Chapter 331: 329 I’ve Come to Save You_1
Translator: 549690339
Unbeknownst to them, it had been a month since the battle between the undead and the Metal Dragon took place.
Even after so much time had passed, Otto’s main body remained submerged in a deep slumber underground.
During this time, the Burrowing Worms never stopped working.
Although Otto’s Dragonman avatar occasionally experienced some memory lapses, it was still mostly indistinguishable from a normal person.
At his request, the Burrowing Worms had built an enormous underground labyrinth around his main body.
Once Otto’s main body awakens from its slumber, it wouldn’t be a problem for him to play the role of a dungeon master.
These tasks were completed on the side. Besides these, Otto’s primary goal was to split his vast array of minions and followers into separate groups.
The Soaring Dragon Legion stayed with the Soaring Dragon Legion, and the Holy Light Legion, which came from Caran and the Black Iron Dwarves, became an independent force.
Soon, under Otto’s deliberate arrangements, all forces except the Soaring Dragon Legion withdrew from Yellow Sand City.
No one dared to defy Otto’s wishes, and Yellow Sand City quickly became a haven for monsters.
However, there are always exceptions.
In the dungeon of Yellow Sand City, a few dirty and ragged individuals leaned against the damp, sandy walls with listless expressions.
Upon closer inspection, weren’t these the members of the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce?
Black Rose, Lady Bauhinia, and Heel, three stunning beauties with different styles, looked extremely disheveled at this moment.
Their faces were dirty, and their clothes, which resembled old rags, barely covered their most private areas.
But even dressed like this, many people probably wouldn’t have any unsavory thoughts about them.
Look at them, they hadn’t bathed for days and were covered in filth and stench.
Due to not having proper food for a long time, their bodies were emaciated, and they seemed listless.
Being in the dark and damp dungeons for so long, they even developed some skin diseases, with festering sores appearing on their fair skin.
Their hair was matted with an assortment of unidentifiable debris, and fleas and lice have made their home in it.
It seemed that, aside from some indiscriminate creatures, no one could possibly lay a hand on them.
At this moment, Lady Bauhinia was gasping for air while lying in a corner, her posture reminiscent of a limp ragdoll.
She tried to chew on an unidentified black substance, and although it tasted terrible, she felt lucky to have something to eat at all.
Enduring the strange taste in her mouth, Lady Bauhinia glanced at Heel.
With a deep sigh, she said, “My dear Heel, I wonder when your father will come to rescue us…”
“Hmm…”
Heel looked at Lady Bauhinia helplessly and replied, “How would I know? We don’t even know where we are right now. How could my father possibly know where we are…?”
Suddenly, Black Rose spoke up, “Come to think of it, we’ve been locked up here for more than a month, right?”
She continued, “For all we know, we might just die… no! Get sick and die in this godforsaken place!”
“Tsk, tsk, tsk!”
Lady Bauhinia gave Black Rose a death stare and grumbled, “Shut up with your doom and gloom! I still have lots of things to take care of at the moment, and I can’t die in this godforsaken place!”
“How can you say that? Is it possible that you think someone will come to save us?”
Black Rose, lying on the damp, dark ground like a dead fish, stared at Lady Bauhinia with a sullied face.
“Who knows!”
Heel grinned and said, “I’ve always been very lucky, and this time won’t be any exception!”
Black Rose sighed helplessly, “Forget it. Other than your damned father, who would come to…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Black Rose’s expression suddenly changed as if she had discovered something.
Because she was lying on her side facing Lady Bauhinia, one of her ears was pressed against the ground.
At this moment, the ground seemed to be transmitting the sound and vibrations of footsteps from afar.
Based on this frequency, it shouldn’t be the monsters from the Soaring Dragon Legion.
“What’s going on?”
Lady Bauhinia looked at Black Rose with puzzlement, noticing her unusual state.
Soon, Black Rose, who had some idea of what was happening, used her hands to push herself up and looked at Heel, saying, “It seems like your cheap, old dad has really come to save you…”
“What?”
Heel was stunned and immediately shook her head, “That’s impossible! He doesn’t even know where I am, and he must still be in the imperial capital.”
Before she could finish her sentence, the sound of chaotic footsteps and fighting came from the narrow, dark passage in the distance.
“He can’t really be coming, can he…?”
Heel stared in the direction of the noise, and instead of seeing her father, she saw a familiar face.
“Angelina?”
Heel stared blankly at the Valkyrie standing before her, and the muscular man at her side seemed very familiar as well.
Apart from Korf, a group of elite warriors clad in elaborate weapons and armor followed behind Angelina.
Perhaps Heel wouldn’t recognize them, but Lady Bauhinia and Black Rose were clearly more worldly and instantly recognized them as the long-lost Vide Royal Guard.
The old Vide Kingdom once relied on these bearded men to conquer one enemy after another.
Their massive round shields and throwable hand axes had always been the nightmare of the old Vide’s enemies.
Of course, although the Vide Royal Guards were formidable fighters, training them took considerable resources and money.
Not to mention their fine chainmail and round shields wider than a person, which were made of pure gold and silver.
Let alone the throwable hand axes each of them carried at their waists, as consumable weapons.
It seemed that Angelina had big ambitions, reviving such a terrifying military unit.
As the three members of the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce stared in disbelief, Angelina wiped the blood from her cheek with a smile. In one sweep of her spear, she shattered the wooden barrier between them.
Then, she extended her helping hand towards a stunned Lady Bauhinia.
“I came to rescue you, my allies!”
A faint smile graced Angelina’s face as Lady Bauhinia gazed at her enraptured.
