"Chapter 90: Kuba Talks to Me"

"Mr. Lee, Legionnaire invites you to have lunch with him. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Hoyard smiled annoyantly and made a "please" gesture.

"Is this the last lunch?" I looked at him dissatisfied, and muttered in my heart, at this time, Kuba asked me for dinner, no matter how I thought about it, it was not a good thing.

''What?'' The last lunch? Ah, you're overthinking, the Legion Commander just wants to have a meal with you, "Let's talk for a while", I don't think you will refuse, right? '''Hoyard' asked politely if he denied my idea.

''Do I have the right to refuse?'' Even though it was risky to say that, I tried to ask a little more to understand the situation.

''You can certainly say no, if you really want to eat your last meal. He still had that smile, but there was something bad in his eyes.

''Commander Hoyard, as the vanguard commander of the legion, you have lost your identity like this. ''Avelia frowned and looked at Hoyard, obviously unhappy with what he had just said.

''Sorry, Your Highness. When Hoyard saw Avelia, he quickly stepped back and saluted: "I'm just reminding this gentleman." ‘’

I knew that Hoyard had seen Avria a long time ago, and I also knew that my sister Avria (two years older than me) would be of no use even if she stopped her, and as a captive, I had no right to refuse. However, I also found this as an opportunity, an opportunity that would be very helpful for our planning.

''Well, the Legionnaire invited me, of course I'm going to the appointment, will I go now?'' I'd like to change my clothes first, but this is a formal meeting. I put on a serious face and said.

''Let's go now, the cooks have already started preparing lunch, and the commander will be unhappy if he goes late.'' As for your clothes, I think it fits perfectly, please. Hoyard stretched out his hand and performed the invitation of a nobleman, very formal.

''Also, the two princesses, Mr. Mosansidi, have invited you to come and say that there is a new course to be arranged. ''Mosansidi's mouth is a famous scholar in the Subic Kingdom, a literature teacher of the princes and princesses, who robbed him during the Legion uprising, but has always respected him, and he continued to teach the two princesses, Hoyad moved him out, and Avelia and Mina had to go back.

''Trouble opens the way. Although his behavior made me angry, I still resisted my anger and walked over with a smile.

''Don't worry, it'll be fine.'' As I walked past Avelia, she whispered something to me and left.

''Please follow me.'' Hoyad nodded, opened the gate on the wall and led the way, and when I reached the door, I found that there were six mid-level fighters guarding the door, led by a high-ranking warrior, and it seemed that they were still very concerned about my defense.

This time I went back to talk to Kuba, although it was forced, but I also wished that they would take me out. Only after figuring out the situation in the vicinity and the location can our rescue operation proceed smoothly. In the past, even Avria could only reveal a little bit of information by using elemental flow as a marker, but this time she can go out and see it, this is a great opportunity!

As we walked out, I found that there were wooden buildings and tents with soldiers stationed nearby, and the streets were far away from the buildings, and blacksmiths with weapons were shuttling between the soldiers' houses. I looked far away, and saw many regimental flags fluttering, and some shouts of killing during training, and it seemed that Kuba had locked me up near his camp in the city. Of course, I didn't forget to look at the house where I was being held, it was nothing special compared to the others, except for the large number of guards and the tall walls.

We soon walked out of the area, and along the street there were many houses of the inhabitants and a large number of shops, and at a glance there were houses and houses, or thick trees, denser than the buildings of bikinis, and it seemed that the Legion had not worked in vain for ten years, and they had built a city somewhere in the forest, a real city.

The city was not very densely populated, and there was a peculiar phenomenon in which the soldiers, the populace, and those who resembled robbers and mercenaries lived in perfect harmony, and children often threw themselves into the arms of passing soldiers, and the women were not at all afraid of the soldiers. Almost every adult man carries a weapon, but they act like an army and do not mess around. I think Kuba built his military camp directly in this city, which is probably a large military camp managed by a militarized administration.

We didn't have to walk long to reach our destination, and unlike what I thought, the building where Kuba was located was not very grand and luxurious, maybe it put a little more thought into the design, but the difference between it and the other buildings was that it was twice as big and two stories higher. It's a good thing for me, though, that our rescue team can still find the apparently large building in the air, and find the heavily guarded, high-walled building near it.

''Here we are, Mr. Lee. ''Hoyard smiled and led the way, and opened the door for me. I glanced twice, and used my observation to confirm that there were a large number of elite troops in the vicinity, and there were several high-ranking soldiers.

The door opened, and it was a very ordinary hall, which looked not much different from a level 2 base camp. But the moment I entered, I felt the elemental fluctuations and energy fluctuations in that room, which I could feel even as a magic apprentice, and it was obvious that this energy was very strong, and I believe that this room was definitely not simple.

Walking through this door, I saw a round table, a small round table, where two servant-like men were arranging the tableware on the table and placing fruit and desserts. There were only two chairs at the table, one facing me and one already occupied, and the identity of that person was obvious.

At this time, Kuba was still the same as when he took me away, tall and mighty, but he didn't have the huge tortoise shield and armor. However, what did not match his figure was that the civilian clothes he was wearing now were very decent, and it was obvious that he was not only a servant, but he had also carefully sorted it out himself. And to my surprise, in front of that serious, murderous face was a book, a somewhat old hardcover thick book.

''You may be seated.'' The deep voice sounded, and he did not move, but the servant had pulled out the chair for me and made a gesture of please.

I was stunned for a moment, thought quickly, and then sat down in my chair without saying a word.

''Good. He put down the book, folded the page by a corner, and closed it. I glanced at it and saw the title of the book:

Biography of Sakturi the Great

"I've heard that you Orientals are good-looking and keep good manners, but you are much more worry-free than those Orientals in those stories, and in order to show your contribution to us, I have prepared some Kingdom specialties, I hope you like it." ‘’

There is nothing rude or hypocritical in Kuba's words, it is very ordinary, and it is very imposing.

"It doesn't matter, we heard it to you before we came here. I'm a prisoner now, and I don't care about those faces, so the corps commander might as well have something to say. ''Facing Kuba, I'm actually quite frightened in my heart. But at this time, I knew that I couldn't coax it, so I still mustered up the courage to question Kuba, acting as if it was fine.

''Rumors and stories I heard while walking on the road... Very interesting oriental proverb, you still have such courage as a captive, I admire. Kuba listened to the literal translation of the idiom, and his tense face relaxed.

''You're direct, I like direct, it's good. Koopa nodded, motioning for the waiter next to him to serve the first course, which was a small steak-like thing topped with sauce.

''I've heard that you like to talk about things at the dinner table, but that's not the case with us. As he spoke, he halved the meat with a knife and put half of it in his mouth, and the juice ran down the corners of his mouth as he chewed. He looked at me and motioned for me to eat.

After Xiao Ling was sure that this piece of meat would not be fatal to eat (at present, Xiao Ling can only tell whether the food will be fatal and disabled, and cannot carefully confirm the toxin), I also moved the fork, I cut a small piece and put it in my mouth, the gravy and sauce instantly filled my mouth, the taste and texture, very good.

Kuba swallowed the piece of meat, wiped his mouth, cut the other half, and said while staring at me:

''Thanks to you, we've collected a lot of holy water, enough to sustain an entire war. But it's not a good thing to go on like this, and I want you to leave us with the method of extracting the holy water. When the time comes, we can consider sending you back. ‘’

''No way. ''I didn't hesitate to understand it, and I said, while eating:

''To tell you the truth, we can refine holy water, but I don't even know the principle. And even if I knew, I wouldn't tell you. ‘’

With that, Kuba stopped chewing, looked at me, smiled slightly, and motioned for the waiters to bring the soup and side dishes.

''Indeed, you really won't give away such a useful thing.'' He stopped his knife and fork and stared at me, saying, "The healing effect is excellent, the recovery of magic is excellent, it is helpful for the cultivation of magic, and it can also help the peak warriors to advance. As he said this, he cut off a piece of meat with his knife, leaving a deep mark on the plate.

''Everybody wants to get it, no one wants to give up, I understand you.'' ‘’

''I can tell you that we have enough strength to defeat that cowardly alliance of free cities and establish a new branch of the kingdom, and whether you like it or not, she will belong to Her Royal Highness Princess Avelia. I hope you will think carefully about cooperation, and then you will have a wider territory and a higher status in the new power. He put the last piece of meat in his mouth and picked up the bowl of soup.

''To put it bluntly, it is to annex us, which I will not agree to!'' I'd rather choose the Alliance than you, at least they're easier to deal with. ''I didn't hide anything from Kuba, and although I was angry, I continued to eat.

''Indeed, annex you, join us, all the same. But you seem to be doing well here, and you don't even seem to have any idea of going back. Kuba looked at me, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.

''Come on, being locked in a room for more than 20 days without even taking a shower, is this what kind of life to envy?'' ''I finished the dish and tasted the soup.

Then you'll have to endure it a little longer, because the rest will be more uncomfortable than before.'' ''Kuba put down his knife and fork, and I put it down at this point.

''Mr. Li, there is not much time left for you, think about it.'' ‘’

Kuba made a send-off gesture, and I followed Hoyard out of here.

''It's not negotiated, it's too normal.'' ''Kuba leaned back in his chair and crossed his legs.

''Recently, the envoys of Tibetan Soldier City and Phoenix City have become more and more anxious, and their reconnaissance has become more and more frequent, it seems that this state of affairs will not last long, and there will be changes. Thinking of this, Kuba took a deep breath: "This time he will be able to stabilize when he goes back, and it will be more convenient for us to do it." ‘’

But he is still in our hands, and the two cities dare not act rashly, so they can only wait and see, which is also beneficial to us. ‘’

Kuba picked up the book and commanded the man next to him:

''Fortify your defenses, you must not let that kid have problems, now he knows more than before!'' ‘’
