With a muffled sound, the hanging basket fell to the ground. WWw!QuAnBen-XIaoShuo!Com

After being carried out of the hanging basket by the fanatics, Lin Qi saw a small castle under the cliff. The area of this castle is not large, only about an acre of land at most, but the city wall outside the castle is very high and thick, and it is densely covered with various powerful war tools.

Bed crossbows, powerful crossbows, and even small magic crossbow machines, large groups of soldiers wearing soft armor stood on the castle, monitoring the movements in the prisons not far away with great vigilance. Lin Qi couldn't help but sigh. This thousand-meter-high cliff has eliminated the possibility of escape for these prisoners, so why bother setting up such a heavily guarded battle fort here

Are you still afraid that someone will snatch this hanging basket

Shaking his head, Lin Qi looked up. I couldn't see clearly at the top of the cliff just now, but I could see it clearly at the bottom of the cave. In the middle of the cave, there is a golden glow shining brightly. The light emitted is a little weaker than the real sun, and the temperature is also a little lower, but at least it can maintain people's normal daily life.

Lin Qi even saw a layer of green grass growing under his feet, which showed that the living conditions in this deep underground cave were good because of the existence of this golden light. With a heavy breath, Lin Qi found that the golden shackles on his body had faded a lot. Although he could not move yet, at least he could speak.

Smiling and looking at the fanatic believers beside him, Lin Qi smiled and said: "Not bad, the environment here is not bad!"

Several fanatics glanced at Lin Qi mockingly, and carried him away without saying a word. After walking for more than three miles, behind several rows of long low buildings, there was another cave dozens of meters high on the stone wall. There is also a group of fanatic believers wearing heavy armor stationed here. Then Lin Qi was simply handed over to the people here.

"The last abyss!"

Several tall fanatics picked up Lin Qi carelessly like a chicken and carried him into the cave.

Continuously moving forward along a downward corridor, there are metal doors with a thickness of about 1 meter installed in the corridor about every 100 meters along the way. Every time they arrive at the door, these fanatical believers must go through strict identity verification, and then the metal door opens extremely slowly.

Lin Qi calculated that it took nearly a quarter of an hour from the time these fanatical believers came to the door to the time they started to verify their identities, plus the metal door finally opened. A total of eight metal gates have been installed along the way. Two hours were wasted just opening the portal.

Lin Qi was a little stunned. There was a thousand-meter-high cliff above, and the prisoners were already very pitiful. How pitiful a prisoner must be to be imprisoned here? He couldn't help but look at the fanatic believers beside him curiously: "Is this the lowest level?"

The fanatical believer gave Lin Qi an indifferent look. He carried Lin Qi away without saying a word, and had no intention of answering Lin Qi's questions.

"Damn it!" Lin Qi groaned weakly.

Behind the eighth heavy metal door is an underground rift that is hundreds of meters wide and bottomless. There is only a chain bridge without guardrails on this rift valley. At this end of the chain bridge, dozens of strong men holding big axes were sitting lazily on the ground. It was obvious that once the police arrived, they would immediately chop up the chain and turn this rift valley into a chasm that no one could pass through. .

And next to these strong men. There were five hundred elite soldiers armed with sniper crossbows. They were sitting neatly on the ground, ready to react at any time. Lin Qi felt tired for them when he saw them like this. They have maintained such vigilance in this dark underground place for many years. Apart from these religious madmen, ordinary people would go crazy if they stayed here for only two months, right

When Lin Qi was being carried across the chain bridge. He glanced down subconsciously. …,

With his current eyesight, he could vaguely see countless sharp protrusions below. There were some mangled corpses hanging on the sharp protrusions that seemed to be natural or artificial. Obviously, someone once wanted to break through this. A chain bridge was ruthlessly knocked down into the abyss.

After crossing the chain bridge, walk through a short passage. The front suddenly becomes clear.

Like the previous underground cave, this is also a large cave, but this cave is much larger than the one above. The length and width of this cave are about twenty miles, and countless huge rock pillars firmly support the dome above.

These rock pillars shine with magical light. Obviously they have been reinforced by magic circles. Seeing these rock pillars, Lin Qi could roughly imagine that this cave was not originally such a large area. The reason why a cave that is twenty miles long and wide appears underground should be the result of manual excavation. However, if such a large cave is dug manually, the rock formations above may collapse at any time, so magic can only be used to hold up these stone pillars as support.

This also made Lin Qi think of a very scary thing - if the prisoners in this cave want to riot, the church only needs to detonate the magic arrays on these rock pillars at the same time, and all the prisoners here will die, who cares? Being trapped under thousands of meters of rock formations can only lead to death.

The fanatics carried Lin Qi forward along the overpass dug into the stone wall at the edge of the cave, and Lin Qi was able to get a full view of the cave.

Different from the cave above, the cave above is strictly managed. Except for a team of jailers stationed in this cave, there are no fences installed in the stone cave on the stone wall. The buildings in the cave are also one in the east and one in the west. It is a mess of some race. There are all kinds of styles.

Lin Qi even saw a dozen rock titans opening a large stone cave in the corner of the cave. They were sitting there bored and playing with catching lice. But right next to those rock titans, a strong man with black fur was getting up from a woman with an excellent figure and beautiful appearance but a fox tail. The panting man's legs were trembling, but he was extremely He flatteringly took what looked like black bread from the beautiful woman's hand.

Lin Qi was dumbfounded. It seemed that the beauty from the Fox tribe used a piece of black bread to prostitute this strong man

Before Lin Qi could figure out the key to this, a hoarse howl suddenly came from a small stone house under the overpass. A skinny old man in black clothes staggered out of the stone house and raised his hands to Lin Qi. The fanatic believers around Qi shouted.

"I'm not a heretic, I'm not! I'm not one of those damn necromancers, I'm a doctor! A doctor with pursuits!"

"I tell you, what I am doing is not murder, I am removing a lesion on that poor patient! His small section of intestine is rotten and must be removed to heal! You ignorant, ignorant pigs, I bless you The intestines of all the bastards below you, the Pope, are rotten!"

Several jailors wearing soft armor ran over. They raised their long sticks and beat the old man head and face.

"Bang, bang, bang, bang," these jailers were very cruel. The old man was knocked to the ground in two or two blows, groaning and foaming at the mouth, and was carried into the stone house.

Lin Qi sighed and let the fanatics carry him forward.

He looked at the sky. The treatment in this cave was not as good as above. The top of the cave here was only inlaid with dozens of faint golden lights, which looked similar to the stars at night. The light here is also very dim. If it weren't for Lin Qi's excellent eyesight, ordinary people wouldn't be able to see very far here.

The jailers randomly inserted some torches here, but there were not many torches, and it was impossible to light up such a large cave. …,

Lin Qi was still being led forward, and Lin Qi's heart couldn't help but sink. If this was not the deepest layer of the black abyss, then where would he be sent? This place is about three thousand meters deep underground. Is it possible that they really want to throw themselves into the legendary hell

At the end of the cave, through a long downward passage equipped with more than a dozen heavy metal doors, there is a cave with an area of only a few miles in front. But this cave was divided into two sections by a city wall. The side near the corridor was completely transformed into a fortress with strong defense. Lin Qi observed carefully and found that at least 10,000 elite warriors were stationed here!

Lin Qi couldn't help but curse in his stomach, stationing 10,000 elite soldiers thousands of meters deep underground. Only the church can do this kind of thing, right? Looking at the defensive equipment on the city wall, Lin Qi was speechless again. The city defenses of the imperial capital Borelli are not as good as here, and all the equipment here are powered by magic energy. Lin Qi even suspected that a legendary dragon could be killed here with just one volley.

After being roughly thrown out of the city wall, Lin Qi was dragged through the barren wasteland outside. Two miles away, on the stone wall facing the city wall, there was a dark stone cave nearly a hundred meters high. , the strong wind is constantly pouring out with cold and hot air.

It was very strange that the wind here brought not only the biting cold air, but also the heat that made people sweat. Lin Qi could not imagine what was going on under this cave.

Several fanatical believers dragged Lin Qi into the cave and walked forward for more than a hundred meters. There was a huge cave opening vertically downwards.

The fanatical believers shouted in unison: "Repent, sinner, and may the glory of God save your soul!"

Then a fanatic believer roughly tore off Lin Qi's magic soft armor and stuffed it into his pocket triumphantly: "Sinner, you don't need this thing in this dark abyss of despair. I saved him." Your life, you have to remember this, this magic soft armor will kill you!"

After laughing a few times, several fanatics looked at each other, and then Lin Qi was thrown down, and the golden shackles on his body quietly disintegrated at this time. Lin Qi danced and flew downwards, but he couldn't fly and there was nothing around to grab onto.

Fortunately, there was a strong wind blowing continuously from below. This mixed hot and cold wind was so strong that Lin Qi's body was held up by the strong wind, but he slowly floated down instead of falling directly. Lin Qi calculated that the speed of his fall was about the same as usual, and it should be impossible for him to fall to his death.

After falling downward for about five minutes, Lin Qi fell into a body of scalding hot water. Lin Qi howled miserably when she was burned, and then a huge arm stretched out and lifted Lin Qi out of the water.

"Oh? Is there someone new here?" (To be continued...)
