The Emperor's Daily Nitpicking

In addition to a group of fifteen orc-like giant beastmen, Oswald also brought over thirty Ugin Iron Cavalrymen and a medical officer, filling up such a place at once.

"Are we on the ground or underground?" Nick glanced outside the door and couldn't help asking.

It’s no wonder that he had such doubts, anyone who turns around in this kind of place will be confused by the scene here——

There are plump and bright-leafed plants and trees everywhere here, some are straight and tall, with canopy pavilions;Canes as thick as a baby's arm meandered on the ground, climbing all the way along the cavernous house, hanging a few twigs from the wall.

There are trees, fruits and houses, plus the lighting hanging around, if you are not careful, you will give people the illusion of being in a dense forest on the ground.

"It doesn't look like the ground anymore. When I hovered just now, I flapped my wings to the top several times." Dan grabbed a few red fruits by the wall, wiped them carelessly, and asked Kevin: "Is this stuff edible? It looks quite delicious, will I die if I take a bite?"

Kevin waved his hand: "That's not going to happen."

When Dan heard the word "no", he recklessly stuffed the red fruit into his mouth and took a bite, chewing "Kacha Kacha", and said vaguely in his mouth: "Oh, it's quite crunchy, a little sweet ,tasty."

"I have one more but I haven't finished it..." Kevin said helplessly, "Why are you talking so fast?"

"But? But what?" Dan paused, looked down at the red fruit left in his hand, and felt that there would be no good words behind.

Kevin let out an "oh" and said, "But this place is underground after all, there is no sunlight, only fertilizer, and this fertilizer..."

No matter how thrilling and exciting the tomb of the gods is, it is still a cemetery. The plants around the cemetery bear fruit, so what else can absorb the fertilizer?

Dan turned slightly, his face turned green.

"Uh——" he hugged the pillar at the door and spat out the fruit in his mouth, and rushed to Oswald who was not far away with a weak face: "Where is the emperor? Can the emperor control your commander? How can he So good at talking? Ugh—”

The two-meter-tall strong man, who was made weak by Kevin's terrified words, clutched his stomach and wanted to go into the cave to find a medical officer for a while.

Oswald was instructing Ugin's cavalry to clean up the corpses of the dryads. He turned his head, glanced at Kevin, and snorted coldly, "My commander? Your Excellency Fassbender has been thinking about rebelling all day long, and he doesn't want to rebel at all." Knowing how to write the word emperor, I can't control him."

In front of so many people, Kevin still knew that the emperor couldn't beat him. He waved his hands in a face-saving way and said, "You can control it, I won't talk about it. Go ahead and eat, most of it is already in, and you can't spit it out." It doesn’t matter, just don’t think about it so much.”

Dan: "..."

He didn't want to chat with this little boy commander anymore, so he turned his head and was about to enter the cave, but with a "bang", his forehead just hit the top of the door, causing him to grin his teeth in pain.

"Is this fucking dwarf country?!" He spat fiercely.

The kitchen cave, which was used to detain Kevin and the others before, is now crowded with more people, and the medical officer is giving medicine to all the wounded people in it.Most of the people, such as the elite team who followed Kevin, had mostly scratches on their bodies, and some were bloody nests pricked by the burrs of vines.These wounds were nothing, and the medical officer handled them with ease.What is more troublesome is the bumps and injuries on individual people.

Those places that had been impacted turned red at first, and then gradually hardened, turning into a sandy texture.For this, the doctor has nothing to do.

So when Dan's head knocked on the top of the door and made the earth-shattering sound, not only Kevin and Oswald outside the house looked over, but even the medical officer and the generals who were drying the medicine in the house also looked at him. looked over.

Almost everyone's eyes were written: "It's over, the impact may be so hard that the whole head may be lost."

Unexpectedly, Dan rubbed the red mark on his forehead, then walked into the cave as if nothing had happened, yelling so loudly that everyone outside could clearly hear: "Medical officer, I want to vomit."

Kevin turned his head and looked at Oswald for a moment. Without further ado, the two strided into the cave one after the other.

"Why are you all staring at me? You're in a panic..." As soon as Dan entered the door, he was forced to sit on the ground by the medical officer, and was watched by a whole room of people. Standing on either side of him, bent over and staring at his forehead.

His forehead was painted black and glossy, and the original skin color could not be seen at all, and naturally it was impossible to see whether there was any sand petrification.

After thinking about it, Kevin wanted to touch it with his hands to see if the skin had hardened, but before he touched Dan's forehead, Oswald blocked it.

Oswald slapped his hand away, "tsk", and said, "What are you messing with? You know better than the medical officer?"

While speaking, the medical officer had already touched Dan's forehead.

After a while, the medical officer was a little surprised and said: "There is really no sand petrification."

Dan patted his head in bewilderment: "What is sand?"

"Not at all?" asked Oswald.

The medical officer shook his head: "To be precise, there is no change at all. I can feel that this piece of skin is slightly different from the rest of the face. It is a little harder, a bit like a thin layer of callus. , but it is still far from sand petrification.”

"Dan, how many insect bites do you have in your family?" Kevin asked.

Dan nodded: "A lot! The sea is gone! We are easy to attract bugs, and almost everyone is chased and bitten every day. Otherwise, why should I paint it like this, it looks so good?"

"Then has there ever been a situation where it hits and is as hard as a rock?" The medical officer couldn't help asking.

Dan thought for a while, then patted his thigh and said: "Oh! So I suddenly remembered one. It was an old man who lived near me. When he was fetching water last time, he fell in the valley and rolled several times. After I came back, it was said that I couldn’t move anymore, so I just lay there, and I passed by and took a look.”

"Has his skin changed into this?" An officer pointed to the side of his arm.

Dan stared at the grey-yellow skin made of gravel, stretched out his hand and pinched it again, and said, "Yes, it's that hard! As for the color of the skin...we've all painted it like this, so it can't be seen."

Everyone stared at his black face for a while, then silently turned their heads: Blind.

Dan stretched out his hand to press his forehead again, and said: "So what you mean by sand petrification, then I understand. It seems that there is only one person in our family who has that kind of situation. We thought it was because he was old and fell. It’s disabled. But there are quite a few that are a little hardened like my forehead, except that it grows near the joints, and the skin is a little bit scratchy when moving, but it doesn’t have much impact.”

Oswald frowned and said, "Then you told Xiao that it's not convenient for your current leader to come out?"

Dan said: "He is kissed the most by bugs! His face is swollen, and his knees are swollen too much to move. Of course, it is not convenient to go out."

Oswald: "..."

"Your Majesty, can we..." the medical officer said, looking at Dan hesitantly.

At this moment, the few brain cells of the giant orcs suddenly became active, and Dan suddenly said, "Do you want to see why we haven't been petrified like you?"

The medical officer nodded again and again: "There are too many people with sandstones here, and the area of ​​sandstones will spread a little every day. If there is no progress, the consequences will be disastrous."

When Kevin heard this sentence, he suddenly remembered the row of stone statues standing on the wall in the corner of the kitchen.

"Wait—" he said to the people leaning against the stone statue, "Can you turn the stone statues behind you around, I want to see their faces."

His sudden words just made everyone in the room feel a little creepy for no reason.

Those generals were stunned for a moment, then got up one after another, turned the row of stone statues around, and faced the crowd.

This place is located in the area of ​​the tomb of God Phae. As we all know, all kinds of stone carvings can be seen everywhere in places related to gods, whether it is temples or altars.There are statues of gods, statues of people worshiping, and statues of beasts with symbolic meanings...

So when everyone first saw the row of stone statues piled up in the corner, they didn't think much at all. They all thought that the dryads had moved back from the tomb of Faer God or from the door. As for what they moved back for, who knows?

But now, the yellowish light of the worm sacs shone on the faces of the stone statues, and the frozen expressions of those stone statues suddenly became a little alive.Terrified, dazed, dazed... Everyone's heart skipped a beat when they saw it.

Because it's so realistic...

It's so realistic that it doesn't look like it's carved.

"I mentioned to Nick before that someone should have broken into this place before us. You can see that the swords scattered on the ground outside are completely inconsistent with the style here. They should be unloaded from the captives by those dryads. Part of it comes from us, and the other part..." Kevin paused in a timely manner, and his eyes fell on the stone statues.

"You mean, these stone statues are the first batch of captives they captured?" Oswald whispered.

Kevin nodded: "It's just because of the bumps and bumps that turned into sand and petrification, and each place spread a little bit more, and it finally became like this."

Dan's big white eyes stared at the row of stone statues for a few seconds, his whole body trembled.He straightened his expression, and said to Oswald: "Don't you want to find a way on us? Make arrangements, and I will pick someone to deliver the letter back to the palace for you."

Why are giant orcs not easy to sand and petrify?Is it because they are too big, and what works on the Ona tribe doesn't work on them?Or is it because of blood or something else?

If it is the former, then there is nothing to do, after all, body shape cannot be changed overnight.But if it's the latter, maybe you can try some means?

In any case, this is also a progress, and everyone's mood suddenly improved.

The kitchen cave was crowded by the wounded. Oswald and Kevin came out of it without staying long. By the way, they asked someone to move out the row of stone statues. On the one hand, they could carefully check their origins. Also can make room.

Oswald touched the cowhide bag on his waist, and found that he didn't bring any extra letter paper, so he turned to Kevin and said, "Write a letter to the medical officer's hospital, just say—"

Halfway through his speech, he remembered Kevin's astonishing painting skills, swallowed the rest of the words, and directly raised his hand to pick off the bag on Kevin's waist.

Kevin froze for a moment, crossed his arms and said in a hesitant manner, "...Are you a little too self-conscious?"

Oswald took out a pen and paper, and didn't find a place to put the paper. He just wrote the content in such a frenzied manner, and sneered without turning his head while writing: "Do you need me to tell you about imperial power? According to the code, Everything on you is mine, including yourself, I can take whatever I want, do you have any opinions?"

Kevin snorted: "Yes."

Oswald: "Shut up."
