Lord of the Oasis

"Where are we now?" DeWitt asked pantingly to Clemont, looking around at the scenery.

"Gilbert took us a shortcut, we are probably halfway there." Clemont replied looking at the map.

"So fast?" DeWitt was a little surprised.

Clement said helplessly: "In order to keep up with his speed, we also increased our distance a lot."

"Fortunately, under his leadership, we have walked most of the distance today. Otherwise, if he had led us like this, the soldiers' physical strength would not have been able to keep up." DeWitt took a deep breath and said.

"Yes." Clemont nodded: "But I haven't seen Gilbert much since I ordered the rest just now. Where are the others?"

"Probably he went back to stay with Austin Ge." DeWitt speculated.

Sure enough, after a while, Austinger brought Clemont into their sight.

Austinger was helping everyone set up the tent, while Gilbert followed him quietly.

"Go sit under the shade of a tree and rest." Austinger said to Gilbert.

Gilbert shook his head without any emotion in his eyes.

This is the third time Austinger has persuaded him to go back and rest, but all ended in failure.

"Yo!" A tall and strong soldier walked towards the two of them and greeted with a clear expression: "Gilbert."

Gilbert looked up at him and looked away without saying anything.

"My name is Brian. I am the captain of the fifth team in this army." The soldier introduced himself without any discouragement: "You ran very fast today." As he said that, he stretched out his right hand to touch Ji. The top of Burt's head.

Gilbert took a step back, avoiding his gesture. He gave him a cold look.

Brian retracted his hand angrily, smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm sorry, I was the one who offended."

When Austin saw this, he quickly protected Gilbert behind him and smoothed things over with a smile: "Captain Brian, I'm sorry. This little guy is a little too naive. Don't worry about it."

"Of course not." Brian raised his head and said, "I just want to try to get to know him. After all, his performance today was really great."

"Haha." Austin said with a smile: "He will follow us until we return to his hometown. There is no reason for people who meet often not to be familiar with each other."

"You're right, I will often look for opportunities to see him in the future." Brian nodded. After smiling and waving hello to Gilbert, he returned to his team.

"I don't want to know him." A small voice came from behind Austin.

Austinge breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and knelt down and warned Gilbert carefully: "In the human world, whether you like it or not, it is very important to be polite. In the future, when others talk to you, you can't do it like today. Keep a straight face."

"Yes." Gilbert stared at Austin's eyes for a while, then nodded in agreement.

"You're so sensible." A smile appeared on Austin's face again: "If you smile at others, they will smile at you and won't embarrass you. Isn't this good?"

Gilbert pursed his lips and said nothing.

The camp was set up quickly, because Gilbert was running too vigorously while leading the way today, so by the time everyone settled down, it was already very late. In order to prepare dinner, the cook stayed in front of the stove at the back of the camp and did not show up.

There was little smoke, and the soldiers had today's dinner at ten o'clock in the evening.

"It's great that I didn't meet the snake girl this time when I traveled through this plateau." Clemont took a sip of the soup in the bowl and said to Abel.

"What? Are you afraid of them?" Abel asked with a smile.

"It's not that I'm afraid, but when I think of their heads and tails, I get goosebumps on my arms." Clemont kept his arms and said with a twisted expression: "Don't you think so?"

"Huh? I don't think so." Abel shrugged.

said.

"Eh~" Clemont looked at Abel with an incomprehensible expression and said.

Under the care of Austinger, Gilbert sat on the small bed in the tent, eating the porridge from the bowl one bite at a time.

"I won't eat." Gilbert raised his head and said to Austin.

Austin's eyes widened and he said, "Why do you eat so little? Have a few more sips."

"I'm full," Gilbert said, pointing to his bulging belly.

"I don't remember your usual appetite being this small." Austinger asked doubtfully, "Is this vegetable porridge not to your liking? I'll go to the kitchen to see if there's anything else to eat."

As he spoke, Austin stood up, placed the porridge bowl on the table, turned around and walked to the kitchen.

After watching him leave, Gilbert stepped out of bed and put on the shoes that were a few sizes too big given to him by Austin. Slowly walked outside the camp. He avoided the place where the soldiers gathered and climbed out of the fence of the camp.

"Come out." Gilbert stood on the loess-filled plain and shouted into the night.

"呲呲呲——" Something passed through the grass and came closer.

"You killed half of our snake tribe, and you still dare to come here." A cold voice reached Gilbert's ears.

"I killed them because they wanted to kill me." Gilbert said with a normal expression: "The human and elf soldiers in this camp are not easy to mess with. As long as I tell them that the current snake girl clan has been severely weakened, , maybe you can't even defend your hometown. You actually dare to ambush here, preparing for a night attack. Who gave you the courage!"

After the last words were spoken, the spiritual power in Gilbert's body gathered in his palms, and his five fingers suddenly became sharp.

"Stop scaring us." A snake girl said in a sharp voice: "The news that this army is going to the volcano has spread throughout the island. How many pounds they have, do you think we don't know yet?"

"Oh?" Gilbert chuckled after hearing this: "Then what do you mean, do you want to give it a try?"

"Hmph! He is indeed a rebellious goblin bastard." A snake girl sneered, "You speak so arrogantly."

When Gilbert heard the word 'bastard', the corner of his mouth stiffened for a moment. After taking a deep breath, he said to the snake girls: "Anyway, if you want to besiege this place today, you have to get through me first. I advise you to try your best to So you can weigh your weight before coming back."

After seeing the spiritual power surging throughout Gilbert's body, Snake Girl and the others showed a hint of flinch in their expressions.

But as long as the leader didn't say anything, they couldn't retreat.

The snake girl leader narrowed her eyes and said, "You may be the first goblin to protect humans like this."
