Ordinary fantasy adventure in Faerûn

Chapter 360 Planning Action
In less than 15 minutes, the news that the Noshir team had returned to Eltoril had spread throughout the holy city. After another 15 minutes, the conference room in the Supreme Hall was filled with representatives from all parties.

The remaining leaders of the army, the survivors of the temple, the leaders of the Civilian Self-Help Association, and the heads of small noble families who did not die in the meteor explosion. Before today, these people had different identities and might never meet each other in their entire lives, but now, they are united to fight against this horrible natural and man-made disaster. Now, they sit here, full of expectation and hope.

Everyone hoped that Noshir would bring good news. The harsh and dangerous environment of hell was constantly tormenting their spirits. The dim sky seemed to be announcing their future fate. Although people had tried their best to cheer up, there was hardly any hope.

Especially after they knew that Tavis Craig had betrayed them, that day, all the Eltoril people felt incomparable shock, pain and confusion in their hearts. But after that, Duke Ravengard summoned all the surviving Eltoril people and tried Tavis Craig, who had turned into a demon, in front of them.

Afterwards, the Grand Duke told them all the truth, and they learned a name, Noshir Temariti.

Many people in the Holy City knew the name of this Tiefling. They had all more or less heard of a flying boy in the outer city. A month ago, he was just an artist who made a living by performing in the outer city, but now everyone knew that he was their savior!
Discover the truth! Catch the evil leader! Return to hell! Bring strong reinforcements! Even after he has done this, he did not stop! In order to find a way to save the city, he even chose to take the initiative to go to the depths of hell! Take the initiative to face the unforeseen danger!
Some people doubted the authenticity of this matter, but Duke Ravengard swore on his life and faith that every word he said was true!

In times of crisis, people always seek heroes! Noshir, who has done so many heroic deeds, has undoubtedly met this standard! When the Grand Duke was willing to swear an oath with his life and faith, Noshir had become the hope in their hearts!

And today, hope is back!
In the solemn environment of the conference room, Noshir and his group walked in slowly.

He looked up and around, and wherever he looked, people's eyes were filled with hope and admiration, or simply with an incomparable complex expression.

Noshier felt the meaning contained in that gaze, but he was mentally prepared and did not get nervous. He walked straight to the center of the crowd.

After that, without any hesitation or extra words, he simply told everyone the news they wanted to know most.

Noshir told them that he had found the contract that bound the city. The contract was located in the companion sun above their heads, and a high-level angel was bound inside it.

Now all they have to do is break the big black ball above their heads, find and destroy the contract, and release the angel as well.

After saying this, Nosher found a place to sit down. He knew that the news he brought was too bizarre and people would definitely not accept it immediately, so he just waited silently for everyone to digest the news, and the facts were exactly as he expected.

Almost as soon as he sat down, the entire conference room exploded. Everyone was shocked by the news. Everyone knew that it was the sun in the sky that brought them to this hell, but because of this, they were in the dark and would never imagine that the antidote to save the city was also in that sun!

A full three minutes passed after the shock, and with Duke Ravengard's efforts to maintain order, everyone was able to regain their composure and finally begin a more detailed discussion.

Noshier said to the calmed crowd, "Does everyone understand the current situation? We now know the whereabouts of the contract, and what we need to do next is very simple, which is to find a way to open the sun above, find and destroy the contract, and rescue the angel inside, and then seek the angel's help to cut the chains that bind the city."

"Break the contract, and the demons will not be able to threaten your souls. Cut the chains, and the city will float to the astral world under the characteristics of hell itself. If we can complete the above two steps, we will be almost safe."

Everyone nodded.

“The steps sound simple.”

"Great! This way we can all be saved!"

"Yes, that's great, but...Noshir, can I call you that?"

"Please feel free to do so."

The person who spoke to Noshir was a nobleman named Fesnando. He was a great noble who survived the day when the city fell into hell. He held the title of Marquis. Although his family had been destroyed now, he was not defeated by this tragic setback and remained cautious and calm.

Even until now, he still maintained good etiquette and demeanor. As a nobleman, he was thoughtful and thoughtful, so he was not as blindly optimistic as others, but began to ask some detailed questions.

"Thank you. What I want to ask is, if we do as you planned, the city will eventually drift to the astral plane. I'm sorry, I don't know where that is. I just follow my instinct. I instinctively feel that we should not let our city drift into the sky. Will there be danger in that so-called astral plane? Can people like us live in that world? How long will it take for us to get out of there and return to our home in the main material plane?"

Before Noshir could speak, advisor Florrick beside him stood up and answered the noble's question.

"Please don't worry about the Astral Plane, Marquis Fesnando. As a wizard, I have some knowledge of the Astral Plane. Although I have to admit that there are indeed countless and numerous dangers in the Astral Plane, we should not encounter these threats because we are in the Nine Layers of Hell."

“The unique geographical location of Hell will put us in the Outer Astral Plane after we get out. It will be difficult for us to encounter those dangerous astral beasts there, and we will hardly encounter other astral residents. After all, we came out of Hell, which means that the Outer Astral Plane we reach must be very close to Hell. Even the astral residents will not rashly meet with the creatures of Hell, oh, except for the Githyanki.”

“Those astral pirates might be hanging around here. After all, their Queen Vlaakis has signed a treaty with the Five-Headed Dragon Queen. The Evil Dragon Queen will hand over a group of young red dragons under her command to the Githyanki every once in a while. If we accidentally catch up with that time, we might indeed encounter those astral pirates, but this is a low-probability event. Our luck should not be that bad.”
