Chapter 747: Chapter 737 Cowardice Prison

The night was cool as water, and the whistling cold breeze blew up his pant legs, making Wen Wen feel chillingly cold.

Today, Wen Wen, like always, only wore a coat.

Although it wasn’t a Containment Officer uniform, Wen Wen had grown accustomed not to wear underwear, and given the formidable strength of a superpower user’s physique, a mere cold wind had no effect on him,

At most, it just made him feel a bit more at liberty.

At this moment, he had used the powers of the Faceless Demon to change his appearance, so even those who were familiar with Wen Wen couldn’t recognize him.

A pitch-black creature, flipping its limbs, was ceaselessly crawling on walls and rooftops, tracking Wen Wen.

This city hadn’t seen living humans for a long time, and although there was no longer any worry of being discovered by humans, this also meant a lack of food sources.

So when it finally saw the living creature that was Wen Wen, it naturally followed, to see if it could serve him up for dinner.

It enjoyed eating humans, but disliked being as savage as other monsters; it required a sense of ritual.

Just as humans would dine on other creatures at high-end restaurants, it would do the same with humans.

It saw no difference between humans and other creatures, so it didn’t think there was anything wrong with what it was doing.

After following for a few minutes, it grew impatient and leaped high, aiming a grab at the back of Wen Wen’s neck.

This hunting method had been performed many times; it could guarantee knocking out an ordinary person with one hit without killing them.

Prey tasted better alive.

But its claws hadn’t yet touched Wen Wen’s neck when they were struck by a pitch-black wing, sending the entire creature flying into a nearby wall, leaving half its body a mangled mess.

Yet its life force was tenacious; the blow hadn’t killed it instantly. It looked at the figure in bewilderment – where did those pitch-black wings come from?

Wen Wen turned around, walked up to the creature, his pitch-black eyes flashing with an evil light that made the small monster’s scalp tingle.

The black creature’s remaining eye bulged; it had been mistaken before. These wings, this ominous aura, they weren’t human at all...

It was a Fallen Angel!

"The wings of a Fallen Angel are way more effective than those of a genuine Angel, though it’s inconvenient to use just one wing, and I might have used too much force. Otherwise, you could have survived longer to display whatever skills you had."

The little monster struggled to speak: "I still... can... be saved..."

"Hmm, this black skin seems to have some tricks up its sleeve, could be used to make underwear."

That was the last thing the small creature heard, for the next moment the Fallen Angel twisted its head off.

While being tracked by this creature, Wen Wen had sensed its intense hunger; a monster exuding such strong appetite likely had humans as its main diet, hence there was no remorse in killing it.

Now, Wen Wen was only interested in some very special abilities. The Sanctuary imprisoned so many monsters that their abilities were even hard for Wen Wen to keep track of.

Allowing the monster to track him was simply a test of the Fallen Angel Physique.

Indeed, Wen Wen was now using the Fallen Angel Physique and had even initiated Critical State, sprouting wings on his back and perfectly mimicking the aura of an Evil Light Angel.

He had asked the Central Administrator of the Sanctuary to test it out, and they said that if they hadn’t known Wen Wen’s identity in advance, even Catastrophe-Level Experts would have had a hard time recognizing him.

The abilities of an Evil Light Angel were not much different from those of an Angel of Universal Light, except that the powerful regeneration ability was gone, replaced by twice the strength in physical capabilities.

Moreover, the Holy Light that could cause extensive damage to evil forces, emitted by an Angel of Universal Light, turned into Evil Light that could inflict vast damage upon Creatures of Light.

But this enhancement in abilities was actually minuscule for Wen Wen; all he wanted was the identity of a Fallen Angel.

Tonight, he intended to use this identity to accomplish a great deed.

If he failed, he would likely be making a light-speed entry into the Sanctuary and then leaving Menxia Province to ensure his safety.

But if he succeeded... he could obtain what he desired in this Catastrophe-level battle!

Currently, Wen Wen was in the southwestern corner of Xihong City, near a prison.

This prison was named Cowardice Prison.

The idea behind the name was to create a prison that would intimidate criminals, but it inadvertently became popular due to its resemblance to the name of a certain vegetable.

To this, Wen Wen thought: Cowardice Prison was even more fitting for Xihong City!

All of the ordinary people in Xihong City had been forcibly relocated by the Hunter Association, which naturally included the inmates in the prison. The reason Wen Wen was here was because the prison now contained some special things.

Some things that he had personally sent to prison before.

They were blood parts from the Pervasive Angel Maya Mi!

Wen Wen had come in disguise, certainly not to bolster the prison’s defense forces.

His goal was a jailbreak!

Using the identity of a Fallen Angel, Wen Wen planned to extract two or three blood parts from the jail and then release these stolen blood parts in a location where Maya Mi might appear!

He wanted to bet that Maya Mi wouldn’t kill him upon seeing him!

If Maya Mi harbored any intent to kill, Wen Wen would detonate the Monkey Jaw Thunder without a moment’s hesitation and then flee to the Sanctuary, escaping from Menxia Province never to meddle in these affairs again.

But if Maya Mi, seeing a fellow Fallen Angel in Wen Wen, bore no malice and even felt a trace of fondness due to Wen Wen’s help...

Then Wen Wen could potentially negotiate with Maya Mi!

Although the likelihood of success was not high, Wen Wen was willing to take a gamble on this possibility.

Maya Mi’s influence was already significant; a mere two or three blood parts wouldn’t greatly enhance its power.

Moreover, when Wen Wen had collaborated with Gu Daoqing, he had gained thorough knowledge of the layout within Cowardice Prison, making it child’s play to retrieve the items.

Besides, Maya Mi would eventually want to become more complete. If it attempted this jailbreak on its own, it would likely result in a bloodbath. In contrast, Wen Wen’s stealthy theft would not lead to any casualties.

Following the layout of Cowardice Prison in his memory, Wen Wen effortlessly entered the prison. He had planned to drill a hole through the wall but paused upon discovering something on the wall before he started...

A substance that was extremely fine and barely noticeable...

"It’s spider silk!"

This was spider silk from the Demon Hunter Sifumo, that Ranger who had stolen the Great Detective title from Wen Wen. If it hadn’t been for their past collaboration, Wen Wen would not have detected the presence of the spider silk.

"How could that guy be here? This could be troublesome."

Wen Wen gently massaged his forehead. Sifumo’s strength, he surmised, was probably not on par with his own now.

However, with Sifumo’s capabilities, protecting a place meant that no one could enter silently and unnoticed.

"Should I just storm in? A forceful seizure would achieve the same end..."

At that moment, Wen Wen felt a chill at his neck.

Someone was blowing on the back of his neck...
