Chapter 71 Requesting Information
Palestine left with the rest of the Flame Fist, and the corpses were still there. Others will come to clean up after a while. They must first bring the living body back to Feilongyan Fortress for strict inspection. Guard.
As for these corpses, it is not important. Although there is a spell called conversation with the dead in this world, which can be used to obtain information from the mouths of the dead, the process of killing the people Nohir killed is really It was so brutal that these corpses had completely lost the ability to make sounds.
He was chopped with a flying axe, decapitated, his chest was blasted, and half of his head was hammered to pieces. Now the only one who can get some information from the corpse's mouth is the one whose arms were cut off. The shapeshifter changed, and Palestine also took the body and left first.
Nohir looked at the few Flame Fist soldiers who stayed behind. Their armors were bright, their weapons were sharp, and their discipline was strict. Even if their leader left, they still guarded the door conscientiously. Doubt is the real elite.
One soldier spontaneously left the team and came to the door to disperse the curious people. The other man followed him with a weapon, keeping an eye on any signs of trouble. Nohill called on the remaining two soldiers to help him bring the store manager and the others to the door. Move to the vent, bandage their wounds to stop the bleeding, and at the same time ask a Flame Fist to go to the Temple of Mercy in Livington to find one of his companions.
After the elite Flame Fist nodded, he turned around and handed over the task to the Flame Fist who came from another team. Two people from that team went to Livington, and the rest They maintain order outside the store.
“Our first priority is to protect you. This is a direct order from the Palestinian master. We will respect and meet your secondary requirements, but your safety is the first priority now, so please Try not to leave our sight."
The soldier said to Nohir, and what could Nohir say?
Nohir: "...I'm just a little surprised that there are still people in Flame Fist who are so dedicated to their duties."
Soldier: "We are the direct guard of the Lord of Palestine, and we are by no means comparable to ordinary soldiers."
The soldier proudly answered this question.
Nohir: "Then I hope you can give me some private space later. I have something to talk to the boss about."
Soldier: "Okay, we will guard this place. Entrance, please feel free to do so.”
Nohill: “Thank you.”
Ten minutes later, the paralyzed people gradually recovered.
"Uh, ha! Those damn! Despicable bastards! Somi wants to chop off their heads!"
"Tai Yin too!"
The best physique The two half-orc bodyguards got rid of the paralysis effect first. They covered their wounds and got up, cursing those damn assassins together, followed by the two dwarves and half-elves.
"Bless Selune, I thought I was dead, thank you! Friends from the Green Garden."
"I am Gerardus (half-elf), and I am happy to serve you."
The half-elf said to Nohir gracefully, while the other dwarf roared somewhat rudely.
"My arm! It seems that I can't move it recently. I am Sonos. Thank you very much for your help."
"Somi also thanks you for your help. ”
“Tai Yin too”
Nohill just waved his hand in a friendly manner. Although the process was thrilling, he did not suffer any injuries in this operation and there were no casualties, so he personally did not have any strong feelings. He just felt that after the fight, he felt better. readily.
"Father of the dwarves, it's so crazy. I thought those people were guests, but he came up and gave me a knife! Those damn lunatics!"
This adventure supplies store The manager of the store, Ensor Danseron, also regained control of his body. He first cursed the fright he had received today, venting the fear in his heart in this way.
But the store manager and the others are all old Bode people after all. In this dangerous city, the risk of death is always present. Danger is the norm, so they quickly regained their former composure. "Thank you very much, young man. Without you, who knows what kind of misfortune we would have suffered today?"
After Ensor finished speaking, he glanced at the flame fist guarding the door, and then waved to Nohir, motioning them to go to the next room to talk.
Nohir followed Ensor to the room, accompanied by Geradus and Sonos, who were also harpers. Somi and Tyin, two big orcs, walked directly from the side. They each picked up a giant ax from the weapon rack, and then stood guard at the door.
Ensor pulled out a few chairs, motioned for everyone to sit down and said to Nohir.
"Although I have said it before, I still want to thank you again for your kindness. You saved our lives. We will definitely repay this kindness and swear in the name of Moradin, the father of the dwarves."< br>
Ensor's voice was firm, so Nohir didn't say anything to dampen the mood, but just nodded and agreed to the promise.
The half-elf Gerardus said to Nohir.
"By the way, you said you came to the Harpers for help before, but the Green Garden should know that the Harpers have already rushed to Eltoril. I'm afraid we can't provide too much manpower. Big help can only provide some information."
Nohill: "In fact, what I need is intelligence support."
Nohill then explained to them in detail. He explained to them his purpose of coming to Baldur's Gate, explained to them his identity as a fugitive from Eltoril, and revealed some of his doubts to them.
"In short, that's it. I suspect that Eltoril has a mole, and this mole has already escaped to Baldur's Gate."
"The evidence is the recent disappearance of the Grand Duke of Ravengard. I need to know who in Baldur's Gate contributed the most to the Grand Duke's mission to visit Eltoril?"
Two people? The Harpers looked at each other, and Nohir saw in their eyes that something was not simple, so he asked them.
“You seem to know something, can you tell me?”
Gerardus hesitated for a while, and then decided to say to Nohir.
“In fact, there has been such speculation within the Harpers, but due to the regulations of Baldur’s Gate, we have almost no members of the organization in the upper city, so we are not very clear about this information. .”
"There are only three other dukes who have the ability to influence the Grand Duke, but the other three dukes are all very capable people. Their whereabouts are kept secret very well. Even the Harpers' intelligence network cannot accurately detect them. The trends, coupled with our relatively loose organization, we often cannot detect the really high-end secrets."
The dwarf Sonos said at this time.
“But we still have intelligence sources. Our leader, Ms. Jahira, knows a very dangerous person. A few days ago, she wanted to go to her for help, but that person refused to help us.”
This person should be Nine Finger Keen, the boss of the Baldur's Gate Thieves Guild, and he seems to have some unclear relationship with Jaheira.
"And just when we lost clues in our investigation, your Master Harsin from the Green Woodland suddenly sent us a message."
"It seems that the devil has withdrawn its troops. Now Avernus has started a new round of bloody battles. The leaders of many forces and organizations have rushed to the main fortress of the Lord of the Dawn. They are now discussing how to take this opportunity to take back El Toriel."
Geradus immediately answered excitedly.
“Many famous people have gone. The Archmage Silvera of Candlekeep, the Archmage Traxigo, the Griffin Knights of Waterdeep City have already set off for the fortress, and the Archmage of Neverwinter City The gray robe guards are preparing for war."
"Ms. Jaheira has also passed. Maybe we shouldn't worry about this. After all, if they can't save the city, what can we do?"
