Just when a group of professionals from the Demon Slayer Legion were preparing to gang up on the three unlucky guys who had been abandoned by their teammates, Omas, who was far away in the sewers of the ruins of Jikul, suddenly opened his eyes with a pale face.
He suddenly tore off the connection line that infused Jidebin with mana, and shouted at the top of his voice outside the secret room.
"Hera! Quick! Come to me!"
Heratli, who was injecting magic power into the newly forged wave-edge sword, heard Omas's panicked shouts and immediately stopped what he was doing and quickly rushed out of the secret room.
"What's wrong? Lord Omus? What makes you so panicked?"
"There is no time to explain! Let all the people start packing their bags immediately, try to pack as lightly as possible, and throw away all the unnecessary things! We must leave here immediately!"
Omus said quickly to Heratli with a worried look on his face.
"What? This...why?"
Heratili was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes widened with a look of extreme confusion on his face.
Since they arrived in Jikul, under the protection of Gidbin, they have been able to escape safely no matter how the devil searches the ruins, but now Omas, who was the first to propose taking refuge here, actually said that he would leave here immediately?
And at this time?
Heratli swore that if it had not been Omas who said this, he would have smashed it with a blacksmith's hammer.
"Don't ask anymore! We don't have time! Hurry up, hurry up! Go!" Omus's face became even more anxious, and he almost pushed and chased Heratli out of the secret room.
Monk Zhang Er was confused by Heratili's order to Omas, but the prestige accumulated by this riddle monk among the people of Kurast Seaport over the years and his previous experience of successfully avoiding the destruction of the seaport convinced him.
I still chose to believe what Omas said.
So Heratli immediately rushed to the gathering point of survivors in the sewer and began to convey Omus' orders everywhere.
Thanks to his efforts, although many survivors could not quite understand why they suddenly wanted to leave here, out of their trust in Omas, they immediately began to pack up their few remaining belongings and began to return to Omus.
Gather at the location indicated by Mars.
"Omas asked us to evacuate here? Did he say why?" In a thatched hut, the alchemist Eco, his apprentice Fred and Lugoin's alchemist Lysander were brewing and preparing to be sent to the front line.
The potion, Heratli's sudden intrusion and the strange orders he sent made Eco frown.
"Lord Omas didn't say anything, but he was very anxious and wanted us to do it as quickly as possible." Heratili shook his head and said.
"It seems that the old monster has 'seen' something again. Anyway, let's set off quickly. Follow his orders and only bring light and useful things."
Eco nodded, and the expression on his face became serious.
Several people quickly extinguished the fire under the crucible, and then each began to pack their things quickly.
With the help of Heratli and the two alchemists who came to help, soon all the Kurast residents in the sewer gathered at the entrance of a sewer passage.
Omas was already waiting there with a golden scepter in his hand. When he saw everyone gathered, he said nothing, but waved his long staff worriedly, signaling for them to follow him.
"Lord Omus, the exit is on the other side!" Seeing that Omus was walking in the wrong direction, Heratli, who was following him, couldn't help but remind him.
"You can't go out of the exit! That leads to the devil's throat!" Omus growled with a livid face.
"What?!" Heratiel was shocked. What did this sentence mean? Could it be that the demons had already found them and were waiting for them outside the exit?
"Omas, where's Gidbin? Didn't you bring it with you?" Eco, on the other side, walked forward quickly with the support of his apprentice, while frowning and asking Omus in a low voice.
"It's too late! It's too time-consuming to transfer Gidbin! We can't continue to rely on its protection!"
"Already abandoned Gidbin?! Ormus! What on earth did you see?!" Hearing his answer, Lysander on the other side couldn't help but asked in shock.
"The dark wolf is walking through the forest, its mouth is wide open and it is biting into the heart of the harbor!
If we're all dead, what's the use of Gideon?
Even if Kurast Harbor is successfully recovered, it will only be a city that has lost its ‘heart’!”
Omus's face was tense, and no one around him had ever seen such a nervous look on the legendary mage's face.
Thinking back to what he just said, the two alchemists and magic craftsmen fell silent.
For a moment, the only sounds left in the quiet underground waterway were the sounds of people rushing quickly and the heavy breathing of the survivors.
Almost at the same time that Omas led all the Kurast survivors into the complicated pipe network of the sewers, in the jungle outside the ruins of Jikul, a large number of sheep-headed demons suddenly emerged from the trees.
.
They barked lowly and surrounded the entire city of Jikul under the command of the Evil Contractors. A legendary Evil Contractor wearing a dark green cloak led a large group of sheep-headed demons and four other legendary Evil Contractors.
The deeds walked toward the city together.
"Lord Foxwolf, are you sure that the remnants of Kurast are hiding in this city? But why don't I notice any signs of human existence here?"
When they walked to the center of Jikul City, an Amazon Legendary Evil Contractor holding a spear asked in a slightly doubtful tone like the green cloak beside her. Judging from her eyebrows and the weapon in her hand, this person was not the one before.
Who is Sheen who was severely tricked by Storm Queen Sarah with bait on the border battlefield?
And the guy in green robe standing next to her was obviously the fox wolf who was defeated by Hodge on the border battlefield and retreated into the jungle.
"Oh, I don't know if you have noticed. When the city of Kurast was breached by the seaport, others seized many good things in the city and presented them to the Demon God as gifts. However, among the things seized, there was only one missing item.
A leisurely chuckle came from under the fox wolf's light green cloak.
"Um... a city-protecting sacred object? Isn't that kind of thing difficult to move? Do you think those remnants brought it here?"
Xian frowned and said in disbelief.
"The leader of Kurast Harbor, the 'Riddle Monk' Omas, is no ordinary person. It is said that his original prototype once made the three demon gods salivate, and they wanted to seize it for themselves.
.....”
The fox wolf began to turn his head and look around. While observing everywhere, he casually explained to Sheen who was standing aside.
"I've heard of this too, but what does this have to do with what you said before?"
"Okay, don't ask anymore. Go and remove the sewer manhole cover. We'll find out after we go down to find out... But if that guy's original prototype ability is really so amazing, we will probably pounce this time.
Is it empty?"
The fox wolf seemed to have discovered something. He shook his head and did not answer Sheen's question. He simply pointed to a manhole cover on the street and asked a few sheep-headed demons to move the manhole cover with metal patterns away.
Then, while muttering softly to himself, he descended into the dark sewer first...
