The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 756

Chapter 756

“Mr. Katz once said that since people can enter a secret room, there must be a door that opens from the outside.

“Unless the lock is situated externally, there is a possibility that it can be opened from within.

“In a large prison, escape routes may manifest through the intricate network of sewers and pipelines.

“Rei, calin down. You can definitely do it!”

Reign drew in a deep breath, endeavoring to steady her racing thoughts and regain composure. She meticulously surveyed her surroundings, seeking to discern every detail.

After searching for a long time, she finally found the entrance to the sewer.

It was a round iron lid with many holes on it.

Reign inhaled deeply before inserting her finger into the opening, intending to lift the lid.

Unfortunately, she failed.

No matter how she struggled, that darn lid wouldn’t budge. So, she thought for a moment and grabbed a ruler to measure the hole’s size.

The lid was 12 inches feet deep.

This iron lid was ridiculously heavy. Ordinary people could not lift it at all.

Additionally, there was nothing to grasp inside the holes.

Women as defenseless as them had no means to move it.

“And the ventilation ducts.”

Reign abandoned the idea of removing the iron cover and instead turned her attention to the cave ceiling, searching for ventilation ducts.

Unfortunately, Bernard had hidden all the ventilation ducts extremely well. Despite Reign’s diligent efforts and thorough search, she couldn’t find any traces of them.

She searched every corner of the ceiling but to no avail.

“Give up. I’ve been here for three years. But I’ve never seen any of them,” the old man said.

He slumped to the ground, his eyes filled with despair.

It was almost impossible to find a way out.

Having ascertained that the door was firmly sealed shut, he resigned himself to the inevitable death.

“No, we’ll definitely find it,” Reign said in a deep voice.

Embodying her role as a CEO, she staunchly refused to yield, persisting unwaveringly even amidst the most dire circumstances.

Even if it was merely a flicker of hope, Reign would seize it firmly!

If there was no hope, she would forge it.

With unwavering determination, she held steadfast, refusing to surrender until the very last moment.

Reign rose to her feet and meandered around, meticulously observing her surroundings.

Ultimately, she arrived at the pool of blood.

In the blood pool, the piranhas were tightly packed and had seemingly reawakened as they ceaselessly swam within the crimson depths.

The mere glimpse of the piranhas‘ fangs caused her hair to stand on end.

“Hey, what’s catching your eye in that blood pool, Miss? There isn’t anything there except these hungry piranhas,” the old man remarked.
