Chapter 767: Sin City

[Thanks to Mrrar for the monthly pass support!]

Early in the morning, when Zero arrived at the office in City Hall, Yafidi had already arrived early. Zero is quite unexpected, and he has been busy training with Su recently, and he has never seen Yafidi. But when I was eating and chatting with Leah, when I learned about some recent situations in the city through the girl, I heard that Yafidi was closed in her own house. Although Zero was curious about the situation of the former head of the regiment, he did not inquire much in the spirit of respect, when Yafidi suddenly appeared, apparently with something important, and invited him to the office.

Jafidi said, "I've combed through and recorded some of the things in the Great Prison of Thebes these days, maybe you need to use this information. ”

He pulled out a thick stack of paper and placed it in front of Zero. Zero glanced at it, and it was full of text and scribbled graphics.

"When I was a regimental commander, I used to read some information about the Thebes prison in my spare time. It was just to pass the time, and the prison, the city of rocks, and the fortress of Canon were all built by the builder of the city of Rome, the best architect of the city, Mr. Lancasti, more than a decade ago. And the Great Prison of Thebes is his most proud masterpiece, so I will remember it, but I didn't expect it to come in handy now. Yafidi said.

"Thank you very much. ”

Zero said sincerely, and Yafidi waved his hand and said, "This is nothing compared to the kindness you gave us to save our family, I heard that you are planning to rescue Cinderella." Call me then, for I am more familiar with the prison of Thebes than you do. ”

"But you"

"I know that family is important to me. So I've arranged for Mina and them to leave for the past two days, and then I'll rush back before you leave. That way, I can let go and do what I want. Yafidi said seriously.

Looking at him like this, Zero didn't say anything, just shook his arm heavily.

It's all in plain sight.

After Yafidi left, Zero began to look through the materials of the Great Prison of Thebes. The prison was built after the city of Rome by the same designer. However, after designing the Rock City and Canon Fortress one after another, the designer Langcasti died after completing the design of the Canon Fortress due to years of fatigue and exposure to the radiation-filled surface. The Great Prison of Thebes is his proudest work, claiming that no one can escape from prison.

Of course, both the unfallen name of Canon Fortress and the Wall of Sighs of Rock City were overthrown at Zero's hands. It can be said that Langcasti is a talented architect. However, due to the limitations of the times and knowledge, his vision has not been able to reach the present era in the long run, and he does not know the terrible things about the powerful. Therefore, most of the designs written by him should be for the general situation. Although the Great Prison of Thebes is known as an iron prison, it may not be so impregnable.

Zero continues to look down.

The materials written by Jafidimer should have been read many years ago. The records were a bit messy, and even though Yafidi had combed through them, there were still large gaps. But after reading these records, plus some simple sketches, it also gave Zero a general idea of the structure of the Great Prison.

The prison is divided into six floors, and the further down the floor, the more dangerous the prisoners are. Needless to say, Cinderella is imprisoned at the lowest level of the prison. The biggest feature of the Thebes Prison is the psychological illusion, and it has to be said that Langcasti is indeed ingenious in this design. At first glance, the floors of the prison may seem to descend vertically, but they are not. The position between each floor is more like a Z-shape, and the elevator that seems to go straight down is unaware of the use of the balance system, so when doing oblique movement, the people in the elevator are unaware. In an enclosed space, without any references, it's hard to know if you're walking xiangxia or diagonally.

The biggest use of this design is to confuse the senses of a jailbreak or intruder, and without the correct commands, the elevator will not reach the lower prison, but will instead send you to another level of space. When you step out of the elevator, you'll find a large group of fully armed soldiers already pointing their guns at you.

Moreover, the instructions are different from one level to another, and they are randomly changed every day, and only those who have access to the prison are aware of it. Therefore, the possibility of jailbreak and invasion is eliminated to the greatest extent. Of course, other arrangements, such as the prison being located underwater, are designed to be part of the prisoner's escape.

In addition to the situation in the Thebes prison, Yafidi also mentioned other conditions around the prison. The island on which Thebes Prison is located initially had only one ground military base, which was used to train prison guards. Later, with Sauron's acquiescence, a city began to be built on the island. The city is not open to the general public, it is open to criminals. That's right, criminals.

It doesn't matter what crimes you commit elsewhere, whether you're a pirate or a bandit, if you flee into the city before you're arrested, you'll be pardoned for all your crimes. As a result, the city became a refuge for criminals, and its name was both the City of Sin.

Of course, there is no such thing as a free lunch. When you enter the city of sin, you will be forgiven of your sins, but you will not be allowed to leave it for the rest of your life. However, life in the city is not pretty. There is military control, and freedoms are greatly restricted. But starting at eight o'clock every night and ending at six o'clock the next morning, Sin City opens all the restrictions and you can do anything. There is only one point, and you can't kill people.

If you kill someone, you will be imprisoned in the Theban prison.

However, this is not easy.

Come to think of it, who arrived in Sin City was not a vicious criminal, and the temperament of these people would never be much better. And during the period when the restrictions are lifted. Sin City not only offers ordinary entertainment, such as bar dancers, etc., but also opens up a lot of psychotropic drugs. In such a situation, people's emotions are simply not able to control themselves normally as they can during the day. Often the end of emotional out-of-control is murder, not to mention in the extremely depressing situation during the day, who doesn't want to vent at night.

So, there was no shortage of criminals in the Great Prison of Thebes. Even, the first to third floors of the Great Prison are simply for the people of Sin City.

It doesn't hurt to be in jail, as long as you can pay the ransom stipulated by the prison, you can be released. Jafidi points out that every criminal who fled to Sin City carried a lot of wealth with him to a greater or lesser extent. Sin City, on the other hand, sucks money through every night's entertainment and prison ransom, and when the criminals have all their money, they don't want to come out of prison again. And after a period of time, the person will quietly evaporate from the world.

A large part of Sin City's income goes into Zoro's pocket. And the money would not pass through the financial system of the city of Rome, so the public would not know about it. And those officials who know, because of Sauron's status, also turn a blind eye.

More than a decade into now, Sin City and Thebes Prison have long become an inseparable whole.

Sin City tapped his finger on the table, and the mastermind calculated it with great speed based on the information provided by Yafidi. After a few moments, a clear jihua appeared in Zero's mind, and he thought through a few more details before deciding to use this as a blueprint for rescuing Cinderella.

Sauron used Sin City to collect money, and he had to use this to break through the impregnable prison of Thebes. Sauron will soon discover that his greatest tool for enriching himself has in turn become his greatest weakness.

The Zero-Purpose Brain sends out an encrypted email, and Ishabel appears on the screen a few moments later. The commissioner, who was once at the bottom of the bench, is now glorious, and on the day of the attack on St. Louis, Commissioner Masson died tragically. In addition, she now supports Zero and Paul, and her status in the seven-member committee has been greatly improved, and she is even more responsible for zero contact.

When he saw Zero, the beautiful commissioner smiled and said, "Is there anything I can do for you?" ”

"Miss Isabelle, I need an identity. As a criminal, he'd better be the heinous kind. ”

Strange as she was, Isabel said, "Give me a day, and I'll have all the information ready for you." ”

"Haode, waiting for your news. ”

This concludes the short newsletter.

At this point, Zero had time to deal with the work that had been piled up in the City of Rocks. The mountain-like documents had actually been filtered by Leah for him, and the non-essential ones had already been handled by Leah for him. For the rest, his signature is required to take effect. After these files were processed, even if the computing power of the zero brainbrain was already quite good, it took half a day.

Once the documents were processed, all that remained was the report from Franklin.

In his report, Franklin indicated that he had retrained the army because of the impending spring. As soon as winter and spring melt, the regular troops of the Poseidon Regiment will be able to go to the City of Rock and participate in the next big battle. And after nearly three months of recuperation, the number of infantry regiments has expanded to 30,000. This was what Franklin considered to be the limit of numbers, beyond which there would be no balance in terms of equipment and the quality of the army.

Zero believed in Franklin's abilities, and his judgment was not in doubt.

zuihou, Franklin mentions Ji Ya. On the basis of the batch of biochemical raw materials and equipment that was given by Estar last month, the preparation of biological organs, which was originally scheduled to be completed next month, has been completed ahead of schedule, and there are as many as twenty-five. At present, suitable soldiers have been selected in the army for transplantation, and for a period of time after transplantation, the biological organs have stabilized and can provide soldiers with sixth-order biological energy.

After training, these reinforced soldiers already have a certain combat power. It's just that the biological organs developed by Ji Ya at present can only simply generate energy, and there is no reason for producing any ability. Therefore, when Franklin trained them, he followed the spear-throwing tactics of the Trident. That was the most effective tactic for the reinforced soldiers at the moment, and now that they had left the Canon Fortress. On their way to the City of Rocks, Franklin hopes they can add a point to their chances of winning the next battle at Zero.

As for the biological organs of aptitude, Ji Ya has already started to develop them. It is believed that in the near future, Zero will be able to have an army of capable people that can be mass-produced.

This is encouraging news, and the arrival of the Reinforcement Soldier may not bring any crucial changes to the tide of battle. But its significance is very significant, which means that Zero finally has a jishu that can enable those who have the ability to mass-produce, once this jishu is formed, let alone the western continent. Even other continents Zero have the strength to sweep them, of course, happy to happy, Zero has not forgotten. Now the most crucial thing in front of him is still time.

For example, the rescue of Cinderella is urgent, as she can't wait for the Legion of the Able.

Isabelle's efficiency is still very high, and in the evening of this day, a complete identity has been sent to Zero's brain. According to Zero's request, Isabelle's chosen identity for Zero is a criminal named Rafe. The reason why this criminal was chosen was first of all because he was about the same size as Zero Ten, which is important and greatly reduces the risk of zero impersonation. Secondly, Rafe is a seventh-order killer who specializes in stealth movement and sharp knife skills. His physiognomy is characterized by pale hair and golden eyes, and an X-shaped scar on the left side of his face.

Ten years ago, he was a pirate who was rampant in the open seas, and the Papal Office carried out many round-ups and was also one of the first-class felons in the Papal Office before the four pirates became famous. But suddenly disappeared ten years ago, and no one knows where he went. Then Cinderella appeared, replacing Rafe as a headache for the Papal Chamber.

In fact, it was Rafe who secretly joined the Brotherhood ten years ago and changed his name. Only killed in an operation five years ago, but everything about him, still preserved in the Brotherhood. Isabel has had Rafi's long knife "Scarlet Twilight" and related characteristic clothing brought to Rock City, accompanied by an excellent makeup artist. With his help, Zero was able to transform into the great pirate Rafael.

In this message, there is also a brief account of Rafael's life. Including the sensational deeds he had done, as well as which enemies and friends he had, etc., it can be seen that Isabel was very well prepared.

The next morning, a car arrived in the City of Rocks. The car stopped at the entrance of the town hall, and out of the car stepped a stern-faced old man who handed Isabel a letter of introduction, who turned out to be a member of the fraternity. The old man, Wally, is an excellent makeup artist, and he was also hired by Isabel to disguise for Zero.

Wally's makeup jishu is top-notch, and he reinvents Zero based on Rafay's photos. Rafe has white hair, and Zero is black. These two colors go to extremes, and if you just cover them with dyes, they can easily show the filling. So Wo uses the potion to wash away the melanin of the zero hair, so that until the new hair grows, zero can maintain a gray hair. The next step is to replace Zero with a colored pupil membrane, so that Zero's other eye will also turn golden.

Over the course of half a day, Wally started with details such as skin tone and scars. To give Zero a complete makeover, it is rare that Wally did not simply apply makeup to Zero according to Rafe's previous appearance, but changed slightly on the basis of Rafite's appearance, so as to present a Rafe more than ten years later. So when Zero walked out of the room, he looked much more mature than his actual age. Add to that one of Rafe's signature cloaks and long knives, and Zero feels like a different person.

Later, Wally also took out a brain brain, which contained some video recordings of Rafay. This was also prepared for him by Isabel in order to familiarize Zero with Rafe's movements. He has a trademark move, that is, he will always touch his nose before encountering something difficult to solve, or before he moves to kill. Zero jotted down this detail, along with a few other pieces of information. By the end of the evening, Zero, from the tone of his voice to the way he walked, was seven or eight points similar to the real Rafe.

Wally said: "Rafe is a man of high arrogance, and he draws his sword at every turn. If you're going to play him, you're going to have to kill a few people. ”

Zero nodded: "This is exactly the purpose of my asking Isabel for information on a villain, and I originally intended to kill someone." ”

After that, Zero had a secret conversation with Su and other core members that night. In the early morning of the next day, he quietly left Rock City without anyone knowing, and went alone to the island of Cunador, where the Great Theban Prison was located.

Three days later, Raphael appeared on one of the islands to the north, where he was pursued by the Papal Chamber. Two more days later, he landed on the island of Kunado and was granted immunity, much to the delight of the fleet pursuing him. On the same day, Rafe officially became one of the "residents" of Sin City after registering.

A Sin City guard had just registered Zero in the form of Rafael, and said, "I hope you have enough treasure with you, knowing that no amount of money is enough for us." He smiled and added, "Come with me, Monsieur Rafe." First you have to go to our laboratory to have a notarization of your property, and then exchange your property for a credit that can be used in our city. With credits, you can spend as much as you like in town during free time in the evening, and I'll find you a place to stay. To be honest, there hasn't been a big name like you in the last two years. It's a pleasure to serve you. ”

According to Rafe's habit, Zero "snorted" and said in a slightly changed tone: "Since there is consumption, there should be a place to make money, right?"

"Absolutely. The guard laughed, "Every day as long as you keep the law, then you will get ten credits." This is the most basic income, and in addition to that, there are many ways to make money during the free time in the evening. For example, you can fight underground black boxing, or accept some special quests, or you can win the opponent's property through street challenges. In short, as long as you are strong enough, you can live well here. ”

Zero smiled grimly, "This is really a criminal's paradise. ”

So today, Zero Success has slipped into Sin City.

There are still two days left before Cinderella's execution!
