Chapter 72: Prison Escape at 24 O'clock (1)
In the darkness, hundreds of people were crowded, and the whispers were endless. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
It is a narrow, rectangular room with no windows, a solid iron door on the east and west sides, and a grandstand on the north side. Since the torches stuck in the walls were not lit, the hundreds of people in the room could barely see the outline of the room and the figures around them by the faint light that leaked through the cracks in the door.
Aruka and the others stood side by side in the southeast corner of the crowd, confused by what they saw. Xinong asked in a low voice, "Are they all there?"
The crowd responded, and wittily omitted their names.
Sinong asked again, "Aluca, what have you found?"
If anyone could figure out what was going on, it would be Aluca. Arouca let out a "shh This ability was cultivated when he was a student, and the purpose was naturally not to listen to lectures, but to study the mental activities of his classmates in noisy self-study classes......
"The message I've heard so far is ......," Aruka sembled the language, piecing together the bits and pieces, "and all the people in this room are prisoners, including us. The place we are in now is called the receiving room, which is part of the Sun Prison. Later the warden of the Sun Prison would come out of the stands to give a lecture, and then we would be officially put in prison. ”
Catherine asked curiously, "Are these prisoners regulars in the prison? Why do they know so much about this prison, and the name of this prison ......?"
Aruka pricked up his ears for a moment and replied, "No, it seems that they are all coming to this prison for the first time. I think it's probably because this prison is so famous, so big that everyone knows about it, so it's just us...... will not understand. As for the name of the prison, if it has nothing to do with our mission, you should not care. Remember, in this game, you have to follow the rules. ”
Xinon smiled bitterly: "You are the most unruly person, this is really unconvincing when it comes out of your mouth...... Anyway, when the warden comes out in a while, everyone will not speak, no opinion, right?"
"I have no opinion, but I have a suggestion. Aluca said, reaching to the side and grabbing Catherine's arm in the dark. He clearly felt the latter's body tremble, followed by a surge of killing intent, and hurriedly said, "Don't be in a hurry, I mean the four of us will stand in a circle and surround you." Don't forget who the people were, and when the lights came on, they noticed a beautiful woman in the crowd...... I'm not worried about you being insulted, I'm worried that you can't help but kill us and get us in. ”
The burly bald Hans finally spoke: "Brother Aluca is right, I know these criminals very well, and ninety percent of them will never let go of the opportunity to insult a woman. "They've already exchanged names before.
Hook-nosed Nock sneered twice and said, "Don't worry...... 'Your Highness', as long as someone dares to stretch out their hands towards us...... Boom Boom ...... I promise that his ten fingers will be broken into twenty-eight ......"
Catherine hesitated for only a moment, then accepted Aluca's suggestion. Although it is not her character to be protected, it is better to be careful in a place like a prison. As Aluca said, it is unlikely to be insulted, Catherine's strength is there, but some things just can't bite people and disgust people......
After the four of them had secured Catherine, Aluka spoke again, "Now, here's the problem...... If you think about it, we are prisoners, this is a prison, but ...... None of our weapons or equipment have been unloaded, and so have everyone else, why?"
Xinon said: "Every time you 'come to a question', don't you have the answer in your heart? ”
"......No," Arouca said in a deep voice, "I really don't know what's going on this time, but I have a terrible premonition...... It's like standing in a crater that is about to erupt......"
At this moment, the torches planted in the wall were lit one after another, and the room suddenly became bright. After the vision became clear, the prisoners could not help but let out a cry of despair and fear.
Around this so-called "reception room" stood a circle of "guards". Why put these two words in quotation marks? Because even Aluca could not tell whether these "guards" were living creatures or mere decorations. They look like their best human friends, Dalton, with a silver-white suit of armor and five spiky horns sticking out of their helmet. The armor is covered with thorny thorns, and he holds a large plaster-colored shield in his left hand, the front of which is inlaid with a mirror. In his right hand, he holds a giant sword of the same color, which is also covered with thorns, resembling a mace.
In this world, they are the nightmare of countless criminals, the famous "Thorn Knights". The Thorn Knight is not only insensible and painless, but also has a strong ability to resist blows, but also inflicts counter-damage on enemies who carry out physical attacks, and uses the mirror shield in his hand to reflect magic and magic skills.
Most of the prisoners were only frightened by the Knights of Thorns, but the Aluca group was frightened by the other prisoners......
There were few humans in sight in the entire reception room, more strange creatures: a rooster with a peacock tail and a bone cleaver in his hand, an unidentified creature with a pig in its head, a cow in its tail, and a cat in its body, and a puddle of pink, translucent liquid that made a "whine" and tried to move towards women......
The most normal of the prisoners are ordinary humans, followed by some creatures with human body and animal heads, such as kobolds and werewolves, and then some creatures that can still recognize their original race, such as Cerberus with three heads, fiery eyes and smoke in his mouth. The rest ...... It's indescribable, it's impossible to complain, and it's impossible to see that it's rational.
The only thing to be thankful for is that Catherine doesn't have to worry about being snuck in the ass anymore...... The aesthetics of these creatures are clearly very different from those of humans.
After the lights were turned on, before the warden could appear, a humanoid creature with eighteen iron swords in his body on the east side of the crowd roared angrily, and the content was almost as follows: I am innocent, the boss has no conscience and ran away with my sister-in-law with money, and I will pay back my hard-earned money...... Give me back my hard-earned money......
The three Thorn Knights standing next to him did not hesitate, and in unison raised their swords and slashed them down, slashing them into a pulp, and the screams stopped abruptly, and they did not even give the prisoner a chance to defend himself. The effect of this killing of chickens and monkeys is remarkable, and the prisoners who were originally ready to move have become honest, but anyone can see it...... They won't be honest for long.
The corners of Aluka's eyes twitched slightly, a drop of cold sweat flowed from his forehead, and he smiled dryly: "Hehe...... No...... No way...... Do you say ......"
Xinon whispered quietly, "What did you find?"
"It's not certain...... All I can say is that you don't mess with the prison guards, who, unlike normal guards, don't care if the prisoners live or die. "Aluca decided not to act rashly until she figured out the rules of this prison.
It came out after a long time.
After the swordsman was hacked to death by the Knight of Thorns, the warden finally walked out of the passage behind the stands. Compared with most prisoners, the warden's appearance is dignified and good-looking.
If you want to describe it simply...... It's a big iron ball. The warden has no clothes on, and his appearance is a large black iron ball, with eyes, nose and mouth on the front of the iron ball, which is still drawn in the style of a comic...... From the sides and lower part of its body, four thin white lines protrude, connecting two cute round balls (hands) and a pair of white dorayaki (feet).
"I'm going to wipe my ......" What he saw in front of him had broken through the sky, Aluka quietly pinched himself, desperately realizing that he was not dreaming, "My name is Hirata Matragi Heio, I'm a little different, I've noticed it...... I realized that I was actually a comic book character......"
Catherine stepped back on her hind legs, stepped on Aluca's feet with lightning speed, and threatened in a low voice, "What are you muttering? What should I do if I get the warden to pay attention?"
"You...... You crazy woman...... Aren't you afraid that I'll make a sound out of pain......"
At this point, the warden began to speak.
"Pigs, moths, thank the gods of riots, your sins will be perpetuated in my prison, your worth will be exalted in death, and in the prison of the sun you can do whatever you want...... Except for jailbreaking. Once a prisoner is my prisoner, he will always be my prisoner, and any prisoner who has a tendency to escape will be summarily executed, including those who claim to have grievances. "The warden's voice was like that of a babbling child, milky and devoid of majesty...... However, the sheer size and the surrounding circle of Thorn Knights silenced the prisoners.
"That's ......," Aruka muttered, "this prison encourages prisoners to kill each other...... In order to increase the aggressiveness of the prisoners, the prisoners' equipment is not confiscated, but once they show dissatisfaction with the prison itself, they will be immediately executed, such as the swordsman just now...... Since prisoners are encouraged to kill each other, they will not care if there are no dead in prisons, and there may be no other punishment than execution. This Sun Prison...... Maybe it's even more dangerous and terrifying than hell...... And the wording of this warden, which seems to reveal something......"
The warden continued, "But don't think you're here to enjoy the prison. Your lives henceforth belong to the King of Rebellion, the spokesman of the God of Rebellion. Every nine hours, you will go to the Colosseum to fight and please the king of rebellion. And those who survive, there is no reward, what awaits you is only another battle...... Is there anyone upset, is someone angry, does anyone think it's unfair?"
The prisoners were silent.
"Very well, it seems that you all recognize your fate. You moths do not deserve hope, and this world is left for you with nothing but endless despair and fear......"
"Welcome, Sun Prison!"
