Because of using tokens to enter the world of Toril, Qin Lun and the others lost the quest guidance for Broken Starry Sky.
However, these three guys are growing fast and have won gold-level mission evaluations many times. Therefore, Broken Starry Sky still gave a little plot clue in their drop locations.
Like where Qin Lun was put in, the underground waterway network. This network of waterways connects many underground dens of the Baldur's Gate black organization, and there are many small plots that can be cut into.
However, their luck was a bit off, and they only found the secret shrine of the Umberley Church. Because the Polar Queen is too ruthless, they really don't want to face each other head-on at the beginning, so the three of them deliberately didn't touch the bad luck of the Umberley Church.
Otherwise, if they investigate further, they might be able to know why the Amberley Church set up an underground temple in the city uncharacteristically. This is obviously an important clue about Baldur's Gate, the situation of this large port city.
As for the place where Rand and Hill were put in—the oak barrel tavern, there is naturally such a plot clue. If the three of them just had a vague feeling before, now Qin Lun is very sure that the clue lies in the drunken drunkard in front of him.
Of course, the reminder of the broken starry sky is hidden enough. If the three of them did not choose to return to the Oak Barrel Tavern, then this plot line would not be able to unfold.
"Guests, do you know this guy?" There was a hint of surprise in the waitress's eyes, but at the same time she was a little happy. She has good eyesight in places like Oak Barrel Tavern all the year round.
Although the three people in front of her were dressed in ordinary clothes, they gave generous tips and turned a blind eye to the complicated environment of the oak barrel tavern. Even if their faces were relatively unfamiliar, she could guess that the three should be mercenaries or adventurers.
Such people are usually not too stingy when they have ample money. This alcoholic owed the tavern many days of food and travel expenses, and if she could help the tavern owner get it back, she would also get a commission.
Qin Lun didn't answer the waitress immediately, but knelt down to help the drunkard tidy up his appearance.
Although the alcoholic described it as sloppy, his eyes were closed tightly in a drowsy state, and the beard on his chin had not been taken care of for many days, and it looked like weeds. But on closer inspection, this person is actually not very old, probably around thirty at most, or even less than thirty years old.
Although the clothes on his body were stained and torn in many places, it could still be seen that it was a set of exquisitely made waistcoat with a flared silk shirt with lace, lantern breeches and dirty riding boots.
If you match him with a cashmere coat and a chain pocket watch, he will definitely be a standard upper-class gentleman. Maybe he owed so much wine bills at the Oak Barrel Tavern, and it was because the boss saw his aristocratic attire.
However, if he failed to repay his debts many times, no matter how good his skin was, he could do nothing for him. At least now the owner and waiter of this tavern have clearly lost their patience. If Qin Lun and the others hadn't come over, this guy would have been stripped naked and drowned in a dark sewer somewhere.
"Prepare two suites for us, and take this guy to clean it, and let us know when he wakes up." Qin Lun instructed the two burly male waiters.
The two male waiters gave each other a wink, and looked at the female waiter with a look of embarrassment on purpose. Little people have the wisdom of little people, of course they know what to do in this situation.
"Guests, you are embarrassing us, this kid has already owed the tavern..." the waitress frowned and said with a smile.
"We will help him pay off the credit. He is one of our former employers. Since we met here, we can't leave him alone." Qin Lun smiled and interrupted the waitress.
Rand and Hill glanced at each other, and Fireworks took out two silver coins from his pocket at the right time, and handed them to the two male waiters holding the alcoholic respectively. Hill smiled and patted the wooden bench, motioning for the maid to sit beside him, and secretly stuffed a goddess gold coin into her palm.
"Tell us about his recent situation and what happened to him that made him what he is now."
The waitress lowered her head and glanced at the golden light between her fingers, and said with a smile on her face: "That shit... your friend came to the tavern a month ago, and he had a pretty good caravan at that time. Baldur's Gate is right The caravans that came from such a long distance are very caring, I heard that his goods are selling well... "
The waitress paused as she spoke, clutching the gold coin tightly in her hand, and looked at the three of them expectantly.
"Beautiful lady, being greedy is not a good habit." Qin Lun and the three looked at each other and smiled, and Hill took out another gold coin and shook it, but he didn't give it to her right away, "Let's be more specific, this is The last."
"After he finished his business, the caravan originally planned to leave. But then it seemed that they heard some news and stayed in the tavern again. A few days later, they found a few mercenaries and went out of the city again. I don't know if they What happened in the wilderness, he was the only one left when he came back, and then... he kept drinking and became like this." The waitress smiled embarrassingly.
"Do you know what news he received?" Rand asked cautiously.
"I don't know, he didn't tell anyone in the tavern." The waitress pursed her lips and spread her hands and said, "It doesn't matter to him, but the old butler next to him is very cautious and often reminds him of his behavior. If If the old man is still there, he probably won't be what he is now."
"Do you still recognize the few mercenaries who went out with him? What did they look like?" Hill asked with a frown.
"It's not very common for them to come to the tavern. They seem to be newcomers who have been here for a few months." The waitress tilted her head and recalled, thinking, "However, some old mercenaries in the tavern once chatted, The strength of those mercenaries seems to be very strong, especially a silver-haired female elf and a red-haired female knight who always carries a big cloth bag."
"Elisten..." Qin Lun tightened his palms and asked with a sullen face and frowning, "Describe to me the appearance of that female elf in detail."
"I can't tell." The waitress smiled wryly, "Her face is always painted with colorful paint, as if she doesn't want people to see her face clearly. However, some wretched guys say she must be a big beauty, The oil paint on the face is related to the military position, I don't care too much."
"It's not wrong...it should be Elistine, so the other red-haired female knight is a follower of Lady Lovita—Idriya! Why didn't they go north with Milleras?" Qin Lun lowered his head and said softly Talking to himself, no longer pay attention to what the waitress said next.
Hill glanced at Qin Lun who was lost in thought, then turned his head and continued to question the maid. However, when the waitress said this, she couldn't give much useful information, so she finally took the gold coins and was sent away by him.
"That... the female elf named Elistine was your friend from the last adventure?" Hill and Rand waited for Qin Lun to recover from his contemplation, and looked at him with a smile on his face and blinked.
As for the so-called friend, Hill has already been very reserved. The five murderers often tease and joke with each other, and there are two things that they never tire of. One is to guess the shepherd's usual three meals and rations, and the other is the many romantic debts Qin Lun owed in the mission world.
Hill, who was older and a self-proclaimed Catholic, had no interest in women. Rand's wife and daughter died in his early years, and he never got over the trauma in his heart. Disciple Hansen does have some fun in the entertainment area of Devil's Corner from time to time, but that's just for physical needs.
As for the clown Grant, let's not mention it, that guy seems to have no emotional intelligence at all. Seeing a beautiful creature, the general idea is to make it into mask fragments, lust or something, to him, it is just a cloud.
Only Qin Lun was different. The other murderers had heard more than once that he was in contact with a plot beauty or a beautiful apostle in a certain mission world, and these beauties were all very strong.
Hill once joked that even if Qin Lun didn't ask them to form a group, as long as he gathered all the beauties who had an affair with him, he could form a seductive and powerful apostle team by himself.
"Elisten is the elf druid I mentioned to you before. After entering this world, I thought that after such a long time, she will go to Yongmeet Island with the elf envoy, or has she already Back at Anker Elven Court, I never thought she was still at Baldur's Gate a month ago." Qin Lun said calmly.
"Will it be related to you?" Hill and Rand looked at each other and asked meaningfully.
"No way..." Qin Lun shook his head, but he hesitated in his heart.
The last time Qin Lun withdrew from the world of Toril at Baldur's Gate was roughly at the beginning of summer, and now it is the autumn of 1355 in the valley calendar, with an interval of more than three months.
If Elisten and Idriya had appeared here a month ago, then it is possible that they stayed at Baldur's Gate for more than two months after Qin Lun and the other apostles left the mission world.
The sun elf prince Mileras has a heavy responsibility, and it is absolutely impossible for him to stay here for such a long time. Emily Silverhand, the descendant of the Queen of Silvermoon, her magic teacher Angelo, and the dwarf prince Lorraine also have their own missions, and they will definitely not stay.
Although Elistine is powerful, she has very little contact with the human world. Even with Idriya's company, it is difficult for her to tolerate the lifestyle of human cities. Qin Lun didn't think she had the ability to live in Baldur's Gate for more than two months, but there was always a thought in his heart, telling him that it was possible.
"No matter how you say it, when that guy wakes up at night, we will know the general situation." Qin Lun said with some anxiety.
"By the way, we don't know what that alcoholic has to do with you?" Rand asked in surprise, "Before entering Toril, you didn't seem to have mentioned such a guy to us, and it seems that he It's not like a big beauty who disguises herself as a man... "
"Puff! Cough cough..." Qin Lun spit out the drink he just drank, and couldn't help but annoyed, "That guy's name is Xifu Hulan, and he is a noble young master. In order to conceal our identity, we once accepted Hired by his chamber of commerce... who do you think I am?"
Hill and Rand looked at each other and smiled without saying a word.
