Chapter 2187: Golden River

The rumbling within Ming He Death Prison continued until dawn finally came to an end!
The already somewhat dilapidated Ming He Death Prison had been battered even worse!
Many prison blocks had suffered, and some cells had even lost their ceilings, forcing the prisoners to huddle in corners, trembling!
Early the next morning, when the Netherworld Race engineering team arrived, they were completely stunned!
They stood there petrified on the spot, the tools they were holding clattering to the ground!
Σ(°△°|||)
How the hell does it look more broken the more they repair it?
The corridors and walls were full of pits and huge holes, and there were even plenty of imprints of Jiu Lan and Jiangnan's tortured faces!
That could be understood, but explain to me the large cross-shaped hole in the wall — how was that made?
What else could be done? Who's going to fix a broken prison? We'll fix it!
...

In Jiangnan's Golden House cell, Black Steel was crouched in a 90-degree corner, sleeping beautifully all night, feeling warm and cozy!
No matter how violent the outside storm, Black Steel could still sleep soundly; the corner was his eternal home!
Just as he woke up, he heard a bang as the cell door was kicked open!
Black Steel's eyes widened, and he stared in terror at the two figures in the doorway!
There stood Jiu Lan, her whole body swollen, covered in bruises, dark circles around her eyes, clothes torn, hair a mess!
(#●)3(˂̶́#)
Her nose bridge was broken, and she was missing a front tooth!
Her whole body was puffy, and even more horrifying, Black Steel noticed there were quite a few bite marks on Jiu Lan's body — on her arms, shoulders, and even her thighs...
One of her horns was broken!
Black Steel was shocked. What the hell happened? Was it really that intense last night?
Jiu Lan limped into the room, dragging a bloody mess behind her!
A trail of blood stains was left on the floor!
It was Jiangnan, who had been beaten unconscious and was now completely out of it, sleeping...
Black Steel swallowed hard. It... it looked like Boss Nan Shen was in even worse shape than Jiu Lan?
Jiu Lan tossed Jiangnan onto the bed, pulled out a portable terminal to take the routine photo, but this time she didn't dare include herself in the shot!
Too embarrassing!
Then she turned to look at Black Steel.
Black Steel shuddered and quickly stood at attention, saluting!
∠(`皿´●) "Sister Jiu Lan! At your service anytime!"
Jiu Lan wiped the blood off her face: "Take care of him. If he wakes up and still isn't quite right mentally, call me anytime..."
As she spoke, she limped out of the room, muttering under her breath!
(̿▀̿益▀̿̿(#) "Damn Jiangnan, can't beat me so he bites, and bites anywhere! Bastard! Better he doesn't remember!"
While muttering, she pulled open her collar to check, her face darkening even more...
Yesterday's Jiangnan was truly insane to the extreme, completely different from before. His attacks were like a storm, giving no chance to breathe!
It seemed no matter how many times he was knocked down, he could stand up unscathed and counterattack with even greater ferocity!
But Jiu Lan wasn't without progress either. At least her Netherworld Eight Forms had successfully reached the Tianxiu level!
However, Black Steel's expression was strange. Were those two really fighting last night?
Or were they doing something weird?
He turned to look at Jiangnan. His wounds were healing rapidly, and in no time, he was back to normal!
It was as if he had never been injured, but he still hadn't woken up. He was smacking his lips, sleeping soundly...
...

The prisoners had endured a night of battle baptism. In the morning, seeing Ming He Death Prison looking like a battlefield ruin, they were also stunned!
Many cells had been blown open from all sides. Last night's battle was really too intense!
But Ta Luo and the others couldn't sit still. The riot was over, and it had been a few days. It was time to go down to the river and scoop crystals!
Why wasn't the prison organizing it anymore? Wasn't this delaying their body training?
And without crystals, they couldn't spend at Nan Shen's shop!
"Down the river! Scoop crystals! Down the river! Scoop crystals!"
Early in the morning, the prisoners began to collectively petition and shout!
But with Ming He Death Prison destroyed like this, how could the guards have the mood to organize a river trip?
Yet the prisoners wouldn't let it go, and they came out of the broken cells one after another!
Ta Luo let out a roar:
٩(゚益゚(゚口゚)˘﹃˘)~ZZZ "Let's go! Find Brother Chacha and ask him to open the Wave-Breaking Plaza for us!"
So the prisoners surged like a tide toward Bing Chacha's room!
But halfway there, they noticed something wrong. There was an unusually conspicuous trail of blood on the floor!
Very long, stretching from the female prison area all the way to Bing Chacha's door!
The prisoners were confused — what was this?
But they didn't care and started banging on the door!
"Brother Chacha? We want to go down the river for volunteer labor. Can you organize it?"
"That's right, that's right. As deputy warden, why aren't you doing your job? Where's your sense of duty? If you keep slacking off like this, it's not going to work!"
"Isn't that the truth? Where's your ambition? If you work three days and fish for two like this, how are you going to get a promotion and raise? Did you hit this month's KPI?"
The prisoners chattered endlessly, insisting on going down the river. Bing Chacha, who had passed out at the door in his room, was woken up by the noise!
His whole body was swollen three times larger. As soon as he woke up, he spat out a large mouthful of black blood!
(#ᵒ̶̶̷̀)ཀ(˂̶́#)...
God damn river crystal scooping! Why are you all more eager than me?
Last night, I was almost beaten to death! I barely crawled back to my room!
And now I have to organize you to scoop crystals?
(#ᵒ̶̶̷̀)益(˂̶́#) "Scoop my ass! Day off today!"
But the prisoners wouldn't have it!
٩(ˊ益ˋ*)و "We don't want a day off! We want to work! We want volunteer labor!"
Half-Blood Sonar was crazily banging on the door, yelling at the top of his lungs!
(♫Ò口Ó)۶ "Brother Chacha, open the door! Don't hide inside and not open the door! I know you're home!"
Bing Chacha's forehead veins bulged. Can't I rest for a while?
He struggled to get up and open the door!
(#ᵒ̶̶̷̀)口(˂̶́#) "Alright, alright! Scoop! Damn it, we'll go down the river, okay?"
But at that moment, the prisoners all froze, staring at Bing Chacha, who was swollen like a pig's head from the beating, and collectively gasped!
Sonar's mouth twitched: (♫゚ロ゚) "Brother Chacha, did you sleep well last night? I feel like you've gotten a bit... inflated?"
Wang Youzhi: (。•᷄◡•᷅) "You can drop the 'feel like'."
Chong Feiyu was really ruthless last night, huh? That was a real beating!
Bing Chacha's face darkened even more: "Great! Couldn't be better!"
With that, he limped off to lead the prisoners to open the Wave-Breaking Plaza. He didn't even need to organize much; the prisoners were already familiar with the routine!
At the Other Shore Bridge, the prisoners were about to go down the river when they looked down and were stunned!
Σ(ଵ△ଵ|||) "Whoa? The river's color looks a bit off today?"
They even rubbed their eyes to make sure they weren't seeing things!
The original river was silver-gray, but today it was golden yellow!
Not just a small area, but a channel several light-years wide was all dyed gold!
Like a flowing golden river!
(*ж*(¬益¬(ヾ)˘﹃˘)
"Wow, that smell?"
Ta Luo wrinkled his face in disgust and plugged all six of his nostrils!
Even Bing Chacha noticed something wrong!
The last time the prisoners had their collective eruption in the river, it wasn't this bad, was it?
And this smell...
It kind of smelled like the warden, didn't it?
Suddenly, Bing Chacha realized something, recalling that the warden had mentioned something about making the Styx Koi poop!
Could it be...
The next moment, an incomparably brilliant golden light blazed from the center of the river!
Brighter than a thousand supernovae, blinding everyone!
"Boom!"
A towering splash erupted from the river surface! A gigantic, multi-colored bald-headed Koi leaped out of the river!
It was as if a thousand suns had risen above the River Styx at the same time!
The Koi's size was beyond words!
Compared to it, the Ming He Death Star floating on the river was as small as a speck of dust!
"Thump!"
The leaping Koi crashed heavily back into the river, stirring up monstrous waves!
The height of the waves even surpassed the Ming He Death Star, charging toward it with unstoppable force!
Bing Chacha: !!!
Damn! Forget the Koi — just the wave alone would obliterate the Death Star!
For a creature of that level, destroying a planet was that simple!
"What are you standing there for? Get back! Do you all want to die?"
The prisoners' faces turned white with fear, screaming as they ran back toward the Wave-Breaking Plaza!
Could there really be such a monstrous creature in the starry sky?
What the hell was that?
Many were hearing about it for the first time, seeing it for the first time!
Wang Youzhi, however, had bright eyes and watched the giant bald-headed multi-colored Koi with great interest!
(͡°ก͡°)✧ "Oh? That stupid fish is still around? I remember it wasn't this big before? And its head didn't glow..."
∑(°口°๑) "Sigh! That kid Jiangnan didn't give it some Dali, did he?"
Seeing Wang Youzhi still watching the spectacle, Ta Luo scooped him up and ran!
"Still watching? You'll die if you keep watching!"
Meanwhile, Bing Chacha roared and charged forward!
"Domain Expansion•Death Millstone!"
In an instant, endless netherworld energy gathered in the starry sky, forming two enormous death millstones!
The millstones were larger than the Ming He Death Star itself. Outside, Bing Chacha could unleash his full domain without restraint!
His domain could even grind planets, easily protecting the Death Star!
But it was useless against the towering waves raised by the Styx Koi!
His little millstones were as fragile as paper!
The moment they made contact, they shattered. Bing Chacha spat blood, and his existing injuries nearly killed him!
The boundless netherworld wave wall came crashing toward the Death Star with ferocity!
The Death Star shook violently. This wave would definitely reduce the planet to nothing!
But at that moment, an overwhelming aura erupted from within the Death Star, and spiritual power surged!
The raging waves of the river were instantly flattened, as smooth as a mirror!
Even the river's flow stopped!
From extreme motion to extreme stillness in an instant!
But that didn't stop the Styx Koi. The dazzling light beneath the river surface approached the Death Star rapidly!
The impossibly massive Koi, from below at an angle, with its tail thrashing, charged headfirst toward the Death Star...
