Chapter 274 Oasis, Brother's Responsibility, Go Away
Regarding the philosophical thinking of war and death, Beamon and human beings have natural differences. Therefore, after a simple exchange of views, Moriarty and Count Ronnie did not continue to argue because it was meaningless.
Next, the goblin airship continued westward, arriving at the oasis Belis about an hour and a half later.
Like an emerald resting on a huge sand plate, Burris is so small and exquisite when viewed from a high altitude. However, the three square kilometers of oasis is full of lush greenery, swaying branches and leaves, and the most important thing is its ability to resist drought.
The outstanding Elaeagnus trees are densely surrounded by a circle around the edge of the oasis, like a beautiful border. In the center of Burris, there is a crystal clear lake. Under the bright sunshine in the morning, Lake Burris
It reflects crystal clear light and looks like a mirror from a distance.
With the Yanpeng Aerial Cavalry as the forerunner and two groups of Electric Falcon Aerial Cavalry supporting them, the Dayun landed smoothly on a wide sand dune outside the oasis. At the same time, a group of Behemoth Guards in armor also quickly moved to the bottom of the sand dune.
The team is waiting.
"Come with me, Morty, Father should be waiting for you." Ronny stepped off the airship first, followed by Moriarty and others.
Both feet stepped on the white sand, and a heat immediately penetrated from the soles of the shoes to the soles of the feet. Sure enough, the surface temperature of the salt-alkali land was as "high" as rumored. It is said that Erathia, who came to attack Wolfsburg that year,
A considerable number of soldiers in the expeditionary force were injured by the "high temperature and high salinity" ground and suffered from "salt foot disease". They had to retreat injured before arriving at Wolf Castle. And only the Wolf Cavalry's generous separation
Only with hot paw pads can you step on the hot saline ground and still be safe, coming and going like the wind.
"Let's go in." Seeing Moriarty looking down at the ground beneath his feet, Margaret stepped forward and said.
"OK."
Walking into the oasis, it immediately felt much cooler. Especially the thin mist drifting from Lake Burris in the distance swirled under the shade of the palm trees, diluting the scorching heat rising from the saline-alkali land.
Passing through a forest, the mirror-like Lake Burris is right in front of you. And by the lakeside, a row of quaint Luo Man stands tall, like the "eagle flags" that guide the direction of the battlefield in the classical regiment of Crow Lord.
Under the pillar, a manor made entirely of rock sat peacefully. It was simple to the point of being crude, and seemed completely unable to match the power of Grand Duke Beamon.
"That's Burris Cottage. It was built by the previous Duke of Medamore." As a landowner, Margaret walked side by side with Moriarty and introduced softly: "It is the only original item of the family that has been completely preserved to this day. It is of great significance.
special."
"The Millennium House?"
If it is true what the female werewolf said, then this large stone manor by the lake should have a history of more than a thousand years. It is even older than many famous and majestic castles on the mainland. It can be called a miracle.
"Though gold and jade are extravagant and gorgeous, they cannot last long; rough rocks and conglomerates may seem humble, but they are immortal." On the other side, Count Ronnie spoke directly. His expression was full of pride.
"No wonder Metamoah is also called the 'Rock Wolf Family'. It seems that its roots are here." Moriarty nodded and continued to scan the entire oasis slowly.
"Margaret, is the water in the lake sweet? Can it be used to make ale?" At this time, Guderian, who was following behind, suddenly asked, and the speed with which he adjusted his thoughts could be called a "divine turn."
, worthy of being called “the first barrel of Olympus”.
"Haha, Crowlod is not interested in drinking that soft ale. A real warrior will only drink the strongest 'bayonet liquor'!" When talking about wine, Ronnie suddenly became excited, turned around and shouted to the dwarf,
It seems that he is also a senior "drinking buddy".
"Bayonet? What is that?" Since following Moriarty, Guderian has gained a lot of money in his pocket. He is the best customer in the eyes of the tavern owner, but he usually only drinks local products from Erathia.
Leitus, who still knew nothing about the good wine of the orcs, asked extemporaneously and cheerfully.
"It's a spirit brewed from corn and wheat, mixed with the bitter juice of a giant cactus in the Longlan Desert, and finally soaked a whole jumping lizard in it and stored it for three years." Margery said.
Te seemed to be very familiar with the process of brewing bayonets and explained it directly to Guderian.
"How does that taste?"
"It's just one word, strong. It's like a bayonet is stabbed into your throat!" Ronnie swallowed and said harshly: "But the taste will definitely be something you will never forget for the rest of your life."
"So good?" The dwarf's eyes widened as if he were the first brother entering the bridal chamber, and he immediately came to Ronnie's side in a familiar manner: "Get me some clams, get more!"
"It's not easy to drink! And being able to get drunk with warriors is the greatest pleasure in life." It can be seen that this high-ranking summer palace knight also values Guderian very much, and he readily agreed.
"Hey, Brother Ronnie, don't get all the guests drunk." The female werewolf immediately worriedly warned her, as if she was remembering the second brother's "invincible" performance at the wine table in the past.
"Why, my little sister hasn't been home for a long time, but she has learned to take care of others?" Looking at his favorite sister, Ronnie suddenly smiled leisurely: "Or the barrel of wine you brewed finally found its owner.
Can you open it and drink?" After saying that, he turned his eyes to Moriarty again, his face full of pettiness.
"Margaret, are you really good at making wine?"
Hearing this, Moriarty couldn't help but look at the female werewolf in surprise. No wonder she spoke so eloquently about brewing "Bayonet Fiery" just now. She turned out to be an expert. However, when Moriarty came over, Margaret
Suddenly he blushed quickly, and then without saying anything, he stomped forward and ran away. When he passed by Ronnie, he didn't forget to punch the second brother hard.
"Huh? It's a good thing that she can make wine. Why is she running away?" The dwarf looked at the running female werewolf strangely, with a puzzled look on his face.
"The relationship between you brothers and sisters is really good." Moriarty walked to the Summer Palace Knight and sighed softly.
"That's natural." Ronnie looked away from his sister who was running away and looked at Moriarty. The smile on his face gradually faded: "I heard that Moriarty already has a fiancée?"
"Yes."
"Have you ever thought about having one more?" The Summer Palace Knight's words were like his battle, direct and straight to his heart.
"..."
For such a question, Moriarty couldn't pretend to be confused, which would only make people look down upon or even disgust him; nor could he answer directly yes or no, because it was not a multiple-choice question at all.
Therefore, he could only remain silent.
"In Erathia or Brakada, there may be some 'unbearable and broken rules', such as monogamy. But in Crulod, men are born conquerors, whether it is territory or female partners.
, it’s all like this. The strong can gain everything, and the loser has nothing. This is the iron law of nature and the law of Cruelder! So, if you really like Margaret, I can help persuade Father,
I agree that you two should be together. After all, marrying a Yakuza warrior, even the daughter of the Midamoah family, is honorable enough. But if you don’t love Mary, don’t hurt her and stay away.
, and don’t see her again from now on. Otherwise, I will regard this as the worst provocation against the Midamoah family, and I will cut you into pieces!"
As he spoke, the Summer Palace Knight's eyes lit up brightly, as if there were clumps of lightning surging in them. At the same time, a murderous intent that was so thick that it seemed to be substantial also surged up, covering Moriarty like a monster.
"Morty!"
Seeing this, Naga, who had been guarding the back, immediately drew his knife and stepped forward, but Moriarty raised his hand to stop him.
"If Margaret can be happy, I choose to stay away."
After a long silence, Moriarty said in a deep voice.
"coward!"
Not expecting to hear such an answer, Ronnie's face suddenly turned cold, as if he were looking at a deserter who had cowardly escaped from the battlefield. Then he ignored a few people and strode towards Burris's hut alone.
"Your Mightiness!"
Hearing that the Summer Palace Knight was so intent on humiliating Moriarty, Naga immediately stepped forward to regain the ground, while the dwarf on the side no longer smiled. He was holding the mini battering ram in his hand and was going to hit the sap.
"He is just loving and protecting his sister, there is nothing wrong with that."
Shaking his head, Moriarty signaled his followers not to be impulsive, and then followed in Ronnie's footsteps.
From beginning to end, Clausewitz, who was left at the end, said nothing, just looked at everything in front of him quietly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Walking out of the woods with dense vegetation, Lake Burris is right in front of you. The stone manor stands on a green grassland by the lake, with a small dock behind it and a simple wooden boat tied to it.
After all, Ronnie, who had the responsibility of welcoming guests and walked away in frustration, stopped in front of the manor to wait for Moriarty and others, but there was no smile on his face. Beside him, Lin Gen, the Grand Duke's adjutant
Berg, smiled: "Welcome, Lord Moriarty. Please come with me, the Duke is waiting."
Without waiting for the other party to approach, the Summer Palace knight gave Moriarty a cold look, turned around and walked into the manor first.
Lingenberg just ignored this and still politely led everyone into the manor. However, the guards standing on both sides stared at every move of Moriarty and his group, as if they would be killed as soon as a signal was sent.
He would draw his knife and pounce on the intruder to kill him.
Somewhat unexpectedly, Medamoah did not summon Moriarty in the Burris Cottage, but waited directly by the lakeside behind the manor. When they followed the Summer Palace Knights around the main body of the manor to the small dock,
I saw Margaret cuddling affectionately next to a middle-aged werewolf, talking and laughing.
It was the first time for Moriarty to see the famous Grand Duke, and he couldn't help but look at it carefully. (To be continued...)
