Main Text Volume Chapter 393 The Hidden Room
When he came to this conclusion, Angel turned his head and looked around to see if there were other injured people nearby. Otherwise, where did the blood on the woman come from?
However, he saw nothing. This is a long corridor, with pitch black on both sides. Occasionally a wall lamp is burning, but the light of the wall lamp can only illuminate a range of one or two meters. Other than that, everything is dim.
Anyway, there was an illusion as a target, so Angel simply cast a light spell.
He manipulated the light technique and moved back and forth for tens of meters.
Nothing was found, and no one could be seen except the woman in front of him.
What's even more strange is that not only did Angel not find the injured person, he didn't even find any blood.
If the floor has an automatic cleaning function, that's it. But there was a lot of blood in the trajectory of the woman's movement and the ground where she lay. This means that the floor does not have the function of cleaning dirty blood or does not have the function of cleaning blood for a short period of time.
Then who is the owner of the blood stains on her body? How did she appear here so suddenly and no blood was visible elsewhere?
Angel once again observed the corridor on both sides of the window. The floor was light yellow, so the blood stains could be clearly seen. But except for the blood stains where the woman had previously hidden, the floor was clean without any stains.
Could it be that she really appeared out of thin air?
Angel walked to the place where the woman had been hiding, which was the corner by the window. There were obvious drops of blood on the floor, as well as a bloody footprint. But other than that, there are no blood spots around.
This woman was not very strong, she had just entered the junior apprentice stage at most. He would not believe that a person of this strength could use space transfer spells. But it doesn’t make sense to say that it didn’t appear out of thin air.
Did it come through the wall? That's not right. There is air outside and a drainage pipe outside. If she goes through the wall, he will definitely find it...
"Hey, is there a drainage pipe outside?"
wrong! Angel suddenly remembered something!
He walked to the window and looked outside. His eyes widened suddenly. The end of the drainage pipe was on the third floor. In other words, the drainage pipe turned inside on the third floor!
But the place where the drain pipe turns into the interior is the corridor. Where is there any place to drain water? ! Moreover, he had not found any traces of pipes in the corner before!
That's all. Angel also noticed something when he was climbing the drainage pipe.
There was a sloshing sound of liquid flowing in the drain pipe. He didn't pay attention to it at the time, but now that he thought about it, it felt very strange. The drain pipe suddenly disappeared at the three-layer wall, but where did the liquid inside come from?
Could there be a mysterious hollow place between the drainage pipe and the wall?
As soon as this thought came up, Angel was suddenly stunned.
Why can't there be a hollow place? In the bizarre wizarding world, what is impossible? Fish are flying in the sky and birds are swimming in the water. They are everywhere. It is even possible that there is a world hidden behind the mirror. How can there be a hollow place in a wall?
It is not extremely difficult for Angel himself to create a hollow place in the middle. What's more, the owner here is an official wizard!
Thinking of this, Angel let the illusion go back to the place where the woman was hiding before, and stretched out his hand to press against the wall.
Angel became one with the illusion, feeling the energy fluctuations behind the wall.
For a moment, a smile appeared on Angel's face. As he expected, the wall was engraved with expanding magic patterns, and there was indeed a room hidden in the center of the wall.
This makes sense. This woman came out of the hidden room, so there are no other blood stains except this corner.
And the "injured man" should also be in this hidden room.
Angel made the illusion look like he was going to "flex his muscles". He didn't know if anyone would notice him, but just in case, whatever Angel wanted to do, he had to let the illusion go. One process. This is done to make the "phantom's" behavior logical and avoid being discovered.
It is not difficult to enter this hidden room, just find the key points to expand the magic pattern.
As the expansion magic pattern was activated, the wall suddenly trembled, and then a faint light flashed, and the door into the hidden room was opened.
Before entering the room, Angel heard the familiar sound of sobbing.
From the moment he entered the inner world, he could hear the same cry almost every moment.
Angel made a vigilant expression and slowly opened the door.
If there is an undead inside, he must escape as quickly as possible. Although the undead might not be able to do anything to him, he had no way to deal with the undead.
But when the door was pushed open, Angel's eyes suddenly widened.
Undead? No.
There was nothing else in the room, only a large bathtub exuding steaming white air. But the steam evaporating from the bath is not water vapor, but blood steam! Because the bathtub was filled with sticky and hot blood.
If Angel turned on the purification force field at this time, he would undoubtedly be able to smell the fishy smell.
Where did the blood in the bath come from?
Tick tock, tick tock——
Drops of blood flowed from the naked body hanging above the room. On the top of the room, hooks that looked like sickles hung upside down. More than thirty naked women had sickles thrust into their chests, and blood was falling from the wounds on their chests.
Hot, fresh, and filled with strong resentment, blood dripped down into the bath.
Some of the women hanging on the sickle have died, while others are still alive, but their hearts are pierced and they are not far from death. The faint crying is the desperate groan of those who are still alive.
Angel now understands why the corpses in the pit in the cemetery all have a wound on their chests. It turns out that this is how it came about.
Thinking of the endless undead in the entire forest, Angel simply couldn't imagine how many people the Black Castle had killed over the years?
Angel's face was a little pale. Facing the mess in the room, he was even a little afraid to step in.
It's not fear, it's simply resistance in the depths of his heart.
There was no one in the bath, but there was a row of footprints on the side of the bath, leading directly to the door. It was obvious that the woman outside was "bathing" halfway, and found someone coming in, so she hurried out to ambush.
The drainage pipe outside was not draining water, but the blood used by people to bathe.
Angel resisted the discomfort in his heart and stepped in.
There was no mechanism inside, but Angel would rather face the mechanism than face the wounds in this room. Especially, those women who were still alive looked at him with resentful eyes, like thorns in the sky.
Angel wanted to explain to these poor women, but how could he explain? Even if he explained, what was the use. Their hearts had been pierced, and they were not far from death.
Even if he wanted to save people, relying on the rudimentary healing technique, he was simply powerless to save them.
Angel walked to the bath and looked directly at those eyes that were like sharp arrows. He simply stood there for a long time before saying lightly:
"I'm not here to save you."
Angel's first sentence stunned them.
"I'm not here to kill you either. I want to know, how did you appear in the Black Castle?"
After a long while, a sharp and resentful voice said: "Black Castle, this is the Black Castle? Hahaha, I know I can die! Even if I become a ghost, I will not let the Black Castle go, and I will not let everyone here go!"
Angel looked over calmly, and there was a woman with long hair draped over her shoulders. Her eyes were extremely crazy, and endless resentment surrounded her. She is a mortal, but there is no doubt that once she dies, she will immediately turn into a ghost.
Angel was still thinking, and the long-haired woman seemed to be too angry, her eyes widened, and a stream of blood gushed out from the wound.
Seeing that she was about to die, Angel casually used a healing spell to keep her alive.
Among the people present, only she was still conscious and could speak clearly. Angel wanted to get information, so he could only pry it out of her mouth.
The woman panted heavily, looking at Angel with resentment: "Why did you save me?"
"I can't save you, your heart is broken, I can't save it." Angel said lightly: "I'm keeping you alive, just to know where you come from and why you are here?"
"Who are you? You are not one of those witches?" The woman's face was pale, and it seemed that the resentment was slowly gathering.
"I'm not from the Black Castle, I'm here... to save people." Angel looked at the woman.
"Hahaha, save people, hahaha." The woman laughed loudly, and tears kept falling while she laughed.
At the same time, the resentment in her body surged more and more with her excitement. Even if Angel used his naked eyes, he could see the rolling black waves.
Unfortunately, the woman laughed to the extreme, and the wound that had been healed once again broke, and her heart was agitated, and she was about to die.
Angel saved her again.
"Answer my question, how did you get here? Have you seen such a man half a day ago?" Angel said, simulating the phantom of the shadow.
The woman did not answer, but kept shouting and laughing miserably.
Time and time again, her heart broke, and was healed by Angel, and healed and broke again. In a short period of time, she tasted this great horror between life and death, so her resentment almost doubled.
Angel saw that the woman seemed to be using him to accumulate her resentment when she was alive to the peak. Once the resentment reached the extreme, the resentment after death would quickly push her past the early stage of the undead.
After hesitating for a moment, Angel decided to fulfill her wish. If this was her long-cherished wish before her death, then let her fulfill it.
The woman said a few words at first, tempting Angel to continue to heal her.
But later, she seemed to see that Angel was intentionally helping her accumulate resentment, so she simply said nothing, but kept agitating her blood and letting herself experience life and death again and again.
Her resentment reached a terrifying level in the push again and again.
Angel did not expect that this ordinary mortal woman could endure such severe pain again and again. If she had not been caught by the people of the Black Castle, she might have been a hero like Nausicaa.
What a pity. She fell at the starting line before she saw the future.
Perhaps the woman knew that her limit had been reached. The last time she looked at Angel, there was no resentment in her eyes, and she was calm like a lady.
"I am the thirteenth daughter of King Guman. Because of the loss of the blood royal power, I was framed as a criminal by the eldest princess. King Guman demoted me to a commoner, and the eldest princess made me become a slave. After being displaced, I was sold here... ...Hahaha, I thought I would become a slave and serve men all my life, but I didn't expect that this place is a den of witches. They bathe in the blood of virgins. Then... you saw it," the woman said, her anger disappearing, "As for them. , The coward who only knows how to cry was probably sold by slave traders. "
King Guman? Angel was a little surprised. The Kingdom of Guman was not in a fairy tale world, and it was more than ten thousand miles away from here. Ordinary people might not be able to get here even if they spend their entire lives.
Therefore, the slave trader she mentioned definitely had a wizarding background.
According to this logic, all women were sent by slave traders. The "cold place" Huahua mentioned may not be in the fairy tale world. That would be even harder to find. There are countless cold places in the Southern Region!
"I have seen this man before." The woman vomited blood and pointed at the illusion of the shadow: "Just a few hours ago, the temptress had a fight with the man, and finally he came in and took a look at us. Then she left. Then the witch came back and took a bath again while cursing. "
After the woman finished speaking, the whites of her eyes began to roll up.
Angel lowered his head: "Thank you."
The woman laughed loudly and her life was extinguished.
