Chapter 156: Who Surrenders to Whom
Eric seemed to be thinking about something, but just glanced at him with a blank face, and then turned to leave. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Returning to the edge of the Demon Forest and meeting with the paladins waiting there, the others asked what was going on outside, but Eric didn't answer any of these questions. All the way before meeting Herbert, he had been carefully recalling the scene of the people he had just met, from the big picture to every detail, as if there was nothing wrong.
The only things that disturbed him were two questions that were difficult to prove: how they managed to escape from the clutches of the Night Race, and how they happened to run into two paladins in the middle of nowhere. He didn't ask either question, because he knew that if the other person really wanted to lie, he had no way to tell the truth.
In order to give Master Herbert a better impression of himself, when retelling him what had just happened to him, Eric deliberately raised these two questions of his own.
As soon as he spoke, Herbert immediately agreed: "Very well, in fact, I was thinking about the same question just now. Escaping from the Night Race is a possibility, as they are all Templar masters, well-trained and team-minded. But when it comes to saving the lives of two of our paladins in the Gobi, it's a thing worth pondering. But anyway, since they're here, we can't hide here. Let's tidy up, let's go back. ”
Everyone grabbed their things and gathered around Herbert and walked towards the outside of the Demon Forest. Pity Eric and the paladins who escorted him out of the Demon Forest, these guys had walked more than forty miles in one night, and now they had to go back the same way, and they were miserable, so they could only add the power of holy light to their legs, which was a little easier.
The Warcraft Forest is full of demonic beasts, so the group doesn't pay much attention to the black fog that appears everywhere from time to time. At this time, there were several strange-looking dragonflies on their heads, with black mist on their wings, and they followed them not far away, but they did not attract too much attention.
More than twenty kilometers away, in an underground abyss abandoned by the Night Race, Piger the vicious dog and Anne the fallen angel were sitting next to a small pool of magma. The underground caverns are very warm, and the vicious dog's fur is very delicate for winter, but Anne's long dress is just right.
At this time, the delicate little hands of the fallen angel sister were grasping two finger-thick wooden sticks, and at the front of the wooden stick was a rabbit that had been skinned. The temperature above the magma pool is very high, and the effect of roasting rabbit meat is surprisingly good. Without adding any seasonings, wisps of aroma wafted out.
"Teng!"
Oil droplets from the rabbit's meat fall into the magma pool, causing a small flame to rise. Anne hurriedly pulled her hand back from it, put it in front of her eyes and looked at the roasted golden rabbit meat carefully: "It seems to be ready to eat." ”
Pierger didn't pay attention to what Annie was saying. At this time, he was crouching to the side, carefully paying attention to what was passing through in his mind in real time. Everything Herbert and the other paladins said was revealed to Piger through the dragonfly puppet.
Just now, when he heard that these guys were suspicious of the identities of Gad and the others, Pije felt a little nervous in his heart. Fortunately, in the end, it was abandoned because there was no good reason for suspicion. In Piger's eyes, the use value of Gade and the others is very large, and once there is any accident, it is best to let them withdraw as soon as possible.
Just when Piger was a little more relaxed, his sensitive nose was suddenly awakened by the aroma of rabbit meat. I don't know when a hand reached out next to him, holding a small piece of rabbit meat and dangling it in front of his mouth. The vicious dog just leaned forward and put the rabbit meat in its mouth.
I don't know if it's because I'm too hungry, although I don't put any condiments, but in the opinion of Pijie, who has eaten a lot of delicacies from the mountains and seas, it is really a rare delicacy, and it is hard to imagine that this is actually made by Anne, a veteran "dark cuisine expert".
The vicious dog ate the rabbit meat in his mouth three times and divided it by two, and even the bones were chewed and crushed, and then turned his head to look at Anne on the side, but saw that Xiao Nizi was cleaning up the bones on the ground.
"Where's the rabbit?"
Anne turned to look at him, "I've eaten it all." ”
It turned out that in the few minutes when the vicious dog was busy gathering information from the dragonfly puppet, the Fallen Angel Sister had eaten the whole rabbit without saying a word, and only when the last piece of meat was left, she was very embarrassed to stuff it into Piger's mouth.
The vicious dog turned his head without saying a word, and took the corpse of the white wolf that he had captured before from the side: "Then continue to roast this." ”
……
The number of Herbert's group was relatively large, and the speed would naturally slow down. It wasn't until the sky was clear that they returned to the town. At this time, some people were already preparing to go to work, and Herbert, dressed in black robes, walked out of the Demon Domain Forest, attracting a lot of attention along the way.
In front of the small chapel, today is also a little more lively than before. Priest Andrei, along with all the saints in the sanctuary, including the two paladins, tall and short, were busy there, apparently preparing food. Next to them, many of the people who looked like chefs were even busier.
Before this, Herbert's food had become a headache, and now there were more than fifty mouths, which made eating a big problem. There are only three small restaurants in the town, and it is impossible to serve so much food at once. So before dawn, the pastor gathered the cooks of these restaurants together so that breakfast could be served in time.
Seeing Herbert and his party, Pastor Andre immediately put down what he was holding and stepped forward to briefly explain what happened yesterday. Herbert let the others rest, leaving only the two paladins who were close to him. He then said to Andrew, "Call those two paladins here. ”
When he heard that Herbert wanted to see them, the tall paladin was immediately overjoyed, and called the short man and hurried over.
"You two, can you be sure that those people escaped from the Inquisition of Light?" Herbert asked with a serious face, posing as a bishop.
The short man didn't speak, but his companion was sure: "I have seen a few of those people in the Holy Light Inquisition, and some of them have even been escorted in by me personally, so there will be no problem." ”
Herbert was silent for a moment, and then asked a question: "What conditions do they intend to submit to us and gain benefits?" Or do you want us to submit to them? (To be continued.) )
