Ordinary fantasy adventure in Faerûn

Chapter 391 The whole conspiracy
"Asdalen, his heart has become dark and broken. Even if I help him get revenge, help him defeat Calzado and set him free, he will not quietly let go of his hatred and embrace a new life from now on."

"More than two centuries of torture have turned him into a polite madman. The kindness and morality that the world admires have become not only unworthy of mention in his eyes, but even despised and disgusted from the bottom of his heart. In some ways, he has become exactly like Calzado."

Only by sucking the blood of others can he nourish his withered body, and only by seeing the pain of others can his cruel heart be pleased.

In the game, only by going through countless adventures with Asdalen and developing a deep bond with him in times of crisis can you change his mind, allowing him to break the cycle of slavery and hatred and move toward the path of [transcendence].

"It is definitely not something that can be changed overnight if you want to change him now. In this reality, I even doubt whether Asdalen who can surpass the line will exist."

“If I were him, would I really be able to maintain my original intention after more than 200 years of torture?
"Do I really have to choose between gaining the power to control my life from now on, and never having to worry about being oppressed by other powerful slaves, or giving up the power to control this time just to avoid slaughtering 7000 innocent victims, most of whom I don't even know?"

Noshir shook his head. He couldn't do it. He was very sure of that. If Asdalen was replaced by himself, when the chance to change his life was right in front of him, he would never seize that opportunity at all costs, even if it meant sacrificing more than 7000 vampire derivatives transformed from innocent citizens.

"I'm not sure I can do this now, but I can't just leave him alone. I have to think of a way. How can I solve this dilemma?"

Noshier lay on the bed, looking at the night sky outside through the window, and fell into deep thought. As his original teammate, he couldn't just leave Asdeln alone even if he had more tricks.

If he didn't know Asdalen's past experiences and hadn't experienced so many adventures with him in the game, Noshir wouldn't have been so idle as to do such a thankless task. But the fact is that he knew all this. It was impossible for him to treat Asdalen as an ordinary vampire spawn and then chop him down with an axe when he met him.

Despite their many personality differences, he still has the possibility of becoming a better person, and his downfall is only due to despair. In the game, Noshir once asked him why he became like this, and Asdalen only gave one answer, which is that no hero would care about a rat in the gutter like him, so all that is left for him is despair.

"…Maybe saving him won't be as difficult as I thought. Maybe just a good start can bring about a miracle?"

"Alas, I always feel that it won't be that simple. But I'll talk about this matter after I return to Baldur's Gate. If nothing unexpected happens, Gotash should have come up with a plan for the Supreme God recently. Maybe it's already in the implementation stage. I have to concentrate on killing them first."

The Supreme God Plan has already been implemented. This possibility is still very high. After all, no matter how the timeline in the original novel develops, since he has returned with Eltoril, Gortash and his team will definitely speed up the progress of the plan. Otherwise, when the Grand Duke returns to Baldur's Gate and integrates the power of the entire city, it will be difficult for them to secretly do things in Baldur's Gate. "But even if the plan is already in the implementation stage, their progress cannot be too fast, because this plan itself is too huge, and the preliminary preparations alone will take a long time. Even if they implement the Supreme God Plan immediately after getting the crown back, their progress cannot be too high, and they cannot bring out this plan at the beginning."

"The three gods of death in the game want to rely on the Supreme God Plan to directly create a god with the qualifications of a true god in the main material plane, and use the Nether Gem to turn the Supreme God into their own subordinate god, and then use this subordinate god to accomplish a series of goals."

"But this plan was not proposed by them. It was Gotash's idea from beginning to end. Without the great blueprint of the Illithid, even Gotash would not have thought of this plan. And if there was no mastermind under the Tower of the Moon, their plan would be impossible to implement."

Wait, this seems a bit too coincidental, doesn't it? If these plans were just a coincidence under the influence of the Three Gods of Death, it would be fine, but this idea was obviously not thought up by the Three Gods of Death. If the mastermind behind the Supreme God's plan is not the Three Gods of Death, then who is it?

"Baal wants to slaughter the world, Bane wants to rule the world, and Melkor wants to fill the world with undead. The three gods of death have different goals, and even conflict with each other. But those are issues they need to consider after the birth of the Supreme God. Before that, they will remain allies until the final fight for control of the Supreme God, when they will completely turn against each other."

"But in the game, since the Supreme God was defeated, the Three Gods of Death never developed to the stage of fighting for control of the Mastermind, and their goal naturally failed."

“But if, if their plan succeeds, then a tragic conflict will inevitably break out between the three gods of death. Only the final winner can gain control of the Supreme God, and then use the power of the Supreme God to flatten the entire world.”

"And this process will inevitably bring chaos. Perhaps chaos is what the real mastermind wants to see. The chaos in the world can benefit him. Considering where the crown was obtained and the inexplicable change in its function... the mastermind behind this incident could not be the forces of Hell again, right?"

Noshil felt that this possibility was very high. Mephisto was the most powerful wizard in the entire Nine Hells. It was ridiculous to say that someone could steal something from him. Maybe the crown itself was a bait released by Mephisto. Maybe he didn't know what consequences this bait would eventually cause, but the only thing he was sure of was that this thing would definitely cause great chaos.

"These are troubled times. Even if I foil this conspiracy, won't the events caused by the crown itself end? Do I have to go back to hell to find out what all this is all about?"
