From Skeleton Soldiers to King of the Undead - Chapter 172 Hal in distress
Roja and the Lich teleported to the entrance of the Sea Beast Corridor.
The barrier here had originally disappeared, but Roja later discovered that it could be re-blocked with the key of Sage Fels.
Before creating the rotting corpse infection on the 25th floor, he first searched along the waterways on each floor and used the key’s induction to find an escape route beyond the sea monster corridor.
As a result, a hidden tunnel leading to the outskirts of Orario was found at the bottom of the river on the 29th floor.
If one day the Adventurer’s Guild discovers anomalies in the Sea Beast Corridor, he can also leave the underground maze through the hidden tunnel.
“Bo.”
With a soft sound, Roja used the key to open the barrier emitting white fluorescence. After passing through, he used the key to close it again.
This barrier exists at the river entrances and exits on each floor, preventing monsters and adventurers from moving between floors through the river.
Entering the Sea Beast Corridor, even if you leave the scope of the underground labyrinth, both the suppression of strength and the restrictions on teleportation have disappeared.
Well, just a few days have passed and it has already become like this…
At this time, what was in front of Roja’s eyes was a blue channel covered by solid ice.
The lake-blue ice wall exudes a faint brilliance, illuminating the entire passage, and countless transparent ice cubes float up and down in the sea water.
The second territory, the Sea Beast Corridor, has now been completely transformed into a gorgeous underwater ice cave.
Countless snow-white frost undead souls swam silently among them like ghosts, their azure eyes as cold as gems.
If anyone else enters here by mistake, they may think that they have arrived in a terrifying ghost world full of monsters.
In less than a month, territory effects such as resurrection and strengthening will be available here.
“Buzz——”
There was no need to stay, the Lich opened the portal again.
After several teleportations, Roja returned to the dilapidated church.
It was night, and Hal should rest in a hotel in the town.
‘Go and call Hal over. ’
He put away his armor and changed back into ordinary clothes and bandages.
Under his command, the young dragon turned into an afterimage and rushed out of the church, quickly flying towards the town.
However, when the sparrow possessed by the young dragon enters the hotel where Hal lives, he finds that he is not in the room.
I searched several times in hotels, pubs and other places but couldn’t find it.
Where are people?
Roja frowned in his heart and felt something was wrong.
“Boom!”
The young dragon smashed the window and jumped on the hotel proprietress lying on the bed in the room, staring with golden eyes and letting out a ferocious growl.
“Ho–“
The middle-aged woman opened her eyes and was about to scream in terror when she saw the little monster jumping on her body.
However, before she could cry out, she saw the young dragon’s golden eyes filled with demonic brilliance, and immediately entered a hypnotized unconscious state.
The young dragon bent his neck, his cold eyes almost touching the woman’s eyes, and spoke slowly in a low and hoarse voice:
“Where is Hal? The black-haired kid who lives here?”
The hotel proprietress’s eyes were dull and she answered unconsciously:
“I heard that he had a fight with the adventurers of the Wind Team in the tavern the day before yesterday and was captured…”
From this woman’s mouth, Roja learned the general story of what happened:
Today at noon, while Hal was eating in the tavern, he saw an adventurer from the Windrush team touching the tavern owner’s daughter, so he stepped forward and scolded him to stop him.
A conflict naturally broke out between the two sides. After Hal beat the opponent to the ground in a single fight, the captain of the Storm Team took action and knocked him down.
Afterwards, the adventurers beat up the young man who had lost his ability to fight. Finally, they dragged Hal away who was knocked unconscious and took him to an unknown location.
Oh shit!
Roja felt a little annoyed.
That kid is so nosy, why don’t you think about your level first?
The young dragon continued to ask in a hoarse voice: “Where are those adventurers now?”
“They… should be staying in the mayor’s courtyard on the far west side of the town now…”
…
At the far west end of the coastal town, there is a courtyard surrounded by a circle of coconut trees.
This is the residence prepared by the mayor of the town for the Gale Team who are fighting against the Bipedal Dragon.
At this time, a bonfire was burning in the middle of the courtyard.
The eight adventurers of the Gale Team were gathering together to drink, barbecue, and laugh constantly.
There are five men and three women. Except for the captain and the vice-captain, who are level three adventurers, the others are all level two adventurers.
The crusade mission has been successfully completed, they did not suffer any casualties, and the rewards have been received. It is time to spend money and have fun.
Most of the adventurers active in the upper areas are ordinary people like them who aim to make money, and there is no essential difference between them and mercenaries.
On the other side of the yard, a dirty black-haired boy was tied tightly to a coconut tree. It was Hal who was captured, imprisoned and beaten.
His face was covered in bruises and his facial features were so deformed that his original appearance was completely unrecognizable.
During the few hours he was imprisoned, he was tied to a tree and the adventurers beat him from time to time.
Imprisoning and beating others is certainly illegal.
But with the strength of the Gale Team, it was enough to run sideways in this small town, so naturally no one dared to say anything.
When powerful adventurers do this kind of thing blatantly, even the mayor and the sheriff of the town can only turn a blind eye.
“Haha, brat, are you okay?” a tall and thin man asked with a smile.
He slowly approached the black-haired boy with an iron stick for skewering meat in his hand, with a malicious look in his eyes.
Hal cursed in a hoarse voice: “You scum among adventurers!”
“Scum? Haha, I’m laughing so hard.”
The man showed a joking expression, “Is it none of your business if I touch a woman’s butt? Why do you need an outsider to interfere in your own business? Huh? Do you have to ask for trouble?”
Hal glared at the man and said, “Because she is the daughter of the tavern owner and she clearly doesn’t want to, you scumbag!”
“Are you trying to be a hero? My little friend, have you heard too many stories?”
“With your little ability, you still dare to show off?”
The tall and thin man sneered, “Do you believe I will cut off your hands and feet and throw you into the sea?”
He poked the boy’s shoulder hard with the iron pick, and the tip of the iron pick immediately turned red.
The man was the one who initially fought hand to hand with the boy, but Hal threw him to the ground within two seconds.
In the end, the stronger captain took action and Hal was easily knocked to the ground.
“Harland! You can take care of him later, and come over for a drink first!” The man’s companion smiled and waved him over.
“The post-dinner exercise in a while will continue to teach you a lesson, so just wait.”
Harland sneered at the boy again and returned to the dining table.
