Chapter 184: The First Prisoner

Just as the desert can't get rid of the dryness, the rainforest can't get rid of the dampness, and what the black prison can never get rid of is the ubiquitous cold smell.

Even in the Black Prison Castle.

Through the heavy stone walls, through the several exquisitely carved runes, and through the powerful magical barriers, that cold aura still lingered around every wizard who appeared in this world.

There was a breeze in the hallway, and the cold in the wind was especially strong.

A cold wind blew, and Mai Dong shivered and woke up.

She muttered quietly. On one side was the captain's broad and warm chest, and on the other side it was as cold as drying in the ice and snow, and even through the heavy cloak, the chill could still penetrate in.

There was no way for the little witch to continue sleeping.

She poked her head out of the captain's cloak and glanced out.

"Where?" she asked, confused.

"It's coming, it's coming. You can sleep a little longer. Zhang Boren patted her head comfortingly, signaling that she could continue to rest for a while. The little witch didn't put her head back into the cloak as he had asked, but her big eyes flashed at the gray hair of the black-robed wizard leading the way.

"Zhang Yu?" she greeted in a cheerful voice.

The wizard in charge of the guidance turned his head, a gentle smile in his eyes.

"Mai Dong. He nodded and said softly, "Professor Li Qihuang is in the lounge in front...... He had just prepared a batch of high-grade recovery potions today. You'll be able to regain your strength in no time. ”

The little witch, also known as Mai Dong, blinked indifferently, her eyes slipped away from the wizard who led the way, and looked left and right: "Is this the Black Prison? It feels similar to the basement of the Ishikawa family......

The young swordsman, who had been silent all along, finally spoke.

"There's a big difference. His voice matched the aura of the castle, the same indifference, but with a little more patience: "The basement of the Ishikawa family will not hold so many demons. ”

Mai Dong finally noticed the wooden doors on both sides of the corridor with small wind tunnels.

"There are demons behind those doors?" her voice was full of surprise, "I thought they were all locked in a very tight, very tight place...... It's so close to us!"

"The people here are low-risk prisoners. Zhang Yu turned his head and explained with a smile: "And it doesn't have to be a demon." Some sorcerers with great sins will also be imprisoned in this place. ”

"Low-risk prisoner?" the phrase intrigued the witch in the group, who approached one of the cells and glanced at the wizard leading the group.

Zhang Yu stopped and smiled at her, but did not stop her move.

The witch looked at the cell in reassurance.

Inside was a slightly larger single room through a narrow wind tunnel, with blue-black walls carved with various intricate runes, a soft carpet underfoot, and a few white candles hanging overhead. But that's not what surprised the witch the most.

What surprised the witch the most was that the cell had bookshelves, desks, sofas, coffee tables, and even a single bed that looked warm. At the head of the bed is a pink rabbit playing with the radish in his hand.

If she didn't know it was a prison cell, she would even think she was looking at a wizard's study.

Behind the desk sat a mild-mannered witch, dressed in a dark red robe, with her legs bent between the wide armchairs, barefoot, and a handbook of Potions handouts, looking at it with relish.

Zhu Ling felt that her face looked a little familiar.

But before she could think about it, the prisoner in the room seemed to notice the watching eyes from outside the wind tunnel, and she put down the textbook in her hand, smiled and waved her hand out the door, and said hello.

The witch outside the door immediately shrank her head in fright.

Then she realized the sense of disobedience in the scene she had just seen.

She ...... Here......" The visitor pointed to the cell and then to the top of his head, his face a little confused, so he seemed to stutter a little when he spoke.

"What do you see?" Zhang Boren also leaned over curiously.

The swordsman named Ishikawa might have wanted to see it too, but he was too embarrassed to huddle with the captain, so he could only stare at the back of the captain's head, and the dwarf Balin didn't mind squeezing it, but he was too short to stand on tiptoe to reach the handle of the gate, let alone the narrow wind tunnel above the handle.

This made him hold his arms, so indignant that even his head turned a little red.

Zhang Boren quickly withdrew his gaze.

"That's a witch!" his voice was full of surprise, "definitely a witch, untainted...... Children can see this. ”

"I didn't see it!" Mai Dong, who was hiding in his arms, protested loudly, trying to stick out his head to take a look, but was held down by his own captain.

"Ever. The wizard in charge of the guidance replied softly, "She used to be a witch. Now just a prisoner. ”

"Why?"

"Because she secretly indulged the two demons to leave, and at the same time leaked the secrets of the black prison. Danhag's Supreme Court sentenced her to 50 years in prison without the possibility of parole. ”

"But aren't all these criminals in Danhag's prison, and why is she being held in a black prison?"

"She used to be a guard at the Black Jail. Zhang Yu replied simply.

There was silence in the hallway.

Until the swordsman named Ishikawa raised his confusion: "...... Do you think she looks familiar?"

"yes, yes, I just thought it was a delusion. Zhu Ling nodded immediately.

That's because she used to be a practical instructor at First University, where she was responsible for the practical guidance of some graduates. Zhang Yu turned around and continued to walk towards the depths of the ancient castle: "You may not have taken her class, but it doesn't prevent you from feeling that she is familiar." ”

The hunters of the Kunpeng Hunting Team had to give up the onlookers in front of the cell and keep up with Zhang Yu's pace.

The wizard's voice sounded in the depths of the corridor, mixed with the yin wind that pierced the hall, and it was extremely cold: "...... I don't know if you have any impressions of the name Nikita. She used to be Nikita's instructor. After the accident, because of that major mistake, she was stripped of her teaching position by the school and arranged to be placed in a black prison as a guard. Then, in the black prison, she secretly released an infected person with a special identity. ”

"I've heard about it...... The infected person was her daughter. The witch in the group interrupted.

Zhang Yu's steps paused.

"She knows, you know, we all know," his voice was calm, but with a bit of cruelty in the calm, "what happens when a wizard is infected by a demon...... Especially since the wizard was still a child. Choices are always difficult, and we must take responsibility for our choices. ”
