Chapter 583

In the conference room, Quentin and Victoria casually chatted about some of the changes that had taken place in Purgatory Gate in recent years.

Reid followed Belinda around and soon had a general understanding of Purgatory Gate before returning to the conference room where Quentin was.

"How do you feel after walking around?" Quentin asked Reid with a smile.

"It seems to be completely different from what I thought." Reid had been a little worried about Gu Ding's recent situation, but after seeing the various facilities and configurations of Purgatory Gate, he finally felt a little relieved. "However, this prison is too clean. There's not even a fallen leaf on the ground."

"That's because we used …" Belinda was about to tell the truth, but Victoria answered the question first.

"That's because I knew Grandmaster was coming today, so I deliberately pulled an all-nighter last night to get everyone to clean up. It's not usually this clean … "Victoria covered her mouth as she laughed, then secretly glared at Belinda.

"Oh, so that's how it is." Reid guessed from Victoria and Belinda's expressions that there must be more to the matter, but he did not dwell too much on such details.

"We've talked so much. Girl, you're my grand-disciple, so I won't hide it from you. Let's talk about the purpose of my visit …" Quentin said as he glanced at Belinda.

Victoria immediately understood. "Belinda, go and guard the door. No one is allowed to come in without my orders."

"Yes." Belinda bowed, turned around, and left the conference room, closing the door behind her.

This conference room had a formation to prevent detection and eavesdropping. As long as the door was closed, it was simply an independent small world, completely isolated from the outside world.

Seeing that Quentin did not let Reid leave, Victoria immediately understood that Reid was extremely important to Quentin.

"Little girl, it's like this. I'm not here for an inspection, but to visit the senior on the eighteenth floor. I've reached the critical point of breaking through to the Heavenly God Realm, and I'm only a step away from breaking through, so I urgently need that senior's guidance. " Quentin explained his purpose of coming. Victoria was his grand-disciple and was considered one of them, so there was no need to hide it from her.

Victoria was stunned at first, then her face turned a little bitter as she stammered, "Grandmaster, that senior … seems to have broken out of prison …"

"What?!" Quentin thought she had heard wrong. Her eyes widened as she asked, "Did you say that the senior escaped from prison?!"

Victoria then told him about what happened that day in the ancient treasury. In fact, she had never been to the eighteenth floor, but she could feel that the coercion was different from the previous coercion. Furthermore, he had also heard Gu Cang shouting that he wanted to break out of the prison, so he guessed that Gu Cang had already succeeded in breaking out.

"How could this be …" Quentin was a little dazed. He didn't expect to receive such news after spending more than a month fighting for the chief seat of the House of Representatives.

"Senior Quentin, Lord Warden also said that the lord imprisoned on the 18th floor seemed to have left something there. I don't think you should be in a hurry. You can go to the eighteenth floor and take a look. Perhaps that lord left behind some other opportunities, "Reid advised when he saw Quentin's expression.

"Yes, there might be other opportunities. Girl, bring me to the eighteenth floor!" Quentin hurriedly turned around and said to Victoria after hearing Reid's words.

Victoria nodded at first, then looked at Reid with some hesitation. "Patriarch, the lower we go, the stronger the coercion. I'm afraid that little brother Reid …"

With her strength, she could tell at a glance that Reid's strength was not at true god-level. She was afraid that Reid would not be able to withstand the coercion if he went below the eighth floor.

"I won't be going with you …" Reid said as he looked at Quentin. It was not easy for him to speak about Gu Ding's matter, but it would be much easier with Quentin's help.

Quentin had been in a hurry earlier and had almost forgotten about Reid's matter. She then said, "Reid is friends with that little guy named Gu Ding. He came here this time because he wants to see Gu Ding. Girl, please help arrange it."

"Although this is against the rules, since little brother Reid needs it, I'll make an exception and let you see him once. No one else will know anyway." Victoria agreed readily. Purgatory Gates had never allowed visitors to visit prisoners, but as the warden, no one dared to say anything if Victoria allowed visitors.

"Thank you, Sir Warden." Reid also knew that if it were not for Quentin, even if he came into Purgatory Gates with others, the possibility of Victoria agreeing to this matter was not high.

"Also, girl, if I don't come back in three days, you can arrange for Reid to leave directly. This is a prison after all, and it's not suitable for him to stay for long. "Quentin also made arrangements for the rest.

"That's not a problem. It's fine if little brother Reid wants to stay a few more days." Victoria also agreed readily on this matter.

"Then let's go." Quentin was a little anxious to enter the eighteenth floor, wanting to see what the ancient treasure left behind was.

Victoria nodded and pushed open the door of the conference room. Victoria whispered a few words in Belinda's ear, who was guarding the door, before leaving with Quentin.

Belinda watched the two of them leave before walking towards Reid.

"Gu Ding is now on the sixth floor of Purgatory Gates. Come with me."

"The sixth floor? I just heard Sir Warden say that there's an eighteenth floor. Are there only eighteen floors in total in Purgatory Gates? What's the difference between each floor? "Reid could not help asking.

"There are only eighteen floors in total in Purgatory Gates. The eighteenth floor is the lowest floor, and it's said that a terrifying powerhouse is imprisoned there. In Purgatory Gates, different floors represent different levels of combat effectiveness. The first to fourth floors correspond to Lower Rank Deities to Extreme Rank Deities. The fifth to seventh floors correspond to half-step True Gods. The eighth floor and above is for True God powerhouses. Among them, the seventeenth floor is for the tenth-rank Strongest King.

"On the sixth floor where Gu Ding is, under normal circumstances, the prisoners imprisoned have combat effectiveness between four-star half-step True Gods and six-star half-step True Gods. However, those who are locked in the Gates of Purgatory are basically monstrous geniuses. Their actual combat power is slightly higher, roughly between five-star and eight-star Half-step Real Gods. "

Belinda explained in great detail.

"Before Gu Ding was arrested, his combat effectiveness should be around four-star half-step True Gods. It seems that his strength has improved again in the past two months." Reid had not been idle for more than a month. He had carefully combed through the news of Gu Ding's crew when he was in the Outland Battlefield, and he knew what level Gu Ding's combat effectiveness was at that time.

"His current cultivation level has increased to five-star half-step True God, and his combat effectiveness is about six-star half-step True God." Victoria was not the only one who paid attention to Gu Ding, many other guardians were also paying attention to him. Belinda had also seen some of Gu Ding's combat videos during this period.

"It seems that he's improved a lot." The corners of Reid's mouth curled up slightly. He had improved so much in the past few months because he had a special encounter.

In the Outland Battlefield, he had broken into a True God ruin, and not only had he obtained the inheritance of a ninth-rank Titled King, but he had also obtained all of the Titled King's treasures. Therefore, in a few months, his cultivation level had directly jumped to Extreme Rank Deity, and his strength had also skyrocketed. However, in more than two months, in a place like Hell Gate, Gu Ding's cultivation level had broken through four minor ranks in a row, and his strength had also increased by two levels.

Of course, what Reid did not know was that Gu Ding had actually also had a chance encounter in Hell Gate, and his cultivation level had directly increased through a Universe Fruit.

Even the guardians did not know about this, and they never cared about what these prisoners had gained in the Outland Battlefield.

"For the first five floors, Gu Ding basically crushed them all. Now that he's on the sixth floor, there are many people who are stronger than him, so he runs to the arena every day to compete with others. There seems to be a match going on now. "Belinda also told him about Gu Ding's recent situation.

"Let's go and have a look. It's not a bad thing to see that guy embarrass himself." Reid could not help but laugh.

Belinda led Reid all the way, and halfway through, she finally could not help but ask, "Mr. Reid, what is your relationship with Gu Ding?"

"We grew up together. When we first met him, we were both five years old." Reid raised his head and looked at the blue sky.

"I still remember that day. It was a rainy and gloomy day. I lost my way and ended up in the red light district. In the red light district, the adults were fine, but it was the kids in their teens who liked to bully people. I was surrounded by a group of children, robbed of my money, and even beaten up. When I met Gu Ding, that guy was obviously thinner and weaker than me, but I don't know where he got the courage to stand in front of me. I thought he was very strong, but he ended up getting beaten up together with me …

"Later on, we studied together and got into the Military Academy together. However, in terms of fighting, I never beat him. "At this point, Reid grinned.

"Until last year, when our Dragon Soar Cosmic Nation and Faye Cosmic Nation opened a direct channel, that kid Gu Ding dropped out of school and became an Interstellar Pirate. Since then, we haven't seen each other directly. It's been more than half a year since then. "

At the thought of seeing Gu Ding again soon, Reid could not help but smile.

"It sounds like you two have a good relationship. But now that you're working for the Federal Government, aren't you and Gu Ding enemies? "Belinda was a little confused.

"I wouldn't say we're enemies, but we're rivals. Even though we're on different sides, he and I are friends. That won't change. " Reid and Gu Ding's views had always been the same. Even though they were on different sides, friends were still friends because friendship itself was pure and did not contain any impurities.

Belinda found it more and more difficult to understand. After knowing the relationship between Reid and Gu Ding, she did not ask any more questions and brought Reid all the way to the lower level.

"We've arrived at the sixth level. He's in Ring Eight of the arena."
