Chapter 600: Chapter 251: Close Your Eyes, Cover Your Ears (Two-in-One Mega Chapter)
Rein paused for a moment, then decided to complete his preset mission first, rescuing Alyosha before anything else.
Updat𝓮d from frёewebnoѵēl.com.
Since the sounds of fighting coming from the passage ahead were still distant, even if he hurried over, it would take considerable time, and Alyosha was roughly twenty to thirty meters away.
Right after Rein turned right, it wasn’t long before he spotted faintly a wall made up of pale blue stone slabs ahead, and an underground hall suddenly appeared before him.
This was a true hall!
Unlike the passages, which were newly excavated, this hall had been in existence for a long time, giving off a very ancient feeling.
Since the entrance not far from the original hole had collapsed, it seemed this tunnel had been dug specifically to connect to this place.
This hall was built with the same pale blue striped boulders that Rein had seen when he descended into the cave, forming the walls around it, with two rows of Doric-style columns in the center of the hall for support, also made of pale blue boulders.
Moreover, at the far end of the hall, there was faintly a passage that seemed to extend deeper, with glistening water light reflecting on both sides.
The sudden appearance of the quaint hall couldn’t help but arouse Rein’s curiosity.
Thus, Rein lightened his steps, slowly approaching, and took a quick glance.
Inside the stone hall, there were more than twenty of the white-scale fishmen he had just killed, guarding the place in positions spaced five and ten steps apart, and there were also three Blood Curse Nagas stationed here.
What shocked him was that on one side of the hall’s walls, he saw seven or eight cages made of some tough seaweed, imprisoning human men and women.
All these people had one thing in common, their knight’s plate armor or wizard robes were shattered or damaged, and their expressions were listless.
Rein keenly noticed that the young woman with a ponytail on the outermost side, clutching a faintly glowing stone in her hand, was holding the same communication stone as the one in his hand.
It seems that she must be the target, the younger daughter of envoy Javier—Alyosha.
Alyosha had noticed just about ten minutes ago that the communication stone in her bosom was faintly glowing, at first, she thought she was seeing things.
Because only when another communication stone approached would the one in her bosom light up.
But how could that be?
Her father was far away in Mingster, had someone been sent over so quickly?
Just thinking that the rescuers her father sent were about to arrive, Alyosha’s originally listless beautiful eyes immediately widened, suddenly becoming spirited!
However, she soon furrowed her brows slightly, as if thinking of something, her expression once again becoming worried and uncertain.
She glanced slightly to the side, looking at her fellow imperial elite team members also captured.
“The two closest to me are from the imperial army’s special department ‘Groundshaker,’ under the Grizzly Bear squad. These two were captured shortly after me during the noisy period guarded by the fishmen, we exchanged a few words.”
“A little further away, those three are also under ‘Groundshaker’ but belong to another squad, apparently called the Raptor squad, who were captured about an hour later than Grizzly Bear squad, and they said they were exploring some altar.”
“The other two are even more formidable, belonging to the ‘Sword Bearer’ squad under the imperial special department, I haven’t managed to ask which specific squad yet…”
“But from the brief conversation just now between them and members of the Raptor squad, it seems they came to rescue the two squads of the imperial army…”
“With so many formidable squads fallen here, even if it’s a rescue team my father sent, can they successfully save us?”
“Goddess of Fortune, please bless me….”
The thought made Alyosha suddenly lose her confidence.
On Rein’s side.
Having spotted the target, he naturally decided to act at once for the rescue, the longer the delay, the more uncertainties would arise.
So, he observed the enemies in the hall once again.
Suddenly, he noticed that one of the three Blood Curse Nagas in the hall was extremely different.
Previously, he had merely glanced at them briefly, and most of her figure was hidden behind a pillar, so he hadn’t seen her clearly.
This time, as she moved a short distance and shifted her position, he could see her full appearance clearly.
She turned out to be a rare female Blood Curse Naga!
The ancient texts made it clear, just like other Nagas, Blood Curse Nagas were a matriarchal society, which meant that female Blood Curse Nagas were generally more powerful than male Nagas.
This made Rein’s face tighten slightly as he observed her carefully.
Suddenly, this female Blood Curse Naga turned her head toward the direction where Rein was.
Rein’s heart chilled, and he immediately took a step back, darting into the shadow of the passage he had come from.
It was then that the Blood Curse Naga Leader, Garnis, couldn’t help but look puzzled, as she had clearly sensed something there just now.
Just as she was about to send someone to check, her serpentine pupils slightly shrank!
All she saw on that spot of the ground was a sea iguana crawling out.
It was just this little creature…
Thus, Garnis relaxed and diverted her gaze elsewhere.
The sensitivity of her reactions surprised Rein!
This female Naga, with a beautiful appearance, would compare well even to the beautiful woman Jennifer, if it weren’t for the tall fins surrounding her head and her four arms. Although far less muscular than a male Blood Curse Naga, each of her four arms wielded a different melee weapon: a sword, a knife, a short spear, and a trident.
