Chapter 340 Empty Cage (Modified)
Starting again, they walked cautiously until they came to a stone gate carved with a huge fire dragon with five heads.
Entering the stone gate, this is a ten-foot-square room made of stone blocks. There is a huge sealed iron bucket in the center of the room, and many water pipes extend from the bucket.
"This should be the location of the magic water supply system of the underground castle. It should have been idle for a long time, at least a hundred years." Allen speculated looking at the rusty iron bucket.
Passing through where the water system is located, they came to a very special room.
The walls of this room were painted with simple and scrawled runes everywhere, and the paint gave off a faint green glow.
"Dragon rule the land." Hermione translated the runes on the wall.
"It's the legendary dragon again." Allen looked at the room with interest.
The large pit in the center of the house bears evidence of a recent campfire.
"There are some charred—well, giant monster bones in this pit, as well as some charred and deformed armor fragments." Luna speculated standing in front of the pit.
The most eye-catching thing in the whole room is a metal cage in the south.
It had a big hole, and now it was empty, twisted out of shape, and unable to imprison any living beings without repairs.
Allen walked into the cage, squatted down, and observed the situation inside the cage.
"This is—dragon dung, it is very similar to Norbert's dung, judging from the amount of dung and the size of the hole, the dragon is already huge!" Allen, frowning because of the smell, stood up and continued look up.
A wooden table was placed in front of the cage door. There were also many odds and ends on the green tablecloth.
Suddenly, there were intermittent sobbing sounds from the direction of the bed beside the wooden platform.
The three of Allen walked around the wooden platform with vigilant expressions. An old troll with a hunched figure was curled up on the dirty and messy bedroll, and seemed to be asleep.
He looked so sad that even in his sleep he couldn't help sobbing.
But as the three of them approached, he opened his eyes vigilantly, looked at Alan and the others vigilantly, and at the same time moved his body to the corner of the wooden platform, as if this could hide his huge body.
"Who are you? Why are you here?" Hermione tried to communicate with the other party. Although she didn't want the other party to understand what she meant, she tried to make her tone softer and more friendly.
The old troll's expression relaxed a little, and he twisted his body uneasily.
"Mibo raises the holy dragon here, and the evil werewolf stole the holy dragon—Cachix." Mibo's eyes showed fear, and he couldn't help sobbing again, but to the surprise of the three, the name The old troll's intelligence is obviously much higher than that of his kind-for he is still fluent in speech.
"Kachix? Is it the holy dragon you raised?" Seeing that he could communicate, Allen also asked.
However, Mibo was unwilling to answer him.
Allen took out some as dry food snacks and placed them in front of him.
Mibo glanced at the food, became agitated, slowly poked out his upper body from the shadow in the corner, grabbed the food provided by Allen with his wrinkled and huge palms, and quickly retracted it.
"Kachix? Is it the holy dragon you raised?" Allen followed Hermione, lowered his voice as much as possible, looked kind, and asked the question again.
Mibo nodded while swallowing the food.
Alan found many scars on Mibo's body, some of which hadn't even healed, probably all of which were memorials left for him by the profession of raising holy dragons.
"Where are the werewolves? Why did they steal the holy dragon?" Allen asked.
"If you tell us, maybe we can help you find the holy dragon." Hermione persuaded softly.
Mibo tried hard to swallow the food in his mouth, "Mibo doesn't know, the big boss knows. Mibo took you to meet the big boss, Yusdayel. You are good to Mibo, help the troll find the holy dragon, big Good for you, leader."
Although the three of Allen should be regarded as intruders in the eyes of Mibo,
But when Mibo saw the hope of recovering the holy dragon, he still offered to lead Alan and the others to meet the giant leader Yusdayel.
Mibo knew how to avoid triggering the mechanism set by his own people, and led Alan and the others through the bow and arrow traps set by the trolls, to the frontline outpost patrolled by trolls.
It is said to be an outpost, but it is actually a small room.
Rubble was scattered everywhere in this room, and a bonfire was burning in the center of the house, and a few sheets of poor-quality woolen fabrics were thrown everywhere beside the bonfire.
Three ferocious-looking giants stared at Alan and the others vigilantly. The small space and the smokiness of the campfire made the already strong stench on them even more unbearable.
Mibo stepped forward, "I need to bring them to the chief, Yousdayel, and they can help Mibo find the holy dragon."
The trolls looked at the three of Allen suspiciously, "With these three little humans, do you want to take back the holy dragon from the werewolves?"
Allen stepped forward suddenly, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "Perhaps, I can let you judge whether we have the strength to take back the holy dragon from the werewolves."
Allen looked at the empty room on the right, and pointed with his wand. In an instant, a picture of flame rushed out and went straight to that room, turning into a torrent of flame, burning everything in the room.
A few trolls stared at the room dumbfounded, Allen stretched out his wand and pointed, and the stone door closed instantly, blocking the raging fire inside the door.
"Well, you do have strength. Chief Yusdayel is near the throne. However, don't anger the chief and her six elite guards, otherwise, you will definitely be inseparable from this underground castle." The troll pointed out the general direction of the big leader to Allen and the others, and at the same time issued a warning.
The trolls made way for Alan and the others.
Allen was secretly surprised that the IQ of the trolls here was much higher than what he knew.
At the beginning, he was self-confident. With the spells he mastered now, these things were not his opponents at all, so he dared to take Hermione and Luna so deep.
Although now, Allen also firmly believes that the three of them will leave the underground castle safe and sound, but he can't help but raise his vigilance against the creatures in the castle again.
"This is the feeding room of the holy dragon. There are many rats in it. They are the food of Kaziks, but now, no one should pay attention to them." Mibo said sadly, and couldn't help sobbing again.
Hermione gave it a sympathetic look, and seemed to want to go over to comfort her, but was held back by Luna.
Mibo opened the door, and swarms of mice rushed out in an instant, attacking Alan and the others, and the air was full of the smell of mouse feces.
"I think, Alan, a Fiercefire Curse is needed at this time!" Hermione said, and began to use the Freezing Curse to freeze the mice in place.
In such a narrow room, with such a dense population of rats, of course it is impossible to use the Fiendfyre Curse, unless you want to burn yourself to death!
Allen also began to use the freezing spell on a large scale until he rushed out of the breeding room.
