Prisoner's Center, arena.
The bald man and the others hadn't returned for a long time, causing the vigilant Hei Xiang to feel a sense of crisis. He decisively ordered the prisoners to give up on toying with the surviving contestants and immediately prepared to leave the prisoner's center with him.
His goal was to steal a military airship and then leave this godforsaken place.
In order to not expose his group to the military, he chose to stay in the prisoner's center and quietly wait for the contestants to come.
Yes, wait for the contestants.
Hei Xiang had a complete plan from starting the riot to stealing the airship. Of course, it wasn't because he could predict the future or had extraordinary means. Instead, someone had secretly given him a helping hand. The other party had clearly pointed out that the first batch to come would be contestants and not people from the military.
This was his only chance to leave Black Stone Prisoner Town 0123.
Kill those competitors, snatch their airships, and swagger away.
Once the military's troops arrived, these prisoners would not be able to contend against them.
He had originally wanted to play for a while longer, but these two escaped contestants had turned out to be unforeseen events. Looking at it now, there was a high chance that the bald man had fallen in their hands.
Hei Xiang, who had stayed here for a long time, was incomparably eager to leave. He absolutely could not let some unforeseen factors delay the important matters. Thus, he made a prompt decision and ordered everyone to rush out with him.
Of course, there were also some prisoners who lost their will to play and couldn't leave this place. Hei Xiang didn't care whether they lived or died. Most of the people here were just his cannon fodder in the end. An extremely rare few might be recommended to the organization after he escaped with his life.
Hei Xiang pulled out a black card from his clothes. A knight with lightning speed brandished his sword and bravely charged forward. The wind blew his clothes and the entire scene was brimming with an uplifting power.
This small Arcana card was the key to why the other party was willing to help him. After leaving this place, he, the knight of the sword department, would return to the tarot cards. It just so happened that the organization was plotting something big, so he could use this opportunity to regain the trust of those important people.
Hei Xiang strode out of the prisoner's center. He had already pried out the exact location of the airship from Black's mouth. There were a total of six small airships, not bad at all.
Passing through the layers of bungalows, the atmosphere here disgusted him. The Black Stone Prisoners' status was even lower than the lowest of slaves. Here, they could only be enslaved by the workers.
This was also the reason why all the female prisoners had died.
Therefore, after the successful uprising, the prisoners' revenge on the workers was also very scary, and these human flags were one of them.
As for him, he turned those staff members into corpses for him to use.
Universal: Corpse. This was a simplified version of Shadow Magic. It was also one of the rarest types of common magic. Magic Resonance Stones were also required to learn it.
Generally, general magic was not considered as a Magic Apprentice because most general magic did not require a Magic Resonance Stone to learn, so its power was limited. Generally, it was skill-based and did not help much in casting.
However, this one was different. It could turn living people into corpses and enslave them.
He could control his body at will, ignoring his joints and flesh. He could explode with terrifying attacks and perform actions that ordinary people could not do.
In fact, the corpse that Li Xiang met at the Black City Station was made by him.
It was also because of this ability that Hei Xiang was able to maintain his position as a Sword Knight. Even when he was sent to Blackstone Prisoner Town, he was not replaced by anyone.
Six neatly arranged airships were arranged in order. The prisoners immediately cheered when they saw the airships and scrambled to get on.
People would go crazy if they stayed in this damned place for too long. Even though it was now made into a paradise for them to vent, it was nothing compared to the outside world.
They wanted to go out, leave, and return to the seven continents.
Hei Xiang secretly cursed them for being idiots but did not stop them.
These prisoners were still mud that could not support a wall. When they were in the prisoner center and facing enemies, they would still want to use his strength to express their submission. Once they left that state and had the chance to leave, they lost their previous cohesion and were like a plate of loose sand.
He was very disappointed, but he also used this to distinguish a portion of the useful people. They gathered around him. Although they also wanted to go up, they resisted the impulse when they saw that he did not move.
Only a useful dog knew how to restrain himself.
Nothing unusual happened.
Hei Xiang frowned and hesitated. Seeing that their airships were ready to take off, he hurriedly led the others to the last airship with ten engravings.
Could it be that he was thinking too much? Were these two fleeing fellows already scared out of their wits?
But the baldy's death meant that things weren't so simple.
After boarding the airship, he abandoned these distracting thoughts for the time being. Even he was quite excited because the long-awaited freedom was about to come true.
It was at this time that the muffled sound of gunfire tore through their cheers.
Hei Xiang subconsciously sensed a fatal danger. He didn't even turn back as he reached out to pull two prisoners in front of him. Their heads were blasted apart by the pillar of air, and the two corpses flew backward, leaving only the bloody halves in his hands.
Alarm bells rang wildly.
What followed was a series of explosions. The nearby airships shot out countless giant flaming snakes and fell down after swaying for a while.
Hei Xiang's ears were filled with the prisoners' mournful cries, but he was staring fixedly at the shadow who had ambushed him.
The airwaves caused by the explosions caused the entire airship to sway continuously, but the prisoners heading toward the pilot room were strangely quiet. Only their airship didn't explode and was only affected for a while.
This meant that the ambusher was on the same airship and might very well be the fleeing contestant.
There was no such information in that person's intelligence. This was a variable.
And what he hated the most was variables.
"Come out. Normal Origin Guns probably won't be able to hurt me. If you want to win, you'll have to fight me in close combat," Hei Xiang said coldly. He wasn't speaking without thinking. He had the physique of a Level-3 Magician's Apprentice, and his speed and strength weren't something a normal person could compare to. Their gun attacks really would have a hard time hurting him.
Not to mention, the gun distribution here wasn't good either.
"That's what I was thinking." Li Xiang walked out of the pilot room and tossed out the corpse of the dead prisoner. Julie replaced him as the pilot.
He was lying in ambush on the tenth airship. No matter which one Hei Xiang chose, he would detonate the explosives on the other airships. Either he didn't come up, or he chose this one. Otherwise, he would die without a doubt.
He didn't mind Hei Xiang coming because Li Xiang wanted to fight him from the bottom of his heart.
Along the way, he had relied on battle to break through and become stronger. This belief wouldn't change. He wouldn't be afraid just because his opponent might kill him, so he would choose a safer method.
After all, when faced with a disaster in the future, he would often be at a disadvantage and have no choice.
"Good boy, you've got guts." Hei Xiang sneered a few times, shocked by Li Xiang's age. He looked less than 20 years old, and he was actually the culprit who hindered him. "You killed the bald guy too?"
"You mean the bald guy? Don't worry, you'll see him soon. " Li Xiang held a steel sword of unknown origin in one hand. He seemed to be taking a stroll, but the moment he approached, he exploded with extreme speed.
Black Elephant was once again shocked by the clear magic circuit of the four limbs that appeared on his bare arms.
He didn't want to be outdone and instantiated his own four-limb magic circuit.
What Hei Xiang successfully instantiated were the two magic circuits of his internal organs and limbs. Because he didn't have the qualifications of a player, he had dropped out of college in endless fighting after a random university. Later, he accidentally entered tarot cards, which made him realize that even if he didn't have the qualifications of a player, he could still be better than his peers.
And over the years, he had taken pleasure in killing young people with the qualifications of a player.
Seeing Li Xiang's age and talent, he wanted to kill him.
The two quickly clashed, and the sharp steel sword slashed Hei Xiang's arm, but it burst out with astonishing sparks. At their level of physical fitness, it was indeed difficult for ordinary cold weapons to hurt them.
