Chapter Ninety-Four: Rescue
"Actually, I was indeed knocked unconscious at the time, but your magic ball didn't kill me directly, when you found me, my consciousness had actually begun to slowly recover, but my body was not able to be controlled according to consciousness at that time, and then after you were surrounded by our fellow chamber of commerce, a guy poured a poison directly into my mouth, fortunately I kept holding back and didn't swallow it, otherwise I would have died." The goblin whispered back to Lambert.
"I'm sorry... I didn't mean to hit you..."Lambert said with his hands folded and an apologetic look, "By the way, what's your name?" ”
"My name is Devon, you don't have to take it too seriously, you and I are essentially victims in this matter, the real perpetrator is Paul's guy, and I have always treated him as my big brother." At the mention of Paul, Devon's expression visibly became angry.
"Why did he kill you? Is there any contradiction between you? Lambert asked quietly.
"Paul, that guy in order to make money, business has always been unscrupulous, he will use all kinds of means to maximize his interests, whether it is robbing the business of other chambers of commerce or violently coercing customers to buy, he has done this very well, I have always felt that as a businessman should at least have some bottom line, so I have been suggesting to him not to continue like this, instead of listening, he thinks that I am a traitor sent by other chambers of commerce, so he designed to kill me, just when they are eyeing the demonic sword in your hand, So it's got to this point. Devon spread his hands and said helplessly.
Lambert nodded, and suddenly realized, "I see. So you said you were here to save me, how can we escape from this situation? ”
"Don't worry about this, when I came, the guys guarding you outside the door were basically asleep, and I knocked them all out when I came, and I also have the key in my hand, I can release you now, after all, I am the vice president of this chamber of commerce, and I will still do this kind of thing with a spare key to the cell in my hand." Devon said with a smile.
"What about my two friends? Are they safe? Do you know about them? Lambert asked, somewhat anxiously.
"Don't worry, although that guy Paul doesn't have any bottom line, he will do what he promised you, since he gave you time, then he naturally won't mess around before tomorrow morning, otherwise you won't do him any good if you die and break the net, right?" Devin replied quietly.
"Well, you're right, then now we can go and get them out." Lambert continued.
"It's easy to say, but it's hard to do, because Paul didn't expect that I wasn't actually dead, and I gave you a device to control the energy of the demon hunter, so I was able to rescue you easily, but the place where the two of them were locked up is much more tightly guarded than here, and the magic of the little magician girl has not been removed, so naturally there will be more manpower to take care of them. You don't have a demonic sword now, and your combat power is limited, the reason why Paul can run rampant in the business circle of San Mayer is because he has a lot of strange props in his hands for him to use, such as this bracelet-like thing you carry in your hand, which can make your demon hunter energy completely unusable, and there are also a lot of defensive props here, if we attack, it will definitely not end well, but it will anger Paul's guy. Devon's expression became serious, he was not sure that he would succeed in rescuing Nicole and Leah.
"Can you get rid of this thing in my hand? I can take them out without the Demon Sword. Lambert asked Devon, pointing to the bracelet-shaped prop he was carrying.
"I'm sorry, but I can't destroy this thing, the only thing that can undo it is Paul's key." Devin shook his head and said helplessly.
"Then is it too late for me to go back and call someone to come and save them?" Lambert then asked.
"I'm afraid not." Devin shook his head and said, "Once this guy guarding you wakes up, our actions will be discovered immediately, and your two friends will definitely suffer at that time." ”
After Devon rescued Lambert with the key, the two of them quickly moved in the direction where Nicole and Leah were being held, and now the guards who were knocked unconscious had not woken up, and once they woke up and found that Lambert had escaped, it would undoubtedly be a few more levels more difficult to rescue Nicole and Leah again.
When Lambert and Devin came to the vicinity of a prison-like house, they saw about four goblins guarding the door, and if they wanted to sneak in, they would definitely not be able to sneak in. ”
Devin quietly approached the four goblins guarding the door, and at the same time took out a round prop from his pocket, he pressed it lightly, and the whole person's body began to emit a faint green light, and then with the flickering of the prop light, Devon's whole body is now like a real ghost.
"You four, I'm looking for you for something." Devin walked slowly towards the four men guarding the door, and when Devon's appearance was clearly displayed in front of the four guys, they were instantly frightened and a little distracted.
"Dede... We didn't mean to harm you—" A goblin was so frightened that he couldn't speak, when he saw Devon appear in front of him.
"Still named? Hurry up and call the vice president! It's rude. Another goblin hurriedly reminded the previous goblin.
"Vice-President, that guy Paul forced us to do it, and if we don't do it, he'll definitely kill us... Vice-President, have mercy on us, and spare us all waste...", the third goblin knelt down in front of Devin with his hands folded and begged.
"Pity you? Then who will pity me? I lost my life like this, who will be responsible? Who's going to pity me?! Well? Devon's voice immediately raised several pitches, and his expression became angry.
"That, that, that... So what to do... We can't resurrect you either... We don't have what it takes... I don't even have the ability to resurrect people, even the Demon King..."The fourth goblin stammered out a complete sentence.
"I advise you to do more good deeds from now on, and let go of other irrelevant people who are implicated because of me, so that I can still consider letting you go, otherwise I will take you away together, and I will do what I say!" Devin yelled at the four guys in front of him.
Lambert, who was eavesdropping on the side, had already thrown himself into Devon's admiration at this time, but he didn't expect that the identity of such a "dead man" could be so useful.
"Hurry, hurry! Quickly open the door and let the two little girls go. One of the goblins said to the other three.
"Let them go, and tomorrow President Paul will ask us what to do?" The other goblin asked with a look of horror.
"Tomorrow? If we don't release them now, we will have to be taken away by the vice president now, so let them go quickly! The guy hurriedly opened the door of the cell, and when these goblins came to Nicole and Leah's side, the people sleeping inside didn't know what was going on, so when the guards inside the door came forward to ask, they were directly reprimanded by the guys outside the door:
", if you don't release them to the soul of the vice president, we're going to go to hell."
The guard, who slept a little uncertainly, didn't know what was going on, and he thought he was still in a dream.
"Vice President? Soul? I must not have woken up yet. ”
When the four goblins opened Nicole and Leah's cell, they thought it was some other trick of the goblins, and just wanted to resist these guys, not wanting to be taken away by them, but they were directly put out by these guys.
"Vice... Vice-President, you brought the people you wanted, and we're going to let them go now. With that, the goblin cut off the rope that bound Nicole and Leah's hands.
Although the goblin who was killed by Lambert appeared in front of Nicole and Leah as a soul again, at least the current situation was that he was rescued, so Nicole and Leah did not seem particularly flustered.
Nicole and Leah, who had regained their mobility, did not embarrass them, and only Nicole instantly released a sleep magic to put down all four guys.
Seeing that the situation was safe, Lambert hurriedly ran out from the other side.
"Sister Nicole, Leah, are you two okay, those guys didn't embarrass you, right?" Lambert asked with concern.
"Lambert? That's great! You're okay! How do you have anything to do with this... How do you stay with him? What happened?" Nicole also laughed happily when she saw that Lambert was fine, but all the doubts burst out at this moment.
"Leave that alone, Sister Nicole, let's get to a safe place first, and then I'll tell you both everything that happened." Lambert replied.
Lambert, Leah, Nicole, and Devon came to Devon's residence, and after Lambert and Devon explained, Nicole and Leah finally understood what had happened.
"Oh... So Mr. Devon didn't die, so he rescued you and us. Nicole suddenly realized.
"That Paul was so bad that he did this to his companions." Leah said with a look of righteous indignation.
"Mr. Devon, thank you for saving the three of us, you see that I injured you, not only did you not get angry, but repaid your grievances with virtue, I really don't know what to say about this kindness." Lambert bowed deeply to Devon and said.
