An infinite journey starting from Baldur's Gate

Chapter 113 Lost
Entering the misty swamp, the four of them carefully watched the road ahead and walked straight along a path they had walked.
At that time, I ran away, but now I am deep inside.

As they walked deeper, they always heard bursts of laughter in their ears from time to time, giving people a feeling like a child getting his favorite toy.

If it were really a child, that would be fine, but the problem is, the sound was inhuman at all!

There is a bit of hoarseness in the sharpness, and the mixture of two extreme tones is very disharmonious, and it sounds like sawing wood.

"Pause!"

As he was walking, Ying Xin, who was at the end of the team, suddenly shouted to stop. He noticed an unusual movement behind him that was so subtle that it was less than the sound of rain falling to the ground.
Turn your head suddenly and look closely!
Unfortunately, he didn't see anything, at least his naked eyes didn't see anything within three meters.

As for outside this range...

"Hmph! It's really a blacksmith's embroidery. Be careful, there is something in the fog."

As a follower of Shar, Shadow Heart has received extremely rigorous training in lurking. Hidden, it is difficult for ordinary people to detect it with the naked eye.
Because of this, he is very knowledgeable about sneaking. If something is following him secretly,
It's hard not to catch him.

However, this reminder blurted out, and for a long time I didn’t hear the response from my companions behind...

Feeling that something was wrong, Ying Xin quickly looked back, suddenly confused...

Where are people? My traveling companion has disappeared! He was left alone in the same place.

"Damn it!"

Being separated from your team in the fog is an extremely dangerous and disturbing situation, and there is something following you in the fog.

At this moment, Ying Xin couldn't help but become nervous.

He was very sure that his voice was loud enough, but his companions were stunned and didn't stop. It was normal for one person not to hear it, and it was impossible for all of them to be like this!
A bold guess is that there must be something at work.

"Malon! Vale! Astelon!"

While calling his partner's name, Shadow Heart frowned and walked cautiously along the road.
This muddy path should have left traces of people who have walked before it. Even if it is not deep, there should still be some traceable footprints.

However, there was no one, as if no one had ever passed by here!

If you are an ordinary person, it will be difficult to deal with it calmly at this time.

But Ying Xin's mood is still relatively stable. Even though she has been separated, she still keeps breathing at a steady pace, trying to suppress the uneasiness and fear in her heart.
He kept muttering prayers in his mouth, hoping that the Nightsinger would receive them and protect him and escape successfully.

After walking about tens of meters, Yingxin had no choice but to stop again.
There is no road ahead, but a stinky swamp filled with rotten things. If there are many people, you can still try to walk.
But now, he is alone, and if he steps into it rashly, he may encounter something unexpected.

After thinking for a moment, Ying Xin decisively turned around and prepared to return the same way, but when he turned around, something strange happened! The trail along the way is gone!
Only an inch away, he almost stepped into the mud.

"Hell..."

At this moment, he was caught between a rock and a hard place, with nowhere to go, and something clearly wanted him to walk into this dirty swamp.
Then he missed the point and died inside...

"Huh~ Seeing is not necessarily believing, calm down."

Seeing this shadow, he still didn't panic. He took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes, trying to take a small step in the direction he came from.

Sure enough, the place he stepped on was solid ground! Not a soft, muddy swamp!
There is magic that affects his vision and transmits wrong images to his brain. In fact, this path has never changed!
It's just simply invisible.

"It's a little trick that doesn't work on the stage."

At this moment, the corner of Ying Xin's mouth curled up, suddenly! A sound of running reached my ears, arriving at very fast speed.

He opened his eyes subconsciously, but before he could see clearly what it was,
The whole person took off directly! Fall into the swamp! Pa da ~

Although the soft mud offset the impact force, the shadow heart also fell into it. Fortunately, the landing point was not very deep. I found the bottom point to press on.

Covered in mud, he struggled to stand up.

He looked around with angry eyes, trying to find the guy who attacked him.

Due to the fog, he couldn't see very far, so he had no choice but to give up. And now he was in big trouble. He couldn't find his way at all.

I don’t know how far I flew.

Knowing that getting discouraged and losing his temper would not solve the problem, Ying Xin chose a direction intuitively, suppressing her anger and walking in the swamp step by step.
Along the way, I endured all kinds of mosquito bites and the stench that hit my nose.

If an ordinary person were to have an explosive state of mind and an emotional breakdown right now,
However, Ying Xin was slightly angry and never showed a trace of panic. His ability to withstand the psychological pressure of his environment was extraordinary.

But this is not what the observer hiding in the dark wants to see...

"Don't let me know who is doing this, otherwise you will be unable to survive or die!"

While muttering in his mouth, Ying Xin struggled to pull out his leg that was stuck in the mud, and then took another difficult step. His physical strength declined very quickly.

The swamp environment is a nightmare for any adventurer!

He didn't know how far he had walked, but maybe Ying Xin's prayers worked. He was "lucky" to return to the road he came from. Without thinking much, he immediately picked up the speed!
Seeing that the distance is less than one meter,
The next second, Ying Xin's feet fell into the air and fell into a deep swamp! The mud that originally only covered the calves now covered the lower abdomen and reached the chest!

"...what the hell!"

After being stunned for a moment, Ying Xin couldn't suppress her negative emotions and cursed loudly, using foul language.
The trail is close at hand, and within two seconds of being happy, they fall directly from the sky to the bottom of the valley. This kind of polar reversal, few people can still maintain a good attitude.

He didn't dare to make a big move at this time, because his whole body was sinking at a slow speed.

The harder you struggle, the faster you sink!
"Huh~huh~ calm down..."

To comfort myself, Ying Xin first stabilizes her emotions before starting to think.
There was no point of strength next to him. He stretched his arms as much as possible and lay on the mud to increase the contact area between his body and the mud.
Then he worked hard to pull his lower limbs out of the highly suctioning mud.

"Damn it! Hold on! I'm coming!"

At the same time, a figure appeared on the path not far away. After hearing this, Yingxin, who was about to successfully save himself, raised his head and looked,
He saw Ma Long coming to him to lend a helping hand, and he immediately grabbed it.
Under the pull of the opponent, he successfully escaped from the danger and returned to solid ground.

"Why did you stop alone?!"

After landing, before he could take a breath, Ma Long asked with a serious expression,
In response, Ying Xin, who was sitting on the floor, apologized softly:
"…Sorry, I found something."

"Forget it, get up quickly. It's not safe here. Others are still waiting in front."

After receiving the apology, Ma Long sighed, and finally didn't care too much. He waved his hand to set off as soon as possible, appearing impatient.

Seeing this, Ying Xin nodded and stood up, extending his fisted right hand:
"Thank you."

"Don't be stunned, keep up."

Faced with the invitation to fist bump, Ma Long did not respond and urged anxiously.
