An infinite journey starting from Baldur's Gate

Chapter 112 Entering the Swamp Again
As the magic net contained in the weapon continued to pour into Gale's body,
She couldn't help showing a comfortable expression, but it didn't take long for the sword, blessed by the God of Justice, to lose its original luster and specialness.
Completely reduced to a mortal thing.

When the first magic item is absorbed, then the second, third...

Subsequently, Gale absorbed energy faster and faster! In less than two minutes, the entire family was wiped out! It's a pity that the gluttonous appetite for destroying the orb has not yet been satisfied.
Still kept asking for it from the host.

"Damn it! Damn it!"

In response, Gale pounded the ground angrily, and she "eated up and wiped clean" all the results we had obtained in the past few days.
But I still can't satisfy the thing in my body, and I really don't have the face to face my friends.

"Stop! What are you doing?!"

Seeing this, Weier frowned and shouted to stop this behavior. She was in trouble, but her companions were helpless.
Everyone feels the same, they are all miserable.

At this time Harsin asked with a serious face:

"Gale, what exactly is the Orb of Destruction? I sense that you have an unknown power full of corruption and endless desire within you."

"I have no idea……"

Facing the archdruid's question, Gale slowly shook his head and expressed his ignorance.
But then she told how it all started.

The reason why she was parasitized by the Destruction Sphere was because she found an ancient book. Because it was so old, most of the fonts were lost.

After opening it, a ball of black energy flew out and rushed directly into the body.
And continue to draw on her strength.

The situation was fine before, and the demand was not as huge as it is now. At most, one or two magic items could be "supplied" and things would be stable for a while, but now...

"How old exactly?"

"...Not sure, maybe it was before the floating city of Netheril fell."

Hearing this, Harsin was truly speechless. The mage's courage to explore the unknown is commendable. The development of many fields in today's world,

It is inseparable from the contributions of such people, but the probability of getting into trouble is also very high...

Immediately afterwards, Ma Long picked up the giant sword that had turned into a mortal object and solemnly announced:

"No matter what, Gaelic needs must be met, otherwise it is an extremely dangerous situation for all of us,"

"Shadow Heart, Vale, Astelon, you three follow me and come back in search of magic items."

"Karak, Harsin, you guys stay here and are responsible for looking after Gale. There are jackals around here, so you must pay special attention."

At present, no one can wait for the heavy rain to stop. Every minute and second of delay is an unimaginable torture for Gale.

What's more, if the orb is unstable and destroyed, there is no need to even think about setting off.

Not to mention going to the Tower of Moonrise, just descending into the Dark Area is extremely difficult.

"Wait a minute! I don't know how to take care of people. I want to go out with you."

Karak couldn't accept this arrangement and immediately expressed his objection loudly.

As one of the main combatants in the team, his strongest point is fighting. If he stayed, wouldn't he be left to his own devices?

"Your task is to guard the tent and take care of people. That is Harsin's business."

With a slight sigh, Ma Long explained patiently.

He must leave his two strongest teammates to take care of the weak Gale. Once the jackals take advantage of the situation, the consequences will be disastrous.

"But……"

"I am the captain, Karak. I hope you respect my arrangement. Everyone, follow me."

Suddenly, Ma Long changed his usual good-tempered attitude and gave orders very forcefully.
After saying that, he took the sword and walked out regardless of the rain.

"He is right, Karak. The number of Jackals will definitely not be small. You and Harsin are the most suitable candidates."

Border Blade comforted him and stepped straight into the rain after the captain.

Shadow Heart was still the same, not very talkative. He nodded to the two people who stayed behind, indicating that the precious mage was handed over to you, and then turned around and left. Astelon, on the other hand, was barefoot and hurriedly put on her boots:

"Hey! Wait for me! I'm putting on my shoes!"

Next, Ma Long and the others braved the bad weather and went out to find magic items without hesitation, but such items are usually hard to come by.

Enduring the heavy rain hitting her body, Weier raised her voice as loud as possible:
"Ma Long! Have you figured out where to look for it?!"

"Yes! Do you remember that it was the place we arrived after jumping off the cliff?"

"What?! You're going there!"

Upon hearing this, Astelon immediately realized where Malone was pointing, a swamp shrouded in fog and filled with a rotting stench!

You know, after they successfully escaped, they heard bursts of weird laughter.

It was obvious that there were some tough guys living inside.

"Wealth can be found in danger! Every adventurer understands this truth! Although we are not seeking wealth, there must be good things in that area!"

"Besides, I almost got lost in the swamp before. It's time to settle the score!"

Opening his voice, Malone explained loudly.

At that time, the group was just passing by someone else's house, but they were treated like that. If they didn't reason with the owner properly,
He couldn't swallow this bad breath! Before going to the Dark Territory, Liang Zi must be killed.

"I hope you're right!"

The paladin's idea was actually not very good, but Shadowheart didn't object.

The swamp is very dangerous, and you may not be able to get out if you go deep into it, but now that there is no better way, you can't abandon Gale, right?

"Me too, but there has always been danger and profit at the same time."

……

Tens of minutes later, the heavy rain became much lighter, and the four-person team that went out barely managed to reach the edge of the swamp.

Waves of familiar stench rushed into the nasal cavity, and tears could not help but flow out.

At this time, the entire swamp was not shrouded in fog, and they could clearly see parts of the swamp where the environment was extremely harsh.

What you see is mud, dark and bare tree trunks, and various weeds.

It looked calm for the moment, but the moment Ma Long stepped into a certain area, the weird laughter that sent chills down the spine reached his ears again,

Thick fog gradually emerged from the ground. It was so thick that it could be seen from a distance of less than three meters!
"The guy inside knew we were coming, and he welcomed us very quickly. He was very hospitable."

Astelon held the short bow tightly, obviously feeling a little timid in her heart, but her mouth was still playful.

Weir, on the other hand, seemed extremely cautious:

"I personally feel that there are other "surprises" waiting for us in this fog. We were lucky enough not to encounter them last time, but this time..."

"May the Night Goddess bless us."

As a priest, Ying Xin began to pray on the spot. Faced with the possibility of a road of no return, he did not want himself and his friends to sleep in the filthy quagmire forever.
No one can fall down in a place like this.

"Follow each other closely, report any abnormalities immediately, and never stop on your own. Remember this."

After saying the most important and critical point, Ma Long took a deep breath.

Taking heavy steps into the mist, the others quickly followed.

　Brothers, it will be on the shelves tomorrow. First of all, thank you for reading this. This book does have many shortcomings, which has caused dissatisfaction among many readers. The author is very grateful for everyone's tolerance and support.
