The Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 743: An impromptu invitation

Views:

The soldiers of Calradia quickly stood in line under the sharpening of daily training.

Gilbert turned around and glanced at the soldiers, and found that everyone's eyes were also neatly focused on him.

"You can promise us to run slower." Abel patted his shoulder and said.

"Hmm." Gilbert finally figured out why everyone was staring at him. Said to everyone: "Ready to go."

After the words fell, Gilbert stepped out, lowered his upper body, checked the situation on the ground as he moved forward, and bypassed all the poison bombs planted by the snake women one by one.

The speed has slowed down a lot compared to yesterday. The soldiers trotted after him.

"Today is much easier than yesterday." A soldier said happily while running.

"It's all because your physical strength is so weak that you almost couldn't keep up. Gilbert slowed down to match you." A soldier said with a bit of complaint in his tone.

"Do you know what we call maintaining physical strength? Isn't the work of setting up the camp tiring?" The soldier retorted, "You think everyone is born with a lot of strength like you, a stupid big pillar."

"It's so boring now." The taller soldier said dejectedly.

Seeing his appearance, the soldiers on the side leaned into his ear and said, "I have an idea. When you are resting tonight, you can go to that goblin to compete and see who is the best of you. It's not like It's much more fun for you to run after him? You don't have to drag everyone down."

The soldier's eyes lit up when he heard what he said, and he said, "Okay. But I'm not very familiar with that little guy, can you please help me get in touch?"

"Why do you have so many personnel matters?" The soldier who made the suggestion said disgustedly: "Okay, help you get it together, but don't leave it here for me to wander around like today when I am marching in the future."

"Okay." The soldier said happily.

"By the way, what's your name? We need to have a name when we go to the battle post." The thinner soldier asked.

"Jeb, a recruit who joined the army a year ago." Gao Dazhuang replied.

"Yo, then I'm your senior. I've been in Dherim's barracks for three years." The soldier was a little surprised and said, "My name is Levin. Just now I heard from the brother next to you that you are a natural born of?"

"Yes, he was heavier than normal when he was born, and he has a big frame," Jeb said.

"Why do you want to be a soldier?" Anyway, on the way, he had nothing to do. Levin took the initiative to talk to Jeb and chatted.

"My father originally planned to let me take over the family's field and help with the work." Jeb thought for a while and explained: "But after I hoeed several hoes, my father suggested that I should be a soldier. was recruited."

"So that's the case." Levin stared at him with wide-eyed eyes, and answered after a while.

The two then chatted about the situation at home, and the boring march became more energetic.

At noon, Abel glanced at the sun hanging high in the sky. It is quite common to see the sun on the plateau. After running with Gilbert for several hours, sweat was already breaking out on his forehead.

Glancing at the compass in his hand, Abel stopped Gilbert: "Gilbert, stop."

"Yeah." Gilbert stopped and looked back at Abel.

"It's already noon now, find a place for the soldiers to rest for a while." Abel explained.

"Okay." Gilbert looked around, and then walked towards a shaded area.

"Everyone stop and rest." After seeing Gilbert finally stop, Abel ordered all the soldiers.

"There are no poison bombs in this area." A leisurely sentence floated into Abel's ears. Abel watched as Gilbert brushed his arm and walked over.

"Understood." Abel replied to Gilbert's back.

Gilbert searched for Austin's figure among the armored soldiers. After successfully finding Austin, a smile appeared on Gilbert's face.

"I want to drink water."

Austin watched as a short figure leaped in front of him.

There was a pause in the movement of lifting the water bottle to his lips.

After seeing Gilbert's face clearly, he bent down and handed the water bottle to Gilbert's hand.

Gilbert raised the water bottle and drank it 'gudong gudong'.

"Thirsty?" Austin asked looking at him.

Gilbert shook his head. I silently thought in my heart: Since I spent more and more time with the human race, my eating habits have become similar.

When Abel told him to stop just now, he felt his body calling: water, water!

Don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.

"Here you are." Gilbert handed back the half-empty water bottle to Austin.

"Drinking more water is a good thing, and you won't be constipated." Austin said with a smile, touching Gilbert's head.

Gilbert glanced at him, but didn't answer.

From the moment Gilbert returned to Austin, their actions fell into the eyes of Levin and Jeb.

"Hi!" Levine greeted Austin after walking in.

Austin quickly swallowed the water in his mouth, and responded: "Hello, Captain Levin."

When Levine was training in the barracks in Dherim, he once took Austin, who had just joined the army, and although he didn't have much contact after that, the two were still familiar with each other.

Because Levin is a senior who has taken care of him, even after being promoted, Austin still maintains respect for Levin. And call him 'Captain'.

"This comrade-in-arms has something to do with your 'son'. Can you give them a chance to communicate." Recently, there has been a lot of news about Gilbert in the military. Even if Levin didn't discuss it with everyone, he would I have heard a lot. In his eyes: if he wanted to talk to Gilbert, he still had to use Austin as a breakthrough. Otherwise, this little guy won't care what you say at all.

So from the beginning, he came here with the purpose of making Austiner let go.

"This..." Austin made a troubled expression.

To Levin's surprise, Austin hesitated. In his impression: Austiner will almost immediately agree to the requests of seniors or superiors.

Seeing Austiner hesitate to speak, Levin quickly added: "Jeb has always liked Gilbert, and it's really no big deal to find him."

"This..." Austin raised his eyes and looked at the sturdy soldier standing next to Levin, nodding hurriedly. After looking at Gilbert, he said, "Okay."
