Chapter 27: It's Better Than Hell

Tolly walked up to the man with the crown, nudged his chin with his toes, and tilted his head to one side. The wound on his neck had already declared his death.

The woman came over and confirmed once again that the man with the crown was dead.

The three of them breathed a long sigh of relief and looked at each other.

The woman smiled at Duan Xu, her eyeliner curved into a crescent moon, and her intimidating eyes turned into the charming eyes of a girl. Is it gratitude or admiration? She didn't say it, but Duan Xu could understand it.

Tuoli and the woman exchanged a few words, which were not in a language Duan Xu could understand. He was a little embarrassed and had to smile with them.

Tuo Li shouted to the door, and a team of people came in, carried the Crown Man's body out of the lobby, and then tidied up the damaged facilities. Their movements were quick and well-trained.

Those people came back again. The people who had just seen fighting and running away were now back where the fighting had just taken place.

Everyone looked at each other with doubts on their faces, but no one dared to speak.

They knew that their former master, the crown man, was dead, and the noble man sitting in the top position was dead.

That position has a new owner, and now, he sits in that position.

Tuoli sat down, put on the crown, and the head of his head exuded the halo of the protagonist, which is the halo unique to the person sitting in the chief position.

The woman held the golden crown on her head with her hands and stood on his right side. Her expression was a bit complicated, and the joy of victory had long since disappeared.

Saluting and chanting a set of neat movements makes the ceremony more solemn and serious.

Dragging his arms out in a hug, those people stood up, still shouting loudly.

In the corner, in an inconspicuous place, Duan Xu was alone, quietly watching everything in front of him.

He knew this was not a dream, but it was more magical than a dream. It was like watching a group of gods fighting or celebrating, and he got involved in it without knowing it.

He already understood everything before him, but he couldn't understand what they were doing and why.

At the end of the ceremony, people exited the hall, leaving Tuoli and the golden-crowned woman behind.

Tuoli waved, and Duan Xu walked over. Tuoli had not yet recovered from the crowd's worship, and he was full of excitement.

"This is Duan Xu. Thanks to his help, I can return to the royal city and regain the throne."

Tuoli introduced Duan Xu to the woman, and then said to Duan Xu:

"This is my sister, my biological sister, the chief priest of the kingdom, her name is Napar. You are my friend, a distinguished guest of our kingdom, and she is also your sister."

"How can you be so embarrassed...I didn't expect you to be the king..."

Duan Xu had been shocked by such a scene for a long time. He had not yet recovered and was a little incoherent. It could also be said that his Spanish was not that proficient.

While speaking, she stretched out her hand to shake Napar's hand. But she didn't reach out. They didn't have such a custom. She put her hands on her chest, with a serious expression and a little bit of ridicule in her eyes, and bent towards Duan Xu.

Yao. Duan Xu also replied, but the other party couldn't hold it back and laughed.

"We are a small country and we don't need too many rules. Everyone is too tired today. Napar will help Duan Xu make arrangements."

Tuoli said, stood up and took the lead to leave the lobby.

Napar took Duan Xu to a room, turned around and said something to the entourage around him. Then he said to Duan Xu in Spanish:

"Mr. Duan, just stay here for some time and tell them if you need anything."

After speaking, he smiled and left with his entourage, leaving two people at the door.

The space is not too big. There are tables and sleeping beds, all of which are made of stones, or look like stones.

In less than a cigarette, someone brought food and water. It was very rich. The staple food was like bread, but it didn't taste like bread. There were large pieces of roasted chicken, potatoes, vegetables like broccoli, and spherical fruits.

.

Needless to say, normal people have never eaten or seen most of the food. The drinking water has a slightly alkaline taste and is a bit astringent. It is not bad to drink a few more sips. It may be natural mineral water.

After eating, Duan Xu carefully observed his surroundings.

The walls are made of stone, and there are no lights or electrical appliances, but the stone can shine or reflect light, and the light makes people very happy.

Although it is an underground city, I don't feel depressed here, and the temperature is just right. The air is very fresh, unlike most caves that are full of mold and rot.

After his curiosity passed, Duan Xu sat down and prepared to look at his cell phone.

I can't see anything, there is no 6g signal, and naturally there are no 5g and 4g signals.

I used wifi and asked the waiters at the door, but they didn't understand Spanish.

Duan Xu took out his mobile phone and gestured at the waiters. The waiters stared at Duan Xu with wide eyes, as if they were looking at monkeys.

Is it so difficult to ask for the wifi password?

Yes, it is that difficult. Maybe they have never seen a mobile phone and live in an underground city with no signal, so naturally they cannot use a mobile phone.

The time when I first met Tuoli, I still vividly remember communicating in sign language. Do I have to learn a language all over again?

Duan Xu was about to go crazy and shouted loudly, "This is hell."

What he said is not correct. This is not hell, but it is deeper than the hell the ancients said.

The phone showed that it was now 7:23 pm in Aolai Country time, and there was still one bar of battery left.

So far, no charging cable and no power socket to be found.

Duan Xu has gone crazy this time. I won't do it if I'm asked to be the king in a ghost place like this.

The waiter outside the door watched Duan Xu shouting alone in the room, and no one dared to come in.

I didn't know what kind of help he needed. I just silently watched him.

If he stayed there for just one more second, he would collapse because he was already suffering from claustrophobia and he would have to leave this place. At least go for a walk.

As soon as he arrived at the door, he encountered another difficulty. Duan Xu didn't know where he was, let alone where he was going. There were three corridors outside the door, and there were many doors on both sides of the corridor.

You're already lost before you even go out. Would you still dare to go out?

Duan Xu gestured for a long time, hoping that the waiter would take him out for a walk. As long as he left this ghost place, he would accept it wherever he went.

It seems that the waiter’s understanding is not high, and that’s right. If his understanding is high, will he still be a waiter?

After gesticulating for a long time, they must have figured it out. The two of them took Duan Xu out of the cage-like room one after the other.

After turning left and right, they came to a hall, similar to the one at the beginning.

After passing through the hall and passing through several doors, my eyes suddenly opened up.

The space here is larger, not as big as an underground castle. Because you can't see the distant scenery, the people in the distance are only as big as your fingers.

Many strangely shaped stone pillars connect from the bottom to the top of the cave.

The appearance of the stone pillars is very natural. They are neither regular geometric shapes cast by cement nor pitted shapes carved by hand. They are more like natural growth, with smooth lines and beautiful shapes.

The waiter led Duan Xu to a giant ring. The ring was very large, with many concentric circles, and the terrain became lower as you went inward. Needless to say, everyone understood that this was an arena.

It probably took them ten minutes to reach the other side of the ring.

The text message walked around the largest circle again. Because he found that every step he took seemed to have a different feeling. The vibrations under his feet were fed back to his body differently every time.

Each step has its own rhythm. No one knows the reason, but it just feels good. Duan Xu continues to walk slowly until he completes a circle.

The light was slowly dimming, and it felt darker than when we came here. Duan Xu instinctively thought that it was going to be dark, but there was no sky here.

The waiter took Duan Xu back along the way he came.
