The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess
chapter-534

Inside a dark colourless prison cell, Shen's body, which was as round as a ball previously, had slowly started to lose its belly fat.

Wrinkles had formed all over his face and rotting in the cell, his body was covered with dust and filth.

As he was trembling and continuing his daily routine of cursing his enemies, his ear caught upon the subtle sound of something sliding.

He opened his eyes and looked around to find nothing.

He rubbed his eyes and as his eyelids fluttered, his expression changed and he was about to scream however a gag was shoved into his lips.

"Hmm...Ummm...."

A dark-veiled man appeared out of nowhere.

"Hello, Sir Shen."

"You might be wondering what is going on?"

"So let me answer the question you are curious about."

"Your request for death has been approved by His Highness, so I am finally here to set you free."

"Oooooo..."Shen tried to ask who this person was referring to.

"I don't know what you are saying and I don't have too much time to waste on you."

It was the last thing Shen heard before his throat was slit by a dagger and everything around him turned dark.

The man after cutting Shen's head stood up and spoke.

"Your Highness, I have done my job here."

"Good, you can leave now."

"I am going to wend up the things here."

A cold voice was heard from another side and the man soon disappeared from the cell, leaving the dead body of Shen.

.......

"These scary guys."

Humans have bodies as tough as a giant greeted Alex and Quinn as they stepped into the underground labyrinth.

It was surprising to see such types of humans who have lost their reason and only know one thing which is to stop the intruder.

Each of them was around 3 metres tall and looked bulky as Orcs.

The giants ran towards Quinn and swung their arms at him.

At first glance, it looked like they were running around in anger and even at such a speed, their breathing was not disturbed and their strides were also quite constant.

The movement of a person seemed to have been engraved into their bodies.

As the giant approached them, Alex moved as fast as lightning.

Leaving behind after images, Alex cut the ankles of the legs that support the weight of such giants.

The giant lost their centre of gravity and their body bent.

Shortly, after Alex slammed his fist and put them in one area.

The giant's face which had been contorted with pain screamed in astonishment.

As they crashed onto the wall one after another, Quinn snapped his finger and threw blue lotus flames at them.

The lotus flame burst like a cracker and burnt their bodies into ashes.

Quinn walked towards Alex and muttered, "There are quite several unusual humans guarding this place."

"What is this place?"

"Is it a ruin or an ancient chamber that holds something great?"

Alex raised his brows and spoke, "Professor, you are thinking too much."

"There is nothing of that sort here."

"We are almost at the end."

Alex and Quinn made their way into the underground.

They were assaulted by golems and various kinds of deformed creatures but they were cut apart mercilessly by the duo.

As Quinn ventured inside, he wondered why the hell was he there.

Alex was more than enough to deal with all the cris here. He wondered if he needed him for his knowledge but as far as he knew Alex had a thorough understanding of magic and applications while his knowledge is more than he could imagine.

"We are here."

Quinn snapped out of his thoughts as he heard Alex's words.

At that moment, Quinn felt something from afar.

A dense and rich layer of mana.

Sensing such rich mana, he was astonished for a moment however as he looked at Alex, his heart skipped a bit.

Something strange seemed to exist in Alex's eyes.

It was dark...

No, something deeper than the alien darkness.

It wouldn't be wrong if he called it the abyss.

The abyss seemed to suppress every existence around it and eerily stimulate the depth of a person's heart.

In the end, no words came out as he saw shining particles in the air and he muttered with surprise.

"A mana vein."

"What is a mana vein doing here and why is no one know about it?"

"Because of him," Alex muttered.

Quinn followed Alex's line of sight and saw a protruding mass of mana rocks from the ground forming a circle.

There were runes on the walls and various layers of magic circles were drawn on the ground which was glowing dimly absorbing the mana from the surrounding. In the middle of this lay a man with long hair and an unkempt beard falling over his chest.

No words came out from his lips as he saw the scene wondering what was going on.

"Do you know him?'

"Did you come for him?"

Alex observed Quinn's expression for a moment and then burst into laughter.

"Professor, not only me, but you also know this person very well."

"He is quite a reputed figure and is well known throughout Kinley because of his great deeds."

"How can you forget someone this important? Do you have the habit of forgetting diseases?"Alex mocked Quinn which made him embarrassed.

"Are you kidding me?"

"This person looks like a bastard whose life essence seems to be squeezed from his body."

"I knew you would not believe me but I am telling the truth."

"The one lying there is none other than the bastard Shen."

"Holy shit!"Quinn jumped back in surprise.

'How is this possible?'Quinn felt a lump stuck in his throat as he received the greatest shock of his life.

Swish!

A deathly silence lingered for a moment, which was broken by a scream.

"It seems that he had woken up from his long slumber," Quinn said with a bewildered expression.

"Yes, he woke up only to sleep again," Alex spoke with a wide grin on his face.
