Chapter 381: Chapter 395 Strange Demons
Hearing this, Lancelot’s heart stirred. As long as there was a passageway leading to the inside of the building, getting in wouldn’t be a problem. Although he couldn’t transform into a mist like little Yisa, as long as the inside of the building wasn’t completely dark, he could use Shadow Jump to teleport directly inside.
After listening for a while longer, the conversation between the Succubi had turned into mutual boasting about their delightful killing experiences and mocking a few Berserk Demon underlings. Lancelot silently backed away and began searching nearby for the sewer the Demons had mentioned earlier.
It took a bit of time to search for anomalies on the ground, but Lancelot eventually made a discovery. In a corner far from both entrances, there was an inconspicuous bulge. If he hadn’t known in advance about the existence of this sewer, he probably would have had a hard time noticing this anomaly.
Now that he had confirmed the sewer’s approximate location, the next step was to find where its exit lay. Lancelot found a secluded corner, sent a skeleton head to keep watch in the front, and then sat down cross-legged on the spot, regulating his breath and synchronizing with the surrounding nature’s spiritual energy, quickly entering a state of Spiritual Sight.
He easily found the hidden passageway underground. The passageway was about a foot wide and less than three inches high, extending over a hundred feet, with its exit in a secret underground chamber.
The only problem was that there was a three-headed Abyss Hound in that underground chamber, roughly the size of a lion. Lancelot wasn’t afraid of fighting such a beast, but the issue was dogs were known to have a keen sense of smell, so he might be discovered before even getting close. If this three-headed hound gave a loud warning and barked so that the entire Dungeon knew of an intruder, then he really would have wasted all his efforts.
...
In Lancelot’s vision, the large dog made of silver lines was lying in front of the sewer exit gnawing on something. With a closer look, he recognized outlines of fingers, feet, ears, and other body parts, causing the Human Knight a wave of nausea.
Following the passageway with his gaze, Lancelot shifted his vision to the circular building, the interrogation room the Succubi had mentioned. The first thing he noticed was that the walls of this interrogation room were three feet thick, almost as solid as those of a small fortress, which was completely indiscernible from the outside; there were numerous Metal cages against the walls, and he saw children resembling Lilu and Dong Quan, as well as Elves, humans, and other humanoid creatures.
But he did not see his Succubus comrades, nor did he see the rumored Succubus General Ulgog.
“Boss, how is it?” Clone Well’s voice echoed in his mind, “Did you find a way in?”
“Found one, there’s an Abyss Hound with the length of three heads at the entrance, might take some effort to deal with it,” Lancelot replied silently through mental communication, “I have a more important question for you. Do you know of any demon that’s about the size of a tempter demon, with bat wings on its back, a tail, and horns curving out to the sides on its head?”
“Sounds a bit like a Barlow Flame Demon, could also maybe be a Legion Demon... Wait, with a tail? You sure you saw it right?”
“No mistake,” Lancelot shook his head, “a thin and long tail, similar to that of a Succubus.”
“Hmm... interesting.” The skull’s eyes were fixed on an empty direction, obviously in deep thought. After a good while, it finally sent a telepathic message to Lancelot again, “I might need some time to check the knowledge in my brain. Can you give me a moment?”
“As quick as you can,” Lancelot shrugged, “Let’s deal with that dog first, climb onto my waist.”
Hearing this, Clone Well obediently flew to Lancelot’s waistband, having become quite accustomed to posing as an ornament. Lancelot’s palm brushed over himself, and a faint greenish protective barrier enshrouded him. This shield was not any profound cultivation technique but merely a barrier to block external air. Low-rank cultivators relied on this small trick to enter regions filled with miasma or poisonous smoke to gather rare and precious materials, while Lancelot was using it to prevent the gatekeeping demon hound from detecting his scent.
