This is one of the many rooms in the library. Dozens of moonstones are inlaid on the roof and ceiling, giving off a faint glow. Perhaps because of the confined space, the books on the bookshelves have not decayed over time.
The covers of these books are still so brightly colored.
Surdak planned to look through the books on the bookshelf, only to find that the text recorded on the side of the books belonged to ancient goblin script. He couldn't understand it at all. Of course, he couldn't start for a while. Surdak had never heard about it.
The era of Hex or any history related to goblin civilization. As for Samira and Andrew, the former grew up in an orphanage and the latter was born in a Maka aboriginal family. Their education was quite limited, so for goblins
No one can tell exactly what species it is.
The wooden ladder next to the bookshelf also has guide rollers. These bookshelves are nearly four or five meters high. No matter where you want to pick up the books, you can push this wooden ladder over. This wooden ladder is coated with a layer of
Suldak put his hand over the thick oil paint and discovered that the wood inside the paint had become fibrous, like cotton wool wrapped in the paint.
Suldak felt that if he exerted just a little more force, the seemingly well-preserved ladder might collapse right before his eyes.
After the succubus Aphrodite introduced the books here, she sat in front of the long table. She looked a little cute and sat there awkwardly. She waited for her to sort out her mood before speaking seriously to Surdak.
Said: "Thank you for saving me."
The girl’s delicate and fair face is like a ripe red apple.
Green Empire language has a weird accent. Her voice is very special. Although it sounds a little hoarse, it makes people feel very comfortable, as if it has some kind of magnetism.
She was wearing a tight leather jacket that outlined an exaggeratedly perfect figure, with a slender waist and plump hips. When she was crawling into the ditch just now, her body was covered in dust and she looked a little embarrassed. Especially after a pair of wings on her back were cut off,
There are still two slightly raised scars, and the blood from the wounds has completely scabbed, but it seems that Aphrodite is still enduring the pain there, and she has not completely gotten rid of the imbalance after losing her wings.
The journey was still a bit bumpy.
She wanted to see the condition of her back, but unfortunately she couldn't see it even though her body was very soft.
Suldak handed over a roll of hemostatic bandage. Aphrodite did not reach out to take it, but looked at him with a puzzled face.
"You just saved us, so we are even." Surdak said, and then said to the succubus: "Well...Aphrodite, can I tell you something about the situation here?"
Samira took the roll of hemostatic bandage and asked Aphrodite if she could help.
Perhaps knowing that losing her wings had become an irreversible fact, Aphrodite shook her head at Samira.
Subsequently, she seemed to have figured out something, and her face became a little pale.
She looked at Suldak and said: "You are not Gilmore's knights, and you are not here to save him. Until now, you have not asked about his situation. You don't care about his life or death at all!"
Aphrodite stared into Surdak's eyes very seriously.
Suldak spread his hands and said: "We are the reconnaissance team of the Bena Army and are on a mission. It was a complete accident that we came here, but if conditions permit, I am willing to rescue them from prison."
Aphrodite seemed to want to find the real answer in Surdak's eyes, and said to Surdak: "He said he was Baron Gilmore, a noble with a high status in your place. As long as anyone knows that he is
If he is locked up here, we will definitely find a way to rescue him."
Suldak tried his best to sound sincere. Although he had never heard of the name Baron Gilmore, he still said: "Of course, compared to the common people, the status of all nobles is very high."
Aphrodite said: "If you need someone to lead the way, I can help you. I know where he is imprisoned. We just need to sneak over and rescue him from there. There are only some hell dogs guarding him."
Suldak looked at Aphrodite and asked with some confusion: "Why are you willing to help us? Shouldn't the demons and humans be mortal enemies?"
Aphrodite shook her shoulders again. Seeing that she was a little uncomfortable, Samira walked behind her and wanted to use a bandage to bandage the place where her wings were cut off. The succubus felt Samira's pain.
He gave her a kind and grateful look.
Then he answered Surdak's question: "The great demon lords and the angels in the high-level temple are the mortal enemies, and this time... this time we are considered the invaders. Although this is not my intention, but
This is the case in real time. And I just want to see the sunshine, beach, sea breeze and grass in this world. I want to lie on the beach and bask in the sun. I don’t need to completely occupy this place to do these things. I hope the demons can
To coexist with other races in a certain plane, I also know that my idea is a bit naive..."
The girl in front of Suldak may be an alien among succubi. After all, there are big differences between succubus and succubus. Just like there are some magical heretics in the Green Empire, they want to welcome the darkness all the time.
…
Suldak asked her curiously: "Who did you learn Green Empire language from?"
Aphrodite replied: "Envoy Jesse Hausman, he has the highest say here, and he has very powerful power."
Speaking of the special envoy, Aphrodite seemed very afraid and even spoke in a slightly lower voice.
Suldak asked her: "Is he a succubus? Or a three-headed hellhound? Or a son of the devil?"
Aphrodite shook her head and said: "No, in fact we don't know his identity, but we guess he may be a human magician with demon blood."
Hearing what Aphrodite said, Surdak then thought that someone had opened the passage to hell, and that person now seemed to be the special envoy, so he tried to ask: "The special envoy is the black man who opened the passage to hell."
The magician? He's right here? By the way, where is the devil's door?"
Suldak suddenly thought of the purpose of the combat team's mission. He did not expect to find out information about the passage to hell here.
Aphrodite thought for a moment and then said: "The passage to hell is not here, it should be far away from here. When we came here, we walked out of the darkness for a long time. I am not sure where it is.
, we came here to find some magic information from the Hex era, and to find ways to crack the laws of the plane and strengthen the passages to hell, but so far there has been no progress."
Andrew waved the ax in his hand with some excitement and said: "It doesn't matter, as long as we catch the black magician, we can ask him about the location of the passage to hell."
Aphrodite looked at the three members of Surdak's team, but shook her head slightly and said: "He has many guards around him. Among all the members of our succubus clan who entered this plane, the two strongest guards will never leave.
Beside him, there are four three-headed hell dog leaders taking turns to guard him. If we cannot catch him right away, we may be surrounded by a large group of hell dogs."
Suldak touched his chin and said: "I think our strength alone may be a little insufficient, maybe we need some partners...Aphrodite, how should we go to rescue our companions."
…”
Aphrodite did not expect that the thoughts of the members of Surdak's team would change so quickly. Just now, they had no interest in rescuing their companions, but now they were eager to take action. However, she thought about it and came to this library.
When he came to the vent, he said: "Follow me."
…
Leading the Surdak team into the culvert again, there were almost no ghost monkeys in this culvert.
As the hell dogs launched a full-scale manhunt in the ruins of the city, there were fewer guard dogs on the Colosseum side. There were several sturdy round spire iron cages in a row of animal pens on the east side of the Colosseum.
, these cages are surrounded by magic circles. The prisoners are squatting inside the cages, and a faint magical halo flashes from time to time on the ground.
Several giant hell dogs were wandering next to the cage, looking at the cage eagerly, as if if the prisoners in the cage made the slightest movement, they would rush into the cage and tear these humans into pieces.
There are six cages in total. Among them, the cage where the succubus Aphrodite was imprisoned is now empty. The other five cages are almost full of prisoners, but one iron cage cannot hold many people. The total number of these prisoners is
There were less than fifty people. The armors, weapons and coats of the prisoners inside had been stripped off. Many knights were injured. There were also some merchants and nobles inside. They huddled together with dejected expressions, trembling for their upcoming fate.
trembling.
They did not dare to move. The iron bars of this kind of cage were covered with sharp thorns. Only by standing in the center of the cage could one avoid being pricked by the thorns. Prisoners at the edge could be stabbed even if they twisted their bodies.
The iron thorns stabbed people, so everyone could only gather in the middle and huddle together.
This will not only avoid being punctured by thorns, but also avoid being bitten by the hell dogs patrolling outside the cage.
A giant hellhound had just turned around the inner corridor of the Colosseum when it saw a big ax coming towards it. It had no time to dodge, and its skull was shattered by the big ax.
Surdak rushed out from around the corner and held him up immediately, letting the giant hell dog lean against the wall silently.
Samira drew her bow and shot two arrows, killing the two ordinary hell dogs guarding the door. Surdak's team unexpectedly rushed to the second cage so easily. Before the other hell dogs could
When he reacted, Surdak waved the Craftsman's Sword in his hand and hit the big iron door bolt of the cage hard. With a 'dang' sound, the big iron door bolt fell to the ground.
Suldak kicked open the large iron door of the cage, leaned half of his body into the cage, and used the craftsman's sword to cut off the vines tied to a knight.
The knight regained his freedom and immediately helped his companion untie the rope tied to his body. The knight's spirit was a little sluggish and he didn't seem to be in a good condition. However, at this time, he still asked Surdak: "Which team are you in?"
of?"
Suldak replied: "Hilanza Guard Camp."
As he spoke, he blocked the hell dogs from jumping towards the cage.
The knight thought seriously for a moment, and it seemed that the Bena Army in his memory really didn't have this number. Then he realized that the opponent was actually the local army, and asked again: "How many troops came from the legion this time?"
Suldak was slightly startled. He stood at the door of the cage and looked back at the knight. He smiled at him and said, "Everyone is in front of you."
In addition to himself, the so-called everyone also included Andrew, the Nanai warrior who was blocking the entrance to the animal pen on the east side, and standing on the second floor of the stands, avoiding the bites of the hell dogs around him, while constantly shooting in this direction.
Samira of Arrows.
This is the hell dog in the Colosseum. All the hell dogs have gathered here, and the howls of the hell dogs can be heard everywhere, as if calling the hell dogs in other areas. Suddenly, in the Colosseum,
It's like opening a pot.
Surdak threw the Craftsman's Sword in his hand to the knight, and took out the blood-red crescent moon from his waist. The two of them stood at the door of the cage, one on the left and one on the right, helping other prisoners in the cage to escape. These people were trying to survive.
Regardless of their injuries, the prisoners rushed out of their cages one after another and fought with the hell dogs that were coming one after another.
The knight held the craftsman's sword in his hand and did not dare to delay. He walked quickly to the second cage and wanted to cut off the iron door bolt like Suldak, but he used all his strength to cut it three times in a row.
His arm was numb before he cut off the iron door bolt. He looked at his hand and felt that maybe it was because his condition was not at its peak.
At this time, Suldak was already standing at the fourth door, assisting the prisoners inside to come out, and this cage was obviously filled with nobles and businessmen. They must have been tortured a lot, and everyone walked out of the cage with injuries.
, they did not dare to face the hell dogs that rushed towards them, and hid behind Suldak one after another.
At this time, the succubus Aphrodite staggered over from Andrew. She ran to Suldak, hugged the arm of a pale noble, and asked him excitedly: "Gil
Mo, it's great that you are still alive, I thought those guys had eaten you..."
The noble's eye sockets were sunken and his face was bruised. He was slightly startled when he saw the succubus Aphrodite.
Several nobles behind him saw the curved horns hidden in Aphrodite's hair, and they all looked at the noble named Gilmore with astonishment and disbelief.
"Gilmore, what are you doing? Do you still want to have an affair with the demons..."
“…” Baron Gilmore was so frightened that he could hardly stand.
He looked around helplessly, and his eyes fell on Surdak, who was wearing a bloody shirt. He broke away from Aphrodite's hands, ran quickly to Surdak, and pointed at Aphrodite.
Frodi shouted loudly: "Catch her quickly, knight! She is not a human being, she is a succubus. I have nothing to do with her. A disgusting and cunning succubus. I am a succubus."
How could the Imperial Baron be related to a demon succubus..."
