466. Library

A sweet smile broke out on Aphrodite's face. She put her little hand on Surdak's outstretched arm and used Surdak's strength to climb up the heavily deserted stone wall. None of the four people in the group

He had time to collect the corpse of the hell dog and fled the execution ground in a hurry.

 The sound of fighting in the execution ground quickly attracted the nearby hellhound patrol.

There were nearly a dozen corpses of hell dogs lying near the stone platform. Some of the sticky purple blood flowed to the sand and quickly formed black and purple scabs. The giant hell dog was cut in half with a sharp weapon, and the internal organs in its belly flowed out.

A large group of other hell dogs came out. Some had their heads smashed, and some were shot in the eyes by sharp arrows and died on the spot.

 “Ouch…”

The howls of hellhounds sounded like an alarm in the ruins of the city.

The two succubi who heard the warning from the Hell Dogs were standing on the street not far from the execution place. They looked at each other with a somewhat complicated mood. They did not fly to the execution place immediately, but saw them appear at the intersection of the street.

A large number of hell dogs spread their wings and flew into the air, rushing back to the execution ground first.

The two succubi saw the body of the executioner demon split in half on the stone platform, and after confirming again and again that Aphrodite had escaped, they returned to the execution ground and pretended to look for clues.

At the same time, a three-headed hellhound arrived with a large group of men.

The three heads shot out fearful fury, constantly looking left and right to look for clues on the scene. Seeing the mess on the execution ground, almost all of which were the corpses of hell dogs, these three hell dogs couldn't help but let out waves of low sounds.

roar.

Its three pairs of eyes glared fiercely at the two succubi on the side, their eyes full of threats and warnings. The three hell dogs and the two succubi did not communicate at all on the execution ground.

His men quickly surrounded all areas of the execution site.

Not long after, a black magician rode a magic weapon and came from the direction of the library.

The three hell dogs and the succubus looked at the black magician at the same time. The magic weapon brought up a strong wind and fell down. The black magician saw that the hell dogs and the succubus stood clearly separated on the execution ground without saying a word, and took the lead.

He climbed onto the stone platform of the execution ground and squatted down next to the body of the torture demon that was split into two. Watching the torture demon that he had spent several precious magic materials to summon being split into two halves, the black magician just silently said

Put the broken body of Xing Mo into the magic waist bag, and prepare to go back and check again to see if it is possible to repair it again.

But just thinking about drawing an extremely complex set of magic summoning circles gives the black magician a headache.

 He ordered the three-headed hell dog with a sullen face: "Instruct your men to capture her again. I want to know the truth about this matter."

His demon language was not very fluent. The three heads of the three-headed hell dog looked over at the same time. The three heads showed different expressions, and the eyes of them were bursting with anger. The head stared at the stone platform without any emotion.

He said politely: "Every giant dog is the best warrior in the clan. Their death will not be in vain. I will cut the enemies who killed them into pieces..."

The head with ice-like eyes stared at the stone platform and said: "At least a team of human construct knights can kidnap the criminals in such a short time."

The head in the middle of the three hell dogs opened a pair of black pupils, and the eyes were filled with profound silence. He said to the black magician: "There is a squad of Imperial Knights who have sneaked into the ruins of this city. They must not be here yet."

If you go far away, it’s probably not too late to look for him now.”

Seeing that the black magician was noncommittal, it turned around and growled a few times at the giant hell dogs that had been following behind it. The giant hell dogs jumped up on the pile of bones and ran out in all directions, mouthing

Let out bursts of howls.

All of a sudden, the ordinary hell dogs around them who heard the howlings gathered towards several giant hell dogs. In just a few minutes, the streets of the ruins of the city were already filled with hell dogs. At the same time,

More hell dogs continued to gather from all directions, and these hell dogs began to search the ruins of the city like crazy.

The ghost monkeys who were originally thought to be hiding in hiding were once again found out from the ruins by the hell dogs, and were chased furiously.

Three hell dogs were like kings, leaping onto the highest pile of bones, raising their three heads and letting out a long roar in the air.

There were only two succubi left on the execution ground. The black magician turned around and looked at the two succubi coldly, his eyes full of dissatisfaction and warning. The two succubi looked at each other and put their hands on their hands.

. He shrugged his chest, bowed to the black magician, and asked in a low voice: "Sir, special envoy, what do we need from the succubus clan?"

The black magician snorted softly from his nose, and warned the two succubi in a very dissatisfied tone: "I hope you will not protect Aphrodite, otherwise this matter will be brought to King Amozdan.

It won’t be so easy!”

One of the taller succubi quickly stepped forward and said in a sweet voice: "We will never protect Aphrodite. She is responsible for all this. I will truthfully report this matter to the leader."

The black magician’s face softened slightly and said:

"That's good!"

The two succubi looked at each other again, and then said: "Sir Envoy, if there is nothing else, let's go and rest first!"

The black magician raised his head again and asked the two succubi: "By the way, how are you finding the materials to reinforce the passage to hell?"

The two succubi quickly lowered their heads and said to the black magician: "Recently, the scope of activities of the magician reconnaissance team outside has become larger and larger. Every time we go out, we have to take advantage of the night, so we don't gain much."

The black magician obviously did not have high expectations for the succubi. He only said: "Speed ​​up the translation process of the grimoire. Maybe in the near future, we will be able to obtain the coordinate points of the Maca plane. Maybe King Amozdan will

There is a way to reversely reinforce the hell passage. As long as the demon warriors can enter the Maca plane through this passage, even if the main force of the Bena Legion comes over by then, they will not be able to defeat the demon army."

When the succubus saw what the black magician said, he quickly said:

 “Yes! Follow your arrangements.”

 …

 When the leaders of the three Hell Hounds summoned all the Hell Hounds in the city ruins, Surdak was moving towards the edge of the city ruins.

 The roars of hell dogs could be heard.

The giant hellhounds all over the city also took the opportunity to respond. They also stood on the heights of the ruins of the city and roared.

 The city was filled with the howls of hellhounds.

 A large number of hell dogs poured into the city center through various roads, so the Surdak team could only hide in the rubble of a ruins to avoid the large number of hell dogs.

The succubus had been silently following Surdak. The half-elf archer Samira looked up at the street. The originally empty street was crowded with passing hell dogs, and occasionally a few ghost monkeys walked by.

He emerged from the hidden city ruins, spit out a few poisonous needles at the hell dogs, and then shook his big head and launched a suicide attack at the hell dogs.

 The vicious dogs of hell bit the ghost monkeys to death, and then continued to move forward with the corpses of the ghost monkeys in their mouths.

Samira carefully put down the disguise on her head. She squeezed next to Suldak, her fine hair was covered with sand, and she asked Surdak in a low voice:

“Now that the ruins of the city are full of patrolling hellhounds, what should we do next?”

Surdak knew that he could not hide in the crevices of the ruins all the time. The Hell Dogs would soon search here, so he said: "We must first find a safe place to hide to avoid the Hell Dogs."

Searching, and then looking for opportunities to leave the ruins of the city, it is not safe here."

“There are so many hell dogs searching everywhere outside, where can we go?” Andrew, an indigenous warrior, huddled among the ruins and found it difficult to breathe.

Suldak and Samira didn't have any good ideas, and they didn't know where the team would hide for a while.

“If you ask me, let’s just choose a direction and go straight out. I don’t think those hell dogs can stop us!” Andrew touched the ax in his arms confidently and said.

  While the three of the team were struggling, the succubus Aphrodite hid next to her and said weakly: "I know a very secret place. It's safe there, and the hell dogs don't dare to search it yet."

 …

In this hiding place where it was difficult to even turn around, the succubus Aphrodite crawled over Surdak, then crossed over Samira, and peeled away the sand under the uncollapsed wall behind Andrew, and the bottom was exposed

A stone slab came, and the succubus Aphrodite said to Andrew: "Help me move this stone slab!"

Although she spoke Green Empire language, her tone always seemed so weird.

Although Andrew remained silent, he followed the succubus' instructions and lifted up the stone slab below with one hand. A dark hole appeared under the stone slab, and some sand slid down along the edge of the hole.

The succubus Aphrodite jumped down first. The hole was not deep. The succubus Aphrodite stood in the hole with her upper body exposed.

  She smiled, but it looked a little forced, as if she had remembered something unhappy.

She told the team: "Originally, this was an abandoned drainage culvert I discovered after consulting many urban construction drawings in the library. Now this culvert has been dry for who knows how many years, but the rock slabs inside have not weathered away.

A culvert can lead directly to the outside of the city, which was part of my escape plan, but unfortunately Gilmore was caught before it was used!"

As she spoke, she lowered her body and got into the culvert.

 When Andrew hesitated, Samira had already passed Andrew, and her body turned lightly into the dark channel.

Andrew gritted his teeth and jumped down from the hole. He was so tall that he had to kneel in the culvert to crawl forward.

When Surdak jumped down, he did not forget to restore the stone slabs at the entrance of the cave to their original state. The succubus Aphrodite climbed at the front. It was very dark inside the culvert. The succubus Aphrodite didn't know what to say.

Using magic, her eyes released two beams of light, illuminating the path ahead of the culvert.

I don’t know how long this culvert has been dry. The ditch has been trampled to be very smooth, and there is no messy debris.

Suldak was just thinking about who had cleaned the culvert here so cleanly when he saw a shadow flashing in front of him.

Samira quickly put the arrow on the forest bow and shot out an arrow with a whoosh, directly piercing the shadow.

The forest bow in her hand is a type of short bow that can be used even in narrow culverts.

The succubus Aphrodite crawled faster. In the culvert in front, a ghost monkey's head was shot through by an arrow, and it fell straight to the ground. The other ghost monkeys in the culvert ran away in fear.

“It turns out that this is their hiding place!” Andrew said with a sigh as he looked at the ghost monkey that had been shot through the head.

Succubus Aphrodite looked at the ghost monkey with complicated eyes, and she didn't know what unhappy things she thought of.

 She collected herself and continued to lead the way.

After Samira shot and killed seven ghost monkeys in a row, the ghost monkeys hiding in the culvert finally did not dare to appear in the public eye again. The succubus Aphrodite crawled in front for a long time and finally stopped in front of a shaft.

Now that we are down, this place is a bit more spacious. At least everyone can take turns to stand up and stretch their muscles, and the bottom of the culvert is covered with some fine river sand. Even if you lie down when you are tired, you can sleep. This is indeed a very good hiding place.

Place.

Everyone thought this was the hiding place chosen by the succubus Aphrodite.

Suldak even wondered whether the secret passage formed by this culvert could lead to the outside of the city.

But at this moment, the succubus Aphrodite quietly climbed up the ladder of the shaft. She pushed open the manhole cover and got out. Samira was afraid that she would run away alone, so she also got out after him...



Suldak and Andrew hurriedly followed. The shaft was connected to a long and narrow corridor, which was almost like a long and narrow gap in a building.

The succubus Aphrodite pried open a ventilation duct, which was even narrower, and Andrew could only crawl inside.

 Through the thick wall, the four members of the team walked into a slightly brighter room.

What entered Surdak's sight was a room with walls lined with books. The moonstone on the roof of the room released soft light. There was a tilted desk in the center of the room. Surdak stood behind Aphrodite.

, looking at this very private room, asked the succubus: "Where is this?"

Succubus Aphrodite sat down next to the desk. She glanced at the bookshelves on the surrounding walls and replied: "A room in the library..."

“You took us to the library?” Surdak didn’t expect that Aphrodite would be so bold, and couldn’t help but feel a little dizzy.

"Without the order of the special envoy, no hell dog will come close to here! We can hide here for a while, they will never think that we will be here!" After saying that, she walked to the wall.

Pointing to the books on the wall bookshelf, he added: "Here are records of all the civilizations that once existed in this ancient city. It may be helpful for you to understand the ruins of this city. Oh! By the way, I have heard the special envoy use

The Green Empire describes this period of history, and she calls this place the Hexian Civilization of the Goblin Era..."
