Chapter 29: The Temptation of Beauty (2)
Cass walked up to Gwyneth in silence and said, "I owe you a favor, sister. If you can use me in the future, you can just come to me. ”
Gwyneth smiled, her purpose had finally been achieved this time, and Cass had offered it.
"But, before I go, there's one more thing I want to know. ”
"What's the matter?"
"What is happening to Ambelle, what will you do with her?"
"Why do you care so much about a human girl?"
"I'm just asking, and if you don't know or don't want to reveal it, forget it. ”
"She's made a lot of trouble, so ......"
"You've killed her, she's just a human girl who doesn't know anything about the world, and she's also an envoy sent by Sister Radiance, so killing her like this will definitely cast a shadow on our cooperation with the succubus. ”
"When did I say I was going to kill her?"
"She's still alive?"
"Of course. ”
"That ......"
"Locked up. ”
"Locked up with those slaves?"
"It's not. ”
"And where is she?"
"It's enough for you to know she's okay now, and you don't have to inquire about anything else. ”
On the ground, in the Broken Valley region.
The area is called "Broken Valley", and for good reason.
Along the way, everywhere Dara and the others passed, all they could see were broken ravines and valleys, and they couldn't find a complete piece of land. Luckily, however, as they dodged the giant eagles from the sky, they stumbled into a strange valley formed by piles of gravel and ravines, and finally managed to escape the pursuers behind them, and for a long time there were no longer long feathered arrows flying or exploding fireballs falling nearby.
"We've finally gotten rid of them. Lina said.
"Don't get too excited. Vantania said coldly.
"I'm happy with me, what's your business! Are you depressed to see that your companions failed to get us back?"
Vandania snorted, turned her face away, no longer looked at Lina, and quarreled with a human woman, the elegant Vandania certainly didn't take advantage of anything, and there was still a ** share.
Dara is distraught by this, their fugitive career has only just begun, and before they return to Midland, they will be pursued by good men from all sides of the continent of Tuya. Therefore, Dara did not dare to slack off at all, but the two women in the team resented each other because of the death of an elf after the reunion, and they did not like each other, and often quarreled over trivial matters.
Looking at the unconscious little girl in the giant's arms, Dara was so anxious that several days had passed, and Jenny had been in a coma all the time, and her body was very weak. For the sake of Jenny, they must hurry back to the Midland Forest as soon as possible, and only there will be someone able to heal the magical damage suffered by Jonny.
"Did you notice?" Mike asked suddenly.
"Discover what?" said the old dwarf, bewildered.
The gnome, who was held in the arms of the giant like the little girl, was already eagerly crying out, "I know. I know. ”
The dwarf glared at the screaming dwarf and said, "I didn't notice anything, what can you know as a dwarf?"
"Let him talk about it, Todak. Dara said.
The dwarf's face glowed red with excitement, and he said, "Have you noticed, this is actually a labyrinth. ”
"Labyrinth?" everyone except Darla and Mike asked at the same time.
"Yes, look at these passages, and these piles of rubble, it's a labyrinth!"
"He's right, and I realize that we're in a labyrinth. ”
"The Ksei Labyrinth?" Vantanya asked, already reflexing.
"Yes, this labyrinth is the most famous in the Broken Valley region, and without proper judgment, many people will never be able to get out of it after entering. Dara said.
"No wonder we came in for so long and couldn't get out, because we were in a labyrinth. Lina said.
Melissa suddenly exclaimed, "Oh no!"
"What's wrong? What's the ''?" Mike, a samurai on the side, was puzzled.
"I forgot to get the map. Melissa said with some frustration.
"What map?" Mike still asked.
Dara already understood what Melissa meant, and said, "Did the sentinels of the Southern Front fortress have a map of this labyrinth?"
Melissa nodded gracefully, her small gesture made Dara suddenly think of her long-lost first love Funya, and her heart suddenly felt sour, but soon, his mind returned to reality.
"The problem we have to face now is that we only have enough food and water to support our group for three days, so within three days, we have to get out of this labyrinth," Dara said. ”
"Three days?" asked Vantania in surprise, "that is, it is possible for us to wander around this labyrinth for three days and end up with nothing." ”
"Exactly. Three days is still a conservative estimate. The labyrinth is huge, and it may or may not take us more time. ”
"I want to get out!" the dwarf interjected, "we don't have that much time to spend here!"
"Yes, time is precious," said Darla, glancing at the unconscious little girl again, "So, in order not to repeat the route, I ask that the places we pass through must be marked for the rest of the journey." ”
Although Darla's method was very effective, and the crowd no longer ran around like the headless flies before, when they walked into the depths of the labyrinth and saw the white bones scattered in the passage, everyone's hearts were covered with a lingering cloud.
"Darla, look here. Lina suddenly pointed to a wall and shouted excitedly.
When Dara looked at it, he saw that Lina's finger was not only marked with a red arrow, but also some other signs of different shapes and colors, which showed that there were many people walking by here, and they all thought of ways to make signs on the wall to avoid getting lost.
Turning the corner of the wall, Dara and the others were stunned, and the passage in front of them was the road they came.
After walking for a long time, they circled back again.
This was a great disappointment, but with Darla's encouragement, everyone picked themselves up again and continued to move forward.
However, when they walked here for the second time, even Dara felt discouraged, the path they chose was obviously not repeated, but for some reason, it seemed that every passage led to this place, and everyone finally understood why there were so many bones scattered in this passage, because many people were trapped in the maze when they walked here.
Will they all die here like the people before them?" )
