The Labyrinth Kingdom

Chaptre 43. The Bandit Headquarters (end)

As they were conversing, they had reached their destination.one of the goblins guarding the place approached Raluk.

"welcome chief of the tribe"

"good job, what about the people inside?"

"that's... Etto... "

"hmm... What's wrong? Why are you quiet?"

".... Etto... In deep... E... "

Raluk noticed the strange behavior of his men, he seemed to want to say something, but could not. Sometimes he would also glance towards Amara.

Raluk, who was beginning to realize the situation, dragged the goblin away from the group and spoke to him with four eyes in the distance.

"..... ?"

" ? "

"......"

Amara and the others looked confused because of that, but since it seemed like Raluk was discussing something important, they just needed to wait for information from Raluk.

Amara began to observe the surrounding area.In addition to the building, other buildings have been destroyed. He could also see the goblins transporting the corpses of the bandits, they would probably make it as a food reserve.

At first he felt bad about this, but after some time passed. He started to ignore it, as long as they used the corpses of the enemies as food, he did not care much.

Of course the bodies had to be from men, Amara would have opposed it if it was from the corpses of innocent children and girls.

While he was observing the surrounding area, in the distance he could see a collection of dust clouds moving towards him.

'what's that? '

Amara continued to observe the dust cloud, after a while she could see who created it.

Bodil was galloping towards him, he was destroying whatever was blocking his path.

"sorry to keep you waiting, did I miss something? " said Bodil while smiling brightly

"it's not you I'm waiting for and we just wanted to do the last mission, you came at the right time"

"ohh, Bodil you've come" said Raluk

"Yes, then, what else are we waiting for? Let's finish this mission quickly, then go home"

"Ahhhhh... Before that, I suggest that both times do not need to come. The situation is too chaotic inside, so let us take care of it"

"Ehh... Whatchu mean? It's just a simple rescue mission, we just need to haul the girls out right? what's so hard about that?"

"you don't have to worry, we're not weak women. After all, Bodil's muscles will cry if you find them weak. Look, it's starting to wrinkle in some places"

"huh... Whatchu mean? My muscles remained tight as usual, it was impossible that it would wrinkle. Might as well... "

"look, you admit it yourself"

"since when I did it"

"Must."

"I didn't.... "

"huh... Stop arguing, if you still want to come in, I'll remind you. What's in there, may be worse than what you think. So prepare yourself.

Guys, guide us inside "said Raluk

"Yes sir... "

"Yess sir's... "

Guided by his men, Raluk and the others begin to enter the building. There was nothing in the room, it was just an empty space that might be used as a warehouse to store the loot.

The goblin, who served as a guide, continued to move forward and opened one of the wooden boards in the corner of the room. Behind the wooden board, there was a secret door that led down.

The air in the hallway is also very stuffy, you're gonna have a hard time breathing down here. This was very different from in the labyrinth, even though they already had the experience of living underground, they still felt difficulties.

After descending roughly about 20m down, they began to see a light at the end of the hallway.

When they arrived at the end of the hall, they found a basement that was only as large as the cheapest lodging room in the city of Bacau. The room was very small and narrow, five people were enough to fill the room.

Amara and Bodil reflexively closed his nose due to the terrible smell of the room. On the other hand, Raluk and the other goblins did not mind and continued walking forward.

When the two women looked into the dungeon, they frowned.

there were about 20 more women locked up in that cramped place, they were jostling with each other. Their bodies were filled with their own excrement, but no one cared about it.

The girls who were inside that room were already half dead. No, it's more accurate if you say that they're dying. Among them were also children, their condition was truly concerning.

to the two of them being furious at this, the cruel way they had done while killing the bandits some time ago, was not comparable to what the bandits had done to this woman.

Amara and Bodil were really very angry and hateful towards those bandits, if they could go back in time, they would definitely kill those bandits even more cruelly.

"Bring them all out. ” Raluk ordered his subordinates.

The goblins began to pull out the stretchers they were carrying and place the girls on top of them. They hauled the woman out of the basement one by one.

After they repeated this process several times, now all that remained in the room were Amara, Bodil and Raluk.

But…

"The children ...," muttered Amara involuntarily.

'Can they survive to the labyrinth?'

Their condition was so severe, the children could not even speak due to the pain they were suffering from.

'Were they beaten?'

Their faces were swollen and ugly. Their eyes were gouged out, and they also lost most of their teeth.

Not just the children, all the women in this room, experienced that cruelty.

Some women even lose their limbs.

This was done so that they would not take up much space in that narrow room.

Both their hands and feet were cut from their roots. If they did not stop the bleeding properly, it would be a miracle if they managed to survive.

“all women have been successfully transported out, we have completed the mission given by Mr. Alice. " The goblins report their work.

"good job... Prepare to return to the labyrinth" Raluk replied

"Yes sir... "

"……"

Perhaps due to still being shocked by what they had seen, Amara and Bodil could only fall silent even after hearing the reports from the goblin warriors.

they walked back to the surface without a word.

What the two were worried about right now was whether these girls could survive all the way to the labyrinth or not.

If they died halfway through, then their corpses would probably be used to make Corpse golems or become sacrificial materials to summon monsters.

On the other hand, they would also be food for ferocious beasts if they were left here. After all, they would not have a good ending.

“…. . Ah . "One of the girls groaned.

After hearing the little moans from the girl, the two regained their senses from her daydream

"fight... If you can survive to the Labyrinth, you can definitely be healed. ” Amara tries to encourage the dying girl.

"Really... Let alone healing your wounds, I believe master Alice will definitely be able to reconnect your severed hands and feet. After all we have also killed all the bandits who have cruelly locked you up, There is nothing you need to fear from now on" Bodil said in a cheerful voice, trying to ease the suffering of the girl

As Amara wondered whether the girl could hear his words or not. the girl slowly nodded her head, as if responding to the words of the two.
