Chapter XXII: Garnett and Grannell

The lizardmen are a species of lizardfolk that appear relatively short due to their slightly forward rickets, and are generally about 150 centimeters tall when they stand upright, making it easy to move quickly through swamp shrubs, as well as moving in and out of the natural web of foliage and foliage of the slack. But the lizardman in front of him was about the same height as Pennis, and Galantis had to tilt his head to meet the other's eyes if he stood with him.

"Hiss. Pannis, too, looked serious and let out this cry at the tall lizardman who had just appeared, "Hiss. ”

"Hiss?" The tall lizardman looked confused with a look of confusion on his rugged face, and asked Pannis, puzzled, "Hiss, hiss?"

"Hiss. Pannis's expression became more serious, and his tone became heavier: "Hiss." ”

"Huh?" the lizardman looked at Galantis with a pleading gaze, as if asking something. Galantis flicked his tail and said in the lingua franca, "I don't understand what he's saying, just ask him." ”

"Hiss, you can't understand me?" Pannis said in surprise: "What a coincidence, I can't understand you either, now we're fair, anyway, no one can understand each other's words, right." ”

"Hiss, I forgot you don't understand our language. The tall lizardman was obviously helpless at Pannis's exaggerated performance, and said in a common language with an accent: "Humans, why did you come to our hunting ground, hiss, we are hunting on a large scale, hiss, if you break in, even if Gallantis follows and will not miss the trap, it will easily affect our normal hunting, hiss, while the hunt has not officially started, you better leave quickly, hiss, Galantis will lead you through the hunting ground, and it will be too late to reach the appointed time." ”

"Shh You're lying. Galantis mercilessly accused to his face: "How come I don't know which tribe's normal hunting will make all the fighting power of the tribe go out? You're the only one in your tribe, hiss, but this time you invited Grandpa Grannell out, and you actually said it was just a normal hunt, hiss. Do you think I'm stupid?"

"Hiss, this is our own business for the Swamp Tribe. Garnett the lizardman raised his voice and said loudly in dissatisfaction, "What does it have to do with your Scales Tribe?

"That's right, huh, aren't you satisfied?" Galantis's vertical eyes were round, already round like human eyes, his tail was straight, his back was arched, and his mouth hissed and growled menacingly. He said in an unkind tone: "You guy, hiss, have you forgotten the previous lessons after not educating you for a long time?" ”

The male lizardman known as Garnett seemed to want to struggle for a little longer, but was soon defeated by the threat of Galantis, and the tragic memories of being oppressed and bullied as a child came flooding back to his heart, and he couldn't help but go backwards a few times, and said in the future: "Hiss. Don't be like that, hiss, calm down, the people are watching me. Hiss, hiss, leave me some of the majesty of the captain, hiss, don't come here, hiss, I said you don't come. What do you want to do, hiss, Grandpa Grannell, you take care of her, this guy is going crazy again, oops, Sister Galantis I was wrong, hiss, don't fight, don't fight. ”

The upper world at the top of the canopy was peaceful, except, of course, the ongoing bloodshed. However, the girls could clearly hear a muffled laugh coming from the tree net beneath their feet. It seemed that the hunters of the Swamp tribe had become accustomed to the scene before them, and no one had come to their rescue for their poor hunting captain. It wasn't until a few minutes later that an old lizardman covered in camouflage colors, but still visible with pale scales under the camouflage, came out of the tree net, although the old lizard man should be very old, but his movements were still vigorous, and he jumped out of the tree net flexibly, stood firmly on the trunk, spit out his forked tongue, and said in an old voice: " Okay, okay, hiss, little Galantis, don't bully Garnett yet, hiss, you shouldn't leave right away when you come back this time, it's still a long time to bully him, hiss, now that time is pressing, you better take your friends through the hunting ground first, and then drag it down Our hunt is about to begin. ”

"Hey, Grandpa Grannell. Facing the lizardman elders who were also of the legendary rank, Galantis instantly reverted to a good boy who knew how to be polite, and said obediently: "I'm really happy to see that your movements are still so vigorous, hiss." Hiss, but can't you really tell me what you're preparing? Hiss, if I don't know the answer, I won't be able to sleep. Hiss, just tell me, I promise not to pass it on to you, hehe. ”

"Actually, we're really going on a daily hunt, hiss. Grannell hesitated for a moment, but then insisted, "It's just that something happened, so we need to be prepared." Hiss, don't ask what is the matter, this is a problem that happened in the swamp hunting grounds, and it is up to us swamp tribes to solve it ourselves, hiss, if we really can't solve it, we will ask for help like Lord Alcmene, hiss, but if you don't try to solve it yourself and ask for help, you are no longer worthy of calling yourself a warrior of the swamp, hiss, little Galantis, you can't bear to watch your grandpa Granel be ashamed of his ancestors when he is old. ”

"This ......" Galantis hesitated, although Grannell's attitude was kind, but the content of what he said was very resolute, and if she asked further, it seemed that she was really a little ignorant. However, Galantis didn't just ask questions because of curiosity, as the daughter of the high priest, although she is not hereditary, she doesn't need to learn these knowledge related to current affairs, and her own character is relatively naΓ―ve, but she has been with her mother since she was a child, and she has seen a lot of things, and her sense of some questions is quite keen. Therefore, it can be seen from this unreasonable behavior of the Swamp Skull Tribe that some special situation must have happened, and if she does not pay attention to it, maybe the Swamp Skull Tribe will lose a large number of combat members, and may even affect other surrounding tribes. But the lizardman lady was still young after all, and the old lizardman blocked the room for questioning with a few words, so she could only look at Pannis helplessly with a pleading gaze, asking for help from this human, who was a large part of her memories with her mother.

"Ahem, Grannell, long time no see. Galantis's eyes were staring at him as if he had gone back to the swamp days of a hundred years ago, when Galantis was still a small juvenile, only sixty or seventy centimeters tall, and at that time, this little green thing often stared at him with such a pleading look, sometimes for the fruit of a tree, sometimes for a small toy that had just been woven from a reed by Pannis. But no matter what it was for, this kind of innocence with a pleading look made Pannis unable to resist, just like now, staring at Pannis's heart soft, sighed with a wry smile, and said: "I didn't expect that more than a hundred years later, your body is still so strong." ”

"Huh?" The old lizardman didn't expect a human to greet him, he hadn't been out of the swamp for almost a hundred years, let alone seen a human, and it was unlikely that anyone among the humans would still know him, so he didn't care about this combination of one man and five women before, knowing that after Pannisy spoke, Granel looked back at the human male, stunned for a minute, and suddenly said: "It's you? impossible, hiss, never, hiss, hiss, hiss, after so many years, how can you still be alive, and it hasn't changed at all?" Hiss, and how is she alive, no, it's not her, is it the daughter of you and the knight? Hiss, why don't you look much older than your daughter? When did you humans become so weird?"

"Ahem, ahem, let me introduce you, these are several ladies of Nelly's adventure group, the object of your very rude description is the leader Catherine, who is definitely not my daughter, and is also a model of a knight, and these are Lina, Freya, Vivien, and Eva, all of whom are legendary-level powerhouses. Pannis introduced to both sides: "As for this, he is the strongest person in the Swamp Skull Tribe, and the lizard Grannell, who stepped into the legendary rank more than a hundred years ago, it seems that he is ready to attack the demigod rank recently, I hope he can succeed, after all, this is the last chance." You shouldn't know that the Swamp Skull Tribe and the Scales Tribe of Galantis are neighbors, and the relationship between the two tribes is very close, and even the education of the juveniles is carried out together. Ah, by the way, the other legendary lizardman is Garnett, who was educated with Galantis and was often bullied by Galantis. ”

"Hey, uncle, what are you talking about. Galantis said dissatisfiedly: "I never bully people, don't slander me, hiss, if my mother knows, she will scold me, hiss." ”

"If you make any more trouble, I'll tell Alcmene. Pannis glared at Galantis and made a threatening expression, making Galantis lower his head and not dare to speak, and then continued to say to Granel: "What you encountered this time is not so simple, are you really sure that you can solve it on your own?"

"Do you know what we encountered?" said Grannell in surprise, "Hey, how do you know?"

"I lied to you. Pannis shrugged his shoulders and said casually, "You see, now I already know that you must have encountered some strong enemy to be so cautious." ”

Grannell was so choked by Panis that he almost didn't speak, but he was helpless against the demigod of the previous generation in front of him, so he could only grit his teeth and say, "You didn't make people so angry before, hiss." ”

"But it's not the same time it used to be. Although Pannis's words were annoying, he eventually added, "And I can sense the energy that is wandering in the nearby position, and although the energy is constricting, I still can't be mistaken." (To be continued.) )
