An infinite journey starting from Baldur's Gate

Chapter 58 Duke Gao

Taking the initiative to carry the woman in the long skirt, Ma Long gave an instruction and led the two of them towards the exit.
After all, it was the third time I came in. The route was very clear. However, before I took two steps, two people fell to their knees one after another and coughed non-stop...

"Don't breathe!"

Hearing the noise, Ma Long quickly turned around to remind them and came to them at the same time,
He helped him up, dragged him with force, and walked downstairs. At this time, the fire became more intense, and the beam above his head made a creaking sound.

I think it won't be long before this place collapses.

He had no choice but to grab time and escape before the roof collapsed...

But after all, one person's strength is limited, and the weight of three people rested on him. After walking more than ten meters downstairs, he also started coughing violently.

My lungs were burning, even though I was trying to breathe all the time,
But...the human body has its limits.

Paji~

In the end, Malone couldn't bear it any longer and fell to his knees. Vere and the black woman also lay down, and they both fainted.
As for the thing on his back, he didn't know the situation. There was no movement at all, which obviously wasn't good either.

At this moment, Ma Long shouted with all his strength with only one breath left:
"Shadow Heart!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a person ran out of the thick smoke. It was Ying Xin who had followed the sound! The reason for keeping him outside is

This is to prevent this from happening!

"I'll take you out."

"Ahem! Take them out first!"

Ma Long refused Ying Xin's offer of help. He could hold on for a while longer, but he couldn't stay with these people around him for a moment longer!

People can also breathe unconsciously.
If you wait a second longer, you will inhale more smoke and eventually die.

After hearing this, Ying Xin couldn't resist him, so he had to drag Wei Er and the black woman outside first. Then, veins popped out on Ma Long's forehead and he clenched his teeth.
With tenacious perseverance, he stood up again despite carrying one person on his back.
Following Ying Xin's direction, he opened his legs with difficulty,
Bang!

As soon as the front foot left, a flaming beam fell down! It hit him hard where he was just now, and Ma Long didn't look back.

All his attention was focused on the exit. He had already seen the light outside through the thick smoke!

His strong desire for life enabled him to stimulate his potential and lead him to the finish line in one step or two...

The next moment, Ma Long successfully passed through the thick smoke and arrived outside the hotel. When his lungs took in fresh air, he collapsed completely.

A smile appeared on the face that was so blackened by smoke.
Survived and successfully rescued people.

[Reward: Armor of Oath of Glory]

At this time, two prompts suddenly popped up in the system. Normally, Ma Long would definitely be looking forward to it and excited, but now... I really don't have that idea.
Gradually, his eyelids felt heavy and he slowly closed them.

Just as he fell into a deep sleep, the material and texture of his armor were quietly undergoing major changes. What changes were there?
Only when you wake up will you know.

……

"Ma Long, wake up."

I don’t know how long it took, but Ma Long, who was sleeping, heard soft calls,
He slowly opened his eyes, and what he saw was Weier's pretty face. Although it was not as delicate as Astelon, it was still pretty. The only flaw was...

"It would look better if you were...paler."

As soon as these words came out, Ma Long, who was in a daze, suddenly woke up!

Seeing the other person's frown, he quickly sat up with an embarrassed look on his face, and kept gesticulating with his hands to explain: "What, I just wasn't thinking clearly!"

Although he said so, those words did reveal his true inner thoughts in disguise. People are most likely to speak their minds when they are confused~

At this time, the woman in the long skirt that Ma Long carried out from the fire walked straight over and bowed:

"You are awake, respected paladin. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you."

Accompanying them were the few people who rushed into the hotel to save people. They saluted and thanked them one after another. They rushed into the fire scene rashly. If Ma Long hadn't dragged them out with great effort,
They must have all perished in the flames.

"You're welcome, it's your duty."

Seeing this, Ma Long stood up, clenched his fist and lightly tapped the armor on his chest, smiling slightly.

This woman in a long skirt is not ordinary. First of all, she is a wood elf with a brownish complexion.
There are three different types of elves in Faerûn, namely high elves, wood elves and drow.

Astelon is a high elf, with fair complexion and delicate appearance.
The skin color of wood elves is closer to that of trees, hence their name. As for the last drow, they are the dark elves lying everywhere in the hotel.

"Counsellor Florrick, are you feeling better?"

Weier suddenly asked the other party with concern on his face. It was obvious that the two knew each other.

The woman named Florrick nodded:

"You're recovering well, Weir. I'm glad you guys came to help, but you must explain it to the paladin about your father."

"We won't stay here any longer. Farewell, Flame Fists! Let's take action!"

After saying that, everyone in the hotel courtyard immediately left, leaving only Ma Long and the three of them. After watching these people leave,

Weier lowered his head and sighed, with a sad face.

Shadow Heart held a blue longbow and played with it curiously.

Seeing this, Ma Long basically understood what happened during his coma, but he still had to wait for someone to speak in person.

"You two, can you please explain?"

"I think it's better for her to explain."

Hearing this, Shadow Heart shrugged and looked at the Border Blade. She was still sighing and annoyed, as if she was regretting something.

Then Malone also shifted his gaze. Weier looked up at him and explained helplessly.

The Duke of Ravengard that those people wanted to rescue was the ruler of Baldur's Gate, a famous city in the Sword Coast on the west coast of Faerûn.
He is also a famous, highly accomplished and respected Duke Gao.

But now he has been captured, by the large group of troops who passed by Moon Shelter before.
And the most important thing is that this Duke of Ravengard is the father of Border Blade, and she is his only daughter.

At this point, Weir's background as a daughter of a nobleman has been officially revealed.

After listening to the explanation, Ma Long pretended to think for a while and asked:
"So that's what Advisor Florrick wants to ask us to save your father, the Duke of Ravengard, right?"

"...Yes, I must go to the goblin camp immediately to rescue him,"

"Baldur's Gate, we can't lose him."

It is related to his father and the future of a city. Weier solemnly declares that this Duke is very important. As a woman, how can she just sit back and watch when her father is in trouble?
Furthermore, the hero of the Sword Coast, the Blade of the Border, cannot let the leader of Baldur's Gate,
Kidnapped by a group of evil forces!
No matter which factor, she must go to the rescue.

"I understand, your business is our business. Since we have become partners, we should help each other and set off immediately to go back to the goblin camp."
