Chapter 534 Shackles Shattered
"Why--why did you do this? How can you prove that what you just said is true!"
After hearing what Noshier said, even someone as determined as Li Ricker lost her mind for a moment, but after that, her duty as the honor guard of Orpheus forced her to come back to her senses with great perseverance.
It is undeniable that it is the lifelong dream of all the Gis people present to free Orpheus and liberate all of them, but compared to their own safety, protecting and preventing Orpheus from any harm is the most important duty of these guards.
And a stranger who has never been heard of or seen before suddenly broke the peace of ten thousand years and boasted that he would give them freedom. Even if they wanted this to be true, it seemed too suspicious. For this reason, Li Ricker had to be 120% vigilant and question whether what Noshier did was true.
But Noshier naturally understood their concerns, so in order to gain their trust to the greatest extent, in the next moment, he threw the Orpheus Hammer in his hand directly to Li Rick and spoke directly to her.
"Whether what I said is true or not. You will naturally understand it after trying it yourself. Communicate the magic power in this hammer, and then knock on the hell red crystals around your prince, so that you can break those things, end your prince's bondage, and let him be free - go, I will wait for you here, and during this time, I will not do anything."
After saying these words, Noshier directly found a protruding rock on the spot, brushed off the dust with his tail, and sat down directly, and Li Rick also reached out to catch the thrown hammer at this time.
She looked at this gorgeously shaped hammer with a handle of mithril, and the hammer head was cast with mithril like a branch, and the sharp unknown red crystal fixed in it. As soon as you pick it up, you can feel the powerful power contained in it. It seems to be a magic weapon that is really true.
After carefully feeling the power contained in it for a while, Li Rick couldn't help but fall silent. Not only her, but all the Gis people who saw this scene also stopped as if they were paused. They were shocked by the magnanimity shown by Noshir.
Even if they didn't count the years they were sealed here, in their long lifespans, long time, and previous experience of galloping and fighting in the endless star realm, they had never seen such a magnanimous person, but——
"SHA'VAH ORPHEUS (Orpheus is above all)! In these ten thousand years, I have never been more excited than I am now. Istik (stranger), if what you said is true, if you really bring us hope and really unlock the shackles for our prince, then all the Gis people will remember your kindness, and we will definitely give you due respect, but before that, please wait here first. "
Noshir did not speak, but just made a gesture of please do as you please, and then continued to stay where he was, and did not move. Li Rick took a deep look at Noshir again, and then made a gesture of vigilance to the other Gis people, and she herself took the hammer and turned around and left here with two Gis people, walking towards the depths of the skull of the god corpse, and Noshir just sat there quietly in the strong crowd, waiting for the next development.
Because he didn't want to waste time, Noshier chose the simplest, most direct, and possibly the most useful method in the previous negotiations. After all, the Hammer of Delphus he gave to Li Rick could definitely break the seal of Prince Comet. He also knew Prince Orpheus's character very well. He knew that once the prince was out of trouble, with his noble character and the lifelong vision that the prince pursued, he would ask him to help deal with the Githyanki who invaded Baldur's Gate next. It would only take a word, and there would be no difficulty at all.
Even though he was surrounded by hundreds of Gith people, Noshier was not panicked at all, because the only thing he had to do now was to wait here.
As for Li Rick, when she just turned around and left, her steps were still steady, but as soon as she left everyone's sight, Li Rick immediately ran away, ignoring the Gith soldiers stationed in the skull to guard the seal, and quickly came to Prince Orpheus at a speed that could be called flying.
She looked at Prince Orpheus, whose arms were tightly bound by chains extending from two pieces of Hell Blood Crystals, and whose mouth was sealed by the iron mask. He was suspended in this circular shield, unable to speak or talk. He had been floating like this for tens of thousands of years. A trace of grief appeared in her eyes, but soon, she looked at the hammer in her hand again, and thought of what the tiefling had said just now. For a moment, Li Rick's heart was filled with a hope that she herself didn't know whether she should believe or not.
"...Don't lie." Li Rick held the hammer tightly with both hands, muttering unconsciously, and then in the next moment, she closed her eyes, but then opened them suddenly, and then slowly walked to the right side of Orpheus, and then looked at the huge blood crystal in front of her.
Over the past tens of thousands of years, Li Rick has tried to chop the shield and the red stones with the silver sword thousands of times. However, these ten thousand years of experience have clearly told her how meaningless her efforts are. But today...
Lee Rick was silent for a moment, and then in the next moment, she suddenly raised the not-so-heavy two-handed hammer in her hand, and a touch of red energy condensed on the hammer head at that moment, and then hit the giant red crystal stone in front of her heavily.
And in the next moment, something happened that made Lee Rick extremely happy. The red crystal stone that had remained motionless after her attack for tens of thousands of years was actually covered with dense yellow cracks all over the body at that moment! Then, accompanied by a crisp sound of glass shattering, the whole red stone also exploded instantly!
Lee Rick couldn't believe what she saw in front of her, but almost in the next moment, all the Gis people around began to cheer violently. The guard captain Lee Rick, who was called back to God by this cheer, immediately raised his hammer and quickly moved to the other side of the red stone, and raised the war hammer again!
——
"...The movement over there seems to be a bit noisy. It seems that the guard captain is very fast."
