452 Who is your master

Luo Ning looked for the entrance to the dungeon all the way from the suburban streets of the empire’s main city. Just don’t go too smoothly.

There were even signs on the ground to guide him.

Although those road signs hanging on the streets pointing in all directions are most likely just mere signposts.

However, for Luo Ning, who came to the main city of the empire for the first time, or even attacked the main city of the empire at night…isn’t it a bit too easy?

As if something was leading him.

When Luo Ning entered the city, he clearly felt that he had broken some kind of defensive magic, but it had no effect at all. The guards surrounding the city walls were more like decorations, and they did not notice the arrival of Luo Ning, an uninvited guest. Although Luo Ning felt strange, he didn’t think much about it.

Follow the road signs all the way forward.

Luo Ning did not go very far.

He stopped in front of the dungeon called ‘Elan Convict’s Asylum’.

With the striking red-letter wooden sign and the bottomless underground passage, Luo Ning stood at the entrance of the dungeon and thought for a while. The walls here have been decayed and slag, and the huge dungeon door has no half-person handle.

It even opened directly, as if to welcome Luo Ning’s entry.

This reminded Luo Ning of the one he encountered in the Holy See of Light before. Capturing Maria and Nicole was not just to lure snakes out of their holes, right?

Although they did have such a purpose, it could only be to attract the old king of Yilan City to surrender.

It should have nothing to do with Luo Ning.

Even if the empire wanted to do this, it was impossible to count on Luo Ning.

Few people in the entire human continent know Luo Ning’s identity and power, and it is even more impossible for these distant imperial people to know. Therefore, Luo Ning felt that he was just thinking too much.

Furthermore, even if this was a trap specially prepared for Luo Ning, Luo Ning would choose to step into it. In order not to frighten the snake, he chose the low-key approach of insurance.

But if no one could be found, Luo Ning wouldn’t mind turning this place upside down. Luo Ning waved to Bai Yulong, then walked in on his own.

Since the white feather dragon needs to cover the whole body with invisibility magic, Luo Ning specially told it to stay half a meter away from him and not touch Luo Ning. But this dragon is very cowardly, so big is blind.

It abruptly formed itself into a ball, Luo Ning took a step, and Bai Yulong rolled forward. Luo Ning was too lazy to take care of this little coward.

He descended all the way down the long, dark steps.

“You all live in the villages around King Yilan City, right?” In the dim cell, silver moonlight fell in from the narrow iron window. Anxiety and fear spread here.

Even in the middle of the night, it is difficult to fall asleep. “you are……?”

The old man grabbed the cold iron bars and tried his best to squeeze his eyes through the gap, struggling to identify the woman in the prison next door.

The woman sat on the slate covered with hay and sighed wearily.

“His Majesty the King wants me to come out to investigate, and then sneak you into the safe royal city. However, the speed of the Imperial Army is too fast, and I am one step behind.” The woman is tall and tall, with brown hair and brown eyes, and can’t see any characteristics. .

The old man looked at Maria in disbelief. “Are you…. Santa Zemaria College’s…. Maria?”

Considering that the other party was only detained today and was detained in the same prison as them, the old man quickly recognized the other party’s identity.

In fact, Maria’s appearance is very recognizable. She is the principal of the highest academy in the entire Yilan Kingdom, and is a close confidant of His Majesty the King. She can be regarded as a celebrity in the Yilan Kingdom.

Maria shook her head and looked at the moonlight outside the window.

“Whether it’s a principal or a civilian, I’m the same as you. As long as I’m locked here, it’s the bargaining chip that the Crotal Empire will use to negotiate with the Kingdom of Ilan…” Maria’s eyes revealed this helplessness. and remorse.

“I’m still too reckless…”

Maria muttered, her eyes swept across the dozens of cells.

She felt that her life was on the line, and it didn’t matter if she was executed here. But there are also many women and children of the Elan Kingdom detained here, and these children are innocent. But even so, Maria still hoped that His Majesty the King could deal with it rationally and not be reckless like her. After all, there are tens of thousands of lives in the royal city that need to be guarded.

“Master Principal, if you are imprisoned here…then the king and the city owner…” “Your Majesty is safe for the time being.”

Maria’s eyes were filled with apology.

“And please don’t blame Your Majesty…””

In fact, the people of the empire have been outside the King City of Yilan for some time. Maria and the king who started at the beginning thought they just wanted to break the barrier and enter inside. After discussions within the royal city, everyone agreed that it should be left alone.

The original witch’s enchantment cannot be easily broken by the magic of the empire, even if it is broken, once the brave intervenes, the army sent by the empire will undoubtedly be defeated.

However, they later learned from the merchants who transmitted the supplies that the empire was not only trying to break the barrier, but they were even arresting the villagers in the surrounding villages of Yilan King City. After Maria heard this kind of news, she knew that there was a ghost who wanted to step on her legs.

Even if you can only bring back some villagers, or you can only ask for some information.

Maria took the soldiers of the royal city out of the city recklessly. Before reaching the first village, she was imprisoned by the dormant imperial soldiers and brought here. “Hey…how can we blame His Majesty the King…”

The white-haired old man let out a sigh of relief, and his old face became even older.

“The kingdom of Yilan, a strange and kind name, is now shackled by the empire, the kingdom has become a royal city, and the culprit who deprives us of our hometown is the imperial city full of ambition under our feet. Although we face the loess and turn our backs to the sky , are the most marginal people, but we are not stupid!”

The old man clenched his fists with both hands, and there was a gleam of determination in his eyes.

Maria was a little moved.

The common people of the Elan Kingdom, even if they are imprisoned in the dungeon deep in the enemy’s depths, even if their bodies are trembling with fear, their will is not shaken. The hearts of the people are resolute, so what reason does the Kingdom of Elan have to fear?

“Sorry, the Kingdom of Elan is not capable of protecting you…but, I believe, we will become stronger, and under the oppression of the empire, the Kingdom of Elan will eventually stand up!” Maria’s eyes flashed With tears in her eyes, her clenched fist couldn’t help shaking.

“Maria-sama, the village chief grandpa is right. You don’t have the slightest blame for His Majesty’s decision. You don’t need to say sorry. Protecting your kingdom is what citizens should do…”

“So, we should protect our kingdom, not let the kingdom protect us.” Beside Maria, in the cell next to her, the girl’s trembling voice came from the corner. Maria touched the tears in the corners of her eyes, trying to keep a gentle expression on her face. She took a deep breath and suppressed the emotion in her heart.

After taking a few steps forward, Maria found that the girl looked only in her teens. The fluffy ears on the top of the girl’s head are very eye-catching, it should be an orc.

“What’s your name?”

Maria had a gentle smile on her face, and wanted to reach out and touch the girl’s hair to comfort her, but the gap between the bars was not big enough for her to stretch her hand through. “My name is Nicole….Maria-sama.”

Nicole raised her cowardly eyes and whispered.

“I am a slave from Xicheng…I was adopted by my grandmother and live in a village outside Yilan King City.” Nicole said timidly. “Xicheng…”

In my impression, such orc slaves are indeed popular in Xicheng. The number of slaves in the entire city almost covers one-third of the city’s residents. This point can be regarded as a characteristic of Xicheng.

When the Kingdom of Elan was not occupied by the empire, Xicheng was indeed a city belonging to the Kingdom of Elan.

However, what surprised Maria a little was that the orcs who were treated as slaves by Xicheng actually loved their own country… Thinking of this, Maria’s nose twitched and she raised her hand to touch her tears.

She asked Kitten again.

“I just heard you and the village chief say, waiting for the most important person?”…Well, Nicole is waiting for the master. “Nicole nodded and said:

“Three months ago, it was the master who rescued Nicole from the West City so that Nicole could be reborn.” Maria rubbed the tip of her sore nose and said again.

“Your master must be a good man with a benevolent heart. There are not many people who are willing to take slaves out of the West City… Is your master an adventurer?” “No… The master said he was not an adventurer.”

“What would that be?”

For some reason, Maria began to care a little. Intuition made her heart pound faster.

“The master said he was just a traveler.” “The traveler…”

Maria is no stranger to the term.

Three months ago, traveler, from the west city to the king city of Yilan…… All these keywords point to the same person.

“Your master’s name is…”

“His name is Luo…” “Ning.”

“Boom–!!”

A violent explosion sounded from the end of the dungeon.

The blasted gravel flew out more than ten meters away, and the stone rolled on the ground and fell to the periphery of the iron gate. A warm fire shone through the blasted doorway.

The sudden bright light made it difficult to adapt for a while.

“Someone robbed!!”

“The other party is a great magician!! Quick, call for reinforcements!!” “Reinforcements are coming, stop him first!!”

“boom–!!”

The first explosion was to blow open the brick door, and the second explosion was accompanied by screams. What sputtered was no longer gravel, but even fresh blood.

The bright red blood mixed with the sewage of the dungeon, flowing on the ground with a stench.

There was only one scream, and in the blink of an eye, the magic killed the soldiers guarding the dungeon before the pain spread. This is probably the only kindness of the ‘Great Mage’.
