Fantasy Simulator Chapter 749

Chapter 749 - - Prison Guards

Tap tap…

“This is the place.” In a dark corner, Kana led Chen Heng forward and arrived at a prison along the way.

“This is the place where criminals are imprisoned. Usually, the criminals captured by other departments will be imprisoned here.” Then, looking at Chen Heng behind him, Kana spoke softly and explained.

“Prisoners?” Chen Heng returned to his senses and spoke with some surprise.

The King’s Council was undoubtedly a criminal organization in various countries. In other words, every member of the King’s Council was a criminal to the people of the other kingdoms. However, what kind of people could be called prisoners by the people of the King’s Council then?

“They are all serious criminals.” Then, sensing Chen Heng’s thoughts, Kana smiled and said, “Although the King’s Council is not well-known, we are still a decent organization. At least we are legal in many kingdoms. It’s just that our names are a little different.”

He smiled and said, “We exist as a Chamber of Commerce in many places. So many people among the kingdoms are our members. The kings of some small countries are also our members.”

Chen Heng was stunned at first, then realized, ‘How impressive.’

The King’s Council’s power was much deeper than he had imagined. Even the kings of many small countries were members of the King’s Council. One can imagine many things based on this sentence.

In this world, except for the three great empires, the other countries had more or less been infiltrated by the King’s Council, which was indeed interesting.

Chen Heng looked around with interest, looking at the criminals in prison. According to Kana, the criminals in this prison were all real criminals sent directly from the prisons of the various kingdoms. However, more than half of the people here were innocent based on the criminal standard in this world.

In the past, the King’s Council would select some sacrifices from these prisoners to carry out various bloodline experiments or other things.

“According to Elder Jameson’s order, this area is now under your control.” Kana handed a bunch of keys over to Chen Heng, “The prisoners here are mostly ordinary mortals. As for those with special bloodlines, they can only be found on a higher level. The defenses there are also more tightly guarded. You control this place. If you need anything, you can just take them from here. They are consumables anyway.” He said casually and did not care about the prisoners before him.

The prisoners here were consumables to them. Therefore, they did not need to care much about the prisoners. This could be seen in the surrounding environment. The environment of this layer of prison was terrible. It was filled with various dirty things. There were even corpses lying there, emitting a rotten smell.

One wouldn’t be able to live longer in such an environment, even if one wanted to. The people here basically treated these prisoners as consumables, usually only storing some of them for use when required.

“Someone will send them here every month. You just have to use them carefully.” Kana said casually, reminding him, “Be careful not to use them up.”

“I understand.” Chen Heng nodded with a smile on his face.

Chen Heng waited for Kana to leave before he fell into deep thought. Then, finally, Kana’s words revealed some information.

‘Once a month, the prisoners will be replenished. This means that most nearby kingdoms have already been infiltrated and belong to the King’s Council.’ This thought flashed through Chen Heng’s mind.

Having the prisoners replenished once a month was difficult in this world’s traffic environment. Moreover, a month was too short if they relied solely on horse carriages to transport. Therefore, only the nearby kingdoms would probably be able to transport them in time.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Heng left and walked deeper. Wails sounded all over the place along the way.

“Kind master, please let me out!”

“I didn’t commit a crime! Let me go!”

As Chen Heng walked along the cells, the people around him let out waves of sounds, which seemed particularly intense.

Chen Heng looked at the prisoners around him and did not say anything. From its looks, the prisoners around him still did not understand the situation and thought they were locked up due to the crime committed. However, this was the understanding of ordinary mortals.

Ignoring the wails from all directions, Chen Heng walked forward and arrived at a higher level. This prison was specially built by the people of the King’s Council, looking like a tall steeple from the outside. The lowest level of the prison was naturally for mortals. The higher the level, the fewer people locked up, and the higher their strengths were.

As Chen Heng walked to the higher level, the number of people locked up gradually decreased to only one-tenth of the first level. Although the prison cells in the surroundings were relatively fewer, they still appeared empty. This is because not many people were locked up there.

As Chen Heng walked over, pairs of cold eyes stared at him from the dark cells.

“Hey, looks like there’s a new person here.”

“Let me see. It’s a young man this time.”

“He’s much better than the previous old guy.”

The prisoners around Chen Heng stared at him with a sense of danger in their gazes. Chen Heng was not surprised. Before coming here, Kana had warned Chen Heng to pay attention to his safety. Compared to mortals, the prisoners here were all of the bloodlines, so the level of danger was naturally much higher.

Based on Chen Heng’s knowledge, the last prison guard seemed to have been killed by a mortal’s attack.

“You guys look energetic.” Then, Chen Heng smiled and said, ignoring the cold voices of the prisoners around him.

He had a smile, and his voice was very gentle, like a gentleman. However, many prisoners suddenly shivered after hearing his voice, as if they were frightened. As they looked at Chen Heng and saw the smile on his face, they felt an inexplicable sense of terror, as if a ferocious beast was lurking in the dark without knowing why.

Chen Heng did not care about the prisoners’ reactions. He kept a smile on his face and continued to walk silently. Then, he walked to the front, looked at the prisoners around him, and walked around with a sincere smile. After a long while, he left this place with satisfaction and walked to the higher floor.

Watching Chen Heng leave, the people present let out a sigh of relief and unconsciously relaxed. Compared to ordinary mortals, the senses of those with bloodlines were much sharper. Hence, they could sense the danger hidden under Chen Heng’s smile.

‘This was a terrifying figure.’ This thought flashed through everyone’s mind as they watched Chen Heng.

Chen Heng didn’t care about the thoughts of the prisoners behind him. In his opinion, these people were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered. At most, they were just a little fierce. However, in the end, this was his property. Hence, he didn’t have to care about their attitude.

After patrolling, Chen Heng walked to the higher floor. Unsurprisingly, the higher the floor, the fewer people were imprisoned here. After reaching the fifth floor, there wasn’t even a single person.

This minaret had a total of seven levels. Although Chen Heng didn’t have much hope in his heart, he still finished visiting the final level and went up the top stairs out of rigor.

“Eh.” However, to Chen Heng’s surprise, someone was at the top-level minaret.

Compared to the bottom level, the prison on the top level was much tidier. The decorations around it were also better. One could tell that the prisoner here was treated like a VIP. Those who could be imprisoned on this level were naturally extraordinary and were not simple people.

Chen Heng had deliberately asked Kana before and was informed that only the royal family was qualified to be imprisoned here. Moreover, only the direct bloodline of the royal family was qualified to be imprisoned here, not some kind of collateral bloodline.

In other words, the person imprisoned here had at least the same status as Chen Heng— the prince of an empire.

Walking to this level, Chen Heng looked around curiously.

Someone was also staring at him. It was a calm gaze of a skinny old man sitting at the end. He was very thin, sitting there like a statue. His bronze-colored skin was not eye-catching in the dark dungeon. If not for the faint aura on his body, even Chen Heng would have thought that he was a corpse.

His gaze followed Chen Heng the moment Chen Heng walked in. His attitude was very calm compared to the other prisoners who were previously imprisoned. He just sat there, not saying a word.

Ta… Ta…

Light footsteps sounded in the attic, heard clearly in this quiet place. Besides the sound of Chen Heng’s footsteps, the place was silent. There was no sound at all.

“Hello.” Chen Heng said as he looked at the old man, “As you can see, I’m the new prison guard here. I’m afraid I’ll stay here for a while. As your partner for the time being, aren’t you going to introduce yourself?” Chen Heng said with a smile.

The old man looked calm and didn’t seem affected by Chen Heng’s words. He indeed looked like a statue. Chen Heng didn’t care about the old man’s silence and kept a smile on his face. However, from the old man’s body, he felt his bloodline throbbing in his body.
