The depths of the cave are completely dark, and even the stalactites in front of them can only be discerned by touching them.

But the "living corpse" has enough eyesight for Agnes to see what is hidden in the darkness.

The terraced ground is filled with blood-red water, and the natural barrier of the massive stone walls forms a cavern large enough to hold several people.

In it, above the broken and rotting mud, two children hugged each other, their eyes warily fixed on Agnes and the maiden, and the eyes of the torches glowed like hungry wolves.

Agnes and the girl looked at each other, and Agnes walked straight towards the two children, and the girl raised the torch in her hand a little higher.

Agnes crouched down about a meter away from the two children, a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, trying to make herself look more gentle.

One of the two children in front of him looked to be five or six years old, and the other looked to be only three or four years old, covered in mud and unable to see their original faces at all.

Agnes slowly stretched out one of her arms and approached the two children.

What looked like a three- or four-year-old shrank back with a shudder, trying to hide himself in a more corner.

And the child, who looked like he was five or six years old, had more and more fierce eyes, like a beast showing his tiger teeth.

"I'm not going to hurt you, kid." Agnes said in a soft voice.

The child, who looked like he was five or six years old, pounced almost as soon as Agnes finished speaking, and his slightly sharp teeth bit down on Agnes' palm with precision.

Agnes heard a slight "click".

The child who was biting Angnes' palm trembled, and let go of his mouth a little dazedly, and a few white and tender baby teeth fell on the blood-stained stone wall, making a few "click" sounds.

Agnes looked at the suddenly frozen body of the child in front of her, her eyes suddenly reddened, and she had a bad premonition in her heart.

"Wow-" The child in front of him sat back on the ground and suddenly began to cry, "-broken, broken-"

"Wow-"

The younger children, who were hiding in the back, also cried along with the child's crying.

-----------------

Coaxing a child is not an easy task.

Even if Agnes is a nun in the titular Mother Earth God Church, she rarely encounters such a thing.

After all, she had been in the convent of Fenerport for too short, and she was always taken care of by the old nuns in Seville because she was too young.

"She's a child herself!" That's what the old nuns of Seville always say.

This cave is not a place to stay for long, and the dangers lurking are everywhere, both in terms of the cave itself and the dangers of extraordinary power that may arise.

Agnes could only forcibly take the two children out, and the power of the "living corpse" was beyond the resistance of the two children.

The girl with the torch followed behind Agnes in silence, the faint smell of blood gradually disappeared, and the tattered ruins, the lifeless grass and trees, and the scorch marks on the mountain wall were gradually left behind.

The two children seemed to understand something, but they didn't seem to understand anything, but they cried a little harder, and then they fell asleep in Agnes's arms, gradually exhausted.

"Where are you going next?" The girl asked as she walked out of the cliff path, her eyes falling on the two children in Agnes' arms.

"They need a complete check-up." Agnes shook the two children and said casually.

The girl nodded earnestly.

"Is Mr. Chester in Star Plateau?" Agnes asked.

The girl nodded.

"Looks like I'm going to have to be with you." Agnes said with a smile.

The girl looked at Agnes and nodded earnestly.

"Okay." She replied.

-----------------

In front of you is a magnificent city on a hill.

The city made of boulders has an obvious ancient highland style, with strange birds, long snakes, feathers, masks and patterns, you can vaguely see the prosperity of the past, but at the same time there is an inexplicable sense of dilapidation, many houses are vacant, and in some places the fine weeds have stretched out the heavy stones, leaving their own emerald traces in a gray and black area.

"It's a pity." Agnes couldn't help but sigh.

The girl beside her glanced at Agnes and didn't say anything.

She took a few quick steps, and led Agnes quickly across the city's central plaza toward a higher place.

At the highest point of the city, there is a huge pyramid-shaped building, which obviously has a sacrificial function. The gray boulders were almost white in the sunlight, and at the bottom of the stones, verdant weeds grew in the cracks.

"Mr. Chester."

Agnes saw a shadow from afar under the stairs.

The man with jet-black curly hair and bronzed skin looked almost at one with everything around him in the shaded by the sun.

Mr. Chester looked at the two children in front of him, who looked to be fifteen or sixteen years old from the Southern Continent, and hesitated for a moment.

“…… Poyesia? He asked, hesitating and finally saying only his last name.

"No, it's Sharif Hashem." Agnes blinked and said slightly mischievously.

Mr. Chester sighed helplessly, and turned to look at the girl beside him.

"Miss Sharon," Mr. Chester's words said with a hint of respect, "His Highness Tiny Cole has come here. ”

The girl nodded, but her eyes were fixed on Agnes and the two children in Agnes' arms.

"Their inspection...... Mr. Chester should know how to arrange it? Agnes said with an eyebrow raised.

The girl looked at Agnes, as if she wanted to ask something, but finally gave up, just nodded slightly, and walked up the stairs.

"Miss Sharon isn't what you just meant." Mr. Chester said, looking at Sharon's back.

"I know," said Agnes, blinking, "she just never officially told me her name before you said it, Mr. Chester. ”

"Uh......" Mr. Chester's words stuck.

"Seriously, the more you don't speak, the less you want to speak, and the more you don't know what to say when it's time to say it." Agnes sighed.

Mr. Chester turned his head to look at Agnes and said in a calm tone, "It seems that you have a lot of feelings. ”

Agnes looked into Mr. Chester's eyes and blinked.

"Okay, let's change the subject." Agnes whispered.

"I heard that Attorney Pagani in Ellesmere Harbor suddenly left his job some time ago, ran to Bellens, stayed for a day, and rushed back." Mr. Chester looked at Agnes and said slowly, "I heard he wasn't in a good mood when he went back. ”

"Mr. Chester, you're really well-informed." Agnes said in a voice that bordered on muttering.

Mr. Chester didn't react, just looked at Agnes.

"Well, I'll admit, I didn't let him see me." Agnes gradually retracted all her expressions in Mr. Chester's gaze.

"It's raining in the world, and I'm the one who braves the rain to move forward, and someone comes to me to hold an umbrella for me, and I'm grateful to them." Agnes curled the corners of her mouth slightly and whispered, "But there's no need. ”

"I want to move forward, the rain is the price that must be paid, and the umbrella is a burden that I throw away."

"They don't have to hold an umbrella for me, because if I can't walk fast, they will get wet."

"There's no need."
