Chapter 3 Not a Good Life
Niklas, a thief of the Baldur's Gate Thieves Guild.
But he actually worked as a broker, collecting some stolen goods and helping to broker some underground deals. Or help the members of the guild find some "work" and get some commissions from it. Niklas has a wide range of people, even in the "Flame Fist", there are several petty officials who can talk to him, and he usually gets out of prison to catch a thief or something.
"Bump! Touch! He tapped lightly on the lattice of the attic.
After a while, the sleepy-eyed Lu Yuan opened the window, "Damn, can't you come in through the door?" β
"Then ask your landlord." Niklas jumped in quickly, looked out, and saw that there were no pedestrians on the street before closing the window.
"Hah, look at your head, how many times has this been? Brother, you have to take care of your body. β
"Come on, Nicholas. As long as you can come in at a normal time and follow the normal path, I will definitely live longer! Lu Yuan began to remove the bandage on his head as he spoke, the potion was really good, and the trauma had all healed.
"Wait a minute." Lu Yuan went to fetch water to wash.
Niklas sat bored in the chair William had sat in yesterday, his eyes scanning the roof, under the bed, and all the other places where he could hide.
When Lu Yuan came back, he smiled when he saw him, "Don't look for it, it's here this time." β
As he spoke, he picked up the pillow on the bed and opened it, revealing more than a dozen bottles of potions of various sizes inside. Only one of the two bottles of medical potion William brought yesterday was used, and the rest is here.
"These are normal potions, these are slightly less effective, and the rest can be used as poison." Lu Yuan put the potion on the table and divided it into three piles. Some of these potions were stolen by his dexterous wrist, and some were "scrapped". But these things can be put in the Thieves' Guild, and they can all produce value, such as poisonous ones can be used for assassination, and defective products can be used to pit fat sheep, but that's not about Lu Yuan.
He's just one of the "Thieves' Guild Purchase Channels", and it's still a low-end one.
"300 gold." Nicholas read it and quoted a price.
Lu Yuan directly scratched the pile of four bottles of potion of normal potions to the side, "Done!" 300 gold to sell you these! β
"Don't, 400 gold! Sincerity price! Couldn't be more. β
Lu Yuan picked up the potion brought by William and said, "This bottle will cost 300 gold coins on the market...... Look, I'm going to grow too. β
β¦β¦
After the last argument, all the potions were sold for 950 gold. As a mage apprentice, food and lodging are free, and selling alchemy products is his only source of income.
"Hey, Nick, are we brothers?" After the transaction, Lu Yuan asked casually.
"Shit, if you talk about raising prices again, we're enemies!"
"you, I'm serious."
"It depends on the situation, if you have anything to say first, I will charge less at most if I can do it."
"I've decided to be your enemy."
"Shit! Well, you boss. Say, it's free this time. β
"Hey, bro! Welcome back! Lu Yuan said exaggeratedly.
"Speak quickly," Nicholas pouted dissatisfiedly and looked outside, "it's almost dawn, I have to go." β
"Nick, I've heard that there are some good things to buy in the Thieves' Guild, can you introduce me to it?"
"To the guild?" Nicholas looked embarrassed, bringing outsiders into the guild was a hassle, but it wasn't too difficult. But when he thought about it, this kid has earned almost 5,000 gold coins from me, and he doesn't look like he can spend money, he must have saved a lot, this is a big fat sheep! Go back and make a good calculation with the black lily girl, and at least half of the capital in the past few months will be returned.
"Done! Don't sleep tonight, wait for me to come to you!" β
After saying that, he opened the window, but there was no sound, and he disappeared into the alley in the distance with a few jumps.
Lu Yuan looked enviously and closed the window, he still had something important to do.
*******************************
He locked the door and made it look like no one was there, so that the apprentices would leave on their own.
After checking again to make sure no one was peeking around, he said softly, "System......
Yes, he was no longer sure that he was from this worldly realm. Because just when the transaction was completed, a line of words suddenly appeared in front of me, "Valuation +1"!
He barely screamed, and Nicholas didn't seem to see the line at all, just packing up the potion on his own. The memories in his sleep came flooding back, as if in an instant, he understood many, many things. Maybe it's not a dream, maybe it's a dream now, maybe it's a crossing, maybe it's some mess, he doesn't care!
What he knows is that he has finally got the capital to gain a foothold! Got the capital to get rid of the decoy identity! Got the capital to become a strong man!
He finally confirmed that this was the one he remembered called "Baldur's Gate", which had the same name as the city he was in, and it was also a game that described the story of the city.
The evil god Baal, a god of high divine power, predicted his fall a long time ago. Therefore, with the support of his own temple, he began to plan for the resurrection. To this end, he began to sow extensively in all races of the main plane, from dragons, elves, and humans, down to goblins and kobolds, leaving a large number of descendants in the main plane.
As these children grow up, they will continue to lean towards the dark side under the influence of Baal's bloodline, and the violent and dark experiences will continue to accumulate in their lives, and these children will bring killing and darkness to every corner of Faeron, and also nourish Baal's bloodline in secret. They will wage war and plot against each other, and those who survive will receive all that they have died. When all of Baal's divine power has been gathered into one of the heirs, Baal will be able to resurrect the heirs with the help of his priests and return to the throne.
Rita, a merchant of Baldurgate, one of the Councillors of the Iron Throne Business Alliance, submitted his plan to the Iron Throne Council after the Cormir Kingdom banned the Iron Throne merchants - to contaminate the iron ore of Nasikai in the name of Santarim and secretly mine new iron ore in the Cloaked Forest. At that time, the Iron Throne Business Alliance will take advantage of the iron ore crisis to completely monopolize the iron ore and weapons trade north of Baldur's Gate.
His son, who was actually one of Bal's remaining heirs, was in charge of the planning of the Iron Throne in the Sword Bay portion. What Rita doesn't know is that when Shaflock became an adult, he learned in a dream that he was the son of Baal. He went to Candlefort to read Arlando's prophecy, and after coming into contact with the church of Baal, he confirmed that Baal's heirs would move to the throne of God in the midst of slaughter. So he began to use Rita's plan to plan a killing, involving Baldur's Gate, Am, and other powerful forces, and planning a killing that was no less impressive from the perspective of the gods.
At the same time, the adopted son of the mage and the monk of Candlecastle Glien, the protagonist of this work, Chanem, is also one of Baal's children. After Glion's death, he will gather "a team of adventurers" to uncover the truth about Nasikai's pollution, overturn the bandit camp, flood the iron ore of the Cloaked Forest, sabotage the plot to murder the Grand Duke, and finally the last two descendants of Baal have a life-and-death duel in the temple of Baal!
He knew that Nicholas in front of him would give Chanem, the son of Baal, a mission in the future, and eventually the entire Thieves' Guild would be involved in the struggle at the upper levels of Baldur's Gate; He knew that his cousin, William, would die in an encounter, and contributed a mage's robe and a large amount of experience to Chanem; He knew that William's teacher, Ramassis, would be at odds with another archmage because of a goblin; It is better understood that the Iron Throne will launch a rebellion that will shake the entire upper echelons of Baldur's Gate.
Of course, if these things just allow him to get some opportunities, then the kind of thing called "Goldfinger" can completely change his life.
"Panels? Attribute? Information? β¦β¦β
Ten minutes later, Lu Yuan lay on the bed weakly, "War? Peace? Love? Marriage? Family ......"
Half an hour later, Lu Yuan, who was completely speechless, looked at the sky speechlessly.
"I remember the last moment, when I was playing a game......"
"Baldur's Gate?"
A holographic light screen appeared in front of him!
Information rolls up like a waterfall.

As soon as Lu Yuan wanted to say "yes", the system started. It's either a mental operation or it's bad...... Lu Yuan muttered, waiting for the surprise to come.

That's it! That's it! Lu Yuan happily jumped a few times in place!
Neurotic system, god-like attributes!
These attributes are definitely not as bad as the system says! The average attribute of the average person is between 9 and 12, with higher ones to 13 and 14, and lower ones to 7 and 8. Basically, that's it for civilians. Through hard training, professionals will make the main attribute about 18, the secondary attribute about 16, and the other attributes are slightly stronger than ordinary people.
As for the charm of "only" 14 points, Lu Yuan took a basin of water and took a cursory look at this face, although it looked very similar to the original, Lu Yuan still felt that it was more handsome. It seems that it really doesn't look good, Lu Yuanhan.
If the attribute only clarifies his own quality, then after the system is activated, the bonus of attributes to skills will be turned upside down! For example, the original level 5 alchemy, after increasing the intelligence by 6, has become a skill up to level 11! After the skill, there is a book symbol, and when you click on it, a lot of knowledge about making potions, copying scrolls, making wands, and so on floods into your mind. The knowledge was so rich and accurate that it far exceeded the alchemy knowledge he had learned in three years at the witchcraft grocery store. And he shuddered when he found that most of the knowledge he had worked so hard to learn over the past three years was either wrong or had hidden harm to the producer!
After the "forging process" bonus, you will get the resolution of ores, the forging of metals, and many crafting processes, alloy recipes, and so on.
There are also those that have no practical use, such as the "survival in the wild" skill, the added value to him is a book of Jianwan flora and fauna, which distinguishes in detail which plants can be eaten, etc., and the actual field skills are not involved at all. In short, the knowledge gained by the large bonus of this attribute to the skill is still random, good and bad.
