Chapter 1 The Secret in the Dark(2/2)
This is the concentration of super criminals - the real crime nest.
As soon as I arrived at the bottom of the prison, the warm cheers shocked the church envoy.
"What's going on?"
Malfi looked at the prison guard with fear. Could it be that the prisoner had a riot?!
"Don't worry, it's the prison arena. Today is the monthly release time, and prisoners gather in the arena to watch the game, which is their only fun."
The jailer fluently opened a large iron door painted with red paint on the wall, and waves of shouting were heard from the dark gate.
With doubts, Malfi walked into the iron gate and found that there were many prisoners gathered here.
In the center of the circular hall similar to the Colosseum, a group of prisoners in white prisoners' uniforms were besieging a middle-aged man. With a weak enemy, he was very embarrassed to avoid the enemy's attack. The red blood that kept flowing out of the trajectory of despair was dragged out from the ground of Bai Yingshi.
A man lost so much blood and had no chance of life. Not only did the poor prisoner not give up his final struggle, but even the besieged people had no intention of stopping the attack.
The black prisoners around were all screaming excitedly for killing and blood.
"Why don't you stop them? Private fights and murders are already illegal. Why does prison allow such a thing to happen?" A temple warrior who followed the great priest asked angrily.
"The criminal law of the Ming Su Empire does not allow private fights or murders. But this is Grig, the only place in which the imperial law allows murder in the territory of the empire." The jailer's expressionless answer seemed to be commonplace; "Which of these repetitive crimes is not a murder case, what does it matter if he dies?"
"How can one underestimate human life? If a prisoner is considered a life, it is also a life. The goddess of light will never allow such a thing..." The great priest rebuked stiffly, and the prison guard's rebuttal was interrupted by another voice before it could be said.
"It's a pity that this is Grig, and the sun's light cannot shine into the dark dungeon."
A delicate girl in a black robe appeared in the darkness in the corner of the wall, and her appearance immediately made the temple warriors nervous. They had no idea when this person had come so close, and she had been there all the time.
The prison guard stepped back in a panic look, as if he was afraid that the weak girl would fall when the wind blew.
"Please be the special envoy from Estoni. Those old men in the Holy Capital still remember our group of scum who have been abandoned by God."
It looks like a girl is not old, but she will never be able to mature at this age.
Unlike the regretful look of the temple warrior, a strange light flashed in the eyes of the great priest, so fast that it disappeared before they could catch it.
"For this amnesty, the Grand Secretary only approved sixteen places."
"There are only sixteen... Kofi, go and call the little guys who came in this year." After taking the Tehre Order from the Great God's Lord's hand, the girl frowned and waved her hand. A burly man behind her turned around and left.
Just when the envoys were all surprised that the girl could command other prisoners at will, the man who left had already returned, followed by several teenage children, two of whom were seven or eight years old, but the dresses that were supposed to be beautiful were so dirty that they could not see the color.
After the children stood one by one, the girl suddenly found that there were only five people, missing the youngest one.
"Where is Ellie?"
"I died last night." The oldest boy, Tammo, spoke, with no sad expression on his childish face, or it should be called numbness.
"Then... find a young one to make up for it again." The girl sighed and asked the child to leave the red iron gate. When she was about to instruct Kofi to find another child, the great priest Malfi smiled and grabbed her sleeve.
"Just you."
“Eh?”
The girl in black seemed to have not reacted, and her expression was dull for a moment.
"The last candidate for pardon, don't you want to go back to the outside world and live again?" Malfi looked at the girl in front of him with traces, and smiled satisfied again.
Each time the candidates for pardon are always divided into four categories, except for the younger children, and also for women, the elderly and men. This is a special pardon that only occurs when each generation of new emperors ascends the throne.
"Bilfett would not agree." Understanding Malfi's meaning, the girl immediately shook her head and refused the prisoners' crazy death exemption. She seemed to be unmoved by the proposal.
"You guys go find the remaining candidates, I'll wait here."
He believed that the other party could not refuse this temptation, so the great priest signaled the temple warrior to leave first.
Under the leadership of the prison guards, the temple warriors walked away one after another.
After a while, there was no other sound in the entire corridor except for the excited roaring of prisoners from the closed iron gate from time to time.
hey-hey……
Seeing the girl about to fall into her palm, Malfi smiled proudly in her heart.
Although he is an envoy to spread light, the great priests from ordinary merchant families have dark sides that ordinary people do not know.
On the surface, he loves to ravage those beautiful girls the most. Although the person in front of him looks a little ordinary, he is also quite good before leaving the Eastern Continent.
Just as his fat hand was about to put on the girl's slender waist, the other party alertly dodged.
"What do you mean?"
"Hmph, stop pretending. I still want to keep a clean body when I enter the city of Death Prisoners. Do you think I am a three-year-old child. If you obey, I will never treat you badly." Malfi grinned and forced the girl backing away. At this moment, he had no holy appearance of praying in the temple. His expression was no different from those of Death Prisoners who cheered in the duel arena.
"Ha... As expected, as Maitaro said, Your lord, your despicable heart is no different from the prisoners in this prison. It can even be said that you are worse than them. At least they will not hide their hopes, nor will they exercise their sinful activities in the cloak of the loving charity of the church."
"you!!"
Malfi stared at the girl in black in front of her in anger and horror. At this time, she was no longer as pitiful as she had. Her dark eyes were full of sarcasm. Wisdom and calculation replaced the original innocence. The smile at the corner of her mouth made Malfi suddenly feel like an ice cave.
"Stupid girl, I won't teach you a lesson!"
The angry and embarrassed priest raised the Sid staff in his hand and knocked it down on the girl's head.
The person who was supposed to fall in the pool of blood called Malfi so surprised that he couldn't speak. His powerful punch was not only easily flashed by the opponent, but also took away the scepter of the priest who symbolized his identity.
"Give you peace in the name of Garcia."
A clear voice echoed in the cold prison. Malfi was immediately trapped by the bound spell. Not only was the magic in his body unable to be used, but his hands and feet were unable to move freely.
Garcia, the moon god, one of the Dark Lords, is the only one who can exercise his power. In other words, this girl who seems harmless and who has had unreasonable thoughts is actually a dark priest!!
"Oh my god, I finally settled those difficult guys, which hurt the old man. It seems that my skills have really declined. I used to kill ten temple knights in the past in just a blink of an eye."
The lean and capable Medaro approached quietly, holding two unconscious temple warriors in his hand.
The burly man who had previously left the name of Kofi also brought back a temple warrior who could not be turbulent.
The warrior wearing armored armor seemed as light as in the hands of the prisoner.
Looking at the black figures appearing in the corridor one after another, Malfi's idea of relying on his men to rescue failed.
Seeing that all the temple warriors were caught without missing a single leak, they were all lying on the ground motionless, not knowing whether they were dead or alive.
Once again, the great priest regretted his reckless behavior.
If he hadn't dispersed his power, how could he be easily defeated with the strength of the temple warrior? At least he still had a chance to call for help from the prison guards.
In the darkness, the death row prisoners' eyes were particularly bright in the dim prison, which made Malfie suddenly have the idea of falling into the wolf's den. The head wolf of this group of ferocious prison wolf was the girl who was called "Moya" by the prisoners.
"How is the matter done?"
"Everything is right, including the jailer outside, was also brought down."
"Very good, Lord Priest, it's time for you to play your role." The girl Moya quickly took off Malfi's priest's robe and put it on. She was holding a golden staff and she was quite as priestly as a priest.
Death prisoners put on armor stripped from the temple warriors, and no one could meet them and the infamous prisoner Grig.
"You...you want to escape from prison?!"
"It's not that you think, but that's going on. It's been a long time before you arrived in Grig. As for you, Master, I will carefully spread all the evil deeds you just now. It's not easy to pursue us under the dissatisfaction of the people with the church. Compared with the fugitive, the church will pay more attention to you, the great master. If you don't see me, we will never see you!!"
Pulling down the hood, Moya and the dead prisoners laughed and left, leaving the only awake Malfi sleeping on the cold ground of the prison with the temple warriors who fainted.
"Password."
The guards responsible for guarding each level stopped the envoy who came up shortly after they stopped.
"The warden's beard."
The death row prisoners who were successfully using the bribe were disguised as priests and temple warriors quickly passed the levels.
Using the excuse of being attacked by prisoners, the Grieg jailer who was guarding the ground gate closed the thick stone gate.
******************************************
In the red sunset, the cunning death row prisoner disappeared into the end of the vast wilderness with a winning smile.
When the warden came back from the tavern with great pleasure, he heard the vivid description of the clerk, how the great priest left in blood.
"How can you be sure that those who left are priests and temple warriors?"
"This..." When asked by the boss, the secretary became vague.
He did not see the face under the priest's hood.
"not good!!"
Bilfit, who was already a little confused, suddenly remembered something. When he led his hands to the bottom prison, he saw not only the jailer lying all over the floor, but also the unclothed priests and temple warriors.
"After all, let her escape..."
