Lorena glared at Daven and nodded again in a salute to Avino: "The Major's words are not accurate. In fact, I'm here to investigate why pirates would attack a merchant ship with a native worm - uh, I want to know why you didn't help them? ”

Aveno pointed at Strovo and asked, "That's why this man and his companions kept harassing me and my crew?" ”

"Officer Strovo and his men only did what the Queen had ordered. Me too. ”

"I'm on a mission, sir. I'll answer that question later. ”

"No, Captain, no."

Avino looked at Davin. Davin shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he couldn't handle it. Averino looked at Lorena aggressively: "Okay. So when did this alleged attack take place? ”

"Five days ago. According to Major Darvan, you were trapped in fog that morning. ”

"Yes, sir."

"Of course, did you see the other ships?"

"It seems to have seen - it seems that a ship has appeared at sea, but I am not sure. I can conclude, however, that our ship was at one point very close to that ship - and they also sounded the fog horn. ”

Lorena nodded. This confirms the claim of protozoans.

"But I'm not sure. The fog was so thick that I couldn't even see the nose on my own face. Colonel, I have never seen such a fog in my more than fifty years of seafaring career. Didros may have been walking on our deck at the time, but I didn't see it. I didn't go to help because I was afraid of a mutiny, that's true. And we don't have to worry about the death or life of those protozoa. ”

Lorena stared at the captain for a long time and sighed, "Very well, captain, thank you for your cooperation. You're good to go. ”

"What a waste of time." Avino muttered under his breath and left.

After the captain left, Strovo said: "That's what most of the crew said. Sir. ”

"Of course," Daven said, "because that's what it is." Just think about it on your toes and you can understand. ”

Hearing the Major's words, Lorena felt dizzy. "Tell me, Major," she asked, "why didn't you say at first that Captain Avino had encountered another ship - and that ship had a fog horn?" ”

"I thought it didn't matter."

Lorena decided to change the letter and ask the queen to transfer Daven to the manure tank. "Major, your duty is not to estimate whether it is insignificant. Your duty - and your duty - is to obey the orders of your superiors! ”

Davin let out a long sigh of relief, "Look, Colonel - you're here to find out if Captain Avino has been negligent in his duties. Now the truth is out. He didn't. So what happened to the protozoan cargo? ”

"Actually, not much - they fought off the pirates alone."

Daven stood up again. He looked at Lorena like a madman: "So—with all due respect. Sir, what's the point of this investigation? It looks like those greenskins don't need our help - why are they trying us as prisoners? As I said, we are not at fault. ”

Lorena shook her head, completely disagreeing.

Bylock never imagined that the best time of his life would be the days of fishing.

Literally, "fishing" shouldn't be a way of life chosen by protozoans. He has nothing to do with war, nothing to honor, nothing to fight against, and no opportunity for people to prove their courage. Without weapons, you won't see blood.

But it doesn't matter what you do. Bylock old fishing. Just because he's free.

As a young man, he listened to the promises of the evil Worm King and the Council of Worm Gods, thinking that he would have a new world where the sky was blue. The protozoans are tightly united and will never be defeated. Bylock and his clan followed the guidance of the evil Worm King, and they had no idea that he and his Bug God Council were sent by Didros and the Demon Worm, let alone that they would pay for their souls when they came to this world.

It took ten years. The protozoa was defeated. They were slaved to demonic insects, even though they had regarded them as their benefactors; They have also become slaves of the humanoids, and the number of battles they have fought with them has made the demon insects look at them with obscurity.

The prohibition of the demon insect body made Bylock no longer remember what his hometown looked like. He also didn't want to remember the days when he was enslaved by humanoids. He only remembers during that time. He worked non-stop every day, and his back was about to break, but all this did not destroy his will. Demon bugs can't do it, and neither can humanoid bugs.

Later, Chen Feng came.

Everything has changed. The great Chen Feng escaped from under the overseer and used the techniques he learned from the humanoids to deal with the humanoids. His appearance brought the protozoa back to the glory days of the past.

On the day Chen Feng and his growing army rescued Bylock, he made a vow that unless one of them died, he would remain in power with the young protozot leader for the rest of his life.

So far, this premise has not been true. While both humanoids and demonic insects wanted to kill one of them, none of them were able to do so. But an inconspicuous creep from the Demon Bug Legion almost did it. He blinded Bylock's right eye, and in exchange for Bylock's entire head was cut off.

After the end of the war, or after the protozoa settled down in Bloodnest Mountain, Bylock applied to quit the army. But he promised that he would be the first to return to the ranks as soon as the trumpets of war sounded again, although his right eye was no longer visible, and now he wanted nothing more than to enjoy the freedom he had so won so hard.

Chen Feng agreed to his request. He sent everyone who wanted to go home home.

Bylock is not practical to fish. The arable land in Bloodnest Mountain is some of the best in the world. Only humanoids in the swamps had to abandon farming and fishing. Because they want to exchange the surplus fish for the excess food of the protozoa.

But Bylock hoped that the humanoids would not be able to catch a single fish. If possible, he wished he didn't have to do anything for the humanoids. True, he had to fight with the humanoids, but it was a last resort. Humanoids are a bunch of monsters, and Bylock doesn't want to do anything for these uneducated monsters.

It's not hard to imagine how surprised he was when the protozoa, which had only one eye left, was fishing on the Dead Eye Coast as usual, when he suddenly saw six humanoids.

The place where Bylock usually fishes is covered with deep weeds. Although he had lost his right eye, he could tell from the beginning that there was no sign of anyone walking other than the six footprints he had made when he walked through the grass - especially the humanoid ones. And he didn't see a ship passing by, and he couldn't even see the shadow of a ship from here.

But it doesn't matter where these people came, what matters is that they came. Bylock immediately fished the rod and untied the Meteor Hammer tied to his back—a gift from Chief Chen Feng when he rescued him. So wherever he went, he took it with him.

If these uninvited guests were Bylock's kind, he would have questioned them now, but they were humanoids - and probably spies - so he would never do so. You can't startle the snake. If only they were a bunch of fools who accidentally crossed the border. According to Bylock's judgment, this is very unlikely.

They are most likely intruders. If that was the case, he would never let them leave alive.

Bylock had learned the language of humanoids when he was imprisoned by humanoids, so now he could understand the words of these men—at least the parts he could understand. He crouched quietly in the tall grass, eavesdropping on the men.

That doesn't sound like a good situation. "Kill it." There is one person who said. "Chen Feng." The other continued. Others say "protozoa" - a term often used by humanoids to insult protozoans.

He heard a complete sentence: "We are going to kill them all and occupy the entire continent." ”

Someone asked a question. Bylock heard only once - "giant worm". As a result, one of the people who spoke earlier said, "Don't worry, we're going to kill them all." ”

Bylock tore through the grass so he could see the six men clearly. They didn't look special, for Bylock, humanoids all looked the same. (To be continued......) u
