…

“Not bad at all,” Cao Xing praised.

This wave of looting directly enriched the basic supplies in his territory.

At this point, Cao Xing looked at the Phantom Assassin beside him, then said, “Sarah, take me to see the basement you mentioned.”

Sarah nodded slightly.

Then, under her lead, the group arrived at an inconspicuous small room.

However, being a Second Order Frost Mage, Cao Xing could also sense something off here.

There seemed to be some magic fluctuations in the room.

Moreover,

outside the room, there were some explosion traps, rope traps, and spikes traps set up.

This showed how much the Hunters valued this room.

Fortunately, Sarah had already dismantled these traps.

Upon pushing the door open, the facilities inside were equally ordinary.

Sarah directly went to the corner of the room and pointed at a wooden plank, saying, “It’s here.”

Cao Xing looked over.

[A wooden door of an underground passage inscribed with an Explosion Rune]

[Armor: 50 points]

[Durability Value: 1000 points]

[Attached Effect: Self-Destruction (If forced open, it will trigger a fire rune’s self-destruction, dealing 500 points of self-destructive damage to nearby creatures)]

…

Cao Xing pondered for a moment.

Self-destruction only dealt 500 points of damage, which was not a problem for them at all.

So, he directly said, “Sarah, open it.”

Hearing Cao Xing’s command, Sarah slashed it with one strike.

Bang!

The wooden door’s durability value dropped to zero.

Then, a scorching flame rose.

Boom!

After the explosion, everyone was unharmed.

It only shattered one layer of their Holy Shield.

Meanwhile,

the underground passage’s door opened, revealing a deep staircase inside.

Assam drew his longsword, “Lord, let me lead the way ahead.”

Cao Xing nodded, “Go ahead, Knight Assam.”

Then, the group followed Assam below and descended.

The staircase was deep and long.

Step… step…

As they ventured deeper, only the sound of footsteps echoed.

After advancing about a hundred meters or so,

Cao Xing discovered that they had entered a vast space.

[You have discovered the Hidden Area: Amu River Village Underground Prison]

“Oh? Is this an underground prison?”

Cao Xing’s eyes bore a puzzled look.

He then took out a Magic Energy Torch.

As the torch’s ghostly blue glow illuminated, the sights within the prison came before them.

Ahead, there was also a passage, with small rooms sealed with iron bars on either side.

Cao Xing walked to the door of one of the rooms and shone the torch inside.

He saw a human, similar to the one who ran out of the village, barely clothed, and covered in various wounds.

However, the person didn’t seem dead, as there was still a bit of breathing.

The attributes of the person appeared before him.

[Kingdom Soldier: Guillermo]

[Belonging Force: Ice Crystal Kingdom]

[Level: 24 (third-tier ordinary creature)]

[Life Value: 1194/11250]

[Attack Power: None]

[Skill: Intermediate Swordsmanship Mastery, Three-Stage Slash, Jump Slash]

[Status: Severe Injury, Hunger, Internal Injury, Cold, Frostbite…]

…

“How did a soldier from the Ice Crystal Kingdom end up here?”

Cao Xing’s eyes showed a puzzled expression.

He wanted to inquire for information, but the naked man was in a disoriented state.

No matter what Cao Xing said, he remained motionless in the corner.

It was apparent that he had been tortured into a stupor by those Hunters.

His array of negative statuses made it evident.

Even with a third-tier constitution, being tortured for a long time by the Hunters, compounded by the minus forty-degree temperature of the underground prison, even an iron man wouldn’t withstand it.

This soldier being alive now was probably because those Hunters intentionally left him with a last breath.

“Let’s go.”

Cao Xing shook his head and continued to advance deeper into the underground prison with the others.

Following the passage for about over 500 meters,

they found a total of more than thirty rooms.

Some were empty, while others contained a Kingdom Soldier tortured to the brink of death.

Their condition was the same as the first soldier’s, muddled and confused.

Cao Xing continued all the way to the innermost part of the prison.

Here, they found a room sealed with a thick iron door.

Inside, it seemed an important person was imprisoned.

He raised the torch and shone it inside.

A disheveled male, equally naked, cowered in the corner.

Cao Xing glanced at his attributes as well.

[Lieutenant: Declan Noble]

[Belonging Force: Ice Crystal Kingdom]

[Level: 28 (third-tier boss level creature)]

[Life Value: 1713/25300]

[Attack Power: None]

[Skill: Intermediate Imperial Swordsmanship, Five-Stage Slash, Sword Energy Burst, Chaotic Dance]

[Talent: None]

[Status: Severe Injury, Internal Injury, Hunger, Cold, Frostbite…]

“Wow, a boss-level Lieutenant?”

Cao Xing’s eyes showed a look of surprise.

Moreover, he found that this lieutenant was different from the other prisoners, as the latter retained the last bit of sanity.

Cao Xing directly asked, “You’re a Lieutenant of the Ice Crystal Kingdom? How did you end up here?”

The lieutenant looked at Cao Xing, and a terrifying smile gradually appeared on his cracked lips!
