Chapter 5：New life may be not so wonderful

Niklas, a rogue in Baldur's Gate.

But what he actually does is the job of a broker. He collects some stolen goods and helps blend some underground business.

Or help the members of the guild find some "jobs" and get some commission from them.

Niklas has a wide range of people, even in "Flame Fist", there are several small officials he can talk to. Usually, it's a cinch to catch a thief or something from prison.

"Touch!" Touch! " He tapped lightly on the attic window.

After a while, sleepy Luna opened the window. "Damn it, can't you come in through the door?"

"Then ask your landlord."

Niklas jumped in quickly and looked outside. After seeing that there were no pedestrians on the street, he closed the window.

"Ha, look at your head, how many times is this?" Brother, you have to take care of your body." 

"Come on, Nicholas. As long as you can come in on a normal path at a normal time, I will surely live longer! " As Luna spoke, she began to remove the bandage on her head. The potion was really good, and all the trauma had healed.

"I need a moment." Luna went to get water to wash up.

Niklas seemed to be bored sitting in the same chair that William had sat yesterday, but his eyes were scanning the roof, under the bed and other places where he could hide things.

When Luna came back, she saw his appearance and smiled. "Don't look for it, this time it's here."

As he spoke, he picked up the pillow on the bed and opened it, revealing more than a dozen bottles of potions, large and small.

Only one of the two medical potions William had brought yesterday was used, and the rest was here.

"These are normal potions. These are slightly less effective. The rest can be used as poison." Luna put the potion on the table and divided it into three piles.

Some of these potions were stolen by him with his dexterous wrist, and some were "scrap products".

But these things can generate value when placed in the thieves' guild. For example, poisonous ones can be used for assassination, and defective products can be used to pit fat sheep, but that's none of Luna's business.

He was only one of the "Thieves Guild's purchase channels", and it was still a low-end kind.

"300 gold." After reading it, Nicholas quoted a price.

Luna directly scratched the pile of four bottles of normal potions to the side, "Yes!" 300 gold for you these! "

"No, 400 gold!" Sincere price! No more. "

Luna picked up the potion William had brought. "This bottle costs 300 gold coins on the market … Look, I will grow too."

After the final argument, all the potions were sold for 950 gold coins.

Being a mage apprentice is free of charge, excluding food and accommodation. Selling some alchemy products is his only source of income.

 "Hey, Nick, are we brothers?" After the transaction, Luna seemed to casually ask.

"Shit, if you talk about raising the price again, we will be enemies!"

"Fuck you, I'm serious."

"It depends on the situation. If you have anything to do, tell me first. I'll charge less at most if I can do it."

"I've decided to be your enemy."

"Dog shit!" Okay, you boss. Go ahead, this time it's free. "

 "Hey, brother! Welcome back! " Luna exaggerated.

"Speak quickly." Nicholas curled his lips in dissatisfaction and looked outside. "It's almost dawn. I have to leave quickly."

"Nick, I heard someone say that you can buy some good things in the Thieves Guild. Can you introduce me to see them?"

"Going to the Guild?" Nicholas looked embarrassed. It was troublesome to bring outsiders into the Guild, but it wasn't too difficult either.

But on second thought, this kid has earned at least 5,000 gold coins from me. He doesn't seem to know how to spend money. He must have saved quite a lot. This is a big fat sheep! Go back and make a good calculation with that bitch Black Lily. In the past few months, at least half of the capital will be returned.

"Good!" Don't sleep tonight, wait until I come to you! "

 After saying that, he opened the window, but there was no sound. A few jumps disappeared into the alley in the distance.

 Luna looked around enviously and closed the window. He still had big things to do.

 He locked the door and acted as if he was absent, so that the sought apprentices would leave by themselves.

After checking it again, confirming that no one would peep here, he softly said "system"...

Yes, he is no longer sure that he is from this world now.

Because just as the transaction was completed, a line of words suddenly appeared in front of his eyes: "Valuation +1"!

At that time, he almost forced himself to not cry out, while Nicholas seemed to have completely ignored the line of words, just packing up the potion for himself.

Those memories in his sleep surged in, as if he understood many, many things in an instant.

Maybe it wasn't a dream, maybe it was a dream now, maybe it was a time travel, maybe it was something messy, he didn't care!

 What he knew was that he had finally obtained the capital to gain a foothold! Got the capital to get rid of the bait status! He obtained the capital to become a strong man!

 He finally confirmed that this was the one called "Baldur's Gate" in his memory, which had the same name as the city in which he lived, and it was also a game describing the story of this city.

The Evil God Baal, a high-level divine power, had long predicted his fall.

Therefore, with the support of his own temple, he began to plan his resurrection.

For this reason, he began to plant seeds in various races in the main plane, ranging from dragons, elves, humans, to goblins and kobolds, leaving behind a large number of heirs in the main plane.

As these children grow up, they will continue to lean to the dark side under the influence of Barr's blood, and violent and dark experiences will accumulate in their lives. These children will bring killing and darkness to every corner of Faerun, and nourish Barr's blood in secret.

They will wage wars and conspiracies with each other, and those who survive will get all of the dead.

When all of Baal's divine power is gathered into one heir, Baal can be resurrected from the heir with the help of his priests and return to the throne.

Rita, a great merchant of the Gate of Winning, was one of the members of the Iron Throne Business Alliance. After the Cormier Kingdom issued a ban on the Iron Throne merchants, he submitted his plan to the Iron Throne Council-to pollute the iron ore of Sakai in the name of Santalin, and secretly mine new iron ore in the Cloak Forest.

By then, the Iron Throne Commercial Alliance will take advantage of the iron ore crisis to completely monopolize the iron ore and arms trade north of Baldur's Gate.

His son, actually one of Baal's children left behind on earth, Shalvorak is responsible for the Iron Throne's plans for the part of Sword Bay.

What Rita doesn't know is that Shalvorak, as an adult, learns the truth that he is the son of Baal in a dream.

He went to Candlecastle to read Alando's prophecy, and after contacting the Church of Baal, he confirmed that Baal's children would move towards the throne of becoming gods in the killing.

So he began to rely on Rita's plan to plan a killing, involving Baldur's Gate, Anm and other forces, and plotting a killing that was no less inferior from the point of view of God.

At the same time, Chaneum, the adopted son of Glean, the mage and monk of Candlecastle, and the protagonist of this work, is also one of Barr's children.

After Glean's death, he will gather a "team of adventurers" to uncover the truth of Sakai pollution, pick up the robber camp, flood the cloak forest iron mine, and destroy the plot to murder the Grand Duke. Finally, the two children of Barr had a life-and-death duel in Barr's temple!

He knew that Nicholas in front of him would give Chaneum, the son of Baal, a task in the future, eventually involving the whole thieves' guild in the battle at the upper level of Baldur's Gate; He knew his cousin William, would die in an encounter, and contributed a mage's robe and a large sum of experience to Chaneum; He knew that William's teacher, Ramasis, would have a bad relationship with another archmage because of a goblin; The Iron Throne would launch a rebellion that would shake the entire upper echelons of Baldur's Gate.

 Of course, if these things only gave him some opportunities, then the kind of thing called "Goldfinger" could completely change his life.

"A panel? Properties? Message? ..."

Ten minutes later, Luna lay weakly on the bed. "War? Peace? Love? Marriage? Family... "

 Half an hour later, Luna, who was completely speechless, looked at the sky speechlessly.

"I remember that at the last moment, I was playing a game …"

"Baldur's Gate?"

A holographic screen suddenly appeared in front of him!

 The message rolled like a waterfall.

 System starts self-test...

 QWDD # @ $$# T% GFG% ^ SDFSRGYFERFJ ￥...

 System damage...

 Looking for matching rules...

 The match succeeded...

 Start generating...

[System initialization completed, is it officially enabled?]

Just as Luna was about to say "yes", the system started.

Either it's an operation of mind or it's broken … Luna muttered, waiting for the surprise to come.

Points remaining: 0

That's it! That's it! Luna jumped in place a few times with joy!

A psycho-like system, a god-like attribute!

These attributes are definitely not as unbearable as the system says! The average attribute line of ordinary people is between 9 and 12, with the higher ones reaching 13 and 14, and the lower ones reaching 7 and 8.

Basically that's what civilians do.

Through hard training, professionals will make their main attributes around 18, secondary attributes around 16, and other attributes will be slightly stronger than ordinary people.

As for the charm of "only" 14 o'clock, Luna took a basin of water and made a rough observation of this face. Although it looked very similar to the original one, Luna still felt more handsome.

It seems that it really doesn't look good, Luna Khan.

If the attributes only clarified his own quality, then after the system was activated, the bonus of attributes to skills would change earth-shaking! For example, alchemy, which was originally level 5, became a level 11 skill after increasing his intelligence by 6! After the skill, there is a symbol of a book. After clicking on it, a lot of knowledge about making potions, copying scrolls, making magic wands and so on poured into my mind.

The richness and accuracy of his knowledge far exceeded the alchemy knowledge he had learned in the witchcraft grocery store for three years.

Moreover, he found that most of the knowledge he had worked so hard to learn in the past three years was either wrong or had hidden harm to the producers, which made him shudder!

 After the addition of "forging process", what is obtained is the discrimination of ores, the forging of metals, many manufacturing processes, alloy formulas and so on.

There were also those that didn't have any practical uses, such as the "Wild Survival" skill. The bonus was given to him a complete book of animals and plants in Sword Bay, which identified the plants that could be eaten in detail, etc., but the actual wild skills were not involved at all.

In short, the knowledge gained by the substantial bonus of attributes to skills this time is still random, good and bad.
