Chapter 88 Duke Vansample's Residence
Ska nodded firmly when he heard this. Although he didn't understand the Gond believers, he believed in Nohir's judgment.
“I understand, I will definitely test it out in advance when contacting them.”
Nohill breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. He was really worried that Ska wouldn’t be able to I understand his worries. After all, it would be a bit ridiculous to judge possible dangers based solely on other people's attitudes. Scar is not as foresight as he is.
If Scar is willing to believe in himself, then there is nothing to worry about. After all, a tenth-level paladin can barely be considered a strong man in this world. His life experience and Combat experience no longer requires Nohir to talk any more.
"That's good. If this really happens, you can just go back to the room and wait for me to come back after making sure no one is following you."
"As long as our actions tonight go smoothly, we won't have to be so timid in the future. "
"Eat something now, remember the location, and we will set off in five minutes."
——
Five minutes later, Nohir changed his feet. He put on his iron boots, put on the elf's cloak of concealment, hung the crown of dominance on his belt, and headed to the upper city first.
He walked west along the street, directly to the main wall of the upper city, and then walked southwest along the city wall. After walking under the shadow of the city wall for more than half an hour, Nohir finally arrived at Baldur's End. The most famous location of the gate.
That is [Baldur's Gate], the gate named after the hero Baldur. As long as you pass through this gate, you can reach the upper city, and the gate behind Baldur's Gate A broad avenue separates the spacious block and the public niche block respectively.
The person guarding the city gate here is no longer wearing a red and yellow smock, with a flaming fist holding a flame on the left chest, but a monitor wearing silver armor with a blue smock underneath. them.
"Stop, sir, I can definitely say that I have never seen you. If you are not a disciple of Zonggui and not their follower, you need to pay five gold coins every time you enter the city. And you must leave before the city gate closes at five o'clock in the afternoon."
A monitor stopped Nohir. The gate to the upper city was not as crowded as the lower city, which allowed these monitors to do so. Directly interrogate people on the spot who do not look like wealthy people or businessmen, and who they feel are strangers.
This is their prerogative, and they use it often.
Nohir did not speak when he heard this, but silently handed over five gold coins. In the upper city area, he did not want to directly display the Burning Secret Token to attract attention yet. The token was really going to work. We have to wait until night. If exposed too early, it may arouse the vigilance of interested people. After all, no one knows who is funding these soldiers guarding the city, and who will these soldiers pass information to behind their backs?
As for flying there directly to save money, that would be too eye-catching. There are many lookouts and powerful magic detection methods on the walls of the upper city. Unless Nohir can become invisible, he will have no choice but to stay there. Go through the city gate honestly.
It’s useless even if he flies up into the clouds, he will come down sooner or later, and during the time he lands, a target as big as himself will be easily discovered. By then, it will be really troublesome. If someone's secretive whereabouts are discovered, they will be directly treated as a spy. At that time, the secret order in hand may not be used.
The monitor soldier took the gold coin, inspected it briefly, and then threw it directly into a large iron box on his right. Then he nodded to Nohir, indicating that he could pass.
Nohir didn't think much about it. He walked directly through Baldur's Gate, the oldest, most inconspicuous, most famous and most respectable city gate.
When passing through this city gate, many outsiders will feel the weight of passing through history, and even Nohill is no exception. Before walking a few steps after passing through the city gate, he Then I directly felt the hustle and bustle coming from the street on the right.
Over there is the spacious neighborhood. Although it is located in the upper city, the spacious neighborhood is crowded with merchants and hawkers from other cities or the lower city. No, it is not correct to say that they are hawkers, because they have the ability to sell in the spacious neighborhood. Those who buy and sell things are at least merchants with small assets, otherwise they cannot afford the high entry fees and savings fees, and this neighborhood is also the only area in Baldur's Gate where it is legal to set up stalls and buy and sell things. According to the laws of Baldur's Gate, all commercial transactions within the city walls must either be conducted within licensed and taxed commercial facilities, or be uniformly managed in the city's most important public space and public market, the Broad Street. .
Every morning, a large number of vendors set up their stalls, and most people will pick up their goods from the porters in the Gray Port. At sunset, merchants or vendors take their unsold goods Return the goods or pay expensive storage fees.
In the intervening hours, the markets in the wide streets were crowded and lively, with merchants hawking spices, furs, jewels, perfumes, and every other luxury item to be found on the continent and beyond, and soothsayers and swindlers close by. They sit there in the hope of squeezing assets from some idiots, and the place becomes deserted at night until it starts to glow with new life again the next morning.
It looked interesting, but that was not Nohir’s destination, so he turned to the left, and based on the map in his mind, he quickly headed towards his destination on the winding streets of Zhongqian Street. OK.
Ten minutes later——
“Is this it? It’s really remote and big enough.”
Nohir stood on the street corner and looked at it. A majestic manor, this manor is already located at the corner of Zhonggang Street, but at the same time it is relatively close to Zhuangtang Street, almost equivalent to being located at the junction between these two neighborhoods.
The manor itself also looks magnificent, with a two-meter-high bottom wall and a three-meter-high spear-shaped fence surrounding this towering stone building.
The entire manor seems to be made entirely of huge stone bricks. From the outside, it seems that the main body of the manor should have four floors, with the highest point being 12 meters high. Nohill also confirmed through visual inspection It was determined that this rectangular wall was at least 500 meters long and I didn't know how wide it was. This was quite a large area.
After Nohir admired for a moment, he got down to business.
“This distance should be considered relatively safe.”
He took off the crown of control hanging from his waist, put it on his head, and began to gradually expand his ability to detect evil spirits with great effect. scope.
Previously, because he was worried about disturbing other powerful demons hiding in Baldur's Gate, he had never turned on this ability of the crown on a large scale, but now that he was so close to the suspected target, Nohir was finally able to use this ability. equipment capabilities.
As the helmet's perception range continues to expand, the harsh noise caused by the disordered mental fluctuations of the surrounding humans also begins to gradually increase. The enchanting ability of this piece of equipment seems to be entirely to spy on the devil's mind, but other creatures The disordered soul fluctuations will interfere with its detection ability.
But fortunately, it was only within this range. Nohill could still bear the harsh noise caused by those soul fluctuations, and when the helmet's perception range finally penetrated into the interior of the manor, and slowly approached the stone building, .
“I’m bored and want to kill something.”
A very clear thought passed directly into Nohir’s mind, and this finally made Nohir determined.
"Haha, it seems I guessed it right."
