“They’re underground,”Wayne explained.

  “Basement?”Abel suddenly said, and then his face darkened.

  “Yes.”Wayne nodded. “Lord Abel, why don’t you wait here for a while. I’ll go get the soldiers.”


  “Let’s go together.”Abel shook his head and said. Then he signaled the soldier behind him to follow him and walked with Wayne to the entrance of the basement.

  If he stood at the stairway and looked down, he could only see some debris piled up by the wall.

  Abel walked down the stairs to the basement with some suspicion. When he looked around, the soldier of the monitoring station who appeared in his field of vision gave him a fright.

  “DAMN!”Abel shouted. “Why are they standing here?”


  “Someone needs to guard the door of the cell.”Wayne scratched his head and replied awkwardly, “I’m sorry, I forgot to tell you this news, Lord.”


  “It…… it doesn’t matter.”After listening to Wayne’s explanation, Abel heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Where is the cell?”


  “Open the door.”Wayne nodded slightly at Abel and ordered the soldier standing in the corner.

  “Yes.”The two GNOME soldier walked to the Western Wall and moved away the dusty bookcase. A turntable inlaid with crystals appeared in front of everyone.

  Wayne walked forward and stood behind the two soldier. When the turntable was turned, the stone door also opened with a rumble. Abel followed Wayne into the door. The road ahead was illuminated by orange lights. The space they were in was extremely wide. Even the slightest sound could be heard.

  “Bring the people from cells 1004 and 1003 here,”Wayne ordered the soldiers lined up on both sides of the road.

  “Yes,”the soldier replied.

  Although the room was well-lit, Abel could not see the soldier’s face clearly. When the soldier responded, he found that their voices were unusually old.

  “You built the cell in such a place, are you worried that someone will escape?”Abel watched the soldier leave and asked Wayne.

  “Yes.”Wayne invited Abel and the others to sit down on the chairs by the door and answered, “But not exactly.”


  “Huh? Tell me about it.”Abel raised his eyebrows and said.

  Wayne looked at Abel and explained, “This matter is not suitable for me to explain to you, Lord. I can only say that this prison is actually a private property of the GNOME race. It is only temporarily rented to the monitoring station.”


  “Okay.”Abel knew that Wayne had already revealed all the information he could tell him, so he tactfully stopped asking and changed the topic. He said, “Since this prison is under the control of the monitoring station, then in the past few days, Potts and the others have also been brought here.”


  “Yes.”Wayne’s gaze shifted to the direction where the soldier had left. He nodded and replied, “Not only Potts, but also the group of hooligans who had a conflict with the Lord’s soldier a few days ago. They were also sent here.”


  “I’m a little surprised that the monitoring station acted so quickly this time,”Abel said, puzzled.

  “The order to act…… was personally issued by Lord Gilbert.”Wayne hesitated for a moment and said, “It did not enter the monitoring station’s investigation procedure.”


  Hearing this, Abel turned his head and looked at the attendant from head to toe. His gaze became complicated.

  But at that moment, the soldier who had left earlier brought Caradia’s soldiers to Wayne and Abel.

  “Captain Abel!”The last few days in prison had not been easy. Every soldier looked ashen. Furthermore, before the soldier brought them here, he did not tell them what the purpose of this trip was. Therefore, the moment they saw Abel, almost all the soldiers were overjoyed and shouted.

  When Abel saw them, he also revealed a relaxed smile. He walked forward and asked with concern, “Are you all okay?”


  “We’re fine,”the soldier in prison uniform replied in unison.

  “Can you please bring the soldier’s own clothes over? This prison uniform doesn’t suit them very well,”Abel asked Wayne.

  “Alright.”Wayne nodded and walked to the side, giving some instructions to his soldier.

  “Lord Abel, we knew that King Kant would send you to rescue us,”a soldier said happily.

  “Yes.”Abel nodded slowly and said, “We have to go back the way we arrived on this island. No one can be left behind.”


  After hearing Abel’s words, most of the soldiers were moved.

  “Lord Abel, how’s the situation outside?”A soldier asked Abel while waiting.

  “Many things happened during the few days you were in prison. “However, we achieved good results,”Abel replied as he recalled. “Also, the nomads who clashed with you were punished by the surveillance bureau.”


  “We met those guys in the cell,”a soldier asked worriedly. “Captain Abel, they won’t be released after staying here for a few days, right?”


  “Probably not,”Abel said as he glanced at Wayne, who was standing by the wall.

  “The punishment for those people is to stay in this prison for three years. Most of the people who spoke for them in the prison have fallen. Don’t worry,”Wayne said.

  After hearing Wayne’s words, the soldier’s expressions changed. They weren’t exactly happy.

  “It’s just as the Lord said. A part of the threat on the island has been eliminated. The situation is developing in a good direction,”Abel continued and said to his subordinate soldiers.

  The soldier nodded and whispered to each other.

  After a while, the soldier’s uniforms were brought to the front of the group.

  After the soldier received their uniforms, he cheered one after another. At this moment, everyone felt the sense of freedom.

  “Let’s go.”After the soldiers who were imprisoned put on their armor, Abel gave the order to everyone.

  The group of about twenty people just now had increased to more than forty people. When they gathered at the entrance of the basement, they looked even more aggressive, which was slightly out of line with the surrounding environment.

  “Thank you,”Abel said to Wayne.

  “Okay, everyone, be careful.”Wayne stopped at the entrance of the basement. He waved at Abel and replied.

  After Abel and the others left, Wayne walked through the stone door again. The two GNOME soldier looked at each other, walked to the turntable, and turned it with great effort. The stone door was closed.
