An ordinary fantasy adventure in the continent of Faerun

"So that's it, since that's the case!"

Scar said with sudden realization, but after a while, he frowned and raised a new question.

"But even so, we are not from Bode after all. If there are only two of us, even if we have a general direction, it will be difficult to find out the truth."

Scar's worries are not unreasonable. After all, information like this that determines Duke Gao's itinerary is certainly not something ordinary people can find out.

Nohir comforted him.

"Don't worry, we still have intelligence support in Baldur's Gate. Although the main force of the Harpers has begun to leave Baldur's Gate, there must still be remaining members to guard their base camp."

"And the Green Garden I belong to has always had a good relationship with the Harpers. When I left the camp this time, I also asked Harsin and learned about a Harper camp set up in the outer city."

Players of the camp game are still very familiar with it. It is the weapon shop called [Danselon's Flying Ax] on the Feilongguan Bridge.

"Although it is in the outer city, they can still provide us with repairs, intelligence and other support. However, if the Harpers in the outer city really do not find out the trends of the nobles in the inner city, I also know of additional intelligence channels. ”

"Have you ever heard of Nine Fingers?"

Nohill's words made Ska frown. Apparently he had never heard of the so-called Nine Fingers, but this naming style still reminded him of some unfriendly organizations.

"Could it be the local thieves guild?"

Nohir nodded in agreement.

"Yes, Nine Fingers is the underground king of Baldur's Gate. It can be said that any trouble in Baldur's Gate cannot escape the eyes of the members of Nine Fingers. Strictly speaking, the information we want to detect is not particularly sensitive. , even if you spend money to buy information from the Nine Fingers Guild, you won’t get into trouble.”

Scar: "I see. If that's the case, then I have no doubts."

Scar didn't say such nonsense that a paladin could never collude with evil. If he had kept the oath of devotion before, he might have done so, but now, his oath of revenge creed has made him not care about these at all. Down to the smallest detail.

[Looking for a strong enemy with no distractions]

[No mercy for villains]

[For victory, do whatever it takes]

[If you encounter bad consequences, do your best to make up for it]

This is the creed of the Vengeance Paladin, because the core of revenge is so simple, cruel and ruthless. Although Ska never said it clearly, according to the terminology in the game, he should have had a paladin professional level of up to level 9, but in reality Among them, this can almost be regarded as a high-level paladin.

Although his strength was weakened because he had recently transferred to the Paladin of Vengeance, the power of revenge had begun to manifest in his body in just a few days.

His ability is getting closer and closer to its previous peak, and soon, he will be able to regain his previous strength.

Even if he can complete a transcendent revenge and reaffirm the path he is on now, then he will surpass before and become stronger!

It's just... this won't be easy.

When Nohir saw this, he stopped talking and focused on exploring the surrounding forest until he was deep enough into the forest.

"It should be almost done here. Our walking speed to Baldur's Gate is too slow now. It's time to use this rare item Harsin gave me."

Nohir opened his bag. In addition to the daily necessities that he had before, there was also an extra stone, a scroll, and a whistle. These were all magic props that Harsin had given him before he left.

The stone is a sound transmission stone, which stabilizes the communication technique, which can facilitate Nohir's communication with Harsin at any time. The scroll stabilizes a six-ring spell [earth movement technique], and the whistle is a magical object.

He took out the whistle, put it in his mouth and started playing.

[Whistle of Friendship], a magical item with magical effects.

By blowing this strange object, some friendly creatures who have heard the sound of this whistle and been helped will come quickly without being threatened, and will do everything possible to help the owner of the whistle within a certain period of time. .

The previous owner of this strange object was Harsin. As a wood elf archdruid, he had helped countless creatures in the past hundred years, and now Nohir is blowing it to help Si. Ka is looking for a mount that can help him travel quickly.

"Okay, now wait a moment. Once we find a helper suitable for your journey, we will move quickly. We must strive to reach Baldur's Gate within four days. The sooner the better."

Scar nodded and did not reply. Instead, he focused all his attention on exploring the surrounding environment.

Soon, the surrounding trees began to rustle, and various creatures rushed over after hearing the magic whistle. After only five or six minutes, the surroundings were filled with various small and medium-sized animals.

Most of them were small and medium-sized creatures such as rabbits, foxes, Shiba Inu, and coyotes. When Nohill saw them coming, he held down the whistle and shook it gently.

The whistle made a strange rustling sound, dispelling the magic effect within this short distance, making these little animals shake their heads in confusion before leaving quickly.

"This place is relatively close to the camp, and many of the small animals nearby have received help from Harsin, but wait a little longer, our target is large beasts like moose that can carry people and run."

Then more than ten minutes passed, but the creatures that arrived during this period were not larger than medium-sized, and could not meet Noshier's needs.

"Well, strange, there should be many large creatures in this area, why are there none?"

Noshier was very confused. It stands to reason that the density of the forest in the area where he is now is very suitable for large creatures to travel, and it has abundant animal and plant resources. Moose, a very common creature in the forest, should appear soon.

Scar: "I don't know much about the forest, but should we go deeper? Maybe..."

Noshir: "No, this is not normal. A year ago, I saw a large number of deer in this area. When I was practicing with Harsin, I also saw him helping a large number of moose."

"But now it seems that the whole tribe has migrated, and not only moose, but also slightly larger elk, wolves, and leopards have disappeared."

"This situation is more like... some kind of super predator appeared in this area, all species competing with predators were driven away, and prey were..."

Huh~huh~

His sensitive perception immediately noticed the movement behind him, in the dim forest in the distance. A pair of huge bright yellow owl eyes were staring at him blankly.

"It seems like I really met an old friend."

Yes, Noshier recognized it. Although it was slightly different from the game, its huge size, dark brown feathers, and the most recognizable features, the two very prominent horny eyebrows and huge claws, all indicated its identity.

"An owlbear, I hope it's not the one I met when I was a child."
