Seeing so many fire ants, a few people were already nervous enough. When they saw the menacing Wolf King next to the ant queen, they immediately picked up their weapons.
And the Wolf King's sudden voice that came to everyone's ears scared several people, but Gawain was not among those who were frightened.
Gawain breathed a sigh of relief when he found that the male ants around him didn't dare to act rashly. He stretched out his hand to stop the people behind him, turned around and said, "Don't be nervous, those are Atoris's contracted beasts."
"Contract beast?" Everyone looked at Gawain with doubts, and then Gawain spoke.
Gawain glanced at Artoris sleeping behind the Wolf King, and Gawain immediately understood what the Wolf King meant. He took a step forward and said, "What kind of explanation do you want?" Facing the other party's question, Gawain snorted coldly. The other party just wanted him to explain why he didn't protect Artoris and let her get hurt. That’s all.
To be honest, Gawain certainly doesn't want Atoris to be harmed. He may be able to protect her to the best of his ability when he is by her side, but it is obvious that he cannot always stand by Atoris's side. On the contrary, you, the contracted beast of Artoris, have been missing for more than half a month. The master was injured and did not show up in time. Now you are blaming him. Gawain knew that in the contract space, the Wolf King was able to pay attention to the outside situation, so letting the master get hurt was obviously a dereliction of duty as a contracted beast on his part.
One man and one wolf faced each other, looking like they might draw their swords and crossbows at any time. Although it was unclear what the situation of the Wolf King was, everyone present could see that Gawain and the other party were clearly not dealing with him. It seemed that the people nearby were very anxious, wondering if there was going to be a fight. The white wolf didn't look like it would be easy to deal with.
Although the surrounding fire ants saw the corpse of their queen, and although they were eager to protect the queen, they were oppressed by the wolf king's aura and did not dare to take a step forward. Seeing the two staring at each other, Kaguya was the first to stand up, "Although I don't know what the conflict is between you two, I think now is not the time to dwell on it."
Kaguya was right. Gawain turned his attention to Artoris who was lying behind the Wolf King. Judging from the look on the Wolf King's face, Artoris must have been seriously injured.
"She's fine, she just collapsed from exhaustion." Speaking of Artolis, the Wolf King's words gradually became gentler. This also made others feel relieved. After all, except for Gawain, no one present had ever heard of the contract beast Artoris. If the other party had a bad attitude and they were attacked, who should they talk to for explanation?
"Even so, I still want to treat her first." Kaguya explained to the Wolf King.
The Wolf King did not answer directly. In this case, Kaguya considered the other party's acquiescence.
At the moment, it seems that the other party only has grudges against Gawain. Although they are a little unclear, a few people still understand the overall situation. As she got closer, seeing that the Wolf King had no intention of attacking, Kaguya felt relieved and walked towards the direction of Artoris.
"It's nothing serious." After checking for a while, Kaguya found that Atoris's condition was indeed the same as what the Wolf King said, she was just overtired. This should be some kind of connection between the contracted beast and its master. Kaguya took a deep breath, then raised her dagger and released the "Prayer of Holy Light" at Artoris.
This is a healing spell in which the Divine can cast Prayer of Light to heal a single target. The effect is almost the same as eating barbecue directly. Of course, if it is performed by a divine benefactor, there is no need to eat in this state.
Seeing that Atoris' complexion improved, the worried people on the side were able to relax and pay attention to the situation in front of them.
"I didn't expect that Artolis would have such a domineering contracted beast." Lancelot watched with admiration mixed with envy as the Wolf King simply suppressed a group of fire ants from coming forward.
"Actually, I'm still curious about how that guy got rid of the ant queen." Geraint looked at the ant queen's body and touched his chin.
"Sister Liz is amazing, you don't know her..."
Looking at the few people on the side who not only did not help but also made trouble, Kaguya, who was treating Artoris, said angrily: "You guys, please stop talking about whether these things are available or not, help me take a look at this queen ant, absorb it With so many corpses of creatures, her body must be full of treasures. If you have time to chat, why not help look for them!"
"..." After being scolded by Kaguya, the three of them immediately shut their mouths. Looking at the pile of white meat on the side, the three of them shuddered. Although they also thought that what Kaguya said was okay, the ant queen in front of them was a bit too disgusting.
Geraint kicked it with his feet and watched a stream of milky white liquid flow out of the hole on the queen's back, which made him extremely nauseous. Use four words to describe it: daunting!
"Forget it, if you don't cooperate, I'll look for it myself later. But if it were me, all the treasures I find would belong to me!" Kaguya said calmly.
Are you serious? After listening to Kaguya's words, Gawain held his forehead, this girl really knows how to make small calculations. He took a step forward and said: "If you can find a treasure in this thing's body, that is also a kind of strength." Gao Wenxian didn't join in their conversation because he was panicking, it was because what Kaguya wanted to do was really too much. It was disgusting. It was hard for him to imagine that such words could come from a girl!
"Okay, then go find her after I finish the treatment." Unexpectedly, Kaguya nodded and replied calmly.
"Huh?" The Wolf King here also turned his head, staring at the girl in front of him with his deep eyes, as if you were joking.
"Shh~" Kaguya gestured to signal the others to be quiet.
"Okay, the treatment is almost done. She will be fine when she wakes up on her own." As the fluorescence surrounding Artoris dissipated, Kaguya clapped her hands, stood up, and said to several people: " What's so disgusting is that it's just the corpse of a queen ant."
As she spoke, Kaguya walked up to the ant queen's body. A purple-gold light flashed across her body, and in an instant, a two-meter-long gash was torn open in the ant queen's body.
"Take her back first. How can you let a girl sleep on the ground? Don't worry about me. Other fire ants can't detect my trace in the queen's body." Facing the crack, Kaguya nodded. He said without replying.
Seeing that Kaguya really wanted to go inside, Geraint helplessly pulled the two people beside him and said: "It's getting late, so let's go back first. The queen ant is dead, and this commission Even if it’s completed! I’ll go back and submit the commission, then break down the results and give you an explanation tomorrow.”
"Well, let's do this for now. Xilu, you go back to the city first, and then pick up Artolis on the other side." Gawain nodded and walked to Artolis, grabbing her. His hand crushed the Return to the City Pearl.
While seeing Gawain's actions, Xilu hurriedly started to return to the city after a meal. The mission assigned by Brother Wen had to be taken seriously.
"See you all tomorrow!" Lancelot waved his hand, and then followed Xilu to crush the Return to City Pearl.
As Artoris was teleported back to the city, the Contracted Beast Wolf King was also teleported back. After several bursts of white light, only one person was left standing in the open space.
"Why didn't you leave?" Kaguya also noticed Gawain who didn't leave immediately and felt strange.
"I should be the one to say this!" Gawain stared at the girl in front of him and said every word.
"Don't tell me that you don't know that male ants don't rely on their sense of smell to search for targets, right..."
