An infinite journey starting from Baldur's Gate

Chapter 149 One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers

On the other side, Ma Long led the three women out of the tent, but within a few steps, they were blocked by a short, fat, dark red mushroom with a head that looked like a giant Ganoderma lucidum.

This mushroom man looks very different from the others in the cave here.

The main difference is in body shape. Others are basically tall and thin. Furthermore, the light it emits also gives people a feeling of weakness.

"Go away! Disgusting guy."

Asteron exhorted angrily.

Gale had a different attitude towards this, curious and a little wary:

"Do you... have something to say?"

After the words fell, the fat mushroom looked at the group of four people carefully with its small emerald eyes, then opened its plump arms,

It emits a strange tone and communicates at the spiritual level through the spores.

Weir looked surprised and said:
"You want to come with us? Why?"

Knowing the purpose of their trip, Pang Mushroom asked to go with them.

Then the other party showed a memory, and several people saw in their minds a damp fjord full of rotting and broken corpses of myconids.

"My name is Glatt. All my people were destroyed by the gray dwarf boils. I am a myconid king without a circle, and I am not welcome here."

If there is a local who is familiar with the terrain to lead the way, it can save a lot of trouble.

"You plan to clean up those gray dwarf abscesses? In that case, I want to join your team and go together."

"Fleshwalker, tell me, where is your home? How would you feel if your home was destroyed by gray dwarves?"

"I know where those boils are."

Glatt immediately turned around and walked quickly toward the cave exit step by step with his bloated body. His movements were quite funny~

After all, they are not underground aborigines;

"Ma Long, what do you think?"

Myconids can thrive in the dark area, and their abilities are certainly not bad.

It was obvious that she was not at the same level of thinking as the mage.

After thinking again and again, Ma Long nodded and agreed:
"Okay, Grat, then you will lead us to find the gray dwarves."

Gale shook his head and sighed softly:
"To be honest, it's hard for me to sympathize with creatures like myconids, but... I feel like it might come in handy."

Hearing this, Astelon said with disgust on his face.

"Flesh Walkers, you came from the darkness, where are you going?"

Because they are in spiritual communication with each other,
Malone could clearly feel the resentment and sadness in Fat Mushroom Glat's heart.
It was once a mushroom king, but its homeland no longer existed. Like a king who lost his country, he was forced to live in a foreign land and suffered humiliation.

Weier turned to ask the captain for his opinion. It was up to him to decide whether the myconid should join or not.

Malone shrugged and told the truth:
"At this stage, I will help the Myconid King deal with the gray dwarves. As for the future, you won't be interested."

"Really? What use can such a bloated mushroom do?"

Anyway, Astaire laughed loudly.

"time to go."

With a word of urging, Ma Long quickly caught up with Fat Mushroom who had already walked a long way.

However, when they were leaving, several local myconids stopped them from leaving. They did not allow Glatt to go out from here.

As for the reason, no reasonable explanation was given. In the end, Malone came forward to coordinate, claiming that it had joined his team and that this trip was to jointly destroy the gray dwarves who were causing harm to one party.
Only then did he barely get permission to pass.

After leaving the myconid habitat, Gale immediately used the dark vision spell he learned from the scroll on himself, and Malone, who was wearing the magic ring,
And Weier, who was rewarded by the Devil Sect Master,
The dark environment is no longer an obstacle or trouble for them.

The four of them followed Grat all the way. On the way, they saw many corpses of myconids and gray dwarves. A tragic and bloody conflict broke out between the two races!
The starting point of everything was because the friendly myconids took in the underground dwarf, Tula.

Although myconids are not easy to deal with, slave owners will not abandon their "property" easily.

Seeing the corpses, Glat stopped and leaned over to touch them with his hands. A large number of spores were released from his body and attached to the dead bodies.
A large number of fungi and mushrooms are growing everywhere at a speed visible to the naked eye...

Just the next moment! The corpse is alive! He climbed up very slowly and stood blankly in front of the defeated Myconid King!

"... Damn it! What the hell is going on?!"

Seeing this situation, Astelon retreated subconsciously and exclaimed in horror.

Gale opened his eyes wide, surprised and curious:

"It's activated spores, similar to necromancy. I remember this is the myconid's unique ability. Seeing it with my own eyes is indeed more shocking than reading the text..."

"It seems that the druids of some associations also have this ability."

When the mage finished introducing the information he knew in his mind, Fat Mushroom Glat conveyed his thoughts to Ma Long and others, while pointing to somewhere in the distance.

"Fleshwalker, the gray dwarf abscess is by the lake not far ahead,"

"I will create more slaves here and help you later."

"...Wait a minute, won't you come with us?"

Suddenly, Ma Long frowned and noticed a clue, something felt wrong.

After all, when they came out, the attitude of those myconids already showed the seriousness of the problem.
As the saying goes, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. If there are two myconid kings in an area, nothing good will happen. They may even start a fight!

He was willing to intervene because of the other party's willingness to help and the loss of his home.

"Go quickly, Flesh Walker."

Glatt didn't explain too much, and then continued to "resurrect" more corpses. One by one, the dead lost their lives. After they released spores to parasitize,
Stand up again and become a loyal slave completely under its control.

"I suddenly felt that I shouldn't take it out."

This scene made Weir feel bad, and her expression and words were quite solemn.

Looking deeply at the fat mushroom, Ma Long couldn't help but sigh:
"I feel the same, but it's too late to regret now. Let's deal with the gray dwarves first."

He had a hunch that he might have done something wrong...

After that, he followed the direction guided by Glat. After walking for about a few hundred meters, a dilapidated village built on the edge of the lake came into view.

But it is such a long-abandoned place, but there are torches and bonfires in it.

"Be careful, that dwarf claims that gray dwarves have the ability to become invisible."

Gale reminded him as he observed the village environment seriously.

Although they can see through the darkness now, it does not mean they can see through invisible things. Therefore, the gray dwarves have an absolute advantage.

Take the initiative and attack unexpectedly!

"Gayle, can you see through the invisibility spell?"

At this time, Weier still had a glimmer of hope and asked, but unfortunately the "former archmage" shook his head helplessly and said that he was helpless:
"Sorry, I used to know it, but now...I have forgotten it and can't remember the spell at all. We can only be more careful and vigilant."
