An infinite journey starting from Baldur's Gate

Chapter 8 New Weapons

Brain Flower, whose name is Brain Eater, is a special monster created by the Mind Flayer using the brains of humanoid creatures. Its favorite prey is people with outstanding intelligence.
On the contrary, the less intelligent ones are...

Therefore, the paladin with low intelligence was despised~

Although Ma Long was deeply dissatisfied, the actual actions of the brainiacs had proved everything. When he raised the hammer again and prepared to attack the brainflowers,
Ying Xin suddenly put his hand on his shoulder, with a calm expression on his face:
"Since they are not interested in us, why waste time and energy anymore,"

"Don't forget, the most important thing right now is the guy in your head, not them. I hope you can think about it carefully before making a decision."

Although Brain Eaters are short and ugly, even as tall as a person's knees, they are not weak in combat! Can tangle with flying little devils,

It's really a stupid idea to start a fight rashly.

After hearing this, Ma Long immediately calmed down and was no longer angry.
He looked deeply at Ying Xin beside him:
"There is no need to think about it. If these evil creatures are not eliminated, they will attack travelers in the future."

The reason why he wants to fight is not because the brain-eating monster dislikes his low intelligence.
If left alone, they will find new food once they have eaten the carcass.

"...Oh, okay then."

After knowing the idea, Ying Xin sighed helplessly.

After saying that, Malone handed the mace back to the opponent, then walked straight to Cambion's charred corpse and pierced the flaming giant sword into his belly.
It was still glowing and hot, and then he stretched out his hand and grasped the hilt of the sword tightly,

At this moment, my body involuntarily produced an inexplicable familiar feeling, as if I had held the sword for a long time and had an extremely deep understanding of the sword!
Be proficient in various techniques and master them well,
And these are naturally due to his proficiency in weapons.

He pulled out the sword with all his strength, and it was very heavy. It was basically not less than twenty kilograms. It was hard to measure how heavy it was by feeling.
And this thing is not a special item, but a magic weapon! Can form a spiritual connection with the user,
You can choose whether to attach the flame or not, extinguish it when not in use, and rekindle the raging fire immediately when entering battle! Very user friendly.

"What a good weapon."

After struggling to lift the giant sword, Ma Long couldn't help but sigh, his eyes filled with joy. In his opinion, the paladin had to use a heavy giant sword.
Leap high and invite the enemy to taste the holy slash!

After getting the new weapon, the next moment he turned his target to the Brain-Eating Monster.
At the same time, he nodded to Ying Xin, who was standing aside, to kill two of them first. There were only three in the cabin, and the remaining one could be dealt with no matter what.

After making a plan, the two of them split up and approached slowly as slowly as possible.

And the moment they were in place! Ma Long and Ying Xin raised their weapons and slammed them down!

The flaming blade almost cut one of the brains in half without any hindrance, and the hammer was even harder. Not only was the point of stress dented, but the brains were flying everywhere!
"Squeak!"

Upon noticing the death of the same kind, the remaining one made a noise similar to that of a rat.
Angrily, he jumped up from the ground and attacked Ma Long!

Seeing this scene, Ma Long reacted and quickly raised his weapon to block. He first used the sword blade to block the opponent's sharp claws.
Immediately afterwards, he kicked the tip of the sword that touched the ground with force, and at the same time bounced the brain-eating monster away,
He also resumed his sword-raising posture!
He jumped directly and vigorously, jumping to a height of more than one meter to use the downward slashing move!
The moment the brain-eating monster landed on the ground and stood up, it was split into two by the hot sword edge! At this point the battle came to an end.

The victory was very easy, and Ma Long himself did not expend much energy.
Of course, this is thanks to the blessing of skills~

Otherwise, no matter how hard he racks his brains, he won't be able to kick the sword with his foot, so that he can raise the weapon again quickly and effortlessly.

At this time, Ying Xin put away the hammer and praised:

"Your strength recovered very quickly."

He realized that Ma Long was completely different now from the time he was in hell, and the difference was visible to the naked eye.

"I can do more than that. You will see it in the future. Let's go."

Hearing this, Ma Long grinned meaningfully.

Since there was no scabbard or strap, he could only hold the heavy weapon and continue to explore the crashed ship. Fortunately, his strength attribute was 12 points.
Although it may not seem high, in fact it has reached the basic level of a warrior apprentice.
It's not too difficult to carry a few dozen kilograms of weight. As they explored further, the two discovered more corpses and dead mind flayers, and looted a few gold coins and beautiful gems from them.
It's useless at the moment, but it will be very useful in places with many people.

When Ma Long saw this, he showed his true nature as a money-lover and put them all into his pocket. At this, Yingxin was surprised and speechless.
I never thought there were some paladin who were greedy for money?
Just as they were searching along the way, they passed by a swaying storage bag...

Boom!Boom!
"Help! Open the damn thing!"

The cry for help caught the attention of the two people, and they turned to look over. They saw a woman imprisoned in the storage bag, wearing gorgeous silk clothes.
She has thick, silky pale hair hanging down her shoulders, and a delicate and beautiful face full of fear.

He kept banging on the hood.

The other party was lucky and survived the crash under the protection of the storage bag.

"Want to save?"

"If we don't save each other until we die, that's fine."

Facing Shadow Heart's question, Ma Long shrugged and nodded. After all, paladins and priests are kind-hearted people who save lives and heal the wounded.

Immediately, he mobilized the power of the oath to attach to the tip of the sword and easily pierced the cover of the storage bag.
After several careful strokes, a hole was made so that the trapped woman could escape from the cage smoothly.

pat~

After getting out of the storage bag, the woman fell to the ground and knelt down on one knee before losing her balance. She lowered her head and took a deep breath of air, feeling the "long-lost" freedom.

"You...are you okay?"

Handing the sword to Ying Xin, Ma Long took a step forward and bent down to ask about the opponent's condition.

"Thank you~ I'm fine. Can you give me a hand? My legs are a little weak."

Hearing this, the woman stretched out her little hand softly and asked for help, still lowering her head.

Ma Long didn't notice anything strange at first, and stretched out his hand to pull the other person up, but the moment his hands met and touched,

His expression suddenly changed. The woman's body temperature was cold, and the back of her hands turned a sickly white color!
Subconsciously, he wanted to withdraw his hand, but the other party held it tightly and refused to let go. At the same time, he raised his head and showed an evil smile, and used his dexterity to perform a sweeping kick.

He directly tripped Ma Long to the ground and bullied him,

He quickly pulled out a sharp dagger from behind his waist and put it against his throat.

"Stop! Otherwise, I'll kill him!"

The ruse succeeded, and the woman yelled at Shadow Heart, who was trying to help, to stop moving.

"You'd better not do this and let him go, or you won't end well."

Ying Xin had a straight face, and there was no obvious murderous intention in his eyes.

"Haha~ If you have the ability, come and see if your movements are faster or my sword is faster."

The threatening words were heard, but the woman was not afraid at all. The blade pressed harder against Ma Long's neck, cutting the skin and bleeding.
