Volume 2: The Holy War of Blood Chapter 20: The Island of Fire and Ice (9) In the Darkness

"It doesn't smell good, but it's a good place to hide. In the dark, damp sewers, Raven spoke to the crowd as he leaned against the wall.

The city of Akureyri doesn't have a large population, so the city's sewers don't make everyone feel too dirty and disgusting. Although the smell was a little unpleasant, everything was still within the range they could bear, not to mention the current situation, it was very lucky to be able to find a hiding place.

"Do you want to find a place to rest first?" asked Nicholas, who was supporting Shore with Ye Xiang, to Ye Xiang.

"Okay, let's find a place to rest first. Ye Xiang licked his chapped lips and carefully observed his surroundings before answering. "There's no threat here, let's rest here for a while. ”

Nicholas and Ye wanted to place Shore on a smooth stone platform, and then they all sat down on the ground with their butts on their backs. After being chased by the swarm of flies for so long, and now that they finally have a chance to rest, everyone is so tired that they don't even care about it in the sewers full of sewage.

"The Gluttonous Eater is indeed a well-deserved existence. Ye Xiang said while panting. "Whether it's the tenacious vitality or the way he responds to attacks, he is one of the best opponents. ”

Nicholas clenched his fists violently: "If I had noticed the flies that had splintered from its body at that time, maybe we wouldn't have to hide in this underground sewer, it's my fault!"

"It's not your fault, Nicholas. Ye Xiang patted him on the shoulder with relief. "He's certainly not just prepared for this one, a cunning guy like him is sure to be prepared for a lot of ways to get out. What's more, we didn't really know what he was capable of at the time, so how can we blame you. ”

"The vice-captain is right. Raven sat on a broken pipe, his right thumb still staining with dried blood. "How can we blame you, if you have to blame yourself, then don't we all make mistakes to a greater or lesser extent?"

"You see, we all think so. Ye Xiang smiled slightly, and he suddenly stood up and carefully observed the structure of the city's sewers.

"It's a clever design, and these sewers are not just designed to drain water, it's clear that these sewers have been remodeled. Ye Xiang reached out and touched the walls, there were clear traces of the second artificial on each wall here, which really made him interested.

"It was a modification for temporary combat use. Nicholas stared at the wall and said, "My former captain, Berry, whose hometown is in Iceland, was a member of the Special Operations Force SR before joining the BPRD. The unit is a stealthy organization that has now been incorporated into the BPRD, and Captain Berry has told me that they have modified a lot of the sewers in order to be able to stealthily act in the city. ”

"I've heard of this unit, it's also a team of witchers. Information appeared in Ye Xiang's mind, "I didn't expect them to put so much effort into transforming the sewer passage into a place where they can act covertly." ”

"I'm afraid there are countless secret doors and secret passages here. Nicholas looked around and said, "For the sake of movement, this is probably more accessible than the city on earth, and it looks like we have found a treasure." ”

"You really respect Captain Berry. Raven yelled at him, "And it looks like Captain Berry has a close relationship with you, otherwise you wouldn't know so much." ”

"Ah, after all, he's the one I consider my brother. Nicholas smiled, as if he could faintly see Captain Berry's face before his eyes, and then twisted his neck vigorously and let out that hearty laugh.

"I didn't expect to meet again so soon, how do you feel now? A lazy male voice came from the passage ahead, causing everyone who had just relaxed to enter a state of alert again.

"Wait a minute. Ye Xiang stretched out his hand to stop Nicholas and Raven, who were already preparing to attack. "I've heard this voice before, and in such a lazy tone that it seems like I already know who the owner is. ”

"Sure enough, it's you, do you even remember my voice so clearly?" the male voice got closer and closer, but he still couldn't see his face clearly in the dim space.

"Garrot, how did you find this guy?" When the man was already about to walk in front of them, Ye Xiang asked mercilessly.

"Haven't I been in this city for a day or two, and it's not easy to find this place?" Through the faint light, everyone could already see the faces of the comers, although Nicholas and Raven had not seen Garlot's true appearance with their own eyes, they had heard this name many times from Ye Xiang and Shoal.

"You've been watching over us. Ye wanted to expose the fact that he wanted to cover up. "You've been watching us from the dark from the moment we fought with Beelzebub, otherwise how would you know so well where I am!"

"I don't want to deny it. Garrot didn't think there was anything wrong with it. "I've been watching your battles, but that's just because I'm interested, and that's not an excuse for you to criticize me. ”

Ye Xiang snorted coldly: "An ordinary person, seeing this situation, did not escape but stepped forward. When so many people in the city are parasitized, they can get out unharmed, what do you think is the probability of this being true?"

"It's okay if you don't treat me as an ordinary person. Garrot yawned, "After all, you've never seen me as an ordinary person, and as for why I didn't die at the hands of those bugs, it may be because I was lucky." ”

"I won't talk to you about anything else. Ye Xiang looked at him again, and he was sure that the man in front of him really didn't have any hostility. "Since you're here to find us, there must be something you want to do, I've never liked to make things too complicated, so if you have anything to say, say it now. ”

"You have to get out of here. "The ships of the BPRD will soon arrive at the main port of Akureyri, and you must arrive on time with what I have given you, and I am here to take you out." ”

"I see, then I should start by saying thank you. Ye Xiang raised his eyebrows and said. After Shore fell into a coma, the things that Garrot handed them were always carried by Ye Xiang, and this important thing was the most reassuring for her to keep by herself. After listening to what Garrot had just said, he involuntarily reached to his waist to confirm the safety of the item.

"My head hurts when I hear you say thank you. Garrot still seemed very relaxed, as if the situation was not as serious as everyone thought. "It's a smart choice of perfume for you to enter the city, which has access to everything. ”

"You yourself said that time is running out, it's rare to have someone like you to help us, so shouldn't you lead the way now?" Ye Xiang politely urged.

"It's okay, you guys really can't bear it, just let me come. Garrot grumbled slightly, then turned to lead the way. Ye Xiang gestured to Nicholas and Raven with his eyes, and they both understood what the vice captain wanted to express: now put away his suspicions and follow the current man.

The two of them supported Xiao Er with one hand and followed closely behind the man, while Ye Xiang took the initiative to take the position of the queen of the palace, he must ensure the safety of the action team, and the enemy is likely to suddenly appear behind him.

As for the man who led the team, Ye Xiang didn't worry too much in his heart, the person who could survive in that kind of situation with almost no possibility of survival must have an ability beyond the imagination of others, maybe the man named Garrot had an unknown amount of strength stronger than himself.

The crowd formed a column and followed the man silently, sometimes a faint light falling through the gap above, but there was more of a silent darkness on the road, and their figures faded away in this darkness.

At this time, in the nearby town of Corondor in Akureyri, Jon is leading his valiant sailors in a guerrilla war.

For the first time, the demons encountered what could be described as a puzzling battle: the enemy could be hidden in any house, and the town's intricate roads made it easy for them to get around.

They didn't know anything about the town's structure, but the enemy had all the maps of the town, and even the town's underground structure, and they were as dizzy as if they had entered a misty forest. The town is like a quagmire that makes it impossible for them to get out of it at all.

Jon was hidden in a bedroom on the second floor of a house, and he was glad that his act had worked. Under this guerrilla tactic, the enemy will only continue to consume themselves, and they can even reduce their casualties to a perceived minimum.

But he was more concerned about the situation of Shore and them, and not long after, the sound of lightning and thunder from the city of Akureyri had been tugging at his heart.

He knew very well that this was a phenomenon caused by Shore's divine thunder, and he also felt a strong electromagnetic pulse, and he was surprised by the power of this move, but there was infinite worry in his heart: he had been forced to awaken, and the enemy they faced was probably very powerful.

"May the souls of the fallen warriors be with you, and may their courage always be with you, and you must live. He prayed silently. But all Jon can do now is pray, as he can only fight the enemy here.

They're going to win, I trust your judgment, Seth. He thought in his heart that human will can change fate, and human courage can break through the shackles of limits, and you have always believed this, and I believe so today.
