27 Chapter 27
In addition to a group of fifteen bird-like beastmen, Osvid also brought about thirty Ugin Iron Cavalry and a medical officer to fill such a place at once.
"Are we above ground or underground?" Nick glanced out the door and couldn't help but ask.
It's no wonder that he has this kind of question, anyone who turns around in this kind of place will be confused by the scene here-
Here and there are foliage and bright vegetation, some straight and tall, with canopy and pavilions; Some are clustered in various corners, and the dark leaves are dotted with small red fruits of bright color. Vines as thick as a baby's arm wind their way through the ground, climbing along the cavernous houses, hanging a few strands of twigs from the walls.
There are trees, fruits, houses, and lights hanging around, which can give people the illusion of being in a dense forest on the ground.
"It's not like the ground anymore, and when I was circling just now, my wings flapped to the top several times." Dan grabbed a few red fruits by the wall, wiped them randomly, and asked Kevin, "Can I eat this thing?" Looking at the food, will I die if I take a bite? β
Kevin waved his hand, "Not really. β
When Dan heard the word "no", he put the red fruit into his mouth and took a bite, chewing it "click", and said vaguely in his mouth: "Yo, it's quite crispy, a little sweet, and it tastes good." β
"I still have one but I haven't finished speaking...... Kevin said helplessly, "why are you talking so fast?" β
"But? But what? Dan paused, looked down at the red fruit that was less than a mouthful in his hand, and felt that there would be nothing good to say later.
Kevin let out an "oh" and said, "But after all, this is underground, there is no sunlight, only fertilizer, and this fertilizer is ......"
No matter how thrilling the tomb is, it is also a cemetery, and the plants around the cemetery bear fruit, what else can there be in the fertilizer that can be absorbed?
Dan has always been a little, and his face has been "brushed" green.
"Vomitβ" He hugged the pillar at the door and spit out the fruit in his mouth, and said to Osvid who was not far away with a weak face, "What about the Emperor?" Can the Emperor control your commanders? Why is he so good at talking? Gross-"
The strong man, who was more than two meters tall, was weakened by Kevin's thoughtful words, and he clutched his stomach and wanted to go into the cave to find a medical officer to slow down.
Osvid was instructing the Ugin Iron Rider to clean up the corpses of the tree spirits, when he heard this, he turned his head, glanced at Kevin, and snorted coldly, "My commander? His Excellency Fassbinder has been thinking about rebellion all day long, and he doesn't know how to write the word emperor, so I can control him. β
In front of so many people, Kevin still knew that the emperor couldn't fight, so he waved his hand very face-saving and said, "I can manage it, I won't say it." If you continue to eat, you're halfway in, and it's useless to vomit, so don't think about it so much. β
Dan: "......"
He didn't want to talk to the little white-faced commander anymore, so he turned around and was about to go into the cave, only to have a "bang" and his head hit the top of the door, making him grin in pain.
"Is this a dwarf country?!" He spat hard.
The kitchen cave that had previously been used to hold Kevin's house was now crowded with more people, and the medic was inside drugging all the wounded. Most of them, such as the elite team that came with Kevin, had mostly bruises on their bodies, and some were puddles of blood from the burrs of the canes. These wounds were nothing, and the medical officer handled them well. The more troublesome thing is the bump and collision injury on someone else's body.
Those that have been struck are first reddish, and then gradually harden and become sandy. For this, the medical officer has no choice.
So when Dan's head slammed on the top of the door, not only Kevin and Osvid outside the house looked at them, but even the medical officer in the room and the generals who were drying the medicine also looked over.
Almost all of them had a word in their eyes: "It's over, if you hit it so hard, you might lose your whole head." β
Who knew that Dan rubbed the red mark on his forehead, and then went into the cave as if nothing had happened, and shouted in a loud voice so that everyone outside could hear it clearly: "Medical officer, I want to vomit." β
Kevin turned his head and looked at Osvid for a moment, the two of them didn't say a word, one after the other, and the stride meteor followed the cave.
"What are you staring at me for? Strange and panicked...... "As soon as Dan entered the door, he was forcibly pulled to the ground by the medical officer, and was watched by a room of onlookers, not to mention, the emperor and the little white-faced commander actually followed, standing on either side of him, bending down to stare at his head.
His head was painted black and shiny with paint, and he couldn't see his original skin color at all, and naturally he couldn't tell if there was sand.
Kevin thought about it, and was about to touch it to see if the skin had hardened, but before he could touch Dan's brain, he was blocked by Osvid.
Osvid slapped his hand away, "tsk", and said, "What's the mess?" Do you know better than a medical officer? β
As he spoke, the medical officer had already touched Dan's head.
After a moment, the medical officer was a little surprised and said, "There really is no sandstone." β
Dan touched his head in confusion: "What kind of sand?" β
"Not at all?" Osvid asked.
The medical officer shook his head: "To be precise, it is not completely unchanged, I can feel that this piece of skin feels a little different from the rest of the face, a little hard, a little like a thin cocoon, but it is still far from the sandstone." β
"Dan, how much of your clan has been bitten by insects?" Kevin asked.
Dan nodded: "Many! The sea is gone! We are inherently prone to bugs, and almost everyone is chased and bitten every day. Otherwise, what am I doing like this, would it look extraordinarily beautiful? β
"Have you ever been in a situation where you hit a rock and it hardens like a stone?" The medical officer couldn't help but ask as well.
Dan thought for a moment, then slapped his thigh and said, "Oh! Saying this, I suddenly remembered one. It was an old man, who lived near me, and the last time he fetched water, he fell in the valley and rolled several times. When I came back, I said that I couldn't move, so I just lay down like this, and I passed by and took a look. β
"Has his skin become like this?" One of the officers pointed to the side of his arm.
Dan stared at the gray and yellow skin with the texture of the sand, reached out and pinched it again, and said, "Yes, it's so hard!" As for skin color...... We're all painted like this, and we can't see it. β
Everyone stared at his black face for a while, and silently turned their heads: blind.
Dan reached out and pressed his forehead again, and said, "So that's what you mean when you say sand, then I understand." It seems to be the only one in our clan who has that kind of situation, and we thought that he was old and crippled. However, there are quite a few cases like my forehead that harden a little, except for growing near the joints and pulling the skin a little bit when I move, it doesn't have much effect. β
Osveld frowned and said, "Then you told Xiao that your current leader is not convenient to come out because?" β
Dan said: "He was kissed the most by bugs!" My face was swollen, and my knees were swollen so much that I couldn't move well, so of course it was not convenient to go out. β
Osvid: "......"
"Your Majesty, can we ......," the medical officer said, looking at Dan with some hesitation.
The few brain cells of the giant beast man suddenly moved at this moment, and Dan suddenly said, "Do you want to see why we haven't been sanded like you?" β
The medical officer nodded again and again: "There are too many people in the sand-petrified area on our side, and the sand-petrified area will spread a little bit every day, if there is no progress for a long time, the consequences will be unimaginable." β
When Kevin heard this, he suddenly remembered the row of stone statues standing on the wall in the corner of the kitchen.
"Waitβ" he said to the people leaning against the statues, "Can you turn the statues behind you, I want to see their faces." β
His cold words made everyone in the room feel a little creepy.
The generals were stunned for a moment, then got up one after another, and turned the row of stone statues around and faced everyone.
It is located in the area of the tomb of Lord Fae, and it is well known that everywhere it is related to the gods, whether it is a temple or an altar altar, there are always various stone carvings everywhere. There are statues of gods, statues of people who worship on their bows, and statues of animals with symbolic meanings......
So when everyone first saw the row of stone statues stacked in the corner, they didn't think much about it at all, they all thought that those tree spirits had moved back from the tomb of Phae or the door, as for what they moved back for, then who knows?
But now, the yellowish light of the insect cyst reflected on the faces of the stone statues, and the already frozen expressions of those stone statues suddenly became a little more vibrant. Frightened, stunned, dazed...... I saw that everyone's hearts "chuckled".
Because it's so realistic......
It's so realistic that it doesn't look like it's carved out at all.
"I mentioned to Nick before that someone had already broken into this place before us, and you can see the swords scattered on the ground outside, which don't match the style of this place at all, they must have been unloaded from the captives. Some of it is from us, and some of it ......" Kevin paused at the right time, his gaze falling on the stone statues.
"You're saying these statues are the first captives they captured?" Osveld whispered.
Kevin nodded: "It's just that it's just because of the bumps and sand petrification, and every place spreads a little more, and eventually it becomes like this." β
Dan's big white eyes stared at the row of stone statues for a few seconds, and he was full of excitement. He straightened his face and said to Oswald, "Aren't you trying to find a way for us?" You arrange it, and I will pick someone to send you a letter back to the palace. β
Why is it not easy for the Behemoths to sand and petrify? Is it because they are so large that what works for the Ona people doesn't work well on them? Or is it because of bloodline or something?
If it's the former, then there's nothing you can do, after all, body shape isn't something that can be changed overnight. But if it's the latter, maybe you can try it by some means?
In any case, this is also a progress, and everyone's mood is suddenly better.
The kitchen cavern was a little crowded with the wounded, and Osvid and Kevin didn't stay long and got out of it, and by the way, they had the row of stone statues moved out as well, so that they could see where they came from and make some room for it.
Osveld touched the cowhide bag around his waist, and found that he didn't have any extra letterhead, so he turned to Kevin and said, "Write a letter to the medical hospital, and sayβ"
Halfway through his speech, he remembered Kevin's amazing painting skills, swallowed back the rest of the words, and directly raised his hand to pick up the bag on Kevin's waist.
Kevin was stunned for a moment, hugged his arms and said angrily, "...... Are you a little too self-conscious? β
Oswald took out a pen and paper, and didn't look for a place to pad the paper, so he wrote the content, and sneered without looking back as he wrote: "Do you need me to tell you about the imperial power?" According to the Code, everything on you is mine, including yourself, I can take it if I want, have an opinion? β
Kevin snorted, "Yes." β
Auswid: "Shut up. β
