Chapter 13: The Bounty Hunter (1)
It's been a few days since Yolande left the castle with about thirty dwarven heroes, and no one knows where Gu Shiyu went. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Yoland's plan is to start at Hook Bay and follow the route Gu Shiyu left all the way, maybe that will reveal something.
Scout Kailin, who was in charge of the reconnaissance, reported that there was a team of thirty savages directly in front of them, also heading in the direction of Hook Bay.
"Do you see clearly, are they all savages?"
Kailin said, "Yes, all of them are savages. They were also driving a few large carts, which looked a bit like migration. ā
Yolande nodded, "If I'm not mistaken, these wildlings want to go back to the Savage Land through the ancient portal in Hook Bay. ā
"Boss, shall we fight?" the dwarves were excited, they all brought all their belongings, and if they could fight them, they would definitely make a fortune.
Yolande glared and said, "You want to rob?!They are heroes, not ordinary warriors!And the number of people is about the same as ours, and if you fight hard, both sides will have great casualties." I don't want to kill you by robbing them of their equipment and belongings!"
Elago, who is Yoland's deputy, also said: "The two sides are evenly matched, although we are good at fighting evil battles and will not be afraid of them, but after all, there is no deep hatred, and there is no need to fight with them." ā
Yolande asked, "What do you think, Marchem?"
Malkem scratched his head and said, "Don't fight, I still want to go back to the country of the dwarves to reunite with my family." ā
"Then don't fight!" said Yoland: "They go theirs, and we go ours." Kailin, you're good at logistics, keep following the jungle and don't let them find out. If they come down in front of us and try to ambush us, come back and report it quickly. ā
The savages did not lie in ambush, but lined up on the road and waited for them.
"What do you want to do?" shouted the tallest and strongest savage at the head.
Yolande stepped forward and said, "Is this road your home? you can walk, why can't we go?"
"You've been sneakily following us for a long time! Your name is Yoland, I've heard that you don't have a good reputation, and many of the undead Hiss have been robbed of their equipment. If you want to steal our stuff too, then come openly!"
"Why are we fighting Heath, don't you know? They want to take Hook Bay, it's my friend's territory! If I don't help fight them, are you still human? By the way, what's your name? I don't know what to call you yet!"
"My name is Kenlo Haag, the war chief of the Haag family. If you want to know the official name, you can call me Lord Kenloe. ā
"Well, Kenlo, that's a good name!" In fact, Yolande didn't know what was good about this name at all, but he had been with Gu Shiyu for a long time and was infected with his oily and slippery habits. "Kenloe, then, since you don't want us to follow, let us go ahead, and you follow behind. ā
Is it better to let them go in front or follow behind? If you go in front, they may ambush and ambush them, and if you go behind, they may take the opportunity to sneak attack.
Kenloe thought for a moment and said, "Then you should continue to follow!, but you had better stay within our line of sight, not too far apart." I don't want to fall prey to your schemes, so if I want to fight, I'll do it clearly. ā
That's fine, if you want to fight, you don't have much chance of ambushing. Yolande nodded and said: "Then so be it, the journey is very boring, with you by your side, talking and laughing, everyone will not be lonely." ā
Yolander waved his hand and let his people follow behind, walking side by side with Kenloe.
"Kenloe, you savages should be grateful to us. If it weren't for us, the ancient portal of Hook Bay wouldn't have opened, and if you wanted to go back, you'd have to wander the sea for many days in a nether ship, and maybe you'll run into storms and reefs, and that's the end of it. ā
"I hate boats, it will vomit all the overnight stuff in my stomach! I don't think you dwarves are very annoying, but you have done a good thing. ā
"Kenlo, will you come back to the Lost Lands when you go back?"
"Of course it will! That kid of the Giant Thunder has stolen the treasures of our Savage Land, and I haven't settled accounts with him yet! Next time I come, I will take all the wolf cavalry of the Savage Land, step the Giant Thunder into powder, and then pee on his ashes!"
"I hate that kid of Giant Thunder too! ā
Kenloe laughed and said, "I'd be happy to help you with this." I thought you dwarves were allies of humans!"
Yolander shook his head and said, "You're wrong, dwarves only form alliances with their friends, not their race. I wanted to hit Ju Lei when I saw his self-righteous appearance, but unfortunately I couldn't. ā
Kenloe sighed, "yes, that kid hides in Mrs. Grey's skirt almost every day, and finally comes out to surround the Black Woods, and when we were about to beat him up, we let him run away again!"
"When the war starts, who will you choose to ally with?"
"We are not allied with anyone, we only guard the land left to us by our ancestors. If anyone tries to take it away, we will fight with him. Even if we attack the Great Thunder, it is just to get back what belongs to us, and we will not go to war with the Lost Lands. Of course, if he does not agree, the conflict could expand at any time. ā
"You want a lion to give up his fangs, and a wolf to give up its paws. Hey, don't talk about the thunder, don't talk about the war, that's very disappointing. Let's change the subject and talk about women!"
"I love this topic. Kenloe was pleased, "You know, I haven't been close to a woman in almost ten years!"
"Wouldn't it?" Yoland's eyes widened, and he said in disbelief, "Didn't Zoro open a brothel in the Thieves' Guild, didn't you go to patronize it?"
"Sauron doesn't have any vision, the women he looks for are all skinny, not a few pieces of meat, I like strong women. ā
"Oh my God, I've finally found a soulmate!" Yolande paused, took Kenloe's arm, and said, "I like to find strong cows to be wives, even if it's temporary." ā
"But a strong cow is usually a woman or a fighter. If you sleep with them, you have to be prepared to be caught, or even bitten, and are you willing to do that?"
"Yes, I'd love it, and I'm not going to complain. ā
Kenloe also grabbed Yoland's hand tightly and said, "Alas, if I knew that the Hero Guild had someone like you, I would have come to drink and chat with you as friends!"
"It's not too late!" the two looked at each other, then patted each other on the shoulder.
It seems that both of them are sick and like to be abused by fierce women.
Elago: They were dumbfounded. What's wrong with these two people, they were staring at each other just now, why did they see each other all of a sudden?
For many days to come, people of both races fed, housed, and traveled together, and everyone mixed very well.
When they reached Hook Bay, Kenloe and the other savages suddenly froze. They have the impression that Hook Bay is covered with snow and ice in all seasons, but now the snow has melted, and it is a scene full of life.
Yolande stood in front of the ancient portal and said to Kenloe, "How about going into town for a drink?"
Kenloe shook his head: "We are members of the Thieves' Guild, and we will not be welcomed in Hook Bay." Didn't you see the soldiers on the walls staring at us? Yoland, it's a pleasure to meet you as a friend, and if you have time, you're welcome to come to the Savage Land. ā
"I will. The two said goodbye in tears, and Yolande watched the savages disappear one by one into the mysterious halo of the ancient portal, before leading everyone towards the city gate.
The soldiers defending the city recognized this group of dwarves and did not dare to slack off, so they opened the city gate and let them into the town.
Yolande said: "Let's stay here today, replenish some supplies, and set off tomorrow morning." ā
"Yes!" Elago immediately dispatched his mission, and the dwarves dispersed.
Luna and Saliel are walking along the beach when they see Yoland coming to Hook Bay, and Saliel waves to him from afar.
Yolande likes Sariel's personality very much, not only is he aggressive, but he is also outspoken, he can say whatever he wants, whether you like it or not, he belongs to the category of heartless people, such people are actually very easy to deal with. Sariel's only flaw is that she is too thin, and only humans would like this figure.
Yolande bowed and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess Luna, it's an honor to see you again. ā
Luna smiled and nodded, "Prince Yoland, I also feel very honored. ā
Saliel said, "Yoland, you've only been away from Hook Bay for a month, why are you here again?"
Yolande scratched his head and said, "Yes, Guzi hasn't gone back yet, I'm out to find him." ā
When Sariel heard the name, she became angry, and she exclaimed, "I think he is just a child, and only children will run away if they do something wrong." ā
Luna whispered, "Sariel, I'd like to talk to Prince Yolander privately, okay?"
"Oh!" Saliel was not wary of Yoland, seeing that his hair was unkempt, his beard was unkempt, and his body was dirty, he was still a big ball of meat, forgiving him and not being able to take away His Royal Highness the Princess, only the one named Gu Shiyu was not well-intentioned.
"Prince Yoland, you have to get him back no matter what, he has an important mission to open the portal to the Lost Lands!"
"Yes, Your Royal Highness Princess, So, Gu Shiyu is really the Chosen One?" Yolande was extremely excited, it seemed that returning to the Dwarf Kingdom was no longer an illusory fantasy, and he was happy to have a good friend like Gu Shiyu.
What a noble title and supreme glory it was, the only thing he regretted was why the Chosen One was not himself?
"Yes, because of that, I'm afraid that someone will work against him. ā
"How could it be? The people of the Heroes Guild and the Thieves Guild are all looking forward to him breaking the seal as soon as possible, everyone has the same purpose, and they shouldn't harm him. ā
"Perhaps, it's just my instincts, but my instincts usually come true. He may face two threats, one is that the natives of the Lost Lands do not want him to open the portal and will do everything to stop him, and the other is that Zoro will never be idle, and he will try to lure Gu Shiyu into his command. The Chosen One has great power from the gods, and now he is not very strong, but he is a growing lion, and when he gains enough power, no one can control him anymore. ā
"No, there will be at least two people in the world who can control him, one is you, and the other is Her Royal Highness Princess Catherine. As far as I know, Gu Shiyu loves the two of you deeply, and it is precisely because it is difficult to choose that he chooses to escape. ā
Luna's face flushed, "You may be right, love is the only reason we live in this world. Of course, this love does not only refer to the affection between a man and a woman...... Love can make a person stronger, but it can also make a person vulnerable. ā
"Your Highness Princess, will you make him strong, or will you make him vulnerable?"
Luna's face was flushed to the base of her neck, and it was very difficult to answer such a question, and she said in a half-loud voice, "Prince Yoland, you shouldn't ask me this question, I don't know him very well, but I just look like his lover, but in fact I am not." I am confident that Her Royal Highness Princess Catherine will give him everything he needs, and I am very happy to see that. Of course...... This is just a matter of concern between friends, so please don't misunderstand. ā
Yolande nodded and said, "If I find him, I will tell him what you said as it is." I'm glad he has a friend like you. ā
"Prince Yoland, can you protect him every step of the way?"
"Yes, I will not skimp on my life for his safety. If I have the chance, I would like to ask you to enlighten him, he may not be able to listen to what I say, but he will definitely listen to what you say. ā
"What you said makes it very difficult for me, not to mention that Her Royal Highness Princess Catherine does not want to see it. ā
"Your Royal Highness, I believe that you can handle anything with grace, you definitely have the ability. ā
ā...... Well, I'll be happy to help if you really need it. ā
