Princess' personal painter

"Among the intelligence, didn't they find out that there are many caves on this coast?" Irene analyzed, "If their purpose is here and they want to search for something in this area, then it would make sense. Moreover, the terrain here is very strange and does not seem to be formed naturally."

Quietly looking at the girl in her arms, Eunika suddenly felt in a trance.

For her, because she has always been by Sisyana's side, the things that need to be considered have always been left to Sisyana or her brother Wenjiesi, and she has never paid attention to these things.

Now hearing Irene's serious speech, Eunika bit her lips quietly, and asked in a low voice: "What you said, does it help us to be rescued?"

"Assuming that in this area, the passages inside the cave are very complicated, it may not be so easy to find our location when my sister discovers our disappearance and comes to rescue us." Eileen paused, recalling Sisi Yana's character, whispered, "And, if it is her, it is very likely that in order to prevent the worst from happening, the first place to investigate must be the sunken area?"

"Sia will indeed do that." Eunika nodded.

Irene went on to say: "Then, because the terrain here is more complicated than imagined, or for some other reason, she just happened to miss our position, and that's why she never found our position."

Eunika asked, "I see. Are you saying that there are any secrets hidden in this area?"

"Otherwise, it would be completely incomprehensible for the orcs to send so many soldiers." Irene said very firmly, "and, at the last moment, the orc priests sank this area into the sea, perhaps more like thinking to hide something."

Eunika turned her head and looked deep into the cave. It was so dark inside that it was a little chilling.She frowned slightly, and asked aloud: "Is it necessary to go in and search?"

But I saw Erin burst out laughing with a "puchi", and asked with a blink of an eye, "Aren't you afraid of the dark?"

"I..." The teasing meaning in the girl's tone was a bit obvious, and Eunika was speechless for a while, and glared at Erin with unkind eyes.

Irene pursed her lips, exhaled lightly, raised her eyes and asked, "I was hurt to death by you just now... I can't hold on anymore, I want to sleep again, I can borrow your thigh to lie down again A while?" While speaking, she noticed that the girl's eyes softened a lot, and she added in a low voice, "I'm hungry, can you find a way to get something to eat?"

"You..." Realizing that the other party dared to order her, Eunika was stunned for a moment, and wanted to refuse angrily, but the girl in her arms closed her eyes after saying this, and soon fell into a deep sleep. sleep.

For a girl, what happened on this day is indeed a bit too tiring.

As the night fell, the clear starlight spread quietly on the sea water, and Eunika looked at the girl on her lap, unconsciously walking for a long time.

Erin's sleeping position is very cute, she looks like a kitten.

There is a spontaneous... desire to protect?

Time passed silently, and when Eunika's body recovered a bit, she thought for a while, and then gently put Erin on the ground.She got up and explored around the cave, picked up some floating wood on the sea surface, put it out of the wind to dry, and spent a lot of effort to catch a few fish from the sea.

After several hours, when the moisture on the surface of the wood had lost some, Eunika built a simple pile of wood at the entrance of the cave, and lit the wood in the most primitive way.With a continuous crackling sound, the dancing flames grew from small to large, gradually illuminating this square inch of space.

It was the smell of grilled fish that woke Erin up again.

She turned over with a grunt at first, as if she was dissatisfied with the disappearance of the "lap pillow", but when she opened her eyes and saw the fish that Eunika had put on the bonfire, her spirits suddenly lifted , said in a surprised tone: "Is this something to eat? It smells so good!"

With that said, Erin got up from the ground, and "jumped" towards the campfire in a few steps.

Noticing that the other party just fell asleep, she returned to being alive and kicking. While being amazed by the girl's resilience, Eunika was also speechless at her actions, so she handed one of the grilled fish to Irene. Nika reminded aloud: "Be careful when eating, so as not to infect the wound."

"Yeah, I will." Irene nodded and took the delicious food, put it to her mouth and took a bite carefully, showing an expression of enjoyment, "It's delicious, I didn't expect you to really get something to eat...you Nika, I love you to death!"

Chapter 64 The Central Peak and the Cave at the End

After eating the grilled fish, Erin almost recovered her strength.

After discussing with Eunika, the two decided to go to the top of the cliff to check the situation.

"Hold me tight." When the two came to the entrance of the cave, Eunika let Erin lie on her back and said seriously, "If you fall, you will bear the consequences."

"Don't worry, I cherish myself very much." Erin said with a smile as she leaned against Eunika's back, feeling the girl's body temperature, "It's like 'if you can't hold on anymore, let me go' I definitely won't say such a thing. Unika's body is so comfortable, I won't let it go easily!"

Naturally knowing what Erin was referring to, Eunika snorted with a straight face, ignored the girl who deliberately made fun of her, and began to climb up the cliff.

Compared with Irene who has no martial skills, Unika's climbing speed is not known to be much faster.Even if she only recovered [-]% of her strength at this time, it was enough to cope with this steep cliff. Her agile body hardly stagnated, and it took only half a minute for her to climb to the top of the cliff with Irene without any danger.

With the help of the bright moonlight, the two of them saw clearly the scene in their field of vision, and fell into shock for a moment.

Erin's conjecture was not wrong, this area did sink into the bottom of the sea as she said, but the sunken area was much wider than she thought.I saw that the area with a radius of several kilometers turned into a mess, and there was a faint fire on a coastline at the end of the line of sight.

From the looks of it, it was very likely that it was the camp where Wakabayashi's army was stationed.

"So that's the case, my sis is also facing a difficult choice this time." Irene said softly.

Eunika was slightly taken aback, and suddenly realized something.

"According to the area and speed at which the land sank during the day, without her shot, the entire army probably wouldn't be able to escape." Irene sighed softly, her eyes were a little wet, "Even if we found our Missing, my elder sister can only ignore us and choose to save more people..."

Eunika's face turned pale for a moment, and she murmured, "Is that so?"

"Because, this is something that only she can do, and it's also what my sister has always believed in." Irene said with emotion.

For some reason, the feeling of heartache suddenly hit, and Eunika clutched her chest and murmured, "I've always believed that Siya would come to save me... just like a fool." Such willful words , Eunika probably can only speak out in front of Erin who holds the same "position".

"However, there is another reason." Irene turned around and grabbed Eunika's hand, smiling and comforting, "Because I came to you when you fell behind, so you are not alone ...She believes in us very much, and believes that we can work together to get out of danger!"

Although this reason was not enough to convince Eunika, it did calm her down a bit.

The refreshing sea breeze was blowing, and Eunika closed her eyes for a while, her expression became much firmer, and she whispered: "Xia must be working hard to find us now, we have to join her as soon as possible, We can't let her worry any longer."

In the surrounding field of vision, the few land areas that are still exposed on the sea surface, just like the cliffs where the two are at this time, have formed many towering isolated islands on the sea surface, dotted in this semicircular sea area.Among them, in the middle of the sea area, there is a tall "mountain" that looks rather unusual.

The two looked at each other, and then determined the next destination from each other's eyes.

In the following time, Eunika found a pine tree on the top of the cliff, cut it down, and spent some time making a simple raft, then returned to the shore at the bottom with Irene, got on the raft and went to The central "mountain" drives away.

Not long after, the two came to the edge of the "mountain" on a raft, and looked up under the faint starlight. When they saw the scene in their vision, they couldn't help but gasped.

Countless corpses were hung on the cliff, including human beings, animals and domestic animals, and even the corpses of many orcs.Some of these corpses have long been air-dried, while others look very fresh and are still dripping with blood, which looks quite terrifying.

"Is this some kind of evil ritual?" Eunika asked with a frown.

Feeling the surrounding atmosphere, Erin stared at the mountain in front of her thoughtfully: "There is no magic power fluctuation, but there is a strange smell coming from it..." After a pause, her eyes suddenly flickered. Liang turned his head and said, "Besides, I can smell my elder sister, she is right here!"

"Let's go there." Eunika was taken aback for a moment, her eyes became moist for a moment, and she unconsciously grabbed Erin's hand next to her.

Feeling the girl's nervousness, Erin turned her head and asked, "Is there any problem?"

"The strength has recovered by about [-]%." Eunika nodded. "This is enough to deal with possible enemies. I won't be careless this time."

"You know, that's not what I want to ask." Irene shook her head lightly, and asked in a worried tone, "...Can you really do it? I don't have much fighting power right now! "

Eunika was taken aback for a moment, and replied in a low voice, "I don't know."

There was still confusion in the tone.

Where the raft docked, there were stone steps extending upwards in front of it.Irene squatted down to check the stone steps, and found that it was covered with various corrosion marks, which seemed to be a bit old.She couldn't help feeling puzzled, and asked, "Are there any relics or legends in this area?"

"I don't know." Eunika shook her head. "If there is, Xi Ya should know, right? She is most interested in these things."

The two kept a certain degree of caution, walked up the winding stone steps, and did not encounter any enemies along the way, so it took less than half an hour to reach the end of the road.

The open space in front of him was arranged like an altar, and beside the open space was a dark cave.

Irene and Eunika could clearly feel that something powerful was dormant in the depths of the mountain, as if waiting for their arrival.At the same time, Sisyana's unique magic element in the air here also became clearer in Irene's sense of smell.

"My lord...it's inside!" Irene said in a firm tone.

Since this was the only way, and the person they cared about was inside, naturally there was nothing to hesitate. The two of them lit the torches they had prepared earlier, and stepped into the suspicious cave together.

Chapter 65 Eunika's Demon

Contrary to the stairs outside, the passage inside the cave is all the way down, slightly steep.

The flickering flames barely illuminated the cave wall, and the two walked deep into the cave.Since she couldn't see the road under her feet, Erin had to reach out and grab Unika's clothes to prevent her from falling.In this regard, Eunika acquiesced in her actions.

There seems to be a powerful and vicissitudes of existence in the depths of the cave, which is somewhat similar to the atmosphere of Kamila Palace underground in Karenin.

In other words, this group of orc priests has stayed here for such a long time, and it is also closely related to the secrets hidden in the depths of the cave.In addition, the reason why this coastal area sank is for the same reason, right?

Expand your senses and try to collect all the information you can get.The two walked for a while, when Irene suddenly grabbed Eunika's clothes and said in a very soft voice, "Wait a minute."

Eunika stopped, only to hear the girl beside her whisper to her: "There may be enemies ahead."

Although I don't know how Irene found out, but Eunika knew that she had some very special "talents", so she was not surprised by this, and asked in a low voice, "How?"

"Try it first."

After all, Irene took Unika and walked forward dozens of steps, and there were some fire lights in front of her sight, coming from the corner of the passage.I saw Irene picked up a stone from the ground, raised her hand and threw it forward, the rolling sound of the stone echoed clearly between the cave walls.

This movement obviously alarmed the orcs in front, and faint voices came over.At the same time, footsteps were slowly approaching them.

After listening to this movement, Irene came to a conclusion, turned her head and said to Unica: "Three enemies, there is no threat, let's go there." This time, she did not deliberately suppress her volume.

Eunika nodded, and walked forward with Erin beside her.

At the corner, the two bumped into an orc who came over to check the situation.

Seeing the two human girls appearing suddenly, the orc was obviously taken aback, said something loudly, then raised the stick in his hand and rushed towards them.

The strength of this orc is only slightly stronger than that of ordinary human soldiers. Not to mention Unika, even Irene can deal with this level of attack with her keen five senses.Eunika stepped forward, reached out and grabbed the swung stick, and easily snatched the weapon away.

After hearing a "bang", Eunika slammed the stick on the orc's head with her backhand.

The orc's tall body swayed, then turned in a circle and collapsed to the ground.

This funny scene made Erin want to laugh for a moment, but she stuck out her tongue and made no sound after all.

The two of them kept walking, walked around the corner and came to a flat platform, and saw the other two orcs looking at this side nervously, holding their weapons as if they wanted to retreat.Erin turned her head and glanced at Unika before walking towards the enemy head-on.

It was just a face-to-face meeting, and there was almost no substantial resistance. Eunika easily knocked the two orcs unconscious just like before.

After clearing away the enemies, Irene inspected the platform a little.

Unlike the passages along the way, this place seems to have been dug not long ago, and the chisel marks on the walls are still fresh.In addition to connecting the up and down roads, the side of the platform is also connected to the cliff. Near the entrance of the cave, the disgusting smell of corpses blows with the night wind.

Erin frowned, but she still didn't go there after all.

It seems that the orcs used such a platform to hang those corpses on the cliff outside.

Apart from this, no other information has been obtained for the time being.Irene thought about it and turned to Unica: "Is the purpose of these arrangements some kind of mysterious ceremony? Do you know?"

Eunika shook her head: "I just heard that there will be a sacrificial ceremony using live animals within the orc clan, but I don't know about it."

The two continued walking along the descending stairs. During this period, Erin said softly: "I want to ask a question, but I don't know if you won't be angry...Can I speak?"

Eunika was silent for a while, then said lightly: "Speak."

"Eunika, have you ever killed someone before?"

When she heard the question, Eunika's body trembled, and it took a long while before she simply answered: "Yes."

"Is there?" Eileen asked back.

The atmosphere became a little stagnant for a while, and Eunika was in a trance for a while before she said lightly: "Once... If you asked me if I killed someone today, the answer is no."

"Is it because of a soft heart?" Irene asked softly, "I want to hear Unika's story, is that okay?"
