At this time, the four of them didn't know what they were about to face. Stepping into the black fog, a cold and suffocating feeling surged into their hearts. Looking at the pitch-black space around him, where he couldn't even see his fingers, Hou Hong couldn't help but shudder. Damn, why is this place so cold?
Suddenly, a warm light appeared from a distance. Within this space shrouded in black mist, a bonfire was emitting a reassuring light. Looking at the bonfire that suddenly rose in the dark space, Hou Hong was extremely vigilant. Liu San had told him before that once he got close to this bonfire, he would not be able to escape. Although his instincts told him not to approach, the increasingly cold temperature forced Hou Hong to get closer to it.
Soon, the four people reached the bonfire, and beside it, they found an envelope. Inside the letter was what Liu San had told them. After reading the rules of the game, at the end of the letter, Hou Hong saw a message that left a deep impression on him: "Death is never relief." Silently, Hou Hong put down the envelope in his hand. Only then did he realize that things seemed to be a little beyond his expectations.
In his previous assumptions, Hou Hong thought that the reason why Chen Erlong and others were so frightened by the small black room was probably due to being drugged by the prison. You should know that there are many psychedelics on the market that can cause hallucinations. But according to the law, hallucinogens cannot be used to punish prisoners. If evidence of the use of hallucinogens in Iron Castle Prison could be found, it would definitely be a heavy blow to the prison.
What Hou Hong didn't expect was that since entering this small dark room, he hadn't seen a ghost or a hallucinogen. Reality forced him to consider another possibility: what Chen Erlong, Liu San, and others said might be true. Perhaps deep in this prison, the crazy warden had let a butcher in to hunt him down. Thinking of this, Hou Hong looked at the three people beside him.
"How many of you guys are taking them with you?" he asked. After hearing Hou Hong's words, the three of them nodded silently and took out weapons from their bodies. Knife, tiger finger; Black Bear even took out a ferocious military thorn from his trouser leg, which made Hou Hong's eyelids jump. A master of swordsmanship in the underground boxing ring, Black Bear had such a long spur hidden on his person that the prison guards didn't detect it. It's clear Black Bear really had skills.
These weapons were sent to the prison by the Scarlo Group through special means. After taking a deep breath, Hou Hong whispered, "Guys, your mission is very simple. If a man with a butcher knife attacks you, kill him immediately. Do you understand?"
"Clear," they replied. The three of them looked at each other, a cruel light in their eyes. The people here were all villains who enjoyed violence. Since committing crimes and going to prison, they had been unable to commit violence as they did outside, due to the supervision of the prison.
With Brother Zhou's order, the violence in the three of them erupted once more. Especially Black Bear; as he looked at the Mitsubishi Army Thorn in his hand, his eyes shone with a strange smile. He seemed unable to restrain himself and was about to take action. While the four were discussing, a black mist suddenly enveloped them, and they lost consciousness before they could react.
I do not know how long it had been when Black Bear regained consciousness. When he opened his eyes, he realized that he was lying in an abandoned ward. Staring at everything around him in a daze, Black Bear retrieved the Mitsubishi Army Spur from behind and cautiously walked out of the ward. Outside, he found an abandoned circular corridor. The building was clearly in disrepair, and through the damaged walls, he could see the wasteland outside. The scene made Black Bear frown, as before coming, he had heard from Hou Hong that there was an abandoned manor behind the iron gate of the small black house. However, it now appeared to be more like a hospital instead of a manor.
Despite the unexpected change in setting, Black Bear did not let his guard down and moved cautiously through the hospital corridor with the Mitsubishi Army Spur in hand. His mission was simple: to act as a thug. According to Hou Hong, the young warden would send a strong man over two meters tall, wielding a machete, after him. While others might be afraid, Black Bear was not. Regardless of the opponent's strength, Black Bear considered himself formidable, having killed a real black bear in the underground boxing ring, earning him his nickname.
As he walked along the corridor, Black Bear saw a gap not far away. A wall had collapsed, and next to it, a black crow perched on the broken wall, staring at him. Black Bear stepped forward and waved the crow away to get a better view outside. The crows cawed shrilly as they flew off, but almost immediately after, a terrifying howl erupted from the distance. The sound was shrill and harsh, reminiscent of a ghost's wail. Before the black bear could react, an afterimage flashed before his eyes, and the eerie howling sounded behind him. He turned sharply and his pupils constricted at the sight. A woman in a gray nurse uniform, her face shrouded, holding a bone saw, hovered in the air, staring at him like a hanged ghost.
Ghost! Black Bear's voice wavered with fear upon seeing her suspended in the air. In an instant, the female ghost swung the bloody bone saw, and blood splattered everywhere!
