scare!

Even if Lin Chen was brave, he was still a little frightened at this moment.

He instinctively swung his long sword and slashed at the corpse, cutting out a few pieces of flesh. He quickly stepped back a few steps to increase the distance between him and the stone trough. Then he raised his vigilance to the extreme, feeling slightly nervous.

, waiting for the changes in the corpse in the stone trough.

Lin Chen waited patiently for a long time, but everything was as usual, and the abnormal scene he imagined did not appear.

Originally, Lin Chen thought that the corpse would climb out of the stone trough and attack him with its claws and claws.

Since he saw no danger, Lin Chen's mood gradually calmed down, but he still maintained a certain degree of vigilance.

Lin Chen carefully approached the stone trough and looked at the corpse in the stone trough. The corpse still stared at Lin Chen with its pale eyes open, and moved its eyes as Lin Chen moved.

This corpse is alive!

Lin Chen saw the corpse opening and closing its mouth, as if it wanted to say something, but all it made was an incomprehensible "hissing" sound.

He threw out an insight spell and only got the simple information that "this is a strange living dead corpse, possibly a sacrifice for some evil ritual." He looked at his feet and found a large stone trough extending outwards from the center.

On the ground, there are special lines drawn with blood, forming a strange magic array, but it has not been completely activated.

When this magic circle is fully activated, what terrible things will happen? Will the evil knight be summoned, or will the devil be resurrected?

Don’t worry about that much for now.

Lin Chen abandoned the thoughts that had nothing to do with the mission. Now the secondary goal of the mission had failed. It was impossible to rescue the seven missing children. There was only one main goal that could be accomplished - finding the whereabouts of Tom.

He left the stone trough and turned his attention back to the surrounding rock walls and the children chained up. He didn't know what kind of horror these children had experienced in these days.

Sluggish, even his arrival did not produce much reaction.

After Lin Chen counted carefully, he found that there were only five children here, and the whereabouts of two children were missing.

He frowned, and after searching carefully, he discovered the whereabouts of the other "child".

The man's human form was no longer distinguishable. His skin had been stripped off, and his bones seemed to have been shattered. His whole body was covered with blood and flesh, and he lay limply on the ground.

A bit disgusting.

Lin Chen ignored this mass of "flesh and blood" and threw his Insight Technique at the children one by one. He found Elaine, the granddaughter of the mayor's family, and a fat boy from a certain family, but he couldn't find Tom, the main target of the mission.

people.

No way?

Lin Chen looked at the "flesh and blood" again, endured the discomfort, and also threw out the Insight Technique, but he couldn't get any useful information.

If he could not confirm that this mass of "flesh and blood" was Tom, it meant that he had failed to find Tom's whereabouts, and the mission would not be completed.

At this moment, a faint voice came from beside him.

"He...is Somi."

Lin Chen recalled the name "Suomi". The information he had previously obtained through Captain Carlo showed that among the missing children there was a boy named Suomi. He was a brave orphan. His biggest wish was to grow up.

Can be a hero.

Lin Chen turned around and saw Elaine, a little girl with dirty hair and clothes, stained with blood, dust and broken leaves, and her face was very pale.

Suddenly he remembered that the faint sobbing he heard when he first entered this space seemed to be from this little girl.

She still retains her sanity.

"Are you okay?" Lin Chen asked.

"I'm scared. I don't want to be like that...are you here to save me?" the little girl added weakly: "You...are different from the devil."

Lin Chen smiled and said: "Yes, I can rescue you right away."

"Keng!"

Although Lin Chen didn't have the key, he slashed his long sword and quickly cut off the iron chains restricting the little girl's movement. Although there were still iron rings on the little girl's wrists and ankles, he could already take the little girl away.

Here we are, there will always be a solution to the rest when we go back.

Later, Lin Chen pulled out the tube that was originally inserted into the little girl's arm, rummaged through his backpack, and found a bottle of healing potion that had exploded at an unknown time. He poured it on the wound on the little girl's arm, and soon it was healed.

Bleeding again.

Elaine had just regained her mobility. When she stepped on the ground, she seemed to feel dizzy, and she leaned forward and was about to fall to the ground.

With quick hands and eyes, Lin Chen hugged the little girl's body. Well, it stinked a little.

"Thanks."

"Do you know the whereabouts of Tom?" Lin Chen asked the little girl after she got used to her body a little.

"Tom..."

Hearing Tom's name, Elaine's voice trembled, and a look of fear appeared on her face.

Lin Chen felt uneasy. He followed the little girl's hand and twitched his fingers, and happened to see the stone trough in the middle.

He soon realized that Tom was still alive, but had turned into the "living dead corpse".

Lin Chen felt a little guilty in his heart. If he had carried out the task as soon as possible, these children might still be intact.

However, now is not the time to regret.

After he confirmed the identity of the "living dead" and learned the whereabouts of Tom, the mission prompts changed.

The mission prompts him to return to Redwood Town now, tell Ms. Polly the sad news, and obtain the basic reward of the mission, but it may cause unpredictable consequences. He can also choose not to inform Ms. Polly and completely give up the mission reward.

.

The content of the mission has also been updated, telling him to leave here as soon as possible, saying that everything here is beyond his ability to handle, and it is best to inform Captain Carlo and others about everything he saw.

Lin Chen didn't have any intention of staying here for a long time. He felt very uncomfortable here and planned to rescue several other children before leaving here.

As a result, as long as he touched the children, they would tremble in fear and scream wildly. But when he took his hands away from the children, they quickly became quiet again, their eyes empty.

"The devil... gave us 'holy water' to drink, and we started to have nightmares."

The little girl hugged Lin Chen's arm tightly and said with a trembling body: "Only me...only I can wake up from this nightmare."

"Don't worry, I will take you out of here right away."

Lin Chen touched the little girl's head and calmed her down. Then he no longer cared about other people and had nothing to do with him, so he took the little girl out of this evil cave alone.

Although he still has a primary town-return scroll on him, which can quickly return to Redwood Town, the town-return scroll can only be effective on him alone. It is impossible for him to leave the little girl here alone, so he has to carefully avoid monsters, or just

Deal with some lone monsters to prevent the little girl from being harmed.

However, whether it was the little girl's good luck or the hidden settings of the mission, the monster basically ignored the little girl next to him, which also saved him a lot of energy.

But even so, it still took him half an hour to bring Elaine back to Redwood Town. (To be continued)
