Magic Pill

Meanwhile, the infirmary.
The prison doctor was busy in the examination room, she hadn't had a good rest in the past two days.
From the night of the day before yesterday, to this afternoon, the prison's core area had twice erupted with unexplained collective illnesses, with the inmates' collective temperatures rising, but no other symptoms could be detected.
Subsequently, two underage inmates were injured when they tried to attack other inmates and were killed in return, and had to come here to recuperate.
Almost simultaneously, a few more suspected d**g addicts were sent to the infirmary for examination, almost to the point of distraction for her, who happened to be on duty today.
The outside beds were now almost full of inmates, and as a matter of course, there were a fair number of guards and riot squad members guarding the rooms, almost crowding the entire infirmary.
Fortunately, the warden had acted fairly quickly, and had immediately identified the source of the medicines - it was just a shame that they, too, had to be temporarily handed over to her for testing.
"I'll be sure to apply for a raise after this wave lasts through." She silently made up her mind in her heart.
While thinking so, she reached out and pulled out a test tube from the warm water tank - half an hour ago, she added some medicines to the testing reagent, and the reaction results should have come out by now.
The liquid in the test tube showed a red fluorescence.
"Magic reaction?" The prison doctor was stunned on the spot.
Medicines that had a magical reaction usually came from materials on powerful magical creatures.
The medicines configured from these materials were the so-called magic medicines.
Magic medicines, like black magic, were strictly regulated in this world. Very few people would touch magic potions, except for witches who were wanted by the Heresy Judgement Bureau.
The prison doctor suddenly felt a coolness running through his back, this batch of drugs, were not ordinary prohibited drugs!
In terms of danger, compared to magic potions rich in magic power, those ordinary drugs with addictive properties were nothing at all.
There were quite a few powerful magical girls in the Rose Iron Prison who were unable to use their original power because their magic power was sealed by the prison's boundary.
These magical girls, if they obtained some magic medicines that could temporarily boost their magic power, would be able to temporarily restore their power and break through the shelter in this prison.
If the medicines circulating in the prison were not just addictive drugs, but also this kind of magic medicine ......
Then I'm afraid that the purpose of the person who introduced these medicines into the prison is not just as simple as wanting to become the head of the medicines here.
If they let some red alert level criminals regain their power in the prison, they are capable of subverting this prison!
This matter had to be reported to the warden immediately!
Realising this, the prison doctor immediately stood up, ready to compile a report for someone to hand over to the warden.
At this time, a prison guard pushed open the door of the examination room, "Doctor, a prisoner fell and cracked his head, come and take a look!"
"If it's just a skin wound let her sit there for a while, I have more important matters at hand!" The prison doctor waved his hand impatiently.
"What more important things?" The prison guard asked with a blink.
The prison doctor was just about to reply when someone in the infirmary hall suddenly shouted at the top of his voice, "NOW!"
The guards and the prison doctor who came in were stunned for a moment - it was the inmate who had just been sent here, who had suddenly launched into a fit of nerves for some reason.
"What are you doing? Want to die!?" The prison guard instantly turned his head to angrily rebuke that prisoner.
However, at the next moment, the other prisoners who heard that prisoner's voice suddenly climbed up from their beds and collectively attacked the guards present, including prisoners 3361 and 3362, the pair of Twin Slayers sent in by Meiryukinu.
The demonic claws attached to each of their small arms swelled up in a flash, actually holding up the shackles that the Heresy Judgement Bureau had put on them until they snapped.
Merukino had unsealed the shackles for them a long time ago, allowing them to hide until now, just to turn on the prison guards at this time.
Only to see them lunge out like carnivores and pounce on the two prison guards closest to them.
Prisoner 3361, the older sister of the twins, was half a beat slower to react in time by her opponent because she had been kicked in the ribs by Ivantha.
That prison guard reflexively sidestepped and managed to dodge the demonic claws swung by the other.
But the other prison guard wasn't so lucky - although he subconsciously dodged, he was still cut by the twin middle sister's claws on his arm, and just as he was about to draw his g*n to counterattack, he realised that the muscles of his entire arm were so stiff that he couldn't move.
He subconsciously swept a glance at his right hand, and immediately exclaimed in shock - his right hand had turned into grey-black stone, and the symptoms of petrification were still spreading a little bit towards his shoulder.
The demonic claws grafted onto those twin wrists had a curse attached to them that could gradually petrify a creature's flesh and blood.
The infirmary was thrown into chaos on the spot, as guards and inmates mingled.
"Don't you come out, hurry up and call someone!!!"
The prison guard who had just brought the prisoners in slammed the door of the examination room shut, locking the prison doctor in the examination room while he himself stepped across to guard the doorway.
He knew very well that the doctor had no weapon on him, and if he was caught in the melee he would surely only die.
The prison doctor stood in the examination room, listening to the shouting and fighting outside.
Two seconds later she snapped to attention and reached out to press the red button set against the wall.
In an instant, the alarm bells at the infirmary entrance rang loudly, quickly spreading throughout the entire prison.
In room twelve of the core, the witch Daley sat on the edge of her bed, gently caressing the bottle in her hand.
A few hours ago, the Blood Prince Ophelia and the prisoner 3340 had found her in the reading room of the library and handed this medicine bottle over to her.
"In here, it contains a magic potion that can temporarily restore your magic power."
"The demonic contract on you, I can help you remove it."
"We are going to act this night, kill that warden, and leave this prison."
"Join us if you want to regain your freedom, or, continue to wear the collar and be a dog in this prison."
......
The other offered a rather tempting deal.
She could feel now that the demonic contract, imposed by Aiden, which was a constant threat to her life, was gone.
When Ophelia had first offered her co-operation to leave the prison, she hadn't taken it seriously.
But now it seemed that the conditions given by the other party were the real deal.
Then this magic potion, I'm afraid it wouldn't be fake either.
In that case, there would only be one choice for her.
And at this time in room eight, the Blood Prince Ophelia was also sitting on the bed, pinching the exact same pill bottle in her hand, straining her ears and waiting for the right moment.
Finally at last, the distant alarm bell from somewhere in the prison reached this cell block.
The prison guards monitoring the duty room in the core area also heard the alarm bell and perked up their ears suspiciously.
Room 13, under Fei'er's astonished gaze, Meiliuji Nu smiled as she approached to the doorway, grasping the railing and shouting towards the room diagonally opposite, "It's time to go home, oh my Prince."
Hearing these words, Ophelia, who had been waiting for a long time, instantly opened the bottle of medicine in her hand and drank it all in one go.
