"Can't find it? don't see it, can't find it? You don't see it, you can't find a human woman imprisoned here?" a furious, high-pitched roar echoed through the passageway, accompanied by a loud boom.

Outside the prison at the end of the tunnel, the leader of the dwarves, Jinshi, roared and slammed punch after punch against the rock wall, into the ground, and into the fence of the prison. With a loud boom, the hard rock walls and ground continued to sink into cracked craters, and the metal fences that seemed to be the thickness of arms were twisted like noodles and twisted flowers.

There were a few dwarves standing in the middle of the corridor, all of them with their heads downcast, their faces like ashes, some scratching their ears and cheeks, looking around, some just staring at the ground, and two or three whispering in each other's ears, although the leaders of the golden stone made them respect and fear, the stupidity and rough lines of the dwarves themselves still made them lack the mood of trembling.

How the human woman who was originally imprisoned here escaped, they really don't have a clue. Several of them were guarding the entrance of the corridor, and there was indeed only one entrance and exit here. No one is better at renovating this kind of structure inside and under the mountain than the dwarves, and this abandoned prison of the empire is now their lair, and they know the place as well as their own body limbs.

The corpses of the five dwarves fell to the ground in different positions, all of them slightly deformed, and the dwarven muscles, which had been stiff and stiff after they had died, became like mud lacking in stickiness, and they were about to fall under the weight of their own weight. The last remaining Earth Priest of the clan was half-kneeling on the ground, scrutinizing the corpses of the five dwarves.

"Being invaded by the water elemental magic in the body, the body tissues were completely destroyed. Without the help of the great Lord of the Earth, no matter how brave the children are, they will not be able to resist this kind of damage from the inside. They died without even a little resistance. The Earth Priest struggled to his feet, he was fatter than the average dwarf, and he really looked like a ball of meat, and because of his age, the loose fat was slumped on his shoulders, and he couldn't see the position of his neck at all. However, as the oldest and most distinguished old man in the clan, he was far more knowledgeable than the other dwarves.

"Is it really the cleric of the water elemental god? How did that Western woman do it? Aren't these goddamn arcane prisons able to completely suppress the caster? Damn the arcane!" the goldstone leader looked at the distorted metal fence as if he were the enemy of his father, and slammed it with another punch. The fence clattered as if it had been pried open, and the end of the rock with the bottom rose high, and an unspeakable wave flashed and disappeared, and the prison was no longer usable.

"The utility of this arcane prison is limited. The great elemental gods are the cornerstone of this world, and such imprisonment is useless for the clergy who can truly comprehend the will of the elemental gods. And if it's a high-ranking cleric of the Elemental God, there's no problem sneaking around the kids outside. ”

The leader of the golden stone unscrewed a section of the fence, put it in his mouth and bit it with a creaking sound, and his black eyes were full of bloodshots: "Those Westerners actually dare to deliberately send high-ranking priests to us to be imprisoned, are they doing it on purpose?"

The old priest shook his head, the fat on his face flickering, "Maybe they don't know the limits of this prison. After all, high-ranking clergy are rare, and most of those Westerners are actually unbelievers. Their understanding of the gods is also superficial, and to be honest, I am not optimistic about their plans. ”

"What about the paladins and Westerners who guard the hand? Do you feel any traces of them?" the goldstone leader shifted his anger for a moment.

"Nope. They should be gone in this valley. I couldn't feel their footsteps. The priest shook his head and struck the ground with the cane of his right hand. It was a thick, large, stone-like cane, with burns on its left hand and a large scorched patch of hair and beard, the marks of a series of bursting fireballs. And the other earth priest was really unlucky because he was careless, and he happened to be blown up by five superimposed fireballs, and he couldn't even find a larger piece of corpse.

"But I have prayed to the spirits of the earth to remember their steps, and if they reappear, the earth will tell me. ”

"Got out of here so soon...... It is impossible to do without the help of people within the Northern Legion, and the human race is really all damn miscellaneous pieces!" The leader of the golden stone spat fiercely, hitting the ground with a crisp sound, and the lump of gold and iron that was chewed in his mouth just now was actually only a small lump of impurities, and the others were swallowed.

"Chief, the Church of Vengeance and the Northern Legion are here. A dwarf came to report. "Looks like there's some news from the caravan. ”

"Ahhh......h "They're so well here! It doesn't matter what the news is, as long as it's them, it's very good. ”

Soon, the group came under the leadership of a dwarf, and before they could get there, Jin Shi hurried over to meet them, spread his hands wide, and said in a loud voice: "Ah, friends, you are so good to come, you are so good to come, do you know how much I miss you now?"

At the head was a low-ranking officer of the Northern Legion, and he couldn't help but be stunned as he watched this dwarven leader, who looked like a giant stout rat that had grown up eating human flesh, greet them with such a warm posture and voice. The reputation of the dwarven leader and what he had just done in the commander's office was already known to everyone in a small circle, but it was clearly not related to the current enthusiasm.

Before he could figure out what was going on, he saw the dwarf keep his position and rush ten times more enthusiastically, holding him by the waist and slamming into the rock wall behind him without stopping.

Another loud bang echoed in the corridor, like a tomato being violently squeezed, and at the same time, the leader of the golden stone knocked out a pit in the rock wall, and squeezed the body of the officer in his arms to shreds, and the broken internal organs, flesh and bones, all kinds of juice mixed together and splashed all over the sky.

The officer was still stunned and kicked the dwarf in front of him, the height of the leader of the golden stone was only between his chest and abdomen, this squeezing only squeezed his abdominal cavity and lower limbs to shreds, but the top of the chest was fine, at most, the stomach content under the pressure and the broken internal organs poured up together, spurting out of the mouth and nose, but the person did not die for a while. Then a great reflection of fear and pain came back to the officer, and the officer's mouth opened wide to scream. But the Chief's big hand grabbed him by the neck, strangling the scream and his last breath, and the stout dwarf with his head covered in broken flesh struck him in the face, ending all his pain.

"Let go of those who killed us! Let go of those who killed us!" "The goldstone leader screeched, punching and smashing. In fact, the officer was completely dead as early as the first punch, and the second punch directly turned the officer's head into shards, and the next few punches simply hit the rock wall behind. But even so, the leader of the golden stone was still angry, and continued to roar and continue to smash the rock wall behind him with one punch, smashing on the manipulation of the officer's upper body, and after dozens of punches, all that was left was a puddle of real flesh and mud.

"And you. Bring that woman over and kill five of our brothers. There was nothing left to catch or fight, so the leader of the golden stone turned his head and looked at the Westerners who were stunned not far away. This is the young man who brought Mu Qinyi to detain before, and at this time he was so frightened that his face was pale, and he stood there like chaff and couldn't move, and his crotch was wet.

With a body of flesh and blood, the leader rushed over. The officer just let his anger out a little, so he decided to take his time with this Westerner. It was only as soon as his hand was stretched out, and before he could grasp the young man's shoulder with a few inches left, another more powerful hand grabbed him first.

"Jin Shiling, you better calm down first. A voice rang out. This is a big man who follows this Westerner, wearing a strange and hideous wooden mask, but the eyes behind the mask are as calm and deep as the voice.

"It's you, get out of here!" the leader of the golden stone obviously knew this mask, knew this person. But he was still not polite, and his other hand slammed into the man.

This man let go of the hand of the leader of the golden stone first, changed the direction, and then gently caught the other one that struck. It turned out that he only had one hand, but this hand was extremely magical on the body of the masked man, and the fist of the leader of the golden stone that was heavier than the battering ram could not touch anything, so he was gently and skillfully pinched his wrist, and then the whole person of the leader of the golden stone was thrown out like a ball of flesh and blood.

There was a loud bang, and the fence of another prison was completely deformed by the leader of the golden stone, and the leader of the golden stone who rolled down didn't seem to be injured at all, and rushed towards the person again with a sharp and angry scream, and clenched his fists in mid-air with both hands, and grabbed it, which was actually a little different from the previous random fights.

The masked man seemed to sigh, then crouched down with his legs slightly, closed his fists in his abdomen, and quietly watched as the roaring Jinshi leader rushed straight towards him like a mad man-eating beast, until the two were only within two meters of each other, and then he punched out.

This punch was not castrated quickly, and there was no sound, compared to the wind brought out by the fist that the leader of the golden stone rushed to swing, it could be said to be silent, but in this way, the ordinary punch passed through the fist of the leader of the golden stone and grabbed it, and just hit him in the chest.

Kicking and kicking, the masked one-armed man took four or five steps back, and with each step he retreated, there was a cracked footprint on the ground, and when he stood firm, he acted as if nothing had happened. The Golden Stone Commander had completely stopped in place, half-kneeling on the ground, gasping for breath, and suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with metallic color.

The dwarves in the back had been standing there watching the show, but only then they all shouted, drew their weapons and were about to rush forward.

"Stop!" the earth priest stopped the dwarven warriors with a thud of the scepter in his hand. Then he bowed slightly to the masked one-armed man: "Your Excellency the High Priest." ”

"Your Excellency. The masked man also bowed slightly to the earth priest.

"Why? Why can't I beat you? and fail so quickly this time?" the leader of the golden stone slowly raised his head and looked at the masked man, his voice hoarse and leaky. "You still use the 'dig out your heart like a tiger', why do you have such a technique, why? I've thought hard about it, why is the gap with you even bigger? Why?"

"Why do you need to learn my technique? The masked man stood with his hands in his hands and said lightly. "My technique may seem simple, but it is actually the essence of my decades of hard work, and behind it is the inheritance of thousands of years of civilization to which I belong. If you want to forcibly imitate it, you just have a physical appearance, but you have lost even the fighting instinct that you have tempered on the battlefield for many years, and you can't even give full play to half of your strength. Your earth elemental divine power is also too great for me to be inadequate, and of course it can't stop my punch. ”

"What do you mean, are you saying that I didn't learn well?" said the goldstone leader slowly stood up. "The earth has given me stronger, stronger, heavier strength, and if I can learn your skills again, I can knead all the mages on the West Coast into meatloaf with just one person. ”

The masked man said lightly, "Your own is the best." When you really understand this, maybe I won't be able to beat you so easily. ”

"Good...... , I remembered. The leader of the golden stone wiped his mouth, and the mouthful of blood he spit out shone like mercury, which was clearly distinguishable from the blood of the officer on his body. "If it's just a message, you don't need to come in person, right?"

"There is news from the caravan that there is a herd of beasts on the way, and it will be delayed for a few days. Plans are on hold. ”

"Then it's time to put it off, do you need to come here on purpose?"

"I heard that the lady who was sent to the detention was in some condition, so I made a special trip to take a look. ”

"That's right, she killed five of me and fled. Her level of magic exceeds the limits of this arcane prison, and I think you should pay me five lives. ”

"Really? It seems that I made a mistake in my judgment, but it is not mine. The masked man's eyes swept over the corpses of the five dwarves on the ground in the distance, and then landed on the corpse of the dwarf who had taken off his pants and snorted coldly. "However, I think you should take care of your people first. They went to find their own death, and I can't blame it. ”

“...... It seems that the wait has been in place for these few days. We have many more opportunities to have a good exchange. The leader of the golden stone gritted his teeth and looked at the masked man with a fierce look in his eyes, rubbing his hands together and making a tooth-aching sound.

###

"Alright, it should be fine when we get here. ”

At sunset, Baron Atokin, who was looking to the north from afar, seemed to be looking at the town of Gray Valley, which had long been invisible, and let out a long breath: "We have been walking slowly for more than two days, and no matter how much those dwarves and cultists chase them, they will not be able to catch up here." ”

"I think so. This time, I would like to thank Lord Atokin for his help. As a baron of the Empire, you are alone to rescue the two of us. When I return, I will certainly publicize your deeds. Gao Wen on the side also nodded, his face full of sincerity.

"No, no. Baron Atokin immediately waved his hands and sighed again, his chubby face showing a sense of depression. "Actually, I came alone because I didn't want people to know. You probably don't understand that for the noble families of the West Coast, anything that spreads on the Northern Legion will end up in a mess, a mess of sludge. I really can't bear to see the two of them die in it, but I don't want to be remembered by those people in the legion afterwards, whether it can find out the black sheep who colluded with the cultists, and in the end, most of the legion's top brass are looking for someone to carry the blame, and I don't want to be involved in the Rothschild family at that time. So please don't spread the word about me. ”

"This... As you wish. Gawain bowed. "But here, I'm going to turn east to the Coldwind Fortress. There is a deal of collusion between the scum and the dwarves and cultists in the Legion, and I must inform the adults in the Legion who are connected to us. ”

"That's as it should be. Baron Atokin nodded. "Then you have to be careful, the Northern Army is already a mess of mud, and it is difficult for outsiders to judge the situation inside. Then I'll go back to Oss City with Mr. Wind first. ”

Feng Yinqiu shook his head: "No, I will also go with Knight Gawain to have a look, I also have a great interest in the Northern Legion." And I can also have a care with Lord Gawain. ”

"Ah, this...... Won't you go back with me?"

"No need. Thank you for rescuing us, and thank you for giving me a lot of arcane knowledge over the past two days. But I would like to follow Knight Gawain to visit the headquarters of the Northern Legion. In such a chaotic situation, I hope to hire soldiers from the Northern Legion to help our envoys to Oroyosta. ”

"This ......." Baron Atokin hesitated a little, but after thinking about it, it seemed that there was no reason to refuse, so he could only nod. "Then you two have to be careful. ”

Seeing the figure of Baron Atokin riding a horse gradually heading south in the setting sun, Gawain said lightly: "It seems that this Baron is not deep in this mud. He pulled us out, as if he was afraid that we would really die in it, and the trouble would be too great for him to bear. Or simply want to leave a way back for yourself, even if the matter is revealed in the future, you can get out of it. ”

Feng Yinqiu also said lightly: "He knew about it when we first set off to Gray Valley Town, but he ignored it, and then hurriedly came alone, it seems that it is very likely that something happened after we left Osstar City that made him change his mind." It's a pity that I haven't been able to get anything useful out of his mouth in the past two days. ”

"Every member of the Mage's Council is an old fox who has been honed for years. Gawain smiled slightly. "Although the noble mages have gradually forgotten why they are noble, and have gradually become a group of moths who only know how to play tricks to gain profits, it will not be a simple moth that can stand out from a group of moths. Speaking of this, Gawain's face was slightly strange. "But in fact, he did save us. Isn't it a bit despicable and shameless for us to speculate on him maliciously behind our backs?"

Feng Yinqiu smiled and asked, "Then what are you going to do now?"

"Of course. I have to report this to a senior friend of the Legion who has been friends for many years, and I hope to give him a chance to purge the Legion. He had been waiting for such an opportunity for many years. The people of the West Coast have also been looking forward to a Northern Legion that does not collude with the nobles and does not work as bandits and bandits for many years. Gao Wen replied lightly. "What about you, will you come with me?"

Feng Yinqiu shook his head: "No, I'm going back to Gray Valley Town." ”

"What?" Gawain was slightly startled. "Although Baron Atokin pulled us out on his own selfish feet, he did not deceive us about the situation. The dwarves, legions, and cultists there have joined forces, and it will be dangerous for you to go back. ”

"And the fact that he can safely part with us here is also sure that even if we turn back, it will be useless. Perhaps in the past two days, the conspiracy of the Legion and the Dwarven Cultists has been completed. ”

"I have a feeling that if I go back now, I will find something, and maybe I will meet the person I am looking for. Feng Yinqiu said lightly, he really had such a faint feeling.

"As for self-preservation, don't worry, Lord Gawain, I have it now. With a smile, Feng Yinqiu took out a thick stack of bundled magic scrolls from his bosom, which looked like there were as many as seven or eight volumes. "Speaking of which, this Baron Atokin is really good, and he has taught me a lot of things in the past two days in order to let me go with him. This was the first time I had a careful conversation with a mage since I came to Euroland, and it was very beneficial. ”

"So no matter what his heart is, just by virtue of what he does, he is absolutely worthy of the title of 'good man'. ”
