Chapter 760
Judge Hanya began calling for backup,
but as the camera cut,
the Wu Bian who had received the order had long since lost all signs of life.
Paimon: "Wuwah!"
Paimon: "Th-this is so sudden?!"
Paimon: "Those... those Wu Bian guarding this place had actually been... brutally...!"
Hearing Yanqing: "Damn it!"
Hearing Yanqing: "Those beasts still went and did it!"
Miss Yunli: "If I'd known, I shouldn't have held back—I should've smashed those broken machines along with all those Abundance race people!"
Miss Yunli: "Dammit, the me in the video still went too easy on them!"
March 7th: "So many... so many mechs!!"
March 7th: "Brother Dan Heng, Stelle, you two can hold on, right?!"
Stelle: "We've fought an Emanator, why would we fear this scrap metal?"
Stelle: "It's just that being played by that group of Abundance race people really pisses me off!"
Furina: "It really was so sudden, it happened in the blink of an eye!"
Furina: "If Mr. Dan Heng hadn't reacted so quickly, Young Lady Stelle would've even been in danger just now."
Yanfei: "It's already this critical here for Young Lady Stelle, so over at Mr. Jiaoqiu—"
Seeing Jiaoqiu: "Tch, I never imagined this trip would carry the risk of losing my life."
Seeing Jiaoqiu: "Good thing it was just the me in the video who became the unlucky one, that's not too bad."
Hearing Moze: "No matter, with my abilities, even facing Hulei, I should be able to escape."
Seeing Jiaoqiu: "Even if you bring me along?"
Hearing Moze: "Worth a try."
Hearing Moze: "But I never said I'd bring you...."
Seeing Jiaoqiu: "Shit! You little brat, what a wolf-hearted dog-lunged wretch! (Angry. jpg)"
Silver Wolf: "Ha, you two really are a great pair of brothers!"
The video continued.
Wolf-shaped mechs surrounded them from every direction,
forcing Brother Dan Heng and the others to hastily draw their weapons to respond.
【What's going on?】
【Why have these things started moving?】
【Something's wrong, the guards aren't responding at all...】
【You two, be careful facing the enemy!】
No word came from the guards,
making Judge Hanya's heart jolt,
but the current situation left her no room to think too much.
Then, the three gathered their focus,
and fought these mechs together.
A moment later, after expending some effort, the three
successfully defeated the mechs surrounding them.
【How is this possible? The Ferrymen already cut off the machines' power inside the crates according to protocol, and even applied seals outside the crates.】
【Why can these mechs still move?】
Judge Hanya looked at the fallen mechs,
frowning, utterly unable to figure it out.
【Just like the situation back at the Artisanship Commission, these goods seemed to have lost control and attacked everyone present.】
【The Alchemy Commission's people inspected the mechs—their interiors contain an extraordinary structure.】
【Something this dangerous appearing in the Shackling Prison, the only purpose is—】
Brother Dan Heng analyzed for a moment,
and shortly after his expression shifted slightly as he thought of an unpleasant possibility.
【A prison break.】
Judge Hanya already knew what Brother Dan Heng was about to say.
【And the person who sent these goods clearly hoped that Luofu Xianzhou's strict review process would expose its danger before the Skyward Commission and the Cloud Knights.】
【What they wanted to ensure was that it would definitely be sent into the Shackling Prison.】
At this point, Brother Dan Heng also furrowed his brow deeply.
Stelle: "Brother Dan Heng has already grasped the truth."
Stelle: "But I feel it's already too late."
Brother Dan Heng: "Right now, the Shackling Prison has already fallen into an unknown situation."
Brother Dan Heng: "More critically, we may not be able to transmit information out at this moment."
Brother Dan Heng: "And once we let Hulei escape..."
Brother Dan Heng: "All the residents above Luo Fu will be facing danger!"
March 7th: "Don't be so pessimistic—at least Hulei is still locked up right now!"
March 7th: "We didn't see him escape either!"
Furina: "So nervous... I really want to know how things are going on Judge Xueyi's side now."
Judge Xueyi: "The Shackling Prison's defenses are extremely tight, especially the place where important figures are imprisoned — it has layer upon layer of seals."
Judge Xueyi: "Only a Judge can open it."
Judge Xueyi: "Even if the Bu Li people wanted to break someone out of prison, it wouldn't be this easy!"
Seeing Jiaoqiu: "Judge Xueyi, my lord, what if there's a possibility like this?"
Seeing Jiaoqiu: "The three of us... have unknowingly been treated as the unlucky saps leading the way..."
Judge Xueyi: "...."
The video continues.
【If, at a moment when no one could notice, these things have already begun to move.】
【Then the current state of the entire prison is extremely dangerous.】
【What's even more dangerous is that, apart from those two — 2.5 — a delegation of visitors has also just entered the depths of the Shackling Prison: envoys from the Yaoqing Luofu Xianzhou.】
【The person they came to visit... may very well be the target for which these wolf-shaped mecha were sent here.】
【If that evil beast suppressed at the bottom were to escape... I'm afraid the Luofu Xianzhou would face a great catastrophe too!】
At this very moment, Judge Hanya had almost figured it out —
the goal of that group of Bu Li people.
And at this moment, the scene shifted,
cutting straight to Judge Xueyi a moment earlier.
【Judge, my lord, is this the place?】
【There aren't any cages here at all?】
After following Judge Xueyi to the bottom of the Shackling Prison,
Seeing Jiaoqiu looked around, somewhat puzzled.
【Those who have committed all ten evils and crimes of great treason are all suppressed at the bottom of the Dark Prison, imprisoned in separate grotto-heavens.】
【Without a decree, it won't be opened lightly.】
【Azure birds lead the way, nether lamps light the path.】
【Help me light these lamp stands, and the path leading to the bottom of the Dark Prison will reveal itself.】
【I've already given you the diagram needed to light the lamps. Take a look.】
Hu Tao: "The place where Hu Lei is imprisoned really is layered with mechanisms — it's even using a separate grotto-heaven to hold him."
Hu Tao: "Looking at it this way, it does put one's mind considerably at ease."
March 7th: "Mm, at least from what the screen shows, Judge Xueyi and the others don't seem to have run into any danger right now?"
