Chapter 15 Ruins (6)

"Ah!?" According to Danica's current physical condition, she would have been holding her breath for half an hour, and she would probably sink into the bottom as soon as she fell into the water and could never get up again.

After looking at Danica with a very ugly face, Coris continued with a smile: "It's not that easy to get out. After arriving at that cave, we still need to crack a series of mechanism traps to leave here. This road is the route that the expedition team went out. In order to cut off the life of later generations, they destroyed many places. A considerable number of mechanisms were locked directly. How can we go there depends on the specific situation. By the way, it is said that there will be some terrifying creatures on the road, and a fierce battle will be needed at that time."

Danica's face became increasingly ugly. She couldn't get out at all because of this. Although she relied on the potion to stimulate her body's potential, she was already very good to walk normally after all because of such severe injuries. Running and jumping are very reluctant, so she can fight with her.

"Can you get through this journey?" asked Corris.

Danica shook her head and said, "I'm afraid it won't work. My body can't support any strenuous exercise."

"What should I do?" Coris said helplessly, "These who arranged these institutions were outstanding adventurers and explorers. Even after thousands of years of erosion, it would not be so easy to leave the traps they carefully arranged. I can't even guarantee that I can go out alive, let alone bring you such a burden. What do you think we should do?"

Danica calmed down and said, "I think you must have a solution."

"Is that?" said Corris, "why didn't I know I had a solution to this dilemma."

Danica said: "Because my physical condition was even far less than that when you promised to take me out." Danica was slumped on the ground and needed someone to help him walk. At that time, Curis made a choice to take her away. Danica didn't believe that this was casual perfunctory. Judging from the preparations made by Curis for this adventure, she was a person who made a decision and then moved. When making any choice, such a person would fully consider whether it was really feasible. She would definitely have a way to leave here easily.

Cures smiled and said, "Yes, I promise. I do have an easier way to take you out, but it will cost you some extra money."

Danica said unwillingly: "We have agreed just now, you have promised me." She had clearly promised to take herself out, so why did she have to pay the "extra cost" at this time?

Cures sighed and said, "Take back your words, you should be clear about the current situation and don't let me look down on you."

Danica was speechless for a moment. Indeed, judging from the current situation, she had no qualifications to bargain with Curis at all. As an absolutely strong party, Curis could raise the price arbitrarily without considering her feelings and ability to pay. In this case, Danica asked such a "naive" question, which may really make her look down on her.

Danica suppressed her anger and asked, "So what extra price do I need to pay?"

"Soul." Curris' green eyes shone with evil light, "I found that you have a high-quality soul, which will be the biggest reliance you can trade with me."

Soul? Danica took a few deep breaths. Could it be that Curis is not actually a magician, but a warlock?

Danica has seen in a travelogue that there is a kind of professional in this world who is a warlock who specializes in evil spells. They can obtain the souls of other people through some kind of ritual. These souls can be used to cast powerful spells, or exchange them with demons as commodities in exchange for powerful power.

In that travel book, there is no difference between giving the soul to the warlock and the demon, and they will fall into a miserable situation where life is worse than death.

Thinking of this, Danica couldn't help but shudder. The warlock was in a state of everyone shouting and beating on the mainland. Everyone did not welcome these sinister and despicable guys, especially the Holy See of Light, who regarded the warlock as a heretic and would directly burn it to death with the holy light after being caught.

Under the suppression of all parties, warlocks are rare, and the remaining ones are hidden in the corner and live in peace. Unexpectedly, I encountered such a dangerous warlock when I went out for the first expedition. What's worse is that my life fell into her hands.

Danica didn't want to die, and she didn't want to end her soul into his hands. She was worse than death, but now she was forced into a corner by the situation.

Danica looked at Corice and said, "Maybe we have other options."

Curris asked, "What do you mean?"

Danica said nervously: "You should have heard that truly valuable wood can be used as furniture, or even carved into handicrafts, instead of being burned directly as firewood. Since you say that my soul is very good, why not choose to squeeze the value as much as possible instead of using it directly as a consumable."

"What's your value?" said Curris.

Although Curis had no expression when she said this, since she asked this and said that Danica still had hope, she adjusted her words and said, "The simplest thing is, I can help you gain more valuable souls."

"You want to do something for me?" Curris said with a chuckling.

Danica nodded and said, "Yes, I can bring you more value when doing things for you."

What a cunning little girl, she really treats herself as a fool? Coris shook his head gently and said, "I can still let you do things for me after you get your soul, and at that time, because your soul is in my hands, I can also make sure you don't play any tricks. After all, you are a smart little guy."
