"What do you need? Sir. Dining, drinking, looking for someone or resting?" Another girl in a brown dress ran over, this time knocking over a dwarf, "Ah, it's Mr. Mage who can do magic tricks!" It's so good to see you again!" Completely ignoring the dwarf who got up to complain, the Jill girl surrounded Lu Yuan like a skylark and made a noise.
"Mr. Master, how is your troupe's journey going? Please stay at Friendly Arms for a few more days this time. I'm looking forward to your magic show!"
Girl Jill crossed her arms on her chest, her big eyes flickering in anticipation.
Lu Yuan was speechless. Speaking of girl Jier, how much background information have you filled up for me? We are not wandering buskers!
Lu Yuan clapped his hands, and many skylarks flew out, attacking the girl with an even more noisy attitude. Look, I told you, we are not the busker surnamed Lei who turned into a rabbit!
Lu Yuan ignored the surprised girl Jill and walked directly to the bar.
"Lu, a very good spell, welcome back to Friendly Arm!" The dwarf standing behind the counter, Bentley Mirror Shadow, the boss of Friendly Arm, greeted. Seeing the dew on his mud cloak, he said, "Coming from the south? It's not very safe over there at this time."
It was also a delicious cup of beer. After drinking it, Lu Yuan felt that the fatigue of the journey was gone.
"Every time I want to fill my pockets with this beer." Lu Yuan praised and had another large glass without hesitation. Although it is best for mages to stay away from alcohol, Friendly Arm's beer is so delicious and has a miraculous effect in eliminating fatigue. It can even be said that how tired you are, how much you love this beer.
"A secret recipe passed down from our ancestors for three hundred years! I told you so." Bantli Mirror Shadow smiled proudly. "Okay, now do I want to give you a room to rest? Do you want to be close to the alchemy platform?"
"No, no, no, it's not necessary. I want to stay away from that table this time. Give me a room on the top floor with a distant view. I want to live there for a while." Lu Yuan only planned to study the spells carefully this time. It would be better if there were less temptations like alchemy that test one's will. He always has the urge to make things.
"Of course, the best room, I won't save money for a rich man." Bantli Mirror Shadow said, taking out a thin receipt from a small cabinet under the counter, "Witch Grocery Store A credit note of 50,000 gold coins was sent to Friendly Arm and named for you. If you don't get here for another two weeks, I will use your money to hire someone to find you."
Wow, after taking the receipt, I have to admire it even though I am far away. In addition to the ferocious pterosaur-tailed meteor hammers, the fifty thousand gold coins also included two pairs of Digger full-body armors. This is an exciting benefit.
"By the way, Mr. Mirror Shadow, do I need to find an old lady from the dwarf tribe of Belgost? Her name is, um, Landling?"
"Do you have anything to do with Ms. Landling? She is a distant sister of mine. You know, there are always some relatives between dwarves." Bantli Mirror Shadow asked.
"It's not a big deal. We cleaned up the big spiders in her house in Belgost. It was a hard battle. I happen to be coming to the north, so let her know by the way."
"Big Spider?! Oh my gosh, that's such a big deal, and she didn't even mention it to me. Jill, Jill, go get Ms. Landling here."
"Mr. Master wants to invite Aunt Landling? Then we need to perform again, otherwise you won't want me to run errands." Girl Jill said cheerfully, in a rapid-fire manner.
"Go quickly!" Bantli Mirror Shadow said again with a straight face, and Girl Gil ran away with a pout on her lips. "It's always such a joke."
Just as Lu Yuan was slowly drinking his second glass of beer, a rude voice came from behind.
"Are you looking for me?"
Lu Yuan turned his head and saw Jill supporting a dwarf old lady standing there.
"Are you Ms. Landling? Are you..."
"Trouble with your legs and feet. Do you have anything to do with me?"
Jill helped the old lady sit down, and Lu Yuan saw the old lady Landling let out a sigh of relief after sitting down, and subconsciously kneaded her knees.
"That's right, I found the spiders in your house in Belgost and cleaned them up. You can go home at any time."
"Did you find it?" The old lady looked at him suspiciously, "You didn't find it when you were stealing, right?"
"Alas," Lu Yuan looked at this strange old lady speechlessly and showed his ears, "As you can see, although I am not an elf, my hearing is very good."
"Maybe it's a half-elf! The kind that's several generations away." Old Mrs. Landling corrected her, it was so unlovable. "What's in the room?"
"I've handed the room over to the local guards, and they'll keep it until you get back. Plus they picked out a few things for me to bring to you, you know, I was getting ready to come north, and they said you might be in Friendly Arms Or Baldur’s Gate.”
Lu Yuan opened his backpack and took out a glass jar containing a fist-sized spider eye, a bottle of red wine and a pair of old shoes.
"They..." Touching the pair of shoes and the wine bottle, old Mrs. Landling said with a choked voice, "I didn't expect anyone to notice these. Who would care about a lonely old lady? I think it must be Ted, he is a Good young man, although I have never been very nice to him..."
Can Lu Yuaneng say that in fact, none of them said anything good about you? These things are all mission items in the game back then.
Old Mrs. Landling, holding a wine bottle and old shoes, fell into murmurs and memories. Only the lively girl Ji'er held the eyeball jar on her head and observed, "Wow~ Mr. Master, this is really amazing!"
"What should I call you?" After a while, old Mrs. Landling woke up from her memories.
"Lu Yuan, I'm from Karatu, just call me Lu Yuan."
"Lu...Yuan, I think you should be an adventurer. So if you help me clean up the house, I should pay you some reward."
Lu Yuan looked at the old lady's not-so-good attire and replied, "Forget it. We didn't put in much effort. We stayed in your house for a few days to offset it."
"Reward is reward, I don't need pity." The old lady's awkwardness came up again. "That's the house that my husband and I own. We have lived together for 60 years. That house is very important to me. I will pay you a fair amount!"
"Speaking of your house, I might need to remind you that it would be better for you to go back later. You know, after we cleaned up the spiders, we found some spider eggshells in the basement... Belgost's guards may think You are involved with those spider eggs, and it is always troublesome to explain. It would be better to go back later and wait for the matter to fade away."
"Spider eggs?! Damn old man! Is this the inheritance you left me?! I should burn that house down and find someone to remarry!" Old Mrs. Landling yelled several times angrily and stood up. He limped upstairs. Girl Jier quickly saluted Lu Yuan while holding the jar, and then quickly ran to help the old lady.
"He's a good kid."
Lu Yuan drank the last beer and called a passing waiter, "Take me to that awesome room now!"
****************
The room on the top floor was booked by Lu Yuan for a whole year.
Every day he was immersed in a sea of spells and couldn't extricate himself. Although Tailan Tier's spell materials were limited to spells before the third level, he explained many principles in an in-depth and simple way that even magicians may not understand. He often made Lu Yuan beam with excitement and was so excited that he couldn't rest.
However, Lu Yuan no longer had the same hard work as before, forgetting to sleep and eat. Since he awakened his food talent, he always likes to make something to eat and share it. In the past few months, apart from when I was studying spells, I would borrow a small kitchen to make some food to feed the goddess, Evening Star, and two black cats.
Lately he has taken a liking to baked desserts. This kind of food tastes good and lasts a long time. It is very suitable for people like Duixing who often need to travel long distances. New snacks are baked every day, and a large portion is given to Ah Fu who is standing by while it is still hot. He is also using a secondary magic item to carry it, and will deliver it to Duixing while the snacks are still steaming. , and then the three of them enjoy it together. Yes, three people, and the goddess Elona.
Lu Yuan needed to time it with Nini's help to put the second snack into the ring, so that the three of them could peacefully enjoy the snack together. Otherwise, it will lead to an incident where one person is showing off, another person is angry, and a cat is caught in the middle. The last one belongs to him and Nini. Every time he touches Nini's head and says with emotion.
"You are still the most sensible."
"Nini!"
Just when he was in a daze and thought he was going to continue studying like this, a waiter who was not as unreliable as the girl Jill came to the door.
"Mr. Lu Yuan, there is news about the half-elf from the south you asked about a few months ago."
"Oh", Lu Yuan stretched his body and stood up, took out a small bag of gold coins and handed it over, "Tell me carefully."
"A man and a woman, both half-elves. They sound like travelers from Calisan. The boss said they might be from the Harper Alliance..." After taking the gold coin, the waiter pinched it a little, and his face With an expression of slight surprise, he thought about it thoughtfully and added, "They took a letter from the counter. It seemed to be left to them by a big shot in Candlekeep."
"Thanks."
As soon as Lu Yuan walked downstairs, girl Jill spotted him from a distance and rushed over, "Mr. Master, Mr. Master."
She took Lu Yuan's sleeve and pulled him to the edge of the bar, then took out a bag from it, "This is what Aunt Landling handed over to you."
Lu Yuan took it, opened it and looked at it. Six glass bottles filled with emerald green liquid, thumb-sized, with Omar's logo printed on the cork, are universal antidotes produced by the Temple of Wisdom, and there are about 200 gold coins. Without refusing again, Lu Yuan just nodded and put everything into his backpack.
"Jill, bring me a dinner and a glass of beer." Lu Yuan picked up ten gold coins and put them in her little hand.
"Ah, dinner is 2 silver coins a piece and beer is 1 silver coin. It's not that much."
"The rest is for you." Lu Yuan patted the little head that was shaking in front of him, and Jill ran away with a blushing face.
Lu Yuan turned his head and looked at the few customers in the hall, and then noticed a man and woman sitting in the inner corner of the hall.
From a human point of view, both of them are only in their early twenties, because their hair is combed upward to facilitate wearing helmets. It can be seen from their ears that both of them are half-elves, and their facial features also appear to be half-elves. He has the thin, handsome features of an elf.
The woman looked beautiful and exuded a wild aura. She was wearing leather armor and had an oak cane beside her. She was saying something loudly. The man lowered his head and didn't say much. He also wore metal chain mail for ease of travel, and had a shield and sword at his side. There were some stains on the clothes of both people, obviously they had just returned from the wild.
"Jasira, Khalid."
Lu Yuan whispered to himself, made the same gestures to Jill who was bringing dinner, and walked towards the two people. Jill puffed up her mouth angrily. She wanted to pester Mr. Master to perform again, but she failed again.
"Hello everyone, I feel a breath of nature. I'm Lu Yuan, from Karatu. Can you meet me?" Lu Yuan greeted with a smile.
"Hello... hello, I'm Ka... Khalid, very... nice... to meet you," the man replied with some stuttering. Khalid, the half-elf warrior and Jasira's lover, accompanied the protagonist to solve the conspiracy of the Iron Throne, and later died in the dungeon of Erinikas in Askatra in Amn.
"Hello, I am Jasila, Mr. Mage."
Looking at Jasira from the front, she is less feminine and more heroic. The current Jasira is not the kind of elegant and beautiful lady she was after Khalid died. Now Jasila still has the aura of mountains and youth, but she is just a low-level mercenary who has just accepted the inheritance of Druid.
"Can I sit down?"
"Please," Khalid seemed very shy, probably because of his stuttering and lack of self-confidence. Basically, Jasila was leading the actions of the two of them.
"So, Mr. Mage, you don't look like someone who deals with people casually. Can you clearly state your purpose?" As soon as Lu Yuan sat down, Jasila asked directly. She kept emphasizing the words "Mr. Mage". This was not the coquettish tone of the little girl Ji'er, but a tone of contempt. Lu Yuan suddenly remembered that Druids also disliked mages. Unlike Priest Elona, they believe that arcane users use arcane magic to distort reality, which is a very serious unnatural behavior.
"That's right. I saw the equipment of the two of you. They should be adventurers. I hope to hire you."
Jasira and Khalid looked at each other and shook their heads, "Sorry, we are here to wait for... a companion, and we already have another mission."
"Hi, hi," Lu Yuan interrupted, "I would like to ask, is it about the iron ore crisis in Naxikai?"
"Let me see your camp!" Jasira, whose eyes suddenly sharpened, finished speaking. Without waiting for Lu Yuan's consent, he chanted the "Detect Evil" magic spell, guided his gestures, and a ray of light shone on his eyes. On the body.
Lu Yuan's body gradually glowed with a dark blue mixed with a hint of white camp aura.
"Neutral and occasionally kind? What is your purpose in participating in the iron ore crisis in Naxikai?" Jasira said sarcastically.
Khalid said, "Jasira... you don't... don't... then... then... then..."
"Beautiful? Cute?" Jasira followed Khalid's stuttering and deliberately teased her. Facing her companions, Jasira was no longer so harsh.
"Yes, it is."
Khalid replied.
Then, the three of them laughed together, and the atmosphere became much better.
"Evil? Good? Order? Chaos?, I choose to walk in the middle. This is my position, and it has nothing to do with my choice to solve the iron ore crisis in Naxikai! It's just because I am a Naxikai person, and there are thousands of people there Make a living by relying on iron ore." Lu Yuan said solemnly.
"Welcome, fellow traveler on the neutral road." Jasira also solemnly replied. She is an absolutely neutral camp, and of course she will not exclude people from the same camp. "Please tell us about your mission, and if possible, we would like to help as friends."
"Thank you, as the rumor goes, people are more willing to help others at a friendly arm."
At this time, Jill brought the dinner plate over, and Lu Yuan cast a lighting spell on her hand, and she happily ran to the back to show off.
"You are a good person." Jasila commented.
"Yes...yes." Khalid also echoed.
"When I was buying some spell-casting materials in Naxikai, I heard a piece of news by chance." Lu Yuan glanced around to make sure no one heard it before continuing, "Someone paid a lot of money to hire people to ambush a candleman. The conspirator of the fort is said to be for a child. The leader is the instigator of this iron ore crisis. I want to take advantage of this ambush opportunity to arrange an ambush against the conspirator and completely eliminate the iron ore mine. crisis."
"Ha, assassin!" Jasila commented disdainfully.
"This is the best way I can think of! That guy has a lot of strength, and I can't go head-on." Lu Yuan argued.
"You...that...that child you are talking about...and...there is also a mage..." Khalid, who was sitting next to him, asked anxiously.
"I didn't hear this...ah, that's right!" Lu Yuan suddenly realized, "That mage's name is Gallien!" (Please recommend, please add to favorites)
