I don't think Piu Piu will be back sooner than I thought. He casually put the key into my cell.
The number of keys tied to that rope was more than fifty keys, I don't know how Piu Piu carried dozens of keys this heavy in his mouth.
"Neo, this is a lot," I gulped.
"Of course, Jian. This is a large prison room, in every hallway there must be other prison dividers in the tens. I've read that they like to catch evil witches in the Curious Spirit Forest."
"You know where there's a lot of prison bulkheads here?" I asked in wonder.
"I've seen it in a book in my room. Dixia Academy has a very large prison room, and the largest in the City of Pubu."
I took a breath, which one should I choose?
"Quick, Jian. Before the guards realize that their keys are missing, we must escape from here in order to be free to use our magic energy," Rui knocked on the wall again.
"Alright, Rui." I clasped the keys, tried them one by one in the lockhole of the prison cell.
Please .... I've even tried over fifteen keys. None of them fit the hole in this padlock.
"Hurry, Jian!" Neo exclaimed, making me lose my concentration. I can't think anymore, I don't know, everything looks the same, nothing distinguishes except the oddly shaped emblems that are at the taper end of the key.
Wait for.
Could it be a secret code?
I immediately checked if there was anything on this padlock. Nothing seems wrong. But I found a strange shape on top of the keyhole. Very small, I might not be able to see it clearly if I didn't squint my eyes.
Shaped like a cyclone spiral, I checked if there was a key with the same code.
Meet me!
Does the concept look like that? Huh, it's old-fashioned. I didn't think about it because I thought it was impossible.
"Rui, Neo. Tell me what's the picture above your keyhole?" I asked my two friends.
"picture? There's no picture here, Jian." Rui mumbled softly.
"No, Rui. There's got to be, check it again, he's so small, you need to get your face close and squint to see it. Look again," I keep pressing.
I heard a panic attack from a distance. They may have realized the prison key is missing. And I was running towards this place.
"There's a picture of fire!" Rui exclaims.
I immediately threw the key with the fire code at Rui.
"What's the picture above your keyhole, Neo?" I'm standing in front of Neo's cell. He was still staring at the big padlock carefully.
"I still don't think there's anything above the keyhole, Jian. There really is nothing here. I've seen it many times, but this seems different to your and Rui's keys" Neo said with a folded face, "Am I going to be left inside here, Jian?" Neo looked at me with a clear face.
What the fuck? How disgusting. I threw all the keys at Neo, "Then, just try everything one by one. We don't have much time, you have to be fast!"
Neo caught it, immediately tried it one by one. But in the middle, Neo suddenly stopped him, then looked at me and Rui who was waiting for him in front of his cell.
"Rui, Jian's. Combine your magic power to destroy this padlock!" Neo throws away the keys, "All the keys don't matter, because these locks never have keys!"
What does he mean? We were still staring at each other, "Are we able to use magic techniques here?" Rui asked me.
"Can, Rui. You're already outside the cell. Looks like they locked the padlock according to the power that is within you. They know your magic energy is wind and fire, so you can't use your magic energy inside the cell, because your magic energy is locked together with the padlock" Neo explained.
"Because they don't know my true strength, Jian, Rui. My powers are uncertain, sometimes fickle, I don't even know what basic elements are on my white card. They couldn't create a magic key without knowing the basic elements of the person to be locked. So they'll lock it using their magic. That's why this lock doesn't have a key." Neo explained it again, "Quick, Jian, Rui. Destroy this."
Rui and I nodded, gathering our Magic Energy at the tip of our index and middle fingers, causing a huge wind swish from there, Rui's index finger glowed, I felt a tremendous heat from standing beside her. This padlock is very hard, we need a lot of time to make it crack a little bit,
"They're there!"
I looked back, it was June, Rux, Paw and Kie. Also some prison guards. God, why isn't the lock broken yet? I almost lost my strength just to destroy one padlock.
"Rui, stay here and save Neo, I'll stop them in my own way. And expose the lies of Rux!" i exclaimed.
"Don't, Jian. That's very dangerous, how about—"
"Just calm down, there's Piu Piu with me. You have to be careful, okay?" I immediately jumped into the air, putting up a barrier over Rui and Neo. This should work.
"You crooks! A thief! Just get out of this world!" Rux jumped in front of me, brandishing his long stick.
I dodged as quickly as possible. It shouldn't be complicated, they're just a small part. I should be able to keep up with their strength.
But...
Arah!
I grimaced, my body slammed from a height of five meters, thumped into the ground rocks, felt pain and pain.
"Dian!" Rui exclaimed, her face very anxious, she shed tears.
We just woke up, even still hungry, stupid, we decided to escape without preparation and a careful plan. We fully understand the consequences, but did not do well. He insisted that he did not want to die.
"Jian, hang on in a minute, we'll be here to help you!" Rui shouted loudly, then roared until the ground we were shaking, Rui let out a small fireball that immediately exploded to burn the entire prison room.
I think I died from that big explosion, it was all dark and hot. But I realized my body was floating in the air, Rui took me out of the prison that was burning with great fire.
We passed through the fire just like that, I vaguely saw Neo floating beside me. His face looked enthusiastic, and happy. Huh huh? She's why, anyway?
As soon as Rui let us down, Neo immediately clapped his hands, "It feels so cool floating among the flames. You're cool too, Rui. Does your strength always increase at the last moment? Should you see Jian dying first new mau—"
The plot!!
"Oww! It's sick! Why are you hitting my head again, Jian? Don't you think we're in a serious situation?" Neo glared at me.
I frowned, "The joke is you! Why blame me? I'm just warning you that this is a serious situation! It's not a situation where you can talk about someone's strength so freely."
Neo didn't listen to my babble, he took out his little book again. I grabbed him before he spoke more.
"Especially to have time to write something in a journal!" I called out ketus.
"Hehee," Neo grinned broadly feeling himself innocent, "You mustn't be so angry, Jian. I'm afraid your skin will wrinkle prematurely. Let's hide and think of a way."
I snorted, if not realizing the situation was precarious, I would definitely curse this one bastard throughout the seven derivatives!
"Where do you think we can hide?" Rui wiped away our debate, she looked back, thick smoke still billowing there. But there has been no sign of Rux and his friends coming out of the rubble.
But...
Watch out, Rui!!!
