After waking up

Although the mine is deep and dark, Mulan and others are not ordinary people. Even without lights, they can still ensure a certain degree of visibility, not to mention taking off the kerosene lamp from the carriage and carrying it, so when Mulan and others The mine tunnel is relatively clear to the eye.

As the mine tunnel continues to wind down, the underground space becomes wider in many places. The underground space is larger than imagined. These larger spaces are connected to each other by relatively narrow mine tunnels. Eighty percent of it was originally a mineral reserve area.

A few minutes after several people entered the mine, various branch mine tunnels began to appear. They were only taking a road in the center. There must be connections between these mine tunnels in various places underground. These underground three-dimensional conditions, just looking at them, The old floor plan from before is not visible.

Mulan paid attention to some occasionally visible wooden pillars. Some of the higher positions were not made of pure whole wood, but had some traces of splicing. They were probably giant wooden pillars formed by a similar mortise and tenon structure.

Everyone, including Mulan, frowned as they went deeper underground. It was true that the air here was turbid and the smell was getting worse and worse.

The mine has long since ceased, and the steam ventilation system has been paralyzed for decades. The air circulation underground relies entirely on natural exchange. Even if the mine tunnels are very spacious, at this depth, there are dirty werewolves everywhere. Down, the taste is simply disgusting.

"Roar" "Ouch."

"Woo"

The werewolf's screams became dense and restless. After passing through another connecting mine tunnel, the eyes suddenly opened up a lot, and a huge space of more than several hundred square meters appeared, and the height above the head was also very exaggerated, a full ten meters. A few meters high.

This is not a space dug out by mining in the past, but a rock cavity hundreds of meters underground. The former mining area used this as an underground transfer center, which can be used as a temporary rest area for miners and a material reserve. , even now, many buildings remain in this place.

However, these historical traces are just environmental records that are glanced at at a glance. The most conspicuous thing here now is the werewolf.

Pairs of green eyes were all opened, some were lying down, and some were standing. A rough estimate showed that there were hundreds of werewolves in this stone hall alone.

"Roar--"

In the most intact wooden house in the middle, a tall werewolf with silver-gray hair slowly walked out. Even in the dim light, Mulan could see that there was a long scar on its cheek that even the hair could not hide.

When he saw this werewolf, Mulan's pupils were slightly dilated because he recognized this werewolf. This werewolf was a rare being with a name among the infected, and it was also listed on the gray list of the temple. No. 239, Silvermane Dobrich Crazy Biter.

The reality is much different from what Mulan expected.

This werewolf was not the biggest here, but it was definitely the most conspicuous and the most oppressive. As soon as it came out, all the restless werewolves outside became quiet.

Then Silver Mane walked slowly, Mulan's pupils shrank slightly, and the strong smell of the werewolf became more and more obvious. He walked directly in front of Baron Charles. The latter was stiff, but managed to remain calm, regardless of the air. Dirty or not, he was still able to speak after taking a deep breath.

"Sandro can't come. A powerful guy appeared on the train before. Seeing that he was invincible, Sandro left early before the train arrived at the station to prevent him from meeting him head-on. I think you should also know this. One o'clock, he left me a letter in the coffin in advance and asked me to pass it on to you."

"Roar"

The silver-maned werewolf roared in a low voice. It was obvious that he could understand Baron Charles' words and could communicate, but the wolf's mouth could not speak human words.

But Mulan knew very well that the Temple's description of Silver Mane on the Gray List contained two sentences. He described it as cruel, easy to kill, bloodthirsty and powerful. He could never be as "docile" as he appeared now.

Under the strong pressure, Baron Charles actually withstood it. Although his heartbeat was exaggeratedly fast, he maintained a decent demeanor. He knew that in his current situation, one wrong step would lead to death, and one wrong step back would be fatal. He must hold on tight. Only with the opportunity of living in Mullan Jonest can there be a glimmer of hope, and this kind of hope is not just a simple promise from Jonest before.

A promise made between nobles, and nobles who have only known each other for a day, may not be sincere no matter how opportunistic they are. Ciel understands that he must show his worth and achievements and must not pull his hips at such a time.

Charles inserted his left hand into his trouser pocket and gave his thigh a hard squeeze. The strong pain stimulated his spirit, causing him to raise his head slightly, and instead showed a slightly arrogant feeling.

"I think with your wisdom, it should be easy to figure out that such a person appeared on that train and started fighting with us. It is likely that the upper management of Dilga noticed something. Sandro asks you to hurry up and get rid of us." Recall all the werewolves outside, of course, those who have been exposed should not come back, and take the initiative to find a place to die, so that Dilga officials can see it!"

"Ho! Roar! Roar!"

Ciel didn't know what the silver-maned werewolf was yelling at, but he could guess from the volume that the other party was somewhat dissatisfied.

"This is not my intention, it is Sandro's decision. Do you want to disobey it?"

"Roar"

Under the light of the kerosene lamp, when the silver-maned werewolf heard the words "Sandro's order", he showed a very humane expression of contempt. It was obvious that Sandro was not in his eyes at all.

Mullan, Handel, Farrow Lynch and Charles all noticed this keenly, especially as a senior nobleman who is good at communication. Even if he has always been in a small place, Charles is also very good at observing words and emotions. When he saw this, he immediately realized No, I quickly supplemented myself in a hurry.

"Maybe you think Sandro can't order you, but what about the adult behind me? Sandro represents him. If something goes wrong in the plan, let alone our punishment, the Dilga Empire is not a vegetarian. , do you think we can fight them? Even if you are strong, but you are only one person, can these werewolves be able to stand up to you then? "

Silvermane came closer to Ciel, staring at him with a pair of green eyes, and a beast's roar came from the corner of his mouth.

After a long time, the silver-maned wolf raised his head, then looked to one side at Farrow Lynch, walked to him and sniffed the bag he was carrying.

At this point, Charles breathed a sigh of relief and was able to follow the original plan.

"This bag is full of explosives."

The silver-maned werewolf suddenly turned to look at Ciel.

Yes, it’s that simple and direct, and it explains clearly what is being brought.

"Actually, I think it was Sandro, the idiot, who exposed himself on the train and implicated us instead. Considering that this might lead to an investigation by the Dilga Empire, recalling the werewolves is not enough. The explosives I brought are Just in case, if nothing can be done, let these werewolves bring explosives to blow themselves up!"

"Roar!"

"This is a very safe and cost-effective method. Don't you still regard these werewolves as relatives, friends and brothers?"

Ciel was obviously getting more and more into the state. At this moment, he actually dared to argue with Silver Mane, and his tone and attitude were relatively strong, which attracted Farrow Lynch and Handel to look at him frequently, and even Mulan was secretly stunned.

Silver Mane's breath softened a little, and he turned his head and glanced around. Indeed, these guys were expendable, and there was nothing to feel sorry for.

"By the way, each explosive comes with a timer starter and an instant blaster. The former can be rotated to set the time, and the latter can explode with just one bite. Find a safe place to put this bag. Don't let these werewolves mess around. Otherwise, the damage will be great if it explodes in advance. You decide where to put it."

Silver Mane turned his head and took a look, stretched out his wolf claws and pointed at a house next to his wooden house. Ciel then winked at Farrow Lynch who was on the side.

"Go and put it away."

"Yes, Lord Baron!"

Farrow Lynch had an inexplicable look on his gloomy face. He lowered his head slightly and responded. Then he walked quickly to the wooden house carrying the sack, put down the bag and left without any hesitation.

"Hurry up. I saw a lot of werewolves in the mountains when I came here. Tell them to stop running around and don't go out for at least a week. Starting tomorrow, I will send people to bring twenty pigs and five cows here every day. , be careful not to hurt my people, useful and trustworthy servants are hard to find!"

"Roar"

Ciel used this tone of discussion to make plans with Silver Mane, and it was obvious that the other party's attitude was very different from the beginning.

After a few urgings from Charles, Silver Mane rushed out in an instant, and Mulan and others quickly followed, but the werewolf was too fast and had disappeared. When they ran to the exit of the mine, Silver Mane was already there. There they looked up at the moon and howled wildly.

"Ouch————"

This wolf howl was very long, loud and spread extremely far. The sound echoed in the surrounding mountains and could even reach the town of Shire.

After the wolf howled, Silvermane looked at Ciel at the mine entrance, who thought for a moment and said something quickly.

"I'm here to watch the werewolves come back. This is responsible for your life and my own life. By the way, in addition to those animals just now, I will find two people for you, a man and a woman. It's up to you to do with them how you want."

The silver-maned wolf's snout opened slightly, revealing a row of sharp fangs. This was not a threat, but it made Ciel feel better.

After about a few minutes, several werewolves rushed back, and a few minutes later the second group came, one after another in twos and threes. Six groups of werewolves came back within half an hour, and no more werewolves came back after that.

"Ouch——"

Silvermane howled again, growled at Ciel again, and then slowly walked into the mine tunnel, Ciel also warned him.

"Keep them restrained, at least for a week."

"Roar"

The werewolf's response came from the mine tunnel, and after a long time, everything fell silent.

Mulan and the others stood outside looking at the mine tunnel. After a while, Mulan looked at Charles, looked at him seriously, and praised him sincerely.

"Lord Baron, you are really impressive!"

"Lord Jones, how long does it take?"

Mulan took out his pocket watch and looked at it.

"I reserved some extra time before, and there are still two hours left, but it seems there won't be any problems."

Yes, the explosives and timers are real, but a few timers have been activated, including the ones stuck at the entrance to the mine tunnel and extending to the back.

Two hours later, Mulan and others, who had retreated to another distant mountain, felt obvious earth shaking, and then violent explosions came from the area where the mine tunnel was located.

"Boom——" "Boom——" "Boom——"

Mulan looked over there with his cane and said with a smile.

“Art is an explosion!”
