    When night fell over the Fatigal Oasis, Tomad frowned and walked out of Elder Gangyan's residence, walked through the soft grass beside the holy lake, and prepared to return to his tent.  After the welcome banquet ended hastily, Tomad had a long conversation with Elder Gang Yan, but the doubts in his heart only increased.  Elder Gang Yan has a calm personality and a wise mind that are rarely seen among barbarian orcs, but he showed uncharacteristic arrogance during the banquet.  If he showed that he knew the ancient language of the wild beasts, it was a shock, then the lively conversation with the giants from beginning to end could not be said to be a shock. Instead, it forced the envoy in charge of the banner of the Savage Beast King into a very embarrassing situation.  The legend that giants are loyal allies of the king of barbarians has long been rooted in the hearts of the people.  If Fatiguere City, which was blessed by the God of March, also had giants as allies, the identity of His Majesty Zulu Gritous would become embarrassing, and it might even shake his status.  Elder Gangyan is not a person with great ambitions. After getting along with each other these days, Tomad can be sure of this. So what is his purpose in doing this?  With many doubts, Tomad turned around the winding path between two rows of animal skin tents. His tent was already in front of him, but Tomad suddenly stopped, and a thought flashed through him like lightning.  The thoughts in his mind made his back stiffen, and his golden eyes showed a look of horror.  Elder Gang Yan placed himself in an extremely high-profile position. His approach attracted all the attention of the Barbarian King's envoys, so that Thomas almost did not enter the other party's field of vision, especially in the end when Elder Gang Yan announced that the banquet had ended early.  This action shows that he has high prestige and status in Fatiguere City.  Reminiscent of the cold eyes shown by the envoy leader when he finally left, Tomad's right hand subconsciously reached to his waist and tightly grasped the hilt of the Griffin Sword.  Elder Gang Yan is in great danger now!  Tomad has never been so remorseful. He had long been aware of Elder Gang Yan's unusual behavior, but he only had doubts in his heart, but did not think deeply about the possible dangers.  He turned around as quickly as possible and walked quickly in the direction he came from. At the same time, he prayed secretly - whether it was Bablupa, the Lord of Justice, or the March God of the Barbarian Beastmen's faith, please bless Elder Gangyan for his safety.  Due to the anxiety in his heart, Tomad's steps seemed to be extremely fast, but before he could go very far, he had to stop, pressed his hand on the hilt of his sword, and squinted his eyes at the three barbarian orc roaring warriors blocking the way.  .  "Good evening, distinguished envoys of the Barbarian King." Tomad tried his best to say in a calm tone, and at the same time managed to squeeze out a smile.  It would be best if you could just deal with it. Saying a few words would save more time than killing the three people in front of you.  "You have been tired from the journey and have rested so soon? Do you still need anything? Tomad is happy to help you." "That's great. What I need is your head as the price for rejecting the banner of the Barbarian King.  "The roaring warrior at the head is extremely tall and majestic, and looks more ferocious and terrifying than Don Kaba. "Tanari Thunder Horn said that you are also a problem and must be killed together." "I am also a problem?"  Ma De felt his heart suddenly sink. He had already guessed what might happen, but when it was confirmed by the other person's mouth, he still felt a chill to his bones.  "So, Tanari Thunder Horn must have sent people to assassinate Elder Gangyan?" "That's probably the case. I don't plan to care about that matter." The tall roaring warrior moved his wrist and then untied it from his waist.  The next one is an astonishingly large bronze hammer, "Tanari Thunderhorn wants to take your head back to His Majesty Zulu Gritos, but I don't intend to follow his orders exactly. Boy,  Stand still, I will move very quickly and won't cause you much pain." Tomad's next move was completely beyond the Roaring Warrior's expectations.  This roaring warrior looked rough and rude, but he was actually one of Tanari Thunderhorn's confidants. When he raised his great hammer, he had already hinted with his eyes that the two people behind him would take action.  But he didn't expect that Tomad would actually turn around and run wildly, his movements as smooth as a water bird skimming the surface of the holy lake.  "Cunning boy!" the barbarian orc roaring warrior spat angrily, and chased after him with heavy steps. He was very confident in his running speed, but he didn't expect that he had just chased two tents, and he was in front of him.  It was filled with a silver-white sword light.  The gryphon sword easily sliced ??through the thick neck of the barbarian orc, and the gorget made of lizard scale armor barely acted as a barrier, let alone the skin and muscles underneath.  The orc staggered forward, then fell to the ground, blood gushing from the broken neck.  The powerful roaring warrior didn't even let out his last scream, only a series of faint grunts left between his squirming lips. ??The other two orcs didn't react until now. The leader's sudden death made them a little overwhelmed, and their pursuit also slowed down.  As the elite subordinates of Tanari Thunderhorn, they are certainly brave warriors, but this does not mean that their will is strong enough to ignore death.  The consequences of hesitation are usually bad, but now they are even more deadly.  Tomad seized this brief opportunity and rushed between the two barbarian orcs with an elegant glide. At the same time, the gryphon sword first passed quickly to the right, and then was handed over to his left hand like lightning, the blade stretched out.  The movements of coming out and retracting are blindingly fast.  Tomad continued to run forward without looking back. Behind him, the two barbarian orcs fell to the ground without saying a word. Blood gurgled out from the huge wounds on their chests, soaking them in the blink of an eye.  He wiped out the large area of ??sand beneath him.  Since the confrontation was very brief and neither side shouted loudly, it did not alarm any residents of Fatiguere.  The three barbarian beastmen who carried out the assassination mission were of course afraid of alerting others, and Tomad was equally unwilling to do so, because once the residents of Fatiguere were alerted, the messenger of the beast king's banner would certainly be surrounded, but as another  The target of the assassination, Elder Gang Yan, may be in greater danger.  Tomad knew very well what his assassination meant. It might be too late to rush over now, but he still ran with all his strength, hoping to be lucky enough to be ahead of the assassin - or time.  However, the gods in the sky are not always so kind after all. When Elder Gangyan's residence appeared in sight, Tomad couldn't help but hold his breath, and the hope in his heart burst like a bubble.  Many people gathered around the tent, and every mouth was tightly closed. Only later did Tomad realize that it was the unusual silence that made him mentally prepared.  Tomad used the Griffin Sword to lift up the thick animal skin door curtain. Under the light of the silver and red moons in the sky, he saw Elder Gangyan, who was wearing traditional tribal costumes, lying quietly inside the tent with a peaceful expression.  , as if falling asleep.  The old barbarian orc was completely unscathed, with only a bleeding scar on his chest.  It was this scar that killed Elder Gang Yan.  Sha Erda, who came earlier, stood in the tent with a pale face, and his voice was trembling and broken when he spoke, showing that his emotions were very confusing.  "Dun? Master Tomad, I heard the sound of fighting and immediately brought people overbut it was still a step too late" Tomad took two heavy breaths, leaned down, and carefully inspected Elder Gangyan.  body, especially the fatal wounds and any traces the murderer may have left.  This was a premeditated assassination, but the target was not unprepared.  Most of the furnishings inside the tent were turned to the ground and were in a mess.  Elder Gang Yan held a bone staff that was broken into two parts tightly in his hand. The body of the staff was cracked due to the hard swing and resistance. More than half of the skull at the head of the staff was missing. The cracked area was stained with blood. It was obvious that it had been hit at least once.  Once a certain murderer - most likely hit the other person's head, and caused a certain degree of damage.  "This stubborn old guy" Tomad murmured and complained, "You obviously know why do you choose to do this? If you want to help me block this trouble, it also depends on your ability.  Isn¡¯t it okay if you don¡¯t have this ability?¡± Of course, the deceased could not answer Tomad¡¯s question, and the young man had no intention of getting an answer.  Tomad took out the half-bone staff from Elder Gangyan's clenched fingers, then stood up, his golden eyes flashing with frightening cold flames.  His heart was completely filled with uncontrollable rage, his throat was parched with thirst, and he was in urgent need of the blood of his enemy to moisten it.  "Who did it?" Tomad asked in a tone as hard as gravel. He was not in the mood to worry about his tone, but the same was true of Sharda.  "I didn't see the murderer, butTanari Thunderhorn, the messenger leader of the Barbarian King's Banner, is no longer in his tent. Also missing are more than twenty Roaring Warriors." "Tanari Thunderhorn  " Tomad repeated the name softly, and then a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, "You said that only more than twenty roaring warriors were missing, so where are the wild giants? " "Where are the other roaring warriors?" "  His tent has been surrounded by our people, and all of them have been disarmed." Shah Erda replied in a low voice, "I asked Dun Kaba to stay there with twice as many people to monitor them  But in my opinion, they probably didn't know about this, because those guys were all sleeping soundly when they were surrounded. " "This is really strange. Didn't the messenger inform others about the assassination of Elder Gangyan.  ?" Tomad shook his head in confusion, but then he was so angry that he put this doubt behind his mind.     noodleFacing the residents of Fatiguere City who rushed in front of Elder Gangyan's residence, Tomad raised his hands high. The light cast by the sacred silver moon and red moon intertwined on him to form a blurry illusion, and at the same time gave him an unusually cold look.  The face was coated with a light red light.  "Our respected elder Gang Yan died in a despicable assassination. The perpetrator has no prestige and must be severely punished." Tomad raised his voice, and every word broke through the noise like a sharp knife cutting through caked camel milk.  , delivered to the ears of every Fatiguere City resident.  "I swear by the Silent Scepter of Sonata, Lord of the Black Moon, that I, Dun Tomad, will sacrifice the blood of Elder Gangyan with the murderer's head, even if it is an envoy sent by the King of Barbarian Orcs, Zulu Gritos!  "
