Early the next morning, the scarred jailer opened the cell door with a gloomy face. He was surprised to see that although Luo Kai looked half-dead, he wouldn't die in a short time. He had used his hidden strength when he whipped Luo Kai a few days ago. Even a normal person with a strong body would be seriously injured, let alone a weak prisoner. If there was no one here to treat him, he could imagine what would happen to him. But this kid was still in this state after so many days. What the f * ck!
He scolded angrily, "Brat, you're lucky. Get up and eat!"
Luo Kai had already smelled the intoxicating aroma of meat. He secretly swallowed his saliva. After the scarred jailer left, he carefully sat up and looked at today's meal. In addition to two cornbread, there was also a bowl of fish soup!
The fish was obviously not cleaned. There was a fishy smell, and there were still many fish scales left. Luo Kai suppressed his desire to eat and hesitated. Why was the food so good today?
After thinking for a long time, he couldn't resist the temptation of food. He picked up the bowl of soup and wolfed it down. The fish was a kind of sea fish. It didn't have any bones. Although it wasn't cleaned, it was still delicious for Luo Kai.
In the next ten days, he was given a bowl of fish soup every day. The food also increased from one meal to two meals a day. The scarred jailer's face was always gloomy, but he didn't do anything to him. Obviously, this was all because of the new warden.
After another ten days and nights, Luo Kai's shriveled body became full of energy. He also had the energy to start exercising. In a trance, he even felt that it was good to continue like this. Man's desire was endless, but at the same time, it was also very easy to satisfy. Once he got rid of the misfortune, he would feel that everything in the world was beautiful, even if he was in a cage.
On this day, the sound of heavy footsteps could be heard. The scarred jailer opened the cell door rudely. He smiled malevolently at Luo Kai and slowly walked towards him. Suddenly, he reached out his hand and picked Luo Kai up like an eagle grabbing a chick.
Luo Kai struggled with all his might, but the scarred jailer's strength was astonishing. His fat palm was like an iron hoop that tightly gripped Luo Kai's neck, making it difficult for him to even breathe. After a while, his face turned red from suffocation. He steeled himself and tightly gripped the iron awl in his hand …
At this moment, the scarred jailer seemed to have sensed something. He paused and suddenly punched Luo Kai in the stomach. Luo Kai immediately arched his body like a shrimp. He felt that the punch had penetrated his insides, as if his intestines had been pulled into a ball.
"Little bastard, behave yourself!" The scarred jailer sneered.
There was a long corridor outside, and strange candles that emitted a faint blue light were placed on the walls.
The cells were divided into two sides. Through the narrow window on the iron door, one could see that most of the cells were empty.
After passing through the long corridor, one came to a room filled with all kinds of torture instruments. There was a huge iron chain, and an iron table covered in dark red blood … A middle-aged man in white sat in the room. Several jailers with short guns at their waists stood on either side of the man.
The scarred jailer threw Luo Kai to the ground like a dead dog. He turned to the middle-aged man and respectfully said, "Sir, there are two more."
"Yes, they are both here." The middle-aged man waved his hand.
Luo Kai curled up on the ground, his body trembling violently because of the pain. There were two ragged prisoners lying next to him. One of them was a black man with skin as dark as charcoal, and the other was an old man with white hair and a beard. Like Luo Kai, these two prisoners were also emaciated and skinny. They looked at Luo Kai expressionlessly and turned away.
After a while, the scarred jailer dragged another skinny man and threw him next to Luo Kai.
Luo Kai had already recovered from the pain. He quietly sat up and leaned against the wall to observe the people here. He noticed that the only person in the room was a middle-aged man. He was wearing clothes that had a faint white glow, as if they were made from the scales of some kind of animal. He felt a little dizzy just by looking at him.
A series of heavy footsteps sounded. Luo Kai turned to look at the door. The scarred jailer walked in with a gloomy face. Behind him was a huge man who was almost two meters tall. The most frightening thing was that there was another pair of arms under the two pairs of arms. The four arms moved slightly with each step. Together with his huge body, he really looked like a humanoid monster.
What kind of world was this?
Luo Kai's mouth opened slightly. He looked at the monstrous man in disbelief. He was finally sure that he was not on Earth.
"Pa!
The scarred jailer fiercely whipped the four-armed giant and scolded, "Kneel down!"
The whip was very strong. The giant's huge body staggered. He turned around and glared at the scarred jailer. His huge face trembled slightly. It was obvious that he was furious.
The scarred jailer sneered and waved the black whip in his hand as if to threaten him.
The four-armed giant took a deep breath and slowly squatted down.
The scarred jailer put away the whip with satisfaction and turned to the middle-aged man respectfully, "Director, the five prisoners of the death row prison have all been brought here."
"Yes."
The middle-aged man looked at them and said loudly, "You have all committed the crime of beheading. You should have been executed long ago. However, last year, when the Great Emperor of the East ascended the throne, he issued an edict to pardon some of the prisoners. You can be spared from death, but you can't be spared from punishment. Originally, we wanted to let you fend for yourselves.
The five prisoners were not only stunned, but their eyes shone with hope.
"Milord, as long as we can keep our mongrel lives, we're willing to do anything for you."
The speaker was the white-haired old man. He struggled to his feet, his wrinkled face curled up like a chrysanthemum. He forced out a smile and said flatteringly.
The middle-aged man nodded, then instructed the scarred jailer, "Third Bro, change them into prison uniforms. Tomorrow, send them directly to the mines of Southtooth Island." After speaking, he stood up and walked towards the door.
The scarred jailer's face changed, as though he hadn't expected that these prisoners would survive. Gritting his teeth, he hurriedly chased after the middle-aged man and said softly, "Milord, we took over a hundred death row prisoners, but only five have survived. These people aren't simple people. If we send them to the mines, they might cause trouble …"
The middle-aged man came to a halt. Frowning, he said, "Oh, but the Lord Warden ordered …"
"Milord, perhaps you don't know the ins and outs of these prisoners. They are all extremely vicious criminals. For example, that old man, nicknamed 'Shadowmouse'. Supposedly, he was involved in the theft of the Genetic Research Bureau. And that black man is most likely a member of the infamous Dragonshark Pirates …"
"Fine. I'll let the Lord Warden know."
The middle-aged man paused for a moment, then nodded. He said, "Third Bro, I hear that you've been here for over ten years. You must know this place very well. The Lord Warden and I are new here. In the future, we'll need your help."
The scarred jailer hurriedly said, "Of course."
Luo Kai and the other four were returned to their prison cells. For the next few days, nothing happened. It seemed as though the middle-aged man's promise to send them to the mines was just empty talk.
