Chapter 494 Nothing can stop my yearning for freedom!

This damn villain!

The black-armored knight stood with his sword.

The place where he stood meant "You can only stay here and cannot go beyond."

Balas cursed in his heart, but he dared not show the slightest disrespect on his face, nor could he step out of line.

Otherwise, it will be met with another torrential massacre by the knights.

The last time, its arms and legs were chopped off by the Blood Knight, causing it to roll on the ground in pain. Even the wind was unable to stop it from howling in agony.

"It's just a Nibelung! Why do you do this to me? Giants are born to eat them!"

Barras argued loudly and unconvinced.

"Oracle, do not cause population decline."

The Blood Knight replied coldly.

"…Then what should I eat!?"

"ice."

Baras endured the pain and anger and buried his head in gnawing at the large icicle on the ground.

The humiliation today will be repaid a hundredfold in the future! The Blood Knights were stationed in the Kingdom of Mist, making it impossible for Baras to hunt the Nibelungs. He was no match for them and could only be beaten and humiliated unilaterally.

Baras witnessed several Nibelungs leaving here and made a decision.

If I can't beat you, can't I just hide? "I've decided to leave the Kingdom of Mist. I want to go to the outside world. This place is no longer suitable for me. I hope you won't stop me."

After saying that, Balas ran away.

You have the final say here, but you can't control the outside world, right? Then, before he ran two steps, Baras had one leg chopped off by the Blood Knight, and he was dragged back from the ground by the remaining leg.

It was so angry that its voice trembled: "Don't go too far! I just want to leave here! What's wrong with that!"

"We need to ask the gods for advice."

The Blood Knight spoke in a cold tone.

After a moment, he said, "Oracle, you are allowed to leave."

Baras carefully reattached his broken leg, and the ice element quickly sewed it together.

It took two tentative steps, and seeing that the Blood Knight was still standing there, it fled away, leaving a long trail of footprints on the ground.

It was not until he completely broke out of the area covered by ice fog and broke away from the hard ice under his feet that Balas felt the joy of surviving a disaster.

It opened its arms and laughed up to the sky in the wind and sand.

Successfully escaped from the clutches!

Nothing can stop my yearning for freedom!

If I'm not allowed to hunt the Nibelungs in the Land of Mist, you can't do anything about it outside, right? It had already thought about it.

Some Nibelungens will leave the Land of Mist. You just need to stay outside the edge and catch anyone who comes out.

Baras lurked under the sand, disguising himself as a sand dune, and watched from the dark.

The plan was perfect, but unexpected things happened during its actual implementation.

First is the climate issue.

It was too hot outside, and Balas was not used to it. After being exposed to the sun, he buried himself in the sand, feeling a little dizzy. After the extreme cold, he was extremely hot, which made his body swell.

The ice elements on the body's surface continued to dissipate, but could not gather and regenerate.

It felt itself growing weaker.

There are also small hard-shelled insects that come and crawl between its huge body to suck moisture. The brave ones will even crawl behind the knee joints and armpits of Balas' body to enjoy the coolness.

Barras could easily crush hundreds of these bugs.

But after being scared away, they would come back again after a while, and it was endless.

In this harsh environment, Barras felt that his condition was getting worse and worse.

It gritted its teeth and held on.

None of the Nibelungs showed up, which made it even more annoyed.

Why don't you come out! The outside world is different from the Land of Mist. There is almost no naturally occurring ice element, but the fire element is very dense, which makes Baras have an idea.

Or? Go back first?

It immediately rejected the idea.

After finally escaping from the brutal rule of the Blood Knights, going back would be like walking into a trap and being laughed at by the other side. I'm afraid I'll completely lose my dignity from now on.

Never go back!

Even if you want to go back, you can't be so embarrassed, you have to go back in glory!

It was unknown how much time had passed. The sweaty Balas changed several ambush sites, crushed many small insects, and finally waited for the target.

A strange car slowly drove out of the fog at the edge of the Land of Mist, with three large purple flowers standing on it. It sensed that Nibelungen was inside the car!

Barras excitedly jumped up from the ground and strode towards the car, waving his arms and grabbing the part of the car where Nibelungen was.

When he was only two steps away from the opponent, thunder exploded in Balas' ears!

It felt a sharp pain in its chest.

The Frost Giant looked down at his left chest, where a deep pit appeared, filled with broken ice and cracks.

The thunder explosions continued.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Barras subconsciously put his hands on his head and ran away in a hurry.

It saw out of the corner of its eye that the big purple flower on the roof was the one that caused it serious damage.

The strange flower aimed at him and sprayed out spherical stamens filled with destructive power. The stamens exploded when touched, and purple fragments flew everywhere.

If I get any closer, I might die here.

Baras hid far away and watched the car take Nibelungen away.

It smashed its fist hard on the sand dune next to it, killing a bunch of insects with white shells.

A group of people in armor came running from a distance and pointed at it.

Barras couldn't understand what they were saying.

Those people seemed to realize this as well. They dug out a transparent jar and after opening the lid, a strange fragrance emanated from inside.

"This is 'Mint for Brain'. You must understand what we are saying now."

"Giant, why did you kill the cockroaches we raised? They are the insects we use to explore for mineral veins."

"You killed our bugs, you need to pay compensation according to the relevant laws! We are the 19th Survey Team of Sand City, this is our ID, where are you from? Why are you doing this?"

"Yes, these cockroaches that we specially domesticated were painted with white paint to identify them from the outside world. They were very obedient and were killed by you without doing anything! Why did you do this!"

This group of Shell People who called themselves the Sand City Exploration Team began to accuse Balas.

The frost giant had never seen such a scene before, and it took him a while to react.

"How dare you speak rudely to a frost giant just for a group of bugs?" Baras laughed angrily, pointing at the dead bugs on the ground.

"That's not just any bug! It's a work bug!"

"Yes, they have made great contributions and found several borax mines! They are good partners of the exploration team!"

"If you don't want to die, get out of here!"

Barras was furious.

What kind of people are these! If it didn't want to save some energy, it would have wanted to trample these villains to death.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"You have to be reasonable, giant!"

"We are not afraid of you. We have a police station in Sand City. Don't think you can bully others just because you are big!"

"That's right. That's right."

"It's not like there haven't been giants in prison before!"

Baras was furious and swung his fist at the fragile shell people. The shell people immediately fled in all directions, burrowing into the sand like insects in fear.

However, within a few days, three purple floats found Barras in the desert.

Three extraordinary beings got off the float, each of them had a powerful aura, and they were all dragon descendants.

The leader, holding a crossbow, said, "We are the detectives from the Shacheng Police Station. You are suspected of sabotaging exploration and intentionally injuring people. Please come with us and assist us in the investigation."

Baras tried to escape, but was hit by a firecracker and injured, and was pinned to the ground by three Dragonborn inspectors.

"Giant, if you try to resist again, we will have no choice but to tie you up and drag you back on the ground."

Barras's mind flashed with the image of being dragged on the ground in disgrace.

It finally chose to surrender.

Escorted by three detectives, Barras walked through many sand dunes and arrived at the city called Sand City.

The Sand City is not big, but there are many extraordinary people in it. Even the roses planted on the outer wall are lethal. There are also some auras in it that make Balas feel terrified.

The court ruled that Barras's destruction of public property was unintentional, but he intentionally injured others and attacked law enforcement officers, but fortunately no one was injured.

Taking into account that it was a giant from the Land of Mist and did not understand the order of the outside world, and the fact that the survey team chose to forgive him, the final sentence was to detain Barras for 15 days and to carry out 30 days of compulsory labor in the north of the city.

In the prison cell of Sand City, Baras finally realized that the Shell People were no joke.

Here there are burly ice and snow monsters, crazy skeletons, sinister ghosts, and strange beasts formed from bamboo.

"What are you looking at? Are you looking for a beating?"

"Hey, I'll stab you with a knife later to give you some exercise."

"Get away from me, you savage!"

…

The characters in it were all very vicious, which gave Barras a huge shock.

Although it was quite powerful, it had still been beaten up a few times in the past few days. Whenever it fought back against the attackers, it would yell for help to attract the guards, and it would be Balas who would be reprimanded and warned.

For the first time, the giant felt that the outside world was both complex and terrifying.

After the detention, the voluntary labor part was much easier, which was to plant trees outside the city.

All Barras has to do is dig a hole.

It cannot do the delicate work of planting trees, watering and tamping the earth, and it will not be asked to do it. It is the reed people and bamboo people who work together and they are very skilled.

Here, however, Barras is very popular.

Because the Frost Giant's body is made up of ice elements, it releases cold air all over its body, allowing everyone who is working in the hot weather to feel cool.

"Fortunately, there is Barras."

"The frost giants are really good at engineering. I really wish there were more of them."

"Barras, help us cool down the jam and ale bar."

“Thank you so much!”

Barras found that the Yao people outside the prison were easy to deal with. As long as you worked with them, you could quickly get familiar with them.

The Yao clan is never stingy when it comes to their own people.

Baras ate beef jerky, salt fish and grapes, drank mead and ale, and became friends with the tree people.

On the penultimate day of the voluntary labor, someone found Barras.

"Mr. Baras, I am Sharo, the vice president of the Sand City Mutual Aid Foundation. We have heard about your deeds and are very interested in you. We sincerely invite you to join our foundation."

"foundation?"

Barras had never heard of the organization.

"Yes."

The box-carrying cactus named Sha Luo introduced: "The Sand City Mutual Aid Foundation was founded by Prince Walnut. It was originally an organization to raise funds for the Restoration Army. However, as it has grown, it has now become a comprehensive organization with the goal of raising project funds for all members."

"The members of our foundation include the famous physician Mr. Bingjiao, the swordsmanship master Mr. Fujianbei, the gardener master Mr. Shawang Shak, the philanthropist and antique shop owner Ms. Mina, the well-known lamp maker in Yaocheng Mr. Dengshi, and the world-famous chess player Mr. Buma... We invite you to join, because we know that sooner or later you will become one of these famous people."

Barras was overwhelmed with emotion after hearing this.

These are all famous figures!

But it's taken a lot of beatings lately and is no longer the reckless giant it once was.

Barras asked warily, "What do you think I am capable of?"

"Don't pretend, Mr. Barras."

Sara whispered, "We already know that you are the Blood Knight's apprentice. A scholar in the Mist Country once witnessed you and the Blood Knight talking closely. The Blood Knight would never say so much to outsiders... Don't worry, we won't leak the secret."

This reason shocked Barras.

How did I become the apprentice of the Blood Knight?

But considering that I have nowhere to go now...

Barras immediately said seriously: "Since you invite me so sincerely, I will join. If it is not suitable, I will withdraw at any time."

"Of course, don't worry, you will definitely be satisfied."
