Lord of the Oasis Chapter 817: -820
Chapter 817: The two who rushed to the top of the mountain
The teleportation array could not send them directly to the Goblin Country's territory. After Kant and Abel stopped at the stronghold halfway up the mountain, they asked the way to the main city gate.
"Hey! I'm Abel, the leader of the elf soldiers! I'm friends with your Highness Gilbert, and now there's an urgent matter! We must meet him." Bull yelled at the goblin soldiers on the wall.
The goblin soldiers who heard the movement looked at each other, but some soldiers recognized Kant and Abel. The gates were opened for them, and they went down the tower to meet them.
"Hello, Your Majesty Kant of Calradia." A goblin soldier walked up to Kant, saluted him and asked, "His Majesty Gilbert has not returned to the palace. I don't know why you are looking for him. thing?"
"Where is Gilbert now?" Abel asked anxiously.
"I'm on my way back from the Snake Woman's territory. It is estimated that I won't be able to return to the country until late tonight." The goblin soldier answered Abel's question.
Kant nodded, bent down slightly, took the soldier's hand, and said, "Thank you. Today, one of our companions is missing. At the moment, it seems that this matter is going with Gilbert to Snake Woman. It is related to what the territory has done. We would like to discuss the next steps with His Royal Highness Gilbert.”
"I see." The goblin soldier frowned when he heard Kant's explanation. Then he greeted the two of them: "Then I will send my soldiers to take the two adults into the palace immediately. When His Royal Highness Gilbert returns to the city, I will report this to him."
"Okay, then I'll trouble you." Kant nodded in thanks.
The goblin soldier summons the soldier next to him and whispers a few words in his ear. After the subordinate withdrew, not long after, a carriage was brought in front of Kant and Abel.
The goblin coachman who stepped off the carriage quietly stepped aside after setting up the small ladder for boarding.
Kant and Abel looked at each other and said goodbye to the soldiers: "Goodbye, everyone."
"Be careful on the road," the goblin soldier instructed.
Kant stepped on the ladder first and boarded the carriage. The goblin's carriage is a little narrower than the one used by the human race. After Abel also squeezed into the carriage, Kant could only helplessly tighten his shoulders.
With the crowing of the horses, the carriage moved and galloped towards the main road in the city.
Because of their awkward posture, Kant and Abel did not say a word for the entire distance. Until half an hour passed, the driver opened the curtain and greeted the two to get off. The two of them breathed a sigh of relief and walked outside the carriage to move their muscles and bones.
"Two adults, we have arrived." The coachman pointed to the door of the palace and said, "The guards at the door will arrange the next itinerary for you."
"Okay, thank you," Abel agreed.
"It's fine." The driver said with a smile, "I'll leave first."
"Hmm."
After the carriage left the palace gate, Kant looked around: it wasn't the center of the city, and there weren't many buildings around. Most of the few pedestrians who came and went on the street were dressed in luxurious clothes. It seems that this is a residential area specially provided for goblin nobles.
At this time, a soldier in armor stepped forward and spoke to the two of them: "Is this a guest who came to see His Royal Highness Gilbert? Did the army guarding the city send you here?"
"Yes." Kant nodded politely and replied: "I heard that His Royal Highness Gilbert is on his way back to China. I don't know where we can wait for him?"
"His Royal Highness will not be able to return to the bedroom until the early hours of the morning to rest. Please follow me to the accommodation that I have arranged for you." The soldier responded: "When His Royal Highness Gilbert returns home, some soldiers will rush over immediately. Let everyone know."
"Well, okay." Kant pursed his lips and agreed.
The soldiers took the two to an ornate resting place, then resigned and left.
“Now we can only hope that Gilbert can return to this goblin country safely and meet us.” Kant took a sip of tea and said to Abel.
"Yeah." Abel leaned against the window and replied softly, "I don't know how Bandak is now"
Although both of them were exhausted, the unease in their hearts prevented them from going to the bed and laying down to rest. Can only sit at the tea table silently waiting for the news.
Peek did not walk far with the unconscious Bandak. After walking out of the sight of the onlookers, he returned to the residence he bought on the street.
He has not informed other members of the dark side of this action. Just because he was really angry with Gilbert's arrogant style, he couldn't help but shot Bandak and his party.
After Kant and others entered the town, the orc who was in charge of contacting him introduced himself to the background of this group of people. And he told them to keep an eye on them: the 'Yin Chi' bug was also planted on Bandak at that time.
Peek looked through the gap in the window to the door of the union and saw the army of goblins surveying the scene. There are also Kant and Abel who heard the news. The two stood in front of the door of the guild, not knowing what they were talking about with their heads lowered.
"Sipa. Go and hear what they're saying." Pique ordered softly, staring at Kant's location.
A small snake with a transparent body swam from the window sill on the second floor to the stone steps beside Kant, and the two did not notice its existence. The content of the conversation echoed in Pique's pinna with unparalleled clarity.
"Huh." Pique sneered when he heard that Kant was planning to declare war on the dark side forces, and said with disdain: "It's just a small desert country. It really has no self-knowledge."
"you"
While Peak was still monitoring Kant, Bandak, who was lying on the floor, woke up, but his consciousness was still in a trance state. After seeing the unfamiliar back in front of him, he hesitated. Called out.
Peek was so frightened by the sudden cry that he cut off the connection of his spiritual power, and the little snake called 'Sipa' also shrank into a hole in the ground.
This transparent snake is very afraid of sunlight. Without the blessing of magic, it can only stay in a place without sunlight.
"Sipa!" Peak said uncontrollably. After not seeing the little snake, he turned around angrily and glared at Bandak. Said: "What the **** are you calling!"
"I remember." After Bandak regained consciousness, he stared at Pique and said, "You are that **** animal trainer!"
"Well, then what?" Peak raised a wooden chair, threw it at Bandak, and said angrily, "It's all because of your ghost call just now, and now Percy doesn't know where to go. Oh! You guys are really brooms!"
Chapter 818: Accomplices encountered on the street
Bandak caught the wooden chair that flew in front of him, stood up and asked Pique, "I was stunned by the cheetah you raised from behind, right?"
"Looks like its slap wasn't hard enough." Peake looked out the window and said to Bandak behind him.
"Since I've woken up, let's have another fight." Bandak reached out to his waist, but unexpectedly found that his weapon was not in the scabbard.
"Oh." Pique leaned against the window, looked at Bandak and sneered: "I'm not in the mood to continue fighting with you. What's more, I don't think you have what it takes to fight me now. Eligibility."
"Bastard! Don't underestimate it!" Bandak shouted angrily, clenching his fists. In his eyes, just fighting with these hands is enough to deal with the attack brought by Pique. However, the words in his mouth were only halfway through, and a tear-like pain came from the knees of his legs. Let him fall to the floor instantly.
"I don't like fighting, and I fought you for a few rounds just because I wanted the 'Yin Chi' child to grow up in your body." Pique's mouth twitched in a strange way smiled and continued: "Now it seems that they are growing quite well."
"Damn!" Bandak's lower limbs were completely paralyzed by the effect of the larvae invading his bone marrow.
“Does it hurt right now?” Peak squatted in front of Bandak and said innocently, “It’s okay, it won’t hurt in a few days. Because they will also invade your brain and occupy your Nerve. Instead of you, be 'you'."
"What is your purpose?" Bandak asked through gritted teeth.
"The purpose, there is a small purpose is to use you to exchange members of our organization." Peak met Bandak's eyes and said seriously: "It's just that I think that you who let your consciousness be manipulated It's a good plan for the Goblin Nation and your Calradia to be disturbed. What do you think?"
"Bah, you can't do any of these things." Bandak said angrily: "Even if I die, I won't let you use me to attack Calradia."
"Humph." Pique snorted coldly, "Your life is in my hands, and it is up to me to decide whether you live or die."
After saying this, Peak stood up and walked out the door. His main concern now is the safety of Sipa. After locking the door, he walked quickly to the downstairs lobby, hiding behind the door to observe the movement on the street.
Kant and Abel have left their place and don't know where to go. After the goblin soldiers settled everything and left the scene, the crowd of onlookers gradually dispersed.
Peek carefully walked to the gate of the guild while looking at the pedestrians on the road, and whispered: "Sipa, Sipa, where are you?"
"Hiss—" A familiar voice came from the stairs leading to the guild gate.
Peek immediately walked over, crawling on the ground, searching for Sipa's figure. Finally stopped in front of a hidden hole in the ground, where Sipa was timidly hiding.
"Sipa, I'm here to pick you up." Pique said happily: "Let's go back."
Peak stretched out his hand to Sipa, and a spiritual force flowed from his fingertips to the top of Sipa's head. As if healed, Sipa walked out of the hole naturally, walked slowly to Pique's shoulder, and disappeared into the air.
Peak exhaled in relief, stood up straight, and patted the dust on himself.
"Fortunately, I didn't lose it this time." Peak whispered.
"Peak!" At this moment, a rude voice reached Peek's ear. It made his heart tighten instantly.
"Mundy." With a stiff smile on his face, Peak raised his hand to greet the approaching Orc.
"What are you doing here?" Mundy walked up to Pique, patted him on the shoulder and asked, "I was standing on the street in the West City just now, and I could feel the movements of those darlings in your hands. in trouble?"
"Yeah" Pique curled his lips and said, "Yes, I met someone who had troubled me before, and I wanted to teach him a lesson. I didn't expect that the action was a bit bigger."
"It's a small matter." After listening to Pique's explanation, Mundy waved his hand easily and said with a smile: "It can only be said that the person's luck is not so good. The people on the side will settle it for you."
"Thank you so much." Peak nodded.
"No." Just as Peak was about to leave, Mundy stopped him and asked, "By the way, how are the people I arranged for you to monitor now?"
"How?" Pique frowned and thought for a while. "Not so, they seem to have handed over the investigation to the king of the goblin country. Now they are hanging out all day."
"That's it," said Mundy, stroking his hair, "that's really boring. Just watch it for a few more days. If they don't investigate, the monitoring task can be cancelled."
"But" Peak said hesitantly.
"Don't worry, Lord 'Kingdom' just told us to beware of outsiders in this archipelago." Mundy said: "They can't make any waves."
"Okay then." Pique replied, "Then I will continue to observe."
"Okay," Mundy said, nodding, "I just came to say hi to you. Gotta go back and have a drink with my friends, bye."
"Yeah." Peake bent slightly.
Pique also walked back to his residence after seeing Mundy turn his back and leave.
Going up to the second floor, Peak stood quietly outside the door for a while, and there was no movement in the room. This made him frown.
After gently releasing the door lock, a strong impact knocked Pique seven or eight meters away. fell on the edge of the wall.
Peek holds his dazed head and looks forward. Seeing Bandak dragging his legs appeared in his name.
"How did you rush out?" Peak asked curiously, staring at Bandak as if he were looking at the monster.
"Hmph," Bandak raised his head and looked down at Pique and said, "I said, even if I die, I won't let myself be controlled by a villain like you."
"Haha." Pique laughed: "Do you think you can prevent the spread of insect eggs by sealing up your own meridians?"
"At least for now, the effect is not bad." Bandak's mouth curled into a smile, and he said confidently: "Although I don't know how long it will take, it should be enough to defeat you with this gap. ."
Peek's eyes instantly turned cold, he patted the dust on his body, stood up and said to Bandak: "Try it."
Chapter 819: The second round of battle
No more to say. Bandak raised his fist and smashed it into Pique's face.
"Too slow." Pique dodged Bundak's attack and beckoned to Bendak.
Bendak was unable to keep up with Pique's stature in time due to limited mobility of his lower limbs. You can only use your body to resist Pique's punches and kicks, and look for opportunities to counterattack.
After more than a dozen rounds, Bandak's face was already painted. It's just that in the face of Bandak's huge size, in the narrow space of this stairway, Pique's extreme dodge is not a coincidence. Although he kept trying to change the battlefield, Bandak stood still, as still as a mountain. Even if Pique deliberately sold his flaws and was beaten to the ground by him, Bandak would not pursue the victory. Follow him to shift positions.
Bandak's battle-hardened physique came into play at this time, and the injury didn't become a burden, but the intense battle made him even more excited. And as time passed, Pique exposed more and more flaws in the battle.
Unconsciously, Bandak gradually gained the upper hand.
"You" Peake squatted in the corner, panting, staring at Bandak.
At the beginning of the battle, he summoned the energy of the 'predator' kept in his body and grafted it on himself, allowing him to successfully evade a punch from Bandak.
However, as of now, Pique's spiritual power is running out, and he can no longer maintain the 'predatory form'.
"What's the matter?" Bandak dragged his legs, walked slowly to Pique, and said to him with a mocking expression, "Are you all that good? I haven't started to use my full strength yet."
"I admit defeat." Peak raised his hands in surrender. After seeing Bandak approaching, the fierce light in his eyes flashed, and he used the silver blade hidden between his sleeves.
"Don't play tricks on me." Bandak grabbed Pique's wrist and warned viciously.
"Let me go." Peak's face contorted from the pain in his wrist. call out.
"Where's the antidote for the worm you gave me?" Bandak stared at Pique and asked.
"There is no antidote, just let me go!" Peak struggled.
"Humph!" Bandak let go, Pique clutched his right wrist and groaned on the ground. Glancing up, I saw Bandak pulled out a pocket knife and asked in horror, "What are you going to do?"
"Since you won't speak, I can only force you to speak." Bandak glanced at Pique, raised his knife, and made a small incision in his upper leg.
Seeing this scene, Peek widened his eyes and said, "You lunatic, what are you going to do?"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Bandak stared at his wound for a while, and after seeing a wriggling larva, he quickly lifted it out of his body with his fingertips.
The larvae of 'Yin Chi' are milky white, still twisting from side to side as they move between Bandak's palms.
Bandak looked at Pique, who was cowering in the corner, and asked indifferently, "I'll ask you one last time, where is the antidote?"
"I, I, I'll give you the antidote." Pique's pupils trembled violently, and after swallowing a mouthful of saliva, he explained to Bandak.
"Now, give it to me," Bandak beckoned.
Peek staggered back to his room, rummaging through boxes and cabinets to find a bottle of red medicinal liquid. Trembling handed to Bandak.
Bandak took the medicine bottle in his hand, looked at it repeatedly, looked up and said to Peake, "You won't lie to me, will you?"
"No, no," Peak responded nervously.
Bandak thought for a while, opened the cap, and poured the liquid medicine on the larva in his hand.
After seeing the larvae's corpse vaporize, Bandak raised his eyebrows and drank the remaining liquid in one gulp.
After a while, the lower limbs of the body regained consciousness, and some viscous secretions came out of the pores, with a slight stench.
Bandak nodded with satisfaction and said to Peake, "You told me your real name, right?"
"Yes," Pique agreed.
"Okay." Bandak took out his handkerchief to stop the bleeding wound, and nodded, "Then see you next time."
"You" Pique's eyes widened in amazement and asked Bandak: "You, aren't you going to kill me?"
"No," Bandak shook his head and said, "This time I am raiding you, and you will be defeated when you underestimate the enemy. If I kill you at this time, I will not look down on it. My own."
Peek was speechless for a moment after hearing what Bandak had to say.
But Bandak didn't expect his response, and after a short rest, he lifted his legs and left the room.
The Snake Girl guild downstairs has not yet opened, but the long queue has killed Bandak's hope of lining up.
"Your Majesty, where are they now?" Bandak tried to recall for a while, but he came up with no results. He glanced at the tattered clothes on his body. Bandak reluctantly walked towards the hotel where he stayed last night.
As soon as he walked into the lobby, the boss immediately greeted him and asked him, "Lord Bandak, why are you back?"
"What's the matter?" Bandak sat down on the bench beside him and said to the boss, "Can I ask you to help me get some ointments for wounds. My body is blue and purple, always It's too conspicuous."
"Yes, yes." The boss quickly agreed, and then he greeted the waiter who was cleaning the table and asked him to bring the medicine box.
"I heard that you were targeted by the animal trainer who likes to find faults around here. Did he hit you for the injury on your body?" the boss asked cautiously.
"Yes." Bandak responded with a frown. And I was slightly surprised to think in my heart: the news spread so quickly.
"Ah, the medicine is here." The innkeeper instructed the waiter to put down the medicine box, and said to Bandak thoughtfully: "My lord, I'll hire someone to give you the medicine."
"No." Bandak waved his hand indifferently, picked up the medicine box on the table, and walked towards the stairs leading to the second floor. And said: "I can give myself medicine, you just need to send someone to pick up this box."
"Yes." The innkeeper replied respectfully.
"Oh, that's right." With a glimmer of hope, Bandak turned to the boss standing in the open space and asked, "Do you know where the two people who settled down with me went?"
"You are talking about Lord Kant and Lord Abel." The innkeeper thought for a while and said, "Listen to the waiter who came back from the street: They seem to have gone to the teleportation base on the main street, and they are probably going up the mountain. ."
"Up the mountain?" Bandak's expression immediately became tangled.
Chapter 820: The hero of economic distress
Bandak trudged back to the wing.
He just ran out of the hotel door on his own impulse. After discovering that he was penniless, he turned back dejectedly.
"Lord Bandak, what's the matter with you?" The boss who was clearing the bill at the counter asked curiously when he looked at his appearance.
"It's nothing." Bandak glanced at the boss, and his mood dropped even more.
From the current point of view, His Majesty Kant and Abel should go up the mountain to find the goblin family and the gnome family for help. But they didn't know that they had escaped from Pique's hands.
The cost of taking the teleportation array is extremely high. Before Kant and Abel go down the mountain, I can only continue to stay in this town and do something for them.
"Boss, do you have a messenger up the mountain here?" Abel asked reluctantly.
"Yes, but the time when the recipients come to the town is not fixed." The innkeeper thought for a while, and responded, "Master Bandak, do you need to send the letter up the mountain? If the messenger comes to the town, I'll send someone to let you know."
"Thank you." Bandak nodded. "Then, what is the cost of sending a letter up the mountain?"
Bendak bowed his head in shame when he asked the question. Once again, he made up his mind in his heart: he must keep some of the money in his own hands in the future, and he can no longer give it to Abel.
"I remember that the price of a letter seems to be three silver coins. After all, the messenger also rides up the mountain in a teleportation array." The innkeeper said, "It doesn't make much money at all if you come and go."
"Oh." Bandak touched the dry purse and nodded, "Thank you."
"No." The boss shook his head with a smile. Then continue to bury your head in the ledger.
Bandak silently walked away from the counter.
"This animal trainer is quite heavy." Bandak endured the pain and applied medicine to himself, while recalling the figure of Peake scurrying around the stairway.
"Dong dong dong!" After applying the ointment to the mirror, there was a knock on the door.
"Who is it?" Bandak asked suspiciously. After putting on his shirt, he immediately walked to the door and opened it.
"Hello, Mr. Bandak." After seeing Bandak open the door, a waiter with a plate stammered and greeted: "The store has prepared some light meals for you. Most of the food is helpful for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, I hope you can accept it.”
"Huh?" Bandak glanced at the dishes on the plate, swallowed, and asked, "Do these cost money?"
"Huh?" The waiter wondered, "No, no, you don't have to pay. These are all gifts from our shop."
"Oh, that's good. You bring it in." Bandak called to the waiter after calming down.
Now he can save money and send a letter to His Majesty Kant.
"Then I'll retire first, please take your time." After the waiter put the exquisite dishes on the table, he retreated to the door and resigned to Bandak.
"Well, thank you," Bandak replied, nodding.
The waiter gently closed the door and walked down the stairs. On the way back to the kitchen, I met the owner of the inn.
"Hello boss." The waiter said respectfully.
"How's it going? Has Lord Bandak accepted the meal you sent?" the innkeeper asked nervously.
"Take it," the waiter responded.
"That's good." The boss nodded happily and said, "Lord Bandak got rid of the villain Pique for us, and for this alone, we have to take good care of others. "
"You're right, boss." The waiter echoed.
Bandak sat down at the table and began to eat his first meal of the day.
Now the sun is shining brightly outside the window, and the streets are full of homeless people looking for a place to eat. Unconsciously, the hour hand has already pointed to the meal time.
After a hearty meal, leaning against the window and watching the people coming and going, Bandak's expression couldn't help but become melancholy.
"Looks like I'm still not a good fit for myself," Bandak read softly.
I don't know if Kant and Bandak have reached the top of the mountain now, have they seen the gnome chief or the goblin king.
If only I could follow up the mountain to find them.
In the palace of the goblin kingdom, Kant and Abel sat for a long time in their guest room.
While the two were drowsy, a goblin waiter brought dinner to the dining car and said to them: "Two guests, His Royal Highness Gilbert encountered a heavy rain on the way back. It is estimated that we will have to wait. You won't be back home until noon tomorrow. You don't have to sit here and wait. Let's have some dinner first."
"Have you encountered a heavy rain?" Kant took a deep breath and said, "Thank you, we'll have dinner."
"Okay." The goblin waiter glanced at Bandak, who had always been silent, and bowed slightly before exiting the room.
Able walked over to the dining car and silently put the dishes on the table one by one. Then he sat down beside Kant and said, "Your Majesty, let's have something to eat first."
Kant held his forehead and glanced at the dinner on the table. He sighed and said, "Well, let's eat."
The room was so quiet that only the sound of silver knives and forks colliding with dishes.
The meal didn't take much time, as neither of them had much appetite. The waiter who came to clear the dishes, after seeing most of the dishes left on the plate. Without disturbing the quiet time for the two of them, he silently pushed up the dining cart and walked out.
"Gilbert won't be here tonight," Kant said.
"Bandak he," Abel said worriedly.
"It's okay, I believe in Bandak." Kant shook his head and said.
The air in the room became quiet again~IndoMTL.com~ The rain stretched from the sky to the bottom of the mountain. The top of the mountain is still in the sweltering environment before the torrential rain.
The unease in Kant and Bandak became agitated again.
Abel got up and opened the window, letting the wind slam in.
"It's so boring to be indoors. Let's go out for a walk," Kant suggested.
"Yeah," Abel agreed. Then the two opened the door and walked out of their room. Wandering among the spacious palaces.
The sky is already raining, crackling against the stained glass bed.
Abel watched as the rain became heavier, covering Kant's return from the clearing to the eaves. And asked with concern: "Your Highness, are you all right?"
"It's all right, thanks to you." Kant shook his head easily and said, "I didn't even catch the rain."
"That's good," said Abel, exhaling.
