55. Look at that fox, it’s Xun La!
Since we are neighboring the Kingdom of Prulus, our journey to the beastmen’s Austro-Hungarian tribe didn’t take much time.
Just as I was painstakingly explaining to these two beastmen that “I am still a pure man,” a topic that brought me no joy, our risky journey, which we could not use for pleasure, was nearing its end.
Thanks to the guidance and status of Ge Luom and Gu Erdan, we successfully entered the heart of the Austro-Hungarian tribe. By the way… when Ge Luom kindly reminded me, the script indeed revealed the content I least wanted to see!
“From now on, even with the identities of me and Brother Gu Erdan, it won’t be easy to act. You elven ladies better not run around!”
【Oujili De is suspected and killed by the great chieftain!】
The situation within the Austro-Hungarian tribe may not be as relaxed as I had imagined!
The Austro-Hungarian tribe of beastmen is essentially a kingdom under the guise of a tribe. I had no choice but to come to the Austro-Hungarian tribe when I was fleeing as a villain, and I experienced it firsthand.
The beastmen of Austro-Hungary consist of “orthodox beastmen” like Ge Luom and Gu Erdan, as well as those with ears and tails, resembling humans in other aspects, often seen in shooting games. One must not assume that just because Austro-Hungary is a “tribe,” these beastmen are primitive creatures; in fact, they possess order and a clear hierarchy, and should not be underestimated. The reason I escaped a pursuit back then was precisely because I couldn’t enter the Austro-Hungarian tribe .
The Austro-Hungarian tribe emphasizes “class” and some “ancient civilization,” in other words, treasures and legends. Ge Luom and Gu Erdan are said to be the most valiant and trusted warriors by the great chieftain of the Austro-Hungarian tribe, so their status among the beastmen is correspondingly high.
After patting his chest and assuring us, “It’s no problem to take you to meet the great chieftain!” we proceeded to meet the great chieftain of the Austro-Hungarian tribe, under the watchful and peculiar gazes of the beastmen.
At this moment.
I was probably a bit nervous; Adafe was almost clinging to my legs.
“Adafe, haven’t you seen beastmen before?”
Adafe is the queen of the Kingdom of Prulus; in my impression, she should have seen beastmen at least a little, right? Yet her reaction now is as tense as a child going on a long trip.
“How, how could that be? Those statements were just for mobilization; as for meetings between countries, I’ve never seen the chieftain of Austro-Hungary attend even once.”
Suddenly, Ge Luom turned to us and made a “hush” gesture. Upon closer inspection, it turned out that as we approached the great chieftain of Austro-Hungary, the number of beastmen blocking our way had increased. That’s how the beastmen of Austro -Hungary are; the closer you get to the boss, the stronger the guards become. At this point, even beastmen like Ge Luom and Gu Erdan found it a bit difficult to speak.
A few tall, green-skinned beastmen, similar to Gu Erdan, approached us as soon as they saw us, and along with that, they conveyed to me a death script saying, “Beastman A slapped Oujili De to death!” As for Ke Fei’er and Adafe, I thought they were the very embodiment of cuteness and beauty! However, in front of the two beautiful girls, the only reaction from these beastmen was a disdainful snort upon seeing their elven long ears.
“Hmph! Gu Erdan, Ge Luom, why are there humans and two elven ladies following you?!”
“Uh…”
The simple-minded Ge Luom couldn’t think of a response at the moment, but Gu Erdan was smarter and quickly added!
“We were sent as envoys to Prulus; these are envoys from the elven side! They are here to meet the great chieftain!”
“And what about this weak, caterpillar-like human?!”
“He… uh, he is the pretty boy of the elf lady boss!”
Since he didn’t think it was a lie, Ge Luom was quite justified in agreeing.
“That’s right! It’s a door-in-door situation!”
The other party immediately showed me a face full of disdain.
Forget it, a real man can bend and stretch; as long as we can get through, that’s what matters.
With Ge Luom and Gu Erdan vouching for us, and since not every beastman is as “quick-witted compared to other beastmen” as Gu Erdan, we really did get through this checkpoint.
Next was the part where we went to meet the great chieftain! After finishing everything just now, Gu Erdan nervously wiped the sweat from his forehead and turned his head to whisper a reminder.
“You all saw just now, don’t provoke those high-ranking beastmen in the Austro-Hungarian tribe. As for those subhumans, they are just here to do the chores. Look…”
Saying that, Gu Erdan pointed not far away at a little fox carrying a basin, apparently going to pour out foot-washing water! Cute as it was, the gray and shabby fur and ragged clothes looked like two words—slave.
“This one doesn’t matter, hey! Who allowed you to come in here? This is a place for high-ranking beastmen!”
“Gu Erdan, forget it, forget it.”
Seeing that Gu Erdan’s roar had scared that little fox almost to its knees, I hurriedly stopped the beastman.
“We have a mission right now; it’s better not to create too much trouble.”
While blocking Gu Erdan, I signaled for that gray furball to hurry up and run. Although the script mentioned something like [the little fox noticed Oujili De], the next moment was interrupted by an even more dangerous script!
At the same time, Ge Luom and Gu Erdan, who had just relaxed, suddenly became even more tense! Even more serious than when they were lying just now!
A wolf? No, it was a beastman with a wolf’s head, slightly shorter than Gu Erdan, with a dark face and a hunched back, walking out from the room that was obviously where the “great chieftain” was located.
We were about to meet the great chieftain of the Austro-Hungarian tribe and could soon confirm the dangers in the script, but unexpectedly… the most troublesome obstacle appeared!
【The great wizard of the Austro-Hungarian tribe blocked Oujili De and his group!】
【Oujili De is suspected and is instantly killed by the wizard’s spell!】
Instantly killed? Isn’t that a bit excessive!?
I didn’t have time to care about these death scripts; after all, I couldn’t expect Ke Fei Er to protect me at such a time, and… I had to step up to help Ke Fei Er and Adafe out of this “elf” predicament!
“Gu Erdan, Ge Luom…”
After approaching us with a dark expression, this beastman wizard first gave us a glance, then sneered, “This is a place for high-ranking beastmen; elves are not allowed inside.”
“Uh… esteemed wizard, we are bringing an envoy…”
“Envoys are not allowed either; let them wait outside. Elves are not worthy of meeting the great chieftain directly~”
【The Austro-Hungarian wizard is preventing Oujili De from meeting the great chieftain!】
Hiss… this guy is doing it on purpose!?
“But…”
“Gu Erdan, do you need me to make it clearer? Here, elves and humans and dogs are not allowed inside!”
Adafe almost couldn’t hold back against his disdain and contempt, but luckily I managed to stop her.
However, this situation…
Only makes me more suspicious.
“This is our clan’s great shaman.”
Geloram quietly leaned closer to my ear, “Strange, usually the great shaman is lively and easy to talk to, what’s going on today…”
What else could it be…
Of course, it’s your Austro-Hungarian boss who has run into trouble!
【The Austro-Hungarian great shaman has been ordered to prevent Euclid from meeting with the clan chief!】
【Kefir and Aidefu are in danger!】
This is troublesome; the script has completely taken a turn for the worse!
