Chapter 111: Oasis of Chaos
The humble inn barely kept out the wind and sand outside, and the burning fire barely dispelled the cold of the desert night, making the first night a little warmer for everyone.
Kobra, Roger and the others sat around the fire and listened to the older boy named Arufa tell the whole story, only Saitama held a cup of hot water, yawning incessantly, he didn't care about anything else, he just wanted to sleep at the moment.
"So, everyone just retreated to another oasis in the desert and wasn't defeated by the rebels?"
"Yes, because this oasis is often hit by inexplicable sandstorms, water and food are starting to be scarce, and everyone has to move to another oasis."
"Then why are you two staying here?" Kobra asked.
The young Arufa looked at his younger brother who was sleeping on the side wrapped in a blanket, lowered his head, and the young man sobbed and said: "The evacuation team left in batches, our father was in charge of the last one, and when they were about to leave, Suni rushed to his father with his men In order to buy time for the others, he and several uncles stayed to buy time......"
"Then Suni's team went after the others, and the two of us followed our father without running away and were caught by Suni, and then the rest is what happened to you."
"Your father, they'......" Cobra stopped talking, he had already guessed the end.
"I buried them under the land of this city." Arufa said, holding back his tears and no longer crying, his immature fists clenched, clenched with hatred that penetrated into his bones.
"They are all heroes of the kingdom of Alabastan, and the people will remember them." Kobra said.
"Your Royal Highness, can we really defeat those people?"
"Yes, yes, we will definitely win this war, because justice is on our side." Kobra said, turning his gaze to Saitama to the side.
Saitama still holds the cup in his hand, but the hot water inside is already cold, and Saitama has already fallen asleep sitting without drinking two sips.
Young Arufa followed Kobra's gaze and saw Saitama, remembering the terrifying strength of Suni's fiasco, Arufa was immediately convinced of what Kobra said - they will definitely win! Because they have justice, and Saitama!
As the night deepened, except for Kobra and Reilly, who were on duty, everyone else had already begun to rest, and some of them snored and quickly fell asleep, and everyone was already tired from the long journey.
"Kobra, do you know what the boy said about the oasis?"
"If I'm not mistaken, this place is on the map."
Cobra said as he pulled out the map he had drawn from his clothes and drew a circle in a blank space about the south of Brazil.
"It's called the Nzera Rainland Oasis, this oasis is different from other oasis cities that have been developed, the Nzera Rainland has never been set foot in before, and in addition to the many large sand lizards wandering around that oasis, it is also a gathering place for desert bandits, and if it is not forced to do so, the army of the kingdom of Yoba will never go there."
"How long does it take to get from Jobab to that oasis?" Roger asked.
"Normally, it takes a day, but Joba's kingdom army not only has soldiers, but also many citizens of Joba, and this group of troops is quite numerous, so naturally the speed will not be fast."
"So, there's a good chance that Suni's team has caught up with them."
"Without Suni, those rebel armies don't dare to attack easily, although the kingdom army is retreating, but it is not useless waste, on the contrary, their strength is very strong, especially those commanders Kaja and Zerube, the bird claws and black claws led by the two of them are the most elite forces in the kingdom army, with them, as long as the rebel army is not chased by a large force, there is no problem in protecting the people to evacuate."
"I see, if we speed up, we should be able to catch up with them."
"Theoretically, yes, but that desert is very unpeaceful, except for a lot of large desert beasts wandering, it is those hordes of desert bandits, we only have so many people on the road, we will definitely become their targets, and I am afraid that it will waste a lot of time to deal with those guys on the road." Kobra said worriedly.
"Don't worry, it's just a bunch of desert bandits." Roger picked up the firewood and threw it into the fire, unconcerned about the desert bandits that Kobra was worried about.
At that moment, Roger noticed a small patch of light in the desert not far from here, and Roger looked with a telescope and saw that it was a group of men with torches, who had returned from the other end of the desert, and were traveling in the direction of Joba.
After recognizing the rebel uniforms on the team, a sneer appeared on the corner of Roger's mouth: "Kobra, you stay here for a while, don't leave, I'll move my body." ”
"Oh, okay, don't leave for too long, I'm afraid Suni's men will come back......"
"It only takes a moment."
"Go ahead, I'll ......," Kobra said halfway through his words, and looked up again to see that Roger was gone.
"What's going on with Suni Boss? We haven't come here yet, and we've been discovered by the two captains, and if we hadn't run away desperately, we'd probably have died over there. ”
"Hmph, it's just a bunch of guys who are struggling to survive, and when we meet up with Lord Suni, there will be those guys who are good-looking! I can't wait to hear the desperate looks and terrified screams of those people, hahaha......"
Although a few people with torches fled like lost dogs and were very embarrassed, they were still looking at that triumphant appearance at the moment, and they were still looking forward to the supersonic Suni round to report the discovery of the trip.
"I said you guys seemed to have a good conversation."
At this moment, there was a sudden ridicule in front, and the expressions on the relaxed faces of several people instantly froze.
"Who is it?"
"Suni-sama?" Several people were suspicious and trembling at the same time, and at the same time, they drew their weapons, and looked around nervously.
"You're looking for that guy called Sunics Suni."
"Now that you know the prestige of Lord Suni, what do you dare to do with us pretending to be a ghost? Come out quickly. ”
"That's right! Otherwise we're going to shoot! "A few people pretending to be calm can't hide the fear in their hearts.
"Ah, I'm just here to inform you that the guy named Suni has been cleaned up by our guys, and it's up to you next." Roger walked out of the darkness with a smile and screamed the next moment.
Kobra faintly heard gunshots and a faint series of screams in the distance, but he couldn't make sure that the sound was quickly drowned out by the wind in the desert.
"Ah, I'm back, it's really not fun this time, my body is completely inactive." At this time, Roger's figure appeared by the fire, and the time was very short, as if he had not left just now.
The two didn't talk for a while, someone else came out to change shifts, and time passed minute by minute, and finally the morning light illuminated the world, and the desert day came again.
