An infinite journey starting from Baldur's Gate

Chapter 84 Dark Cave

As the chanting of the mantra ended, the three people and even the scratching next to them were all affected by the Feather Falling Technique, and their bodies felt light and airy.

This spell can slow down the impact of falling from high altitude. As long as you land within the effective time limit,
will not be damaged.

After being fully prepared, Ma Long stood by the pothole, took a deep breath, and was about to jump down! Suddenly Asteron grabbed his arm:
"Wait a minute! We've all gone down, how will we come up then?"

Upon hearing this, Ma Long patted his forehead lightly and forgot about it.

He was very worried about his fallen companions. In his hurry, he ignored the problem. It would be easy to go down but difficult to come up.

"Then leave one person alone. Malone and I will go down. Astairen, you stay up there."

Gale immediately made the first suggestion.

However, Astelon smiled slightly when he heard this:
"Don't talk so fast, dear Gale~ I think you should stay behind. After all, we don't know what is going on down there,"

"When you encounter danger, you are the one who needs Ma Long's protection more. It's better for me to do it."

Going to a completely unknown environment, in terms of on-the-spot reaction, it is undeniable that a vampire spawn with extraordinary agility is far better than a mage with extraordinary intelligence.

But Gale was keenly aware that the other party's tone seemed to contain a hostility.
We are all companions, not enemies. Just when she was puzzled,
Ma Long suddenly said:

"How about deciding by guessing? Let's solve it in a child's way, and everyone should stop fighting."

At this moment, Gale suddenly realized, with a frosty face and a cold tone:

"It is true that I am powerless. This cannot be refuted. However, do you have a spell that can deal with various situations?"

"Going into the pothole is for rescue, not exploration! I am the most suitable candidate."

Most mages are a group of ambitious guys, and Gale, one of them, is naturally the same, and ambitious people,
Usually the desire to win is also stronger!
If the other party talks nicely, Gale might choose to compromise, but now...

"The best candidate? Ha~ That's not necessarily the case."

Astelon shrugged and sneered.

"Ah~ my friends, I think it's time for me to show up. You are in urgent need of someone to stay here, so let me, Varro, help you!"

Just when the two women were about to have a good argument, Varro, who had "leaved", suddenly popped out from a corner,
He looked grand and majestic, as if he were performing on stage. After all, heroes always appear at the most critical moments~

"Didn't you leave?"

Seeing that Varro was still there, Asteron said in surprise.

"Can we... really trust you?"

Gale, who was well aware of his past experiences, could not help but swallow his saliva and asked,
Now is not a good time to care about why the other party didn't leave. Besides, Varo is here, so the three of them can go down the hole together.

However, whether this bard can be trusted is a big question...

"Oh ~ Miss Gale, you should know that rumors are not trustworthy."

Faced with her doubts, Varro defended himself with excitement. Rumors in the world are sometimes made up by others out of thin air.
But Ma Long also knew the other party, and his expression was hard to describe:

"This... I beg to differ."

"Why do you care so much? Just ask someone. Don't waste any more time."

After saying that, Astelon took the lead and jumped into the pit. The cold and dark hole was like a monster's big mouth, swallowing it up instantly.

Wang!Wang!
Seeing this, Chushu ran to the edge, sniffed it, and then jumped down.

Fortunately, Ma Long grabbed the back of its neck in time and lifted the dog back.
"Tikka, stay here, you hear me?"

Woohoo~

Despite Scratch's whining pleas, Malone still shook his head and waved his hands, ordering him very seriously to stay here, under the Moon Shelter,
There are very dangerous things that cannot be dealt with by Tiaocheng.

"Stay up there, little one."

Gale smiled and patted the dog's head to comfort him, then jumped down towards the pothole without hesitation. "Varro, it's up to you."

"Don't worry, friend."

Carrying the weapon, Ma Long came to the edge of the dark pit, took two deep breaths, mustered up the courage in his heart, and jumped down.

……

After a moment, his feet touched the ground lightly, and Malone reached the bottom of the pit. Gale and Astaire, who came down first, held a ball of fire in their palms to serve as lighting.
It's very dark here. Without fire, you can't even see!
At this time, the two women were surrounding the unconscious Karak and kept calling:

"Karak, wake up."

"Hey! Tough guy, it's time to get up and eat."

Because the other person's surface temperature is too high, they dare not touch his body and can only try to wake him up through words.

"Where are Shadow Heart and Weir?"

Glancing around, Ma Long frowned.

There was only Karak near the pothole, and the other two companions were missing. Logically speaking, if the three of them fell together, they should stay together.

"I only saw him anyway."

Hearing this, Astelon shook his head and expressed that he was unclear.

"Something's not right. Even if they're not unconscious, they won't be running around. They'll definitely stay here and wait for us to come to rescue..."

"There is definitely something in this place, please be alert."

Gale glanced around with a solemn face. This place is a naturally formed cave, located about twenty meters below the surface.

Above everyone's heads were all sharp and upside-down stalactites.

Dense spider webs can be seen everywhere on the rock surface.

"I'll wake him up, please keep an eye on him."

As a reminder, Ma Long came to Karak's side, ignored him's high body temperature, held his shoulders and shook him back and forth, pinching his acupuncture points from time to time.
He didn't know if the meridians of tieflings were the same as those of humans, but at present, there was no better way.

Fortunately, Karak was not seriously injured. After the paladin's torment, he soon woke up feeling dizzy and covering his head.

"Hey~What...is going on?"

"Get up quickly, Shadow Heart and Wei Er are gone."

Ma Long struggled to help the strong man stand up and informed him of the current situation. The two companions were missing and the situation was very serious.

Apart from the paladins, the one who cares most about his companions is Karak.
After hearing this news, his expression suddenly changed:

"What?! Then let's go find it quickly!"

"Quiet! I heard some small noises, rustling..."

Suddenly, Astelon turned around and scolded.

As the human conversation ceased, there were waves of creepy little sounds coming from the dark cave, like some kind of multi-legged crawling creature...

The next moment, a big blue and white spider, two times bigger than a human, appeared.
Appear from the corner and slowly climb up the rock wall.

"... Damn it! It's a phase spider!"

Seeing what appeared in the darkness clearly, Gale showed panic, couldn't help but scream, and retreated behind Malone.

There are many people who are afraid of spiders, and she happens to be one of them.
