Chapter 157 The Contract of the Lord and Pet
The death of an orc cub, in exchange for the high morale of the warriors, is indeed worth it in the eyes of the superiors.
Liu Jianan did not have the position to blame Kilwater.
If it were him, as the king of the orcs, he would definitely do the same to inspire the morale of the warriors.
He was just sad.
Omar did not enjoy any preferential treatment when he was alive, but he was still used as a tool to inspire morale after his death.
How cruel can war be?
In the past, he thought that exchanging children for food and starving corpses for thousands of miles were just exaggerations. They
were imagined by the predecessors to make the later generations recall the bitter past and think of the sweet future. After all, no matter how hungry he was, he would not want to eat the flesh and blood of the same kind.
But now he realized that those were not the bloody histories fabricated by historians.
War, famine, and unpredictable natural and man-made disasters.
They are bound to push those who are caught in them into an abyss of no return.
Suddenly, he felt someone holding his hand.
He subconsciously wanted to break free, but was held tighter.
Liu Jianan glanced to the side and met Xiao Duan's gentle gaze.
"An An," Duan Haiping never thought that he would feel so sorry for someone, "Don't be sad, I will accompany you to avenge little Omar."
They all knew that the only people who wanted to kill him could be vampires, and there was a high probability that it was Gu Hongyong and Yuan Liangji.
Liu Jianan lowered his eyes and did not answer.
He found that he was actually a little greedy for the warmth of the fingertips.
After everyone who came and went had left, the bloodstains and broken flesh had been cleaned up.
Liu Jianan then slowly spoke: "Even if the enemy is powerful, even if you will be crushed to pieces if you fail?"
Duan Haiping chuckled, his eyes were full of seriousness: "I will go with you, even if there are tens of thousands of people, I will go."
He was sincere.
But he already had Duan Haiping in his heart, and Xiao Duan was very good, so he didn't want to deceive Xiao Duan's feelings.
"I'm sorry, I can't..."
"An'an, you know, I don't want to listen, and I won't listen." Duan Haiping made no secret of his tyranny and determination to win.
Liu Jianan supported his forehead.
This is exactly the same as Duan Haiping in the novel.
It's really a headache.
…………
Omar’s funeral was held on the morning of the second day, which was named after the rising sun.
Ironically, the sun had set before it even rose, just like today’s weather, which turned cloudy.
On the altar, Liu Jianan saw the orc witch for the first time.
He was wearing a gorgeous sacrificial robe, holding a staff, and chanting an ancient eulogy.
“I sigh and think about it; my soul, my soul, return to my hometown…”
His voice was low and melodious, as if it could penetrate the soul and evoke deep memories of Omar.
The other orcs listened quietly, with their heads bowed, silently praying for Omar in their hearts.
Some orcs couldn’t help but shed sad tears, while others gritted their teeth and endured the pain in their hearts.
At the climax of the ceremony, the witch threw some special herbs on the bonfire, and the flames rose instantly, illuminating the entire altar.
The flames instantly engulfed Omar's thin body, and as the flames rose, a phantom that looked like Omar gradually formed.
This symbolized that Omar's spirit will always exist and will continue to illuminate the future of the orcs.
The witch's voice rang out: "A moment of silence for the little hero of the orcs!"
Everyone followed his words and closed their eyes in silence.
At this moment, Kilwater appeared, his voice was as loud as a bell, and it was deafening: "The blood clan slaughtered my comrades and killed my cubs. This heinous blood feud must be paid with blood!" "
The blood debt must be paid with blood!"
"The blood debt must be paid with blood!"
The orcs screamed at the top of their lungs, as if they wanted to spit out all the anger in their chests.
Kilwater continued: "Raise your weapons, defend the last homeland of the orcs, and avenge the dead heroes!"
"Kill, kill, kill!"
For a while, the sound of killing shook the sky and echoed through the clouds.
Liu Jianan was in it, and he felt that his blood was ignited.
He had to admit that Kilwater really knew how to mobilize the warriors' morale, and his plan was undoubtedly successful.
Liu Jianan stared at the shadow on the flames with burning eyes.
There seemed to be a flickering fire in his eyes.
After the ceremony, the witch invited Liu Jianan and others to come to the hall of the city lord's mansion for a talk.
Gilwater was also there.
The witch's attitude was very friendly. He smiled at Liu Jianan, and his smile was quite kind.
"Your Highness, Prince An, I heard from Sandner that you hope to sign a master-pet contract with this little monkey?"
Hearing this, Liu Jianan nodded and added, "My godmother also wants to sign a master-pet contract with her summoned creature."
The Great Wizard nodded slightly and said, "You are a beastman who is as noble as the Great King. If you need me, I will naturally serve you."
He stood up and invited Liu Jianan and others, "Please follow me."
The beast-control altar is located in the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion. The Great Wizard gestured to Liu Jianan and the little King Kong to stand on the altar.
Then he began to chant a spell.
Soon, a chain of phantoms formed between the man and the beast, indicating that the master-pet contract had been signed.
Liu Jianan opened his eyes and called out tentatively: "Little King Kong?"
"Yaaaaaa!" Master, master, I'm here!
I can actually understand what Little King Kong is saying!
Liu Jianan excitedly picked up Little King Kong: "Mom, I can understand what Little King Kong is saying, you should also sign a master-pet contract with Zhang Bao!"
Zhang Wenqian couldn't wait to hold the little fragrant pig and walk up to the altar.
Liu Jianan took this opportunity to have a private chat with Little King Kong.
He actually always wanted to know whether Little King Kong's previous owner was Qi Xiuheng.
And where did Qi Xiuheng go after Qin Lingyue was forced to marry Jin Junda.
Little King Kong babbled and told Liu Jianan the ending of the story.
It turned out that after his sweetheart married someone else, Qi Xiuheng was lost for a long time.
In order to make his sweetheart's life better, he did not hesitate to use his power to clear the obstacles for the Jin family.
He also lost everything because of this and was sent to Hulu Mountain to be a forest ranger.
Little King Kong was a little golden monkey he picked up.
After that, they depended on each other in Hulu Mountain, and Qi Xiuheng spent the rest of his life in the long thoughts of Qin Lingyue.
If you count it this way, the little King Kong is much older than them.
But I don't know if it was because of the coming of the end of the world, under the nourishment of the element, the little King Kong actually returned to his childhood.
After listening to the whole story, Liu Jianan just felt sad.
They were clearly two lovers, but in the end, they were unable to be together due to some strange circumstances.
Qi Xiuheng thought that Qin Lingyue would marry into a wealthy family and enjoy unlimited glory, but he didn't know how she was tortured by Jin Junda and lived a life worse than death.
Qin Lingyue thought Qi Xiuheng didn't dare to compete with the Jin family, but she didn't know that he gave everything for her, just so that she could get glory and wealth.
If it were him, he wouldn't care what status or situation the person he liked was in.
Even if the whole world blocked him, he had to be with the other person.
He didn't want to be like in the original book, waiting until he died to understand his own feelings.
Not to mention like Qi Xiuheng and Qin Lingyue, who thought they were helping others, but in fact no one could get happiness.
Hu Jianye, who was standing by, saw his bitter and resentful expression, and couldn't help asking curiously: "An An, what are you thinking about?"
Liu Jianan said casually: "Thinking about how to force yourself on me."
