In the darkness, a person walked slowly.
The man was wearing armor, and except for his face, his entire body was covered with iron plates forged from fine iron.
Like a heavy iron man!
This set of armor weighs at least dozens of kilograms, and combined with the weight of the human body, it is at least two or three hundred kilograms.
However, when the other party walked over, he looked no different from an ordinary person, and even seemed more agile.
"good."
Looking at Carl, he nodded and said with satisfaction: "The life force is abundant, reaching the limit of an advanced knight. No wonder he wants life potions. The people who came down this time finally look decent."
"Captain Bernard!" Xiao Nan recognized him and said hurriedly, "We are here to exchange supplies. What are you doing?"
“Bang!”
Before he could finish his words, a whip came out of the darkness and knocked him to the ground.
The soldier put away his whip and snorted coldly:
"Did you get to speak?"
Karl’s face darkened, and his eyes quickly scanned the entire venue.
There are thirteen soldiers, most of whom are wearing half-armor. They can serve in the city guards, and even if they are not knight squires, their strength will not be bad.
Four black dogs.
This is a kind of ferocious beast domesticated by the city guards.
They are as big as leopards, with hair as hard as needles, amazing strength and speed, and ferocious temperaments. Several of them can besiege a full-time knight.
besides……
Captain Barnard.
He is a knight, and he was an official knight many years ago.
He was suddenly surrounded by heavy troops. Although he was strong, he had no power to resist and his eyelids twitched wildly.
City Guards...
It would be fine if they didn't give anything, but looking at the current situation, they are actually forcibly detaining people who want to exchange supplies!
"Push it down."
Bernard waved his hand: "Carl, right? If you survive, you can apply to join the city guard. You will be given plenty of life potions."
“Clatter…”
A group of soldiers surrounded them, and one of them pointed forward with a spear in his hand:
"Walk!"
"What on earth are you going to do?" Xiaonan struggled to stand up and roared angrily again.
“Bang!”
The soft whip came.
"I told you to go, so why are you talking so much nonsense?"
Karl stepped forward to help Xiaonan up, shook his head to indicate that they should not resist for the time being, and walked forward along the passage.
Strangely, the city guards did not confiscate the weapons of the three men, nor did they intend to search them. They just urged them to move forward.
"Uncle."
Leon had the shadow seal, which made him see the night as day. He was more familiar with the location of the underground tunnel and whispered, "This is the direction to Pit No. 2."
“Bang!”
In the darkness, the whip came again accurately, hitting Leon's back, accompanied by a cold reprimand.
"Be quiet!"
"Um!"
Leon groaned, beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.
Pit No. 2? Karl's heart was slightly moved. The reason for the unrest in Black City during this period was the outbreak of Yin Qi in Pit No. 2. Could the detention of himself and others be related to this?
The mine tunnel was pitch black, and one could only vaguely see figures ahead.
At regular intervals, there would be a torch stuck on the stone wall, illuminating an area and indicating the way.
Thanks to his strong mental power, Carl can remember the path he has taken even with his eyes closed.
'We adjusted our direction seven times in total, passing through three inhabited caves, one of which contained various supplies.'
'There are two or three people guarding each intersection.'
'What are the city guards going to do?'
"arrive!"
The soldier raised his voice and pushed the three people to an open area, where dozens of busy miners came into view.
“Ding Dong…”
"Bang!"
The miners held pickaxes and swung them at the walls, causing sparks to fly from time to time. Some people squatted on the ground to rest.
Seeing several people coming in, they all cast their glances over.
"Is there someone else coming?"
"Let them go in and explore the way first!"
“I wonder how long this batch can last?”
“…”
The miners were whispering to each other, looking at Carl and the other two with cold eyes, as if they were looking at dead people.
"What you have to do is simple."
The soldier leading the way shouted, "Explore the way and dig a hole!"
He pointed to the narrow passage ahead and said, "When it reaches the end, you can leave."
This is to treat yourself as a miner.
No! Not a miner.
A miner!
* * * The passage is narrow, some places can only accommodate one person, while some places are much more spacious.
But it is precisely the most spacious places that are the most dangerous.
Leon held up the torch for lighting, Xiaonan walked in front with a shield in both hands, and Carl followed closely behind.
"Just let us explore the way?"
Xiaonan muttered, "You didn't even say there would be any danger!"
"careful."

Carl's eyelids moved slightly, and the broadsword in his hand struck out from the side, nailing something to the stone wall with a sharp sound of breaking through the air.
After modifying the Giant Spirit Breathing Technique, the keen perception brought by the Poison Wolf Breathing Technique did not disappear, but was strengthened instead.
Or rather...
Giant Spirit Breathing improves all aspects of the body, including the perception of danger.
"Black lizard?"
Xiaonan looked at the corpse on the stone wall, his face darkened: "It turned out to be this kind of thing!"
"Uncle." Leon explained:
"The black lizard is a poisonous insect. Although it is not very powerful, it is extremely poisonous. Once licked by its tongue, even a knight will feel uncomfortable. Without medicine, he will surely die."
"Um."
Carl nodded:
"Go slowly, there's no rush."
"yes."
Xiaonan swallowed and continued forward carefully.
Three people behind.
"interesting."
One of them was holding a machete and squinting at Carl:
"This man is very powerful. I'm afraid the speed at which he drew his sword just now is almost as fast as that of a formal knight."
"yes."
A burly woman with a scar on her face nodded: "With the addition of another expert, it will be safer for us to explore the road next time."
"snort!"
Someone snorted:
"What's the use of being strong? You'll still be used as a servant by the city guards and die in the end!"
There was silence in the field.
There was helplessness in the eyes of several people.
"It's better to die late than early. Live one day at a time. If you are tired of living, you can rebel against the city guards."
Someone said disdainfully: "If you dare, I admire you!"
"when……"
The sound of a violent collision interrupted the voices of several people. A figure in front of them swayed and the sword light suddenly became brighter.
"puff!"
“Puff!”
There was a series of sounds of sharp weapons cutting flesh and blood.
When everyone arrived, they saw the ground full of corpses of red-eyed giant rats, more than a dozen of them.
The red-eyed giant rat is a ferocious beast that lives in groups. It is as big as a small wild boar and is much stronger than the rat group controlled by the rat girl.
now.
They were powerless against Carl.
“Crack!”
Carl sheathed his sword and looked at the people behind him: "It's your turn now."
"Yes." Scar Woman nodded and urged:
"Sandy, it's your turn."
At the same time, he took a step forward and said enthusiastically:
"Brother Carl, I am Jacqueline of the Wind Whisperer."
"Whisperer of the Wind?"
Carl's eyes moved slightly:
"Is there anyone still alive in this organization?"
The base of the Wind Whisperers is near Pit No. 2, and it is said that everyone was swept in when the Yin energy erupted.
Rumor has it outside that no one is spared!
"have."
Jacqueline clenched her hands subconsciously and said with a wry smile, "We were indeed affected by the Yin Qi, but not all of us have died. However, if the city guards take advantage of the situation to rob..."
"That's not necessarily the case."
