Chapter 270 Trouble breaks out
Chapter 270 Trouble breaks out
Felix woke up from his panic.
His body was tied tightly to the pillar at some point, unable to move.
"Where am I?"
Felix tried to break free from the ropes, but only ended up causing his body to be strangled painfully.
He barely managed to look out the window, but there was nothing but endless darkness.
A situation that was as bad as it could be—he had been kidnapped.
If it were an ordinary person, he would probably be trembling with fear by now.
But Comrade Xiaofei had seen big scenes after all, and his sharp mind even realized the strangeness of the matter.
Why was he, an imperial citizen with nothing, kidnapped like this?
Not dead immediately.
The answer is almost obvious then.
He is bait used to attract others.
"Gods of the Empire, brother, you are in big trouble!" Felix suddenly laughed and even gave up struggling.
He scanned the room, trying to find any trace of the other person in the darkness.
"I'm not complaining, but that's a dirty trick." Seeing he couldn't find anyone, Felix began to ramble into the endless darkness. "Brother, you have no idea who you've messed with. If you'd taken the time to find out, you probably wouldn't have done this!"
"Don't be too angry, buddy. I understand..." Felix said earnestly, "People make mistakes all the time... Sorry, that shouldn't be limited to 'people'... I mean, everyone makes mistakes, and sometimes they get confused... It's hard to always be right!"
The darkness remained thick, as if Felix was speaking only to the air.
But Felix didn't care. He swallowed and continued to mutter.
"It's not that I'm picky, it's just that my mouth is so dry and my throat is sore. A glass of water or wine would be nice..." Felix paused. "Just kidding, brother, you're lucky to have met me! Bards not only ask for wine, they charge you for it! But I'm different. I'm a natural at sharing. You can hear all kinds of thrilling stories for free... They're all personal experiences..."
Felix dragged out the last word, and the cheerful expression on his face was totally unlike that of a trapped person.
He seemed to completely ignore the current situation and turned it into his own one-man story sharing session.
"I believe that no matter how knowledgeable you are, you've never seen a group of hungry ogres waiting patiently for their meal to be prepared. It's simply a miracle!" Felix said with great emotion, "You know, brother, even a courageous person like me wouldn't dare approach hungry ogres. But the chefs of Zhendan... should I say 'cooks'? Anyway, they're an amazing group of people. Maybe Zhendan has a god in charge of food. If you cook well, maybe you'll receive his blessing..."
Felix laughed dryly and continued to swallow saliva to lubricate his throat.
There seemed to be a slight noise in the silent night, and Felix keenly captured the tiny changes.
"My apologies, brother!" Felix suddenly raised his voice. "How could I have forgotten this! I actually forgot to introduce myself and just started rambling on... My apologies again, brother. Please allow me to start from the beginning."
"My name is Felix, an ordinary Imperial... yes, ordinary..."
"The person I really want to introduce to you is not me, but my comrade..."
"They are the real experts. Beating many of them at once is a piece of cake!"
The corners of Felix's mouth rose uncontrollably, and then he began to tell the story.
"My first comrade, Gotrek..."
boom--
"Watch out for the ghouls!"
Elspeth discovered a larger figure hiding in the darkness and quickly alerted the two men who were rushing around.
When the ghoul saw that he had been discovered, he immediately pounced on the two defenseless people.
They are much stronger than zombies and skeletons, and it is easy for them to tear imperial soldiers into pieces, including their armor.
"Gotrek, you cut my side."
Turning around was too troublesome, so Liu Li ignored the danger behind him and ran straight towards the zombie that was rushing towards Gotrek.
The dragon claws swung out mercilessly, tearing the attacker's flesh and blood, and then exerted force to forcibly pull the flesh and blood and bones away from the body.
"I've got it done here."
Gotrek's voice also came at this time.
The two of them cooperated with each other and solved the threats behind each other at the same time.
"Elspeth, are you still breathing?"
Liu Li asked Elspeth behind him, who nodded quickly.
"Yes, it's closer!"
The hall on the second floor had turned into a rancid and bloody tomb, and the smell was affecting Elspeth's pursuit at all times.
She had to spend more time and energy to lock onto Felix's location.
"We see the stairs, let's go straight up."
Liu Li and Gao Trek killed their way through the second floor with great efficiency, intending to rush to the third floor in one go, or even the top floor of the clock tower.
But someone clearly wasn't willing to let them have their way.
Two armored vampires blocked their path.
The aura they exude is stronger than that of a dozen zombies.
"The ant's struggle ends here."
"We will be your real opponents."
Two corpse demon kings stood at the stairs, one on the left and one on the right, with expressions that showed they were in a dead end.
"They are corpse kings, vampires designed for close combat..." Elspeth paused, then took a half step back. "I believe you."
The power of the Corpse Demon King is talked about with great relish among witch hunters.
Superb swordsmanship, strange body movements, and a body that can repair itself.
These are simply too difficult for witch hunters to defeat.
Elspeth wanted to explain the characteristics of the Corpse King in detail, but the current race against time didn't seem to allow him enough time.
Besides, Gotrek and Liu Li didn't seem to need her to say anything more.
"Where is Felix?" Liu Li asked indifferently.
"That Imperial sissy?" A corpse king laughed. "He's in the top floor room and will be drained of blood soon. If you..."
The Corpse Demon King wanted to state other conditions, but he found that the shadow of the person in front of him suddenly moved, and then a black shadow was getting closer and closer to him.
thump—
Liu Li punched the Corpse Demon King in the face, and the latter had to hit several wooden partitions before it could stop.
His face was covered in blood and flesh, with a noticeable sunken area.
The other corpse demon king was horrified. He didn't expect his companion to be killed so easily.
"you……"
But before he could open his mouth, Gotrek's rune axe cut him in two.
Instant kill!
Crisp and neat.
"Yes, it seems our judgment is correct." said Elspeth.
Felix was in the top floor room, only a few dozen steps away from them.
"Let's go!"
Gotrek waited no longer and strode forward.
