Chapter Seventy-Nine: Conversation in the Dungeon
Dark, cold, damp, and long, deep tunnels, layer upon layer, seemed to lead to the abyss of death. The flickering candles of the pen &www.biquge.info amp; fun & pavilion lie quietly in the recesses of the surrounding walls, and the faint candlelight can only bring a faint guide to the surroundings, and under this candlelight, you can see a series of irregularly shaped simple nests like beehives on both sides of the tunnel, these nests without exception have a black iron fence door, and are sealed by heavy iron chains.
This is an unknown place in the Rakshasa Tower, a prison underground.
The Dark Clan knew that the Rakshasa Tower was nearly 100 meters tall, but few knew that it was actually the same size underground, because the craftsmen who built it were buried here along with the hewn soil. The reason for this secrecy is that there are many important secrets hidden in each layer below, and this last layer is this terrifying and eerie prison. It seems that the reason for the prison was built here was to make the people who were locked here feel the breath of hell at any time.
Although there were hundreds of hive-like cells in this lowest prison, and every few cells would be guarded by a heavily armed Demon Rock Clan's giant, but there was not a single prisoner looking through the iron door, and it was not until they reached the deepest part of the tunnel that they faintly heard a few faint gasps and whispered laments.
By the faint light of the candles, it was vaguely visible that there were three Terrans locked up in the innermost cells, an old man sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, a woman caressing the iron fence blocked by the dark shadow of the cell, and a middle-aged man who was prone and lamenting softly.
The empty cell was constantly echoing with the man's moans and the sound of water dripping from the leak somewhere, as if to accompany the man's lamentation.
After a while, this discordant "movement" was interrupted by a heavy footstep, and the old man with his eyes closed slowly opened his eyes and watched the dark shadow outside the iron fence gradually come by.
"Bodor University Scholar ......" The woman leaned out of the dark shadow after hearing the voice, and although there were a few wrinkles on her face, she could not hide her noble temperament and beautiful outline.
If the warriors of the human race are here at this time, they will definitely recognize them, they are the university scholar Bodol, the city lord Qingyu, and the old city lord's wife Mu Ning who have suffered a sudden change in Qingyun City and become the prisoners of Nadas, and except for a few of them, there is no clansman here, and they dare not speculate on the current results of the other clansmen.
The scholar waved his hand and motioned for her not to speak, he knew that silence was the best way to escape without absolute certainty.
However, there are still people who are unwilling to remain silent.
"Wine ...... Wine...... I want wine...... It hurts...... It's so uncomfortable!" The voice of a drunkard like a drunkard in a restaurant rang out in the cell next to the university scholar, which was Qingyu's cell. Qingyu slowly got up from the ground, his weed-like hair scattered across his face, and his hands groped for the iron fence to look out.
Hearing this, the scholar shook his head helplessly, he knew that what he did at this time would be useless, not to mention that there was an impregnable wall, so he could only pray to the dragon to protect Qingyu's wail without causing disgust from the comer, and he accidentally killed him. However, dying in this tomb-like cell also has the advantage that even a funeral does not have to be held.
The shadow was getting closer, and as the huge body pressed into the small tunnel, Bodor was a little disappointed, knowing that the person who came was not a person who could speak, and that it must be the one who brought them food, as usual.
Sure enough, a three-meter-tall demon rock giant, with a face that was a little ugly, fingers as thick as a child's arm, carrying a black basket, swayed and walked.
Seeing a few weak Terrans poking their heads out, the giant's eyes the size of briquettes had a hint of mockery at the captive, and he muttered a tribal sentence loudly.
Bodor could understand the language of the Demon Rock Clan, and knew that he was saying, "Stupid Terran, come and eat your pig food!", which is the more "friendly" translation of the university scholars. His brow furrowed slightly, and he could only endure such insults.
The Demon Rock Giant walked to Qingyu's cell and stood still, looking at the person crying and begging in front of him with a blank face, the Demon Rock Giant did not understand Mandarin, so he did not know that he was not begging to let him go, but begging for wine. However, no matter how the weak man in front of him called, he was indifferent, and slowly took out a huge key from his waist and opened the iron gate of the fence that was locked with iron chains.
When the iron door opened, Qingyu pounced like a mad dog that had been locked up for a long time. However, the price of exchange was a heavy kick from the Demon Rock Giant, and after Qingyu's body hit the hard prison wall, he let out a muffled sound and collapsed to the ground, but his mouth was still making a faint sound.
Mu Ning had been nervous, listening closely to what had happened, and when Qingyu was kicked back to the cell by the Demon Rock Giant, her heart finally let go of it, because it was better to be beaten than to lose her life.
The Demon Rock Giant ignored Qingyu, who was already as soft as a puddle of mud, but took out a piece of hard dry food from the basket and threw it on him, continuing to complete his task, he himself knew in his heart that the reason why these Terrans were still alive and locked up here must have the value of their lives, and if one died in his hands, then he would not be able to escape his responsibility.
The giant walked out of Qingyu's cell, relocked the heavy chains, and then threw the dry food in the basket into the cells of the university and Mu Ning in turn, and then turned and slowly left.
The scholar picked up the piece of dry food, it was cold and hard, and he didn't know what it was made of. But no matter what it is, as long as he can replenish his strength and wait for a while, he believes that things will definitely turn around.
"University scholar ......" Mu Ning's voice broke the silence for a long time, and her voice trembled a little, "Xiaotian, Xiaokong, they ......"
Mu Ning's words were a little vague, in fact, the university scholars also knew what she was going to say, and after a month of patience, the two people who avoided talking about it finally mentioned it. Because there could be enemy eyeliners everywhere, Mu Ning didn't want to reveal the news of the children to the enemies who had plundered them, even if she didn't know that they already knew.
Bodore's eyes were closed, but his thoughts didn't stop. They had become prisoners overnight, and then they had been plundered here, and it had been more than a month now, and they hadn't seen a second person every day except for the one time that the Demon Rock Giant had brought them food.
When they were first arrested, the university scholars thought that they were plotted by the enemy, such as Mu Zhidu, who had always had a conflict of interest with them, and even thought of the Silver Trace Castle, which had a deep blood feud with Qingyun City, but when the Demon Rock Giant sent them dry food for the first time, they knew that the other party was actually the Dark Alliance, and their hearts changed from the initial shock and even some fear, to calm and habitual, and began to think about ways to prepare for all kinds of unexpected things.
Although there is no news about the current situation of Qingyun City, Bodor has almost guessed that the oldest city of the human race should be controlled by the dark forces.
However, what Bodor and Mu Ning are most worried about is the Qingtian and Qingkong who have entered the Dragon Valley, especially the Qingtian who is pinned on the hope of the revival of Qingyun City. Because the time has passed since the gate of Dragon Valley is closed, what is their situation? Have they left Dragon Valley safely? Have they escaped the changes in Qingyun City? Do they know that they are imprisoned in this cold dungeon?
"Ma'am, things are getting a little complicated now...... Not seeing the two young masters around us should be their best situation, and the only thing we can do now is wait. I hope that the Dragon Atlas will protect and bless the young master of Qingtian and let the young master of Qingtian be successfully promoted to the Qingtian, and this is only the first step, because the dark forces have been silent for so many years, and they must have been planning something to attack us suddenly......" The old voice of the university scholar responded to Mu Ning.
"What's planned...... Could it be ......" Mu Ning's voice trembled a little, she seemed to recall the scene when her lover Qingfeng was cut down by that demon with a black sword many years ago, every time this image flashed through her mind, it was like experiencing that pain again, and she didn't want this pain to be inflicted on Qingtian and Qingkong again.
"Hmph, what else can these worldly minions plan, it must be their immortal ambition that has once again overcome their reason. Bodor snorted coldly.
Although Bodor thought that no matter what the dark forces had, they would not succeed, he still had a trace of anxiety and said: "It's just that the time for their resurgence is a little fast, the blow given to them by the Battle of Zhongzhou is extremely huge, not to mention the loss of more than half of the army, even their leader Nadas is dead." If it weren't for the powerful advantage they had gained, it was that they were looking for their own death. ”
Hearing the analysis of the scholars, Mu Ning suddenly remembered a painful past, a sentence said by the faceless cloaked man who made trouble at the Terran Heroes Conference more than ten years ago.
"The star of the east is shining, and the destroyer is about to descend ......"
"Could it be the world-destroyer?" Mu Ning said her recollections, but her tone was not very sure, and she didn't want it to be true.
"The world-destroyer?" the scholar suddenly constricted his pupils, and the cloaked man's terrifying screams sounded in his mind, at that time he had doubted what the cloaked man said, but after more than ten years of peace, he gradually forgot that there was such a thing.
"Could it be that the Dark Legion has already found the so-called world-destroyer, and...... Just in our Qingyun City?" The scholar combined what the cloaked man said with the attack on Qingyun City, and said an idea that even scared him.
"The Bodor scholar is indeed the most intelligent and scheming man in the human race!" an empty voice suddenly sounded in the dungeon, and the words of praise seemed a little playful in the voice.
Listening to this "groundless" voice, Bo Duoer and Mu Ning looked around nervously, carefully guarded, but there was a trace of strangeness in their hearts, because this voice was extremely familiar to them, and it was a bit like the voice of the sky.
What shocked them even more, though, was the man who quietly appeared in front of them.
