A monster's face was reflected on the smooth blade of the sword. Booth was lying on the ground, mumbling something. Reina stood not too far away, silently listening to him.
He spoke of his tragic past. He had once been a general of a kingdom, and his father had been a famous general. Sadly, because of the king's incompetence, the commoners lived in dire straits. In the end, he had been defeated by a rebel army, and then transformed into a terrifying monster by someone who looked very similar to Reina through dark magic.
Afterwards, he spoke in a trembling voice. They had killed an entire city of commoners, as well as soldiers who had wanted to surrender, turning them into walking corpses to attack the enemy.
In the end, even after using such despicable methods, they had still lost. The enemy was stronger than them.
Klaus. He mentioned this person, and told Reina that the Seventh Hero, Klaus, was the ruler of the Wussen Empire. He had disguised himself as a human, and had taken over the position of king of the Kali Empire, and …
"I should have been killed. At that time, I couldn't move, and I was much larger than I am now. They wanted to kill me, and I agreed with them. But he believed that I could still be of use."
"He?"
Reina frowned.
"Klaus, the Seventh Hero, the Demon King of the Wussen Empire. He understood humans very well. To humans, he was their most terrifying enemy."
Booth sat up. The wounds on his body had long since healed. Reina could see that his muscles were wriggling like worms, able to move to any part of his body.
"But you are now his subordinate. You work for him."
Reina voiced her suspicions. She had a bad premonition. Did Booth want her to deal with Klaus?
Booth was silent for a few seconds.
"He promised me that as long as I worked for him, he would heal my father, and that his reputation would not be affected by me."
Hearing this, Reina took a deep breath.
"Then I think he's a pretty good person. At least you and your father both survived."
Booth frowned. He neither denied nor confirmed Reina's words.
"If you want to escape, I can help you."
Reina believed that her teleportation magic could prevent others from finding his whereabouts, including herself.
Booth shook his head. He suddenly looked at Reina and said, "I want you to do something for me. Someone needs to know about this."
Then, he took out a blood-stained iron plate from his clothes.
"Tell what I said to the Dragon Boat Empire's Prince Soaring Dragon and this sign. He will know."
Looking at the iron plate, Reina felt that it was troublesome. She frowned slightly, but in the end, she still took it. She didn't want to owe anyone anything, let alone a life.
"I'll do my best."
She took the token, and suddenly, a dim image appeared in her mind. Reina felt a stabbing pain in her head. She seemed to have seen an injured person in a dungeon, and he seemed to have given her something.
"What's wrong? Are you hurt? "
Booth noticed that Reina was acting strangely. He was worried that she was injured.
"I'm fine."
Reina shook her head, trying to clear her mind. These fragments of memory would occasionally appear in her mind. She believed that these were her forgotten memories, but she couldn't recall them. Every time she wanted to explore these fragments of memory, she would feel that her mind was blank. It was as if she was separated from the sea of clouds.
At this moment, there was a rumbling sound, and the ground shook.
Earthquake?
When the two reacted, they looked up. The ceiling that was damaged by the battle suddenly fell down. In a flash, they avoided the huge rocks and came to the empty space in the tunnel.
What's going on?
The two of them immediately thought of the same reason.
"Eternal Furnace!"
… …
In the huge basement, the source of the pipes all came from here. The floor was made of metal. The metal had strange carvings on it, and it flashed frequently.
There were many bottles and jars in the room that had fallen into the air. They were colorful, and bubbles kept coming out of them.
There wasn't a single thing here that Reina recognized.
The floor continued to tremble as the two of them saw their companion, Fu Yin, standing in the middle of the room. In front of her was a large green pool. There were a few broken pipes above her head that were constantly spewing out white smoke. Behind her, there were two damaged puppets. They were rather tattered and had now become scrap metal.
Fu Yin sensed the footsteps behind her and turned around. When she saw the two of them, she revealed a happy expression.
"You came at the right time! Quick! Help me. "
Hearing this, Reina walked forward without a word. She saw the pool. It was very deep, and the missing werewolf was at the bottom. He was at the bottom, pulling a valve.
"What is he doing?"
"The entrance to the furnace is at the bottom of the water. Those out-of-control puppets have already entered. If they succeed, this city will be completely finished," Fu Yin said anxiously.
Fu Yin said anxiously. Linnai, who was beside her, jumped into the pool without saying a word. She was like a fish, swimming quickly in the water and arrived beside the werewolf in an instant. He was holding his breath, his mouth bulging. When he saw Linnai, he revealed a shocked expression. Then, he nodded and swam towards the water surface.
The water was Reina's main battlefield. She could breathe underwater and control the surrounding water.
She grabbed the valve, twisted it, and opened it with a bang. However, just as she opened a crack, red light emerged from the ground. Following that, a large number of bubbles floated out, blocking Reina's vision. There was a puppet inside!
Lena immediately raised her hand, and the bubble turned into her trident. In the water, the trident shone with a phosphorescent light. She fiercely stabbed the trident into the gap of the well door. A dull sound was heard, and she immediately opened the round door. The puppet's head was pierced through, and green liquid kept leaking out. She grabbed the trident and swung it hard, breaking the puppet's head. It disappeared into the liquid at lightning speed.
The people on the shore waited anxiously. The werewolf surfaced and took deep breaths. He opened his mouth and shouted at a strange device.
"How is it?"
"It's too deep. We can't go down," the werewolf said.
The werewolf said. Fu Yin gritted her teeth. She lifted her head and looked around the room, trying to see if there was anything that could help Lena who was underwater.
Looking at the complicated pipes, she soon saw that the pipes were gathered in one place, and they had never been to that place. Hence, Fu Yin stood up and walked towards the pipes, arriving at the back of the room.
However, there, she saw a strange device, a helmet connected to a pipe. Although it was covered with dust, it did not seem damaged.
Fu Yin did not think much about it. She ran over and picked up the helmet. After hesitating for a moment, she put it on her head.
Suddenly, a voice entered her ears: The brain is awakening.
Then, with a rumble, a passage suddenly opened in the floor behind her. A glass jar filled with blue liquid slowly rose. Fu Yin turned around and was horrified to find a pale-skinned dwarf inside.
