Chapter 630 Deep Water City
The next day, everyone continued to set out and headed towards Waterdeep. Fortunately, they did not encounter bandits who blocked their way or monsters like the stupid Kobolds who dared to attack.
Soon, without spending too much time, they arrived at Waterdeep, which is known as the crown of the North.
As one of the most prosperous cities in the North, Waterdeep is much larger than Neverwinter. Countless brave warriors who defended the world have appeared here, and their legends have been sung by bards throughout the continent. But to be honest, this experience is not worth envying, because it means that this city is just like Tokyo in another world—as soon as the little monster appears, you want to fight it to find a sense of existence.
When they arrived at the gate of Waterdeep, everyone was stopped as expected.
"Stop, who are you?"
The guards held a spear and stared at the four people in front of them in confusion, or rather, their main attention was on Duanmu Huai. After all, the presence of this big guy is too strong, and just seeing him makes people feel cold in their hearts.
"We are from Neverwinter."
"Neverwinter?"
Hearing Amelia's answer, the guards suddenly became nervous and subconsciously took a few steps back. Seeing this scene, Amelia sighed inwardly. The news of the outbreak of plague in Neverwinter had spread throughout the entire North. Although the plague has dissipated now, it is certain that similar situations will probably occur in the next period of time...
"Yes, thanks to Master Kelben, the plague that ravaged Neverwinter has dissipated. We came here this time to thank Master Kelben on behalf of Lord Nasher."
Speaking of this, Amelia also raised her voice. She knew that there were many people entering and leaving the city gate at this moment, so she also wanted to spread the news that the plague in Neverwinter had dissipated as soon as possible. Sure enough, hearing Amelia's words, many people looked over here and looked at them curiously.
"Ah, I see..."
"Here is Lord Nasher's letter."
As she spoke, Emilia took out a letter from her bosom and handed it over. The guard took the letter and examined it carefully, then his face became serious and he saluted Emilia.
"Welcome everyone, may I ask, who are they..."
"They are the heroes who saved Neverwinter."
Amelia did not hide anything and spoke openly about the matter. Cassim and Rosha were obviously not suitable for such an occasion, and they lowered their heads with blushing faces. Duanmu Huai stood there motionless, he didn't care about these things, and Ogis sat on Duanmu Huai's shoulders as usual, swinging her legs and staring curiously at the Deepwater City in front of her.
"Ah, that's how it is."
Hearing this, the guards understood immediately and retracted their suspicious eyes towards Duanmu Huai. After all, this is Waterdeep City, and there are many similar heroes. As residents of Waterdeep City, they have long known that those who are called heroes are basically not normal people.
For example, that person, and that person... Well, the specific names must not be mentioned, everyone just knows it.
"Welcome to Waterdeep City, I hope you can have a good time."
If they were ordinary adventurers, the guards would definitely not let them in so easily, but Emilia was a paladin of Tyr, and she also had a letter from the Lord of Neverwinter. It was obvious that their identities were endorsed by Neverwinter, so the guards did not care too much and hurriedly made way, and Duanmu Huai and his party entered Waterdeep City.
This city is more prosperous than Neverwinter, but Duanmu Huai doesn't think it's special. However, he is still very excited because he knows that there are many magic shops in Waterdeep, where he can buy some magic props for himself. As for learning magic, Duanmu Huai doesn't care much. Although the magic of Faerun Continent is superb in terms of auxiliary, it is too troublesome to learn.
"Then, let's split up next."
After entering Waterdeep, Duanmu Huai couldn't wait to put forward his own opinions.
"Split up?"
"Yes, what are your plans?"
"Well... ..."
Hearing Duanmu Huai's question, Kasim and Luo Xia looked at each other, and then looked at Amelia.
"Where is Miss Amelia?"
"Of course I have to go to the Black Rod Tower to meet Master Khelbourne. After all, this is my duty."
As an official, Amelia must have the necessary etiquette.
"Luo Xia and I plan to go around Waterdeep."
"Then let's disband here and meet here at lunch time. Oh, by the way."
At this point, Duanmu Huai reached out and put Ojis down from his shoulder.
"Please take care of her."
"Hey? Us...? So Mr. Duanmu, are you planning to..."
"I have something to deal with. See you later."
After saying this, Duanmu Huai smiled and waved to Ojis, who tilted her head in confusion but didn't say much. And everyone just watched Duanmu Huai turn his head, and his tall body disappeared in the busy streets.
"...Where is Mr. Duanmu going?"
"I don't know..."
Everyone looked at each other, confused.
At this moment, Duanmuhuai left the crowd in large strides and ran towards another street as fast as he could. If the helmet hadn't covered Duanmuhuai's face, then you could see the fullness on his face at this moment. A weird and obscene smile.
"Hehehehe, Healing House, here I come! Hehehehe, you can't stop me this time!!"
Duanmu Huai stared at the Healing House on Gem Street, his eyes shining now.
The so-called Healing House is actually a large... entertainment venue in Waterdeep City.
Well, that's right, entertainment venues, the kind that everyone knows.
This place is very popular among players, and the reason is very simple. According to the results of the investigation after the players entering the mission, this place can be said to be a heaven on earth or a paradise on earth. It is filled with handsome men and beauties of all races, whether they are elves, half-elves, or even halflings. It is even rumored that snow elves and drow are among them.
Not only that, there are also many people there who are believers of the goddess of love, Shuna, and their skills are superb. Once they experience it, they will forget to come back and never miss it. In addition, according to player surveys, the basement here also has different views, and guests can dress up in different ways to experience the fun.
That's right, in this world of middle-world civilization, there is already a way to play COSPLAY!
Players will naturally not let go of a place like this. Who doesn’t want to see elves pole dancing?
However, it is a pity that since it is a game, it is definitely impossible for you to experience it, so players are not allowed to enter this building except to accept the mission of the Healing House. When entering for a mission, the whole place is empty. The only thing the player can see is the traces of fierce battles in the room, and then he makes up his mind about those traces...
The so-called best is what you can't get, and because of this, many players are obsessed with going inside to find out. After all, they have met many of the staff there, and they are really good-looking... and have a really great temperament...
Hey hey hey, I can't enter the game, so I don't believe that in the real world, when I open the door, you can stick the sentence "according to local laws and regulations, the content here cannot be displayed" on my face?
Facts have proved that Duanmu Huai's idea was correct. When he opened the door of the House of Healing, there was indeed no warning like in the game and then "there is no way to explore the place ahead in the future"...
But nervous guards are just as troublesome.
"You, what do you want to do?"
Looking at the extremely tall Duanmu Huai, the guard swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He didn't know whether it was because the operator here was scary enough or because he took enough money, but it prevented him from collapsing to the ground in front of Duanmu Huai.
"Of course I'm here to enjoy it."
As Duanmuhuai spoke, he reached out and threw a few gold coins on the table.
"It should be fine now."
"Ah, yes, of course, you are welcome, please go this way."
After learning that Duanmu Huai was not here to cause trouble, the guard immediately became much more enthusiastic. He accepted the gold coins, then respectfully opened the door inside, and then Duanmu Huai walked in with satisfaction.
The entire corridor was dark and covered with rags everywhere. According to players who had been here before, these rags were mainly used to block the guests' sight and prevent them from contacting and seeing each other - well, it's understandable. It would be quite embarrassing if you meet a colleague when you come to the foot-washing city to order a technician.
"Hello, this... strong guest."
Standing on the other side of the corridor was a pretty half-elf woman. The moment she saw Duanmuhuai, she was somewhat distracted, but she soon showed a professional smile.
"Welcome to the Healing House, may I be of service to you?"
"Well, give me a set meal."
Duanmuhuai looked around and then looked away. In the game, he came here several times while doing tasks - because Duanmu Huai plays a charming female account in the game, so it is more convenient to enter such a place. It's a pity that even if he comes in, he won't see anything good, but he does know a lot about the consumption here.
The cost of the Healing House is very high. You need four gold coins to get started, and then each staff member who serves you will have to pay an additional twenty-five gold coins. This is just the entrance fee. What special program are you going to have? , then you still have to pay extra. Basically, hundreds or thousands of gold coins are simply wasted at once.
But Duanmu Huai doesn't care. I'm rich and willful. Isn't this unpleasant waste a waste?
"What kind of set meal do you want? Our store has..."
"Give me the most expensive one."
"Okay, guest, please follow me."
What Duanmu Huai wants is the most expensive one-stop package in heaven and earth. The process is to first take a bath, massage, and then drink. Then the guest chooses the room and the style of the cosplay, and then... hehe hehe... hehe... and have a great time.
It has to be said that this shop is indeed professional. When Duanmu Huai took off his power armor and revealed his true face, although the women were a little surprised, they did not faint to the ground. It can be seen that they are quite experienced in this aspect.
While bathing, Duanmu Huai also enjoyed a feast of beautiful female bodies. Not only did the hot tieflings and the blonde, blue-eyed, white-skinned beauties with celestial blood carefully wipe every inch of his skin, but there were even elves the size of a fingernail to clean his ears. It can be said that he was completely surrounded by beautiful women - well, this experience is really rare.
After bathing, Duanmu Huai lay on the bed and enjoyed the full-body massage and oiling performed by two Shu Na priests for him... It must be said that the priests of the god of love are really good at this. The soft and boneless little hands on Duanmu Huai's body made Duanmu Huai feel comfortable.
Of course, this is just foreplay, so Duanmu Huai has been enduring it, after all... the main character has not appeared yet.
"Hello, guest."
Just as Duanmu Huai was enjoying the massage, the half-elf woman who entertained him also came over with a smile.
"It's about to enter the next stage. Do you have any requirements in terms of candidates?"
"Well..."
Hearing this, Duanmu Huai thought for a while.
"A noble, preferably a princess or something like that. Oh, by the way, she has to be able to withstand my torture. I don't want anyone to die."
Playing is playing, and making trouble is making trouble. Playing to death is another matter.
"Okay, no problem."
"Oh, it's best to wear a lace dress."
"No problem."
Soon, the massage was over, Duanmu Huai stood up, and he felt comfortable all over. Then he picked up the oversized bathrobe beside him and wrapped it around himself, and then strode towards the next room.
Okay, let me see what kind of surprise the Healing House has prepared for me.
With fantasy, Duanmu Huai pushed open the door and walked into the room.
In front of him was a room similar to the bedroom of a noble lady, and the bed was also quite large, four or five meters wide, and the decoration of the whole room was also very atmospheric.
So, where is the princess in a lace dress?
"Dong... Dong..."
Just then, footsteps came from behind Duanmu Huai, and then a voice sounded behind Duanmu Huai.
"Hello, distinguished guest......"
"Oh, you're finally here."
Duanmu Huai smiled and turned his head to look at the figure in front of him. Then he froze in place.
In front of Duanmu Huai was a giant wearing a lace dress, about the same height as himself, with a green face and fangs!
"I am Alice, the princess of the Fire Giant Clan. Please let me serve you, distinguished guest."
"…………………………"
At this moment, Duanmu Huai was completely speechless.
