Chapter 109 Finding the captives!

The grand sanctuary was very large. Roy and Julian were on the first floor. It had many corridors. Some were connected to three to five rooms.

Servants of Chaos were within these rooms.

Just like humans, they too needed sleep, food, and water to stay alive.

Thus, they could be seen sleeping inside.

After days of hard work, this was their first night of good sleep. So they were in a deep sleep.

They weren’t worried they would be targeted in their sleep. After all, a huge group was on shift, patrolling the corridors for any suspicious activities or unforeseen dangers. They would be notified the second an intruder is seen by them.

What they didn’t know was that someone was taking them out without giving them the chance to release the emergency signal.

Those unlucky enough to enter the same corridor as Roy and Julian were killed.

?[0)??? Those who were sleeping in their rooms were also assassinated by Roy in their sleep. They didn’t notice when he opened the door or crept up to them. Their eyes only opened in pain after he plunged his daggers into the Glabella, killing them instantly.

No one, basically, knew that intruders had snuck into the place they had made their temporary base in this small world and were thinning their forces.

Several dozens of corpses could be seen sprawled on the various corridors. Similarly, death figures could also be seen on bunkers whose sheets were red with their blood. They were all done in by a single man!

A system’s notification rang in his mind as he assassinated another one.

『Ding! Congratulation. You’ve assassinated 88 Servants of Chaos of the first to eleventh level. You get 8800 EXP. You obtained the “The Nightmare of Young Chaotic Beings” Title. It allows you to terrify others with your gaze. If a person falls victim to your killing intent, they will be inflicted with the “Fear” Debuff for one to three seconds. When feared, They won’t be able to move.』

Looking at it, Roy thinned his lips into a smile. ‘What a fucking good name for a title. Its effect is also nice. It was made to mess with bossy people who are secretly cowards and only dare to find trouble with people who they think are weak.’

Seeing another turn around the corner, Julian felt his mood deflating. “Just how big is this place? We’ve been in this maze for about an hour, and we still haven’t seen its end.”

“I think we’re almost done exploring the first floor.” Roy said thoughtfully, “We’ll probably find the way up ahead.”

The staircase leading up to the second floor from the first could be seen from two places. Let’s call them corridors A and B. Both were dark. But if your eyes have become used to it, it wouldn’t be a problem to make out the outlines of the people in the darkness.

“GhostWalker is too much. He keeps bossing us around like we’re at his beck and call. For thirteen days straight, he made us hunt down beasts and Far Westerners. If it weren’t for the fact that we restored some of our energy by consuming humans, we would be dead because of overworking. And today, he slapped us awake after we fell unconscious and told us to fetch the captives for him. Can’t he do it by himself? What an asshole!”

“It can’t be helped. He’s more closer to Chaos than us. We can only follow his commands unconditionally. At least, we will enjoy having our ranks upgraded from mere servants to acolytes of Chaos after completing this mission.”

Two people took the stairs to enter the corridor while chatting. Their conversation was overheard by two pairs of ears, but they didn’t realize that.

One was holding a lamp, which illuminated up to 5 meters of their surroundings. The other had his hands subconsciously on the hilt of his blades.

They didn’t even glance at the entrance of corridor B and moved to the other end of Corridor A, where a door could be seen.

Roy and Julian eyed each other.

Julian whispered in his ears, “Are you thinking what I am thinking?”

Roy gave him a nod. “Yes, I believe following after them would lead us directly to the hostages.”

They stepped into the darkness ahead, following after Jasper and Kayden without making any noise.

“Open it.” Reaching before the door, Kayden handed over a set of keys dangling from an iron circle to Jasper. He wasn’t good with keys. He covered it up by using the lamp to illuminate the keyhole. Jasper put one of the keys in it and twisted it, unlocking the door.

Pushing it open, they opened a room with a cage. Inside it, two terrified captives could be discerned. One was a young boy, and the other was a mature woman with long, silky white legs.

Hearing the sound of footsteps approaching, the boy hid in his mother’s bosom. She caressed his head, whispering that it’ll all be fine.

Clank!

Just then, metallic noises were produced by a key hitting the metal bars. She raised her head in horror. Reflected in her eyes were Kayden and Jasper. They had on a twisted smile.

Jasper licked his lips while directing a disgusting stare at the woman called Tanya. “It’s sad that we will part ways tonight. I at least wanted to have a good taste of you before sending you off to damnation. I guess I can only miss out on a fine product like you.”

Kayden, on the other hand, didn’t like the look in her eyes. “Don’t look at us like that, lady. We aren’t the bad guys. We’re only doing what’s good for our race. I mean, your pathetic lives don’t amount to much. You’re sub-humans, our prey. Taking out the fact you’re our meals, you’re pretty much useless. But at least you’ll be useful to us true humans in death. We’ll make good use of you by sacrificing you to Chaos and earning its secondary blessing.” He said these disturbing words too easily. Not a single sign of turbulence was present in the voice he used to say that. He really treated humans like ants. And he really was no longer a man. He was but a devil!
