" Where the f * ck is this???"
Alex looked at where he was and was speechless.
Surrounding them was a vast plain filled with snow and wind. The white snow covered the horizon, and in front of them was…
A castle.
A huge castle that was completely out of place in the surroundings sat in front of Alex. The reason was that in this place where the wind and snow were mixed, the castle in front of him did not have a single white color. After a period of observation, Alex came out. The snowflakes that were blowing towards the castle seemed to be repelled by a transparent barrier, making people shudder.
“......”
Of course, Alex did not know this place, let alone this castle. He grew up in the warm southern region. Although he had seen winter, he was not used to this place that looked extremely cold.
Fortunately, the temperature of this place was neither cold nor hot. It was a very comfortable environment.
However, this made Alex feel even stranger. How did he manage to maintain such a temperature without melting the snow in this snowy weather?？？
Of course, this world itself was not scientific, so he did not dwell on this matter.
Alex walked towards the castle's gate. The metal gate, which was probably more than ten meters tall, was tightly pressed together. Alex gave up after a little try----he couldn't even stuff his hair in!
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Alex began to seriously think about what was going on.
If his memory was correct, he should have been eating at the headquarters of the night raid. Although it was possible that he had fallen asleep because of the sudden sleepiness, he should not have suddenly appeared here, right?!
Could it be that his plan to lure the Empire's soldiers to launch a sneak attack was discovered? That wasn't right either. If he really wanted to kill me, it wouldn't have been much faster to just use Village Rain's casual pull.
Just as Alex's imagination was running wild, he suddenly heard a voice.
It was the sound of gears turning.
Judging from the sound alone, it was definitely a huge gear, and there was definitely more than one. The reason for this sound was…
Alex looked at the metal door and found that the door was slowly opening a gap. Although it was a gap in name, it was easy for a person to squeeze in.
Since he didn't know what to do now, Alex stood up from the ground and walked slowly into the castle.
The interior of the castle was not as dark as he had imagined. Instead, it could be said to be brightly lit. Alex discovered another strange thing. Although the candles looked like they were burning, there was no smoke…
After all, the interior of the castle was basically filled with candles, and the seemingly completely sealed castle did not have the slightest smoke smell. It could only be explained that the candles did not smoke at all.
However, there were too many unscientific things, so Alex was not too surprised.
In front of him was a hall with several tables. At the end of the hall, he seemed to see something that looked like a throne. Seeing that there was no one around, Alex ran to the throne for a while.
However, he came down in a few minutes. The throne was so cold that it was as if it was made of ice. If he didn't come down soon, his butt would probably freeze off.
After strolling around the hall for a long time, Alex did not find any other exit, so he gathered his strength.
"Is anyone there?"
Alex only shouted once, but his voice echoed throughout the hall, making him feel like his ears were about to explode.
"Boom boom…"
The sound of gears could be heard again. The floor in front of Alex's throne began to sink, as if it was connected to the underground space.
Alex carefully walked down. Just as he reached the ground, he smelled the smell of mud.
Alex estimated that this place had not been opened for at least a few hundred years.
The ground was not as bright as the ground. On the contrary, there were only a few candles that could barely illuminate the ground. Moreover, they looked like they were about to burn out. This place also had a special…A stench.
It was like the smell of a decaying corpse. However, it seemed that after so many years, the smell was not completely sealed here. Could it be that there were ventilation facilities?
“！！！！！！”
Just as Alex was wandering underground, he suddenly saw a few white shadows?!
He shook his head, but the shadows had already disappeared.
"Good girl…Did I see a ghost?"
Although he was a little afraid, Alex's interest at this time was completely beyond fear. Do you think a skull is scary, or do you think Chi Tong is scary?
Anyway, Alex said that the latter would definitely beat the former by a few hundred streets in seconds.
The further he went, the more shadows there were. Alex was no longer afraid of those shadows.
Some of the shadows looked like a few craftsmen who were hammering something together. Some of them were dressed like laborers, as if they were pulling something huge. There were even strong people standing in a row, holding something and testing it.
Could it be that this place used to be a factory?
As Alex walked, the light became clearer and clearer. Although they could not see what they were holding in their hands, they could tell from their expressions that some of them were happy, some were regretful, and some were…Pain?
"Bang."
Alex seemed to have mentioned something. He squatted down and picked up a skull. "Yo, brother, are you alright?"
Earlier, he saw a person with a pained expression lying here. It seemed to be this person.
"Yes, I'm fine. Don't worry.”
A surprising moment appeared! The skull in Alex's hand that had been dead for hundreds of years opened its mouth! "But if you wake up again, I'll have to 'bury' you.”
" Wah!!!"
Alex suddenly opened his eyes and realized…He was lying on the bed, and on the stool beside him sat Chi Tong, who was swinging his white legs. The latter had the one-hit-kill Murasame in one hand, and the other hand was eating the special treatment Alex had given him.
“... Chi Tong?"
"Looks like you're finally awake." Chi Tong stood up. "I'm going to report to Boss. We'll meet in the hall in ten minutes.”
" Phew." Seeing that Scarlet Eye had already walked to the door, Alex wiped the non-existent sweat off his forehead. "Looks like I had a dream…"
"Yes, you had a very long dream.”
Chi Tong, who was about to leave, suddenly spoke. "Oh right, I will also tell you the truth about how you want to lure the soldiers of the empire to ambush us.”
Then, Chi Tong closed the door.
Then, Alex felt that he might as well fall asleep.
