Subsequently, the three were taken away in a black prison car.

Before the emir boarded the car, it was clear from the direction of the prison cart that the prison they were about to go to was located deep in town.

The prisoner cart was black and looked very sturdy, with only iron windows on the sides just enough to accommodate the head to pass through.

The Emir and the others were handcuffed in pure black, but they were free to move around the rest of the way, allowing them to see the scenery through the narrow iron windows.

From the civilian area to the aristocratic area, all the architecture and cultural customs are in full view, and if they are not locked in a prison car, their trip can be regarded as a tour.

After a while, Anne probed her surroundings through her magical sense, and her expression became serious.

It stands to reason that there should be a lot of magicians in such a big town, and she had met many of her peers the last time she came to Baifeng Town, but this time she couldn't sense any of them.

The only difference from last time was that she was now shackled, so she took a closer look at the handcuffs and found that they were indeed different from ordinary handcuffs, and this pure black style was not made of any material at all.

"Is it really a problem with handcuffs?" Anne muttered under her breath.

"What's the problem?" The emir asked.

After learning of Anne's idea, Emile also felt that it made sense, after all, with ordinary handcuffs, once the prisoner would use strange magic, it would be useless.

In other words, handcuffs made of this material can inhibit the conduction of magic power, and even the traces of magic can be hidden.

Thinking of this, the Emir had reason to suspect that the two prisoner carts were probably made of the same material, even the black wall.

As a candidate for the throne, you naturally have to take this into account, today's magic can be said to be omnipotent, and if someone uses magic to assassinate, ordinary walls can't stop it at all.

The speed of the prisoner van was not fast, and it took about half an hour for them to reach their destination.

Emir looked out of the window and saw black walls all around.

Immediately afterward, the soldiers opened the door and escorted them down.

The Emir was finally able to see the whole of their surroundings, and they were indeed located in the center of the entire town of White Peak, that is, within the tall black walls.

Perhaps trying to confirm something, he looked up and saw that the castle was hanging a few hundred meters high, and it looked even more oppressive from this angle.

In front of him was a pitch-black cavern, with a staircase that led diagonally down to the depths of the cavern.

"Is this a prison?" The emir whispered.

He could understand the implication of this, that the castle of the ruler was high, and the prisoners were the lowest, so they were imprisoned underground.

This black wall completely separates the ruler from the people, and the status of all the people in Baifeng Town is determined by the ruler, and those who obey the rules are regarded as honorable, and those who violate the laws they make can only be as lowly as dust.

"What are you doing, let's go!" One of the soldiers saw the emir standing stupidly and shouted at him.

He had no choice but to honestly step into the dark hole, and unexpectedly, the staircase was very short, with a vertical drop of only five or six meters, and it was no wonder that there was no lighting installed.

There was a faint light source at the bottom, provided by the torches on the wall, followed by a row of cells divided by iron bars.

A soldier casually opened the three, and then motioned for his companion to escort the emir and the others inside.

Just as the soldier was about to push rudely, a rapid sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded outside the prison, perhaps reaching the prison gate, and the horse's hooves stopped abruptly.

Naturally, the soldiers ignored such movements, after all, they only had to do what they wanted, and they didn't have to worry about the rest.

However, in the next second, a tall figure rushed in, and then said in a rather loud and eager voice.

"Wait a minute, don't lock them up."

When the soldier heard this, he finally reacted and quickly stopped what he was doing.

By the light of the fire, it was a male knight, who looked to be no more than thirty years old, tall and well-proportioned, burly but not bloated, and with short black hair that looked quite capable.

"Hey, what am I talking about," said Anne happily, "but it's too fast." ”

"Well, knight, do you have any advice?" The soldier asked respectfully, after all, the knight's status was more honorable than that of their errands.

"Ahem, I'm ......" The knight coughed lightly, wanting to tell his identity, but he couldn't say the words when he came to his lips, as if there was something hidden.

"Huh?"

"Haha, well, if I say I'm the knight leader of Baifeng Town, do you believe it?" The knight narrowed his eyes and smiled.

However, not to mention the soldiers, even the emir did not believe that the head of a knight order could speak so stumblingly, after all, in his impression, the knights were already considered unsmiling people, not to mention the knight commander, which was definitely full of majesty.

But the person in front of him not only hesitated to speak, but also spoke in an inappropriate way.

However, although the soldiers did not believe it, they did not dare to suspect it directly, because they had not met the local knight commander, and if the knight did not lie, then they would offend people by casually suspecting it.

"You say you're a Knight Commander? So I would like to take the liberty of asking, do you have a way to prove it? One soldier said solemnly.

Perhaps thinking this sentence was still too offensive, another soldier hurriedly said with a smile.

"Hehe, don't get me wrong, this is our rule here, I hope you don't be surprised, and it's not like there have been incidents of impersonating members of the Knights before, so please cooperate with us."

"This ......" the knight became even more stumbling, presumably unable to produce substantial evidence.

In fact, he was not lying, and every member of the Order had a document proving his identity, and he had to carry it with him.

It's just that he went to a noble friend's drinking party a few days ago, and when he got home, he found that the paperwork was missing, and he didn't find it for several days.

Of course, he can indeed make up for it, but the deputy head told him that if this kind of thing is known by others, it will discredit the knights, after all, ordinary knights lose their documents and it is easy to understand, how can he, the head of the regiment, lose it? That would be out of tune.

Now, Melissa, who is the deputy head of the regiment, learns that her sister has returned, and then learns that the person who saved her sister has been arrested as a kidnapper.

She wanted to apologize in person, but because she couldn't leave on official business, she asked him, the knight leader, who was idle all day.

However, without the paperwork, he couldn't prove his identity, and he rarely dealt with these soldiers, so naturally he couldn't find anyone who could break the siege.

"In that case, there is no way, and we have to act impartially." The soldier said embarrassedly, and then put all three in their cells.

These soldiers are not stupid, they understand that this knight is definitely not here for fun, but rules are rules, and even if the knights come to make trouble, they can put the blame on the person who made the rules.

The knight had no choice but to leave in a huff, and before leaving, he came to the emir and said a few words.

"I'm sorry to have wronged you, Charles Norwich, and I'm going to call Louise's sister."

"Are you really the Knight Chief?" The emir was more concerned about this.

"Haha, do you believe it?" Charles asked rhetorically.

At this point, Anne interjected.

"Does it matter if we believe it or not? It's all about whether you're telling the truth. ”

Perhaps thinking Anne's words were amusing and reasonable, Charles smiled heartily.

"Haha, what you said makes a lot of sense, well, I'm indeed the knight leader of Baifeng Town, but it's a pity that there is no proof, they won't recognize me, alas."

After Charles finished speaking, he sighed heavily and left directly.

When the two soldiers guarding the prison heard him, they looked at each other.

"Hey, we're not really going to get in trouble, are we?" One of them suddenly whispered.

"Hmph, what are you afraid of, is it still wrong for us to act impartially?"

"That man is a knight, so he shouldn't lie for no reason."

"It's hard to say, you only came recently, and you don't know what happened before, there was a man who came to the prison to inspect the prison pretending to be a member of the Knights, you know, the security of the town is in charge of the Knights, and they sometimes send criminals here when they catch them, so inspections are commonplace, and the brother on duty at that time did not have the slightest suspicion, but warmly entertained him......"

"And then?"

"Hehe, you should have heard more or less about what happened later."

"Why, you should know me, I'm not interested in these things."

"Also, you're only interested in women, anyway, it was later found out that the man was impersonating, as for what he came to the prison for, no one knows, and the brother who was on duty that day was also dismissed in the end, but since then, some strange things will happen in the prison."

"Well, what's that weird thing, isn't it? I'm tired of hearing it. ”

"No, no, no, it's definitely not a strange thing, you haven't been on duty at night, of course you don't know."

"Oh? So what the hell is weird? I'd like to hear it. ”

"This prison actually has several floors, people like us can only contact the outermost layer, here are some ordinary prisoners, are guilty of some crimes such as pit abduction and stealing, and some guards have higher authority, you can go to the deeper underground floor duty, the deeper you go, the greater the crime of the prisoners, and the deepest layer is more than 100 meters from the ground, where there are some death row prisoners, every once in a while someone will be dragged out for execution, but think about it, How can there be so many death row prisoners in our town, as early as two years ago, there was no one on the deepest layer, but after that incident, every night, there would be a strange sound in the depths of the prison, which lasted for more than ten minutes, you have never heard it, the sound was really creepy, like countless evil ghosts crying, and like a large group of vicious beasts howling. ”

“…… Well, to put it like you've experienced it yourself, aren't you just like me? ”

"Oh, I heard from those brothers who were on duty late at night, they were chatting at the time, I happened to be passing by, and they didn't know, how could they lie to me?"

"Hehe, I really won't deliberately lie to you, because they're just chatting and blowing water, nonsense."

"Hey, don't believe it, so let's sneak around and listen to it one day, if you have time?"

"Hmph, listen to it, I have time every day, just tonight."

"That's what I said, and if that's what I said, you'll have to treat me to a month's worth of wine."

"Okay, but what is a month's wine, let's just gamble a year's wages."

"Bet on it, I'm still scared that I won't be able to ......"

When the emir heard the words of the two soldiers outside, he couldn't help but want to laugh, thinking that such a big man would make a bet like a child.

However, he was also curious about the strange noise in the depths of the prison, and he had a hunch that it might be a monster.

If this is the case, then it is extremely scary to think about it, because these people in Baifeng Town actually don't know about it, but they are very lax, for example, the dignified knight leader can't even prove his identity, which is too unreliable, let alone others.

In this way, it seems that the fall of this town is sooner or later, but it is an opportunity for the Emir, who has experience dealing with monsters, and it will not be difficult to save this town.
