Chapter 1269: Chapter 1269: Mutually Destructive
If not for prior knowledge, Devlin would have thought he’d mistakenly entered a luxurious hotel.
Completely different from the filthy, chaotic, and noisy environment outside.
The furthest inside were rooms similar to those in a five-star hotel.
Glimmering with gold.
The door was a solid wood door, forged with gilt gold.
Even the doorknob was gold.
"This is where the high-level prisoners stay, it’s different indeed."
Devlin patted the black leather glove and stood in front of the door, holding a box of hidden weapons.
"Careful!"
Before he could act, Granny Xihua kicked open the door!
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Two shots of darts rang out.
Almost at the instant Granny Xihua kicked the door, Devlin pounced forward.
Blocking in front of her!
Clang!
Facing the sudden assault, Granny Xihua instinctively swung out her staff!
The first dart was instantly swatted away.
But the second one struck Devlin in the back.
"Ugh..."
Devlin let out a muffled groan, stumbling forward.
"Seeking death!"
Granny Xihua roared furiously, and her golden staff flew out from her hands!
Swoosh!
Two armed guards deep inside were directly knocked away.
Their ribcages shattered, they died instantly.
"Are you alright?"
Granny Xihua hurriedly embraced Devlin, looking somewhat panicked for a rare time.
If someone hadn’t blocked the dart for her, she would certainly have been injured.
"How many times have I reminded you to use your brain when you do things!"
Devlin pushed Granny Xihua away and pointed at his head, "What’s the use of brute strength alone?"
He turned around, stepping over the corpses of the guards, and walked into the deepest part of the prison.
"Phew!"
Granny Xihua saw the steel vest revealed behind Devlin and finally took a deep breath.
That was the highest-end technology from Thunderpeak Hall; not to mention a dart, even a bomb couldn’t damage it.
But in her heart, Granny Xihua still felt somewhat moved.
"Who is it!"
In the prison, the Left Minister was sitting beside a table reading a book.
Hearing the sound of the darts, he was already a bit nervous.
Because he was of military background, the Right Minister seemed very calm.
"Let me introduce myself."
Devlin stood in the passageway between the two cells and coldly said, "I am Devlin from Bead Pulse."
"Bead Pulse?"
The Left Minister sprang to the side of the cell, shouting through the toughened glass, "I am from Bead Pulse! Save me!"
"Shameless!"
The Right Minister also stood up, reprimanding, "The King esteems you so highly, yet you betray his trust! Left Minister, this is The North Sea Royal Court, even if you escape from prison, do you think you can get out?"
After speaking, he looked coldly at Devlin, "Mr. Devlin, you’ve got some nerve, daring to break the prison in The North Sea Palace? Even Bead Pulse doesn’t have the authority to meddle in the affairs of The North Sea!"
"Really?"
Devlin took out a crystal blue-tooth key, shook it in his hand, "Today, I’ll be meddling and taking charge!"
Ding!
The moment the Bluetooth key touched the cell, the door of the Left Minister’s prison instantly opened.
The cell made of toughened glass, extremely sturdy!
It had several breathing holes and a window for serving meals.
But inside, there were no differences from a normal room.
A double bed, a crystal dining table, and even a TV and computer.
Aside from restricted freedom, it was no different from enjoying life.
"Mr. Devlin, your arrival couldn’t have been more timely!"
The Left Minister exited the prison, excitedly shaking Devlin’s hand, "For some reason, my undercover identity in The North Sea was exposed, and I almost got killed by him!"
After saying this, he looked at the Right Minister with anger: "Tell me, how did you find out!"
"I have nothing to tell you!"
The Right Minister’s face was as calm as still water.
"I can’t believe that someone I’ve been with day and night for so many years turned out to be a traitor!"
The Right Minister turned his head aside and spat on the ground: "Pah!"
"Facing death, you still dare to talk tough?"
The Left Minister narrowed his eyes, murderous intent suddenly surfacing!
At that moment, Devlin very appropriately handed over a dart.
Then, he turned around and left with Granny Xihua.
"Reason."
Granny Xihua closed the wooden door and asked out loud.
"I belong to Sealing Pulse!" Devlin took out a cigarette from his breast pocket and put it in his mouth: "If you want to report to Bead, I won’t stop you. After all, you are Bead Pulse."
"You know I won’t tell Bead," Granny Xihua pinched her nose, apparently not very fond of the pungent smell of cigarettes.
"Just for blocking that dart for me just now, I can pretend I don’t know about this. But, I must know the reason."
Granny Xihua was very adamant.
"Reason?"
Devlin sighed, leaning against the prison wall: "There is no reason. I want to restore Sealing Pulse, to complete the unfinished business of the past. After enduring humiliation for hundreds of years, there must be some achievement. Otherwise, why do you think I’m still alive?"
"You betray Bead, it will be hard to end well," Granny Xihua warned: "Bead has been planning for a long time, with even greater ambitions."
"I plotted before she did."
Devlin took a drag on his cigarette, slowly exhaling the smoke.
No one knew what was really going on under the mask on his face.
"Trust me, I can do things that they have never done. Because, I am Devlin!"
...
Inside the prison.
The Left Minister, holding a gun, aimed through the window at the Right Minister.
In such a cramped environment, there was nowhere for the Right Minister to dodge.
Moreover, the Right Minister had no intention of dodging.
"Speak! How did you find out the secret of my bracelet!"
The Left Minister asked fiercely.
"You can kill me, but you won’t get any information from me."
The Right Minister hummed disdainfully, with a sneer on his face: "Traitor!"
Whiz!
The sound of the dart.
The dart penetrated the Right Minister’s shoulder and struck the wall behind him.
The Right Minister’s body stiffened, making no sound.
"Continue."
He indifferently poured a cup of tea, full of contempt in his tone: "Coward, if it were usual times, I would have torn you apart with my hands."
After speaking, the Right Minister picked up the teacup.
Whiz!
Another dart.
The dart pierced his arm, splattering blood on the wall.
And the teacup, too, fell on the table.
The tea mixed with fresh blood, wetting the Right Minister’s clothes.
"Talk, or not."
The Left Minister gritted his teeth fiercely and spoke.
He had endured humiliation for so many years, never showing a single flaw.
But, it just so happened that at such a time, on the eve of the restoration of The North Sea, he was exposed!
Years of operation, gone in an instant!
"We’ve worked together for so many years, you ought to know my temperament." The Right Minister turned around, slowly stood up, and walked to the window.
With his unharmed hand, he held the gun to his chest.
"There’s nothing you can get out of me on matters I choose not to discuss," he said, staring defiantly into the Left Minister’s eyes: "Go ahead, throw your darts. Don’t waste time, I’ll be waiting for you below. Believe me, soon, we can fight in hell. Then, I’ll make sure you lose even the qualification to be reincarnated!"
Whiz! 𝖓𝔬𝖛𝔭𝔲𝖇.𝔠𝔬𝖒
The sound of the dart.
The Right Minister staggered backward several steps, kneeling on one knee on the ground.
His face turned pale, his body trembling violently!
"Long live The North Sea!"
Thud.
Exerting all his strength to shout out his last words, the Right Minister lay on the ground, eyes wide open in death.
Blood, spilled all over the floor.
And the camera in the innermost part of the prison recorded everything.
"Hmph!"
The Left Minister, clenching his teeth, strode away.
"Shall we talk?"
As he just left the prison gate, Devlin stretched out a hand and stopped the Left Minister.
