The Black Prison is a prison used by the Wizards Alliance to imprison captured monsters.
Although most monsters will be killed by wizards during the hunting process, there are always some monsters that survive for one reason or another, such as special abilities, special blood, special information they know, or simply just
Because fate is great, etc.
All these living monsters will be imprisoned by wizards in the dark prison.
Even if some wizards' magic experiments involve the use of living demons, they can only use the fully enclosed laboratories set up separately in the Black Prison. According to the relevant management regulations of First University's experimental safety, any living demons are prohibited from appearing in the Black Prison.
Laboratory outside the school - this is why when a wild monster appeared in the school, it triggered a red alert, which eventually led to a series of punishments and personnel changes.
But a black jail is not a nursing home.
The demons who enter the Black Prison cannot wait until the day they die. And the demons captured from the outside and brought into the prison continue to flow day after day. This makes the Black Prison accumulate a huge number of demon corpses.
Some corpses have unique blood lines or are in good condition, and can be recycled by wizards. There are also many corpses that have extremely low recycling value due to factors such as fragmentation, condition, and tastelessness.
"...That ancient tree is the final plan used by the Black Prison to recover the body of the demon." The captain of the Mist looked over the Banshee's shoulder and looked out the window, looking at the endless sea, and his tone became deeper and deeper: "Every time
After hundreds of years, when the tree has had enough to eat and drink, it will bloom and bear a few fruits. This kind of fruit is not of great use to wizards, but it is of great use to demons, especially high-level demons.
Said, but there is a fatal temptation..."
Hearing this, Nikita couldn't help but hold her breath.
This was not the first time she had heard of the ancient tree mentioned by the captain.
In the long history of Daiichi University, countless fantastic and fascinating rumors have been passed down orally among generations of students. The blackwood is just one of them - the blackwood is the black prison plant rumored by the students.
The name of the ancient tree.
It is said that the black wood is extremely old. Sixty years is spring, sixty years is autumn, and more than two hundred years make one year old before it can grow a ring of growth rings. The black prison is built on the root system of this ancient tree.
within the range.
It is said that the black yellow tree is specially designed to eat monsters, and it is not afraid of being raw or cold. Whether it is a lich, a sea monster, or other strange species, as long as it belongs to the monster, it is the food of that ancient tree.
It is said that the blackwood will bloom and bear fruit once every 'year'. Like an epiphyllum, the time interval between the flowering and fruiting of the blackwood is very short - of course, this 'extremely short' is for the blackwood.
Calculated by time. For wizards, the interval between the flowering and fruiting of this ancient tree ranges from a few months to half a year.
It is said that the fruit of Xuanhuangmu can help high-level demons advance.
Thinking of this, the banshee's eyes gradually brightened.
The captain of the Mist lowered his eyelids and raised the corners of his mouth slightly. The Banshee's reaction was not beyond his expectation. For the monsters, promoting the evolution of their bloodline and following the footsteps of their true ancestors is an instinct engraved deep in their bloodline.
.
"Initially, we just planned to gather some like-minded allies, break out of the dark prison, and grab a few fruits from the ancient tree." The captain of the Mist continued: "In this, timing is very, very critical. If an immortal
The guy is still in the school, so our plan must be reported to the Siren King before it can be realized."
"Fortunately, the old man went out... So, the next step is to know when the ancient tree will bear fruit, which is very important."
Having said this, the captain of the Mist stopped again.
Nikita was stunned, and the hair on her back suddenly exploded - she suddenly realized a terrible situation, that is, the captain needed an insider in the Black Prison, so he explained so much to her. What place is the Black Prison?
, she knew very well. The young banshee did not think she could survive in such a terrifying place.
But the next words from the captain of the Mist made her feel at ease again.
"You are not the best choice for internal response," the captain twitched his lips and said, "This can be seen from the beginning of the special plane plan to enter the school."
Nikita swallowed quietly, and her heart that had been beating wildly calmed down a little.
"We, the Four Sea Demon Kings, alone are not enough to break the Black Prison. But if we tell those demon kings about this, the final distribution plan of the consequences will be distressing... At this time, a message came from the Dark Council.
"
"They will send manpower to help us break down First University's peripheral defense."
"The condition is that boy."
The banshee took a gentle breath and looked back at the newspaper she was holding in her hand. In the photo, the young face looked a little restrained and nervous under the spotlight. She looked plain and unimpressive.
Why does the Dark Council want that boy?
The captain of the Mist offered no further explanation.
Instead, he explained to the Banshee the purpose of saying these words: "I tell you these things because you are an excellent key."
Key? Nikita thought about this word in his heart, feeling that he had vaguely grasped something.
"You always bring me some new surprises... just like a key, opening doors one after another that hide treasures." The captain of the Mist added calmly: "That ancient tree, this boy
...Although everything seems to have nothing to do with you, your figure will always appear looming in it."
"In divination, this is called 'correlation effect', or it can also be called 'luck'."
"If you want to maximize the effect of the correlation effect, the best solution is to let the correlation person, that is, you, constantly make new choices."
"Now, I will give you a new choice."
"Disembark as a senior crew member of the Mist. Whether you want to go to the New World, the Silent Forest, or the Dark Prison, we will fulfill your wishes...or continue to be a cook and stay below the deck of the Mist.
"
The logic of the Captain of the Mist seems a bit strange, but in Nikita's view, it is very easy to understand - having dealt with mysticism for many years, wizards or demons will always have enough respect for certain mysterious and mysterious connections.
The captain's idea is nothing more than to use the banshee's choice to provide new parameters for their planned divination work.
"I choose to stay on the ship." Nikita hesitated for a long time, then gritted his teeth and expressed his choice.
Although she really, really wants to go ashore, she also knows how capable she is now.
The outside world is too dangerous, so I can be more stable by being a cook on a ship.
