The battle began to heat up.

The width of the tunnel was limited, and the forces of both sides could not be spread, and only those in the front row could engage the enemy.

As a result, the adventurers and soldiers could only send the most powerful men to rush towards them.

Nottingham, Zamora, and Arlen rushed to the front, two long swords and a hammer that made the thieves cry wolf.

Mira provides medical support in their rear, Count Henir provides long-range fire support as a magician, and Suzuki Takamine, who has not yet fully recovered, protects Mira and Count Henir.

In the face of the attack of these high-end combat forces, those thieves who intercepted were defeated for a while, and they kept retreating.

Digging holes with magic is not unique to Artoria's ability, and the enemy dug several passages in front of the tunnel that extended backwards.

When everyone was attracted by the fierce battle ahead, the enemy in the passage suddenly broke through the wall and attacked the flanks and above of the team.

The adventurers who were caught off guard and the knights and soldiers brought by Count Henir were suddenly confused, and several were immediately injured.

Count Henir immediately ordered Mira and Suzuki to return to support, and he also increased the output of firepower.

Neither side dared to use large-scale magic in the tunnel, for fear of collapsing the tunnel and burying themselves.

The addition of Mira and Suzuki Takamine provided a respite for the team that had been attacked, especially since Mira treated several seriously injured people in the first place, which greatly boosted the morale of the team.

After the team stabilized its position, Uncle Nikolai and Suvorov, who had solved the sneak attack on the enemy in the rear, rushed over to support

The situation was suddenly reversed, and the thieves who attacked were defeated one after another.

In the shadows behind, a sneering Diana tossed aside a thief who had passed out and then made up for the fatal blow.

With the addition of the Demon King, the battle is soon over, and the thieves who block and sneak attack are either dead or fleeing.

Count Henier decided to let the team rest for a while, he saw that Suzuki Gaofeng next to him had something to say, so he said: "Don't worry, we have just been attacked, everyone's spirit will inevitably be extremely nervous, too nervous will make people easily mentally exhausted, now we need to relax properly, and then cheer up to be vigilant." ”

'At the same time we have some wounded people who need to be treated. ”

Suzuki thought that Count Henir had a point, so he gave up his intention to urge.

Count Henir, who also had a storage ring on his hand, immediately took out two large barrels of ale, and then said to the crowd: "Quench your thirst with a drink, and we'll go kill those [beep beeps]!"

The adventurers and soldiers cheered, they were indeed a little thirsty after being in the cave for so long.

The ale wine provided by the Earl was a good wine, with a good taste and texture, and the degree was not high, and he usually drank it as water.

Everyone knew the weight, no one was greedy for a cup, everyone took a wine scoop and drank a scoop or two.

At this time, Mira was treating an adventurer who had been stabbed in the thigh, and she was the only one who did not go drinking like everyone else.

Count Henir came up to her, and after she had finished her treatment, handed her a jug made of silver and encrusted with many precious stones, and said, "Drink some water, no one has ever used this jug." ”

"Thank you, Count. Mira politely thanked Count Henir.

Count Henir smiled and said, "Don't be polite to me, your father has visited me a few times before. At that time, I saw that your family was so rich, and I wanted my unsuccessful boy to marry you and come home. ”

After he finished speaking, he laughed to himself, and then he said: "It's good that I didn't insist after your father refused, otherwise that stinky boy in my family would have tried his best to marry the queen and this would have made people laugh for decades." ”

Mira drank some water, and when he returned the silver jug to Count Henir, Count Henir pushed the jug to Mira, sighed, and said, "This jug is for you, and it was given to me by your father." ”

"Your family's business...... Alas...... You can keep it for a miss. ”

After he had finished speaking, he turned and went away to talk to Uncle Nikolai and Suvorov.

Mira took the kettle and found a maple leaf carved out of ruby on the neck.

After a few seconds of gloom, Mira hung the kettle on her belt and continued to treat the wounded.

Count Henir directly took out two bottles of good wine and handed them to the Demon King and the Commander, and said with a smile: "Quench your thirst first, thanks to the two gentlemen just now, otherwise we will be surrounded on all sides, and I am afraid that we will be defeated in the end." ”

Uncle Nikolai and Suvorov smiled, opened the bottle and raised it in salute Count Henir, and then blew on the bottle in one go.

At this time, Count Henir continued to ask with a smile on his face: "After this ** is settled, I invite the two of you to dinner." ”

Uncle Nikolai and Suvorov looked at each other, and then Uncle Nikolai said: "Then the teacher and I will disturb Your Excellency." ”

Count Henier left satisfied, as a rule, as long as the other party did not refuse his invitation, then he would not refuse his offer, and the next big deal was the negotiation of treatment.

After Count Henir left, Uncle Nikolai turned to Diana, who was not far away, and asked, "Nana, what do you think of this person?"

Diana just said "hehe" twice, and then said nothing more.

Not long after, the rested crowd set off again, and the two empty barrels were thrown aside.

This time, everyone raised their vigilance, and the people in the rear kept an eye on the stone walls on both sides and overhead, for fear that someone would rush out of it again.

After walking for nearly a hundred meters and then turning a corner, several large holes appeared in front of everyone, and the person who had just sneaked up on it obviously started from here.

After walking for a while, a faint smell of spices wafted into everyone's nostrils.

Count Henir, who was having a family affair with Suzuki Takamine, frowned, and immediately ordered: "All rest! The enemy is not far away, let's rush over!"

The whole team immediately picked up their spirits, and then made their way to the depths of the passage with small steps.

After walking a few hundred meters, an underground cave with a radius of about 100 meters and a height of twenty or thirty meters appeared in front of everyone.

There are braziers in the cave, which illuminate the place.

The ground here is very flat, there is no soil on the ground, but there is a huge circular magic circle.

The kidnapped children were tied up and seemed to be knocked unconscious, and they were placed on the magic circle according to a certain pattern.

The crimson lines of the magic array stretched all the way to the two stone doors on the cave walls that were more than ten meters high and several meters wide.

There were not many patterns in the two stone doors, except for the pattern of an animal in the shape of a bear inlaid in stone, and Charles hanging on them like a dachshund.
