Chapter 204: The Punishment Chamber

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After realizing that it was indeed the red crystal, Fu Shinan felt a slight sense of anxiety. He needed to inform Professor Feng and the others as soon as possible. Otherwise, without Ji Zan’s guidance, he would be in even more trouble… The thought nearly completely consumed him. Taking control of the captain’s body, he transferred his consciousness from Bell to the man. However, she was troubled by what to do with her own body. Just as she found herself in a dilemma, the system in her mind suddenly prompted her, asking if she wanted to store her body.

Without hesitation, Fu Shinan selected ‘yes’. It was in that moment she realized that the system had undergone an upgrade.

However, there was no time for her to dwell on this discovery. She quickly returned to where she had been earlier to search for MO Cheng and the others. Unfortunately, she was too late. They had vanished! Frustrated, she hurried to the Black Snake Organization. However, she was immediately stopped by a burly man.

“What’s the matter?” Fu Shinan smiled, brandishing her team leader’s badge impatiently.

“That’s odd,” the guard said, confused. “Why do I sense the aura of a wanderer?”

Just then, a woman in a red coat approached slowly. She glanced at the door and remarked, “I recognize this person. He’s from the patrol team. The wanderers have been captured. Go inside quickly. Don’t block the entrance. There’s a meeting soon, and I don’t want to waste my time!”

The woman in red seemed to hold some authority. The guard wisely held his tongue.

Meanwhile, Fu Shinan began to break out in a cold sweat. She hadn’t expected this group of people to be so recognizable. She remembered that when they entered the city, the guards had acknowledged each of them with a nod. The guard must have sensed something amiss with her body in the system.

Thankfully, the system remained well-hidden, evading any detection. Fu Shinan decided to follow the woman inside, hoping to seize the opportunity to transfer her consciousness to someone with more power. Yet, the system unexpectedly notified her that the other person was too formidable, and her spiritual power would be reflected back at her.

This was the first time Fu Shinan had encountered such a predicament. Shocked, she quickly retreated into hiding.

The woman in red stopped in her tracks and scanned the area.

“Sister Hong, why haven’t you gone in?” A man approached and patted her shoulder.

“Someone just launched a mental attack on me,” Sister Hong coldly reported.

“How is that possible? Go inside already. The meeting is starting!” the man replied nonchalantly.

Seizing this opportunity, Fu Shinan connected with the man. This time, her attempt was successful, and her vision shifted. Before her eyes appeared a rectangular table with four seats on each side, the main seat conspicuously empty.Just as Fu Shinan started to grow impatient, a masked man walked in. Although she couldn’t see his face, she felt an unexplainable sense of oppression. Others in the room couldn’t stand it and coughed a few times.

“Venerable One, you’re here!” Everyone stood up.

“Did you catch the wanderers today?” the man asked directly.

A man next to Fu Shinan responded, “We caught a few of them and took their belongings. However, five of them managed to escape…”

“What happened?” The Venerable’s face turned cold.

The man seemed terrified. He lowered his head and replied, “I don’t know. It was like that when I arrived. A child, two young men, a dog, and a woman ran away…”

Fu Shinan knew that the woman was her! It seemed that MO Cheng and Sun Han had escaped with the golden retriever and Xiao Chang ‘an.

“Continue the search!” the Venerable said grimly. “Make sure we have all the red crystals!”

As he spoke, Fu Shinan felt a chill in the air. The temperature had actually dropped! Was it the Venerable’s doing? Before she could ponder further, the Venerable had already left.

Fu Shinan was also a strong spiritual leader. She constantly fought to maintain control over her body. In this moment, she couldn’t give in. She had to keep her composure, even though her face turned pale.

“Old Hei, what’s wrong?” Sister Hong glanced at her.

Fu Shinanreplied, “I’m fine. Just a bit tired. I want to go and see the prisoners first. Maybe I can gather some information from them…”

“I’ll go with you. Let’s go,” Sister Hong said.

Since Fu Shinan didn’t know their relationship, she couldn’t refuse hastily, especially when Sister Hong was already pulling her arm.

The two of them quickly arrived at the prison cell. Upon entering, they saw various torture devices. A red-hot branding iron, a spiked whip…all sorts of tools were present. Several people were tied to the pillars in the cell, including Professor Feng and the others. It was evident that they had been tortured. Li Hu was the most severely injured, with not a patch of unharmed skin left.

When the prisoners saw who entered, fear filled their eyes..
