Lord Highlander

Chapter 457: 456. Sleepless Night

The knights of the guard battalion carried a large amount of trophies on their backs, and returned to the square station in a hurry.

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

Although the situation in the Maca plane is still very serious, many war merchants who have heard the news are waiting outside the square station, hoping to get in touch with the knight commanders of the three guard battalions and carry out a round of war supplies and spoils However, there are also some merchants who will contact some knights in private, give better prices, and try to trade some spoils.

The fountain in the center of the square has long been surrounded by cloth curtains, and it has become the bathroom of the guard camp. The first thing the knights of the guard camp put down their bags is to take off their armor and scrub in the fountain. The dirt and blood stains need to be brushed repeatedly with a brush to clean them thoroughly.

Huge torches with pedestals were lit around the bathroom, illuminating the place brightly.

In order to prevent the knights from the three city guard battalions from bathing together 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 during a fixed period of time. The two teams that arrived at the square also lined up behind the Plush guard battalion during the washing period.

Suldak and Andrew set up the marching tent. Due to the ogre's huge size, this kind of marching tent is obviously not suitable for him. Fortunately, the climate in the Maca plane is warm and pleasant. Suldak 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 also gave the ogre Gullitum a decent temporary residence.

Samira, the half-elf archer, couldn't wash up at the fountain in the square. As a Wojmara, the half-elf archer left the camp just after the guard battalion arrived in the square, carrying a bag full of spoils.

Suldak and Andrew sat by the fountain and used a brush to clean off the sticky purple blood stained on the armor. This dried purple blood stuck to the surface of the armor like a scab, and it was very difficult to clean. Andrew tried to use a brush After brushing a few times, he threw the brush in his hand aside, and complained to Suldak: "In the past, when I got home, someone would rush to do this kind of thing. I thought it was very simple to brush the armor. It’s really not easy to know the one thing that I’ve scrubbed myself now.”

After the Hailansa Guard Battalion returns to Wojmara City, it will enter a period of rest and recuperation. Therefore, the high-level guard battalion does not restrict the freedom of the knights. As long as they ask their superiors for instructions and note the itinerary, they will basically be approved.

Suldak guessed that Andrew probably also wanted to visit his family, so he asked him, "Do you want to go home and have a look?"

Andrew was slightly taken aback, and looked at Suldak with a puzzled expression.

Suldak soaked the magic pattern armor in the pool at his feet, and said to Andrew: "While our guard battalion is still in Wojmara City, if we have time, we should visit our family more. You can take away your trophies and deal with them yourself."

"If you feel that it is a bit troublesome to deal with, you can also turn it over to the guard camp, but it is generally difficult to sell at the highest price. The only advantage is convenience. You don't need to trade with merchants yourself, and you won't encounter scammers."

After speaking, Suldak scooped up clear water with a clay pot, raised it to the top of his head and poured it down.

The burn scars on his body have faded a lot, but every time he takes a bath, he still looks a little shocking, and 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 are covered with many scars from being bitten by hell dogs. Now these scars have scabbed and sloughed off, revealing the tender pink flesh inside. In the past few days, under the blessing of the 'Divine Blessed Body', his dark wounds have also rapidly improved. Andrew stood up from the pool and asked excitedly, "Captain, can I ask for leave to leave the guard camp?"

Surdak looked at him in surprise, and couldn't remember when he said that he was not allowed to leave the camp, so he said, "Of course, but you have to pay attention that you will be back for vacation every two days. When you receive a new mission and it’s time for departure, no one will stay here waiting for you, and you will have to accept punishment from the guard battalion.”

"Then I'll go back first, I really want to share the joy of victory with my family, maybe I can give them a good meal..." Andrew said while putting on the wet linen shirt again, and A whole set of armor that was not clear and clean was trapped together with the giant axe, with his back behind his back, and he strode out of the square camp with his whole body wet.

The ogre on the side is much simpler. Sitting in the corner of the fountain, he keeps raising the wooden barrel above his head, letting the clear water wash away the blood stains all over his body. However, he is also a little distressed at the moment, because Sulda Ke gave him a brush, which the ogre thought was too small for scrubbing his body.

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

The ogre watched for a long time before he realized that the brush in his hand was also used for brushing his teeth.

The ogre Gretum hesitated, but he had never done this before, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with having a mouth full of rotten teeth. He reluctantly stuffed the bristle brush into his mouth.

"Scrub well!" Suldak said to the ogre standing on the stone foundation in the pool. "If you can still recall the taste of Hellhound's sour meat when you don't want to eat beef anymore, just do as I say, and it will make you taste more delicious food."

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

His voice was rough, and his voice caught the attention of the other knights in the bath.

Suldak shook his head and said: "That is the marching ration we eat most often. If you like to eat those, I can satisfy you later, but I plan to fulfill my promise and treat you to a hearty meal. beef feast."

"Barbecue?" the ogre said expectantly.

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

The ogre Gullitum cheered immediately: "Dark, I like canned food!"

Suldak's original idea was to prepare a barbecue meal for the ogre, but according to Karl, there has been a shortage of supplies in Vojmara City recently, and the prices have soared, especially the fresh meat on the market has skyrocketed to only one silver coin. He could buy two pounds, and he might not be able to buy it, so Suerdak decided to change it to grilled luncheon meat on the spur of the moment.

As the knights of Constantinople began to enter the arena, the knights of the guard battalion of Hailansa City left the fountain bath in the center of the square one after another. It is said that the water flowing out of the fountain in the square at night is lavender, and has A faint smell of blood.

Walking back to the tent, Suldak saw some wounded knights of the guard battalion waiting there. When they saw Suldak, the eyes of these knights were full of expectation.

After the Battle of Meijin Town, the injured Knights of the Guard Battalion of Hailansa City received Suldak's treatment after the battle. Now most of the knights who come to Suldak for treatment are the knights of the Guard Battalion of the other two cities. They heard that Suldak possessed the holy light technique that could heal the bite wounds of hellhounds, so they didn't want to go to the field hospital to ask those water magicians with eyes above the top for treatment, and the camp was closer.

Suldak didn't feel anything, 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 A table was set up outside the tent to receive the wounded knights.

Although the ogre had some reluctance on his face, this simple and honest guy sat quietly beside him, and didn't mention the sumptuous dinner that Suldak had promised.

It will be dawn in a while, and the ogre is lying on the straw mat in the arbor, looking up at the starry sky above his head and can't sleep.

Only the bathroom side of the square was still brightly lit. Many knights in other places had already got into the tent and fell asleep after taking a bath. Only in front of Suldak's tent were there still many wounded knights gathered.

The slightly injured knight didn't need to pay anything. Suldak simply treated the wound, and then used the Holy Light to speed up the healing of the wound.

Without Andrew's help, Suldak would have to do the following bandages himself.

However, this situation did not last long. When those long legs appeared in front of him, Suldak knew that the half-elf archer Samira had returned. The broken hair was still a little wet, and she didn't hide her face in the hood, but covered her face with a dark veil.

The half-elf archer took the hemostatic bandage from Suldak's hand. Her dressing skills were not as bad as Andrew's, but she lacked a little bit of Andrew's bone-setting skills.

For some seriously injured knights, Suldak needs to bless them with the "Divine Blessing Body" in order to improve recovery power and speed up wound healing. He has to hand in the head of a hellhound, and also take out a box Canned luncheon meat came, which was regarded as a reward from Suldak, and these canned luncheon meats were piled higher and higher in front of the tent.

Seeing those canned luncheon meat, the ogre suddenly felt that this kind of boring treatment suddenly became interesting. I really hope that there will be more serious injuries!

Now Suldak's 'power' is a statue of a demon god that can bestow blessings. It is no secret among the three guard battalions. Many knights even think that the 'Divine Blessed Body' is an enhanced version of the Great Holy Light.

It wasn't until the dawn of dawn spread in the city of Wojmara, and the rising sun ushered in the square, that the number of knights waiting for treatment gradually decreased.

This time the battle of Meijin Town was a complete victory. After capturing the town, they stayed in the town for more than a day. Therefore, many injured knights received treatment from Suldak in the town. It is not too much to really wait until returning to Wojmara City for treatment.

Seeing the canned luncheon meat piled up outside the tent, Suldak drove away the last bit of drowsiness, took out the concentrated fire rune board from his magic pocket and placed it on the ground, set up a barbecue grill, and used a dagger to smash the canned luncheon meat The box was cut open, and a large piece of meat was sprung up with a wooden chisel to make huge meat skewers, which were roasted on the grill.

The luncheon meat, which was originally cooked meat, exudes a strong meaty aroma under the magic flame. The ogre lying in the shed has long been unable to bear it, and sat up from the straw mat like a big child. Sitting quietly in the pergola as well, waiting for Suldak to finish grilling those delicious meat skewers, his big naive face was full of anticipation.

But Suldak couldn't eat enough for the ogre, so in addition to grilling ten skewers of meat, he brought back a large stack of baked wheat cakes and threw them into the ogre's arms.

While the ogre was munching on the wheat cakes, Suldak came to the half-elf archer and asked her to remove the bandage on her right arm.

Samira paused for a moment before undoing the bandage on his right arm as promised. What Suldak found was the right arm with numerous fine 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 arouses that kind of powerful force, which is the main reason for her continuous collapse of the arm.

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

Samira didn't take it seriously, lifted the black veil and took a bite of the green dates.

Ka Ka Ka, sweet and crunchy.

Suldak felt that Samira should pay more attention to her arm. Although she had the recovery power of the "Divine Blessed Body", her arm still did not improve. This is a very bad situation in itself.

He said to Samira: "I know a very good magic scholar in Hailansa City, his name is Ferdinand, if this arm finally collapses into a pile of rotten flesh, maybe he can help you graft a more Okay, but I need to know your preference beforehand."

The half-elf girl looked a little ugly.

Suldak ignored her expression, and continued: "The arms with the most talent for archery are of course the wingmen in Cloud City. Their arms have the power of wind, which can make arrows fly farther. 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 subject and said: "But I heard that the lizardmen 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 it is after the original scales have degenerated. The traces left behind, in fact, the lizard people's skin is still very delicate, but the color is a little darker..."

"...I'm not going to change my arm!" Samira finally couldn't help protesting.

"Then you have to cherish and love it, and don't let it get hurt frequently." Suldak quickly reminded her, and then pointed to the new scar on her arm and said, "Your arm has too many wounds. , it is estimated that it will not be possible to draw magic-weave structures on it in the future, but you can consider magic-weave breeding equipment, I mean, if you meet a suitable magic-weave breeding equipment in the future, you may wish to consider it.”

Samira looked at Suldak's exposed half arm, which was covered with horrific burn scars, and asked him, "Are you planning to draw the magicweave suit too?"

"That's right, I'm also looking for it everywhere, but this thing can be encountered but not sought!" Suldak nodded and admitted: "In addition, there is no need to draw the magic-weave breeding equipment, you only need to find a suitable breeding equipment to implant, But carrying capacity is still the key!"

"I don't lack carrying capacity, but for the magic pattern, I need to increase my agility and instant explosive power!" Samira is very clear about the direction she wants to strengthen.
