The sky was already bright, and the dawn of the east was shining obliquely, making the vast sky look a little pale. The fog was not very bright, and the dim light gave everything around it a faint haze, making it look like it was only 5 or 6 o'clock.

Alice rubbed her frozen face vigorously: "It's so cold, it will snow soon." ”

Niru Lieutenant put his hand out the window, and in a moment his hand was wet with a drizzle.

"Is it raining?" Alice also reached out, "It's really raining." ”

The fog was heavy and the rain was light, and it was almost impossible to see the rain outside when standing in the house.

Niru Lieutenant looked back at the stone brick walls, "You didn't activate the heating magic array?"

"Is there one?" Alice then noticed that there was a magic circle embedded with fire crystals around the room, "I don't see it, hehe." She scratched her head in embarrassment.

Wei walked over and activated the formations one by one: "It can be seen that you have a deep affection for your master." ”

"You went to bed last night. Alice said apologetically.

"No, I didn't sleep last night. ”

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing. ”

"You don't seem to be in a good mood. Alice said, "I know, you must feel sorry for your companions and comrades. She looked back at the monsters outside the window, and some of the monsters were turned into soldiers: "I don't understand, the corpse monsters in the Weishenme forest didn't come to the village?"

Niru Wei said: "Although these humanoid monsters below have lost themselves, it seems that they still regard this place as their home in their subconscious, and they do not allow the demonic beasts outside to invade. ”

Not only was the magic array for heating in the room activated, but the lights were also lit.

Alice looked at the room where she slept, although it was a little empty, but it was very golden, and every ornament and object was either precious or valuable: "In such a mountainous area, there is such a gorgeous golden palace, what a ...... Alas!" Her sigh was not admiration, but regret.

"A country that is poor and weak, and whose officials are so rich, is doomed sooner or later. Hurrington walked into the room as well.

"Hulingerton, aren't you resting?"

"It's so noisy outside, how can I rest well. Hurrington also looked at the furnishings of the room, and sneered, "Only an exploding household would make a palace like this, and such a room is really ugly." ”

"Hey, don't talk about it. Alice glanced at Niru Captain and whispered, "If you say that, people will be angry." ”

"It doesn't matter, I'm not a citizen of this country, I'm not an official of this country, I can only be regarded as a personal subordinate of the Overseer here." ”

Alice said, "So you're not from this country." ”

"This is supposed to be a paradise full of gold, a place for people to live happily," said Hulingerton, "but some people privately call it hell on earth, and they have heard that anyone who is dissatisfied will be taken here as a prisoner and served in labor." ”

"You're right. Wei said: "Whether it is a real criminal or an ordinary civilian, as long as it angers the officials, they will be escorted here, and the prisoners who are escorted here will never have a chance to leave again." ”

Hurrington pointed out the window: "What about the women down there, who are they also guilty of crimes, or who have angered the officials?"

"It's not. "They are military prostitutes here. The soldiers who live here also need to have entertainment, so the king allows them to go to various towns and find some willing women to come up the mountain?"

"The women here are all voluntary?" said Hurrington, looking incredulous.

"It's all voluntary. Even if they don't want to, the soldiers have a way to make them will. And as long as a woman from any family is brought here, that family will not be guilty. ”

"What does it mean not to sin?" Alice clearly did not understand the word.

Hurrington said coldly: "It means that no matter what that family does, they will be exonerated." ”

"No, not exoneration. Niru Wei looked disgusted: "It's not a crime at all. As long as they are not disadvantageous to government officials, they are exempt from other minor crimes such as rape, robbery, robbery, and theft. ”

When Alice heard these things, she gritted her teeth with hatred: "Bastard, this country is really a bastard country!"

Hurrington sighed: "Gueniz can be said to have been corrupted from top to bottom, and it is only a matter of time before he will perish, and I don't think this day is far off." Alice, don't be too angry about this kind of thing. ”

Alice snorted heavily.

Captain Niru: "I hate this country too. ”

"Then you're still here, and you're still here to do evil!" Alice said with hatred at once.

"It's for the money," said Hurrington, "and if you work here, the salary must be good." ”

The lieutenant looked at me in displeasure and said, "I'm staying here just to repay the kindness that the Shank Overseers have done to me back then." I swore to help him for the rest of my life. ”

Alice asked, "Then you can do something unreasonable here?"

"I can't do that much. The lieutenant suddenly said angrily: "What does the dark corruption of this country have to do with me, is this caused by me? My purpose is very simple, that is, to repay the Shank Overseers, and I don't care about the rest." ”

Alice was taken aback by him, she thought for a moment and said, "Yes, this country will be like this, it has nothing to do with you." ”

The anger in Captain Niru's heart came and went as quickly as he went, and he sighed softly, "I have also dissuaded the Sander Overseers many times, and although he was happy to listen to my advice and advice, he did not listen to this matter. Civilians will say that this place is like hell, and they are not wrong at all, this place is more terrible than hell. ”

......

An hour and a half later, in the back hall of the Golden Palace, everyone sat around and ate the food of the cooking haode.

There was food in the palace, not only was there it, but it was also abundant, fruits, vegetables, fish, meat and aquatic products, and several huge freezers were piled up. You must know that Guines is a landlocked country, not near the sea up and down, and it is located in the north, but there are fruits and fresh seafood that can only be found in the south, and it costs an unknown amount to eat this kind of food here.

Scallop mushroom porridge, lobster, sauced beef, etc., these foods are very nutritious. However, such a hearty meal did not change everyone's mood. ,

Hurrington cut a piece of shrimp with a knife and fork, dipped it in the sauce and asked, "Have you thought of anything to do?"

Nobody spoke, no one spoke, there was just no way.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Alice said, "My master said, but Liliang can't compare to others, so you have to rely on wisdom." ”

"Your master said this is nonsense. Chloe's bearded (or a good name, Khan!) companion said, "Who doesn't know how to rely on wisdom, we thought all night and didn't come up with a good idea." ”

Alice glared at the bearded man fiercely: "Bastard, you can insult me, but you can't insult my master, what my master says is always right." ”

"Really?" the bearded sneered disdainfully.

"You ......"

Hurrington grabbed Alice, who was about to get angry.

Anruge also said to the bearded man: "She's a child, you're an adult." ”

"Hmph. The bearded man stopped talking.

In fact, the beard didn't mean to target Alice, but because of yesterday's incident. He hated not being able to meet Alice sooner and let his companion die.

Chloe said: "There is really no good way, we are too few in number, Liliang is too weak, and we are not opponents one-on-one, let alone so many opponents." If we are surrounded, we can surrender and negotiate, but they ......"

The lieutenant asked Alice, "What did you just want to say?"

Alice shook her head: "I can't help it, I'm just wondering if I can find the weakness of those monsters." ”

"What are the weaknesses of the monsters?

"Their bodies are at least five to six times stronger than normal people, and their speed is at least one and a half times faster than ours. ”

"Their liliang has also improved dramatically. Niru Lieutenant said: "I know a few soldiers in there, and their strength was only about mid-level before, but now they are stronger than high-level professionals in terms of liliang alone." ”

Anglo continued: "What's more, they have special abilities, and all kinds of strange things that grow on their bodies make it impossible for us to guard against them. Thinking about it, we have no other way than to wait for rescue, and if we want to rescue, we have to let the government know the specific situation here and let them send troops as soon as possible. He looked at Niru Wei and said, "Captain, there should be a memory stone in the gold mining area that has direct contact with the outside world, right?"

"Hmm. Wei said: "But Tongyi Stone is not in the palace, but in the barracks." I had thought of going to the barracks to inform the outside world about the situation here, but the situation in the barracks was too dangerous, much more dangerous than here, and I couldn't get in several times. We have a rule here that we have to inform the local government of the gold mining once a month, and if they don't, they will definitely notice that something is wrong here. However, the last communication was 17 days ago, and there are 13 days to go before the next one. Now we can only hope that the outside world will know through the monsters wandering in the forest that something is wrong with us. ”

"Looks like that's another problem. Anglo said: "Now we are afraid that we will have to wait for rescue, and we will have to wait for a long time." ”

The bearded man shook his head and said, "What if the officials from the outside world don't find out? Those officials have always been lazy and lazy, and even if they find out, I'm afraid they won't pay attention to it." ”

Captain Niru thought for a moment and nodded: "This is very likely, we had nearly 900 soldiers here before, and more than 1,000 of various demonic beasts guarded them, and there have been no problems in the gold mine here for decades, and they have never worried about any danger we will have here." ”

Alice said: "Then we can't sit still here, and when they find out and send troops to help, we have to find a way to inform them." ”

Chloe said, "But the question is, how do we get out, how do we conduct the barracks. ”

The crowd fell silent again.

Suddenly, Hurington put down his knife and fork, looked up at them, and said, "I have a way." ”
