The basement of the Customs House, the third floor, is the darkest and dampest black prison.

The ten-foot-wide passage is flanked by heavy granite cells.

The steel fence the size of a baby's arm, the granite walls as thick as three feet, and the damp walls, dripping dew constantly slid down the fat moss.

Some small things such as worms, spiders, and snails, I don't know how they got here, and they are very happy to crawl around on the moss.

In the cells closest to the staircase leading to the second basement floor, groups of ragged men and women could not be distinguished in the dim light, and they could not see tall and short, fat and thin people curled up on the ground, lifeless as dead people.

I don't know which cell it is, someone cried bitterly: "I didn't smuggle, I am not a smuggler, I am wronged......"

Then, suddenly, a roar with a bit of irritability sounded: "Shut your mouth, or I'll kill you right now!" ”

This irritable voice came from the darkest cells at the end of the deep passage.

Compared to the poignant, feeble cry, the irascible roar was full of breath and a loud voice, and it was evident that he had not been imprisoned here for a few days.

"Haha, shout, shout, no matter how fierce it is...... When you enter here, you can't get out just like us......"

"Yes, yes, you can't get out, no matter how fierce you are, hey, you will all be here, die here!"

"These damn fur seals, they can't let you out unless they drain all your oil and water...... You don't look like a rich man, no matter how fierce you are, you will die! ”

Inside the cells, lifeless prisoners clamor and laughed loudly at the irascible roaring man.

At this moment, there was a sound of 'bang', the sound of iron chains rubbing against the iron door came, and the cell door from the second basement to the third floor was opened, and in the dense footsteps, several fat-headed and big-eared policemen held torches and poured into the third dungeon with the guards and soldiers of the Weitu family.

A fat white man with a bronze helmet and two shining bronze stars on his epaulettes, with the rank of second-class sergeant, held his torch high and laughed out loud with great merry.

"Respected citizens of the Empire, or friends from friendly neighbors, you have suffered!"

"Praise be to the merciful Mutesthe, the light of the law of fairness and justice, which has finally illuminated this dark prison!"

"In the name of the law, on behalf of the Port Tulum Police Department, on behalf of the honorable Chief Joe, I declare to you that you are free!"

"As long as you are willing to act as witnesses to accuse the port of Tulum of all kinds of illegal or inhumane acts, as long as there is a reason, you will be given precious freedom, as well as a certain amount of compensation."

"Now, please cooperate with us in our registration process. Please state your name, nationality, home address, occupation, when and for what charges you were innocently imprisoned here, and you will soon be able to leave here. ”

The white and chubby police officer smiled enthusiastically, and his smile was extremely relatable.

In the cells near the door, groups of walking dead prisoners stayed for a while, and then, almost at the same time, they jumped to their feet, squeezed to the door like madmen, and stretched out their arms frantically through the cracks in the fence.

"Help, I'm innocent!"

"I didn't smuggle, I didn't smuggle!"

"Robbers, they're a bunch of robbers. They confiscated my goods and they took my daughter! ”

"I want to accuse, I want to accuse, I am an artist of the Gallic Republic, a well-known artist, I am not a smuggler, I am not a stowaway! They snatched my passport and snatched my traveler's checks! ”

The white and chubby police officer put away his smile and looked at the arms stretched out from the cell door with a look of hatred and indignation.

"Heartbreaking, heartbreaking! Lawlessness, simply lawlessness! Is there still a heavenly principle? Is there still morality? It's a moral depravity, merciful Mutesta, these silverfish of the Empire, they all deserve to be on the gallows! ”

"Please rest assured, please cooperate with the registration, please think about their charges quickly...... Please hurry up and think more about their crimes, the more serious the crimes, the more we can vent our anger to everyone...... You can't leave out their three or five hundred charges, let them die too easily! ”

There was an uproar in the cell, and countless prisoners who were a little smarter instantly understood the meaning of the cute white and chubby police officer in front of them.

For a moment, in the light of the torches, this chubby police officer, like a benevolent Mutheste, came to earth, full of love and benevolence!

It is true that, judging from the outline of the appearance alone, this chubby police officer looks like the round face of Mucheste on a mid-autumn night!

At this moment, at the end of the passage of the cell, in the darkest area, there were more than a dozen loud explosions at the same time. It was the loud thud of the cell door being slammed open and the steel fence hitting the granite door frame.

There was even a piercing sound of metal twisting, and the mere hearing of this sound made one imagine that there was a large and powerful hand that grasped the steel fence, and the steel bar the thickness of the baby's arm twisted and deformed under his powerful palm, and he wailed and moaned in an overwhelming way......

'Whew'!

A foul wind came from the end of the passage.

Rage, savagery, like wolves on the plateau, exuding a suffocating aura.

Several dim oil lamps in the passage suddenly went out, and with a low roar, more than a hundred figures rushed out from the end of the passage.

They turned into a violent wind, and rushed from the end of the passage in a few breaths, and the air in the passage was squeezed and compressed because of their wild running, turning into a real air explosion, which hit the bodies of several policemen heavily.

Chubby, round, but ineffective with little fighting power, a few policemen spurted blood, flew out like leather balls, wailed and crashed against the wall behind them, and then fainted resolutely and decisively.

More than a dozen guards of the Vetu family followed behind them, and more than two dozen soldiers who followed closely behind, they instinctively raised their guns, but they didn't have time to pull the trigger, and the figures that rushed like wolves quickly overwhelmed them.

The piercing sound of fractures frightened the noisy prisoners to shut up, and the guards and soldiers were broken bones, spitting blood, and falling to the ground like garbage by violent hammers.

More than 100 figures rushed out of the prison door, and then clashed directly along the passage of the black prison on the second underground floor, easily defeating dozens of Weitu's guards and elite soldiers along the way.

Immediately after, they rushed to the black prison on the first underground floor, where nearly a hundred subordinates and elite soldiers of the Weitu family gathered in the passage, and they had already heard the painful cries of their own companions in the cells below, and when these more than 100 figures who had escaped from the prison rushed up, they had already lined up in a neat three-tier salvo line.

Hundreds of flintlock rifles fired in a volley, and the dull sound of shooting shook the passage with a 'boom', and the frightened screams of prisoners were heard from the cells on either side.

More than a dozen knife lights flickered, and the dense knife light flooded the passage, and hundreds of large-caliber lead bullets roared away, and then most of the lead bullets were split into two pieces by the knife light, and fell to the ground weakly.

A low cry of pain was heard, and only a dozen buckshot shots hit the enemy.

Rushing to the front of several figures, a large ball of blood spurted out, several people staggered, and two fell to the ground, rolling forward a few times in embarrassment.

The other two men who had been shot let out a low roar, their muscles squirming rapidly, and several projectiles more than two inches into the flesh fell to the ground with a few 'bells', and they screamed in pain and rushed forward with their sabers.

"Retreat, retreat!" The soldiers who entered the first floor of the underground black dungeon were greeted by several second lieutenant officers who roared in unison, and then they dropped their rifles, drew their swords at their waists, and brazenly won against the enemies who were rushing head-on.

"Fight to the death!" A second lieutenant with a delicate face and an age of about twenty years old waved his sword, and a fierce cold light with a piercing whistling sound rushed towards the sword light falling in front of him.

The swords collided together, and in the piercing crash, large sparks flew in all directions.

It was just a stagger, and there were more than a dozen wounds on the bodies of several ensign officers who rushed forward, and even a few wounds directly cut the ribs on their chests, broke into their bodies, and damaged their internal organs.

The leaders of the two or three Vetu guards let out a long roar, and they quickly retreated with their companions.

As they retreated, a dozen or so guards of the Wittu family pulled fist-sized straw paper bags out of their pockets and threw them at the enemy in front of them.

The light of the knife flickered, the straw paper package was smashed, a large piece of lime was sprinkled, and the small half of the passage suddenly became white.

The eyes, mouths, and noses of several men rushing to the front were full of quicklime, and they let out angry howls at the same time, and some of them roared angrily: "Close your eyes, hold your breath, and rush out!" ”

"Don't fight, rush out, rush out...... Dispersed and evacuated, one team went to base three, team two went to base five, and three pairs went to base nine. Another cold voice hissed: "Unless I order it, you are not allowed to contact each other, you are not allowed to contact each other!" ”

A wounded second lieutenant who fell to the ground roared loudly with all his strength: "Foreign troops enter, foreign troops enter...... Imperial Army, hold them off, hold them off! Kill them at any cost! ”

Powerful enemies rushed through the passage and rushed to the staircase leading to the ground at the end of the passage.

Outside the cell door at the end of the stairs, a high-pitched roar was heard: "The glory of the Deren Empire is inviolable!" For the Empire, for the Empress, for the Imperial Army, charge! ”

Seven or eight men burst out of the cell door, pulling out the short guns hanging from their waists, and as soon as they showed their heads, they shot indiscriminately.

Outside the prison gate, in the open-air square in the middle of the hollow-shaped building of the Customs Building, more than 200 soldiers were already in full array, and as soon as they saw the figures appear, they fired a volley.

The sound of gunfire alarmed Joe, who was waiting outside, and he roared and rushed into the building with his teeth and the rest of the family's best hands.
