Chapter 509: Meeting Bai Qi Again
“Two of the Main Plot Quests from Silvermoon have appeared and have been taken, I wonder who has taken the other one?” Jiang Feng mumbled to himself when he made his way to the dungeon.
He felt that the three main plot quests were not going to be as simple as he first thought. It should have something to do with Silvermoon’s future.
“I’m here!”
Very quickly, he made his way to the palace’s dungeon.
The dungeon was located to the West of the palace where it was under a permanent shade, and it was extremely humid there. Its outer perimeter was heavily guarded and the power level of the guards posted here was mostly at Rank Five Lesser Sacred Master and above. Normal players or NPCs would not be able to approach this place easily.
“Greetings, my lady!”
When the patrols and the guards saw him approaching the dungeon, they all saluted respectfully.
“Mhmm,” Jiang Feng nodded and headed straight to the dungeon’s iron gate.
The guards knew what to do and each of them summoned a key from their palms, and inserted the four keys into the iron gate’s four keyholes, and opened it.
As he had the appearance of Black Widow and Black Widow was the warden of the dungeon, it was very common for her to enter the dungeon. That was why the four guards did not feel suspicious of Jiang Feng’s ident.i.ty at all, as they were all used to the procedure.
Once he had entered the dungeon, he could smell the scent of something foul coming from within. He frowned as he walked down the stairs.
As he walked down the stairs, the dungeon’s gate was once again closed.
He did not pay much attention to it. Even if the dungeon’s gate was closed, it would be easy for him to leave if he wanted to.
As soon as the fake Black Widow walked down the stairs and saw several soldiers drinking, he walked over and said to them coldly, “Bring me to Bai Qi!”
When the soldiers saw him, they were all shocked as they sweated and nodded continuously.
Normally, when Black Widow discovered them drinking, she would severely punish them. But what surprised them was that Black Widow did not punish them, and they thought that it was weird.
Although they felt that it was strange, they still brought him to Bai Qi’s prison earnestly.
“My lady! Please let me out! I will never do it ever again!”
“You d.a.m.n spider! Kill me if you dare! Or when I get out, I will crush you into a million pieces!”
“Hehe, here comes the big spider! Big spiders, small spiders, the fire burns, and then nothing is left…”
…
As he walked past the prison cells, some of the prisoners were begging him, some were cursing him, some had already become insane and mad.
When he saw that there were wounds all over the ones imprisoned with some of them even having lost half the skin on them and become bloodied and battered, his two fists were tightened into a grip as he was angered.
He knew that King Zhou was brutal, but he did not expect him to be so cruel, torturing them to the point where they were no longer wholly humans, to the point where they could not die even if they wanted to. He had lost all his morality.
He suppressed the flames in his heart and continued deeper into the dungeon.
After walking for a while, he could smell the scent of food.
He did not expect there to be a kitchen within the dungeon.
The kitchen was a large room located between the first floor and the second floor of the dungeon.
Curiously, he went to the kitchen.
But the moment that he entered the kitchen, he could feel the rage building up in him, threatening to spill over.
When he entered, he saw that a cook was humming a tune as he added some spices into a giant cauldron. Stew was being cooked in the cauldron, and he could see a dozen human heads within it.
There was also a powerfully-built man slicing human flesh from the bones with a giant cleaver.
In a steamer, there were several children being steamed.
‘Breathe… Breathe…’ When he saw what was happening, Jiang Feng kept on trying to control his emotion so that his rage would not explode.
He did not expect that King Zhou would use human flesh to make food for the prisoners. What he was doing here was worse than Zhenyuanzi’s Ginseng Fruit Tree as well as the Divines and the Necropolitans’ act of imprisoning the humans by manifold.
If it were not because he had not seen Bai Qi yet, he would have gone over and killed all the chefs and then kill King Zhou.
Once he had managed to control his emotions, he walked past the kitchen and continued to walk into the second level of the dungeon.
There were also some prisoners on the second floor of the dungeons, but there were not many of them.
The third floor of the dungeon was the last floor, and everyone imprisoned here were violent criminals.
These were all the people that King Zhou disliked.
And Bai Qi was imprisoned here.
When he arrived on the third floor, he then saw that there was a salt lake in the middle. There was an iron wheel on the salt.w.a.ter lake, and Bai Qi was bound on the wheel. As the wheel spun, Bai Qi’s head would submerge into the water, and when he was spun up, the salt.w.a.ter would flow down from his head and soak his entire body.
When the salt.w.a.ter soaked the wounds, the intense pain was enough to make someone collapse.
Next to the salt.w.a.ter lake were three gigantic crystal spiders. The crystal spiders would leave behind a fresh wound on Bai Qi using their claws. To stop Bai Qi from dying, they would even feed him pills for him to heal.
The torture could only be described as inhumane and atrocious.
However, even when being tortured, Bai Qi did not black out. He did not even make a sound as he put on a brave face.
After Jiang Feng entered, he then had the soldiers that had entered together with him leave and close the door to the third level.
The three giant crystal spiders looked at Jiang Feng with suspicion.
Obviously, they had already sensed Jiang Feng and their mistress’s difference.
“Trans.m.u.te Monster!”
Jiang Feng did not waste any time and restored to his original form. He immediately appeared next to a Crystal Spider and used Trans.m.u.te Monster.
Ding. System Prompt: Trans.m.u.te Monster successful. You have received 1 Poison Sac, 1 Lesser Sacred Master’s Experience Pill, and 1 Drop of Sacred Blood.
“Sword of Time, Time Break!”
When he saw the other two crystal spiders attacking him, he also quickly started attacking.
If he wanted to save Bai Qi, he then needed to kill the three Rank Five Lesser Sacred Master spiders. Not to mention that they already knew that he was a fake. He could not let them stay to prevent any problems.
That was why when he attacked, he used his most powerful skill.
The two crystal spiders that were attacking Jiang Feng were affected by Jiang Feng’s skills and their attacks were reversed. In the next moment, Jiang Feng appeared next to them and violently slashed one of the crystal spiders.
“Nine Kills!”
He did not stop and he quickly used his second most powerful skill, and immediately killed that crystal spider.
“Trans.m.u.te Monster!”
After fighting the final crystal spider for about half a minute, he then used trans.m.u.te monster and trans.m.u.ted the third crystal spider.
In less than one minute, he had eliminated the three Rank Five Lesser Sacred Master Spiders. It was clear how terrifying his burst damage could be.
“Cough… You have finally come,” Bai Qi said calmly, and he was not surprised at all when he saw that Jiang Feng could easily kill the three crystal spiders.
