There seemed to be a ghost lurking in the dark sewers, and an inexplicable cool breeze blew in the tunnels, and the sound of the wind swept through the cold hard stones and made a "whining" sound like a ghost howling. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Anna clutched the corner of her husband's coat, not daring to let go, and the dim candlelight illuminated the seven-man forward team, and the addition of Kobold Ketuma brought a glimmer of light to them.

It held the candle resting in the crack of the stone on its head, and the hot dripping wax tears froze on top of the kobold's brick-red scales, but Ketuma didn't care about it as if he didn't feel the scorching heat.

"We're almost at the exit, Lord Thor—" Knight's sword at his back, Ketuma said excitedly to Thor as he led the group around a corner.

Thor looked up, but couldn't see anything clearly, all he could see was pitch black, and perhaps only Ketuma could see in such darkness with his bright red eyes that emitted infrared rays.

"Ah......h

"What's wrong?Ketuma?" Thor and the others stopped, Kratos vigilantly put his hand on his waist, and everyone's nerves tensed instantly.

"Ahh......h

"Lord Thor, could you please pick up your pace a little—" It took two quick steps forward with its calves, and felt anxious.

"If your people need help, then send us here—" Thor strode to signal Marten and the others behind him to speed up, and he told Ketuma again, "Since the way out is ahead, just send us here." ”

The kobold listened to Thor's words and did not stop, he buried his head in a hurry, his slender tail drooping on the ground, and dragged forward, as if speaking to himself, and whispered: "But the teacher said that knights must keep their promises, and I promised you to send you out of here, and I must not break my word." ”

Thor had a helpless expression, for the first time he felt that this little kobold was really a bit dead-headed, and he did not slow down, but increased his speed and almost trotted up, while patiently explaining to Ketuma:

"But don't your people need help even more?"

This time the kobold did not speak, it lowered its head, buried its head and hurried forward, the candle was blown back and forth by the cold wind blowing in front of it, and the light suddenly dimmed, and Ketuma seemed to recognize a dead reason, and did not listen to Thor's words, but only hastened his pace and hurried forward.

The two of them almost trotted up in front, but Malten in the back suffered, his physical strength was not good, and now he has to carry his daughter on his back, he has been out of breath after walking for so long, and his legs are even weaker when he runs at this time, he stumbles and almost falls to the ground, but fortunately, a pair of big hands reached out in time to help him.

"Ah...... Master Kratos...... Thank you......" I didn't expect the iceberg-like Kratos to suddenly hold himself up, Malten hurriedly thanked him, and his daughter Winnie on his back also secretly glanced at the vicious-looking uncle with big twinkling eyes.

"I'll come—" Pointing to Winnie on Malten's back, Kratos said something that surprised the Maltens.

"Uh-" Malten, who was already running, couldn't keep up, and he felt that his daughter's arm was going numb.

"Good...... Okay......" But to let Kratos carry Winnie, somehow there is always a strange feeling in my heart, is it really okay for this fierce and murderous guy to carry a child?

Although they were entangled, Saul and Ketuma, who were running in front, would not wait for them, and Marten had to hand Winnie over, and the little girl was very sensible and motionless, Kratos took it easily, and put Winnie on his shoulder, looking stress-free, as if he could not feel the weight of the little girl.

The wind was getting cooler and cooler, and the stench that had been lingering on the tip of his nose had dissipated considerably, and in the light of the candle above Ketuma's head, which was almost extinguished, Thor could see a filthy round lid made of broken cattails with a stone against the mouth of the cave, and it seemed that this was the exit.

"Lord Thor, it's here—" The two stopped at the exit of the sewer, and Ketuma stepped forward and kicked open the tattered lid and kicked away a large rock that stood in the way, and the clear night sky appeared in front of Thor's eyes.

It was about the same place as they had first entered, under an old stone bridge, flanked by streets on either side, and the streets were pitch black, and Thor could only dimly see the outlines of the houses.

"This is the lower area of Worms—" As the kobold's voice fell, a panting Malten and Kratos rushed over.

"Well-have a good journey, Lord Thor, and here is where Kettuma is leaving—" It looked anxious, but still finished its etiquette, bowed to Thor again, and turned to run.

"It's really out...... Whew...... This is really the lower part of Worms. The fat merchant looked around and said breathlessly.

Thor didn't speak, he looked at the handful of candles that lit in the dark sewers, getting farther and farther away from him, and his heart couldn't help but feel a pang of worry.

"What has happened to the people of Ketuma, is it dangerous?" this eccentric, rigid kobold who loves to drill the horns of the bull made a deep impression on Thor as completely different from the sewer dwellers that Morey had described as living, and Thor couldn't help but feel worried about Ketuma.

"Marten, can you find your way back to the warehouse from here?" but Momentarily Thor asked the merchant with a pursed lip as if he had made up his mind.

"Of course, no problem, we'll be back in the warehouse in a moment—" Marten, who was breathing a little, replied confidently.

"Okay, Kratos, you protect them back to the warehouse first. Saul's words surprised everyone, and the air instantly froze, and Marten opened his mouth wide and stammered to Saul:

"Great, my lord—where are you going——?"

"I'm a little relieved to get off Ketuma, so I'll go over and have a look. ”

"I'll go—" Kratos began, apparently thinking that the sewer side was more dangerous.

"......" Marten's fat face showed struggle, he was most afraid that Thor had an accident, he still owed Glen Meyer a lot of money, if Thor didn't intercede with the Conrad family, then it would be pointless for him to escape with his family today.

"Don't worry, I'm in control. Saul smiled and comforted everyone, "Besides, I'm not a helpless scholar. As he spoke, he pressed the ring-headed broadsword on his waist, which was more than a meter long, and said solemnly:

"Ketuma helped us out of this damn sewer, I'm not used to owing favors to people, and if I have the chance, I'd better pay it back soon. ”

As he spoke, he looked at Kratos again and said to him, "And there may not be no people chasing and killing in the lower area, Kratos, you have to protect Marten, and I will go back to the warehouse to find you soon." ”
