"To be honest, Miss Aurora, I thought you would be the kind of person who wanted to kill me."

Xia De stretched out his hand, the witch hesitated for a moment before holding it, and sighed softly:

"Why did I kill you? What good does it do me? However, this is the first time I've shaken hands with a man since I was an adult."

The witch's hand was very soft, so Xia De asked:

"How does my hand feel?"

"Your hands are rough. Although you are recovering, you can feel that you have probably done heavy work before."

She withdrew her hand, then waved to the top of Xia De's head. The little black spider jumped from Xia De's hair into her palm, and then crawled onto her face, turning into an imperceptible beauty spot under the corner of her eyes.

"So this spider belongs to you? Did you really smell the ocean on me just now?"

"Of course, but not only because you have been to the seaside, but also because you smell like murlocs. I originally thought that you had fought murlocs before you came to Princess Leizia."

said the witch.

"The smell of a mermaid? I haven't met a murloc, oh, I see."

After thinking about it, Xia De realized that it was because he still had the [scales of the drowned mermaid] on his body. In this way, the original owner of the scales was really a family member of the evil **** [Lord of the Scarlet Spiral] from the previous era.

The witch nodded:

"It's good that you understand. Remember to return the ring to me after the matter is over. In addition, the underground cultists are the strongest with the sixth ring. I think as long as you don't provoke it, it will be no problem to escape alive."

Thus, Shad ended his first meeting with the second witch he knew from the Sixth Era.

Knowing that Darkness is most likely going to Tobesk, Shad has no interest in helping the witch find her. After parting from the witch at the door of the room, Xia De found Rezia again. The princess was very worried about Xia De, but she didn't ask Xi Wei Aurora's identity.

"I'm going to take a trip to the underground wine cellar. Rezia, remember to bring your fishing rod with you. If you really encounter problems, even if you expose your identity as a ring warlock, you must go to Miss Aurora for help."

"But compared to the witch, I hope that you will be by my side at dawn."

the princess said softly.

"Of course, I came to Lengshui Port to help you. How could I forget this purpose?"

He replied, Rezia thought about it, and gave Shad a hug:

"Although I don't know what you are going to do, be careful."

Then she gave Xia De a steam bomb, Xia De was surprised, and then carefully put it away.

At this time, there is still an hour before sunrise.

The ring warlock team of the Church of Nature waited on the second floor to attack again before dawn. Although Xia De could not know the situation in the wine cellar from them, Miss Aurora told Xia De directly that there were three ring warlocks and more than a dozen murlocs underground.

Xia De's original plan was to use illusion to enter the wine cellar and steal those texts if he had the chance. But in the wine cellar of the Aurora Manor, there is actually a secret passage connected to the gardener's cottage in the garden.

That secret passage was built when the Aurora family owned this place, and even the murlocs didn't know about it.

So Xia De jumped from the window on the third floor into the raining garden, and braved the rain to find the gardener's cottage with the locked door. After opening the door, I found that it was basically a utility room. The four walls were covered with shelves for metal tools, and there was even a steam engine in the corner.

Push open the corner box and tap the floor a few times to find the trapdoor. After struggling to pull open the trapdoor, the dark hole seemed to lead directly to the underground abyss.

But with the light of your fingertips, you can see that the bottom is only three meters deep.

Unlike Tobesk's underground ruins, this dark passage seems to be only used for emergency escape, so it is very narrow. Xia De even had to lower his head to pass through, and the height of the secret passage was only about 1.7 meters.

On the way down, there was only one fork, one road forward, and the other leading to the storage room where food and water were stored.

So Xia De moved forward along the straight road, and came to the end of this secret passage not long after.

When lighting the front in the dark, Xia De still thought, if he also has a manor, then he must also build complicated secret passages. After all, with such a large space, it would be a pity not to build a secret passage.

According to Ms. Aurora, this secret passage leads to the inner mezzanine of the walls of the wine cellar, where the new wine is stored for aging.

Therefore, when Xia De pushed open the secret door as carefully as possible and climbed out, he could only see rows of wine barrels in front of him, and no trace of the murlocs.

Carefully using the illusion, the silver mist flowed silently against the ground. After coming out of the inner mezzanine of the wine cellar, I finally saw three burly men dressed as sailors guarding the entrance of the wine cellar with guns. The common feature of the three men was that they looked ugly.

In addition to them, Xia De also saw a tall and thin man standing in the shadow at the side~lightnovelpub.net~ This one is a ring warlock, he almost merged with the shadow, if it wasn't for the ear The voice alerted Shad, who couldn't even notice him.

In order to prevent being discovered by the magician, Xia De carefully controlled the mist of illusion to only exist in the surrounding area. But illusion is not invisibility, even if it can achieve a similar effect, it is easy for ring wizards with sensitive senses to spot it.

He could only bend down and lean against the wall, letting rows of wine cabinets stand in front of him. It took a full ten minutes to circle around the edge of the shelf, away from the door of the wine cellar.

The entire wine cellar was pitch black, and it seemed that there was no one else except the four people at the door. So Xia De used the spell [Blood Echo], and sure enough, in the confrontation with the Orthodox Church's team just now, the murloc's injured companion left blood on the ground during the transfer process.

Although the naked eye can't catch it, but in the state of [Blood Echo], Xia De, whose right eye was bloodshot, was able to follow the red halos like road signs in the dark all the way to the end of the wine cellar, And found a hole in the wall.

There should have been a space behind that wall, but it was temporarily closed by a brick wall before it was sold to the Aurora family. When it was opened again tonight, the murlocs seemed to have smashed the wall with a sledgehammer, and the bricks and stones on the ground had not even been cleaned.

A cold, damp and fishy wind came from behind the hole in the wall. At the same time, faint candlelight and a strange blue light could be seen in the darkness, and whispers that could not be discerned could be heard.

"It's windy... Is there another exit behind the wall?"

This is what surprised Xia De the most.
