Byron's Blade

Chapter 74

A large group of prison guards rushed into the isolation room where Mu Li's glass prison was located. These people were relieved to see that Mu Li was still in the prison.Immediately afterwards, they searched around to see if there were criminals hiding nearby.Of course not. After they searched, a prison guard with the highest rank came to the glass prison's access opening and shouted inside:

"Hey! Is someone coming in? Did you meet someone?"

Mu Li knew that this person was actually the deputy warden.But even if he is the deputy warden, he can't open this glass prison, and he can't do anything to him, so Mu Li just shook his head lightly, not even bothering to say anything.

However, the deputy warden obviously didn't believe it. In the monitoring room next to the isolation room, four prison guards were stunned and hadn't woken up until now. The plates for eating were neatly placed on the ground outside the cell. If no one came in, he wouldn't believe it even if he was beaten to death.

The deputy warden stomped his feet outside, urging Mu Li to question him furiously, but Mu Li remained motionless, sitting cross-legged on the ground firmly, closing his eyes and resting his mind, ignoring anything.

"What do you think I really dare not do with you?" The deputy warden was completely irritated by Mu Li, walked to the console not far from the glass prison, operated it, and then pressed down with a grim face. button.

Immediately, a strong electric current flowed into the ground. Mu Li was wearing iron shoes on his feet. Although he was sitting cross-legged, his feet still touched the ground. This time he got an electric shock instantly, his whole body twitched, and he fell to the ground.

"Say it or not!" The deputy warden's voice came from the microphone and echoed throughout the isolation cell.

Although Mu Li was shocked to the point where his whole body was numb and his hands and feet were so weak that he couldn't stand up, he still didn't make a sound.Instead, he lay on the ground and laughed, curled up and coughed while laughing, as if he had encountered the funniest thing in the world.

The deputy warden was furious and pressed the button again.The electric current hit Mu Li again, this time for a longer period of time. She was like a fish that landed on the shore, twitching and struggling on the ground in pain, until she was so shocked that she lost consciousness that the deputy warden released the button.

"Boss, this is not good, will it kill someone? This person is still useful." A high-ranking prison guard approached the deputy warden and whispered.

"She can't die, I have a sense of proportion. The warden has been with people from the church these days, and he won't be back until the day after tomorrow. These days, you take care of her, and the prisoner is absolutely not allowed to be left alone in this room, except The camera, I still need someone to guard it. This person is fine, and he is safe and sound. Even if we don’t get any benefits, we have sent away the God of Plague. If something happens to this person, hehe, all of us can’t afford it. Let's go."

"Yes, I understand."

Mu Li was in a coma for more than five hours before waking up again. There was no clock in the cell, so she didn't know the time, and she deduced it entirely by relying on the shift frequency of the prison guards in the cell and counting the seconds silently.

It has been more than seven hours, almost eight hours, since Lan Ni left.Lan Ni gave Mu Li ten days, which is 240 hours, and there are 232 hours left.

However, Mu Li still hasn't considered whether he should escape from prison.Even if she wanted to escape, she didn't know how to do it.The glass prison is unbreakable and cannot be opened at all, and there are so many prison guards looking around, how can she escape from here?

Unless she cooperates with others and someone helps her, it is almost impossible for her to escape from prison by her own strength.But at present, the only thing she can rely on is Lanny outside, but what troubles her is that Lanny didn't tell her how to get in touch.

Hehe, it seems that I don't want to die after all. She sat on the ground with her back arched, her head hanging down as if she was asleep, but her thoughts were churning.Everything, everyone, flashed through my mind like a revolving lantern, going back and forth many times, but my heart became more and more confused.Her adoptive father once told her: To live is to be confused, and to die is to be understood.Now that she died like this, she certainly couldn't be said to have died clearly.However, she doesn't want to live in a daze, she wants to find out the truth, and she wants to figure out what she should do when she came to this world.

She really didn't want Rui Qiao and Mary to die in vain.

Rui Qiao hasn't finished reading her diary yet, but now she can't read it anymore. The diary has been stuffed in her belly and she has to find a way to go out before continuing to read it.

How should I go out?She slowly stroked the pendant she had been holding in her palm, her mind spinning rapidly.Lack of intelligence is the biggest problem. The way to get out of this glass prison, the way to avoid people's eyes, the terrain of Sandburg, the iron shoes and iron bracelets that bound her are all huge obstacles.

If you can't escape the prison quietly, you can only make things bigger and create chaos to escape.Otherwise, it would be difficult for Lan Ni outside to know what was going on in the prison, and she would not know that she had decided to go out, let alone come to meet her in advance.

Thinking of Lan Ni, Mu Li felt pain in his heart as if being slowly cut by a blunt knife.This relationship has really penetrated deep into her heart. When Lan Ni came, the heavy words I deliberately said to her were actually like a sword without a handle, and I was stabbed with blood dripping with the sword.Seeing her crying, Mu Li's heart was broken, but he could only grit his teeth and drive her away.

In fact, Lan Ni has nothing to apologize to herself, even though she deceived herself and concealed many things from herself, even until now, she still has some things she hasn't told herself, but Mu Li never blamed her.Lan Ni may be the only person in this world who is really thinking about her, and Mu Li can't hate such a person at all.But Mu Li knew that the gap between them was getting bigger and bigger, and up to now, she no longer had any confidence to cross it.In any case, Lanny is Friesman's daughter, and she has made up her mind to break with General Friesman.She didn't want to embarrass Lani, she was a pampered young lady. When she was an officer, she couldn't give her the high-quality life she was accustomed to since she was a child. Now she is precarious, and the future is so dark that she can't see anything clearly. Can't drag her down.

This escape from prison may be the last time she relies on Lan Ni's strength, and it is also the last time Lan Ni helps herself.Mu Li has already decided that if she escapes from prison successfully, she will speak clearly with Lan Ni once she is outside, and break off the relationship between the two.Her future is doomed to be turbulent and full of thorns, and she must not let Lanny suffer with her.

If... one day, she can survive all this and live a better life. At that time, if Lanny is still interested in her, she will never imprison her feelings again.It's just that Mu Li really doesn't know whether there will be such a day.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and Mu Li remained motionless as if he was dead.But in fact, she was secretly observing the movements of the prison guards around her.A total of three prison guards surrounded the circular glass prison, each moved a chair, and sat down to watch her.The perspectives of the three people add up to almost 360 degrees with no dead ends, and all of Mu Li's movements are under their observation.

However, people are the link most prone to loopholes.Machines may be infallible, but humans cannot.The prison guards changed shifts every five hours. At first, they were in good spirits, and kept looking at Mu Li with wide-eyed eyes.But after a long time, when Mu Li didn't move at all, they got bored and started to lose their minds.However, since the overhead monitor was still working, they didn't dare to desert and drive too far, pretending to sit on the chair, but actually dozing off.

On the second day, Mu Li obviously felt that they had relaxed.Now Muli can only eat one meal a day, which is the energy needed to maintain her minimum life activities.According to Mu Li's guess, the delivery time should be ten o'clock in the morning.It is not the normal three meals, in order to confuse Muli's biological clock time.This is a common method used by prisons for some serious criminals.

At ten o'clock, Mu Li took advantage of the movement of having to get up while eating to carefully observe the changes of the monitoring prison guards. They began to play with the bracelet ID blatantly, and even a prison guard who looked like an old fritters left He got out of his seat, ran to another prison guard, and chatted with him for a while.

This shows that the monitor above their heads is no longer a threat to them, that is to say, the leader they are afraid of is not in the monitoring room outside.These prison guards are all high-level prison guards, and the leader who is older than them can only be the deputy warden.

At the fourth shift change, that is, 20 hours later, Mu Li, relying on his excellent hearing, got a key message from the two prison guards who were chatting quietly: the warden will be back before noon tomorrow. I will bring important people from the church over, and maybe do a final test on myself and determine the result of the treatment.

At this time, it was 4 o'clock in the afternoon.Twenty-eight hours had passed since Lanny came to see her in the cell.Mu Li still has at least 28 hours to escape. Once she is sent for the last test, her life may not be guaranteed.

The haze of death began to strangle her neck, slowly tightening it.But Mu Li was not anxious, thinking about all the possibilities that would allow her to survive all the time.

The pendant in her hand caught her attention again.

Dora said: "Sister Ali, this necklace is for you. Also, this paper crane is a talisman. You should put it inside and carry it with you to keep you safe."

Mary said: "This is a talisman for you. There are too many uncertainties in the future. Even if you do your best, it is difficult to fully grasp it. So I give you a talisman. Don't use it unless it is absolutely necessary."

as the last resort?amulet?Keep safe... Now she is undoubtedly at a dead end, how can such a thing be kept safe?Mary and Dora would never do nonsense, why would they give themselves this thing?Lan Ni said that she didn't know what the function of this pendant was, but she took the risk secretly and gave it to herself?Was it her own idea, or was someone asking her to do it?

After 12:[-], it was close to the sixth shift of the prison guards.The three prison guards were drowsy, and all sat in their positions and dozed off.Mu Li slowly adjusted his posture and angle, blocked the view of the monitor with his back, and quietly opened the pendant.The origami crane that was folded out of sugar paper fell out.Mu Li held the thousand paper cranes, observed carefully, and vaguely noticed something was wrong, it seemed that there were some lines that she had never seen before.

She slowly took apart the thousand paper cranes and restored them to the appearance of candy paper.I saw that on the inner side of the sugar paper, there were countless lines drawn on it, forming an extremely precise picture.It's astonishing like a miniature sculpture, at first glance it looks like an integrated circuit, but Mu Li's hands slowly trembled.

Here's a map of... Sandburg!Moreover, there are actually three pieces of candy paper, all of which are stacked together. Each piece is as thin as a cicada's wing, but it is made of special materials, which are extremely tough, waterproof and fireproof.The map of each layer of Sandburg is drawn on it.

So, what about pendants?What is the function of this pendant?Is it just a container for this candy wrapper?

Wait...Quake...Quake...Could it be...

Mu Li observed the pendant carefully and fiddled with it for a while, finally found that the shell of the pendant could be opened. After removing the chassis, there appeared four strangely assembled small parts inside, each of which was very small. The shape is really exactly the same as Thor's Hammer Mjolnir, sealed in a small transparent box.Overall, it is only as big as a fingernail and three millimeters thick, but the structure inside is very delicate.

The coil is set on the e-shaped iron core, and the two ends are connected with a small piece of very tiny energy engraving crystal with hair-thin wires. The energy engraving crystal is probably used to replace the battery for power supply. Mu Li also saw the electric energy conversion The interface used.There is also a small switch that toggles up and down.There is also double-sided tape on the back of the small box.

This is the...degausser...
