Chapter 31: The Mechanical Cage
Knowing that Sululu was sent in by the lord, the young Knight of Dawn didn't continue to ask.
Sululu was not asked to choose a cell again, and the two spent the night in the cell where they were guarded.
In the early morning, Sululu was woken up by the roar of machinery, and the sound of "click" gears constantly echoed in his ears.
It made him think that he had slept in the workshop of the Dragon City factory last night.
The moment Sululu opened his eyes, he saw a scene that amazed him.
I saw that the dome of the entire prison actually rose, and the sunlight shone down from the transparent glass roof.
And immediately after, Sululu saw that all corners of the room were actually covered with huge rotating gears.
As those huge gears kept turning, it didn't take long for Suluru to feel the prison beneath his feet begin to slowly rise.
When I looked down in surprise, the floor under my feet gradually became transparent, and I could clearly see the scene below through the floor.
The cages that were originally buried deep in the ground began to gradually rise upward, and the rows of cages that rose up were translated in the specified direction.
First, the top forty-four layers of the cage rose up, and slowly panned around, forming a huge circle.
Immediately after that, the thirty-three layers of cages rose, and they also shifted to the periphery, forming an inner circle close to the cages of the previous forty-four layers.
After that, there are twenty-two layers of cages, which rise up to form a circle.
Finally, the eleventh layer of cages rises, forming the innermost circle.
But just like the young Knight of Dawn said last night, there are a total of one hundred and eight layers of cages, but only one hundred can be reached, and the next eight layers cannot go down.
At this time, the raised cage only reached the ninety-ninth floor, and the hundredth floor could be faintly seen, although it was raised, it did not rise to the ground.
After that, the eight-layer cage in the abyss disappeared completely, and seemed to remain in the darkness of the pit forever.
Sululu was stunned by the presence of some in front of him, and he never thought that the prison in Dragon City would actually look like this.
The young Knight of the Dawn seemed to understand Sululu's surprise, stood up and said, "This is the prison of Dragon City, what everyone doesn't know is that the prison of Dragon City is actually a huge machine, every morning, the cage on the first ninety-nine floors will rise, so that the prisoners in those cages can see the sun, and will open through those cages, so that they can have a place to move." ”
The young Knight of Dawn sighed, "They can do a lot in these cages, but unfortunately none of them are free. ”
Suluru hurried to the iron door that led to the cage before, and saw that there were still stairs leading to the cages below.
It's just that the intersection seems to be closed, and the prisoners who can move freely underneath look like they can't get out.
Seeing Sululu running over to look, the young Knight of Dawn said, "Don't look at it, you won't be able to come out again after you go in." ”
After a night, the young Knight of Dawn seemed to be much calmer, and took the initiative to ask, "I don't know yet, what is your name?"
Suluru turned to the Knight of the Dawn and said, "My name is Suluru, what do you call me?"
The young Dawn Knight had a stiff face, and the corners of his mouth pulled slightly: "You don't need to call me Your Excellency, my name is 'Levi', and I am still in the probationary period, so I am not qualified to be called 'Your Excellency'." ”
Sululu heard the name of the young Knight of the Dawn and said with some surprise, "You are an Oriental?"
Levi smiled and said, "I have a quarter of Oriental ancestry, my grandfather was an Oriental, you seem to have Oriental ancestry too, right?"
Sululu nodded and said, "Well, my father is supposed to be an Oriental, at least in my impression, he is an Oriental face. ”
As he spoke, Sululu took advantage of the sunlight to take a closer look at Levi and found that Levi did have an oriental face, but he had red hair.
The red hair, which was like a flame, seemed to be very different from Levi's somewhat wooden and calm personality.
Last night, because the light in the cage was very dim, and when Li Wei fought with the old Taoist priest later, he was wearing armor, so Sululu never found out.
Levi seemed to see Sululu's surprise and said with a smile, "The red hair was inherited from my grandmother. ”
During the day, Levi looked a lot more cheerful, thinking that although Levi was a very strict Knight of the Dawn, he was still a young man after all.
Therefore, for Levi's cheerfulness during the day, Sululu didn't feel anything wrong.
But instead, Sululu remembered some of Levi's words last night, and couldn't help but ask: "You said yesterday that I was also sent in by the lord, could it be that there are other people here who were also sent in by the lord?"
Levi nodded and said, "Naturally, there are, and there are quite a few, and you are not the first one after I came here." ”
Speaking of this, Levi walked to the edge of the room, pointed to the circle of cells below, and the farthest circle of cells and said, "Look there, do you see it? That cell, the prisoners in those cells, almost all of them were sent in by your Dragon City Lord, I once wondered, is the security of your Dragon City very bad? Why are so many prisoners sent in?"
Glancing at the cells, Sululu couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard Levi's words.
Seeing Sululu's wry smile, Levi asked a little strangely, "What are you laughing at? Is there anything funny about this?"
Sululu calmed down for a moment, and then said, "I'm laughing at you for being wrong, it's not that the security of Dragon City is poor, it's that our lord's ambitions are too great. ”
Levi was even more confused, and asked puzzledly, "Your lord's ambition is too great, and what does his ambition have to do with you being sent in?"
Sululu smiled and said, "Hey, hey, the relationship here is big, and it's huge. ”
Later, Sululu also pointed to those cells and said, "If I guess correctly, the guys in those cells should be obstacles for the pig-headed people to dominate Dragon City." ”
When Levi heard Sululu's words, he was stunned for a moment, and then exclaimed, "What did you say? Do the pig-headed people want to dominate Dragon City alone? How is it possible. ”
Despite being a trainee Knight of the Aurora, Levi adhered to some of the rules of the Knight of the Dawn and followed all the arrangements of the Holy See.
But that doesn't mean that Levi will ignore everything, as a Knight of the Dawn, he has the duty to protect the Holy See and the entire Republic.
For something like the pig-headed man dominating Dragon City, which obviously goes against the interests of the Holy See and the entire republic, it is naturally impossible for Levi to sit idly by.
It's just that Levi has been in Dragon City for all these years, and he doesn't think that the pig-headed lord has the idea of wanting to dominate Dragon City.
In the face of Levi's questioning, Sululu said calmly: "The pig-headed man's thoughts are hidden deeply, how can you, a person who has been locked up in prison all year round, know about the outside world?"
Sululu's words made Levi completely stunned, and he stood there dumbfounded, thinking carefully about Sululu's words, Levi couldn't find any words to refute.
