Coronation Day of the Grand Duke.

In the morning, a large number of important members of the Zonggui Council had gathered at Feilongguan Fortress, and the four-person committee was also present.

People in Livington District had to go to the city a day in advance if they wanted to participate in the parade ceremony, because Feilong Pass was closed all day on Coronation Day.

The flower vendors in the market can make the corners of their mouths crack with laughter. The flamboyant Duke Gotash liked to create a little pomp, so he ordered a large number of flowers to be sprinkled on the streets when the parade passed by.

Naturally, some people sincerely believe that Gotash is the so-called savior of the city, and they will spontaneously buy flowers as gifts.

If it weren't for the lack of flowers in this season, and the market in Baldur's Gate is also very poor, it is estimated that the merchants would spare no effort to turn the city into a world surrounded by flowers - which is also a day when their pockets are filled with gold coins.

The coronation ceremony in the fortress went smoothly.

The adventure team did not join in the fun and flatter Gotash's stinky feet.

However, the live scene was relayed by the radio host Alfila, and citizens throughout the city could receive real-time news.

The process was simple. Gortash accepted the canonization of Duke Ravengaardgard, and after taking an oath of duplicity, he officially took over the position of Supreme Consul of Baldur's Gate.

At a quarter of noon, Gotash and Ravengard took an extended convertible produced by the Blackhand Company, departed from the north wing of Feilong Rock, passed through the outer city, and passed through the Petrified Lizard Gate into the lower city. Onlookers along the way cheered on both sides of the street. Cheers, if the flame fists hadn't blocked it, there would have been fanatical citizens rushing up to block the car.

Enver Gotash was sitting in the back seat. The sun shone brightly on the city and on his always gloomy face. He had never smiled as cheerfully as he did today. At one point, he stood up and waved to the people on both sides.

Every time he did so, the cheers got louder.

"Look at them, how interesting they are." Gotash said to Ravengard next to him. "Mortals have the instinct to become slaves. Everyone wants to pass on the responsibility for survival to others and wants to enjoy freedom unconditionally. So. I will provide them with freedom, even if it is false freedom, and they will be happy.”

Duke Gao's eyes were dull and he praised loudly: "Everything Gotash said is right."

"Sad mortals and sad cities, without a unified leader and unified voice, are destined to perish in endless internal strife. History will not remember a so-called open city-state, but will applaud a powerful country. Today I become the Grand Duke of Baldur's Gate, and tomorrow, I will be the king of the whole world..."

His expression suddenly changed, and he felt a strong palpitation in his heart. This was the god's warning to the electorate that someone was going to assassinate the king!

The metal gloves worn by Gotash began to flash with magical light, releasing a projectile deflection field, which was a spell that could block missiles and arrows. However, this force field dissipated without a trace the moment it spread.

At the last moment of his life, Gotash realized that the assassination was well prepared, and the other party had prepared an anti-magic force field to prevent his self-rescue.

…damn it.

boom!

There was a gunshot.

Before the gunshot, Ravengard, who was sitting next to Gotash, could clearly see that the newly appointed Grand Duke trembled violently like a flag blown by a gust of wind, and his head turned to one side. It tilted, and a piece of skull detached and flew out, landing on the back cover of the car.

Ravengard stood up and tried to retrieve the skull. The convertible was still driving, and the people on both sides were stunned. Then gunshots came from the rooftops half a mile away, and screams broke out.

The Bann believer who was driving quickly stepped on the brakes and the car stopped.

Gotash's lifeless body was tilted, and blood continued to roll down from one side of the car door.

In the crowd, Will quickly squeezed away the flame fist and ran over. Holding a brain-machine patch in his hand, he ran towards Urd Revengard.

"Father! Here!"

Suddenly, a bright flame of hell exploded in front of Will's eyes, and the devil Mizola came out of the portal, blocking his way.

"Get out of the way!"

"Will, Will, do you remember our previous agreement? One life for another. You either keep yours or let your father die. There is not much time left for you."

Urd Revengard held his head and struggled in pain, and at the same time the whole city began to shake violently.

The three chosen ones are dead, and the Supreme God is out of trouble!

"I'm warning you one last time, get out of the way, Mizola." Will was distraught.

"Wrong answer. Say goodbye to your father." Mizola laughed and disappeared into the hellfire again, and six explosive spiders suddenly jumped out of the place and rushed toward Urd quickly.

However, all the explosive spiders suddenly dissipated when they rushed near the car. They were expelled by the anti-magic force field as summons.

The back of the convertible suddenly opened and Gale got out, complaining, "My back can't handle this kind of work."

As the number of Netheril users grew, he also unlocked the 8th level spell slot, and has gradually regained his former style.

Will rushed over and installed a brain-computer patch on his father. Constantine's superpower prevented the transformation of the mind flayer Tadpole, which was quite timely.

The ground was still shaking. Unlike the past, which quickly subsided, this time it lasted for an extra long time and became more and more intense. The Supreme Hall (Supreme Hall) in the upper city was completely torn apart, and the ground was cut open by a huge wound that stretched for miles. .

In the horrified eyes of the people, the Illithid Mastermind rose from the ground. Its size was even more swollen than when it was in the Moonrise Tower, as big as a palace.

If all the clan nobles hadn't gathered at Feilong Pass today, the city government of Baldur's Gate would have been wiped out in an instant.

After regaining his consciousness, Urd Revengard took a while to regain his balance. He looked at Will painfully, and then his eyes were attracted by the more serious chaos in the city.

"Baldur's Gate is in fire and water!"

When the Supreme God ascended into the sky, the clear sky was shrouded by clouds that suddenly swept over. This mastermind had been reborn with the help of the Crown of Karthus. Not even a legendary creature could have such a prominent natural power, not even a giant dragon. Humbled.

The violent spiritual tsunami spread from the brain of the Supreme God, reaching far and wide, resounding throughout the world.

"—Domination—Conquest—The Great Plan—Realization—"

In the terrifying blue-purple psychic radiation waves, the real world was distorted, and one mind flayer shell ship was summoned one after another, forming a sizable fleet. On the earth, the cult army also emerged from the star portal. came out and started killing people in the city.

Some of the infected people who did not use the brain-computer patch were transformed and turned into mind flayers, attacking the frightened people nearby.

The great tribulation has begun.

"God, save us!" the citizens were crying.

Constantine's voice spread from the top of Ramagis Tower: [Don't panic, people of Baldur's Gate, pick up your weapons and defend this city. Githyanki, where is your fleet? 】

Astral portals open in the sky, and the Githyanki Red Dragoons rush to the battlefield. The leader was Chief Centurion Voss.

Nine-fingered Keen drew out his pistol and shot a new mind flayer to death. She grinned: "What the hell, Octopus Head, this is my territory, you should pay the protection fee!"

A large number of civil organizations fought on the streets together with Flame Fist and Watchers.

The allies of the adventure team have come to the rescue, including tiefling refugees from Eltoril, workers from United Industries, Roland from the Tower of Ramagis, and Erin, the Song of the Night, who participated without fear. this final battle.

Alfila shouted on the radio: "Don't be afraid, friends! Listen, the heart of Baldur is still beating, the guardian of the city spreads its wings, can you hear the cries of the people? Take off, An Su!"

Huge waves exploded from the surface of the Chongsa River, and a dragon shadow made of ancient bronze rose into the sky, spread its wings and raised its head to roar.

Paladin, who was standing on the dragon's back, put his hands behind his back and looked at the arrogant Supreme God from a distance. (End of chapter)
