I Became The Mafia Boss Inside The Novel

Chapter 24: Explosion (1)

Tartarus, Hidden Facility.

In a dark, covert room far from the surveillance of the security team, six figures were standing around with tense and serious expressions.

Naturally, these figures were; Elias, Donato, Galilei, Taurus, Junior and Alexus.

"This is the place where we will escape."

In the center, Elias looked at the map of the entire prison facility and pointed at the bottom place where an eye-catching \'X\' sign was drawn.

This mark was not drawn by Goblin, but by him. Using his knowledge of Tartarus, he deduced where the hidden mechanism and exit was placed.

He was confident that he was right about it.

In front of him, Donato and the rest nodded silently with thoughtful expressions.

After the explanation of the plan, the room turned quiet.

"Do you guys have any questions?"

Elias plainly asked, crossing his arms.

The five of them immediately shook their heads; ever since Elias\' obtained the map, they gathered in this place to continuously discuss and rehearse the plan.

They had heard and discussed the plan multiple times already, naturally they would fully understand it now.

Seeing their confident expressions, Elias nodded with a sigh and changed the topic.

"Since that\'s the case, how were the preparations and tasks I assigned doing in your end?"

"Don\'t worry, young master. We\'ve already controlled most of them. Although we didn\'t manage to subdue everyone, the manpower we\'ve gathered is enough."

"Are you sure there will be no problems?"

"Have faith, young master. We\'ve made sure they were thoroughly intimidated and subdued to do our bidding. I\'ve asked them to cooperate."

Saying this, Galilei and the rest smiled slightly, exhibiting confidence.

"That\'s good."

Sensing their confidence, Elias nodded thoughtfully before adding.

"The more distractions, the better. Our priority is to escape, the best possible outcome is to escape without alerting anyone."

Although his five subordinates were strong, they weren\'t strong enough to handle the entire security team\'s collective force, especially the chieftain.

"Rest assured, young master. We know our limits."

Donato and the rest reassured him. Using the Dragonic Tears, they were no longer suppressed by the anti-mana collars.

They were now capable of exerting their full strength and capabilities. However that didn\'t mean they were arrogant enough to challenge the entire security team.

Strength aside, the sheer number would eclipse them.

Elias thought silently.

\'Excellent. All the preparations are almost in place… this way, most of the security\'s attention will be taken away from the underground. The worst possible outcome is if we\'re discovered.\'\'

With him silently contemplating, Donato and the rest looked at each other strangely before Galilei stepped up and asked.

"Uh, young master…"

"Hm? Yes?"

Elias snapped out of his daze and looked at his subordinate directly.

"...About Swain… is he not going to escape along with us?"

Galilei asked while he wore a difficult and complex expression.

\'Hm..? Ah, they don\'t know the truth.\'

Elias was puzzled for a moment before immediately remembering a crucial fact. He thought for a moment before directly telling them the truth.

Upon hearing the truth, the five of them were in utter disbelief. Their expressions changed indescribably, as though unable to comprehend the words he said.

However, after a while, their expressions reverted back to normal as they calmed down. But shock and confusion could still be seen in their eyes.

Elias nodded silently. He couldn\'t help but sigh. In a way, everything happening at the moment was his fault.

With another complex sigh, he finally ordered.

"It\'s time. Let\'s talk about this for another time. Go prepare yourself along with the plan, we\'ll meet up at that place."

Elias waved his hand, making five new paper scrolls appear on his palm. He threw each one of the paper scrolls to his subordinates.

"Take these. Put it in your body as soon as you accomplish step one."

Donato and the rest caught it without a word. With Elias\' orders, they immediately left the room in heavy calmness and got ready to execute the plan.

"..."

As soon as Donato and the rest left, Elias looked at the ceiling before closing his eyes and ordering softly.

"Come out."

At that moment, in the corner of the room, Goblin walked out with his heavy mountain bag hanging behind him.

"How are the preparations in your end?"

Elias calmly asked.

"Hahahaha, with the formula you gave me, it was a certain success. Do not worry. Do not worry. I\'ve already put them in place."

Goblin chuckled joyfully before adding.

"I\'ve also added a timer. Around when the bell strikes, it will go… boom. So you don\'t have to worry about my end. I\'ve successfully done what you want, boss."

Hearing that, Elias nodded thoughtfully. With that, everything was in place. It was time to escape this hell hole of a prison once and for all.

\'Now… let\'s get ready to act.\'

Without turning his back, he slowly walked out of the room and left a few words.

"We\'ll meet again, Goblin."

Tartarus, Cafeteria.

In the cafeteria, a rare occurrence was happening. The whole place was crowded with inmates, almost reaching a thousand.

"Jeez, why is the cafeteria so full today…?"

"I don\'t know. It seems like the prison bosses have some shit to announce… leaving will be unwise…"

"Then where the hell are they?"

"Be quiet! Let\'s just wait! The day is about to end anyways…"

However, the so-called prison bosses were silent and didn\'t move. They held their heads down as though lacking any intention to do anything.

The rest of the prisoners noticed this and felt odd; however they simply waited and whispered among themselves.

In the corner, Bones King Garland was silent as well while his subordinates and goons were wearing worried and annoyed expressions.

"What the heck? Why the hell are we staying here? Let\'s get out…"

"We can\'t. Look at the door, they\'re guarded by some strong people."

"It\'s fucking hot! Shit! When will this shit finish, and why are the prison bosses still damn quiet?!"

"Let\'s calm down. I feel like something is wrong."

The commotion grew louder and louder with each passing moment increasing the unsatisfaction and annoyance of the crowd.

After a while, they finally couldn\'t handle it.

"Open the door! It\'s goddamn hot!"

"Let us go! Shit!"

"What are these…"

At that moment, the bell of the prison rang loudly, announcing the end of the day.

With the bell ringing, the prisoners subconsciously looked up and they said.

"The bell rang, you guys can\'t possibly mak—"

BOOM!

At that moment, countless silent explosions took off.
