In the large room, only a few green emergency magic lights were still emitting a dim light. Together with the thunder and lightning that erupted from time to time on the silver-white railings, the entire space seemed mysterious and quiet.

Piero, the only man in black robe standing on the field, opened his only exposed pair of dark eyes and looked straight at Galen lying on the ground, who was taking in less air and outgoing more air. He didn't know what he was thinking.

Chen Senran lay on the ground and rested for a while. Although he felt that his mental energy was still severely exhausted and he had a splitting headache, the strength in his hands had recovered somewhat. He glanced at Piero who was staring at Galen.

Subconsciously, he grasped the emerald sword tightly.

There was no response. Piero seemed to be possessed. He stared at Galen and had no reaction to anything around him. Chen Senran took a deep breath and bravely propped up his body, trying to be careful not to let himself go.

Make a little noise, even though you are at an absolute disadvantage now, any opportunity is worth seizing.

While staring at Piero, Chen Senran carefully climbed up and finally stood on the ground again, assuming a standard offensive posture.

Still no reaction. Chen Senran held the sword with both hands, and silently, a dark flame surged on the jade sword, and stepped...

The long sword is about to come out.

"Uh... uh... uh... ah." Piero, who had been staring at Galen, suddenly made a nervous voice, that hoarse and low roar, like the howl of a lonely ghost on a cold winter night.

Chen Senran's breathing stagnated, and he froze on the spot. The sword he was preparing to strike was interrupted by Piero's inexplicable roar. But his breathing was not disordered, and he instantly adjusted his state, and once again

I went to capture Piero's figure, but found...the next moment...

A pair of dark pupils had appeared in front of him. Chen Senran was startled and took a step back. He desperately suppressed his urge to stab out with a sword at all costs. He knew that he had been discovered.

Hierro came back to his senses from his mad state, so this thrust of his sword was definitely an act of seeking death, so he might as well save some energy and think of other ways.

With this thought, Chen Senran was about to put the flames on the sword back into his body to conserve his strength, but what happened next moment once again exceeded Chen Senran's expectations.

Because the pair of dark pupils suddenly came close to him, before Chen Senran could react, he felt the jade sword in his hand pierce into something unknown, and there was a slight slapping sound, as if

The sword plunged into the water, and the flames on the sword filled Piero's body with a "chi--" sound, surrounding his whole body.

The dim flames illuminated Piero's black robe, but did not burn any of it. Piero did not make any cry of pain, and still looked at him so coldly and inhumanly.

This was completely beyond Chen Senran's expectation. He frowned and looked at Piero, and asked somewhat strangely: "What do you want to do?"

It would make sense if Piero discovered his intention and killed him directly, but what happened now that he directly bumped into his own sword? Even Chen Senran, who has experienced countless big scenes,

I was confused by this weird scene.

"I was seriously injured by your sneak attack, and you took the opportunity to escape." Piero said without any emotion. There was no fluctuation in his dark pupils, and he was as calm as a machine. When he said this

, the flames surrounding him began to burn his body, and there was a burning smell in the air, and he took a step back.

Then Chen Senran felt his sword plunge into the water again.

"Puch -" What was strange was that there was no trace of blood or anything like that flowing out. Chen Senran wanted to see the wounds, but he couldn't see anything clearly because the light was too dim.

But one thing he probably knew was that Piero was saving them, but why?

So he asked: "Why?"

"Chen Senran, you didn't strike me as a very curious person before." Piero glanced at Chen Senran calmly and stepped back again, "add more fire."

Chen Senran narrowed his eyes and began to think about another question, "Do you think your boss will believe it?"

"It's better to have an excuse than to have no excuse." Piero stepped forward again.

Chen Senran took a deep look at Piero and once again triggered a burst of flames.

So there was such a strange scene in the whole room. An exhausted man stood there holding a flaming sword, while on the other side a guy who was burning and smelling of burnt bumped into the weak sword again and again.

The edge of the sword allowed the flames to burn him.

On the fourteenth sword, Piero, who had been burned and almost revealed his true appearance, collapsed on the ground, ignoring the scars all over his body, and said as if nothing had happened: "The password for the cell is

Upper left, lower right..."

After memorizing the extremely complicated password, Chen Senran did not have the kindness to go see if Piero was really seriously injured. He walked directly to the cell door, opened the silver-white railings, and helped Caterina.

come out.

At this time, Galen also recovered a little strength. He glanced at Piero who was sitting in a corner where the light could not reach, took Caterina from Chen Senran's hand, and touched her face with some distress.

, "It's okay, right..." He didn't say the first word, but Catalina blocked the next words with her mouth.

Chen Senran did not bother the couple who were surviving the disaster, but went to the side and kicked the unconscious Tai Long awake.

The cold-faced killer, whose heart was damaged, reluctantly stood up. Before he could ask Chen Senran what was going on, he saw the man and woman kissing passionately and called out with a somewhat ugly face: "Sister."

Catalina, who was in the midst of excitement, opened her mouth with some hesitation, and gave a blushing smile, which was regarded as an agreement.

Seeing that another bloody plot was about to unfold, Chen Senran coughed quickly to break the awkward atmosphere. The most important thing now was to escape. Who knows when those two bastards would come back.

So a group of people immediately returned to the original route, and there was an exit in Kostya's cell.

Before leaving the house, Chen Senran glanced at Piero again who was sitting in the corner, thinking of what he had been looking at Galen before, and vaguely seemed to have caught something.

When Chen Senran and his party left, Piero, who was slumped in the corner, let out a long breath, muttered something to himself somewhat self-deprecatingly, and began to take off his black robe, and in the darkness, the completely ruined

Underneath the robe, there seemed to be nothing but darkness.
