"Is there a prisoner named Athena held in this prison?"
"No~ I don't know. I'm just a guard. Only the warden knows the prisoners in the prison."
After knocking out the unlucky captured guard with a knife, Kaludia shook his head. He had already asked several people and they all got the same answer. It seemed that he had to either go in and search the cells one by one, or he had to go there. Find the warden and ask him where the person you are looking for is being held.
A large number of keys were found from the guards, but El Cid found it too troublesome and simply used the holy sword to open the prison door.
Because the prison was being attacked by Alexis, the prisoners in many places were very excited. Many guards who retreated into the building were busy suppressing the prisoners who tried to take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble. However, Elcid and others The prison they entered seemed strangely calm. After destroying two fences, the group finally entered the holding area.
In the dark cell, all the prisoners were sitting motionless in their rooms, looking like their last bits of life had been wiped away by time. Even if someone noticed the Saints, they would only raise their heads slightly. He looked at him with an almost blank look, then lowered his head and remained silent without saying a word.
What a strange place
This lifeless atmosphere made Kaludia, who had a carefree personality, extremely uncomfortable: "What's wrong with these guys? They look like walking zombies."
The imagined scene of a prisoner asking for help from his group did not appear. Even if the Perseus Silver Saint walked outside a prison and asked the prisoners inside through the thick iron door, the other party still remained silent. He glanced at Argolu, then turned his head and stared blankly at the wall.
"Hey~ did you hear me? Don't you want to be free?"
No matter how much Arugolo shouted, the imprisoned middle-aged man did not react at all. Arugolo, who was a little anxious, simply moved the fence and got in. However, even to this extent, the prisoner still looked like that He looked sluggish and had no idea of escape.
El Cid looked around: "It's very strange here. There is not even a shadow of a guard inside."
Although there seemed to be a large number of prisoners here, including men, women, old and young, there were not even a single guard or jailer responsible for caring for the prisoners inside. The entire prison was like a living tomb. If there were no noisy shouts outside, it could be said to be a completely silent world.
"There's no time, let's search separately!"
"Yes! Lord El Cid."
Although he knew that it would be dangerous to move separately in this strange place, time waited for no one, and El Cid could not care so much for the time being. After the order was given, the five Saints immediately separated and began to search. Everyone already knew the general image of Athena from the portraits brought by the spies. Moreover, there were not many female prisoners in this prison. It was necessary to distinguish them and Not difficult.
And in the warden's room on the lower floor of the West District Prison, which is neatly placed with bookcases and office equipment, several prison directors are observing the situation through magic projections, which are rising from the bottom of the lake seemingly endlessly. Magic missiles, the completely suppressed guards could not even stand on the city wall to defend, let alone fight back.
"Although they are low-level magic missiles, with this quantity and power...when did the other party mobilize so many mages to the bottom of the lake?"
The man sitting at the desk frowned and looked at the situation in the projection, his eyes full of anxiety and confusion about the situation.
Next to the man stood a man and a woman. The man is a believer of the Lord of Chaos wearing a black robe and a 'Mask of Sorrow', while the woman is a female knight. Her skin is tight and slightly dark due to long-term exercise, but it does not affect her beauty but gives people a A feeling of heroism.
The male cultist shook his head: "If there are so many mages, why are they using such low-level spells to attack us? I really can't figure out what the other party's intentions are. If possible~Kuraus┉┉We'd better hurry up from here Evacuate, if possible, we will encounter some beings we shouldn't encounter this time."
As a cultist who understands that there are transcendent existences like demons in this world, he naturally also knows that there are more powerful people in this world who are not controlled by secular forces.
Would there be hundreds of high-level mages hiding in a lake in this world using the lowest-level magic missiles to attack a prison
Obviously ~ the answer is no!
God! Paladin! Chief priest! Even the giant dragons at the top of the power of the main material plane hidden behind the Holy City.
The most likely situation now is that those blue dragons who are already good at magic are attacking the prison. Is the other party planning to do something, rob the prison to save people, or to destroy the prison that was finally infiltrated by the religious group, no matter what the reason is. Anyway, the enemies attacking your side in the lake are definitely not easy enemies. There is no demon altar here, and the power of the surrounding abyss can only open a very small intersection for some low-level and lower-level demons. After briefly coming to the main material plane, without the assistance of a high-level demon, let alone a giant dragon. Even the chief priests of the Holy City are invincible enemies.
"No! How can I evacuate? The prisoners here are all serious criminals. Once we leave, these prisoners will definitely take the opportunity to cause trouble and escape."
The expression of the cultist man under the mask could not be seen clearly. Faced with the righteous reprimand of Warden Kuraus, he said very calmly: "Kuraus, you should recognize the situation clearly. This situation is not between you and this person." The prison’s guard strength can handle it.”
Kuraus nodded and then stood up: "Of course I know my old friend┉┉"
"There is a situation~"
Suddenly, the female knight standing aside suddenly said in a hoarse voice: "Some outsiders have broken into the prison. According to the feedback from the magic circle, there are five people in total. They are spreading out and seem to be looking for a certain prisoner."
Kuraus quickly adjusted the projection magic, and soon the situation inside the prison was revealed. The figures of two gold saints and three silver saints were revealed in the projection.
"Who is this person? Why is he wearing such weird armor? I don't remember the Holy Capital wearing this kind of golden armor. Could it be the Holy Knight of the Holy See!?"
"How could the holy knights of the Holy See come to the Holy Capital's territory!"
"No matter what, one thing is certain now: the commotion tonight is all because of them."
As he spoke, Kuraus stood up, grabbed the long sword placed beside the table and said to the cultist man: "Let's go. If you are afraid, leave first."
If the identity of a cultist is synonymous with evil, despicable, and cruelty in the hearts of the world, then the warden who is discussing with the cultist in front of him shows a different character. It is a feeling of doing his duty as if he is dead, which makes him One simply cannot believe that such a man would sit down and confer with a devil-worshipping cultist.
"Then I'm sorry, Kuraus. I hope to see you again, Lord Guardian, in the future┉┉" The cultist man didn't say much and quickly turned around and left the room.
When only Kuraus and the female knight were left in the room, the warden who insisted on staying behind immediately summoned all the guards outside the door. Regardless of whether the prison could be defended, but for the invasion of these five people who tried to rob the prison, The perpetrator must be punished. With this thought, Kuraus led the female knight and dozens of heavily armed guards to quickly go to the upper prison.
The Saints who searched most of the prison were having a headache. After spending so much time, they still couldn't find a woman similar to Captain Athena, and all the prisoners here seemed to have lost their souls. Generally, no matter how you ask them, they remain silent and cannot get any clues at all.
Alexis's magic missile fireworks show outside the prison also paused for a moment. Although the dragon's magic power is very abundant, it is not inexhaustible.
"Male┉┉Male┉┉Male┉┉Female~ No ┉┉Male┉┉Female~ That's not right either, where is it really?" Kalutia, a Scorpio in the detention area on the third floor, was running quickly past a series of buildings. There is a prison door. Whenever I find that the prisoner inside is a woman, I will stop to check if it is Athena, but I have almost finished checking the third floor and still haven't found the person I am looking for.
Hmm~
Suddenly, Kaludia found two figures leaping high directly below. Almost every jump, they could step on the corridor railings to use this force to continue jumping to the next level. In less than ten seconds, the two figures had already reached the next level. He jumped from the first floor to the third floor and stopped just in front of Kalutia.
A moment or two! Kaludia raised his eyebrows. This level and physical fitness were obviously not ordinary guards. According to the power system of this world, he was at least as good as a great knight commander.
"Ha~ I wonder who you two are?" Kaludia asked with a cynical expression.
Kuraus looked at the intruder wearing golden armor in front of him with a serious expression and shouted sternly: "This is a question I should ask. The intruder surrenders immediately, otherwise he will be killed without mercy!"
"Shoot to kill! Is it just you? Oh~ It seems there are still some manpower┉┉"
Suddenly, Kaludia noticed the guards who were climbing up the stairs. It seemed that more than ten people were just guys of average strength. If these ten people were all of the same level as the man and woman in front of him, It will take some time to deal with it.
When he thought of this, the Scorpio Gold Saint immediately clenched his fists loudly. (~^~)
