Chapter 34: A New Companion
Damn Leonard Greenlyre was trying to wipe the sludge and moss from the airship while scolding the boar, stupid donkey, shit, and the dog for getting the 'Gagarin' into the water and causing this young master to do all the dirty work...... Sooner or later, the bastard thing is going to roast him and chop it up and feed it to my dog......
Lyle's cursing tortured the ears of everyone present no less than any kind of torture, and after Lyle was rescued back to the palace annex that day, Sophia immediately cleared his body of poison and allowed him to regain his ability to speak;
Although the Gagarin was salvaged, it did not mean that the companions could set off immediately, Cassius did a cursory inspection of the airship, and the results were shocking: after more than a month of flooding and corrosion, the wooden shell of the spaceship was very badly damaged, and even the magic instruments used for navigation inside were destroyed beyond recognition, in Cassius's words: if it was a few days late, I am afraid it would be scrapped
So in the time that followed, everyone was busy repairing the airship
The only people who know how to repair are Cassius and Ischennova, so their task is the most important, and all the work revolves around the two of them, for the women who love cleanliness, Sophia and Dani are reluctant to do the dirty and smelly cleaning work, and they both volunteer to return to Hansar City to buy the necessary materials and alchemical items to repair the flying ship, and the remaining Joyka, Ray and Lyle are naturally responsible for cleaning the Gagarin
A large amount of sludge, moss, algae, and sand and gravel have accumulated in the shell and inside of the airship, which is not only huge in quantity, but also smells smelly, and it is a time-consuming and hard thing to clean up. But for Lyle, who has been pampered since childhood, it is better to ask him to do this kind of dirty work, it is better to take a magic battle to the battlefield and fight with the enemy, but everyone else is so active in their work, and they have no reason to be lazy, so they can only bite the bullet, so he will sprinkle the fire in his belly on the enemy who does not know where
In order to make the airship return to the blue sky, everyone worked very hard, and in the evening Cassius took out two tents from the space ring, and the friends camped by the lake, camped and camped by the lake, and the next morning began a new day of busy repair work, and finally the airship was completely repaired on the morning of the third day
Fat man now can it fly Joyka asked
Absolutely, Cassius said with satisfaction that it was the result of everyone's hard work
It stinks, Sophia, who approached the airship, couldn't help but cover her nose
I couldn't soak at the bottom of the lake for so long, the fishy smell of the lake water had already seeped deep into the planks, Cassius said, Lyle and I had used fire magic to dry all the water in it, or it would not smell even worse, but as long as it was exposed to the air, the fishy smell would completely dissipate in 5 or 6 days
What do you say, we are going to burrow into the stomach of this stinky thing and endure the stench for 5 or 6 days, Sophia frowned
Not only Sophia, but even Dani, who was standing a little farther away, couldn't help but cover her nose
Don't worry, Sister Sophia, I've been prepared, and Ishennova took out a glass bottle with some blue liquid, which I had prepared in advance, to get rid of the smell
Ha, now it's okay, Sister Ischennova, you think really thoughtfully, Sophia said happily
So what are you waiting for, it must feel great to get up and fly in the sky, and Dani, who has never been on a floatship before, is eager to try it
Don't you worry about any part if it doesn't be repaired and falls halfway through the flight, and Lyle came out with a sentence out of nowhere
The 12 eyes with resentment were all aimed at Lyle, and the red-haired youth immediately did not dare to speak
The crow's mouth thundered and scolded
Everyone burst into laughter, and Lyle scratched his hair in embarrassment
Suddenly, Joica's smile froze, he quickly turned to stare at the woods, took off the Mithril longbow behind his back and held an arrow in his hand, Joica's action attracted everyone's attention, and everyone realized that something unusual might happen, and immediately quieted down
What did you find Sophia asked
Someone was watching us, and Joyka slowly pulled the bowstring
Hearing Joyka say this, Ray grabbed the spear, Dani pulled out half of the sword, and Cassius silently recited the incantation, and everyone suddenly became nervous
There, Joyka let go of her bowstring, and her sharp arrow screeched into the woods, nailing it to the pole of a eucalyptus tree
Don't be so nervous, the bounty hunter took a man's voice from the direction of the eucalyptus tree, and everyone saw a man come out from behind the eucalyptus tree
The man wore a gray trench coat and an iron box on his back, and he held the belt of the iron box with one hand in the pocket of the trench coat and walked towards his companions step by step without concealment
Everyone except Dani remembered the man's appearance vividly, as they had only dealt with him a few days earlier
Standing, the second arrow shot by Joika was nailed to the ground less than half a meter in front of the man, who immediately stopped
Take one step further and the next time it will shoot you straight to the heart, Leonard Greenjoy threatened
Uncharacteristically, Leonard was not angry: Please relax, I have no ill will
Hmph, who believes Joika sneered
I'm here today to ......
Fuck off, Joika interrupted Leonard mercilessly, he took out the third arrow and put it on the bowstring, and in three clicks, immediately give me the fuck off, otherwise - you get the idea
Listen to me
1. Joika raised her longbow and aimed the cluster of arrows at Leonard's chest
Can Her Royal Highness the Princess listen to me, seeing that Joika can't negotiate, Leonard turned his gaze to Sophia behind
The second bowstring was taut
Wait a minute, Joyka, let's hear what he has to say, Sophia puts her on Joyka's shoulder, and motions for him not to move
It's okay, anyway, I'm sure this guy can't play any tricks in front of so many people, Joyka put down her longbow and raised her head to Leonard with a mocking face
His Highness Leonard knelt down on one knee at Sophia, and the gods knew that they had acted recklessly, not only to cause harm to Your Highness and your friends, but also to violate chivalry, so I beg the princess to give her a chance to atone for her sins
Sophia wondered
Yes, I, Leonard Green, would like to follow in the shoes of Her Highness the Princess, in order to do my duty as a knight
It's really thick-skinned, Joey Kadow, Sophia won't go back to that bullshit back to the Revengen camp with you, I'm going to die
I promised here a few days ago that I would not force the princess to do what you did not want to do, and I will naturally do what I say, and now I do not want to force the princess to go back, but I hope to wait by the princess's side and protect your safety, and let the princess send you without any complaints, which is also the promise I made to Miss Alice before leaving the Avenger camp
Knight Grimm, you really don't force me to reply to the Nationalist Camp Sophia took a step forward and asked
Sophia, don't believe this guy's rhetoric, seeing that Sophia seemed to be shaken, Joyka immediately turned sideways and stopped him, what oaths and promises he made were all bullshit, this must be a conspiracy, he tricked us into trust, and then found an opportunity to take you to the Avenger camp, think about what happened to Ischenova and Lyle, it is because of gullibility that this guy suffers so much, Sophia, don't be fooled
If you don't tell the truth about this man, you should chop him up and feed him to the dogs, and Lyle, who is deeply affected, yelled
We used to be hostile and you have this thought, I can understand it as a sign of sincerity, I came alone, without any of my men, and I have unloaded all my arms, Leonard has untied the iron box, and placed it on the ground next to it, and all my weapons and armor are in this box, and I am entrusted to the princess for safekeeping
You'd better get out of here, Sophia persuaded us that what you've done has made it hard for us to trust you anymore
Your Highness begs you to trust me one more time, Leonard Green pledges as a knight of the royal throne......
Joyka interrupted him rudely again: "What is so great about me, I am not a knight of kingship, you think I will make a man who wants to kill me a new companion."
Given the harm he did to Ishennova and her brother, his inclusion would only rub salt in Ischennova's wounds, Cassius said
Ischenova didn't speak, pinned her head to the side, and clung to Cassius's fat hand
Kill him, slaughter him, how dare you do this to me, young master Lyle, you beast, bastard, die, Lyle shouted angrily, he picked up a fist-sized stone from the ground, threw it at Leonard, Leonard did not dodge, and his forehead was directly hit by the stone, and he immediately bled profusely
I don't believe him either, and Ray said that I don't want to have to look behind my back in the future
Although Dany didn't know what the grudge between Leonard and her friends was, she could guess when she saw everyone's reaction, she looked up at Leonard and shouted: Hey, I said uncle, since there is no one here to welcome you, you should stop pestering you in vain, such a man is the most annoying
Leonard's face twitched a few times, and the words of the crowd stinged his self-esteem extremely, but he tried hard to suppress his emotions and silently endured everyone's insults
Stand up, Leonard, Sophia, and walk straight to Leonard
Hey, Sophia, beware of the trick, and Joika hurried to stop it
Don't worry, Sophia raised her hand lightly and smiled at her friends behind her, he won't hurt me
Sophia walked up to Leonard and held her palm to his forehead, and with a gentle flash of holy light, Leonard's forehead, which was stoned by Lyle, stopped bleeding, and the wound healed quickly
Your Highness...... Leonard looked at Sophia gratefully
There is no point in caring about what has already passed, Sophia reached out and helped Leonard up, the key is that now and later, I see sincerity in your eyes, so I am willing to gamble and believe in you again
Princess, what do you mean......
Yes, Sophia smiled and nodded.
