Chapter 249: Prisoner

For Duanmu Huai and the others, capturing this beast tribe's lair was just a trivial matter, after eliminating the beast tribe soldiers here, they continued to move forwardβ€”β€”β€” after all, from this route, as long as they continued to follow the road in front of them, they should be able to reach the beast tribe's lair.

The orcs obviously don't like people to get too close to their lair, and they also attacked Duanmuhuai and the others in groups, in addition to countless orc soldiers, these orcs even used the underground creatures they tamed, however, even these extremely hard, fierce-looking underground creatures are not the opponents of Duanmuhuai and others, they almost killed all the way forward like chopping melons and vegetables, and almost everything that stood in front of them along the way was killed by them.

These fierce orcs are no different from pigs to be slaughtered in front of Duanmu Huai, and there is no threat at all.

"You guys......... Who the hell is it? ”

At this time, Kate's eyes looking at Duanmu Huai were already full of doubts and uneasiness, it can be said that now these people have become creatures that Kate can't understand, she doesn't understand who these people are at all, and where they come from.

"I said, you don't need to know that."

Duanmu Huai reluctantly swung out his hammer head, smashed a spider-like underground monster to the ground, and then spoke.

"We're just doing what we're supposed to do, and you either just keep your mouth shut or get out of here. As for other things, you don't need to know, and you shouldn't know, you know what I mean? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€

Hearing Duanmu Huai's answer, Kate opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say, and for a while they fell into an awkward silence, fortunately, at this time, An live's voice sounded, breaking the somewhat awkward silence.

"Mr. Knight, Miss Filin said she sensed a lot of human breath not far ahead."

"Oh? Is it? ”

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai raised his eyebrows.

"Let's take a look."

Soon, the group continued on their way through the cavern to a relatively empty cavern, which looked more like a prison, with huge iron cages everywhere and coffins that looked like they were made of steel.

"Turn these things on."

Duanmuhuai said while walking to a steel coffin, and then he stretched out his hand and pulled the coffin apart directly, and then, a ragged man fell out of it, he looked at Duanmuhuai in horror, let out a scream of fearβ€”β€”β€” and then rolled his eyes and passed out.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€

Seeing this scene, Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes, and then looked at the others.

"Let's do it."

Soon the girls stepped forward to open the coffins, and they were surprised to find that they were full of people, men and women, old and young, and even some burly soldiers. Not only that, but Kate also saw her acquaintances in it.

"Uncle Barek? You've been caught here? ”

"Ah, it's you."

Hearing someone call his name, a middle-aged man was stunned for a moment and turned his head to look at Kate. He was the leader of the nomad team that hired Kate to guard before, when the nomad team was defeated by the orcs, Kate originally thought he was dead, but he didn't expect to be caught here.

If you look closely, most of the people who were caught here were people from the nomad team, but Kate was not very familiar with them, and of course, there were a few soldiers left.

After counting the number of people, there were more than a hundred people rescued this time, but according to Barek, more of them were originally captured, but now they have been taken away by those orcs, and only they are lucky enough to stay here.

"I heard that those orcs seem to want to take the captives away and reform......... I can't imagine what they're going to do to .........."

Recalling the scene at that time, Barek was also scared for a while, and then he glanced at Duanmu Huai, who was standing not far away, and asked Kate in a low voice.

"Kate, who are they?"

"I don't know, but they're here to destroy the orcs."

"Exterminate the orcs? Come here? Just these few people?? ”

"Of course not, they brought thousands of people, all of them are quite strong warriors.........

Before Kate could finish explaining to Barek, she saw Barek's face turn pale, and Kate, who had a premonition in her heart, turned her head and saw Duanmu Huai walking towards her.

"Is there anything wrong with you?"

Even if Kate is a big woman, she will unconsciously get nervous in front of Duanmu Huai, and the other party seems to be wrapped around a kind of coercion that makes her feel extremely frightened, in fact, Kate has been trying to cheer up, so she didn't kneel directly in front of this terrible black warrior.

However, Duanmu Huai just glanced at Kate and said in a surging voice.

"I've told the rear to send another team of people to escort them up, and until then, these guys will be in your hands."

"Huh? Am I the only one? ”

"Lorena and they will stay here to heal the wounded soldiers........."

However, before Duanmu Huai's words were finished, suddenly, a figure stumbled out of the crowd and pounced in front of Duanmu Huai.

"Child, my child, please save my child.........!

”

It was a woman, and at the moment she was weeping bitterly, crying and crying to Duanmu Huai for help. Duanmu Huai looked at her and frowned.

"Has her child been captured by the Orcs as well?"

"This ..............."

Kate didn't quite know either, so she turned her questioning gaze to Barek, who shivered and hurriedly shook her head desperately.

"No, no, no, it's not like that! Don't worry about this gentleman, she's a madman.........! ”

"Crazy?"

"Yes, it seems that her child was killed by the orcs a long time ago, and then she went crazy and looked for her own child everywhere......... She also came to our tribe on her own........."

"Let Lorena show her."

Duanmu Huai nodded and spoke to Kate, who quickly understood, and then she hurried to the woman's side and helped her up softly. comforted her a few words, and with Kate's safety, the woman seemed to gradually calm down, and then was taken aside by Kate.

After a short stay, Duanmu Huai continued to lead the others forward, leaving only Lorena's angel team hereβ€”β€”β€” they were originally responsible for logistics preparations, and it was also their duty to deal with such emergencies.

The wanderers also found weapons from the corpses of the orcs around them and armed themselves, and then they gathered together, anxiously waiting for reinforcements to arrive.

Kate brought the woman to Lorena and whispered about her.

"That's right..............."

After listening to Kate's story, Lorena said softly with a little sadness.

"I can understand her grief at the loss of her child, maybe she is still immersed in a dream and does not want to wake up, at least then she can keep lying to herself and tell herself that her child is not dead..............."

"Uh......... Miss Lorena, do you have a solution? ”

Frankly, Kate is skeptical of Lorena, on the one hand, the mental illness itself is difficult to treat, and even professional doctors may not be able to cure it. On the other hand, although in Kate's eyes, this priest lady is indeed dressed as a priest and looks like a priest, she will never forget the scene when the other party slapped the rampaging female orc in the face with the holy scripture............... After all, it's only been a long time, hasn't it?

Kate was a little worried about whether Lorena would just lift the holy book she was holding in her hand and give the woman a "physical therapy......... Human heads aren't as hard as orcs! If this is taken by Lorena, it is estimated that this woman will directly bloom on the spot......... Well, if that's the case, maybe she'll be able to meet her beloved daughter?

Miss Lorena can't really do that!

Luckily, Lorena didn't go straight to "physical therapy" as Kate thought, instead, she just reached out, took the woman's thin hands, stared at her, and spoke softly.

"Rest assured, the light of the gods may shine on every good person."

As she spoke, Lorena looked at the Angel of Good News standing behind her.

"Please."

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€

The Good News Angel is a cute girl with long flaxen hair, braids, and a thin dress. Hearing Lorena's request, she nodded, and then Kate saw that the girl had somehow taken out a harp and held it in her arms, and then she plucked the strings gently, and then ......... The girl began to sing.

"I beseech the gods to listen, I am not trying to steal your power and life, but that all the lives that exist in the world are special......... Since I have not been chosen by fate, I beg the gods to give me hope again......... Even though I know that human beings are not good things, I want to bring hope to those who ask for forgiveness..............."

The girl's voice was pleasant and crisp, as if it penetrated the soul. Although she was singing in a language that Kate didn't understand at all, for some reason, just hearing this song made Kate feel an inexplicable shock.

Let's try it soon, everyone. 】

Even the restless, nervous and panicked wanderers gradually quieted down at this moment, holding weapons in their arms, staring at the singing girl, as if they had forgotten all the troubles of this world for a while, and were just immersed in an incomparably calm and melodious atmosphere.

At this moment, they seemed to have found their ......... The calm that has not been seen in a long time.
