Beauty and the Bodyguard

But Lin Yi finally had a direction, how could he give up so easily?

I'm worried that I can't find Hua Monogatari and Luo Caidi. It's a lot easier to have these weird pale white hands to lead the way!

Therefore, not only would Lin Yi not resist, he would also cooperate and be caught intentionally.

After being dragged along in the dark land for who knows how long, Lin Yi's body suddenly became empty and then fell hard to the ground.

This time, it was real hard ground and no more sinking.

His consciousness quietly unfolded. Although it was in the darkness, Lin Yi still clearly grasped the surrounding environment.

Obviously, this place...is actually a prison?

Lin Yi was thrown directly into a prison by those pale white hands!

Then, those little hands disappeared without a trace.

Lin Yi didn't move rashly, just checking the surroundings calmly.

The fence around the cell is made of who knows what kind of material, but it actually has the effect of restraining the attribute energy, making it impossible to exert the slightest strength.

Not only that, there is a seal outside the prison.

With the two-pronged approach, it is basically impossible for anyone to break the seal and escape from here.

It seems that these dark monsters are really not simple. They are much stronger than the chickens and dogs encountered in the abandoned land before.

At least, there isn't such a high-level prison in the Abandoned Lands.

Withdrawing his consciousness, Lin Yi focused on the cell again.

It's not surprising that besides Lin Yi, there are other human beings here.

However, these people in the prison are all in a dying state.

To Lin Yi's dismay, Hua Monogatari and Luo Caidi were not included.

I don't know whether to feel regretful or grateful.

After all, Lin Yi couldn't figure out why these people were so old. Could there be something weird in this cell that could accelerate human aging?

Therefore, if Lin Yi saw the old man and old lady's Hua Monogatari and Luo Caidi as soon as he came in, it would be called depression.

However, Lin Yi was deliberately caught here, naturally expecting to meet the two of them here.

But after finding this place, at least I have a direction, which is definitely countless times better than searching outside without any clue!

Anyway, I saw a few living people in this deserted place... Even if they looked like they were about to die, at least they still had some energy now!

Lin Yi walked towards those people, ready to ask about the situation here.

Unexpectedly, among the few people, an old man who was more energetic actually spoke first.

"Young man, you look very young. It's not easy to be here. It's a pity that such a talented person like you couldn't really grow up!"

The old man's body was skinny and even dry, and the arms exposed from his ragged clothes were a true reflection of skin and bones.

His eyes were also quite dim, and it seemed that it took a lot of effort to speak clearly.

After saying a word, he coughed weakly a few times.

You don’t need to ask to know that the oil is running out!

"Young man, what year is it outside now?"

After coughing a few times, the old man asked a question that confused Lin Yi.

which year? How is sub-island calculated? It seems that I have never noticed it...

Even Lin Yi didn't pay attention to it on Tianjie Island. He only knew about the secular world's chronology.

"Now...it should be 2020 AD..."

Lin Yi could only answer the answer he knew, and then it was the old man's turn to be confused.

2020 AD...what year is it?

Could it be that there has been a change of dynasty outside and earth-shaking changes have taken place?

If it had been before, the old man would probably have broken the casserole and asked to the end, and he would definitely understand this issue.

But now, he is really low on energy and has no energy to talk to Lin Yi about these meaningless things.

"Young man, how did you get here? What's going on outside? Have humans already invaded the node?"

When the old man thought about it, Lin Yi, a young boy, might have followed the Wu League army into the node, and then was caught by mistake. There might be more people caught later.

"Old man, are you also from the Naduo Military Alliance branch? Are you a general who participated in this suppression node, or a warrior who volunteered to come?"

Lin Yi did not answer directly, but asked a question first.

However, I felt that it didn't look like it. After all, the old man and the others seemed to have been here for a long time.

If they were just prisoners in this operation, they shouldn't be in such a miserable situation.

Unless, as previously speculated, there is something wrong with this prison, maybe the flow of time is hundreds or thousands of times faster than the outside world!

Sure enough, the old man was startled for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile and said: "We can be regarded as people from the Naduo Martial Alliance branch, but we are not people who came here during your operation!"

"In this dark place, time is hard to count. A rough estimate is that maybe we have been here for more than a hundred years...A hundred years ago, young man, your parents were not even born yet, right?"

More than a hundred years?

Lin Yi was shocked.

Although the old man and several others looked like they had been imprisoned for a long time, it was still unimaginable that these people had been on this road for more than a hundred years!

Ignoring Lin Yi's shocked expression, the old man continued to tell: "I have been trapped for so many years and can only survive. It is actually not interesting. Look here!"

Lin Yi followed the old man's skinny fingers and looked over. There was a pile of dead bones in the corner of the cell.

Needless to say, Lin Yi probably knew what those were.

"Young man, you should be able to tell, right? These are my former companions. Most of them are warriors in the earth creation stage. A few have broken through to the sea splitting stage. After suffering for a long time, they all can't hold on. In the end, it can only turn into withered bones in the grave!"

"There is no food in this place, and there is no attribute energy to cultivate. If you want to survive, you can only rely on your own reserves and accumulation! I used to be the Great Perfection of the Sea Split, and I am considered a relatively powerful master, so I can persist for a longer time. Now, it has reached its limit!"

"The situation of these old guys around me is even worse! They also want to talk to you, but their energy no longer allows them! Their breathing is consuming their life now... so I can only talk to you alone! "

Although the old man spoke feebly, he spoke slowly and clearly.

Lin Yi felt pity, and quickly took out a pile of food and water, as well as the appropriate elixirs, and sent them to the old man: "Senior, don't talk about it for now. I have elixirs, food and water here. You can eat a little first. That's fine. Get some energy back!"

The eyes of those people, including the old man, all lit up.

Even in the dark, it's extremely clear!

Isolated from the world for so many years, fresh food, water and precious elixirs are all huge temptations for them!
