An infinite journey starting from Baldur's Gate

Not everyone noticed that figure, but some of them were enough!

Although not sure exactly what it is,
But everyone is very unanimous in their opinions, go and have a look.

It happened that Ma Long saw the direction the other party was going. After pursuing it all the way, he finally came to the door of a dilapidated building called the Masons' Guild. Because it had not been maintained for a hundred years,

The house was already riddled with holes and was on the verge of collapse.

Walking to the entrance, Malone heard a small and rapid breathing sound. It was obvious that there was a person hiding inside, not an evil spirit in the shadow.

And, he already had the answer in his mind.

Then he made a gesture and told everyone to wait for him to go in alone.

No one has any opinion on this. In the cursed land, anyone acting alone may be in danger, with the exception of the paladin.

No undead creature can withstand a slash filled with holy power.

squeak~

Gently pushing open the old and broken door, Ma Long just stepped in.
Before he could see the situation clearly...

Bang!
"Oh! What the hell..."

Ma Long was hit on the forehead by something unknown, his head fell back and he took two steps back. He took a breath of cold air and squatted by the door with his head in his hands, his hand covering the painful spot, his expression twisted and wailing.

He was completely unwary and naturally couldn't react at all, and then...

When the sound spread, all the friends were shocked and ran over to check.

At this time, a little head was timidly poking out from the door frame.

Discovering this situation, Astelon shouted:

"Get out! I saw you!"

At the same time, Gale squatted beside the captain and asked with gentle concern:

"are you OK?"

"Hey~ small problem."

Ma Long took his hand away, and a trace of bright red slowly flowed down his forehead.

Although he said he was fine, in fact, his forehead was blown open...

The moment he saw the blood, Ying Xin rushed into the house with a cold face. After a burst of children screaming, he carried the culprit and the murder weapon.
He walked out with a calm face.

What hit Ma Long was a unique construction tool specially used for building walls. It was made of iron and had a sharp edge. Throwing it with great force could hurt someone.

As for the attacker, most people present recognized him as the child whom Malone had rescued from the hands of the "chief" Druid Kahal who had fallen into the shadows.
Tiefling girl, Arabelle.

Ying Xin was grabbing the back of the neck, unable to move, showing panic and bewilderment. Of course, more importantly, he felt guilty and ashamed...

Because she had just made a big mistake, Arabelle had already recognized the identity of the group and knew who was hit by the object she threw.

It was the paladin who helped her escape from the clutches of the devil before!

"Arabelle? Why are you here?"

Gale was quite surprised to see this kid again.

"This name sounds familiar... Is he the kid who was caught stealing in the Emerald Woodland?"

Hearing this, Astelon touched her chin and recalled that there were not many things that she could remember, but this time the impression was really deep.

The main reason is that he was caught~
During the paladin trial, she had laughed at Arabelle in her heart.

If you don't have enough skills, don't take that kind of job.

"What to do with her?"

Carrying the murderer, Shadow Heart came to the captain and asked about the solution.

If his idea is implemented, the death penalty can be avoided, but the life penalty cannot be escaped. Even a child will inevitably receive a fat beating, which will always hurt someone. Malone looked at Arabelle, waved his hand helplessly and sighed:
"...Put it down and get me a bandage."

In fact, this is not entirely the fault of the other party. At first, they did not know the identity of the visitor. How could they be careless in a cursed place?
Furthermore, Malone shouldn't let down his guard.

The next second, Shadow Heart let go of her big hand. After landing, Arabelle covered her neck with finger marks and gave the priest a frightened look...

Then, he turned to Malone apologetically.

"I'm sorry...Your Majesty Paladin."

"You're really good at throwing, Arabelle. Do you often throw sandbags?"

Taking the bandage handed over by Ying Xin, Ma Long wrapped it around his head twice, then walked to the other party and squatted down in front of him as if nothing had happened, smiling kindly and gently.

Seeing this scene, Arabelle hesitated:

"Aren't you...are you angry?"

"You were also trying to protect yourself. Even though it hurts a lot, I won't hold you responsible for this. It's only human nature to fight back."

While comforting him softly, Ma Long observed the other party's recent changes, but the more he watched, the more frightened he became.
Arabelle was particularly embarrassed and scarred,
There is no longer the unique agility of a child in her eyes. Thinking about it, she has experienced many things recently and has been forced to grow and mature...

At this time, Weier interrupted and mentioned the key point:

"Arabelle, why can you stay safe and sound in the shadows?"

A child stayed alone in the most cursed town of Leithven. It was puzzling that he was not swallowed by shadows or torn apart by evil spirits.
If it weren't for the magical protection of goblins, none of them could have withstood it, let alone the children.

"I... don't know the specifics. Maybe it was the statue that changed me. Look at this."

As she spoke, Arabelle raised her hand, and the energy of the magic network emerged from her palm.

"Blessings from the Oak Father, son, you too are a blessing in disguise."

Feeling an extremely familiar power, Harsin shook her head and sighed. As the former Archdruid, she naturally knew what Kaha had done.
I am also glad that things did not develop in a bad direction.

However, the mage saw another important aspect that the druid had not noticed. Gale could not help but frown slightly, staring closely at the glowing and surging energy...

Arabelle's "technique" for controlling the magic network is very crude.

For example, when a mage releases any magic spell, he uses a magic net that has been knitted or kneaded into a specific shape.

If this process had not gone through, the power of the spell might be very impressive.
It will also be extremely dangerous!

But having said that, at this age, Arabelle can communicate with the magic network and directly mobilize it for her own use.

If you specialize in learning arcana, you will definitely have some achievements and achievements in the future.

After thinking for a moment, Gale said with great seriousness:

"Listen to me carefully, Arabelle, you have extraordinary potential. If you have the opportunity, you must learn arcana systematically,"

"Also, where are your parents? Why are you all alone?"

"……I have no idea."

Hearing the solemn words of this beautiful elder sister, Arabelle shook her head in disappointment.

Then she told everyone the reason for everything.

Before the tiefling refugee was captured by the Order of the Supreme God, her father took her family away during the chaos. However, when they encountered danger, her parents asked her to run away first.
But this time they said goodbye, they never met again.

Even Arabelle doesn't know how long she has been here. In short, she is hiding here and there, looking for traces of her parents...

After hearing the description, Karak felt quite sympathetic and took out his untouched cookie:
"Then you must be hungry, right? I just have a cookie here."

Being separated from their parents and wandering alone in the dark, this kind of experience arouses pity. The tiefling refugees really have a bad fate.

If they hadn't met at this moment...
