In the dim passage, there is still some firelight remaining. Through the light of the fire, you can faintly see a huge behemoth, huddled in this not-so-wide passage.
"The master wants us to act quickly. It seems that the mage's attention has been completely attracted by the main body of the legion." Beside the Ogre King, the blue-skinned barbarian hero said slowly.
At this moment, a caveman poked his head out from the side of the passage and whispered something of unknown meaning.
As cavemen who live underground all year round, their eyes have long since degraded. No matter how dark the nearby environment is, it cannot affect their tunnel excavation. But the two savage creatures cannot. If they want to see everything around them clearly, they must use the help of
Light.
Under the leadership of the caveman, the Ogre King soon poked his head out of the ground.
Not-so-bright starlight shines from the sky. What is more dazzling than the starry sky is the Magic City not far away. Even though it was attacked not long ago, the lights there are still brightly lit in the dark night.
"It's late at night, let's set off now."
From the underground passage to York outside the city, he took stock of the nearby environment and made an immediate decision. From the owner's inquiry, he felt the owner's solemnity and urging. It seemed that the situation there was not as good as his own.
It went as smoothly as I thought.
"Where is that mage? Should we tell him?" Badu asked proactively, remembering the bloody mage who was specially arranged to protect him before his master left.
From the bloody mage, Badu felt extremely terrifying power, a power that ordinary barbaric creatures could never reach. In the face of that kind of magic, the bravery advocated by barbaric creatures seemed meaningless. p>
"Don't worry about him, he will follow us." York thought for a moment and answered quickly.
Badu nodded, then walked out of the passage, and together with the blue-skinned hero beside him, took advantage of the cover of night and headed northwest of Brakada.
The Ogre King is carrying a tight package behind his back. From the outside, nothing seems to be abnormal, but if you feel it carefully, you can find that the package blocks all nearby magical elements, even the detection spell of the legendary mage.
, and no trace of these savage creatures could be found.
At the same time, inside the prison.
The Scarlet Mage stood in the caveman's passage as if facing a formidable enemy, and in the darkness in front of him, he could faintly hear the crisp collision sound, which was the sound of the chain being dragged.
Confronting him was a demon with chains pierced all over his body. The chains penetrated deeply into every inch of his skin, and he manipulated those chains as if he were using his own body.
"I asked why I can't find you. It turns out you are hiding here..." The chained demon gasped, looking uncomfortable. Most of the battles that broke out in the prison were caused by him and the mages who found him.
Cause.
"Do you want to find us? Do you want to die?" The Scarlet Mage asked without showing any signs of weakness. In terms of strength, he will not be afraid of the chain demon in front of him.
"I know what you are hiding from."
However, the words of the chain demon made the bloody mage look stunned.
"You don't want the mage to know your whereabouts, right? In this case, it's best to agree to my request." The chain demon said in a deep voice.
"Well, since you are so anxious to die, I have to satisfy you." The bloody mage's face turned cold, and for a moment, the water magic elements in the channel surged.
The next moment, blood turned into torrents, spurting out from all parts of the chain demon's body, and his body quickly shriveled up, and his skin became loose. Only the nearby chains remained the same.
Soon, seeing that the chain demon's aura weakened, and the blood pouring out of his body was enough to fill the nearby passage, the Scarlet Mage finally stopped.
"It's useless." As the Scarlet Mage stopped, the aura of the chained demon returned to its original state in a very short period of time, and his body also became full again under the influence of an inexplicable force, as if it had lost the blood that filled the entire channel.
, did not have any impact on him at all, "Don't bother, even the greedy king can't kill me, you are just wasting your mana."
Seeing this, the Scarlet Mage could only put down his hands helplessly. He did not believe what the Chain Demon said, but if he continued to increase his mana, it would most likely attract the attention of those mages.
"Okay, it seems you didn't come here to die... Why don't you tell me, what is your real purpose?" The Scarlet Mage snorted, seeming to be extremely dissatisfied that his spell didn't work, and then asked. p>
"Of course, take me away from this hellish place. I don't want to be locked up here by those mages anymore to do their magic research." As if he thought of something, the chain demon was slightly angry, with a little fear in it.
It seems that what those mages did to him still remains deeply in his heart.
Listening to the Chain Demon's suggestion, the Scarlet Mage fell into deep silence for a while.
According to the master's order, their mission is to bring the hero's remains back to Crulod, and what the Scarlet Mage has to do is to provide protection in secret and try not to let them be discovered by the mage.
If they are allowed to follow the Chain Demon, it will add many risks to their actions, and they may even be exposed. But if they reject the Chain Demon's proposal, what awaits them and their party will be exposed now.
After thinking for a while, the Scarlet Mage had no other choice and could only say: "I need to tell the master about this matter and let him make the decision..."
However, when the Chain Demon heard this sentence, his expression suddenly changed: "I know who the master you are talking about is, he is with the Greedy King! You can't tell him this matter, otherwise, those mages will
I’ll find you soon!”
Sensing the threat of the chain demon, the Scarlet Mage finally chose to compromise and prioritize completing the mission: "Okay... if you dare to do anything detrimental to us, even if you are exposed in the end, you will be exposed."
, my spell will also make your life worse than death."
Seeing that the Scarlet Mage agreed to his proposal, the Chain Demon's eyes also showed a bit of excitement. He had been locked up in Brakada's prison for too long, and he found such an opportunity to escape.
Won't give it up.
Soon, he and the Scarlet Mage followed the tunnel dug by the cavemen and arrived on the ground outside the city.
