Chapter 279
And who knows how many prisoners who escaped have already died.
The Imperial Court will absolutely not tolerate these villains.
They immediately unleashed a slaughter mode.
Although Old Sha and the others possess formidable strength,
the disadvantages of Jianghu figures when facing the Imperial Court's regular army immediately became apparent.
Each of them could only manage to guard their own immediate surroundings.
Casualties were still continuously increasing.
"Going on like this is just a slow death!"
"Charge the gate!"
At the critical moment, Old Sha made a decisive choice.
If his group kept circling like this, they would likely be wiped out entirely.
But the words "charge the gate" seemed so ridiculous.
Relying on this group of prisoners who didn't even have a single sharp weapon, did they want to perform that legendary feat of being the first to scale the walls?
"Charge straight through!"
"We can't drag this out any longer!"
Wang Wang Lufei was also overwhelmed at this moment.
He knew very well that charging the gate meant ten deaths and no life.
But staying like this was also certain death.
He chose to take his life and death into his own hands.
"Isn't living good? Why must you seek your own path to death!"
At this moment, Mailun had also crossed the moat.
It was a pity; he really wanted to capture these people and take them back.
But looking at the current situation, there was no longer any need for this group of people to remain alive.
"Wang Lufei, we will go charge the gate; you take the opportunity to escape quickly!"
At the critical moment, Shen Ping made a decisive choice and headed straight for the city gate.
To be honest, his combat power on land would be greatly discounted.
At this moment, he had long since prepared himself for sacrifice.
Old Sha followed behind without a word. He indeed had to charge the gate, because no one else had that capability.
But he was different from Shen Ping; he had not prepared himself for sacrifice.
What did it have to do with him whether the Straw Hat kid died or not? It would be best if he died; he only wanted himself to live.
Wang Wang Lufei was extremely conflicted at this moment; he didn't know how many companions had already fallen on the road along the way.
Ivan was now severely injured, and was even Shen Ping going to sacrifice himself?
"Creak, creak..."
And just at this moment, a scene that no one expected occurred.
The massive city gate at the pass before them actually creaked open.
All the prisoners were stunned, and then they revealed expressions of wild joy.
Although they didn't know the reason, it seemed they were truly saved; every one of them had become a legend.
"How is this possible!"
"What on earth happened?"
"Stop talking nonsense, hurry and go through!"
Seeing them still dazed, Wang Wang Baji took the lead.
Was this group of people sick? The city gate was open, yet they weren't hurrying to leave.
At a time like this, even if there was an ambush inside, they had to charge.
And if it was an ambush, these people weren't afraid at all.
The main difficulty lay in the fact that there weren't actually many garrison troops on this city wall.
【Good, good, good, it's the effect of "Great Fortune from Heaven" again, right? I surrender!】
【Seriously, brother, there's no point! A pure luck-based player can't go far!】
【Is it not, brother, are there still haters at this point? Is it that hard to admit that I, Wang Wang Baji, am strong?】
【Can't admit it at all, brother. This damn pass guarded by the Imperial Court can be opened directly? I'll be honest, this is too abstract!】
【Exactly, it's an important pass of the Imperial Court, what do you take these rules for?】
The response in the barrage was not very good.
Everyone was indeed very interested in the effect of "Great Fortune from Heaven" at the beginning.
But the scene before them clearly violated common sense.
No matter how they thought about it, they couldn't reasonably explain it away with luck.
Because when Wang Baji triggered the "Great Fortune from Heaven" effect before, it would also be explained in some inexplicable way.
But now, it simply couldn't be washed clean.
The one most at a loss now was Mailun.
He stared blankly at the scene before him; one had to know that he was the only person qualified to order the opening of the pass.
"How is it possible? Even if there was a mole, no one else had the authority?"
He immediately abandoned his war chariot and ran back to the Great Interior Prison.
This time he was truly panicked, because that pass was the final obstacle.
Continuing the pursuit was completely meaningless now; as long as the pass was closed, these people would be turtles in a jar, and being killed would just be a matter of time.
Mailun was completely unable to figure it out at this moment, unable to imagine what the situation was at all.
And at the same time, inside the Great Interior Prison.
A scene that no one expected occurred: an identical Mailun was actually there issuing orders.
"Open the city gate; I have set an ambush outside!"
"Once they pass through the gate, I will wipe them all out!"
That Mailun commanded vigorously. His voice had already been transmitted through long-distance sound projection.
"As expected of the Warden, truly deep and far-sighted!"
"This time we must give them a taste of their own medicine!"
"These social dregs should have been slaughtered long ago!"
The surrounding jailers all expressed their indignation.
But at the same time, they had a question: why must the gate be opened? Wouldn't it also be catching turtles in a jar without opening it?
But these were clearly not things they could ask; some things didn't necessarily have to be said out loud.
If the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up; earning just that much money a month, why risk one's life?
In any case, the orders were all given by the Warden.
So, people aren't stupid. They might have noticed the Warden's abnormality, but this blame absolutely could not be theirs to bear.
At this very moment, some sharp-eyed viewers had already sensed something.
Then they stared at the screen in disbelief, completely unable to imagine that the plot would develop in this way.
"Although I don't know why, the door suddenly opened!"
"But we are finally saved!"
"Hahahaha!"
Wang Lufei had experienced too many hardships and dangers along this road.
Accidents always arrived as scheduled, and he had lost many things, but now he had finally made it through.
He did it; he finally did it, escaping from that legendary land.
All the prisoners were cheering and jumping for joy, only Shen Ping had a gloomy face.
After the brief joy, Wang Wang Lufei suddenly discovered that something was wrong.
Especially when he saw Shen Ping's face.
"Wrong! Why does it feel..."
