"Hmm?"
Upon hearing that, Meg walked straight to the cell in the corner. He had heard from Hannah that Ferdinand's uncle and aunt, whose love was stronger than gold, were also locked up in this dungeon. Now, it seemed like the information was indeed very accurate.
"Do you know where Ferdinand has been brought to?" Meg moved the torch forward, and saw the situation in the cell clearly.
This was a cell that was only five to six square meters in size. Just by approaching it, they could smell a foul stench. A middle-aged orc couple was clinging to the metal bars. Their hair and clothes were in a mess, and the wounds on their bodies showed how inhumane they had been.
"I'm Romeo, and this is my wife, Juliet. The chief's wife is my elder sister. We're not sure where Ferdinand has been brought to, and we're very anxious now. " The middle-aged orc shook his head, and said with a pained expression, "Ever since Gary rebelled and killed the king, we became his prisoners. Since then, we've been locked up in several prisons and dungeons. We were only locked up in this newly built dungeon about 10 days ago. This was the first time we saw Ferdinand. He's become skinnier. He must have suffered a lot during this period. Someone entered his cell this morning, and took him away not long after. We don't know where they went. "
"This name …" Meg raised his eyebrows. He felt that something was amiss.
"We heard from those fellows that they were going to kill us at Gary's conferring banquet, and the banquet is in the next two days. Gary might have captured Ferdinand and brought him to the palace. There are the most powerful and tightest guards there, and it's also the safest place." Juliet appeared much calmer as she analyzed the situation.
Meg frowned. Romeo and Juliet's words meant that Ferdinand was no longer in this dungeon. They were still a step too late, and ended up missing.
"Someone's here." Irina's lowered voice sounded.
"Can you take us with you?" Romeo looked at Meg, and then at the tunnel. He gritted his teeth, and said, "If you can't, please bring my wife along and help her leave this dirty and dark place. Please."
"Can you walk?" Meg looked back at Irina.
"Killing him won't be a problem. It's just that we might be exposed. The other three Level 10 experts will be here soon." Irina glanced at Romeo and Juliet and frowned slightly. "We can only take one with us. The teleportation circle is very small."
"This …" Meg looked at the two people in the cell. Their original plan tonight was to rescue Ferdinand, and there was no space for a second person.
"Please take her away. She is an elegant woman. She should not stay in this dark and damp dungeon. A delicate flower should bloom in a sunny place." Romeo said affectionately.
"You are my sunshine. If I leave alone, even if I'm not in this dungeon, this world will become even more cruel to me. We have an agreement, so how can I abandon you and leave by myself? " Juliet shook her head, and turned to look at Meg. A smile appeared on her face that was covered in dirt and dust, and she said, "Don't worry about us. He definitely won't leave me alone. You guys go. Don't get caught."
Meg saw happiness and calmness in this smile. After a moment of silence, he nodded, and said, "Okay."
"Let's go," Meg said softly as he turned and walked toward Irina.
"If the two of us work together, it shouldn't be difficult to kill that guy outside." Irina looked in Romeo and Juliet's direction.
"If that guy outside dies, he will probably die before we find Ferdinand." Meg shook his head.
"I'm really not suited to playing hide-and-seek." Irina rolled her eyes. All she could think of was flipping the table.
Footsteps could be heard from the direction of the tunnel. The orcs locked up in the cells were screaming for Meg and Juliet to save them.
When Meg stepped into the circle of light that lit up on the ground, he saw a little girl who had been squeezed to the edge of a cell. She reached out a little hand to him. Her eyes seemed a little numb in the darkness, and the little hand that reached out from the iron bars was just standing there blankly, as if she had lost all hope in everything.
Irina's gaze also landed on that little girl. A pale gold teleportation portal lit up under their feet. With a flash of light, the two of them disappeared on the spot.
Almost at the same time, the golden-armored orc Bazzle dashed down from the tunnel. He gripped the iron rod tightly in his hand, and sized up his surroundings vigilantly.
His gaze landed on the stone doors that had been destroyed by something, and he squinted his eyes. With his immense strength, it was not difficult for him to smash these stone doors.
However, there were inscriptions that Darryl had personally placed on these stone doors. Even if he wanted to destroy them quickly, he would have to enter his beast form first.
Furthermore, these stone doors that had been destroyed did not have any traces of magic on them. There were also no traces of strong magic elements around them.
In other words, the other party had used his terrifying strength to smash these stone doors one by one, and entered the dungeon in the simplest and most direct way.
The dungeon guards should have all been killed. The way they died was also very direct. They should have been smacked to death by some kind of blunt object.
After coming to this conclusion, Bazzle's expression turned serious, and he became even more cautious as he moved forward.
The other party was very likely to be a 10th-tier powerhouse who specialized in strength, just like him.
There was no other person in the Falk Tribe, so the only possibility was that there were other species that wanted to interfere with the Falk Tribe's affairs.
Judging from the time, the other party should still be in this dungeon now. He had blocked the exit, so there might be a fierce battle coming up.
Fortunately, this was the Falk Tribe, after all. He only needed to ask Gary for help, and they would be able to rush over immediately.
"Come out. I see you," Bazzle said, trying to bluff.
The passageway was completely silent. There was a bloody smell in the air, and the orcs in the cells were all curled up in a corner, shivering as if they were frightened.
No one responded to Bazzle.
…
"Y-you brought her out." On the cliff, a golden light lit up. Meg looked at the little girl who appeared beside them at the same time, and couldn't help but look at Irina in shock.
That little girl looked to be about 10 years old, and was clearly a little dazed. She looked around at the white world outside, and the thin clothes she was wearing made her shiver. Her eyes gradually brightened as she breathed in the fresh and free air.
"She's the one who shouldn't be there the most. Those fellows deserve to die," Irina said to that little girl with a pitiful expression.
