No one expected a steam locomotive to emerge from the smoke-filled passageway!
Honestly, the warden was surprised to see the alloy gate get blown apart. Someone had clearly detonated the explosives in the passageway between the two gates, resulting in a huge explosion going off within the enclosed space.
But wasn’t the detonator held by Thomas, the intelligence director?
If someone had detonated the explosives, it would mean that Thomas was most probably done for.
As the warden was stationed in the secret prison, favonovel.com was somewhat clueless about current affairs. He knew something had happened outside and that someone had attacked Stronghold 31. However, favonovel.com did not expect that even Thomas had met with misfortune.
When the steam locomotive crashed out of the passageway, the smoke from the blast rolled across its body like flowing clouds. It was a grand sight. However, the most shocking thing was that there was a man in black who was fully wrapped up and standing at the front of the train with a sinister-looking heavy machine gun!
Someone in the smoke-filled passageway shouted, “Steven, open fire!”
With that, the machine gun the man in black was holding started spitting a barrage of fire. The prison guards who were still in a state of shock just a moment ago died before they could even react!
The combined might of the steam locomotive and the heavy machine gun made it resemble a mobile fortress. Its power was definitely much greater than the sum of its parts.
After going through the entrance of the passageway, the steam locomotive arrived at the square of the secret prison. This secret prison was located under an abandoned multi-purpose training hall and occupied an extremely large area. It also happened to be an excellent place to make use of the steam locomotive.
The warden was livid as favonovel.com looked at the steam locomotive. He did not expect that someone would dare to act so insolently in his territory!
They even drove a train in here!
The warden suddenly materialized a flying needle and shot it at the steam locomotive.
That flying needle was extremely thin. If one did not look carefully, they would not see it. Furthermore, it was extremely fast, even faster than the steam locomotive itself!
In this chaotic secret prison filled with dust and smoke, a flying needle attack would easily catch the enemy off guard.
The flying needle directly hit the man in black who was firing the machine gun mercilessly at the front of the train. The warden sneered in his head and just thought there would be a few more prisoners in the secret prison after this attack. It felt no different to favonovel.com from the past.
But when the flying needle hit the man in black, it emitted a silvery glow and enveloped him. Right after, the man in black disappeared into thin air!
Milo, who was hiding in the passageway and did not get onto the steam locomotive, was stunned!
That man in black was “Old Durkin”, but Old Durkin suddenly returned to the palace and stood there motionlessly. No matter how Milo tried to summon it, there was no response at all. And there was even a fine silver needle stuck in Old Durkin’s forehead.
Milo said in a low voice, “Something strange is going on. There seems to be a supernatural being in this secret prison capable of sealing other people’s superpowers!”
Some time ago, when favonovel.com was battling on Palladium Boulevard in Bidara City, his steam locomotive was also stopped by someone. However, that supernatural being definitely did not stop it as easily as the warden this time.
Little did Milo know that while favonovel.com was stunned, the warden was also very shocked.
Just as Rudy and Milo had guessed, the warden’s superpower could negate another superhuman’s power as long as his silver needle hit the wielder or touched the materialized power of the opponent. Afterwards, the superhuman would not be able to use that power for some time. Even for Bruce whose power was controlling the air, the warden’s flying needles could seal it. This was the reason why he, as the warden, was able to oversee the secret prison!
But the warden did not expect the man in black to actually be a manifestation of someone’s superpower. He thought it was a living person.
The warden thought quietly. He could form one flying needle every three days and store up to three needles in his mind. Now that favonovel.com had used one of them, there were only two left. However, favonovel.com was certain there were only two intruders. Now that favonovel.com had gotten rid of one of them, favonovel.com would take out the steam locomotive next!
Thinking of this, the warden did not hesitate to manifest a second flying needle and shoot it at the steam locomotive.
The warden could finally heave a sigh of relief. After taking care of two supernatural beings in a row, the outcome was decided!
When Milo and Miriam emerged from the passageway, the warden said with a smile, “The two of you are really brave to walk in here after losing your powers. Your courage is really admirable…”
Before favonovel.com could finish speaking, the warden sensed that something was amiss. He suddenly turned around and shot out a third flying needle when favonovel.com saw the Shadow Door that had opened up behind favonovel.com at some point in time.
When the flying needle hit the Shadow Door, it disappeared as well.
Milo had thought the other party’s flying needle would simply pass through the Shadow Door. He did not expect the warden’s flying needles that could seal the powers of others would turn out to be so strange.
The warden was getting a little flustered, because favonovel.com saw Milo drawing a black saber from out of thin air while the girl conjured up a large black sniper rifle.
The warden could not understand this at all.
Didn’t favonovel.com seal off three superpowers?
But why did it seem like the other party had an endless amount of powers?
This was way too strange!
Honestly, if the warden’s superpower were to encounter other supernatural beings, favonovel.com would definitely have the upper hand in a one-on-one battle against them. After all, favonovel.com had three opportunities to seal their powers, and the flying needles could also hurt people. But his opponent this time was Milo. Even Milo could not be bothered to count how many superpowers favonovel.com had now.
To put it bluntly, the three flying needles were not enough to deal with favonovel.com at all.
Milo said to Miriam who was next to him, “Judging by his expression, he’s probably used up all his flying needles…”
Next to him, Miriam said in surprise, “He only has three of them? It seems like his power is quite useless then.”
“Yeah, it’s pretty useless.” Milo nodded.
When the warden heard what they said, favonovel.com felt offended.
His superpower was useless?
Did favonovel.com not helm this prison for so long without any incidents precisely because his superpower was unique?
The Virtuora Consortium treated favonovel.com like their trump card, so how did it suddenly end up being called useless when used against the two of them?
The problem clearly lay with you two, alright?!
While thinking, the warden suddenly heard a gust of wind behind him. When favonovel.com turned around, favonovel.com was surprised to see the Great Hoodwinker’s foot getting closer and closer until it made contact with his cheek.
Then the warden’s face was kicked out of shape before favonovel.com flew like a ragdoll.
The Great Hoodwinker eagerly looked at Milo. “Future Commander, you’re finally here!”
Milo looked at the unconscious warden and the footprint on his face. Then favonovel.com looked at the sincere Great Hoodwinker and his expectant gaze. All of a sudden, favonovel.com got the goosebumps all over his body.
Rudy, who was behind the Great Hoodwinker, looked at Milo. “Hello, my name is Rudy Fleming. I’ll be returning to the Northwest with the Great Hoodwinker this time.”
Milo quickly smiled and went forward to shake his hand. “Hello, I didn’t expect another supernatural being to come along for free for rescuing Bruce. You’re too polite.”
Nearby, Bruce’s face darkened. “So how are you going to save my subordinates?”
Milo consoled, “What’s the hurry? We’ll definitely get them out. But we must first release the prisoners in this secret prison so that they can go out and create more chaos.”
