is protected by the hell contract, and the control of his soul is firmly in the hands of Zha Zhan. Riel's hand, so even the Crown of Dominance may not be able to obtain his soul.
But it doesn't matter, his soul is not necessary, because there is only one piece of information that Nohir really wants to know through the memory in his mind.
“Tavis Craig should know where is the original contract that he personally signed to package and sell Eltoril and his own soul. Right?”
——
The devils' contract power comes from their ruler, Asmodeus, Lord of the Nine Hells.
When he turned his back on the gods of heaven, he used a trick to get the gods of heaven to sign the original contract of Taichu in triplicate, which clearly recorded the gifts given to Asmodeus and his subordinates by the gods of order. The responsibilities and authorities of fallen angels.
That is -
Fallen souls go to hell, and kind souls ascend to heaven.
These three original contracts can be said to be Asmodeus's most important treasures and the foundation for the creation of the Nine Hells.
The original contract cannot be destroyed, but each contract has its own place. Whether it is for gods or devils, they cannot be transferred arbitrarily, otherwise order will be deflected and the power of chaos will prevail.
This kind of consequence is unacceptable to both the gods of order and the devils of law.
The portion that belonged to Asmodeus was properly kept in the lowest and narrowest plane of the nine hells by himself.
Nasus, under the personal care and control of Asmodeus.
He used a huge ruby to wrap the entire Covenant of the Beginning layer by layer, and built the world's strongest fortress, the Castle of Nessus, for protection.
The entire fortress was built entirely for this contract, and that contract has never left that location since ancient times.
The other two copies were also properly kept in similar ways.
Their positions are respectively——
The mechanical mirror of clock nirvana.
Seven Hills of Heaven, Heaven Mountain. ——
“If that contract is not found and torn up, the entire city will still be floating firmly on the bloody battlefield of the Nine Hells as it is now.”
People They will silently wait for the death knell to be sounded in a desperate mood.
To the devils, the death knell is the bell that rings before a big meal.
“Although the time for the devils to start their feast has been delayed due to the outbreak of the bloody battle, when the devils repel the demon army to a certain range, they will have time to savor the meal. Dinner.”
This bloody battle started without any warning. The demons' attack was too sudden. Even the bronze fortress had its three peripheral defenses broken through. This meant that three of the legendary pit demons deployed on the city wall were killed. indivual.
It seems that the situation is very critical, but in fact the demons only took advantage of a surprise attack. As time goes by, the situation on the battlefield will soon be equalized by the demons, or even counterpressed.
This time won’t even be very slow. After all, the devils are very disciplined, with powerful weapons, excellent physical fitness and the brains to throw the devils off countless streets. In less than a month, they The demons can be driven to a relatively safe location.
“At that time, the devil who finally has free time will command countless lemures, dragging the 8 huge chains, completely immersing the city floating in the sky. "In the River Styx."
"During this period, there will be countless demons who will board the city with a hunting mentality and use various methods to force people to sign contracts. Obtain the right to own his soul ”
Make it into a soul coin, swallow it and turn it into your own power, or hand it over to the superior devil in exchange for your own promotion.
“I’m afraid the people in the city won’t be able to hold on for long. If we really wait a few months to drag the city back, then there should be very few people dead in the entire city.”
< br>“Damn it, even if I get this helmet, which is an artifact that can be used to deal with devils, I can’t guarantee that I can save the city completely. This situation is really urgent.”
“ said Really, is this really something that I, a level 4 barbarian, should get involved in?”
Nohill scratched the horns on his head irritably, although Nohill had never personally seen what was going on in hell. What a virtue, but just by seeing what it's like inside Raphael's mansion while playing Baldur's Gate 3, you'll know what kind of hell it is.
"Oh, I don't want to think about it anymore. Let's take it one step at a time. First find the so-called Supreme Observer and find some information about hell from his mind. Then I will find a way to reveal this information to the Harper."< br>
“Let these real bosses do the hard work, and I will just be a bastard in secret.”
“But the premise of all this is that I am in Baldur’s Gate. The journey can go smoothly. After getting the Eagle Totem tomorrow, we will set off with Ska."
"Let's see what we can encounter in this city. I hope to see old friends from the past, maybe myself. I can also do a favor first and save those two unfortunates from their miserable life.”
——
About why Eltoril floats above the Nine Hells without falling.
Because the Nine Hells have a very special terrain feature, which is very repellent to foreign planes.
The nine hells began to break out of the bottomless abyss, and there is still no precise explanation of how the bottomless abyss was formed.
However, the most likely theory is that the endless planes of the bottomless abyss are formed by the accumulation of fragments of the world that once died, so it stands to reason that the nine levels of hell that originated from the bottomless abyss It is said that there should be such inclusiveness.
However, it is not.
In order to free the Nine Hells from the Abyss and prevent them from being captured again by the Abyss, Asmodeus used a certain ability to completely change the nature of the Nine Hells. .
The plane will independently exclude all lands that are not within the scope of the Nine Hells, which means that if the Nine Hells want to expand, contracts alone are not enough.
It must be anchored through a contract to determine its ownership, and then send it to hell through some method, and then firmly fix it with chains to prevent it from being repelled by the plane characteristics of the Nine Hells into the infinite. In the void.
Then the devils slowly harvest it or directly pull the chains and sink it into the River Styx until it is completely stuck to the water of the River Styx.
In this way, the Nine Hells can achieve the purpose of annexing the land and converting people's souls to the maximum extent.
