My Cell Prison - Chapter 307
Chapter 307: Chapter 307: Streets
Han Dong pressed his hand against his lips in the thicket, signaling his teammates to remain silent as they quietly waited… something had changed.
Moreover, Han Dong could use this opportunity to discern something important.
That was… whether ‘Strange Tales’ would conflict with each other?
“The old man in the shrine, half of his body remaining, calls the inner layer of the park the ‘Forest Ghost Realm’… We have just entered the inner layer and have already encountered two ‘Strange Tales’ at the back door of the park.
The concentration of ‘Strange Tales’ in the inner layer is probably higher than we anticipated.
Therefore, it is natural for ‘Strange Tales’ to meet each other… What would be the outcome if two ‘Strange Tales,’ both aggressive and invasive, encounter each other?”
Han Dong quietly observed, intending to see the reaction of this ‘Dog Walker’.
Would he pretend nothing happened and continue walking, or would he go check the situation in the bathroom?
“He went there?”
The ‘Human Dog’ on his leash had his mouth entirely split open to his ears… the terrifying multiple layers of sharp teeth in his mouth could easily tear flesh.
As for this fat ‘Dog Walker,’ he seemed to also have some unique abilities.
The ‘Dog Walker’ led his ‘lovely pet,’ approaching the eerie laughter emanating from the public toilet…
Within three minutes.
From inside the public toilet, canine wails were intermittently heard, and a dark shadow abruptly flew out.
Thud! The dark shadow landed right in front of the bush where Han Dong and the others were hiding.
Upon closer inspection… Winry was so scared that she buried her head in Han Dong’s arms.
The thing that had fallen in front of them was the head of the ‘Human Dog.’
The horrifying big mouth filled with teeth was open, and its large eyes had already lost their gleam.
Confronted with this sudden situation, Han Dong kept his cool, examining the wound on the head first… The cut at the neck was rough, not cleanly cut by a sharp object.
Looking at the uneven wound filled with small cuts, it looked as though it had been sawed open.
“A saw?”
They continued to wait for about five minutes, and then the noises inside the bathroom ceased.
“Hahaha.”
Accompanied by the previous eerie laughter, were strange sounds of ‘kacha kacha,’ as though the ‘Strange Tale’ inside the bathroom was disposing of the body of the ‘Dog Walker.’
“Seems like conflict can happen indeed, however… the gap is so large?”
According to Han Dong’s senses, the ‘Dog Walker’ in the park was not weak, and he also had a cruel and violent ‘Human Dog.’
Even in a 2V1 situation, it ended so quickly.
Han Dong silently memorized the location of the bathroom and the strange laughter.
The squad members, hand in hand, keeping alongside the edge hiding in the grass, left… before reaching the inner area of the ‘Shop,’ Han Dong needed to evade all dangerous conflicts.
The abandoned park was relatively small.
The squad slowly made its way to the front gate of the park, and they saw the street in the inner area for the first time.
It was also at this moment.
Several drops of sweat trickled down Han Dong’s cheeks.
“Is this… the ‘Forest Ghost Realm’?”
The scene unveiling on the dark, wide street was beyond everyone’s imagination.
The ‘Replicants’ sent by humans to the outer layer of the park, because of the restriction of the ‘Pass’, were unable to go to the inner layer.
This made the inner layer devoid of any vitality.
The decaying and gloomy city was filled with myriad ‘Strange Tales.’
Every corner was full of danger, just as Han Dong had predicted, except for the ‘Shop,’ there were no places to hide.
On the street, the first thing that caught Han Dong’s attention was a street light closest to them.
Despite the lack of electricity, the street light was flashing irregularly… A middle-aged woman in a floral dress hung on the light.
Her two eyes, practically bulging out of their sockets, continuously rolled around observing her surroundings.
Additionally, from time to time, an elderly woman would speed past the broad street. She moved so fast she kicked up a cloud of dust behind her.
She was much faster than the Twisted Old Man they encountered before in the underground parking lot… even Abe couldn’t catch up at this speed.
Moreover, across the street.
On the roof of a six-story building, a man holding a briefcase with a ‘jumbled’ face…
Leaned forward, then fell!
Thud!
The man’s body crashed hard onto the ground, landing precisely on a fire hydrant by the road, causing his entire spine to break…
Immediately afterwards, the man writhed like a worm, reattaching his broken spine in the process.
He ran up to the roof in a jog to continue his jumping act.
Unlike typical repetitions, every time he fell, his landing location and spot would vary.
Even when he fell on iron bars hanging on the second floor and lost his entire arm.
When he got up again, he also added the action of picking up his arm… During the climb to the roof, he reattached the arm and continued to jump, as though he was enjoying the process.
Right then.
The manhole cover nearby on the road slightly moved. Black fumes surged from the sewer, slowly condensing into a snarling child with a huge tumor on his back…
He didn’t seem to notice the situation with the street light.
With a look of delight on his face, as he was preparing to play on the road…
Slap!!
A long tongue suddenly stretched out, tightly wrapping the child.
Sizzle!
Due to the stimulation, the tumor on the child’s back began to secrete a corrosive liquid.
However, the tongue ignored the corrosion, slowly dragging the ‘Strange Tale’ child.
The person who stretched out the tongue, was the woman hanging on the street light…
No matter how much the child bit or corroded the tongue, it was to no avail… Even when the child tried to turn into a liquid like the sewer, he couldn’t completely change. He seemed to be influenced and interfered by the tongue.
Swish…
When the child was about a meter away from the woman hanging on the street light.
The woman’s body split open from the middle, transforming into a gigantic mouth swallowing the child whole… The hunt was over.
In the following three minutes.
The child, including his large tumor, was completely digested. The bulging eyes of the woman continued to roll around, searching for all the prey that came near her.
Not just Han Dong.
All members of the squad were stunned by this scene.
“Is this… the so-called park?”
Beyond that.
The squad’s eyes gradually moved up, attracted by a ‘lighthouse.’
Even though the resident buildings on the other side of the street blocked most of their view, they could still see the ‘lighthouse’ that reached the sky.
Three strong beams of light came from the top of the ‘lighthouse,’ piercing through the cloud layer and illuminating the park city.
When one of the lights swept across the street in front of Han Dong.
The woman hanging on the street light immediately merged with the light, the man jumping off the building hid inside a building and didn’t dare make a sound. The high speed running woman also stopped under a pavilion, waiting for the light to pass.
According to the records on the electronic map.
The ‘lighthouse’ was right in the center of the park… Considering the current situation, Han Dong and his group absolutely couldn’t be caught in the lighthouse’s light.
