Roy miscalculated.

He didn't expect the dungeon's reputation to be so bad.

It is synonymous with crime and the grey industry, and if people in the city want to go to the dungeon to "pick up the wind", there is little other possibility than to do that.

"Anyway, you're mistaken." He sighed.

There was a budding maid waiting for him at home, and he was not hungry to this extent.

Fortunately, in the end, Elena believed him and walked out of the cubicle with him.

What if you don't believe? Once they offend the lord of Uptown, they have a way to fix her.

She doesn't have a choice.

"Squeak-"

At this moment, a strong man walked in by pushing the door.

He is at least two meters three or more tall, and he needs to bow his head and bend down even when he enters the door. He is very thick and stout, wearing dark scale armor and carrying a mace on his back.

"Dad, I'm on a mission, and it may take a few days to come back." The strong man looked at Green and said angrily.

"Please excuse me." Roy raised his eyes.

This strong man blocked the door, like a mountain, and just standing gave people a huge sense of oppression.

The strong man looked at Roy and Elena, and wondered, "Where are you going?" ”

This sentence was addressed to Elena.

"Ah...... Mr. Luo was a guest in Uptown and was not very familiar with the place, so I showed him the way. ”

Elena hurriedly replied, omitting the keyword dungeon.

The strong man's name is Bob, the son of Boss Green, and a mercenary, who treats Elena like his own sister.

She didn't want Bob to worry about it.

"People from Uptown?"

Bob snorted coldly and stretched out his index finger towards Roy, "No matter where you are, when you come here, you must abide by the rules here, you dare to touch Elena, I don't have any good juice for you, remember!" ”

Roy frowned.

"Bob, what are you doing!" Green hurriedly ran over, his face turned white with fright, "Are you crazy?" He is a reporter from the newspaper, so he quickly apologized to Mr. Luo! ”

The people who can live in Uptown are either rich or expensive, and they are definitely not something that ordinary people like them can afford.

"It's fine." Roy rubbed his face and suppressed the anger in his heart.

It was undoubtedly uncomfortable to be suddenly pointed to the head by a stranger, but he understood Bob's desire to protect Elena.

Amid Green's repeated apologies, the two walked out of the funeral home.

"Looks like he's nice to you." Roy said casually.

Elena glanced at him cautiously, and when she saw that she was not angry, she breathed a sigh of relief: "He is like my brother, I will explain to him when I go back, he misunderstood you, I am really sorry just now!" ”

Roy waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care: "Look at his dress, is he a mercenary?" But I heard from Boss Green that he didn't seem to like the mercenary profession. ”

"The boss thinks it's too dangerous to be a mercenary, and he wants Big Brother Bob to inherit the funeral home. But Big Brother Bob didn't listen and ran out of the wall every day. Elena replied.

Inheritance funeral home?

Roy imagined Bob carrying the coffin.

It doesn't seem to have any sense of disobedience, it's just that with such a strong figure, it's a pity not to be a warrior.

"Outside the Wall, ......"

He looked at the walls in the distance, "What will be on the outside of the walls?" ”

Elena tilted her head: "I heard that there are many fierce beasts out there, which are very dangerous, but there are also many opportunities. If you can find any treasure or a vein, then you will not have to worry about eating and drinking in this life. ”

"This is what Bob told you?"

"Well, he's been doing this for several years, and he's joined a big mercenary group that has its own territory just outside the walls, and sometimes he'll be stationed there and then won't come back for days."

As they spoke, the two of them had come to the entrance of the dungeon.

Elena hesitated for a moment: "Well, the dungeon is not as safe as the city, if you want to go to collect wind, maybe you can find another guide, or hire a bodyguard." ”

Roy asked strangely, "Aren't you my guide?" ”

"No, no, I just know the way."

She hurriedly shook her head and gestured with her hand: "Guide, you can understand it as...... If you are a character who is mixed up in the dungeon, when someone is looking for trouble, he can come forward to help you settle it. ”

"Or you can just hire bodyguards so they don't dare to trouble you at a glance."

"I see." Roy nodded, "Don't worry, I can take care of myself." ”

As an inheritor, he is not yet fifteen years old, he already has a physical fitness that surpasses that of an adult strong man, and can use spiritual power and inheritance skills, no matter how many ordinary people come, there is no threat to him.

The guards of the dungeon just glanced at their attire, didn't even ask for proof of residence, and happily let them go.

The entrance and exit to the dungeon have always been wide and strict, mainly to prevent dungeon residents who do not have urban hukou and temporary passes from sneaking out to make trouble.

Roy walked into the entrance, the staircase winding down as if there was no bottom in sight, and the light of the exit gradually faded away from them, leaving only the torches along the road flickering and dimming.

It's not a long journey, but the dim and oppressive atmosphere along the way can be particularly difficult.

Until they walked down the last step.

The dungeon has arrived.

Looking up, you can see the dome where you can't see the sky, and the "night sky" is dotted with sporadic lights, illuminating this dark world.

As far as the eye can see, there are plain and low earthen houses all around, even compared to the lower town, which is extremely backward.

Uncleaned garbage is discarded on the side of the road, and there is always a strange smell in the air, as if something is rotting and stinks.

There is no day or night in the dungeon, and along the way, he sees people lying on the side of the road and sleeping, and he also hears people shouting excitedly in the distance.

This is the underground of Sidnia, and no amount of screaming can reach the ground, only echoing over and over again in the empty and silent dungeon, which makes people feel a little creepy.

Roy was a little frustrated, and he unbuttoned the first few buttons of his shirt.

"Are you okay?"

He noticed that something was wrong with Elena's face.

"No, I'm ...... Remembered the past. "Elena was a little distracted.

She was born and raised here, and as long as she smells the dungeon, memories of the past will flood back.

She subconsciously looked to the west, where the largest red light district in the dungeon stood.

It is also the place where she once stayed.

Roy followed her gaze to the west, "That's where you used to be?" ”

Family?

Elena hung her head: "Yes......"

"Take me around, what is that place?"

"Tsukimibo, well, a place to eat, drink, and be merry."

"You've been there?"

"I'm an orphan, and I've been adopted by the owner of Tsukimibo since I was a child, and I don't have anywhere else to go except here."

"Are there a lot of orphans in the dungeon?"

"A lot, because people here can't afford to raise children."

Elena takes Roy around the dungeon and looks very familiar.

As they passed through a dimly lit alley, they were greeted by two young men who looked at Roy with malicious intent, and couldn't help but chuckle.

The young rich young master, accompanied by a weak chick, there is no more suitable target for robbery.

So, as they passed by, one of them suddenly slumped in his shoulder and slammed into Roy.

However, he was lonely, and Roy turned sideways like a prophet, and then took it with him, and threw the man to the ground.

"Damn it!" The other young man's face sank, and he showed a knife in his hand, and his attack was extremely skillful.

At first glance, you can tell that he is a repeat offender.

But he only felt a flash in front of him, his wrist had been firmly clamped, and he let go of his hand uncontrollably.

With Moon Shadow's "Body Control" and Judgment's "Eye of Insight" by his side, even Qin Liu couldn't take advantage of him in melee combat, let alone these little gangsters.

Roy snatched the knife away and knocked the young man down.

Then he raised his knife and slashed at the man's head with an expressionless face!

The tip of the blade, which shimmered with cold light, rapidly dilated in the pupils of the young man's eyes.

"Whew-" with a soft sound.

The knife went against the young man's face and into the stone path, the blade cutting a bloody streak on his cheek.

"Don't ask for trouble."

Roy didn't want to make a fuss, so he glanced at them coldly and got up to leave.

The next moment, the knife disintegrated like sand, crumbling into a puddle of shards in an instant.

Ordinary weapons cannot withstand the infusion of spiritual power.

It wasn't until Roy and the others were far away that a young man got up with a dirty face, and looked at the remains of the knife on the ground with fear.

"When did the dungeon come out with this character......

"You look at what he's wearing, he's a dungeon person, and he doesn't act in the same style."

Another young man touched the blood stains on his face, and his heart palpitated, "In these years, can even prostitutes be beaten like this?" ”

……

Around the corner, Roy glanced at Elena, "Is the dungeon always so chaotic?" ”

After the episode just now, the girl did not show much panic, as if she had long been used to it.

Elena nodded slowly and said in a low voice, "The dungeon is only guarded by the army on the cemetery side, and most of the residential areas are like this. ”

Cemetery......

Roy understood what she was referring to, and looked over.

Different from the backward and dilapidated residential areas, in the center of the dungeon, there is a bright and splendid cemetery, like the heart of this underground beast, exuding a sacred aura that is out of place with its surroundings.

That's Valhalla.

Legend has it that the gods give humans the power to guide them to the World Tree and the World Tree, and every warrior who dies in the process of the strategy will become a heroic spirit and be buried here.

The placement of the undead and the construction of Valhalla Valhalla were also the original intentions of the Sidena Dungeon.

The residential area on the side is the product of hastily expanded due to population problems, so compared with the glorious and majestic cemetery, it looks extremely gray and dilapidated.

In dungeons, the living don't even live well before the dead.

And most people won't be able to live in Valhalla even if they die. Only bearers and those who have contributed to Sidenia and are worthy of remembrance are eligible to be buried there.

The periphery of Valhalla is the cemetery for ordinary people.

But even so, it still takes a lot of money to get your place there.

For the poor dungeon dwellers, even if they died, they would be burned to ashes and scattered in some dark corner of the dungeon.

If the conditions are slightly better, there will be friends who will help put the ashes in a box and take them home, so that they can still leave a memory.

They spend their entire lives and may not see the sun on the surface.

……

Roy followed Elena's guidance through the alleyways of the dungeon.

Along the way, he saw a lot of malicious eyes, and there were many scantily clad girls who threw flattering glances at him.

But I haven't seen a single patrolman.

The dungeon is indeed not peaceful.

"Brother, big brother......"

A few childish calls slowed him down.

If it was the sweet and greasy business voice of an ordinary big sister, of course he would not stop, but what caught his eye was an extremely dilapidated house, and a little girl in gray shabby clothes stood in it.

His conscience told him that the child might need help, and it made him stop unconsciously.

She looked to be in her early teens, and her shabby clothes were full of all kinds of sewing and patching, and she was half shrunk in the doorway, and a small head appeared to look at him expectantly.

"My mom and I haven't eaten in days."

The little girl looked at Roy pitifully, "Big brother, can you give us a little money, and you can eat it." Mom and I will repay you! ”

Roy reached for his wallet with some hesitation.

It's not about asking for a reward, it's just about giving yourself peace of mind.

Otherwise, he always feels that he can't get over it when he refuses to be such an embarrassed girl, and he is not short of money now.

Elena quietly tugged at the corner of his clothes next to her, "Give her this." ”

She handed over a copper sol.

Roy suddenly realized that the money on his body was at least silver sol, and such a large amount was not at all what the little girl in the dungeon should have.

The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty.

He took the copper coin and flicked his fingers slightly.

The little girl subconsciously spread out her palm, and the copper coin crossed a precise parabola and landed firmly in her hand.

"Thank you, brother, thank you, brother!"

The little girl hurriedly bent down to thank him, and when he looked up, Roy and the others were already far away.

"What can you buy in a dungeon for a copper coin?"

Roy asked curiously.

In Shangcheng, a copper coin can only buy a bowl of gruel, the kind that can be used as water to drink.

"You can buy a big loaf of bread."

Elena thought for a moment and said, "Two people, if you save some food, it should be no problem to last for three days." ”

"I remember if there was relief food in the dungeon?"

"Ah...... That, the quota is limited, and people who have no power, as well as those women and children, basically can't grab it. ”

"Is the Tsukimibo where you are belonging to a very powerful force in the dungeon?"

“…… Well. A flash of fear flashed in Elena's eyes.

After going around the alley for a while, the front suddenly opened up.

The buildings here have been changed from low and dilapidated before, and they have obviously been carefully renovated, and there are more people gathered here than before.

"This is it." She pursed her lips.

Roy tilted his head.

This is probably the most imposing tavern in the whole dungeon, and at first glance, the luxury and decoration style of the décor almost made him think he was back in the upper town.

The little guy at the door was also neatly dressed and dressed like a dog, he noticed Roy who stopped, and after judging that he had spending power by observing his clothes and temperament, he hurriedly greeted him.

"Sir, you're looking very good, it's the first time you've visited a dungeon?"

"Huh?" Roy looked at him noncommittally.

"Hey, your eyesight is so good, you fell in love with this place at a glance! Our Yuejianfang is the best place in the whole dungeon, whether it is eating, drinking or playing, only the guests can't think of it, and there is nothing we can't satisfy! Why don't you come in and sit down? ”

"Okay."

Roy nodded nonchalantly and headed towards the tavern.

Elena followed him, her head bowed, trying to hide her face.

But there was only one road at the door, and of course the little guy noticed the girl who was following Roy.

He looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise: "Daisy? How are you here! ”

Roy turned around and said lightly, "This is my person." ”

The little servant's eyes flickered, and he sent the two into the tavern's box, and then whispered to the man in black in the tavern.

Roy and Elena took their seats, and immediately they were greeted by several scantily clad girls of the same age as Elena.

They sat up to Roy's left and right, laughing and talking to him, their hot snorts spraying on his earlobes and neck, intentionally or unintentionally, and the smell of cheap perfume made him want to sneeze.

Elena sat directly across from him, the expression on her face hidden in shadow.

Roy pushed away the woman next to him and said slowly, "Actually, you know why I'm looking for you, right?" ”

Elena's body trembled slightly.

She looked at the barmaid beside Roy, as if she saw her former self.

She remembers being beaten by a bustard for not being able to please her guests.

She remembered staring at the dome of the dungeon countless times, wondering when she would be able to go out and bask in the sun.

She remembered being thrown up and then pulled up in a daze, ready for the next drinking game.

Because of this, she cherishes her current life very much.

I got a formal job in the city.

Have a healthy work and rest at sunrise and sunset.

Others cared about her as if she were family.

Things that she had never dreamed of were coming true, but she was afraid that she would be like a Cinderella, and that she would be beaten back to her original form as soon as midnight came.

When she returned to Tsukimibo, she felt like she was back in the past, and her life in the city seemed to be a short-lived dream.

"Don't be nervous."

Roy said slowly, "You just need to answer my questions, and I'll take care of sending you back well." ”

She hung her head and shrunk her shoulders and whispered, "Whatever you want to ask, I will definitely answer you." ”

Roy leaned forward and stared at her deadly: "I came here for the slave trade that happened half a month ago, and you are one of the slaves who were trafficked to Uptown. ”

"I thought you were also a victim of this case, but after coming to the dungeon, I suddenly understood one thing, in fact, you also want to leave this hellish place, right?"

"Elena, did you become a slave of your own volition?"
