Dungeons

There was no good natural harbor near the island, so the anchor had to be dropped first, and the knights had to go ashore to drive piles and nail chains to secure the warship before they could land.

Some people were left to guard the boat, while Alex and others who were the first to land had already cleared out all the demons wandering around the shore.

Seeing the tall and dilapidated city walls, many people couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

"Goddess, this height is about 1 angdo, right?" Uri said with a ridiculous look on his face.

Looking from a distance, it seems normal, but only when you actually walk to the foot of the city wall do you realize how ridiculous its height is.

Cheryl jumped over broken bricks of the wall, each as big as she was, and asked, "Who built this? How did they build it?"

Bibidai put his axe behind him and pointed at the tall figure in the distance: "I guess those giants built it?"

Alex drew his sword and stepped over the weeds, saying, "In the history of the Eastern Continent, there should have been native giants, but now they are all extinct."

Only in the mixed demon genes can we see traces of their past existence.

Elena jumped onto the dragon's back and said, "I'll take people to deal with those big guys first, and I'll leave the rest to you!"

Alex: “Be careful.”

"Ha, what are you talking about?" She and the black dragon quickly soared into the sky, followed by a neatly arranged team of dragon riders.

Alex looked at the demons that gathered in front of him and let out terrifying roars, and calmly ordered: "Keep the formation, explore in your respective directions and clear obstacles at the same time. No casualties are allowed. Use signal flares and plaques to report the situation regularly."

"yes!!!"

The knights in the rear responded in unison, split into three groups under the leadership of their respective captains, and set out in three directions.

Alex was leading the Chuone team. He was originally walking in the front. When he heard the order, the newly trained young knights came in front of him. He let them lead the way as a practical training, while he personally watched over them to prevent any accidents.

Alex's habit is not to attack demons that don't rush towards them. But all the demons he encountered along the way rushed towards them with murderous intent. This made it easier, and he didn't need to hold back.

He had been to this place before. As an island civilization, it was not small. The area of ​​Human Slave Island was about one-fourth the size of Qiu Ne. On this island, there were three countries that maintained a balance of power.

Looking at the ruins of collapsed houses passing by, he could basically identify which country the buildings were from. In fact, the environments of the three countries were similar, with only slight differences in the patterns and styles.

They landed at dawn, and in less than a day, they cleared out all the demons on the entire island.

The few flying monsters in the sky were also knocked down. Elena left a few dragon riders to patrol the sky.

However, they killed all the demons and did not see any trace of humans.

Alex thought for a while and ordered: "Carefully search for all available clues and report to me in detail."

If there were no humans on this island, they would not be able to stay here for too long. They only had two days and they had to reach the East Continent as soon as possible.

Alex led the search team to rest for a while and then they came back.

"Sir, there is something unusual ahead. Commander Elena wants you to go over there."

Alex immediately led his men over there.

Elena stood in front of a tall forest. When Alex arrived, she said, "The demons rarely come near this place, so it is well preserved. There are many neat farmlands and wild fruit trees in it."

She took Alex in, and just as she said, there was a lake in the center of this area surrounded by trees. There were freshwater fish in the lake, and there were farmlands and wild fruit trees beside the lake.

Alex walked to the fruit tree, picked a fruit, looked at it, then lowered his head and frowned.

Elena smiled and said, "So you also feel something is wrong, right?"

Veronica asked, "What's wrong?"

Alex said: "There are too few fruits falling from the tree. The shape and color of the fruits are very good. They don't look like they are wild."

Elena snapped her fingers and said, "Yes, the farmland has also been turned over. There are seeds inside. Someone is planting things on it, and it was quite recently."

Cheryl came over with a bunch of small black fruits. She said to Alex, "I found this. It grew on the trees on the outskirts of the forest. There were so many of them that they fell all over the ground."

Alex sniffed it and said, "This is a fruit that emits the disgusting aroma of the demons."

To humans, it smells just a bit spicy.

This is also what the humans on this island told him when he came here before.

Wu Rui stepped down from the tall tree and said, "I looked around carefully, and there was really no one in sight."

Standing behind Alex, Kumpewu pondered: "Why is there no one here when there are signs of human habitation?"

"Because we are right here...you just can't see us..."

A timid male voice suddenly interrupted them.

The people behind Alex all drew their swords and pulled up with full vigilance.

Chijian yelled, "What the hell is that? Come out and let me see it!"

Alex's expression remained unchanged as he quietly spread his perception over a wide area.

However, the next second.

In front of them, a group of people appeared out of nowhere, standing by the lake.

The leader was three or four demons.

From the moment they appeared, he could not sense their presence.

Alex's pupils shrank slightly as he saw a familiar figure in the crowd.

"Lexia?"

The black-skinned, white-haired demon girl smiled, revealing her white teeth. "It's me. Long time no see."

Elena asked Alex, "Were they the mixed-bloods you saved on the battlefield?"

"Yes." Alex looked at Liesha, smiled and tightened his grip on the sword. He asked, "Why are you here?"

He looked at the man standing in front of her. He had long, fine black hair that looked like a handful of ink, soft, snow-white fur on his arms, a long, light tail behind him, fox-like ears on both sides of his head, a slender, tall figure, and a beautiful face that made people's heart beat faster. He was a male demon.

The other person's blue eyes blinked at him lightly, and she said expressionlessly: "I asked Lixia to come and help me. I need her."

Alex felt that a face like that would be very deceptive when smiling, but the other party responded calmly, showing a hint of wariness, which reminded him of someone.

Elena curled her lips: "So, you are her master?"

Fei Leng said, "She is my family." He then turned to Alex and said, "I asked her not to tell you about me first."

Alex swallowed his hesitation and looked him up and down for a while: "...So it was you who saved those people?"

"yes."

Alex: "So you specifically asked us to find them so we can place them and protect them."

"Yes." Fei Leng paused, "Liexia told me the situation, thank you."

His tone was a little cold, but one could tell that his thanks were sincere.

Alex suddenly said, "You speak Chuuni quite well."

Fei Leng: "...I asked Lie Xia to teach me."

Alex didn't dwell on this point. He asked again, "You too...?"

Fei Leng: "I am my mother's child. I don't have any power. I can only save some people because of her favor."

The "mother" here probably refers to the birth of the devil.

Alex asked, "Did you come here early to protect these people?"

Deep blue eyes looked directly into his golden eyes: "Yes."

Alex looked at him for a long time, and his expression softened: "Thank you for your hard work."

As soon as I said this, my chest felt like it was being poured with something boiling hot.

Fei Leng looked at him strangely: "...It's okay."

For some reason, he has always had a one-sided prejudice against Alex.

They also fought each other several times on the battlefield.

They both remembered that memory from the past.

Even the fact that he has this memory may be due to his influence.

But the other party didn't know his identity.

Only then did he finally understand what Inger meant by those words.

Fei Leng asked one last time: "What are you doing here?"

Alex put away his weapon, and smiled softly, "Just like you, I am trying to save people. It's really amazing that I have managed to hold on until now."

Fei Lengshen exhaled, "Let's go, I'll take you to the underground city."

Alex looked at Elena, they raised their hands together, and all the knights behind them put away their swords.

They left a few people to pass on the message to other teams. They took the people to follow Fei Leng first.

Fei Leng was accompanied by Lixia, Kate, and Duper who had just started to speak. Apart from them, the rest were basically humans.

Not only did they not reject them as demons, they even followed their lead.

None of them spoke easily.

Fei Leng led them through the woods to the ruins of a dilapidated tower covered with vines. In the middle of the ruins, he lifted the large stone slab covering it and opened the wooden cover.

Go down the rope ladder and you will find a huge space underground.

Guards dressed as knights stood at the door.

When he saw Fei Leng bringing people back, he immediately moved aside and spoke in the Eastern Continental language.

Alex has learned some simple words under Inger's teaching.

They seemed to be reporting some situations and words, and some words similar to people's names appeared in the middle.

Fei Leng: *"Go and inform them to gather in the discussion room."

The underground town is made up of stairs and cave-like rooms, as well as pools and squares, as well as pits for planting and breeding, drainage channels and ventilation systems. Although it is as old as a project from centuries ago, we have to admire the wisdom of mankind. All the things necessary for life are covered in this underground.

The humans and demons living inside didn't seem surprised to see unfamiliar faces, but they seemed a little surprised by their attire and stopped to watch.

Most people would greet Fei Leng first, and Fei Leng would respond in a friendly manner.

Alex ordered some of the knights to stop and guard outside the cave entrance, and brought some down and had them line up outside the conference room.

It is called a discussion room, but it is actually a bit like a theater, serving as a large conference room with a stage but no seats.

There was already a group of people waiting inside.

At the front of the crowd stood four humans with distinct temperaments.

A young-looking boy was chewing his fingernails nervously. When he saw someone coming in, he seemed startled and hid behind the woman next to him.

To be honest, this boy is about fifteen years old, and the woman next to him looks somewhat similar to him, so it can be inferred that they are siblings.

The black-haired woman with a gold hairpin rolled her eyes and pushed the boy back with her hand.

The boy came up again, gnashing his teeth and staring at the newcomer.

Fei Leng walked over and said, "These are the surviving leaders of the three countries on the island."

"Gigi Tony's Princess, Montolia, Prince, Ajitai."

It's that woman and that boy.

Montoria had no idea what Fei Leng was saying, but when she heard her name, she nodded at him. Her calmness formed a sharp contrast with the frightened boy behind her.

A tall young man turned around. He had sapphire blue eyes, short black hair, sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, a handsome face, and a long slanting burn scar from his left forehead to his temple. He had a full knightly demeanor.

"Elaisir, the last knight guarding Soyalan."

*"Lord Fei Leng? Are these people also survivors? They don't look like they are."

*"They are the human army from the Western Continent that I mentioned. They are here to rescue us. They have already cleared out all the demons on the island."

*"Really?!" Elither couldn't help but raise his voice, and his eyes instantly flashed with hope when he looked at Alex and others.

The other person was a tall and strong man with a thick, curly red beard tied up with a rope. He was about a head taller than Elena, and his arm muscles were almost as thick as Alex's thighs.

"This is Gnu, the king of Meshes."

Fei Leng briefly introduced.

Genu asked: "Doesn't it mean that this will pollute our land?"

Fei Leng said: "It doesn't matter, they already have the means to purify it."

Genu's eyes widened: "Actually!"
