Ordinary fantasy adventure in Faerûn

Chapter 530 Preparing for War
Noshiel immediately contacted Grand Duke Revengard with the communication stone and briefly explained all the events related to the upcoming attack of the Githyanki so that the warriors could prepare for battle in advance and not be caught off guard by the sudden attack of the Githyanki.

Thanks to Noshir's previous achievements, Grand Duke Ravengard attached great importance to the information he conveyed. Under the Grand Duke's order, the entire Flaming Fist Legion divided itself into small teams and demonstrated rapid mobilization. The entire city quickly entered a state of combat readiness, all the crossbows were strung, and the Iron Guards quickly entered combat posts or key defense nodes.

After making sure that Baldur's Gate was securely defended, Noshier increased the horsepower of the submersible to its maximum and rushed towards the Gray Harbor at the fastest speed. He knew that there was a hidden shore at a place called Flame Cargo where this huge vessel could be docked.

Finally, after speeding forward in the water for about half an hour, Noshir found the place he wished for, docked the behemoth inside, and by the way completed the handover with the Flame Fist that had just taken control of the area more than ten minutes ago.

The leader of this group of Flame Fists was Noshir's old friend, Karak. The moment he saw Karak, Noshir opened the hatch and threw Gotash to her.

Noshil did not say much, but his meaning was very clear, that is, this guy is at your disposal. And the moment Karak saw Gotash, her heart, which had been stabilized by Noshil, suddenly roared violently again uncontrollably. But when she saw the miserable state of Gotash who was beaten by Noshil, another strange feeling suddenly swept over her body.

After a long time, Karak felt a sense of peace in her heart. In Karak's heart, the shadow caused by Gotash's betrayal no longer burned her heart as before. She knew that from this moment on, the troubled nightmare that had swept her for eight years would no longer exist.

She looked at Gotash, who was slowly regaining consciousness after falling to the ground due to Noshir's rough throw. Karak's heart was filled with thousands of words. She had countless questions to ask him, asking him why he did that in the first place? But when the words were about to come out, Karak stopped again. She silently commanded her soldiers to put on the magic-blocking shackles for Gotash, and then pushed him to the Bodran Sea Tower not far away.

Now is not the time to ask questions, Karak thought to himself.

After driving away the Githyanki who were brought here because of Gotash's trouble, she will have enough time to settle the old accounts with Gotash one by one.

Looking at the calm Karak, Noshir on the side was also relieved that she handled the situation so appropriately. He had been a little worried that Karak would lose control when she saw Gotash, but now it seems that he had underestimated her. It seems that the time spent back in Baldur's Gate has indeed healed many of the traumas in her heart.

After Noshir sighed slightly in his heart, he also followed Karak and walked towards the direction of the Bodran Tower.

He knew that if the Githyanki really arrived here soon, their primary goal would be to take back the Astral Prism, which he had in his hands. Considering that the Lich Queen might have some positioning methods that he didn't know about, Noshiel thought about it and felt that he couldn't just go into the downtown area. He couldn't return to his manor, but he wanted to rescue Orpheus, but he had to find a safe enough place to enter the Astral Prism, and the Bodran Sea Tower perfectly met these requirements.

It is an isolated island building connected only by a giant bridge. Even the nearest gray port is nearly five or six miles away. It is built on the Jonsa River, far away from the city. The building itself is a special prison in Baldur's Gate used to detain the most vicious magical criminals.

Because of this, there is a very good level of armed forces there. The entire sea tower is equipped with more than 300 elite guards. There are more than a dozen newly produced steel guards guarding the bridge and the exits around the sea tower. There is enough security force to protect Noshir from being snatched away by the enemy in a short time after entering the Star Prism. There is no need to worry about endangering the urban area if a battle occurs there. It can be said that it is the most suitable place to stay at present.

Noshil had already made arrangements for related matters in advance, so after he arrived at the destination with Karak, the warden of Bodran Tower immediately prepared the safest and most secluded house for Noshil.

After declining the warden's offer of other help, Noshir waited until all the guards had left before he took out the Astral Prism in the room alone. According to the instructions on the panel, he used his sharp steel fingertips to precisely tap the specific Tisur characters on it, making the Astral Prism, which was already emitting a yellow glow, gradually become more dazzling.

After Noshir repeated the above steps and hit three sides of the polyhedron in a loop, at that moment, the Star Prism suddenly struggled out of his hand, floated directly in the room, and began to spin violently. During this rotation, the spikes on the Star Prism also drew white circular arcs as the speed became faster and faster.

Then in the next moment, the Astral Prism suddenly disintegrated. At that moment, each side of this polyhedron object suddenly expanded outward a short distance, and a silvery-white stream of light condensed from the cracks in the prism, forming a circular, unique portal in front of Noshir that shone with silver, purple, and gray, as bright as starlight, and as dreamy as a long moon.

"It's done."

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar portal in front of him, a smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of Noshir's mouth, and then he conducted a series of tests on the portal, including throwing objects tied with ropes into it and pulling them back to see if there were any changes, so as to determine whether there were any dangerous environments in the world on the other side.

The result of the experiment is that everything is safe and there are no environmental hazards such as magma on the other side, but it is not yet clear whether there are any creatures on the other side waiting for them to enter.
