Chapter 209: Dragon in Prison

Zhu Tian and Fang Yi had no more troubles on the way to the 'prison'.

Of course, we have to exclude the fact that after evacuating the crowd, Zhu Tian asked a roadside vendor for a paper bag and put it on Fang Yi's head, and beat up anyone who saw Fang Yi's face along the way.

Although Fang Yi had prepared himself mentally, he witnessed Zhu Tian slaughtering people at the city gate, asking for paper bags from vendors with a smile on his face, and then suddenly killing the shop owner and several innocent people around him. The guards who arrived quickly and skillfully identified these people as "revolutionaries".

Fang Yi finally gained a deeper understanding of the power of the [Minister] and the rampant behavior of his minions, as well as why the revolutionary army regarded the [Minister] as the root of the empire's corruption.

"This [Minister]'s power and the violence he wields are truly unheard of. Can the revolutionary army truly accomplish the task of killing the [Minister]?
"In the original novel, Zhu Tian was a supporting character who was plotted to death by Lubbock and died in less than one chapter. However, in the brief encounter, I could sense his formidable strength.

"Then can the Revolutionary Army handle Bud and Esdeath, whose position is currently unclear?

"Are the final missions of a 'scavenger' like Disma always so incredibly difficult?"

Unlike Fang Yi, who began to re-evaluate the difficulty of the task of killing the [Minister] and considered changing the [Minister's] position in his plan, Zhu Tian, ​​who had done these things, acted as if he had crushed a few ants.

After he put a paper bag over Fang Yi's head to cover his face, Fang Yi clearly heard the Rakshasa Four Ghosts mutter something again.

"I've liberated quite a few souls today, so I can say I'm doing a good deed every day."

A few seconds later, he smiled at Fang Yi again and explained the purpose of his actions.

"You might be selected for that project, so I helped you deal with some 'trouble'.

“Don’t ask what the plan is, you’ll know when it’s time to know.

"I'm only doing what's within my responsibilities. Once you enter that place, someone will naturally come to find you."

After seeing Fang Yi nod and remain silent, Zhu Tian wiped the blood off his hands with satisfaction and led Fang Yi to the "prison".
-
A few minutes later, with the help of Zhu Tian, ​​Fang Yi was officially "imprisoned".

He looked through the hole in the paper bag and found that the prison in the other world was no different, with the same high walls and deep courtyards.

The midday sun shines on the gray walls of the prison, making them look particularly dazzling.

The prison guards in front of the prison gate stood loosely, but after Zhu Tian approached, the playful expressions on their faces disappeared instantly, and each of them turned into a statue, with no extra expression on their faces.

Zhu Tianze appeared to be calm and unhurried, walking ahead and whispering to Fang Yi, "Wait until I tell you to pick up the paper bag before you do."

Walking into the prison gate, Fang Yi did not feel the coldness and oppression of the prison, but instead felt a strange quietness.

The warden had been waiting by the side. With a professional smile, he personally led Zhu Tian and Fang Yi to a "special cell".

The room is spacious and bright, with sunlight pouring in through the windows, and the air is filled with the unique warmth of the afternoon sun.

The surrounding layout is more like a leisurely and elegant aristocratic room than a prison cell.

Fang Yi could even see the neatly arranged sofas, coffee tables, and bookshelves, and there was even a well-tended plant in the room.

Zhu Tian pushed the iron door casually, and it closed gently without making any harsh sound, and even the lock was not locked.

It is obvious that Fang Yi's "imprisonment" this time is just a formality.

After Zhu Tian gestured for Fang Yi to sit down, he sat down on the chair opposite Fang Yi and spoke softly.

"The following conversation is initiated by me in my personal capacity and may bring you some benefits. If you can answer what I ask, please answer it. If you cannot answer, please remain silent.

“I will not ask questions that are beyond my scope of responsibility, and you should try not to reveal anything related to the tasks you are performing.

"This is the 'rule' set by the [Minister]. I hope you understand."

Following the notification sound of "Optional Task [Question and Answer with the Four Rakshasa Ghosts and Zhu Tian] has been triggered" in the main god space, Fang Yi nodded, pricked up his ears and began to think about how he should answer the other party's question.
-
Zhu Tian asked the first question.

"Have you ever served in the Imperial Army, or received instruction from a strong military officer?"

Although the question seemed casual, Fang Yi, who had analyzed the [Minister's] behavior, realized that this would be the first test for him to enter the [Minister's] eyes.

Fang Yi was silent for a moment and then gave his answer to deal with the background check.

“I don’t have any experience of military service, but my father once trained at the King of Fists Temple and later served in the Imperial Guards. I also trained myself with the goal of becoming an Imperial soldier.

“Although my life changed dramatically after my father’s death
"After I spent all my money, I had to return to my hometown and hoped to earn some money to support myself by joining the army, but..."

After Fang Yi told Zhu Tian about his identity woven together by the two spaces, and his miserable experience of having to live in a cramped hotel, Zhu Tian was stunned for a moment.

After a brief recollection, Zhu Tian finally found the figure of the "father" in the setting that Fang Yi mentioned in his mind.

After asking a few details about the 'father' fabricated by the space and confirming that Fang Yi was indeed the person he had trained with in the [Fist King Temple], Zhu Tian's eyes softened.

“It’s him, should I say you are lucky or unlucky?
"If he had died a few years later, you wouldn't have been so displaced and in such a poor situation.

“But you will most likely become the enemy of Budd, that is, the Minister.

"However, with your background, once you join the [Minister] and make some contributions, you will no longer have to worry about money and livelihood."

The four Rakshasa ghosts thought for a while and added a few more words.

"You didn't contribute anything to the [Minister] like killing members of the revolutionary army, so I can't directly reward you.

“But for now, ‘chatting’ about how to exercise your body is still within the rules of the [Minister].

“After you have officially passed Gozizi’s certification and met the [Minister] to gain approval and begin your work, I will prepare some items for you that will help you train your body.

"You were just trying to imitate my physical skills, weren't you? I'm sure you're also using unique techniques to train your own body. I could give you some pointers before Gozizi arrives here."

Apparently, the four Rakshasa ghosts, whose fighting style was somewhat similar to Fang Yi's, got along well with Fang Yi.

Not only does it benefit from the compatibility bonus of [Extraordinary Gravity], but it also benefits from [Favor of the Evil] and the trait [Attraction of Evil].

Fang Yi looked at the [Tiger Roaring Golden Bell Cover] on his system panel and felt that this was a good opportunity to learn and improve his skills.

Of course, he also understood that the other party's kind attitude was only towards the "Ambitious Imperial Wall" who might work for the "Minister".

Once his identity as the "Death God in the Mist Who is Easy to Do Evil Deeds" is exposed, the four Rakshasa ghosts who are currently kind-hearted and seriously guiding him in his cultivation will immediately become his enemies who will fight for his life.

Fang Yi had a premonition that the day when he and his opponent would fight to the death was not far away.

The moment he saw Gozizi appear on the city wall, he knew that a storm surrounding the [Death in the Mist] was approaching.
-
After completing the "Q&A with Zhu Tian, ​​the Four Rakshasa Ghosts" mission, Fang Yi successfully secured a chance to answer questions. In just over ten minutes of conversation with Zhu Tian, ​​he further refined his "Tiger Roaring Golden Bell" through "Diligent Study and Improvement" and, under Zhu Tian's guidance, discarded some of his own mistakes and unreasonable changes.

Now his cultivation speed has increased from 10 times that of ordinary people to 13 times that of ordinary people, which is a very exaggerated number.

It should not take a few days for his [Tiger Roaring Golden Bell Cover] to become [lv2] or even [lv3], providing him with some panel attributes.

These four Rakshasa ghosts, who had trained their bodies to look like the professional bodybuilders Fang Yi knew in his previous life, who would use needles everywhere to build muscles, were really obsessed with physical training.

He himself also has a unique set of body-building experience. He kept hinting to Fang Yi in his words that he would only teach him after he made contributions to the [Minister].

In response to this, Fang Yi expressed that he was already impatient to use his [Supernatural Gravity].

Although killing the opponent will have the bonus of [Enemy's Respect] and there is a high probability that the opponent's body-building experience will be revealed, Fang Yi still hopes to get it for free first, and at the same time try to keep this skill scroll.

After obtaining some camp contributions from the [Imperial Army Camp] and the [Minister Camp], the main god space has prompted me to try to summon followers.

He was already preparing to find an opportunity to summon his two followers to accelerate the growth of his own and his followers' strength.

I believe that Miss Shinobu Kocho has already prepared a lot of elixirs that can speed up the practice of horizontal training techniques, and she can feed them to herself.

At the same time, Miss Ganlu Temple can also try to use the [Oberg Assassination Technique] and the body-building method revealed by Zhu Tian, ​​and make full use of her [Big Eater] trait to accelerate the improvement of her strength and become her own reliable helper.

However, these things should not be done until Fang Yi kills Gozizi and Zhu Tian, ​​controls the [Oberg Assassination Society] and has a stable base.
.
A few minutes later, after placing Yuan Qi and an [Imperial Tool User], two highly suspicious individuals, into a carefully prepared cage, Goziqi finally walked into Fang Yi's "cell".

Sensing the arrival of the intelligence chief from afar, Zhu Tian stopped talking and walked out of the "cell" pretending to be unfamiliar with Fang Yi.

Fang Yi looked at the [Tiger Roaring Golden Bell·Enhanced (Incomplete)] on his panel and put away the joy that was originally on his face, indicating that he was not familiar with Zhu Tian.

Fang Yi looked at the intelligence chief and knew that his biggest challenge was coming.

Although [Favored by the Evil] had already begun to indicate that he had improved the other party's friendliness, the [Minister's] trusted right-hand man was obviously not affected by personal emotions.

He sat directly opposite Fang Yi and began to ask murderous questions.
-
Although Fang Yi saw that this former head of the imperial assassination force and intelligence chief of the [Minister's Camp] did not look very good,

The whole person seemed less intimidating than Zhu Tian, ​​but Fang Yi did not let his guard down.

Gozizi will be the last hurdle before he meets the [Minister]. No matter what, he needs to be cautious with this intellectual enemy.

As expected, the questions asked by the other party at the beginning were very aggressive.

“Zhu Tian should have explained the ‘rules’ to you, so I won’t repeat them.

"I am only asking questions that are within my responsibility. How did you meet the Hyena and obtain this ruby ​​ring from him?

"Under what circumstances did he entrust this ring to you?"

Fang Yi answered without hesitation.

"I was in a tavern in the south of the empire, destitute and destitute, when a fateful rainstorm descended from the sky and I met this spy.

“The other party paid the overdue rent for me.”

After listening to Fang Yi's description of the spy's appearance and personality, as well as his vivid description of the "death battle" between him and Disma, he also showed the [Minister] [Prometheus].

Gozizi seemed to believe what Fang Yi said, his expression began to relax, and he started chatting with Fang Yi.

It seemed that this scene was about to end the interview with the [Minister].

When Fang Yi made a 'relaxed' gesture with his body, Goziqi pretended to casually ask Fang Yi a question full of murderous intent.

"Did 'Hyena' give you a self-enhancing drug?

"Have you had any fever or felt any dependence on the drug?"
-
Fang Yi looked into Gozizi's eyes and didn't speak immediately.

Goziqi didn't say anything either. His pale face stared at Fang Yi, as if he was reading Fang Yi's micro-expressions to judge whether Fang Yi was lying.

Just when the atmosphere between the two became extremely tense, Fang Yi generously took out the addictive drug that "Hyena" gave him.

With the other party looking puzzled, he showed the few remaining medicines to Gozizi.

After the spy came closer and confirmed with his hands and nose that it was the addictive drug, Fang Yi took out some of the drug and swallowed it directly in the other party's surprised eyes.

After making a swallowing motion and showing his empty mouth to the other party, Fang Yi finally gave his answer.

“Yes, Mr. Hyena gave me the drug and I took it.

"Of course, I now know that this is an addictive drug that may not have an antidote, and is simply developed to control other people's addiction.

"However, I believe I am valuable enough for you to find a way to remove the toxins from this addictive drug."

Fang Yi decided to take a gamble. He wanted to take this opportunity to show his "handle" and let the [Minister] think that he had mastered his weakness, and then be able to control himself through the progress of drug research and development.

After Esdeath escaped from his control, only by doing this could he quickly gain the trust of the Minister, and the other party would be willing to invest in him.

Goziqi looked at Fang Yi and confirmed that the other party had indeed taken the addictive drug. It only took less than a few seconds for the expression on his face to change from suspicion, surprise to admiration.

He stretched out his hand and spoke to Fang Yi seriously.

"I was right. You must be the kind of person the [Minister] desires.

“I have a feeling that you will become a big shot around the [Minister].

"Within three days, the [Minister] will see you."

Fang Yi, who had received Gozzi's promise, smiled as he listened to the notification tone: "Due to the poison resistance brought by the trait [Demon Slayer] and the item [Oberg Resistance Drug], and the effect of the item [Khoucho Shinobu's Antidote], you are immune to the effects of unknown poisons."

He shook Gozizi's hand and responded, "I just believe that the [Minister] will not treat meritorious officials unfairly."

At this time, it was the afternoon of the third day since Fang Yi entered the mission world.

He has initially gained the trust of the [Minister Camp] and is about to meet with the [Minister].
