Little Gui's live stream.
"Folks, let's continue the story!"
"Right now, the perspective splits into two paths!"
"March 7th has discovered an uninvited guest suspected to be a Borisin in Stargazer Navalia…"
"anwhile, the Trailblazer is heading to The Shackling Prison to leave a testimony."
"Now, we'll take the Trailblazer's perspective to see what The Shackling Prison is really like!"
"Hehe, I have to admit, Little Gui is a bit excited!"
After saying this.
Little Gui clicked [Let's Go Now].
A line of text imdiately appeared on the screen.
[So ti later, a Starskiff carries you and Dan Heng to a place that looks quite familiar…]
The familiar sound of flowing water.
Blue grass.
Coral-like plants growing in the corners.
This is… Scalegorge Waterscape.
Ahead.
Under the guidance of the ssenger, a vortex-like entrance had already been opened.
"By the summons of General Jing Yuan, we have opened the entrance, prepared the docunts, and are here to guide you. The judge from the Inquiry Departnt is also aware of your purpose."
Little Gui exclaid in surprise.
Without hesitation.
She chose to enter The Shackling Prison.
The scene shifted.
Stelle and Dan Heng arrived in front of a massive gate.
The bronze door was enormous, with a human face carved on it.
Dan Heng sighed, "The Shackling Prison… after so many years, I never thought I'd return here."
...
"Dan Heng has returned to his birthplace."
"Coming back here is just like coming ho (doge)"
"Light Cone: Brighter Than the Sun"
"Can you lock in the sa room as Dan Heng?"
"Dan Heng: Oh no, they're coming for ."
"Once you're in, make sure to reform properly and strive to be released early to start anew."
"The Shackling Prison exists across multiple realms, and this is one of the many temporary entrances for easy access."
"Thanks to the friend from the Ten-Lords Commission for the explanation~"
...
The gates slowly opened.
Rows of guards stood on either side.
They stepped inside.
A corner of The Shackling Prison was officially revealed to all the players.
The prison appeared as a cylindrical structure that extended endlessly downward.
The central watchtower was connected to both sides by nurous chains.
On the platforms near the railings, ghostly flas flickered, casting an eerie glow.
This made the environnt even more sinister.
Looking down.
Countless prison cells were densely packed like a honeycomb, disappearing into the darkness beyond sight.
"Tsk tsk tsk..."
Little Gui exclaid in awe,
"So this is The Shackling Prison!"
"And according to the comnts from the family, this is just the tip of the iceberg!"
"Finally, we get to see what Dan Heng's hotown looks like..."
Also in The Shackling Prison were envoys from Yaoqing.
Jiaoqiu and Mozze.
The two were waiting on another high platform for the judge.
Jiaoqiu sighed, "The Shackling Prison of Luofu... is completely different from Yaoqing's. It's actually subrged underwater."
"Whether it's in the sky or underwater, escaping would be a piece of cake," Mozze said coldly.
"Kid, are you getting that old itch to break out again? Stop sizing it up. You're a free man now. If the judges catch wind of any suspicious intentions, they'll throw you in for a few hundred years."
"In a few days, you'll see again."
"Escorting Hoolay back to Yaoqing is not only crucial for the relationship between Yaoqing and the foxians but also of great importance to the general. Be careful."
As Jiaoqiu finished speaking, the judge arrived as promised.
"Gentlen, my na is Xueyi. I am here under the orders of the Ten-Lords Commission's Lock Division."
...
"Lady Xueyi!!! (pounces)"
"Oh no, she's here."
"A scene from the preview suddenly ca to mind."
"Cherish Xueyi."
"From their conversation, it seems Mozze has quite a story too!"
"Those who often escape know..."
...
Both sides exchanged so relevant information.
Xueyi widened her eyes and emphasized seriously, "Even though you two envoys from Yaoqing have heard legends of Hoolay since childhood, you still know very little about him. Only the judges of the Ten-Lords Commission truly understand what kind of monster is imprisoned beneath The Shackling Prison."
"Since the forr Swordmaster of Luofu, Jingliu, captured Hoolay, hundreds of years have passed, and The Shackling Prison has never allowed Hoolay to be fed. Yet, despite being starved to this day, he is still alive. This is completely inconsistent with the recorded physiology of the Borisin."
"The Forest of Swords, created by the Punishnt Division, is an execution device ant to inflict the pain of the Karmic Wheel on heinous criminals. Most Borisin cannot survive more than three days under the Forest of Swords. But this monster is different. The mont the blades pierce him, he heals. Even after enduring this punishnt, he remains alive."
"The various bizarre traits of this beast are the very reason all these rules exist. Do you two understand now?"
Jiaoqiu stopped joking, "I apologize for my rudeness... Please continue, my lady."
"I have already provided you with the visitation precautions regarding Hoolay. Please read them carefully."
[Visitation Precautions for Hoolay]
Little Gui read attentively.
The notes within highlighted Hoolay's imnse power and terror!
But by the fourth entry.
The tone suddenly shifted.
[Fourth, avoid ntioning Jingliu in conversations with the prisoner.]
...
"At a glance, I see Jingliu below."
"Is Empress Jing just ssing with you?"
"Haven't seen my Jingliu since version 1.4 (crying)."
"Jingliu: Whether I'm on the Xianzhou or not, my legends still spread across the Xianzhou."
"That woman's influence keeps rising."
"Miss you, Hoolay, the King of Endurance."
"The Forest of Swords, Blade's enhanced Basic Attack…"
"Blade also endured this punishnt; Hoolay's situation is likely similar to Blade's."
"Hoolay must have received Abundance's blessing too, right? And definitely a lot!"
...
Xueyi and her group began heading to the lower levels.
Just as they passed a team of law enforcent officers.
Jiaoqiu suddenly stopped.
As if he had caught a whiff of sothing in the air.
"Judge Xueyi…"
"What is it?" Xueyi turned back, puzzled.
Jiaoqiu pondered, "No, it's nothing. Maybe it's just my imagination… let's go."
He glanced back once more at the silently departing law enforcent team.
In the end, Jiaoqiu didn't voice his suspicions.
For Jiaoqiu, it was just a slight unease.
But from the players' omniscient perspective, they knew all too well!
That team of law enforcent officers.
The Cloud Knights and guards within…
Were most likely Borisins in disguise!
And they slipped right under Jiaoqiu's nose!
A miss is as good as a mile!
Many players in the livestream were frantic!
...
"Speak up, Jiaoqiu! Say it!"
"Sotis, being suspicious isn't a bad thing."
"Jiaoqiu just felt sothing was off, but he probably couldn't imagine it would be such a serious issue, right?"
"After all, there are already many Borisins imprisoned here, so the sll isn't unusual."
"The main thing is, he only has intuition, no evidence. The evidence hasn't been sent over from Yanqing yet!"
"It's over, it's over. The Shackling Prison is being infiltrated by Borisins!"
"What on earth is going on?"
"Why do those damned Borisins have such a disguise ability?"
"Probably Phantylia's doing…"
"Who knows what the current state of the Shackling Prison is? Can Luofu respond in ti?"
...
The Shackling Prison.
In the office of the Underworld Officers.
At this mont.
Hanya was busily operating the Jade Abacus.
Her brows furrowed.
Her pupils darted left and right.
Scanning across several screens.
Real-ti information from different cells and pathways entered her view.
Suddenly.
Hanya's pupils contracted.
"Found you!"
"Sister."
After confirming the location.
Hanya didn't waste any ti.
She imdiately headed to the corresponding spot.
A few minutes later.
Hanya finally caught up to the figure.
"Sister!"
The figure ahead was hiding in the shadows.
Upon hearing the voice.
It vanished from its spot.
In the next second.
It appeared behind Hanya.
And.
A pair of cold hands covered her mouth.
"Silence."
"The traces of Hoolay's escape are just ahead!"
Xueyi gently removed her hand, signaling that she wouldn't make any more noise.
Lowering her voice.
She spoke gravely, "Sister, you must leave here imdiately."
"Don't forget, you died in the storyline!"
Xueyi, while observing the movents ahead, replied nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter. That was just the destruction of the physical body."
"But since the plot has already foreshadowed this, it ans you're still in danger. What if Hoolay decides to go all out this ti and annihilates your soul as well?"
Upon hearing this.
Xueyi hesitated for a mont.
Of course, she was afraid too.
Afraid that she might never be able to work alongside her sister again.
And Hoolay undoubtedly had the power to destroy all of this.
Seeing this.
Hanya continued, "The preview didn't foretell my [death], so I'll be the one to track down Hoolay's whereabouts."
"Sister, you go and inform the other three generals."
Xueyi's expression imdiately turned serious. "No, if I die, I can still return to life. But if you die, it's over for good."
"Then... let's go together."
"I've already sent the information through the Jade Abacus. No matter what happens ahead, the generals will surely arrive in ti!"
