"Deal with a living prisoner?"

"Are there any living prisoners in the Mist Mountain Prison?"

Lin Qi was taken aback when he heard this and looked at Xie Feina in surprise.

According to what Diroya, the City Lord of Chasing Light City, had said, the Mist Mountain Prison had been around for a very long time. Normally, the entire prison should be devoid of any living beings, since most of the prisoners detained were at the Blood Coagulation Realm, making it impossible for them to live that long. Even those above Blood Coagulation couldn't possibly survive.

Although the lifespans of different species vary significantly—like the Long-Eared Race, who are rumored to live for five hundred years once they reach the Blood Coagulation Realm, making them one of the longest-living species among all races—even the Human Race, reaching the Blood Coagulation Realm, can live up to two hundred years, and some short-lived races can reach one hundred twenty years.

With the Mist Mountain Prison having existed for over ten thousand years, no species could possibly live that long, let alone those who were imprisoned.

If such an existence truly did exist, he couldn't even imagine how terrifying such a creature would be.

"That prisoner can't really be considered alive either." Xie Feina thought for a moment before explaining, "The prisoner is a robot who, before dying, uploaded their consciousness and memories entirely into a guard robot. Besides, he's not the only prisoner like that in the Lower Level Area; all prisoners in the Lower Level Area have done so."

"Doesn't that mean the entire Lower Level Area of the prison is filled with these prisoner robots possessing complete consciousness and memories?" Lin Qi's eyes lit up with excitement upon hearing this.

Even though he understood from Xie Feina's words that these prisoners were indeed dead, they had lived on as mechanical beings.

The Lower Level Area of the prison is likely filled with beings above the Blood Coagulation Realm, and these mechanical entities are absolute treasures. If you could capture them or extract their informational data, you could directly obtain that civilization's training techniques, or even their technology.

Seeing Lin Qi's thoughts, Xie Feina smiled and said, "That's right. If there's anything of the highest value in the Lower Level Area, it's these imprisoned prisoners. Capturing just one can yield significant rewards. However, does Hall Master Lin know how many we've captured after all the Four Domains' major forces have entered?"

"Is the number very small?" Lin Qi inquired curiously.

"Not very small, but none at all—not a single one." Xie Feina chuckled, "We don't know what kind of metal those guard robots are made of. Even a Tier Three Weapon can't scratch them. Each one possesses the strength and speed of the Blood Coagulation Realm, not to mention the skills of the prisoners. Any one of them can easily overpower several super talents, and since they usually act in groups, we have no way to counter them. Just surviving is already quite fortunate."

"If that's the case, even if we team up, how can we deal with them?" Lin Qi understood the difficult aspects of dealing with these prisoners after hearing this.

They have indestructible bodies, advanced skills, and their numbers are overwhelming—it's practically unsolvable.

"Through repeated exploration by our Domain City, we've developed some methods to handle these prisoners," Xie Feina explained. "These prisoners are robots, and once their energy is depleted, they become immobile. As long as we can entangle one and drain its energy, it can be captured."

"But among the prisoners in the Lower Level Area, there are also varying degrees of power. Powerful prisoners can wipe out our entire team if we attack together, whereas weaker prisoners can be restrained by a few of our super talents working together, offering a chance to take them down. However, the information the weaker prisoners hold is limited, and the skills they possess are weak, making it not worthwhile to take the risk of capturing them."

"In our last team exploration, we discovered a prisoner with decent strength, but our team alone couldn't be confident in capturing it, which is why we wanted to collaborate with Hall Master Lin. If we're successful, I can personally guarantee that Earth Star Pharmaceuticals' experts at the Blood Coagulation Realm will not harass Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall in the future."

Regarding the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, she didn't initially plan to team up, especially since they had only taken down two super talents from Earth Star Pharmaceuticals who were pushed to that level through drugs. This collaboration was far less valuable than working with other Domain City teams, which would demand a significant price.

However, upon learning that the super talent Bert from Earth Star Pharmaceuticals died in Red Moon Town, possibly at the hands of Hall Master Lin Qi, she changed her mind.

Rumor has it that Hall Master Lin Qi is only at the Bone Forging Realm, but if someone at the Bone Forging Realm can kill a super talent like Bert at the Blood Coagulation Realm, such strength is rare even among top-level teams. His personal strength might even rank in the top twenty within the Mist Mountain Prison. When combined with Black Obsidian's team, they would not be much inferior to those top-tier teams.

This was the reason she came in person to confirm whether Lin Qi was really at the Bone Forging Realm.

If he wasn't at the Bone Forging Realm, it would have been a wasted trip; if he was, then they could collaborate.

Fortunately, Hall Master Lin Qi did not disappoint her. Although she couldn't confirm his Qi and blood level, her intuition was sure it was the Bone Forging Realm.

"Ensuring that Earth's Star Pharmaceuticals' Blood Coagulation Realm experts won't harass us in the future is unnecessary." Lin Qi considered this and said to Xie Feina, "I hope we can exchange this for other conditions."

"Other conditions?" Xie Feina was slightly surprised. "I wonder what conditions you have in mind? If it's the prisoner's skill information, I must apologize, as our Domain City will never share the skills from the Mist Mountain Prison with others. Besides that, other conditions are negotiable."
