An infinite journey starting from Baldur's Gate

Chapter 26 Green Woodland
Because Ma Long kept looking at women, they left and still lingered. Seeing this, Astelon sneaked over and said,

Stomp hard on his instep!
This time it was really painful. Ma Long grinned and asked the other party why he did it.

"Is she as beautiful as me? Or is she more graceful and graceful than Gale? Apart from her black color, I really don't understand what is there about her that is worth looking at?"

"I thought you had no problem with your aesthetics, but now it seems... tsk tsk~"

Hearing this, Astelon looked sarcastic.

Border Blade - Weir, indeed pales in comparison to the two girls in the team, the vampire and the mage. Although the other girl is not bad in appearance,

But with her slightly darker skin, she is not as good as the two paladins next to her...

"Don't involve me, this has nothing to do with me, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Gale's expression changed and he quickly opened his mouth to clear the relationship.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Asteron is very interested in Ma Long, but she is different...at least she doesn't have any special thoughts for the time being.

"Hiss~ Are you afraid that there is..."

Taking a breath of cold air, Ma Long lifted his painful foot and rubbed it vigorously.
However, he was too lazy to argue too much with this woman. When the pain subsided, he looked at Sefolo and asked:

"Sefro, if I heard you right, you seemed to have mentioned the "Arch Druid" just now, right?"

"...Yes, this place is a green woodland, and a group of druids live here, but outsiders are no longer welcome here,"

"After you have replenished your strength, it is best to leave as soon as possible."

When the druid was mentioned, Sefro's face turned ugly, and he obviously had a bad relationship with him.

This successfully aroused Gale's curiosity and asked:

"why?"

Druids are a special group that advocates maintaining the balance of nature. Most of them can change their own form through magic.
Transformed into most animals and beasts in nature, despite their extraordinary fighting power,

But they are usually kind to people and do not damage nature when they come. Although they will not greet them with a smile, at least they will not drive people away.

Sefolo sighed and told the reason:
"I have to start over. My compatriots and I are refugees from Eltoril, and we are preparing to go to Baldur's Gate to find a new way to survive."

"While passing through here, we were attacked by goblins several times. Fortunately, the leader of the druids, the Archdruid, took us in kindly. But not long ago, she went out with the idiot Eladdin who quarreled with me,"

"Then, he and two other adventurers escaped, and the Archdruid didn't know whether he was alive or dead..."

Speaking of this, Sefolo looked regretful.
Although he did not know life or death, in his opinion, the benefactor who took him in was in danger.
Even if the archdruid is very powerful, he will not be able to escape death when facing countless goblins, unless his strength reaches the top level in Faerûn.

Completely unafraid of the advantage of numbers, he can destroy a large group of enemies with just a wave of his hand.

Immediately afterwards, Sefolo suddenly changed his expression and said seriously:

"With the leader gone, a druid named Kahar took the opportunity to firmly hold on to power,"

"Put all the responsibility for the goblins on us outsiders, and force us to leave within a certain period of time, otherwise...sigh."

As the words fell, the full picture of the matter was revealed. The reason why outsiders are not welcome is

The fundamental reason is that the leader in charge has changed.

Moreover, the anger of the new official taking office will directly burn to the tiefling. If he does not leave, he will definitely be burned, but when he leaves the door,
How far can you go? Either advance or retreat is a dead end!
"I feel a strong wave of magic network. Are those people Druids?"

"Are they preparing for a ceremony?"

At this time, Gale looked to the right of everyone, to a low-lying area, where there was an altar that continued to emit emerald green light.

Several figures were surrounding them. Due to her astonishing amount of knowledge, she could tell at a glance that they were performing some kind of ritual.

"Yes, the druids plan to seal off the woodland and completely cut off the outside world."

After hearing this, Sefolo turned around, looked at the altar and replied with sadness:

"Border Blade promised to help us buy some more time to stay. I just hope she can succeed...otherwise we will really be doomed."

The tiefling refugees are like standing on a single-plank bridge, with wolves in front of them, tigers behind them, and an abyss below them that leads them to a dead end.

The problem needs to be solved at the root, otherwise it will be useless no matter how long it is extended.

Ma Long, who remained silent throughout the whole process, looked at the altar solemnly and made a plan in his mind. He would definitely take care of this matter.
What the druid did seemed to him to be completely selfish.
It is not an exaggeration to criticize with words and words!
A complete blockade is understandable. After all, outside goblins will discover the green forest sooner or later and send a large number of troops to attack.

However, the insistence on driving away tieflings is outrageous and must be corrected.

"Nice to meet you, Sefolo, bye."

"Me too, thanks again."

After saying that, Ma Long strode into the cave. Seeing this, several companions followed him one after another.

As soon as they entered the cave, everyone was shocked by this naturally formed cave paradise. It was very wide and a good place to shelter from wind and rain.

Near the entrance, there was a short half-length who was busy arranging the things on the stall.
There is a dazzling array of various items, and you can tell that the other person is a businessman at a glance.

It's a pity that Malone doesn't have much money at the moment.
There is no need to take a look. I can’t afford to buy anything but I feel uncomfortable...

Going deeper into the cave, a camp appeared in front of us, and Sefulo's compatriots also appeared one after another. They had different skin colors but all had distinctive features such as horns and tails.

There are not many adult men among them, half are children, women and the elderly.

Those who can fight are even rarer, and all of them are very plainly dressed and have poor energy. After all, they are refugees. Leaving their homeland aside, they are now trapped in the green woodland because of the goblins.

"Ma Long...don't you have any ideas?"

Gale bit his lower lip lightly at this time, frowning slightly, obviously hinting at something.

"Do you mean help?"

Immediately, Ma Long looked back at the other party and smiled.

"Of course you're not going to stand idly by, right? I hope that's what you think."

"Wait a minute, Gale, we still have problems to deal with ourselves, why should we help these guys with horns on their heads?"

"Ying Xin, what do you think? I think insects are the first target."

The conversation between the two once again aroused Asteron's dissatisfaction. She had no intention of helping anyone and tried to win over the taciturn priest to join her side.

But the next second, Ying Xin's words left her speechless...

"I've heard that druids are good at healing. Maybe they have something to offer."

Now, the group had to negotiate with the Druid~
"...Damn it!"

There was no other way, Astelon could only curse silently and stop making any sound.

"I have to help, but my idea is to help the Border Blade. After all, she first promised to buy more time for Sefro's compatriots,"

"Let's go and find out where Weier is now."
