Chapter 270: The Secret Passage Behind the Wall

"This person is really strange!"

As they spoke, the five people noticed Li Meng not far away.

Li Meng's appearance was indeed quite odd.

Dressed in a black robe, with a round head.

It was as if he was performing some magic trick.

A priest in a white robe looked at Li Meng with curiosity.

The women beside her also glanced over at Li Meng.

"We shouldn't stare at others, it's not polite!"

At the archer's words, the four withdrew their gazes.

The traveler, however, curiously examined Li Meng.

"The airship is here!"

At this moment, the female archer pointed at the sky excitedly.

In the distant sky, an airship was gradually approaching.

It suddenly burst through the thick clouds, appearing before the people at the dock.

After a while, the airship continued to descend and slowly approached the dock.

The passenger airship was massive.

It was about 100 meters long, with three masts.

In the eyes of the people at the dock, the airship slowly docked.

As soon as it stopped, a group of dockworkers rushed up.

They placed wide planks against the side of the airship.

After passengers disembarked, new passengers began boarding.

"Upper VIP cabin, Room No. 7!"

The crew member checking tickets looked up at Li Meng in surprise.

Li Meng's peculiar appearance put great pressure on him.

He forced an awkward smile and handed the ticket back.

"Uh... please!"

Li Meng took the ticket and boarded the airship.

Once on board, Li Meng did not linger on the deck and went straight into the cabin.

"No. 17, No. 16... No. 7, here it is!"

Following the cabin number on the ticket, Li Meng found his room.

He pushed open the door and entered.

Although it was a VIP cabin, the space inside was not large.

Just a bed, a narrow aisle, and a window.

"The view is nice."

Standing by the window, Li Meng admired the scenery outside the city.

Outside the city lay farmland, with lush green wheat fields stretching out.

In the distance, a larger village could be seen.

A canal meandered through the village, stretching into the distance.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

At this moment, the door was knocked.

Li Meng, who was leaning by the window, twitched slightly.

"Come in."

Li Meng remembered the door was not locked.

With a "click," the door opened.

A graceful figure entered.

She wore a purple robe and had dark brown hair cascading down to her hips.

It was Auriana, Enzos' wife.

Li Meng had seen the couple at the dock when they boarded.

Since the dock was crowded, they had not interacted much.

"Master!"

Looking at the black-robed figure in front of the bed, Auriana's eyes showed a trace of fear.

She slightly lowered her head.

With both hands lifting her long skirt, she curtsied.

"Hmm, what is it?"

Li Meng turned to look at Auriana.

Auriana froze for a moment and shook her head.

"I... I just came to say hello!"

"I remember saying that I would contact you when I needed you."

Li Meng originally did not intend to have much interaction with the couple on the ship.

Everyone would act like strangers, going their separate ways.

Otherwise, if something happened and he was wanted by human nations, the couple would definitely be dragged into trouble.

Auriana's face turned pale, and she hastily knelt on the ground.

"I... I didn't forget, it's just..."

If she pretended not to know him and ignored him, would the master be angry?

Out of fear of being misunderstood, she came to see him.

Looking at Auriana's curvy figure, Li Meng's mind wandered.

This woman had a body like a ripe peach.

Such full curves would be irresistible to any man.

But Li Meng was not human; he was a goblin.

"Go back."

"Y-yes!"

Auriana stood up.

She turned, swaying her hips, and walked out with her head lowered.

Watching Auriana's plump figure, a trace of greed flashed in Li Meng's eyes.

The goblin's natural desires made it hard for him to resist.

"Come to me tonight."

Auriana trembled slightly at the door.

"Y-yes!"

She bowed her head and closed the door.

Then she turned and hurried away.

Only after she was far from the room did Auriana sigh in relief.

Thinking about her master's request to come to him tonight,

Auriana's face showed a trace of shyness.

A man and a woman alone in a room—how could she not know what would happen?

However, Enzos had told her that before she regained consciousness, the master had done many things to her.

And those things had awakened Enzos.

Since they already had that relationship, Auriana did not mind too much.

It was not easy for her and Enzos to survive.

Although they were still not free,

They had to be even more cautious in the future.

About two hours later, the passenger airship departed.

There was no roar of engines, only the sound of wind howling.

Standing by the window, Li Meng felt the ship tremble.

The airship slowly ascended and began flying forward.

The distance from the ground grew greater.

Soon, they were thousands of meters above the ground.

Outside the window, clouds suddenly surrounded them.

A few minutes later, the clouds cleared.

The view opened up.

At thousands of meters above the clouds, the airship flew steadily.

Time passed bit by bit, and a day quickly went by.

When the sun set and night fell,

The passenger airship was brightly lit.

In the upper and lower cabins, there was lively chatter.

Passengers gathered in small groups to chat.

It was the only way to pass the time.

In Li Meng's room, the atmosphere was similarly intense.

Heavy breathing filled the air.

Suddenly, the room fell silent.

"Master, what's wrong?"

Li Meng, who was on top of Auriana, got up.

Auriana hurriedly pulled her robe up from her waist.

Li Meng sniffed the air and walked to the wall.

He knocked lightly.

The sound was hollow, with an echo.

Li Meng ran his fingers along the wall.

Suddenly, his fingers felt a groove.

Li Meng pulled it outward, and a wooden door opened.

As the wooden door opened, a foul stench hit them.

"Master! What is this?"

Dressed again, Auriana covered her nose and curiously looked at the passage behind the wooden door.

She had not expected such a secret passage to exist on a passenger airship.

Li Meng crouched down and peeked into the passage.
