Xia Han appeared in a dark wooden room. The foul air made him almost vomit out the food, and the nausea caused by the white tiger's bumpy running did not dissipate.
"Why did a girl appear?"
"Not an enemy, she has no ears on her head!"
"Mother-in-law, come and take a look!"
There were some weak and hoarse voices in the wooden house. These were the voices of women.
"Quiet, don't make any noise." Under the moonlight leaking from the window, a hunchbacked old woman walked slowly over with a cane: "Don't attract those aliens."
She walked to Xia Han and examined his appearance under the moonlight.
"Unfamiliar face, healthy complexion...Child, are you a mage from outside?" the old woman said, and her own face was revealed. It was an extremely dry and skinny face, like wrinkles and
The old skin of the scar covers the bone directly.
Her lips were pale and colorless, but her eyes were shining brightly: "The sound of fighting coming from outside, are you returning to this land?"
‘Bang!’ was the sound of a heavy object falling.
"Humans are back..." "We are saved!" "Sister, wow wow..."
The wooden house became noisy again, and the old woman angrily slammed her crutch on the ground: "Quiet, don't be discovered!"
The women quickly covered their mouths and only heard a few sobs.
Xia Han was surprised. He was not surprised to enter a wooden room where a woman was detained. What surprised him was: "You don't know me?"
It is no exaggeration to say that Xia Han, who has black hair and eyes, has outstanding appearance features and has been widely circulated. There should be few people in Qilin Continent who would ignore his appearance. However, Xia Han then thought about it and realized that it was quite normal for these people not to know.
Before the destruction of the Jade Empire, the death of the king paralyzed intelligence sharing in various places. Snow City has always been located on the border of the distant Crystal Snow Mountain. It is a barbaric land with no grass growing on it. Almost no outsiders dare to set foot on it, and the empire is destroyed so quickly.
, the refugees evacuated from the ocean one after another, and no one came here across thousands of mountains and mountains with the news of Xia Han.
As long as the orcs occupying this place don't tell anyone, these humans will naturally not know about it.
"Know you?" The old woman came forward and looked at Xia Han carefully: "I have indeed seen your appearance somewhere... but I am old and have poor memory, so I really can't remember who you are."
Xia Han breathed a sigh of relief: "Forget it, maybe I misunderstood."
He turned around and looked at the dark wooden house. Although he couldn't see the specific situation clearly, he could roughly spot dozens of women squatting by the wall.
"Have any magic or trackers been put into you?" Xia Han asked: "I want to rescue you, but I have to get rid of the danger on you first."
The others looked at each other.
"You want to save us all by yourself?" Surprise appeared on the old woman's face. She shook her head and said regretfully: "There are so many orcs patrolling outside, this is simply impossible..."
"But there is a way." She took a step forward on crutches and added: "Syracuse used to be a military base, and everyone here was a soldier stationed there. As long as we regain our strength, we can rush out."
The original Jade Empire never regarded Snow City as a city where people lived. It had only one function since its establishment: a military base for defense. Therefore, there were only troops stationed here - these women were once part of the army.
The old woman raised a hand with an iron ring on her wrist: "Find someone to untie this iron ring for us, and we can regain our previous strength."
Xia Han stared at the iron ring in the moonlight. The iron ring was covered with inscriptions, which may be magic patterns that limit power.
"Let me see." He reached out and grabbed the old woman's skinny hand and began to study the iron ring. There was no excess magic power emitted around it. It was obviously a tool to limit low-end power. The more powerful the person, the harder it was to control it. This snow ring
There should be no strong people among the wooden houses in the city.
【Pity.】
Xia Han felt regretful in his heart. As soon as he thought about it, his fingers were wrapped in green light.
"It's useless, this iron ring is very strong." The old woman noticed that Xia Han seemed to want to break the iron ring with her bare hands, and shook her head and said: "The iron used to make it is extremely magical, and when combined with the witchcraft of the orcs, it will
It’s so hard that it’s hard to break.”
"However, I have mastered its structure through research." A smile appeared on her dry face: "You go out and bring in a few heroic mages, and I will teach them the method to unlock it...it.
..”
The old woman stopped, her trembling mouth couldn't even close, and she just watched in shock as Xia Han put the two-part iron ring in her hand.
"This seems very simple!" Xia Han smiled, and then Minjue felt that the old woman's strength had begun to return, and her pulse gradually became stronger.
He turned around and blinked: "You guys should also come here in order, but you have to be quiet."
A pair of eyes full of surprise and hope looked at him, and then someone quickly stood up and walked over. The women lined up cautiously, and one by one, Xia Han was freed from his restraints.
"Power, my power is back..." "I can escape!" "Keep your voice down..." "Mother-in-law, mother-in-law, you've come to your senses!"
The old woman was gently shaken awake by the women who had regained her strength. She looked at Xia Han in disbelief: "This is impossible. I have been studying it for four years...it will obviously not be broken."
Xia Han ignored her: Who is this old woman? Judging from her tone, is her research difficult or some kind of authoritative research?
This time Xia Han was mistaken. The old woman beside him was known as the prestige of Xuecheng. She had many prominent identities at the same time, one of which was the great craftsman. Although Xuecheng's trap was designed by the first mage, all of it
The projects were all completed under the personal command of the old woman. She was an old woman who had witnessed the history of Syracuse.
But this old woman, who had lived through three dynasties, had not yet recognized her last king.
"Okay, there's no one left."
He reached out and broke off the last woman's iron ring. The green light in Xia Han's hand disappeared. He thought for a while and then said: "I have to go to other wooden houses to untie their iron rings, and then I can break out easily."
Although he did not have the freedom to teleport magic like Fiona, the rooms were very close, so he could pass them one after another. The old woman's shock to him had subsided. She was very interested in Xia Han's techniques.
At the same time, he agreed with his plan.
"Go quickly and rush out with the people in the last wooden house." The old woman said: "We will rush out and join you when we hear the noise."
There was a light in her eyes.
"There is an underground passage near here, which is the escape route I specially prepared for today."
Is there a way to escape? Xia Han glanced at the old woman strangely, but he was confident enough to complete the mission.
He didn't stay long, and quickly cast a spell by the wall and left, starting to help people in other wooden houses untie their bonds. In less than half an hour, he finished the final work.
At this time, the white tiger Tina, who was covered in bruises and bruises, had been chased by several male white tigers and was almost out of strength. She had no choice but to stop in a ruins and take a big breath to rest.
