Lord of the North
Chapter 320: escape
"Damn ants, I will definitely find this hatred!"
In a mountain forest far away from Port Ryan, the seriously injured "Gilbert" panted from a tree while cursing Jason.
Two days ago, Roland and the others exhausted their efforts to destroy him, but at the last moment, he summoned dozens of ghost servants who had been lurking around long ago.
They rushed to Jason without fear of death, and caused the energy in the body to explode, although they did not hurt Jason, because the strength of these ordinary ghost servants could not hurt him, let alone there are fifty others. The Spartan warrior stood by his side, but this also attracted the attention of Roland and the others.
That's why he took the opportunity to fight back Leonidas with a blow, then fled towards Port Lean, and finally escaped by jumping into the Chenhe River.
However, Roland in extreme anger urged the holy sword Durandall, the huge holy sword soared into the sky, and the dazzling holy light could be seen clearly from dozens of miles away.
The final result was that "Gilbert" was swept to half of his body by this terrifying sword light underwater, causing one of his arms to be torn to pieces from his shoulders, and he was struck by Hassan's dagger in the previous battle. He hurt his left eye, and now a ghastly force has been corroding his flesh and blood.
Bai Sensen's bones are also exposed, but fortunately, he has stopped the blood with his own power.
"Where does this power come from?"
"Gilbert" covered his eyes and sucked out a black mist, and then he stared at the energy with the only eye left, his expression a little uncertain.
He can be sure that all the energy in this world comes from him, and this black energy definitely does not come from himself.
"Visit from another world, this is my place." He smashed the energy in his hand fiercely, and he helped the tree beside him to stand up slowly and began to look at the surrounding environment.
Just after he jumped into the water, he immersed himself in the escape, where there was a chance to observe his escape route.
"Let's think of a way to mend this body. It's a pity to find a suitable body after all. It's a shame to ruin it like this."
He glanced at his broken half of his body, thought a little worried, and then walked away, seeing his walking posture as if he was not injured.

"My lord, my subordinates are incompetent and could not find the villain who escaped, but I have sent soldiers to search downstream along the Chenhe River."
The guard of La'an City was sweating profusely, and he knelt on the ground and did not dare to lift his head, because such a bad thing happened under his rule, and he could not escape the blame.
"Get up, you are not to blame."
Jason waved his hand and didn't blame it. No wonder that this kind of thing, the famous city guard, is indeed the strange "Gilbert" a bit difficult.
"But not only the downstream, but also the upstream send some people to search it, let the soldiers pay attention to safety, the enemy is not a good person to deal with."
"Yes, thank you for your compassion." Master Cheng Shou wiped his sweat, got up and said respectfully in gratitude.
His name is Esantos and he is more than fifty years old this year, but he is just an ordinary person. Fortunately, he has been sitting in the city guard position for so many years and has worked hard, keeping the Port of Lean in an orderly manner and has never been mixed up. And to those complicated political struggles, that's why he became an evergreen tree in the political circles of Hierro Province.
And he has been kind to others for so many years, and many powerful people with extraordinary strength owe him some favors more or less, and his management and punishment regulations are also relatively strict.
So much so that the people in Layan City and Layanport are unwilling to cause trouble under his rule. Otherwise, they will not only have a bad reputation, they may be fined, and even more terrible, they may be blacklisted by Layanport. This kind of thing is not something these businessmen are willing to accept.
It's just that when Santos learned that Jason had concealed his identity and came to Layan City the day before yesterday, he was even frightened when he went to the underground black market.
Although he has a very good reputation and ability, he can manage a mixed port in an orderly manner.
But he didn't think that Jason would turn a blind eye on things like the black market, and maybe he would be punished, so he even thought about his explanation.
Then he got an accident in the black market, where someone intercepted and killed a group of nobles and upper-class people in Le'an City.
When he heard this news, he felt that his world was in darkness, and Santos almost passed out. He was an ordinary person after all, and he also had family members he cherished very much.
In case Jason had any accident inside, he, the manager of Ryan City, would be miserable.
The soldiers and soldiers in the province of El Hierro and the Iron Fang will not listen to his explanation. I heard that the original six thousand troops of El Hierro City encountered them when they encountered them~lightnovelpub.net~ but they moved the attack without saying a word. .
Fortunately, His Royal Highness Jason did not pursue it, nor did he mention the illegal existence of the black market. It is not easy to meet an enlightened monarch.
"Leonida, how is your injury?"
Watching Santos slowly leave, Jason turned his gaze to Leonida on the side. He was hit by Gilbert that night.
"Thank you for your concern, I'm fine, just some skin injuries."
Leonidas raised his hand to his chest, but that night he was eroded by a corrosive force, which caused him to fail to catch up when he was hunted down afterwards.
"His Royal Highness, since he has escaped, then we should be more careful in the future." Michaels said softly, his calm expression seemed to be indifferent to this hidden danger.
"Is he really that scary?"
Jason raised his hand and touched his cheek. That night, apart from some of the ghost servants who blew themselves up around him, some others launched a close attack on him, leaving a wound on his face if he didn't pay attention.
However, his previous appearance was a bit lacking in masculinity, and the addition of this scar made his aura rise a lot.
"I don't know, but it was not particularly difficult to deal with before he grew up."
Michaels shook his head, there are not many things that he can snoop about the existence of the origin of the world.
"But he represents the old age from the source of time and space, and it is indeed a big trouble. Fortunately, it is not his body, or his body has long been decayed, otherwise he would not find a human body to deal with it."
"You mean, the original Gilbert is dead?" Jason was a little surprised.
"Yes."
