Chapter 59: The Rotting Prisoner in the Jail
Chapter 59: The Rotting Prisoner in the Jail
After passing the hidden corner, the mining tunnel in front no longer appeared, and he came to a fork in the road. Three forks appeared in front of him.
At this time, the guidance of the spirit candle appeared again.
【Light up the milestone candles】
[Reignited location recorded]
The three forks in the road are relatively easy to distinguish. One goes down, one goes up, and the one in the middle looks flatter.
Yuanfang did not have difficulty making a decision. After observing for a while, he chose to explore from left to right.
The first step is downward. On this road going downward, both the dust and the ore look very solid. This situation only occurs when many people walk on it frequently.
But this is not the point. The point is that the road ahead is becoming more and more compact.
Some sounds gradually attracted attention from afar.
The faint sound of collision seemed to be the sound of fighting.
After thinking for a moment, Yuanfang took out the dagger and the devil fish tail staff and continued to move forward.
Soon, he came to a relatively spacious mining area and also saw the source of the sound clearly.
Yes, it was indeed the noise caused by fighting.
A garrison captain was leading three patrol soldiers in a battle with a group of exiled prisoners.
There seemed to be some distance behind the garrison captain, and it was very likely that he was guarding something or someone.
The rioting exiled prisoners may very well have this as their goal.
Although the garrison captain and his soldiers were not at a disadvantage, the exiled prisoners were outnumbered and caused them some trouble.
After checking the information of both parties from a distance, he raised his hand and a blood stone exploded.
With a loud bang, blood exploded and the situation of the battle was instantly changed by him.
As a result, several exiled prisoners were seriously injured and fell to the ground, turning into ashes. The garrison captain also took several steps back before he could steady himself.
The exiled prisoner who was not killed by the edge impact climbed up, roared towards the distance, and then tried to turn around and attack him.
But the garrison captain and the soldiers swung their swords at this moment, interrupting the movement of some of the prisoners to exile.
In the distance, with a calm expression, the flames of war were ignited, and another charged blood stone exploded and flew out.
His target was not the exiled prisoners, but the garrison commander.
There was a bang.
The garrison captain fell to the ground after being attacked again.
At this time, Yuanfang put away his wooden stick, took out his dagger, and began to clean up the exiled prisoners who were nearby.
The cold light flashed, and the figures moved. After a few intertwined figures, several exiled prisoners fell to the ground powerlessly and turned into ashes.
He raised his hand again in the distance, and the devil fish tail staff appeared in his hand, and he condensed the blood-colored magic ball again.
At this time, the garrison captain had not even recovered from falling to the ground.
The next moment, the magic ball exploded and the garrison captain fell to the ground with a bang.
The remaining ones were just remnants of a defeated army, unable to cause any waves at all, and were finished off and dealt with from afar.
[You killed the garrison captain]
You killed the exiled prisoner.
【…】
A series of kill prompts appeared in the distance, but he didn't care. After collecting a pile of spoils, he went straight to the passage at the back.
After walking for a while, we suddenly saw the end of the soil and rocks in front of us, and it seemed that there was no more road.
But when you reach the end in the distance, you will find a vertical downward passage. There is a ladder on the stone wall, leading to the pitch-black below.
After confirming its sturdiness from a distance, he climbed down the ladder.
The ladder is very long.
It rained for several minutes before the ground emerged from the darkness in the distance.
After getting to the ground, he began to observe the situation around him.
This is a prison.
On both sides of the passage were natural cells framed by prison doors, but the cells near the periphery were empty.
However, as we advanced in the distance, we soon saw cells with people in them.
What's strange is that the exiled prisoners inside are already dead, and their bodies are in a state of decay.
Observing from a distance while moving forward.
Bada...
When he reached the cell door at the end, he suddenly stopped. He seemed to have stepped on something sticky.
When he looked down, he found a dead body lying on the ground next to him. From his attire, it was not difficult to identify that this was a [Garrison Captain].
What I just stepped on in the distance was its rotten palm.
He withdrew his foot calmly and took out a piece of iron from his flesh and blood.
[Obtained: Guraid's Law]
【Gulard's Law】
[Type: Special Items]
[Content: This criminal must be kept under strict supervision. Do not touch or even talk to him... Also, keep an eye on his condition at all times and report any abnormalities immediately.]
[Explanation: This is a special decree from Gurad, with a special message attached, which is a means of conveying orders.]
"..."
After watching it from a distance, he put it away, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
At this moment, he felt the guidance of the spirit candle again.
After following the instructions and arriving at a relatively open area, the Candle Keeper appeared again.
But this time, the candle keeper behaved unusually.
He glanced at the end of the prison, then looked into the distance and gave a reminder.
"Be careful."
This made Yuan Fang's eyes narrow slightly.
After lighting the spirit candle, Yuanfang stood up and slowly walked to the end of the prison.
Compared with other cells, the cell door here is obviously thicker and stronger.
"Huh...huh..."
Heavy breathing could be faintly heard from inside.
In addition, there were also unclear voices.
"…offer…"
However, even the "translation" given by the game only provides this little information.
Inside the prison.
Apart from the sound just now, he could not get any other information from the dark cell.
He looked at the heavy cell door and thought for a moment, then found an item dropped from the garrison captain in his inventory.
[Prison Key]
[Type: Item]
[Explanation: The key on the garrison captain is used to open the prison door.]
After inserting the key into the prison keyhole.
With a click, the cell door opened.
The heavy breathing inside suddenly disappeared.
Yuan Fang walked into the prison with a calm expression.
The candle on his body also lit up at this moment, and the faint light finally allowed him to see the face of the guy opposite him.
However, the appearance of the guy in front of him made even Yuanfang, who had seen many storms, frown.
The blackened and festered eye sockets, the bloody nose, the rotten upper and lower jaws of the mouth... all formed a sharp contrast with the pale flesh of other parts.
What's more strange is that even though it has lost its eyes, it can still accurately face the distance, making people feel that it is staring straight at them...
