Chapter 17 The Daybreak
After the servant saw such a scene in the prison, the suspicion that he had just raised gradually disappeared, and he turned his head and said respectfully: "King, the dishes are ready. Do you want to pass the meal now?"
Shi Lei snorted and threw it away. He dropped the iron whip in his hand, "Go back to the bedroom and pass the meal. It's too bad to watch these people eat." After the
words were finished, Shi Lei turned around and strode out of the prison.
When the servant saw this, he quickly followed.
After the cell was quiet again, Wang Lin, who was lying on the ground, breathed a sigh of relief.
The "half-dead" Ling Qiqi suddenly opened his eyes and slowly got up and sat up.
Wang Xueer, who was "on the verge of death" by her side, also came back to life. After confirming that there was no threat, Wang Xue'er lowered her head and tugged at the blood-stained clothes, and said helplessly, "The smell of these bug blood still smells weird."
That's right, the blood on the three of them were all dead bug corpses in the cell. squeezed out.
Wang Lin also lowered his head and sniffed the smell of his clothes, and felt a soaring odor instantly rise up. He turned around and took a breath of fresh air.
"Qiqi, what should we do now?" Wang Xue'er had already adjusted her mood and looked at Ling Qiqi.
"It's still early, let's go out when there are fewer people during the day." Ling Qiqi calmly said through the bars of the iron window looking at the night outside.
There are many people at night, and the three of them can easily be found when they go out.
Wang Lin and Wang Xue'er nodded in response. The three of them began to sleep peacefully in the cell, trying to adjust for the time difference caused by the day and night in the town.
The lively and long night passed quickly, and the beautiful moonlight gradually disappeared, followed by the scorching hot sun. After the day comes, the temperature begins to rise significantly and the air is very dry.
In the cell, the soldier guarding the prison also fell asleep on the table because of sleepiness.
When no one was paying attention, Ling Qiqi suddenly turned over and took out a key, got up and walked to the prison door.
Her actions immediately caught the attention of Wang Lin and Wang Xue'er, and both of them looked at the key in her hand strangely, completely at a loss.
Ling Qiqi opened the iron lock with the key and looked back at them, "I was in a hurry just now, so I didn't have time to tell you."
"My ability can move objects in the air. When the soldier locked the door before and left, I quietly put the He's got the key." After speaking, Ling Qiqi tore off the chain and pushed open the prison door.
When Wang Xueer heard this, she was stunned for a moment, thinking that she had been concealing her abilities all the time, she lowered her eyes and pursed her lips, and made a decision to say it.
She looked a little apologetic, "I concealed my abilities before, mainly because everyone just didn't know each other very well. But now in this situation, it is more convenient to know each other's abilities clearly, so I won't hide it. Wang Xueer raised her palm, and a golden light slowly rose from
her palm, explaining: "My ability is called random amplification, which is a kind of auxiliary ability. It has no attack power, but it can be used for other people's abilities. Add some special boosts."
Wang Lin summoned his own green leaf ancient vine in coordination. Flexible and sturdy vines spread out from his palm.
He helped explain: "When Cher's ability is used on me, my Aoba vine will produce a toxin similar to anesthesia. This toxin will not kill you immediately, but after a long-term overdose, it will slowly become anesthetized. The enemy's body will finally make the opponent fall into a coma."
Ling Qiqi looked at Wang Xue'er unexpectedly.
She always thought that Wang Lin was the main force among the two brothers and sisters of the Wang family, but she didn't expect that the power that Wang Xueer had been hiding all along would have such a miraculous effect.
Wang Xueer seriously activated her powers and wanted to give Ling Qiqi a try.
A pale golden light landed on Ling Qiqi, and the powerful force spread into Ling Qiqi's body, feeling warm.
However, Ling Qiqi hadn't enjoyed it for a long time, when the unknown power hidden in her body suddenly sensed the invasion of a foreign object, and an astonishing hostility erupted suddenly, attacking Wang Xueer's boosting power fiercely.
The two energies collided violently in the body, and Wang Xueer's supernatural power was instantly expelled from Ling Qiqi's body.
"Hi..."
Wang Xue'er felt a sharp pain in her head, and she almost didn't stand still.
Wang Lin quickly supported Wang Xue'er, her brows became nervous, "What's wrong?"
Wang Xue'er looked at Ling Qiqi with lingering fears and shook her head, "I don't know. My powers just entered Qiqi's body, and they were suddenly attacked. The force has been driven out."
Ling Qiqi opened her eyes, and subconsciously looked down at the palm of her hand, "My supernatural power seems to reject other forces."
Because Wang Xue'er was not hostile to Ling Qiqi, she was resisted. The attack was not serious. It didn't take long for the dizziness in Wang Xue'er's head to slowly disappear.
She thought for a while, then subconsciously speculated: "Could it be because Qiqi's ability level is relatively high, that there is a situation of voluntarily rejecting other abilities?"
Although when the ability was awakened in the dungeon, the level did not appear. classification situation. But everyone also knows in their hearts that it is impossible for all abilities to be equally powerful, and there will definitely be a grade.
In the case of Ling Qiqi, Wang Xue'er could only guess.
Ling Qiqi lowered her head and pondered, "Maybe." It
took a while because of trying out supernatural powers. Ling Qiqi and the others did not continue to delay in the cell, and while the soldiers in charge of the prison were still sleeping, they quickly slipped out of the prison.
At this time, the sky is bright outside, and the scorching sun that covers half of the sky is constantly releasing high temperature.
After Ling Qiqi and the others came out of the prison, they each started to investigate the situation near their location.
A quarter of an hour later, the three of them gathered under the agreed tree.
There is a relatively hidden hiding place behind the shade of the tree. Passing from the outside, it is generally impossible to see the specific situation inside without careful observation.
Ling Qiqi squatted down and carefully outlined what she had just discovered: "We should be inside the palace now. There are two palace gates on the side I just investigated, and soldiers are guarding them. If you don't use force, think about it. Going in and out of the palace gate might be a bit of a struggle."
Fortunately, Shi Lei had the foresight to put the three of them in the palace's prison ahead of time, which made it easier for them to do things.
On the other side, Wang Xue'er lowered her body and said softly, "The gates of the two palaces we searched are also heavily guarded. But we just met a few maids passing by, and they happened to talk about the princess in the cold palace. It is said that the princess has been in good spirits in recent days. It's abnormal, it's been making a fuss or something."
Ling Qiqi lowered her eyes and pursed her lips.
From what she knew about Lin Meng, Lin Meng was not the kind of person who would make a fool of himself.
She made these noises suddenly, presumably because she wanted to reasonably lead Shi Lei over by making trouble, so as to facilitate the exchange of information.
Ling Qiqi raised her eyes and swept to the cold palace in the opposite distance, "Then let's go to the cold palace first."
Wang Xueer and Wang Lin also looked over with a slightly solemn expression.
A few minutes later, when the servants who hurried out of the cold palace passed through the grass, they were quickly rolled up by a thick vine. Before they could struggle, they were stunned by the anesthetic toxin on the vine.
Ling Qiqi took off two sets of maid's palace costumes and gave one set to Wang Xue'er.
Wang Lin also chose a set of servants' palace clothes to wear outside. After the three of them were all dressed up, they gagged the unconscious servants, tied them to a hidden corner, and then left the grass and set out in the direction of Leng Palace.
The cold palace is deserted, and the daily care is also very lax. Few people would deliberately stare at a group of servants.
Ling Qiqi and the others lowered their heads and pretended to be ordinary servants the whole time, and slipped in easily.
After entering the cold palace, I saw a lot of servants surrounded the entrance of the main hall where the princess was imprisoned. It should be because the princess was making trouble again.
As a servant, Wang Lin could only stay outside the hall on standby.
Half a minute later, Ling Qiqi and Wang Xueer quickly entered the gate of the palace.
"You ask the king to roll over for me! Otherwise, I'll be hanged in this palace!" As
soon as Ling Qiqi entered the main hall of the cold palace, he heard a familiar shout, it was Lin Meng's voice.
The two maids in the hall were kneeling on the floor timidly, trying to persuade the princess, but the stalemate for so long was to no avail.
Ling Qiqi stepped forward and bowed his head in a salute, "His Royal Highness, the king has something for me to pass on to you." A slow voice slowly spread in the hall.
This sound immediately stopped Lin Meng, who was stepping on the bench. She and Ling Qiqi have lived in the same dormitory for three years, so she is naturally familiar with Ling Qiqi's voice.
Lin dreamed of something, turned around quickly, and saw Ling Qiqi wearing a palace dress at the entrance of the palace, his eyes paused slightly.
But she quickly realized that there were other outsiders present in the hall.
Lin Meng quickly calmed down and got off the bench with a cold face. The servant next to her who was serving her quickly stepped forward to support her.
Lin Meng was dressed in brocade clothes, and the phoenix embroidered skirt drawn with gold thread was dragging long on the floor. There was a certain majesty in her eyes that could not be ignored.
"The maid sent by the king to pass the message stayed, and the rest went out."
Seeing that the princess was no longer making trouble, the maids didn't dare to continue provoking her, so they quickly turned around and retired. For a while, only Ling Qiqi and Wang Xue'er were left in the palace.
Ling Qiqi made sure that the door in the hall was closed tightly and no one was peeping outside, then turned to look at Lin Meng.
Lin Meng, who was still very strict just now, rushed to Ling Qiqi almost instantly and hugged her excitedly, with a long cry in her voice.
"Qiqi, you finally came to save me..."
Ling Qiqi smiled helplessly and patted her on the back, "Well."
Of course Lin Meng also knew the seriousness of the matter. After a short sniff, she regained her composure, and looked at Wang Xue'er subconsciously with a bit of confusion in her eyes.
Ling Qiqi introduced the two of them to each other.
"This is Lin Meng, my roommate for three years in college, who was randomly sent by the dungeon before we separated."
"This is Wang Xue'er, she entered the dungeon with me, and is now a companion of our team."
Lin After Meng and Wang Xueer got to know each other, they shook hands amicably and politely.
After the simple greeting was over, Ling Qiqi brought back the topic again, "Before we came, we met with Fatty and learned some information. What's the situation with you now?"
Lin Meng's expression immediately became extremely solemn, and he began to enter the topic .
"Then I'll make a long story short. In fact... a dungeon is being built secretly under this town. Since the sun has grown, the temperature has become higher and higher, and if it continues for a period of time, the temperature at night will sooner or later rise to It is unbearable for the residents. At that time, the residents can only enter the underground life, and this is how the dungeon was established."
After the words fell, Wang Xueer was also shocked by the amount of information, "Some people have already started to build the dungeon. "
