In the dead of night, a shadow was stealthily moving around, reaching the side of the well, targeting national property... oh no, slipping into Area A-1 while the guards were not paying attention.

At Lin Hai's twelve o'clock direction, there was an entry passage.

Four armed guards with live ammunition stood on both sides of the passage, and the searchlights on the high wall would sweep every three seconds.

Furthermore, at four positions at the passage entrance, there were panoramic infrared sensor cameras installed, with four Gatling-style machine guns beside them, controlled by temperature.

If anyone dares to intrude, the infrared and cameras would instantly capture them, and the machine guns would automatically fire.

The four positions practically locked down any evasive angles, enough to shred anyone into pieces in 0.3 seconds.

"Sh*t, the entrance for high-grade felons is too heavily guarded!"

After carefully observing, Lin Hai couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat off his forehead.

This entrance is too hard to infiltrate...

"No, the guards seem very calm, could it be that they are not afraid of accidentally stepping into the infrared zone?"

After noticing this, Lin Hai immediately focused on the guards.

On the guards' waists was a square object similar to a walkie-talkie, drawing Lin Hai's attention.

Especially as it blinked with a regular red light.

"So that's the thing, in the United States' high-security prisons and military secret bases, they already use infrared peer transmitters."

"Didn't expect Heavenly Prison's tech products to be quite awesome too."

Lin Hai instantly understood that the guards fearlessly stepped into the infrared zone because of these infrared peer transmitters.

This device can be directly deemed as safe and harmless, thus preventing the weapons from engaging automatically.

"Heh, my nickname used to be Master Thief Lin."

Lin Hai mumbled to himself, lurking in the grass on the ground, silently counting down: "3, 2, 1..."

Just as the searchlight swept past, Lin Hai moved like an oversized gecko, with both hands and feet moving simultaneously, in the grass silently, reaching the top of the passage with the blink of an eye.

The guard only felt a breeze pass by their back.

Looking up, they saw nothing.

"Strange."

"What's the matter?" a fellow guard asked in confusion.

The guard looked around puzzled, shook his head: "I felt like someone just passed by here."

"Tch, did you play too many video games yesterday? Having hallucinations?"

"Where is this place? Even Legendary masters from the outside world wouldn't dare to enter."

"Besides, we are equipped with the most advanced defense system, let alone people, even flies wouldn't fly in here."

The aged guard pointed at the infrared scanning automatic defense system with full confidence.

The young guard nodded: "Alright, I was just being paranoid."

Saying this, he muttered to himself: "Something truly feels off."

At this time, Lin Hai had already taken the infrared peer transmitter from the young guard's waist, easily and effortlessly bypassing the infrared defense system, entering into the passage.

According to the map's instructions, fifty meters forward, turn a corner, then thirty meters, and a left turn, he would arrive at the area where Taotie was being held.

In the area opposite Taotie, the Netherworld Guest was held.

Thirty seconds later, Lin Hai appeared at the door of Taotie's room.

No guards stood at the door.

The massive special metal, along with occasionally flickering high-voltage currents, made Lin Hai's scalp tingle.

If the Supreme Strong touched it, they might be electrified to death within minutes, probably why there were no guards.

"Who are you?"

A hoarse voice echoed from inside the room.

Lin Hai's heart trembled, the other party already sensed his presence, no wonder he was Taotie.

"Are you Taotie?" Lin Hai asked.

"You are not a guard here?"

Taotie's hoarse voice, like a corpse just crawling out of the underworld, gave people an extreme sense of decay.

Such hoarseness, Lin Hai once had too, when Little Scorpion died, and he drifted alone overseas, drinking heavily for three days and nights, not knowing how much liquor he drank, how many tears he shed, punching countless pits into the ground, eventually almost blinding himself, and his voice became incredibly hoarse.

When a person is heartbroken to the point of fragmentation, under the dominion of such despairing will, it often results in such hoarseness.

"Taotie, I'm here to rescue you." Lin Hai said in a deep voice toward the door.

"Rescue me? Are you not here to kill me?" Taotie snorted coldly.

"Kill you? Why would I kill you?" Lin Hai was stunned.

"You reek of Immortal Ascension Holy Blood and the presence of the Yanhuang Soul license, were you sent by Tianlong?"

Taotie's voice sounded like it came from the Nine Nether, especially the words "Tianlong," filled with killing intent, sending chills down one's spine.

Immortal Ascension Holy Blood?

What is that?

"I don't know what you're talking about, I'm here to get you out." Lin Hai furrowed his brows, pondering what Immortal Ascension Holy Blood is. Could it be a product of the Immortal Ascension Plan? It seemed like he never encountered that stuff before.

Wait a minute...

No, the Holy Blood... he did drink Holy Blood, but wasn't that the precious thing of the RX organization?

How did it become Immortal Ascension Holy Blood with Taotie? Could it be, the Immortal Ascension Plan banned by Huaxia for a long time had RX involved?

"Taotie, I'm really here to save you, it's Old Mr. Tao who sent me." Lin Hai put aside his doubts and said again.

"Old Mr. Tao..."

Taotie muttered to himself, seemingly sinking into memory.

A dozen or so seconds later, he spoke to Lin Hai again: "Old Mr. Tao wouldn't possibly save me."

"I killed Tianlong's sister, killed seventeen Supreme expert masters of the Yanhuang Soul, killed a total of seven hundred twenty-two people from the Cao Family, Zhang Family, Xiao Family, and Chen Family, and nearly destroyed the Xuanyuan Family with a nuclear bomb."

"Do you think Old Mr. Tao would dare to release someone like me?"

Sh*t!

Lin Hai's eyes widened.

Damn, the person he was supposed to save was so badass.

Seven hundred twenty-two people, and they were all from super families in Yanjing.

Although the Zhang Family and Xiao Family might not be counted as super families anymore, they were still formidable.

And... carrying a nuclear bomb almost destroyed the Xuanyuan Family, what the hell was this? Isn't it too violent?

"Um... Brother Taotie, why did you do all that? Was it just for a woman?" Lin Hai tentatively asked.

"What do you know? My true love is dead, my heart is buried, everyone related should accompany him in death!"

Taotie's voice was filled with intense murderous intent.

Even through the massive metal door, Lin Hai could feel the ferocity and terror of that murderous intent.

"Get out of here, I don't need your rescue."

"Don't you want revenge?"

Lin Hai asked.

He felt Taotie was akin to how he was back then, only he was ultimately redeemed, while Taotie, because of his obsession with killing, was confined in a place of perpetual darkness.

"Revenge? When I surpass the Legendary level, I will naturally seek revenge, now leave me alone, do not bother me."

Lin Hai was speechless.

After tens of minutes in a stalemate, no matter how he persuaded, Taotie still refused to leave.

Eventually, as time was running out, Lin Hai could not stay long and had to slip away.

In the cell, a man with his clavicle pierced through, his whole body tightly chained with iron chains as thick as a wrist, murmured: "If it weren't for the benefactor's scent on you, I would have definitely killed you, perhaps, you truly came to save me..."
