Chapter 460: Chapter 280 The Strongest Prison in History_2

Plus, every floor of the prison is equipped with numerous Octopus Soldiers, who patrol intensively every few minutes ... No wonder this place is known as the most difficult prison to escape from in history.

However, that explanation about the ’Magic-Addict Worm’ made Mu You think of the Mana Floating Dragon.

Both feed on pure Magic Power, but the Mana Floating Dragon is better, only out-of-control Floating Dragons are addicted to Magic Power. In contrast, this worm is directly called the Magic-Addict Worm, showing its addiction to Magic Power, which must be deeper than the Mana Floating Dragon’s.

Mu You glanced at the panel. Sure enough, his Game Character’s Magic Power had been drained to zero and could not recover - any Magic Power it regenerated was immediately Devoured.

However, the worm could only Devour ordinary Magic Power - it could not reach the Magic Power inside the Crystal of the Secret Technique.

With this in mind, Mu You clicked on the Crystal of the Secret Technique, slowly directing its Magic Power into his Game Character.

You like to suck? Here, taste some high-quality stuff!

[Natural Magic Power flows within you, and is continuously absorbed by the Magic-Addict Worm in the handcuffs.]

[The Magic-Addict Worm that has consumed Natural Magic Power, as if experiencing sheer bliss, goes into a dreamy state...]

[You suddenly cut off the flow of Natural Magic Power, you feel the Magic-Addict Worm becomes irritable, biting your wrist incessantly, desperately consuming, trying to absorb more Magic Power...]

[You once again circulate the Natural Magic Power in the Crystal, the Magic-Addict Worm instantly calms down, again in a state of bliss...]

...

Sure enough, creatures that feed on magic power can’t resist the power of pure Black Magic. After a few cycles, the worm shows signs of addiction, but its consumption of ordinary Magic Power indicate that it’s not addicted enough yet.

Increase the dose!

[You once again allow the flow of Natural Magic Power...]

Next, Mu You starts meditating on the spot, continuously supplying the Magic-Addict Worm with Magic Power from the Crystal. With six Mana Cards supporting, the crystal’s recovery speed is unimaginably fast, roughly keeping pace with the consumption.

After persisting for two hours, finally, Mu You sees the Magic Power bar on the panel slowly recovering.

After two hours of nourishment, this Magic-Addict Worm has finally had enough.

Now this critter is thoroughly addicted to Natural Magic power, having become a waste-worm that only consumes Black Magic and has lost all desire for ordinary Magic Power, allowing Mu You’s own Magic Power to recover rapidly, fully recovering in a matter of minutes.

With his Magic Power restored, dealing with what comes next should be easy.

However, Mu You is in no rush to unlock his own cell.

This place prides itself on being the most secure prison. Therefore, besides the obvious defenses, there might be other invisible defense mechanisms.

After considering it, Mu You turns his gaze towards the cell next door.

[The drunken pirate in the adjacent cell notices you watching and immediately begins to curse and threaten you, swearing to kill you once he gets out. You decide...]

[You quietly lift your finger out of sight, directing it towards the lock of cell number 1104, unlocking it with a ’keyheart open’ with a 1.12% success rate.]

[With a ’click’, you successfully unlock the lock of the neighboring cell.]

[The cursing of the drunk pirate suddenly stops as he notices his lock, inexplicably opened. He pretends not to care, however, starts furtively looking around.]

[It wasn’t until the patrolling Octopus Soldier outside had rounded a corner that the drunken pirate hurriedly rose, scampered to check the lock.]

[Upon confirming that the lock was indeed open, the pirate was overjoyed. He quickly opened the lock and slipped out stealthily.]

[Freedom is ingrained in the heart of every pirate, and could hardly be suppressed even by a two-day sentence.]

[The ecstatic pirate stepped out of the cell, but as soon as he does, an Octopus statue in front of his cell emitted a thunderous glow from its bright eyes, hitting the pirate.]

[The pirate collapsed on the ground in agony, his body curled up.]

[At the same time, alarms blared, and several Octopus prison guards arrived quickly. Upon discovering the unsuccessful escapee, they began to whip the pirate with their tentacles, before throwing him back into the cell and relocking the door.]

[The pirate’s eyes rolled back, and he passed out.]

[You observed that the statue which had emitted the thunderbolt had dimmed eyes - it needed time to recharge.]

"There’s a trick indeed..."

Mu You watched, amazed.

It turned out the row of statues outside also served as defenses where each statue corresponded to a prison cell. Any prisoner from the corresponding cell that tried to escape would be electrocuted, triggering an alarm.

However, the statue’s electrocution wasn’t infinite - it required time to recover after triggering each time.

Given this...

[With a ’click’, you unlock the door of your cell.]

[You use the straw inside the cell to create a clone.]

[The clone walks to the cell door, opens it, and walks out.]

[The clone is hit by electricity from the statue in front, dying amid the blistering arcs and turning back into straw.]

[The alarm rings, you rise to pick up the straw outside the cell, and relock the cell door.]

[Soon, a group of Octopus prison guards arrive, checking outside your cell, finding no escapee.]
