Chapter 27: 27. Talking game

Views:

Lu Cheng looked at the scene at the port through the scope of his rifle, and his hand holding the gun was shaking slightly, which was unusual.

Princess Elena is estimated to be only 1.69 meters tall, and at most 1.7 meters tall, while her brother Prince Kanser is definitely over 1.8 meters tall and is a strong man with a sturdy physique.

The sturdy man was wearing a heavy suit of armor. Lu Cheng estimated that the armor was definitely heavier than his tactical backpack.

The princess used just a simple punch to knock a sturdy man in heavy armor nearly three meters away.

"Is this scientific?" Feng Kite said what Lu Cheng was thinking. "Captain, I saw that guy bounced a bit when he was knocked to the ground."

Lu Cheng didn't quite understand whether Kite meant that it was unscientific for a girl to knock the heavily armored knight away with one punch, or whether it was unscientific for the heavily armored knight to bounce on the ground after being knocked away.

but…

"There is magic in this world, and it's hard to explain with common sense," Lu Cheng said.

"This isn't something a magician can do, is it? No matter how you look at it, this is the kind of lethality that can only be inflicted by moves like the King Kong Fist," replied Feng Kite.

"Stop it, now is not the time to argue with me."

Lu Cheng didn't understand why the sniper was talking so much, but Lu Cheng directly turned on the radio and ordered the iron ring and pictorial outside the city to drive two off-road vehicles in.

The situation at the port not far away changed again. The deterrent effect caused by Elena's punch was so great that the refugees who were preparing to line up to board the ship went into a state of panic.

These refugees had no idea what was happening at the front of the team. They only saw Elena suddenly appear and knock to the ground the kind-hearted Prince Kanser who was about to rescue them.

In addition, the surrounding soldiers were indifferent to Elena's actions, so the refugees might think that someone from the royal army had stepped forward to prohibit them from leaving.

"Soldiers! Go and maintain order!"

Hubert saw that the order of the refugee team was beginning to fall into chaos, and immediately gave orders to the soldiers under Prince Kanser.

"General, do you want us to disperse them?"

Some of Kanser's soldiers were unsure of what the old general's orders were.

It was already guilt-ridden enough that they had fled to a neighboring country without telling their country, and they were discovered by Skarre's most famous general while fleeing... This was almost as terrifying as being discovered by the dean of studies when they were cheating.

"Disperse them... Let them continue to line up to board the ship. It is our incompetence that we failed to protect them."

General Hubert's voice was full of powerlessness.

This may be the most helpless and helpless moment for a soldier or a general.

No matter what, General Hubert had to admit that he could not protect these refugees from the threat of the blood crystal beast. In this case, if they wanted to seek refuge in neighboring countries, General Hubert was powerless to stop them.

"Yes, sir."

The soldiers obeyed General Hubert's orders and continued to guide the refugees to line up and board the ship.

The original panic gradually subsided, and in less than an hour, all the surviving refugees in Huiri City boarded Prince Kanser's wooden boat.

As for the residents rescued in Crescent Moon Town, after Lu Cheng explained the situation to them, they all chose to board Prince Kanser's ship to seek refuge in a neighboring country.

On one side is the royal capital where the blood crystal beasts gather, and on the other side is the safe neighboring country. In order to survive, they can only make this decision.

When Lu Cheng was watching the refugees boarding the boat, the little girl among the refugees ran to Lu Cheng before leaving.

"Thank you..."

She held up a bunch of flowers that she had picked from somewhere and wanted to give it to Lu Cheng.

"You have to live well."

After Lu Cheng half-knelt down and took the flowers from her hand, she nodded as if she understood and ran onto the wooden boat with her mother.

The unconscious Prince Kanser was also helped onto the wooden boat, and the sails of the wooden boat were raised again, but two of the guards who followed Prince Kanser were left at the port.

"Aren't you going to leave with him?"

General Hubert asked the two soldiers.

"General, we have completed our mission of escorting Prince Kanser. Now that the blood crystal beasts are wreaking havoc in our country, there must be a place where we are needed." The soldier straightened his back and said to General Hubert.

General Hubert was stunned for a moment after hearing the young man's answer. When he was about to say something, Prince Kanser's shouting suddenly came from the wooden boat.

"Teacher Hubert! I did nothing wrong!"

Prince Kanser had come to his senses, or rather, he had been completely stunned by Elena's punch.

The first thing he did when he woke up was to run to the side of the ship and yell at General Hubert who was standing on the harbor.

"No one in this country can defeat the blood crystal beasts! Those monsters will eat everyone here sooner or later! You are just waiting to die if you stay here! You can only survive if you escape from this damn place!"

Prince Kanser came to the side of the ship and shouted at the top of his lungs, but General Hubert did not refute him, and no one refuted him.

Perhaps Prince Kanser's decision was the right one in this case.

"Is this the first knight in your country?" Lu Cheng came to the side of Princess Elena and asked.

"My brother did nothing wrong." Elena stood at the harbor and watched the wooden boat sail away. She looked at the sails raised and said in a low voice, "I feel like I am of no use at all. At least he saved the refugees in this city, but I can't do anything."

"Useless? I don't think so." Lu Cheng patted the princess on the shoulder and said, "You are lucky to have met us."

"Luck..." Elena wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and took a while to cheer herself up again. "I remember my mother also told me that luck is also a part of personal ability."

After Lu Cheng comforted the princess, he looked around the port. Lu Cheng soon saw a strange animal at the boarding area of the port.

"Wait! Wait! I haven't gotten on the boat yet! I haven't gotten on the boat yet!"

It was an animal that looked like a groundhog, no, it was a groundhog, and it was chasing the wooden boat along the edge of the harbor.

Unfortunately, with its short arms and legs, it was impossible for it to catch up with the wooden boat going downstream.

But what Lu Cheng cares about most is... this groundhog can speak human language, although it is the language of this world.

After Lu Cheng saw the groundhog, he and Feng Zheng looked at each other. Maybe they had seen too many strange things in this world, and suddenly a talking groundhog appeared. Feng Zheng didn't want to sigh about anything.

“Stop!”

The groundhog ran all the way to the shore in front of Lu Cheng. Perhaps because it was too fat, it couldn't run anymore after running such a short distance.

It stood up on its legs, raised its front paws, clenched its fists, and shouted loudly at the receding wooden boat.

After shouting, the groundhog was completely exhausted and sat down on the ground, gasping for breath.

But it was very sensitive to the gaze coming from behind.

The groundhog turned around and saw Lu Cheng and his group.

"Have you never seen a human whose consciousness is attached to an animal?"

The groundhog raised its little paws again to protest against Lu Cheng.

"Feng Kite, catch it." Lu Cheng gave the order directly.

"receive!"

The moment the order was given, Lu Cheng and Feng Kite moved together and ran towards the groundhog. The groundhog instantly sensed the danger and immediately ran towards the ruins with its short legs.
