Someone?

Yasen saw Ji Chen's slightly changing expression, and hurriedly asked.

"What's wrong?"

"There seem to be people inside."

Hearing this, Yasen's face also sank, and he immediately asked the elves and the soldiers of the principality to stop carrying and put all of them on alert.

"Your Excellency, I don't know who it is, so let's go into reconnaissance first."

Ji Chen nodded, he didn't refuse, although he was quite confident in his strength, but it was not conducive to playing in such a closed and narrow place, and charging into battle was not what he, a master, should do.

A mixed squad of elven warriors and duchy soldiers began to enter, and on the map, the green dot representing them was slowly entering the depths along the narrow passage, stopping at a distance of tens of meters from the red dot, and after a few moments, they split into two teams and bypassed, patrolling the interior before returning.

In the darkness, they were gradually seen, but they were like a blizzard, trembling all over, spitting white breath, and even their eyebrows were covered with a bit of white frost.

"My lord, it's very cold inside, and you don't see any enemies, but there's a sealed cage in the middle."

Cage?

Ji Chen frowned slightly.

There's a cage in the middle of the fraudster's base?

Is it used to imprison someone?

It looks like the red dot on the map is in a cage.

Yasen was also quite surprised, and subconsciously looked at Ji Chen, "Your Excellency, what should we do now?" ”

"Go in and find out."

Since there are no enemies inside, only an unknown creature in a cage, you can safely go in and check it out.

The group entered the passage behind the gate, holding torches and slowly going deeper.

After going hundreds of meters deeper, the eyes suddenly opened up, and a violent cold air rushed to the face, making everyone shiver.

Strands of hoarfrost quickly condense on the eyebrows and hair.

As far as the eye can see, in this underground space, which is less than the size of a football field, there is a completely sealed metal cage in the middle of the depression.

With the cage as the center, layers of dark blue ice, ice spikes, and icicles stretched out in all directions, and even a thin layer of ice clinged to the rock wall.

The deep blue ice glows with a surging light, and the torch illuminates a wonderful scene reflecting the faint blue light.

This scene surprised everyone.

When you come back to your senses, you are afraid.

Anyone already knows that this terrible chill and ice emanate from the cage.

For a moment, no one dared to make a move.

Why would a fraudster keep such an unidentified creature here? Friend or foe?

The doubts in my heart continue to surface, but at the same time, the curiosity is also getting stronger.

Soon, the elves couldn't bear the cold anymore and left the place.

Only Yasen, who is superb in martial arts and full of blood, and Ji Chen, who has the power of the tide, can stand here.

But Rao is like this, the cold is still like a knife scraping bones, constantly invading the body.

Looking at this metal cage wrapped in ice, Ji Chen hesitated.

To be able to be imprisoned in such a cage, and to be able to overflow such a terrifying cold and ice, it must not be an ordinary creature. @

If you open it now, no one knows what monsters will be released.

Yasin apparently thought of this as well, and said, "I'd suggest shelving this for now, and then start it after interrogating the Silver Mask fraudster." ”

Ji Chen bowed slightly.

Just as they were about to get out of here.

The elven officer who delivered Ji Chen's meal last night hurriedly ran in, looking anxious.

"Lord Yasen, there's a dwarf out there, and he's making a fuss in the camp!"

"Dwarves?" Yasin was stunned, and a little anger welled up on his face, "The dwarves came to the door to make trouble, won't you fight back!?" ”

"We've done that, but that dwarf is too strong, we're no match for him, and dozens of brothers have already been defeated."

One hit dozens?.

Ji Chen was a little surprised, he had seen the combat power of those elves, but if a dwarf could defeat so much, his strength would definitely be good.

However, it is indeed a rare thing that a dwarf appears on the territory of the Maple Grove Principality in the back garden of the elves and takes the initiative to come to the door.

Hearing this, Yasen's face changed slightly, and he turned to Ji Chen and said.

"Your Excellency, I need to go back to the camp immediately to check on the situation, so I can't accompany you here."

Ji Chen nodded.

When Yasin returned to the camp, he saw a short but sturdy dwarf in the distance, throwing an elven warrior out like a ball, swearing and swearing.

"After so long, do you elves still only have such strength? It's too weak, it's too weak! There is nothing to praise other than to grow a little taller. ”

"I haven't heard anyone say anything about your pointy ears along the way, but why didn't I feel it? I can beat you a hundred with me! ”

The dwarf's words were undoubtedly dancing on the minefield of the elves, and the elven warriors around him jumped like thunder, and their brains burst out with green tendons, but for this dwarf, his eyes were full of jealousy.

They boasted that they were elite warriors even among the many elven armies, but no elves could make a move in the hands of this scruffy-looking dwarf, and they flew upside down after rushing forward without seeing the dwarf's movements.

From the beginning to now, they have been beaten hundreds of elves, but they have not seen it

But the dwarves didn't use the hammer next to him, or they would have picked up their bows and swords

"You elves can't do it, forget it, you can go together, lest I say I won't give you a chance."

The dwarves were still talking trash talk.

Hearing this, the elves all had red eyes, and they were about to abandon Wude, and they really planned to go up together, and give this dwarf a little color.

"Stop!

！ ”

A burst of rage brought them to a halt, and they all straightened up and saluted.

"Yasen-sama, you're back!"

Yasin walked over with a look of anger and glared at them fiercely, this group of dry food things, so many elves couldn't even beat a dwarf, it was really a shame for him.

Turning his gaze to the sloppy dwarf, he said with an unkind expression, "I wonder what is the matter with this dwarf Your Excellency coming to us?" ”

"If you can't give me an explanation, you will have to pay for your reckless behavior."

The words are full of threats.

What if this dwarf is good?

Can you stop a strong bow and a hard crossbow? Can you stop the spell bombardment? Can it stop the sword formation of thousands of elven warriors?

Behind them, there is a powerful elven empire, dealing with the dwarves who have long lost their last homes and are surviving, and there are countless races willing to act as pioneers at the first order. @

Hearing these words, the scruffy dwarf smiled disdainfully, ignoring the threat in his words.

This dwarf was none other than Tomodo, who had returned from the Western Continent, and after learning that the fraudster was the culprit behind the destruction of the Black Iron Castle, he rushed to the Northern Continent day and night, wanting to warn Ji Chen to be careful of this group of madmen.

When he was in the Crescent Islands before, he had heard that the goods of the crown of the ocean were mainly transported to Fenglin Port, so he guessed that Ji Chen would most likely come to the Northern Continent to Fenglin Port.

So I inquired about the news along the way, and finally found this place according to various clues.

However, the elves were very arrogant, and seeing that he was a dwarf, they did not even want to say a word, and their attitude was bad, and they tried to drive him away in a rude manner.

So he couldn't help but take a shot and teach him a lesson.

But it seems that in the end, it will be up to the elves to find that kid, so I won't worry too much about them this time.

In fact, because the Principality of Maple Grove and the elves took the initiative to block the relevant information, the outside world did not know that it was Ji Chen who provided the location of the meeting place and secret base in the city of the fraudster, but only that it was the elves who destroyed the base of an evil organization.

In the Principality of Maple Grove, this can be called the back garden of the elves.

Tomodo, who is a dwarf, obviously has no way to get more information.

I don't know the specific relationship between Ji Chen and the elves, I only know that it seems to have a business relationship with the elves.

He didn't say anything more provocative, and said directly and simply: "Do you know a Glory Lord named Ji Chen?" ”

Your Excellency Ji Chen?

Yasen's heart sank.

What is this dwarf looking for His Excellency Ji Chen?

According to the information they got, His Excellency Ji Chen should have come to the Northern Continent for the first time this time, and he has been active in the Maple Forest Principality throughout the whole process, so it should be unlikely that he will come into contact with the dwarves, and there is a high probability that he will not have any friendship with the dwarves.

Moreover, how could such a character have anything to do with a declining race like the dwarves?

Subconsciously, Yasin wanted to say something negative.

But it was only a momentary pause in his eyes that a trace of thought was noticed by the monkey-like Tomodo, "Have you met him?" ”

"I don't know what Ji Chen's Glory Lord is called, Your Excellency, I'm afraid you've found the wrong place."

Yasen decisively denied that whether it was for the safety of His Excellency Ji Chen, or the friendship between the elves and His Excellency Ji Chen, he could not admit this matter.

Especially if it was a dwarf who asked, it couldn't be said.

Seeing this, Tomodo became even more suspicious, and looking at Yasen's desperate concealment, his thoughts couldn't help but diverge.

I heard that the kid's crown of the sea seems to have some business dealings with the elves.

He is very familiar with the character of the elves, arrogant, greedy, and has a pathological pursuit of any rare treasure, maybe the elves here in Maple Grove City have their eyes on the treasures brought by that kid and secretly attack him.

Otherwise, how could this elf look so strange when he said the word Ji Chen?

The senses that were already bad for the elves, coupled with what he saw now, Tomodo instantly thought of the worst situation.

His eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a hint of danger.

"You'd better tell me where that kid is? Otherwise, I wouldn't mind giving you a taste of the wrath of the dwarves. ”

Yasen's eyes widened, a little hard to believe what he was hearing. @·error-free start~~

Since becoming the commander of the Fifth Fleet, I don't know how long someone has dared to say such things to him, just by virtue of you, a dwarf who doesn't know where he came from!?

Sure enough, this dwarf harbored malicious intent towards His Excellency Ji Chen!

Elves must not allow their enemies to hurt their friends!

Suddenly.

A strong smell of gunpowder permeated.

Yasen's muscles were tense all over his body, his heart pumped out a large amount of blood, carrying a majestic force flowing through his limbs, and an extremely sharp edge penetrated through his body, scraping his skin for a burst of pain.

Tomodo narrowed his eyes, a gleam flashing in his cloudy eyes, and his hand slowly rested on the warhammer, and a heavy aura like a mountain swelled up, as if giving people infinite pressure

Dwarves don't point their weapons at others, but when they do, they're already enemies.

Just when the two sides were about to fight.

A team of elves suddenly ran in from outside the camp, and shouted with a panicked expression.

"Lord Yasen, something seems to have happened to His Excellency Ji Chen in the depths of the cave, and the ice has spread out!

”

Hearing this, Yasen's aura suddenly stagnated, and when he was about to ask, he saw a black shadow rushing out from his side.

It's the dwarf!

Although the dwarf had short legs, he was extremely fast running, and in a few breaths he ran hundreds of meters, and soon disappeared outside the camp.

Yasin was stunned, his expression changed drastically, and he immediately chased after him.

Behind him, a large group of elven warriors also chased after him quickly, but they saw the whole process just now, and the dwarf looked very ill-intentioned, maybe it would be unfavorable to His Excellency Ji Chen.

His Excellency Ji Chen is their savior, even if they can't beat that dwarf, even if they use their lives to stop him!

！

More than ten minutes ago.

Ji Chen, who had no idea what was happening outside, looked at the cage in the middle in disbelief.

Just as he was about to leave, a sudden sound came from the cage.

Sound.

"Help me..."

The voice was hoarse, tired, painful, and weak, as if it would die in the next second.

But at the same time, there is an incomparably powerful aura in the faint voice, as if it is like an abyss, as if it is like a star, and it feels like strength... At least stronger than he is now.

Ji Chen's expression changed slightly, mana was surging around him, and a long sword inlaid with golden gems also appeared in his hand-War Holy Sword, as soon as something was wrong, he would immediately use the attached skills on it to draw a prison to protect himself.

At the same time, the spiritual power also communicates with the Void Ring at any time, teleporting at any time to prevent any accidents.

Now he is very cautious!

After completing this, he was a little relieved, and asked with a fixed mind.

"Who are you? Why are you being locked up here by fraudsters? ”

After a moment, the voice sounded again.

"My name is Verena Rana, and I am a devotee of the goddess of war, and I am hated by the fraudsters, who have taken advantage of my weakness to capture me with a plot and keep me locked up here."

Verena Lana?

A devotee of the goddess of war?

Ji Chen nodded knowingly and continued to ask in a deep voice.

"And how long have you been held here?"

Trapped in a cage and still not seeing her true face, Verena said.

"I don't know, it's probably hundreds of years."

"They have smelted this oppressive cage with the Furnace of the Sun, bound me with chains of burning, and inflicted the pain of burning my soul at all times, intent on destroying my will and faith. ”

The soul has been burned for hundreds of years?

Good fellow, the fraudster is really ruthless.
