Chapter 281: Psychological Shadow Area
When Monan woke up again, he was already in Lancaster.
After being told that Old Man Basil had been received by the City Lord and transferred to the guest room in the City Lord's Mansion, Mo Nan felt a little bitter in his mouth.
In every sense, his duty as a defender has been dereliction of duty.
In addition to him, the other members of the envoy corps' guards also looked rather bad.
In addition to Basil being forcibly asked to leave by the Lancaster City Lord while they were unconscious, he was more surprised by the result of the previous fight.
Although it's a little unbelievable, but the elite of his own kingdom army was actually wiped out by one person!
And in the end, no one died on his side, that is to say, in the previous battle, the other party has been merciful under his hands, and this is no longer water, but the sea!
"What happened to that guy in the end?"
Monan asked a member of the guard who had woken up earlier.
I don't know why, the other party is wearing a slightly small linen clothes, and the equipment is not on his body.
This made Mo Nan a little unhappy, after all, the creed of the elite of the Kingdom Army is to keep weapons and equipment with you.
"Who? Ambassador Basil is still ...... The fish-headed man? The guard who was asked was stunned for a moment, and couldn't react for a while.
"What a fish-headed man, he's just wearing a hood. I've heard that the savages of the Savages have a similar habit of putting a beast's hood on themselves to intimidate. Mo Nan pointed right: "And only the strong warriors of the tribe are qualified to wear that kind of hood." It's a status symbol! ”
As a martial artist who admires strength, if the previous 'sparring' was Mo Nan and they won, now he would not be so serious about a title.
But the Pink Flounder alone overthrew their team, showing a formidable strength, and they had to respect it, whether it was out of their proper duty as a warrior or for grooming their own defeats.
If such a strong person has to be called a fish-headed man, then what are these people who have failed miserably to the other party? Shrimp Man or Plankton Man?
"Would the average strong man choose a pink fish head as a symbol of his status?" The guard hesitated.
"Don't those strong people in the imperial capital also have some incomprehensible quirks, this is probably the worldview of the strong."
Mo Nan could only sigh like this, and then he remembered his original question: "So that ......"
At this point, he suddenly realized that he did not know the identity or name of the pink flounder that had come to greet the envoys, and therefore he did not know what to call it.
After being stuck for a long time, he had no choice but to give the other party a code name: "What happened to Your Excellency Fish Head in the end?" ”
"You might as well call it a fishhead......"
The guard rolled his eyes, but when it came to business, he became serious: "Captain, you are right, the city guards of Lancaster are indeed very bad, scattered and decadent, the guards look strict but in fact there are loopholes everywhere, I have just sneaked out and asked a little bit about the information." ”
"The result?" Monan asked hurriedly.
"Fish Head...... Your Excellency is dead. ”
"Dead ......" Mo Nan couldn't help but feel a little depressed when he heard this.
It's not that he has any special hobby for flounder, it's just that he simply feels that he has lost the opportunity to challenge the other party again and wash away the shame of the previous battle.
"After we were defeated by the Fishhead, the Fishhead returned to Lancaster in his chariot with Lord Basil. Then it seemed that a couple of anglerfish-headed people appeared, pointed at him and said, 'Why are you bloodless?' The guard then said in a colorful voice: "Your Excellency Fishhead was so shocked when he heard this, he pulled an arrow from his body, and shouted, 'Gan, this arrow actually has a blood groove,' and then he fell to the ground and died, and was taken away by the group of anglerfish......
"Wait a minute, you mean he still has our arrows on him all the way to Lancaster?" Mo Nan asked dumbfounded.
"That's right." The guard nodded, "Probably because I'm afraid that pulling out the arrow casually will cause heavy bleeding." ”
While it's true that you don't pull out the arrow immediately after being hit on the battlefield, it's best to plug the wound as soon as possible when the battle is over and there are conditions that can be bandaged.
After all, there is an unscientific power of magic in this world, as long as the wound is successfully blocked, go back and let the senior priest bless or wash it with holy water, the wound can be completely recovered before it becomes inflamed, and there will be no sequelae of ischemia.
And like this, a macho man with a pound of arrows on his body, all the way back to the city from the wild, Mo Nan is also the first time to see it.
If he is put in the kingdom army, with this ruthlessness, that guy can definitely become a non-commissioned officer and pick up meritorious deeds everywhere.
It's a pity that such a fierce man and strong man actually worked hard for a border city lord like Lancaster, and finally ended up with a dead end, which made Mo Nan only shake his head and sigh.
"Well, don't talk about that." Mo Nan calmed down for a moment, and then confirmed to his colleague: "Since you have already slipped out, then you must have used the letter kite to send our experience to the intelligence officer of the imperial capital, right?" ”
"That's exactly what I thought," the guard had a complicated expression, "After inquiring about His Excellency Fishhead, I planned to go to the Kite Pavilion by asking for directions...... As a result, I came across a group of dolphin-headed people on the way. ”
Monan: ???
"Is it so popular in Lancaster City to put a fish head on yourself?" Monan felt as if he was a little outdated, completely unaware of this strange trend.
"Captain, I've heard that scholars in the imperial capital have recently thought that dolphins are not fish......"
"Don't make a fuss, isn't that a fish or a hippopotamus?" Mo Nan, who didn't understand or care about the taxonomy, waved his hand: "Compared to this, what did those dolphin people do?" ”
At the mention of this, the guard involuntarily swallowed: "Those dolphin-headed people walked past me, and I don't know why they suddenly stared at the top of my head. After a while, he said, 'Look, there's a red name here!' ''Wait, I've been tasked and can't kill him!'' ''Is it an adventure mission?'' I've finally come across the Adventure Quest! Then he rushed up and punched and kicked me. ”
"Although I tried my best to resist, the strength of those people was unexpectedly great, and they shouted for equipment or something, and took off my clothes when they beat me......"
Speaking of this, the guard lowered his head and looked broken, looking like he had left a great psychological shadow: "I'd rather fight the ogre with a bayonet than be stripped naked on the street and dragged like a dead pig!" Captain, can you understand my feelings, Captain! ”
Mo Nan imagined the scene for a moment, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
No wonder everyone else is fully equipped, just you wearing ill-fitting sackcloth...... It's so hard for you......
