Chapter 803: Chapter 821-824

Chapter 821: It rained the whole night

Abel’s body was already half wet. When he walked back to the guest room, he left deep and shallow water marks on the road he passed.

“Hurry up and take a shower. It Won’t be good if you catch a cold,”Kant said to Abel after he walked through the door.

“Yes.”Abel nodded.

They had come in a hurry and didn’t have time to return to the hotel to pack their bags. They arrived at the top of the mountain empty-handed. There were no dry clothes to replace.

Fortunately, Abel was an elf who was good at water-type spells. The rainwater that had seeped into his coat was instantly drained after he cast the spell.

Kant watched from the side, and could not help but reveal a curious expression.

“I’m going to take a bath,”Abel said to Kant.

“Okay,”Kant replied, waving his hand. Then, he returned to his bedroom, took off his coat, and lay down on the bed.

The GNOME soldier arranged for them a room suitable for humans to live in, and the size of the bed was more or less in line with Kant’s body size.

The rain outside the window seemed to have no intention of stopping. Kant quietly recalled everything that had happened in the past few days. In the slightly noisy rain, he unknowingly fell asleep.

Abel roughly took a bath in the steaming hot bathroom. He put on his close-fitting clothes and walked from the bathroom to the main hall.

Kant did not appear in front of him. Abel raised his head and glanced in the direction of Kant’s bedroom. After seeing the tightly shut door, he felt at ease and found a chair to sit on.

His originally tired mind power was buffered for a while during the Bath. Abel did not seem to be that tired anymore.

The window in the main hall was still open. It seemed that after they left, the GNOME attendant did not come again.

The damp cold wind blew on Abel’s face. He looked at the dark night sky and thought of the moment when he saw Raphael’s cold and pale face on the shore under the same dark night sky.

A feeling of powerlessness spread through his chest. Abel let out a long sigh.

“Bunduk, you must be safe,”Abel muttered in a low voice.

In the small town at the foot of the mountain, the majestic rain converged into ponds of various sizes on the low-lying road. The streets were already empty.

Three hours ago, after receiving the weather warning, the residents immediately rushed out of the building and retrieved the quilts that were hanging on both sides of the street.

The inn’s owner was also instructing his staff to go to the top floor of the house to take back all kinds of food and place them in a dry place.

As a result, the guests’meal time was delayed a little.

Hearing the footsteps outside the door, Bunduk stood up from the tea table and looked out of the window at the sky.

When he saw the dark clouds that appeared in the horizon, he frowned slightly and said softly, “His Majesty and Abel didn’t even bring their bags. They won’t run into any trouble, right?”

“Knock, Knock, Knock!”A knock sounded at this moment.

Bunduk walked skillfully to the door and opened it. Sure enough, it was the bellhop from the inn.

“Lord Bunduk, I’m sorry. The shop is busy preparing for the rain. We can’t work in the kitchen.”The waiter bowed to Bunduk, “I’m here to inform you that dinner may be delayed by half an hour or so,”he said

“Oh, it’s okay.”Bunduk shook his head indifferently and replied simply.

He didn’t plan to have dinner at first, and in his eyes, such a notice was really not important. No one would need to eat dinner on time, right.

“Well, as compensation, we will add a dessert to the menu of each guest.”The waiter handed over a familiar menu, he explained to bunduk, “After the internal affairs of the inn are settled, I will immediately pass the menu you made a remark to the chef.”

Bunduk scratched his head and said, “It doesn’t matter. I Don’t plan to have dinner tonight.”

“Huh? Why?”The waiter asked curiously.

“It’s quite embarrassing to say this: I don’t have much money on me. The money is all with my friend.”Bunduk laughed and said, “I can’t just dine and dash here, can I?”

“Lord Bunduk is a special customer of our inn. The boss has already told us that all meals and accommodation are free. You Don’t have to worry about this.”After hearing the reason, the waiter raised his head and explained.

“Special customer?”Bunduk was puzzled.

“That’s indeed the case.”The waiter nodded with a smile and said, “From the Moment You defeated the Beast Tamer This Morning, Lord Bunduk, you were a VIP that all the inn and restaurants on this street had to bow to. “It is our honor that you have chosen to stay with us.”

Bunduk widened his eyes and looked at the waiter in front of him in disbelief.

After a while, he said hesitantly, “You mean, if I win against pick, I can eat in the restaurant without spending money?”

“Yes.”The waiter nodded. “Usually, pick bullied everyone. He did whatever he wanted because he had some connections with the people in the inspection hall and no one could beat him. Now that he finally left this street, everyone was overjoyed. The boss of our shop is the same.”

“I see.”Bunduk held his forehead and said, “I didn’t think that defeating pick would have such an effect. Wait, you said he left?”

“Yes.”. It seemed that just a few hours ago. Someone saw him leave with his bags,”the waiter said. “And his living quarters have been smashed into pieces by him. He probably won’t come back.”

“Do you know where he went?”Bunduk continued to ask.

“I don’t know.”The waiter thought for a while and shook his head.

“Alright.”Bunduk stood where he was and pondered.

The waiter saw Bunduk immersed in his thoughts. After handing the menu to him, he took his leave.

Bunduk took a thick menu and returned to the main hall of the room and sat down.

He looked at the dishes casually. His mind was filled with thoughts about the possibility of pick leaving.

“Where will he go?”Bunduk held his chin and asked in puzzlement.

Although he had seized the opportunity today to make a comeback in the battle with pick. But in Bunduk’s heart, he wanted to have a fair and square fight with pick. Right now, he didn’t know where his opponent had gone to, and the anxious atmosphere once again enveloped Bunduk.

“Forget about him.”Bunduk shook his head and said. Then, he focused on ordering the dishes.

Although he had suffered a lot today, with such a reward as compensation, Bunduk’s mood became much clearer.

Bean-sized raindrops fell on the inn’s window, and Bunduk heard a clamor coming from the lobby on the first floor.

Chapter 822: Determination to investigate alone

On the morning of the second day, Gilbert returned to the GNOME country a little earlier than expected. After hearing the news of Kant and Abel’s arrival from the soldier guarding the city, he immediately rushed to the palace.

On the other side, Kant and Abel had already eaten breakfast and were waiting for Gilbert to appear outside the door of the meeting hall.

“My Lords, Your Highness Gilbert has already arrived at the city gate and is currently on his way back to the palace.”A gnome attendant went around the garden and rushed to Kant and Abel in a hurry, bowing and reporting.

“Yes, we understand. Thank you.”Abel helped the attendant up and said to him.

“Please take a seat in the hall, my lords. In case your highness Gilbert comes and blames us for not treating you well.”The attendant led the way to Kant and Abel.

Kant and Abel looked at each other and nodded in response. “Very well. Thank you, Your Highness.”

“No, no.”The waiter lowered his head and said.

The waiter took a step forward and led the two of them to the guest seats in the hall.

“Your Highness, please take a rest. Your Highness Gilbert will come and meet with you later.”After saying this, the waiter took his leave politely.

Kant picked up the Teacup on the wooden table and took a sip.

After a while, Gilbert walked to the door of the palace, looking travel-worn.

“Abel! And Your Highness Kant, why did you come to the mountain?”Gilbert took off the brocade robe he was wearing and walked to his seat. He gestured for the two people to sit down and asked.

“Your Highness Gilbert, we heard that you went to the snake-woman kingdom,”Kant said.

“Yes, I went to the snake-woman kingdom to investigate the sinking of the ship,”Gilbert replied. “You came to me for this matter?”

“More or less,”Abel explained. “Yesterday, after you took the snake-woman named Kala away, the members of the dark forces in the town kidnapped Bunduk. “Now, we have completely lost contact with Bunduk.”

“What?”Gilbert’s eyes widened. He put down the Teacup in his hand and said, “They actually dared to kidnap Bunduk?”

“We Met a beast tamer at the entrance of the guild, and he took the initiative to talk to us,”Abel said. “He said that there was a limited number of slots in the ‘Latata’guild, and they needed to line up. “So we left Bunduk to line up with him. We didn’t expect him to be a member of the dark side. After we left, he attacked Bunduk.”

“I see,”Gilbert muttered. “They must have some special purpose for kidnapping Bunduk at this time. Have you received any news from them so far?”

“Not yet.”Kant shook his head and said, “However, we believe that the Dark Side’s purpose for this operation is to exchange hostages with us. They want to use Bunduk to exchange for KLA.”

“Kla?”Gilbert’s expression immediately turned ugly when he heard Kant’s name.

“Oh right, that snake-woman should have followed you back to the main city of the Gnome, right?”Bunduk asked.

“No, she hanged herself. “On the way back,”Gilbert explained in a heavy tone, “That snake-woman has a high position in her tribe. “She refused to admit that she was a member of the dark side. “The elders of the snake-woman tribe seem to trust her. “I finally obtained the permission to take her out of the estate. “Now that something has happened to her, I can’t explain it to the lord of the snake-woman tribe.”

After listening to Abel’s statement, Abel and Kant swallowed the words they wanted to say.

“Gilbert, what do you plan to do next?”Abel asked cautiously.

“We don’t know yet.”Gilbert drank a mouthful of tea and replied, “It’s necessary to personally come and apologize. I just hope that the snake-woman tribe will have a barrier with us because of this matter.”

“Has the news of the snake-woman hanging herself spread to the town?”Kant asked.

“I don’t think so.”Gilbert shook his head, “I don’t think the news will spread to the world so quickly. After all, I only sent people to inform the snake-woman clan’s leader about this matter. Bunduk should still be safe for now.”

“I’ve already mobilized a batch of soldier and rushed to the small island,”Kant said. “I hope that when the situation isn’t so bad, I can lend a hand to the forces on the surface.”

“I’m also very surprised that the fight on the island will involve the forces outside the island.”Gilbert nodded. “I’ll immediately send people down the mountain to inform the soldier at the foot of the mountain and conduct a search of the town. “I hope that I can confirm that Bunduk is safe in the hands of the dark forces by today.”

“Thank you.”Kant and Abel bowed their heads slightly and thanked him.

“It’s nothing.”Gilbert waved his hand and said.

After chatting about official business, Gilbert sat on his throne, looking very tired.

“Your Highness, did you stay up all night to rush back to the city?”Kant glanced at Gilbert and advised, “Why don’t you go back to the sleeping palace to rest first. The two of us will take our leave first.”

“Alright then.”Gilbert nodded. “As soon as the soldier at the foot of the mountain has news, I will inform you.”

“Yes.”Kant left his seat, bowed slightly, and left with Bunduk.

The two left the hall and returned to their living quarters.

Before the soldier at the foot of the mountain sent the news, it was impossible for them to leave the Gnome Kingdom.

“If Kala is dead, our clues will be cut off,”Abel said to Kant.

“I have a feeling that Gilbert must have gotten some definite information from the snake woman tribe, but he is just unwilling to tell us.”Kant held his forehead and said, “It is really strange for a high-level figure of the dark side organization to suddenly choose to hang himself while being brought back to the volcano by the Gnome Kingdom for interrogation.”

After hearing Kant’s speculation, Abel’s face showed a surprised expression. After taking a seat beside Kant, he asked him, “Your Highness, can you guess what kind of Information Gilbert is hiding?”

“This, for the time being, I don’t know. It’s just a strong premonition in my heart.”Kant thought for a moment and replied.

“I believe what your Highness said.”Abel nodded slightly and said, “I also feel that what Gilbert said to us after he returned to the city is a bit strange.”

“Even if it’s true, Gilbert didn’t choose to tell us the clues. We can only keep to ourselves and stay where we are,”Kant said with a sigh.

“Gilbert and I have some friendship. Why don’t I ask him directly and see what he has to say?”Abel thought for a while and suggested.

Chapter 823: Portraits everywhere

Kant nodded slightly and agreed. “This matter is indeed more suitable for you to handle. However, when you ask him, he still chooses to keep his mouth shut. Remember not to force him.”

“Yes.”Abel nodded.

In the small town at the foot of the volcano, the streets and alleys were covered with pictures of Bunduk after one afternoon.

After having a free lunch at a restaurant at the corner of the street, Bunduk returned to the inn where he was staying.

He found that there was an unfamiliar picture stuck on the door of the inn, so he squeezed into the crowd to take a closer look.

“Bunduk?”The toothpick in Bunduk’s mouth fell on the bluestone brick, and he said in surprise, “Why is my name on the Wanted Poster?”

On this wanted poster, Bunduk was described as a heinous bandit. At the end of the wanted poster, it was clearly written: “The Nomads who help capture this wanted criminal will be rewarded with ten gold coins.”.

This could be considered a huge sum of money. Bunduk covered his face with his hand and escaped from the crowd. He walked into the inn and glanced at the guests who were resting in the lobby. He quickened his pace and rushed to the second floor. However, he was stopped by the inn’s owner on the way.

“Lord Bunduk!”The inn’s owner called out happily.

“What… What’s the matter?”Bunduk froze and asked guiltily.

“The GNOME Soldier is waiting for you in the room upstairs. I’ve been looking for you everywhere,”the inn owner said with a smile.

Bunduk stared at the inn owner with a puzzled look for a while and said, “I know they’re looking for me, but it’s… not convenient for me now…”

“Do you have something urgent?”The inn owner asked curiously, “These Lord soldiers came to pick you up.”

“… is that so?”Bunduk smiled awkwardly.

“Come with me quickly. The Lord soldiers are eating snacks upstairs and waiting for you.”The inn owner greeted with a smile.

“No, no, no.”Bunduk rejected the inn owner’s invitation and explained, “I want to go back to my bedroom first.”

“It’s okay. I have already asked the staff to pack your bags.”The inn owner was stunned, after thinking for a while, he smiled and explained, “When you have finished talking with the soldiers, Lord, your bags will be brought to you by the staff. We will go up the mountain with you.”

“Go up the mountain?”Bunduk recalled the inn owner’s words and asked in surprise.

“That’s right. weren’t these gnome soldier sent by Lord Kant and Lord Abel to bring you up the mountain?”The inn’s owner said, “The gnome country’s noble palace is much more comfortable than our lousy inn.”

After listening to the explanation, Bunduk took a deep breath and relaxed. He softly read, “So Your Highness Kant and the others went to the Gnome Country.”

“Lord Bunduk, what are you mumbling about?”The inn owner looked at Bunduk and asked.

“Nothing.”Bunduk smiled, waved his hand and said, “There are wanted notices about me everywhere on the street. I thought that these gnome soldier had some misunderstanding and came to arrest me.”

“How could it be? This kind of search method is quite common in this small town.”The inn owner shook his head, he said, “I heard from the Gnome Lords who came to pick you up that Lord Kant and Lord Abel thought that you were taken away by the Beast Tamer who used to live at the corner of the street. “So I asked Your Highness Gilbert to help me search for you in the city. “When they came to interrogate me this morning, I was also shocked.”

“I see.”Bunduk sighed in his heart. Fortunately, it was just a misunderstanding. Ever since they came to this small island, Caradia’s group had been plagued with disasters. Bunduk was constantly worried that he would be ambushed by the dark forces.

“Yes. Now that the explanation is clear, Lord Bunduk can rest assured and follow me to meet the Gnome Lords, right?”The inn owner asked.

“Of course.”Bunduk followed the inn owner’s footsteps and walked up to the second floor. He stopped in front of the door of a room on the left.

“Lord Bunduk, please come in.”The inn’s owner stood in front of Bunduk, opened the door and turned back to call him.

“Yes.”Bunduk walked into the room and saw six gnome soldier sitting around the dining table. One of the GNOME soldier was stunned when he saw Bunduk’s face, he immediately stood up and greeted, “Hello, Lord Bunduk from Caradia. “We are the GNOME soldier who is in charge of patrolling in the city. Lord Gilbert has ordered us to find you in the small town and bring you back to the GNOME Country.”

“Hello,”Bunduk replied politely. “I saw the wanted notice downstairs. I didn’t expect that it was Gilbert who sent you to find me.”

“I heard from the nomads on this street that you eliminated the local Demon Beast Tamer.”Another gnome soldier stood up and said to bunduk, “You beat him up and forced him to leave this town.”

“Uh,”bunduk explained embarrassedly, “Actually, I don’t really know the reason why he ran away…”

“Lord Bunduk, you don’t have to be modest. The battle between you and Beast Tamer Pick can be considered to have brought benefits to the GNOME soldier who maintains public order.”A gnome soldier said, “In the past, the streets around here were always disturbed by that kid.”

“Alright. Then I have done a good deed.”Bunduk took a deep breath and said with a smile.

“Yes.”The GNOME soldier nodded.

“Lord Bunduk, your luggage has arrived.”A familiar-looking attendant knocked on the door and said as he carried his bags into the room.

“Thank you.”Bunduk nodded.

“Then I will take my leave first.”The attendant looked at the Gnome soldier and bowed.

Bunduk did not continue the conversation with the Gnome Soldier, he said, “I heard that you are here to bring me up the mountain. Actually, a few days ago, I heard that your Highness Kant and Abel climbed up the teleportation formation and climbed up the mountain. I also wanted to go up the mountain to look for them. However, I was short of money…”

“Lord Bunduk, you don’t have to worry about this.”A gnome soldier shook his head and said, “The problem you mentioned, we will naturally solve it for you. “We have been supervising the teleportation formation for the past two years. With US escorting you up the mountain, you don’t have to pay any fees.”

“Then, thank you very much.”Bunduk thanked them gratefully. However, his expression quickly darkened again. He said to the GNOME soldier with a troubled expression, “Then, I have another request…”

“What?”The GNOME soldier asked curiously.

“Can you or the other patrolling soldiers remove the arrest warrant posted on the streets and alleys?”Bunduk said hesitantly, “After all, the portrait and I don’t have much in common. I also don’t want everyone to misunderstand.”

Chapter 824: Longing for reunion after a long separation

“I see.”The gnome soldier nodded in realization, “We will do this for you. Please don’t worry, Lord Bunduk.”

“Thank you, thank you.”Bunduk held the hand of one of the GNOME soldier and said sincerely.

“However, the most important task now is to escort Lord Bunduk to the Gnome Kingdom.”A gnome soldier who looked like a leader stood out, he said to bunduk, “Let’s not delay. Let’s set off immediately. Don’t Let Your Highness Kant and Gilbert wait for too long.”

“Alright.”Bunduk nodded. Then, he picked up his own bags with one hand and set off with the soldier and his group.

A carriage had already been parked at the entrance of the inn. The person sitting on the carriage driver’s seat was also a GNOME soldier in armor.

“Lord Bunduk, please get on the carriage,”a GNOME soldier instructed.

“Okay.”Bunduk obediently stepped on the ladder that the carriage driver had built for him and walked into the carriage.

Six gnome soldier separated into two lines and stood on both sides of the carriage. When the carriage started moving, they also followed the carriage and ran quickly on the street.

Bunduk held the bags in his arms and looked out of the carriage window. He discovered that every GNOME Soldier’s tutorial was extremely fast. They were practically walking close to the carriage, and they looked very relaxed.

“They’re really amazing.”Bunduk sighed.

Thinking back to that day, Pick’s lively movements were completely different from the Gnome Soldier’s appearance.

Thinking of this, Bunduk shouted at the GNOME soldier outside the carriage window, “Warrior, do you know where the Beast Tamer went?”

“I heard that he left the town. As for where exactly he went, we still don’t know.”The Gnome soldier turned his head and replied.

“Okay, thank you.”Bunduk nodded and said.

“It’s okay.”

Bunduk put down the curtain covering the window and thought to himself, ‘this kid actually left the small town. He really escaped too far.’. ‘It seems that I won’t see him while I stay on the small island.’.

The carriage drove for half an hour and arrived at the base where the teleportation formation was set up.

It was the first time that Bunduk had ridden on this thing, and his face was filled with curiosity. After teleporting up the mountain in the blink of an eye.., he said in surprise, “This is really good stuff. I wonder if I can apply to His Majesty Kant to build one in Caradia. This way, Derrick’s return to Drondheim will be more convenient.”

“Hehe.”A soldier looked at the change in Bunduk’s expression and said with a smile, “The humans shouldn’t store large amounts of magic stones, right? That’s the foundation for building a teleportation formation.”

“Are magic stones hard to find?”Bunduk heard an unfamiliar term and asked curiously.

The GNOME soldier waved his hand in panic, he said, “As long as your country is willing, it shouldn’t be hard to find. It’s just that this teleportation formation not only needs a large number of magic stones, but when activating the formation, it also needs the support of a mage with a certain level of cultivation.”

After hearing this, Bunduk recalled the old mage that he had seen at the base of the mountain. Although Bunduk did not know spell, when he got close to the mage, he could still feel the influence of the powerful mind power of the other party on him.

“It seems that the construction of the teleportation formation is indeed very difficult,”said Bunduk as he nodded gently.

The group walked along the mountain road that was opened up. After an hour of trekking, they finally arrived at the city gate of the GNOME.

Looking at the towering city tower, Bunduk said, “I didn’t expect the Gnome’s estate to be like this.”

“We don’t have the divine skills of the Midget clan. We can only build buildings that imitate the human style,”a GNOME soldier answered casually.

“It looks pretty good,”Bunduk said softly. “By the way, Does Your Highness Kant and the others know that you are going to bring back news about me?”

“No,”the GNOME soldier covered up his embarrassment and answered, “Only the soldier at the foot of the mountain knows that we have found Lord Bunduk.”

“That’s good,”Bunduk said indifferently. “In case the dark forces come to us.”

“If those people dare to come to the city gate of the Gnome Kingdom and make a ruckus, then they won’t be able to get away with it,”a GNOME soldier said fiercely.

“Hehe.”Bunduk laughed softly and didn’t comment.

When the soldier at the city gate saw Bunduk, he immediately opened the city gate and sent someone to the palace to report the news.

Bunduk sat in the carriage prepared by the soldier and rushed to the palace without any delay.

Thinking of seeing Kant and Abel soon, Bunduk could not help but look out of the window from time to time. He hoped to arrive at his destination earlier.

“Phew…”the GNOME soldier stopped the carriage and said to Bunduk who was in the carriage, “Lord, we have arrived at the palace.”

“Okay.”Bunduk nodded. He took his bags and got off the carriage.

Kant and Abel stood outside the palace gate early in the morning, waiting for Bunduk’s arrival. When they heard that Bunduk had arrived outside the city gate, both of them had an incredulous look on their faces, but then they were very happy.

At this moment, when they saw Bunduk get off the carriage, they excitedly walked forward and hugged him.

Bunduk was caught off guard by their hug. He staggered and put down the luggage bag in his hand.

“Bunduk, I thought you were tortured by the dark forces.”Abel was the first to let go, Patting Bunduk’s shoulder.

“I’m fine. “I’m very well now.”Bunduk explained with a smile: “That kid named pick put a worm worm on my body, but I didn’t expect that I could seal my veins and escape from his binding. “On the morning when you went up the mountain, I returned to the inn.”

“It is good that you are fine.”Kant nodded to bunduk: “Did you get rid of that Beast Tamer named pick?”

“No.”Bunduk shook his head, saying: “After I forced him to hand over the antidote, I ignored him. He was severely injured by me and seems to have left the town.”

“I see.”Kant nodded and didn’t say anything else.

“You also suffered a lot of injuries, right?”Abel asked with concern. “When we rushed over that day, we heard the bystanders say that the Beast summoned by the Beast Tamer slammed you into the brick wall and you fainted on the spot.”

“Yes. The cheetah’s body suddenly grew several times larger. The attack from behind was indeed quite difficult to endure.”Bunduk recalled the pain at that time and couldn’t help but break out in cold sweat.

“Did you apply the medicine?”Kant asked.

“Yes. The inn’s boss prepared some medicine for me.”Bunduk nodded.

“During the battle, did that Beast Tamer talk to you about anything?”Abel’s eyes lit up as he asked.
