After being punished once for eating, Shadow Weaver's prison life entered a relatively peaceful period.

After all, she was a prisoner in the "Fengquan Order". She didn't have much other activities besides eating, drinking, and defecating on weekdays, so the chances of being persecuted were really slim.

Of course, if you really have the intention, you can create opportunities even if there are no opportunities... However, Sara Ambrolin is not such a crazy person. As the deputy warden, she is also very busy with her official duties. A prisoner made her feel a little unhappy when she was in prison, so she kept biting him for a long time... So, after she established her authority, she no longer took Yingwei to heart.

In this way, the days passed by in a hurry.

In the blink of an eye, January 15th arrived, and Yingwei had been in jail for more than a month.

To her, this period of time does not feel like "a month has passed", but it clearly feels like a year has passed.

Many people think that torture is the most effective way to break the human spirit, but in fact, it is just "one" of the "faster" methods; this form of breaking down the psychology by inflicting physical pain is not suitable for most people. All are effective, but there will still be some tough guys who can handle it.

However, there is another method, but almost no one can handle it.

This method is very simple to say, it is "imprisonment", but it is not "jail" in the ordinary sense, but is similar to the experience of being held in a "confinement room" in a prison.

To be more specific, it is to lock a person in a small space that can maintain basic survival needs, without any communication with him/her, and to clearly tell him/her that this process will continue forever.

Some people may think that this is not a big deal.

Yes, being locked up like this for a few hours or even a few days is not a big deal, but once the days get longer, it becomes an extremely terrifying experience.

When a person is imprisoned and unable to obtain any new information for a long time, the first thing that begins to decline is his/her sense of time...and then his/her thinking ability will slowly decline and become worse. At this time, in order to save itself, the brain will dig out various short-term or long-term memories and solve the problem of "unable to obtain new information" through recall, but this is just drinking poison to quench thirst... in the absence of external information stimulation Under the circumstances, the memory that the human brain can access at any time is extremely limited. When those memories are repeatedly taken out and "used", the brain will fall into a more "hungry" state. At this time, the person has already On the verge of madness.

At this stage, some people's brains will begin to create "hallucinations" and establish a false channel for obtaining information; others will have strong suicidal tendencies and seek relief; there are also examples of creating multiple personalities to solve problems...

In short, "imprisonment" is a far more cruel method than "torture" when it comes to "breaking down people's mental defenses" and has a higher success rate.

The "Fengquan Order" is a place where this method is regarded as a routine detention method.

Not long after Yingwei lived here, he discovered that it was not necessarily a good thing to have food delivered to his door every time. It was also not necessarily a bad thing to have to queue up to participate in group activities and fight with others every day... Being a human being After being deprived of the right to communicate with the outside world and blocked from all channels for obtaining information, time will become a poison with no solution.

Fortunately, there was an alien across the street who would chat with her from time to time. This was her only entertainment here.

Nini is a very pragmatic guy. After testing Shadow Weaver's "capacity", he directly stated that he wanted to jailbreak and needed Shadow Weaver's cooperation.

Shadow Weaver naturally had no reason to object to this. She was originally waiting for Zi to come and save her, and she didn't want to stay here for the rest of her life; but if Zi didn't come or the rescue failed, she would cooperate with Nini. It never hurts to prepare a “backup plan”.

However... when Nini revealed his plan that had been "in the making for many years", Shadow Weaver's expectations immediately dropped to freezing point.

Before talking about this plan, let me first introduce the basic situation of Nini——

As Nini said, he is an alien; in fact, he is not an ordinary alien, he is a "superhero" and belongs to an organization called the "Cosmic Superheroes Alliance".

About fifteen years ago, as a "city-level hero", Nini encountered an unexpected change during a group field mission: he and several other heroes who were originally responsible for supporting the rear were attacked by the enemy. After a fierce battle, all his companions were killed and he himself was seriously injured. At the last moment, seeing that the important technological spaceship was about to fall into the hands of several super villains, Nini resolutely decided to detonate the power furnace of the spacecraft and die with the enemy.

As a result, the spacecraft exploded and all the enemies died. However, Nini was caught in the overloaded jump engine moments before the explosion and miraculously survived.

When he woke up, he found that he had arrived in a place called Earth.

As far as Nini knows, this is an extremely remote planet located on the edge of the Milky Way. The intelligent life forms on this planet have not joined any alliance established by the galaxy, so he cannot send a distress signal to alien planets here.

To make matters worse, he soon realized that... the technology of this planet was far from reaching the level of making a "curvature transmitter". In other words, even if he knew how to make a transmitter, with the technology on earth, Energy, chips and raw material processing technology are not enough to support him to make things - it is like asking an engineer to travel back in time to the late Eastern Han Dynasty to make a smartphone, there is no chance.

There is a saying that "when people are unlucky, their teeth are blocked when they drink cold water." The same applies to aliens... The problem Nini faced after coming to Earth was not just being unable to return home.

He had been on earth for less than a day, and he was caught by the Federation before he was even witnessed by civilians. Afterwards, the Federation casually sent out a few messages like "Someone was COSing the Predator in public." The gossip fooled him into this matter.

The Federation didn't tell him anything about alien rights... Even if they wanted to talk to him at that time, Nini hadn't learned the language on Earth yet... So Nini was immediately imprisoned in "EF" and became a living experiment Taste.

During the years of the brutal experiment, Nini slowly mastered human language, so he revealed his identity to the bureaucrats who had the power to decide his own destiny, and also told many things about the "Yuchao Alliance".

Ten years ago, he had basically been "experimented" and asked the Federation to implement the Basic Law of the Universe as the "Earth's legal government", to do its best to assist him in returning to his original star field, and to respond to what he had done to him. A formal apology...and the federation just laughed at it and locked him up.

The only reason why they didn't kill Nini and dissect him was that... the Federation was still a little afraid of the "Yuchao Alliance" he mentioned; according to Nini, there were quite a few guys in that organization who could explode stars, and With "time and space level" detective technology, even the destruction of corpses and traces cannot hinder the investigation. If one day these superheroes really track down and leave a person alive, there will still be room for mediation.

In this way, Nini, the "hero", was thrown into the highest level prison on the planet by the human rulers without doing anything wrong.

Since he is not a superpower or a mutant, the "suppressive gas" in the Nine Hells is ineffective against him, so his detention measures are also specially created.

Nini, who has been subjected to in vivo experiments for five years, must have been tested long ago on what kind of substance he would be suppressed by... Therefore, the cell where Nini is staying has embedded in the outer wall of the all-alloy There is a solid coating of osmium, including on the inside of his cell door; staying in this environment, not only can Nini be unable to use his special abilities, but he will also feel weak throughout his body.

As for his food, it mainly consists of petroleum products. Considering the cost, most of the time he is given plastic or paraffin and low-quality diesel to drink. Of course, he is not picky... because he has no sense of taste.

Except for taste, Nini's other four senses are much more sensitive than ordinary humans, so even from a cell apart, he can clearly hear Yingwei's heartbeat, pulse, and breathing... and use this to judge the other person's body. situation.

In addition, Nini's intelligence is quite high by human standards. It was with the support of this intelligence that he came up with an extremely clever escape plan-"Demolish the Door."

Although this seems to be a straightforward plan similar to "digging tunnels", it is actually extremely technical and feasible.

The doors of the standard cells of Fengquan Order use traditional swing doors instead of electronic doors; and any cell door here requires the presence of a deputy warden or above to open, and the key is also held by the deputy warden. Five people above the warden are personally keeping these doors, and even the warden on this floor cannot open these doors.

In terms of design, the locks of these prison doors can be said to be flawless; once a prisoner used his powers to pour tap water into the keyhole, and it quickly solidified into a hard ice key, but it was still unable to Open the door... because the door locks here have already replaced the "filled-in and pop-up master keys" that were prevalent in the 23rd century (two common future master keys, the principle is to rely on filling in the keyhole to complete the shape, the former uses The latter is a foam-like substance that can solidify quickly, and the latter uses metal needles. It is precisely because of the emergence of these two types of keys that doors equipped with traditional locks were eliminated by electronic doors within a few years)" Prevent a Tight and tight, the "sea urchin-style" trap and "barb inlay" inside the lock make any lock picking methods meaningless.

The cell door itself is also extremely strong, even more difficult to break than the walls around the room. Even the iron rods on the small fence window above the door and the baffle of the food delivery port below the door are extremely hard.

So, where is the breakthrough point of this kind of door?

The answer is...the door axis.

This is a point that all swing doors cannot avoid at the design level, and the prison door here is no exception.

Part of the door axis of the prison door ordered by Fengquan is exposed on the outside of the door (generally the door axis of household doors is on the inside of the house, but the opposite is true for prison cells), that is, on the corridor side; although all parts, including the axis, are made of It is made of pure alloy, but because of the existence of springs and bearings, there must be a gap between the two shafts embedded in the upper and lower parts... If external force is applied to it at an appropriate angle and the axis pops out, this part of the door leaf can be made Detach from the door frame.

Nini...that's what he had in mind - since there's no way to open the door from the lock side, then unscrew the door from the door shaft side.

To do this, we must rely on "tools".

Although Nini's power is limited, he still has some "physiological characteristics" that cannot be suppressed; just like us humans can grow nails, produce secretions and form earwax, Nini's mouth also secretes A "wax"-like substance that can stick to each other, shape freely, and become extremely hard when exposed to water.

Nini's plan is to accumulate this wax and make a wax rod that can span the corridor, and make the top of the wax rod into a shape similar to a crowbar, and then use the small fence at the top of the cell door to Extend the pole out of the window and pry open the cell door on the opposite side (because the gap in the small fence window is very small, you cannot bend over to pry on your side)... Then, let the person living opposite use the pole to open the door on the opposite side. The door is also removed.

Once Nini comes out of this "Osmium Cell", he can take down the prison guards here with his strength alone; as long as they can release as many prisoners in the Fengquan Order as possible before the arrival of deputy warden-level figures. , and try to escape to other levels of the prison to muddy the waters, and you will have a good chance of escaping.

However, this whole plan has a very troublesome technical problem - the "alien saliva wax" that Nini can secrete every day is limited, or... it is pitifully small, and the speed is basically the same as that of humans He accumulated earwax at about the same speed; he came up with this plan eight years ago, but in the past eight years, the people who originally lived in Yingwei's cell and agreed to cooperate with Nini have all died of old age. The length is still not enough.

To take a step back, as far as Shadow Weaver knows... the warden and four deputy wardens of this prison are all capable users with fierce level or above. Even if Nini and she successfully removed the cell door and released a sufficient number of The prisoners triggered a prison riot... Without external aid, a group of prisoners with limited abilities were still lambs to be slaughtered in front of those five people.

Therefore, after hearing Nini explain the entire plan, Yingwei felt a chill in his heart; rather than waiting for this guy to save up the jailbreak tools, it seemed more reliable to wait for Zi Lin's rescue.

Speaking of this... Zi Lin told Ying Weaving at the beginning that if everything went well, within two months, he would personally lead a group of fierce gods and evil spirits to invade the Nine Prisons to rescue Ying Weaving.

What he said was not just talk, but seriousness.

Just today, he, or "they"...have arrived.

…………

January 15, early morning, northwest of Chernobyl, Pripyat River Basin.

An old fishing boat without any markings on the outside was moving slowly on the river.

The man driving this ship is a notorious mad scientist, and everyone calls him "Dr. Franklin".

In addition to him, there were several other passengers in the cabin, namely:

"Judge", Lance.

"The God of Death", Jack Anderson.

"The Chosen One", Uncle Xue.

"Qiongqi" means Fang Xiangqi.

"Sacrifice", Li Xiaofan.

and "Veteran," Solid Wilson.

Their mission today can be summed up in just four words - "Destroy the Nine Prisons"; but the meaning behind these four words, as well as the difficulty and danger of execution, are really difficult to describe.

On the other hand, on the other side of the Wuzhi River south of Chernobyl, a team of people was riding a medium-sized armored shuttle approaching the dead city on the snowy field.

The passengers on this shuttle are: Zi Lin, Meng Yuanhan, Che Wuchen, Anshui, Sakaki Wuhuan, Lilia, Kaijiu and "Gun Ghost" K.R. Schwartz.

…………

In the early morning, at 2:15, the armored shuttle was underway.

"What did you say?" Lilia slapped the table and shouted to Zilin, "I finally ran out of it, and now you want me to sneak in alone to help you pass a small note to a little girl? "

"It's okay if you don't hand it to her. Anyway, you are familiar with how to use it, so it's just the same if you hold it." Zi Lin responded calmly, "Of course, in addition to the pages of the 'Book of Heart', Please bring a few other things..." As he spoke, he took out a suitcase, placed it on the table, opened it, and then pointed at the contents and explained one by one, "This syringe contains It took the doctor a week to make the 'Mutant Alkane Liquid'. You have to give this injection to a guy who looks like a Predator in the cell opposite Shadow Weaver as soon as possible and ask him to give it to you. One shot... Remember, this step is very critical to whether you can successfully jailbreak, so don't mess it up.

"After this step is successful, you use the 'tool' that guy provided you to release him. As long as he walks out of his cell, he can destroy the doors of other cells and release the prisoners with just brute force.

"When she is causing chaos, you take Shadow Weaver and go to the machine room near the power room; on the way there, you first give Shadow Weaver one of these capsules, which can make her abilities increase within a few minutes. return to normal levels within.

"Then, you give her these strings of candied haws-shaped things, and let her activate her ability to bring these things into the air circulation system, and smash these liquid-filled beads one by one in the pipe..."

Zi Lin did not explain the purpose of each step to her, but just told her what to do, which would avoid a lot of trouble.

Lilia also listened to the words very carefully, but this did not mean that she readily accepted this arrangement.

"I said, if you let me go in and handle so many things by myself, why don't you prepare a set of battle armor or something for me?" Lilia then asked.

"No, there are metal detectors at the main entrances and exits of each floor. That thing is different from a 'smart probe'. The probe will only 'follow the target' when an abnormality is found, while the detector will directly activate the alarm; even if you yourself It is still in a 'non-existent' security state, but when the alarm goes off, all entrances and exits will be closed, and the prison's defense system will be upgraded to a new alert level, and your next actions will be out of the question," Zi Lin said. Then, he closed the suitcase and pushed it in front of Lilia, "By the way, just because of this, this suitcase and the contents inside are not made of metal."

"Tch..." Lilia took the box and spat with an unhappy look on her face, "You are so thoughtful, do I have to thank you?"

"You're welcome, everyone is here to get things done." Zi Lin accepted the other party's "thank you" with a smile, and replied, "Just go ahead with peace of mind. When you get to the step of 'triggering the alarm' , we will naturally coordinate our actions on the 'frontal battlefield'."

"Huh..." Lilia snorted coldly after hearing this, and then added, "Of course I'm relieved~" As she spoke, she put down her suitcase, walked around the table in two steps and came to Zi Lin, raised her hands together, and immediately He pinched Zi Lin's cheeks on both sides and said, "You are so strong and insidious... Why should I worry? Can you still trick me?"

While she was speaking, she was kneading the flesh on Zi Lin's face wantonly with her hands, and her own face had a ferocious expression of wanting to eat someone. This bullying-like behavior... was obviously a way to vent her dissatisfaction.

However, Zi Lin didn't resist much... First, the space inside the armored shuttle was very limited, and he didn't want to run around to avoid such childish behavior; second, deep down in his heart, he was very reluctant to talk to this person. A woman who behaves like a reckless man is generally knowledgeable.

At 2:30 in the morning, the shuttle that Zi Lin and the others were riding stopped dozens of meters outside the "Wall of the Abyss" warning field of view, and the optical camouflage was turned on.

At this time, Lilia, who was fully dressed, jumped off the shuttle, stepped on the wet soil under her feet, and set off towards the place where she was once imprisoned...
