Chapter 155: The Night of the Jade Shatter 3
"Warden Cook! Oh no, it's haunted!"
The door to the conference hall was slammed open by a panicked prison guard, who even violated the ban on breaking into the chamber in order to convey this urgent message.
Cook, who had his back to everyone in the hall, slowly turned his head, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly when he heard the news, and there was murderous intent in his cold eyes.
"What's the panic?!" said Snake the White Snake man quietly, "Calm down, what's going on outside?"
The sudden change disrupted the original proceedings, and everyone present waited for the prison guard to give a reasonable explanation.
"It's those... Those dead corpses are 'resurrected!'" The jailer gasped as he trembled and stretched out his finger in the western direction of the Sea Prison, "They all seem to come from the cold room, and those zombie-like creatures rush to bite at the sight of living creatures, without the slightest breath of the living." ”
"What you said is true?!" Cook slapped his face gloomily, "Scum out of the cold room?!"
"That's right, Master Cook," the guard fell to his knees with a thud as his legs went limp, "and by the time I came to report the situation, five or six of the guards had already had their carotid arteries bitten by the living dead, and I even saw among the living dead..."
"What do you see?!"
"I saw a few people covered in animal hair..."
Before the prison guard could finish his words, he saw Cook, who was standing on a high place, suddenly leap up like a vulture, and his whole body was wrapped in colorful clothing, and for some reason he swooped down quickly, and a pair of eagle claw hands choked the prison guard's throat.
Then, in the astonished gaze of everyone in the council chamber, a crisp sound of bones shattering sounded, and the jailer didn't even realize what was happening, and his head drooped down, his hat rolled to the side, and the jailer's eyes gradually diluted, obviously not alive.
"Warden Cook, what are you doing here?!"
Gagarin was outraged by this random mutilation of his subordinates' lives, so he stepped forward and tried to stop Cook's actions.
"Squadron Leader Gagarin!" Kukra looked at Gagarin out of the corner of his eye, "I hope you can figure out that this is an internal matter of our Sea Boundary Prison, as for why I don't need to explain to you at all, I will give the family of this prison guard a death pension, do your job well and don't meddle in it." ”
Throwing the prison guard's body to the ground, Cook took out his handkerchief and wiped his hands.
Gagarin's fist under the silver armor was clenched tightly and slowly released, and after a gloomy glance at Cook's arrogant and domineering back, Gagarin still chose to walk back to his original position.
"Snake, Venom. ”
Cook whispered the names of his two men as he walked towards the top of the chamber.
"My lord, what do you command? ”
The long-haired man with the white snake on his back was the first to respond, and then the tall man in the gas mask also walked out, carrying a can of bubbling green liquid behind him, presumably the burly guy was "Venom".
"You two go and take care of the living dead," Cook turned to look down at the two of them, "remember, some secrets can only be left in the Sea Prison. ”
"Hehe, don't worry!"
Snake chuckled twice, and from Cook's eyes, he had already grasped the purpose of this operation.
The large, white, green-patterned serpent climbed down Snap's chest, and since it reached the ground, it has been "growing" at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In a short time, the white snake had grown to a length of more than ten meters, as thick as a bucket, with dangerous fangs looming in the dark purple mouth, and the blue-eyed snake pupils the size of a bowl stared at everyone except Snake, and the visual impact and sense of oppression brought by the huge body made everyone present look sideways.
"Venom, let's go. ”
Glancing defiantly at Zeta next to him, Snake turned over and came to the back of the white serpent, and the harsh sound of the snake's scales as thick as iron armor scraping the ground sounded, and soon Snake and Venom, who were riding the serpent, left the conference hall and entered the Shura field.
"For the rest of you, wait with me for the Raven Order, I'm more interested in the living challenger than the inanimate dead. ”
Ripping off the collar of his colorful dress, Cook laughed twice and sat back in his place.
Zeta didn't say anything, just the mini-communication device in his headset kept flashing green dots, and he recorded the conversation in its entirety.
The rain outside the window was more urgent, the curved arc of electricity danced in the clouds, and from the sky down, you could see that there seemed to be some huge creature fighting around the cold room of the Sea Boundary Prison, and there were blood-red traces everywhere, and in the midst of the torches, there were constantly shadows pouring into the stagnant water, and there were constantly shadows rising up from the mud, and the chaotic scene made people's scalps tingle.
Beneath the thunderclouds, a large bird-shaped shadow was soaring over the western part of the Sea Boundary Prison, flying towards the calmer eastern part of the prison with lightning as a background.
"Whoosh. ”
Two swift figures tossed and turned in the dense forest outside the old city of Xinlan City, the sea fog was gradually washed away by the torrential rain, and by the faint thunder, the outline of the sea prison in the distance could be clearly seen.
The dense cold rain kept beating on Al and Li Shiyi's bodies, and their originally dry clothes were also wet, but the two of them didn't care about these at all, and from the flickering torches on the prison wall, they could tell that something unexpected must have happened in the Sea Boundary Prison.
"Senior brother, it's been an hour now, I'm afraid Mr. Conrad has already told Cook that guy about the raid on the Sea Prison tonight, and we still haven't been able to help Dorothy dissuade her brother. ”
The fire jet from the "Steel Bone" evaporated the rain around him, and with the blessing of the extreme explosive power of his left arm, he also increased the forward speed of El to the maximum.
This may be his fate, for the sake of his beloved relatives, this is the path he chose. ”
Li Shiyi, who was wearing a black knife at his waist, was expressionless, Lin Ye brushed his clothes, and the rain slid down his cheeks.
The two of them didn't even have time to change out of their waiters' uniforms, but they both tacitly didn't ask each other what they had encountered in the illusion, after all, no one wanted to go through that painful memory a second time.
"Huh?"
Li Shiyi, who was hurrying forward, suddenly let out a soft sigh, and then took advantage of the dark night to stop on the top of a large tree, staring at the dim deep forest.
"What's wrong? Aware of the sense of crisis, Al looked around, and there was nothing but the sparse sound of beating leaves through the forest.
"You go first, leave me alone," Li Shiyi said to Al behind him, "Bypass the rocky area on the right, with Teacher Duoduo here, you should be able to enter the Sea Boundary Prison easily." ”
"What about you?"
"There is a strong opponent waiting for me in the woods ahead, you go quickly, I will cover you. ”
"I can stay and help you. ”
Al came to Li Shiyi's side and stood side by side with him.
"Al," Li Shiyi looked directly at Al with a pair of deep black eyes, "There are more important things waiting for you to do, if you can, try to find them before the group of people in the sea realm prison, even the top assassins of the Raven Organization will not be able to retreat when facing the imperial capital where the strong are gathered, it is not worth exchanging jade for tiles, with the support of Max's family background, plus our mediation with the royal family, there will definitely be a more secure way to rescue Dorothy and the other nuns." ”
"Well, I see," Al nodded heavily, "Senior brother, I'll be waiting for you in the Sea Prison. ”
With that, Al grabbed a thick branch in his left hand and jumped towards the rocky area pointed out by Li Shiyi, the forest wind whistled into his ears, according to what Li Shiyi said, Al didn't care about everything that happened along the way, all he had to do was speed up, and then speed up.
And Al's back was completely handed over to Li Shiyi, just like two soldiers who fought bloodily on the battlefield, and each other was the one who could rest assured that he would entrust his back to each other.
As soon as he rushed out a distance of about 100 meters, Al felt a sharp sword aura shoot out from the dense forest on the left, and the dangerous aura pierced the tree trunk and the rain curtain, and with a sharp voice, he wanted to take Al's life.
However, Al did not make any defensive moves, and even raised the flamethrows of the "Steel Bone" to a higher limit again, and the speed was even higher.
Just when the sword qi with cherry blossom debris was about to arrive at Al's side, in an instant, the black knife swept through the air, breaking through the wind, and a sword light containing black mist directly shattered the cherry blossom sword qi, and the remaining sword shadow even cut two large trees as thick as one person neatly in two.
With a slight sigh of relief, Al knew that it was Li Shiyi who made a move, he didn't stop, and in the blink of an eye, the bright red flame disappeared into the dense forest.
The young man wearing the Shura mask fell from the sky, standing proudly in the forest, the black knife in his right hand had been unsheathed and swallowing black mang, the long-lost Shura mask condensed and gathered on Li Shiyi's cheeks again, the flying mask eyebrows were surrounded by floating black gas, and the two pupils were dark red mist flashing, faintly flowing with brilliance, it was obvious that today's Shura mask was more powerful and mysterious than before.
At the moment when Li Shiyi had just set up, he couldn't help but say that another cherry blossom sword qi stabbed from the shadows, faster and sharper than the previous one, and the sword qi cut off the silky rain and pointed directly at Li Shiyi's chest.
The long knife rotated and changed, and in a moment the black knife in Li Shiyi's hand turned into a reverse grip posture, using the knife as a shield, Li Shiyi put the black knife against his chest, and almost at the same time, the cherry blossom sword qi violently hit the black knife, the blade was bent in reverse, and the sound of metal humming in all directions.
Raising his hand to deflect the blade, the sword qi that had not completely dissipated passed sideways against Li Shiyi, directly piercing the big tree under Li Shiyi's feet, and the broken sawdust flew all over the sky, and Li Shiyi also took advantage of this to fly up and fall on the trunk of the tree that was broken to the ground.
"The 'Sakura Thorn' in the "Tale of the Instrument Worker's Name" ranks among the star workers. ”
Picking up a cherry blossom petal falling from the sky between his fingers, Li Shiyi recognized the name of this famous sword.
"Click, click..."
A string of footsteps in the rain sounded from the dark forest not far in front of Li Shiyi, and after a while, a white-haired young man with a white long sword on his shoulder walked out, the beautiful sword of "Sakura Thorn" was stained with fragrant rain, and the K of spades tilted his head and looked at Li Shiyi with an unhappy face.
"Hey, your knife is good, I want it. ”
"Try it. ”
The two teenagers stared at each other, neither of them took the lead, letting the cold rain fall between the two, the broken leaves of the cherry blossoms drifting with the flowing water, the sword was shaking lightly, and the sword was roaring.
After a moment of hesitation, a thunderbolt suddenly exploded in the sky, and in an instant, two figures, one black and one white, cut through the rain curtain and rushed towards each other.
