"A powerful figure?" Tormon repeated meaningfully, "Could it be a high-ranking god? Did he cripple your divine power?"
"I don't know how to answer this. In short, it's a long story!" Lin Mo said. "By the way, Brother Tormon, weren't you... After that, what happened to you? Why are you locked up here now?"
“Ha, I am a servant of the gods. The power my master bestowed upon me allows me to separate my soul from my body,” Tomon said. “You know, a master like me has ways to return to the Holy City.”
However, because I got too close to you, Boss Pu thought I had betrayed my master, so he locked me up.
Haha, it's strange, so apart from not giving me a woman, this guy didn't make things too difficult for me.
They provide food and drink, and you don't have to do any work.
Ah, those were truly comfortable days.
"Really?" Lin Mo's heart calmed down a little. "Then what happened? Why did we come to Great Xia? And why were we imprisoned here?"
"Ah..." Tomon hesitated, "To be honest, I don't really know what happened either! Anyway, I was locked in the dungeon, and they wouldn't even give me food? They were chained up like a dog."
You know, after being starving for so many days, my head was spinning from hunger, how could I remember so many things?
All I remember is that day, I fainted from hunger, the kind of fainting from sheer hunger.
When I woke up, I found myself locked in a prison van.
After that, they traveled over mountains and valleys to bring it to this prison!
"Ah..." Lin Mo frowned, "You fainted from hunger? Didn't you say that Boss Pu didn't make things difficult for you except for not giving you women? How come you're still tied up like a dog?"
"Huh? Did I say that?" Tomon stammered. "No, I don't think so! Anyway, I'm totally confused."
Lin Mo shook his head, his doubts growing heavier like a thick fog.
"Could it be that the Great Xia army has reached the Holy City?" he thought to himself. "That's a bit too outrageous!"
For a mortal to traverse that frigid land covered in ice and snow, with its biting winds, is as difficult as ascending to heaven.
Moreover, within the Holy City, divine servants are as numerous as clouds, possessing extraordinary power. Even a warrior like Xu Chu is but a drop in the ocean before them.
How could the army of Great Xia possibly contend with these servants of the gods, and how could they possibly defeat them and occupy the Holy City? The logic behind this seems impossible to justify.
At this moment, Tormon asked again, "Speaking of Lin Mo, you have a lot of clever ideas, do you have any way to get out of this awful place?"
Escape? Easier said than done.
His hands and feet were bound by heavy shackles made of the rarest fine iron in the Great Xia Dynasty.
At this moment, he has no divine power whatsoever, so how can he escape from this dungeon!
"Ha, it's okay if there's nothing we can do for now. I believe in you; you'll always find a way," Tomon reassured him.
Deep in Lin Mo's heart, those familiar yet distant names flowed like a clear spring—Qing'er, Ruoxi, Churan… Their faces, like paintings frozen in time, quietly emerged in his mind.
He couldn't help but fall into deep thought. Where were his wives who had stood by him through thick and thin? Were they well? Were they also thinking of him?
There were also Xu Chu, Bai Qi, the demonic monk Yao Guangxiao, and a host of other subordinates...
When he was captured and taken to the far north, Saladin and Bobwin's allied forces were still not eliminated. Their threat was like a sword hanging over the land of Bactria, ready to bring disaster to this land at any moment.
Meanwhile, near the capital, Constantine's army was also eyeing the city covetously.
Why!
Just as she was feeling sad, she heard a young girl's voice: "Coming to such a stinky place... it's a real disaster for a girl's skin!! Sigh~ I have no choice but to do it for work..."
Lin Mo looked up and saw a slender, short girl with fair skin, around fifteen years old, and striking short black hair emerge from the shadows outside the prison door.
"Where did this hairless little monkey come from?" Tomon's voice was full of disdain and contempt.
"Hairless?! You rude and impudent beast, you are an insult to me! You are the ape covered in parasites, no, you are a savage creature that has not yet fully evolved, a coelenterate that can only roar."
The girl responded sharply and swiftly; her words were like sharp arrows, piercing Tomon's pride.
"You...you brat, I'll skin you alive!" Tormon was instantly enraged by the girl. He angrily shook the rusty cell door, "Get here right now, I'm going to chop you up!"
"Ugh, how noisy." The girl remained unusually calm, waving her hand lightly as if shooing away an annoying fly. "I didn't come here to argue with an ape like you!"
However, Tomon's loud voice did not stop.
Before long, the jailers rushed over, cursing and swearing.
"That lunatic's itching for a beating again! Let's go! Let's all teach him a lesson! Let him learn that humans are not to be trifled with!"
"You ape-like creature, another unexpected situation? What just happened? I really shouldn't have argued with him, ah... that's not the point! How do you write down your thief's notes in this kind of situation? Ugh... where did you put them!?"
Hearing the girl's words, Lin Mo was startled.
Her words and actions are just like those of a young lady from Earth!
Could she also be a time traveler?
"Miss, can you answer a question for me? What are you here for?"
