Chapter 1609

Slude jumped up suddenly, like a swift female leopard, and said loudly, "Joan! I'll go with you!"

Logan grabbed his daughter and scolded angrily: "You girl, why do you always bully Joan? Don't you know that this is annoying? You are not like this usually, it is really inexplicable!"

"I didn't bully Joan... I was just joking with him. He wouldn't hate me for such a trivial matter, would he?"

Slude couldn't help but change his face.

"That's hard to say. If I were Qiao An, I would definitely regard you as a bully, and I would like to stay away from you."

Haakon folded his arms across his chest, making no secret of his schadenfreude.

"I've heard that some naive little boys like girls but are too embarrassed to confess directly. Instead, they use different methods to bully each other and use this ridiculous way to show their sense of existence. Slude, there must be such fools among girls. Bar?"

Suddenly, Slude's cheeks were flushed, his eyes widened, and he yelled at his brother guilty: "How do I know? I'm not that naive fool!"

...

Joan walked out of Lord Custis's barracks. Through the door, he could vaguely hear Slude's reproach, and couldn't help but secretly slander.

"Slude has a loud voice, hot little pepper, always trying to bully me, this is not allowed!"

How can the face of the majestic mage be rubbed by the little girl at will, so I don't want to lose face?

Joan decided to record this account in a small notebook first, and when she learns the fifth-ring "Malicious Transformation" in the future, she will temporarily turn Slude into a hamster or a bear. In short, the animal with a rounder face is better. Come and rub her face myself, so that I can get angry!

Just as he was thinking about it, a strange call suddenly came from behind him.

"Hey! The guy in front looks familiar from the back. Could it be brother Joan?"

Hearing his name being mentioned, Qiao An subconsciously stopped, looked back, and couldn't help being slightly startled.

The man who had called him just now was standing in front of a barracks on the side of the road, a pale man in a black velvet cloak. His left hand was hidden in the sleeve of the wide cloak, and his right hand was holding an obsidian staff exuding scorching magic power. He was looking up and down towards him with malicious eyes, and a fake smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth .

"It seems that I am not mistaken, it is really little brother Qiao An. It has been almost two years since the Castle in the Clouds left. Hehe, I didn't expect you to fall from such a high place, and you were lucky enough to survive... ..."

"Are you disappointed to see that I'm still alive?" Joan asked "Snake Hand" Sharman coldly.

The corners of Shaman's mouth twitched slightly, and he said with a fake smile: "How could it be? Brother Joan, there was a conflict between us, but that was all in the past. Since you are also wearing a military uniform, you will not be able to fight in the future. We are comrades-in-arms, why not put aside the past grievances and turn enemies into friends, what do you think?"

Turn enemies into friends? Is it really that easy?

Sharman pretended to be friendly, but Qiao An didn't dare to take it seriously.

Even if Sharman didn't care that he and Clark destroyed Henry Baldwin's evil breeding experiment, he wouldn't forget the "Gantias Root" that he took away. Otherwise, why bothered to hunt him down so hard?

Sure enough, when Joan was thinking about this matter, Sharman coughed twice and brought up the old matter as if nothing had happened.

"Brother Joan, in fact, there is no personal grievance between you and me. When I chased you down, I was mainly ordered by the higher-ups of the church to take back the 'Gantias Root' you took from Henry Baldwin." .”

"Actually, you don't need to tell me that the 'Gantias Root' is useless to you. Brother Joan, can you return that thing to me?"

"I'm sorry, the tree root you mentioned is indeed useless to me, and I threw it away a long time ago." Joan replied lightly.

"Really?" Sharman stared at him dubiously, "Where did you throw it?"

"The Mijiu River near Shizhu Town has probably drifted into the sea at this moment."

Shaman's face twitched violently again, barely resisting the urge to yell, and took a deep breath to calm down his bursting mentality.

"Mr. Sharman, as you said, there is no serious grievance between us, and now we have to fight against a common enemy. I don't want to care about the past. I hope you will do what you say, and leave."

Joan didn't want to make friends with people like Shaman, and it was enough to maintain the standpoint of "everything should be kept in the river". After expressing his standpoint, he turned around and left.

"Brother Joan, wait a minute!"

Shaman flicked his sleeve suddenly, showing the poisonous snake attached to his left wrist, and stopped in front of Joan.

Joan stopped and stared coldly at this sinister and cunning man.

"What do you want to do?"

"Hey~ Brother Qiao An, don't be afraid, we are comrades in the same camp, so we won't be rough on you in this barracks where people come and go."

"But having said that, since we both intend to turn enemies into friends, we should at least shake hands and express our sincerity. I don't think you will object?"

Shaman slowly raised the live snake arm with black back and white belly, swallowing letters, and showing venomous fangs, and with a smirk on his face, he moved the snake hand closer to Joan, as if shaking hands with him.

Qiao An stared at the venomous snake that was twisting in the air and gradually approaching him. He couldn't help feeling a chill in his heart, and finally resisted the urge to retreat.

"What's the matter, Brother Qiao An, I took the initiative to shake hands with you with enthusiasm! You don't even give this little face, it seems that you don't regard me, Shaman, as a friend from the bottom of your heart!"

Sharman put on an air of grievance, but the pride in his eyes revealed his true state of mind.

Joan could see that the villain was trying to give himself an "offensive power". If he refused to "shake hands" with him, it would be tantamount to showing cowardice and being ridiculed by him.

Joan gritted his teeth, raised his right hand unwilling to show weakness, and grabbed the ferocious poisonous snake.

At the same time, he put his left hand into his jacket pocket, gripped the brass sword hilt tightly, and silently recited a mantra to activate the "Stone Skin Technique" attached to the diamond belt buckle. Rock texture.

Qiao An is not the kind of reckless character who rushes forward and does everything to show off. Of course, he will not escape Sharman's provocation, but at the same time he will be fully prepared.

Although the poisonous snake's fangs are sharp, they are not as good as fine gold weapons, and it is not so easy to bite through Joan's right hand blessed with the "Stone Skin Technique".

In addition, if Sharman really took the opportunity of shaking hands to turn his face and commit murder, Joan would not be polite to him. The brass sword hilt held in his left hand can activate magic power at any time and turn it into an indestructible "rune sword". Cut Sharman's vicious "snake hand" in two.
