Ordinary fantasy adventure in Faerûn

Chapter 413 Speculation
"But Jaheira, isn't this making our mission a little too difficult?"

Just after Jaheira proposed his plan, Leon also gave his suggestions, and it was obvious that Leon did not think that Jaheira's plan could be implemented smoothly.

"We have seen how powerful that Undead Warlord is before. Even Minsk is no match for him, not to mention that he has an unknown number of Undead armies under his command. There are already thousands of resentful souls wandering outside this inn alone."

“Although those resentful souls have been here for a long time before we came here, from this point of view, they don’t seem to be Keseric’s subordinates. But as the chosen one of the God of the Dead, Keseric can easily control the undead in the entire Shadow Curse Land if he wants to. What a huge number that would be.”

"With the addition of the Mind Flayer, we are almost unable to resist its all-pervasive psychic powers. Even if our current mission is just to contain them, I'm afraid we will face great risks. Wouldn't it be too unrealistic for us to stop them here alone?"

Leon's logic was also very clear. When refuting this plan, he also listed all the dangers they would inevitably face if they really implemented this plan.

Judging from the data on paper alone, it seems that what Leon said is correct. Faced with the desperate gap in quantity and quality, it is obviously impossible for the seven of them and a hamster to achieve this point, but...

"I think this plan is very good. Don't underestimate our own strength, Leon. Don't forget everything we did before. We can even drag back the giant city that fell into hell. Now we are just fighting guerrilla warfare from the side to attract the enemy's attention and give Baldur's Gate's main force a chance. No matter how you look at it, the difficulty of this mission is much simpler than our last experience."

In fact, what Noshier said was pure fallacy. Normally, no matter what problem people face, they have to analyze the situation specifically. The actions completed in hell cannot help them make reference in this incident. After all, strictly speaking, these are two different things.

If I really had to choose which one was more difficult...

Facing the army of the Chosen God of the Dead, the Mind Flayers, the Mastermind, and the possible Murder Chosen God head-on, and secretly doing things in Hell, finding powerful external aid, and then taking advantage of the enemy being busy with other things and unable to focus all their energy on themselves, which will allow them to liberate the entire city, the actual difficulty of the former is probably several times higher than the latter!
In hell, Nosher could still use his brain and take advantage of the information gap. With the equipment specifically designed to restrain the devils of hell and his cautious style, he was able to accomplish something big without any danger. But now facing Catheric, it was impossible for them to replicate their previous trip to hell.

If he wanted to defeat Keseric, the only thing he could rely on now was his true strength! But if it came to this aspect of strength, Noshier was now confident that he would not lose to anyone!
That's right, he was so confident! Because of that successful adventure in hell! He received a huge amount of incentive points as a reward, and then he developed in the main material plane for more than half a month. Now Noshier is already extraordinary.

Not only has his profession level reached level 14, unlocking the most powerful core ability of the Savage Heart profession, his personal professional ability alone has increased tremendously. He also carries four pieces of legendary equipment that can enhance his strength in all aspects.

For Noshir, who constantly gained motivation points in adventures and used them to almost completely make up for his own shortcomings, it was not difficult for him to just cooperate with friendly forces to fight guerrilla warfare and contain the enemy! Even if he was serious and tried his best, not to mention containing Kesrick's actions, even if he directly wiped him out and his army, or even directly destroyed the main brain that had not yet evolved into the Nesser Brain, such things would not be impossible for him!

"Noshir, I have never doubted your strength, but the enemy's strength cannot be ignored. In terms of the quality of individual combat power, I am confident that we will never lose to them, but they have an entire Shadow Cursed Land as a backup source of troops."

Although they only explored the Moonrise Tower for less than five minutes, Leon and his team still grasped part of the enemy's military deployment. It was the existence of these undead armies that made Leon extremely pessimistic about this plan.

In the Tower of the Moon, just the outermost part of the tower was filled with countless skeleton warriors and death shepherds who commanded those ordinary skeletons. A large number of ghouls were distributed in teams inside the moat, acting as hounds. Various kinds of spirits of the undead were almost everywhere in all areas of the tower, and they even saw special ghouls that could fly.

There is no doubt that these undead were specially bred, and have been bred to perfection, and have even formed complete ground forces, sky forces and even spellcasting forces!

"There is such an endless army without fear. If we want to contain them, we can only attack their leadership, that is, those conscious high-level undead, or even Keseric himself."

Having said that, Lion turned his gaze to Jaheira again.

"We could have relied on Jaheira's magic to evade the perception of the undead, but those mind flayers that suddenly appeared were able to ignore our concealment spells. With them around, we can't carry out stealth operations or decapitation operations like before. Unless you, Jaheira, still have a way to help us evade the perception of the mind flayers, what can we do to stop them at this critical moment?"

"Very good question, Leon. What you said is indeed a difficult problem that we need to solve with all our strength at the moment."

Jaheira nodded first, confirming Leon's thoughts and concerns, and then she responded.

"But you asked me if I have a spell that can help us hide from the eyes of the mind flayers. Unfortunately, I don't have this ability. I speculate that the reason why the mind flayers were able to find us is not because of their own abilities, but because we have been discovered long ago. I speculate that the target who discovered us should be the foundation of the mind flayer clan, that is, the main brain. But my spells will definitely not be able to hide from the telepathy of the main brain."
