Chereads / Demon Lord Wants To Escape / Chapter 5 - The Hope Is Locked Up In The Dungeon

Chapter 5 - The Hope Is Locked Up In The Dungeon

After circling several times, Lance gradually calmed down. He knew that now was not the time to be anxious. He needs to think of a way.

"First of all... no one from the Demon Race will help me." He muttered: "For them, political marriage may be my only value. Besides, except for some followers, all my subordinates belong to my father. I don't have any power of my own, so someone who can help me is the power to oppose the demons!"

Thinking of this, he suddenly became depressed: "But this place is a demon city!! Where does the power to oppose the demons come from?"

Moreover, he is also a demon, and even the third prince of Demon Race. If he really finds someone who is against the demons, he will be probably killed first!

Why could he be a mix-race trash? Look at Virgil! Look at Dante! Why they can live so well...

Thinking of this, his heart trembled suddenly! He was so carried away by the stream of information that he even forgot about "Lance's'character"!

He is timid and cowardly, extremely harsh on his subordinates, but submissive to those who dare to yell and taunt him. His second brother seems to cause trouble for him because of this!

Wasn't that performance just now...exposed?

No, Lance secretly made up his mind. Who knows if demons have a way to identify souls? If he didn't want people to doubt him, he would be better act as the same as before, at least similar in some places. It's best to act non-threatening, or maybe it's better to act more nonsensical?

But he still have to run away. Finally he was back to this topic again. He is not Dante...

Wait! Lance's eyes suddenly lit up: "Those humans!"

Yes! ! There are powers opposing the demons in this city! Nonsense, disguise, everything is there! Isn't it the group of humans who were captured and returned!

In order to protect them, he had learned a lot about the situation before. Although some of them have been sold to slave traders, there are still some of the most lively ones locked up in the Corsas dungeon!

Lance saw hope! His human blood should be able to do something for himself! He wants to excape! Even if he kill himself, he doesn't want to marry that princess!

"JiangCheng!" Lance greeted: "Let's go!"

Although Lance's body is useless to a demon, he is still half a demon and of royal blood, at least stronger than ordinary low-level warriors.

After leaving the palace, he quickly rushed to his mount and jumped on it. It was the giant beast before. Everything about the Demon Race was too big. This guy is a Behemoth, one of the few loyal ministers he has: the kind without much wisdom. At the same time, Behemoth is also a symbol of the royal family.

The giant beast marched forward, and all the demons it encountered fell down and bowed down along the way. But Lance didn't even look at it and had already made up his mind!

Even if it will turned this Demon Capital Corsus upside down, he also ran away from this marriage!

Soon, he arrived at his destination - the dungeon. The manager here is a Balrog named Spark. After seeing the Behemoth from a distance, he came out to greet him.

"His Highness, the Third Prince." Spark bowed and saluted, spraying sparks from his mouth as he spoke.

Obviously, this wasn't Lance's first time here. This hot feeling made Lance wave his hands in disgust: "It's so hot! Stay away from me! Where are those humans?"

"They are still locked up on the third floor, His Highness." Spark said flatteringly.

"Take me there."

"Yes." Spark said and led the way. All the dungeons in the Demon Capital were made of black stone, so the dungeon was damp and dark. But it felt warm to be with this Balrog and there was no need to hold up a torch.

Following the circular staircase of the dungeon and passing through three large gates, Lance was taken to a room. The room was composed of a large black-gray spar, and inside the spar was a group of imprisoned humans. There were about seven people in this group, and all of them looked haggard.

Obviously, this spar's crystal image is one-sided, the arrival of Lance and Balrog did not even cause the group of humans to make any movement.

"Open the door." Lance ordered: "I want to go in and talk with them."

"Well..." Spark suddenly hesitated. He still knew a little about this third prince. After all, the officials in the capital always knew more. So he wasn't surprised at all when Lance came to see this group of humans, but...the third prince seemed bolder than he thought!

He wasn't afraid of opening the cell door because these humans were tied by magic chains and couldn't use magic energy.

If it were any other prince, he would have carried it out without saying a word, but this is the third prince... he doesn't seem to have much strength.

"What's wrong!" Lance snapped: "Open the door when I ask you to!"

A red light flashed in JiangCheng's eyes and his blood-red eyes were fixed on the Balrog.

Spark scratched his head and glanced at JiangCheng. He was already half relieved but still warned: "His Highness, please be careful. Although these humans are restricted, they are cunning and cruel... You must not main idea."

Lance suspected that his ears had heard it wrong. Are the demons in this world actually honest?

Spark opened the cell door. The moment it opened, seven pairs of resentful eyes were already looking towards the cell door! In addition to resentment, they could also see resentment, fearlessness, and determination.

This group of humans was very aware of their current situation, so they appear fearless. There were seven people, six men and one woman. After they three walked in, the six men had already stood in front of the woman silently. They didn't speak but stared at them.

"You get out first." Lance said to Spark: "I want to talk to them alone."

Flames were flying around the Balrog's body. He was a little reluctantly.

"Get out of here! You're too damn hot!" Lance said impatiently.

Spark looked aggrieved. This is a racial talent and the heat is not his fault! But now that the third prince had said to this point, he had no choice but to retreat.

After Balrog walked out, Lance looked at these humans and said in the common language he just remembered: "Do you know who I am?"

"Of course." A man stared at Lance with disdain: "On the way to this Second Demon Capital, we heard all the time that the third prince is a hybrid of humans and demons! He was just the trash that fainted after being affected by the edge of the forbidden curse!

Faced with this taunt, Lance remained unmoved. This human seemed to be mocking him, but Lance saw something different. This human can understand the language of the demons, which is not something ordinary people can do!

Although he didn't know what the specific education situation is like in humans, but even in a civilized society like the earth, a person who can understand other languages must have educated well, right?

In this different world, a human who knows the common language and can understand the languages ​​of other races... Big Fish! And he doesn't seem to be the core of this group of people.

Lance is very happy. He needs strength now to leave this city! But he is not a fool. He has no chance of leaving the royal capital because of his power! Even if he really escapes by luck, his identity as the third prince and his strength must be like a shit attracting flies and he will be in constant trouble!

So he needs power. Since he doesn't count on the power of the demons, these humans have become his first choice at this stage! These are human captured on the battlefield. It is impossible for them to cooperate with the demons. They are the only ones who can help him!

However, the premise is how to fool them into his own camp.
