Under the leadership of Karen, the two men and the Siren, are forced to follow the witch with their heads bowed, a behavior that makes it easy to understand that the former is the latter's slave. But even so, as the group walked through the corridors that the witches often used, hostile and even murderous gazes would fall on them from time to time. This is not a difficult thing to understand, for a long time, this place has been the most secret fortress of the witch group, relying on the ruthless implementation of the secrecy system, the witches will not and have never thought of making this secret base public, so no one other than the members of the witch group will have the opportunity to spread this secret. This is a rule that even the youngest witches know. But today, it is broken, and the person who breaks it, is the supreme leader of the witch group.

"Don't eat anything, don't drink anything, and if you can, it's better not to breathe the air here. Don't say your names, don't talk to anyone, you won't guess how many ways we can put people to death. She instructed them after she took the three of them to a room that looked only a little better than a cell. Of course, most of this was actually said to Fioni, the mountain monster was already very familiar with dealing with witches, and being able to be chosen as the gatekeeper of the Black Fortress was enough to prove that he was trusted by witches, of course, only a little trust. As for Saihe, although it is a bit cruel to say this, but the original purpose of Jialun to save this child was to use his body as alchemy material, he should have died in that tsunami, and now he has lived too long and seen too many things that he could not and should not see.

When Sach heard Karen's words, his nerves, which had just been slightly relaxed by entering the room, immediately tensed again. He looked at every part of the room suspiciously, for fear that he had missed some deadly threat. The mountain monster was much calmer than that, and the warrior, who had not taken off his armor even after being locked in his cell, took a few steps and sat down on a bench in the room, the wooden bench groaning in protest at the heavy impact, though apparently that did not change the weight of the gatekeeper. This also made Saich, who wanted to sit next to the mountain monster, hesitate for a moment, and then carefully sat on a chair next to him.

"Aren't you going to take a break, and I know you're a warrior in the Kraken, but you're still tired after being hung for so long. Jia Lun said with some confusion. The Siren in her mouth was looking at the room curiously, and it seemed that he didn't take the witch's warnings seriously at all, and she didn't know if he was overwhelmed by curiosity or didn't understand the witch's power. It wasn't until Glenn could speak that Fioni stopped what he was doing, examining an oil painting hanging on the wall.

"As long as I'm still on land, standing or sitting doesn't really cost me much. There's no way we can rest in the air, so it's better to take this opportunity to see more. Even though I have been actively involved with humans, it is very difficult to enter your room and observe the layout and decoration as I do now. "I can hear that the Kraken is not in a low mood right now. Fioni was only half of what he said, he was really excited to observe the human habitation, but what really kept him from even sitting down was his concern about the whereabouts of the other two ordinary humans in the team. Lothar, in particular, as a human who had defeated a giant shark in the sea, Fioni was more interested in him than anything else.

"Whatever you want, this room was originally built as a guest room. It's just that apparently when we built it, we found out that the witch group would not have guests at all. As such, it was never used, so you don't have to worry about triggering any traps or defensive spells. Garren said with his hands on his chest, and then the witch saw that the three of them had no other problems, so she turned around and prepared to leave the room, "I need to wait for Peg to come back to find out what to do with you." You'd better not leave this room in the meantime, as you've already seen the other witches' attitudes toward you. ”

"And what if other witches come in while you're away?" asked Fioni suddenly. The real meaning of his question was to ask Glenn what would happen if they were forced to act to hurt the witch. Although the Kraken had already guessed the outcome, perhaps the witches would have a different opinion on this matter?

Karen didn't give an answer to the Siren's question, she just glanced at the other person and left the room. It was hard to figure out what she meant, was the witch silently telling Fioni that no one else would do such a thing, or did she not care whether the three men lived or died, and were just doing what they were told? And the heavy sound of the door closing had made the chances of several people getting her idea zero.

Time passes minute by minute. The room was eerily quiet except for the occasional footsteps of Fioni. Sach finally relaxed after the exertion, and his eyelids became heavy again, and the mountain monster sitting next to him was probably asleep. In this state of confusion, a voice with a strange tone sounded in the room, "I have a question, can you tell me the answer?" ”

Saich rubbed his eyes, he knew it was the Siren talking, and although he was startled when he first saw the guy named Fioni, the chain of encounters had made it difficult for the poor child to make a fuss about the Siren's appearance anymore. So he replied casually in a half-asleep and half-awake way, "What question?" I don't know much, and if the question you want to ask is too complicated, Hatche, I can't give an answer. ”

Fioni chuckled, revealing a mouth of sharp teeth that were different from those of humans. His footsteps led him back to the frame that had been fiddled with once before when Karen was still there, and looked at the oil painting inside. The painting depicts a woman holding a pet cat with a calm expression, and judging by her gorgeous clothes and intricate headdresses, this woman must have come from a wealthy family. A closer look at the clothing and the breed of the cat in the woman's arms may reveal more information about the owner of the portrait. However, the Kraken didn't care about this, he tilted his head, as if to confirm something, and then said to Saich not far behind him, "It's okay, I don't think my question is difficult to answer." I'm just wondering, is it true that you human beings have something that moves in this ornament called a painting?"
