Beri, Penelope and the rest of the gang immediately left the palace and rode their horses towards the barracks.
As they rode in, everyone stood at attention and gave out a proper military salute with respect.
It took them over 38 minutes just to ride towards the back of the barracks.... before they had finally reached a very ma.s.sive 3 story building, which was very wide as well.
Stepping down from their horses, they immediately tried their horses on several iron bars that were placed there.
One could see it as a car park for horses instead.
.
"Welcome your majesty!"
As they walked towards the building, several soldiers who were either leaving or also going into the building, also greeted them as well.
And when they finally got into the building, they quickly did a body search too.
Of course Carona had tried to adapt to some of Baymard"s security measures, as they truly thought that it was brilliant.
Beri had to place all weapons to the side.... and after that, they would do a full body check on him just to make sure that he wasn"t hiding anything else.
And once that was done, they would give him back his weapons if he was authorized to walk into the prison with them.
If not, then the weapons would be placed in a metal drawer and locked with a Baymardian lock as well.
But in Beri"s case, they were the ones who would be in charge of transporting these prisoners.... so how would they not be authorized to carry their weapons in?
So after the body search, their guns and weapons were immediately given back to them.
.
"Din! Din! Din! Din! Din! Din! Din! Din! Din! Din!"
As they continued on, someone quickly came to their side in a flash.
"Hayden.... this is Lieutenant Beri from the Baymardian army and his men.
They are in charge of transporting some of the prisoners to Baymard, and are here to a.s.sess the potential threats that these prisoners May pose during the trip ahead."
"Greetings sirs!" Hayden said while giving a proper military salute as well.
Oh my heavens!.... he had actually met Baymardian soldiers?
He felt like he was dreaming!
"At ease soldier.
Now, give us an update on what"s been going on here."
"Yes your majesty!
Right now, the main problems that we"re facing..... are with the S-list criminals.
Just 2 days ago, Prisoner Rigoro Mandain... A.K.A Mad Rigo, killed one of our prison guards using only a spoon.
Your majesty... it"s best that we don"t go into the actual detail of how he did it.
But let"s just say that the prisoner"s face was unrecognizable after we had successfully separated him from the guard"s body.
The guard"s nose had been broken, half of his left jaw was missing, relieving his bones and teeth underneath... and his eyeb.a.l.l.s had both been scooped out by Mad Rigo.
In addition to that, we also found the spoon forcefully stabbed on the guard"s neck too.
And when we questioned Rigo about the entire incident, Rigo just giggled and spoke about wanting a new toy.
The toy he was talking about, where the guard"s eyeb.a.l.l.s.... which he now treated as a small ball."
As Hayden spoke, everyone became shocked.... well everyone, except Beri and his team.
.
One should know that the Baymardian prison didn"t give out metal or even ceramic objects to the prisoners even during their meals.
Giving them these objects, was equivalent to giving them weapons.
Listening to what Hayden had said, made up his mind to give them advice on handling their prisoners later on.
Because even though they didn"t have all the technology, there were indeed some basic things that they could do to ensure the safety of their guards.
First off, if prisoners were already labelled as S-ranked..... then there was no need for the guards to even come too close to the cells in the first place.
If they wanted to feed the prisoner, then they needed to warn that same prisoner to stand at the back of the cell before they slide the prisoner"s food in.
And if the prisoner refuses, then let he or her starve.
Eventually, they will be obedient and later stand back.
But of course if they were still very stubborn, then they would only be fed loaves of bread... which would literally be thrown through the cell.
No matter what, no prison guard should risk their lives just like that.
.
"Your majesty we also had a problem with Whindor Polipher! .. A.K.A, "The Meat Eater".
In his case, at least once in weeks, he would successfully bit chunks off the guards" arms and legs.
He hasn"t killed anyone yet, but he had bitten some of the men until their bones were showing."
Once again, Beri really wanted to ask why these people went too close to S-rank prisoners in the first place.
He truly needed to write down guidelines fr them immediately!
"What about the A-list prisoners, as well as 5he B and C-list ones?
Are they causing any trouble at all?
And how long do you keep each prisoner within those lower ranks?" Beri asked
"Sir!
For the C-list prisoners... which comprised of ordinary chicken thieves or grain thieves.... we have no troubles with these prisoners at all!
They are currently frightened and are quietly sitting down in their cells, waiting for their punishment from queen Penelope.
It usually takes at most 3 weeks, before judgment is pa.s.sed on each of them.
As for the B-list prisoners.... it comprises of those who were there when murders were committed but lied or covered up for the culprit.
These prisoners also didn"t give us any troubles at all.
Of course in their case, only when a case is solved could they be let free.
And finally, the A-list criminals are a.s.sa.s.sins and other murderers who will stay locked up here for at least 7 years each.
For sure, they also give us problems too, but not as much as the S-list prisoners." Hayden said while walking the gang through the prison.
.
And so the gang continued on.... until they reached the S-list sector.
Hen suddenly, they guard someone screaming at the top of his lungs.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
Dammit!
Which prisoner is at it again?
