Chapter 147 Rescue the Hostages
After conveying these orders through the helmet, Nohir said directly to Scar.
“The operation over there went very smoothly. Not only did they clear the road, I also asked Tavis to use his natural spellcasting ability to control two cultists to work as coolies, so we don’t have to stay here to move things. , just go and save people.”
Nohir explained to Ska what had just happened, but Ska asked after being silent for a while.
"...I have never heard of any control spell that can be so powerful. Nohill, are you sure this helmet can support you to complete such an operation?"
After hearing Scar's question, Nohir thought about it, and then explained to Scar.
"Well, I guess you mean that you are worried that this control chain like a matryoshka doll will get out of control? Don't worry, it won't, although I do not have the ability to control those controlled by Tavis. cultist, but I can completely control Tavis. Now I am like a feudal monarch. As long as I can control my own vassals, I can rule the entire kingdom safely. ”
“… ...An interesting metaphor, but even this is outrageous. How effective is the control spell attached to the helmet that can achieve this level?”
Although Nohill’s explanation is to a certain extent? This dispelled Ska's worries, but the overly powerful effect of this equipment still made Ska start to have doubts about Nohir's equipment.
Although he didn't know the specific function of this helmet before, but judging from the current effect, it is a bit too strong. Such a powerful equipment is not suitable for the items that the devil can hold. grade.
But when faced with Ska's questions, Nohir couldn't tell the truth, especially when there was a demigod devil next to him, so he could only speak vaguely.
“Hmm, yeah, I estimate that the actual effect is at least seven levels, but it seems that because this spell is specifically targeted at evil spirits, I estimate that the actual effectiveness has reached the effect of an ordinary eight-level control spell, that’s why it looks like this Outrageous, cough, in short, there is no need to worry about him losing control. Okay, okay, let’s go, don’t delay, we still have hostages to rescue.”
Nohir directly pushed Sika out of the room. interrupted his question, and although Ska saw Nohir's concealment, he did not ask more questions out of trust, only the hidden lord was itching in his curious heart.
——
The two of them walked along the tunnel, but just when they were about to turn towards the dormitory, they changed directions and continued walking for a while before coming to the last one. The room where Suma was.
Nohir relied on the method he used to deal with Qislin before to pry open the door lock, while Ska directly picked up the war hammer, and the divine power suddenly emerged, quietly assassinating the last bearded demon in the dungeon.
Well, use the Record of Light to hammer him into ashes with a direct blow, quickly and silently, without leaving any corpses, it is really a perfect assassination.
After dealing with the devil, they immediately turned to the accommodation of the group of cultists. Fortunately for them, they didn't meet anyone along the way and arrived here smoothly.
Standing at the door of the dormitory, Nohir put his sharp ears to the door. As he approached, he heard some movement inside. Now he wanted to confirm how many people were inside?
"...Two silver coins, now you two are the only ones left, dice or stop?"
"Dice! This time the space is very big, we must die! We must make back the capital with profits!"

"3, 5, 6, tsk tsk, what a bad luck. Well, it’s just past 21 o’clock, you’re out!”
“Haha! Stop complaining and get the money!”
Nohir withdrew his ears when he heard this. It sounded like the cultists inside were playing a game called Baldur's Bone, which is a dice gambling game popular in major taverns in Baldur's Gate. When Blushing Mermaid stayed at the hotel, the gamblers inside often played this game, so Nohir knew the rules of the game.
If you want to play this game, you must have at least one person as the dealer. In addition to the dealer, there must be at least three people to make up the main number of people in a game. In other words, there are at least four people in it, and no more at most. There will be more than six people. This number can be beaten, and they are still unwary.
After confirming this, Nohill immediately made a gesture to Scar to indicate that he could attack by force. However, after making the gesture, Nohill approached again and tried to use the power inside to The noise masks the sound of lock picking.
This time Nohir did not use his claws, but a small iron bar he picked up on the road. With this thing, it would be easier for him to pry open such an ordinary lock. , it took less than five seconds for the lock to be pried open, and at the moment when it was pried open, he did not rush in directly, but immediately took a few steps back to the left.
Because behind Nohill, Ska was ready to go. He held the Shield of the Hidden Lord tightly with his right hand, and also held the Record of Light with his left hand and stepped back a sufficient distance. At this time, he would lower his center of gravity to the lowest, ready to charge at any time, and just after Nohill pried open the lock and left the charging route, he directly supported the shield and slammed open the iron door!
At this time, on a small round table in the center of the room, the four cultists who were gambling all turned their heads subconsciously after hearing the sound. When they saw a knight charging towards them with all his strength, the expressions on their faces The golden masks blocked their stunned expressions, and their body postures still maintained the carnival mood of the previous moment, but in fact, they were all frightened and stunned by this sudden accident.
However, when they were stunned, Ska didn't stop. He didn't pause after slamming open the iron door. He rushed directly in front of them without even a second. Not only did he not stop in the middle Crash the table, and the shield held up by his right hand directly knocked over the cultist at the front, followed by a large swing with his left hand, the Record of Light directly followed the trajectory and blasted the left The heads of two cultists.
At this time, the last remaining cultist was so frightened that he slipped off his chair and collapsed to the ground. However, his own will to survive finally allowed him to barely regain control of his body, so He screamed strangely and immediately turned around, trying to get up and escape from this place, but before he could fully get up, he was hit by a flying ax from Nohir in the back.
The next step was the last-ditch session. Ska walked directly towards the unlucky guy who was knocked unconscious by the shield, and killed him with a hammer, while Nohir also walked towards the man who was hit by the flying axe. He didn't even need a last-ditch attack. His attack was so powerful and heavy that the ax almost burst out of his chest. This kind of injury was undoubtedly fatal.
Nohir stepped forward, stepped on the corpse, pulled out the ax, and then wiped the blood on the ax with the black cloak of the cultists. After nodding to Scar, the two continued to move in. Go.
Nohir continued walking inside until he opened the back door of the dormitory. After exiting the dormitory, he walked left and entered a tunnel. At the end of the tunnel was the dungeon where the hostages were held.
Nohir first raised his hand to signal Scar not to move forward for the time being, and to stay where he was and guard the rear. He then raised his double ax and slowly moved forward until he entered the archway of the dungeon.
Nohir did not see any other hostile creatures except the four cultists. At this time, there were only a few dirty and pitiful hostages in front of him. These people were separated by iron bars on both sides. Inside the fence, the environment is very bad. There is no bed except for the hostage himself, only a urinal and a haystack.
Nohir saw two middle-aged men, a middle-aged woman and a young woman. Almost all of them were injured. Some hostages even fell into a coma, while the awake people were After seeing Nohir, almost all of them showed visible fear.
"Oh, I know what you are thinking. You think I am a devil, specially coming to torture you, but as long as you take a closer look at my skin color, you will understand that I am not a devil."
"My name is Nohir, and my race is Tiefling. I was investigating a big case recently, and I happened to find this place, and then discovered some shady secrets. At this time, the guard at the door had been solved by me and my companions. So don’t worry.”
“You are safe.”
