My Cell Prison - Chapter 115
Chapter 115: Chapter 115 Main Control Room
Translator: 549690339
“Oh my!
It’s broad daylight, and while there is no troublesome monster… but aren’t these bugs just too numerous?”
On their way to the central control room, bizarre creatures kept emerging from the walls.
The clown at the forefront was like playing a game of whack-a-mole, one swing of his hammer meant another head bludgeoned.
Without even Han Dong lifting a finger, the grey corridor rapidly became a dump of creature corpses.
It wasn’t just the ‘wall-in mice’ they encountered at first.
Occasionally, spirit-like ghosts akin to the ‘Eye of Naxxramas’ would appear: humanoid from the waist up, dragging a spirit tail below.
They would make terrifying screams along the way, charging directly at the squad.
The screams reached straight into the eardrums, leading into the brain, resembling some kind of sonic attack… However, Han Dong’s ‘Bird Beak Doctor Outfit’ significantly mitigated these sonic waves. All he needed to do was concentrate, and he wouldn’t be affected.
The spirits coming head-on tried to burrow into their bodies and cause internal damage.
However, Han Dong and Chen Li didn’t even have time to react.
The clown tugged at his gloves a bit, and when the ethereal spirits charged in front of him, caught them effortlessly. These spirits had no chance of struggling.
Open his mouth, swallow, chew, swallow again, burp-
“Delicious! Tastes like durian candy.”
The clown, having swallowed several terrifying spirits, still looked unsatisfied, continuously licking his fingers as if he hadn’t had enough.
Upon seeing this, Han Dong realized something.
“No wonder… the Fate System repeatedly warned us not to conflict with the clown before we gathered enough information about him.
In actuality, even if we gathered enough ultimate information and understood the clown’s abilities… if we truly clashed in battle, our four-person team’s chances of winning wouldn’t be high.
However, some advanced information might reveal the clown’s ‘weaknesses’.
Just by thinking about wrapping up things here and returning to New Derry Town to confront the clown in battle once again using the clues we’ve gathered, it gives me the creeps.”
Han Dong looked at the pile of strange corpses littering the corridor, a helpless look on his face.
At this moment, Chen Li, her hair tied in two ponytails, whispered to Han Dong through their ‘Master-Servant Relationship’:
“Mr. Han Dong…did you try to use the strange creatures in the sewer to take down the clown?”
“I had such a thought at first.
But now it’s not easy to carry out…unlike the evil spirits in ‘Being Possessed’, this clown is very smart.
Moreover, the clown has a variety of strange abilities, and so far, he has only revealed a small part of them.
In this intermediary layer, which I am not even clear about myself, if the plan fails, the outcome might be worse than death.”
“Then…” Chen Li didn’t know what to do.
“Continue working with the clown, and don’t act abnormally. If I can think of a reliable plan, I’ll naturally let you know…”
“Okay… I just don’t really like this psycho.”
“Try to adapt.’
Han Dong didn’t say much in response.
Han Dong didn’t say much in response.
Actually, he didn’t think that the clown was ‘insane’.
A lunatic wouldn’t be able to discern game rules as an NPC, let alone change some rules of fate incidents to an extent.
In Han Dong’s eyes, this BOSS ‘Clown’ is definitely a unique existence among all kinds of fate incidents.
Han Dong’s resentment towards the clown had already largely dissipated after taking out almost half of his left side…thanks to their cooperative relationship and the substantial assistance the clown had provided along the way. Han Dong’s attitude towards the clown had somewhat changed.
Since all the little critters appearing in the tunnel were taken care of by the clown,
Han Dong merely followed behind, using the metal syringe to secretly extract the cell essence from the corpses… on average, the cell essence of 3 to 5 monster corpses could be gathered.
It felt like being in a low-level instance with a high-level big boss, only needing to loot the corpses.
Even if each corpse only provided a little bit of cell essence, Han Dong was still gaining… With the accumulation of quantity, Han Dong would have enough ‘Load Value’ to expand the prison.
[Central Control Room]
Boom! Boom!
The intense noise of machinery echoed from behind the iron gate.
Opening this pressure-driven heavy iron gate wouldn’t be simple, humans couldn’t achieve it.
“Let me try to see if I can crack this kind of lock.”
The truth is, if Koslin were here, he could certainly decipher the password in a short time… Han Dong, a biologist, found it hard to deal with such metal components.
Just as Han Dong was planning to use [The Eye] to glimpse the inner structure of the lock hole.
Bang!
The clown standing in front of the metal door swung the heavy hammer in his hand violently.
The wall trembled.
A crack, just big enough to fit a hand, was knocked into the mighty iron gate.
Such a fissure wasn’t enough to destroy this iron gate… Smashing it multiple times with a heavy hammer might break it open, but the clown chose a more brutal approach.
He dropped the hammer.
The clown unexpectedly started warming up in front of the damaged iron gate.
“Stretching! 1, 2, 3, 4… 2, 2, 3, 4!”
Warmed up.
The clown put his palm into the crack of the iron gate and, with sheer brute force, pulled the gate horizontally left and right.
Crack- Crack- Crack! (Sound of metal compressing)
The multiple-layer reinforced iron gate was actually torn open wide enough for one person to pass.
“This….” Han Dong was stunned, “How are we supposed to deal with this!?” All kinds of peculiar powers were one thing.
But how was he supposed to deal with this kind of brute force… Cass, the strongest in his team, even if he were strengthened, couldn’t possibly achieve such an exaggerated level of strength, could he?
Manually tearing open three layers of iron gate.
If a person got caught by the clown, it was no different than tearing paper.
“Let’s go!”
Han Dong hesitated for a moment, then immediately followed into the [Main Operation Space].
Upon seeing the scene inside, Han Dong’s face turned a bit ugly.
The giant piston-like metal device was operating on both sides.
What was fueling the operation of the device was neither usual electric power, nor steam propulsion.
But instead, twelve glass containers set up within the [Main Operation Space].
Inside the fluid-filled containers was a ‘human’ wearing a breathing mask!
All over their bodies were connected to various small conduits, converging at the bottom of the container, and being linked to the device on both sides of the room through energy converters.
At the same time, some conduits were connected to hidden areas.
“Human power generation device? Something doesn’t seem right..
Just as the ‘Weirdos Squad’ stepped foot here.
The ‘humans’ in all the glass containers suddenly opened their eyes, staring at the three of them with bloodshot eyes.
A sense of danger swept over Han Dong’s entire body.
These ‘humans’ were mutating rapidly.
Gray veins began to protrude on the surface of their skin, different signs slowly emerged… The danger index kept rising.
Han Dong hurriedly used [The Eye] to scan these guys and found a problem.
“I misunderstood!
The huge piston devices on both sides of the room are powerful generators! Through the energy converters, energy is constantly input into these ‘people’s’ bodies.
At the same time, the conduits connected to their vital parts (brain, heart, core muscle tissue) seem to be infusing them with special mutation substances.
Is this a ‘bio-modification laboratory’?”
