Ordinary fantasy adventure in Faerûn

Chapter 107 Illusion

The ears of Shui Shui, who was lying down and resting at the door, suddenly moved. He was well prepared and did not make any suspicious move after hearing those words. He just stretched his body, yawned and then continued to lie down. There was no more movement there.

Nohir had made an agreement with it before that he would only need it to act when he needed help. As for other times, it only needed to be on standby in the manor at any time.

-

Nohir also started taking action after delivering the message. With the help of the concealment cloak, his whole body merged with the darkness. This magic cloak completely covered his figure in the shadows.

Nohill circled around the alley outside the manor. Using the shadows in the alley, he successfully detoured under the wall at the northwest corner of the manor. Behind him was the stable. Although his destination was right behind him, At this time, you cannot directly climb over the wall and enter inside.

The design of the second half of the Duke's manor is different from the front door. The second half of the manor completely ignores the spear-shaped fences, and instead uses bricks and stones to build a five-meter-high wall. This stable is also connected with the one behind it. The walls are closely connected, and if you climb over here, you can only climb to the roof, and that will be directly exposed to the sight of those little devils.

Although the darkness of Shar tonight covers the light of Selûne, those cunning little things can still see through the cover of night by relying on dark vision. Although this magic cloak can completely integrate themselves with the darkness when they are not moving. It is in one piece, but some flaws will still be revealed once it starts to move.

You have to temporarily divert the attention of the two little devils who can only observe this place before you can sneak in, and this is not difficult for you.

-

The location chosen by Nohill was very good. Only two little devils could observe the stable from their perspective. One of the two devils was squatting on a tree near the building, while the other was firmly on the ground. Sitting firmly by the fountain in front of the stable.

At this time, these two little devils were a little listless. They had not found any fun all day, and boredom filled their hearts. However, due to the contract, they must obey the order and stay here, but they Their evil nature is constantly instigating them to do what the devil should do.

"How long do I have to wait for this torture to end? I need my soul, I long for promotion! But now I am forced to squat in this disgusting place until it rots and grows maggots, oh, and there is this damn water! I hate water! "

"I'm so hungry! I want to eat something, like a pigeon. The fresh guts of a pigeon are great, but those stupid birds haven't been here for a long time."

"The mistress asked us to hunt by ourselves, but there was no food at all. Oh, mistress, even in hell, we will not let the devils in the devil army go hungry. Your behavior like this will definitely send you to hell! "

Want to eat pigeons?

"Cuckoo!"

The pigeon's voice suddenly sounded out of nowhere. When the two little devils who were thinking about it heard the voice, their tired spirits were instantly refreshed. They immediately looked left and right, looking for the precious toy and the sweet dinner. .

"rustle."

There was a sudden rustling in the bushes at the corner of the manor, and the human guards were not here for the time being. With such a God-given opportunity, the two little devils immediately flapped their wings and flew away from the garrison, towards the direction of the bushes.

Their mistress only allows them to leave their guard positions when hunting for food and fighting foreign enemies, and they are absolutely not allowed to be discovered by any humans when hunting, so they must act quickly, but in addition to time constraints, the more important reason is One dove is not enough for two devils.

Nohill immediately seized this opportunity. He spread his wings and glided across the roof of the stable like a bat as nimbly as a bat. He grabbed the eaves with both hands and floated into the building through the fully open window. The whole process was silent. The sound was so fast that even the resting horses inside didn't notice a black figure standing next to them.

Nohill did not choose to disturb these horses. If he woke them up at this time, he might have to spend a lot of time to stabilize them and not make any noise. In fact, there was a high possibility that the soothing would fail.

If these horses are really awakened, the movement caused will definitely attract those little devils again. At that time, it is obviously impossible for me to use thaumaturgy to make strange noises to lure them away. After all, thaumaturgy emits Those little devils are just empty illusions. As long as those little devils are not too stupid, they will not be fooled a second time, so they want to be safe. Nohir took out a small bottle from the medicine belt, which contained Breath of Vigneon.

There is a small black pill in the bottle. This pill can emit a powerful paralyzing gas. Just pulling out the cap and placing it next to the target's nose is enough to knock down most ordinary creatures. The most important thing is this gas. Also completely tasteless.

This was specially prepared by Nohill in order to cope with the current situation. He still bought it from the Witchcraft Grocery Store. The little salesperson gave himself a friendly price and bought such one for only 15 gold coins. A gadget that can be used multiple times.

Nohir held his breath, pulled out the stopper, and placed it in front of each horse for a few seconds, then immediately covered it and put it away. The gas that this pill can emit is limited, and the effect of medicine similar to today's is probably still limited. Can be reused two or three times.

Vignean's Breath took effect very quickly. The big guys who were sleeping upright suddenly began to lose their legs. Nohir immediately supported them one by one in order and let them lie down on the ground.

With 20 points of strength, he can easily support these behemoths, and with this guarantee, there is no need to worry too much when Ska comes in later.

"Good, so far so good, now it's time to find the secret door."

Nohir turned around and looked around at the layout of the stable. In addition to the four horses, there was a forging platform in the middle of the house. There was also a pile of forged horseshoes stacked on the stone forging platform. It seemed that the tail The unknown building I saw before is just like this.

Nohir chose to use the forging platform as an anchor point to search for the entrance to the cellar. Relying on his almost perfect sense of direction, he quickly found the location that his tail had explored before.

Sweeping away the floating soil with his hands, Nohir could already tell that after seeing the whole picture, it was the door frame of a cellar, a trap door covered by floating soil. It seemed that the bottom was really connected to the basement.

After confirming this, he breathed a sigh of relief. This can be said to be the best situation. The location of this hidden door can be said to be very convenient. It should be easy to sneak or evacuate.

After discovering this, he did not choose to leave first. Instead, he carefully opened the trap door and went down to see what the structure was inside. If the space inside was very small, then Nohill did not intend to let Scar. Had a trip.

Carefully opening the lid of the trap door and placing it on the ground, Nohir leaned his back against one wall, supported the other wall with his legs, and slowly moved downwards while supporting the wall with his feet.

He lowered his head and looked down, and only then did he realize that the height of this secret passage might be nearly ten meters deep.

This depth doesn't look like it leads to a basement. It's more like a well than a basement. Damn it, no one really made the manhole cover of the well into a trap door style, right?

This possibility made him feel speechless for a while. If this was really the case, wouldn't it be completely unnecessary for him to prepare so carefully and even turn over several horses for it?

"No, according to Crown's perception, the height of those devils should be the same as the ground of the sewer. However, the height of the sewer from the ground is only five meters at most. It is impossible to have a drop of nearly half."

Is it a cover-up? Forget it, we'll find out if we walk a little further down or not.

He put away his distracting thoughts and continued to move slowly downward, and just when he moved to about the middle position, the foot that Nohir was leaning towards the wall suddenly stepped on the air.

The momentary feeling of weightlessness almost made him fall, but his long-term flying experience and extraordinary agility allowed him to quickly balance his body. He immediately dragged the wall behind him with his arms, and then straightened his legs.

This unexpected situation startled him, and Nohir immediately used his dim vision to carefully observe the small section of the wall that had begun to ripple.

"Illusion spell?"
