Chapter 35: Escape
The movement of the sea above them made everyone's faces change, but it was good news for the guards who were already seriously injured and dying. At least if these dangerous prisoners can be buried here, they will not become sinners of the Seven Arches.
"Can a rescuer make such a commotion?" After listening to Ying's words, Yu Yi said suspiciously, "I think there are more people who need help now." ”
"The special prisoners I mentioned, they should all be imprisoned here with their strength imprisoned. The Progeria man would naturally break free from his imprisonment in order to use their powers, but who would listen to him after he was released? Shadow looked back at the empty passages of the cell, as if waiting for something to appear.
"That's not going to be that big, is it? The movement sounded like someone had forcibly broken the prison and let the sea water in. Suicide with this temper? You've just been released, right? Who is this? Yu Yi said in wonder, looking at the prisoners around him, their performance was much worse than that of the master and servant here. After all, after being imprisoned for so long, I finally saw the hope of freedom, and now I am naturally even more unwilling to die.
"If you have the ability to directly destroy this rock-solid underground prison, you will naturally have the ability to escape." Shadow said lightly, his face not at all wavering for the trouble that was coming next, "However, for us, we have to make another plan." Besides, you're still a landlubber. ”
The slightly panicked prisoners stopped killing the jailers and guards, and began to use brutal methods to extract from them how to open the exit. In these years of prison life, I don't know if I am good at other skills, but they have learned a lot of these torture methods, and the hard-working jailers will help them review every day.
However, no matter how vicious and vicious their methods were, they still couldn't get the information they wanted. Of course, this is not because of how tough these jailers are, but simply because they don't know how to open the entrance. In order to prevent the jailers from colluding with the prisoners and the like, the seven forces are extremely secretive about the methods of opening the underground prison, and these jailer guards and others have no way to leave the underground unless they are rotated every quarter. To put it bluntly, these jailers are nothing more than prisoners walking outside their cells without shackles.
The prison is located tens of meters below sea level, and if it were breached, there would be no doubt that the sea would immediately entail it. Under the tremendous pressure, the leaking water did not leave them much time, and they poured their power into the prison.
Soon, Yu Yi finally understood what Ying was waiting for in the tunnel over there, although the sea water had not yet arrived, but the noisy sound of the rushing water was enough to explain everything. "Damn! How did it come so quickly? What about the mousse guy? If he doesn't open the exit, we'll all die here. ”
"Do you still count on him? As you can guess, his negotiations with those special prisoners were not very successful. If he was facing those guys, he might not be in a better position than us at this time. Shadow replied calmly, as a mage, even at such a critical juncture, she couldn't be as foolish as the reckless men around her to use brute force to open the exit.
"Ei, what are you going to do?" Looking at the posture of the silver-haired woman, Yu Yi noticed something, "Don't mess around, you don't want to block the sea by yourself, right?" Now you're no longer that battle mage. ”
"It's better than waiting to die." As she spoke, Shadow strode towards the tunnel ahead.
Behind him, Yu Yi chased after Pearl on his back and grabbed her: "Stupid mage, you're just looking for death." ”
"It's my own choice."
Pulling the silver-haired woman in front of him, Yu Yi stared at her eyes and said, "Fart, now you are my contractor, and your life is mine." If I didn't let you die, you weren't allowed to die. Come here! Follow me obediently! ”
Inexplicably, the shadow who has always been tough and assertive, this time he didn't have the slightest intention of refuting in his heart, so he let the other party take his hand and go back step by step. However, the sound of the sea behind him is getting closer and closer, but it is just ...... The sound of the sea seems to be mixed with other sounds.
Yu Yi also discovered this, he turned his head, and after staring for a few seconds, several black shadows broke into his field of vision, and the leader was a rickety figure, a premature aging mousse! I have to admit that this little old man with a face full of ravines, his unsightly appearance and ruthless heart is the person he wants to see the most at this time.
It's just that the little old man's appearance at this time is a little embarrassed, and the previous long battle, including the robbery of prisons and the release of prisoners, has not added any wounds to him. And when he saw him again this time, the little old man was not only ragged and gray-headed, but the most conspicuous thing was the fist mark on the left side of his face, and the red and swollen nose, which made him look a little funny.
Thankfully, he came back before the sea flooded everything, and he didn't seem to have found nothing, at least he had a few more guys in prison uniforms around him. "Those who don't want to die, are ready, follow me out of prison!" He let out a roar and shouted from afar.
"Let's go, we're ready too." Yu Yi was still holding the shadow in one hand, and turned back to Bai Siling and instructed. He had measured the number of prisoners gathered here, and could already guess what the scene would be like for a while, judging by the width of the staircase they had entered earlier, a stampede should have been inevitable.
The two women beside them nodded as well, and their eyes became wary as they looked at the prisoners around them. Even if they don't need to be prompted by the deed owner, they naturally know that under such an emergency escape, there is a competitive relationship between everyone, so it is difficult to say whether they are friends or foes around, not to mention that they are still a group of guys in prison uniforms.
In the blink of an eye, the rickety little old man Mousse had already made his way through the crowd and walked in front of a sealed stone wall. Everyone still has some respect for him, after all, he was the one who robbed the prison, and he was the one who let everyone get here, obviously, he was the only person present who could open the exit.
Almost everyone looked eagerly at the little old man over there, waiting for him to open the exit. It's just that compared to the eagerness of the others, the old man stood against the wall without hurrying, and did not make a move to trigger the mechanism.
"Hey, old man! You can't open the door? Do you want all of us to die here with you? ”
Finally, under the pressure of the sound of the sea behind him, a voice in the crowd couldn't help but urge loudly.
Mousse followed the sound and tilted his face slightly in that direction, but there was no more reaction other than that. He faced everyone and said, "No one wants to die here, I will definitely open the exit." However, what I want to say is that above the ground, the people of the Seven Forces should have reacted at this time, and once we rush out, we will face a fierce battle. Everyone should know this in their hearts, right? ”
"If you have anything to say, hurry up and finish it all at once." There are always people who are anxious to interject.
The little old man nodded: "You are the ones who disobey the seven major forces, and it shouldn't be a request for you to fight them." This battle is a battle in which all of us will be killed and killed, and whether or not we can get rid of the control of the seven major forces is up to us. So, we must unite! I don't want to see some casualties among my own people before the battle starts......"
This sentence made many people's faces sink. Because he wanted to make sure that he didn't drown in the sea and get out of the prison, it seemed that the most effective way to deal with the people who stood in his way seemed to be the most effective way, but at this time, the meaning of the old man's words in front of him was to prohibit such behavior.
"Why should we listen to you? Red-nosed clown! Hurry up and open the exit, or ...... Uh, doom, doom! Before the voice could finish speaking, a warm red fountain erupted from the center of his throat.
The sound of the painful struggle drew everyone's attention to the guy who had just been killed in an instant, and then the old man was wiping his bloody sword with his fingers. For a while, no one dared to say more nonsense. Because of the killing just now, almost none of them saw the old man's movements, and in the face of such a killing star, everyone wisely chose to keep their mouths shut.
"Anyone else has any questions?" Mousse looked down at the sword in his hand and asked seemingly nonchalantly, "Very good, it seems that we have reached a rare agreement." I'll be at the back, stupid people who can try to do a little bit more. With that, his sword swung at the stone wall behind him, and after a crisp blow, the mechanism was triggered.
With a dull sound of movement, and the sound of chains and gears operating, the exit opened in front of everyone. However, for a while, no one dared to rush forward too presumptuously, until the old man shouted: "Go! Everyone seemed to have regained their movements, and rushed towards the exit in unison.
Seeing this, Yu Yi was relieved that there was no such chaotic situation as he imagined, which was really a good thing. After walking a few steps, he heard the shadow whisper in his ear:
"It seems that the thing that just saved people taught that kid a lesson."
Yu Yi naturally understood what that meant, obviously after suffering the loss just now when the Progeria person saved people, now he understands the correct way to negotiate. For these people, saving grace does not necessarily mean surrender. "It's a blessing to suffer a loss, look at the makeup on his face, this blessing is quite enough today."
As soon as the words fell, the two saw the little old man standing next to the exit turn his face to this side, obviously even in the somewhat chaotic situation at this time, the other party could still hear their conversation, Yu Yi couldn't help but secretly admire Ying's choice to communicate on paper before. Even though he knew that the person on the other side was blind, the feeling of being confronted by him made people a little uncomfortable.
The coercive tactics of Progeria Mousse worked well, and in the process of entering the exit staircase, except for a few bad memories who died at first, there was no more quarrel after that. But fortunately, due to the strong desire to survive in everyone's hearts, the speed of the huge team in the stairway was not slow at all.
Behind him, however, the sound of the sea was getting closer. Soon someone in the rear urged out: "The front, fuck faster!" The sea is about to flood! ”
With such a sound sounding, the order of the large army finally got out of control. Faster people in the rear began to rush forward, while those who were not fast in front began to collide with the rear in order not to be abandoned behind the queue.
"If you don't want to die, stop it." Seeing that a riot was about to break out, Mousse's old voice sounded, and for a while, everyone temporarily stopped what they were doing, "Let's go up a distance together, even if we are submerged in the sea, we can swim on the surface of the sea." No one wants to die by my sword before that, right? ”
A grim sentence made the people present only feel that the sharp stabbing sword had been aimed at their necks, and suddenly, the crisis that had just arisen collapsed again. Everyone saved their energy and used it on their legs, and the stairway leading up could already be seen diagonally above the point of light. That little bit of light was the best stimulant at this time, and no one longed to regain access to it more than these prisoners.
"Nordion, be ready to hold my waist."
Yu Yi also saw the light above, and his heart was just light, but he heard the shadow whisper in his ear. He couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" ”
"The sea has arrived."
When the words fell, Yu Yi subconsciously looked back, and sure enough, the current like a fierce beast had already rushed towards everyone. No longer hesitating, pressing Shadow's words, one hand tightened the Pearl on his back, and the other hand held Shadow's waist. For a moment, he could feel a slight tremor in his hand, but the next second it was the sound of the sea filling his ears.
For a landlubber, being completely immersed in the sea water and feeling involuntary is undoubtedly the most terrifying. Subconsciously, he couldn't help but tighten his grip on Ei's hand, and the whole person leaned forward. Fortunately, his mage hero was not a delicate sick mage, he could feel that the two, to be exact, were swimming more or less with the momentum of the sea below.
Immediately after, he felt movement on his back, it was Pearl! He was forcibly opening his eyes in the water with some worry, but what he saw was Pearl swimming beside him as if nothing had happened, and Boss Ling and the black dog did not show any discomfort in the water. 'Together, it's just me a duck... Landlubbers? ’
There was limited space in the stairway, and now, everyone swimming together in the water couldn't help but feel even more crowded. But fortunately, in this case, as long as the water is good, you can directly surpass those slow guys, and you don't have to wait.
Shadow clearly had such intentions, especially after losing Pearl's weight on her body, her arms swung at an accelerated pace and began to pick up speed. Yu Yi, who was almost thrown off because of this, hurriedly tightened his hands on his "life-saving straw", not far away, not far from the water......
