Chapter 230
The capital, the prison.
Tianzi Prison.
This is the most heavily guarded place in the prison. The prisoners captured by the "Suzaku Project" are now imprisoned here.
The four clerks and the Tianzi Prison Master are all masters of the late foundation building stage or above.
The five of them take turns to ensure that there are at least two late foundation building masters in the Tianzi Prison at the same time.
This does not include the four foundation building masters transferred by Yuan Shang.
Facing a group of prisoners whose strongest is no more than the middle foundation building stage, this configuration is enough.
Just after midnight——
Suddenly, there were subtle sounds in the Tianzi Prison.
The two clerks on duty tonight.
One is Lao Gu, and the other is Lao Yuan.
The two of them, together with the original Lao Cao and Lao Huang, have all been promoted step by step from the Renzi Prison. Not only are they powerful, but they have also been in the prison for nearly a hundred years.
Almost at the same time.
The two noticed something strange inside the prison.
Without hesitation, they activated the protective formation of the Tianzi Prison.
In an instant, the power of the formation was added to the cells to prevent the demons imprisoned in the Tianzi Prison from escaping.
The prisoners here are all demon cultivators in the late stage of foundation building.
They were arrested by the Demon Suppression Department. If they were allowed to break out of the prison, the result can be imagined!
The formation of the Tianzi Prison was triggered.
The prison masters outside and the Imperial Household Department will get the news first.
It won't be long before the reinforcements arrive.
After Lao Gu activated the formation, his consciousness quickly swept to the source of the previous abnormal movement, and finally locked onto a dark insect.
"Is that... a mechanical beast?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the original insect suddenly proliferated rapidly, giving birth to a brand new insect, until it crashed into the prison formation.
The formation immediately erupted with a violent noise.
"This is the Mechanical Insect King, from the Gongshu Immortal Clan of Daliang, known as the strongest mechanical beast that can break the formation. We must control it as soon as possible and not let it explode in the prison."
Lao Yuan recognized the origin of this thing, and his spiritual consciousness quickly overflowed, accurately locking the mechanical insect separated by the Insect King.
The magic power followed the spiritual consciousness, like a thin thread, pulling the mechanical insects closer.
He controlled the strength, and these mechanical insects did not explode directly.
But Lao Yuan also had no time to care about him.
Lao Gu suddenly realized.
He knew the operating principle of this "Mechanical Insect King", which was equivalent to using a foundation-building real person to temporarily pull the mechanical insects, so as to prevent the mechanical insects from attacking the formation.
The intentions of the person behind the scenes have been exposed.
They are preparing to use the "Mechanical Insect King" to contain the foundation-building real person of the prison.
If both himself and Lao Yuan are deeply involved in it, this will be completely as the other party wants.
Thinking of this, Lao Gu immediately thought of handing this matter over to the prison guards, who would be responsible for restraining the mechanical bugs.
But at this moment.
The formation of the Renzi Prison below was also activated, and Lao Cao's voice came.
"Someone is attacking the prison guard, everyone be alert!"
Then, there was a shout of killing from inside and outside.
Lao Gu thought of what happened tonight, the sudden appearance of the "mechanical bug king" and the premeditated foreign forces, the timing was too coincidental.
Especially the "mechanical bug king".
With the strictness of the prison, it is absolutely impossible to bring it in temporarily.
This means that there is a traitor inside the prison!
Moreover, this person may be in the Tianzi Prison.
Lao Gu's eyes swept over Lao Yuan and met a pair of eyes that were also suspicious.
It is obvious that the two people are thinking of the same thing.
He knew that Lao Yuan liked to tinker with the art of brewing wine, while he was the best at playing chess, so he immediately said, "We have been friends for a hundred years, and it is meaningless to be suspicious of each other."
"I am willing to swear a poisonous oath. If I betray the warden, I will never win chess in my life!"
Lao Yuan raised his eyebrows and replied, "If I betray the warden, I will never be able to brew wine again."
"It's great!"
Lao Gu laughed loudly, "You and I will work together today to find out the thief behind the scenes."
The other foundation builders present took action and restrained the mechanical insects one by one.
Lao Gu came to the place where the group of prisoners were imprisoned, but saw that the surface of the warden's building had been broken, and there was a force remaining in the gap of the formation.
"Curse..."
The most proficient in this among their wardens are Lao Cao and Lao Huang.
Now Lao Cao is still maintaining the overall situation in the Human Prison.
The identity of the betrayer is very obvious.
"Old Huang, what you did is really unkind..."
Old Gu walked into the prison and looked out, only to see darkness.
Obviously --
This was not a spur-of-the-moment decision.
Old Huang had been the warden for such a long time, even after two wardens left, no one would suspect him.
Today, Lao Huang's incident happened.
I'm afraid that in the future, all of them, the clerks, will be implicated by him.
At this point, it's impossible for him to get Lao Huang back.
The best plan now is to stop the loss as much as possible, and not let the demon cultivators escape in the chaos, further expanding the guilt of the prison warden.
...
Outside the capital.
Lao Huang temporarily sealed a group of prisoners in the talisman, and kept rushing away from the capital.
But not long after.
A formation plate fell from the sky, directly blocking Lao Huang's way.
Yuan Shang's figure appeared.
In addition to him, there are a group of masters of the Demon Suppression Department who are on high alert. This place has become a net specially prepared for Lao Huang.
Among them, there are two old acquaintances of Lao Huang.
It is Lao Zhang and Lao Li from the Dizi Prison, but at this moment, the two are dressed like charlatans.
Seeing this, Old Huang narrowed his eyes: "Did you two figure out my identity?"
The two did not directly respond to his question.
Old Li had a calm face: "Old Huang, eating and smashing the pot is the worst. You just left, but let the entire prison bear the blame for you."
"Old Zhang and I are just setting things right now."
Hearing this, Old Huang smiled: "You are right, I am indeed ashamed of my colleagues in the prison."
"I originally thought of leaving today, but it seems that I can't leave."
Yuan Shang gradually closed the formation, his tone cold.
"Huang Zhouping, your clan has been under the rule of my Daqian for generations. After entering the prison, the Demon Suppression Department has never treated you unfairly."
"Why did you betray!"
Old Huang sneered: "I have never been loyal, so how can I betray?"
"Since I can't leave today, then I won't leave!"
After he finished speaking, he took out the talisman containing the prisoner in his hand and crushed it directly.
Accompanied by screams.
He did not hesitate to expose his identity, and all the prisoners brought out from the prison were killed.
At the same time, a burning breath burst out from Lao Huang's body, rising rapidly.
"Phoenix Emperor, Zhou Ping, a descendant of the Zhou family, prays for help from the Phoenix Emperor!"
Seeing this scene, Yuan Shang's face changed drastically.
"He wants to summon the golden elixir beast of the previous dynasty to come, go!"
The people present retreated one after another.
Not long after they left, a ball of phoenix fire fell from the sky, tearing through the night, and the sparks fell to the ground and turned into an endless sea of fire.
Lao Huang took advantage of the situation to escape, and his whereabouts are unknown.
