The group of people walked into the secret passage again. It was actually not long, about 200 meters. However, because it was too narrow, the six of them could only walk in a line. Moreover, there were too many stones on the ground, and many of them were extremely sharp, if they were not careful, they could injure themselves.
It took the six of them quite a long time to walk to the secret room at the end of the passage. It was the first time Li Mo was here, so he did not know what was inside at all and tripped over many stones along the way.
Fortunately, Phil, who was walking behind him, reacted quickly and pulled him up in time every time. Otherwise, his handsome smile would have been ruined long ago.
As soon as they reached the secret room, Li Mo said to Phil, “Thank you. If it weren’t for you, I would have been covered in wounds.”
Phil only glanced at him and said disdainfully, “The Dragon Kingdom is not at all great. Looking at your skinny body, you must be so weak that you can’t even stand the wind. Hmph!”
Li Mo scratched his head and smiled. “Hehe, there’s nothing we can do. As slaves, being able to live is the greatest gift!”
After hearing this, the few of them looked at Li Mo with a hint of pity in their eyes.
In order to lower their guards, Li Mo had to gain their sympathy
“But I’m very satisfied now. I have a place to live, and my family is by my side, so I won’t go hungry! Now that I have seen the humans outside the Dragon Palace, I feel no regrets!”
With Li Mo’s superb performance, the people who were originally on guard began to relax.
Especially the three women, they felt even more sympathy for Li Mo, the poor wretch who was enslaved in the Dragon Kingdom.
Angela gently wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes, walked over and patted Li Mo’s arm, she said, “After we get the Sword of Laszka, we’ll definitely tell Captain Ed about you. When the time comes, we’ll come and save you and your family.”
Mace and Alizi nodded with reddened eyes.
Although Ventine did not say anything, she looked at Li Mo with sympathy.
Li Mo’s expression showed sincere gratitude, but he thought to himself, “What a bunch of idiots.”
After chatting for a while, the members of the Dragon Slayer squad began to turn their attention to the sword. After all, they had already spent a lot of time. It would be troublesome if the guards at the door woke up after the effects of the drug had worn off.
Phil pointed at the big stone door in the secret room and looked at Li Mo. “Take a look. This is the secret door. Do you remember anything?”
Li Mo walked over and reached out to touch the door embedded in the stone wall. There was no keyhole, and it felt extremely smooth. There were no cracks, so it didn’t seem like there was a mechanism.
He narrowed his eyes and stared at the secret door. He asked the people behind him, “Have you tried to break this door by force? It’s just a stone. It should be easy to break it.”
Angela shook her head and said, “Phil and Vintine have tried all kinds of methods, but this door doesn’t move at all. Phil’s sword is almost broken.”
“Also, I’ve tried to use magic, but it doesn’t work on this door.”
The people frowned. Seeing that Li Mo was just staring at the door in a daze, they were a little disappointed. If Li Mo had never heard about this secret door in the Dragon Palace for so many years, then they had no idea how to open it.
Knowing that they couldn’t count on Li Mo, they began to look for a way to open the secret door. Phil held the sword and hacked at the stone. Angela also raised her wand and chanted different spells.
But no matter how they tried, they couldn’t open the stone door.
As everyone was racking their brains, Li Mo was also planning something.
This was the first time he had heard of and seen this secret door. Even thy were unable to open it, so how could he know?
Even if he had a way, he would not be stupid enough to help them. What was the difference between that and betraying Melia?
However, Li Mo was still a little worried that he would have to deal with five skilled people by himself.
However, Li Mo had fully activated his infinite talent skill and learned Melia’s and Iris’ dragon magic, with his current strength, he did not need to be afraid of these people at all.
If he wanted to take them down at once, it would just be a matter of snapping his fingers.
However, this was the dragon race’s territory, and as a human slave, he had only been here for a few days. It didn’t make sense for him to have learned dragon magic of two powerful figures.
Moreover, when the dragon magic was used, it would be earth-shattering. It would definitely alarm the the other dragons.
Dragon magic was the only skill he knew at the moment. Since he couldn’t use it to deal with these people, he could only rely on his own strength.
But., he did not know martial arts! Before he got the system, he was just a good-for-nothing. To ask him to deal with five dragon slayers with his bare hands was no different than sending him to his death.
So, Li Mo did not plan to use force. He wanted to use his wits to take down these people.
Seeing that the people in front of him were still blindly trying to open the secret door with all kinds of methods, Li Mo shook his head. These people had strong limbs but simple minds! Didn’t they know that the more anxious they were, the more they would seek help from the wrong people?
Li Mo slowly walked to Angela’s side, who looked the most approachable, he asked, “Miss Angela, I’ve heard you mention the High Priest before. Since he knows that the Sword of Laszka is in this treasure cave, didn’t he tell you about the secret door?”
Angela lowered her head and looked for traces of magic barrier near the secret door, she said, “On the Sakka continent, the dragon race is very mysterious. Even the high priest, who has extraordinary abilities, only knows a little about the dragon race.”
“Then didn’t you prepare more tools and magic this time? After all, if you were discovered, you would be facing the powerful dragon race.”
Mace heard this and came over as well. “Of course we know that. That’s why Angela bought the strongest knockout drug in the black market long ago to prevent a confrontation with the Dragon Guards.”
Li Mo nodded in understanding. He thought for a moment and said, “It’s been more than four hours now. I see that you’re not sure about the effect of the knockout drug. What if the guards wake up later?”
Angela waved her hand, she said, “I already thought of this at that time, so I bought more of the knockout drug. If the guards wake up and find us, I’ll knock them out again. But this will expose our tracks. It will be very difficult to sneak into the Dragon Palace in the future.”
Li Mo thought, “Great. So Angela still has the knockout drug on her.”
