Chapter 143: It makes sense
"You want to know the answer to why I've been locked up for more than seven hundred years?" The underground prison warden looked at Zhou Sen with a smile.
"Yes." Zhou Sen replied honestly.
"I think what you said before is true."
"What?"
"Remember, curiosity kills cats!"
"......" looked at the underground prison warden's serious nonsense, and Zhou Sen was speechless.
"Hahahahaha......" The underground warden burst into a hearty laugh, and he finally let out a bad breath.
"Dear Mr. Underground Prison Director, how old are you?" Zhou Sen interrupted the laughter of the underground prison warden.
"It's almost 800 years old."
"Do you know how old I am?"
"In your early twenties."
"Look at you, you're almost 800 years old, but you're scheming with me, a hairy young man in his twenties, you, you, you've lived in vain! It's been in vain! Zhou Sen got up, shook his head and sighed and left.
“……”
Seeing Zhou Sen shake his head and leave, the underground prison warden almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood.
I've met my opponent.
The underground prison warden gritted his teeth but was helpless, this young man was quick to think, he didn't play cards according to common sense, you mentioned respecting the old, he mentioned loving the young, and he was so bitter and mean that people wanted to die.
Fighting is fighting, and in the next few days, Zhou Sen will still come to the small restaurant every day to inquire about the news.
Now, the inmates in the prison do not know what is going on outside, even some of the miscellaneous servants, because the entire Mogan prison has been put under control, any recreational activities have been canceled, and prison guards and staff are strictly forbidden to work in tandem.
The benefits of the prisoners in the sun were also abolished.
The only thing the prisoners could hear was the loud roar of some heavy machinery outside, day and night, and the occasional roaring and screaming of some animals and the running of mechs.
The small restaurant has become Zhou Sen's only source of information.
After the resignation of Qin Ge and Dr. Ye, Zhou Sen's sources have become increasingly isolated, and their sources have become completely dependent on the underground prison warden. The underground prison director is worthy of being the underground prison director, and he is still well aware of the situation in Mogan Prison.
According to the underground prison director, at present, the mecha troops stationed outside have relocated the camp and relied on the Mogan Prison, and then, using heavy equipment to build a defense line within a few kilometers of the Mogan Prison.
The turret of Mogan Prison was also modified and replaced with a rapid-fire gun with a higher rate of fire.
During this time, various alien creatures will constantly invade Mogan Prison, but the number is not very large, which is why the prisoners can occasionally hear the sporadic roars of fierce beasts.
"Are all those alien creatures different?" Zhou Sen vaguely felt that something was wrong.
"Yes, there are all sorts of them, some weigh twenty tons, some are covered with heavy armor, and some are as fast as lightning...... However, because Mogan Prison had purchased a large number of weapons before, and the mecha troops had built a defense line with heavy equipment in the desert, and many alien creatures were not adapted to the environment of this planet, the prison authorities were still able to cope with it for the time being. ”
"What about the corpses of those beasts before?"
"Isn't it necessary to build a defense line, which happens to be used, first digging a pit in the desert, then burying the corpses of fierce beasts, and then piling sand dunes on top of it, forming a defense line." The underground prison warden may have been imprisoned for a long time, or he may be bored himself, but his patience is very good, and he will answer Zhou Sen's questions.
"When will reinforcements from the Human Federal Government come?"
"Reinforcements?" An odd smile appeared on the face of the underground prison warden.
"What do you mean?"
"You probably can't be as efficient as those officials in the human federal government, and those bureaucrats won't come to a conclusion if they don't discuss things like this for a few months."
"So procrastinating?" Zhou Sen looked surprised.
"Those bureaucrats don't think there is any urgency, because, after mankind entered the interstellar age, it has encountered all kinds of alien creatures, but they all ended in the victory of mankind, and now the report handed over by Mogan Prison also shows that Mogan Prison has passed the crisis and entered a stalemate stage, and those bureaucrats will not take it seriously at all, besides, there is a starfleet in F404 outer space."
"Didn't you say Starfleet wouldn't interfere in the ground defense of F404?"
"Yes, but those bureaucrats don't think so, they just admit that there is an interstellar fleet stationed near this planet, and there is no urgent need for it."
"Okay......" Zhou Sen was secretly happy in his heart, he was really worried that the Human Federal Government would send a large number of troops to be stationed in the F404 star, because his plan was one link after another, and there was no room for the slightest mistake.
"However, I have a hunch that this crisis has just begun." The underground warden said slowly.
"Why?"
"They're testing."
"Test what?"
"Test which alien creature can inflict a fatal blow on F404. Yesterday, the prison authorities even found a creature carrying a large number of germs, fortunately, human beings have long developed some good habits during the interstellar explosion, whether it is exoskeleton armor or mecha, there is a life circulation system, and the air in Mogan Prison has a purification system, and it can even be completely self-sufficient, so there are no casualties, and those germs are not suitable for the dry climate of this planet, and they die soon......"
"In other words, once the MS organization finds some kind of alien creature that can be strong, they will send it over on a large scale?"
"Yes." The underground warden nodded.
"Are we going to sit back and wait?"
"No, it's both a crisis and an opportunity!" A rare smile appeared on the corner of the underground warden's mouth.
"What opportunity?"
"Now, after several rounds of alien creatures, Mogan Prison has caused a lot of casualties, and the loss of weapons and equipment is also very large, once the MS organization finds a more suitable alien creature, then, the defense force of Mogan Prison will be seriously insufficient, and when the time comes, their only way is to ask the prisoners for help."
"What if they don't turn to the prisoners?"
"If you don't ask the prisoners for help, it's the same, when the time comes, the entire Mogan Prison will be stormed, the equipment will be paralyzed, hehe......" The underground prison warden's eyes showed a look of fanaticism.
"All the prisoners have regained their superpowers?" Zhou Sen's heart tightened.
"Yes. Including yourself! ”
Zhou Sen fell silent.
"How's your jailbreak plan?" The underground warden asked casually.
"It's coming."
"How fast?" The underground prison warden forced his eyes on Zhou Sen.
"Maybe today, maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow. In short, you're ready to go at any time! Zhou Sen said quietly.
"Zhou Sen, after you left, is there anything wrong?"
"Yes. Attend a one's wedding. ”
"What about after the wedding?" The underground prison warden stared at Zhou Sen.
"If I can get out, I want to take a break."
"Can you stay with me?"
"...... with you"
"I want to go somewhere, but I don't want to bring anyone else with me, so I want you to accompany me."
"Why me?" Zhou Sen couldn't help but ask.
"Although you often make me grit my teeth and become angry, you are also the only person who can talk to me normally, so I choose you." The underground prison warden had a look of pity on his face.
"What's in it for you?"
"You...... What benefits do you want? The underground prison warden was so angry that he clenched his hands tightly and glared at Zhou Sen viciously, he felt that his cultivation of more than 700 years had been tossed by this young man.
"Forget it, it's fate that we can be locked up in a prison, you owe this favor first, and pay it back when you feel the need to pay it back one day, anyway, you won't die, there is time."
"Human Favor...... Hehe, I have been imprisoned for more than 700 years and have never owed a debt of favors, and now it's good, people haven't gone out yet, and I owe favors first. The underground warden muttered, a little distracted.
"No, you're wrong, you owe favors, it means that you have friends, if you never owe favors to others, it means that you have never had friends, so it's a good thing to be able to owe favors to others."
"Friend...... It seems to make some sense. The underground warden was a little stunned.
"I remember you said that the rivers and lakes are not about fighting and killing, but about human feelings. And you yourself are jumping out of the world. If you can't escape this human society, why bother jumping out of the circle of human sophistication? Sometimes, what you owe to others is also a kind of concern, for example, after you owe me, you will always think about owing me a favor, and I am always thinking about the favor you owe me, and then, aren't we connected? ”
"You have a point." The underground warden laughed dumbly.
