Chapter 275 The Duke’s Will
Nohir first learned about what happened here during his absence through Ska.
A few hours ago, when Nohir was trying to use his unique advantages to eliminate the remaining demons, Ska and his team were not idle either.
In the early stages of the entire operation, they took advantage of the unpreparedness of the devil's army and suddenly joined the battlefield from the side and rear. With thunderous actions, they crippled the remaining devil's formation, causing them to pathetically retreat to their base camp.
After that, when they received the message from Tavis, they spent a lot of time cleaning up the hidden threats around the military camp.
Minsk contributed the most in this process. No matter before or after, in order to ensure the success of the plan when dealing with the devil, he not only turned on the berserk, but also asked Ska to bless him with acceleration. It was precisely for various reasons that Let that group of devils escape so completely.
And he was not idle when he was wrapping up the mess. It was precisely because of being so busy that this physical monster collapsed to the ground from exhaustion. The reason why the consultant drove Minsk away was just to stop him from forcing himself.
After that, Nohir looked at the Grand Duke of Ravengard again. Nohir was actually very curious. At this time, they had been in hell for more than a day, and after most of the dangers had been eliminated, The advisor should also have time to use meditation to restore his spell slot, which means that the current Grand Duke should have been able to leave this mud pit long ago, but now he is still here.
The Duke saw his doubts, and just when he wanted to explain, Ska took the lead in answering Nohill's question on the Duke's behalf. And with Ska's explanation, Nohill also understood He asked why the Duke hadn't left yet, and cast an admiring look at the Duke.
Uld Revengard, as the supreme leader of Baldur's Gate, he actually has no reason to worry about the life and death of the city. The reason why he took over the supreme command when the city fell was rights and guide people to fight against the devils. The fundamental reason is nothing more than forced by form.
Now that the city is temporarily safe, it stands to reason that he has done his best to achieve this step. Even if he leaves now, others will not say anything, but just when Advisor Florrick wants to persuade the Grand Duke to leave, Ur However, De actively refused, on the grounds that he could not leave these warriors who trusted him at this moment and run away in despair alone. Afterwards, he will live in shame for the rest of his life.
“You want me to abandon my personal guards, abandon my comrades, abandon the soldiers who are fighting with me, and let me evacuate from this crisis alone? Old friend, you should understand clearly. This is impossible. "
The Grand Duke said this, and Advisor Florrick also wanted to persuade him, because the situation in Baldur's Gate at this time is not very optimistic, although the overall situation is still relatively stable. At this time, Baldur's Gate lacks a backbone. If the backbone is gone, Baldur's Gate will never be peaceful. This backbone is the Duke.
But even if the Grand Duke has learned about the current form of Baldur's Gate, his thoughts have not changed at all. It is better to say that he feels more at ease.
The betrayal of Duke Vansample is certainly heartbreaking, but now that the biggest poisonous snake has been exposed, the threat she can bring is naturally greatly reduced. Fansample has been arrested M'Pur has been unable to make any waves, and without this biggest threat, the murderous followers who have been wreaking havoc in Baldur's Gate are nothing to worry about. Those guys are a stubborn disease. Although their existence has brought a steady stream of pain to the city, this kind of small fight is not enough to subvert Baldur's Gate, and the Duke knows very well Even if you go back, you won't be able to help the current situation. In this case, it is better to focus all your attention on the current dangerous situation.
No, that’s not quite right. At least the description of danger is no longer appropriate. At this time, everyone has made extraordinary progress, and many powerful allies have gathered around them, including two A legendary hero, this gave the Grand Duke hope, and not just the hope of saving Eltoril.
The Grand Duke knew that although he was inexplicably involved in this dangerous situation, danger also meant opportunities. The Duke determined that if Eltoril could really return to the main material plane, with this After this experience, the problems that have been bothering him before may be completely solved.
Because of his and everyone's activity, if this incident can really end, Eltoril, who has returned to the main material plane, will become Baldur's Gate's strongest ally, not to mention the current surroundings. With this group of heroes around him, the Grand Duke even felt that he was witnessing the birth of a legend. Of course, he was not willing to leave just like that. What was the point of doing that other than gaining notoriety?
Although continuing to stay in hell only requires taking all kinds of unknown risks, the Duke is willing to take a gamble. The most important thing is that the Duke does not think that he will lose the gamble.
Nohill was naturally unaware of the Duke's specific thoughts, but this did not prevent him from applauding the Duke's brave behavior.
You must know that hell is not a tourist attraction. This ghost place is extremely dangerous, especially the hell where a bloody battle in the abyss is breaking out. There may be a huge bolide flying straight towards this place in the next moment. Come and blow up everyone in the city.
As the supreme leader of Baldur's Gate, the Grand Duke actually dares to risk his life to stay here. Such behavior has to be admired.

After that, when Nohill finally understood the key information during this period, everyone finally returned to the topic and began to discuss the next steps and direction of action.
Although the city has been temporarily liberated at this time, it does not mean that everything is over. There are still a lot of problems before everyone, including but not limited to collecting food, finding drinking water sources, settling the wounded, and gathering The bodies of the fallen, looking for survivors scattered around the city, etc.
These problems are all major issues that must be resolved as soon as possible. If there is a slight delay, it may affect the precarious stability of the city. However, thanks to the actions of Nohill and his team, the largest city in the city is now The threat has been completely eliminated.
They now have enough time to solve these problems step by step, so everyone quickly turned the topic of the meeting to a more serious topic, that is, about the subsequent life and death of the city.
