Chapter 1049 Underground Orphans (2)

So what would Teddy Rose's desire be?

"Do you want it?" Rob asked.

The human child nodded quickly.

"What's your name?" Rob asked.

"Ike." The human child responded very quickly.

"How come it is here?"

Ike hesitated a little and said timidly: "I...we live here."

Living here? ‘We’? Rob’s heart moved.

He handed the jerky in his hand to Little Ike, stood up and looked into the darkness of the canal.

Little Eke's piece of jerky meat as big as his entire face, swallowed hard, and the sound of swallowing was so loud that it was very clear in the quiet waterway.

However, he did not eat the jerky meat at the first time, but carefully held it in his arms, then stared at Rob with his bright big eyes.

Rob took a step and walked deep into the canal. Seeing this, Roliness and Dourodo hurriedly followed.

Rob and his party entered such a canal through the entrance connecting the inner city river. This entrance is submerged under the water and without respirators, it is difficult for ordinary humans to enter from that entrance.

Now Ike lives here, and there are more than one person, which means there are other entrances to the waterway leading to the ground.

Ike is too young, and if he can find a companion with him, he should be more familiar with the direction of the canal.

Ike followed Rob quickly and walked a distance. After walking for a while, he even trotted, ran over Rob to a bend in the canal, and turned directly into it.

There was a dark light coming out at the corner.

Rob walked to the corner and saw that there was a small space inside, with a large amount of debris piled up, and a small hole on the top was casting in light, which became the only light source in this space.

A 'bed' formed by some soft debris was laid against the wall. An equally thin figure lay on the bed, and Ike was squatting on the bed at this moment, taking out the jerky meat he was carefully holding from his arms, tearing it into small strips and stuffing it into the mouth of the person on the bed, and kept saying: "Brother, eat, eat."

Lying on the bed was a boy who was about eleven or twelve years old, with the same ragged clothes, thin and extremely weak. Hearing the sound, he tried hard to open his eyes, looking at Rob and others, but his eyes were as alert as a demon wolf on the grassland.

Rolins ran forward, stretched his palms to the little boy's forehead, then pressed his neck and chest. Then he turned his head and said, "It's okay, I'm just hungry. Ike, you can't let him eat hard jerky meat. It's better to cook some meat porridge for him to drink. Can you make a fire here? Is there a pot?"

Hearing the word meat porridge, Ike purred in his throat, but he could only shake his head behind him.

Rob opened the storage ring and found an iron pot and magic crystal furnace. The magic crystal furnace is a specialized heating tool for experiments. It has the advantages of smoke-free, constant temperature, fast temperature rise, and controllable temperature. Although it requires consuming magic crystals, everyone who needs alchemy must prepare several.

This magic crystal furnace is one of the many stoves that Rob swept through the magic tower. It is too useless for food. But in this closed space, the smokeless magic crystal furnace is the most suitable job.

Rolinselle poured water and boiled the dried meat. After a while, the thick broth rolling with dried meat was cooked. The rich fragrance drifted in the closed canal, and even Dourodo couldn't help looking into the pot.

The little boy on the bed was so hungry that he hadn't met Rob and his party, he might have starved to death the next day. Rolins fed him a few bowls of broth, and the little boy fell asleep.

After drinking the broth, Eke even ate several pieces of stewed jerky, and satisfactorily fell asleep in the place that could barely be called bed. Because the stewed broth was made of the meat provided by Rob, the piece given to him was still in his arms, so Little Eke slept very sweetly with his own jerky.

More than two hours later, the little boy woke up. He ran to the pot of stewing meat and could eat all the hot broth and meat in one breath. Before, Rolins just fed him a few bowls of broth, and at the same time he thought carefully that he would be more hungry after waking up, so he kept these for him in the pot.

After eating the things in the pot, he looked up at Rob and others, and finally walked to Rob, knelt down on one knee, said nothing, and stared at Rob in a steady manner.

Rob always felt that the little boy in front of him looked like a demon wolf on the grassland, full of wildness, and his personality was also very strange. When he woke up, he knelt in front of him without saying a word. What does this mean? Rob tilted his head in confusion.

After entering human society, Rob liked to observe those intelligent creatures. Roliness and the kitten girl were both objects of observation. He carefully observed the other person's behavior and then thought about the reason for this behavior. Because this is his necessary knowledge to integrate into human society.

After careful observation during this period, he roughly understood and knelt down to express his meaning of surrender and surrender, but kneeling on one knee and kneeling on both knees seem to be a little different. At least the difference is different, Rob hasn't figured it out yet.

Now this human boy kneels on one knee to him, does it mean to surrender? But isn’t the emotion that should be caused by pressure? He coaxed and scared before, and finally asked Durodo to offer a blood contract to him, but now he has not intimidated the other party. Why did this human kneel down to him?

Humans are really complex creatures... Rob couldn't help but think similar in his mind.

"Your name." Rob's speech was actually very strange. He could only express all the questions in a statement tone. However, this expression, coupled with his tone, showed an extremely majestic effect.

"Jimmy." The little boy replied in a hoarse voice, sounding like he was roaring.

Hearing his voice, Rolins sitting next to him trembled in his heart. Whether it was Jimmy or Ike, in the common human terms, it was actually equivalent to a cat or a dog. Among the ten pet cats or dogs, seven of them were named such names. The two little guys with such a humble name were obviously orphans without parents and were often bullied. But Jimmy's voice sounded so powerful. How strong is this little boy?

"You are familiar with this place," Rob asked.

"Familiar, from birth to now, I can know where every road leads with my eyes closed," Jimmy said affirmatively.

"You can go out of the city." Rob wants to know this question the most. He doesn't know how powerful Teddy Ross is in Black Iron City, but he can say "notify him to the Magic Guild or Alchemy Society of the Black Iron City", which means that he has a certain relationship in at least the two associations. If Rob runs out of the ground and is seen by some people and notifies Teddy Ross, he will be in trouble.

The safest way is to directly lead to the outside of the city through the underground canal. No matter how big the relationship between Teddy Ross is, it is impossible to monitor the entire outside of the city.

Jimmy's eyes moved and hesitated for a moment, but he looked up at Rob, and the hesitation in his eyes disappeared. He just nodded with certainty: "Yes, someone is taking over, Ike and I can't get along, but you're fine."
