The warden who guards the witches

In the afternoon, Veronica knocked on Aiden's office and briefly reported to Aiden about the trial of the riot squad's new equipment in daily training.

Then, she mentioned that she saw Ani Drake and two prisoners from cell 6 gathering together on the playground today.

"Sir, I think these people must be planning something again..." Veronica said with a gloomy face, "The two prisoners in cell 6 are pure scum. They have never been honest in prison, and now they are approaching this troublesome new prisoner..."

"Well, I know." Aiden nodded before Veronica finished speaking, "After all, prisoner 3677 was a person who escaped from the capital prison of the empire. It is impossible that the pirate in cell 6 has not heard of such a legendary case. They should go to her to take a ride... It's expected."

"Then should we take any measures?" Veronica asked.

Aiden thought for a moment: "Not for now."

"Is it okay? What if it turns into a situation similar to the riot organized by Prisoner 3340..." Veronica said worriedly. She still remembered the riot organized by Mirujinu vividly.

"It can't turn into a riot. After all, the ability of Prisoner 3677 can't be compared with that of Prisoner 3340." Aiden shook his head, "and their jailbreak method is quite special, it is destined not to turn into a riot."

Compared with Mirujinu, Anne Drake is actually a small character. Her real tricky part is her backer - the Red Shark Pirates who own the "Wordless Code".

Merifilia once told him that the power of the only authority can only be absorbed and fully utilized after the corresponding promotion ceremony.

Those so-called promotion ceremonies are not so much a necessary process for absorbing the only authority as a test of the only authority on those who try to get it.

For those who have not passed this "test", the only authority is just a tool without any inclination. The holder can use this tool according to the rules, but cannot manipulate it freely.

Ordinarily, when writing rules on the "Wordless Code", the rules will unconditionally take effect on all things within the limited range, including the writer himself, and no one can obtain privileges.

"What is the method of prisoner 3677's escape?" Veronica asked tentatively.

"Prisoner 3677's father is Neville Drake, a great pirate active in the imperial sea. This great pirate holds an ancient artifact in his hand. This artifact allows the holder to make rules by himself. This ancient artifact can directly affect people and things in the field and force the rules to take effect." Aiden explained to Veronica.

"Even the prison's defense measures can be affected?" Veronica widened her eyes.

"Yes, everything will become a pile of decorations." Aiden answered firmly.

"Then, the riot squad too..."

"According to the case of the Capital Prison, as long as he prohibits the attack with the ancient artifact, you will be deprived of consciousness and faint on the spot as long as you take action. Of course, the specific consequences may depend on the situation. But in any case, no one here can violate the rules specified by the artifact." Aiden said slowly.

"Does this kind of cheating really exist?" Veronica was stunned. She didn't know much about black magic, but this "prop" was obviously so powerful that even a layman like her would find it unreasonable.

"I'm sorry, but it's true. You may not believe it—"

"I believe it. I believe everything you say, sir." Veronica raised her hand to explain, "I'm just too surprised and sighed. But in this way, if they hold this kind of thing, wouldn't they be... invincible?"

"That's not the case. The rules that work with the help of the artifact will also affect them. In other words, if he stipulates that we can't attack them and restrict their freedom, they can't do the same to us." Aiden spread his hands, "You should be able to imagine what will happen."

Veronica imagined it for a while, and a picture came to her mind.

All the precautions from the core area to the gate of the Rose Iron Prison failed. The gates opened one by one. The riot police and prison guards could only watch with their hands hanging down, watching the pirates take prisoner 3677 out of the prison.

No, there will probably be many other prisoners leaving the prison together. If they can't attack each other, although there will be no casualties, the collective escape of prisoners in the core area will become a very serious accident for the prison.

At this time, Veronica realized something: "The prison break case in the Empire has not yet been investigated. How did you know so much information? Could it be that these also involve some secrets?"

"Well, you can say that." Because this explanation is more convenient, Aiden gave a positive answer.

"Then, why did you tell me specifically?" Veronica asked cautiously.

"I am more confident in you. Since you asked this question, I think it's okay to tell you." Aiden smiled.

After nearly half a year of getting along, he and Veronica have built a very reliable trust relationship. Even if it is top-secret information related to God's power, he revealed it to Veronica. Veronica would neither delve too deeply nor leak it to others, but just trust Aiden unconditionally, and Aiden would naturally trust her in the same way.

"That's it..." Veronica quickly controlled her facial expression, but felt that the corners of her mouth were raised involuntarily.

"Besides, I just want to hear if you have any ideas." Aiden continued, "I have been thinking about countermeasures these days. If we discuss it, we may be able to come up with more ideas."

"This..." Veronica thought for a moment, "Is there any way to disable that artifact? Like using the barrier in the prison to seal the magic?"

"Unfortunately, this is almost impossible to do." Aiden spread his hands.

"Then, seize the artifact from the pirates when they rob the prison? As long as you give the order, sir, I can try it." Veronica thought about it again, and then immediately rejected the proposal herself, " That’s not right, if the other party specifies a rule that cannot be snatched, then they are blind.”

"And I guess the person holding such an important thing is probably carrying it close to his body." Aiden added, "Snatching it directly from the person holding it, if it is considered an attack against the person holding it, I'm afraid It will also be banned by the artifact.”

"In that case, wouldn't it be possible to steal the artifact from the pirates in advance?" Veronica muttered casually.
