Chapter 99: Brother Goat

Facing the question from Leina of the Sun Knights, Xie Yaoyao signaled her to wait a moment, because he had already seen Feide wake up Olivia, who was uncontrolled.

Everyone's gaze turned to Olivia.

Taking a deep breath, the exhausted Storm Knight suppressed the sadness in her heart over the death of her companions and recounted the process of encountering the three Illuminati members in the Monster Forest one by one.

Finally, Olivia said through gritted teeth.

"I will definitely avenge Wendy, I swear!"

Wendy was the Knight member who had accompanied her to the end but had her throat slit by Qiaowani of the Illuminati.

Dying at the hands of a monster meant one's own ability was lacking.

But dying in betrayal made Olivia feel very self-blaming; she felt it was her poor judgment of character that had cost her subordinates their lives.

"Olivia, don't be too sad; right now, the Goddess Festival is what's important. We can't let that monster steal the Golden Apple and ruin the Goddess's sacrifice!"

Leina, as an old rival, couldn't help but step forward to comfort Olivia and cast her gaze toward Xie Yaoyao, who was wearing a mask and hadn't spoken the whole time.

Xie Yaoyao understood why the Illuminati people wanted to stab them in the back, but he couldn't understand why they had to kill that member of the Storm Knights.

Could it be that the gargoyle couldn't carry three people?

The reason couldn't be that sloppy!

In fact, there is a saying: the world is a huge amateur stage, and no matter how outrageous the reason, it is possible.

Regardless of why the Illuminati people did such a stupid thing, the development of events now was favorable to him.

Xie Yaoyao naturally couldn't let such an opportunity pass.

"I represent the Rose Kingdom in agreeing with Captain Leina's opinion; that monster is our common enemy! But the Goddess's Golden Apple will definitely be ours!"

After finishing his words, the faces of all the members of the Thorn Knights immediately showed confidence and pride.

Nie Yingying's eyes flickered; this guy had actually completely controlled the plot team in such a short time!

And Vivian, who was being pulled by her, finally couldn't resist the urge to speak; she walked forward boldly, striking a classic hands-on-hips pose, looking at Xie Yaoyao with her nostrils.

"What kind of nonsense are you talking about? We have four people, can we still lose to you? When I get the Golden Apple, you just wait to follow behind me and muddle through!"

Thinking about it, she felt it wasn't safe; what if this guy Linghu Chong stabbed her in the back?

So she continued.

"By the way, we're competing fairly; you're not allowed to use that little flower to drug me!"

Scratching her head, she thought again.

"And you're not allowed to use those vines to tie me up!"

Finally, Vivian, with her brows tightly furrowed, concluded.

"In short, you're not allowed to attack us; we must compete fairly!"

These words made Nie Yingying and everyone in the Sun Knights hang their heads in shame.

This idiot!

This isn't a demonstration; it's practically losing face to the ends of the earth!

How could the members of the Thorn Knights tolerate someone being disrespectful to the Baron, especially Feide, who was already preparing to draw his twin swords to teach this ignorant, arrogant woman a lesson.

"Alright!" Xie Yaoyao's one sentence made the members of the Thorn Knights calm down. "But let's be clear, the loser is not allowed to mention anything that happened in this mission to outsiders in the future, how about that?"

Eh?!

Not letting me brag about such good material?

Vivian's face immediately turned bitter!

"Caw caw!"

Lilisi is back!

"This island is very desolate; there is only a tall apple tree in the very middle of the island, and I have already seen that Golden Apple! Caw caw!"

"I didn't see that Traveler, which is very strange! Besides us, there are only some giants herding sheep on the island! Caw caw!"

"Giants? Herding sheep?"

It seems there is a mythological story with a plot about giants herding sheep, but that's not important; what's important is that those giants should be the guardians of the Golden Apple.

But the missing Traveler still made Xie Yaoyao somewhat concerned.

After sharing the news with everyone, Leina of the Sun Knights spoke up.

"The Goddess had a divine revelation; this year's guardians of the Golden Apple are Cyclopes. Let's set off!"

The group formed a team and walked toward the center of the island; Olivia naturally joined the ranks of the Sun Knights.

The four major kingdoms are in a competitive relationship, but they are not enemies; everyone's goal is to obtain the Golden Apple to complete the Goddess Festival, and the purpose of the competition is glory.

Now that the Storm Knights only had Captain Olivia left, Leina was naturally willing to accept her and protect her safely back to the Garden Kingdom.

As for why they didn't join Xie Yaoyao's team, one could tell just by looking at the proud expressions of the Thorn Knights members.

Leina, with her gentle personality, was definitely easier to accept; if it weren't for Xie Yaoyao saving everyone, the team would have split up by now.

"There are three Cyclopes ahead. Caw caw!"

Sure enough, after crossing a small mound, three Cyclopes about four or five meters tall were busy carrying huge sheep back to their original places one by one.

These huge sheep were not obedient; as soon as they were carried back, they would wobble away and wander around everywhere.

These three giants were clearly not very smart; they didn't know how to use fences or ropes to corral the sheep, just repeating the action of carrying the sheep back to the original place over and over again.

And Xie Yaoyao and the others watched as a sheep wandered up to their group, staring at them with its teacup-sized, beautiful eyes.

"Baa! What are you things?"

"Uh, we are not things, ptooey ptooey, we are... hey, are you looking for trouble, you sheep?"

Xie Yaoyao felt he had been insulted by this sheep.

The sheep lowered its head to take a bite of the grass on the ground, then raised its head to look at Xie Yaoyao, who was speaking.

"Baa! You are here to find the Golden Apple to complete the trial, right!"

"Eh!"

This sheep... something is not right!

The sheep continued to chew the grass unhurriedly, and after a long while, it spoke again.

"Baa! Baa! Feimosi has been trapped here for so long, finally waiting for you! The grass here doesn't taste good at all; hurry up and complete the trial!"

Xie Yaoyao blinked, a friendly smile appearing on his face.

"Brother Goat, how should I address you? And who is Feimosi?"

Who knew the sheep wouldn't pay him any mind at all, just staring at him blandly, and its gaze gradually became strange.

"Baa!"

The sheep suddenly turned its head and let out a huge, incomparable cry, immediately attracting the attention of the three Cyclopes.

It must be said that being stared at by three four-to-five-meter-tall monsters at the same time is quite stressful!

"Careful!"

"Engage the enemy!"

Nie Yingying and Leina's voices rang out almost simultaneously! ===== CHAPTER 100 =====
