Chapter 204: Prison of the Supervision Department
Paris only felt a sharp pain in his back, but before he could react, the killer's second attack had arrived, and the snow bright knife light was unstoppable at him, Paris's eyes widened and he grabbed the gendarme next to him and blocked him in front of him.
He was awakened by the crisp sound of a blade, like cutting a rotten piece of wood, and the gendarme's body was instantly cut in two, and the hot blood was sprinkled on Paris's face with the rain, and he was awakened and desperately pushed away from the crowd to escape in the direction of the convoy.
The killer followed closely behind Paris, who apparently already knew who he was.
Several guards rushed forward to stop the killer's advance, but the head was cut off by the other party, and the headless body fell to the ground weakly.
"Protect your lordship, protect your lord!" shouted loudly in the darkness, and the guards surrounded Paris, the inner and outer three layers of terrain became a wall, and pointed their shiny spears at the outside.
In the dark, it looked like someone was shrriggling.
The guards tensed their muscles, keeping an eye out for any direction to prevent the killer from suddenly appearing.
But soon a scream rang out.
The guards heard the terrible screams coming from behind them, and subconsciously turned their heads, only to see Paris clutching his abdomen, blood gushing between his fingers, and the whole person fell to the ground and spasmed.
That's impossible!
How could the Inspector General be attacked when we were under our tight protection?
The guards were stunned.
A cloud of mist-like gas slowly condensed into the shape of a human in the distance, looking at Paris, who was still not dead, he sighed a little unwillingly, he hesitated to observe the target that was densely protected by the guards, and did not choose to continue to attack, but hid in the darkness.
The same method did not work the second time.
......
The priests and paladins avoided the chaotic battlefield and headed straight for the black prison in the depths of the Inspectorate, and on the way, a soldier hurried past them, stopped in front of them and asked, "Who are you?
But in response to him was a punch.
"It seems to be a little too strong...... "The priest looked at the guy who was punched by the paladin to the point that his head was shattered, and sighed with some sympathy: "Let's go." ”
The tunnels of the underground prison were long, oppressive, damp and filled with a disgusting stench, and with the help of the torches on the walls, the priest saw a squad guarding the prison approaching him.
The team had just received the news of an emergency in the base camp, and had already equipped all the weapons and was ready to rush to the rescue, but they did not expect that in the middle of the night, the prison would welcome two uninvited guests.
"Please stay," the priest asked politely, "Does anyone know in which room a young man who was arrested that night three days ago was locked up?"
"Get out of here!" the soldier at the head was very unceremonious, and he impatiently pushed the priest's shoulder, "Who let you in? If you don't get out, I'll lock you in too!"
"No manners. The priest shook his head, and the paladin took a step forward and slammed his fist into the chest.
"Boom!" echoed through the deep tunnel for a long time, and when the echo faded away, the soldiers discovered something that made them creepy about it.
The soldier who had been shot in the chest by the paladin had completely collapsed, his back bulging high, and even his ribs were cracked and punctured, leaving him naked in the air.
"Now, can anyone tell me where he's being held?"
"Report ...... Report, the prisoner, the warden...... I had personally instructed that he was a particularly important person, and he was locked up in the second prison in the deepest part of the tunnel, where there was a gate, and the key was in the warden's hand, and we could not open it at all......" The frightened soldier stepped forward tremblingly, not daring to look at the priest's face, and told him all that he knew.
"Where's the warden?"
"When I went home and went to bed, he said that the inspector would not be able to patrol the prison on a rainy day, so he ......," the soldier said halfway, not daring to continue, "that door would have been almost impossible to open without a key." ”
The priest and the paladin looked at each other and nodded slightly.
"Take us there!"
"Good...... Good. ”
There were a few more screams in the tunnel, and the paladin wiped the blood from his palms, and with a blank expression, he threw aside the bodies of the remaining soldiers, leaving only the soldier who led the way, and raised his chin at him, signaling him to leave immediately.
They are simply demons!
The soldier roared in his heart, his brothers had been slaughtered like this, they didn't even have the slightest ability to resist, the other party was ruthless and tough, what the hell were they looking for that prisoner?
Is it to rob the prison?
The soldier didn't know what the other party was thinking, and he didn't dare to ask more.
There were weak voices of prisoners in the cells on both sides, some of the newly arrested prisoners hid in the corners and wept, while some of the old prisoners had already adapted to it, but when they saw the picture of the soldiers on duty being killed by the paladins, they seemed to suddenly have strength, and they excitedly grabbed the railing and shouted, "Let us out!
Breaking in in the middle of the night and killing the soldier guarding the door has already shown that the other party must have come to save someone.
"Hey, if you want to save people, just let us out! I can create some chaos and help you escape!"
The prisoners were trapped in this cage and suffocated to the point of collapse, and now they see the dawn of escape, how can they give up in vain?
They slammed desperately against the iron railings and locks, trying hard to get the attention of the priests, and the soldiers wiped a cold sweat, many of these prisoners were cruel and tyrannical murderers, and if they did escape, the chaos of the night would be even more difficult to contain.
The priest, who was a little annoyed by the noise, glanced at the prisoners, "Can't you just be quiet?"
"Boom!"
The paladin walked to the door of the noisy cell with a blank face, and there was a middle-aged man inside, with a strong physique, full of power, a scar on his forehead that spread to his lower lip, looking extremely hideous, he looked at the paladin with a cruel smile: "I said, how about opening the door for me?" I will definitely repay you." ”
Without warning, the paladin squeezed his hand holding the railing.
The middle-aged prisoner's face changed, and he immediately felt a heart-rending pain transmitted from the palm of his hand to the various nerve ends of his body, he desperately tried to break free from the other party's grasp, but he felt that his hand was stuck by iron tongs, no matter how hard he tried, the other party did not move.
But that's just the beginning.
With a slight exertion, the thumb-thick iron bars were badly deformed, twisting and tearing open a gap large enough for people to pass through.
Then the paladin poked his palm in.
"Poof!"
It's like the sound of a watermelon being smashed on the ground.
The originally noisy cell fell silent in an instant, and everyone looked at the red and white slime on the paladin's palms, and a burst of cool air surged from the bottom of their hearts, and a few people with almost psychological quality directly hid in the corner and vomited.
"A group of scum, and they still want to return to the outside world......" The priest sneered, he glanced at the soldiers who were a little stunned, and urged dissatisfiedly: "Don't stop!"
......
After walking for about fifteen minutes, the priest felt that the temperature in the tunnel was getting lower and lower, and the cells on both sides of the road were not as full of prisoners as the area he had just passed.
"This is a felony area, and only death row prisoners are held here. Seeing the priest's thoughtful look, the soldier hurriedly explained: "Five hundred meters further on, you will reach your destination." ”
The prisoners in the felony ward were noticeably quieter, no, not quiet, but the numbness of despair to the extreme.
The priest observed the state of the condemned prisoners as he passed through their cells, and the death row prisoners were all lifeless, except for the occasional rolling of their eyes, which meant that they were still alive, and everything else, such as the appearance, felt like an empty shell without a soul.
The priest remembered the pagans who were imprisoned in the temple prison, and they were in this state most of the time.
Life without faith is empty, those heretics have long lost the meaning of life, and continuing to live in the world is only suffering in vain, so he has always advocated the execution of the captured heretics as soon as possible, after all, it is more ceremonial and more solemn than being driven to the battlefield to be cannon fodder, and being burned at the stake.
It's also sublimation in a sense, isn't it?
The priest smiled, and the soldier's footsteps came to an abrupt halt.
"My lord, it's ...... It's here. ”
The priest looked up and looked ahead.
It was only then that he realized the truth of what the soldier had said earlier, that it was almost impossible to open the door without a key.
At the end of the tunnel is a gate about five meters high and four meters wide, made of heavy black iron, covered with spikes and thorns, which is impossible to break by brute force.
"The gate was made in the mechanical workshop of the Golden Castle, and the interior was made of racks and sprockets, and without the key, the gears would jam the locking bolt. The soldier knew everything, fearing that he would suffer the same fate as his companions.
"The craftsmen of the Golden Castle are all rice buckets, what good things can they make......" The priest said with disdain, and stepped forward to observe the gate closely, there was a small hole in the center, which should be the key socket, with the help of the faint firelight, the outline of the internal gear combination could be faintly seen.
"It's a double lock, the kind with a layer of insurance. The priest raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect that the technical level of the craftsmen of the Golden Castle was quite good, and even the double locking function could be successfully developed and manufactured, but he didn't know how practical and anti-vandalism were.
"Damn, if I had brought the tools, I might have tried to remove the broken lock," the priest was a little annoyed, he had also learned the mechanics of the temple and it wasn't too difficult for him to unlock a lock of this level, but because of the rush of the road and the fact that he didn't expect it to happen, he didn't have any of the mechanical tools with him.
"Looks like we can only break it by force!"
"Forcibly?" the soldier was a little stunned, he looked at the spiked iron door, and shivered with fear.
Shouldn't it be for me to be cannon fodder?
