Chapter 37: Reconciliation
"Bastard Pierre, I'm going to kill you!" Lancelot cried out in frenzy and rage.
Frightened, everyone in the castle fled in all directions.
Returning from the jungle, Lancelot was wounded.
The first thing he did was to get to the castle and rush straight into the alchemy tower to find trouble with Piye.
Facing the anger of a super powerhouse who had just been promoted to the level of a star warrior, even Pierre did not dare to face it directly, so he could only be dissuaded by Hines: "Lancelot, you don't need to be so angry. ”
"Oh, if it hadn't been for Glaire saving me, I would have almost died in the mouth of that dragon!" Lancelot roared, "I said earlier, that dragon is about to wake up, and it is impossible for me to go to the gates of hell to retrieve the spirit seed during this time." But you want me to go. I almost never came back!"
The spirit seed? It turned out to be for the spirit seed.
Gong Hao remembers very well that Neil said that the spirit seed is not a product of the Wind Roaring Continent, but comes from the abyss.
In the central area of Purgatory Island, there is a spatial portal to another world, where a large number of spirit seeds are scattered around.
It seems that Lancelot got these spirit seeds from the vicinity of the Space Gate in the first place, but there is a powerful demon dragon near the Space Gate, so he can only search for the demon dragon while it is sleeping.
Gong Hao still remembered that Pierre said that there were not many spirit seeds, and now it seems that there are really not many spirit seeds, so he asked Lancelot to take the risk of finding them again and again. Only this time he had apparently stabbed the hornet's nest - the demon dragon had woken up, and if he hadn't released his magic in time to use the dense fog of Purgatory Island to turn the battle area into darkness, Lancelot would have to stay there forever.
There is no doubt that darkness will always be more good for escape than pursuit.
This is obviously much more effective than one or two attack spells, Gong Hao believes that if he didn't use elemental condensation at that time, he tried to attack the demon dragon with the impact of the wind blade, but he was afraid that the consequence would not be that both of them would come out, but be buried there together.
Once again, he realized that the effective use of magic was far more meaningful than simply learning more powerful spells.
And the methods of using magic recorded in the magic book are not necessarily set in stone.
Who would have thought that Elemental Condensation, a method of enhancing meditation, would be used by Gong Hao to save people?
Hines looked at Gong Hao in surprise: "Gleyre, how could he have the ability to save you?"
Gong Hao was shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Master Hines, I just distracted the demon dragon from behind. The dragon lost the chance to kill Lord Lancelot because of this. In fact, it was the adults who rescued me later. ”
These words were basically in line with the actual situation, and even Lancelot couldn't say anything, just frowned. Since Gong Hao is unwilling to show his merits, there is no need for him to force it again and again. What's more, Lancelot's heart is quite angry now, and he is planning to hack Pierre to death with a sword.
Fortunately, there was also a group of high-level warriors and magicians brought by Avril to persuade her. Close even said to Lancelot: "Lancelot, the need for spirit seeds is Your Majesty's request. However, His Majesty obviously doesn't know how powerful and terrifying that demon dragon is, as for Pierre, you better let him go. Speaking of that dragon, do you think there is a way to destroy that dragon if we go to the jungle with you?"
Lancelot shook his head and said, "There's no need for that. I've looked around around the Gates of Hell, and I've brought back almost all the spirit seeds I can bring back. That demon dragon was very powerful, it even exceeded level twelve, and I think I could rank it as a strong existence at level thirteen. If you go together, you might be able to kill it, but the damage will be very heavy. The magic dragon can't get out of the central area, so there is no need for everyone to take such risks. Waste valuable combat power on this...... It's not worth it. ”
Cross nodded.
He turned his head and glanced at Gong Hao, with a deep meaning in his eyes.
He said to Gong Hao: "Aren't you going to ask me how the little princess is feeling now?"
Gong Hao smiled bitterly: "Master Cross, I guess it must be a very bad result. ”
"Yes. Cross laughed, "She swears she'll never see you again." ”
Gong Hao lowered his head.
Lancelot was a little surprised and asked him what was going on, and Gong Hao gave a general explanation of what had just happened.
Lancelot didn't expect Gong Hao to leave the princess alone in order to save him, and his expression was very exciting.
The gratitude to Gong Hao in my heart has increased a few points.

"Xiuy, why did you leave the princess to save me?"
Back at the little lake, with no one around, Lancelot finally asked.
Gong Hao thought for a while before answering, "There are many reasons. As soon as I come, I want to save you. You are my teacher, and although you don't admit it, you did teach me to be vindictive and saved me countless times. Anyway, I should help you once. ”
"What else?"
"The princess is growing up and has her own feelings. She is the daughter of the Emperor and should not like someone who is not worthy of her liking. ”
"Well, that's a reason too. I always thought you wanted to marry a princess, but it seems that you have always been sober. So is there anything else?"
"Also, I want her to know that not everything in the world can come according to her heart. If she is going to continue the wrong relationship, then she must be prepared to endure it. ”
Lancelot was a little sluggish.
He never dreamed that Gong Hao would say such a thing.
He looked at Gong Hao very strangely, and said for a long time: "Xiuyi, you don't look like a thirteen-year-old boy at all. ”
"I'm almost fourteen. ”
"It's still too young. ”
Gong Hao did not answer.
Lancelot patted Gong Hao on the shoulder: "I guess she must be very sad, but fortunately, she didn't order you to be arrested and killed." This shows that she doesn't hate you as much as she appears. Go, go see our princess, this is your last chance, you don't want to be hated by a princess, do you? Even if you don't want her to like you, at least don't let her hate you. ”
She vowed not to see me again. ”
"A girl's vow is the most unreliable. Trust me, Huey, it's true. Don't believe what girls have promised, they are emotional creatures who only come according to their feelings. Sometimes all you need is a nice word or two to make them forget and let go of everything that is not good. I know you're good at coaxing little girls, you can do that, right?"
Gong Hao smiled helplessly, saying that he was like a soft rice eater.
"Okay, I'll try. He said.
"That's right. Lancelot laughed. Although he experienced life and death today, he also reaped a bumper harvest because of this, breaking through the bottleneck that he had not been able to break through for a long time. The samurai had experienced life and death far more times than he had broken through, so he was more happy than angry after that crisis.
He was in a good mood at this moment, so he naturally talked and laughed at Gong Hao, and repeatedly urged Gong Hao to find the little princess quickly.
Before leaving, Gong Hao suddenly said to Lancelot, "Can I ask you a question? Lord Lancelot." ”
"Say it. ”
That's not a good question to answer. ”
"Say, say, for the sake of you saving me today, I will answer any questions you may have. ”
A narrow smile appeared on Gong Hao's face: "My lord, you know women so well, have you ever suffered the loss of a woman's rebellion?"
Lancelot was stunned and punched him casually: "The little bastard dares to laugh at me?"
Gong Hao, who had been prepared, laughed and dodged, and ran quickly towards the castle.
—————————————————
Avril was throwing a tantrum in her room.
"Get out of here, get out of here! Useless bastards, I don't want you to wait!
The maids were so frightened that they retreated.
Avril sat on a phoenix chair carved from camphor wood, and tears couldn't help but flow down her face.
"Damn Gler, you bastard, big bastard! I'll never forgive you! You abandoned me! Woowoo woo ......"
The little princess cried very sadly.
She hadn't experienced anything like this in years, and if anything happened, there would always be a large number of samurai mages to protect her. Isn't that what the samurai are meant to protect them, and why would Huyglare give up protecting the princess for the sake of a samurai?
Especially before that, he promised to always protect himself.
This damn bastard, I don't want to be friends with him anymore, it's not fun to be friends at all.
Her eyes were red and swollen from crying, and she looked very sad.
A handkerchief was handed over.
Avril took it and wiped her tears without looking at it, thinking that it was wrong, and said angrily: "Didn't I say that you should get out?"
The unforgettable voice behind her sounded: "Yes, Avril, I can get out of here for you if you want." I mean, if you want to see me rolling on the ground. ”
Avril looked back in amazement.
I saw Gong Hao looking at her helplessly.
"How did you get in?" she exclaimed.
"I promise your subordinates that if they let me in, then I will give them back a happy princess. ”
"Don't you, Gler. Avril didn't even call Xiu Yi anymore, and pointed to the door with her hand: "Get out of here immediately!"
"Are you giving orders to me as a princess?"
"Yes!" Avril said unceremoniously.
"It's a shame. Gong Hao shook his head: "When your friend didn't listen to your opinion, you no longer regarded him as a friend, but as a subordinate?
Avril was slightly stunned.
Gong Hao stepped forward, grabbed her shoulders, and said softly: "Avril, you are a good girl, but you have never had a friend, and you don't know what a friend really means, so you don't know how to cherish friendship." The beauty of friendship is that it is not always submissive to you, it is equal to you. It will make you happy and laugh, but it can also hurt you, make you sad and disappointed. Friendship is not obedience, friends are not servants, you must understand that. ”
"If that's the case, why do I need friends?"
"For what a friend can give you is what your servants cannot give you. Remember what I said, there are some things that you have to lose to get them. ”
"But I don't think it's good to have friends now. The little princess sobbed.
"Are you really sure you need to make Huigler the same as all your servants? I can kneel down to you, beg you, take care of you, and say to you like a clown, "O my princess, forgive me for my rudeness, and I will obey you henceforth, and then make a grovel look." But will you? And I can't tell you any more stories, and we won't have the laughter between us that belong only to friends. I won't joke with you anymore, because you need me to be afraid of you, and only friends can make those jokes on you and make you happy. You will still be lonely, and you will still not know what could be better in this world. We won't play together anymore, we won't walk in the jungle together, we won't feel each other, we won't care about each other...... Do you really want to do that?"
Avril looked at him in a daze and shook her head, "No, Huey, I feel happier than ever when I'm with you. I have many servants, but only one Hugh Igler, and I don't want you to be like that. ”
Gong Hao smiled: "Yes, I don't want to either." You are so lovely, like an angel. In my eyes, you are not a princess, you are an angel, the most beautiful and lovely girl. But if I become a servant like that, then you are just a princess, and nothing else. ”
Avril's voice became low: "It's strange, why do I feel ...... when I listen to you My heart was beating so hard. ”
"Yes, that's friendship, it's a kind of mutual care. When the other person is happy, you will be as happy as him, but when the other person is unhappy, you will be as unhappy as him. ”
Avril's brow furrowed, "It doesn't sound like friendship, it's more like love." ”
Gong Hao's heart skipped a beat: "Oh, there are always similarities. ”
Avril looked at him in confusion, "Are you sure we're friendship?
"Yes, I'm sure. Gong Hao replied very dryly.
This answer disappointed Avril a little.
She felt as if the problem had become complicated, as if she had overlooked something. Lowering her head and thinking for a while, she suddenly remembered something and shouted: "Oh, damn it, Gler, what kind of magic did you cast on me, I let you out!" She pointed to the door again, "Get out immediately, I said I wouldn't forgive you, no matter what you say, it's useless! I don't want to see you again!"
She finally remembered that she was not going to forgive Huyglaire anymore, and that she was going to drive him away.
Gong Hao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Since you are so insistent, then I will leave." With that, he walked softly out the door.
Avril watched him leave his room, stunned for a moment.
For some reason, she felt so much pain and was very uncomfortable.
Very uncomfortable!
Why is that? She didn't understand.
But she felt she didn't want the blonde boy to leave.
She didn't want him to leave her, she liked him by her side, and listening to him say those things to herself was like listening to the best voice in the world.
"Xiuy!" softly, she couldn't help but scream.
Oh, he's gone, he's never coming back.
I have no friends, I have nothing.
Avril couldn't hold back any longer, and cried out in a low voice.
The door opened.
Gong Hao reappeared at the door.
Avril couldn't restrain herself anymore and threw herself into Gong Hao's arms.
She said, "Huey, you're a bastard!"
Then he opened his mouth and bit down hard.
"Yes. With Gong Hao's muffled snort, all of Avril's dissatisfaction vanished at this moment.
Gong Hao sighed in his heart.
It seems that he has done a terrible job, and instead of taking the opportunity to distance himself from Avril, on the contrary, the two hearts are closer again.
This damned, soured friendship!
And the blessing of that damn lovebird!
In the distance, the red and green ears were slightly hot, and they looked up to the sky and roared proudly.
