Linde was tied to a tall human-shaped cross, and he was baked by the hot sun. The long-term high temperature made him feel a little fuzzy.

There are more than 30 people who received the same treatment as him. They are all members of the "Fleeing Party". Some of them he knew, but some were not familiar with them. They were all people who were hunted back one after another.

Linde feels thankful that Saru and Jenick are not among these people. Among these people, the most familiar one Linde saw was Qi Linde.

The unlocking expert who looks like a mouse is now lowering his head listlessly under the scorching sun. The entire face was hidden under the dirty gray curly hair. Big drops of sweat flowed down his forehead, and the whole person looked like he was going to be sunburned.

At this moment, a stretched black figure appeared in Linde's field of vision.

"How about the punishment of exposure, I don't know if you like it or not, maybe it's not as comfortable as being underground!" That was the voice of the Warden Dolemy.

Linde lifted the head with difficulty, and there seemed to be a fat figure approaching him in his slightly blurred vision.

The figure is limping towards him with a cane in one arm. Four or five guards in soft armor were following him not far away.

"It's you...what are you here..." Linde said coldly, opening his lips full of cracks.

"Of course I'm here to see you, my old friend." Chief Warden Dolemy said with a naive look, "Among the captured prisoners, I and you In other words, there is some friendship."

"That is also called friendship, shouldn't it be called hatred more appropriate?" The boy said with a sneer.

"Friendship is friendship. I really don’t hate you. Since I don’t hate you, how come the hatred comes." Dolemy said with a smile, "It was a red moon last night. I wanted to give you a chance, whether it's your friend or the other prisoners who escaped. Just let you kill, you won't be tied to it today, maybe you should stand by my side at this moment."

"But your plan still fell through. I should really thank you for the story you told me before, which made me be wary of it." Linde said.

"haha...it seems that I shouldn't show up to you?"

"Time can't go back." Linde said mockingly.

"Then you want to taste the whip after exposure to the sun!" Dolemy looked fierce in the blink of an eye.

At this time, the four or five men behind him pulled out their whips and gathered in front of Linde, and a shower of whips hit him.

Until the blood stained Linde's clothes, the guards stopped flogging.

"How does it feel to eat a whip?"

Dolemy limped to Linde's body, and he lifted Linde's chin with the long whip in his hand .

"This is the end of disobedience to the chief guard. No matter how hard your mouth is, it can't reach the steel whip in my hand." Dolemy said fiercely, but he suddenly moved his mouth closer. Linde’s ear, "Tell you, in this endless wasteland, wanting to escape is basically wishful thinking, we have everywhere eyeliner here, no matter where you go, the old crow’s people will eventually send you back. Yes! You can't tell the difference between the regular cavalry of the Olastan family and ours."

"Old crow! Who is the old crow?" Linde asked through gritted teeth.

"Lao Ya? Lao Ya is Lao Ya. You may know him or you may not know him. What does it matter? I am afraid you will never see him in this life." Dolemy pretended to lament.

"Really? I can't get out anymore..."

Linde put his head down, he was thinking about everyone who appeared next to him, but those People seem to be inconsistent with the image of "Old Crow".

Perhaps they did see it in the welcome hall, maybe there was a nodded sign, maybe they passed by in the narrow staircase.

At this time, Linde heard Dolemy continue.

"Linde, since you have nowhere to go, then I will give you a chance to go to the earth! Go inside, and if you are lucky enough to come out, tell me about the situation inside. I want to know here Is it the same as the legend..."

Linde slowly raised his head. He looked at the iron door of the mine opposite by the huge iron lock, where there was no sound any longer.

"You let me go inside the mine?" Linde's face immediately became ugly.

"Yes, that’s right. In the first half of last night, there was a knock on the door of ding ding dong dong inside the iron gate, which prevented me from falling asleep in the first half of the night. There is no sound, but the sound of you turning the elevator interrupted my sleep in the middle of the night." Dolemy said, "Linde, are you not curious about what's in the mine?"

"Do you want me to go in and bring out all the prisoners trapped inside?"

"haha...I'm not so kind, let your god take them to heaven sooner. I'm fine. I just want to know what's in the underground."

"You can go in and walk around by yourself, then you don't need others to report to you."

"It seems you want to Eat the whip, Linde." The chief caretaker frowned, "Tell you the truth! The Elder Council of the sacred group hopes to release the guy inside into this world, but that guy has been tired for thousands of years, I’m afraid I don’t want to come out. So I need a bait, a bait that can irritate him."

"Do you want me to be a bait?" Linde was shocked.

"Is there someone who is more suitable than you? You will definitely dedicate your life to the group of gods. I have no doubt about it."

"What if I don't go?"

"You and your partner will die in a little bit of pain under the scorching sun. You have no choice but to go down. This is my last kindness to you. Untie them! "

After receiving the order, the guards began to put down the people on the cross one by one.

"This time I am very compassionate. I can pick any armor or weapons, and that's just those...When I'm ready, I will be obediently and honestly down the mine tunnel!" The chief guard said while pointing no The armor and weapons that were re-disarmed in the distance, "Don’t give me any tricks, Linde, you know how good I am."

......

Linde and 30 other brothers watched the iron gate outside the mine tunnel closed again, and disappeared at the same time as the piggy-like laughter of the chief guard

The sun was completely out of touch with them, they lit up The torch in his hand walked towards the depths of the pit under the guidance of the dim flame.

The environment here should be familiar to them, and the mine tunnel is spacious enough, even if people who are familiar with it close their eyes, they can find the next corner effortlessly.

Everything went so smoothly. They walked down the rugged mine road to a depth of about 500 meters.

Everything is so quiet, except for the sound of everyone's footsteps, only the sound of "tick...tick..." groundwater hitting the rock wall.

Linde feels strange, an indescribable sense of depression rise in the mind. There is no one here, and there is not even a trace left.

Under the seemingly normal appearance, there seems to be a hidden crisis peeping at them in the darkness somewhere, Linde thought.

"Strange, why is there no one?"

Someone spoke suddenly, and his voice echoed in the tunnel, spreading far away.

"Yes, when we ran away last night, we heard someone knocking on the iron door. I could hear the people inside crying...Where did they go? You don’t see anyone alive or a corpse," another said.

"I won't let the underground evil spirits drag them away!"

"Don't...Don't talk nonsense..."

Linde Long Taking a breath, he shook the torch in his hand into the darkness ahead.

"There is something wrong! It's different from the place I walked yesterday." Linde said without looking back, and his eyes suddenly widened, "That's... what's that? "

Everyone also looked in the direction Linde was pointing, and many people also stretched the torch forward.

The mine tunnel that was supposed to extend far away was replaced by a huge stone gate large enough for eight people to run in parallel. The stone gate was mottled, and the carved patterns were already unrecognizable.

Behind the open door is a layer of stone steps extending downwards, until the endless darkness...
