Azur Lane: I Crossed the Graduation Port Area

Chapter 1399: Court Open the Door
"I feel the sad songs of my compatriots echoing in the space below. Why did you come here?"

When Lin Lan was about to destroy the gate of the manor, Logatis, who had been following them all the way, frowned and asked a question.

"It's simple. This is the base of slave traders. It's normal for Nagas to be imprisoned here...Dragoon."

Lin Lan said this calmly, and the blonde Sardinian girl beside him understood what he meant and pointed her rifle at the manor gate.

"Boom!"

It clearly looked like just a small-caliber musket from the outside, but when fire burst out from the muzzle, the violent explosion completely engulfed the entire manor gate.

Mogador raised his hand in advance and released a transparent Rubik's Cube energy shield to block the impact of the explosion for them.

This scene made Logatis dumbfounded. Other pedestrians on the street were frightened by the explosion that shook the ground and cast horrified glances at him.

Ignoring the Naga and the people passing by on the street, Lin Lan and the three ship girls walked straight into the mansion through the ruins of the manor gate.

As far as he knew, there were only a few foreign maids in Mander's mansion who were controlled by him using slave contract magic.

Apart from the adult slaves who were sold, the only ones left in the dungeon were the young slaves who were originally intended to be sold to pagans as sacrifices.

Slave contract magic is a type of magic that falls under the category of enchantment. As the name suggests, the caster can engrave it into the deepest part of the slave's soul to enslave him, and the other party cannot resist at all.

Mander himself is naturally not a charm control wizard.

But don't forget that the Teaching Kingdom has various magic scrolls for sale.

As long as they are willing to spend money, they can still sign a slave contract with every high-value slave they capture.

Even so, the carrier of the slave contracts of these slaves is not Mander himself, but a magic scroll that can be changed hands at any time.

Whoever holds the magic scrolls of these slave contracts will be the new master of the slaves.

Don't forget that Mander himself is a slave trader, which makes it easy to trade slaves.

"Dragoon, give me Mander's magic storage ring."

"receive."

As Mogador kicked open the main door of the villa with a swift kick, he also took the magic storage ring containing dozens of slave contracts from the dragon rider.

As he expected, since Mander planned to leave Sheath City early to seek refuge, all the luxury goods and furniture in the villa had already been moved out.

There were only four shivering, huddled together, pointy-eared blonde forest elf maids looking at them with fear and despair in their eyes.

"I miss the Inquisition's "Open the Door" so much. When we were in the home port before, many of the little guys from the Iris Knights liked to kick the door so vigorously."

Marco Polo looked around with a sly smile, teasing Mogador.

Lin Lan looked at the four forest elf maids and said in the gentlest tone possible:

“Don’t be afraid, we are here to rescue you on behalf of the church.

"Manard has been purified. Tell us where the entrance to the underground prison is."

After hearing his explanation, the four elf maids opened their eyes wide and stared at him in disbelief.

One of the elf maids who looked a little older bravely stood up and asked him tentatively:
"Master, you, you mean that Mander has already..."

"Yes, he has been sentenced. Later, I will cancel all of your slave contracts at once. The local church will take care of and arrange your future lives."

Hearing his confident answer, the four elf maids seemed to lose their minds due to excitement about the good news. They hugged each other and cried loudly.

And through the tormenting experiences they revealed in the few words they spoke while crying, Lin Lan also understood that this was undoubtedly a new life for them.

The process went smoothly afterwards. Led by one of the elf maids, they soon found the entrance to the dungeon deep inside the mansion. When Mogador destroyed the dungeon door sealed with concealment magic with a chain axe, Lin Lan instantly felt the breath of dozens of dying slaves coming from the dungeon.

Logatis rushed into the dungeon before any of them.

He already knew the situation in the dungeon and chose to let the three ship girls wait outside.

He walked slowly into the dungeon, and the scene before him made him gasp in shock even though he had seen countless tragic scenes since his time travel and knew that Mander had a hobby of abusing slaves.

On both sides of the narrow and dim dungeon corridor, many young alien children whose lives were in danger were imprisoned behind iron cages.

These children of different races or mixed races all had whipping wounds and bruises on their bodies, and many of them were infected and festered, but they did not receive any bandages.

Logatis has broken open the cage that held the two Naga girls.

As they have not yet mastered the magic of shapeshifting, the lower bodies of these two young Nagas are still fish bodies, and they are fixed by their hands and suspended in the air in the prison.

After rescuing two compatriots who were almost dying due to the dry environment, the transformed Naga hugged them tightly, with tears of heartache streaming down her face.

"Hey……"

Lin Lan sighed, and then his mind moved slightly, and countless black air currents destroyed all the cages in the dungeon.

At the same time, with the help of the feedback healing power obtained after the invisible breath restored his prime form, he quickly recovered from the injuries of those young slaves who still had lifeless eyes even though their cages were destroyed.

"Sir, are you our new master?"

At this time, a werewolf loli who was less seriously injured stood at the door of the cage and asked him tentatively in a soft voice.

"No, I am not."

Lin Lan looked at this little white-haired dog-eared girl who should have been enjoying her childhood but had scars all over her body. She rejected him first, and then said word by word:

"From today on, no one will be your master anymore."

After saying that, he activated the magic storage ring that he had been holding in his hand, and dozens of sheepskin slave contracts were raised by him.

The next second, under the gaze of the surrounding young slaves who were filled with confusion, excitement, joy and disbelief, the magic scrolls of slave contracts were burned up by the flames transformed from the black airflow.

The two young Naga lolis lying in Logatis' arms slowly opened their eyes at this time and saw this scene that they would never forget.

The man surrounded by flying black flames and embers should have frightened them.

But every young slave was clearly aware that the other party was shattering the slave contract deep in their souls, bringing new life to them who had already resigned themselves to a dark future.

“Manard is dead, but there are still countless slave traders in the land of Saint Lothalon.

“You don’t need to thank me, but if you have enough power in the future, I hope you can bring salvation to countless children who are imprisoned and bullied like you.

“So stop holding back your grief and cry it out.

"When your tears run dry, it means that the shackles on you will be broken, and you will be able to walk the path of the future step by step by yourself."

When Lin Lan finished saying these words in a resounding voice, all the slave contracts were burned by him.

Seeing that all the young slaves' injuries were healed, he turned and walked out of the dungeon.

Until this moment, accompanied by a cry from someone unknown, the dungeon was instantly filled with the wailing of children.

Even Logatis was staring at Lin Lan's back as she turned and walked out of the dungeon, unable to utter a word for a long time.
