When he came to this conclusion, Angel turned his head and looked around, trying to see if there were other injured people nearby. Otherwise, where did the blood on the woman come from?
However, he saw nothing. It was a long corridor with pitch black on both sides. Occasionally, a wall lamp was burning, but the light from the wall lamp could only illuminate a range of one or two meters. Other than that, everything was dark.
It's all bleak.
Anyway, there was an illusion as a target, so Angel simply cast a light spell.
He controlled the light technique and moved back and forth for tens of meters.
Nothing was found, and no one could be seen except the woman in front of him.
What's even more strange is that not only did Angel not find the injured person, he didn't even find any blood.
If the floor had an automatic cleaning function, that would be fine. However, there was a lot of blood dripping on the track where the woman had just moved, and on the ground where she lay. This means that the floor had not been cleaned, or had not been cleaned in a short period of time.
Function of blood.
Then who is the owner of the blood stains on her body? How did she suddenly appear here, and no blood stains can be seen elsewhere?
Angel once again observed the corridor on both sides of the window. The floor was light yellow, so blood stains could be clearly seen. But except for the blood stains where the woman was hiding, the floor was clean without any stains.
Could it be that she really appeared out of thin air?
Angel walked to the place where the woman had been hiding, which was the corner by the window. There were obvious drops of blood on the floor, as well as a bloody footprint. But other than that, there were no blood spots around.
This woman is not very strong. She has just entered the stage of junior apprentice at most. If someone with this strength can use space transfer spells, he will not believe it. But if it is said that she does not appear out of thin air, it does not make sense.
.
Could it be that she came in through the wall? That's not right. There is air outside and a drainage pipe outside. If she passes through the wall, he will definitely find it...
"Hey, is there a drainage pipe outside?"
No! Angel suddenly remembered something!
He walked to the window and looked outside. His eyes suddenly opened wide. The end of the drainage pipe was on the third floor. In other words, the drainage pipe turned inside on the third floor!
But the place where the drain pipe turns into the interior is the corridor. Where is there any place for drainage?! Moreover, he had not found any traces of pipes in the corner before!
That's all. Angel also noticed something when he was climbing the drainage pipe.
There was a swishing sound of liquid flowing in the drain pipe. He didn't pay attention to it at the time, but now that he thinks about it, it feels very strange. The drain pipe suddenly disappeared at the third floor of the wall, but where did the liquid inside come from?
Could there be a mysterious hollow place between the drainage pipe and the wall?
As soon as this thought came up, Angel was suddenly stunned.
Why can't there be a hollow place? In the bizarre wizarding world, what is impossible? Fish fly in the sky, birds swim in the water, they are everywhere. It is even possible that there is a world hidden behind the mirror. How can a wall not exist?
Hollow place?
It would not be difficult for Angel himself to create a hollow place in the middle. What's more, the owner here is an official wizard!
Thinking of this, Angel let the illusion go back to the place where the woman was hiding before, and stretched out his hand to press against the wall.
Angel became one with the illusion, feeling the energy fluctuations behind the wall.
For a moment, a smile appeared on Angel's face. As he expected, the wall was engraved with expanding magic patterns, and there was indeed a room hidden in the center of the wall.
This makes sense. This woman came out of the hidden room, so there are no other blood stains except this corner.
And the "injured man" should also be in this hidden room.
Angel made the illusion look like he was going to "flex his muscles". He didn't know if anyone would notice him, but just in case, whatever Angel wanted to do, he had to let the illusion go.
A process. This is done to make the behavior of "Phantom" logical and avoid being discovered by others.
It is not difficult to enter this hidden room, just find the key points to expand the magic pattern.
As the expansion magic pattern was activated, the wall suddenly trembled, then a faint light flashed, and the door into the hidden room was opened.
Before he entered the room, Angel heard the familiar sound of sobbing.
Ever since he entered the inner world, he could hear the same cry almost every moment.
Angel made a vigilant expression and slowly opened the door.
If there is an undead inside, he must escape as quickly as possible. Although the undead may not be able to do anything to him, he has no way to deal with the undead.
But when the door was pushed open, Angel's eyes suddenly widened.
Undead? No.
There was nothing else in the room, only a huge bathtub, exuding steaming white gas. But the steam evaporating from the bathhouse was not water vapor, but blood steam! Because the bathtub was filled with sticky and hot blood.
.
If Angel turned on the purification force field at this time, he would undoubtedly be able to smell the fishy smell.
Where does the blood in the bath come from?
Tick tock, tick tock——
Drops of blood flowed from the naked bodies hanging above the room. On the top of the room, hooks that looked like sickles were hanging upside down. More than thirty naked women had sickles inserted into their chests, and blood was flowing from their chests.
fell from the wound in front of her.
Hot, fresh, and filled with strong resentment, blood dripped down into the bath.
Some of the women hanging on the sickles are dead, and some are still alive, but their hearts have been pierced, and they are not far from death. The quiet crying is the desperate moaning of those who are still alive.
.
Angel now understood why the corpses in the cemetery had a wound on their chest. It turned out to be this way.
Thinking of the endless undead in the entire forest, Angel simply couldn't imagine how many people Castle Black had killed over the years.
Angel looked a little pale, and facing the mess of this room, he didn't even dare to step in.
It's not that I'm afraid, it's just that I'm resisting deep inside.
There was no one in the bath, but there was a row of footprints on the edge of the bath, leading directly to the door. Apparently, the woman outside was in the middle of "bathing" and found someone coming in, so she hurriedly came out to ambush her.
The drainage pipes outside do not discharge water, but the blood used by people to bathe.
Angel endured the discomfort in his heart and stepped in.
There was no mechanism inside, but Angel would rather face the mechanism than face the devastation of this room. Especially, the women who were still alive looked at him with hateful eyes, like thorns in the sky.
Angel wanted to explain to these poor women, but how could he explain it? Even if he explained it, it would be of no use. Their hearts had been pierced and they were not far from death.
Even if he wanted to save people, relying on his newly learned healing skills, he was unable to save his life.
Angel walked to the bathtub and looked directly at the sharp arrow-like eyes. He stood simply for a while, and then said calmly:
"I'm not here to save you."
The first words Angel said made them stunned for a moment.
"I'm not here to kill you either. I want to know how you ended up in Castle Black?"
After a long while, a voice with sharpness and resentment said: "Black Castle, this is Black Castle? Hahaha, I can die and understand! Even if I become a ghost, I will not let Castle Black go, and I will not let this place go."
everyone!"
Angel looked over calmly, and there was a woman with long hair and shawl. Her eyes were extremely crazy, and she was surrounded by endless resentment. She was a mortal, but there was no doubt that once she died, she would immediately turn into a dead spirit.
Angel was still thinking, the long-haired woman seemed to be too angry, her eyes widened, and a stream of blood spurted out from the wound.
Seeing that she was about to die, Angel used a healing spell to forcefully hang her life.
Of all the people present, she was the only one who still retained consciousness and could speak clearly. If Angel wanted to know the information, he could only pry it from her mouth.
The woman gasped for breath and looked at Angel with resentment in her eyes: "Why did you save me?"
"I can't save you, your heart is broken, and I can't save you." Angel said calmly: "I hang on to your life simply because I want to know where you come from and why you are here?"
"Who are you? Are you not one of those temptresses?" The woman's face was pale, as if real resentment was slowly gathering.
"I'm not from Castle Black, I'm here to...save people." Angel looked at the woman.
"Hahaha, save people, hahaha." The woman laughed, and tears kept falling while laughing.
At the same time, the resentment in her body surged more and more with her excitement, and Angel could see the rolling black waves even with his naked eyes.
Unfortunately, when the woman reached her peak of laughter, the originally healed wound burst open again, her blood surged, and she was about to die.
Angel saved her again.
"Answer my question, how did you get here? Have you seen such a man half a day ago?" Angel said, simulating the phantom of the shadow.
The woman didn't answer, she just kept yelling and laughing.
Time and time again, her heart was broken, healed by Angel, healed and broken again. In a short period of time, she tasted the horror between life and death, so her resentment almost doubled.
Angel could see that the woman seemed to be using his hands to accumulate the resentment she had while alive to the highest level. Once the resentment reached its peak, the resentment generated after death would quickly push her past the early stage of undeath.
.
After hesitating for a moment, Angel decided to fulfill her. If this was her long-cherished wish before her death, then let her fulfill it.
The woman said a few words at the beginning to seduce Angel to continue healing her.
But later, she seemed to realize that Angel intended to help her accumulate resentment. She simply said nothing and just kept pumping up her blood, allowing herself to experience life and death again and again.
Her resentment reached a terrifying level with each push.
Angel also didn't expect that this ordinary mortal woman could bear such severe pain again and again. If she had not been caught by the people of Castle Black, she might have been a hero like Nausicaa.
It's a pity that she fell at the starting line before she could see the future.
Perhaps, the woman knew that her limit had been reached. The last time she looked at Angel, there was no trace of resentment in her eyes, and she looked as calm as a lady.
"I am the thirteenth daughter of King Guman. Because of the loss of the blood royal power, I was framed as a prisoner by the eldest princess. King Guman demoted me to a commoner, and the eldest princess made me a slave. After being displaced, I was sold here...
...Hahaha, I thought I would become a slave and serve men all my life, but I didn't expect this place to be a den of temptresses. They bathed in the blood of virgins. Then... you saw it." The woman said, her anger disappearing, "As for them
, the coward who only knows how to cry was probably sold in by slave traders."
King Guman? Angel was a little surprised. The Kingdom of Guman was not in a fairy tale world, and it was more than ten thousand miles away from here. Ordinary people would probably not be able to get here in a lifetime.
Therefore, the slave trader she spoke of definitely had a wizarding background.
According to this logic, all women were sent by slave traders. The "cold place" Huahua mentioned may not be in the fairy tale world. It would be even harder to find. There are countless cold places in the Southern Region!
"I have seen this man before." The woman vomited blood and pointed at the illusion of the shadow: "Just a few hours ago, the temptress had a fight with the man, and finally he came in and took a look at us.
Then she left. Then the temptress came back and took a bath again while cursing her."
After the woman finished speaking, the whites of her eyes began to roll up.
Angel lowered his head: "Thank you."
The woman laughed loudly and her life disappeared.
