Chapter 299 Black Pigeon Prison
In the quiet room, Sean slowly opened his eyes.
It took him a whole month to finally digest all the abilities he gained after being promoted to Crimson.
Of course, in addition to the new abilities gained through familiarity and the strengthened old abilities, he also had to adapt to something he had never experienced before - pollution.
No matter how deep the understanding was before, even though Sean himself had been exposed to and cleaned up many different types of pollution, when he really put it on himself, his experience was immediately different.
The pollution itself is difficult to describe in words. If I have to put it in words, it is very similar to the feeling of ants crawling around the body when ordinary people are nervous. The body feels like there are small bugs wandering around for no reason - the difference is that pollution The feeling of ant walking comes from deep in the soul.
Every time the ant feeling occurs, Sean can feel that something in his body seems to have been eaten away by non-existent insects, and there is something new in another corner that is closely related to him. Keep surviving.
That is proliferation.
Shaun finally understood why it was extremely difficult to increase his strength once he reached the level of Crimson.
His power is constantly being multiplied and divided. At the same time, he still needs to continue to absorb power to support himself and multiply. In layman's terms, before, one person could feed the whole family without worrying about it, but now he has to be alone. Come to support a family of three - proliferation is like a wife who is passionate about petty bourgeoisie life and a tireless gold-eating beast merging into one, constantly absorbing Sean's own strength.
"We still have to fight against the negative emotions such as mental instability, bloodthirsty, and devouring caused by the pollution itself. No wonder..."
Clenching his fists, Sean muttered.
In this world, the greater the power you have, the greater the price you have to bear.
Although with the presence of Xiao Ci, Sean can continuously purify pollution, he also noticed that once the pollution process is interrupted, the growth rate of his strength will immediately slow down.
"A dilemma... You can only maintain your level by purifying it after your strength reaches a certain level... The problem is that most crimsons may not be able to survive until that time."
Sean couldn't help but think of Bai Youming. According to his own speculation, the opponent was most likely to be dark blue. Even if not, he should have one foot into the realm of dark blue.
How did he survive the previous process... It seems that there are still many things that I still don't know...
When Sean walked out of the secret room, the hall outside In the center, a bunch of people are gathering around...eating hot pot?
"Brother, are you okay?" Sherrill handed over his bowl...the big basin.
Looking at the pile of food inside with disgust, Sean rolled his eyes at Sherrill, then turned his head and dug into a pile of minced garlic: "Do you know how to eat hot pot?"
With that said, he sat down, picked up Sherrill's big basin and started eating directly.
After reaching the deep red level, he can convert external energy into his own body, and there is no problem even if he doesn't eat.
However, on the one hand, the energy in the entire world is not pure and full of pollution. On the other hand, food can be regarded as a way to quickly replenish energy. There are still only a few crimsons who do not eat.
Cheryl happily put the vegetables into his basin: "I don't like the taste... Brother, I feel like I'm almost done. In another half month, I can try it. "
Sean's eyes lit up: "Okay, then pick a place. There is no need to hunt this time, we will just guard it for you. "
As he spoke, he nuzzled at Ake.
Ake, who came over to eat, felt moved in his heart. He always blamed himself for not protecting Sean at that time. Although Sean came back from the dead, he would never bear this responsibility. lay down.
Now, Sean still trusts himself...
Acker nodded and swallowed a few pieces of meat: "Don't worry, leave it to me."
This guy He's a solid-eyed guy... Sean nodded with satisfaction: "How are you doing lately?"
"Basically, there are no big changes," Ake continued. "The prince has already told the insiders about your resurrection, and no one else knows about it yet. After His Highness was furious that time, everyone in the imperial capital was very honest during this period. Everyone thought you were dead, and due to other factors, no one dared to make any noise at this time."
As he said that, he seemed to think of something: "By the way, Golden Dawn. Ming's area suddenly reached full speed. The area at the Gate of Dawn was completely cleared a week ago, and the territory department has been assigned to your name. Even though you are dead, no one dares to ask His Highness what happened. Deal with it. "
Sean held his chopsticks in his mouth and thought about it. He still remembered that Bai Youming said that there were still benefits, but he had to get it back by himself, referring to the Gate of Dawn.
It seems like there must be some secret hidden there that cannot be moved.
He nodded to indicate that he understood.
Moza thought at the side and said: "The third prince Baiyou has been imprisoned in Black Pigeon. By the way, Concubine Lan's old nanny has also been imprisoned. Concubine Lan herself has temporarily moved out of the palace. Lan Youshan bought it for her. She found a place and stayed there temporarily."
Ake nodded: "The subsequent searches of Lan Youshan and Grand Duke Wen Cheng did not yield much results. They just investigated and dealt with some illegal assets in strict accordance with imperial laws. "It's quite a lot."
Seeing Sean's questioning look, he chuckled: "I am the one who is going to search. To be honest, without His Majesty's order, it would be unrealistic to move them both." But I got a lot of properties, and they were all transferred to your name.”
Shaun didn’t care about some of the properties. He waved his hand and said, “Just the working capital, you can share the fixed assets. To the brothers of Unit 0."
Seeing that Ake was about to refuse, he shook his head: "I know that you, Unit 0, are separated from your original family, but what if you get married and start a business again? Distribution is your business, I have no interest in that.”
Ake was taken aback for a moment, then nodded: "Thank you, Your Highness."
Shaun reached out his chopsticks to eat the meat in the hot pot again, and asked while eating: "How have Grand Duke Wen Cheng and Lan Youshan recently interacted with each other? The fourth prince is walking quite frequently?”
Ake shook his head. Head: "I was about to tell you, it's a bit strange. Logically speaking, the third prince is no longer eligible for inheritance. The fourth prince is the easiest to accept what he has left. Those two families need to find new homes. You should stay close to the fourth prince because of your emotions and reasons."
"I am here. I have been exchanging information with Moza for a while, but strangely, the interactions between Grand Duke Wen Cheng and the fourth prince have increased, while Speaker Lan Youshan’s attitude is very unclear, and he even has contact with the second prince. "
Seeing Moza nod, Sean thought about it Pan, smiled and said: "That old fox in Lan Youshan... I'm afraid he has seen something... In name, he is the grandfather of the two princes, but Bai Silian has the same scheme as his own brother. His grandfather I can’t believe my grandson either.”
"It's possible." Moza nodded, "But generally speaking, during the month you spent in seclusion, the second and fourth princes were the most active. The eldest prince Bai Zhan actually suffered some losses in the incident, but he It seemed like he had disappeared in a month, even..."
He glanced at Acker, who said: "I didn't even look for His Highness. It's strange. Everyone thought that His Highness was going to start. He personally participated in the fight for the inheritance rights, but the eldest prince who had the closest relationship with His Highness did not react at all."
"They say that the eldest prince is impulsive and reckless. I don't think this is stupid. Even if he finds Gao. Someone pointed me out..." Sean smiled, he patted his butt and stood up, "It's just that they are too conservative..."
...
Black Pigeon, this school The prison is located in the northern suburbs of the entire imperial capital and is sparsely populated. The four directions of the imperial capital, east, west, and south, correspond to the three major administrative regions respectively. Only in the north, which faces the rumored Laya Volcano and the Raging Sea, there is only a small area of relatively safe land in the middle.
There is no value for development. There are natural dangers around it, so few people go there.
I heard that there are different species living on the other side of the Raging Sea. When they cross the sea and bathe in the lava of Laya volcano, they will turn into terrible creatures - of course, these are all rumors. With today's technological means, there are not even picture records, and there are still only a few people who believe it.
The Black Pigeon Prison is located in the wasteland between the imperial capital and the Laya Volcano and the Raging Sea.
This prison is very prestigious in the imperial capital. In addition to accepting new prisoners, the special door here is only opened once a month to allow the guards to change shifts and obtain daily necessities.
As long as they enter here, no prisoner has successfully escaped.
What’s more interesting is that executions are never carried out in this place, and those sentenced to death will be transferred to other places. Moreover, Black Pigeon also has a commutation ordinance, whereby the warden is eligible to reduce a prisoner's sentence after ten years of good behavior.
Theoretically, it is possible to be released from prison after entering here - of course, the number of people released from prison is currently 0, because in order to protect the mental health of the warden, the warden is changed every five years.
What does your good performance during the last term as warden have to do with my new warden?
Just like the black dove trapped in the cage at the prison door, this place is an eternal prison of darkness.
At this time, in the rarely used reception room in the prison, a woman was crying softly.
"Bai You...it's me...I'm sorry for you..." Lan Ke'er couldn't help but burst into tears.
Is the haggard and decadent man in front of me the same as the energetic third prince Bai You in my impression?
Bai You's chapped lips twitched, and he showed a miserable smile: "The winner is the king, and the loser is the bandit. Bai You knows this... But Bai You doesn't understand why the wet nurse Will you frame me? Can you tell me?"
Lan Keer's pupils trembled violently, but she could only shake her head in pain.
Although the wet nurse proposed the assassination of Sean, she finally agreed.
Lan Ke'er originally thought that she had no chance of being exposed, but what she didn't expect was that the nanny would shift the blame to Bai You.
This makes her not feel guilty or upset.
Moreover, although she is not thoughtful, she is not that stupid.
As a person involved, if you think about it carefully, why didn’t she know that the fourth child had tampered with it?
Seeing that Lan Ke'er refused to speak for a long time, Bai You laughed miserably. He straightened out the prison uniform that smelled of stench and blood, and bowed respectfully.
"In today's situation, my mother is still willing to take risks to express condolences to me. Bai You is so grateful... I hope my mother will take care of her health. Bai You will not be able to fulfill her filial piety to you."
After that, He stood up staggeringly and walked towards his cell.
"Bai You..." Big tears fell, Lan Keer stretched out her hand to hold her back, but Bai You's back was already submerged in the darkness.
After sobbing in place for a while, she wiped away her tears, wrapped herself in clothes and walked outside.
When she saw the prison guard who brought her in, she stuffed a package in and said, "Please take care of him."
The other party showed an embarrassed look: "Don't be like this... I'll take you to see him. And the surveillance has been removed. This is already my maximum authority. He has a special status. To be honest, he has been given special care. But if he goes further... the warden will be held accountable, and my status is even more unforgivable. Okay.”
He didn’t lie to Concubine Lan. Bai You’s life in Black Pigeon was already pretty good.
Some pampered big shots came in and became crazy and unable to speak within a month.
Lan Keer couldn't help but put it into the other person's arms. She had no choice now, she could only hope that some of her thoughts would make Bai You's life a little easier.
Just as he was about to leave, suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps in the darkness.
Lan Keer subconsciously wanted to cover up, but after realizing it, she straightened her clothes.
Although it was against the rules for her to visit the third prince, at most she was criticized a few times, which was not a big deal.
In the darkness, the figures of two people gradually emerged.
On the side is the warden with a smiling face. He is slightly bowed and his face is full of flattery.
The person on the other side made Lan Keer's face instantly turn pale.
The cynical smile, the lazy and casual expression, and the pair of lake-blue eyes that hide countless things.
That is the person Lan Keer can never forget, and that person should obviously be dead!
"Xiao... Sean..." Lan Keer called out the other person's name in disbelief.
Hearing the sound, Sean turned his head casually. Immediately, a smile of surprise appeared on his face: "What a coincidence, Concubine Lan?"
"Aren't you... already dead?" Lan Ke'er said in horror.
Sean smiled slightly, he signaled, and the warden immediately led the people out.
Lan Keer wanted to follow in panic, but a hand appeared in front of her eyes, and a sinister voice sounded in her ears: "Madam...I was so wronged..."
< br>"No, it's impossible..." Lan Keer backed away in panic, but the place was only so big, and he reached the base of the wall in a few steps.
“Isn’t this all... thanks to you?” Sean’s smile gradually turned eerie.
...
"Master Warden, that, that is?" The prison guard stammered and followed.
Suddenly, the warden in front began to squirm.
A man carrying a black stick pushed up his glasses: "I just sneaked in to take a look, but I didn't expect to meet you... I'm sorry, you shouldn't remember anything today."
