Main Control Room of Shenlada No. 1 Prison, the two mecha Machine Puppet controlled by Bai Qiuran and Tang Ruowei were watching the footage displayed on the surveillance cameras in Area Three.

When Bai Qiuran saw the Half-Beast and Werewolves render the two Guardian Machine Puppet powerless, dismantle their weapon parts, and open all the cell doors in Area Three, she did not immediately sound the alarm.

He casually used the maintenance equipment on the table to give each finger of his Machine Puppet body a minor treatment. Then, he opened his chest panel to examine the Artificial Purple Mansion structure embedded within his body. Finally, when the Area Three Prison was almost completely destroyed by the Half-Beast and Werewolves, under Tang Ruowei's speechless gaze, he pressed the Prison alarm and announced into the Microphone in a nonchalant, cold, mechanical voice. "Attention all units! Attention all units! A prisoner has escaped from the Area Three. Proceed to suppress the escape. I repeat, proceed to suppress the escape."

He spoke casually, without notifying other units within the Prison that two Guardian- level Machine Puppet had already been attacked by escaped convicts, and even parts of their weapons had been dismantled and used.

Machine Puppet guarding Shenlada No. 1 Prison were all Ascension from various Kinfolk. They inherently harbored a prejudice against the clans they once belonged to. When Bai Qiuran reported that someone had escaped from the Area Three Prison, they didn't take it seriously. Only two Guardian Machine Puppet from the neighboring Area Two came out, casually accepted the mission, and wanted to go and suppress them.

Moreover, when they rushed over to suppress the crime, Bai Qiuran shamelessly used the Main Control Room's broadcast system to threaten the Prisoners in the Area Three Prison. In his threat, he inadvertently revealed the number and type of the Guardian Machine Puppet that came to suppress the crime, as well as the entrance to the Area Three Prison.

Thus, the two confident Guardian Machine Puppet were hit head-on by the Guardian Machine Puppet Runes Arm Cannon the moment they entered the Area Three Prison. Then, their Spiritual Platform were blocked by the Mental Signal Interference Device that the intelligent beings who had circled around to their backs had created earlier, causing them to crash on the spot.

The Intelligent Lifeforms dismantled the weapon components of the two Guardian Machine Puppet as before, and then took the opportunity to infiltrate the Area Two Prison.

The number of Guardian in Shenlada No. 1 Prison is not very large. The Prison has only five areas, and each area is usually guarded by only two Guardian Machine Puppet.

Including the two guards stationed in the Main Control Room and the team stationed on the Landing Pad, the total number of Guardian Machine Puppet guarding Shenlada No. 1 Prison is only about twenty.

This is due to a variety of factors. On the one hand, the Guardian are stationed in the Prison year-round, and their merits rise very slowly, unlike those front-line combat-type Machine Puppet in the same sequence who can be promoted very quickly. Therefore, very few people choose to be promoted to Guardian. On the other hand, the Machine Puppet Divine Court itself does not think much of the Intelligent Lifeforms imprisoned in the Shenlada Prison.

The Machine God harbors an unconscious contempt for this kind of mortal life.

That's why the Intelligent Lifeforms in Shenlada Prison had the opportunity to escape. But even so, they had been planning this escape for decades, and the plan had even stalled before Bai Qiuran and Tang Ruowei arrived.

The reason these Intelligent Lifeforms were able to create such a Mental Signal Blocking Device to suppress the Guardian Machine Puppet was naturally due to Bai Qiuran's involvement.

Tonight's opportunity was naturally arranged Bai Qiuran.

Bai Qiuran and Tang Ruowei did not choose to give these Intelligent Lifeforms a chance during their night patrol. They wanted to continue their covert operations for a while longer, so clearing their names was a crucial step.

Therefore, when Bai Qiuran and Tang Ruowei were assigned to the Main Control Room of Shenlada No. 1 Prison as a pair, the Intelligent Lifeforms were given this opportunity.

In the Main Control Room, Bai Qiuran and Tang Ruowei watched calmly as the five areas of Shenlada No. 1 Prison fell one after another. Countless pre -Intelligent Lifeforms that had degenerated into beasts were released by other organized Prisoners and wreaked havoc in various areas. In the midst of the chaos, the Guardian Machine Puppet guarded the five areas were rendered powerless one by one by these Prisoners using Mental Signal Blocking Device.

Currently, the Prisoners have seized weapon components from the Prison's Guardian Machine Puppet and are heading towards the Landing Pad.

The remaining Guardian Machine Puppet also gathered on the Landing Pad. They understood that the only way for these Prisoners to escape Shenlada No. 1 Prison was by relying on these Spaceship with Void travel capabilities parked on the Landing Pad.

A distress signal came through the communication channel from the Prison Warden of Shenlada No. 1 Prison. This was also a Guardian- type Machine Puppet, a veteran who had guarded the Prison for hundreds of years and was on the verge of promotion.

However, after this incident, it will likely be downgraded to the Prototype Machine Puppet Sequence and undergo several more years of refinement.

"Received, the books and I will be there shortly."

In the Main Control Room, Bai Qiuran responded to the rescue signal coming from the channel using mental fluctuations, and then looked at Tang Ruowei.

"We're off too... Have you all remembered everything? How do we operate it?"

"Leave it to me."

Tang Ruowei was full of confidence.

"Having witnessed Sister Li betraying her master and ancestors so many times, I've already gained a lot of experience in dealing with teammates who are a burden to their masters."

"That's fine."

Bai Qiuran, along with Tang Ruowei, piloted the Machine Puppet body away from the Main Control Room and headed towards the Landing Pad.

Along the way, the two hurriedly cleared out the wild beasts that had escaped from prison. Of course, they also used the aftershocks of the attack to open up many shortcuts to the Landing Pad in the complex Prison.

Some of the escaped Prison understood the unspoken message and followed behind the two Guardian Machine Puppet towards the Landing Pad, without launching an attack.

Upon arriving at the perimeter of the Landing Pad, Bai Qiuran and Tang Ruowei witnessed the fugitives and the Guardian Machine Puppet engaging in combat. The Guardian were formidable, wielding Tower Shield in one hand Runes Cannon in the other, holding their ground on the Landing Pad with overwhelming firepower.

However, the fugitives outnumbered the rest and were well-trained. Although they were only mortals and could be killed by even a glancing blow from the Runes Cannon, they were fearless. One of them carried Artificial Purple Mansion, while the other carried Runes Cannon that had been dismantled from the Guardian Machine Puppet. They fought back from behind cover, and for a time the two sides were evenly matched.

The Guardian Sequence Machine Puppet were only one level higher than the Prototype Machine Puppet. In direct combat, they were roughly equivalent to Cultivators at the Body Integration Stage. Normally, Cultivators at the Body Integration Stage would be considered Land Immortal to these mortals, and they would be unable to resist. However, thanks to the funding provided by Bai Qiuran and the Mental Signal Blocking Device designed to exploit the weaknesses of the Guardian Machine Puppet, coupled with the fact that these Prisoners of the Kinfolk were not entirely without cultivation, some of whom had cultivated the Way of Runes of the Machine God, they were able to successfully launch a sneak attack and use the weapons of the Guardian Machine Puppet to fight these powerful machines.

The Guardian Machine Puppet possess formidable firepower; each Runes Cannon nearly causes an earth-shaking explosion. Fortunately, this Prison was built by the Machine God, with sturdy materials, providing the escaped prisoners with cover. The melee-type Guardian Machine Puppet were also closely monitored; any attempt to take to the air for a surprise attack would be met with focused fire from the Runes Cannon.

Moreover, while they were exchanging fire, some of the fugitives had already quietly bypassed the battlefield, reached a distance from the Landing Pad, boarded some Spaceship, and begun attempting to start them Spaceship and escape.
