Chapter 293: We Really Didn't Want to Rob the Prison
The rescue work went more smoothly than expected, and Xiaoya, as a humanoid detector, began to find the location of other elves more and more efficiently, and one elf after another was dug out.
The real challenge is the awakening that follows.
The first female elf who was rescued just now, according to Ye Rumeng, had woken up, and the person did open his eyes, but his eyes were still blank, and his body was motionless, as if he had been asleep for too long, his consciousness had returned for the first time, and his spirit could not control his body.
It wasn't until more than a dozen people were rescued that among the elves lying on the ground, one of them suddenly sat up and looked around in shock.
The person who sat up was also seriously emaciated, but Mu You still recognized it immediately, this elf was the Merry he had seen in the dream castle before, and it was also the only elf who had remained awake in the dream world for a long time.
"Is that you?" Mei Li had also seen Mu You, and opened her mouth with some uncertainty. Because the vampire skin Mu You used at this time was not the same as when they met before.
"It's me." Mu You confirmed that she was indeed the person she knew.
"You're really ......"
Melly looked at the dug-out corpses around her in disbelief, and then looked at the surrounding environment full of flesh walls, and of course understood their current situation: the other party really ran into the belly of the octopus king and dug them out one by one!
"You're too bold......" Mei Li looked at Mu You with a strange expression.
"Where's the Octopus King?" Mu You asked.
"When I left, I was furious, and the castle was about to be crushed by it...... If you wake up next by it......" Merry didn't dare to continue, if the octopus king woke up at this time, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Then come and help, we don't have much time."
Mu You has prepared ten bottles of Legend and ten bottles of epic elixir, and has just used up four bottles so far, and at this consumption rate, it will be no problem to hold on for another hour or two.
But the problem is that there is still a time for the convergence of fragments stuck in him, it is now half past seven in the evening of the time of the Evil Spirit Sea, and there is only half an hour left before the agreed meeting time with the Son of Heaven and others, before that, he has to rush back to the fourth floor of the prison.
Melly didn't know what Mu You was thinking, but she also understood that time was pressing, so she hurriedly dragged her weak body and got up to help find the other companions.
With her joining, the search was quicker again, and after ten minutes, all sixty-seven elves had been dug up.
After confirming that everyone was safe, Melly smiled with relief, and then lost consciousness again tiredly.
"Didn't you say hello before you left?" Mu You looked at the bottle in his hand.
After Melly woke up just now, the old elf in the bottle automatically fell silent, and never reappeared after that, obviously deliberately avoiding them.
The soul in the bottle resurfaced at this time, looking at the skinny elves all over the ground, his expression was full of guilt, he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Forget it, I really don't have the face to see these children, just let me leave with dignity......
After sighing with emotion, he looked at Mu You with a straight face: "I admit that you have fulfilled the agreement and saved all my clansmen. Next, I will keep my promise and become an elf for your use......
After the old elf finished speaking, a relieved smile appeared on his face, and the remnant soul in the bottle began to loom.
Mu You put the bottle back in his backpack and put it with the old elf's bones.
Upon getting close to the bones, the soul automatically emerges from the bottle and sinks into the bones.
With the disappearance of the soul, the bones began to shatter into powder from top to bottom, drifting in the wind.
Soon, only an Elder Token remained, as well as a pokemon resembling a ball of light.
After transforming into a pokemon, the elf loses all consciousness and intelligence, and can only wander unconsciously in the backpack.
Seeing the elf taking shape, Mu You breathed a sigh of relief, and now that the reward has been successfully received, he has finally worked in vain.
"Prepare to retreat!"
At this time, there were only ten minutes left before the agreed eight o'clock, and Mu You beckoned the three of them to leave.
Send all the elves lying on the ground into the backpack,
Mu You went to take off the blood bottle attached to the heart veins on the top of his head.
At this moment, the blood vial was already full of crimson blood, and these blood droplets were constantly churning and surging in the bottle as if they were alive.
Mu You didn't have time to take a closer look, put away the bottle, and returned the same way with the three of them.
When I went back, it was much smoother, and I didn't encounter any twists and turns along the way, and I soon returned to the entrance of the cave.
Sending the other three into the cave first, before Mu You left, he suddenly turned around, took out all the remaining dozen bottles of sleeping potion in the ring, opened the mouth of the bottle, and poured them all into the flesh wall under his feet.
"I don't know how long this will last, anyway, it's all for you, and then your prison may be more noisy, well, sleep well......
Seeing a large amount of pale pink elixir, all of which were integrated into the flesh wall under his feet, Mu You left satisfied.
At this time, it is on the fourth floor of the submarine prison.
In the center of the fourth floor, there was the sound of chains slipping.
A few seconds later, a huge elevator-like cage fell, filled with humans.
After landing on the platform, the door of the iron cage automatically opened, and a group of ten people walked out of it.
These ten people are all from the divine power of the king, and the blonde man led by them is the Son of Heaven.
There is no limit to the number of people who visit the prison, and if necessary, they can even pull down the entire person who is granted by the divine authority of the monarch, but everyone who comes in needs to pay a 100-year life visit fee, and if there are too many people, even the organization of the divine right of the monarch cannot support it.
Not long after the Son of Heaven and the others landed, there was another sound of chains stirring next to them.
A few seconds later, another cage fell from the sky and landed on the platform.
After the gate opened, out of it this time were ten people dressed as pirates, led by Jack.
The two men and horses looked at each other and did not speak, but the snorts of disdain and ridicule came and went, and it was obvious that both families did not like each other.
At this time, a group of octopuses in front of them came quickly and surrounded twenty people.
"We're here to visit the prison!"
In the team of the Son of Heaven, Smile hurriedly took out the prison visit token that he had just received when he entered the prison and showed it to the octopuses.
The pirates also showed their prison certificates.
After the octopus soldiers checked it, they were recognized.
However, the octopus soldiers did not lay down their weapons, one octopus led the way, and dozens of other octopus soldiers surrounded the crowd, holding their weapons, and watched their every move vigilantly.
Everyone is extremely unhappy to be guarded like thieves by the octopus soldiers, but there is no way, the prison visit is like this, and not handcuffing them is already considered to be the face of taking care of the prison visit.
A few dozen octopuses are certainly not a threat to these people present, but if they really dare to do it, it will definitely lead to more serious consequences.
At this time, the group could only be obediently escorted to the prison by the octopus soldiers.
"Hurry up, don't procrastinate, remember, you only have an hour!" The octopus headed by him turned back to the crowd and reminded.
The fourth floor of the prison was supposed to be a period of severe cold, but because of the collection of visit fees, the facilities that caused extreme cold and heat were temporarily closed and reopened after an hour, which is why they were able to operate normally on the fourth floor of the prison at this time.
The group followed in the footsteps of the octopus and soon came to the outer area of the fourth floor, and finally stopped in front of a cell.
"You said your collaborator was in cell 4301?" The Son of Heaven looked at a group of pirates next to him to confirm.
"It's 4301, that's right......" Jack also looked up at this time, the number on the top of the cell was indeed 4301, and the sentence was 100 years, but ......
Jack looked at the big fat boy in the cell in front of him, his mouth full of oil, and he always felt that something was wrong......
"Grass, still eat KFC? This must be the guy!" A pirate cursed to the side.
However, when the others heard the pirate's words, they instinctively frowned: that person should just swim
The characters are in prison, right? Game characters, still need to eat specially?
"But the guidance of the fragments shows that this is indeed the right place......
At this time, Smile secretly took out a map fragment, walked to the cage, and watched the arrow on the back change, but the arrow really pointed firmly to the prison, which means that there must be a fragment in the prison at this time.
"Hmm...... Are you also the ones my father sent?"
At this time, the little fat man in the prison realized that there was a crowd outside the prison door, and the two little soybean-like eyes suddenly began to shine.
"Also? What do you mean? Someone has already been here?" Smile immediately noticed the language sickness in his words.
"This person doesn't seem to be a player......" Son of Heaven said at this time.
When the others heard this, they all hurriedly checked the little fat man, but they couldn't return any information such as ID, obviously this person is not a player, but an aborigine.
"And who is this man? How could he be in cell 4301?" Someone subconsciously asked.
No one answered, but a name was already coming out: the captured son of the Dragoon Pirates, who was also said to have been sentenced to a hundred years......
"Whoever he is, isn't it all over if he wants the pieces?"
The demon snorted, walked over to the prison door, slapped it, and yelled in the Star Spirit language, "Hey, boy, where are your shards?"
"Shards? What fragments?" The little fat man in the prison looked confused.
"Pretend to be stupid, the map must be on you!"
"Map...... Oh, you mean this?"
The little fat man seemed to finally react to something, and took out a fragment of a map shrouded in black gas from his pocket.
"Shards!"
Seeing the things in the little fat man's hand, all the humans present were dazzled, and many people subconsciously took a step forward.
"yes, that's it, give it to me!" The demon hurriedly spoke, reaching into the prison to snatch something.
Unexpectedly, the little fat man hurriedly put the thing back in his pocket: "That's not good, I have to get me out of prison before I can give you this thing!"
"Kill those octopus soldiers, grab the key, and I'll be out of prison!" The little fat man also egged everyone on the way.
However, he said this in public, not only could everyone hear it, but also the octopus soldiers in the rear could hear it clearly.
For a while, all the octopuses raised their weapons as if they were facing a great enemy, vigilantly aimed at everyone, and at the same time, their eight claws were raised, ready to attack.
"Don't be nervous, it's all a misunderstanding! We really didn't want to rob the prison......" Smile quickly explained to the tense octopus soldiers.
Unfortunately, the octopus soldiers did not let their guard down because of this, and several of them even opened their mouths to make a series of unique sounds in the direction they came, which was the sound of them calling for help.
Even though there are a large number of nearby octopuses coming this way.
"Leave them alone, our goal is just to get together the pieces and get them all out." The Son of Heaven said, looking at the person next to him.
The man nodded, held out his hand, and a fragment appeared in his hand out of thin air.
This person is a game character, and in reality, I have just sent a map fragment into the game.
At the same time, the Son of Heaven and the demon also took out a fragment from their bodies, counting the one that smiled just now, the four fragments on the Son of Heaven's side had already gathered.
"What about yours?" Only then did the Son of Heaven look at Jack and the others.
Jack looked at the four fragments on the side of the Son of Heaven, and a trace of greed flashed in his eyes, but he didn't snatch it directly, after all, he knew that the other party dared to take it out, and he must have no fear.
Jack turned around and nodded to one of his men, who had indeed sent three shards from reality.
Jack took the fragments and showed them to the Son of Heaven and the others one by one, confirming that it was the fragments of Dawn City.
At this time, the four fragments on the side of the Son of Heaven, Jack's three, plus one in prison, the eight fragments have been gathered.
However, there was no change on the scene
No cues were received in the human brain either.
"Where's the ghost captain, haven't you come yet?" Jack asked, frowning. Eight of the nine fragments were already in front of their eyes, and the only missing could be the Ghost Captain Five's fragment.
"I don't know." The Son of Heaven shook his head.
"Even if he doesn't come down to the undersea prison, as long as he comes to Turtle Island with the shards, he should be able to activate the shards." Jack's brows furrowed, "Damn, this guy shouldn't have missed the appointment, right?"
"No, the other party specially walked us here, is it just for fun?" The devil also frowned.
"Could it be that the fragment has been activated, but there is no hint?" Smiling in a vain attempt to lighten the mood suggests another possibility.
After all, Dawn City is the first Sky City, and there is no experience to follow, and no one can be sure if there will be a special hint after the fragments gather, or maybe the entrance to Dawn City has been opened now, but they don't know.
"No way, the arrow function was turned on before, and now that the fragments are gathering in such a big matter, there shouldn't be no prompts......" Jack still kept skeptical.
"Or, the ghost captain has already come in early......" At this time, the Son of Heaven suddenly spoke, but his eyes turned to look at the bluestone passage on the side.
Everyone also subconsciously followed his gaze, and the scene in sight made them all stunned.
"Foggy?"
I saw that in the passage to their right, a white mist was accelerating and spreading, constantly devouring the surrounding cages, and quickly approaching them.
"Wait, fog ......."
Jack's people didn't react much to this white mist, but the people on the Son of Heaven's side all changed their faces and thought of something.
The same fog that had enveloped their ship in the encounter with Captain Ghost a few days ago......
The sudden appearance of the white mist not only made the human side begin to waver, but the octopus soldiers also instantly became chaotic, obviously something happened in the prison.
More and more octopus soldiers gathered around, and surrounded the twenty of them, and the octopus soldiers led by them opened their mouths as if facing a great enemy: "Today's visit to the prison is stopped, everyone, leave immediately!"
When everyone heard this, they all looked at the Son of Heaven, waiting for him to come up with an idea.
At this time, the Son of Heaven suddenly frowned, reached into his jacket pocket, and took out a card.
[Strange Thief's Reservation Letter: The Strange Thief has taken a fancy to the map fragment on your body, and he will come to you to steal the item in an hour, please be sure to take precautions in advance......]
"Retreat."
The Son of Heaven did not let anyone else see the contents of the card, and after a brief glance, he stuffed it back into his pocket and gave the order.
"Do you really want to retreat? Not waiting for Captain Ghost?" Jack frowned, the fragments hadn't gathered yet, and now retreating, wouldn't it be a failure?
"Don't wait, the other party is nearby, knowing that other fragments have gathered, but refusing to take out their own fragments, it means that the other party is not here for the purpose of gathering fragments at all, if you are willing to wait, you can continue to wait." After the Son of Heaven finished speaking calmly, regardless of Jack's reaction, he waved his hand and motioned for his men to follow him away.
Smile and Demon and the others were in a hurry to follow.
"Retreat now, a little late, right?"
Just as the Son of Heaven and the others were about to leave, an unfamiliar voice suddenly sounded from their array.
Everyone subconsciously looked back, only to find that the demon was gone, replaced by a figure in a black robe.
No one wonders who the new person is, because the ID above the other person's head is so conspicuous: Captain Ghost!
Before everyone could react, they saw the black-robed man suddenly raise his fist.
At this moment, everyone instinctively jumped away and instantly gave up the space in place.
A legendary-level master suddenly raised his fist, no one dared not to dodge, even if it was the Son of Heaven, he instinctively took a few steps back at this moment, as if he was on guard against a great enemy.
However, this punch did not hit anyone in the end, but hit it
The face of the nearest octopus soldier.
