Above the Seven Towers

Chapter 753: Deep inside the prison

Views:

In the deepest part of the Mage Prison, Xiao Chen and Tang Feng were still sitting in their cells.

Xiao Chen, who was in a meditative state, suddenly opened his eyes and said to Tang Feng, "Something happened. Jiang Yitian is coming to kill both of us."

"Are you sure?" Tang Feng stood up slowly. "Did your clone find out something?"

"Jiang Yitian and the assassins will be here soon. My clone has followed as well. But he is one step slower than them. We need to delay for a while." Xiao Chen said.

Tang Feng looked around and said, "There is only one chair in the room that can be used as a weapon."

Xiao Chen said: "You don't seem too surprised."

Tang Feng said, "Hey, I've been locked up here for the past few days and I've already thought of the most absurd possibilities. Sending someone to kill us is just a common idea."

Xiao Chen placed his hand on the Traveler's Heart, concentrating his attention. After a stalemate of about ten seconds, he actually took out a Type 54 pistol from it. He looked through the cage and threw it to Tang Feng, "You can use this."

"Can you use the storage ring?" He instinctively tried the ring on his hand, but it was like a pool of stagnant water, with no reaction at all.

"After I broke through the Great Magician realm, I can now release some mental power even in this environment. Although it's not enough to release any powerful high-level magic, it's still possible to use the ring."

Xiao Chen hovered his hand over the ring again, and a few seconds later, a flaming dagger appeared in his hand. He placed the sword on the table beside him and covered it with a piece of clothing.

"Do you want to fight them in close combat?" Tang Feng asked.

"I only have one gun." Xiao Chen shrugged.

At the prison administration office near the prison gate, Ji Yijun, in his capacity as a guard adviser, met his former subordinate, current prison guard captain Guo Chengde.

Ji Yijun rushed into his office and asked, "Old Guo, do you believe me?"

Guo Chengde was a thin young man. He twitched his lips and said, "Old Ji, how can I respond to your nonsense? Tell me what's going on."

"Let me make it short. Someone wants to kill Xiao Chen and Tang Feng in your prison. The killer has already gone in with Jiang Yitian. If we don't catch up, something big will happen." Ji Yijun spoke all at once as if he was firing a submachine gun.

"Who is Jiang Yitian and?" Guo Chengde asked.

"What?" Ji Yijun didn't hear clearly.

"Who is the killer?" Guo Chengde asked again.

"Imperial man." Xiao Chen said behind Ji Yijun. He took off his hat and revealed his face.

"You... you came in from outside!" Guo Chengde said in surprise.

"I am a clone. My original body is still in there and I'm about to be killed." Xiao Chen feels very uncomfortable now, because his body is made up of magic power and is suppressed by the Mage Prison as a whole. If it weren't for the Dream Tower's "Fantasy True Form" being very special and his body infinitely close to real life, an ordinary magic summon would have been dispelled directly.

But even so, he felt too weak to even fight. He was just thankful to be able to walk into the prison.

Guo Chengde looked at the two of them for a few seconds, then walked directly to the door and shouted, "Guard Squad 2, assemble!"

Ji Yijun was stunned and said, "Old Guo, what are you doing? Even if the deal fails, we still have friendship. Are you going to have someone arrest me? Are you going to burn down the bridge after crossing it?"

"What a mess. Have you graduated from elementary school Chinese?" Guo Chengde took out the key and opened the armory next door. Pointing to a row of five or six people inside, he said, "Take it yourself! Hurry up, let's gather the team and chase in!"

Ji Yijun rushed inside and reached out to grab a rifle: "Old Guo, I was right about you!"

Guo Chengde prepared his rifle and said, "I don't know you. Although you are unreliable, you won't joke about this kind of thing." He leaned closer and glanced at Ji Yijun, "I think so, right?"

"Old Guo, you bastard!" Ji Yijun punched him.

"Thank you!" Xiao Chen said.

Guo Chengde said, "Although we don't know each other very well, I have heard a lot about you. No matter what they say you did, I don't think you should be thrown into prison like you are now, with no one asking questions. Not to mention that someone wants to join forces with outsiders to kill you! These traitors should be shot!

Being in my position, it is very rare to have the opportunity to speak out such true feelings, but today I finally have the opportunity to speak out. "

He handed a gun to Xiao Chen, "Do you know how to use it?"

"certainly."

At this time, a dozen guards rushed in from outside. Guo Chengde said: "There is an emergency in the prison now. Some imperial people have sneaked into our prison and are preparing to assassinate important people inside. These people may even be in collusion with us. Now the whole class, take up your weapons and follow me to chase the enemy!"

These warriors were well-trained and most of them were equipped with weapons, so they were quickly ready for battle.

Guo Chengde led them and chased into the prison through a fast passage.

Xiao Chen's clone's body was a little weak, so Ji Yijun pulled him to run.

Xiao Chen panted and said, "As far as we know, five of the enemies are martial arts masters, and the other traitor from the intelligence department may have a pistol. Although we cannot use fighting spirit here, the physical strength of these people should not be underestimated. If our soldiers see them holding cold weapons later, they must not underestimate the enemy."

Guo Chengde said: "I understand. Try not to let them get close. But many of these guards are former mercenaries. Although most of them have not cultivated fighting spirit, their close combat capabilities are not weak."

"Don't panic, I'm here." Ji Yijun grinned, "It's been a while since I fought with just my body strength, my fists are thirsty!"

At the same time, Jiang Yitian, accompanied by another guard, was entering the last checkpoint.

The inner checkpoint was guarded by three armed soldiers. One of them was another guard captain in the prison. He noticed the appearance of Cole and others, so he asked: "Deputy Minister Jiang, who are these people coming with you? Why are they carrying weapons?"

Jiang Yitian said: "This is a confidential operation of the Intelligence Department, so don't ask any more questions. Open the door and let us in. The rest is none of your business."

The captain of the guard said, "It's just that the person imprisoned inside is too important. You also know that we have given your intelligence department a lot of convenience before. Please don't make it difficult for me."

Jiang Yitian said: "It's no use for you to know..."

At this moment, Cole behind him coughed.

He led two of his warriors, and they flashed, each drew their sword, aimed at a guard and stabbed him.

Those soldiers had never expected that the people Jiang Yitian brought would suddenly kill them. They uttered a few short groans before being stabbed in the vitals and fell in a pool of blood. (To be continued)
