Everyone shivered, realizing that something was very wrong.
After listening to the warden's speech, everyone was assigned to their respective rooms.
Xavier, Kaeya, Venti, and Lyney were assigned to the same room.
Looking at the cold iron bars, the four of them were momentarily stunned, unable to react.
"By the way, we're not really stuck in prison, are we?" Lyney gripped the bars, looking utterly bewildered.
Kaeya nodded and said, "I think, if I'm not mistaken, that's the case. So, should we escape from here?"
"Of course, we have to escape from here. We can't just sit here and wait for death, can we? So, what we need to consider now is whether to just leave directly from here."
How could Xavier allow everyone to remain here?
And getting out of here was actually very simple; as long as they used their abilities, they could easily get out.
However, just as the four of them were discussing, a bell suddenly rang.
The doors of the rooms opened, and one by one, prisoners walked out, their faces looking very happy.
"Xavier, what are they going to do?"
Everyone was confused, having no understanding of this prison.
Xavier pricked up his ears, listening to the conversations of the prisoners outside.
"Finally, it's time for recreation again."
"Yeah, I bet these new rookies are going to get into trouble."
"I bet three cigarettes, guys!"
"I bet five! Big Tom is definitely going to have some fun with those soft-skinned guys!"
Xavier shrank his neck. Although these guys didn't say what "having fun" meant, Xavier felt it was probably similar to what he imagined.
Following everyone out of the dormitory area, they finally arrived at the exercise yard.
"Xavier, what on earth is going on!"
As soon as they reached the exercise yard, Chongyun and Xingqiu ran over.
It was clear that during this process, they had already understood that this place was a den of trouble.
Xavier shook his head in surprise: "I don't know either, but what are your plans next?"
"Plans? If you want to get out, I can take you out right now."
Cyno was a man of few words, and lightning still flickered around him as he spoke.
Alhaitham, however, shook his head and said, "According to my judgment, although this place is relatively dangerous, as long as you don't violate its rules, there will be no life-threatening danger."
Lyney scratched his head and said, "So your meaning is…"
"My meaning is simple: to escape from this place using our own methods, just as we agreed upon at the beginning."
"Haha, I don't care. After all, I was stuck in the mountains for several days before and couldn't get out..."
Bennett was an optimist; this situation put no pressure on him at all.
"I don't care either, I just don't know what the ladies think." Venti shrugged.
Only then did everyone remember that they had been divided into two groups and sent to two areas.
Although this prison was divided into two areas, the distance between them was not very far; there was only a thick iron mesh in the middle.
From this spot, they could see the female prisoner area not far away.
Everyone understood and moved closer to that side, only to witness a jaw-dropping scene.
Several female prisoners seemed to be very hot-tempered and eager to establish their authority.
"Hey, I'm talking to you, you bastard!"
A very obese and burly Black woman was seen approaching Shenhe.
Shenhe remained expressionless and asked Yanfei beside her, "What is she saying?"
As a lawyer, Yanfei had a deep understanding of the laws on Blue Star, and of course, she also had to learn English to better assist herself in her studies.
Yanfei immediately translated: "She just told you to come over and greet her, saying she's the boss here."
"But you ignored her, so she's very angry."
Shenhe nodded thoughtfully, then walked towards the other party.
"So, is there something I need to do next?"
Yanfei simultaneously translated that the Black woman was extremely furious; this woman's expression and words made her very uncomfortable.
In this place, no one could speak to her like that, so she raised her fist, intending to teach Shenhe a lesson.
"It's over..." Chongyun covered his eyes.
Of course, when he said "it's over," he didn't mean his aunt was in trouble, but that the other party was going to be in trouble.
Before the Black woman's fist could land, Shenhe counterattacked with extreme speed.
Before anyone else could react, the Black woman was already on the ground.
Having knocked the other person to the ground, Shenhe murmured, "I didn't attack first. Xavier shouldn't blame me, right...?"
"He shouldn't, right...?" Yanfei and the others exchanged glances.
After dealing with the boss, everyone finally noticed Xavier and the others on the other side.
Across the iron mesh, they began their first group meeting.
Xiangling complained, "This place is too chaotic! Why are there bad people everywhere? Let's get out of here quickly!"
"Of course we're going to get out, but not now."
"Why?"
Xavier said faintly, "Because someone is locked in solitary confinement."
Eula nodded, finding it very reasonable: "What should we do next then?"
"Prison break." Alhaitham said concisely, "The next thing we need to do is break out of prison, which is the same as our original purpose for coming here."
Amber shook his head and said, "No, I've already checked. This place has almost no blind spots; it's guarded 360 degrees."
Fischl also complained, "That's right, and those guys are constantly patrolling. Even if we wanted to get out, we wouldn't have time."
"You can't say that." Rosaria retorted, "As long as we find the right opportunity, there will always be a chance to escape. Even the most rigorous defenses have moments of laxity."
"As long as we all work together, we'll surely find a way!"
"Yes, we'll unite and work hard; there will always be a way!"
Watching everyone's high spirits, Zhongli suddenly poured a bucket of cold water on them.
"Generally speaking, the probability of errors occurring in a place like this is extremely low."
"If we're lucky, maybe we can get out in a few days, but if our luck is bad, this loophole might take several years."
Everyone's faces immediately darkened. If it took several years to get out of here, what about their careers and lives?
"However..."
Unexpectedly, Zhongli spoke in gasps, saying half and leaving half.
"Oh, you old fossil, no more 'however'! Just say it!" It was Hu Tao who was more restrained with Zhongli, directly scolding him.
"However, although it's not easy for them to show flaws, we can create flaws."
