Ten minutes ago——

Aiden stepped into the negotiation room, where Arsenal had been waiting for a long time.

"So, what do you want to say to me?" Aiden sat down in front of the iron table.

According to the prison guard who passed the news, Arsenal seemed to have information about the flow of drugs in the prison.

But what came out of Arsena's mouth next was explosive information that was completely beyond his expectation: "Prisoner 3340 in Room 13 colluded with Ophelia, and they were preparing to let the prisoners in the infirmary launch a riot. , and then take the opportunity to escape from the cell and come here to kill you. In about two minutes, they will start to act. "

Aiden took a few seconds to digest the news in his mind, and then he straightened his face and asked, "Then how did you know?"

"They tried to win over me. Now they asked me to come here just to lead you to the conference room so as to determine your position." Arsena said with a poker face.

Next, she explained in a simple and clear manner how prisoner 3340 helped them break the devil's contract and gave them a potion that could temporarily restore their magic power.

"Then, are you going to sell them now?" Aiden finally understood the situation.

"It might be more cost-effective to trade with you, Dai Li thinks so too." Arsena said calmly.

Then, now -

"I didn't expect it. I didn't expect that the 'ant queen' who had been arrested by the Inquisition Bureau for so many years without even catching her shadow would actually fall into my hands today."

Aiden folded his hands and said to the two female prisoners in front of him who could not move.

The noble blood prince Ophelia and the witch Mirukinu who trained the King of Killers could only stare at the warden standing in front of them.

The reason why they neither attacked Aiden nor ran away with oil on their feet was because their hands and feet were firmly grasped by Shadow Demon's claws, and they were hung in the air in an unsightly manner.

To their right, the witch Daly held a short staff with a gloating smile on her lips.

When she was first captured by the Shadow Demon, Ophelia attempted to struggle to her death. With the power of her prince-level vampire, she could have split her body into a large number of bats and escaped.

However, there was a necromancer at the scene who knew a lot about vampires. Arsena quickly added a "haunted" curse before she left, sealing her magic.

"Bastard!" Ophelia looked at Arsena, who was standing expressionlessly on the left, and yelled, "Are you brainless? I took you with me when I escaped from prison, but you betrayed me like this?"

"With our old friendship, I don't want to, but he has given too much in return." Arsenal replied calmly.

"I don't understand!" Mei Liujinu also looked at Dai Li on the other side, "It's obviously only one step away. I've already helped you unlock the devil's contract. Why did you choose to help this man? Get out of here. Isn’t it good to have a prison?”

She has now understood that she and Ophelia were played by these two women. From the beginning, Daly and Arsena had been preparing to sneak attack on them.

Looking back now, in the core area at that time, Dai Li grabbed the prison guards before Ophelia and put them into the duty room, and broke the door lock. She was basically protecting the prison guards - if Dai Li didn't take action , I'm afraid they will all die in Ophelia's hands.

"Just because you want to leave doesn't mean that I want to leave." Dai Li shrugged, "There's nothing wrong with being here. You can concentrate on studying black magic like before, and there will be people to take care of your food and accommodation. The most important thing is that you won't be harassed by officers and soldiers. Interfering with bounty hunters and…”

As she spoke, she looked at Aiden and smiled secretly: "With such a good man, what reason do I have to leave?"

Mei Liujinu was dumbfounded on the spot.

"Do you think they helped me because they were coerced by me using the devil's contract?" Aiden interjected, holding his hands. "That's wrong, they voluntarily put on the devil's contract because they agreed to do things for me. The devil's contract is just an insurance policy. That’s all. They do things for me because I will give them benefits. Do you know why I choose them for transactions?”

"Why?" Mei Liujinu asked subconsciously.

"Because I can give them what they want, and you trade with them, but you don't know them at all." Aiden spread his hands, "Daly used to live in the Shadow Ruins, and Asena was in the Dark Jungle. In order to delve into the darkness, they Magic and necromancy, living in seclusion away from the world, is worse than a prison. If I allow them to study magic in prison, what reason do they have to leave this prison? "

"Permission to...research? What they are researching is forbidden arts!" Mei Liujinu didn't understand at all.

"Yes, they were sentenced for researching forbidden arts, and that was because they did not get approval from the Heretic Inquisition. So I used my methods to help them get approval, as long as they were willing to take out the research results and communicate with the Heretic Inquisition. Share." Aiden raised his lips, "If the research is valuable, I can get them a reduced sentence."

He also learned this experience from his previous life. He used the specialties of prisoners to engage in scientific research and inventions in prison, so as to fully realize the value of prisoners.

Dai Li and Arsenal were both thrown into prison because of their obsession with forbidden arts.

For prisoners, Aiden has a more avant-garde vision than other law enforcers. In the eyes of other prison guards, these people are just dangerous witches, but in Aiden's eyes, although these people are dangerous, they are also rare talents. They even master some secret arts that are more advanced than the black magic managed by the Inquisition.

And talents should be put to good use, even prisoners are the same.

For Daly and Arsenal, since they can continue to study forbidden arts, it is better to stay in prison than to be wanted outside in fear. When the sentence is completed, they will no longer be targeted by others after obtaining the permission to study forbidden arts.

Therefore, they will not betray Aiden easily, and Aiden knows this very well.

In fact, the only value of the deal proposed by Mirujinu is that they have the opportunity to sell out Mirujinu and Ophelia in exchange for a reduction in sentence and compensation.

"I have to admit that you are really good. I am afraid I am not as good as you in plotting." Aiden approached Mirujinu and said slowly, "There is only one reason for your failure, that is, you underestimated my means of running this prison."

After all, he is best at his old profession. This prison that he managed carefully, Mirujinu's tricks are still not enough to subvert.

Mirujinu looked at the man in front of him and gritted his teeth unwillingly.

"You also, finally made the right choice based on your own ideas." Finally, Aiden turned around and looked at Evansa behind him.

"Is this all?" Evansa looked at him in confusion.

"Yes, as long as you don't do the wrong thing, it's enough." Aiden smiled, "After all, the rules of the prison are just like this."
