Reincarnation NPC, but Arknights

To be precise, a group of people created chaos at the main entrance to divert attention, while others found a way to sneak into the interior.

While the idea was good, breaking into Mansfield Prison wasn't that simple. These players couldn't find a map of the entire Mansfield Prison, so while this method wasn't entirely useless, it was better than nothing.

After thinking it over, Bai Ye made up his mind.

Looking at the players in front of him, Bai Ye cleared his throat and said, "I want to go into the prison to 'visit' a friend, but I need some manpower. Are you willing to help me?"

At the same time, Bai Ye began to open the NPC panel to edit the quest.

No typing is required; the game system will automatically read Bai Ye's brainwaves and convert his thoughts into text.

In the blink of an eye, the player in front of him received a quest from Bai Ye:

[Ding—Rhodes Island's Director Bai Ye wants to infiltrate the prison to bail someone out. He invites you to join his "professional team." Do you wish to accept the mission?]

[Note! After completing the mission, White Night's favorability will increase, while Columbia's reputation will decrease.]

The players who received the task were all taken aback.

It can't be such a coincidence.

Just as they were about to do something bad, Bai Ye was about to make a move as well?

Although they were somewhat skeptical, they certainly couldn't let go of the mission and rewards that were offered to them for free. Moreover, these players had a vague feeling that Bai Ye could lead them into the prison.

……

Soon, news of Bai Ye's arrival in Columbia spread quickly. In addition, among the player community, besides the friends of the captured players, many others had long been dissatisfied with these technology companies that were secretly conducting human experiments.

They gathered together.

Suddenly, Bai Ye's team expanded to five sizes.

Although there is a limit to the number of players who can accept the quests posted by Bai Ye, many players did not accept the quests at all, but instead chose to follow Bai Ye.

Yes, that's what players are like. Some of them learned about the dirty deals and shady human experiments conducted by tech companies from pioneers in the wilderness.

These things may have nothing to do with the players, but some players are born with a sense of justice and want to play a positive role like a "paladin" in the game.

Therefore, they will meddle in other people's business and speak out and fight against these injustices.

Of course, some players are also calculating how much they can gain by destroying a tech company.

If you pay enough, players can even blow up the Arasaka Tower.

Perhaps the native inhabitants of Terra simply cannot understand these things. They can't gain any benefit from them, and it has nothing to do with them at all, so why would these undead suddenly get involved?

Is it simply because of those damn infected pioneers?

Who cares what those guys say?

……

These actions, which others might consider crazy, were perfectly understandable to Bai Ye.

After all, he used to be one of the players.

He had also followed players through the fortresses of the Unjust Nobles. He understood this golden spirit all too well.

After thinking it over, Bai Ye did not take immediate action.

He first went to a nearby bar.

Unlike other prisons, Mansfield Prison is a mobile prison, originally a nearly abandoned industrial platform.

Warden Randolph then proposed to the state governments that the industrial platform be converted into a prison, which immediately solved the problems of disposing of the abandoned mobile platform and housing the prisoners.

What makes this prison special is that it is usually moored in the wilderness and only goes to a nearby city for supplies every few months.

The advantage of this approach is safety; even if prisoners escape, they are faced with endless wilderness and have virtually no way to return. When docked at city ports, the prisons are also heavily guarded, eliminating the possibility of escape from within.

However, Bai Ye knew that this prison had loopholes. No system in this world is perfect; people are the biggest security vulnerability.

Because they are usually in the wilderness, far from any village or shop, not only do the prisoners experience psychological stress, but the lack of activity also makes the prison guards and staff feel very uncomfortable.

These guys are human too; they get restless too.

So once the prison stops near the city, they seize the opportunity to go into the city and enjoy themselves.

this is a good chance.

White Night told Skadi to wait where she was and went into the bar.

……

"A glass of milk, please," Bai Ye said to the bartender.

"Milk? Haha, kid, this is a bar. We only have alcohol, not milk."

The bartender's words made the guests sitting nearby laugh. However, strangely enough, because of Bai Ye's affable aura, no one stood up to provoke or mock him.

"Tsk...then I'll have a sparkling water. Oh, and I want Coca-Cola, no Pepsi."

As Bai Ye spoke, he took out a stack of Colombian gold vouchers and placed them on the table.

"Too much." The bartender glanced at the gold coupon, pushed the money back, and then went to get a bottle of sparkling water for Bai Ye.

"I have a question. Were any prison guards there before?"

As Bai Ye spoke, he gestured towards the back door of the bar.

Following Bai Ye's gaze, the middle-aged bartender immediately revealed a knowing look on his face, and then made a gesture towards Bai Ye.

"Thanks." Bai Ye pushed the gold voucher back.

"Child, what are you going over there for?"

"Heh, my sister got scammed by a bastard. I'm going to go find that son of a bitch right now and cut off his dick and shove it into his mouth."

Chapter Fifty-Nine: "The Safest Prison"

Bai Ye's words left the bartender stunned. In the end, the guy actually joined Bai Ye in discussing countermeasures, and even told Bai Ye about all the prison guards and staff who had come out of the prison.

Bai Ye memorized all the information, thanked the kind bartender, and headed towards the back door of the bar.

Actually, he was quite familiar with this place; he must have been here in his previous life. So, after entering the bar, he quickly had some impression of it.

Walk through the alley behind the bar, and you'll find yourself in Neuleborg's red-light district.

That is, the place Bai Ye was referring to.

That's why Bai Ye had Skadi wait outside. Clearly, that kind of place wasn't suitable for taking Skadi along.

Along the street, Bai Ye activated the optical invisibility effect of "Wind King Barrier" and then found the location of the prison guard mentioned by the bartender.

Bai Ye quietly entered the room and then knocked the two people who were doing the deed unconscious.

Bai Ye found a uniform amidst the prison guards' violence.

The prison guards also carry their uniforms and equipment when they go out, making it easier to apprehend prisoners who might try to escape.

However, this guy clearly broke the rules and came here to secretly let loose.

"Tsk tsk, so small."

Bai Ye glanced at the guy in the middle of the night, then took his equipment and uniform while making fun of him.

Bai Ye took the prison guard's badge and saw his name on it.

-------------------------------------

Having settled the identity issue, Bai Ye rented a truck and had all the players climb inside.

Bai Ye put on his uniform and drove his truck directly to the prison's transfer area.

"The warden told me to deliver this truckload of beer inside."

Logically, this place should be under alert, since being docked in a city port is the easiest time for prisoners to escape.

However, while this prison is very strict about leaving, it's surprisingly lenient about entering. Moreover, today's guard was a seasoned veteran who, having received his salary, was just going through the motions. He glanced at Bai Ye's uniform and equipment, checked Bai Ye's identification, and let him in, without even checking the truck's cargo hold.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Skadi, who had been hidden by Bai Ye, was dumbfounded. After entering the prison platform, she couldn't help but ask, "Is this all it takes to get in?"

"Of course, that's how it is in Colombia. There are even more outrageous cases. In another prison, a prisoner fell in love with a female guard, and then the guard just took him out with her."

"It's that simple."

Although Bai Ye had never been to prison in his previous life, he had heard all sorts of interesting stories. For example, the best thing in the world was that the workers of Ursus, the police of Victoria, and the chefs of Gaul; while the worst thing was that the police of Ursus, the chefs of Victoria, and the workers of Gaul.

Well, Colombia was part of Victoria before independence, so it can't be said that they were completely unrelated; rather, they were of the same lineage.

So you can imagine how outrageous their police officers' quality is.

Colombian police have a history of being inhumane, but when it comes to investigating cases, they are no better than mercenaries and private bodyguards.

So, Bai Ye, accompanied by a carload of bread rolls and Skadi, brazenly appeared in what Colombia's supposedly safest prison.

"Get out of the car. There won't be any problems once you get in."

As Bai Ye spoke, he jumped out of the driver's seat and then patted the back door of the truck.

The players filed out of the carriages.

Bai Ye activated a wide-range optical cloaking effect in advance, concealing everyone's whereabouts.

"What should we do next?"

Skadi looked at the main structure of the prison in front of her and asked a question.

Just as Bai Ye was about to speak, he suddenly heard a loud bang coming from the high tower in the center of the prison.

The prison was plunged into a power outage following the piercing noise.

Then, Bai Ye saw the tall tower in the center of the prison begin to sink.

"Skadi, let's go!"

Bai Ye's eyes lit up. Although he didn't know what had happened, it was probably someone Himer had arranged. He felt that this time it should work.

And so, White Night and Skadi began to run, with the players following behind them.

However, they were quickly left behind; these guys simply couldn't keep up with Bai Ye and Skadi's speed.

While running at full speed, Bai Ye still had the time to issue quests to players through the NPC panel.

Now is the perfect time, because the entire prison has suddenly lost power, and everything is in chaos. Players can use this opportunity to search for the captured players they are looking for and create further chaos.

Therefore, the task issued by Bai Ye was very simple.

Let's liven this place up!

Let's get hyped!

After receiving the mission, the players separated from Bai Ye to search for their captured companions, while Bai Ye and Skadi took advantage of the tower's inability to sink into the ground and leaped into the top from the outside.

At that moment, the tower's descent suddenly accelerated, as if the mechanism was malfunctioning and it was crashing down hard.

Both Bai Ye and Skadi's bodies sank, and the two of them, quite in sync, half-squatted down, falling along with the building.

"boom"

With a loud bang, the base of the tower seemed to have hit something, and stopped after a violent tremor.

Bai Ye and Skadi then stood up. Bai Ye sensed the sound and wind direction, then threw a long, narrow box at Skadi and shouted, "Skadi, shoot it through!"

Bai Ye was pointing to a wall.

Skadi nodded upon hearing this, and then Bai Ye saw her take a greatsword out of the box.

The girl stood still, raised her two-handed greatsword, and slammed it hard against the wall.

Once, twice, three times.

Skadi chiseled a large hole in the hard concrete wall.

Bai Ye and Skadi went inside.

"This is the main control room... The door over there is open, let's go this way!"

Bai Ye was certain that someone had been here before.

No one usually comes here, so the ground is covered in dust. Even after all that commotion, with dust flying everywhere, he could still see the footprints on the ground.

One of them stood out.

“It’s a big guy,” Skadi said softly, looking at the huge footprint on the ground.
