Vol 3 Chapter 54: Spark Back (middle)

If you look at the entire Spock Prison from the air, you can find that the layout of the prison is quite similar to the ring and ring entertainment city in a modern movie. The entire Spock prison is made up of countless rings.
In the center of the prison, which is also the most extensive part of the prison, it belongs to the detention area, where about 15,000 prisoners are held. More than 40% of them are quite extraordinary samurai, and even a small number of magicians.
Almost all powerful senior criminals in the entire empire will be sent here to be heavily guarded. In addition to those regular defense arrangements, there is also a team of elite knights and some senior warriors.
It's just that their task is to guard the prison, and other things don't easily move.
There is only one intersection at the entrance to the detention area, and the rest are all copper walls and iron walls, covered with traps everywhere.
Out of the detention area, there is a guarded area and a buffer zone.
The two areas are blank strips linked together, with only a small number of guards guarding nearby.
Behind this blank strip is another high wall. Behind the high wall is the death zone, which extends to the outermost main wall. The entire area is full of various alchemy traps and a large number of guards.
Once a prisoner initiates a riot, the warning area will first issue an alarm, and the buffer zone will become a confrontation zone between the two sides. Large numbers of knights will flock to this area and drive prisoners back to prison.
If the prisoner is too strong to resist, the guard will retreat to the buffer wall and enter the death zone, where the prisoner will be intercepted and killed by the four lines of defense laid out at the Spark prison. As the Spark prison is located in the area of ​​the Villas Mountains, in addition to the internal prison riots in the death zone, the defense facilities also have a special function to deal with armed robbery by large-scale external forces.
In addition, the area's entrances are not a straight line.
For example, the entrance to the detention area is to the west, the entrance to the buffer zone is to the south, and the entrance to the prison is to the east.
This made it necessary for prisoners to make many more detours in this labyrinth-like prison if they wanted to escape from the passage.
Walking on this maze-like road, Xiu Yi's expression looked very leisurely. He was like a boy next door, only to see here with curiosity. He always looks at this curiosity, and then he looks at it again and again. Always wanted to go up and touch, and watched closer.
The guard had to remind him again and again: "Be careful, Master Dardanelle, you can't go there."
"what happened?"
"That's the trap zone. If you get there, no one can save you."
"What about here?"
"Oh, here leads to a World of Warcraft. Every night, we will put out some Warcraft, they wander around in a fixed area. These Warcraft are not necessarily powerful, but they have a very sensitive sense of smell and are a very good early warning tool."
"So it is." Xiu shrugged.
He pointed to the door not far away: "I guess there is a cafeteria."
The guard was helpless: "No, Master Dardaniel, the cafeteria is on the other side. The place you are referring to leads to the magic tower and is the area where the soldiers enter and exit. Except for the main entrance to the prison, this is the only small door that can be accessed. It ’s designed for insiders to go in and out. Of course, there ’s no cumbersome inspection procedure like the main entrance.

"That's it. Strange, it looks big here, but why didn't I see the criminal?"
"You are now in the safe zone, Master Dardanelle. The Spark prison is divided into detention areas, buffer zones, guard areas, safe areas, and death zones. The outermost line is the death zone. Once any prisoner rushes to death, Area, we will kill them immediately. The safe area is for viewing, and there is a distance from the detention area. It needs to pass through the buffer zone and the guard area to reach. "
"So I can't see the prisoners?"
"Actually ..." The guard hesitated a bit: "This is not allowed. You know that Spock Prison is not a scenic spot, although many nobles come to visit it every year because of its fame, but unless necessary, Otherwise, the area behind the buffer zone will not be open to any outsiders. I ca n’t take you there with the special consent of Lord Earl. The establishment of the safe zone is actually to meet the needs of some people, but for the interior, guests are not Right to enter. "
Xiu Yi nodded: "It must be said that it aroused my great interest. If the previous play was just boring, then I have indeed treated it as a good scenic area. I am eager I heard the wailing voices of the prisoners under the whip, and seeing their miserable faces, I would like to know how people behave when they are in pain. Maybe I should talk to Lord Earl and look at the face of that painting , He might make an exception. "
With that said, Xiu Yi turned back to the small white building.
After a while, Xiu Yi came out with a smile, and there was a small internal pass on his body: "What's your name, guard?"
"Owen, Master Dardanelle."
"So Irving soldier, your warden has agreed to my request, and now I can come in and out at will, do you have any questions?" Xiu pointed at the pass on his body.
"No problem, Master Dardanelle. But I hope that you can really appreciate everything as you say. Hope that will not make you appetite."
"It's really interesting, your warden said to me just now." Xiu shrugged indifferently, and took out a Jinvit in the guard's hand.
Everything was as Xiu expected, so that the warden did not hesitate to use the power in his hand to open the door to Xiu Yi so that his painting would not be taken away by Xiu Yi.
He certainly would not have thought of what a terrible plan lies behind Xiu Yi's sunny smile.
With the approval of the warden, the guards naturally acted according to regulations. He took Xiu to a checkpoint and said to Xiu: "The rule here is that before any outsider enters, all weapons and alchemy items must be surrendered. Do not bring anything that may help the prisoner . "
"No problem." Xiu Yi nodded casually.
Xiu Yi didn't bring anything on his body, but the guards were very careful not to let go of any suspicious thing.
When the inspection fell on the ring of Xiu, Xiu said: "This is a relic left by my mother. I don't think this thing can cause any harm to the prison. I give it to you very much. Don't worry, please allow me to carry it. "
Several guards looked at each other with some hesitation. One of the guards said: "I'm sorry, Master Dardanelle, if this is an ordinary ring, it's OK. But we noticed some magical energy fluctuations on this ring. According to the rules of the prison, any belt Items with magical energy can be brought in. "
"That's a blessing from ancient times. It can protect me from evil attacks. It doesn't have any magic ability. If you don't believe it, you can try it. As far as I know, both magic attack and magic defense ability can be tested. I promise this ring, which is only blessed, does not have such ability. "Xiu Yi begged.
"So okay," the guard agreed.
After testing the ring and finding that it did not have magical attack and defense capabilities, the guards finally allowed Xiu to enter the prison with the ring.
After entering the guarded area, Irving took Xiuyi to visit everywhere. No one noticed that, sometime, there were suddenly a few small bees in the prison, flying around. They circled in the air for a week and then flew towards the Quartet.
The old jailbreak expert was facing the crystal ball in the carriage at this time, and the scout was observing the surroundings. He made clear marks on the internal structure map of the Spark prison previously obtained, indicating the defensive forces and rotation time everywhere.
In his ear was Xiu Yi's clear voice: "When do you usually eat?"
"Only after work."
"Then don't you have to work hungry?"
"It won't be too long, Master Dardanelle. We change shifts during dinner."
"What about that night? Is there any supper time?"
"Yes, there are four classes at Spark."
"That means one shift every six hours." Iger muttered softly, making a heavy time mark on the map.
Following the footsteps of the guards, Xiuyi walked through the security zone, crossed the warning zone and the buffer zone, and came to the detention zone.
The largest detention area is divided into three areas: ordinary area, recidivism area, and extremely dangerous area. The whole detention area is circularly distributed, and is surrounded by circles. As a prison for recidivism, every year, a group of guys who were lynched for not serving discipline will be dragged out. They could not have died, but only because they came to the wrong place and did not realize their environment. As a result, Encountered are the most terrible punishments in the world.
Whether in the past, present or future, prisons are not a place to transform people.
If outside the detention area, the whole body of armed guards brings a tense and solemn atmosphere to this prison, then inside the detention area, there can only be a cool and horrifying atmosphere.
It's like an alien world far away, the iron cage made of fine iron, a barbed leather whip, a spear with splendid light, and the empty echo caused by riding boots stepping on the ground, all show the cruelty here. The cold side.
Walking in the spacious aisle outside the detention area, Xiu Yi looked around. The prisoners lay on the ground like that, their obscure eyes looked at the sky. Above them, there are barbed nail plates hanging from the top of their heads.
"As the Reims Empire, the largest prison with the largest number of detainees and the strongest guards, even the inmates in the common area come out as the number one figure. For them, we must use the strictest care, even if it is The use of magic prison cages does not guarantee absolute security. "Next to the guard was Irving explaining to Xiuyi:" The nail plate on the cage is used to deal with some stubborn guys. There are always people trying to escape, sometimes They even pretend to fool the jailer into it, and then try to rush out of the cell. For such prisoners, the Spark prison has sufficient power to execute on the spot. "
"Further forward is the recidivism zone, where the samurai and flesh-and-blood garrison are mainly guarded. These guys are very good. They can stand here year after year without knowing tiredness. Unfortunately, they are too rigid and only recognize pass cards and do not recognize people. In the past, someone had been accidentally killed by dropping a pass, but fortunately, it did not happen to us. "Leading Xiu all the way forward, the guard Irving kept introducing to Xiuyi.
Perhaps it was that King Witt who had played a role, and he was extremely attentive now.
The samurai warrior may be rigid and inflexible, but it is the most loyal existence, will not accept the benefits of others, tirelessly, do not pay, and will never betray. It is obviously a good choice to use them to watch the felons.
Xiu's eyes gradually became cold, and he looked at the puppet warriors. All the memories once flowed back into my heart like a stream of water.
That's right, these samurai warriors and flesh golems came from Purgatory Island.
Xiuyi thought that all the puppets had been sent to the battlefield, but he did not expect that there were some such puppet warriors in the Spark prison.
Looking at the cricket in front of him, the scenes on Purgatory Island reappeared in his mind. He could never forget the years he once had.
He couldn't hold back the strong ups and downs in his heart, took a few steps forward, and put his hand on one of the flesh and blood.
"Be careful!" Guard Irving could not help but screamed: "Don't mess with them, I've been given counterattack instructions, and even if you have a pass, you can't make threatening acts on it at will."
What Irving had expected was that the flesh-and-blood claw didn't do anything, and even Xiuyi's hand fell on his body, even touching his face.
Feeling the rough artificial skin like sandy skin, Xiu Yi's eyes were full of concentration. He looked at this flesh and blood gauntly, as if looking at his lover.
Whose soul is hidden under this fleshy body? Heather? Saak? Or is it another boy?
The names of the youngsters who could not be named, their souls became part of the flesh and blood, and then turned into the coldest killing machines, guarding the heavily guarded prison day and night.
Who in this world should be sent to prison?
The angry flame at the bottom of Xiu's heart was burning, and he took several deep breaths, and then he gradually recovered his calmness.
"Oh, hell, how did you do that?" The guard next to him called out in surprise.
Xiu's eyes gradually became indifferent, he said to the guards around him, "Is this flesh and blood flesh brought in within three years?"
"Yes, how do you know?"
Xiu replied coldly: "The empire has made a huge breakthrough in the production of the samurai warriors three years ago. The alchemist added a new instruction in the production of the samurai, which can obscure the behavior intentions of people. Judgment is made through the inherent mode, so there are great limitations. Next time you want to get close to these puppets, remember not to approach from the side or the rear, it will make him think you are trying to sneak it. Walk directly from his front In the past, if you acted coherently and naturally, he would judge that you were not malicious to him and would not attack you. "
"Hell, are you the maker of the samurai? So familiar with these guys?"
"A friend once told me about this, and he also had a samurai in his hand." Xiuyi replied casually.
During the conversation, his hand touching the flesh-and-blood cricket had been under the waist-belly of the flesh-and-blood cricket, and by the cover of the body, a small piece of metal was thus drawn into the flesh-and-blood corpse's body.
Just as tourists like to touch some scenery while sightseeing, Xiuyi's movements are calm and natural.
Looking at it one area at a time, a tatar warrior touched it, and a small piece of metal was placed on the tatar warriors. In an instant, they had reached the deepest part of the Spark prison.
"Master Dardanil, I suggest that your visit stop there." The guard asked again.
"Why?" Xiu asked.
"Farther forward is the extreme danger zone. Every prisoner there is very dangerous, and I'm afraid it will threaten your safety."
"I thought Spock Prison was the most rigorous and safest prison in the Empire."
"indeed so."
"So what else are we worried about? Would you like me to tell my friends when I go back, that after arriving at Spock Prison, Cissedane Danil would not even look at the prisoners in the cage in the extremely dangerous zone. Did she wince? "
"Well then, Master Dardaniel, as you wish." The guard resigned helplessly.
After walking through the spacious passageway, Xiuyi followed Irving to the extremely dangerous area.
Unlike the first two areas, the extremely dangerous area is no longer a prisoner held in an iron cage, but an airtight dark room made of thick iron plates.
In each dark room, there are only two movable baffles that can be opened up and down. One is for food and the other is for sunlight.
Xiu Yi was pleased that, even outside the dark room, there were still identification cards hanging, and each dark room was marked with the identity of the prisoner living here.
Responsible for guarding the extremely dangerous area is the demon that once made Xiu Yi hate.
These short men, with sharp blade-like skeletons all over their bodies, and horrified faces, have changed greatly since they were born. After human domestication, they are still bloodthirsty and crazy, but instead of attacking anyone at will, they have learned to follow instructions.
Unlike guards standing in the dark, they spend more time in the dark. Because of their ability to evade fighting, even Xiuyi would not have been able to detect their existence without the warning of soldier Irving.
This makes the entire extremely dangerous area appear calm and normal on the surface, secretly step by step, and murderous.
No one knows how many demons are hiding in this area, but Xiuyi believes that as long as even one prisoner escapes from the danger zone, a group of demons will emerge from the dark, waving their terrible blade arms, and cutting the enemy into one piece. Pieces of minced meat.
No wonder for so many years, no matter how many powerful prisoners are held here, no one has ever escaped from here.
The rigorous security of Spock Prison shocked Xiu Yi.
But he was more concerned at the moment that he had looked at the entire detention area and had not seen the person he was looking for.
This made him somewhat unhappy.
"Spark prison, are there only three places for prisoners?" He asked Irving.
Owen thought about it, and replied, "In fact, there is another place where prisoners are held."
"Where?"
"Dark jail, but we usually call it a punishment zone, and it's used to deal with some obedient diehards. They are extremely dangerous elements of extremely dangerous elements. We call them ... super dangerous elements."
