Baron Cullen

Chapter 64 The Tragic Scene on the Ruins

The lowest level of the prison was in complete disarray.

Kevin ignored the several pitiful corpses on the ground and strode out.

He climbed the stairs, killing all the ordinary guards he encountered!

Wherever I went, severed limbs and broken bodies were everywhere, and blood stained the shattered walls and the ground.

Amidst piercing screams and the sounds of flesh being torn apart, the corridors and staircases leading to the ground transformed into a bloody hell that was impossible to look at!

Kevin walked up step by step, his body covered in blood.

He deliberately chose the most cruel and bloody way to escape the encirclement, his purpose being to vent the anger that had been building up in his heart and to take revenge on the arrogant city lord Drano!

He wanted to show them what the consequences would be if they dared to detain him, Kevin Connor!

The explosion occurred on the west side of the prison.

At this moment, not only was a huge gap blasted open in the west wall, but a not-too-distant wall that was several meters high and one or two meters thick was also blasted open with a considerable gap!

The surrounding area was engulfed in raging flames, the dazzling light seemingly tearing apart the night sky of the City of Extinction.

The ground was covered with broken stones and bricks, and dust filled the air.

Kevin slaughtered his way back to the surface, practically stepping over the corpses of prison guards.

He wanted to continue venting his anger, but the surging power within him began to show signs of disorder.

Clearly, the pill's effectiveness was about to run out.

As Kevin stepped out of the gap in the prison wall, he looked back.

A corner of the prison engulfed in flames, littered with corpses and blood.

As if admiring his most prized work, a ferocious yet satisfied smile appeared on his face.

"You're next, Karen Waller!"

Everything I've suffered is thanks to you. I'll make you wish you were dead!

Kevin looked into the distance, his eyes filled with ruthlessness and bloodlust.

After saying that, he leaped out of the gap and disappeared completely into the deep night.

...

The next morning.

As Karen came out of the bathroom, she ran into the old butler, Phelps.

He was somewhat dazed, as if the scene seemed familiar.

Ever since the Knights took him away from his doorstep, he had been wanting to find some time to have a good talk with the old butler in front of him.

But right now is clearly not the right time to talk about this.

At this moment, the old butler, Phelps, spoke up: "Your Excellency, Mr. Lamont Kenny, the vice-commander of the warband, has sent a message."

"You need to go to the prison immediately after you finish breakfast."

prison?

Karen was startled.

Sending him to prison so early in the morning, considering the information I got from Lamoor yesterday, could it be that Kevin Connor really ran away?

He gave a brief response, then immediately turned around and went into the bedroom to change into a simple set of aristocratic clothes, before rushing downstairs and leaving.

After arriving near the prison.

As soon as Karen got out of the car, she saw that the area near the west wall of the prison had been reduced to ruins, and a huge gap had been blown into the wall not far away.

Although the flames have been extinguished, thick smoke is still rising near the explosion site, resembling the ruins after a disaster.

The ruins inside the walls were littered with the bodies of prison guards that had been cleared out, and the surrounding area was covered with blackened bloodstains from the fire.

Although the city lord's guards were on site maintaining order, the area outside the prison was still somewhat chaotic due to the large number of victims' relatives gathered there.

The family members knelt on the ground, watching helplessly as one gruesome death after another was carried out, their hoarse and pitiful cries echoing around the prison.

Karen suppressed the shock she felt as she watched this scene unfold.

He never imagined that Kevin Connor would not only escape from the heavily guarded prison, but also kill so many innocent people like the most evil demon.

He scanned the area and finally found Lamont, who was leading his chapter members to assist the guards in the cleanup work, near the west wall of the prison.

Meanwhile, Lord Drano and Bishop Albert stood in the open space inside the walls.

The two men looked at the mountain of corpses piled up not far away, their faces extremely grim.

A guard who survived patrolling the prison perimeter last night, still shaken, reported the situation to the two men:

"I...I heard the explosion coming from outside while I was on patrol last night!" His eyes widened as he tried to keep his voice from trembling. "And then...and then Kevin Connor...he somehow managed to come straight up from underground!"

He...he's like a madman, killing anyone he sees! He killed all the brothers who tried to stop him!

The guard looked at the corpses that had already been cleared away, his eyes filled with grief and indignation.

After hearing the report, everyone present remained silent, their faces extremely grim.

Everyone knew that if Kevin Connor, a fourth-tier warrior, truly wanted to escape once he regained his strength, no one could stop him.

But that guy didn't do that.

The traces and bloodstains from the bottom up show that the guy was slowly making his way up.

Kill all those who stand in his way in the most brutal way!

They would even rush over and tear apart guards who weren't being stopped from afar!

Such cruel and bloody methods were undoubtedly intended to vent anger and to severely provoke Draenor, the city lord.

At that moment, Draenor stood still, his face ashen as he stared at the corpse on the ground.

He said coldly, "That damn Kevin Connor! Don't let me find him, or I'll make him regret ever being born!"

Although Bishop Albert appeared relatively calm, his right hand, which was tightly gripping the scepter, revealed that he was also suppressing his anger.

He spoke slowly, his tone tinged with sorrow: "Lord City Lord, leave the matter here to me. I will lead the believers to properly dispose of the bodies of these heroes and comfort their poor families."

For the safety of the city and its people, you need to organize a team to thoroughly investigate this matter as soon as possible and catch that monster Kevin Connor.

He has utterly degenerated into an evil being no different from a heretic!

Delano nodded, frowning, and said, "That's inevitable, but there are two things we need to clarify now."

The first question is who caused the explosion, since the outer wall was up to a meter thick, which would have been impossible with ordinary means.

The second point is that Kevin Connor was wearing shackles on his wrists and ankles when he was imprisoned, which were designed to suppress supernatural elements.

But according to the guards' report and the situation at the scene, that damned guy somehow regained his strength, which is why no one could stop him!

Bishop Albert, who was standing nearby, understood the implication in his words. After careful analysis, he said, "There is someone who is very familiar with the situation in the city helping him, and this person holds a high position in the city."

"Your Excellency, what do you think…" Delano looked at Albert, "that person could be Bastian Jim?"

"That's certainly possible."

Bishop Albert did not deny it.

In fact, ever since he received all the evidence of Bastian’s crimes that the Chapter had found in that mansion, he had been secretly investigating everything the latter had done in Breathless City over the past few years.

It is now certain that the priest under his command has indeed completely turned his back on the God of Light and fallen into a complete heretic.

In the current situation, Bastian does indeed meet those two conditions.

"If that's the case, why doesn't Your Excellency just arrest him?"
