Chapter 1056: A joyful reunion (1) (1/2)
The maze also functions like the address code in the key. It is ever changing. But since he is the one who design the maze, he understood the logic of the maze.
But, he did not need to solve the maze since he is the administrator of the Nowhere Land. His key is of course different from other people key.
And this is actually a backdoor. It is faster than using the other methods. And there is only a few staff that was allowed to use this backdoor.
He walks inside the maze.
And Trisha follow him from behind.
The maze is full of white misty air.
For the staff, this misty air, at most would only hinder a bit of their sight.
It did not matter whether you are Pillar Forming leveler or Disk Formation leveler, no matter what kind of powerful vision you have, once you were blocked by this mist, it would hinder your vision.
This mist like most of the thing that is in the Nowhere Land is also not something that is naturally here. Like the walls of the facility is taken from some other land, this mist was taken somewhere around the Stonehenge.
Loki did not simply come to the Stonehenge every year to just talk with Erika. It would not be like him to do things without purpose.
He also grabs a few things there.
However, the mist reacts differently to enemies. To enemies, the mist would not simply hinder their vision, it would also poison them
It is not lethal however. As most of it is kind of like a tranquilizer.
After all, this place is mostly about keeping people inside. While it is not easy to enter this place, to get out of it, is even harder.
And Loki borrows some theme from World Government prison, The Maze.
Well, it is not like the World Government original idea to add a maze on the entrance of their prison. They too got the idea from the Maze of the Minotaur.
Then after going out of the maze, finally they arrived toward the building of the prison.
Loki nodded in satisfaction as he looks at the new and improved look of the building.
'It seems that there have been a lot of changes even to this bleak land'
Trisha walks and stand beside Loki and said
'Well, the prison needs to be bleak for the prisoners. It doesn't have to be like that for the workers too right?'
Loki nodded
Then Trisha added
'We deal with torturing people, madmen, psychopaths. You would not believe the things that come out of their mouth. Though we do torture them once in a while to release our stress, still, it is not good to always be subjected to such mental stress'
She said
'It would not be bad for us to relax a bit during our rest time. I built a few rec rooms for them. And the simulation staff were kind enough to help. One of the person working in the simulation room had the same personality as that one office character, so we called him Dwight'
Loki raised his eyebrows and said
'I watch the memory disc. The Office is quite funny' she said and not missing a beat she continues
'Though the people in the Killing Room, I mean, the Extermination Chamber always seems giddy for some reason when it is their shift. I think they have something wrong in their heads just like the prisoners' she said
Loki eyebrows raised higher and said
'I don't think that they would like it if they heard such words coming from you'
'Ah, don't worry about it my lord. They know what I think of them. And they don't really care. After all, the background of those people serving as the executioner of the Extermination Room is not one would call usual background of good people. They have some stories.'
Then she chuckles looking at Loki
'Just joking. Taking some pages out of your playbook, my lord'
Loki chuckles.
'You become cheekier as years passes'
'And my lord is still the same. pretending not to understand, pretending to be blind. Why am I so cheeky? Why I do not like being called a child? It seems my lord would always pretend' She sighed
Loki only smiles bitterly.
'Let us go inside before we talk about certain things' Trisha nodded.
As they walk outside the building of the prison, Loki could see some staff of the prison drinking coffee under the canopy while talking with each other
Some is laughing with each other while some is reading something from their AI phone. It almost seems like they do not know what is happening outside the world right now
Well, not every organization in the Nowhere Land is military armed organizations or clandestine operatives.
Some of them maintained the internal working of the Nowhere Land and did not meddle on the outside world matters.
Every once in a while Loki would encounter some of the staff walking along the hallway. They all bowed towards him with respect.
