Legendary God of Harem In the Modern World

Chapter 219: Enemies to Friends

Seeing Ryan's group charging mercilessly, the other guard immediately ran and tried to close the door leading to the prison cell.

But before the door could close, Clyde's eyes turned cold and he walked like a ghost. The sword managed to block the door before it was completely closed, and now the guard was helpless.

After killing the guard, the information gathering process began. They headed straight to the main office to find out where their men were.

After eliminating the barriers that stood in their way, they arrived at the office. And after finding the location of his subordinate's cell, Ryan took Clyde, Yodai and Naomi with him.

Along the way, guards armed with assault rifles kept their way. Unfortunately, their tragic screams were really brief, Clyde did not spare any of them and just cut off their heads.

"Really boring..." Clyde shook his head and Naomi couldn't stop sighing. This guy just cut down a helicopter flying through the air and was still feeling bored? But she agreed with him though, she wished there were more challenges in breaking into this prison.

"You haven't had any worthy opponents lately?" Ryan said, smiling.

"You suddenly disappeared, who else really deserves to be my opponent?" Clyde answered.

"Then, when our base was taken over, why didn't you kill the Eclipse?" Ryan asked.

"Such a weak person is not worthy of slashing, I can kill him in 10 seconds," Clyde said with a serious face. On the other hand, the younger Yodai suddenly coughed and said, "I can do it in 8 seconds!"

"Hah? You look down on me, kid?" Clyde frowned, his swords ready to collide at any time.

"We compete for three hours anytime of the day and there is no winner among us yet," Yodai replied in a loud voice. "I also can't wait to beat you, you damn geezer!"

Ryan immediately intervened, and at this time, Naomi said, "The Eclipse is nothing, but Golge is the problem."

Hearing that name, Ryan became speechless and his eyes filled with hatred.

They could feel a murderous aura slowly enveloping Ryan as the guy fell silent. But Clyde opened his voice, "That day, Eclipse brought a lot of martial arts experts."

"Oh?" Ryan regained his composure. The people who deserved to be called martial arts experts by Clyde were really few, if he was to mention this then those people were very strong. 

Clyde himself was equal to Ryan but since he had a mysterious power in his body, Clyde was nothing in his eyes. Ryan himself felt that Clyde would be at the top of the Gods list, and maybe he was the candidate for the 12 Aesirs if anyone of that rank died.

What Ryan didn't manage to catch was probably why the Eclipse was able to move all those high ranking martial artists. Indeed, Eclipse was one of the Gods list but mobilizing all martial arts experts with strength equal to Clyde was another matter.

Ryan was probably still focused on rescuing his comrades. After successfully slaughtering to open a path, Ryan and his three subordinates headed for the depths.

They had easily breached the first layer of the prison the entrance gate said to have tanks, fully armed guard towers and a tight patrol team. 

The second layer was the inner part of this prison and the third layer was the deepest part. In other words, the third layer was an underground prison managed by a special team.

In the underground part of this Shinra prison, the prisoners held in that place were even more terrifying than those above. Ryan's subordinates were in this underground section.

Now, Ryan and his subordinates walked in the cell section of the general prison and immediately headed for the entrance to the underground section.

At this time, the prisoners saw Ryan's entourage leisurely walking past them. One by one, they started asking Ryan for help.

"Please let me go!" Shouted the toothless elder.

"Hey boss, I'll pay you whatever you want! Get me out quickly!" Shouted the prisoner with a body covered in tattoos.

All the prisoners scream at him, begging to be released. In an instant, the prison became noisy.

"Wolf, do you have enough troops?" Ryan looked at all the prisoners who shouted his name.

The Wolf, being one of the 5 generals of his army, was a very quiet man. His character really resembled a wolf. He was not good at communication and quiet, but he would turn into cruel and barbaric when he fought. He would carry out Ryan's orders without question.

"Not enough," The Wolf's answer was always short and clear. The battle for the underground palace was fierce. The attack by Eclipse was so sudden and resulted in heavy casualties on both sides. Of these, the army he led suffered the most. Hence, his army had almost no people left.

Ryan understood the character of his subordinate so he was the one who took the initiative to ask questions.

"What if these prisoners become your men?" Ryan said with a smile. "You you can kill the incompetent ones."

The Wolf seemed silent and looked at the prisoners then nodded. "Okay."

His army was just as calm and as cruel as him, the leader. No matter how wild or unfaithful these prisoners were, the Wolf had his own methods of turning them into loyal warriors ready to sacrifice their lives.

Ryan nodded and walked forward.

Not long after, they arrived at the stairs leading to the underground passage. What stood in their way now was a closed door.

This door was big and stood enormously, almost impossible to break through.

Inside that door, lights flashed brightly, making the underground as bright as day. Many detainees were held in this place, all of whom appeared to be tied to their feet and hands. If looked closer, it looked like this underground place was a torture chamber.

And all the prisoners were members of Nergal's  army!

Without a doubt, this torture chamber only had Ryan's soldiers inside. Everyone here was injured and even some of them were bleeding profusely. Their wounds received absolutely no treatment.

At the very bottom was a woman with pale skin looking very fragile. She was completely detached and alone in her pathetic prison cell.

Scarlett was one of the crownless kings of Nergal's army. Or in this case, a crownless queen.

Scarlett herself was not a martial artist like Clyde or Yodai. Instead, she was just an ordinary person. However, as one of the crownless kings, her status was as high as Yodai and Clyde. It could be said that she specialized in intelligence!

In previous battles, Scarlett had provided input and advice on their strategy, and it was what helped Ryan's troops defeat their strong opponents. By the time they reached the top and established the underground palace, Scarlett was the leader in Ryan's absence.

It could be said that she was Ryan's right hand man, what she said would be considered as commandment from Nergal himself! 

Of the three crownless kings, Ryan valued Scarlett the most. Clyde did have tremendous strength but that person only cared about his sword and was very lazy. Yodai might be the one he trained from zero, but his congenital illness was really troublesome and required a lot of rest. Even though Ryan had handled his disease, it could not completely disappear.

Therefore, Scarlett was specially treated by the Eclipse.

Eclipse wanted Scarlett to give up and join him. With Scarlett's help, conquering the world wouldn't be mere figment. The Eclipse had tried to captivate her heart, trying to convince her to leave Ryan's side. However, all of that was useless.

Scarlett did not want to speak or accept the offer. Feeling so angry, Eclipse threw Scarlett into this sunless prison to rethink his offer. In this place, she would see her subordinates being tortured to death.

Eclipse also promised to release Scarlett's underlings if she wanted to be his.

However, Scarlett was completely uninterested and ignored him from the start. This woman believed that Ryan would come back for them.

It was not only Scarlett who had this kind of thinking, almost all of the detained subordinates had similar thoughts. In their hearts, Ryan was truly their savior. They believed that Ryan would save them even if the whole world was their opponent.

But their fate was different from Scarlett's, they had to survive the torment until help arrived.

"Hahaha so this is who they called as one of the five generals from the invincible Nergal's army? He's already cowering from just getting a whip!" A burly man carrying the whip spat at Levi, one of the five generals. Levi was tied to a pillar shirtless, his back covered in blood from the whip.

Levi didn't speak at all, the whip that hit his back was unable to make him let out even the slightest sound. However, the whip had thorns so each lash would take a piece of meat.
