The group walked around the Fire Dragon Square, passing a young girl who was leading a female goat and selling goat's milk in cups. Vanessa remembered more details about the city. The fire dragon's huge mouth with three layers of fangs wide open pointed to a sloping redstone alley, when he first entered the sleeping dragon city, he was still arguing with Brant because of Katrina, what a pleasant time it was, the air was filled with the smell of male hormones and perfume, and there were girls selling fried cod in the alley, the buds were blooming, and the taste was hundreds of times stronger than that of cod. At that time, he was still a handsome young man who was just showing his light, and the world was nothing more than a large brothel in his eyes, and he could be at any time when he thought about it.

But all she wanted now was an underground passage.

They descended a flight of stairs to a casino hidden under a cotton warehouse. It offers the ugliest prostitutes and the toughest thugs in town, as well as tables that will sell thousands of cards and perpetually sour beers. Except for outsiders who don't know the truth, locals rarely come to this terrible place.

Some things never seem to change, and the days of underground casinos are still the same. The barrel ceiling was blackened with oil smoke, the floor was hard bluestone, and the air smelled of smoke, rotten meat, and uncleaned vomit. The gamblers at the table roared loudly, and from time to time they changed from invective to beating and kicking, and in the dim light they looked ghostly rather than alive.

God bless Kama's soul.

Vanessa remembered that this was the path Karma had taken when she brought them here. At that time, Kama was still as alive as a horse, and in just a few days, she was separated from this world.

Brant, is it because you killed Karma that we are not destined to see each other again? Vanessa naturally thought of the prince of the wine valley country, and wondered where this stubborn messenger of justice was at the moment.

"Hey! Stand still! Parting the chimney, a small man with a few big men blocked Vanessa's way, "Who are you?" Dare to pass by my territory without saying hello? ”

Vanessa maintained Sorenda's usual tough style, and sniffed around pretendingly, "I'm sorry, I didn't smell your mark." ”

The little man's eyes immediately became as if he had seen the enemy who killed his father, and without saying that, the thugs behind him were about to rush up.

"We are Kama's people." Vanessa shouted in a deep voice, trying not to attract the attention of the people next to her. The name worked, and both the little man and his men paused.

"No way, Karma is dead." The little man stroked the goatee from his lips and looked the four of them up and down with a sinister gaze.

"She still has a son."

As soon as these words came out, not only the little man was stunned, but even Matt and Simon were surprised, they looked at "Solanda" in a daze, and their hearts became more and more admiring her composure and aftermath at the critical moment.

"Her son is not as bold as her, and he has never made half a son." The little man pouted, and the fire dragon tattoo on his chest trembled ridiculously.

Vanessa turned around and gave Dundee a look, and the old man reached out and touched his arms for a long time, and finally with a flip of his wrist, a turquoise gem appeared in his palm. Oh my God, the princess rolled her eyes in her heart, could it be that Dundee made it with his own mud and sweat? Vanessa took the emerald and handed it to the thug who was stunned, "When I get out of town, I'll put three more of these gems on the other side of the passage." In order not to make the other party feel evil, he added, "My magic is telekinesis, and for safety reasons, I don't have the gem with me." ”

The little man immediately had a spring breeze smile on his face, "Safety first." With that, he moved out of the way, leading the four of them deeper into the underground passage.

Looking at their distant figures, the little man took the gem in his hand and laughed twice, "Go and report to Prince Terrence that the female warrior who assassinated the future queen has been found." Remember to tell him to bring more money. ”

"So, your magic only works on things that don't work?" Vanessa pulled Dundee to the end, she was very interested in the old man's magic.

The old man nodded, "The corpses of the three of you were made from clay pots in the house. ”

"Emerald?" Vanessa asked with a smile.

"Uh......"

"I hope to keep my promise to those guys in a while." The princess smiled evilly.

"No problem, my princess." Dundee laughed too.

"By the way, how long does your magic last?" Vanessa put away her smile and asked.

"As long as I live." The old man replied proudly.

Vanessa nodded, looking at the twists and turns of the underground passage ahead, and thinking about her next step.

Where do I go for help?

"Solanda, may I ask you a question?" Prince Matt, who was on Simon's back, finally caught the opportunity to speak.

"Please." Vanessa cautiously said more. Unlike Solanda's situation, she has no power now, only her identity has changed, and although she has Solanda's appearance in the eyes of outsiders, she can't even reach one-tenth of her combat power. She couldn't get rid of Matt and Simon, and she didn't know what Solandar called them in private, so she chose to talk less, preferring to turn around and talk to the old wizard Dundee.

"How did you know about this path?"

"I overheard it when I was choosing the Chamberlain."

"Listen to whom?" Simon's follow-up question followed.

"An opponent, a knight from a free city-state, I don't remember, what's the matter?" They're starting to doubt me. Vanessa looked Matt straight in the eye until she forced him back.

"We think, uh, you're different."

"Because you've never been so close to a magma pool," Vanessa said in a low voice, "because you've never sweated so much in your life, and embraced the flames for the sake of living, for life other than yourself?" Hmph, just talk, who has ever endured such a scorching! It's just me! Hopefully, this complaint will dispel and divert their doubts.

"It seems that the flames can really make people angry." Simon muttered, and the four of them continued to walk in the dark.

The passage was very long, zigzag, back and forth, and Vanessa imagined herself walking directly below the tall dragon in the square, going forward to the left of the dragon's head and then turning back, and now under the dragon's high cocked tail.

In the darkness, the sound of a constant stream slipped past his feet, carrying a slight cool breeze. It's an underground lizard, or a rat, Vanessa thought. They are like blood-sucking flatworms that smell blood, and they are extremely excited to see dinner right in front of them. If he had Reina's eyes, he would be able to see the races in these underground tunnels clearly, and his eyes would guide him more accurately in the darkness than in the light.
