Chapter 503: The Four Great Cavalry Commanders
The morning in the Endless Forest was very quiet, and many people's clothes were soaked by the morning dew, and the roads became muddy under the influence of the morning dew.
Pique didn't know why he was so admired by Barton Mondo, so he stooped down in front of a dark green tent.
Only the Second Apostle and the four Cavalry Commanders were eligible to live in the tents, which were considered to be the baggage supplies brought out of the Endless Wall. There were also wooden carts drawn by mules and pack oxen, on which food such as grain and bacon were pulled. There wasn't much food, it should be enough for them for a week.
The average cavalry had no tents to live in, let alone the die-hearted yodelmen.
Pique had been outside the tent for half an hour, and the four cavalry commanders were in the tent, and he had to wait for the other three commanders to leave before he could bring Barton Mondo's breakfast in.
The breakfast of the Jodelman commoners was rice porridge and chestnut cakes, the breakfast of the common cavalry was black bread and bacon, and the breakfast of the cavalry commanders was white bread, bacon, roasted potatoes and a serving of fruit wine.
Just as he was considering whether to heat the potatoes again, a call came from the tent:
"Peake, come in!"
The next moment, Pique brought in the breakfast that had been prepared.
There was a charcoal fire burning in the tent, like the temperature of autumn. The four cavalry commanders sat around a low table, seemingly discussing something.
"Forgive me, if I don't eat again, I'll starve to death. Barton Mondo motioned for the food to be placed on the table, and he said to the other three cavalry commanders, "You're welcome, if you don't eat, you can share the food with me." As he said this, he brought all the food in front of him.
It was not a wise move to grab food from the fat man, and the three cavalry commanders obviously knew that Barton Mondo was just polite and did not mean to give up the food.
A red-haired cavalry leader in a black velvet tunic with a fur collar studded with pine bark said:
"Barton Mondo, you are a dog of the Sword Legion, an abandoned dog, what do those cold-blooded guys have to be loyal to? From now on, you must obey the orders of the Second Apostle, only then can you get out of the Endless Forest alive!"
Barton Mondo put the white bread in his mouth, put the reddish-brown bacon in front of his nose and sniffed it, "I'm a dog, so what are you?" he stuffed the bacon between his fat lips, and then said vaguely, "Only a dog would want others to be called dogs, you can admit that you are dogs, but don't pull me." Dardanelle, if you dare to call me a dog again, I'll shove the sausage in your ass. ”
The red-haired cavalry leader was also not afraid when he heard this, and he said angrily:
"The cavalry commander of the Tomahawk Legion has sworn an oath to the Second Apostle, what are you pretending?" said Dardanelle, "If you dare to hide a bad thing from the Second Apostle, the end will be extremely miserable." ”
"I don't need a dog to worry about what happened to me," Barton Mondo peeled the potato, then looked at the blonde old man across the table, and said, "Old Noshi, you are sixty years old, I can forgive you for the wrong decisions you made before, from now on, you have to take a stand." ”
The cavalry commander known as Old Noshi came from the Tomahawk Legion, and a golden tomahawk medallion on his chest was made of high-purity gold.
Old Noshi heard Barton Mondo's words with a hesitant look on his face. He was the oldest of the four, but he didn't seem to have any opinions. "I don't know what to do, and we don't really have any secrets to speak of in front of the Second Apostle. ”
By now, Pique had learned the names of the three cavalry commanders - Barton Mondo, Dardanelle, Old Nohi, and the other silver-armored cavalry commander who had not spoken.
Soon, though, Pique heard the unfamiliar name, "Shaquille, don't be silent anymore," Dardanelle said to the extremely tall, dark-skinned silver-armored cavalry commander, "You must put pressure on Patton, the fat man!"
There were four cavalry commanders.
Barton Mondo and Old Noshi wore black armor with the Kingdom Legion emblem on their chests, and the other two wore silver armor and were red-haired Chia.
Dardanelle, Shaquille, and Old Noshi seem to be on the same side, and Barton Mondo, the fat man who is eating, is completely isolated. Listening to their conversation, Peake realized that Barton Mondo was ostensibly working for the Second Apostle, but in fact he was not of the same mind at all.
The two silver-armored cavalry commanders rebelled against the black-armored cavalry commander Old Noshi, and at this time they were shaking Barton Mondo's mind.
I only heard Shaquille, who was the most huge in stature, say in a muffled voice:
"Barton Mondo, the Second Apostle has only one request for you, and if you can't do it, there's no need to exist. "Barton Mondo is fat, but nothing compared to Shaquille, who is not only fat, but also extremely tall, and if he stands up, he can probably reach the top of the tent, and the stool under his butt is like a child's toy in front of him.
In the face of such Shaquille, Barton Mondo also corrected his tone, and he said in a deep voice:
"If the Second Apostle has any requirements, you can tell me and hear them. ”
Shaquille replied, "When the Second Apostle wants you to kill, you must not hesitate, this is his only request!"
"Old men and children, I don't want to kill, my soldiers don't have much interest in this kind of massacre, killing has always been the job of your silver-armored cavalry, everyone just do their job. ”
"No, your duty is to follow the orders of the Second Apostle!" Shaquille corrected.
Peake understood, and he tried to guess the relationship between them in his heart: Barton Mondo and Old Noshi were the cavalry commanders of the Endless Wall, and for some reason they joined the team of the Second Apostle, and naturally, the Endless Wall knew about it, otherwise they would not have let them out of the Great Wall. And after walking out of the Endless Wall, Barton Mondo seems to have his own plans, or rather, he has his own mission, ostensibly obeying the orders of the Second Apostle, but in fact he is in disobedience.
There is a contradiction between them, which is what Peake wants to see, and the greater the contradiction between them, the better it will be for the common people of Yodelman.
The four arguing commanders apparently ignored Pique, who was silently standing aside, only to hear Barton Mondo begin to speak again:
"Shaquille, if you must use the Second Apostle to crush me, then I must also mention my 1,000 loyal sword cavalry! They are from the Sword Legion, the most powerful group of men besides the Spear Legion! Well, you frightened old Noshi and made him obey you, which I have no objection to, and our Sword Legion Commander did say that the Second Apostle is a good friend of his old man, and it is no problem for me to help more, but help is help, and let me kill for you is beyond the scope of help!" When he said the last sentence, the food in his mouth was also eaten.
Peake cleaned up all the rubbish on the table, and he had no reason to stay any longer, so he bent down and walked out. The four people in it are all big people who can decide his life and death in an instant, and he must be cautious.
Shortly after Pique went out, the three cavalry commanders also walked out of the camp.
Soon, Pique, who was guarding the tent door, heard Barton Mondo's summons again.
Upon entering the tent, Pique observed a completely relaxed expression on Barton Mondo's face, as if the previous negotiations had had no effect on him. "You should have heard," Barton Mondo said to Peake, "and they want me to kill, alas. ”
Pique didn't know what to say, he was still thinking about who the Second Apostle would ask Barton Mondo to kill.
The next moment, Barton Mondo told him the answer directly:
"Second Apostle, that black-robed man told me to kill the old man and the child, well, you guessed it, it's your old man and child of Yodelman. ”
Peake was stunned and said in a trembling voice: "Yesterday, my grandfather ......"
“...... Yes, it was your grandfather's death last night, and I left his life. ”
Pique's heart was shocked, and he was almost separated from his dearest loved ones by death. "Why?" he said, puzzled, "Why would you want to help the Yodelmans?"
Barton Mondo snorted, "I'm not helping the Yodelmans, I'm helping you." ”
"My lord, I ...... Thank you very much, you have always taken good care of me from the very beginning, and today I know that you saved my grandfather's life...... "If it had been five years ago, Pique would have only said thank you, not the next words," so ...... If you have any instructions, I will definitely do my best to help you. ”
"Well," Barton Mondo nodded slowly, "if I said I wanted your friendship, you wouldn't believe me. ”
Picke silently.
Barton Mondo continued: "But that's what it is, that's what I think. ”
"Gain my friendship?" Peake looked questioning, "My lord, I don't understand. ”
Barton Mondo put away the playful look on his face and said seriously:
"If you don't believe me, there's no way, you just need me to help you, I will not only help you this time, I will help you many times, you not only have a grandfather but also a lovely son, I will try my best to save their lives. ”
"My lord, I still don't know why?"
"It's a hassle to explain, but I can probably tell you a ...... Well, in the future, there is a good chance that I will need your help, so I will help you without reservation for now. ”
Peake listened to Barton Mondo's serious tone, and a sense of security filled his heart. Obviously, Barton Mondo's expression at this time was completely different from when he talked to the other three cavalry commanders before, Pique didn't know why this fat commander would value and help him, Pique only knew that with his help, grandfather and Sandy were temporarily safe.
"Well, you can remember that I helped you, maybe soon, maybe in a few years, I will ask you for help, and now, you can go out. ”
Hearing this, Peake bowed down and walked out.
Barton Mondo was the only one left in the tent, but he still spoke into the air:
"Sir, do you think I'm doing the right thing?"
As soon as Barton Mondo's words fell, the air suddenly distorted and deformed, condensing into a white figure, dressed in a white robe, with a snow-white parrot standing on his shoulder.
"There is no right or wrong in this world," the old man in white said with a smile, "If I were you, I would stay away from the blue hat, after all, he is Chaos!"
"Chaos?was the Cult of Light popular in the past few years?" Barton Mondo wondered, "What exactly is Chaos?"
The old man in white groaned for a moment before replying:
"It's a power, a force that destroys the world, and if you get too close to chaos, you'll be swallowed by it......"
