Chapter 768 The Shocking Truth
Xia Xin and Li Qinghan immediately looked in the direction where the voice came from and found that the voice came from the mouth of a young man.
The young man was pale, ragged, and looked very weak. There was also a small tube connected to his body. Obviously, his blood was being sucked out as well.
However, what made him different from other detainees was that he lived in a "single room" by himself, with no one accompanying him.
Seeing this, Xia Xin immediately came to the young man's cage. Xia Xin looked at the young man and immediately asked, "Are you awake? Do you know the situation here?"
The young man nodded. He glanced at Xia Xin with a wary look in his eyes. However, when he saw the dragon armor and dragon wings on Xia Xin, as well as Li Qinghan behind him, he showed a puzzled look in his eyes and asked, "Are you humans?"
Xia Xin nodded and said, "Yes, we are humans. My name is Xia Xin, and her name is Li Qinghan. We are from the Karen Empire. This time, Yuewang City was besieged by Karen beasts. We used other methods to leave Yuewang City and came to the rear of Karen beasts to relieve the pressure on Yuewang City. This action is to disrupt Karen beasts, and we happened to meet you."
"How can I rescue you?" Xia Xin asked the young man.
Originally, Xia Xin thought that he could rescue the humans here by simply destroying the cages.
However, after trying it once, he found that the cage would not be damaged at all under his attack.
Such a result puzzled Xia Xin. He did not expect that the obviously more core 'pillar' could be destroyed. This place that did not seem to be particularly solid was actually stronger than the 'pillar'.
The young man's eyes lit up with excitement when he heard this, but it soon dimmed. He smiled bitterly and said, "Save us? Do you know how many people are here? Do you know why the Karen beast captured us?"
Xia Xin had some guesses in his mind. It was probably King Qingli who wanted to use the blood of these humans for mysterious sacrifices in order to obtain powerful props.
Xia Xin expressed his guess.
Then he asked, "What's the specific situation here? How were you captured here? How long have you been captured?"
The young man nodded and began to tell Xia Xin the story.
It turned out that there were more than 10,000 humans captured here. They were all from the Karen Empire and were captured in various wars.
However, they were only imprisoned before, and were brought here this time to serve as sacrifices for King Qingli.
They were imprisoned in this underground space, their blood was sucked every day, and their cultivation was suppressed, so they had no way to display their skills.
According to the young man, this cell is extremely special. Anyone inside it will become a mortal and will be unable to exert their own strength.
The reason why Xia Xin's attack was ineffective was because of the special nature of this cell.
He can directly absorb Xia Xin's attack and eliminate it, so that it will not have any impact on the cell.
Xia Xin frowned and asked in confusion, "This is too strange. Could it be that the doors of every cell here are so special?"
The young man shook his head and said, "Yes, each cell is special, because this underground facility is actually a whole. Except for these passages that were dug out, the rest of the place is a whole divine tool."
Xia Xin was greatly surprised, and Li Qinghan beside him also looked surprised.
This is incredible!
You know, the entire underground space is very large. If this entire space is a prop, then this prop is absolutely ridiculously powerful.
Most likely, this item is a colorful quality item.
"Don't believe it?" The young man smiled weakly and said, "You can attack the wall next to you, and you can break it, but where I am is a cage."
Xia Xin immediately attacked the wall next to the prison door, and sure enough, a hole was created on the wall.
Xia Xin didn't care about this because many of the earth walls on both sides of the passage were destroyed during the battle with the Karen beast.
Xia Xin continued to attack, and finally, Xia Xin's attack failed to work, and Xia Xin saw a black "iron wall".
"It actually is a prop." Xia Xin muttered to himself. This result was beyond his expectations.
"But since it is an integrated prop, why can the pipe on the pillar in the core area be destroyed?" Xia Xin said puzzledly.
"What, you destroyed the pipeline?"
The young man's expression changed when he heard Xia Xin's words.
Then he said with relief: "Yes, if you hadn't destroyed the pipeline, I wouldn't have been able to wake up."
The young man smiled bitterly: "Alas, this is really not worth it."
Xia Xin and Li Qinghan were somewhat puzzled and did not understand why the young man reacted in this way.
"What's wrong? Shouldn't we destroy the pipeline?" Xia Xin asked.
In Xia Xin's view, if they destroyed the pipeline, they would destroy the "machine" and achieve the goal of saving these people.
And the facts have proved this, otherwise he would not need this sober young man.
After all, the young man was originally in a coma.
Therefore, after listening to the young man's words, Xia Xin felt very puzzled.
The young man shook his head and said, "Yes, destroying those pipes can indeed weaken the power of the entire divine tool, but this also comes at a price."
The young man said: "This will cause many ordinary people who have no strength to die directly."
Xia Xin was stunned for a moment.
This result was beyond his expectations.
He thought that destroying those pipes would cause chaos among the Karen beasts and save the humans imprisoned there.
However, the result was different from what he expected.
He didn't expect that his good intentions would lead to bad consequences.
Xia Xin looked very unhappy.
He and Qian Li destroyed quite a few pipelines, and it is very likely that many ordinary humans died because of their wrong actions.
Li Qinghan also knew how Xia Xin felt right now, so she consoled him, "You didn't mean it, so don't blame yourself too much."
In Li Qinghan's opinion, she actually didn't care much about the lives of these people here.
The people here are just from Karen's small world and will not have any disputes with her.
Therefore, Li Qinghan took an indifferent attitude towards them.
She just cares about Xia Xin's feelings.
After all, as a descendant who grew up in a powerful country, Li Qinghan knew very well what was important and what was not important.
When sacrifice is needed and when it is not.
Who can be sacrificed and who cannot be sacrificed.
Li Qinghan has his own judgment in his heart.
