Under Ashe's arrangement and leadership, Chopper happily dragged the two horses unloaded from the carriage into the kitchen and completed the preliminary slaughtering before Goron arrived to deal with these guys. Gron, who took Ashe's scattered clothes on the ground and put them on again, woke up the Baron who had just been knocked unconscious by him.
After being healed by the shaman's secondary healing wave, Baron Kulahan has returned to normal. Not only is the fracture of his neck bone caused by Goron's slap, but also the hallucinogen administered by Ashe. Invalid.
Baron Kulahan regained consciousness but remained silent. He huddled in the corner with his head in his hands, seemingly choking and sobbing, and seemed to dare not look at the beautiful young man standing aside. Goron was really impatient with waiting, so he had to take the initiative to walk towards him. But before Goron could say anything, Kula Khan took the first step and asked: "Gloria, you... will you blame me?" ?”
"Blame you?" Goron was stunned, but he immediately realized that Kula Khan probably thought that the person he wanted to strangle to death was himself. In this case, Goron didn't mind if he continued to maintain this misunderstanding.
"There's nothing to blame. Killing one or two civilians on a whim is normal for you nobles. But I also have the right to choose life, so if you still want to continue to hurt Me, unless you can show the power that can definitely kill me, I will definitely continue to resist."
When talking about this topic, Kulahan immediately remembered a more important thing: "Just now... how were you saved? I felt like someone hit me from behind. No, it was not a human being. How could a human be so strong?" I almost felt like my neck was broken."
That was not an illusion, your neck was indeed broken at one point. It's me who cured you. Of course Goron would not tell these facts, he could only whisper secretly. But he rolled his eyes and continued the lie: "Yes, that's not a human, but the one-eyed ogre you brought here with me. He woke up and broke out of your dungeon on his own. Fortunately, he still remembered me and even regarded me as a companion, so I survived. "
"Ogre!" This term has a strong enough deterrent effect no matter where it is placed. Kula Khan thought that he had survived from the clutches of an ogre, and even the Baron, who was ready to commit suicide, felt lingering fear. Although there are still many questions in his mind, such as how his dungeon could be broken through so easily, there is only one thing left that he wants to know most now...
"So, where is that monster now?"
Gronn pouted toward the window, and there just happened to be a sound of horses struggling and neighing and the honest giggles of the ogres coming from outside. In fact, these sounds have never stopped at this moment, but the Baron, who was not thinking about it at all, didn't pay attention to it at all.
"I'm sorry, it seems that you can only go out on foot in the future, but. 'Sir,' you should feel lucky, because this is better than him dragging you to the kitchen. I spent a lot of energy to stop him from doing this. "Gron spread his hands with a malicious smile on his face. Speaking of Chopper. He had a feeling of being in a good mood, and suddenly felt that wasting time with Kula Khan was really boring, so he didn't bother to beat around the bush. After chatting with this guy, he bluntly presented his prepared remarks.
"I already know. Someone wants to take me away from you, but what does it matter. Can't you think of another way to get me back? Don't interrupt me in a hurry and continue to listen to me... "Gron stretched out his hand to cover Kula Khan's mouth, who seemed to want to retort, and forced to continue: "If my guess is correct, if you just killed me, then you will also be in great trouble, or even You are actually ready to face death, am I right?"
Kula Khan nodded numbly, as if he wanted to take the opportunity to confess something to Goron, but Goron would never give him a chance to continue to disgust himself, so he interrupted him arrogantly: "Since you are not even afraid of death, Are you still afraid of those guys who are nothing special? I know that they have strong power in the empire, but even in Montenegro, in this imperial capital, they should have some enemies, right
Goron did not continue, because even he himself did not know the content behind this "for example". His understanding of this Black Mountain city was limited to the stories he heard and the limited intelligence brought by Ai Xi. He didn't even know who the big shots were who had his own ideas, so how could he possibly know the enemies who could fight them? .
The reason why Goron wanted to talk so much to Kula Khan was to confuse the situation and make it more chaotic. Only then would he have the opportunity to achieve his goal, rescue the giant demon Rafana, and get out of here safely. Although Kula Khan is only a small nobleman with limited energy, his madness has been confirmed, and it seems to be easier to use and control. And Gronn is now trying to make this useless baron play some more Use value.
Sure enough, under Goron's gradual temptation, Kula Khan's eyes were confused for a while, and then as if he had thought of some good idea, hope rekindled in his eyes, but immediately the light of hope turned into Fear, it seems that he has thought about the consequences of doing this. It is not just a simple matter that can be solved by his death, but even the family behind him that has been passed down for hundreds of years will be destroyed. His huge The heads of the family members, ranging from the elderly to the young, will be beheaded by the executioner family. Young women and underage children will be turned into slaves. Compared with beheading, that fate cannot be said to be any better.
But the bond of family members can only make Kulahan hesitate for a moment. Will a guy who is selfish by nature, but is not afraid of death for his sweetheart, give up some of what he has seen for the sake of his family? A ray of hope? So when Kula Khan's eyes turned to Goron's flawless face again, the doubts and struggles in his eyes disappeared instantly.
"Huh, you're right. Even if the Skull and Bones Society can cover the sky with one hand in Montenegro. Even if those adults can crush me to death with a little finger, I'm not even afraid of death. Are there any other consequences that I'm afraid of? Yes, those Bastards who only know how to reach out to me and ask for money. Cowards who are always arrogant in front of me and only add insult to injury at critical moments. But Montenegro also has power that the Skull and Bones Society cannot control. I came to Montenegro, hehehe... When I was at Low Tide Port, I saw that bitch from the Survey Corps secretly investigating them. On a whim, I also sent some people to check their details, and the result let me know about that group of despicable people. The clowns are actually quite extraordinary. There may even be strong men at the level of fifth-order war kings. They seem to have easily wiped out a powerful ogre village before our survey corps was stationed. And I heard that as long as they can afford it, they can do it. Dare to take on any task..."
Goron could no longer hear what Kula Khan said later. "Fairy Fairy Circus"... This name buzzed in Goron's ears. He really didn't expect to hear that familiar name here again. The one that changed his life and made him wake up from nightmares countless nights. Wake up name.
"... And Count Amanda, maybe he will also be on my side... No, Gloria's existence must not be known to him, otherwise I... By the way, aren't there rebels? That bastard in Bahrain seemed to have mentioned that those The damn rebels have extended their tentacles into Montenegro. If we can contact them... Assassination? No, no... Or rescue..." Kula Khan was still mumbling, with a look of fanaticism and ferociousness on his face, his face twisted and twitching. All kinds of evil thoughts that he would never even think about popped out of his mind one by one. So he didn't notice anything strange about Goron. At this time, the ogre boy said nothing and stared straight ahead. The expression on his face could not tell whether he was happy or angry, sad or happy.
The two of them were just immersed in their own world. For a moment, no one spoke. It wasn't until Chopper's earth-shattering shout came from outside that Goron stood up in confusion. Leaving behind Kula Khan who kept talking to himself whether he was crazy or stupid, he left the room alone and walked towards the anxiously waiting ogre. Then he was pulled and dragged in by the fat man who was shouting and jumping. kitchen.
As soon as he entered the spacious room, Goron suddenly felt a sense of nostalgia, as if he had returned to the familiar cave where he worked in the Black Hand tribe. The kitchen in this luxury villa is certainly not Ogre style, in fact, the place is clean and bright. Of course, this was the impression this kitchen once gave people. After Kula Khan sold off all the maids and servants, Ashe took care of it. Although it was still clean and tidy, it had become very deserted. Many pots and stoves are clearly no longer in use.
The reason why Goron feels nostalgic here is because the two horses were cut into pieces, large pieces of horse meat, heads, legs, and yellow and green internal organs were thrown everywhere, and blood and even The spray splashed onto the roof, and the whole kitchen was in a mess and terrifying like hell. Ai Xi stood there dumbfounded, with steaming blood all over his head and face. He looked like he had just been transformed. Like a young girl after being ravaged by a murderer.
Chopper, who was about to faint from hunger, apparently tore these two valuable, fat and strong white-haired horses alive with his bare hands. In the past, when Goron was lazy or too busy, he would ask these guys to help pack up the ingredients. However, the ogre's cave was not a human kitchen after all, so the shocking effect was far less than it was now.
This familiar scene immediately made Goron recall his daily life again, and it also made his gloomy and bad mood instantly recover a lot. Goron first sent the frightened Ashe out of the kitchen and asked him to freshen up and tidy up on his own. Then he showed off his skills under Chopper's expectant gaze. He skinned the horse's legs neatly and put them directly on the grill. He cleaned the large pieces of fresh offal and threw them into a large pot to stew, and sprinkled with spices. Seasoning, frying horse steaks, making horse belly tender meat into stew...Gron was busy in a hurry. His movements were so fast that he almost pulled out the afterimage. From time to time, he sprayed one or two mouthfuls of three-flavored real fire in his mouth to increase the intensity of the fire. , Goron alone actually made the kitchen hot again. I could only hear the clattering of pots and pans from time to time. The hot steam came out from the cracks in the door and windows. Soon after, the tangy meat The fragrance spread out, immediately restoring the somewhat lifeless villa to its former glory.
Ashe, who had packed herself up in a hurry during this period, poked her head in through the crack in the door. She seemed a little worried that the terrifying giant monster would tear his master Gron to pieces on a whim. The bloody scene just now was obviously... A shadow was left in his heart. He finally felt relieved when he saw the big guy squatting in the corner, drooling and wagging his fingers, but not daring to go up and disturb Goron.
While Ashe marveled at how honest this guy had become, he also marveled at how Gronn had trained this terrifying ogre to be so obedient. However, his attention soon turned to the delicious food. The horse legs on the grill were supposed to be roasted for several hours before they could be eaten, but I don’t know what method Goron used. In this moment, they turned golden, with large drops of golden fat accompanied by a sizzling sound. Rolling around on the skin of the ham, the last drops fell onto the fire, making the flames resemble dancing golden snakes. I don’t know how the horse offal soup stewed in the big pot was seasoned, but it gave off a heart-wrenching aroma. The generous portion of the horse steak dish has been seasoned and placed on the largest plate, with a green vanilla leaf even garnished on it. The most incredible thing is that Goron finished it in an instant, enough for twenty While cooking food for human consumption, I actually had time to tidy up the kitchen. Except for the blood stains remaining in a few places, there was no trace of a "slaughterhouse" at all...
If what Ai Xi felt just now was fear, then now he was shocked by the nakedness. Ai Xi, the master of Goron, the black city, had only come into contact with him once before, and including this time it was with Ku The identity of Lahan's plaything appeared in front of him, so to be honest, Ashe felt grateful, loving, and intimate towards Gron, but it was really not awe and worship.
But at this moment, when he saw the terrifying one-eyed monster in front of Goron, he was as obedient as a puppy wagging its tail begging for food. When he saw that Goron, with only one person's power, in just ten minutes, When a dozen people worked hard for hours to prepare a dish that might not come out, Ai Xi truly felt that his new master must have hidden some secrets that no one knew about, some terrible secrets.
