Chapter 418: If you cut your throat, no one will come to save you

It was a small, boxy cell with an area of less than six square meters.

There was only a rudimentary wooden bed and a wooden toilet. Other than that, there are no more items.

There are no lights in the cell. Only the dim light of a wall lamp in the hallway could bring a little light to the gloomy cell.

The environment in this cell is obviously not ideal, but compared to other cells, such as those used to imprison powerful creatures such as demons, the conditions here are already very good.

Of course, whether the environment is good or not, it doesn't matter to the ice and snow warlock Ewen who lives in this cell now.

The sorceress sat on the bed, her hands folded on her knees, her back against the cold stone wall, her face tilted, staring blankly at the dark ceiling.

The once beautiful and touching sorceress seems to have lost all her vitality at this time. His eyes were blank, his face was haggard, and his long curls, which had been as smooth and white as snowflakes, had lost their luster and were as dull as burnt charcoal.

By now, she had figured out the cause and effect.

She already knew who had exposed the location of the half-plane core, and even directly brought the doppelganger of the Demon King into the half-plane core.

"It's me...... Brought in the Demon King of Destruction Miรจ...... It was I who let the Demon King invade the half-plane core...... It was I who caused this qiฤ“, ruined the good situation, and killed all my companions...... I...... It's an accomplice to destroy the Miรจ Demon King......"

She sat motionless, like a stone statue. In my heart, there is endless remorse.

Remorse and self-blame gnawed at her heart like a poisonous snake, making her so sad that she couldn't breathe.

At this moment, Li Qing came to the front of the cell.

The door to the cell was made of an iron rod the size of a child's arm. It was engraved with dense magic patterns, which were connected with the magic patterns carved on the four walls of the inner cell to form a forbidden magic circle. Not only can any caster below the legendary be banned from casting any spells, but it can also weaken the physical strength of the combat rank below the legendary to the point of ordinary people.

It can be said that once locked in such a cell, unless the entire half-plane completely loses energy, the prisoners inside will not want to break out of the prison.

Of course, now the prisoners in this cell are on the verge of a mental breakdown. Even if there were no defenses in the cell, she might not have the heart to escape.

Li Qing stood in front of the prison door, looked at the ice and snow sorceress sitting on the bed through the iron grate, and found that she did not react to her arrival in the slightest, and coughed twice at the moment to remind her of her arrival.

After coughing, Li Qing looked at the female prisoner a little nervously, ready to meet her scolding and cursing.

As a result, he was nervous for a long time, but the female prisoner still did not react at all, and still sat on the bed like a clay puppet, looking at the ceiling fixedly.

"......" Li Qing was speechless, so he had to cough loudly again, trying to wake up the female prisoner's senses.

Unfortunately, he coughed as if he was going to vomit out his lungs, but the female prisoner still didn't respond.

"......" Li Qing scratched his scalp, helplessly stopped coughing, and said directly: "That...... I am the knight of Susu, and my name is Li Qing. Your name is Ewen, right? โ€

There was no answer.

Li Qing continued: "Then what, are you okay? โ€

Still no answer.

"Hmm, the environment here is not very good, and you are injured again, why don't I talk to Su Su and give you a better environment to recuperate? I'm serious, no kidding, preferential treatment of prisoners is a consistent fine tradition of our army......"

The sorceress didn't move, her eyes didn't even roll. I don't know if I was deliberately silent, or I was immersed in my own world, and I didn't hear Li Qing's words at all.

"Would you like to say something?" Li Qing was a little helpless.

According to his original intention, he did not want to do such work as persuasion. He is a rough knight who fights and kills, although he is also a scholar, but he has never been known for his eloquence before, and before he met Su Su, he would be red in the face when he said a word to a girl.

Although this problem is cured now, I can talk to girls eloquently, but the premise is that it is a familiar woman.

In the face of a hostile element like a sorceress, his usual method is to cut it with a knife, no matter if you are a stunning beauty or a stunning city, as long as you dare to be an enemy of my Su Su, I will dare to cut you in two.

Therefore, a violent person like Li Qing, who is accustomed to speaking with a sword, is really not suitable for him to persuade him to surrender.

However, he had promised Su Su before, and with his discipline, it was impossible to go back on his word like Su Su. Therefore, no matter how much he felt that he was not able to do it, he could only continue with his head.

"So what, are you hungry? Why don't I cook you a bowl of instant noodles? Fry another egg? One is not enough, two are fine. Or add a ham sausage? If you are not used to eating instant noodles, scrambled egg rice is also fine. Hey, I remember that there seems to be bread in the kitchen in the tower, do you prefer bread? I said, it's not good for you to be so silent, it's easy to suffocate your body......"

Li Qing chattered in a mess for a while, but unfortunately all of them were useless. It was as if the sorceress's soul had come out of her shell, leaving only an empty shell in her cell.

"This woman can't communicate at all! I shouldn't have been fooled by Su Su into doing this troublesome thing! Li Qing complained to himself in annoyance, took a deep breath, and muttered, "No way." The most important thing now is to make her communicative first, and she can only use some special means to wake her up. โ€

With that, he took out the key, opened the cell door directly, strode in, and came to the sorceress.

"Hey!" He reached out to cover the sorceress's gaze and shook it in front of her eyes, "I'm in!" โ€

The sorceress remained unresponsive.

She seemed to be staring at the ceiling, but her eyes were blank, and her pupils were unfocused. Li Qing didn't say that his hand was dangling in front of her eyes, even if he took a flashlight and shone it at her eyes, she might not react.

"This looks...... Surely he has already had a nervous breakdown and completely closed himself off? โ€

Li Qing frowned, and the palm placed in front of the sorceress's eyes poked out, directly touching the bridge of her nose, and two fingers gently pinched her delicate nose.

"Pinch your nose so that you can't breathe, see if you're awake." Li Qing muttered to himself.

Well, this kind of behavior seems very childish. But it has to be said that it is indeed very effective. In the case that Li Qing didn't want to slap the sorceress in the face and further deepen the hatred between the two sides, this way of awakening was already the most suitable.

So it didn't take long for the sorceress's blank eyes to roll, and her closed mouth opened violently, and she breathed heavily. At the same time, he slapped Li Qing's hand and slapped his big hand pinching his nose.

"Is that you? You executioner! Butcher! A demon in human skin! โ€

The sorceress's chest rose and fell violently, a flush appeared on her pale face, and her originally godless eyes were blooming with extreme hatred and anger at this moment, glaring at Li Qing fiercely like a female leopard, and screaming angrily: "Go to hell!" โ€

In the midst of the shouting, she raised her right hand and pointed her index finger at Li Qing.

Well, obviously, nothing happened.

โ€œ๏ผŸโ€ The sorceress was stunned for a moment, gritted her teeth unwillingly, and pointed at Li Qing again.

No response? Again!

The sorceress, who gritted her teeth and was full of hatred, was already carried away by the anger, and couldn't remember her situation clearly, so she nodded her finger at Li Qing regardless of it, and kept shouting in her mouth: "Extremely cold ray!" Ice Death Finger! Wrath of the Snow Queen......"

Li Qing looked at the sorceress with pity, watching her shout the name of the move like a fool and point fingers at herself. After a while, he let out a long sigh and said, "It's useless. Nothing you can point to me can hurt a single hair, let alone you? Don't point it, it won't change anymore, you can't cast any spells here. โ€

The sorceress froze, halting her futile attempts to cast spells. Just when Li Qing thought that she had calmed down and could have a good exchange, the sorceress suddenly jumped up and pounced like a leopard.

"Can't cast spells? I still have hands, and I still have feet, and I have teeth! Even if you bite it, I will make you pay the price! โ€

Ewen is not a pure spellcaster without the power of a chicken.

As a princess of a country, she has been trained as a knight and has superb riding and fighting abilities.

As a descendant of the Ice Queen, she has awakened the divine bloodline, and her physique and strength are also quite strong. Even a regular knight of about level ten may not be able to beat her in one-on-one combat.

If she loses her ability to cast spells elsewhere, she can indeed fight with her fists and feet. However, this cell is suppressed even by the physical fitness of the combat position. In this cell, Yiwen's physical strength is only that of an ordinary woman. If his physical fitness is not enough, no matter how superb his fighting skills are, he cannot be Li Qing's opponent.

Because Li Qing has immunity, he is completely unsuppressed by the power of the Mage Tower.

So Yiwen's rebellion was naturally suppressed by Li Qing. He reached out with his left hand, grabbed both of Yiwen's wrists in his hand, and grabbed them. Then he stretched out his right hand and pressed it against Yiwen's forehead, stopping her from trying to bite. Then he put his knees together and clamped the foot that Yiwen kicked at him tightly, no matter how hard Yiwen tried, he couldn't retract that foot.

"Ahh Yiwen roared angrily, desperately stretching her head forward, competing with Li Qing's big hand against her forehead. But where is Li Qing's strength that she can compete with? Even with all his might, Li Qing's hand still didn't move.

"It's useless." Li Qing felt that he was quite a villain at this time, so he said in a ghostly manner: "If you cut your throat, no one will come to save you." โ€

After saying this, he looked even more suspiciously from side to side, as if he was really afraid that a guy with a throat would jump out......

Then he was embarrassed. Obviously, he reflected how unreliable his words and deeds were.

He smiled awkwardly at the moment, and said to the sorceress who was struggling with all her might: "Look, you can't do anything about me now, it's just a waste of effort to make trouble like this." It's better to calm down first, dissipate your anger, and let's have a good exchange, what do you think? โ€

"Demons! I will not give in to you! โ€

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ I must state for the record that I am the Black Knight, but I am definitely not a demon. I've never tried to hurt anyone on my own initiative......"

"Stop quibbling! You killed four legendary masters, you killed nine of my companions, you killed five of your fellow earthlings, you killed three thousand elves! You have so many heroes on your hands, you are not a demon who is a demon? โ€

"Then did I take the initiative to trouble you? Whether it's the four legends before, or your people this time, they all took the initiative to trouble me, right? Could it be that when you come to trouble me, I can't resist, so I can only obediently stick my head out and let you cut it off? Would it be good to be reasonable......"

"As a minion of the Demon King of Destruction, as a disciple of darkness, you are an evil monster! In order to destroy the Demon King, in order to prevent her from coming back, in order to save more lives, in order not to let her destroy more of the world, we did not hesitate to come to the earth...... We stand for justice and hope, and of course you can stop us and slaughter us, but what you do...... It's evil, it's the work of the devil! โ€

"Tsk, that's unreasonable. You represent justice and hope, and I am against you, so you are a natural villain? But the problem is, my Su Su didn't wreak havoc on the earth! She was a little naughty and did get a little bit of a twist at times, but she's gotten a lot better under my strict discipline......"

"That's because she hasn't regained her strength yet!" The sorceress stopped struggling, and there was a hint of mockery in her eyes full of hatred. She stared at Li Qing and said slowly, "When she recovers her strength, do you think she will let go of the earth?" โ€

"Of course she won't do anything to Earth!" Li Qingshu said categorically: "This world is too small to accommodate her ambitions. The resources of this world mean nothing to her. Even if the productivity of this world is extremely developed, limited to the different rules of the world, the powerful thermal weapons cannot be effective in the heterogeneous plane. Unless it is turned into an enchanted weapon. But even Susu would not be able to enchant weapons on an industrial production scale. So, even firearms mean nothing to Susu. โ€

"What about cold weapons? Cold weapons can be used in any plane, right? The sorceress asked, "With the level of industrial production on the earth, it is possible to arm tens of millions of heavily armed cold weapons troops with a light weight. The Demon King wants to make a comeback and build a huge army of demon kings, even if it is all cold weapon legions, the demand for weapons and armor is endless! The industrial productivity of the earth, she will let go? โ€

"Hehe, your idea is so interesting." Li Qing smiled: "Su Su and I are rich now, and we will get richer and richer in the future." And on Earth, as long as there is money, missiles can be bought. So, if we want cold weapons, can't we just buy them with money? You can even buy equipment directly and build an arsenal in the half-plane. Is it necessary to occupy the earth specifically for this? โ€

The sorceress was stunned, obviously Li Qing's words were too reasonable, leaving her speechless.

But she was not persuaded by Li Qing, and quickly pointed to the core of the problem: "I admit that what you said makes sense, and the Demon King may not do anything to the earth." But can you guarantee that after she recovers her strength, she won't attack other planes? Can you guarantee that she will not try to occupy my homeland and enslave our people? โ€

This time, it was Li Qing's turn to be speechless.

He knew very well that if Su Su regained her strength, then she would inevitably get back the qiฤ“ she had lost and kill all her opponents. Yiwen's ancestral god, the Ice Queen, is a main force in the alliance of gods hostile to Susu, and the kingdoms protected by the Ice Queen, such as the kingdom where Yiwen is located, are obviously also Susu's enemies.

With Su Su's careful eyes, once she regains a qiฤ“, how can she not retaliate back? How is it possible not to enslave the people of that kingdom?

Li Qing couldn't deny this with a clear conscience.

But after thinking about it, he still came up with a way to respond: "Well, what you said makes sense. But this problem is not impossible to solve. If...... If you are willing to follow Su Su and make great contributions for her, then the future will ...... When Susu conquers the plane where your home is located, you can intercede with her and beg her to spare your kingdom. What do you think of my idea? โ€
