Auxiliary Women's Strategy: A Virtuous Wife Helps the King to Rule the World
Chapter 155 Delivery
The third in command was just about to leave when his steps suddenly paused without warning. His whole body stagnated for a moment, then he slowly turned around and said to Su Nan and the captain with a sharp look: "Qin Fen, your team is responsible for delivering the Blood God Pill to the Demon God today." After saying this, he turned around again without hesitation and strode out without looking back. His resolute back seemed to carry an unquestionable majesty.
Only after the Third In Commander's figure completely vanished from everyone's sight, as if completely swallowed by darkness, did the Captain, as if freed from some kind of confinement, slowly raise his head. His brows, once relaxed, now knitted together, forming deep furrows. With a solemn expression and a hint of resignation, he said, "Let's go and deliver the Blood God Pill."
This captain, whose strength had already reached the Unified Stage, was considered a veteran within the mysterious and dangerous Refining Horn Prison. In ordinary sects, with his prowess, he would at least secure the position of Elder, enjoying the respect and admiration of all. Yet, here, he was merely an ordinary captain. This filled Su Nan, a newcomer, with surprise and confusion. He simply couldn't fathom the complexities of this situation.
Even in the memory of the body she is in now - Guo Xin, there is no idea how many unfathomable and formidable masters are hidden in this Purgatory Prison.
The team members remained silent, closely following their leader as they walked in unison around the blood pool. There, a vast stone chamber loomed, a constant stream of people coming and going, a cacophony of footsteps and conversations mingling in a bustling atmosphere. Judging by their attire, those entering and exiting resembled individuals dedicated to some mysterious research endeavor. They wore robes meticulously crafted from an unknown material, a strange yet durable texture that seemed capable of withstanding some unknown danger. Without exception, their faces were covered with various masks, completely obscuring their features and making it difficult to discern their true expressions or identities.
Qin Fen was obviously very familiar with everything here. As soon as he stepped into the stone chamber, he shouted at the top of his voice: "Lao Liu, Lao Liu."
"Coming," an old, hoarse voice quickly replied. Immediately afterwards, a slightly hunched old man approached with hurried steps. His face was etched with traces of time, but his eyes held a hint of shrewdness. "Captain Qin, are you delivering today?"
"Yes, I just told you that." Qin Fen replied with a hint of urgency in his tone.
"This treasure bag belongs to the Demon God. This one is number one, this one is number two... and this one is number thirteen." The old man spoke methodically as he handed the treasure bags in his hand to Qin Fen one by one. Qin Fen, with a focused expression, took the fourteen treasure bags one by one, his movements skillful and quick, and then turned and walked out without hesitation.
Outside, Qin Fen began distributing the treasure bags. When it was Su Nan's turn, he paused noticeably, a look of thought flashing in his eyes. After a moment's thought, he said, "Guo Xin, you haven't seen the Demon God yet, have you?"
Su Nan shook his head slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of curiosity and nervousness.
"Then I'll leave this mission to you. Don't worry, don't be afraid. The demon might reward you with something if he sees this treasure bag," Qin Fen said with a smile, handing over a bright red treasure bag as bright as a flame. Su Nan subconsciously glanced at the bags in the hands of others. Most of them were a deep, inky black, with only one being a slightly dull gray.
Su Nan pretended to be somewhat resistant, frowned slightly and said, "Is the Demon Lord very scary?"
Qin Fen smiled, his expression hard to read, his eyes revealing deep meaning: "You'll know when you get there. You and I are brothers, and I won't harm you."
Lao Zhou also came over and said with a smile: "Don't tell me, I want to give away everything I've given away before. I don't know why, but I don't think it's a bad thing."
"Brother Zhou, you want to go? Then go ahead." Su Nan teased with a smile, a hint of playfulness on his face.
"Captain Qin must have had his reasons for asking you to go. I can't disobey Captain Qin's orders. Don't harm me, kid." Old Zhou also smiled and spoke in a relaxed tone, but his eyes showed respect and obedience for Qin Fen. Obviously, they were not truly afraid of Captain Qin. Captain Qin was very caring towards his men, and everyone was willing to obey his orders.
Su Nan also laughed, with a hint of determination in her eyes: "Do you really think I'm scared? Let's go." As she said that, she reached out to take the treasure bag, and according to Qin Fen's previous instructions, she walked towards the passage at the other end of the stone chamber.
The passage was as quiet as a forgotten corner of the world, a suffocating stillness pervading the air. Not a soul was visible. Su Nan's own heavy footsteps and rapid breathing echoed in her ears, the only signs of life in this silence. Although she was incredibly powerful and had achieved remarkable accomplishments in her cultivation, she was still a girl. Physical prowess was one thing, but inner courage was another. Nervously, she carefully pulled a piece of chocolate from her bosom and gently held it in her mouth, trying to ease her inner tension and uneasiness.
Since leaving the Eastern Region, her strength has gradually grown. Gradually, she's become less reliant on the system. When she first acquired it, she felt inextricably linked to it, unable to leave it. But as the days passed, she gradually discovered how deceptive it could be. What kind of world is this? A world that venerates the power of force, a cruel world where strength reigns supreme. What practical use are those bizarre gadgets? None of those powerful forbidden weapons could be conjured, and the system's only function now was to conjure household items and snacks. That was all.
Su Nan took a deep breath, adjusting his breathing rhythm, trying to gradually relax. He hummed an unknown tune, and his steps were no longer as heavy and hesitant as before.
Time passed by unknowingly, and soon she was pleasantly surprised to find that the passage gradually became wider, and the surrounding light became brighter, no longer as dim and depressing as before, and the temperature was not as high, no longer as scorching and unbearable as before, making her feel as if she was being roasted dry.
Finally, she reached the end of the passage. However, the scene there was beyond her wildest dreams. She froze, as if struck by lightning. Tears welled up uncontrollably, falling like beads from a broken string. Her legs trembled, as if they had lost all strength, barely able to bear the weight of her body, and she was about to collapse to her knees.
