King Ember's Journey to Tevat

Chapter 799: Prison Under the Deep Sea
"Gulu...Gulu..."

"Wow!"

A white water streak passed across the seabed, tearing apart the bubbles that rose from nowhere and disturbing the nearby fish.

With the headlights on, the escort boat was moving forward in the dim seabed, and their destination was the steel object whose outline had already begun to emerge in front of them.

They were rising steel towers, tall and huge, standing on the seabed, like the mountains that had existed here long ago.

Logically speaking, things so far away should not be visible at such a deep seabed, but there are countless huge searchlights installed on the high tower.

Even though these floodlights were not installed to illuminate the tower itself, the light they leaked was enough to allow people to see the building from a long distance.

The escort boat continued to move forward, and after crossing a certain boundary, the searchlight on the tower seemed to sense something and almost instantly focused the light on the boat.

Not only that, the originally bright incandescent light turned into a red light with obvious warning meaning.

Fortunately, this depressing scene only lasted for a while before it ended. After the lights swept across the escort boat, it returned to its original appearance.

Then, a routine and emotionless sound came from the bottom of the sea.

"Escort boat No. 0472, registered, open the gate to let it go..."

"laugh--"

As soon as he finished speaking, a gap appeared outside the tall iron tower. Seeing this, the escort boat immediately followed the surging water and entered it.

"Om-"

After the escort boat entered, the heavy steel door was closed again. No one noticed that a sneaky figure took advantage of the door opening and slipped in with the escort boat.

……

"Wow! Petersburg...it's really deep!" Coming out of the escort boat, the young man looked at the spacious steel passage in front of him and couldn't help but sigh.

Not long after he came out, he heard a noise coming from a distance.

"Ta! Tat! Tat!"

That was the sound of long boots stepping on an iron plate, so clear that it immediately attracted the young master's attention.

He looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man wearing boxing gloves and a fur cloak walking towards him from the other end of the corridor.

"I just don't know if such deep water can retain the famous young master."

"Leosley, the Duke here, of course, you can also roughly understand it as the warden."

Leosli walked up to the young master and stretched out his hand to him.

"Um……"

The young master glanced sideways behind Leosli and saw a wider space at the end of the corridor.

The steel dome was so large that he couldn't see the end at a glance. The steel towers he saw outside were probably just the tip of the iceberg of this building.

But if it's just a prison...does it need to be so big?

The young master shook his head and put aside the doubts in his mind. This place is so big, he will be staying for a while, so he naturally cannot anger the person in charge here.

"Tardalia, we will be in the same space from now on. If you don't cause trouble for me, I won't cause trouble for you either."

He smiled and shook Leosli's strong hand. Even though he was already in the Petersburg, the young master's momentum did not diminish in the slightest.

When Leosley heard this, he smiled heartily.

"Haha, there really is such a cooperative executive. I thought Villette had learned to joke, but he actually spoke the truth."

"No problem. As long as you fulfill your responsibilities as a criminal, no one will come looking for you."

Leosli emphasized the word "criminal" a little more. He could give the young master some preferential treatment because of his strength, but if the young master wanted to be a free man in Meiluo Petersburg based on this, it would be absolutely impossible.

"Understood, understood. If you want to preach, please hurry up. If you want to hand out pamphlets, please give them to me now. I'm in a hurry."

The young master waved his hand nonchalantly. The criminal's responsibility? It was nothing more than some physical labor. He had done this many times in Liyue and Inazuma, so he was definitely an expert at it!
"I don't need to preach, but as for the pamphlet, maybe I can consider it later." "Come with me, the Duke will introduce you to some criminals who can receive this treatment. Not many of them can get this treatment."

Leosli shook his head and led the young master through the steel corridor and moved around in the huge Petersburg.

Meropenem is more of a huge city than a prison, and even its structure has many similarities with Fontaine - both places are divided into several floors.

When people along the way saw Leosley, they stopped to greet him as a sign of respect, and he usually responded with a nod.

"Tsk! I didn't realize you were so cool."

"Melo Petersburg is a prison first, and then anything else. As the Duke here, it is necessary to maintain authority."

Leosli simply explained. After saying this, he stopped in front of a fragrant building.

"This is a franchise canteen. You can come here every day to get a free franchise meal. Of course, what you can eat depends entirely on your luck."

While waving his hand to signal the prisoners who were eating to sit down, Leosli explained the function of this building to the young master.

The other prisoners who were either secretly watching or dining saw the Duke personally explaining to the young master, and they became curious about him and couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.

Who is this guy who could make the Duke treat him like this?
After noticing this keenly, Leosli raised the corner of his mouth in an imperceptible arc.

It was finally worth it that he personally took the young master around Meiluo Petersburg. He estimated that after today, there would be no blind guys who would cause trouble for the young master.

For a person like the Young Master, it is natural to stabilize him if possible. Otherwise, if a conflict arises, it will be an immeasurable trouble for both Meiluo Petersburg and the Young Master himself.

Thinking of this, Leosli felt that Fontaine had really thrown a hot potato at him.

This kind of guy should be fed with alchemical potions and thrown into prison. Are you afraid that he won't be able to escape?

But there is no need to worry about this in Meiluo Petersburg. Even if the young master blasts through the super-thick steel wall outside, the most that can happen is that both parties will perish.

In the deep seabed, the sea water suddenly poured back. A flesh and blood body would be crushed into a meat patty in the face of such a force.

"Oh, you think you're so lucky? We in the Zhidong Prison provide three meals a day." The young man crossed his arms, not knowing what Leosley was showing off.

Prisons in other countries provide three meals a day and they don’t brag about it, so why are they showing off when Fontaine only provides one meal?
"That's because the prison in Merope Petersburg is different from other places." Leosli didn't say much. He turned around and walked in another direction.

"Hey! Wait for me!"

Upon seeing this, the young master immediately followed.

Not long after the two men left, a strangely dressed guy came to the franchise canteen.

"I want a concession meal."

"Give."

The waiter in the cafeteria didn't care about Yu Jin's outfit at all. In Merlo Petersburg, any violation of the rules will be pointed out by the guards. As long as the guards don't say anything, you don't have to care about anything, no matter how strange the thing happens - this is the second rule of survival in Merlo Petersburg!

"Really? Without even checking?"

Yu Jin looked at the lunch box in his hand, opened it, and found it was ordinary. His luck had always been like this.

"Why is there still a little brat here? Here you go."

Yu Jin casually handed the lunch box to the curious little girl beside him and followed the young master without looking back.

You have to keep up, if you are late you won’t be able to see anyone anymore!

"Hmm... What a strange person. Is he the knight from the story? Why would a knight appear here?"

Lenore, who was standing by, was holding a lunch box, her little face full of confusion.

"Let's go ask Brother Carter! He must know why!"

After making up her mind, she took today's unexpected gain and ran to find "Brother Carter".
