"Commander, I'll go to Char with you!" Lago lowered his head and pondered for a while, then said firmly, "I'm home all over the world anyway, and Baldur's Gate is no different from Char. ”

"Rick, I'm ......" Compared to Largo's bluntness, Winnie was a little hesitant.

"Winnie, don't say it. You are different from Largo, your family is in Waterdeep, and you always have to go back after training, how can you follow me! Rick smiled and shook his head, "Although the Bloodthirsty Mercenary Regiment has been disbanded, we are still friends, and one day, we will meet again." ”

Winnie looked up and clutched her staff, but her gaze slowly darkened. As a woman and a mage, she doesn't care what family is not a family, but she always has parents and relatives who care, and it is indeed impossible to follow Rick to Char's Kingdom.

Rick smiled calmly, casually glanced at Qin Lun and the others in the distance, but suddenly lowered his voice and said, "I don't want to say bad things about other companions, this adventure is also worth it, there is nothing to regret."

But one thing must be warned, Winnie, neither Miss Linda nor Philar should be allowed to join in the adventures if they continue to invite you on adventures. ”

Hearing Rick's words, a wry smile appeared on Largo's face, "Although these guys have lived and died with us for so many days, they have never revealed their true identities, and I still dare not trust them." ”

Rick shook his head indifferently, "Knowing who they are may not be a good thing for us. Forget it, although I am not afraid of life and death, I don't want to die in vain. ”

……

Just as Rick and the others were whispering, Qin Lun and Mastasha also had something to communicate about.

"After exiting the Troll's Claw, are you going back to the Anchor Elven Court?" The Highland Elf asked tentatively.

Qin Lun looked at Mastaxia, lowered his head and pretended to ponder. They are now tasked with the branch task of the founding of the Silver Moon, which is an epic task with huge benefits, and it is naturally impossible to give up. However, in order to carry out this task, they must have the support of the master harpist in front of them, or the harpist league behind her.

This is not to say that without Mastasia, they will not be able to go to the Silver Moon Alliance, but the strength of the three of them is not enough to support this epic mission.

The last time Qin Lun entered the world of Torrell, he also carried out the epic mission of "Ancient Path".

At that time, he had two full silver teams around him, as well as the Sun Elf guard guarding Milleras, and the Snow Peak Dwarves and Idria on the way, but there were still very few people who finally reached Baldur's Gate.

Now there are only Hill and Rand around him, and the location of the mission is an extremely unfamiliar northland, if there is no other force to help, rashly start the mission, and face the killers of the Santarin Society, it will definitely be ten deaths.

The three murderers were proud from the bottom of their hearts, but they were not arrogant enough to ignore a qiē, which was stupidity, not self-confidence. So they need the support and help of the Harper's League.

It's just that Mastasia, as a master harpist, even if he is not a professional spy for harpists like bards, is also extremely sensitive in his mind, and he is not so easy to deceive. Qin Lun needed a valid reason to dispel the doubts of the highland elves so that they could participate in this epic plot in a grand manner.

"No, we don't plan to go back to the Anchor Elven Court right away, we'll go straight to the Northlands after the Troll's Claws." Countless thoughts flowed through Qin Lun's heart in an instant, and he finally decided to tell the truth.

"Why? The Anker Elven Court now integrates the Thorn Forest and the Winter Forest, and the Mill Forest to the west seems to be interested in joining you. King Tynequelas is planning to establish the Shining Moon Court, and Theopia is one of the most important legacies of the Elven Court, so don't you plan to go back as a prince to help your people? ”

Mastasia blinked and asked slyly, "Don't sue me, you really went north to sabotage their plot for the sake of that little grudge with the Santarin Society in the first place, right?" ”

Qin Lun was speechless for a while, the highland elves were really not easy to fool. The far-fetched reasons given a few days ago obviously did not win her trust.

"My vendetta against the Santarins doesn't matter, an attempted assassination won't keep me thinking about it for that long!" Qin Lun shook his head slowly, and said with a smile, "Mastasya, since you have been following the Anker Elven Court for so long, then you should know the intention of King Tynequelas in sending me to participate in the Sun Elf envoy group in the first place, right?" ”

"Well, I know! King Tyne Quilas hopes that the Moon Elves will share in the glory of revisiting the Ancient Path and increase the prestige of the Anker Elven Court in order to integrate the Moon Elf Court in the south-central part of the continent to compete against the Sun Court established on the Eternal Gathering Island in the future. Mastasha said without hesitation.

King Tynequelas's original plan was a conspiracy, which could be seen clearly by people with a little brains on the mainland, including the Harpists Alliance, of course.

"Now that you know, you should understand why I went to the Silver Moon Alliance instead of returning to the Anker Elven Court."

Qin Lun sighed, the thoughts in his heart gradually became clearer, he sorted out his words, and continued, "King Tynequelas gave me the status of Prince Seopia in the first place, not to recognize my inheritance rights, but only to give me an excuse to participate in the envoy corps in the name of righteousness.

Although they are all part of the Moon Elves, the Moon Elves behind me are the Jondar Moon Elves, not the Anker Moon Elves, and I am different from the orthodox Moon Elf Prince of the Anker Elven Court.

In the future Shining Moon Court, the Jondar Moon Elves are an insignificant small tribe, and their future status and distribution of benefits in the Royal Court will depend entirely on the personal prestige of me and Elistine. Walking the Ancient Path would make the other Moon Elves respect me, but it wasn't enough for them to face the Jundar Moon Elves squarely, and besides, I hadn't actually walked the Ancient Path either. ”

The Ancient Path begins in the Comanso Forest and ends on the Isle of Eternal Gathering, with the last stop on the continent of Faeron being Waterdeep. Qin Lun withdrew from the Torrell world at the Baldur's Gate, so naturally he couldn't be regarded as having completed the ancient road.

"You mean you still need to continue to increase your prestige, so that the future tribe of Moon Elves gathered under the Shining Moon King's Court must face you and the Jundar Moon Elves?" Mastasya's eyes flashed and he muttered.

"It's not to look at it, it's to look up. One level better than others can only usher in jealousy, but countless levels better than others will become great, so that others can't even give birth to jealousy. Qin Lun smiled without changing his face.

"In addition, there is another point, the future Moon Fairy Court is different from the Sun King Court on Eternal Gathering Island, and it will also have to face the pressure of other human powers on the mainland. I don't think any race on the continent wants to see a united and powerful Moon Elf Court by our side, so we also need a strong ally. ”

Qin Lun said with a smile, "For the elves of the continent, all the human kingdoms on the continent are not suitable for alliance, but the Silver Moon Alliance, which has a complex race, is different. Elves and half-elves make up more than 30% of the population, and there are many elven druids and elven mages in their upper echelons, and even the appearance of Erasdra Silverhand, the lord of Silvermoon City, is also half-elf. ”

(The reason why Qin Lun said that Erastro's appearance was half-elf, not blood.) That's because Erasdra's mother, El Sander, is the human incarnation of the goddess of magic, Mithra, and the seven sisters of the Northland, led by Erastro, are all daughters of gods, and the bloodline of Mithra's chosen people cannot be said to be simple half-elves. ）

"Traveling to the Northlands to rescue the Council of Alliance Lords led by Erastro and reaching some kind of alliance with the Silvermoon Alliance will be the biggest surprise of the establishment of the Shining Moon Court, and it will also make your reputation reach the peak of the future Shining Moon Court, comparable to the first Shining Moon Elf King Tyne Queyras Nightstar."

Mastasha said to himself thoughtfully, "In this way, even if the elf tribe behind you is not strong enough, you can't be the second elf king, I'm afraid no one dares to ignore the status and interests of the Jundar Moon Elf." ”

Qin Lun smiled silently, he could see that although Mastasya had not completely relieved his doubts, at least the reason he gave was impeccable. Bundled with the Harpist Master, you can also get the intelligence support of the Harpist Alliance.

"By the way, you and Miss Linda have been discussing privately for the past two days, should she also be involved in this matter?" Qin Lun's eyes flashed, and he asked quietly.

"Linda really wants to be part of this 'novel' adventure." A smile appeared on the Highland Elf's face at the mention of her new friend, "It's just that she's worried that she will be grounded by her teacher immediately after she goes back, so it's not sure yet." However, she was willing to provide us with a quick shortcut to the Northland. ”

"What kind of shortcut?" Qin Lun's eyes lit up, there was less than half a month left for the celebration in Silver Moon City, even if they arrived in the Northland, they would need time to investigate the conspirators of the Santalin Society, and if there was no other way, in fact, time was not enough.

"Linda had already handed over her job at the Mercenary Guild before she came out this time, and she was supposed to accompany the teacher back to Candle Castle a week ago." "According to her, the Arcane scholars of Candlekeep have built several large teleportation circles underneath Candlekeep in order to quickly reach all corners of the continent, and we may be able to use these teleportation circles to travel to the Northlands. ”

"Candle Castle? You mean that famous mage fortress! Qin Lun frowned slightly, this was an unexpected surprise, "If they refuse to provide teleportation, we won't even have enough time to go to the Silver Moon Alliance." ”

Located at the end of the Lion's Road, Candle Castle is a cliff fortress across the sea from the continent of Faeron, just southwest of Baldur's Gate, but it is about a hundred miles away from their current location, opposite to the direction to the Northlands.

"Don't worry, Candle is not just a mage fortress, it's an ocean of knowledge open to all, the world's largest paid library. Even without Linda's introduction, they would have provided delivery services as long as we paid a sufficient price. Mastasha said unapprehensively.
