Chapter 345: The outside is loose and the inside is tight, the only prisoner
The snowstorm that started in the evening did not recede slowly as time went by, but instead intensified.
This actually created a better infiltration environment for Lu Qi and Laura...
After investigating around the prison, Lu Qi soon discovered another entrance that would not alert the enemy.
Located on one side of the building, there is only half of the escape ladder left, about five or six meters above the ground.
As long as they climb up the escape ladder, they can directly reach the second-floor balcony of the building and enter the building without anyone noticing.
Therefore, the two of them timed the patrol time of the Holy Trinity team, and as soon as the team left the side of the building, they rushed out of their hiding place and came to the bottom of the escape ladder.
At a height of five to six meters, even Lu Qi and Laura, who have extraordinary physical fitness, cannot achieve it overnight.
However, this did not stump the experienced Lu Qi.
I saw him pressing his back tightly against the wall, standing in a horse stance, putting his hands in a lifting posture, placing them on his chest, and gestured to Laura:
"You go up first!"
Seeing Lu Qi's posture, Laura didn't waste any time, took a few steps back, distanced herself, and immediately rushed towards Lu Qi.
During a run-up sprint, the moment she was about to hit Lu Qi, Laura raised her right leg, stepped on the palms of Lu Qi's hands, and jumped up.
At the same time, Laura felt a huge thrust, which suddenly erupted from the soles of her feet, like a booster, pushing her whole body upwards!
Bang!
Laura easily grabbed the crossbar of the escape ladder with one hand. Laura, who was hanging on the ladder, moved quickly and immediately climbed up the ladder.
Once Laura reaches the balcony on the second floor, the next step is very simple.
Throwing down a piece of climbing rope, Lu Qi grabbed the rope and climbed up step by step, reaching the second floor balcony easily.
Just as the two men retracted the climbing rope, a group of well-equipped Holy Trinity soldiers walked slowly over from the corner of the building.
If it had been slower for a few seconds, these patrolling guards might have discovered the two people sneaking in...
Lu Qi climbed into the prison through the vent above the balcony on the second floor and turned on [Eagle Vision] again. He was surprised to find that the entire prison's defense could be described as tight on the outside and loose on the inside.
There were a lot of people guarding the building outside, but there were only two patrolling guards on the three floors inside.
Moreover, these two guys, not long after Constantine left, got together in the lobby on the second floor and started smoking and chatting.
This gave Lu Qi and Laura a chance to solve the problem together.
"The left is yours, the right is mine."
puff!
call out!
Following two subtle sounds that sounded at the same time, the two guards who were chatting and spanking one second fell down in response to the sound the next second.
However, the two people died in slightly different ways. One was shot in the head with a gun, while the other was shot in the head with an arrow...
After getting the key to the prison from each other, Lu Qi and Laura began to search the entire building to find the location of the cell.
Soon, they found a rusty iron gate in the corner of the second floor.
Using the key to open the iron door, Lu Qi and Laura finally arrived at the cell where Holy Trinity prisoners were held...
The stench, dampness, and darkness were their first impressions of the entire cell.
Under the dim light and through the iron gate, Lu Qi and Laura saw a figure sitting in the darkness of one of the cells, motionless.
There was only one prisoner in the entire cell, and he must be the leader of the Prophet's remnants...
Before the two of them could speak, the figure in the darkness spoke first:
"Constantine is out of options, so he plans to send you to continue to torture me?"
Hearing this, Lu Qi blinked and said casually: "Sorry, you guessed wrong, we are here to rescue you!"
"Save me out? I don't know you..."
"Sofia and Joseph asked us to come."
After hearing the two names spoken by Laura and the figure sitting in the darkness, he stood up and walked under the dim light.
It was a middle-aged man with medium-long hair and a beard.
The most unforgettable thing is his eyes, which seem to have seen through everything in the world.
However, the torture marks on his face made him look a little embarrassed.
After looking at the two people up and down, the man asked:
"Who are you?"
"This is what happened..."
Under Laura's simple narration, the man understood the identity and purpose of the two people in front of him.
With a "click", the cell door was opened, and the man who walked out stretched out his hand to Laura:
"Thank you very much for your help. My name is Jacob. What should I call you, my new friends?"
Seeing this, Lu Qi raised his brows slightly, then took half a step forward, before Laura could do it, reached out to hold his hand, and said with a smile:
"I am Lu Qi, her name is Laura..."
Nodding to Jacob, Laura asked impatiently:
"When the Holy Trinity caught you, they wanted to get information about the Lost City from you, right?"
"Yes, they want something in the Lost City, and they believe that everything they do is God's will."
Hearing this, a flash of scorn flashed across Laura's face, "As far as I know, what they did is not sacred at all..."
Before the two of them could continue talking, Lu Qi interrupted:
"We have to leave before the guards outside notice anything strange..."
Lu Qi and Laura took Jacob with them. Just as they were about to return from the original route, they heard Jacob pointing to the corridor on the other side of the cell and saying:
"We can get out this way!"
"You know how to get out?"
"Yes, I have studied this area."
Considering the possible risks of returning the same way, Lu Qi and Laura chose to believe in the leader of the Prophet's remnants.
Following Jacob, he walked from the corridor on the side of the cell to a staircase leading to the first floor.
While walking down the stairs, Laura did not forget to ask Jacob:
"How long have you been in that cell?"
"It's been long enough to know that if Constantine doesn't achieve his goal, he will never give up..."
"The Holy Source? Is it here?"
Hearing Laura's direct question, Jacob couldn't help but smile softly, "Although I am very grateful to you for coming to save me, we have just met, and trust needs to be established with each other."
"As for the topic of the Lost City, let's wait until we actually escape from here and return to the village..."
While they were talking, the three of them came to a dilapidated room at the bottom of the stairs.
Looking at the map of the former Soviet Union hanging on the wall, various filing cabinets, a projector placed in the center of the room, and the ancient pictures projected on the wall, Lu Qi and Laura couldn't help but be a little stunned.
The picture projected was a black-and-white photo. The photo showed a large number of men in ragged clothes being led by several soldiers to a camp with a red star printed on it.
