Main Text Chapter 321 Rescue
Temporarily suppressing his strange thoughts, Angel asked curiously: "How to wake them up?"
...
On the road again, Angel felt much more relaxed. As Sanders said, when he let go of his suppressed instincts, he was completely at ease in this fog. The strange shadows in the fog looked funny to him, the strange ballads sounded pleasant to him, and even the mist in the air made him feel fresh.
After letting go of the shackles, Angel's progress also accelerated a lot. Along the way, he could see "clowns" dancing and singing everywhere on the streets from a distance. The whole Night Demon City seemed to have become a city of singing and dancing, although the singing was a bit creepy.
However, the "City of Singing and Dancing" was limited to places that Angel could not see. Whenever he walked over, all the "clowns" would disperse. The place where Angel walked should be called the "City of Silence".
Angel did not chase after them. According to Sanders, he did not need to wake these people up one by one. As long as the source was solved, the rest were just minor problems.
Since he entered from the north gate, he had to cross most of Night Demon City to get to the white-walled entrance where the Twilight Well was located. Angel thought about the route and decided to cross from the center of the main road to the south city. Since he had to go through the center, Angel planned to go to the palace on the way.
Near the palace was where the dignitaries of Night Demon City gathered, and the Duke of Moya's Mansion was located here.
The Twilight Well was near the south gate, and Angel planned to fulfill his promise first, rescue the Moya people for Lydia, and escort them to the south gate. When this promise was fulfilled, he would go back to the Twilight Well without any trouble.
Angel had no means of transportation, and it took him two hours to walk from the north gate to the central palace. This was the speed at which he ran at full speed, which showed how huge Night Demon City, where millions of people lived, was.
After seeing the palace gate, the next step was not troublesome. Because the mansion closest to the palace gate was the Duke of Moya's Mansion.
The Duke of Moya's Mansion in the mist looked deep and quiet.
The door was not locked, and Angel pushed it lightly and walked in. After walking a few steps, the familiar strange ballad came again. Angel looked and saw several clown maids rushing into the fog, and a clown holding a knife directly climbed out from the three-meter-high wall.
As he went deeper into the Night Demon City, Angel gradually discovered a pattern.
There were many "clowns" in the fog, but none of them dared to face him directly. Perhaps it was fear, or for other reasons, Angel was not sure. It was okay not to face the clowns directly, their twisted and weird movements were not good-looking, Angel did not like them, and even hated them a little.
——This was the first time Angel felt disgusted since entering the Night Demon City.
Angel even vaguely felt that perhaps these clowns knew that he "hated" them, so they tried their best not to appear in front of him. At first, Angel could still see people from a distance and bowed to him; but later, wherever he went, there was absolutely no mutant within the visibility range.
The Duke's Mansion was very large, and because of his appearance, there were no "living things" around. Angel searched for a long time, but did not see the so-called entrance to the cave, let alone save Whitbiton's father and brother.
Angel wondered whether he should call Sanders to ask for help. But he had no control over when Sanders spoke, and he did not know the remote voice technique. Even if he knew the remote voice technique, he did not have enough energy to locate Sanders in the other dimension.
At a loss, Angel suddenly heard a creaking sound from a room on the right.
Angel noticed that there was no strange singing accompanied by the creaking sound. Does this mean that there are no parasitic mutants in the room?
Angel thought about it, stood near the door, and told Toby to be alert. He used the magic hand, and a transparent giant hand with blue light appeared out of thin air. Then, under Angel's close gaze, the magic hand slowly opened the door.
Angel stretched out his mental tentacles and found that it was actually a study room. The one making the creaking sound was not a living person as he imagined, but a purple-gray big-headed puppet floating in the air.
Angel knew that Honglian had left a puppet in the Duke of Moya's mansion, but he had never seen it, so he was not sure.
"Lord Honglian?" Angel asked softly.
As his voice fell, the big-headed puppet floated out of the study, swinging its thin arms.
"As Lord Sanders said, you will not be parasitized." Lydia's voice came from the mouth of the big-headed puppet, "I really want to explore it..."
Before Lydia finished her words, she heard a nagging noise from the other side, as if Jingji was talking to Lydia.
"Lord Honglian, I didn't find any living people in the Duke's mansion. I want to know where Tebichu and his son are?" Angel said respectfully after confirming that there was no sound from the other side.
The big-headed puppet creaked and pointed at the study: "There is a secret passage behind the bookshelf, go there by yourself."
After that, the big-headed puppet walked towards the outside of the Duke's Mansion. It was obvious that Lydia did not intend to follow him.
With no one following him, Angel felt at ease and walked into the dark study. It took him a while to find the mechanism to open the bookshelf.
The cave was very long. The first section of the road was dark. It took Angel two minutes to reach the place where there was firelight. In the tunnel, he could see the unlocked storage room from time to time, which was full of various daily necessities. With these supplies, Domino might not have any problem living underground for half a year.
Walking in the tunnel, Angel had an inexplicable illusion of returning to the Crypt Wilderness. However, the cave built by Duke Tebichu was obviously not as large as the Crypt Wilderness. Not long after walking, Angel heard human voices.
At the end of the cave, there was a wide hall. The outer perimeter of the hall was divided into several small compartments by glass. People could be seen in each small compartment, mostly guards in armor.
In the center of the hall, on a high chair covered with carpet, sat a young man in a black cloak. He looked up at the top of his head in a daze. Around him, there was only a servant with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks following him.
As soon as Angel stepped into the hall, he attracted everyone's attention.
In less than ten seconds, the guards in each small compartment rushed out and guarded the young man.
"Who are you?" The one who spoke was the servant next to the young man.
Perhaps Angel's clothes were too loose and it seemed that he could not hide his weapons. In addition, his eyes were not crazy and he was not very old. The guards only protected the young man and were alert to him, but did not fight him.
The servant's voice made the young man who had been looking up at the sky retract his gaze and look in the direction of Angel.
"Who is Domino?" Angel said lightly.
Young man: "I am Domino, who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am. You just need to know that I am entrusted by Lord Honglian to rescue you." Angel said this and turned his head: "I'll give you five minutes to pack up. I'll wait for you at the entrance of the cave."
After Angel said this, he turned around and walked back.
Domino hurriedly shouted: "Are you the wizard? Can we really go out now? There are infectious diseases outside. Won't they infect us?"
Angel's voice floated out from the dark cave-
"I can come here, so I can naturally take you out."
After that, no matter how Domino shouted, Angel did not answer again.
Angel returned to the study, sat at the desk, and looked at the mist outside the open door. The irritability in his heart when facing the living people became much calmer at this moment.
In this mist, not only is weird not rejected, but humans are rejected. Angel has already felt that his originally happy mood has become uncomfortable and boring when he sees humans. On the contrary, he feels much more comfortable when facing the ugly mutants.
"This is definitely not my nature." Angel's eyes were filled with worry. What is dominating his emotions?
After a long silence, Angel couldn't help sighing and muttering: "Shava, Sharva."
Who are you?
...
Five minutes later, Angel saw Domino coming out of the cave. In addition to him, all the guards followed him.
It seemed that Domino had made a desperate bet and brought everyone out. This was a gamble, and Domino made a bet. Success wins everything, failure loses everything.
Angell's original annoyance towards Domino disappeared slightly when he saw his courage to gamble. At least Domino dared to gamble, which was worthy of his affirmation.
"Are you sure you want to take everyone with you?" Angell said, "If something unexpected happens, I may not be able to protect so many people."
"Master Wizard, as long as Master Domino can leave, it doesn't matter if we all die." The one who spoke was the servant beside Domino. None of the guards around him had any objection to what he said. Angell suspected that if Domino asked them to die, these guards would do it.
"The loyalty of the Shadow Servant Clan is indeed extraordinary." Angell sighed in his heart.
"Then follow it. In fact, even if you are infected... it may not be a bad thing for you." Angell said vaguely. Once the parasites are really expelled, the parasitic objects will actually gain huge benefits, at least their physical strength will increase a lot.
However, Angell could not guarantee that he could expel all the parasites as Sanders said, so he could only say it in such a vague way at this time.
"Being parasitized, there is only one way to go..." Domino's expression was a little gloomy.
When Domino was talking, Angel felt that the guards behind him were arranged in a strange way. They were surrounded by a dark mass, and the tall man was deliberately chosen in front, as if to block his sight.
Angel used his mental power to probe, and now there were two guards carrying a sack at the back, and the sack was still struggling frantically.
One of the guards frowned and whispered: "What's going on? Didn't you just inject a tranquilizer into the Duke? He didn't move before, why did he start struggling violently as soon as he came out?"
"I don't know. If he continues to struggle, he can't stop it in front, right?" Another guard also frowned.
Angel's movements were frozen, and his eyes were looking at the direction where the sack was.
Seeing this, Domino swallowed his saliva: "Master Wizard, I..."
Angel glanced at him with his peripheral vision, then directly waved away the crowd and walked to the side of the two guards carrying the sack.
"Master Wizard." The two guards looked at the sack, then at Angel, their faces turned pale. But even so, they did not put down the sack.
"Open it." Angel said.
The guards looked at each other, and Domino rushed over: "Master Wizard, it's not that I want to hide it, but what's inside is..."
"It's Duke Tebiqiu, I know." Angel glanced at Domino: "Let him out, it's rare that there is a target who can't avoid me, I have something I want to verify."
