Lord of Hyranza

Chapter 18 17. The Brave Game
The tent was filled with a faint scent of perfume, and Baron Sidney was sitting on a chair in front of a square table with a thick parchment. On the square table was a magic lamp, and the wick of the moonstone emitted a soft light.

The guards lifted the brocade curtain of the tent, and Surdak strode in from outside, his boots stained with dirt and blood leaving a clear line of footprints on the beige velvet carpet.

Surdak had a choking bloody smell on his body, and the linen bag in his hand dripped with a trace of viscous blood. He glanced at the footprints behind him nervously. With a nervous and embarrassed expression on his face, he sneered at Baron Sidney behind the wooden table and gave a fairly standard military salute.

A coquettish laugh came from behind the gauze curtain of the tent bed, but the laugh stopped immediately.

Baron Sidney raised his head expressionlessly.

He is the kind of aristocrat who pays great attention to his words and deeds and appearance, always maintaining a calm heart and meticulous hairstyle, his eyes fell on Surdak's face.

Surdak only felt as if the beating heart in his chest was caught by a big hand, and he couldn't even breathe freely. He held his breath, stood up straight involuntarily, and said bravely, "Lord Baron, we are here. The Aboriginal people were found in the mountains north of the forest farm."

Baron Sidney's displeasure was not written on his face, but when he heard Surdak's report, he raised his eyes and stared at Surdak and asked, "Oh? Did you find it?"

Surdak subconsciously touched the half-moon-shaped rib guard on the breastplate and said, "Yes, my lord, they sneaked to the water source to fetch water, so we took the opportunity to kill three of them, but unfortunately we couldn't. Caught alive."

Baron Sidney's eyes first fell on the bloody bag around Surdak's waist, and then strode to the back of the desk, where a parchment map hung against the edge of the tent, and Baron Sidney held magic. The lamp, almost sticking the lampshade of the magic lamp on the map, pointed to the map and asked Surdak, "Can you understand this?"

Surdak followed behind Baron Sidney, walked to the front of the map, wiped his hands vigorously, and then drew a large circle in an area of ​​the map, and replied, "This is the forest farm area."

"Very well, can you point out where those natives of Handanallshire were found?" Baron Sidney's eyes showed approval, and his voice became much more pleasant.

Surdak did not rush to answer, but carefully observed the map for most of the day before saying, "Yes, it's probably in this area."

He narrowed down the area he had pointed out earlier, pointed to a ridge marked on the map, and said to Baron Sidney: "This group of native hunters is currently hiding in a cave on a cliff. There is a wide field of vision, and the entrance of the passage into the cave is extremely narrow, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.”

Baron Sidney nodded slightly and put the magic lamp in his hand back on the table.

"Are the heads of those indigenous people in the bag?"

"Yes, my lord."

After Surdak finished speaking, he was about to take off the linen sack.

Baron Sidney waved, signaling Surdak to step back.And said: "Tomorrow morning, I will call all the soldiers of the fourth brigade. I will apply to Captain Mond Goss to mobilize the longbow shooters to completely clear the area in the northern part of the forest farm."

After Suldak retreated to the tent door, he asked Suldak who was about to leave the tent, "Soldier, what's your name?"

"Surdak, my lord!"

Baron Sidney nodded slightly to Suldak and said, "Suldak, you have done a good job, I will write your name on the front of the military merit application form."

Then he waved his hand, indicating that he could leave.

Surdak, who walked out of the tent, shook his fist excitedly.

……

The curtain of the tent was lifted outwards, and the room had a faint smell of mint, which could effectively disperse the poisonous mosquitoes around.

He Boqiang looked up and saw the bunch of mint branches hanging on the top of the tent. The smell was refreshing, but it also made it difficult to sleep.

Gabi, the curly-haired boy, brought a bowl of steaming polenta, and sat at the door of He Boqiang's tent, making a 'ZiuZiu' sound from time to time.

The businessman Larkin sat opposite He Boqiang, with several dirty magic cores in front of him. He held a magnifying glass in his hand and carefully inspected each magic core. He first put it in his hand to feel the weight, and then Biting the protruding part with his teeth, and finally using a magnifying glass to carefully look for the blood pattern on the magic core, after all these tests were completed, Larkin exhaled a long breath, and his tense face eased.

With the corn on his lips, Gabi leaned over to Larkin and said, "Boss, how's it going?"

The businessman Larkin put all these magic cores into the wallet, carefully put them away, and replied, "It should be all in stock, little Duck, you all go into the mountains before dawn every day, are you hunting monsters?"

He Boqiang shook his head, and quickly made a throat slit, indicating that Larkin got these magic cores from the aborigines.

Larkin nodded, then patted He Boqiang on the shoulder, and said to him: "In the future, you can bring back such fine-quality demon cores, and I will accept them all."

Larkin then asked, "You're going to the forest farm with Sam and Surdak tomorrow?"

He Boqiang nodded.

Larkin said to He Boqiang, "Be careful, the group of natives got into the woods, just like returning to their own home. You don't have that layer of iron on your body. Leather armor can't stop those wooden spears and wooden bows."

After that, Larkin left with Gabi.

He Boqiang lay down on the leather mattress in the tent, thinking about the extremely bad life recently, as if the original world really can't go back, he is like a traveler who came to this world, everything in front of him is like that Novelty, and at the same time, he seems to be out of tune with this world.

Fortunately, the original owner of the body has a very strong physique, which is what He Boqiang should be most grateful for at present.

Recently, He Boqiang followed the second team in the forest area, and Larkin became He Boqiang's temporary residence. However, because Larkin took care of He Boqiang, Surdak also reciprocated, and traded some of the magic cores that the team recently harvested with Larkin. .

He reached out, rolled up the sleeves of his linen shirt, saw mottled burn scars all over his arms, and closed his eyes, not wanting to be caught up in that horrific memory.

To be honest, He Boqiang was a little tempted by Surzak's invitation, especially when Surzak said that he would introduce his beautiful sister to him, which made He Boqiang especially moved. Maybe he should get a card leading to Bena Province. 's teleportation pass to visit Surdak's hometown.

Surdak said that war is the game of the brave.

He Boqiang didn't think he was a brave person, but he was able to make so many brave actions before. Thinking about it carefully, He Boqiang felt that he had so much courage, maybe he just regarded all this as a role-playing game.

He looked forward to hearing someone say to him: 'game over' and he would wake up from his sleep.

However, Captain Sam said: If you want to live longer in the heavy armoured infantry regiment, you have to be honest, and you must not be brave...

Thinking about it, drowsiness comes...
