262 knots, strange injuries

The next morning, the sun shone in through the small window on the cell wall, giving a hint of warmth.

But Dante didn't have it easy, he didn't sleep all night, thinking about how to break free from the enchanted ropes on his body. If he can break free, he can summon the Demon King Sword and find an opportunity to kill it.

Now it seems that only Fording has the ability to subdue him, and the other human soldiers are completely inadequate.

Dante tried all means to grind the rope by all possible means that night, such as the edge of the table, the edge of the bed, or the edge of some brick protruding from the wall, but to no avail, the enchanted rope was unusually strong, and he worked all night and grinded for a long time, and the rope did not move.

"Holy!" Dante sighed, sat down on the bed, and thought to himself, this really can't be helped. It seems that he can only wait for the opportunity to run on the escort road. Alas, Gade, can you give it a little harder? Why hasn't there been any movement yet?

"Gala"

Just as he was thinking, the door of the room was pushed open, and Fordin, who was heavily armed, walked in with four paladins.

“……”

Dante looked at the five paladins and was silent, he had not eaten since he was captured, and his stomach was already very hungry. Although he has the power of a demon king, Dante can last a long time even if he does not eat or drink, but hunger and thirst still make him feel exhausted.

"Demon, it looks like you didn't sleep well last night?" In a slightly sarcastic tone, Ferding said to Dante, "It's normal, death is imminent, and even the most ferocious monsters will be afraid." ”

"Hehe......" "Hehe......"

The other four paladins snickered smirked when they heard their leader say this.

"No more nonsense!" Dante said disapprovingly. "It's not over yet! My head hasn't been cut off yet, so what's the point of you saying these sour words? ”

"Humph!" Ferding heard his sarcastic words. As if very annoyed, he pulled out his long sword and slashed at Dante's neck!

Dante was shocked, thinking, my life is over, so he closed his eyes and waited for death. He only felt a touch on his neck with a sharp edge, but it didn't hurt!

"Ahh Fording yelled. Dante hurriedly opened his eyes. Seeing that Fording had already withdrawn his sword. Fording must have used a long sword to cut his own neck just now, what the hell happened? Could it be that when the sword that Ferding swung out touched his neck? Bounced back by the power of the Demon King?

"Hell!" Furding cursed and said, "This guy can't even be killed with the Holy Light Sword!" It's disgusting! ”

Holy lightsaber? It turns out that Ferdin's strange-shaped long sword is called the "Holy Light Sword"? It seemed that it was the power of the Demon King that saved Dante's life, and he flicked the sword of light back that had been cut over.

"Haha!" Dante laughed. Say. "I said that, right? Fordin, you can't kill me now. The winner is still undecided! Hey, hey, hey! ”

"Cut!" Although Ferding was angry, he was helpless. He beckoned for four paladins to grab Dante and carry him out of the room.

As soon as he walked out of the room, Dante found that it was a large military camp located in the jungle outside!

The small room in which he was held was located in a pillbox on the walls of the barracks. The barracks was enclosed by a square wall that housed barracks, blacksmiths, and warehouses. People came and went, and there were soldiers who were training in the morning. There were handymen carrying supplies and goods, and soldiers waiting in line to receive breakfast.

The entire barracks is very large, and at a cursory glance, it can accommodate almost 2,000 soldiers for accommodation and training. If there is a special need, it can even accommodate 5,000 people for wartime rest.

Large crossbow and artillery batteries were installed on the walls of the barracks, and several groups of soldiers patrolled back and forth, which could be described as heavily guarded, and not even a bird could fly in.

What made Dante even more aware was that this barracks also had the Gnome's combat flying machines. There were three combat aircraft patrolling back and forth in the sky.

Griffons are a characteristic class of the griffon kingdom, and perhaps only the griffon kingdom has the right climate and geography to raise griffins. It seems that there are no griffins in the Kingdom of Light.

"Demon, do you see that?" Ferdin, pointing to the large barracks, said to Dante, "This is only a very small part of the forces of the Kingdom of Light. Our troops can destroy your demon army at any time! ”

"Hehe......" Dante, of course, did not show weakness, but sneered at each other, "Well, I have seen it!" It's just that I wonder why you are so powerful, why would you sit and watch the griffon kingdom be destroyed by the undead? Aren't you guys amazing? Why don't you go for reinforcements? Well? ”

"......" Fording and the four paladin's subordinates were silent when they heard Dante's question. They seem to have something to hide, but they certainly won't tell Dante.

"Humph!" Verding snorted and said to Dante, "How do you know we didn't go for reinforcements?" Do we need you, the devil, to take care of the affairs of our alliance? ”

He seemed annoyed by Dante's questioning, and shouted to the four paladins, "Escort the demon to the portal!" ”

"Yes!" The paladins answered, grabbing Dante and pushing him down the stairs of the wall. The "portal" that Ferding refers to is probably the teleportation device set up by the magicians, presumably in some of the barracks below.

Reluctantly, Dante was pushed down the stairs, while Fordin followed the four paladins downstairs.

Unexpectedly, just as he walked down the stairs and walked out of the city wall building, a soldier ran up to him in a panic and reported to Fordin: "Report to the general, another blacksmith has been wounded!" ”

"What?" When Fording heard the soldier's report, an expression of surprise appeared on his face, and then his face became very ugly. With a gloomy face, he asked the soldier, "Is the situation the same as everyone else?" ”

"Ah, yes...... Yes......" The soldier also seemed to be panicked, and when he heard Fordin's question, he nodded, and continued, "The hands are basically, scrapped!" ”

Blacksmith's hands scrapped? Dante stood aside, and naturally heard this conversation, and wondered in his heart, thinking, what is going on? Did the blacksmith pour his hands with molten iron while forging it? The first time I heard that striking iron would destroy your hands.

He looked curiously at Fordin and the reported soldier, hoping to hear more.

Apparently unwilling to let Dante see what was going on in his troops, Fordin beckoned and said to the four paladins who were holding Dante: "Don't let him see, hurry up and escort him away!" ”

"Yes!"

The four paladins were given the order and forced Dante to walk towards a barracks not far away, presumably in the barracks where the portal set up by the magicians was.

"Ah...... Yes...... Woo...... Woo......"

Before he had gone a few paces, Dante heard a desolate groan not far away, and he could not help but look in the direction from which the sound came, and saw two soldiers approaching with a stretcher, on which lay a man, covered with a quilt, dressed not like a soldier but like a blacksmith.

Could this man be the wounded blacksmith he just mentioned?

"General, he's dying!" A soldier carrying a stretcher said to Fordin, "He wants to see you!" ”

"What?" Furding was shocked, hurried over to the stretcher, and looked at the blacksmith.

"Will ...... Checkmate...... I ......" The blacksmith covered a small thin quilt, and saw him move, and with difficulty stretched out his hand from the quilt. As soon as these hands stretched out, everyone around them was taken aback!

Oh, my God! These hands, all blackened, as if they had been charred by fire! The five fingers on the palm of the hand can no longer see the flesh and skin, just like the branches of charred wood, very terrifying! The blackened part of the palm extends all the way to the joints of the arm, and it looks so disgusting that you want to vomit!

Dante was stunned, as were the four paladins who were escorting him. Several people stayed where they were, forgetting to continue walking.

Furding looked at the poor blacksmith with his charred hands in front of him, sighed, and put his palm to the blacksmith's hands. I saw that the palm of his hand kept flashing with golden light, which should be the Holy Healing Technique of the Paladin.

"Boom"

After a few waves of healing light, the blacksmith's black-charred hands still didn't change. Dante noticed that Fortin was quietly shedding tears.

"General...... I...... I really ......" the blacksmith had reached the last moment, and with his last breath, said to Fording tremblingly, "I ...... It's true...... Try your best......" After spitting out these words intermittently, the blacksmith tilted his head, closed his eyes, and hung his hands limply.

Stillin was silent, bowing to the dead blacksmith, and the soldiers next to him also bowed in salute. At this time, the four paladins who escorted Dante came to their senses and continued to twist Dante towards the barracks.

"Dangdang Dang"

At this moment, the alarm bell in the barracks suddenly rang! (To be continued......)
