An infinite journey starting from Baldur's Gate

Chapter 12 Goblin
After Gale stood up, he patted the dust and immediately bowed slightly to the two of them, stroking his chest and introducing himself.

A combination like a place name plus a person's name,

Usually only people with prominent status, status or strength can be worthy of it...

Generally speaking, using this kind of title can be regarded as showing off one's reputation in a certain place.

However, Shadow Heart got up from the ground and shook his head:
"Gail of Waterdeep? Sorry, never heard of it."

"Really? It seems that you have never been to Waterdeep City. It is a good place. If you have a chance, I suggest you go there ~ friend."

Regarding these words, Gale smiled slightly and cleverly resolved the embarrassment through words,
And by the way, he also did a wave of publicity for his hometown.

At the same time, Ma Long also stood up, looked directly at the other party, and shouted in his heart: It is indeed so! From male to female, just like Astaire,
Fortunately, he has developed resistance and will not show any strange expression on the surface.

Compared to the pale vampire, Gale's skin is white and rosy, and he is a human.

Wearing a thin, close-fitting and gorgeous robe, she has waterfall-like, silky, waist-length black hair, with jewelry hanging from her earlobes.

The appearance and facial features are slightly inferior to the former, but in terms of temperament, he is completely superior, intellectual and elegant,
Like a swan, full of pride and confidence.

Of course, while Malone was observing her, Gail was doing the same thing,
After squinting carefully for a while:
"Wait a minute, I think I've seen you before, in the mind flayer's shell ship, right?"

"...Yes, but I didn't see you."

Ma Long nodded in response. At that time, he didn't have the time to look through every pouch. His own life was obviously more important.

After receiving a positive answer, Gale's expression suddenly became extremely solemn:

"Then let me make a bold guess. Something quite unwelcome has also been put into your eyeballs, a mind flayer parasite. Am I right?"

In response, Ma Long and Ying Xin nodded again. They really didn't want to mention the bugs.
Just thinking about it makes my hair stand on end.

"Believe me, that thing must be taken out as soon as possible, otherwise..."

Just when Gale was about to talk about the dangers of bugs in a long speech, Malone directly interrupted the other party's speech.

"I know the outcome and I fully understand how big the trouble is,"

"So, we are going to find someone who can help to get medical assistance. Do you want to come together?"

"...Okay, I'll join."

This behavior was particularly impolite, but Gale was just stunned for a moment, without getting angry or showing dissatisfaction.

Instead, he smiled happily and accepted the invitation decisively.

Then Ma Long apologized with a wry smile and explained:

"Sorry, mages are famous for showing off their knowledge, please understand."

It is not necessary to listen to the other party repeat the situation that I already know, so... I can only make this decision, not because he is rude.

Fortunately, the other party has a better personality and doesn't care about this.

At least that's how it looks on the surface.

After apologizing, Gale's smile became even wider and his tone became much lighter:

"I understand. Allow me to reintroduce myself, Gale, a mage of the Evocation School."

"Ma Long, paladin, welcome."

"Shadowheart, Priest."

The three of them informed each other of their identities one after another. At this moment, Ma Long suddenly realized that something was wrong, as if someone was missing...

He quickly turned around and looked around, okay!
Astelon had disappeared long ago, no wonder she kept silent. "Paladin and priest? Wow~ Looks like I'm really lucky."

Suddenly Gale stretched out his hand to cover his mouth that was open in surprise and showed joy. Except for the Necromancer, other schools would hardly refuse the opportunity to travel with paladins and priests.

"It's a pity that the other person is not like you...wait a minute, where is the Astelan?"

Suddenly, Ying Xin came to his senses and turned around to see no one.

"Malon, where did she go?"

Facing this question, Ma Long remained silent. He understood what Astelon was thinking.
After all, he and Shadow Heart were one of the few nemesis of vampires besides the sun. If their lives were at stake, they would definitely choose to run away.

Despite having bugs in the brain, there is a difference between dying early and dying late...

"There are more than two of you?"

"what!"

The moment Gale finished asking, a woman's exclamation came from the nearby forest, accompanied by many running movements and the rustling of bushes being moved.

Not long after, the pale vampire Asteron appeared in the eyes of several people looking quite embarrassed.
The originally delicate silk clothes had several tears and were stained with bright red blood.

When she saw everyone's figures, Astelon hurriedly ran to her teammates and "rejoined the team". As she ran, she looked horrified and shouted loudly:
"Goblins! There are goblins around here!"

"What!?"

Upon hearing this, Ying Xin couldn't help but turn pale with fright. He quickly took out the weapon from his waist and held it tightly.

Goblins, a group of dwarf and ugly humanoid creatures, are vicious and cruel in nature. They usually move in groups, plundering and destroying everything they see!
The number was ridiculous, and they rushed up in a swarm.
If an adventure group with poor combat power encounters them, they will basically be wiped out.

After a while, a dozen short goblins with different skin colors and fierce faces, wearing tattered armor and holding rusty weapons, appeared.
They rushed out of the bushes one after another and arrived at the trail where Ma Long and others were.
At this time, Astelon also stood next to his teammates again, breathing heavily.

This situation made Ying Xin unable to hold back the burning anger in her heart and asked loudly:

"Damn it! What on earth do you want to do!?"

Not only did he suddenly disappear, but he also attracted a group of enemies back!

Knowing that she was in the wrong, Asteron glanced at him and said nothing. Normally, she would have fought back with all her strength~
"Shut up! Now is not the time to argue."

Ma Long scolded with a solemn expression, and faced the oncoming enemy with his giant sword on the ground.

Keep an eye on the dozen goblins gathered not far away.

This is not a small amount, even if it is divided equally, each person has to solve four! Although goblins are not as tall as a human waist,

But after all, there are so many of them...

At the same time, the goblins were also observing everyone. They were not stupid.
We will assess the situation and compare the gap between ourselves and the enemy. If we encounter something that is too difficult, we may not necessarily go to the enemy's side. Instead, we will go back and shake people to call for more reinforcements.

"Do you want to run? Where there are goblins, there usually aren't the only ones nearby."

Gale took a step forward and asked softly.

At this point, Shadow Heart and Astelon focused their attention on Ma Long, and it was up to him to decide whether to fight or avoid the edge.

Once a fight breaks out, if more goblins come, it will be all over.
Making a choice is actually not easy...
