"Our journey is very dangerous, and we may encounter attacks from some evil organizations!" Qin Lun's smile became clearer, and he asked with a smile, "How about you, what dangers may you encounter?"
"We..." Leuer hesitated, "The dangers we may encounter are not very clear yet, but during the journey, some areas may need to pass through the underground world."
"Drow?!" Mileras's pupils shrank slightly, and he remained silent, listening to the conversation between Qin Lun and the dwarves.
Among the four major races of the elves, the sun elves and the moon elves may compete for the leadership position, but for the drow elves transformed from the dark elves, they are the enemies of life and death, and there is no room for compromise. The sun elves would spare no effort to do anything that could make the drow suffer.
In ancient times, the elves of the Kingdom of Tintagel escaped from the interface of the outer domain - Fairier, and migrated to the main material world - the continent of Faerun. Among the four great elves, the moon elves and the green elves are mild-tempered. After experiencing the great destruction of the interface, they are extremely eager for a peaceful and stable life.
However, the most powerful sun elves and dark elves at that time launched five crown wars successively because of differences in political power and theocracy. In the end, the dark elves were expelled to the dark area of the underground world and became drow elves. The original elf goddess Aiyushine became the current spider queen Rose.
The sun elves were also resented by all Faerun elves because they destroyed Maierita and Santa Osriel. At that time, the Waxingnta Empire was finally destroyed by the United Elves, and the Supreme Council and the royal family were completely annihilated. , the remaining sun elves moved out of the High Forest and became the Cormanthor elves who now lack the ancient heritage.
"Hehe, you see, we all need the help of others, why can't we go together." Qin Lun clapped his palms and chuckled, raised a finger and said, "In the end, there is only one question, whether our journeys overlap. Line, we are going north next, how about you?"
"We're going north too!" Leuer breathed a sigh of relief, "I don't know what your destination is..."
"Our next destination is Calimport, the capital of Calimshan, and then we will go all the way north, crossing Calimshan, Tethyr, and Amn." Qin Lun's eyes flashed brightly, and he slowly induced, " What about you?"
"We're going to the Silver Moon Alliance in the extreme north of the mainland!" Leuer's expression was a little disappointed, the elves' journeys only partly overlapped with theirs.
However, after thinking about it, it seems natural that the Silvermoon Federation is already in the northernmost part of Faerun, backed by the roof of the world. Except for the dwarves, I am afraid that few teams will go so far north.
Listening to Qin Lun's conversation with the old dwarf, the rest of the team all held back their laughter. The information Qin Lun said was true, but to a large extent he was trying to lure the dwarves.
It is true that the journey of the embassy will encounter danger, but it does not say where the danger comes from. Although the Zhentarim is an evil organization, ordinary people really can't provoke them. But the old dwarf didn't prepare a draft for Qin Lun's question in advance. Although he instinctively avoided mentioning drow, when it comes to the underground world, how could others not think of it!
The same is true for another problem. To go north from Calimshan, Tethyr and Amn are the only way to go. These three countries belong to the southwestern part of the mainland, all bordering on the endless sea, and lined up in the Sword Coast from south to north.
In terms of the ancient journey of the envoy, Qin Lun actually only told less than half of the journey. Although the destination is included in the words, it should be noted that he said "the next destination", not the "final destination". However, the dwarves were led out of the final destination. The Silver Moon Alliance was already in the extreme north of the continent, and there was no next stop.
"Silver Moon Alliance, the roof of the world, the ruins of the Santana dwarves..." The words of the old dwarf lingered in Mileras' ears, and a flash of lightning suddenly flashed in the mind of the sun elf prince, and Fuzhi thought of the elders of the clan who once said to him. One thing he talked about.
"Mithral Hall?! You want to find Mithral Hall, don't you?" Mileras blushed slightly, pointing at the old dwarf excitedly.
The faces of the dwarves turned dark, and the old dwarf Loyle raised his beard and glared fiercely at Qin Lun. At this moment, he finally came to his senses, the silver-haired elf in front of him was simply trying to lure him to tell the truth. Looking back, what he told himself were all irrelevant information, but he had completely leaked all the details.
As the most famous castle in the northern part of the dwarves, Mithral Hall can be described as thunderous. When it comes to the Silver Moon Alliance and the roof of the world, how could the elves not think of Mithral Hall.
"What about you? Where are you going?" Leuer suppressed his anger and asked through gritted teeth.
Qin Lun spread his hand with a smile and pointed to Mileras, but he closed his mouth tightly and did not speak again. After all, the leader of the envoy is Mileras, and he has done enough to do this. Whether he chooses to go with the dwarves next depends on the decision of the sun elf prince.
"We're going to Waterdeep City, and we'll visit the various elf courts along the way!" Unexpectedly, Mileras stated their final destination readily this time, obviously overturning his original thoughts, and decided to go with the dwarves. People walk together.
"Waterdeep City?! So you've been perfunctory to us just now!" The old dwarf's face was a little ugly, and he gave Qin Lun a vicious look again.
"Hehe, it's true that Tethyr and Amn have experiences, so it can't be considered perfunctory!" Mileras smoothed things over with a smile, but his subordinates secretly gave Qin Lun a thumbs up, "Now that we've said it, what's next? If you want to go together again, let everyone talk about their respective tasks!"
"Yes, but I don't want to talk to him anymore." The old dwarf turned his head away from Qin Lun angrily.
Qin Lun smiled and walked away silently, which made the old dwarf feel a little better. Anyway, after they finished discussing, Mileras would tell him the situation. What's more, during the negotiation process, he can also participate indirectly through Stark and others.
"Okay, Ferrar won't participate in the discussion later." Mileras gave Qin Lun a wink apologetically, "However, the mercenaries will be required to contribute along the way, see if they can stay and discuss. "
"For the mercenaries... the captain can stay!" Old Loyle snorted heavily, indicating that his mood was still not improving.
…
"Apostle No. 70053, you have triggered the hidden plot—exploring the Mithral Hall. This plot line belongs to a branch of the large-scale epic plot 'Mithral Hall'. The main storyline has not yet unfolded. After completing the branch plot, start from Torre The Warhammer family in the Er world will take over."
[Exploring Mithral Hall (task difficulty cannot be calculated for the time being): Shield Dwarf King Bruno Warhammer returned from Icewind Dale, and swore an oath in front of the Warhammer family symbol "bubbling beer mug", vowing to regain the pride of the dwarves - Northland Mithril Hall.
In response to King Bruno's call, the Xuefeng dwarves, who are also descendants of Santana, sent an outpost search party. In order to obtain the map to Mithral Hall in the Iron Star Fort, which was also the castle of the Santana Empire, and then go north to find the entrance of Mithral Hall under the roof of the world.
Mission objective: Find the entrance of Mithral Hall, and try to explore the inside of Mithral Hall.
Mission rewards: Distributed according to the contribution of the apostles in this mission, the stay time will no longer increase.
Special reminder to the apostle: If during the quest, if you kill the legendary creature entrenched in the Mithril Hall—the shadow dragon "Shining Shadow" or the king of the gray dwarves, the quest evaluation will be upgraded by one level, and important promotions below the legendary profession will be issued depending on the contribution class items.
Reminder: Since the main plot of this epic plot line is still one year away from this time point, Broken Starry Sky will issue "special space-time positioning balls" according to the exploration speed of the apostle team.
Tip: If due to the butterfly effect of the apostle, the epic plot is advanced or postponed, Broken Starry Sky will give double the extra reward of exploration according to the development of the situation.
Tip: A branch of the main plot of 'Mithral Hall', 'The Bubbling Beer Mug', has already been accepted by other apostle teams. After accepting the task of 'Exploring Mithral Hall', the combined team of Lost and Fortress will form a competitive team relationship with it.]
"No, it's such a big task again!" Seeing the reminder on the death list, Qin Lun was a little dumbfounded.
No wonder Broken Starry Sky reminded them that the world of Toril belongs to the newly developed mission world. Exploring the world is almost always an unknown, and meeting a group of dwarves randomly is another epic task.
Robin and Stark, who were listening to the conversation between Mileras and Leuer, returned soon. However, neither of them had the joy of receiving the epic plot, but they seemed full of doubts.
Mileras has already agreed to go with the dwarves. The sun elf prince does not itch if there are too many lice, and does not worry about debts.
Anyway, there is already a Zhentarim Society, as long as the dwarves do not hinder the progress of the ancient road, and the harassment of the drow elves seems to be fine. Maybe switch to the underground world in some sections, maybe you can avoid the Zhentarim killer.
However, for the apostles, it was a bit distressing. Although he had seen the mission, Qin Lun was not yet familiar with the specific situation, and Stark quickly recounted the previous conversation to him.
Mithral Hall is the most famous dwarven castle in the Northland, even Faerun. It was once the northern stronghold of the ancient Santana Empire. Hundreds of years ago, the castle fell into the hands of a shadow dragon named Shimmer.
Because the dwarves of the Warhammer family dug too deep when digging for Mithril, destroying a boundary node between the main material interface and the shadow plane, thus liberating the shadow dragon into Faerûn. Glitter Shadow slew most of Mithral Hall's dwarves, and took possession of Mithral Hall's treasures with its servants of shadow monsters and duergar.
It stands to reason that the apostles have absolutely no reason to give up if they can receive an epic mission, but the key now is that there is a dragon in Mithral Hall. This is not the gigantic salamander that is suspected to be a legendary creature, but a living dragon. And this dragon is not alone, there are a bunch of shadow monsters around him, and a whole tribe of gray dwarf servants.
"The dwarves got information from the Warhammer family that this shadow dragon named Shimmering Shadow is at least a top-level legendary creature, and may even be a demigod who has stepped into the realm of the gods. According to Robin's judgment, this task is not ours. Even if all members of the two large teams of Lost and Tianfu are here, I am afraid that there is enough to drink a pot."
Stark looked at Qin Lun resentfully, "You say we will do it, or not!"
