"Why do I have the urge to kill him, even though he and Lục Viễn Thân are both human?"
Accompanying the unfamiliar voice.
Inside the cave.
A creature that should have been transparent began to gradually materialize.
From light to dark.
Until finally, Reid, wielding twin blades, abruptly appeared before Dix's group.
No.
It wasn't just Reid who appeared first among the heretics.
Rey, Guros, and others.
The rest of the relatively strong existences among the heretics emerged one by one.
In the end.
All the heretics who had been recruited by Lục Viễn Thân appeared almost simultaneously before Dix and the others.
Invisibility potion.
A tool provided by Lục Viễn Thân to the heretics.
One drop can make a person invisible for a period of time.
"What a bountiful harvest, don't you think?" Looking at the large group of heretics, Dix pressed the tip of the gun against the neck of the songbird girl again, and said with a cruel expression.
"Release her, and we can let you leave here safely."
Rey stared at Dix coldly, tightening her claws, and said.
"Safely!?"
"Haha!! Listen, friends, she actually said to let us leave safely!!?"
"Does she not understand the importance of the situation?"
Bang.
The barrel of the gun struck the songbird girl, making a muffled sound.
Dix continued in a provocative tone: "I'll repeat myself one more time, hand over the limited-time item that can make people disappear, and surrender obediently, and I can spare your companion!"
"Or is your so-called unity among the different species just a facade?"
Putting the gunpoint back on the songbird's neck, Dix said with interest.
Although an unexpected situation occurred, the strength of this group of different species seemed to be somewhat beyond imagination.
But it doesn't matter.
In Dix's view, this is precisely where they are valuable.
Dix believed that as long as he completed this deal, he wouldn't have to worry about funds for a long time.
Speaking of which, the Hestia Familia is really his lucky star.
If they hadn't taken the dragon girl away, perhaps he wouldn't have adopted the suggestion made by Gran, and there wouldn't be such a harvest as now.
Hestia Familia, what great people.
Dix silently gave Hestia a thumbs up.
"Is that so? Perhaps you can take a look at what you're hitting..."
With his twin swords drooping, Reid looked at Dix playfully with his eyes half-closed.
"What else could it be, isn't this your songbird partner... How could it be!!" Turning his head, squinting, Dix's pupils suddenly widened, and intense anger began to brew in his chest.
Since when.
The songbird girl, who had been personally tied to the stone pillar by him, had turned into an object similar to a silicone balloon.
No wonder she didn't scream when he hit her abdomen just now!
So she had already been rescued?
But.
When did this happen!!
He had clearly been focusing part of his attention on this songbird.
Even if there were members of the other side who were invisible, they shouldn't have been able to take this songbird away without making any noise!
Even the rope he tied her to the stone pillar with, in his opinion, had absolutely not been touched.
What exactly happened?
Could it be that, in addition to the limited-time item that can make people invisible, this group of heretics also has another item that can save people?
What good luck.
Dix quickly confirmed his inner thoughts.
Because from his perspective, even Ottar or even Alfia would absolutely not be able to rescue the songbird without alarming him.
This is his confidence.
Therefore, he believed that in addition to the invisibility item, the other party must have hidden another item.
The items that many adventurers can't get even if they beg for them are easily obtained by the different species, this world is indeed unfair...
Touching the goggles on his face, Dix remembered the curse passed down from generation to generation in his family, the Daedalus family.
Dix's ancestor, Daedalus, was a madman.
In order to create a building comparable to the dungeon, he drew up the architectural drawings that shocked the gods at the time, Cnosos.
Also known as the artificial labyrinth.
But Daedalus knew that with his own strength and lifespan alone, he would never be able to complete this grand goal.
So, the obsessed man placed a curse on his descendants.
Whether they wanted to or not, as long as they were his descendants, then their bloodline would urge them to complete the goal of building the artificial labyrinth Cnosos.
Don't want to work?
Sorry! Unless you can endure the boiling of your blood day and night, and the [start work] signals and pain constantly coming from your brain,
Otherwise, you'd better do your job obediently.
And so.
Generation after generation, with the extension of Daedalus's bloodline, the artificial labyrinth Cnosos was gradually completed.
Now, more than a thousand years have passed.
A small half of this grand building has been completed.
As long as Daedalus's bloodline continues to flow, I believe that in another thousand years, the artificial labyrinth will be completed sooner or later.
But the next thousand years.
Just thinking about it makes people feel extremely long and desperate...
"Heh, the world is really unfair, why? They are just lowly monsters, but they have not only gained the ability to communicate with ordinary people, but also obtained expensive items."
"And I, I have to suffer from the curse day and night, even if I have a slight idea of deviating from my ancestors, intense pain will sweep my brain!!"
"So..."
"Why is this!!! Ah!!?"
As if venting, and as if questioning the injustice of the world.
Boom!
Along with the stone pillar and the silicone balloon, they were blown up with one shot.
Dix roared at the many heretics.
"I don't know what you've been through, and I don't want to know. Everything you've experienced is not a reason for you to randomly kidnap and abuse our companions."
Holding his twin swords crossed in front of his chest, his right leg slightly back to form a bow stance.
Whoosh!
In the next second.
Reid directly rushed towards Dix and slashed at his neck.
Killing intent spread throughout the cave.
Clang.
Using the spear in his hand to block Reid's incoming twin swords, Dix jumped to the side with the help of the force, tore off the goggles he had been wearing on his eyes, and threw them on the ground casually.
"Although I really want to play with you, but... my time is very precious..."
"I may lose some goods, but, there's no way around it."
"Its name is Phobos Daedalus..."
His expression became relaxed.
Opening his hands and raising the spear above his head, black and red magic power began to spread from the tip of the spear, like winding ribbons, quickly towards the weaker heretics in the cave.
"Come on, let me see, are you monsters willing to attack your former companions!"
