Chapter 126: New Troubles
"Hey Belina! What are you doing? Will you make a fire? ”
It was already noon outside the Holy Land, and the two men in front of the small tent were crouching there roasting unknown beasts, both of them were gray-faced, and their clothes were dirty, and they looked extremely embarrassed, and Odelia, because she had no body, was now just a lifeless rusty sword.
They had been living like primitives since Felik had entered the Holy Land, and had been squatting outside for a month, and just yesterday Claudia had come to tell them both that Felik had woken up.
"Anyway, why didn't the head of the regiment come to see us?"
"I don't know, I really want to go into the Holy Land to see, but how do I get in?" Belina muttered to herself as she stared at a small wildflower next to her.
That's right, this wildflower in front of her is the entrance to the holy land, the holy land of the blood clan that no one has found for a thousand years, exists on this wildflower, with the knowledge that Belina knows, it is definitely not easy to create a stable interdimensional space, even if she is the eye of the law breaker, and there is a huge amount of magic knowledge in her mind, but this magic technology is also unheard of. I'm afraid that only a great sage like Doyle knows the principle of this magic.
"Belina, there's no meat." Afra pulled the mallet-like leg bone out of her mouth and threw it on the ground, dragging her chin with a look of dissatisfaction, and at this time the ground was already full of bones, and no one knew how such a small body could stuff so much food.
"You've killed all the beasts in the neighborhood, and once in a while you have to eat vegetables, so let's go to town and buy something." Belina suggested.
Hearing this proposal, Afra's eyes rolled and she thought to herself, the days of eating meat without seasoning for a few days were very painful, even Afra, who eats meat as a meal, can't help but be a little tired, since Belina is going to go to the town market to buy vegetables, wouldn't it be beautiful to steal money to buy condiments while the other party is buying vegetables?
"Okay, let's go buy some vegetables." Afra agreed.
Seeing that the meat-hungry Afra agreed without complaining, Belina was also slightly surprised. The two of them left the camp for a while, and walked all the way to the nearest town, where the winding path in the field meandered like a snake to the small town not far away, which was the place where the merchants of the former empire's main business roads often stayed temporarily, and the town was already quite rich just by providing food and lodging, but after the disappearance of the imperial capital, I am afraid that the life of the inhabitants here will become more and more difficult.
When they came to the market, Belina and Afra walked down the streets, and they always felt that the town had lost its life.
The fall of the imperial capital has affected this town, and even if it seems that everyone's business has not been affected too much now, everyone knows what the consequences of the destruction of the imperial capital, which is the transportation hub of the empire, will eventually lose its former glory.
At the tea stall next to it, two businessmen with large bags and small bags on their backs discussed the future with sad faces.
"Hey, is it really going to split into six countries?"
"Isn't it, but even if there is a place to stay, it won't be so peaceful, have you heard? Last time, the woman who saved a lot of civilians in the imperial capital was going to be executed as a heretic. ”
"What? Is it the woman with the black tattoo?! One of the merchants exclaimed in surprise and got up from his chair: "She rescued me, and I went back and forth several times, and saved hundreds of people, and such a person could be a heretic, impossible!" ”
The merchant's companion carefully pulled him and said softly: "Don't talk nonsense, there are people from the Holy See everywhere now, and it's very chaotic." ”
Belina listened to it all, and her expression slowly became solemn, and she probably guessed who the heretic was.
"Hey, Belina, I bought a lot of spices~~ We can go back, don't buy vegetables today, in exchange, I'll roast meat today, how about it?"
In the distance, Afra happily jumped over with a few small bags of spices, and when she saw Belina's serious expression, Afra felt that something might be wrong.
"Afra, we must see the regimental commander right away."
"What's wrong?"
"There's big trouble."
……
"Hey, it's been half a month since Lord David locked up the heretic, isn't this guy angry with Lord David, and he should suffer this kind of crime."
The guard looked at Walter who was chained to the stake, and shook his head while staggering, Walter's head on the stake was drooping, his body was scarred, and the bruises and pink skin made her look like she hadn't suffered much torture, but in fact, it was because of the strong recovery power after the demonization that Walter had been able to sustain herself to this day.
She is determined to bury the secret of the magic potion in her heart, a careerist like David, if he tells him the secret of the magic potion, he will definitely do everything possible to study his body, and if he masters such an evil technology, then she will not be the only "heretic" at that time, and then the balance of the seven gods will probably be broken, and the broken empire will usher in a second catastrophe, so even if he dies, Walter will not tell this secret.
Creak.
The cell door was opened, and it was for food delivery.
And today David also came, and with David came an old man who looked obscene.
David unchained her and shoved the plate of rice mixed with yellow sand in front of her.
"Eat."
Without the restraint of the chains, she didn't even have the strength to stand, and fell directly to the ground, looking at the thing in front of her that was not food at all, the gray light in her eyes flashed.
She had been eating this food that even dogs didn't eat for a week, and when she chewed, the grains of sand creaked between her teeth, grinding her mouth, and the blood in her mouth mixed with the pitiful grains of rice and swallowed, and there was a burning pain in her throat. She had known that her end was death, and she was ready to die, and death would only require a hunger strike, but for some reason, every time like this, she would reach for the plate of food.
As yesterday, she began to "enjoy" this painful Chinese meal.
"My lord, why don't you give her to me, I will definitely let her say it." The old man spoke in a hoarse voice.
David glanced at the other party coldly and shook his head: "Do you think your tricks against ordinary prisoners will be useful to her?" ”
"Hehe, the old man has a unique way of interrogating female prisoners." The old man let out a sinister laugh, and the surroundings of his face were piled up, looking disgusting, and the average person who is engaged in torture will become like this after a long time, and his mind will be abnormal.
"It's useless, she's ready to die, I feel it." David looked at Walter who was eating on the ground, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
Why is it that someone who has no love is eating food that dogs don't eat?
To survive?
Definitely not!
David was sure that there was something hidden deep in this woman's heart, that mysterious thing called hope that she did not even know about, but who longed so deeply that she could endure such cruel treatment before the day of her death.
"My lord, since you think the old man can't let her speak, then why do you torture her every day?"
David sneered and replied, "I just want to see how much that thing in her heart can make her endure torture." ”
After saying this, David left the prison without looking back, and the old man kicked over the rice bowl in front of Walter, and turned away with a cold snort.
The two guards walked in and tied Walter to the stake with chains again, and a new round of torture was about to begin in the afternoon, Walter took a deep breath and gritted his teeth......
