Act 210 Cell No. 7 (400 Monthly Pass Plus Update)
Although the black-clad elves didn't think that White Steel, a fool who didn't know even the most basic stealth techniques, was a threat, they were quite cautious.
As White Steel passed by a black-clad elf with his bag, the elf probed the luggage with his magic. After making sure that there were no other magic items other than the magic necklace enchanted with [Wide Knowledgeable Language] hanging around Bai Gang's neck, he was relieved.
For the ingenious elves, except for magic items, the things produced by humans can be called "shoddy" and worthless at all, so the black-clothed elves are no longer interested in the pus-stained backpack on the white steel back.
As for the magic necklace around Bai Gang's neck, I'm sorry, but in the almost isolated Luna Island, the magic is almost useless, and this necklace is naturally not valuable.
Compared to the threat of being contaminated with the plague, this money is really nothing, and if you have money, you have to spend it!
After leaving the shore, the elves mounted their horses, but White Steel could only be tethered to his hands and carry his things and trot behind him - he was not even allowed to touch his horses due to the plague that might have been contaminated.
After running for half an hour, Bai Gang, who did not dare to use magic to reveal his strength, was already exhausted and out of breath, and only then finally saw their destination - a tree castle full of elf-style style.
The reason why White Steel called the castle in front of it was a tree fort because there was a stone mountain behind the castle and two towering trees standing side by side in front of it!
It was a giant giant that White Steel had never seen before!
The elves hollowed out the interior of the giant tree, then opened out windows and shooting holes, and directly used the giant tree as a tower.
The walls around the castle are made of stone, just like those of humans.
However, the elves are apparently reluctant to do "dirty" work such as chiseling stone and mud, and most of the stones are just scattered on top of each other without any treatment, and no earth is used as a binder between them. Instead, there are plenty of roots and vines!
It's really full of elf style. The elves used their magic to make tree roots and vines grow on the stone walls, filling in the gaps between the stones and holding the entire wall in place.
The hardness of the stone and the flexibility of the vine roots make the "primitive" walls full of natural atmosphere of the elves unexpectedly make the rhythm of an otherworldly version of reinforced concrete. If Bai Gang's guess is correct, this kind of wall is better than those castles in Tuze.
On the outside of the castle, the elves had to give up their instinct for refinement and beauty in order to compromise their defenses, but the environment inside they lived in could not tolerate the rough style of the humans.
Whether it is a window or a door, or an ordinary load-bearing pillar in the corridor, it is a drawing board for the elves to play their artistic cells, and you can always see all kinds of intricate and exquisite patterns on it, most of which are singing the praises of nature and gods.
The most surprising thing for Bai Gang was that the place where he saw these patterns was not the main hall of a castle, but a remote dungeon!
If you were a human, who would put more effort into a place like a dungeon!?
That's right, humans like White Steel who have come into contact with the corpses of plague patients are absolutely not allowed to pollute the core area of the castle.
White Steel was escorted all the way to the cell guards by the elves in black.
The black-clothed elf said, "May the Moon Goddess always smile at you." ”
The guard said, "The smile of the goddess will bless you as well." ”
"We've brought a human here."
The guard was startled, picked up the lantern and looked at it carefully in front of the white steel, and said in surprise: "Human? Why are there humans on Lunas Island!? ”
"Yes, a human being. Unfortunately, his boat was washed up in an accident, and even more unfortunately, the place where he landed was a pile of corpses, on which he slept for a while. ”
The guard looked at Bai Gang with a sympathetic expression: "It's really pitiful, it's the first time I've seen a guy who can be unlucky enough to be like this." So, what are you bringing this unlucky man to me? Is it to let the hapless guys inside know that they are not the unluckiest in fact? ”
The black-clothed elf smiled, "How is it possible! The stone walls of the cave were broken, and we needed him to work while he was still fully ill. Get him a cell. ”
"Well, it's true that quite a few cells have just been vacated." The guard was about to get the key, when suddenly something came to mind, "Wait, how long will it take for the wall to be repaired?" ”
"It's going to take about two or three days, what's wrong?"
"And do you still need him after the wall is repaired?"
"No, it's not needed anymore."
The guard smiled, "Then I'll put him in cell seven." ”
The black-clothed elf was taken aback: "Seven!?" That's the cell where Gilnath is being held! Are you crazy!? Her lord had explicitly instructed her not to come into contact with any elves! ”
The guard pointed at Bai Gang and smiled, "Is he an elf?" No, no, the Lord just ordered that Gilnas should not be allowed to come into contact with the elves, but he is a human! How could a human who had drifted to the island from the outside be one of those royal parties? ”
The black-clothed elf was stunned for a moment, and hesitated a little: "This ......"
"Okay, okay, don't see it! Gilnas, that madman, is already sick! Every time I went to deliver food, she spat in my face, oh my! I almost threw up by her this morning! If it weren't for the adults who needed her to live, I would have wanted to starve her to death!
You need someone to help move the corpses and build the wall, and I need someone to take care of that madman, don't I? ”
The black-clad elves looked at each other and finally agreed.
Everyone is doing a horrible errand that requires constant contact with the plague patients, and it is better to turn a blind eye to this kind of thing.
Anyway, what the guard said makes sense, the adults just don't want Gilnas to contact the royal party and leak the news, if the contact is human, there should be no problem, of course a human can't be the royal party.
"Alright, let's go to cell seven."
The guard happily thanked, "Thank you." Haha, this has helped me a lot, I'm not on duty tonight, please have a drink of 'Moonlight Grass'!"
The guard took out the key and opened a side door next to him, pointed to the dark corridor inside and said to Bai Gang: "Go in, there is a utility room in the innermost, go and throw your bag in." ”
The utility room was full of patients' things, and the elves didn't want to touch them at all, and they didn't even have the idea of following up!
Anyway, it's all sealed, and it's impossible to escape.
By the dim light of the moonlight grass lamp behind him, Bai Gang slowly touched the utility room, then opened the door and walked in, taking advantage of this opportunity, he quickly touched some necessary equipment and hid it on his body.
