Chapter 559: The Devil’s Cave
Everyone was whispering to each other as despair appeared on their faces.
Klein reached out to touch his chin. He was a little puzzled. What was the mysterious cave that they had mentioned previously?
James was very enthusiastic. “Don’t be sad, lady. Tell us the ins and outs of the matter in detail. Also, what is the mysterious cave that you mentioned? Why haven’t we heard of it before?”
At this time, the woman was already crying. She was out of breath and almost fainted. A few people surrounded her and tried to help her.
The bald uncle sighed softly. “You people from outside the mainland have only been here for a short time. You don’t know much about our place. Other than the Demon King Saxe who rules this space, there are many creepy secrets in this place that I didn’t have the time to tell you before…”
According to the bald uncle, that mysterious cave seemed to have existed for a very long time. No one knew when it began.
There wasn’t much of a difference between this space and the one Klein was in. They were all made up of small caves.
The people from before were still very adventurous and would excavate the surroundings. It was precisely because they were weak that accidents often happened.
At this point, the bald uncle could not help but lick his dry lips, as if he had recalled something terrifying.
“It was about thirty years ago. At that time, we were still very young, and many of our memories were already blurred. We only remember that we were a very adventurous warrior who came into contact with the darkest and most terrifying land in the legends…”
“This land id the Devil’s Cave. It is said that it is darkness where even light cannot be found.”
“Furthermore, there are often terrifying sounds, so the local residents completely sealed off the area, preventing others from entering.”
“However, the warrior didn’t seem to be willing to be lonely. He bravely barged into the area by himself and opened one of the caves, causing the mysterious cave to appear.”
Klein was somewhat curious. “What happened to the warrior? Did he take anything out of the cave? What’s his description of it?”
The bald uncle shook his head gently. “That person had entered and never came out again. This was the terrifying aspect of the Devil’s Cave…”
“Soon after, many people entered the space. Those who wanted to explore it didn’t come out again.”
“This also turned into a land of death. In the past few years, no one has dared to venture in.”
The bald uncle thought for a moment before saying, “That place is sealed and became a forbidden area. Not only are the locals not interested, even Demon King Saxe’s subordinates don’t dare to approach it. This shows how terrifying that space is.”
“In fact, Demon King Saxe had sent many people to explore this space. Apart from some who went in, they didn’t come back.”
“The others were watching from the outside and eventually gave up on entering.”
“Some people felt that this Devil’s Cave has a lot of treasures, but there are terrifying things guarding it. Those who went in weren’t a match for that guy, so they were killed.”
“Of course, some people felt that Devil’s Cave is inhabited by devils, and ordinary people will become the devils’ food once they entered.”
All sorts of rumors flew around, adding a layer of mystery to the Devil’s Cave.
And according to the woman, after her daughter was abducted by the black-shirted man, he was heading in the direction of the Devil’s Cave.
Although she hadn’t personally seen the black-shirted man enter the entrance of the cave, it was impossible for there to be a second fork in that direction.
After listening to the locals’ explanation, Klein suddenly felt a little curious that he had fallen into such a mysterious place.
He reached out and patted James on the shoulder. “In that case, I’ll lend a helping hand in the face of injustice. I can’t just stand by and watch a girl enter a tiger’s den, can I?”
James nodded. “It’s very similar to what I think. Let’s go take a look together. It would be even better if we could save her!”
Upon hearing that the two of them were going deep into the terrifying Devil’s Cave to save her, the woman suddenly opened her eyes and reached out to grab Klein’s sleeve.
“Then, thank you very much. If you can really save my daughter, I have nothing to repay you with, so I’ll let her give you her body!”
Klein hurriedly shook his head. “No need, no need. There’s no need to give me her body. Since I’m a man, I should do what a gentleman should do!”
Just as the two of them were ready to take action, Gray suggested that they explore together.
Klein shook his head gently. “No, you’re seriously injured. You have to stay and recuperate for a period of time.”
Gray shook his head. “Don’t worry. I know my body. This small action won’t be a problem.”
“Furthermore, I can’t be at ease with the two of you entering such a dangerous place…”
A look of gratitude appeared on Klein’s face. Gray was a man of loyalty. It seemed like he had indeed misunderstood him,
Furthermore, Gray’s abilities were very strong to begin with. Bringing him along meant that he had a strong backup plan.
The bald uncle led the few of them to the forbidden area and pointed at the vast area in front of them.
“I can only lead you here. The rest is up to you to figure it out yourselves. I won’t dare enter the area in front of you even if I were to die!”
Klein said, “It was said that the black-dressed man disappeared in that direction.”
“Even if he hasn’t entered the legendary Devil’s Cave, he will definitely be in this area and won’t be able to run far.”
The bald uncle smiled and said, “No problem. Leave this matter to us. We’ll bring him back no matter what!”
Even if the girl had met with a bad end, Klein would definitely give the woman an explanation!
Entering a brand-new space, Klein felt that the aura around him wasn’t quite right.
The space in the entire area was very large. It was said that the warrior from back then had only opened a cave, causing so many disasters.
The deeper he went, the more he felt that the atmosphere wasn’t quite right. The cold wind indeed sent chills down his spine.
Klein could really hear it. He didn’t know where the wailing came from, but it didn’t feel like an illusion.
James looked at Klein and asked, “Do the few of you feel like you can hear something or smell something?”
Klein nodded. “We can indeed hear it. It feels like there are many people crying, but it also feels like there are many people laughing…”
This was absolutely terrifying. It was too terrifying.
Klein quickly opened the system’s inquiry system, which could help him find out the specific situation of the surrounding space.
This included what items were inside or what dangers were present.
But the strange thing was that when Klein inquired, he discovered that as long as there was no developed space, the system was unable to give an accurate answer.
Although there were some constructive suggestions, they were basically like a bride covered in a veil. It was impossible to see her exact appearance.
This was the first time such a situation had occurred, and it surprised Klein.
