Chapter 262 Despair
Chapter 262 Despair
The Red Dragon King’s residence, the prison cell.
A young girl was escorted into the cell by two soldiers.
The girl looked around and found that many civilians from Dragon City were imprisoned here.
With a clang, the cell door closed.
Angelica sat in the corner, hugging her legs tightly, her eyes full of resentment.
She quietly followed Sylph out of the city, intending to rescue Miss together.
Unexpectedly, after finally finding the rebel base, he was captured on the spot before he even saw Miss.
Angelique, who was only at the rank of Level 2 in strength, was no match for the numerous rebels.
Even if she found out that her team only had the captain who was in the top three, she still wouldn't be able to defeat him.
There was not even a chance to escape.
"I'm sorry, teacher. I'm sorry, Lady Sylph. Angelique is an idiot and can't help at all..."
"I was even arrested..."
"Teacher, are you okay? Lady Sylph should be able to save you..."
Just as Angelique was feeling sad, a greeting came from the cell next door.
"Little girl, are you okay?"
Angelique wiped her tears and found that the person living next door to her was a woman of considerable age.
"Auntie, I'm fine..."
The woman sighed, "Don't be afraid, little girl. Being caught here is not a bad thing. At least you can live a few more days."
Angelique observed the people in the surrounding cells again and found that they were basically all women.
"Why, there are no men here?"
The woman who lives next door had a sad expression on her face. "Because strong men will be killed if they don't obey the Red Dragon King, and will join the army if they obey, so there are only women left here."
Angelique clenched her fists, anger rising in her heart, "Too cruel!"
The women in the other cells seemed to have cried all their tears out, with only bitter expressions on their faces.
"Their cruelty goes far beyond this."
Angelique frowned, "What else did they do?"
The women looked at each other, not wanting to tell what everyone in the cell knew.
They didn't want to see this new young girl fall into despair so quickly.
Angelique became more and more anxious as she watched, "What else did they do?"
The woman in the next room cried, "They don't treat us as their own people at all. They treat us as... as..."
The woman was heartbroken, but she couldn't utter the last few words.
Angelique frowned and gripped the iron bars with both hands.
"As what?"
The one who answered her was not the woman in the next cell or the woman in any other cell.
But it was another familiar voice.
"Sacrifice."
Angelique looked towards the source of the sound, and at the entrance of the cell, a charming woman with a graceful figure walked in.
"Anyone who is captured here will become a sacrifice, a living sacrifice to Lord Dragon God."
"Beaute!" Angelique recognized her old boss at a glance.
"I heard that they captured a guard of the Dragon King, a girl of Class II. I guessed it was you."
Beatrice slowly approached and came to the outside of Angelique's cell.
"My Angelica, you are such a fool. You dare to break into Lord Reid's residence alone."
"Beaute, what did you mean by that? What about a living sacrifice?"
Beatrice smiled brightly, "It means exactly what it says. All these useless people must be delivered to Lord Dragon God on time."
Angelique still couldn't figure it out. The Dragon God should only exist in legends, and there was no precedent in Dragon City of using living people to sacrifice to the Dragon God.
Beatrice knew her old subordinate very well and knew that she had a poor comprehension ability, so she explained it again in detail.
"To put it bluntly, we need to throw them into the extremely icy land on time and sacrifice them to Lord Dragon God. Do you understand?"
Angelique was frightened by the words "extremely cold land" and her face turned pale. She took several steps back unconsciously and leaned against the wall.
In this extremely icy place, when adults in Dragon City want to scare children, they will never move out of this uninhabited area.
It can be seen how terrifying this place is.
If you accidentally enter an extremely icy place, it is almost equivalent to death.
Even the Five-Armored Dragon King would be a little afraid.
Not to mention these civilian women who have little fighting power.
If you are sent to an extremely icy place, you won’t survive more than a day before being corroded by the pitch-black cold and turned into dust.
"Don't you feel pain when you do these things?" Angelique asked weakly.
Beatrix sneered, "When Lord Red was forced into the extremely cold land by Sylph, did that bitch ever feel heartbroken?
If Lord Dragon God had not chosen Lord Reid to protect the army, none of them would have been able to walk out alive.
Why not use these civilians who were supposed to die to repay Lord Dragon God now?"
"Crazy, you are really crazy!" Angelica was very excited.
Such a cruel thing dealt a heavy blow to her young heart.
"If Lady Sylph knew about this, she would never let you go!"
Beatrix showed a disdainful smile on her face, crossed her arms across her chest, and acted superior.
"Humph, Sylph can barely protect herself now, how could she have the chance to know about this?"
Angelique looked suspicious, "What do you mean?"
Beatrice smiled and said, “It’s still literal, that human man was killed by Lord Red.
Sylph burned her life and was seriously injured, and is now fleeing with the corpse in her arms.
Lord Reed has already led his men to chase her. She won't live long."
Everyone in the cell exclaimed and felt sorry for Sylph.
"Even Lady Sylph..."
"It's over. The dragon race is completely finished."
"Damn Red Dragon King!"
This news was like a bolt from the blue, completely crushing Angelique.
Her lively eyes became empty, dull and lifeless.
Her legs went weak and she collapsed to the ground.
"Teacher, Lady Sylph..."
Seeing Angelique's decline, Beatrice was very happy.
"Just be a good sacrifice. Who should be sacrificed tonight? It seems to be the elder sister next door."
Beatrix's words startled the woman and she began to tremble uncontrollably.
Angelique opened her mouth slightly and called out to Beatrix.
"Let me go, let me take her place tonight."
Beatrice narrowed her eyes and raised the corners of her mouth, "Are you so eager to die?"
Angelique shook her head, "It doesn't matter."
Beatrix snorted coldly, "If you are really anxious to keep those two company, I can help you now."
Angelique raised her head mechanically and looked at Beatrice.
There was no desire for life in his eyes.
"Open the door."
