If you want to know where the most dangerous place is in Ebolden, the nobles will tell you that it is the civilian area south of the city, the wizards will tell you that it is the civilian area south of the city, and the beggars in the civil area south of the city will tell you that it is the gutter alley. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

And for those who are truly familiar with the history of Ebotden and some of its hidden secrets, it is clear to them that the most dangerous part of the city is not above ground, but underground.

The gutter alleys of the civilian district south of the city were at best the dirt on Eberden's richly dressed and seductive lady, and the mud spots on her sharp heels were harmless.

And the sewers of Ebolden, which is simply a vast and complex labyrinth, can be found in every corner of the city. She is the shadow of Ms. Eboden, her poor, dirty, dangerous, horrific and eternally malicious twin sister.

Millions of people living in this "underground city" are struggling to survive in the turbid air, cold and damp darkness, and never-ending sewage.

This is not a refuge, this is a prison, where everything that is not contained by the sun is contained in the Ebolden - these "black households" are afraid to even leave the sewers, and they are not even qualified to survive when they get there.

Workshops and shops do not accept strangers who have no way out, thieves, beggars and robbers are held by gangsters, and the nobility never shows mercy to these "people".

This is the real underworld, and a world that has been completely forgotten by the people of the upper world, the sewage system that houses the city's dirt, the last "shelter" for all the dregs, the homeless, the condemned and the unemployed.

"Be careful, the roads here are very complicated, and if you go wrong, you will never get out. ”

Somewhere along the sewers, Loren and Peter, along with five night watchmen, walked slowly along the wall. Six people lined up, one after the other, holding a torch in one hand against the wall.

And Loren, who has a special identity, is also in a very "special" position - neither the front nor the back, but just behind Peter, not only to monitor himself, but also to ensure that he can't escape.

Even now, he could feel the red-haired girl named "Vera" behind him, staring at his back with wide eyes like a thief, as if he would make some "small moves" if he didn't pay attention to himself.

But for the black-haired wizard, none of this is a problem - this is not the first time he has not been suspected, and it is even about to turn into a terrible "curse", and it will take a lot of effort to gain the least trust.

Is it really bad to talk yourself, why have you never felt that way?

Loren, who was in a kind of "panic", held the wall with his right hand, and his fingertips kept touching it, but he didn't even touch the gap between the bricks.

The structure of the sewer was peculiar, he had discovered it from the time he first came in - it didn't look like it was made of bricks and stone at all, it looked more like it was dug out in one go.

This is a bit of a strange description, because sewer construction is not something that can be done by digging a hole in the ground. This should be a large and complex building, and it is impossible to do without artificial masonry.

And this wall, in all the information known to Loren, there is only one kind of wall that can have this kind of smooth feel that is completely undented, and that is the wall made by the high-level magic spell "Rock Will".

Could it be that the entire sewer system was built with this high-level spell? It's unbelievable - but considering that this is the stronghold of Ebolden, the wizards, it seems impossible.

It should be said that this is the only place where so many wizards who can use high-level magic spells can be gathered to complete such a huge building, right?

"Can you answer me a question, how did you find us?"

Peter Fasha, who was walking in the front, asked without looking back, his slightly heavy tone similar to that of the two of them when he was in the Nine-Pointed Star Wizard Tower, and even a little hoarse.

"I bribed the leader of the Crutch Gang, and he told me that someone had seen you go in and out of the sewers. Loren lied without blinking: "Since you're going to escape, you'll definitely find the nearest sewer entrance after getting rid of the stalkers - so I'll just go there and wait for you first." ”

That's right, he was the leader of the "buy-in" Crutch Gang, but he also gave away the entire Crutch Gang and Vansteno's corpse.

"It's that simple?!" Peter was still a little incredulous.

"It's that simple?" the black-haired wizard shook his head, "It's not something that can be explained in two sentences, unlike you, I'm alone, and I know almost nothing about the city. ”

Peter fell silent.

"I've already answered you a question, should you answer me too?" Without waiting for the other party to agree, Loren asked directly, "How did you sneak into the Bellini family mansion?"

“...... Mentor Birdlaire, he is our informant. After a moment's hesitation, Peter Fasa decided to tell Loren the truth: "In his name, we managed to replace the other two pairs of guests who were supposed to come, and then I disguised myself as a waiter to sneak in." ”

Speaking of this, Peter Fasa was also a little excited: "This is our last chance, the Bellini family is very strict with Aalto and his Holy Blood Elixir, whether it is in the mansion or in the Nine-Pointed Star Wizard Tower, we have no chance of success!"

Only this time, in order to show off the results of his research, he would definitely show off the potion, so we would gamble everything, even if Mentor Birdlaire didn't really want to help us this time. But alas, it still failed. ”

Although Peter didn't say it explicitly, when his words fell, Loren could still feel the angry eyes behind him—if he hadn't stopped them, they might have succeeded.

Without looking, Loren could guess what the night watchmen were thinking...... Part of the reason, of course, is because it's true.

"If I'm not mistaken, what Rut Infinit wants is the recipe for the Holy Blood Elixir, not just a sample, right?" the black-haired wizard asked, pretending to be inadvertent, "Even if you do succeed, what will the result be?"

"At least we can figure out how to analyze its construction, maybe we can...... Reasoned out the recipe!"

Even Peter himself couldn't say anything about this strong rebuttal - if it were that easy, there wouldn't be so many lost recipes in this world.

"At least we won't go back in vain!"

Vera, who was following Loren, was not angry that Peter was blocked by this guy who "suddenly appeared" and couldn't speak, and said coldly.

With a slight smile, Loren didn't directly say how ridiculous Peter's reason was, but just shrugged his shoulders: "Although I am not proficient in alchemy and pharmacy, it is probably not easy to reverse the formula from the potion itself."

And you seem to care too much about success or failure once, I think...... We also have the opportunity to obtain the Holy Blood Elixir formula from the hands of the Bellini family. ”

There was a contemptuous sneer behind him, and although Peter Fasa didn't mean to laugh at Loren, he sighed helplessly: "Sometimes I wish I could be as confident as you, Ain...... No, it should be His Excellency Loren Turin. ”

The black-haired wizard couldn't deny that.

He doesn't expect these people to believe in themselves much until they prove themselves.

The battle next to the dry well only made them admit their strength and believe that they were one of them. To gain their absolute trust, Loren has a lot more to do.

And as always, he is very confident in himself. It was only a matter of time before he could gain the trust of these people.

"So...... One last question. Peter Fasha, who stopped, stood in front of a door, still with his back to the black-haired wizard: "What is the note you handed to Aalto Bellini at that time?"

This was the thing that surprised Peter the most—what kind of question could surprise the genius alchemist to the point of almost fear, so much so that he almost gave himself a chance to succeed.

"That note......

A murderous intent flashed in the corner of the black-haired wizard's eyes, but there was still a smile on his face:

"I just wanted to ask him if he knew a man named Isaac Grantham. ”
