Chapter 339: Prison Restlessness
Southridge Prison.
In the open space in front of the prison door, the space suddenly seemed to ripple spontaneously. The spark splattered out of the concussive space, gradually tearing open a golden circular rift.
Michael, dressed in a black trench coat, walked slowly out of the spell portal, Wanda following him in a black casual suit. As soon as the two walked out, the portal swirled together, and the space quickly returned to its original appearance.
This time, they came to the prison as "senior agents of the top secret department", so they were all in civilian clothes. Daisy originally wanted to come, but her body had just recovered, her strength had not yet fully recovered, and the mysterious level of power involved in this incident was not suitable for her to deal with, so she went directly back to the headquarters to rest at Michael's request.
Eli Morrow, that's who they plan to meet on this trip. Eli was also a member of Dr. Lucy's research team, and even played a very important role. When the team first succeeded in developing a machine with forbidden powers, and unanimously decided to try to use the device to give Joseph the power to transcend the laws in the next experiment, Eli was the only one who objected.
Eli insisted that it was against the laws of nature, and insisted that it was too dangerous to use that kind of power rashly. He asked Dr. Lucy to produce the Dark Book so that everyone could study it together and decide what to do next, and this request was naturally rebuffed.
In fact, no third person in the entire think tank team, apart from Dr. Lucy and her husband Joseph, had ever seen the book in its true form, let alone delved into its contents. Joseph is the boss of the team, and Dr. Lucy is the real person at the helm of their research. All of them were just following Dr. Lucy's instructions and completing the task step by step, but they didn't know the knowledge and principles contained in the book.
Eli says it nicely, but in reality he doesn't care about the consequences of breaking the taboo. The only thing he cared about was that it wasn't himself who would gain the power of the gods after the experiment was successful.
That's why he attacked the rest of the team and tried to kill them with the unfinished machine, and then swallowed the Dark Book to gain that power himself. It turned out to be a little different from what he had planned, and instead of killing the others, the machine turned them into ghosts and sealed them in those metal crates, which were only recently accidentally released.
And the Book of Darkness did not fall into Eli's hands as expected. Years ago, Eli plotted that the others had turned them into ghosts, and then violently beat Joseph to ask about the whereabouts of the Dark Sacred Book, but Joseph did not tell him the truth until the end. Eli has since been imprisoned in Southridge Prison, while Joseph has been in a hospital bed unconscious in a vegetative state for years.
Eli Morrow was the most evil person in the whole affair, if you count it. Although Dr. Lucy and Joseph were blinded by the book because of their temperament and the book of darkness, the power of the book was irresistible. Eli had never seen the book with his own eyes, but he made no secret of his greed for power, and even did not hesitate to plot against his friends to make them end up in this person's unhuman and ghostly end.
If there had to be someone in the whole thing who played the role of a demon, that person would have to be Eli.
The door of Nanling Prison was strangely empty, stretching from the open space in front of it all the way to the closed gate, all the way was empty, even the sentry in front of the gate was empty.
The situation is clearly not normal.
Wanda flipped in her hand, crimson ripples shattered the lock, and the door creaked open before they could get closer, as if it had opened for them spontaneously. When they entered the prison, they were greeted by a scene that could only be described as ...... It's chaos.
The whole prison was completely in chaos. The shouts that almost broke through the roof erupted like a tidal wave the moment they pushed the door, and a fiery scene followed. Every door and cage in the prison was opened, and all the criminals were released to attack anyone around them indiscriminately as if they were crazy. The guards were in a similar state of madness, mingling with the criminals in hand-to-hand combat. Everyone screamed, using their hands and feet together, and even wanted to bite everyone in sight with their teeth, and their eyes were full of madness...... There is also a deep fear.
It's just a group of demons dancing.
Although he knew that even if everyone in this prison went up together, it would not be possible to hurt him in the slightest, but such a crazy formation still scared Wanda a little. She took a half-step back, unconsciously hiding half of her body behind Michael.
Michael frowned: "Is it too late?" ”
Daisy, who is infected in this state, and several gang members at the dock are very similar, and it is very likely that those "ghosts" have already been here before them. Prepare for the worst, and maybe even the person they're looking for has already been preempted by the other party.
Michael pressed the headset: "Shirley, find the location of the prisoner's cell for me Eli Morrow, and then voice tell me how to get there." ”
"Connecting to the prison management system, please wait...... Well, it's just ahead, not far from place. You need to turn right at the end of this road. ”
Michael stepped forward as if no one was around, his hands still in his trench coat pockets, completely oblivious to the chaotic mess of criminals in front of him. Wanda hurried after him.
The approaching two rightfully attracted the attention of the criminals in the field. The criminals who were a little closer came around screaming, and there were three people at the front, two of them dancing with steel pipes and crowbars, and one of them was bare-handed, but he was five big and three thick, and his bare upper body was full of muscles.
Michael still ignored them, and continued to meet their attack without blinking, as if he were unaware. Wanda stepped forward and handed out her right palm, and a cloud of crimson magic blasted out of her small palm like a raging tsunami. Crimson waves swept across the corridor in an instant, rolling up all the jailers and criminals in their path, and they were swept to both sides of the road in the waves, and fell to the side of the road in piles. Moans came and went for a while.
The crimson waves stirred up the air currents that lifted the corners of the trench coat, and Michael was expressionless the whole time, only continuing to calmly walk through the corridor that was cleaned by Wanda. Wanda followed him.
The two walked through the corridor unhindered. Until they came to the corner at the end, a hateful, translucent phantom slowly emerged from the wall, with vicious killing intent in its eyes, locked on the two of them.
Wanda's pupils shrank, as if she suddenly sensed something. She exclaimed, "Be careful", and subconsciously turned in front of Michael. The ghost that shot out like lightning slammed into her body, and half of her body was gone!
