Lord of the Oasis Chapter 860:


Chapter 857: News from the waiter

After dinner, Abel and Kant returned to the guest room first, while Bundak walked down the stairs to the kitchen on the first floor because he needed to go to get medicine.

Abel follows Kant closely, following him into the guest room and closing the door.

Kant drank a lot of wine during the dinner, and his body seemed a little shaky at this time. Abel hurriedly helped him sit down, handed over the teapot and cup, and said, "Your Highness, you seem to be drunk, drink some tea slowly."

"Thank you." Kant nodded in agreement, then took the teapot and cup, and poured himself a cup of tea. He lifted it to his mouth and slowly drank it.

Abel breathed a sigh of relief, sat down beside Kant, and said, "Your Highness, do you feel that Bandak arrived in a strange state before dinner began?"

"Is it strange?" Kant raised his eyebrows and asked suspiciously.

"That's right," Abel nodded immediately. "We got some big news today. If it were a normal Bandak, he would jump to the ceiling excitedly. But his reaction, It's too cold."

"You seem to be saying that a little bit" Kant nodded while recalling: "Let's wait for Bandak to come back, let's ask him if something happened?"

"Hmm." Abel thought for a while, then nodded.

The two sat at the tea table and stayed silent for a while. But he never heard Bandak's knock on the door.

"Abel, you've been watching every time Bandak drinks medicine recently, right?" Kant said.

"I saw him drink it once, and in the days after that, he went to get the medicine himself." Abel responded: "But in my impression, he drank the medicine very fast every time he took it. Yes, why did you come back so slowly this time?"

"I think" before Kant's words could be finished, there was a "dong dong" knock on the door.

"I'm back." Abel stood up and said to Kant, then opened his legs and walked towards the entrance, twisting the door lock.

Unexpectedly, it was not Bandak who was standing outside the door, but the waiter who thought he was pale.

"Lord Abel, Lord Kant! It's not good!" The waiter said in a trembling voice: "Lord Bandak is poisoned."

"Poisoned?!" Abel immediately pushed the waiter away and stood by the fence in the corridor and looked towards the lobby.

The lobby on the first floor was also in chaos at this time, and the waiters in the store panicked around the door of the kitchen. ,

"Take me to have a look." Abel grabbed the collar of the waiter next to him and ordered him.

"Yes, yes." The waiter nodded nervously and walked downstairs with Abel.

As he walked to the top of the stairs, Abel suddenly remembered Kant who was still indoors. He raised his head and looked at the door of the guest room: I was in a hurry before, so the door was still open, and there was no Kant at the entrance.

"Strange" Abel muttered silently.

His Majesty Kant should also know the news of Bandak being poisoned and fell to the ground, why didn't he react.

The information in my mind became a mess because of this discovery. Abel's figure could not help but stop in place.

"Lord Abel, what's the matter with you?" The waiter noticed Abel's movements and turned around and asked nervously.

Abel raised his head from his contemplation and frowned at the half-orc waiter. He found that the other party's forehead was covered with sweat, and asked strangely, "Why are you so nervous?"

After the words fell, Abel put his right hand on the shoulder of the waiter. The moment he touched the other party, he felt the waiter's body shaking.

"Because Lord Bandak fainted." The waiter moved his gaze to Abel's arm and replied hesitantly.

"How did he faint, did you see that?" Abel continued. The strength of the grip on the shoulders also increased.

"I-I don't know, I'm just" the waiter replied falteringly, looking away.

Seeing this waiter for a long time can't say why. A silver light flashed in Abel's pupils, and he clapped his hands and said: "Bandak fainted, I have to find a few more people to take care of him with me, I will go to the soldier's room and ask. Before that, please help us call a carriage and send more people to look after him."

"But this" the waiter's expression became anxious.

Abel ignored him and turned to the third floor corridor.

Arriving on the third floor, Abel knocked on the door of every guest room, but received no response.

"Where are the soldiers? Where did you take them?" Abel yelled at the waiter who was standing at the corner of the stairs.

The waiter came back to his senses and saw Abel who was rushing towards him, with a look of horror on his face, he pulled up his legs and ran.

As Abel jumped down the stairs to chase the man, he was stopped by a familiar voice.

"Abel?" Bandak called out while standing at the door of the restaurant on the second floor, watching Abel passing by in front of his eyes.

"Bandak?" Abel stopped immediately, walked to Bandak, and said, "The waiters at this inn are really dishonest, they just tried to deceive me with the news that you were poisoned, soldier. Where are they? Are you here?"

"The soldiers are staying in the restaurant." Bandak didn't respond to Abel's words for a while, and said suspiciously: "The waiter in the restaurant said, you and Your Majesty let us continue to stay here, not allowed Go out. However, when all the dishes are eaten and you still don't show up in the restaurant, I can't help but come out to check the situation."

"Fortunately you came out, otherwise I couldn't think of it at all: These guys have trapped you here." Abel took a long breath and said, "The people in the hotel should be looking for opportunities while you are not paying attention. Ambush me and His Highness. Then threaten you with our lives."

After meeting with Bandak, Abel had already figured out the general logic, and there was a bit of anger and dissatisfaction in his tone.

"Why did the people in the inn do this to us?" Bandak opened his eyes slightly and asked, "And, what about Your Highness?"

"I don't know what they thought. Your Highness has traveled alone with the owner of the inn before. If they were members of the dark side and wanted us to surrender obediently, then they should have taken action. Your Highness did not Come out with me, I don't know if I found something wrong from the beginning, I will go back now and have a look. You quickly gather the soldiers. Let's rush out!" Abel explained.

Chapter 858: Clouds spreading over the hotel

"Okay!" Bandak agreed immediately. Turn around and walk towards the restaurant.

Abel also walked to Kant's guest room without a moment's delay.

The door to the guest room has been closed, and Abel has an ominous premonition in his heart.

Going to the door, slammed the door with the palm of his hand, and shouted: "Your Majesty Kant! Your Majesty Kant! Are you still there? Open the door for me, I'm Abel."

Abel leaned against the door with his ears sideways, anticipating the movement inside.

After the sound of the table and chairs moving, the door lock of the guest room was slowly twisted open. Abel held his breath and carefully hid his body behind the wall.

"Creak--" The door was opened the size of a crack.

"Abel?" After hearing Kant's voice, Abel, who was squatting by the wall, breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and responded: "Your Highness, the hotel is no longer safe, we rushed out with the soldiers to ."

After seeing Abel's face, Kant opened the door with confidence and let him approach the room.

"Bang!" The door was closed again, and Abel looked at Kant suspiciously and said, "His Royal Highness, we"

"We're not leaving." Kant walked to the tea seat and sat down, and said lightly.

"The whole inn is very dangerous. They wanted to kidnap us just now and don't know what to do next." Abel explained anxiously.

"Don't rush to a conclusion." Kant waved his hand and said: "Even if there is a trap, it may not necessarily be planned by the hotel people. Now, the group of people who want to plot against us, The plan fell through. They should be the ones to worry, not us."

"Then what do you mean, Your Highness?" Abel asked after thinking for a while.

"Contain the people in the hotel first and see what their plans will be next." Kant said quietly: "Also, send someone to monitor the knowledge and contact the goblin management staff. Let them lay an ambush around the hotel."

"Yes!" Abel nodded in agreement.

Abel turned and left the room immediately after receiving the order to contact Bandak and others.

The lobby that had been chaotic just now became silent again. The door of the hotel was closed by someone who did not know when. Not only the tea room, but also the back kitchen and other places could not see a single person.

Abel met Bandak and two teams of Human and Elf soldiers at the door of the restaurant.

The soldiers have been lined up, and everyone's face is not very good-looking.

"Abel, why are you alone? Where's Your Highness?" Bandak nervously stepped forward and asked when he saw Abel appear alone.

"Your Highness said, let's continue to stay in this hotel." Abel explained: "Also, His Highness believes that this operation was not organized by the people in the hotel."

"But the waiters at this inn were involved in this plan." Bandak wondered, "We wouldn't have been so easily deceived without them."

"Ah, in short, Your Highness, let us control the situation for the time being. Don't have any conflicts with the people in this hotel." Abel sighed and warned: "Now the enemy is in the dark, and we are in the light. Better to tell the soldiers to be careful."

"Okay," Bandak agreed. Then he turned around and preached to the other soldiers: "Let's go together and go to the lobby on the first floor to conduct a search. Always remember to pay attention to what's happening around you, stay close to your comrades in arms, and don't be left alone. Got it?"

"Yes!" the soldiers responded neatly.

"I'm going downstairs with the soldiers, so go and pick up His Highness first." Bandak said to Abel: "His Highness must be guarded by someone."

"Good. Be careful." Abel nodded.

After watching Abel leave, Bandak directs the soldiers down the stairs.

I don't know where the cashier, who usually stays beside the counter, has disappeared.

Bandak went to check the door of the hotel and found that the door plug was inserted from the inside.

Remembering what Abel said just now, Bandak suddenly felt that this action may be as His Royal Highness Kant said: the people in the inn were not involved in planning this plan.

"Let's start the search, everyone. Form a team of five, not only here, but the kitchen and the backyard. Let's go and have a look." Bandak ordered.

The soldiers dispersed immediately, searching the places with their squad leaders.

It wasn't long before a discovery was made.

"Commander Bandak!" cried a Croatian soldier standing at the counter.

"What's the matter?" Bandak, who was guarding the door, immediately walked over and asked.

The soldier standing inside "Master Accountant" pointed to the wine store under the counter and said hesitantly.

Bendak immediately bent down to check after hearing the word accountant: he found that the wine bottles were piled on the floor, and the accountant's body was stuffed into the narrow space.

"Is he still breathing?" Bandak looked up and asked the soldier.

"No more" said the soldier, his head bowed.

Bandak brought in three or four soldiers and moved the corpse in the accountant from the wine cellar. Place on the tea table.

It is estimated that the accountant was forcibly shoved under the counter after his death. I don't know what kind of strength that person has to do such an extraordinary thing. Seeing that Felit's bones have been deformed, Bandak couldn't help frowning tightly and said, "I'll guard this gentleman's body. You can quickly search other places. How much can be saved is as much as you can."

"Yes." The four or five soldiers around the tea table bowed their heads and replied.

After the soldiers dispersed, Bandak took off his cloak and covered the entire body of the accountant. After that, he stood motionless at the tea table, waiting for news from the others.

I don't know when, Abel and Kant have walked in front of him. Bandak shook his head and said, "Are you here?"

"Who is this?" Abel asked solemnly.

"It's the inn's clerk, Mr. Ferrit." Bandak said word for word.

Kant couldn't help frowning after hearing the name in Bandak's mouth.

"How did you find him?" Kant asked after being silent for a while.

"The soldiers found him under the counter where the wine was hidden. By the time they found him, he was dead," Bandak explained heavily.

Abel stepped forward and gently lifted a corner of his cloak. After taking a look, he quietly put down the cloak in his hand.

"Anything else found elsewhere?" Kant asked, looking at Bandak.

"Not yet." Bandak shook his head and said.

Chapter 859: Trapped in the cellar

Kant found a chair at the tea table and sat down, directing the other two to help the soldiers.

After Abel and Bandak left under orders, Kant's gaze rested on the corpse lying across the tea table.

Sorrow comes out of Kant's eyes.

He didn't have a good evaluation of the accountant before, and he usually followed his own rules and kept a distance from the accountant. Now it seems that such an idea is indeed condescending.

When people are still alive, being hated by others and being liked by others are fireworks in life. Because I belong to a different person than you, I will hate you, like you, or ignore you. Those strong emotions energize life.

Human interaction is like the process of exchanging tags with each other. Kant has no regrets for his actions, and with his sophistication, such a sudden accident would not make him overturn his own logic.

He just stood from the perspective of a resident of the hotel, and had some sad associations with the corpse in front of him. And it shows the emotions that people should have when they are born.

After waiting for about half an hour, Bandak and Abel turned back to Kant. Hui reported: "Your Highness, the people in the hotel are locked in the cellar in the backyard. Most of them are unconscious."

"Take me there." Kant stood up and responded.

"Yes." Bandak nodded to Kant after arranging his subordinates.

The three immediately rushed to the backyard of the hotel: the soldiers were gathering at the door of the cellar, carrying the unconscious hotel attendants into the courtyard one by one.

"How is the condition of the comatose?" Kant asked the soldier on the pack.

"I'm still breathing." The cellar was driven up and down by wooden ladders. The soldiers returned to the ground with waiters who were half a head taller than themselves. They were too tired. Facing Kant's question, the soldier could only answer out of breath.

"That's good." Abel nodded and said, "Take the people in the hotel to a ventilated place, and I'll help you later."

"Yes." The soldier nodded.

"This is terrible." Bandak said with a pessimistic expression on his face, "We haven't been able to confirm whether the group of villains in charge of planning escaped from the store. They returned the waiter to the store. The guests from the hotel are all gathered here. In case they take advantage of the chaos inside.”

Abel screamed inwardly, walked to the mouth of the cellar and shouted: "Everyone! Stop!"

The sudden outburst of shouts made everyone stunned and stopped their work.

Able paused and continued: "We only rescue hotel guests and waiters. All guests must show the keys of the rooms they are staying in, and all waiters must be approved by their companions."

"Yes!" the soldiers stood upright and agreed.

"Okay, let's go on with the rescue," Abel said.

After receiving the order, the soldiers began to question the identities of the waiters and guests one by one. And searches were carried out on those who fainted, and only those with keys on their bodies could be taken out of the cellar by the soldiers.

Abel walks back to Kant and Bandak's side.

Bandak glanced at him and said, "You're amazing, I just thought of this, you can immediately come up with a corresponding plan, and stand up in time to announce to the soldiers."

"Your 'bad' is the key, I didn't notice the problem until then," Abel responded with a smug compliment.

"The plan that Abel came up with is still good. Even if there are omissions, there is no need to worry about the safety of those innocent people." Kant said approvingly.

After adding the interrogation, the speed of saving people has obviously become slower. However, after the rescued people woke up, they quickly joined the rescue team. The flow of tasks has also become smoother.

“How many people’s identities cannot be verified now?” Kant personally walked to the entrance of the cellar and asked a team leader in charge.

"Your Highness, the number of people whose identities are unknown now is probably around eight." The team leader responded.

Kant and Bandak looked at each other and told the soldiers: "Let the soldiers be more careful, it's better to go in together, and take care of each other. It's easier to carry people."

"Yes, Your Highness." The soldier nodded.

Many homeless people who have escaped from the cellar stand by the entrance to the cellar. It was really inconvenient for Kant to squeeze into the crowd. After explaining everything, he immediately got out of it with the help of Bandak and Abel.

"You guys help me! I'm really not the bad guy you think!" A shout from the cellar made everyone busy in the courtyard suddenly silenced.

The three of Kant also locked their eyes on the mouth of the cellar. Looking forward to the next conversation.

"But you said you don't know anyone here, how can I let you out easily?" The soldier's voice also seemed a little anxious.

"I just delivered food. This is the first time I came here today, and I don't know anyone. Who do you want me to find to prove it to you?" the man who confronted the soldier responded.

"You said you were delivering food?" The soldier's tone softened.

Kant frowned, and immediately raised his legs to the side of the cellar, while Bandak and Abel walked ahead to clear the way.

Walking to the entrance of the cellar, Kant ordered coldly to the soldiers in the cellar: "You, all withdraw."

"Your Highness?" The soldiers who were interrogating raised their heads and looked up.

"Quick!" Bandak ordered.

"Yes." One by one the soldiers walked towards the stairs of the cellar entrance.

"Want to leave?! Why do you have to stay with us." The orc man who had just accepted the questioning had a gleam in his eyes, and he said bitterly.

Seven or eight homeless people squatting on the edge of the wall also responded to the man's words, picked up the farming tools in the cellar, and charged towards the soldiers by the stairs.

"They can't react, you two, go down and help them." Kant instructed the two beside him the moment he heard the man's voice.

Bandak and Abel looked at each other, nodded to each other, and immediately took the wooden ladder and sneaked into the cellar. Go to the front of the soldiers and protect them behind you.

A undead roared and rushed in front of Bandak, and he swung the undead battle axe to Bandak's neck.

Abel was entangled with another Assassin at this time, but he was also attracted by the tomahawk, so he shouted: "Bandak! Be careful!"

After all, Bandak's body is completely useless at this time.

Chapter 860: The end of the battle

Facing the battle axe slashed in front of him, Bandak took a deep breath and calmly observed the direction of the axe blade.

As the axe was about to cut across his throat, the Marquis of Bandak took a step back. And jumped in place, and made a horizontal kick to the undead.

Undead closed his eyes tightly, ready to take the blow.

But Bandak held back his strength and returned to his place. The soldiers behind him swarmed up and restrained the undead with ropes.

After knocking the Assassin to the ground with his spell, Abel immediately handed over his opponent to the rest of the soldiers. And he rushed towards Bandak's side.

"Are you all right?" Abel asked with concern.

"It's fine." Bandak shook his head as usual, and said, "Although the strength is not as good as before, but the body is used to the state of battle, so there is nothing to be afraid of."

"It's fine if you don't get hurt." Abel breathed a sigh of relief and blamed himself: "I almost forgot that you were still ill, thinking that you should be fine. Until the undead rushed towards you. , I just thought of that."

"Most of the undead's skills are heavy, I can handle it." Bandak shook his head and said, "You don't have to worry."

"I won't let you shoot next time." Abel said firmly, still uneasy.

When the conversation ended, the situation in the field gradually calmed down.

The soldiers took the captive out of the cellar to Kant for questioning.

The man who had just launched the attack was escorted to Kant, his face full of unwillingness.

Kant raised his hand for the orc man to look at him, and asked, "Who sent you here? How did you sneak in?"

"No one instructed us, we wanted to rest in this hotel by ourselves." The man replied with a hint of playfulness in his eyes. Kant couldn't help frowning.

"Rest? Didn't you just say you were here to deliver food?" Kant stared at the man and asked.

"So what, I'm the one delivering the food, so I can't drink tea in this hotel and rest for a while?" The man said stubbornly: "How can you say I'm not innocent?"

"How do you say it? Let the other waiters in this game listen. Ask any of them if there is a rule for outsiders to deliver food in this hotel." Kant snorted coldly: "Your Lies are full of holes. What do you want me to say?"

"I," the orc man was speechless by Kant's words, and immediately fell silent.

"The people at the inspection station are almost outside the door. I think maybe they are more suitable to interrogate you people." Kant shook his head and said, "Have you ever been to the inspection station before? Judging from your actions , I guess they have been in. After all, I also know that it is not easy to work as a 'clean' killer like you. But don't worry, I will give you a good rest this time."

"Do you want to use your network on the island to tie up a few of our brothers? Outsiders, I advise you not to worry about it. Most of the homeless people on this island have two faces. Don't believe your so-called friends." The orc man said coldly.

"This is not something you have to worry about." Kant said with a smile: "All soldiers, **** these people to the lobby. Wait for the adults from the inspection station to come and collect them."

"Yes!" The soldiers had long been dissatisfied with the orc man who was full of arrogance and arrogance. After Kant's order, he swarmed up and shoved the man a few times.

When the orc man arrived in the lobby, his face was covered in bruises.

The crowd sat silently for a while while they waited, until there was a "dong dong" knock at the door.

"Go and open the door." Kant ordered to a soldier beside him.

The soldier immediately walked to the door of the hotel and removed the door. Invite the army of goblins to come in.

A familiar goblin soldier stepped forward and greeted: "Your Majesty Kant, I'm sorry, we are late to write. Are you all right?"

"It's okay, did you encounter any trouble on the way here?" Kant glanced at the clock on the wall and asked.

"It's nothing, it's just delayed for a while by the temporary assignment." The soldier responded apologetically: "It doesn't matter."

"We have already subdued the vagabonds who broke into the hotel. Please take them back to the supervision station for trial." Kant turned back to the topic and said.

"Anyone in the store injured?" the goblin soldier confirmed.

"Most of the people locked in the cellar are of no importance. It is estimated that they will wake up soon. Our staff is treating them." Conde paused and continued: "The one who was killed was this one. The accountant in the hotel, I hope you can properly resolve this matter and give an account to the innocent sacrifice."

"We must do our best." The goblin raised his head and glanced at Chen Heng's corpse on the tea table, nodded in agreement.

The unidentified vagabond is handed over to the goblin soldiers, and Kant personally sees the goblin army out the door.

Firit's body was also carried away by the goblin soldiers, leaving only Bandak's cloak on the tea table.

While watching the goblin soldiers leave, Abel asked Kant: "His Royal Highness, the owner of the inn probably doesn't know about this, and Felit's body was transported like this"

"Don't worry, the owner of the inn is a rational person. You should know why Felit's body is in the hands of the people at the inspection station~IndoMTL.com~ Kant took a deep breath, waved his hand, and said.

"Can I still stay in this hotel?" Bandak asked the question in his heart.

"No way, this group of people is targeting us. Wherever we go, they'll follow on their own. Let's just stay here," Kant responded.

"If this incident is spread on the street by the residents, the business of this hotel will not be optimistic." Abel said worriedly: "So it is better for us to continue to live here. The boss is driving him to a dead end."

The three stood at the door of the hotel for a long time, and after a while, they walked back to the lobby.

The people in the hotel are almost back to health, but after learning of the accountant's death, everyone is enveloped in an atmosphere of sadness.

Kant arranged for the soldiers to stitch all the tea tables together and said to everyone: "Everyone, sit down, let's have a good chat, I still have a lot of things to confirm with you."

After hearing this, the waiters and chefs in the store accommodatingly found a seat as Kant said and sat down.
