My Cell Prison - Chapter 363:
Chapter 363: Chapter 363: The Plan for the Arm
The matters in the lab were settled.
In the remaining four days.
The elders treated Han Dong with the highest level of hospitality.
Firstly, they arranged for a clean human-compatible room in the castle, accompanied by three meticulously selected female crows to serve Han Dong’s every need.
The so-called meticulous selection was also based on human standards.
The bodies of the three female crows were all considered perfect, only… they couldn’t change their heads, which were still crow’s heads.
In the end, Han Dong ‘dismissed’ these female crows and instead recruited Duo Zeya to assist him.
Every minute outside the city was extremely precious, and Han Dong planned to use this time to study crow magic.
Han Dong asked the crow elder to be his private tutor during these four days, learning a type of primitive black magic originated from the crow tribe.
As for the introductory magic book given by Lady Hera, he would slowly read it when he returned to the city.
When there was only half a day left.
Han Dong, who had mastered all the basic knowledge, always felt an ‘obstruction’ when casting crow magic. When he tried his best, a feeling of weakness would spread all over his body.
“The Ghoul Arm was originally inclined towards ‘brute force’. Besides, as the ghoul was formed in the graveyard, it carries a slight quality of plague… More suitable for close combat and plague studies, not for casting magic.
With this extra minor subject providing a 100-point upper limit value for me to use, I must find an arm with magic affinity.
Moreover, I need an arm of sufficiently high quality for long-term use.
The acquisition of the G-virus last time was because I had the ‘Fate Card’ to filter and choose from low-difficulty movies, directly choosing the relatively easy “Biohazard”.
But this time the Fate Card cannot be directly identified.
Also, the limb that I need must come from a high-difficulty instance… perhaps even a knight-level Fate Space.
Choosing an arm is indeed a big problem.”
Han Dong had considered asking the crow elder to cut off an arm and give it to himself.
The arm of an elder, an [alien] level creature, must be powerful… but it has limitations.
What Han Dong wants is an arm that can fully control magic, but the main properties of the crow elder’s arm lean towards witchcraft and ancient crow magic… not what Han Dong wants.
Moreover, the time outside the city is about to end, leaving no time to search for other [Demon]s that master the dark magic series.
On the other hand, [Demon]s are rare and scattered. It’s not easy to find a demon that specializes in black magic.
As for the ‘Clown’s arm’, it leans more towards physics. Its analysis shows that its ‘magic control value’ is only E-class.
“The only way to get an ideal arm for controlling magic in a short period is… to buy!
The industry chain in the manor has not yet been formed, let alone building a complete trade chain… It still takes some time to make money from the manor.
Can’t buy much with the cash I have. I have to make use of human resources.
Whoever lends me money is my dear brother!”
…
Four days passed.
The carriage that departed from the manor arrived at the pre-arranged cliffside.
[Black Stone House] had arrived early.
When Dumps came out, compared to four days ago, there was some hard-to-hide fatigue in his handsome face.
As soon as he got on the carriage.
Han Dong stretched out his hand directly.
“Dumps, can you lend me some money.”
When it came to money.
Han Dong first thought of Dumps, who once invited Han Dong and the others to stay in a high-end hotel.
It seemed that a clever and willing youngster like Dumps would have made quite a lot of money through the unique finger method in the Holy City. He might even have a unique ‘massage industry chain’ in private.
“Is ten thousand copper coins enough?”
“Huh!?”
Before Han Dong gave a specific number, who would have thought that Dumps proposed a five-digit number right out of the gate…
“I can only take 10,000 copper coins out of my little treasury for now. If that’s not enough, I need to make some arrangements. After a week, I can lend you at least 30,000.”
Just thinking about all the ten thousand copper coins being credited to Dumps’ account just from a few flicks of his hand in school made Han Dong’s spirits lift.
Thinking again about the underground laboratory in the manor that requires a long time to get ready, the expenditure of manpower and resources for remodeling, and the fact that the industrial chain hasn’t been set up yet, Han Dong couldn’t help but feel a bit upset.
Sometimes, the gap between people is just that big.
“10,000 is enough…”
10,000 copper coins is already a large sum in the Holy City.
It’s more than enough to buy a high-quality piece of equipment. Only ‘Unique’ and above quality finished equipment often has a price without a market, but the materials are available.
“Deal! I’ll transfer it directly to your ‘treasury’ when I get back to the city!”
Dumps didn’t ask what Han Dong was going to do and readily lent him the money.
“Thank you, I will pay you back as soon as possible.”
“No problem, I’m not short of money. Just use it… Speaking of which, I barely got any sleep these days. I’m going to take a nap.”
As soon as Dumps sat down in the carriage, his eyelids began to twitch and he went straight to sleep after his words.
“Okay.”
…
The money is ready.
Now the rest is to ‘exchange it for equivalent value’.
Because of the existence of the ‘Faceless Skull’, Han Dong could bring ‘living things’ directly from the Fate Space back to reality.
Other knights entering the Fate Space, on the other hand, need to consume points to bring ‘living creatures’ back to reality, or completely enslave them, allowing the system to determine that the ‘living things’ belong entirely to the participants of fate, and they can also bring them back normally.
Except for professions like necromancers and stitchers.
Living creatures in the World of Fate are valuable for most knights…
Single limbs such as an arm or a leg are no different from trash.
Han Dong first went to the market. Among the dazzling array of goods, he only found two arms that came from the Fate Space.
One of them had completely lost its vitality as it had been soaked in formalin solution for too long.
The other one is nothing but a monster arm from “Alien”. It has no extra features except for hardness and corrosion resistance.
“I can only… preorder.”
……
Holy Knights Group.
A certain ‘messenger’ passed through the holy corridor carved with a mural of the Saint Girl, to an open inner courtyard.
A blonde female knight in bright silver armor was practicing her striking ability here.
“Knight Silist, you have a visitor.”
“Can’t you see I’m busy? I don’t see anyone unless they’re at least a platoon leader.”
“He just asked you to look at the wind-up device. It seems like he has a message for you.”
“Hmm?”
Vino Silist, who temporarily stopped her training, picked up the wind-up device left aside. Through the embedded magic array, a voice message was transmitted.
“Are you free? I have something to discuss with you.”
Silist immediately stopped her training for the day, tidied up her hair, and immediately went to the gate.
