Surviving The Fourth Calamity

Chapter 1276: Chapter 1066: Who Was Sent by the Queen

’Snow Cloud Peak’ glanced at the Halfling priest twice, and swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue... Mobi is just foolish, does he really want to know why this Alchemist didn’t choose Manks?

Anyone with a bit of self-awareness wouldn’t want to volunteer for that, right?

He hoped to deduce from Ellie’s words whether this unknown Xieke was someone sent by Queen Amelia.

That queen would definitely send someone... If there’s a fight at the doorstep, one would get nervous, not to mention this is a brawl happening in her own backyard.

But the timing of the arrival is different.

Especially, if no one has appeared yet and they’re waiting for someone possibly sent by the Queen, they need to be more on guard.

That would prove she is absolutely a hard-liner and might try to pull the rug from under their feet after they fight the vampire.

To rule such a large territory, there must be high-level combat power supporting her, and besides, what if Mother Earth decided to intervene?

’Snow Cloud Peak’ sighed silently... Maybe because he shared Mobi’s misfortunes with the Halfling, annoying the prideful young master.

Even though Mobi is usually quite shrewd in these matters, he probably didn’t think it through and directly retorted.

If Baldy were here, it’d be great... Snow Old Dog sighed again. That guy is more resilient after taking many beatings and knew how to get along and cooperate with him.

Sadly, the timing has passed, and there’s no bringing it up again.

If ’Snow Cloud Peak’ said a few more words, this somewhat startled Halfling priest might just jump up and make a run for it.

Anyway, the deposit is all paid... The Undead Tribe’s reputation in this aspect is still quite reliable.

After all, their Main God is a little too rule-abiding and wouldn’t allow them to be unfaithful, taking money without doing the work.

’Snow Cloud Peak’ tilted his head in thought... If William was replaced with a deity from Toril’s side, even with their smooth interactions with Lansendel and Tyr... he couldn’t help but click his tongue, no, he really can’t enjoy that fortune.

So, let’s continue abiding by the rules!

Ellie peeked for a moment, then suddenly pointed at a massive figure on the shore and exclaimed in surprise: ”Nick Nack!”

She quickly turned to look at ’Snow Cloud Peak’: ”Although he’s a double-headed giant, Nick Nack is a Druid~ definitely not an evil kind of giant!

He’s good friends with many Halflings!”

’Snow Cloud Peak’ confusedly looked towards the shore at the peculiar double-headed giant riding an elephant: despite wearing different headdresses and hairstyles, his two heads looked almost identical.

A height of about three meters and a half would be considered short among giants, but he was still very strong.

His skin was rose-pink, with neatly trimmed nails, dressed in a brown Druid robe.

On the right head, he wore a silver Alignment Reverse Helmet shaped like a dragon’s skull. The left head bore an Insight Gem that looked like a human fist-sized emerald, set in a golden headband.

An enormous pair of curved swords were strapped on his back.

’Snow Cloud Peak’ remained silent... Unless that double-headed giant passed the Alignment Detection on the magic ship, he wouldn’t believe the Halfling priest’s words.

Though their Alignment Detection became slightly flexible upon arriving in Toril, their baseline is way stricter than what’s common here.

Letting him trust that a double-headed giant is neutral just from a Halfling’s words, that’s impossible.

Even an evil giant could have a good attitude towards Halflings! The more they eat, the more they like their cook, right?

Hmm? Those Quel Senta female mages unexpectedly gave up talking to the Alchemist and beckoned to that double-headed giant?

It seems this chubby double-headed giant is quite famous, at least the mages from Quel Senta knew his identity.

’Snow Cloud Peak’ turned to look at ’Ink Brush Mortalworld’... This time, the Space-Time Warlock finally reacted correctly, burying himself in his tablet to start researching.

The double-headed giant standing on the shore urged his elephant steed towards the magic ship... The elephant didn’t seem like a natural creature, with luminescent feet, sprinting over the waves swiftly.

”Hello there!” The double-headed giant waved energetically as he reached the edge of the magic ship, ignoring the yellow light surrounding him, and said in a warm, muffled voice, ”Did I pass the test? Can I come aboard?”

The black-haired female mages glanced in ’Snow Cloud Peak’s’ direction, exchanged glances among themselves, and finally pushed Rouge Mark out.

With so much attention focused, you naturally have to bear the responsibility... Being a spokesperson isn’t so easy.

Rouge Mark could only grit his teeth, take quick steps towards ’Snow Cloud Peak’: ”Can our determined followers come aboard?”

”Of course, employers have priority.” ’Snow Cloud Peak’ replied without blinking.

”Really?” Rouge Mark clapped his hands in joy, ”Then... what if there’s a slight issue with alignment? We... from Quel Senta, most attendants come from the Arena, it’s hard to find many... who can maintain above neutrality!”

”That’s your freedom!” Hill laughed, ”Why would we meddle in so many affairs?”

Rouge Mark laughed enchantingly, placing a hand gently by her mouth: ”In that case...”

”The alignment detection on the magic ship won’t be turned off! This is our home, and the invited guests naturally must follow our wishes.” Hill decisively interrupted her, ”You can have your followers with some issues get their own ship, ships aren’t expensive, right?”

Rouge Mark’s hand stiffened as she put it down, staring fixedly at Hill, then suddenly gave him a big eye-roll before quickly turning and walking back to the ship’s bow.

Mobi Chenxin behind Hill couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Ellie looked left and right, unable to resist her curiosity: ”Did you do it on purpose? Do you dislike her speaking in such a particularly Shuni manner?”

Hill looked inexplicably at the halfling priest: ”Is there something wrong with what I said?

I’ve been very polite!

If an Undead Tribe member said something so boring to me, I would only tell her to say less nonsense and get far away.

Since they are foreign guests, I specially organized normal language for them!”

Ellie’s large watery halfling eyes suddenly widened: she couldn’t understand how the earlier words were actually polite?

She suddenly understood why the Northlanders, who swore never to bow, stepped back as a whole tribe in the face of the Undead Tribe!

Those Northlanders who regarded adventure and battle as life surely weren’t afraid to die, but definitely didn’t want to be angered to death.

Although Ellie found it amusing and wanted to watch for a bit longer, as the magic ship was about to leave the Alaron Island area, she could only quickly take her leave: halflings have always been poor, having a coastal fast ship is already good enough, any further and they can’t go back.

This ship’s slowest speed was still a bit faster than their fastest speed.

Anyway, with the combat power of the Undead Tribe, Ellie absolutely didn’t think the vampire at Snowfall Island could resist for long... She hadn’t even run when the wind blew, and Ellie greatly admired the Duchess’s composure.

Knowing the divine artifact would certainly get her home, Ellie happily bid farewell to the Undead Tribe and went back to her little boat to go home.

Meanwhile, the giant double-headed giant Nick Nack was also climbing laboriously and slowly onto the tall magic ship on the back of an elephant.

He patted his solid chest, ”Ah! This ship is so magnificent! Thanks for your help, Raji.”

He then turned his elephant mount into a statue and tucked it into the hidden pocket on his chest.

Hill thought for a moment, choosing to observe for now... after all, they’re here for the black-haired female mages.

Watch for a period first... If this double-headed giant is still alive after the mission is complete, then consider his recent performance before deciding whether to interact with him.

Ink Brush Mortalworld whispered behind him, ”The information is given to you, he’s quite famous.”

Hill glanced down, ”Tsk tsk, a dragon-slaying giant! He was already a Druid when he entered human society, no wonder his alignment is so steadfast, shining so brightly.”

He turned and walked into the cabin, not planning to continue observing the influx of adventurers with the appearance of the double-headed giant.

It’s not surprising to him that knowing the former attendants of these black-haired girls died so miserably, so many people still rushed forward: there will never be a shortage of people who think money is more important than life, it’s just a matter of high or low price.

In their Undead Tribe’s world, buying lives and selling lives must be a big deal, after all, nobody can’t survive.

But in Toril, where life is as thin as paper... people going all out for a copper coin exist, let alone treasures related to deities?

The treasure of Snowfall Island must have been exposed... That Manks probably started spreading it everywhere after discovering the Quel Senta female mages hired the Undead Tribe, right?

But she probably didn’t expect those Moonshadow Island adventurers would rather choose to become followers of the Quel Senta mages, getting involved in the notorious meat grinder Path of Destiny, than contend against the Undead Tribe.

Hill proudly raised his chin: This is the world they fought for! Hehe~

Nestled comfortably in the large sofa in the cabin, he asked concernedly, ”How’s it going on Baldy’s side? Is Ambori holding up?”

”No problem.” An Undead Tribe member replied, ”This time, the seaweed is quite smart, never charging out proactively~

It might be that we don’t pose much of a threat to her?

Yet when she saw Hill, she couldn’t suppress her urge to strike actively!”

”Maybe it’s because Hill is too good-looking?” Hill chuckled, ”Doesn’t the seaweed hate beauties the most?”

He clapped his hands on the tablet, watching the steady stream of boarders at the ship’s bow, smiling, ”Come, come~ Place your bets, Alchemist and double-headed giant, who is the witness sent by the Queen?

This is very obvious!”
