456. Sleepless nights

 The knights of the guard camp carried a large amount of loot on their backs and returned to the square station in the dust.

The mood of victory was beyond words. The knights dragged their tired bodies to set up tents while discussing the gains and losses of the battle. Soon the square was filled with white tents like fish scales.

Although the situation in the Maca plane is still very serious, there are already many war merchants who came after hearing the news and are waiting outside the square station, hoping to establish relationships with the knight commanders of the three guard battalions and conduct a round of war supplies and trophies.

transactions, but there are also some merchants who will contact some knights privately, offer better prices, and try to trade some loot.

The fountain in the center of the square has long been surrounded by a curtain, and it has become the bathroom of the guard camp. The first thing the knights of the guard camp did after putting down their bags was to take off their armor and wash themselves in the fountain.

The dirt and blood stains need to be scrubbed repeatedly with a brush to clean them thoroughly.

A huge torch with a base was lit outside the bathroom, illuminating the place brightly.

In order to prevent the knights of the three city guard battalions from concentrating on bathing and causing unnecessary conflicts, the commanders of the three guard battalions decided to divide the washing time, and the knights from the same city would wash together within a fixed period.

The two teams that arrived at the square also lined up behind the Plux Guard Camp during the washing period.

Surdak and Andrew set up the marching tent. Due to the huge size of the ogre, this kind of marching tent was obviously not suitable for him. Fortunately, the climate in the Maca plane was warm and pleasant, and Surdak found a few

He built a pergola next to his tent with a wooden pole, and bought a straw mat from a local businessman, which gave the ogre Gulitem a decent temporary residence.

Half-elf archer Samira couldn't wash up at the fountain in the square. As a Wozhimala native, the guard camp had just arrived in the square to set up camp, and half-elf archer left the camp carrying a bag full of loot.

Suldak and Andrew sat by the fountain, using a brush to clean off the sticky purple blood on the armor. This purple blood dried like a scab and stuck to the surface of the armor, making it very difficult to clean. Andrew tried using a brush

After brushing it for a few times, he threw the brush aside and complained to Surdak: "In the past, when I came home and licked my fingers, people would rush to do it. I thought it was very simple to clean the armor.

One thing, now that I have cleaned it up, I realize that it is really not easy.”

After the Helensa Guard Battalion returns to Wozhimara City, it will enter a period of rest and recuperation. Therefore, the top management of the Guard Battalion does not restrict the freedom of the knights. As long as they ask for instructions from their superiors and note the itinerary, they will basically get approval.

Suldak guessed that Andrew wanted to visit his family, so he asked him: "Would you like to go home and see?"

Andrew was slightly startled and looked at Suldak with a puzzled expression.

Surdak soaked the magic pattern armor in the pool at his feet, and said to Andrew: "While our guard camp is still in Wozhimala City, if you have time, go visit your family more.

You can take your trophies with you and deal with them yourself."

"If you find it troublesome to deal with it yourself, you can also hand it over to the guard camp. However, it is generally difficult to sell it for the highest price. The only advantage is that it is convenient. You don't need to deal with merchants yourself, and you won't encounter scammers."

After saying this, Suldak filled a clay pot with water, raised it to his head and poured it down.

The burn scars on his body have faded a lot, but they still look a bit shocking every time he takes a shower. He doesn't know what kind of fire he went through before to leave so many scars.

Andrew also has many scars on his body, especially his arms and legs, which are covered with many scars left when he was bitten by hell dogs. Now these scars have scabbed and fallen off, revealing tender pink new flesh inside. In the past few days

, the hidden injuries on his body quickly improved under the blessing of the 'Blessed Body'. Andrew stood up from the edge of the pool and asked excitedly: "Captain, can I ask for leave and leave the guard camp?"

Surdak glanced at him in surprise. He couldn't remember when he said he was not allowed to leave the camp, so he said: "Of course, but be aware that you have to come back every two days to cancel your leave. It may happen at any time after the guard camp rests."

When you receive a new mission, when it's time to set off, no one will be waiting for you here, and you will also have to accept punishment from the guard camp."

"Then I'll go back first. I really want to share the joy of victory with my family. Maybe I can let them have a good meal..." Andrew said as he put on the wet linen shirt again and put it on again.

A whole set of unclear and clean armor was trapped together with a giant axe. He carried it behind his back and strode out of the square camp, all wet.

The ogre on the side was much simpler, sitting in the corner of the fountain, constantly raising the barrel above his head, letting the clear water wash away the blood stains on his body, but he was also a little distressed at the moment, because Surda

Ke gave him a brush. Originally, the ogre thought that this small brush was a bit too small for scrubbing the body.

Then Surdak stood in front of the ogre and took out a toothbrush to demonstrate how to clean the ogre's teeth.

It took the ogre a long time to understand that the brush in his hand was also used to brush his teeth.

The ogre Grettum was hesitant. He had never done this before, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with a mouth full of rotten teeth. He reluctantly put the hard-bristled brush into his mouth.

"Brush well!" Surdak stood on the stone foundation in the pool and said to the ogre. "If you don't want to eat beef anymore and can still recall the taste of the sour meat of hell dogs, just do what I say.

Doing so will allow you to taste more delicious food.”

"Like the delicious wheat porridge for lunch?" the ogre immediately cheered up and asked.

His voice was very rough, and his voice attracted the attention of other knights in the bathhouse.

Surdak shook his head and said: "Those are the most common marching rations we eat. If you like to eat those, I can satisfy you later, but I plan to fulfill my promise and treat you to a sumptuous meal."

Beef dinner.”

"Barbecue?" the ogre said expectantly.

Suldak took out a box of canned luncheon meat from his magic waist bag, tossed it again and again in his hands, and gave the answer: "Canned beef!"

The ogre Gulitem immediately cheered: "Dak, I like cans!"

Surdak's original idea was to prepare a barbecue feast for the ogres, but according to Karl, Wozhimara City has been experiencing a shortage of supplies recently and prices have soared, especially fresh meat on the market, which has skyrocketed to just one silver coin.

After being able to buy two pounds, which was not always available, Suldak temporarily decided to switch to grilled luncheon meat.

As the knights of Constantinople began to enter, the knights of the guard camp of Helensa City left the fountain bathing pool in the center of the square one after another. It is said that the water flowing out of the fountain in the square this night was lavender and had a

A faint smell of blood.

Walking back to the tent, Surdak saw some injured knights from the guard camp waiting there eagerly. When they saw Surdak, the eyes of these knights were full of expectation.

After the Battle of Mezu Town, the injured knights from the guard camp of Helensa City all received treatment from Surdak after the war. Now most of the knights who come to seek treatment from Surdak are the knights from the guard battalions of the other two cities.

They heard that Surdak had the Holy Light spell that could heal wounds bitten by hell dogs, so they didn't want to go to the field hospital to ask those water magicians with higher eyesight for treatment, and the camp was closer.

Surdak didn't think anything was wrong. He immediately put down the things in his hands, got into the tent to prepare, and placed the items for the sacrificial ceremony in the tent. After everything was ready, he got out of the tent and went to the tent.

A table was set up outside the tent to receive the injured knights.

Although the ogre had some reluctance on his face, the honest big guy sat quietly next to him and did not mention the sumptuous dinner that Suldak had promised.

It will be daybreak in a while, and the ogre is lying on the straw mat in the pergola, looking up at the starry sky above his head and feeling unable to sleep.

Only the bathroom area in the square was still brightly lit. Many knights in other places had already gotten into their tents and fell asleep after taking a bath. Only in front of Surdak's tent were there still many knights who were treating their injuries.

The knight who was slightly injured did not need to pay anything. Surdak simply treated the wound and then used Holy Light to speed up the healing of the wound.

Without Andrew's help, Suldak would have to do some of the subsequent bandaging himself.

However, this situation did not last long. When those long legs appeared in front of him, Surdak knew that the half-elf archer Samira had returned. There was still a faint smell of soap locust on her body, and her head was

Her broken hair was still a little damp. She did not hide her face in her hood, but covered her face with a dark scarf.

The half-elf archer took the hemostatic bandage from Surdak's hand. Her bandaging skills were not inferior to Andrew's, but she lacked a little bit of Andrew's bone-setting skills.

For some knights who were seriously injured, Surdak needed to bless them with the 'Blessed Body' in order to increase their recovery power and speed up the healing of their wounds. He had to hand over the head of a hell dog and also take out a box.

The canned luncheon meat came, which was regarded as a reward from Suldak. These canned luncheon meats were piled higher and higher in front of the tent.

Seeing those canned luncheon meats, the ogre suddenly felt that this boring treatment suddenly became interesting. He really wished there could be more serious injuries!

If Surdak's 'power' is a demon statue that can send blessings, it is no secret among the three guard camps. Many knights even think that the 'Blessed Body' is an enhanced version of the Great Holy Light.

It wasn't until the dawn of dawn spread across the city of Wozhimara and the rising sun greeted the square that the number of knights waiting for treatment gradually decreased.

This time, the battle in the town of Meizu was a complete victory. After capturing the town, they stayed in the town for nearly a day. Therefore, many injured knights received treatment from Surdak in the town.

It is actually not too much to wait until returning to Wozhimara City for treatment.

Seeing the canned luncheon meat piled outside the tent, Surdak drove away the little sleepiness he had, took out the fire-gathering rune board from his magic waist bag and placed it on the ground, set up a barbecue grill, and used a dagger to remove the canned luncheon meat.

The box is cut open, and large pieces of meat are twisted up with a wooden spatula to make huge meat skewers, which are grilled on the grill.

The luncheon meat, which was originally cooked meat, gave off a rich meaty aroma when roasted by the magic flame. The ogre lying in the pavilion couldn't bear it for a long time and sat up from the straw mat like a big child.

Sitting quietly in the pergola, waiting for Suldak to grill those delicious meat skewers, his big innocent face was full of anticipation.

Surdak was worried that the ogre was not full, so in addition to grilling ten large skewers of meat, he also brought back a large pile of baked wheat cakes and threw them into the ogre's arms.

While the ogre was chewing wheat cakes aside, Surdak came to the half-elf archer and asked her to untie the bandage on her right arm.

Samira paused for a moment before untying the bandage on her right arm as instructed. What Surdak saw was still the right arm that had cracked with countless tiny wounds. Although this arm was nearly twice as thick as Samira's left arm,

, but there is still not enough carrying capacity to bear the magical power of the forest bow, and Samira always uncontrollably inspires that powerful power, which is the main reason why her arms continue to collapse.

"The condition of your arm is getting worse and worse. If you continue like this, you will soon be unable to draw the bow!" Surdak warned the half-elf girl again.

Samira was a little unimpressed, lifted up her black veil and took a bite of a green date.

Kakaka, sweet and crispy.

Surdak felt that Samira should pay more attention to her arm. Although she had the recovery power of the 'Blessed Body', her arm still did not get any better. This in itself was a very bad situation.

He said to Samira: "I know an excellent magic scholar in Helensa City. His name is Ferdinand. If this arm eventually collapses into a pile of rotten flesh, maybe he can help you graft a newer arm."

Okay, but I need to know your preferences beforehand."

The half-elf girl looked a little ugly.

Surdak ignored her expression and continued: "The arms with the most talent for archery are of course the winged people in Yunzhong City. Their arms have the power of wind, which can make arrows fly farther. But in the

It is said that the last Cloud City has disappeared for nearly a hundred years, and now those winged men are harder to find than giant dragons, and it is not easy to find a winged man's arm."

Then he changed the topic and said: "But I heard that the lizard people in the wild swamp have good bow and arrow talents. The only bad thing may be that there are fine scales on them, but I heard that they are the result of the degradation of the original scales.

The traces left behind, in fact, the skin of the lizard people is still very delicate, but the color is a little darker..."

"...I'm not planning to replace my arm!" Samira finally couldn't help but protested.

"Then you have to cherish it and take good care of it. Don't let it get hurt frequently." Suldak reminded her quickly, and then pointed to the new scar on her arm and said, "You have too many wounds on this arm.

, it is estimated that you will not be able to draw magic pattern structures on it in the future, but you can consider magic pattern colonization equipment. I mean, if you encounter a suitable magic pattern cultivation equipment in the future, you may wish to consider it."

Samira looked at the exposed half of Surdak's arm, which was covered with hideous burn scars, and asked him: "Are you also planning to draw a magic pattern?"

"Yes, I'm looking for it everywhere, but this thing is hard to come by!" Suldak nodded and admitted: "In addition, the magic pattern breeding equipment does not need to be drawn, you only need to find a suitable breeding equipment and implant it.

But carrying capacity is still the key!”

"I don't lack carrying capacity, but for the magic pattern, I need to enhance my agility and instantaneous explosive power!" Samira knew exactly what direction she wanted to strengthen.
