Jailer

Kitchen → Dungeon Hall

The two were connected by a staircase.

Luo Di climbed the stairs but did not dare approach the stairwell exit, lest the firelight spread outside. If that flock of crows happened to be up there, it would be real trouble.

Because of his earlier series of toilet-related actions, Luo Di's tongue was temporarily on strike.

He had originally planned to spread out the mist and investigate the situation in the hall.

But the pupil at the corner of his eye began to move, nesting itself over Luo Di's original pupil once more and forming a "Double Pupils" structure.

Splat!

On the ceiling,

An eyeball trailing black tentacles fell down, crawled up the stairs, and wriggled toward the pitch-black hall.

A perfect blackened field of vision was relayed to Luo Di, allowing him to see the hall in its entirety, down to every detail in every crevice.

The area was roughly three hundred square meters and supported by six pillars.

Including the branch leading to the kitchen, there were six other passages. The flock of crows that had previously wandered here was nowhere to be seen.

"Thanks."

"Thanks? I've emphasized this many times. I just don't want you falling into someone else's hands, especially that thing's."

Luo Di took the opportunity to ask again, "What exactly is that thing? Can you tell me? If we lose contact again and I happen to run into it, I might be able to find a way to avoid it."

The eyeball paused for a moment before its voice came through:

"Mm~ I'll explain it a little.

That thing is a 'Temporary Prisoner' held in this dungeon. It was originally sealed on the lowest floor. Once the time came, it would be transferred to a higher-level prison.

Who would have thought
