Chapter 342 - Zhi Nans Might Surpasses the Heavens and Dharma (1/2)
The same night, at the Draconic Penitentiary.
By now, after a few expansions, the System Prison which was used to imprison spirits of Extraordinaires had already turned into something spectacular.
It was a square cuboid, with three hundred meters length-wise and fifty meters in height.
There were two tall buildings within the cuboid.
One of it was called the Evil Suppression Tower. After being refurbished, it had ten floors in total with a capacity of twelve thousand people, of which 6322 were occupied.
The other building, the Ascension Tower, was empty and had never been used.
The work on the second floor of Fang Ning’s Draconic Arcane Realm had just been completed. The third floor had yet to be completed, so its intended purpose as a net for the Ascension Tower was still unused.
In the prison officer’s office, Anderson was questioning a thug-looking spirit.
“State your name.”
“Wang Lei.”
“Age?”
“Twenty four.”
“You’re used to answering these questions, aren’t you?”
“Yes, I am.”
“Gender?”
“Male.”
“Wrong. After you’ve been inducted, you no longer have a gender. Do you understand?”
“S–sir, I don’t wanna drop the soap.”
Wang Lei was scared and immediately freaked out.
‘It’s one thing to be locked in a prison after I die, it’s another to be told to drop the soap…’
“Who asked you to drop the soap?” reprimanded Anderson. “I was only reminding you that in this place, there will be no genders. Everyone will just be a spirit. So buck up and be an obedient ghost. I’ll ask you again, your gender?”
Wang Lei’s street smarts helped him wrap around the situation quickly. He responded, “No gender.”
Anderson was satisfied. They thought, ‘Soul Consumption Demons like me don’t have genders as well.
‘If we found our way into a male’s body, then we’ll be male, and female if we found a female body to inhabit. So these inmates will need to follow this.
Don’t think that prison officers cannot make decisions.
“What’s your deal? Lemme rephrase that, what power do you have?”
Wang Lei divulged his ability to generate electric frankly.
Anderson was immediately interested and brought him to an interrogation room next to it.
Half an hour later, Anderson exited the room, refreshed.
Wang Lei felt as if he had been sucked dry, so he inched out with the wall as his support.
“Mm, not bad, I’ll assign you to a single cell. This is a treatment only the earliest inmates were able to enjoy. All the new inmates have been assigned to sharing cells. Only those with good performance and contribution were able to enjoy single cells.”
Anderson pointed to one side as Wang Lei was pulled by an invisible force to a single cell on the sixth floor of the Evil Suppression Tower.
Right after, Anderson returned to their office quickly and drafted a report.
“About the Conversion between New and Old Energy Sources: An Exploration”…
They thumped at the keyboard excitedly, ruminating on each phrasing in order for it to be clear and concise.
They believed the report would make the warden very happy.
As long as the job was done, their promotion would not be far away.
‘Hmph, those guys just wait. I, Anderson, will still be able to climb to the top even if I have fallen into Hell.’
They were silently congratulating themselves when a sound hit them. Dazed, it took them a while before they realized what was being spoken to them.
“Evil rises, evil falls, demons return to lair with this call…”
…
The voice reverberated in their mind for three times.
Immediately, they stopped typing on the keyboard and stood up soullessly.
Then, they moved sluggishly, heading out.
They kept waddling and swaying until they hit their head on the volcanic rock wall…
With a loud thud, Anderson snapped out of their trance.
They immediately realized many cells were in a chaotic mess within the Evil Suppression Tower. It seemed like all those who were causing troubles were demonic spirits.
“Quiet! Be quiet! How could you all be lured by this demonic voice! I think all of you were lacking the education of love and justice!”
As soon as the lot had heard the words ‘love and justice’, all the rooms quietened.
From there, it was easy to see how powerful love and justice was!
Anderson patrolled outside each of the cells that locked up demonic spirits.
After checking out the cells, Anderson was relieved. These guys could make noise all they want, it was impossible for them to break out.
War Demon Lei Tian’s cell was not an exception, of course, but they left the cell for the last to be inspected.
Anderson arrived at the single cell placed in the east of the top floor.
The cell was much more decorated than the other cells.
There were a Simmons bed, a bookshelf, a computer, and furniture. It was as nice as a three-star hotel room.
As the primary money-making staff, Lei Tian had brought Fang Ning enough wealth, so naturally, he could enjoy a slightly lax security.
