One goes out only after the other comes back. You—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are your ears deaf already?” The Pink Mask turned its head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone instinctively took a step back, faces darkening as they said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re not allowed to fight inside the cell!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Really?” A scornful smirk appeared on the Pink Mask. “So who’s going to punish me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group instantly went speechless. They were about to mention the guards, but this guy just fought one face-to-face and is still standing here fine as ever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce didn’t bother arguing with them over useless things. He simply stepped out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mission was to escape prison with everyone. If they all died, wouldn’t it be easier for him to get out alone?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he didn’t plan to do it himself—that was the kind of dumb thing Wrath would do. Testing the game mechanics was Greed’s style, not the style of “Jealousy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, he was a bit worried this might affect his perfect clearance rating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had his own methods. These scum had fitting ways to die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tried stepping out and found that once he left the cell, the restrictions lifted, and he could use items from his inventory again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cell door shut automatically behind him, and Lu Ce instantly transformed into the image of a prison guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dmbss. Brain like a rock, muscles just as average. Didn’t even realize I could shapeshift?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He casually threw in a curse at the guard on his way out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the guards probably hadn’t realized the mess this guy in the Pink Mask was about to unleash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he stepped out of the cell, Lu Ce turned his head and saw a prisoner walking out from the next cell over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately shouted in a commanding tone:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Back inside!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The prisoner froze, just having stretched lazily, then immediately slumped and turned his head with a bewildered look at the “guard.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“O-okay, okay!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The authority of the guards was still quite effective—the prisoner instantly retreated into the cell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just a moment ago, this god of plague had dragged someone who looked half-dead past here. Now he was back already?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did he learn teleportation or something?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait—something’s off!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Halfway back, the prisoner started to feel something wasn’t right. Didn’t they just say it was recreation time?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uh, sir...” The prisoner turned and asked hesitantly, “Didn’t you just say it’s rec time...?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Didn’t you hear me?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A furious roar came, and the prisoner instantly shut up, nodding and backing off quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this prison, it was best not to think about disobeying the guards. That was a hard rule for everyone here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wait, stop right there.” Lu Ce called from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Prisoner: ?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s with this guy today?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned around, forcing a smile uglier than crying and said flatteringly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sir... what’s wrong? I haven’t done anything lately, and my sentence isn’t even that serious.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cut the crap. Just answer my question.” The tall figure of the fake guard stepped forward and looked down at him. “Tell me—where’s the Know-it-All?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh?” The prisoner was stunned. Why ask me something like that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now was not the time to question anything. He could only point to a room in the distance and say,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In that room over there. Why?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who usually goes to see him?” Lu Ce asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At those words, the prisoner instantly panicked, imagining a whole drama in his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Know-it-All was a gray-area figure in the prison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If prisoners wanted secret info, contraband, or even plans to escape, they went to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for some reason, the guards and even the warden turned a blind eye to it. Now, suddenly, he was being asked about it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sir, I’ve never gone to him, I swear!” the prisoner quickly said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce: ?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who asked you that?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under Lu Ce’s menacing stare and intimidation, the prisoner nervously spilled the general situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Basically, the Know-it-All was someone who could “make things happen” inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After understanding the situation, Lu Ce’s mind churned with schemes. He nodded, then grabbed the prisoner and tossed him back into his room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After what happened today, that guy probably wouldn’t dare step out for days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce turned and headed to the Know-it-All’s room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he was going to escape, if he was going to make moves, then of course he had to go see the key figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d already tested out the guards. The warden could wait. Now it was time for the Know-it-All.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reached the door and pushed it open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wooden door led to a hallway, and at the end was a reinforced metal door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ce walked up to it. As he walked, his body rapidly shrank and twisted, his face morphing into another person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the image of a woman—the only female form in this world he could reliably replicate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Xie Antong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mask and face melded and reshaped into the form of a helmet-wearing woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the body transformation was a bit sloppy since Lu Ce wasn’t very familiar with her physique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced down, and that delicate face curled into an obviously disgusted expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Height’s about right. Put on the clothes and it's done. Can’t really change the... specifics anyway.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Close enough. This chick’s a pain. Why did she have to be born a woman? Should’ve switched genders from the start.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Muttering nonstop, “Xie Antong” reached the metal door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knocked gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a few seconds, the door slid open from both sides, revealing a classical-looking study inside, with a middle-aged man seated at the desk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re the Know-it-All?” Lu Ce, disguised as Xie Antong, stepped in and asked directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man looked up and saw a new face—and a woman at that—his eyes lit up instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You new here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s it to you? Mind your own business. When I ask, just answer. Don’t act all curious. I’ve been here ten years, so what?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she spoke, “Xie Antong” strode forward and sat down boldly in front of the desk, even throwing one leg over the other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Got anything to drink? I’m dying of thirst.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1101,"2026-06-02T09:03:27.233Z",1,"novelbin.me","cf5ef558f607cc3867970f6b25a84c7ce38c2236ef28e4a21b6f1f10fdb5ee75","pain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-chapter-229","pain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-chapter-227",867,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fpain-immunity-worried-the-villains-aren-t-twiste-cover.jpg"]
