Start a Core Pod

  Chapter 250 Prisoner

For Duanmuhuai and others, capturing this orc lair is just a trivial matter. After eliminating the orc soldiers here, they will continue to move forward-after all, from this route, as long as they follow the road ahead If you continue on the road, you should be able to reach the beast clan's lair.

The orcs obviously don't like people getting too close to their lairs, and they also attacked Duanmuhuai and others in groups. In addition to countless orc soldiers, these orcs even used their tamed soldiers to attack them. However, even these extremely hard and ferocious underground creatures are not the opponents of Duanmu Huai and others. They almost cut melons and cut vegetables all the way forward and killed them, blocking in front of themselves along the way. Almost everything was killed by them.

  These ferocious orcs were no different from pigs waiting to be slaughtered in front of Duanmu Huai, they were no threat at all.

   "You... who the **** are you?"

   At this time, Kate looked at Duanmu Huai with eyes full of doubt and anxiety. It can be said that these people have become creatures that Kate cannot understand. She has no idea who these people are and where they come from.

   "I said, you don't need to know this."

   Duanmu Huai swung his hammer suddenly, smashing a spider-like underground monster to the ground, and then spoke.

   "We are just doing what we should do. You either shut up or get out of here. As for other things, you don't need to know, and you shouldn't know, understand what I mean?"

  “………”

Hearing Duanmuhuai's answer, Kate opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say. They fell into an awkward silence for a while. Fortunately, at this moment, An's lively voice sounded, breaking the situation. There was an awkward silence.

   "Mr. Knight, Miss Feline said that she felt a lot of human breath not far ahead."

"Oh, is it so?"

  Hearing this, Duanmu Huai frowned.

   "Let's go and see."

Soon, a group of people continued to move forward, passed through the cave, and came to a relatively empty cave, which looked more like a prison, with huge iron cages everywhere, and many people who looked like steel cages beside them. coffin.

   "Open these things."

As Duanmuhuai spoke, he walked to a steel coffin, then he stretched out his hand, and pulled the coffin open with force. Then, a ragged man fell out of it, and he looked at Duanmu in horror. Huai let out a scream of fear—then rolled his eyes and passed out.

  “………”

  Seeing this scene, Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes, and then looked at the others.

   "It's better for you to come."

   Soon, the girls stepped forward to open these coffins, and they were surprised to find that there were people locked in these coffins, including men and women, old and young, and even some burly soldiers. Not only that, Kate also saw her acquaintances in it.

   "Uncle Barek? Are you caught here?"

   "Ah, it's you."

  Hearing someone call his name, a middle-aged man froze for a moment, then turned his head to look at Kate. He was the leader of the vagrant team that hired Kate to protect him before. At that time, the vagrant team was defeated by the orcs. Originally, Kate thought he was dead, but unexpectedly he was caught here.

   Looking carefully, most of the people who were caught here were members of the homeless team, but Kate was not very familiar with them. Of course, there were still a few soldiers left.

After counting the number of people, a total of more than one hundred people were rescued this time. However, according to Barek, more of them were originally captured, but they have now been taken away by those beast tribes. They were lucky to be left here.

   "I heard that those orcs seem to want to take away the prisoners and reform them... I really can't imagine what they are going to do..."

  Recalling the scene at that time, Barek was also afraid for a while, and then he glanced at Duanmuhuai who was standing not far away, and asked Kate in a low voice.

   "Kate, who are they?"

   "I don't know, but they are here to destroy the orcs."

   "Destroy the orcs? Come here? Just these few people??"

   "Of course not, they brought thousands of people, all of whom are quite powerful fighters..."

  Before Kate finished explaining to Barek, she saw Barek suddenly turn pale. Kate, who had already had a premonition in her heart, turned her head and saw Duanmuhuai walking towards her.

   "May I ask what you want?"

Even if Kate is a carefree woman, she will unconsciously tense up in front of Duanmuhuai, who seems to be surrounded by a kind of coercion that makes her feel extremely frightened. Kneel before this fearsome black warrior.

  However, Duanmuhuai just glanced at Kate, and said lightly.

   "I have notified the rear to send another team to **** them up. Before that, these guys will be handed over to you to manage."

   "Huh? Is it just me?"

   "Lorena and the others will also stay here to treat the wounded soldiers..."

  However, before Duanmu Huai finished speaking, suddenly, a figure stumbled out of the crowd and threw himself in front of Duanmu Huai.

   "My child, my child, please save my child...!"

  It was a woman, and she was crying bitterly at the moment, crying to Duanmuhuai for help. But Duanmu Huai looked at her and frowned.

   "Did her child also be taken away by the orcs?"

"this………"

  Kate didn't know too well, so she turned her questioning gaze to Barek, who shuddered, and hurriedly shook his head desperately.

   "No, no, no, that's not the case! Please don't mind this gentleman, she is a madman...!"

   "Crazy?"

   "Yes, her child seemed to have been killed by the orcs a long time ago, and then she went crazy and looked for her child everywhere... She also came to our tribe by herself..."

   "Let Lorena show her."

  Duanmuhuai nodded, and said to Kate, who quickly expressed her understanding, and then she hurried to the woman and helped her up in a soft voice. He comforted her a few words, and under Kate's safety, the woman seemed to gradually calm down, and was taken aside by Kate.

After a short stay here, Duanmu Huai continued to lead the others forward, leaving only Lorena's angel team here—they were originally in charge of logistical preparations to deal with such emergencies It is also their responsibility.

   And these vagrants also found weapons from the corpses of the orcs around them and armed them. Then they gathered together, waiting anxiously for the arrival of reinforcements.

  Kate brought the woman in front of Lorena, and then whispered about her situation.

   "That's right..."

  After listening to Kate's narration, Lorena said softly with a little sadness.

   "I can understand the grief of losing her child. Maybe she is still in a dream and doesn't want to wake up. At least in this way, she can always deceive herself and tell herself that the child is not dead..."

   "Uh...Miss Lorena, do you have a solution?"

  Frankly speaking, Kate is skeptical of Lorena. On the one hand, this kind of mental illness itself is difficult to treat, even professional doctors may not be able to cure it. On the other hand, although in Kate's eyes, the lady pastor is indeed dressed as a priest and looks like a priest, but she will never forget the scene where the other party took the scriptures and slapped the runaway female orc on the face... …After all, it’s only been a while, hasn’t it?

  Kate was a little worried, whether Lorena would directly lift up the scripture she was holding in her hand, and give this woman a "physical therapy"... Human brains are not as hard as orcs! If Lorena came up with this, it is estimated that this woman would immediately blow her mind... Uh, if this is the case, maybe she will be able to see her beloved daughter?

  Miss Lorena really did that!

  Fortunately, Lorena didn't go directly to "physical therapy" as Kate thought. Instead, she just reached out, took the woman's thin hands, stared at her, and spoke softly.

   "Please rest assured, the glory of the gods is willing to shine on every kind person."

   While speaking, Lorena looked at the Angel of Good News standing behind her.

"please."

  “……”

  Jiayin Angel is a cute girl with long flaxen hair, braids, and a thin dress. Hearing Lorena's request, she nodded, and then Kate saw the girl take out a harp from nowhere and hold it in her arms, then she gently plucked the strings, and then... the girl sang stand up.

"I implore the gods to listen carefully. I am definitely not trying to steal your power and life. All the lives in this world are special existences...Because I was not chosen by fate, I beg the gods to give me hope again...even if I know that human beings are not good, and I would like to bring hope to those who ask for forgiveness..."

  The girl's voice is sweet and crisp, as if piercing the soul. Although she sang in a language that Kate could not understand at all, for some reason, just hearing this song made Kate feel an inexplicable shock.

Even those vagrants who were restless, nervous and panic gradually became quiet now. They held weapons in their arms and stared at the singing girl, as if they had forgotten all the troubles of this world for a moment, just immersed in the incomparable In a calm and melodious atmosphere.

  At this moment, they seem to have found...the long-lost peace.
