Chapter 626: Travel Strategy
With the end of the Neverwinter plague event, the last thing left is naturally to share the spoils——— and reward the heroes.
This is not a game, after completing the quest to give you some experience points and gold coins, it is over, considering everyone's contribution to Neverwinter, the Lord of Nashr also gave the greatest sincerity——— everyone can make a wish, as long as it is within his ability, it can be fulfilled!
Those who received the reward included Kasim and Rosha, who were tasked with helping Erebeth recover the ingredients for the plague antidote, and then Duanmu Locust, Augis, Amilia, and Lokihi.
As a paladin of Tyre and a member of the Silver Knights, Emilia belongs to the "system", so there is no need to mention the reward for the time being, after all, if nothing else, the merit of defending Neverwinter is enough for her to be promoted for a lifetime. As long as she doesn't make principled mistakes like Erebes, she shouldn't have much of a problem.
As for Qasim and Roxia, they didn't have much to ask for, and they knew that although they helped to recover the raw materials for the antidote, they were not on their side to prevent the fall of Neverwinter, so they asked Lord Nashr for some gold coins and magic weapons, and planned to travel around and continue their adventures——— after all, they were still young and not yet ready to retire in Neverwinter.
On the contrary, Luo Qixi stayed with great interest, saying that she wanted to stay in Neverwinter to retire, after all, due to her embarrassing identity, it is always easy to be discriminated against when she goes elsewhere. But there is no need to worry about this problem in Neverwinter, after all, he is the hero of Neverwinter, and he finally found such a safe place, and Luo Qixi does not plan to leave.
As for Duanmu Locust and Ogis......... They didn't plan to stay in Neverwinter for long, so they only asked for some treasure symbolically, and of course, Duanmu Huai did get a good thing——— "Chamber Crystal Ball", which is an enchanted equipment that looks like a toy crystal ball, and can be used once a day in the "Mage Mansion......... Well, it can be regarded as fulfilling a wish of Duanmu Huai.
Of course, Duanmu Huai didn't plan to leave this world just like that, he finally came here, and he hadn't taken Ogis with him for a long time, and the little girl had been very unhappy, so Duanmu Huai also planned to take Okis around this world.
Anyway, the black hole bomb over there hasn't been built yet, so it's not in a hurry, is it?
After all, this world, like the world of Cthulhu, has many places of interest that players flock to.
For example——— since you're here, why don't you go to Icewind Dale to see if there's a blackskin ranger running around?
Then stop by the dwarven Mithril Hall?
Not to mention Silvermoon City, the pearl of the Northlands, why don't you take a photo with the city lord Erastro?
If you are idle and bored and have nothing to do, why don't you go to the stronghold of the red-robed mage, Sayr? Experience the unique customs of the Bald Mage?
Not to mention Baldur's Gate, which is a landmark city in this world, if you don't go to make a card, you are embarrassed to say that you have been to Faerun?
Another example of going to hell for a 10-day bloody trip?
Or maybe go to the astral plane to grab the silver sword of the Giss Yankees?
There are so many fun things to do in this world.
And that's not even counting raiding the Rainbow Dragon's home, arguing with the Bronze Dragon, or slapping Mistrano's Locks.........
Heck, that's leather, and I want to try everything.
It's just that this world is not as miserable as the world of Cthulhu that is plagued by players, and the reason is very simple, that is, there are really many powerful psionics in this world, and sometimes players have to capsize if they are not careful. So here, everyone is playing and making trouble, but it's still very measured.
Oh, by the way, I remember that there was also a group of idiots in the game who didn't know how to live or die in the imprint city, and then they were directly sealed into the subspace debris by the lady and froze the number......... I still asked for help from DM to release it.
Originally, Duanmu Huai planned to go north to Icewind Dale first, and then visit the Mithril Hall. Unfortunately, Lord Nashr told him that the road to Icewind Dale had been completely closed due to the recent civil unrest in Luskan, and no one was allowed to enter or leave. In this case, Duanmu Huai didn't bother to ask for trouble again, so he retreated and planned to head south to Waterdeep City, and then take a boat through Sword Bay to Baldur's Gate.
Anyway, when you come to Faeron and you don't go to Baldur's Gate to take a photo, isn't it in vain?
After determining the itinerary, Duanmu Huai and his party left Neverwinter.
The reason why it is said is a line is because......... This trip wasn't just him and Ogis.
First of all, the two adventurer boys and girls——— Qasim and Roxia also joined in, they originally planned to go on adventures everywhere, and the first stop was to go to Baldur's Gate to see the world, since everyone has the same destination, it is better to go with a companion.
In addition, it was Emilia ——— the paladin said that he also needed to go out to practice again, so he followed Duanmu Huai and his party on the road to the south.
"Well, then, I wish you all a smooth journey, the outside world is very dangerous."
Standing at the gate of Neverwinter, Luo Qixi looked like she was out of the sea of suffering, smiling and waving at everyone.
"I'm in this warm home, waiting for you to come back and tell me stories of adventure."
"Huh."
Looking at Luo Qixi's appearance, Duanmu Huai smiled.
"Don't think you can stay out of it, you didn't expect you to be so stupid as a warlock."
"Uh......... Where am I stupid? ”
"You'll know when the time comes."
Duanmu Huai smiled, didn't say anything, but said hello to the others, and then turned to leave, while Luo Qixi glared at his back viciously, and then stomped his foot and turned to leave.
Don't talk to this nasty guy anymore!
Duanmu Huai didn't care about Luo Qixi's resentment towards him, in fact, along the way, he didn't forget to tell others about the places he had been to when he was playing. Duanmu Huai's eloquence is average, but luckily these people are also very good listeners, and Emilia has been in Neverwinter since she was born, and has hardly left it too far. And the same goes for Kasim and Rosha, both of them are natives of the Northlands, to put it bluntly, they are hillbillies, and they have never been to a city bigger than Neverwinter in their lives——— or even Neverwinter, they have been there for the first time before.
Not to mention places like Waterdeep and Baldur's Gate.
"This continent is big and dangerous, and of course, it's not just dragons or lichs that you need to focus on, in fact, a lot of the time, kobolds and gnolls and things like that are more troublesome."
"Huh? But kobolds are supposed to be timid creatures, right? ”
Hearing Duanmu Huai's admonition, Luo Xia blinked curiously.
"Kasim and I also encountered a few kobolds when we were on adventures, and I felt that they were all weak and not very combat-minded."
"That's why it's dangerous, just as herbivores are far more dangerous than carnivores in the forest."
“…………… Be......... Is that so? ”
"Of course, as long as the carnivores are well fed, they are not much of a threat. But herbivores are different in that they are hunted at all times, so they are prone to stress reactions. The same is true of kobolds, who are more cunning because they are weak, of course......... It's a little too early for you now, but I think you'll understand one day. ”
In this way, in the midst of everyone's chatting, time passed minute by minute, and soon, when night fell, Duanmu Huai also took out his crystal ball and fiddled with it——— and then saw a magical light shine out, hitting the air next to him to produce a portal.
Naturally, it's the Mage's Mansion inside!
"Alright, let's go in and rest."
As he spoke, Duanmu Huai was about to enter the mage's mansion, but at this time, she saw that Emilia reached out and grabbed him.
"Mr. Duanmu......... I'd like to talk to you alone, can I? ”
"Alone?"
Hearing Amilia's request, Duanmu Huai glanced at Ogis, who showed a dissatisfied expression next to him, and reached out to touch the head of his little padded jacket.
"Well, only for a moment."
Then, he spoke.
