Chapter 119 The Undead Legion shows its power for the first time and attacks the prison!

In the Dinahua Prison, at nine o'clock every morning, the deputy warden would patrol the prison with several subordinates to show his authority.

The entire prison is like a small castle and is heavily guarded.

There are always hundreds of soldiers patrolling here, and the prison has the same magic barrier as the palace, which does not allow any spells below the sixth level to be used.

As the largest prison in Susaytany, it not only holds serious criminals, but also all political prisoners.

For the kingdom's rulers, the most vicious prisoners are not important; it is the political prisoners who must not be allowed to escape.

Whenever the deputy warden walked by, the prisoners imprisoned behind the iron bars, even the most vicious ones, would fall silent.

The deputy warden was very satisfied with his "prestige".

He earned his prestige through fighting. If anyone disobeyed him, he would torture them to death.

Various tortures such as breaking legs, skinning, and gouging out eyes are common in this prison.

It doesn't matter even if the prisoner is accidentally killed, no one will stand up for these serious criminals.

If anyone dared to disobey him, he would torture and kill that person in front of other prisoners using all kinds of cruel means to satisfy his inner distortion.

In this prison, he was like a king in his palace, patrolling his territory.

Oh, no, he can only be the Prime Minister, because the King is the Warden.

Passing by the cell where Lord Cavendish was, the deputy warden took a look inside.

However, he did not speak to the once powerful earl.

This earl was in the charge of the warden himself.

The Count seems to have mastered some secret, and the warden is torturing him.

As deputy warden of the prison, he was not a high-ranking official in the Susaytane political system.

Therefore, he knew very well that there were some secrets that he was better not to ask about. The more he knew, the faster he might die.

At this moment, a trance flashed across the deputy warden's eyes, and without even noticing it, he sent a young crow into the cell.

Earl Cavendish, who was leaning against the wall in his cell with his head down, noticed the crow.

His eyes flickered and he remained silent.

After the deputy warden and the jailer left, the small crow finally said, "Father."

Lord Cavendish suddenly raised his head and looked at the crow, and asked doubtfully, "Deya?"

"it's me."

"You, you turned into a crow and ran into the prison?"

Transfiguration is not a particularly magical ability in the magical world, and almost all druids can do it.

"Don't worry, this is not my real body. It's just the medium I use to pass on the message."

Deya's words made Earl Cavendish breathe a sigh of relief.

It would have been better if Deya hadn’t come in personally. The anti-magic barrier here is too powerful. Unless it is a seventh-ring spell, the caster here is just like an ordinary person.

This permanent anti-magic barrier is expensive, but it must be built by every country.

Royal palaces, government offices, prisons, etc. are all places where such anti-magic devices are placed.

Deya looked at his father in front of him through the crow's eyes.

This was the first time in Deya's memory that he had seen Earl Cavendish in such a miserable state.

His beard was untidy and it seemed he hadn't had a cut in who knows how long. His hair was also a mess like a chicken coop.

The count was only wearing the same thin clothes as the other prisoners. The clothes were tattered and one could see wounds of varying sizes on his body.

Some of the wounds were bleeding, and some were covered with scars, which showed that the Earl had been abused here.

"You are a six-ringed Barrier Knight. Is there a barrier in this prison that prohibits mythical power?"

Deya was puzzled.

If such a barrier really existed, he would definitely study it carefully.

“The power of myth cannot be stopped. I still have the power of myth now, but I have no strength at all. Even if I have the power of myth, I cannot use it.

The prison will mix huge amounts of poison into the food. This poison will deprive people of their physical strength. If you don’t eat, you will starve to death, but as long as you eat, you will become like me.

Most of the serious criminals in this prison are extraordinary professionals, and their abilities are restricted by these poisons."

Earl Cavendish explained to Deya how the prison worked.

Deya nodded in understanding, but now was not the time to talk about this, so he quickly asked, "What happened, father? How did the king catch you?
"Could it be that you...were discovered to have embezzled the kingdom's property?"

Earl Cavendish shook his head heavily and said, "His Majesty the King arrested me for no reason. He just wanted to kill me, the leader of the parliamentary faction, to intimidate the parliamentary faction."

Deya said incredulously: "Isn't the king afraid of killing you, which would cause the entire parliamentary nobles to rebel, or is His Majesty already prepared?"

Earl Cavendish said solemnly: "Deya, you must remember that for those in power, especially those in the position of the king, do not use your logic to think about their behavior."

Deya's heart trembled, and he suddenly thought of the various videos he had watched before traveling through time.

The leaders of those strange small countries, and even the emperors of the feudal dynasties of ancient countries, many of their behaviors seem mentally ill to normal people.

But the irony is that normal people can only work like slaves, while those with mental illnesses are at the top and hold power.

Therefore, people who are able to be superior to others are not necessarily really capable or smarter than others.

This world is actually just a huge makeshift team.

Novels still need some basic logic, but reality has no logic at all.

"I understand, Father."

Deya nodded heavily.

This was also a warning to me.

When facing some people, never think with a normal mindset.

Because my thinking is based on the overall situation and normal logic.

But some people just don't consider the overall situation and don't follow logic. They are just pure "tyrants" and do whatever they want!

"Then you embezzled the kingdom's property..."

"I admitted it voluntarily."

Lord Cavendish said: “…the king’s aim is to kill me.

I told the king that I had used various tricks to swindle the national reserve gold coins from the treasury, and told him that the gold coins were still hidden in Abranah.

That was a lot of money. The king didn’t dare to kill me, so he had to torture me to force me to tell him where the gold coins were hidden. That’s how I survived.”

Deya had to admire his father's quick wit.

If my father had not used this method to prevent the king from killing him, he might have died.

This also made Deya feel a little scared.

His father is almost dead, and by then he might cry and turn his father into an undead creature, making him crawl out of the ground to kill the king for revenge.

“Deya, please leave here. Your magic cannot be used in this prison.

Go find your brother. I have been prepared for this ending. When I saw this crow, I guessed that the 'Son of the Dark Moon' in the World Memories was you. "

Earl Cavendish stared at the crow in front of him and said, "If you can have an undead army like the one in Memories of the World, then taking Susetani will be a piece of cake.

You don't have to worry about my life or death. I have actually sent those gold coins out of Abrana a long time ago. I will tell you the location. You can take them out and send them to Cavendish Territory to use as military expenses.

I only ask you to promise me one thing. After you take Susaitani, you will become king. Your brother is not fit to be king. I have told him about this and he expressed his support for you!"

This was what Earl Cavendish was most thankful for.

Neither of his two sons is power-hungry, so there will be no discord among the brothers.

Deya interrupted Earl Cavendish and said, "Father, you sent the gold coins out? In other words, you have a secret passage to the outside world in Abrana?"

“Yes, that is an underground road that no one knows about. You can also leave from there.”

"As long as there is a passage to the outside world, that's enough!" Deya made a decision immediately.

What he had been struggling with was how to escape from Abranah after rescuing his father.

As the capital of Susetani, there are elite troops stationed here. There are two seven-ring strongmen in the open, and it is unknown whether there are other seven-ring masters besides them.

Therefore, both the escape routes on the ground and in the sky are dangerous. If he were besieged by these people, Deya didn't think he would be able to escape with his current strength.

But if there is a secret passage underground, then there will be no problem.

Earl Cavendish wanted to say something, but seeing Deya's firm tone, he swallowed his words back.

"There is one more thing. The most powerful person in this prison should be the warden. How strong is he?"

Deya asked again.

"Five rings. His strength is only five rings at most."

His father's affirmation made Deya nod secretly.

This is just as he thought.

In Susetani, anyone with six rings of mythical power can become a high-ranking officer in the army. There is no need to be a mediocre warden here.

If the warden's strength is only five rings, then there will be no problem.

"Father, tell me the entrance to the underground road you mentioned. I need to design a passage from the prison to there."

"Okay, I'll give you another address and you go there to meet two people who will get things done."

"Who?"

"The president of the Black Seal Brotherhood, and you know Celtic, the butler of our Cavendish family."

……

The next day—

In a breakfast shop in Abrana, Old John was tidying up the shop as usual.

It is already nine o'clock in the morning, and most people have finished their breakfast and started their day's work.

In this breakfast restaurant with tables and chairs placed on the street, there were several guests chatting while eating.

Old John knew that those people were the jailers of the nearby Dinahua Prison.

While others are busy working, they can still sit here and chat.

"These civil servants have such a comfortable life."

Old John grumbled.

Compared to these poor working people who are busy from dawn to dusk.

The civil servants in Abram always have very few working hours every day and have plenty of time to do their own things.

And with this small amount of work, there is still a considerable salary, which makes Old John very envious.

He also hopes that his son can get into a good university and become a civil servant after graduation.

Even if he couldn't compare with those noble lords, it was better than being busy and miserable like him every day just for a few Lotti.

"I heard that several earls in the border areas have all taken up arms?"

"You heard correctly. The news is confirmed. I have a relative who does business near Cavendish Territory. He saw that there might be a war there, so he ran back to Abrana in fear."

"Do you think it is true that Earl Cavendish embezzled state property?"

"Who cares if it's true or not? Anyway, the Earl is in prison now. Haven't you seen him?"

“They all said that it was Prime Minister Palin who deceived the king and framed Earl Cavendish, which led to the Earl being sent to prison.

Those earls of the border territories rose up in rebellion just because of this matter. If His Majesty the King had released the earls, there might not have been so many problems. "

"Let's not talk too much about this kind of thing. We are just prison guards. Don't think too much."

The two jailers were talking while eating the hamburger-like breakfast in their hands.

"Oh, I really don't want a war. Will those earls attack Abram?"

"Haha, you think too much. Archduke Ferdinand and Duke Frederick both support His Majesty the King. They have issued severe condemnations against those earls.

The territories of the two grand dukes are right in the way of the earls, and I don’t think the earls can get past the Duke.”

The jailer's words temporarily reassured his other colleague.

"I hope so. Eh? Look, what's that in the sky?"

In the distance, suddenly, dense black spots were flying towards them. Those black spots were flying at an extremely fast speed and soon passed over the sky above their heads.

It was not until then that the two jailers discovered that those black spots were all crows!

The Dinahua Prison is like a fortress in the city, with soldiers patrolling on the top of the city all the time.

They were standing high enough and noticed the appearance of those dark spots earlier.

"What are those things? Someone, hurry up and inform the warden."

The soldiers standing on the top of the city watched the black spots approaching and shouted loudly.

"It's just a flock of birds. You're going to report this to the warden for such a thing. Do you want to die?"

Another soldier had good eyesight and could tell at a glance that those flying over were a group of black crows.

Seeing that it was just a group of crows, everyone felt much more relieved.

But just then, the crows flew over the top of the castle and suddenly dropped three balls of green goo.

"What the hell is this?! Slime?"

The soldiers subconsciously retreated, looking in confusion at the three green, mud-like objects that had fallen on the top of the city wall and exuded a rotten smell.

Suddenly, a green object suddenly jumped up and pounced on a soldier.

The soldier didn't react at all, and was pounced on by the green unidentified object, which wrapped him up in its body.

The soldier made a 'humming' sound, and under the horrified gaze of others, his body was actually corroded by the green unknown object. In the blink of an eye, the man's body seemed to turn into blood and turned into a ball of green unknown substance!
"Everyone be careful, these are some unknown monsters!"

The soldiers screamed in fear, drew the swords at their waists, and slashed at the unknown object fiercely.

The sharp sword easily cut one of the unknown substances into two halves.

But before the soldier could feel happy, a piece of the unknown substance in front of him was inexplicably missing.

Hundreds of thousands or even millions of microbial undead creatures that are invisible to humans rushed into the bodies of these soldiers through their mouths and noses, carried by the wind.

In an instant, these soldiers felt weak all over and dizzy as if they were infected with a serious illness.

Then, those microorganisms parasitized in their bodies, devoured their bodies, assimilated their flesh and blood, and then reproduced these people into their own kind.

The intense pain from inside out made people scream out loud.

After a while, pieces of green unidentified objects appeared on the top of the city. They gathered together and turned into a worm-shaped monster!

The crows in the sky also gathered at this time. Dozens of meters away from the prison gate, Deya's figure slowly emerged from the flock of crows.

He looked at the door in front of him and raised his hand. A mist rose behind him. In the thick mist, a bone dragon's head stretched out!
"Dragon Flame!"

The bone dragon opened its mouth and spewed out a breath of acid!

“Sizzle—”

The prison's several-meter-high metal gate could not withstand the acid breath of a seven-ring dragon.

With a sizzling sound, white smoke came out of the door, and the metal door was completely corroded.

Deya took out his pocket watch and took a look at it: "Now, the five-minute countdown begins."

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge explosion was heard inside the prison, shaking the entire prison.

All anti-magic barriers in the prison are ineffective at this moment!
In the thick fog behind Deya, an undead army was slowly walking out. The cold breath of death caused the temperature to drop sharply. The eyes of the god of death looked towards the prison.
