Chapter 401: The Glory Of Hadi’s Escape
Hadi raised the head of Hush to his mouth, "This one ate from us. Show me your resolve!" On saying this, he took a juicy bite from Hush’s neck and swallowed.
Hadi’s actions surprised everyone, but there were many here that were hungry, and indeed, their beastly nature had long raised its head but the fear of judgement had held them back. However, no longer.
The first to dive on Hush’s body was a rabbit-man. The moment he led the way, the other prisoners rushed over to partake of hush’s flesh. Soon, gnawing sounds could be heard as Hush was broken and eaten, by the same people he once oppressed.
Hadi on the other hand turned to a corner, at the rat-man that had jumped into the way for him when he was having his quarrel with Hush the butcher.
This Rat-man, now injured, was dying.
Hadi walked over and picked him up. "Do not worry, brother, today, you shall not die."Hadi assured him, his voice a soft yet firm promise in the midst of despair.
From the depths of his coat, Hadi produced a green vial, its contents mysterious yet potent. With careful hands, he poured the liquid into the rat-man’s mouth, a gesture of solidarity and hope.
Miraculously, the transformation began—the rat-man’s broken bones realigned, knitting themselves whole, while a soft, green glow emanated from his eyes, heralding the onset of healing. Muscles once atrophied by injury and neglect swelled with newfound strength, a visible sign of the drug’s restorative power.
Witnessing the rat-man’s rapid recovery, Hadi allowed himself a moment of satisfaction, a smile breaking through the gravity of their situation. "Good! Now, we break out of this prison," he declared, his resolve hardened by the success of his intervention.
This act of mercy and empowerment was more than a simple gesture of aid; it was a symbol of Hadi’s leadership and the unity of purpose that had begun to coalesce among the prisoners.
The guards, caught off guard and outnumbered, realized too late that they had been outmaneuvered. What ensued was a swift and decisive confrontation, the outcome of which would forever change the power dynamics within the prison walls.
This moment marked not just a physical escape from the chains that bound them but also a symbolic liberation from the oppression they had endured. Hadi, through his ingenuity and leadership, had turned the tides in their favor, orchestrating a rebellion that would be remembered as the beginning of a new era for all those who dared to dream of freedom.
In a display of cunning and solidarity, Hadi and his fellow inmates executed their plan flawlessly. With the Rhino-men guards subdued, they quickly donned the guards’ uniforms, adopting their identities to facilitate their escape.
This act of disguise allowed them to move freely, neutralizing any opposition they encountered by overpowering the guards and distributing their uniforms among the escaping prisoners.
This strategic approach ensured a mass exodus from the confines of the prison walls, liberating over a thousand inmates in a bold stroke of defiance.
Under Hadi’s leadership, this newly formed army of former prisoners, each one now bearing the mark of the transformative drug, marched out of the dungeon and into the cloak of night.
Their escape was a silent, shadowy procession, moving with a purpose and unity that had been forged in the dark depths of their captivity. They sought refuge in the dense, concealing foliage of a nearby forest, a natural fortress that offered them a temporary reprieve from the pursuit of the kingdom’s forces.
The full magnitude of their breakout was not realized until the arrival of the next shift of soldiers at the prison.
Dawn brought with it the stark revelation that the prison was empty, its once impenetrable barriers breached, and its captives vanished like specters in the night. The news sent shockwaves through the Beast Nation, a tremor that threatened to unravel the very fabric of their society.
This mass escape, orchestrated by Hadi, marked the beginning of an era of upheaval and chaos that would challenge the established order of the Beast Nation. With a thousand freed prisoners now united under a common cause and led by a visionary with the power to bend the very essence of their beings, the kingdom found itself on the brink of a conflict that would test the strength of its foundations.
