Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland.

Chapter 448 Princess... (Complete Chapter)

So Pompeo rushed to the hall built with a bamboo and wooden platform.

However, he fully expected that what would greet him would be a grand banquet, songs and dances with swamp folk customs, compliments from big and small bosses, and cordial greetings from the owner of Shark Village...

actually seen.

But it's all leftovers.

The hall is full of dancing skeleton employees who were recruited after the casino closed. However, they are not serving food, but helping to clean up. The waiters move quickly in twos and threes, but the atmosphere is not very serious. They are talking and laughing with each other.

"Give way." Arin bumped into the Shaq man and frowned, "Have a good rest and don't block the road."

Pompeo subconsciously raised his legs.

With a swishing sound, Alin swept away a fish bone he had stepped on.

Then he took the broom and went to another area.

The back of the dress that she had carefully changed was soaked unconsciously.

The status can be said to be quite important.

However, Pompeo had not yet seen any red elements.

The Red King obviously didn't look at him. As soon as they met, he overpowered him, the core advisor of the Admark Palace... The other party was obviously just a leader of the swamp gang. In the past, he would have gone to the sand. The existence of a wanted order in the Kingdom of Ke.

"Olen, thank you for your hard work, you have to go back again." Lu Meng had no airs and sincerely apologized, "You also know the terrible road conditions in the swamp..."

It was Oren in the Bone Corps, the mastermind who originally planned to rescue the Fearless, and he organized the first members of the Bone Corps.

Instead, he was talking to the people around him to say goodbye... That was still a man with a broken horn!

Just when Pompeo felt that he could not lose the prestige and dignity of the kingdom, and wanted to cheer up and step forward to negotiate, the scene he saw seemed to slap him again.

"No, it's better to say that we also want to thank you..." Oren waved his hands quickly.

He has white hair and black eyes, and a calm temperament. He is holding a wine glass in one hand and thinking deeply. Judging from the fact that this person can sit in the chief position, he is probably not the Red King that the soldier said.

But I didn't see him.

Pompeo: "!"

His movement broke the stagnant situation.

Rather, it looks like blood.

It's just... Pompeo saw that the Red King was so close to the cadres of the exiles, but was so indifferent to himself, the special envoy representing the kingdom... as if his status was not as good as that of the Bones.

There is no doubt that this is the Red King.

It was true that Pompeo had not dealt with gang leaders before, but he had never encountered such a situation... In a daze, he actually had the urge to go back to the tribe's tent and face the general's anxiety and oppression.

What made him even more ashamed was.

When Pompeo stepped into the hall, his eyes were first attracted by a person.

Pompeo thought.

Moreover, Pompeo also knew him.

I guess it's because the people in the swamp are tough and tough. Their boss can climb out and take countless lives on his hands. He naturally has a ruthless aura and is more intimidating than ordinary warriors.

The Shaq tribe that I belong to used to be synonymous with tough folk customs.

Oren is responsible for daily operations.

Seeing this gesture, the waiters thought it was a guest who forgot to bring something.

A surge of anger welled up in his heart, and Special Envoy Shaq walked through the busy people and walked forward.

The man stood up.

But he forgot for a moment.

Pompei Nashaq's face, which was already purple, became darker due to the pain.

When he stepped into the hall, he felt as if he had entered the attack range. He felt his heart twitching violently, as if he was shocked by invisible pressure, or it was an instinctive warning, just like a lower creature facing a predator. time fear.

Later, Torah served as the nominal leader of the Bones and also their spiritual guide.

And was interrupted like this.

Didn't pay much attention to it.

The owner of Shark Village stood up.

Pompeo: "..."

Hanging on his waist was a strange and slender weapon, which looked like a sword. It had no leather scabbard and had a faint red tint on its surface, which was not the color that metal should have.

However, he is just a civil servant.

The anger in the heart of Special Envoy Shaq, who originally felt that he had been neglected, was like being poured down by a basin of water. It suddenly became cold and could no longer float up.

His strength is low, and he can't do things accurately based on his feelings.

Pompeo took a sharp breath, choking on himself and coughing - Unconsciously, the Shaq forgot to breathe, so that he only regained his composure now.

This illusion only lasted for a moment.

In fact, the two had known each other for a long time in Scone Town.

It's just that the Skeleton Corps and others didn't know Lu Meng's identity - at that time, he was still a swordsman in black, and his strength and status were not as good as they are today.

When Oren recalled this past, he was filled with emotion.

At that time, under the prison tower.

Everyone seems to be enemies but not friends - oneself and others are rescuing the fearless Tora, while the other party is rescuing his "friend". The two sides meet on a narrow road, and a conflict almost breaks out.

However, on the one hand, the swordsman in black had a backup plan.

On the one hand, the fearless ones also admired his character, and used this to encourage the warriors of the Skeleton Regiment; this mysterious man became the first human warrior they recognized.

Also, speaking of "skeleton mass".

This name was chosen by the other party, and it suits them well.

It can be said that the origin is not shallow.

But Oren didn't expect that when they met again, the swordsman in black who once had to hide his identity had already taken off, causing such a big wave in the outside world, and even became the king of the swamp.

They were fortunate that after Scone, the two sides still maintained a certain degree of cooperation.

The fate of the skeleton group depends on the other party.

Once upon a time, Luka, another important figure in the Skeleton Regiment, followed the vanguard of Lu Beiyou into the swamp, just to explore the situation first and find a possible escape route for the wandering Broken Horn warriors.

Now, there's the King of the Swamp.

In this vast dense forest, there is no need to worry about having no place to stay.

Now that I think about it.

It can be said that it takes no effort at all.

Supporting the other party is regarded as giving a petition.

In this regard, the leader of the Skeleton Group, Fearless Tora, was quite magnanimous.

after all.

The swordsman in black can achieve these achievements.

It just shows that she had a good vision under the prison tower.

Really good at reading people.

Everyone nodded in agreement, admiring each other with admiration...

Just as Oren and Lu Meng were saying goodbye, a deep and high-pitched voice came from a distance, interrupting their conversation:

"Your Excellency the Red King...Pompe, the special envoy of the Kingdom of Shaq and the Administrative Officer of the Admark Palace, pays tribute to you with the greetings of His Highness the Stone Demon and the prestige passed down by Krall——"

The words were formal.

But the voice is uncomfortable to listen to.

I only saw the audience.

A Shaq man wearing a formal dress and his horns polished with oil spoke loudly.

Pompeo puffed out his chest and looked directly at the two people at the table. It wasn't until they looked at him that he gave a brief salute, and he didn't look at Oren next to Lu Meng, which was deliberately ignored.

At this moment, he has adjusted his mentality.

As an individual, regardless of strength or status.

Even he couldn't compare with the Red King's recklessness.

However, his identity is different.

As a palace envoy, he represents the noble and mighty kingdom.

Standing behind him was the entire Stan Desert, the Stone Demon Queen!

at this point.

Occupying Shark Village is just a mere city lord.

How do you want to fight with me?
"You..." Oren's expression changed. He knew the envoy's urinary nature and felt something was wrong. He was about to speak, but was interrupted by Lu Meng with a smile.

"Red King?" Lu Meng repeated softly, shaking his head secretly.

The young people from Huangshui Village are very motivated. The only disadvantage is that they like to 'arrange' themselves secretly. Even he himself does not know the origin of some rumors.

Once he sneaked in and disguised himself as a sergeant.

I heard a veteran talk about heroic romance stories, and when I was busy gossiping, I felt a vague sense of déjà vu. Suddenly his name appeared in the story, and Lu Meng was shocked to realize that the protagonist turned out to be me.

So I could only retreat silently to avoid being discovered.

However, since everyone liked it, there was no need for him to go out of his way to correct it.

After all, Ye Shi really doesn’t know.

It must be wild enough anyway.

The title 'Red King' is one of the more widely circulated examples. Now it is even used by foreign envoys, which has an official nature.

"Envoy Pang?" Lu Meng said with a smile, "Since you are from the Kingdom of Shake, we can be considered friends... I have had many connections with you before."

He motioned Pompeo to come forward and sit at his desk.

Pompeo did not move.

He deliberately looked around. The side seats in the hall were full of leftover banquets left by the guests, some dishes and dishes that had not been cleared away, and there was still wine in the glasses. It looked like a party was over.

"Shaq people are vulgar and don't know the customs of the swamp..." Pompeo said slowly, "It's just that in our place, if friends come to the door, even the humblest hornless people know how to clean the seats and welcome them - —Maybe we are too particular, please forgive me."

Oren's expression changed.

There was blame in the other party's words, and he mentioned the Hornless Man, but he stabbed himself and Lu Meng at the same time... It can be said that he was quite arrogant.

However, at this moment, Pompeo was no longer arguing for himself.

Personally, he had already been overwhelmed by the other party's momentum.

But, apart from personal honor and disgrace.

He also represents the Shaq Kingdom.

It doesn't matter if he was neglected, Pompeo could swallow his anger; but if he still humiliated himself like this when he knew that he was a special envoy, it would ruin the face of the kingdom.

Well, sorry.

He could only refuse to give in.

Although he is only a civil servant, Pompeo also has the honor of being a warrior...

"Huh? I know this." Lu Meng tilted his head slightly, "But I don't seem to have heard that in the Kingdom of Shake, 'being late' is also a proper etiquette..."

He really hadn't heard of it.

In the past, home visits were always on time, even if the host disagreed.

After all, there is a gap between patrols by the guards.

"...Uh." Pompeo's throat suddenly choked.

It seems that this is what happened.

After the other party sent someone to notify him, he did not go out immediately. Instead, he put on a cumbersome dress. He was worried about losing his dignity. Even as a Shaq, he still dressed up and rehearsed the interview in his heart. When dealing with the owner of Shark Village, he must respond to the measured Q&A dialogue with a measured advance and retreat, and also think about the loopholes in Bayan that need to be investigated...

Plus the time when I accidentally got lost...

It seems that it took a little while.

"I thought it was because Special Envoy Pang didn't want to be rewarded..." Lu Meng's tone was calm, but there was a hint of sarcasm in his voice, "I was wrong."

Today he hosted a banquet for everyone in the Skeleton Regiment, plus the top brass of the coalition forces.

Including the directors of various newly established departments, they all gathered here.

It is impossible to be put off because of one person.

In the entire swamp, it can be said that except for Lu Meng, no one has such a big reputation - but it is impossible for him to do such a stupid thing.

"This, this...don't dare."

Pompeo was speechless.

The bottom line is that at first he thought this was a private conversation and an exclusive dinner between himself and the other party. The weight of Shaq's kingdom can afford such treatment, so the arrangement will be much more flexible - if he is late, it will actually highlight his importance.

This set of rules, after the Shark Kingdom established trade with the United City,
He learned it from the circle of aristocrats and ladies.

However, now it seems... this is just an ordinary banquet, and I am not that important in the other person's heart.

The summoned helper presumably needed to be notified because there were many guests and there was a shortage of manpower. After several attempts to urge him to no avail, he left his address and headed to the next restaurant.

So much so that he just missed the time.

Look at it this way, the fault does not lie with the other party at all...

Pompeo murmured something and wanted to say something, but he couldn't speak. He only felt like there were ants crawling on his back - doesn't this mean that because of his negligence, the kingdom lost face in front of the people of the swamp? In the end, it turned out to be someone else's fault...

However, the envoy still felt a little bit dissatisfied in his heart.

He couldn't figure it out.

Why can't I, who represents the kingdom, even be summoned for a separate meeting?

This also despises them...

"Since it's a misunderstanding, it's easy to talk about it."

Lu Meng glanced at his expression, smiled inwardly, stopped forcing him, and signaled the other person to come forward again.

Pompeo got off the donkey and sat in front of the case.

But until he sat down, he was still numb, like a wandering ghost doll, as if he didn't know what was going on.

"The food is gone, and it will take time to prepare it again...but there is still some special tea from the swamp, which can be used to moisten the throat of Special Envoy Pang." Lu Meng greeted, "It's just that I saw the expression on Special Envoy Pang, and I think he has something to say. Say it?"

Pompeo frowned and couldn't care less. He picked up another task of his and asked directly:

"What I want to know is that His Excellency the Red King himself said that he has a connection with our Kingdom of Shake and has contacted the exiled Skeleton Group. Even though they are not guilty now, they are rebelling after all... What are your intentions?"

Will they become enemies of the Shaker Kingdom?
Knowing what the Red King is doing, it's easy to guess what Bayan's plan is.

A cup of tea was placed in front of Lu Meng. He picked it up and took a sip: "No comment."

"Your Excellency!" Pompei was angry and stared at Lu Meng.

"I know that the Skeleton Regiment has brought countless armor, baggage, mechanical parts, bows and arrows, and there are several teams of beasts of burden alone. I have recorded every one of them... and they all came from Skunk. The amount shipped out from the town can be regarded as treason and aiding the enemy! It is impossible for us not to pay attention to the losses of our kingdom..."

"I now represent the Shark Kingdom and the Stone Demon Queen with full authority - to tell you the truth, I also have the authorization of the Invincible Five! For the sake of the border relationship, if the Red King is sincere, he should not be secretive. …”

"Damn it," a female voice came from beside the special envoy, crisp and clear, interrupting him. Then a cup of clear and fragrant tea was placed in front of him. "They are all buds from hundreds of years old trees. They can only be picked every new year..."

Pompei was in a hurry, but he was still in the mood to drink tea.

He flicked it casually, shook the porcelain cup, and poured out all the tea.

"...Fuck! Do you like it?" The person who brought the tea had some of it poured on her hand. Although it was not serious, she was still a little angry. She grabbed the cup and slammed it on the table. The sound shocked Pompeo. Jumped, and then walked to the side by himself.

Pompeo was surprised by the arrogance of this "maid" and looked up.

Then he froze and uttered a few words with difficulty:

"Princess, princess..."
