00268 Crazy Wizard and the Broken Ones ——————————————– —————————–=
‘You play according to your tendency.’
When I think back to Marvolo’s information that I looked through with my third eye, it was a passage that made some sense. I composed myself and opened the wooden door in one go. And the moment I took a step forward, a strange fever rushed through my whole body. The wind instantly enveloped my body and intensely stimulated my sense of smell.
“to… ? My smell… . Strange smell… .”
“Wow.”
Ansol and Yujeong Lee stepped behind me, holding their noses, perhaps because they were more sensitive to it because they were women. The other clan members didn’t make any noise, but they must have all been offended. The smell was so hot and awful that I felt that way.
“Hanbyeol. “You can cancel Light.”
If you estimate the time it took to come down the stairs, the basement is quite deep. Since there were no windows to be seen, it was normal for not a single ounce of light to come in. However, the ceiling was densely studded with light stones, and torches were hung intermittently on the walls, brightly illuminating the view.
Eventually, the sphere of light slowly disappeared. We walked along the bumpy bricks reflecting the scarlet light. At first, I walked along the passage extending straight ahead, but soon the passage split on both sides, and I stopped for a moment at a place where the front was blocked by a large wall.
‘Right or left.’
Unfortunately, not much is known about the castle’s basement. Because the structure was not mentioned in detail in the records in the first place. While thinking about where to go, I looked back at my clan members and said.
“From now on, all clan members will use magic detection.”
“… … .”
“Please widen the distance between each other little by little. You can do overall circular detection, or you can increase the density and do direction detection for each person. “If there is anything that bothers you, please report it to me right away.”
The message was not simply to find the user, but to prepare for what might be underground. Following my instructions, the clan members immediately began detecting magic power. Immediately, I felt the flow of various magical energies spreading across the floor. Nodding my head, I turned to the left.
“Go Yeon-ju. “You said earlier that you felt a reaction before coming in, right?”
“yes. I can still feel it even now. Because the shadows are telling us.”
I gave her a distant look at her cool answer. But soon it occurred to me that it might be possible. The fact that Go Yeon-ju didn’t say anything was probably proof that the direction I was going was not wrong. Or are you saying that it doesn’t matter which direction you go?
It took about 5 minutes to pass through the passage. The basement of the castle was quiet. The only sounds were our footsteps walking down the aisle. In the meantime, just when I was about to feel that the width of the passage was getting narrower, I heard a faint unfamiliar sound in my ears.
Click… . Click… .
“Su-hyun.”
“yes. I heard.”
“If you go straight ahead, you will come to a part where the passage turns to the right. From then on, the passage becomes very narrow. Enough for two people to barely pass by? “That is the epicenter of the sound.”
“Let’s change the formation to two lines. Then, the clan member on the left takes two steps forward. From now on, we will go into that state.”
Ko Yeon-ju naturally moved to the back. He soon checked on the clan members who had taken their positions in the diagonal line, and started walking at a faster pace than before. True to her words, her passage was now narrowing to a point that was clearly visible to her eyes. And when I saw a completely blocked wall in front of me, I discovered another passage newly bent to the right. And as soon as we turned around, the sight before our eyes made us stop again.
‘I can roughly understand what kind of structure it has.’
The passage that followed was just as Go Yeon-ju said. The width of the place was narrow enough for two people to barely pass through, and on the right wall there were very large holes spaced out at a certain distance. And on the top and bottom of the hole were iron bars the size of a woman’s forearm. If you think of the wall in front of you as a huge square, there will probably be a similar hole on the other side.
“It’s not an underground maze…” . “It was a dungeon.”
As Kim Han-byeol said, it was safe to say that this place was a dungeon. As I led the clan members who were standing blankly into the passage, the foul smell I first felt became even stronger. I thought I had gotten used to it as I passed through the previous passage, but the closer I got to the hole, the more the stench returned.
Clang… . Clang… .
The sound of chains that I heard earlier echoes again. Eventually, I moved to the front of the hole and carefully looked inside the iron bars. Then, the first thing that caught my eye was that the inside of the hole was no different from a cave, about 5 pyeong in size. and.
“Three, oh my… .”
“too bad… . Black… .”
There was one female user hanging from the ceiling of the cavity. Both of her arms were wrapped in chains. However, what actually made the clan members frown was that her physical condition was very serious.
Aside from the fact that his entire body was stripped naked and he was hanging naked, there was no place left untouched. Not only did she have bruises all over her body, but she also had sharp whip marks engraved on her sensitive parts as a woman. That wasn’t all. From the bloody smell of the man’s chestnut flower filling the cavity to the hardened, pale solid concentrated on the woman’s lips, chest, and local area. Just by looking at the marks, one could guess what happened here.
“Ansol. Prepare a healing spell.”
“Well… . yes!”
I immediately took out the sun and moon sword and started cutting off the end of the iron bar. There was nothing like steel that could stop my power, so I was able to immediately create a space for people to enter.
“Hyung, well, by the way. How do I get that chain down… .”
And after entering the cavity, he swung his sword straight at the chain in the air.
ping! Suddenly! Clang!
Ahn Hyun looked around as if trying to find a device or a key, but immediately closed his mouth when he saw a woman with her chain suddenly broken. After receiving the female user falling into my arms, I laid her straight on her floor. I could barely hear her breathing, but I could see that her stomach was slightly moving in and out, so it seemed like she was still alive.
“───. ───. ───. Cure!”
A swarm of warm light seeped into the moaning woman lying on the floor. But it wasn’t something that could be done with just one treatment. I quickly sprayed the healing potion given by Baek Han-gyeol evenly all over my body, and the wounds began to heal, emitting white smoke.
“Yes… .”
It was after using the next three healing spells and two bottles of potion that the woman barely opened her eyes. She looked at us with her narrow eyes and then quickly lowered her body, her eyes wide.
“Are you awake?”
“Aaaaaaaaaah!”
“Hey, wait a minute.”
“Say, please save me! sorry! I was so wrong! “Please save me!”
“… … .”
The woman’s first words began with a scream and ended with a loud wail along with a beg for her life. While the kids looked at me helplessly, I grabbed her chin and straightened her up, making eye contact with her. The woman’s eyes were filled with extreme fear. She cried out, dropping her chin that had barely been erected again.
“Just calm down for a moment and look here.”
“Please save me, please save me. Please forgive me just this once.”
“The wizard is dead. The people here are the secondary rescue team sent to rescue you. So you can rest assured.”
“Forgiveness… . Save me… ?”
Since he said it with so much magical energy, it must have been heard clearly in your ears. The woman who had been bowing her head while clasping her hands together lifted her head slightly at my words. Then she looked all over us with her trembling gaze, and then she closed her eyes and fainted.
“… Su-hyun. This woman… .”
“Probably one of the captured users.”
“I know that. But now what… .”
“I am breathing. “I must have been so stressed out that I became so relaxed that I passed out.”
After calmly exhaling, I gestured to An Sol, Kim Han-byeol, and Baek Han-gyeol. The three of them approached the fallen woman and stared at me, wiggling their necks.
“It seems that the users’ condition is more serious than we thought. So, from now on, we will allocate our roles… . First, you three. I’ll organize you into a treatment group. When Ansol begins treatment, Kim Hanbyeol assists him. And Hangyeol is right next to me and takes out things like potions right away.”
“””yes.”””
“From now on, I will go around the prison and cut off the iron bars first. And Yujeong follows me. If we find a user, we take it outside so the kids can treat it right away.”
“huh. brother.”
“Go Yeon-ju, Ahn Hyeon. The two form a team. Go Yeonju, please check to see if there is a prison in a passage other than this one. And if there is someone whose condition is really serious… . “Ahn Hyeon.”
“Your brother.”
I paused for a moment and held out the sun and moon sword I was holding to Ahn Hyeon.
“I will lend you the Sun and Moon God Sword. This will be better than the window. You should be able to cut through the iron bars. And just in case, take some potions with you. If Go Yeon-ju tells you, bring him to Ansol right away. got it?”
“All right.”
“Move right now.”
Finally, An Hyun, who received the Sun and Moon God Sword, made eye contact with Go Yeon-ju and ran away. Eventually, as I saw Yu-jeong dragging the fallen woman outside, I also pulled out my sword. Then he opened his mouth to the three people standing with pale faces.
“Let’s get started right away.”
*
Because there was only one priest, the rescue operation was slow. So, each person divided their roles. The rescue operation was simple. When I cut the iron bars, Lee Yu-jeong immediately goes inside and takes the user out. Then, the waiting treatment group begins treatment immediately. Sometimes I went in, but in those cases, I was either hanging high like the first woman or my entire body was restrained.
Occasionally, there were traces of someone being imprisoned, but there were also empty prisons. Anyway, since the treatment of users comes first, I cut the iron bars and made treatment easier.
In the end, my judgment was correct. At least one and at most two users were imprisoned in each prison listed in the passage.
The problem was that the condition of the users in prison became more serious as time went by. He had suffered a serious blow both physically and mentally. It was safe to say that the first female user discovered was in good condition. No, I thought that even the second and third rescued man, whose entire body was stained blue, and the female user with a protruding stomach were okay. Anyway, the limbs were still intact.
However, after that, the condition of the rescuers was so miserable and miserable that I could not bear to open my eyes.
“swimming… .”
“Oh, brother. “His condition is a little strange!”
“lol… .”
About 30 minutes had passed since the rescue operation began. In the last prison along the passageway where we entered for the first rescue, there was a boy imprisoned naked. He didn’t look like there was anything wrong with him on the outside. At least he was in much better condition than the users who had a hole in one place or another and other misfortunes. However, his eyes were unfocused, his face dead, and he was just making the sound of the wind escaping.
“Oh, brother. Why is he doing this? There doesn’t seem to be any injury anywhere… .”
“He must be mentally broken. “Take it out first.”
“huh. But the wound… .”
“… Turn it over and lay it down. “So that your buttocks are visible.”
“huh?”
Yujeong Lee tilted her head at my words and looked behind the boy. Eventually, she said “Ouch” from her lips. A weak scream came from the street. The boy’s back was covered in dried blood and was crushed in a very miserable state. Lee Yu-jeong opened her eyes wide and said with a face of disbelief.
“Hey, did you touch him too? “They’re the same guy?”
“… I don’t know. “It could have been touched by female tramps.”
“You crazy perverts!”
Lee Yu-jeong’s face seemed to turn pitiful, and then she suddenly got angry and burst into anger. At first glance, the boy was in a state of greater mental shock than physical shock. There was a total lack of facial expression. After looking at it calmly, I sighed heavily. Now I’ve only looked around one passage. There were no prisons ahead, so it was time to look around the remaining two sides.
It was the moment when I was about to turn around.
“Aaaah!”
“Aaaah!”
At the sudden sound of vomiting and crying mixed together, I hurriedly left the cavity. Then, An Sol and Baek Han-gyeol were seen lying face down at the same time in front of the male user whose limbs they had just rescued were bent in a deformed manner. Kim Han-byeol next to him didn’t go that far, but his face was pale.
“Oh, brother.”
Kim Han-byeol’s voice was trembling violently. Her eyes were focused neither on the user below nor on me. I was staring at someone exactly behind me. I slowly looked back. And there… .
“brother… .”
Ahn Hyeon was standing holding someone’s waist. I can’t see below his butt. There was a single male user with his head down, with severed limbs in both of his hands.
“… “Is he still alive?”
“yes. He said he was still alive. Take me with you first… .”
“okay. i get it. Let’s treat it quickly. “Bring him here and lay him down.”
“yes yes.”
Ahn Hyeon quickly moved the man to the floor. He didn’t feel any movement from him. As the late Yeonju said, he was alive, but he was as good as dead. I gestured for Kim Han-byeol to bring the two and asked An Hyun.
“How far down the aisle did you look? And how many people were trapped there?”
“that is… . Both aisles. And there was only this one guy.”
At Ahn Hyeon’s words, my hand stopped uncorking the potion I had just received. one person. 10 clan members in the shallows. 14 first rescuers. It was confirmed that one of them had died, so a total of 23 people were captured. I turned my head and counted the users lying in the passage. There were 7 people in total. That means all 16 people… .
“Oh brother. And Yeonju asked me to tell you this.”
“High performance? “I asked you to tell me something.”
“I heard you found a passage that goes down to the second basement level… .”
The moment I heard those words, the conversation I had with Marvolo briefly flashed through my head.
‘Margarita… . Well, what do you think happened? Giggling.’
