When Lu Yuan came to his senses, he found that he had been staying at Friendly Arms for another month. 【Read the latest chapter】
This confused him greatly.
He came out to seek adventure, but adventure didn't seem to be looking for him?
I didn't see anyone jumping out to step on him. Everyone would try to talk to the mage when they saw him. Lu Yuan was a project manager in his previous life, and he could talk to anyone. After a month, everyone in Friendly Arms liked him, and he also made many friends.
"Why am I getting farther and farther away from the life of being the enemy of the whole world? How can I break through quickly without going through the test of life and death?!" He also complained in distress.
In essence, he broke through to a fifth-level magician within two months of leaving Baldur's Gate. His progress was already astonishing. After several years of apprenticeship, he was like a clay pot filled with water, with thick accumulation and thin hair. After becoming an official mage, his mage level has been rising rapidly. He now feels that he will soon break through to level six. This momentum may only slow down after entering the intermediate level mage and becoming a fourth or fifth ring mage.
He came to Friendly Arm just to see if he could participate in the main plot of the game.
The game "Baldur's Gate" tells the story of the love and murder between the sons of Baal.
Many years ago, the Harper Gillian led people to attack the temple of the fallen evil god Baal. In the temple, they rescued a son of Baal who was used as a sacrifice. The child was brought back to Candlekeep and raised by Gillian. This is the protagonist, Tao No. "Chanem".
However, it was two brothers who were sacrificed at that time. The younger brother was rescued, and the elder brother Savrok escaped from the temple of the evil god. Later, he met Rita, the big businessman of Baldur's Gate, and became his adopted son.
After Shaflock took control of his own power, he chose to cooperate with Baal's church and tried to kill all the sons of Baal to complete the evil god's plan to resurrect. For this reason, he relied on the Iron Throne's plan to attempt to cause large-scale killings, launching waves of conspiracies in the Baldur's Gate area, forming a large number of adventurous missions... ahem...
In fact, under William's introduction, he met Savrok at a party, and because of the game, he inquired about him. To be precise, Lao Sha is a good person. it's actually very good. Charismatic, sincere and knowledgeable, likes to quote books and has outstanding eloquence!
When Laosha was still a teenager, he explored the Troll Mountains in Baldur's Gate and ruined the trolls' plan to plunder Baldur's Gate. After that, he became the leader of the adventure group. He always likes to take the lead and rush to the front. He is good at commanding and likes to charge into battle.
When many people thought he would join the Flame Fist and become the commander of the Flame Fist in the future, he became a member of his father Rita's business group and joined the Iron Throne Business Alliance.
It’s a mix of politics and business! He did not choose the path of working in Flame Fist for twenty years and then entering the top level. Instead, he chose to lead an existing force and directly challenge the old system of Baldur's Gate, which even included his adoptive father Rita. As a result, a large number of talented young people, middle and low-level mages, and oppressed small businessmen gathered around him, forming his own backbone within the Iron Throne.
Lao Sha is like an idol in the minds of young people at Baldur Gate. William was also inspired by Lao Sha and actively worked hard to become a parliamentarian. On the contrary, look at those old guys, they are still arguing and hesitating, unsure whether to suppress the Iron Throne. They are really stupid.
If you look at the story of the game from another angle, you will find that after entering Baldur's Gate, "Chanem" and his party received various explicit or covert help, which allowed him to finally overthrow Savrok and the Iron Throne. , achieve heroic fame. He actually became a steel knife used by the old nobles to slash at the Iron Throne and Savrok. They don't know about the Evil God's plan, the Sons of Baal, Barabara, etc. They just want to bring down the Iron Throne and the aggressive Savrok!
Anyway, the baseless "Chanem" can at most take away some gold coins and magic items from the Iron Throne. After they left, the feast really began. The manors, shops, real estate, debts, formulas, trade routes, shipping routes, trade agreements, ships, factories, etc. owned by the Iron Throne are the main body of the Iron Throne's wealth.
Truly priceless!
Lu Yuan is not interested in fighting for power. He has done a lot in these past lives and has successfully overthrown a high-ranking person.
What he loves now is magic and alchemy. Exploring the world of magic and performing endless magic is just like a childhood dream, very beautiful and very happy.
Do you still remember the spell he cast to make Girl Jill happy? It is a combination of a one-level spell and several zero-level spells. If a mage sees it, he will be shocked, because it involves several advanced techniques such as casting without materials, silent spells, prompt spells, and uninterrupted spell casting. subjects. Although it involves the lowest level of zero-level and one-level magic, the technical content and prospects here are very, very scary...
That’s why Mirror Shadow, the boss of Friendly Arms, would be so polite to him. Bentley Mirror Shadow is a tenth-level illusion mage of the dwarf race. In his early years, he often performed illusion shows to please customers. He can better understand the difficulty of the performance.
Similarly, the alchemy and forging techniques that create one wonderful item after another are also Lu Yuan's favorite. A crystal ball that can see far away, a paper plane that can fly by itself, a clothes hanger that can help you fold clothes... He really had a great time studying these things!
************************
Looking at the piles of digger beetles in front of him, Lu Yuan carefully classified them one by one. These armor pieces were all polished by the help of the people he hired. If he had to do it himself, he would not be able to polish them all in ten years.
Friendly Arm has a large number of low-end rooms and ample supplies of materials, so it has become a distribution center for northern adventurers.
In fact, being an adventurer is not a very good profession. How can there be so many treasures in the world? Most of them are still engaged in tasks such as escorting caravans and clearing out goblins. During busy farming periods, it was common for people to be hired by local lords to participate in farm work. There are not many city guards who are completely out of work, let alone mercenaries who earn their own living.
Therefore, Lu Yuan's sentence "Are you going to the pub to spend money when you are free, or are you taking a break and doing some small jobs to make money?" He attracted a large number of laborers. Each of them took a few pieces of insect shells and grindstones back, and polished off the excess parts according to the drawn lines, in exchange for a few gold coins... These rough-processed armor pieces were then handed over to the blacksmith for fine grinding, and they became He got the armor piece that Lu Yuan wanted.
He picked up a piece of armor made from the carapace of an insect's leg. This piece of armor was only about the size of a thumb and was bent into the shape of a bowl. Pinch the edge and squeeze hard, the insect shell will be squeezed inward, and then it will return to its original shape when released. This piece of armor is only about two millimeters thick, but it has amazing elasticity and toughness. Lu Yuan didn't think about what this kind of small armor could do before, but he just subconsciously rubbed it out.
Now I pinch it twice, and my heart feels bright. It is light, tough, and strong. Because it is a chitinous carapace, it cannot be damaged by hacking, knocking, or bows and arrows. Instead, a drill bit can easily drill a small hole. This is simply a natural material for making dragon scale armor! Referred to as Tiancai! He directly classified the feet of the ground-digger...
After looking at the quantity, it was enough to weave a piece of dragon scale armor for myself and Duixing each. This was really good news.
"Meow~" Nini suddenly appeared on Lu Yuan's shoulder and called softly. Nini is still the same size now, a petite black kitten, but with a pink collar around her neck. That was not what Lu Yuan used to tie Nini down. The collar provided a small space where Nini's food was stored, because Lu Yuan would forget everything once he got busy... He himself might starve to death, not to mention Nini? Therefore, Lu Yuan prepared a food bag, which also came with a "cleaning technique" three times a day to help Nini bathe.
"Is there someone here?" From Nini's thoughts, he knew that several people in robes were walking towards his room, and they didn't look malicious.
"Thank you Nini." Lu Yuan scratched his chin affectionately, and Nini raised her head comfortably. Nini can now not only say "Nini", she has learned to express some simple meanings, and can make cute meowing sounds under Lu Yuan's "correction". You will also become the king of cuteness in the future!
"Then prepare to entertain the guests."
Lu Yuan waved, and the piece of armor was put into the secondary space bag. Then put on a teapot that automatically boils water and six self-cleaning teacups...
"Please come in, followers of Ms. Alona." Just as the leading man in green robe knocked on the door, Lu Yuan opened the door, said to them, and made an invitation gesture. In the room, the teapot was just right It made a boiling sound.
The leader looked at Lu Yuan for a moment and looked satisfied.
It was a very senior old man with white hair and an astonishing aura. He was wearing a green robe made of dragon skin, with a simple long sword hanging on his waist. Apart from the unicorn holy symbol around his neck, there are no other decorative items. The four people following him, one middle-aged man, seemed dull and unwilling to speak, and the other two young women were very active. After entering the door, they first stared at Lu Yuan, and then their attention shifted to the various experimental products scattered in the room. ——For example, the rotating solar system model, the sun is still shining brightly.
Well, there are leaders responsible for making decisions, experts who understand technology, and young women with a lively atmosphere. This is a standard negotiation team. Lu Yuan complained in his heart.
"Please sit down, you're welcome." Lu Yuan first invited a few people to sit down, and then poured tea one by one. The delicate aroma began to fill the small room. The two girls took the lead and sat down happily. After tasting the tea for a while, they showed excitement and communicated with each other with their elbows. But the leader didn't say anything, and they obviously didn't dare to speak. After the dull middle-aged man saw some of Lu Yuan's semi-finished products, he rushed towards them with bright eyes. He picked up this one without putting down that one. He looked like he couldn't put it down. He was obviously obsessed with this and not good at getting along with others. Communication guy.
The leading old man coughed twice in embarrassment and said, "Hello, Mr. Lu Yuan, I am Ms. Alona's servant and Evening Star's master craftsman, Baishu Feiteli."
"Ah!" Lu Yuan immediately stood up again, forgetting his gentle demeanor just now. Mu Xing's master is the ranger who raised her since she was a child. Is this the rhythm of meeting her parents? !
"Um, you're here this time, right?" Lu Yuan said awkwardly, thinking that I was being pushed back and wouldn't get punched. I've heard that Evening Star's master is a near-legendary figure.
Seeing that Lu Yuan was still a "simple young man", Master Jiang felt relieved. This time he came to visit, to put it bluntly, he wanted to steal someone else's unique armor-making technology. Frederick had never done such an embarrassing thing in his life, let alone Evening Star's lover. Even if Lu Yuan gave up the craftsmanship of the Digger Armor for the sake of Mu Xing, if he had a grudge against the church and affected the relationship between the two of them, this would be something the master craftsman did not want to see.
He would not have come at all if he had not found out through divination with the help of the goddess that the trip would go very smoothly.
