Wizard Immortal

Chapter 157 The Dark Prison (Second Update)

Inside the spacious yet cluttered room, the wind outside was blowing constantly, carrying bursts of rain in all directions.

Standing in the wind and rain, Adir glanced at the corpse beneath him, and after confirming that there were no problems, he turned his gaze to the wooden bed behind him.

After the fierce battle, the spacious room was in disarray, littered with crimson blood and bits of flesh, resembling a murder scene, though it wasn't too conspicuous under the cover of darkness.

On the wooden bed in the corner of the room, Lati was still lying there. Even though Adir had caused such a big tremor, she showed no sign of waking up, lying there quietly like a sleeping beauty.

To some extent, this was also caused by Adir.

Even before entering the town, he sensed something was amiss and had anticipated what was to come. Therefore, he deliberately cast a spell to put Lati into a deep sleep so as not to disturb his subsequent actions.

He quickly walked to the wooden table next to him, hugged Lati in his arms, and gently stroked her forehead. A wisp of spiritual energy was instantly transmitted out, destroying the previous spell's effect.

Under Adir's gaze, Lati slowly opened his eyes.

"Ah... Lord Adir."

As soon as she opened her eyes, she found herself in Adir's arms, her face immediately turning red, and she let out a scream.

Before Adir could speak, she realized something was wrong.

The door to the room was open, and the wind howled in, carrying with it a strong stench of blood, instantly clearing her mind: "What is this?"

"Latti, go and tell Sidm and the others to gather in this room."

In the dim, lightless darkness, Adir's calm voice rang out: "There's something wrong with this town. Those residents are all monsters in disguise. Tell them to be careful."

As he spoke, he helped Lati up, then walked to the side of the room, picked up his longsword, and quickly went out into the howling wind and rain.

Stepping outside, the howling wind began to pick up, and in the pitch-black night, it was extremely difficult for ordinary people to even see the road clearly.

But this was naturally no problem for Adir, whose elven bloodline gave him a natural advantage in this regard, allowing him to see very clearly even in the darkest of nights.

He glanced in the direction he was going, then walked straight out into the howling wind without making a sound or letting out any extra scent. Even if someone stood right in front of him, they would hardly notice him.

Adir had the chip record the terrain of this area during the day, so walking around shouldn't be a big problem.

Under the monitoring of the chip, the gradually rising radiation reaction could be detected from a great distance. It was right there, as bright as a beacon in the night, so he didn't need to bother finding the target.

He walked quietly along the path, his pace was fast but he made no sound, and he concealed his aura to the extreme, achieving the best possible disguise.

In addition to these, when he walks, he also spreads out his mental energy. If there is any movement within a five-meter radius around him, Adir will immediately know and react quickly.

After a while, he walked to a corridor, at the end of which was a room with a faint light flashing inside.

The door to the room was open. Adir observed for a while and found that apart from the light, there was no one inside. Only a faint light swayed in the wind.

Without the slightest hesitation, he entered the room and went to the source of the light.

In the corner of the room, several torches were burning, their flames flickering in the breeze, causing the light to change constantly, sometimes bright and sometimes dim.

Beside these torches, a path wide enough for two people to walk side by side was open, leading straight underground, its destination unknown.

Under the chip's detection, the radiation in front is constantly increasing, and it's located underground.

Facing the blowing wind, Adir stepped forward and went down the stairs below.

The staircase wasn't too long, and with some torches illuminating the area, it was relatively easy to walk up.

After walking this distance, Adir arrived at another spacious room.

A stench emanated from the surroundings, a mixture of the smells of blood, rotting flesh, and excrement, causing Adir to frown.

A sound of weeping and pitiful howling came from the side, attracting Adir's attention.

Following the sound, he walked in that direction and witnessed a bloody scene.

The torchlight shone brightly in the spacious area.

Bloodstained wooden strips, quenched iron daggers, fishing nets sewn with blades... Dozens of instruments of torture were laid out naked around, all stained with deep, dried blood, and looked like they had been used for a long time.

Around them, numerous corpses lay scattered about, their deaths extremely gruesome. Many bodies had missing chunks of flesh, appearing as if they had been devoured alive by something, their deaths too painful to behold.

Upon leaving this space, a strong stench of blood mixed with a chilling aura assaulted his senses, causing Adir to frown.

"The negative energy here is almost comparable to the cultivation site of the Necromancer's Flower."

As he casually surveyed his surroundings, even with Adir's sharp mind, he couldn't help but think to himself.

The blooming of the Necromancer Flower requires the most vicious methods to torture a person to death, and then water it with the resentful blood from the body of the dead. The negative energy present here is enough to cultivate the Necromancer Flower.

Even with just a mental contact, Adir could sense the large amount of negative energy contained in the surrounding environment, as well as the lingering madness and resentment, which made him feel a chill.

However, there are still people around in this environment, and quite a few of them.

In the corner of the room, there were huge black iron cages, with several figures inside, all lying on the ground, barely alive.

Occasionally, sobs and venomous curses could be heard from the surroundings, echoing continuously in the room for a long time.

"No...don't come any closer." A voice came from the corner, causing Adir to turn around and look.

It was a girl of about twenty years old. Her face was contorted with madness. Although she didn't have any major wounds, her body was covered in asphalt, and both her arms were completely missing. She was naked and trapped against the wall, her eyes flashing with madness and despair.

In front of the girl, several arm bones lay there, with some remnants of flesh and blood still on them, not yet completely gnawed away. It looked like the two arms the girl had lost.

In the other cages, there were several other figures, most of whom appeared to be missing limbs and had extremely pitiful expressions.

Seeing this, Adir sighed and was about to walk out.

A faint groan suddenly came from the front, coming from a corner.

Under Adir's gaze, in that corner, two tall men with twisted and ferocious faces were standing there, getting dressed.

Beneath them, a small girl lay quietly on the ground; she was the same girl who had led Adir and the others into the town earlier.

At this moment, she was completely naked, her face blank, and the bruises on her body had increased significantly. She felt nothing despite being naked; she simply got up from the ground and picked up her even more badly torn clothes.

Snapped!

A crisp sound rang out from the front, carrying all the unique tearing sounds of clothes being ripped apart.

Standing in front of the girl, watching her put on her clothes, a burly man laughed and stretched out his arm, which was as thick as a normal person's thigh, and tore her clothes completely to shreds into pieces.

Watching his actions, the girl's numb face showed a look of fear, as if she was terrified of them, appearing so helpless in the light of the surrounding torches.

Seemingly having had enough, the two men laughed for a while, then walked away to another corner.

After they left, Bonnie's numbness became more pronounced. She struggled to stand up, her legs completely weak, and tried to find a piece of cloth that was still intact among the torn clothes on the ground to cover herself.

"Looks like you're a normal person."

A voice suddenly came from in front of her, gentle and calm, causing Bonnie to look up and see the figure in front of her.

That was Adir, who was now standing in front of her, his gaze unchanged as he looked at her bruises: "Tell me everything that happened here."

"it's useless···"

Seeing Adir suddenly appear in front of her, the girl's face showed surprise, but then she quickly regained her composure: "You've already entered this town, those people won't let you go."

"Those people?"

Adir's expression remained unchanged, only a cold smile appeared on his face: "You mean this whole town is full of monsters?"

"You actually knew?" The girl was taken aback, looking somewhat shocked and confused.

Adir didn't explain anything to her confusion, but simply took off his black robe and draped it over the girl: "Stand here."

After leaving those words, he turned and walked towards the black iron cage to the side, pushing open the iron doors.

"Help...help me..."

Looking at Adir's figure, the girl who had lost both arms had a flicker of excitement in her previously manic eyes, as if a dying traveler in the desert had seen an oasis and was about to receive a last glimmer of hope.

A swift sword gust swept past, and to the girl's astonishment, the black longsword sliced ​​across her neck, the incredibly powerful strike carrying away a beautiful head.

She felt no pain; her will fell into a state of utter stillness, and her already ravaged body began to slowly lose its vitality.
