Chapter 175: The Hunter's Cabin and ...... Message!
If most people in the imperial capital choose an area suitable for hiding, there may be many answers, such as the lower city with a large number of people and the endless demolition of illegal buildings, or the urban center area with dense flow of foreign population, or scattered in all directions, with small pieces dotted in the minority and religious gathering areas of the imperial capital.
In the hearts of a thousand people, there may be nine hundred and ninety-nine answers.
But if you ask where the best place to hide, then most people will point to the ground under their feet after thinking about it.
Bang dang!
So when Nim said he could find a place to be absolutely hidden, and lifted the manhole cover of a remote alleyway, Luan wasn't surprised.
"Follow me, or you'll really get lost!"
Nim looked back at Luen with a smile, half jokingly and half seriously, looked around at no one, and jumped down, followed by Dalena.
Lu En looked down, it was deep and dark, but there was no unpleasant smell, and he jumped down.
An arm appeared from behind him, pushing the manhole cover back into place.
Boom!
With his feet on the ground, Lu En bent his knees slightly to remove the impact, it was about three meters above the ground, not as deep as it looked, and there was darkness all around, except for a few rays of light from the manhole cover overhead.
Click!
But then there was a firelight, and Nim was holding a candle in his hand, and his face was flickering and dark, looking a little scary, as if he was making a ghost movie, and his laughter was even more penetrating, but he didn't think it himself, and began to introduce Luen as he walked.
The underground drainage pipes in the imperial capital, or it can no longer be simply said that the drainage pipes, in the eyes of many people, this is simply an intricate underground city.
As the capital from the dynasty to the federal period, the imperial capital has carried out a total of three major underground works, and countless small and fragmented works have allowed nearly 10 million people to live on it in peace, otherwise the garbage and waste water produced every day alone would be enough to flood the entire city.
However, the result is also an extremely complex underground system, even with the blueprints, no one dares to pack a ticket to transfer out of it, so it has also become a shelter and hiding place for many people, including many eroders.
And where they are now is an underground passage that has been abandoned due to renovation.
Lunn became more and more sure that there should be someone behind Nimes, and this information was not secretive when he said that it was not secret, but it was not something that could be obtained in a day or two.
Not to mention finding a decent hiding place.
I don't know how many times I turned around behind Nim, and if Lu En was probably an ordinary person, he would have been dizzy now, not to mention anything else, just those forks and entrances that looked the same made people feel a strong sense of fear.
It's very easy to get lost in a place like this.
"It's here!"
With the sound of Nรฎmes also seemed to be relieved, Luen's keen eyesight saw a light appear in front of him, and sure enough, after turning a corner, dim oil lamps appeared on the wall, lined up.
In a blocked alleyway in front of him, there were tables, cabinets, sofas, and other objects, a hammock next to it, and even picture frames and the like on the wall.
Although it is simple, in the dim light, it looks a little bit of home.
Or maybe it's somebody's home, but obviously, it won't be the two of Nimes leaning comfortably on the couch.
Because Luen was on the wall, he saw several conspicuous skulls, similar to some kind of beast, but whether it was the horns or the sharp fangs, they told the characteristics that were different from ordinary beasts.
One of the foreheads also has protruding spines, which combine to form a crown-like shape.
There is no doubt that these should come from the eroders or even ...... Evil spirits!
"This is what you two set up?"
Lu En walked to the other side of the sofa and sat down, saw that there was still a newspaper from a few days ago in his hand, and asked knowingly.
"Of course it's not us, ah, I'm so hungry, get me something to eat. โ
Nim slumped on the couch and stretched, tilting his head at Dalena, who rolled his eyes, walked to the counter and pulled out a few boxes of beef jerky and threw them to Nim.
"And me, I want it too!"
The masked lady Nosha jumped out of nowhere and stretched out two small sleeves.
"You don't even have a body, and it's a waste to eat it. โ
Unmoved, Delena sat cross-legged next to Nimes, reached out and tore open a box, and slowly passed it to her mouth.
"Ahhh
The blackened cat-faced mask pounced like a puppy and barked pitifully.
It seems that after this time, the relationship between Nim and Delena has improved dramatically, and it is even possible that there are other emotions in it.
Lu En saw all this in his eyes, and he also felt that it was quite normal, two young boys and girls had been in contact for a long time, sharing weal and woe, the so-called long-term love.
Ahem, you can't think crookedly!
After stuffing a few large handfuls of jerky into his mouth, Nim turned his head to look at Luen: "This is the hunter's hut, he has been in the imperial capital for a long time, although he looks fierce, he is actually a very good person." โ
"You'll know if you've been in contact with him, he's like the main character in a lot of Western movies, strong and bold, a reliable man like a rock. โ
I think you're like the main character in the movie, Nimes.
Lu En looked at the walls blackened by oil lamps, and there were ventilation outlets around them, which made this place not look stuffy, and it also showed that the time that the original owner stayed here should not be short.
Hunter?
He swept over the skulls of several eroders, and suddenly his ears moved, and he noticed some small movement, and looked sharply in the direction he entered, and a figure wearing a felt hat with disheveled hair and beard appeared, and his eyes fell on him at the same time.
It was a burly man with rough skin, a long scar on his cheek that reached to his ear, and his eyes were unusually sharp like falcons, nailed to Luen's face.
"Uncle Hunter, you're back!"
Nim immediately jumped up, swallowed the jerky in his mouth, and looked at the figure with some surprise.
"This is the friend you rescued?"
When the hunter saw Nim, his eyes softened a little, but he was still vigilant when he fell on Luen, although Luen had hidden his strength, but based on some innate instinct, the hunter still felt a huge sense of threat in him.
"No, it failed, it was a trap!"
Nim's face suddenly darkened: "Fortunately, Lune saved me, otherwise I would definitely fall into the hands of the Red Glove." โ
"But it also implicated him, so I took him to the hut to avoid it, and by the way, I thought about the next step. โ
Even now, Nimes still has no intention of giving up.
"Almost no one has ever succeeded in saving people from the hands of the Red Glove, and I think it's better for you to give up. โ
The hunter walked in from the outside, and Lu En saw that he was dragging the corpse of a monster similar to a python behind him, but on his long body, several pairs of pale hands that had lost his vitality made his scalp numb, and swayed with the hunter's movements.
"But if you really want to save people, I heard something that might be an opportunity. โ
The hunter threw the monster aside with a bang, and suddenly turned to Nim and said, "It seems that someone is in contact and has organized some guys who are about to get out of control, and they are going to attack the headquarters of the Red Glove!"
