The thrilling sortie gave the soldiers two full days of recuperation, and they could relax and drive away the fears of the mutant liger.

But no one can really rest down, and they are talking about the opera house again with great interest. Word has spread that Qi Lang and Ou Wu are going to the opera house for a performance because of the controversy over their exploits! The excitement of the soldiers is astonishing, and if they can show this in the face of the mutant liger, then it is estimated that Quill will not have to give the order to retreat.

Zilang didn't know how to resolve the controversy Quill was talking about, but Owu mentioned the opera house, and he felt that he might have some chance—either to debate or to recreate the scene with a more accurate and vivid performance, and Zilang guessed that he would not be worse than Ou.

But he thought things too idealistic. What exactly is going on in the performance of the opera house, Qi Lang knows it from Gulf. Although he had secretly sworn that he would never have the slightest contact with the coward, at half past seven in the evening he unconsciously came to the edge of the River Edrich. Qi Lang had already developed that habit, as if that secret place was his daily sustenance, and if he didn't walk there twice, he would definitely not be able to fall asleep smoothly. Of course, Ou Wu had been staying in that tent 31, and his foul language was something Qi Lang didn't want to face.

"You're going to be out of luck, brother. Gulf was already waiting there, and as usual, his tone was still fussy.

But Qi Lang didn't really want to deal with him at all, his anger hadn't subsided yet—if anyone had just escaped from death, and his nominal good friend hadn't said a word about that terrible thing, and had cursed himself as soon as he came up, he would definitely not have a good time in his heart.

Gulf didn't see Qi Lang's face, and still looked worried: "You really don't know how much of a mistake you've made, brother. I'd never go to the opera house anyway to settle the controversy, really. The opera house has never staged any other show, except for the big star Scarlett who came to sing a warrior's hymn three years ago, which was only used to settle disputes. ”

Qi Lang had already closed his ears and turned his body completely to the other side.

"It's actually a boxing ring. The disputed soldiers will have boxing matches there, and whoever wins will be credited with the merit. Gurff continued to explain, and then confidently asserted, "You're going to be out of luck." ”

Qi Lang finally couldn't help it, the word "unlucky" made him feel very harsh, he slowly turned around, his eyes flashed with anger: "Do you care if I'm unlucky?"

"Of course I care, I really ......" Finally, Gulf saw Qi Lang's anger, and smoothly figured out why his brother was so abnormal today, "That's right...... I guess you're blaming me...... I was a coward indeed, and I didn't dare to rush forward. I'm sorry......"

Gulf's head drooped, his face flushed, and sweat oozed from the tip of his nose. He was ashamed, and Qi Lang felt that he should be ashamed of himself - a beginner warrior who backed down when his best friend was in trouble! Qi Lang was sure that if he and Gurf switched places, he would not hesitate to rush forward, regardless of Quill's orders, saving his friend was the first thing, even if it would cost him his life!

Gulf's mouth was open one by one, and it was clear that he was trying to find some more excuse for himself. But any explanation is superfluous! Qi Lang felt that this coward was not worthy of being his friend at all!

"I assure you, when Felix said that we had all returned, it was I who told Quill that you and Owu were still there, and really ......" Gulf's voice was so low that only he could hear it.

But Qi Lang was stunned for a moment, and Gulf mentioned the key. Yes, if Quill hadn't appeared, he and Owu would have all died, and there would not have been a single bone left. Qi Lang had almost forgotten about this, how could Quill rush back alone, if no one told him, that powerful warrior would definitely lead all the rookie soldiers to retreat. Gulf didn't show his courage, but he did his duty as a friend.

"I'm sorry, Gulf. This time it was Qi Lang's turn to apologize.

"No, I'm the one who should say I'm sorry. Gulf stubbornly fought back, "I really want to go with Quill, but you know, he gave the order to die, and we must withdraw our troops...... But I should have disobeyed his orders like you, yes, I'm scared......"

Gulf crouched on the ground, his shoulders twitching as if he were sobbing.

The apology in his heart came spontaneously, Qi Lang really hated why he was so unkind, and almost hurt his friend like this: "I'm really sorry, Gulf." Actually, I'm not as brave as you think, I just didn't hear Quill's orders. And you know, I'm not as stupid as Owu, so I don't want to give my life so early. ”

"But you still killed a mutant liger, you are the real warriors. Gulf was already grieved to the extreme, "And I, just a coward who is afraid of death, I don't even deserve to be a warrior......"

Qi Lang grabbed Gulf's shoulders violently, and persuaded his brother with all his sincerity: "Don't be like this, brother, we are just lucky. And the most important thing, have you forgotten, is the archery you taught me. It was thanks to you that I shot the monster in the eye, oh my God, it was both eyes, and I shot both! Can you imagine, like I shot the Ten Rings! It's your credit, brother!"

Gulf slowly calmed down, and although he didn't experience the battle firsthand, he was still intrigued by the experience of Qilang and Owu yesterday. He returned to his usual mood and asked Qi Lang to recount the scene repeatedly.

Ou Wu's stupid appearance, Qi Lang's two arrows, and the way the mutant lion and tiger beast was bleeding like a torrent...... When he heard Quill's beast pet Addis appear, he was almost intoxicated.

"Really, you saw that beautiful creature? Oh my God, he's so pretty, isn't he?" Gulf looked up at the starry sky, as if a one-horned leopard was roaming freely in the nebula in the night.

"What is he?" Qi Lang was also recalling the scene at that time, he remembered every detail of the leopard clearly, especially the pair of sparkling yellow eyes, "He is really a terrifying animal, but he didn't say goodbye to us, he suddenly disappeared." That's really amazing. ”

"Adis, the one-horned leopard, Quill's pet. Gurf's eyes were full of adoration, "Everyone in the Luman Empire loves him." He's just a big star, even more famous than Scarlett. I wish I could be promoted to the rank of Martial Master, so that I would have a chance to summon a beast pet. ”

At the mention of promotion, Gulf realized that he seemed to have touched Qi Lang's sore spot again, and his freckled face was apologetic: "I'm sorry, Qi Lang, my mouth always says the wrong thing, I guess you have long wanted to sew it up with a needle and thread, right?"

Qi Lang laughed, and the image of Gurve's thin lips being threaded through one by one by twine immediately appeared in his mind: "I think about it occasionally." But now I'm anxious to take them apart, because I want to know more about the pets. ”

Gulf also laughed, it seemed that Qi Lang's anger had subsided, and he had kept his only friend, which was the best news in the past two days.

"I've heard about beast pets from old Harry. "They are the friends of the warriors, the most dear of friends." As long as the warriors of the Luman Empire are promoted to the martial artist level, they will have the opportunity to recruit their own beast pets. They will melt into the souls of the warriors and rush out when they need it most to assist the warriors in destroying their enemies. ”

"In other words, we all have a chance to get such a leopard?" Qi Lang imagined how majestic it would be to have a beast pet like Ardis himself.

"Not necessarily. Gulf forcibly erased the leopard from Qi Lang's mind, "In this natural world, there are many strange creatures with that kind of spirituality, some of them are strong, some are weak, but they all have their own unique side. It is said that the pet is a divine object gathered by the souls of warriors, and it is a fateful partner prepared by God for us. Do you know Ensign Maggie, her pet is like a guinea pig named Nicole, and her only role is to secretly pick up the arrows that Maggie shoots. No one has ever seen what she looks like, and it is estimated that it may be ugly and unsightly. ”

"yes, there probably aren't any creatures in your mind who are worthy of Second Lieutenant Maggie, right?" Qi Lang deliberately teased Gulf.

"Don't talk nonsense. Gulf's face flushed again, and the name of Ensign Maggie had a special attraction for him, "I say, you better think about how to deal with the bear monster of Owu." I know you're very strong, but boxing is all about fists and strength. I dare say that among our 100-odd recruits, none of them can beat Owu in a boxing match. ”

"yes, Quill seems to be trying to make a fool of me. Qi Lang is back in the harsh reality. The opera house had been converted into a boxing ring, and he had foolishly thought that the dispute would be resolved peacefully, thanks to Gurf telling him all this in advance, otherwise Qi Lang would have been delayed in preparing the written materials for the past two days.

"Fight it, that stupid bear is very strong, but I believe there is always a way to defeat him. When Qi Lang said these words, he was actually not so confident.
