"It was just a coincidence. Who knows where you would hide?"
Nepheli retorted.
"Anyway, you'd better find a solution for me quickly!" Roger looked very anxious.
He came to Stoneville with his own purpose.
He had no interest in killing Greg and seizing the throne for himself, and with his abilities, he could easily find out the information he wanted without anyone noticing.
Everything was ruined by this woman who fell from the sky!
"If we can't get out, we'll all die! Don't you know how this city treats the Faded?"
Greg's evil act of amputation has become well-known far and wide.
Even Nimgfu lost its original name because of its ruler.
Nimgfu means the place of limb reunion.
"It's okay..."
The thin voice sounded again.
"Hehe...hehe."
The chuckle with a hint of dullness made people feel cold.
Even Nepheli couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
The two turned their heads.
In a cell nearby, a girl in white clothes and a red cloak was huddled in a corner, hugging her legs.
"Everyone had their limbs reattached..." The girl's gentle voice told the chilling truth: "The head, hands, and feet were all cut off and turned into parts of spiders..."
It seemed that she noticed Roger and Nepheli's gazes.
The girl raised her head.
She gave the two of them a smile that looked like she was being teased, without much rationality.
"Hehe... Did you know that after being attached to a spider, a person will look like a pupa? Isn't that amazing?"
"..." Roger and Nepheli looked at each other involuntarily.
This child...
Maybe he was stimulated by something.
"Are you also a Faded One?" Roger asked tentatively, holding the iron bars of the prison.
“Woo——” The girl wearing a red hood trembled.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." She shrank back into the corner of the already narrow cell. "I don't have the courage. It's too scary to have my hands and feet chopped off..."
Whispering and sobbing.
"Hey——" Roger didn't know what to do.
The girl's shoulders trembled, and a few strands of golden hair slipped out from under her hood.
This made Roger feel pity.
This girl is much better than that muscular, brainless girl who fell from the sky.
"Are you okay?" Roger asked gently.
Once upon a time, his face made countless girls bow down to him.
Roger was confident that he could cheer up Little Red Riding Hood in front of him.
"Do you also want to become part of the Spider like me?"
The girl raised her head, with traces of tears still on her face.
Even in the dim candlelight, her fair skin seemed to be shrouded in a layer of glow.
The azure eyes are like a gem.
"what's your name?"
Roger asked.
"Rodelika," Roderica said softly.
Roger felt that the sound was like a warm breeze emerging from the darkest abyss.
He held his breath and tried to remind himself in his heart: Roger! You already have someone in your heart.'
"My name is Roger." Roger answered
"Hey. Hey." Nefeli grabbed Roger's shoulder from behind: "My name is Nefeli-Lu."
Roger glanced back at her.
That look seemed to say.
'Who asked you?'
"Huh?" Nefeli was obviously not the kind of person who would just accept being ignored. She simply strangled Roger's neck.
"Ka- what are you doing- gu-"
"Tit for tat." Nefeli's voice was full of force.
Didn’t Roger cover her mouth before?
Roger felt that this ignorant crazy woman would really kill him!
His hands were groping about on the ground.
He picked up the thigh bone that had hit him before and hit Nepheli on the forehead with a bang.
Nefeli loosened her hand in pain, and Roger rolled towards Roderica's prison, away from Nefeli.
"You crazy woman!" Roger yelled.
Two guards popped their heads out from the end of the corridor.
Then he shrank back.
The life or death of the prisoners is of no consequence to them.
"Are you companions?" Roderica asked, blinking.
"no!"
Roger and Nepheli said in unison.
The two looked at each other fiercely, then turned their heads away.
After a moment of calm, Roger spoke seriously to Roderica.
"Listen, Roderica, we have to get out."
"Escape?" Roderica was stunned: "Why do you want to escape?"
"What are you talking about?" Roger was stunned by what Roderica said: "Do you want to wait for death here?"
"No, I won't leave." Rodlika moved uneasily: "I... I'm just a little scared... I don't want to escape, I will definitely become like everyone else..."

Thanks to the reader Nifenger for the reward.

"Are you going to stay here and die?" Nepheli grabbed the two metal fences in front of her, a look of disbelief on her face.
Upon hearing this, Roderica began to sob again.
"Everyone, everyone has had their limbs reattached..." Her shoulders trembled and she choked with sobs as she told the two the story of how she came here.
She was originally the daughter of a noble family who was born outside the border area.
However, because he saw the blessed light in the prophecy, he had to board a long-distance ship, pass through the fog, and arrive at the border.
As a daughter of a noble, she had loyal guards by her side even when embarking on an unknown journey, but Roderica's sadness came as suddenly as a blessing she could see.
In this decaying land, Roderica's guards failed to protect her from the malicious intent of the natives. Instead, they were all killed or captured alive by Greg's soldiers.
In this dark cell, Roderica saw her beloved companions being sacrificed one after another for limb reattachment in front of her.
"I will also...I will become a pupa like everyone else," Roderica buried her head in her knees, tears continuously falling down, choking with sobs and sobbing three times for every word she spoke.
Although, the soldiers have not yet come to capture her and tie her to the bloodstained amputation table.
But there was no hope left in the weak Roderica's heart.
She was just living in fear and despair day and night, hoping that she would at least have the courage to face her execution.
"Hey, cheer up!" Roger tried to shake the iron bars that were as still as a mountain. "Your companions must want you to survive, right? Let's escape together!"
"do not want!"
In response to Nefeli's advice, Roderica screamed.
"My companions, my companions--" She resisted Roger's proposal excitedly: "I love them, even if I am afraid now, but sooner or later I will become like them."
"Rodlika!" Roger shouted the name of the girl in front of him whom he had just met.
Nepheli pressed his shoulders: "It's useless."
The soldier shook his head: "She is crazy and can't be saved."
Nefeli looked at Roderica calmly at this moment.
As a warrior, she had seen many poor people driven mad by fear and despair.
Roderica's condition can be said to be very bad.
Although she was still able to communicate relatively normally, because of this, it was more difficult for her to recover than those who were simply frightened and became demented.
"Her brain is completely broken. I guess she won't be able to get out." Nepheli shook her head regretfully.
"How is that possible!" Roger retorted.
He looked worriedly at Roderica, who was holding her head and blocking out the outside world: "There must be a way..."
He couldn't bear to see that poor girl die in prison.
"The guards are coming!" Nefeli suddenly reminded.
I saw the exiled soldier, who had been indifferent to the details of the prison from the beginning, walking towards the corridor again.
Accompanying them was a lost knight, his armor clanking.
Nepheli and Roger stared at them closely, neither of them knowing what the soldiers would bring - anyway, looking at their hands, it was impossible for them to go to jail, only something bad.
"You won't execute him immediately, will you?"
The two of them were shocked.
The soldiers first opened Nefeli's cage. The reckless warrior immediately started cursing, and then tried to resist, but was knocked to the ground with an iron rod. The soldiers tied her up while she was grimacing.
"Be quiet! Someone wants to see you." The soldier said in a low voice.
Then there was Roger.
'Someone wants to see us?'
Roger frowned at this.
Who will meet them? The head of the prison?
Why meet them?
Roger didn't know.
It seemed as if the soldiers had no need to deceive them, as they would not gain anything from deceiving the victims of their limb-replacement sacrifices.
But at least.
Don't execute them now.
That would definitely buy some time.
