Alchemy Era

Chapter 13 deserves

There is no concept of time in the underground water cell.

Selastin Leo doesn't know how long they have been in the silent, dark and cold water cell.

The dark part of the water prison is connected to the waterway of the flowing garden. The sound of water is like a killing note, getting colder and colder. The children playing above their heads may one day know that the sea that brings them joy and coolness can also trap people and torture them.

The ups and downs of the sea surrounding them are irregular. Is it the second day now? It should be...but maybe it's the third day? He doesn't know that he hasn't closed his eyes. He thought his eyes must be full of blood.

There is no place to sit in the water prison, let alone expect to lie down well. He clung to the wet skating wall and hugged Rosie tightly. He could feel each other's exquisite and beautiful body, but their bodies were not hot at all, and they were like ice cubes. Their bodies have long been eroded by the sea, completely unconscious, and even difficult to move.

For good, they can still move their mouths. Today seems to be a full moon night. He opened his mouth in the dark.

"It doesn't matter when it is." The weak voice of the female mage came. It has nothing to do with me that they are all dead.

"Hmm." He nodded gently, and his cheeks were close to his cheeks. You can do what you want. It's better to pour fire oil into the waterway of the flowing palace and burn it all into ashes.

She smiled weakly, "We have talked about this topic several times. Let me tell you, 'the gem bay should live up to its name and turn all the sea into gems.'"

He took her words, "Then put all the gems into your pocket."

She leaned weakly on Leo's shoulder and whispered, "Isn't that good?"

"Hmm." He buried his head in the female mage's long wet hair. They lost their voice again and didn't know what to say. They have almost finished talking about all the topics and still haven't waited for the dawn. The alchemist was silent for a while and couldn't help thinking of others. What do you think they are doing now?" Will you be busy running around for them and pleading with others?

"Do you want to talk about the moon dance?" She snorted dissatisfiedly and bit him with her teeth, "It's the moon dance again... Forget it." She said. I'm cold." The female mage trembled in his arms and leaned close to him, as if to integrate with him. I told you that I hate water, especially seawater.

But they can't do anything about it. If I can play tricks, I will definitely disappear the annoying sea.

"Don't laugh." Rosie whispered, "You're not a wizard." She paused and said, "I just want you to fill this place with black monkeys and see if they will be watered."

Hunger swept over, and fatigue gradually increased. Their bodies are approaching the limit. They soon stopped talking and hugged each other, motionless like a stone sculpture. The sea rose and receded. The tide falls five times a day and rises seven times a day? Leo can't count. Anyway, day after day, no one came. They seem to have been forgotten.

The cold sea finally defeated the female mage. Rosie had a high fever, hot all over, confused, and even began to talk nonsense. If I die, will you miss me?" This is what she sometimes says when she is awake.

"I will, I will." He told her, "You'll be fine."

"What if...what if?"

"I will turn the thousand lake city-state into a burning hell!" He answered firmly.

She pulled out an ugly smile and showed a sick flush on her face. Then I will wait for them in hell."

"You can only stand with me and listen to their howling!" He shouted loudly and begged for someone to show up, thinking that even if he heard the noise of the pigeon and the jailer's broken voice, no one seemed to hear his call for help until his hoarse voice.

"Stop screaming, don't beg them. They won't come. They just want us to die here."

Can't they judge us openly and burn us alive? They can only secretly use insidious means to make us die of thirst, starve to death, and finally want to retreat from the matter? But is it still useful to think about these now? Rosie is weaker than moment, but he is helpless. They are cold, hungry and extremely thirsty. Several times, Luo Xi almost poured the sea water into her stomach in a daze, but fortunately, it was found by Li Ou in time. That will only make them die faster.

"Hasn't anyone come yet?" She seemed to have a flame burning, but her body was shivering.

Li Ou licked his cracked lips and shook his head silently.

"It's good to die. It's good to die." Rosie couldn't help repeating and soon stopped talking.

Liu has no comfort. They all know that comfort is like a rainbow in the sky, which can't be seen or touched.

I don't know how long it took, but he heard the sound of the iron bolt in half a dream. This is the most pleasant voice he has heard in so many years. Who?" He hissed. Although the voice is stiff and hoarse, at least he can speak. Leo completely lost the concept of time. How long has it been? Luo Xi in her arms moved and barely opened her eyes. She is too weak to speak of. Who?" He shouted again, trying to speak louder.

The light of the torch overflows from the open door, and the dim yellow light is still dazzling to them. Who is it?" Rosie asked weakly. He narrowed his eyes and saw a dark shadow slowly coming towards him.

Who is it? Speak." He shouted hoarsely with a pain in his throat.

The firelight got closer and closer, and finally the shadow stopped in front of the prison door. His position was higher than those in the pool, so Leo had to raise his head. The torch was held in front of the man, and the beating firelight lit up the man's gloomy face. The worst thing was finally proved.

"It's you." Leo tried to open his tired eyes.

"Who is here?" Rosie's voice was almost illusory.

He whispered in her ear, "It's Baron Allenbert."

"Who?" She was so confused that she couldn't remember that she had fought with it.

Li Ou looked up at each other, "Are you alone?"

"Fortunately, I'm the only one." He sneered and said, "Otherwise, it's time to tie you to the stake now."

He doesn't know how to interface. After a while of silence, "I want water." He said.

The person who came really came with a water bag. The heavy cow stomach bag was thrown in through the crack of the iron fence, and he didn't have time to reach out. With a splash, the water bag fell into the pool and sank to the bottom.

"Hor up." He gently told the female mage.

"No, no." She shook her head and took his hand and refused to let go. "He's watching your joke."

That's better than dying of thirst. He held Rosie with one hand, squatted down slowly, and groped in the pool with his right hand. His upper body was soaked by the sea again. He trembled and finally found the water bag. However, he had little strength left. He tried several times before pulling out the cork. A pungent smell came to my nose.

"Don't worry, it's not poison."

He took a small sip. Sticky and disgusting. There was a burst of ups and down in his stomach, and sour water came out. He bowed his waist and couldn't help vomiting. It took a while for him to recover. It's blood." He tasted it.

"That's right, it's blood." The baron did not hide it. Mix the blood of wine... If you don't drink it, just throw it away."

"Why don't you drink?"

He suddenly took a big mouthful and forced himself to swallow it. Another burst of distress poured in. He grabbed his throat and didn't let go of his neck until the feeling of vomiting dissipated. After a struggle, he almost lost all his strength and gasped close to Rosie.

"Don't forget the beautiful mage. She is dying."

"Don't feed me, I don't want it." She shook her head hard. This is an insult."

Of course I know. But... "If you don't drink, you will die!" He took a fierce breath, then directly blocked her mouth and rudely opened her teeth. Her lips were dry and constantly resisting, her weak hands slapped and scratched on his body, and her teeth even broke his mouth.

Nauseous blood flows between their mouths and tongues, and the feeling of vomiting comes again. Li Ou held his breath and passed all the blood in her mouth despite her struggle, and her lips held each other tightly against each other. Then, he heard her swallowing. He moved his mouth, and Rosie coughed repeatedly, with tears in her eyes.

"Don't spit it out, Rosie." He kept asking, "Please, don't throw up."

Rosie didn't spit it out, and there was a flame of hatred in her eyes.

"It's wonderful." The baron clapped his hands, "But it's only been four days. You are about to die. Even dirty mice and toad blood are regarded as treasures.

Li Ou wiped his mouth and said, "Have you seen enough?" He said, "Let's get out."

"Don't dream. You can only die like this." The baron said, "This way of death is still cheap for you."

"Let's go out." He repeated, "We are envoys, not criminals who can be imprisoned with just your words." The baron was unmoved and had to give in to the other party. You won." He said, "But at least, please let Rosie get out of here and go to any random cell above." The baron didn't say a word, and he just rushed up angrily. Damn it, let her get out of here! She has a fever! Let the old girl come to treat her!"

"You killed people, the evidence is conclusive, wizards. One life is worth one life. I won't be soft-hearted."

"We didn't kill anyone."

"You killed my son." The baron suddenly roared, "You killed my son! My son Edward! You killed him with magic! And let my wife turn her into a... monster!" As he shouted, he pulled the iron fence crazily, and the water prison echoed with a violent sound.

"This is impossible." Li Ou firmly believes in himself. We didn't make any mistakes."

"Do you think I'm lying to you? Wizard? Will I curse my wife and children to deceive you? He smiled coldly and his eyes were red. Is it the light of fire or the hatred like blood? Open your eyes and look around. If it weren't for you, how could it be your turn to enjoy the sea bath here?

"It's not us..."

"...Liu." Rosie suddenly muttered in his arms, "There must be something wrong with my spell. It must be like this... I failed again, and I failed again. Leo, I failed again. She cried helplessly and shed tears like pearls. What has happened to her that made her so weak and helpless to blame herself?

But at this time, he could not explore, and the gloomy voice of Baron Allenbert destroyed all his thoughts. He began to miss the silent darkness.

"Look, your companions have admitted it." The baron sneered coldly, "So, you just wait to die. But I will bring you food and fresh water." Dirty food and dirty rat blood?" Until you are judged... However, you'd better sincerely pray for the gods you don't believe in so that Miss Mage can still see the sun.

Li Ou hugged the crying Rosie tightly. She has been exhausted and almost fainted. He looked at the weak and helpless female mage in his arms and made a poisonous oath, "If she dies, I promise! I promise that all these black monkeys will be buried with her!"

"It must be you who will die, wizards." The baron also told him, "You white-skinned devils will die without burial and bury my son!"

Should he beg for mercy and plead with them? Saying it's not his fault, is he willing to be judged? This is absolutely impossible. In the end, he only told the other party two words--

He said, "You deserve it!" He stared coldly at Baron Allenbert, and then repeated again, this time his words were extremely clear, cold and gloating. You deserve it."

"Shut up! Wizard!" Baron Allenbert slammed the iron gate angrily. But he couldn't break in. He beat him hard and stabbed him with a sword. The whole water cell echoed with the crazy laughter of the alchemist, and a clear sentence "deserved".
