An infinite journey starting from Baldur's Gate

Chapter 156 "Furu Mating Ceremony"

Because of the theft, Ma Long felt guilty and prepared to let the other party study the shark-lizard beast at will.
After all, this thing is useless to everyone.

"up to you……"

Before the words were fully spoken, Asteron rushed over and gave the paladin a strong push.
Show a charming smile and discuss business formally:

"Is this corpse valuable to you? So let's barter. How many magic items do you think this thing is worth?"

Seeing this scene, Bulger was also stunned. He first looked at Malone and Gale who were silent next to him.

Helplessly, he buried his head in thought and gave a price:

"...Two at most. After all, the Shark-Lizard Beast is dead, so there isn't much I can research."

When Astelon heard this, he crossed his arms and sneered:
"Ha~ don't talk like you can grasp it if I give it to you, just be higher."

"…Okay, how about three pieces?"

"Ms. Gale, this is the key to the box. I believe you will not have dirty hands. You can choose whatever you want. After you take it, just give it to my companion Omilon,"

Shadowheart then gave Astelon a thumbs up. In this way, everyone would not have to repay the owner for the stolen things.

"You are not allowed to steal anything again without my permission."

……

Then Ma Long looked at Ying Xin and Asdelon and solemnly declared:

After some bargaining and story preparation, Bulger couldn't bear that such a rare and rare creature could enter the human stomach without even studying it.

At this point, the theft was over. Everyone looked at the scholar from the Guangyao Society who was walking around the body of the Shark-Lizard Beast and kept talking to himself.
He breathed a sigh of relief.

Astelon, on the other hand, shrugged and smiled nonchalantly:
"Okay~ You have the final say."

"Ah."

Because they have reached a deal with each other, bartering with the body of the Shark Lizard Beast is two different things from stealing. Even though he is very angry,
But Bulger didn't want to worry about it too much. He wanted to put his mind into research.

But what is puzzling is that after Bulger found out, he only verbally criticized him.
Nothing stolen was recovered.

After much hesitation, he nodded and agreed to the deal.

"And when you see him, don't get too excited. He is not a bad person."

It has to be said that Astelon's mouth is still as usual, good and bad.
Most of the time it's unlikable, but when it comes to critical moments it can work wonders.

"Four pieces. This beast almost digested my teammate before. If you don't accept it, we will definitely retaliate and roast it on the fire! I can give you the bare skeleton for free, do you want it?"

Of course, only the two of them were happy, and the others felt uncomfortable...

Ying Xin was trained to lower her head and silently agreed.

This scholar is indeed easier to talk to, but not everyone is like that!
Fighting with swords is the normal behavior between the owner and the thief.

"Let's go and go back to do business."

Bulger walked up to the mage and took out an iron key from his waistband:

In particular, Malone felt the most uncomfortable. He immediately strode forward and took the key from Gail's hand. He personally admitted the theft, apologized, and returned the object.

Facing this woman, Ma Long really had nothing to do. She made mistakes, but he couldn't punish her severely. At most, he would reprimand her twice.
It’s rare for someone to consider and contribute to the team.

After saying that, everyone "went home" and entered the cave to find the myconid Wang Sibo and informed him of the death of Fat Mushroom Glat and Gray Dwarf.

This was a blessing upon happiness, but the other party didn't show much joy.

Maybe it's because the mushroom man is not good at expressing himself.

However, it has a spirit of contract and will reward you as promised, opening up the mysterious area blocked by vines.
Give them all that is in it generously. Some people in the team thought that there were a lot of good things hidden inside, but when the group actually walked in... they realized how high their expectations were and how disappointing they were.

There was a drow corpse lying there! and various things belonging to the deceased,

Then it disappeared, that’s all.

"How dare that dead mushroom lie to us? Karak, let's chop it down for firewood."

Seeing this, Astelon laughed angrily on the spot and encouraged his teammates to look for trouble together.

Unfortunately, her words didn't work.
Hearing this, Karak looked at Ma Long silently, without saying a word, and tightly grasped the ax on his shoulder. Although he was also very angry, he was actually fooled by the mushroom!

But he would not take action without the captain's signal.

"Don't worry."

Raising his hand to comfort him, Ma Long walked to the body and searched for the things he carried.
A small bag of coins, a book, and an iron block exuding cold air, and then he rummaged through the backpack in the corner next to the deceased.
Get some dry food, two bottles of healing potions, and a black hood with a mask.

After taking all the harvest, Malone smiled and handed the hood to Astelon:
"Well, there are some good things too. Let's try them on."

The other party received the letter and doubt, changed his face in an instant and put his hat on his head, and the next second! The whole person disappeared out of thin air in front of everyone's sight!

"Hell!" x3
Karak, Gale, and Weir exclaimed in unison.

As a trickster priest, Shadow Heart judged at a glance that he was invisible. He vaguely saw an indistinct outline still standing in place.

As for Harsin, she was once an archdruid and had never seen anything like this before.

At this time, Astelon released his invisibility, revealed his body and admitted that he had made a mistake in judgment:
"...Okay, it's indeed a good thing. I was wrong to blame the mushroom. It's just that the quantity is smaller. It's stingy, only one."

"That's more than that~ The iron rod I found before should be able to be combined with it."

Afterwards, Ma Long shook his head and smiled and showed the cold iron piece again.

It is not difficult to tell from the material of the object and the same extremely cold characteristics that it is part of the split staff!

If you combine the two, you can vaguely see the prototype of the staff!

Gale took a closer look and guessed:
"If I'm not wrong, there's only one component missing and it's complete."

"If we get everything together, can you put things back together?"

Veer asked curiously.

Although she only had one eye left, it didn't mean she was blind. The biting cold air emitted by the two things was very strong! If it could be restored to its original state,

There is a high probability that it is a rare treasure!
"...I can't guarantee it, but it's worth a try. "Furu Mating Ceremony"?"

As he spoke, Gale was stuffed with a book in his hand and looked down at the description on the cover.

Subconsciously read out the words written above.

"Huh? What is Furu?"

Karak scratched his cheek, his head filled with questions.

On the other hand, Astelon urged with great interest:
"Mating ceremony? Hmm~ This title is interesting, please open it and read it."

She was not interested in "Fulu", what was important were the following words~ Pornographic literature was the most popular and illicit reading material for people in the world to pass their time.

Opening the book, Gale read the contents carefully and his expression became more and more uncomfortable...

Sudden! She controlled the energy of the magic net in her hands and brushed the paper of the book, and the entire book suddenly underwent unexpected and significant changes!
