Chapter 392 Infiltrating the Prison

Kyle and Tony left their Spaceship and entered the inhospitable vacuum of outer space, where no lifeforms could survive. In the extreme cold and oxygen-free weightlessness, Kyle wore a special form-fitting spacesuit, while Tony donned his Iron Man suit made of the same material as the Spaceship, allowing them to move freely in the void.

There's an important detail here.

Whether it's Kyle's fusion energy or the golden-red paint of Tony's suit, appearing in the area patrolled by a massively powered galactic organization would attract too much attention. 

Therefore, Kyle didn't activate his fusion energy for flight; instead, he relied on gravitational manipulation to move slowly. Tony even painted his Iron Man suit gray-black, reminiscent of the original prototype and operated his engines at lower power.

They were like two small fish swimming into the ocean, moving slowly toward the distant colossal prison, taking advantage of the countless asteroids in the star belt for cover.

Although it seemed like they were not far from the prison, it took Kyle and Tony quite some time to reach the vicinity.

Kyle placed his hand on the hard outer shell of the prison's bottom side and looked up. Even with his vision, he couldn't see the top. The prison was no longer just mountain-sized; it looked more like a sky city from a dream, floating above the asteroid belt, exuding a mysterious, eerie, cold, and bloody dark style.

"It truly is an Interstellar prison through and through," Tony whispered through a small communicator, talking to Kyle beside him. "Boss, I've asked J.A.R.V.I.S to find an entrance."

Kyle nodded. To ensure Lorna's safety, he left Vis on the Spaceship, so he could be informed immediately in case of emergency.

"Then let's begin."

Tony pressed his Iron Man palm against the outer layer of the prison, and concentric circles of translucent light waves spread out, penetrating the thick outer walls like a scan.

Three years of wandering in space had given Tony experience that Earth couldn't provide. His development of the Iron Man suit and Kryon's energy had greatly improved, catching up with the technological level of some of the powerful organizations or empires in the Galaxy.

For example, this light wave sonar was one of them, capable of silently probing the internal structure of high-tech instruments without being detected by the system defenses.

"We've got it." Tony retracted his hand and waved to Kyle, flying upward along the wall.

Kyle quickly followed. Tony stopped at a protruding steel plate, resembling a door for passage. There was a card slot on the side, similar to the emergency exits of large buildings on Earth.

"J.A.R.V.I.S, it's your turn." Tony extended his arm, and the Iron Man arm slightly transformed, stretching out miniature mechanical claws toward the card slot.

After a while, the door's green light blinked, and with a click, it suddenly opened to the left.

As the door opened, due to the extreme pressure difference between the inside and outside, a swift airflow rushed outwards. One of the alien prison guards, wearing protective gear and wielding a laser gun, happened to be patrolling inside the corridor. Unfortunately, he was carried out by the airflow, disappearing along with Kyle and Tony.

"Oh no!"

Kyle, quick to react, instinctively activated his fusion energy, causing a dazzling flow of light to erupt from his body. The already powerful physique of the god-like being was further enhanced by the leap.

In the blink of an eye, the seemingly out-of-control scene moments ago vanished. The emergency door had closed again, concealing Kyle, Tony, and the unconscious prison guard.

Several nearby aircraft, sensing the disturbance, hovered around the door, but finding nothing unusual, they scattered again according to the system's programmed instructions.

Meanwhile, inside the prison, in a corridor just beyond the emergency door.

Kyle breathed a sigh of relief as the glowing light on his body dimmed. He let go of Tony's shoulder, and without ceremony, dropped the unconscious alien prison guard to the ground.

"Thank goodness you acted fast." Tony, still shaken, patted his chest emitting a faint blue light. In that moment just now, as a human, he couldn't have reacted at all. Kyle had relied on his super speed to resolve everything safely.

"This is just the beginning, so be careful," Kyle said to Tony, glancing down at the unconscious prison guard. He then turned to the Symbiote attached to him and said, "Stop lying around all day, it's time to get to work, Venom."

"Yes, master."

Venom's lazy response echoed in Kyle's mind, followed by a linear mucous oozing from Kyle's shoulder, transforming into sharp tentacles. They reached out and forcefully pierced the unknown alien lifeform's skull, which was hidden under the prison guard's protective helmet.

Tony seemed unfazed by this, staying vigilant as he scanned the dimly lit Iron Man corridors.

Venom's tentacles twitched as they forcefully extracted information from the alien's brain tissue, filtering out negative and unnecessary fragments of memories. After simplifying the information, Venom conveyed it to Kyle.

When the tentacles retracted into Kyle's body, the prison guard lost all signs of life.

Kyle nodded to Tony. "Alright, I now know the basic structure of the Prison, the distribution of armed defenses, and the locations where different types of criminals are held."

Tony pondered for a moment. "With our combined strength, can we break through to the area where the prisoners are held and extract this Star-Lord?"

"We can, but there are too many checkpoints from the outer to the inner perimeter. Even if we find Star-Lord, the Nova Corps Spaceships have already surrounded Prison from the outside," Kyle gently shook his head. Beyond the Fortress prison lies outer space, and he had never tried to fly through space at light speed with people before.

"Then should I go find the control center?" Tony continued to consider his options. With J.A.R.V.I.S's assistance, he was skilled at hacking into databases and inclined towards the 'stealing the base' approach.

"That would work. You go find the control center, and I'll disguise myself as a prison guard to locate our target. Once I've got him, I'll send you a signal, and you create chaos. We'll take the opportunity to escape the prison together."

"Got it."

With their plan set, they wasted no time and immediately sprang into action.

Tony removed the prison guard's protective suit and put it on over his Iron Man armor. He also confiscated the keys and identity card. Without any disguise skills, he had to resort to this crude method.

Watching the guard's body, now stripped down to just his underwear, Kyle removed his gloves from the spacesuit. With his fair and slender hands aimed at the ground, a scorching golden flame descended. In just half a second, the guard's body evaporated into a layer of faint dust.

Then, Kyle's body expanded, growing taller and larger. He conjured a prison guard uniform out of thin air, becoming an exact replica of the guard who had just been obliterated.
