These strong men with a certain level of strength will be used for similar experiments and transformed into combat puppets like dolls, while ordinary people seem to have other uses.

After such a long time, Natalie had almost resigned herself to her fate and gave up hope, so she didn't really want to talk to Miss Edwina, who didn't look very smart, but later found out that she was also a paladin. Only then did I start talking.

Hearing this, Edwina was a little confused, and asked the female adventurer on the other side through the thick wall.

"No, didn't Miss Natalie send a letter to Archbishop Vader in advance? After being missing for so long, he should have already noticed something strange and started to act?"

"The Archbishop...huh..."

Miss Pure White Lion snorted coldly, and with a low voice, she taught a lesson to the young Holy Knight Ji who still didn't quite understand the dangers in the world.

"I was extremely cautious during the investigation. The time I went to this place was completely random. How did the enemy know that we were coming to the Iris Orphanage? Could it be that so many experts squat in their lair every day when they have nothing to do? Is it possible?"

"Huh?! Do you mean..."

An unbelievable exclamation leaked from the corner of her mouth, even though Edwina was slow to respond, she understood what the other party meant when she heard this.

"Yes, nine times out of ten that bastard Vader betrayed me!"

"It was because I felt that many important people should be involved in this matter, so I was very cautious. I only told Vader, who belongs to the same religion. I didn't expect that this old bastard would dare to violate the teachings of the goddess and secretly collude with the cultists. He simply It's crazy!"

"This, how is this possible? Archbishop Vader is a senior priest who has served Her Majesty the Goddess for more than 30 years, and the leader of thousands of priests in the entire Temple of the City of Valor. How could..."

boom!

There was a slightly irritable heavy knocking sound from the other side of the wall, and even Edwina could feel the other party's anger and irritability.

"You ask me, who am I to ask!"

After a while, Natalie seemed to calm down a little, and said in a low voice.

"In short, don't count on it there. Even if Vader is really not apostate, he must be entangled by something and it is difficult to help. Otherwise, there should be movement after such a long time."

"Your name is Edwina, right? I have an idea. I might be able to escape, but I can't do it alone. Instead of waiting here to die, I might as well try my best and try my luck."

While pondering, the pure white lion extended an invitation to the young holy knight Ji.

"Everyone is a sky-level paladin. I think there is no need to say more about some things. In a word, do it or not?"

Chapter 118: Chapter 58: Prison Break, Start!

After discussing with Natalie, Edwina stayed in the dark cell for about three days, roughly figured out the situation here and the law of the enemy's activities, and waited for the opportunity.

There are two kinds of guards. One is like those puppets she has seen before, dressed in black robes and whose faces cannot be seen clearly.The other type is usually dressed more casually, dressed like a common resident of the kingdom, and seems to have complete sanity, but when they are very close, they can smell a faint smell of corruption.

The latter should be the thing that Edwina fought against before, the thing that robbed the little girl, and it is also a full-fledged member of the so-called [Eternal Throne].

Those puppets controlled by drugs seem to follow the command of this group of people who seem to be dead but not alive.

However, the living dead don't often come to the dark and humid cells with extremely poor environment, and most of the work is done by puppets.

This is the opportunity Natalie mentioned.

Clang, the iron door was pushed open again.

Four or five puppets in black robes filed in, checked the form in their hands, stopped and walked, and finally came outside Edwina's prison.

The leader took out a large bunch of metal keys from his pocket, slowly found the one corresponding to the door in front of him, opened the fence door, walked in one by one, and surrounded the ladies of the holy knight who sat cross-legged on the bed and closed their eyes to meditate.

They didn't speak, but silently, stretched out their hands to pull the blond girl whose face was slightly haggard due to the hard life in prison for three days.

The puppets didn't know what to do, so they pulled very hard, pulling Edwina staggering and almost fell to the ground, and the latter also lowered his head, didn't resist or speak angrily, as if he had completely given up hope.

Because Edwina was very cooperative, the puppets didn't inject her with the strange drug that could make people lose consciousness. The two dragged her away, slowly walked out of the cell, and began to move to the outside world.

However, the few puppets who could only execute simple orders and judgments did not notice the corners of Paladin Ji's lips that were constantly opening and closing slightly, as well as the pure holy light waves that she deliberately suppressed inside her body.

The detainee in the next cell, another young woman with silver-white shoulder-length short hair, but a little disheveled, was leaning on the railing, silently watching a group of people walking towards the outside, just like she used to show every time like that.

However, the corners of her mouth were also moving slightly, as if corresponding to Paladin Ji's singing.

And when the team all left Edwina's cell and passed by the railing next door, the sudden change happened!

"My lord Almighty, bestow upon us your mighty power! / Goddess of Mercy, please send down the light of purity!

The silent chanting suddenly turned into a high-pitched prayer, and two groups of rich golden light spread out from the paladins inside and outside the prison at the same time, turning into pure power of holy light.

"Unity and Prayer - Light of Purification of All Abnormalities!" x2

The light summoned by Edwina spread out, forming a golden barrier covering herself and all the puppets around her, while Natalie, who was already ready to go, injected golden light into the curtain at the same time.

An invisible mist of light filled the space inside the barrier, and under the joint chants of the two sky-level paladins, this high-ranking faith-based magic instantly exerted its full effect.

The few puppets who were a little slow to respond did not respond immediately, and the signal they sent hastily was completely blocked by the barrier, filled with light and mist, and they suddenly froze in place as if struck by lightning, and then...

Jingle, clack clack clatter.

When the sword fell to the ground, the puppets also wailed and collapsed, twitching violently like drowning fish. The hood covering their heads also fell apart during the movement, revealing their true faces.

"Huh? You are...!"

Edwina, who was rummaging for the keys from the headed man, accidentally caught a glimpse of one of them, opened her mouth wide in shock, and subconsciously paused for a moment.

Isn't this short-haired girl with a ponytail exactly the adventurer she saw when she just woke up and was captured for experimentation! ?

She never came back after that time. Unexpectedly, in just three days, the lively adventurer had turned into such a lifeless look while still trying her best to resist. Edwina hadn't even noticed it before.

The girl, like the other puppets affected by the white mist, howled and struggled on the ground, rolling back and forth in pain with her head in her arms.

Natalie and Edwina's [All Abnormal Purification] will not kill her, but weaken the influence of the medicine on her. The two parties compete for control of the body at the same time, which will lead to the current situation .

This is exactly what Natalie expected.

Compared with the appearance when she accidentally caught a glimpse, she was obviously thinner, and her delicate face was also slightly pale. The black robe that did not fit well and the exposed skin were covered with dirty black dust, and the arms and neck were even more remnant. Many traces of needle injection.

The girl rolled her eyes, her saliva flowed out unconsciously, and she could only let out a hoarse scream of "ho ho". She was clearly transformed into this appearance by using harmless magic to purify abnormalities, which shows how much abuse and cruel experiments she has suffered.

"Damn, damn! This group of inhuman bastards! I will never let them go! I will definitely send them all to the stake! Bastards!!!"

Edwina hit the ground angrily with her fist, regardless of the traces of bright red splashing from it, and now she can only use this method to vent the strong negative emotions in her heart.

"Okay, don't be incompetent and furious, is it meaningful? Help me open the cell door, and let's talk about escaping if there is anything to do."

The other Miss Paladin seemed much calmer, probably because she was used to similar scenes, and her own experience and mentality were more mature than Edwina's.

"Ah... sorry, I forgot when I got angry, right away!"

After frantically digging out the key and letting Natalie regain her freedom, the pair of sisters and sisters began to follow the plan, preparing to escape from the dark cage and the Iris Orphanage outside.

Although very unwilling, they do not have the ability to help others now.

After all, there are only a few capable ones. Most of the prisoners in these hundreds of cells are ordinary residents of the royal capital who were taken captive, and they are basically young.

Because of the rough environment, rough treatment, and various experimental tortures, they were already extremely weak, and even had difficulty walking. The two holy knights Ji could not protect themselves, so how could they escape with so many oil bottles?

The two of them are already the strongest prisoners here, and it is because they are both paladins that they can maintain mutual trust. It is impossible to predict the consequences if they bring other people along.

After all, the more this kind of crisis is often, the more real the test of human nature will be.

Of course, this was proposed by Miss Natalie, and the terms of cooperation had been negotiated with Edwina long ago, otherwise, with the latter's naive and foolish brain circuit, maybe something stupid would happen.

Now that it has been agreed, Edwina will not shamelessly say "help everyone go out together".

"Miss Natalie, do you know where our equipment and belongings are stored? Without weapons, it may be difficult to rush out from here."

Miss [Pure White Lion] calmed down her breathing rhythm and nodded slowly after being tortured to be very weak.

"I know. When I was pulled to do the experiment, I happened to see someone else just put the newly captured victim's belongings into a certain room. If there is no accident, our things should be there. Come with me."

"Okay, please."

Reluctantly, she looked back at the several puppet adventurers who had fallen into a coma, and then glanced at the innocent people in the cell who looked at her with hope, but were so weak that they could hardly move or speak loudly... .

The young paladin Ji turned around, and together with her companions, they walked quickly towards the dim light shining from outside the iron gate.

Chapter 119: Chapter 59: What's the easiest way to open the door?

Wei Lisi's progress in the orphanage was not fast.

The boy named Eli was very cautious, stopping every few steps and looking around to see if there was anything nearby, or if the two big sisters behind him had followed.

Probably because Her Royal Highness's attack at the main entrance attracted most of the enemy's attention. After walking for more than ten minutes, the three of them wandered around the depths of the orphanage. Thanks to Little Eli's skillful guidance and avoidance, they miraculously did not encounter any living dead on the throne of immortality.

I met a lot of children from the orphanage who were dressed similarly to Eli, but they were all the same as the former, listless and dull-eyed. Even when they saw Wei Lisi and Xiaoguang, two strangers from outside, they had no intention of coming up to talk or shout.

Just like that, standing in the darkness in the shadows, watching silently like a baby ghost.

They didn't take the initiative to approach, and Wei Lisi was happy to be at ease.

One Eli is fine, if so many children have to rely on her to appease, wouldn't it be troublesome to die for, the most annoying thing for Miss Priest is trouble.

Finally, the boy stopped at the corner of a dark corridor.

"Wait a minute, sister Willis."

"Ok?"

Although her face was puzzled, Wei Lisi stopped her steps according to what Little Eli said, and signaled to Xiao Longniang, who had no intention of paying attention, to stop as well.

"what happened?"

The little boy looked timidly at the shadows of the closed doors behind the corner, and explained softly.

"The front is the experimental field. Without the company of adults, I can't approach it casually. Sorry, I can only bring it here. Through the corridor of the experimental field, there is a very large iron gate. Those brothers and sisters who are doing experiments with us You guys come out of the door every time..."

The logic of Eli's behavior is easy to understand.

As long as he could remember, he had never come into contact with outsiders alone, and he didn't know the difference between Willis and those members of the Eternal Throne. Coupled with the kindness of the pastor, he naturally agreed to lead the way.

But at the same time, the "rules" in the orphanage are also absolute iron rules for him. Even if he is taken by Willis, he dare not enter the forbidden area. This is the limit that Eli can reach.

It seems inexplicable, but it is actually very reasonable. After all, he is just a six or seven-year-old child, and he lacks basic education, so the thoughts in his mind can be said to be very, very simple.

"..............."

Seeing the little boy timidly lowering his head, as if he was afraid of Willis' reprimand, Miss Priest hesitated for a moment, but finally didn't say anything more.

There's no need to keep him involved.

"Then come here, you go back to where you live now, no matter what happens outside, don't go out to explore casually, understand?"

In the girl's clear and gentle voice, this time there was a taste of order and majesty. Willis understood that for this kind of undeveloped child, a strong tone is sometimes more effective than gentle persuasion.

It's fate to meet each other. Although it's just a passerby, Miss Priest doesn't want Eli to die inexplicably in the aftermath of the battle between the [Eternal Throne] and Princess Lilia.

"Huh? But the grown-ups say that every day you have to... 噫!"

Eli seemed to want to say something, but when he raised his head to meet the black-haired girl's indifferent clear silver-blue eyes, he couldn't help feeling panic and trembling in his heart.

It was as if disobeying the will of the girl in front of her would bring about some extremely terrifying results.

"I, I know Sister Willis! Then, see you next time."

When he said the first half of the sentence, he still had an unconcealable panic, but after saying "goodbye", a little reluctance appeared in the boy's tone.

A child's mentality is so unpredictable, or to Eli, Willis is the most beautiful and kind "adult" in his memory.

"Well, see you next time."

Unfortunately, there will be no next time.

A thought flashed across the girl's mind.

After all, he was just an ordinary child, and he met Willis by chance only because he was involved in the [Throne of Eternal Life].

After this time, even if Eli can survive by chance, the two sides will never have any intersection again.

This is not a flag, but an inferred necessity based on facts and common sense.

We meet by chance, we are each other's passers-by, that's all.

Thinking about it, Miss Pastor finally knelt down and smiled at the thin boy in front of her. When she turned around, her expression became indifferent again, and she walked away quickly without any regrets.

"Thank you, Sister Willis..."

Eli found out that there was still warmth in his arms, colorful icing, and a touch of warmth flashed between his dull brows, and then, he gradually walked back into the darkness...

...............

Leaving the little boy Eli, according to the direction he pointed out before parting, Wei Lisi's second daughter stepped out of the corner carelessly, and came to a large iron gate that was obviously rebuilt in the later stage.
