Chapter 893: A Fallen Phoenix Is Inferior To A Chicken
Fiennes walked down the elevator. After about half a minute, the elevator stopped.
Hearing the crisp sound, Fiennes’ lips curved into an imperceptible curve.
For some reason, even though he was smiling, his expression was somewhat cold!
Soon, Fiennes walked out of the elevator. In his line of sight, there was a long and narrow pa.s.sage. The wall lamps that never went out all year round were emitting a faint light.
Fiennes walked forward step by step. In the dim pa.s.sage, the sound of footsteps was the only sound. It sounded particularly creepy.
After walking for about five meters, Fiennes turned a corner and saw a tightly locked door.
The door was a very cold silver color. If someone had paid attention to it, they would have discovered that such a large door was actually made of silver tear ore!
A small piece of silver tear ore could often be sold for a sky-high price, let alone such a two-meter-high door!
It was definitely a big deal!
Not only was it a symbol of wealth, that they could buy such rare silver tear ore. It also made people curious about the background of the person who built this place.
…
This place was the laboratory that the high priest had secretly built a few years ago.
It was located in the underground of the G.o.d’s Palace. Very few people knew about this place.
And it was not Fiennes’ first time here. He had no interest in the decorations here.
What he was most curious about was what the high priest had people do in the laboratory!
Fiennes continued to press the pa.s.sword lock outside the door, and the priceless silver tear mine door was opened in an instant.
This place used to be very lively, but now most of the things had been moved out.
Only some experimental equipment and various small animals soaked in unknown liquids could be seen.
Fiennes felt very disgusted when he first came here. As far as he knew, this laboratory used to do more than just experimenting with small animals.
There were also all kinds of living people, men, women, young and old.
The high priest was a crazy woman. For her own selfish desires, she spread a wide range of pathogens on the human body.
She said that in order to stimulate the human body’s endurance limit, she also fantasized about using her own strength to transfuse Dragon’s Blood to ordinary people. Who knew how many slaves and condemned criminals had lost their lives here.
However, Fiennes himself was not a kind man or woman. He had come to this day with the blood of countless other people on his hands.
In fact, when he first killed people, he was not even fifteen years old.
Moreover, he had killed the maid of Diya’s mother.
Thinking of those unbearable memories, Fiennes’ handsome brows furrowed slightly, and the faint smile on the corner of his mouth instantly disappeared.
In some aspects, Fiennes still admired the high priest. At least she was ruthless enough!
…
In a gla.s.s box not far away, there was an ugly lizard soaked in red liquid. When it saw Fiennes coming over, it seemed to be extremely curious. It struggled to stick its toes to the gla.s.s wall and looked at Fiennes.
Fiennes glanced at the lizard coldly. For some reason, he had the urge to vomit.
He quickly walked past the lizard and headed to a room on the right.
Fiennes quickly pushed open the door.
He saw a woman with disheveled hair in a room not far away. She was tied up with several thick chains. The chains were fixed all the way to the walls.
This long chain was sparkling with silver light. It was made of silver tear ore!
After all, it was made from a material that could cut through iron like mud. Back then, Jiang Xuecheng and Su Wan had relied on a silver tear ore dagger to jump off the cliff. It endured for more than ten meters before snapping in half. It was clear how strong this metal was!
Not to mention an ordinary woman, even a burly man would not be able to break free!
The chain was tied to the woman’s limbs. However, the length of the chain was carefully calculated. It was enough for her to carry out some simple activities in the room.
At least going to the toilet and eating would not be a big problem. At most, it would not be as flexible as when her body was free.
Hearing Fiennes’ footsteps, the woman who fell in pain in the corner of the wall suddenly raised her head.
If anyone other than Fiennes came in, they would definitely scream out in fear when they saw the woman’s face!
The woman who was bound by the silver tear mine chain was actually the high priest!
The high priest had always been so n.o.ble and aloof. When had she ever been in such a sorry state!
The high priest was wearing a light green dress with a retro bamboo pattern. Her originally plump face had somehow become thinner. Her beautiful eyes, which were usually bright and clear, were now suffused with a tired glow.
Even so, the high priest’s entire person was still astonis.h.i.+ngly beautiful. In the past, she was a n.o.ble beauty that could only be seen from afar and could not be touched. Now, there was a kind of beauty that was down and out. She was so beautiful that people would feel sorry for her.
The high priest gritted her teeth and stood up. The silver chains binding her hands and feet rustled, making people feel a chill in their hearts!
“Fiennes! You sc.u.m! I’m going to kill you!”
Before the high priest finished speaking, she immediately took a step forward and wanted to rush towards Fiennes.
However, there were too many shackles on her body. Before she could slap Fiennes’ face, her feet were tripped by the chains and she almost fell in front of Fiennes!
The high priest cried out in pain, her beautiful brows immediately furrowed.
Seeing the high priest’s overconfident look, Fiennes revealed a disgusted and mocking smile.
“Eh, did I hear wrongly? You want to kill me? How?”
That’s right. In the past, even if the high priest wanted to kill someone, she should have kept her composure and acted elegantly.
At this moment, the high priest, who was under the control of someone else, was no longer as calm as before.
When the high priest heard the mocking words of the young n.o.ble in front of her, she opened her mouth abruptly. She did not care about her image at all and directly spat on Fiennes!
Fiennes did not expect this woman to not have such an image. He was stunned for a moment and almost forgot to dodge.
Fortunately, there was still some distance between the two of them. Otherwise, the spit would not have landed on Fiennes’ clothes, but on his face!
It made sense. A person who used to be praised at the top and liked to look down on others, now that she had been imprisoned in this place for so many days, it was not strange for her to be a little crazy.
After all, he had only been locked in the bas.e.m.e.nt for half a day by Diya’s mother, and he had almost hit the wall and hurt himself.
However, at that time, he had not turned fifteen yet, and his mental fort.i.tude was far from what it was today.
Those bad memories were brought up by the high priest. Fiennes seemed to be covered by dark clouds, and the cold smile on his face became more and more frightening.
He suddenly reached out his hand and directly grabbed the high priest’s sharp chin!
“The most aloof and most sober high priest in the G.o.d’s Palace actually spat like a shrew in the marketplace? I have really learned something today.”
