Lilith the little owl flew to the Valley of the Sages with Roger and Antonio, where they landed in front of the statue of the Mother of the Winged Men and shouted the names of Isabella and her sisters after resuming their form, but they were greeted only by a long stretch of sand. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Rog and Antonio hurried to the clifftop cave where the Wingmen were hiding, but it was empty, and the two hurried to the graveyard valley in disbelief, and they didn't see a single living creature along the way, neither the Winged Man nor the Platinum Guardian were heard from.

"It's a bit of a bad thing," Rogge said to Antonio as he walked, "I can't smell anything they left behind, and neither can Lilith, it's not normal." ”

"Catherine and Tully are gone, too," Antonio replied, frowning, worried, "what did that bastard Hank do?"

The two of them hurried to the cemetery valley, and saw that there was silence in the valley, they cautiously walked into the valley, only to see that the valley was already full of large and small dirt pits, and when Rog and Antonio stepped forward to look, they found that the bones of the winged people buried in the pit had been dug up.

"Damn!" Rogge stomped his foot angrily and said angrily, "That bastard dug their graves, this scum whose conscience was eaten by dogs!"

Antonio crouched down and picked up a small piece of bone fragment that had been dug up by a shovel from the edge of the grave, stared at it for a moment and held it in the palm of his hand, then looked up and said to Rogge with grief: "I really didn't expect that the people of the Mage Tower would be so mad!"

"There are so many things you didn't expect!"

With a sudden sound, a magical shockwave suddenly pushed Rog and Antonio against the wall, and the two of them slammed into the wall unexpectedly, and when they landed, they got up from the ground and saw a cage glowing with blue magic light sealing them around them.

"Hank!" Rog angrily rushed to the rim of the cage, glaring at Hank, the head of the Wizards' Guild who was standing not far away, and Antonio followed him forward, seeing the magicians behind Hank emerge from a huge magic circle.

Some of them carried bulging packages on their backs, which from the raised shape of the surface showed to be the bones of the dead that had been exhumed from the grave, while others had been chained together by other magicians and knelt on the ground like slaves.

"Captain Antonio," Hank said contemptuously as he strode over to the cage and stared at the angry two men on the railing, "Are you so stupid to destroy the Angel Hunter organization I worked so hard to build, just to help these birdmen who have nothing to do with you?"

"Hank," Antonio shouted at Hank, "You let them go immediately, otherwise I won't let you go, you're committing a crime, and I swear I'll send you to the guillotine!"

"Hmph, save it, Captain Antonio," Hank smiled disdainfully, pacing slowly in front of the cage and said, "Don't play tricks in front of me, the Mage Tower is not subject to the Imperial Code, even if I commit murder, the Empire has no right to judge me!"

"What's more, there is no law in the Imperial Code to protect these birdmen, and killing them is like stepping on an ant to death, without any fault!"

"You ......" Antonio trembled with anger, but there was nothing he could do with Hank, Rogge, who was standing beside him, stared at Hank with hateful eyes, and heard him laugh: "Lone wolf, I heard that you are very nosy, but this time you are in charge of things that you shouldn't be in charge of, I'm afraid it's you who really want to go to the guillotine." ”

"It's not like I haven't been to the guillotine," Rogge stared coldly into Hank's sinister eyes, and sneered: "What's more, even if I am really stabbed in two, I may not be able to go to you to ask for this blood debt!"

"That's right," Hank smiled mockingly, turned back and beckoned to the magicians behind him, "Just like my dead angel hunters, the legendary White Rose who killed people in the invisible will definitely have a time to pay off his debts." ”

I saw two magicians carrying Catherine and Tali to the cage, throwing the unconscious two at Rogge and Antonio, and their bodies fell through the cage and into the arms of Rogge and Antonio.

"What happened to them?" Antonio looked down at the unconscious Tully and looked up at Hank.

"Don't worry, they're just fainting," Hank glanced at the two girls lightly, and smirked, "I have to say, if it weren't for them, I would have had a hard time catching these birdmen, and although it took me a lot of trouble to get into their heads, I succeeded in the end." ”

"By the way, and this elf!" Hank threw Monica, the little flower spirit who had shrunk into a small bud, into the cage as well, and then shook the golden oil lamp that he had snatched from Tali at the two of them and said, "Now that you are reunited, I won't give this back to you, it was originally the stuff of the Mage Tower, and it's time to return it to its original owner." ”

He turned back to the mages behind him and said, "Get out of here!" The mages dragged the winged women from the ground and whipped their naked bodies with their staffs, driving them all into a teleportation array that glowed blue.

"When I get rid of these prey, I'll come and let you out, but maybe it's not me, it's His Majesty's army, because I'll tell him that there's a group of murderers who are bewitched by banshees, and I'm sure the wise Holy Emperor will give you a well-deserved end. ”

After saying these words, Hank turned and strode towards the teleportation array, all the magicians surrounded the winged people in the center of the teleportation array, Hank stood on the edge of the teleportation array and waved his hand to Rog and Antonio, and with a spell everything in the teleportation array disappeared without a trace.

Rog and Antonio bowed their heads and gently shook the girl in their arms, and after a few moments, Catherine and Tali slowly opened their eyes, and their first thought was to tell them about Hank's true face, but Rog stopped them and told them that Hank had taken all the people and bones with him.

"What can I do?" Catherine asked, "Isabella, they can't leave the valley for a long time, they will all die if they don't come back within twelve hours, we have to find a way to save them!"

Rogge sighed silently, looked up at the magic cage that was shining around him, and suddenly saw the little furball jump off his shoulder, jumped to the cage and looked at the iron railing that was much wider than his body, and turned back to Rogge and said, "I have a way, I can shrink everyone and run out!"

Rogge gestured approvingly for her to act immediately, and the little furball cleared his throat and recited the incantation loudly, but the people present did not change, and the little furball looked at them blankly, and recited it again, still to no avail.

"What's going on, my magic doesn't work!" cried out the little furball in frustration.

"This cage has the effect of removing magic," Tali struggled to sit up from Antonio's arms, lifted her long fishtail and said, "Don't you see? My transformation magic has failed, I don't feel any magic power in my body now, we are trapped." ”

"Why hasn't Mr. Rogge transformed?" asked Catherine, looking at Rogge in surprise.

"Because my transformation is not magic," Rogge said, shaking his head solemnly, "That's just instinct." ”

"I still have a way!" Little Furball shouted unwillingly, turned and jumped out of the cage, and easily passed between the two railings of the iron cage, but before she could land, an electric current suddenly shot out from the railing, pulling her back from the outside of the cage.

"Ouch!" the little furball fell to the ground in the cage, bounced on the ground a few times and rolled a few times on Catherine's shoes, Catherine hurriedly reached out to hold her up, saw Lilith dizzy with two little paws, and muttered: "It hurts, I am dizzy, I am going to vomit lunch!"

"If this continues, not only the winged people, but also ourselves and the lamp gods will suffer. ”

Antonio let Tali, who couldn't stand up, lean on his chest, looked back at Rogge and said, "Remember what the Lamp God said? They originally escaped from the Mage Tower, and now that Hank has obtained the magic lamp, it is equivalent to finding the whereabouts of the lamp gods, and he will definitely not let them go." ”

Rog lowered his head and pondered for a moment, helped Catherine to her feet, and motioned for her, Antonio, and Tali to step back, Antonio held Tali, and Catherine held Monica, who had just woken up, and the little furball, which had not yet recovered from her vertigo, and retreated to the end of the cage to look at him.

"I have one last trick," Rogge lit his pipe and put it in the corner of his mouth, crouched down on the edge of the cage, raised his two hands and said, "Whether it will be or not, it depends on the will of God." ”

......

In White Forest City, the Wizards' Guild was busy, and Hank, who had returned from the Valley of the Sages, ordered the magicians to put all the captured Wingman women in their cells, and sent the bones of the Wingmen to the gloomy underground laboratory, where they were to be cleaned up and stored and used.

Later, Hank personally led people to extract some of the winged women, including Isabella, a total of ten people, and ordered the magicians to escort them to the basement of the Wizards' Guild, where the ten people were shackled to the wall, and the four pairs of wings behind them were pierced by steel nails and nailed to the wall.

Listening to the screams of the winged woman in his ears, and seeing the white wings pierced by steel nails stained red with blood, Hank's face was not moved in the slightest, he glanced at the magician beside him, the magician clapped his hands gently, and ten burly and fierce-looking men walked in from outside with sharp blades in their hands.

"Drain their blood and collect it, remove all the bones and pile them up according to people, I will count them myself, if one is missing, you know the consequences!" Hank's icy gaze swept over the ten butchers, and the ten agreed in unison, walking towards the ten winged girls who were fixed to the wall.

"Wait a minute!" Isabella shouted to the butcher who stepped forward and shouted to Hank, "Why, why do you have to kill us all?

"Spare you?" Hank stepped forward and pushed the butcher away as he stared at her, "Do you know how much money and effort I spent to build that team to hunt you? ”

He leaned his face close to Isabella, stared into her golden eyes, gritted his teeth, and said, "For this reason, I embezzled a large amount of funds from the Wizards' Guild, and took the risk of being traced by the Mage Tower, but I only earned back a pitiful amount of profit, and I couldn't fill the existing holes at all, is this enough?"

"No," Hank shook his head with a sneer, "When I get all of your bones, I will monopolize the market for angelic relics, and then they will have to give as much as I want, and I will use this money to open up my own kingdom, and you are only worthy of being my stepping stone!"

With that, Hank turned to the butchers and threw a phrase, "Do it!" and walked away.
