The son of the dragon who walks

Chapter 334 Winnie
The dungeon is a mystery unknown to the gods, and the mechanisms that have been explored now all show that the dungeon is conscious.

And monsters are also part of the dungeon, and their hostility towards adventurers and survival instincts are their only awareness.

However, for some unknown reason, some monsters have intelligence.And these monsters that gave birth to wisdom are also called "heretics".

These heretics are not accepted by adventurers because of their status as monsters, but they are also hostile by other monsters because they have broken away from the will of the dungeon. They are a population living in the cracks.

Of course, their existence is a secret.And the one who helped them cover their tracks was <Sage> Fels who was ordered by the great god Uranus.

Uranus, who was guarding the dungeon, was the first to learn of the existence of heretics, and then he began to think about the possibility of coexistence between humans and monsters.

The monster festival held by the Ganesha family every year is to eliminate the fear of monsters from human beings, and it can be regarded as a preparation for that purpose.

So in addition to Uranus and Fels, Ganesha may also know some inside information.Of course, there is another one who knows, and that is Hermes who has been cooperating.

There really is no place without the god of fun.

In the original plot, the heretics caused a major event, which greatly affected the subsequent plot.

That incident had a particularly great impact on the protagonist Bell, and it can even be said to be a turning point in his growth.

Before that, Bell had dreams of being the hero of the story, but it was vague.

After experiencing the heresy incident, especially after being accused of being a hypocrite, Bell finally became clear about his heroic path and truly matured.

Of course, it was also in this incident that Bell also met his fateful opponent.A special kind of black Minotaur heretic, who is loved as a cow girl and a true heroine, even if she is reincarnated, she will not forget Bell's Asterios.

And the beginning of the incident is that Bell met and rescued a dragon girl heretic.

Charles didn't know when this dragon girl named Winnie by Bell was born, but now she appeared in front of him.

When Shire and Stella had just entered the big tree maze on the nineteenth floor, they found a group of people running straight towards them.

Generally speaking, in order to save energy when venturing in a dungeon, one would not move forward at an excessively fast speed.

So the actions of these people are very strange, and the breath that Charles perceives has a disgusting feeling.

Before the two could decide whether to check it out, a petite figure ran out of the woods.

The wound on her face was still bleeding, and she looked terrified.After seeing Ciel and Stella, the expression on his face turned into despair.

She wanted to run away in another direction, but she was exhausted from running all the way just now, her feet were weak and she fell to the ground in embarrassment.

Stella thought that there was a monster attack, but she didn't expect it to be such an existence like the little girl.

Ciel has been teaching her about dungeons at this stage, but she hasn't talked about heresy, so she doesn't know what to do for a while.

"Charles, what's going on?"

Facing Stella's question, Charles sighed and said, "I'll talk about it later, someone else is coming."

As soon as Charles finished speaking, six people emerged from the jungle.

Charles looked at them and couldn't help frowning.

Winnie's strength is equivalent to LV3.Although I don't know if these people carry magic swords, but there is a LV2 archer among them, if they want to kill her, she shouldn't escape.

There was only one reasonable explanation left, and that was that they didn't want to kill Winnie at all.This is not the idea that normal adventurers would have.

After the six people appeared, they first glanced at the fallen Weini, with a flash of greed in their eyes, and then they looked at Charles and Stella.

The skinny man at the head said, "Hey, according to the rules of the dungeon, that guy is our prey, so don't interfere!"

Stella hasn't figured out the situation yet, but she has already begun to hate the rude man opposite.

Charles thought about it for a while, and then said: "You are from the Icarus family!"

The faces of the six people changed. What they did in the dungeon was not something that could be seen in the light, so they didn't carry anything with the family logo.

But their identities were still recognized, which made them startled.

The thin man said with a cold face: "So what? Are you going to snatch our prey?"

The little human behind him pulled him and said, "Hey, he seems to be the dragon furnace of the Hephaestus family!"

The skinny man's complexion was even uglier.He doesn't have any bottom line, so he doesn't mind killing people when his actions are exposed.

After all, it's not like they haven't done this kind of thing before, and the monsters in the dungeon will erase all traces.

But the other party turned out to be Long Furnace, one of the best adventurers in Orario, killing people to silence him?Don't be kidding, you can't do it with a headshot!

Of course Charles knew why these people were chasing him so hard.Although Icarus is a regular family member, what he does in private is no different from that of the dark faction.

One of them is to sell the monsters captured from the dungeon to people other than Orari.After all, monsters are Olalie's specialty.

No matter what world you are in, there are always some people with eccentric habits.What's more, this is a world with a backward civilization.

With those people as the source, there will naturally be dirty deals.

After all, those people would even capture humans as slaves, not to mention monsters whose positions were originally opposed.

The Icarus family is particularly special, and its leader is the descendant of the Daedalus family, the "Brutalist" Dix.

The way to poach monsters and resell them outside Orario is the man-made labyrinth built by the Daedalus family.

Not only poaching, but many activities of the dark faction are facilitated by the Daedalus family because they want to raise funds.

Last time, Shire and the Loki family swept away the dark faction and fallen fairy hidden in the man-made maze Cronus.

But after all, it was a huge building built by the Daedalus family for tens of thousands of years to compare with the underground city.So until now, it has not been able to completely clear the man-made maze.

Especially in the area controlled by the Daedalus family, the progress of the strategy is very slow.So their dark dealings are still going on.

Only the members of the Icarus family would think of catching monsters alive at this time, because live monsters are more valuable to them than magic stones.

Charles is not so holy, he will pity the monster who is irrational, and human beings are natural enemies.

But heretics are different. They have emotions, anger, sorrow, and joy, and can communicate with others.They will not take the initiative to be enemies of human beings, they just want to live well.Their souls are the same as human beings.

But Dix regards them as more valuable commodities, and even relieves his blood curse with the pleasure of torturing them.

Under the leadership of Dix, one can imagine what the members of the Icarus family are like.No wonder the breath I perceived before was so disgusting.

So Charles raised his eyelids and said, "Stop talking nonsense, give me... Get lost!"

The skinny man wanted to say something, but was stopped by his companion.

"We'll leave right away, this prey will be given to you!"

With a smile, the cat-human adventurer pulled his captain and walked into the distance.

When he couldn't see Xia Er at all, the thin man said, "Is this the only way to swallow this breath?"

The cat-man adventurer said, "Of course not, but we can't defeat that dragon furnace. Let's go back and find Dix."

Charles could guess what these people were thinking, but he just didn't care.

Turning his head, Charles looked at Winnie who had fallen to the ground.

Stella had already walked in front of her, but Winnie backed away in fright.

Stella smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't hurt you. My name is Stella, what's your name?"

Looking at the smile on Stella's face, Winnie clearly felt that she was different from those before.

So she tilted her head to look at Stella, and said like a babbling child, "Stella? Name?"

Stella's eyes became more gentle, and she said, "That's right, Stella is my name, don't you have a name?"

Looking at the warm scene in front of him, Charles couldn't help but feel as if he and Stella had picked up a daughter.

Stella turned her head and said, "Charles, let's give her a name!"

Charles nodded and said, "Wini, the name comes from the elf Verunia with wings of light in the fairy tales of this world."

"Winnie! Winnie!"

Repeating the name over and over again, the dragon girl showed a cheerful smile.
