Saving the World in an Apocalypse-Style Text Game-Chapter 650 - 326: Frontier Prison, Warden_3

"[Proceed as planned, start by eliminating as many guards on the first floor as possible. However, the Warden’s power is too overwhelming, he is not an opponent you should engage directly. You must rely on your wit to succeed.]

[Fortunately, you possess an unusually ’perverse’ power of mimicry. You’ll hold off the Warden while he will make his way to the prison cell. After he parasitizes the War General, he’ll return to you right away!]

[Once he possesses a vessel as strong as the War General, he will stand a better chance of defeating the much more formidable Warden with your help...]

[This is just a preliminary plan. If you can’t handle the Warden, don’t worry about him, just focus on saving yourself. He’ll find a way to survive...]

[Do you have any doubts about the battle plan proposed by Jinmu?]

[You look into Jinmu’s eyes, full of wisdom, and find yourself nodding, accepting his plan.]

[You follow Jinmu through the main entrance into the prison hall...]

[The hall is devoid of wardens, connected to three gloomy corridors on the left, center, and right.]

[Jinmu, without hesitation, steps into the left corridor and moves forward...]

[The corridor is rather narrow, barely wide enough for two people to pass side by side. On either side of the corridor are individual quarters housing the resting and sleeping guards.]

[Around the bend ahead in the corridor, faint flickers of light can be seen, accompanied by rhythmic footsteps. It sounds like there are at least four or five people.]

[Jinmu gestures you to enter the rooms and take out the sleeping guards, and he will deal with the patrolling guards ahead...]

Jinmu is indeed quite powerful, effortlessly taking out several guards at once, leaving Lin Xun’s newly matured batch of ’Guardian’ chives untouched.

Lin Xun’s task is even easier, all he needs to do is sneak into the rooms and handle the guards who are sleeping like logs.

It’s worth mentioning that although he cannot gain experience points from the monsters killed by Jinmu, he can pick up the items and spirits dropped by them.

The experience points given by common creatures are so low that they’re almost negligible, and he doesn’t particularly care about it. But he does pay attention to the drop rate from killing these creatures.

He wonders if it’s because he’s teamed up with Jinmu that the monsters killed by him still benefit from the "Coronet of the Star Lord" and have a very gratifying drop rate.

The efficiency of the two assassins working together is extremely high, and in no time at all, they have cleared out the guards in the left and right corridors and moved on to the central corridor...

It’s only after they have cleared out all the creatures in the central corridor that they finally encounter a challenge.]

[...]

The central corridor is unusually wide compared to the left and right corridors, wide enough to fit a ’Transport Beetle,’ or drive a large carriage through.]

[At the end of the corridor is a large room, the dense door almost as wide and high as the corridor itself, creates oppressive and suffocating feeling...]

[On the corridor floor, not far from the large room, is a giant gate made of metal plates. From beneath it come endless wails of agony.]

[Jinmu leans over and whispers in your ear that the metal gate leads to the underground imprisonment area, which houses even more elite guards.]

[However, that’s not the deadliest part. These guards, in his opinion, would merely require a light thrust to deal with.]

[The real danger is that if one attempts to open the imprisonment area gate without proper authorization, the Warden at the end of the corridor will be alerted and launch a frenzied attack on the intruder.]

[This is what caused the failure of his plan when he sneaked into the prison previously.]

[Jinmu looks at you with unprecedented seriousness, his gaze fixed on your eyes as he asks solemnly...]

[Are you ready to draw out the Warden?]

The boss in front of him is just a preliminary level boss. Even in the hell-difficulty level, Lin Xun is confident he can beat it.

Teaming up with Jinmu is merely to cultivate a powerful ally.

"You just focus on the minor boss. Leave the big boss to me."

He decisively presses ’Yes’.
