After placing the unconscious Brandon in a cell on the seventh floor, the two prison guards left and walked out.
One of the prison guards gloated as he walked, "Heh, a new S-class superhuman has arrived. I want to see if Barr, George, and Dan can still live as comfortably as they used to."
Another prison guard said, "They very well might. I read this Brandon guy's file. He has been a model student since he was young. He might not get into a dispute with those three guys."
The first prison guard who spoke sneered, "Humph, he's an S-class superhuman. Even if he doesn't want to get into a conflict, will the other three guys leave him alone?"
"Besides, young people are aggressive. Otherwise, he wouldn't have destroyed half of Al City."
"Criminals are criminals. There's nothing good about them!"
"I can't wait for them to make a big fuss and be sliced up by Mr. Bob in the end."
The two prison guards walked further and further away, and their conversation became indistinguishable.
On the other hand, the commotion caused by the arrival of an S-class superhuman prisoner was obviously not going to rest so easily.
When the door of Brandon's cell was closed, countless prisoners heaved a sigh of relief, and then...
The discussions broke out even louder than before.
The first newcomer in three years.
An S-class superhuman.
With such a mysterious new addition, the discussion heated up.
At this moment, a prisoner suddenly ran out from outside the free activity area and exclaimed, "I have more details of that new...prisoner!"
As soon as he said that, the surrounding prisoners immediately swarmed over like bees.
"Will, what news did you get? Tell us quickly!"
Will lowered his voice and said, "His name is Brandon Hayes. His strength is S-class, and his race is unknown. He might be a vampire or a werewolf."
"He was caught because he was fighting with other S-class superhumans. The aftermath of the battle almost destroyed half of Al City."
"Maybe it was because he was exhausted. In the end, the police in Al City arrested him at the battle scene. He was unconscious at the time."
The others were enlightened.
There were three S-class superhumans in this prison. However, when they were caught, they were not S-class superhumans yet. Instead, they slowly became stronger in the escape game after they entered this prison.
"These aren't the key points. The key point is..."
Will's sudden words piqued everyone's interest.
Even the powerful prisoners who didn't come over couldn't help but perk up their ears.
Seeing that he had piqued everyone's interest, Will said, "That Brandon guy just turned 18 today!"
"What?!"
"That's impossible!"
"..."
Everyone's response was explosive!
"I've never heard of an 18-year-old S-class superhuman in my life!"
"It's really hard to imagine!"
"Although the escape game is already incredible enough, I still can't accept the existence of an 18-year-old S-class superhuman!"
After reluctantly accepting the fact that he was an 18-year-old S-class superhuman, someone said, "Such a young S-class superhuman will definitely become stronger quickly in the escape game. At that point, I'm afraid that the three lords of our Senkam Special Prison..."
Though he didn't finish his sentence, everyone understood what he meant.
Someone lowered his voice and said, "Those three lords will definitely suppress Brandon."
Immediately, someone snickered and said, "How? An 18-year-old S-class superhuman would be as outstanding as them in the escape game. The speed at which he'd become stronger would be unimaginable. Perhaps...he could even break through S-class."
"Break through S-class?! That's utterly unheard of!"
"In the future...besides the 'butcher', will there be a Lord Brandon above us?"
"In this situation, even those three lords will have to put down their pride and join forces."
At this point in the conversation, everyone immediately fell silent and stopped discussing.
The sun slowly set in the west. When the night sky was filled with stars, Senkam Special Prison was completely quiet. Meanwhile, Brandon, the main character that everyone was discussing during the day, woke up.
"Beep... beep... beep..."
"Where is this?"
Brandon was stunned.
He was inside a white room, with a two-meter wide soft bed. The environment was as clean as a five-star hotel. However, the tightly shut alloy door and the small square window above clearly told him that this was not a hotel, but a prison.
What was going on?!
He had arrived in an unfamiliar environment inexplicably. He began to recall what he had done after he got drunk yesterday.
In the next second, he came to a shocking conclusion.
'I've transmigrated!'
He didn't know whether it was a coincidence or not, but this body was the same as him. They had the same name and the same age. He'd just turned 18 today, so went out drinking all night, but he didn't expect to wake up in a different world!
Other than that, his memories seemed to be covered in smog, making it hard to see clearly.
Damn it!
Brandon cursed in his heart. He was originally a good university student, but when he woke up, he had become a prisoner.
Most people would have broken down if this happened to them.
But Brandon, who had grown up with a big heart, could only curse a few times in his heart before he helplessly accepted it.
It was useless to complain. The most important thing now was to figure out the situation.
The prison was not a good place!
Brandon had watched many movies and TV series, so he knew that a newcomer like him would be teased by the 'seniors'. He might just be beaten up, or he might be totally crippled.
"Beep...beep...beep..."
"What is that sound?!"
Brandon frowned. He remembered hearing this sound when he had just woken up.
Was it the radio?
No!
This noise seemed to come directly from his brain, not from his ears.
Brandon began to search for the source of the noise.
Being able to hear an unknown noise made his heart tremble.
Nevertheless, it took him a few minutes to discover the source of the voice. It was indeed not from elsewhere in the cell but from his body!
There was a string of white numbers on his arm, and it was pulsing non-stop!
00:09:32!
00:09:31!
...
"What is this? A countdown?" Brandon asked in puzzlement.
Suddenly, his memories began to clear up, allowing him to understand the meaning of this 'countdown'.
An escape game!
When everyone in this world reached adulthood at the age of 18, they would enter an escape game. The winner would receive survival points, and the survival points could be exchanged for anything.
The loser would receive severe punishment.
As for what the punishment was, the relevant memories were blurred again.
"Escape game...survival points...lifespan..."
Brandon took a deep breath and tried his best to accept the existence of the escape game. Even something as inconceivable as transmigration had happened, so the escape game didn't seem like much.
Perhaps, I could use the escape game to make myself stronger.
In that case, I would have the ability to defend myself against the seniors' 'welcome ceremony' tomorrow.
He wouldn't allow himself to be bullied.
Time passed by slowly.
Brandon stared at the countdown on his arm.
00:00:03!
00:00:02!
00:00:01!
00:00:00!
Just as the timer hit zero, a sentence rang out in Brandon's mind.
[Welcome to the escape game!]
