"die……"

Koizumi Anko stood there with her eyes wide open, unable to believe her ears.

There was a groaning smile on Khasaj's Indian face, "I remember they were three people, an old man, a woman, and the woman's servant."

"The old man was the first to die. He failed to pass the review of the council. The indigenous people of this land cannot provide us with much useful knowledge, but it is best to be used as slaves."

"The woman wanted to go to Enkai. In order to lure us away, her servant ran away towards the exit alone, but we caught him when he was about to escape to the ground. His hands and feet were chopped off and he was given the most severe punishment.

"

"As for that woman, although she entered Enkai, she never came out again..."

Khasaj's words reveal the fate of Koizumi Hongzi's mother, servants and old Gray Eagle 15 years ago.

This reminded Qin Zhibo of the corpse without arms and legs that Minase Yomu saw on the mound when he passed through the underground tunnel. It might be the servant of Koizumi Anko's mother.

And there is Koizumi Hongzi’s mother, she really got into Enkai.

"Okay, having said all that, you should also know that no one can get out alive after entering Kunyang, right?"

"Don't worry, as long as you follow us back with peace of mind and teach us the method of summoning the Unspeakable, we will not treat you badly."

The surrounding Kunyang people all returned to normal, pulled out the swords from their waists, and approached Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi.

But at this moment, countless light green slender shadows emerged from the rock walls of the canyon and surrounded the Kunyang people's sentries.

Qin Zhibo took a closer look and realized that these slender shadows turned out to be snake-men.

A group of snake-men's shadows surrounded these Kunyang people. Hasaj and his sentry team were immediately in chaos, waving their swords at the surroundings indiscriminately.

But these swords seemed unable to cause any damage to the snake-man shadow, and all attacks passed through the green shadow.

Before Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi understood what was happening, the shadow of a snake man stood in front of them.

"We are the snake people cursed by Yin Ge. You already know our history in the temple, right?"

Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi recalled what they saw in the Nameless City and nodded in unison.

The snake-man shadow continued: "Because we turned our backs on Yin Ge, we suffered a vicious and eternal curse."

"Although our bodies have degraded and died, our souls are forever imprisoned and cannot leave this desolate place."

"So we would like to invite you to enter Enkai, tell our tragic experience to the toad god Tsathogua, and ask her to lend a hand to save her miserable and devout believers."

The snake man's flat facial features, as if they were on the fleshy wings of a cobra's neck, did not open his mouth, but Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi already understood what he was saying.

"Get in quickly! We can't hold them off for long!"

"Come in quickly! Enkai's entrance is over there!"

The snake man raised his hand and pointed to the darkness deep in the canyon, where the metal coin was pointing.

Qin Zhibo glanced at the snake-man Shadow and the Kunyang people who were still entangled with each other, and immediately understood that the snake-man had no fighting power now, and was just constantly scaring and disturbing the Kunyang people's sight.

"let's go!"

Qin Zhibo made up his mind and dragged away Koizumi Hongzi, who still wanted to settle accounts with the Kunyang people.

The two of them got into the darkness and disappeared from the sight of the snake people and the Kunyang people.

…

After running for a while, Koizumi Hongzi broke away from Qin Zhibo and asked: "Why did you let them go?"

"That's your best chance to kill them!"

After what Hasaj just said, Koizumi Hongzi’s hatred for the Kunyang people has reached the sky.

She wanted to kill the Kunyang people to avenge her mother and the unknown servants of the Red Magic clan.

But Qin Zhibo was more rational than her at this time and knew that there was no point in doing so.

"Even if we kill them now, it will only attract more Kunyang people."

"But if they choose to escape at this time, they will think that we have no other means and relax their vigilance."

In his contact with Hasaj, Qin Zhibo could feel his arrogance as a Kunyang native and his disdain for everything about people on the ground.

And this arrogance will make him disdain to ask for help and insist on using their sentinel power to eliminate the threat from outsiders.

In other words, when he came out of Enkai, there was still only one sentry guarding outside the canyon.

As long as they can deal with Hasaj and his sentries and find the entrance to the Tombs of Xin in Snake City, they can return safely.

"no!"

"I want to go back to find them! I want to avenge my mother!"

Saying that, Koizumi Hongzi turned around and went back regardless.

Snapped!

At this time, a crisp slap echoed in the silent space, and Koizumi Hongzi's face immediately turned red.

This is a palm from Qin Zhibo, used to help her regain her sanity.

"So what if you fight them desperately right now? Will your mother be happy because of this?"

"Don't forget, what is the purpose of your trip?"

"It is to fulfill the long-cherished wish of the Red Magic family and obtain the legendary ultimate magic!"

Koizumi Hongzi looked up at Qin Zhibo, with traces of red appearing on the whites of her eyes.

But she finally controlled her tear ducts and did not shed a single tear.

The witch's rule is that as long as you cry, you will lose your magic power, no matter who you are crying for.

"Have you calmed down?"

Qin Zhibo turned around and saw the darkness ahead, "Then let's get on the road quickly, we still have a long way to go..."

…

The two continued walking forward and finally reached the foot of the cliff at the top of the mountain.

There is no flat road ahead, only a cave that slopes downward, which seems to be another road leading underground.

Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi entered successively by the light of searchlights. The slope here was steeper than the previous section.

And underneath the thousand-meter-long slope is a dark underground hall.

There is no difference between day and night here. The glow from the rock dome illuminates the place just right, just like the moonlight from the outside world.

At the edge of the underground hall, there are still several unmarked passages, or forks, spreading out into the depths.

Just when Qin Zhibo was confused about where to go next, a figure walked over from an inconspicuous position.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time..."

The person coming is none other than Mr. clock.

Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi have experienced bumps along the way. Whether it is their mental outlook or their clothing, they can be described as dusty.

On the other hand, Mr. Clock is the same as what he saw on the ground. Except for the fact that his face is naturally expressionless, he is still full of energy.

Qin Zhibo asked: "Did you come down directly?"

Mr. Clock replied expressionlessly: "Yes, the seismic mining machine can move the target several miles away above or underground."

Qin Zhibo looked around and did not see the earthquake mining machine.

"You are underground now, can you still control the machine on the ground?"

Mr. Clock shook his head, "No."

"Then how do you go back?"

"How you came here is how I will go back."

"Going back from Kunyang?"

"Yes, go back from Kunyang."

Qin Zhibo was stunned for a moment, wondering if Mr. Clock knew that Kunyang was inhabited by those degenerate and xenophobic Kunyang people.

Or does Mr. Clock have any way to deal with the Kunyang people?

"alright……"

Mr. Clock turned to the passages at the edge of the underground hall and said, "It's time for us to move on. Enkai is waiting for us ahead."

Mr. Clock took Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi into a passage in the middle, but in Qin Zhibo's eyes, this passage was no different from other passages.

"Why did you choose this path?" Qin Zhibo asked.

Mr. Clock, who was walking in front, stopped and looked back, explaining in a stiff tone: "Because the other roads do not lead to Enkai, but to other places..."

"Here lies the path to Atrak Nak'a, the Spider God."

"Here lies the path to Abhoth, the source of the impure."

"There is a road leading to the Womi people's lair..."
