Fairy’s Box
Chapter 69: Leading the way with glory
There was no road at the bottom of the lake, the mud was wet, and the car was slipping. The two men in black robes scolded and pushed the cart forward cautiously, but no one noticed that they were being followed.
It is estimated that he did not expect that outsiders would discover the secrets at the bottom of the lake. The three knights gradually stopped and followed the two to the east. The small is the size of an adult and the large is the size of a bison.
At the easternmost edge of the lake bottom edge, a structure similar to a mine gradually came into view, and the rough wooden door was half-covered, exuding a strong smell of blood.
The two men in black robes pushed the car in. Yale and the others hid outside the door and waited for a while, only to hear the sound of a sharp knife cutting through the leather and the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.
While hesitating whether to rush in, they pushed the cart out again, less than ten steps away. The female knight held one hand and made a grabbing motion, and the male knights quickly and silently leaned over. A few seconds later, the two men in black robes, together with their car, were overturned, and they arrived at a mound in a drowsy state.
"It's you!" After seeing their faces, one of the thin one-eyed men was taken aback.
Nicole raised his jaw and squatted down with a smile: "You know us, probably the villagers of Desa Village."
"How did you find this place?" Another sturdy black-robed man asked in a loud voice.
"This question is very complicated, where to start talking about it." The female knight retracted her fingers, turned around with squinted eyes, and tapped his forehead: "Is it from a private mine, or from killing Wam indiscriminately, or... You create artificial earthquakes, try to bury the truth start?"
"How do you know!?" The sturdy black-robed man was taken aback, then immediately pursed his lips, his face pale.
"Gegu, you idiot, you can't...!" The one-eyed man struggled to scold, and continued to want to say something, but Yale pulled his elbow back into his mouth.
"Shut him up." Nicole glanced over in disgust, and Clark simply removed his chin.
"It's strange why I know? The first second I came here, everything was clear at a glance. Desa Village was originally a mine, and the underground was riddled with holes. With your ability to hollow out the bottom of the lake, you can do a little bit to create an artificial earthquake. What difficulty is there? If you say that, you killed the Vam too, right?"
"I won't say anything, bah!" The sturdy black-robed man stared at her resentfully and spat out a mouthful of saliva.
Yale grabbed the top of his head, removed his chin, pulled him up and smiled at his companion: "Give me three minutes."
After getting a nod from the two of them, he dragged the black-robed man to the back of the mound, only to hear a series of crackling noises. A minute later, the black-haired boy behind the mound asked, "Would you like to talk now?"
He dragged the muddy black-robed man back and threw it in front of Nicole and the others: "He is willing to speak."
Closing his chin for him, the man exchanged tears and hurriedly said, "I'm Gegu, he's Jedu, both are villagers of Desa Village..."
Through the man's rambled statement, they learned that the villagers of Desa Village were indeed descendants of miners twenty years ago.
After the copper mine was depleted and the land was abandoned by the mine owners, Raul, who was only a teenager at the time, claimed to have received divine grace and dug out high-quality ore in the already abandoned southern mine.
Seeing ore emerge from the depleted mine with their own eyes, most miners believed his words and believed that Raul was the messenger of God.
And a small part of them, united with the former mine owners, tried to annex the land again. When they brought the thugs aggressively over, Raul reluctantly handed over the mine, claiming that those who blasphemed would be punished. The next day, the mine collapsed for no reason, and all those involved in the misappropriation of the mine, including the original owner of the mine, were buried alive.
After this time, the remaining miners were undoubtedly convinced of the identity of Raul's angel. With such a halo, he publicly announced the doomsday prophecy, saying that soon, the world will be destroyed, and only one can be saved by being in a shelter. And this lake in the north is their "ark".
From what Gegu knew, the bottom of the lake was also constructed by Raul with "divine power", and by killing Vam, they were trying to perform some kind of ritual.
"Let me go, I have already said everything I know." The man sobbed and said, as long as he saw a certain black-haired knight, his body trembled uncontrollably.
"It seems that he knows a little about this, let's ask another one." Yale leaned over and dragged One Eye to the back of the mound. Within thirty seconds, the guy wet his pants and confessed everything.
Raul has done a good job of keeping secrets, and these two guys know about the same. According to them, the villagers are divided into three areas according to the division of labor, namely the sacrificial area, the workshop area, and the animal husbandry area. The three areas are not allowed to communicate privately, so that they only know what they are responsible for.
Clark's face was livid: "Gods can't be personified, forged oracles, and announced doomsday prophecies. It is undoubtedly a cult! This alone is an unforgivable sin."
"Take us to the area you are responsible for." Nicole stood up after thinking for a while.
Without waiting for the two of them to say anything, Yale and Clark each mentioned one, and after a little intimidation, they honestly started to lead the way.
The knight galloped with all his might, far faster than the war horse, and in a few minutes he arrived at the stocking area mentioned by the two people.
In front of the door, Clark knocked Gegu unconscious, put on his black robe, and walked in under the leadership of the trembling Jiedu.
Nicole and Yalei waited quietly outside the door until a "Go!" came from inside the door, and they rushed in quickly, knocking down the seven villagers in black robes.
This so-called stocking area covers an area of about three acres, separated by sidewalks in the middle, and on the left is a six-lane, six-foot-deep artificial trough, scattered with a dozen warm eggs.
On the right is a huge, deep tunnel, where dozens of Wham juveniles are gnawing on the moss.
Seeing the female knight's inquiring line of sight, Jiedu immediately explained like a bamboo tube: "The left side is still a warm egg that hasn't hatched. After hatching, it will be moved to the right side to feed. This thing is easy to feed, eat everything, moss, grass , wood... I'm so hungry I even eat mud..."
"Say the point!" Yale's friendly reminder.
"Yes! Yes..." The one-eyed man shivered, almost limp, wiped his cold sweat and said, "As long as Vum reaches adulthood and enters the transformation stage, we will send its cocoon to the workshop area, that's it."
Clark walked to the end of the tunnel, grabbed a handful of soil with his body, rubbed it in his palm, and said to his companion, "The soil in this part is new and seems to have been damaged."
"Yes! It was indeed damaged, wise!" Jiedu flattered, and after finding that no one had dumped him, he quickly changed his attitude and explained honestly:
"Half a year ago, more than a dozen wams entered the mature stage one after another, and we were responsible for sending them to the workshop area. It's all my fault, the idiot Gegu, who confused the latest mature stage with the last two, and ended up staying here and there. It only cracked out and entered the mature stage. After a big riot at the bottom of the lake, he was injured by the village chief and drove away, but I don’t know what happened, that beast can only be injured and not die, and he often seeks revenge from us.”
Then he quickly added: "It's the one you beat down."
Yale nodded and said, "That **** Raul probably had no choice but to lend us our hand."
"This is good news." Nicole's eyes lit up, and she clapped her hands and said cheerfully, "Prove that there is no power beyond us at the bottom of this lake."
"But it's better to be careful." Clark thought for a while, and pointed in the direction of the egg of Wham: "According to the area of the trough and the bones outside, there may not be so many Wham on Celtic Island. Where do you get so many eggs?"
"I really don't know that." The one-eyed man glanced at Yalei secretly, fearing that he would be abused again, and said hurriedly, "The village chief said it was divine grace."
"Don't be afraid." Nicole looked at him with a smile and said softly, "As long as you are willing to cooperate and help us destroy this cult den, I promise to take credit for you."
The Czech Republic immediately became excited. The Rosévian Knights promised the most, he was just the second generation of the miners, the doomsday prophecy or something, only those foolish old bones believed. To be able to leave this rancid village in a generous way, and to have a chance to soar, couldn't be better.
So he began to take the initiative to confess, not only that, but even the awakened Gegu rushed to start talking about some details.
