Ordinary fantasy adventure in Faerûn

Chapter 555 Persuading Surrender
As soon as he finished speaking, Noshier took out a shield with a devil's face on it from the space box. He stretched out his fingers and tapped the surface of the shield twice, making a crisp sound.

"Stop playing dead, Gargauth, and get up and say something."

Noshil completed the above operations quickly, and then placed the bottom of the shield directly on the table, leaning it against the wall. After that, the devil's face pattern on the surface of the shield lit up red, and Gargoyle's somewhat greasy voice also sounded from the shield.

"Oh~ Look who this is? Isn't this my most respected master?"

The red light on the shield flickered, as if speaking according to Gargauth's tone.

"Oh my God, ever since you got that damn ring, we have no chance to deepen our relationship through words. Ah~ my dear master, your indifference really breaks my heart. We have already signed a contract with such a powerful effect. You know that I can never hurt you with my ridiculous posture sealed in the shield. Even if I really get out of this shield, I will not be able to hurt you at all during the 50 years from the day I get out. I will even help you to the greatest extent. But you still ignore me to this extent because of your prejudice against demons. You are just a demon yourself."

Noshil's brows twitched. It seemed that Gargus had been holding back for too long and actually said so many words in one breath. However, Noshil took the initiative to call him out to communicate with his mind not to listen to his jokes.

"That's enough, Gargoyle. Stop your nonsense. I didn't call you out today to listen to your jokes. You don't need to say anything. Just listen carefully to every word I say next, because it will affect your life and property in the future - I'm not kidding."

"..."

Gargos was silent. Telepathic communication is a much more convenient and faster way of communicating than verbal communication, and it also expresses information more clearly and concisely. In this way of communication, if one of the two people talking to each other is willing, that party can incorporate his or her own will into the conversation at any time, and inform the other party of his or her beliefs and decisions more clearly and firmly.

And Noshir had just done so, so Gargos clearly understood that what Noshir had said before was indeed not a joke, so just like his previous survival experience, Gargos was very sincere and just shut his mouth without even asking any questions.

The reason why Gargoyle made this choice was not entirely due to his past survival experience. In fact, Gargoyle knew very well in his heart that the guy in front of him was no longer the novice when he first met him.

In the past, Noshir had to sneak into the dungeons here, but on Noshir's adventure, Gargos witnessed many miracles performed by Noshir himself. He witnessed with his own eyes how amazing Noshir's growth rate was, and Gargos knew in his heart that this guy had many more things that he had not shown.

Outside his field of vision, Noshir, the tiefling whom he had never taken seriously, was hiding extremely terrifying power. Gargauth could feel this. Although he had just become a demigod and was sealed in a shield by a Seraph not long ago, he still possessed the vision - or perception - of a demigod.

Gargos sensed the powerful force in Noshir's body. Almost every time he appeared in the outside world, in his perception, Noshir's growth and changes were earth-shaking. Gargos could also sense the weapons and equipment on Noshir's body. There was no doubt that according to the magic aura that could not be perceived by the naked eye, this kid actually had 4 legendary magic items on his body. Gargos had no idea how the guy got these things? Even if he was still alive, he would not have been able to get a lot of magic equipment of this level like Noshir, just like wholesale. But in addition to these legendary equipment, what really shocked him was the crown that he didn't know where Noshir got it from.

When he first sensed the crown in the space box, Gargoyle knew what level of treasure that thing was. The magic fluctuations emanating from the crown were undoubtedly at the level of a divine artifact, and Noshir actually had the ability to get a divine artifact!
To be honest, every time he thought of this, Gargaus would regret in his heart why he had been so hasty in signing that extremely unequal contract with Nosir. This feeling of uneasiness reached its peak after Nosir took him out of the space box a few days ago and completed the artifact in front of him.

At that time, Gargoyle understood that he had completely lost the possibility of guiding, controlling, and dominating Noshir. This existence, which Gargoyle originally thought he could easily use, was now completely out of control. What was even worse than being out of control was that Gargoyle knew clearly that Noshir now probably had a way to deal with him.

The situation now is too obvious. This kid called him out today just to confront him. He definitely thought of a way to deal with him, but he has no ability to resist Noshil. Therefore, even if Noshil now directly and rudely asks him to shut up, Gargoys can only do as he is told, because Gargoys does not want to die, so this extremely humiliating thing for Gargoys happened.

Gargaus cooperated very well and shut his mouth. Noshil was very satisfied with Gargaus' cooperation. And it was precisely because of Gargaus' cooperation that Noshil continued to speak the following words.

He first explained to Gargauth directly that his goal was to seize the divinity in his body. In order to achieve this goal, he had already found a way to definitely kill him and plunder the divinity from his corpse. If he wanted to avoid death, his best choice now was to surrender completely.

Because for Noshir, if possible, he actually didn't want to kill Gargoyle just like that. After all, this guy strictly speaking had not done anything to harm him, and the strength of this devil itself was strong enough.

After controlling Mizora before, Noshir realized how convenient it was to have a powerful subordinate, but Gargos was a demigod-level devil after all. Even if he voluntarily offered his divinity, if he deliberately resisted, it would be difficult for Noshir to control him directly with the crown.

So for Noshir, it would be better to try to convince him first. In order to increase the persuasiveness, Noshir directly told him in detail the plan he had originally prepared to throw Gargauth into the River Styx.

He also added that no matter whether he agreed to surrender or not, it was an essential step for him to let the shield go into the River Styx for a tour. Therefore, there were only two paths before Gargauth.

One is to rather die than obey. Noshir will not say much. He will directly put the shield back into the space equipment, and then Gargos can wait for death silently in the space equipment. The second is to obey.
