Lux's Farewell

Chapter 412 [0408]
After the plan was formulated, Lux, Ino and Sona split into three groups.

Sona found her mother, Le Stara, to learn about the current situation.

Lacus didn't wait at home for the result of the exchange between her father and the king, but went out of the city directly.

Ino, who received the least attention, quietly left the Crown Guard Manor with Kalya.

Her goal is the forbidden area of ​​the capital of Demacia, where mages are imprisoned - the Arcatraz.

If the conversation between Sona and Lestara was an insinuation through normal channels, then Ino's trip to the Arcatraz was a secret and direct inquiry.

Sona learned about the Illuminati through Lestara, and Ino sneaked into the Arcatraz to investigate the demon seekers stationed here, as well as a few silent people related to the demon seekers.

In the plan made by the three, the position, attitude and strength of the Silent Man are very important, but because the organization is too low-key, it is not a simple matter to really find the Silent Man.

It is possible to find the Silent Man through the Illuminati, but according to their current understanding, the Bishop and the Silent Man within the Illuminati are also considered to be very different. It may be quite difficult to find the Silent Man through this way.

Just when they were at a loss, Sona suggested a possibility.

If you want to have direct contact with the Reticent Man, then going directly to the Arcatraz might be a good choice.

Hearing what Sona said, Lacus and Ino were quite surprised.

You know, before that, Ino used to live in the Arcatraz, and Lux ​​visited the prison many times, but the two of them didn't realize that there was a Silent Man working in the Arcatraz.

"I'm just guessing." On this matter, Sona didn't dare to be sure, "Sometimes the choir will hold performances inside the Illuminati, and that's the only occasion I've seen the Silent Man—at that time I I also wondered why the always mysterious Reticent would be mixed up with the Demon Seeker."

"Then, you asked the demon seekers?" Lux quickly understood Ino's train of thought, "It turned out that those demon seekers worked in the Arcatraz?"

"That's right." Sona nodded, "So, if nothing else happens, those Reticents who travel with the Demonseeker are also working in the Arcatraz."

Maybe the Arcatraz is a forbidden place for ordinary people, but for the current Ino, it might not be too difficult to sneak in and take a turn.

In order to understand the Silent Man more directly, before Jarvan III responded, Eno started a sneaky investigation.

........................

The Arcatraz is no different from the past.

This semi-underground prison is located in the desolate and remote northeast of Demacia Xiongdu. There are no residential houses or markets around it. The nearest building is the garrison camp of Xiongdu.

As one of the places with the highest level of security in the entire Demacia Xiongdu, there is only one entrance to the Arcatraz.

The two gates made purely of enchanted stones are thick and heavy, not only have amazing protection capabilities, but also need to be opened with hinges. Since the establishment of Demacia, this prison has never had a problem.

Perhaps because of the infallibility of the prison, when Ino approached here, the mageseeker soldiers guarding the prison looked slack.

This is understandable - the Arcatraz is impenetrable, and the guards at the gate here are not so much sentinels to protect the safety, but more like humanoid sculptures to decorate the facade.

Among the demon seekers, there has been a saying that statues are not as good as seals, and seals are not as good as sticks. Among them, the statue is worthy of the demon seekers who stand guard in places such as the Arcatraz or Dawn Castle that have no security significance—and in addition, the seal It refers to the civilian staff among the demon seekers, and the stick refers to the demon seekers who carry sticks and chains to enforce the law on the front line.

It was morning, and it seemed that when the new shift-shifting demon-seekers had just had breakfast and started to work, none of them looked energetic.

For Ino, this is great news.

The guards are careless, so they can relax easily.

After looking at the surrounding environment, Ino had already found a way to enter the Arcatraz Prison without Karya's command—she bypassed the careless demon hunters guarding the gate, and went directly to the Arcatraz On the roof of the prison.

As mentioned earlier, the main body of this prison is semi-underground, which can reduce the possibility of prisoners escaping as much as possible and improve the effect of secrecy, but for Yinuo, this semi-underground building means that he can pass The roof, quietly approaching the door.

Avoiding the sight of the demon seekers, Ino quickly came to the position she wanted - standing on the roof of the Arcatraz Prison, not far below her was the only way to enter this prison.

"The distance here should be about the same." As if to cheer himself up, and as if to report to Kalya, Ino pressed his hands on the wall of the Arcatraz, and said in a low voice, "Sure enough, the city walls here are It is made of the forbidden magic stone, and the magic power in it is full of power, and I don't know how long it will take!"

A thin layer of floating ice spread from Yinuo's palm. Obviously, she was using ice instead of her eyes to observe the reality of this prison.

"That means that the capital of Demacia is still safe at present, and will not blow itself up to the sky." Kalya laughed and said, "How about it, can you act with the help of elements?"

"Let me try."

Ino nodded.

Then, as she increased the output of magic power and the ice floes gradually thickened, an almost undetectable click sound appeared.

The movement seemed to be stiff for a moment, and Ino's expression became a little subtle.

"What's wrong?" Feeling Ino's hesitation, Kalya asked a little strangely, "Has your magic been discovered?"

"No." Ino shook his head, "It's just a bit of a coincidence, I probably found the place where I used to live... Besides, as you said, just relying on the magic stone material as a defense is not enough to build a magic fortress .”

The next moment, as the ice that had just condensed on the Arcatria shimmered, Ino's figure disappeared from the roof of the Arcatraz Prison—along with the ice, she easily penetrated the heavily guarded prison. The gate entered the interior of the Arcatraz Prison.

And the place where you can see are the small cells where Ino was once imprisoned.

Then, just when Ino gradually got used to the dim environment in front of him, in a prison cell not far away, a pair of dim eyes were carefully sizing up this unexpected guest who appeared suddenly.

For some reason, he just felt that the silver-haired girl in front of him seemed somewhat familiar.

I... have I seen her somewhere?
