Chapter 397: The Meaning of Life

The group returned to the hall of the monastery, and Thor led the group into the tunnels with torches.

Thor had already come down once earlier, and though he hadn't found any missing enemies, he knew that the crowd might be disappointed, because he had also found nothing of value or trophy.

Looking at the underground layout here, it seems to be a private dungeon of a monastery, and there is an open area behind the screen of the goddess.

The smell of putrid stench wafted through the air, and the entire underground space was roughly rectangular, with a main passage in the middle, leading to an open rest area at the end. On both sides of the main aisle, they were separated by iron bars that had been erected into cells.

I don't know where the polluters were before, but their presence was a strange thing. Like how are they polluted, and why are they all hiding underground? Or ...... Actually, who are they locked up here?

The only thing Thor could think of was that Rook, who was a native before, had mentioned that the monastery had been run by a high bishop many years ago. However, those monsters Risor had paid special attention to them just now, and he didn't see anyone who looked like a bishop from the way he was dressed.

Maybe the bishop has run away, or maybe the imprisoned polluters are the tail of the bishop's hands?

As for the cells on both sides, it is a bit strange, and it seems that only one of them is a heavy torture cell. There are gallows, guillotines, finger clamps, iron virgins, and all kinds of cruel torture instruments. Judging by the blackened blood on the ground, someone may have been beheaded here.

The other cells were light torture instruments, which might not be appropriate to be called torture tools, just small shackles, small leather whips, feathers, candles and other gadgets.

The two adventurers Shiitake mushrooms obviously had a hunch, but they still couldn't help but ask curiously, and Thor roughly said something about the purpose of use, and the two shiitake mushrooms blushed when they heard it. Obviously, these rooms were used to torture women, or to satisfy some special taste.

Of course, Thor didn't use it either, he just guessed. By the way, I imagined the scene of my own tender shiitake mushrooms screaming on the torture equipment, and then hurriedly shook my head to dispel the bad fantasies.

"What is this?" Randy asked, pointing to a strange-looking device in the cell.

"Hey, I'm telling you Miss Randy, this thing is amazing! It's called a triangular horse, trust me, you're going to ascend to heaven if you sit on it." Rook slapped the device with pride on his face, as if he had built it himself.

Randy's face was a little gloomy, and it was clear that she had heard something, not that she didn't know anything. If it weren't for Thor raising his hand and rubbing her head in time, maybe she would have drawn her sword and cut off Ruke's dog's head.

After roughly walking through the entire dungeon, everyone still started a more detailed search.

Although Thor is not optimistic, after all, the tables, chairs, low stools, cups, candlesticks here are almost visible, and it does not look like there is any secret, but sometimes I have to admit that a thief is a thief, and Funa Shiitake actually turned out a golden chalice in a secret compartment.

This scene was familiar, and it reminded Saul of Shogues.

Once, the two ran to a mausoleum to rob the tomb, and it ended up being a consolation prize for the Holy Grail.

Thor took the chalice handed by Funa in his hand, the whole chalice was about the length of a palm, the surface was engraved with delicate lines, and there was a purple dragon's eye gem embedded in the foot of the base, which was undoubtedly valuable from the point of view of exquisiteness.

This little thing obviously didn't attract Thor yet, and the pool of gold coins of the dragon mushrooms was piled up like garbage.

Thor just wanted to see if there were two words engraved on the mouth of the cup, 'We never appeared, we never left', but unfortunately, this was clearly not the Holy Grail of Verne, but at most a precious artifact.

Because of this little chalice, Saul thought of both Shuggus and Anne Baez. It's sometimes so strange that you're not sure when you're going to remember something, even if it's not obvious.

No matter how great you are, no one's life can be filled with legends, and most of your life will eventually be ordinary and trivial. Today, after several thorns, Saul finally understands that they (she) are the meaning of his life.

"Divide yourselves. Thor tossed the chalice back to Funa Shiitake.

"How can we do that, we are all under your leadership......" Luke was the first to say, and the five of them all meant the same thing.

"You're welcome, to be honest, I don't like this little thing. Thor waved his hand in amusement and turned back to the ground.

Thor's concession earned him a higher level of respect, and when he was gone, the five of them had a heated discussion and humbleness.

The value of the longan gemstone is definitely higher than the body of the cup, and the five people must know it. As a result of the final discussion, Funa Shiitake used a dagger to pry out the dragon's eye gem, and then left the golden cup to the three Rook brothers.

Naturally, Thor had no opinion on the results of their own distribution, and they were happy with themselves. Seeing the three Luke brothers holding a holy grail with a smirk on their faces, they were obviously very satisfied, as if they had received the whole world.

Even Rook said that the adventure was like this, and they decided to be adventurers in the future. This bold statement made Thor cry and laugh, and he couldn't imagine a small probability event, which actually made the three strong men awaken new dreams.

You think it's fun to take risks, and you're probably going to end up crying.

However, Thor didn't persuade him, after all, the world is unpredictable, and it's hard to say that it is possible for Luke to mix well or grow up.

Anyway, it's still the same sentence, the road is chosen by yourself, life and death are conceited, and you know yourself.

Then the group left the monastery, and even Funa re-locked the iron gate before leaving, leaving behind all the rotten secrets. Originally, it would have been nice to have a room in the monastery to spend the night, but everyone said they didn't like the smell of the place.

After finding a dry clearing in the wilderness, which was still fairly open, the people roughly eradicated the vegetation on the ground, and then set up three tents. Thor himself has a top, two sisters have a top, and three brothers have a top.

Since it was a night in the wilderness, the vigil was naturally the top priority, and everyone asked Thor to make arrangements.

It doesn't seem like much to arrange, in the past, the wilderness was dangerous because of the mobility of monsters, but now it's clear that ghosts are the main threat. So the swordsman Shiitake Randy and Ruknaf kept watch for the first half of the night, and the thieves Funa and Ballim kept watch for the second half of the night.

As for Thor himself, he is in charge of sleeping.

Anyway, he had already roasted meat with honey, and had succeeded in coaxing Neferna, who didn't have to sleep, to keep an eye on him.

It seemed to be a calm night, silent and windless in the dark wilderness.

Thor didn't fall asleep right away, but chatted with Neferna, face to face. Because Thor folded his coat and tucked it under his head to make a pillow, so that he could take advantage of the goddess shiitake mushrooms hiding in the buttons of his coat, oh, mentally.

Before the conversation between the two was over, the tent was suddenly lifted silently.

A dark figure slipped in, and then stood quietly aside, not knowing what to wait for or what to do.

"What is she doing here?" said Neferna, her voice lowered, staring suspiciously at the thief Shiitake mushroom who had slipped into the tent.

"Actually, I already saw it when I was in Mine Gold Town. Thor pretended to be asleep and whispered a mysterious word.

"You see...... What's coming?" said Neferna.

"Why do you think these two shiitake adventurers followed me that day? Tell you, I saw through the truth at that time. Going on the road together is just an excuse, their real purpose is actually to rob me, and I may be in danger tonight. Thor sighed.

There was a moment of silence in the air.

"Bah...... Phew, Bah, Bah!" Neferna suddenly snorted.

"You're a very boring person, don't live like a watering can all day long, okay? You can't see my charm just because you haven't sprouted yet, but that doesn't mean others can't see it. Thor expressed disdain for Neferna's reaction.

"I've lived from the light to the dark, and you've been the most shameless person I've ever seen in so many years. Neferna fought back.

"What do you want to do with your face? Can you change a few mushrooms? Believe it or not, Funa Shiitake is about to take off her clothes and take the initiative to get into my blanket, and I can't stop it. Old Dog Thor spoke in a confident tone.

"I'll kill you, you want to be beautiful, you can dream alone. Neferna felt that her bottom line seemed to be being torn apart by some evil and strange unknown force, and it might or may not explode soon.

Just as the two of them were laughing quietly, the quiet figure suddenly moved.

Funa poked her little head and looked cautiously in the direction of Thor's bunk, as if to see if Thor was asleep.

Seeing that Thor didn't seem to move, she began to gently undress herself.

"This ...... It can't be true, right?" Thor muttered inexplicably.

Seeing Funa's movements clearly, not only Neferna was shocked, but even the story king Thor himself was a little unsure.

When Funa stripped herself naked and hugged her arms to reveal a slightly thin and energetic body, Thor couldn't hold it anymore.

"What are you going to do?" Thor snapped over at the same time, reminding Funa that she hadn't slept.

"I'm going to pay for this escort, I told you at the gate of Mine Goldtown. Funa replied softly.

"It was the result of my discussions with my sister and she was very supportive. Without waiting for Thor to respond, Funa added.

Thor suddenly remembered that there was something going on, and that Funa had said that the payment would be paid later. At that time, Thor didn't pay attention at all, and was about to wave his hand to refuse, but was interrupted by the three Luke brothers poking out a dog's head and interjecting a sentence.

Thor was a little speechless, why did your sister support you? What do you think of me? Am I such a casual person?

"Then come in and say, it's weird to stand outside. Thor was silent for a moment, and suddenly lifted the blanket and invited him.

"Do you really dare to ask for it?" Neferna exclaimed in shock, "What's so weird and cold?"

Faintly, Thor seemed to hear the sound of the goddess Neferna's little face cracking.
