My Cell Prison

Chapter 305: Deep Involvement

“So fast…”

Strands of plague veins protrude on the surface of Han Dong’s arm.

A massive amount of plague emerges on the ground, even faintly forming a wall constructed by fungi, blocking the path of the old man entirely.

But.

‘Strange Tales’…cannot be dealt with in conventional ways.

The old man ignores the blockage of the plague and breaks through the plague barrier.

“What a pain…” Just as Han Dong was about to use the Pollution Ability.

Whiz… A Ghost Shadow Slash falls.

The Demon Sword is drawn

Slap!

An arm twisted at 360° at multiple joints is chopped down and a large amount of black smoke rises, immediately turning into a pool of stinking black water.

“This old man’s speed is way too fast…”

However, Mia is not too satisfied with the result of only severing one hand.

Since the target the old man was locking onto was Han Dong, Mia only needed to anticipate one slice to execute the target.

It was timed just right, and a chop was made.

Who knew this old man would reduce his speed by extremely twisting his body at the crucial moment, avoiding the chop strike.

The retiring old man adopts a ‘bending down’ pose, crawling on the car roof… The black gas shrouding its body is trying to re-aggregate the arm, but it finds that the wound is entwined with coldness, unable to reconstruct.

For a moment, the old man’s eyes spun crazily, glancing nervously at the Demon Sword in Mia’s hand.

As he slowly retreated, trying to hide his body in the darkness of the parking lot to attack these humans in an alternative way.

A white light flashes out.

The speed is even slightly faster than the old man’s.

After the event at the General Mansion, coupled with last night’s meditation.

Abe realized a lot of things… when dealing with ‘Strange Tales’ that cannot be explained by conventional concepts, don’t rush to attack, observe the opponent’s special traits through the Owl’s Eye first.

Launch an attack with ‘Qi.’

Completely different from usual battles.

White Qi is dramatically released from Abe’s body, enveloping his whole body, like a pure white wolf.

The claws formed with Qi tear through the black gas on the old man’s body, then using a locking technique to restrain the old man tightly.

Mia, who is experienced in combat, doesn’t need a reminder and already follows at the first moment.

In the instant the old man is trying to twist his whole body to break free.

The Demon Sword falls, severing in two.

No matter what the old man is made of, the Demon Sword can cause direct damage.

Moreover, the severed area is immediately invaded by coldness…

But Strange Tales also have their unique characteristics… Despite this, the old man is still full of vigor.

Using the black gas that grew out of the underground parking lot to envelop his whole body, trying to drag the old man’s body into the darkness for reconstruction.

At the critical moment.

Bang!

The underground parking lot, along with the mall directly above it, can feel a strong tremor.

Winry jumps up in the air, and a hammer slams down heavily!

At the point of impact, a one-meter-deep dent is knocked out, and even a large amount of high-temperature flames are released from the hammerhead… The Strange Tales old man is completely annihilated by this hammer blow.

‘Shop’

“Aha! What have you guys turned this into, don’t you understand respect for the old and love for the young?

However, fortunately, you collected pretty much everything, piecing it together should be able to restore it to its original state. Considering the mission is complete… reluctantly give you guys 12 points of reward.”

“Huh? Clues are worth 8 points even with a discount, but the reward is only 12 points? Mr. Aha… that’s too little, isn’t it?”

“Usually that’s about it, it’s not that easy to earn points in [Paradise].

When you have more and more Strange Tales Points, you can exchange them for high-value clues, and naturally, you will receive more points as rewards… Low risk, low return, high risk, high return. Take your time! Young man.”

Han Dong is a bit helpless, he thought Mr. Aha could give him a favor.

“Alright… it seems that this Fate event will probably take half a month.”

Due to the peculiar nature of Strange Tales, every Strange Tale has its special traits, and they also have to consider the death-row squads operating in [Paradise].

Han Dong wouldn’t let everyone act separately, even if they were sleeping at night, all four of them were in one room.

In this way, a full week passed.

The ‘Strange Tales’ dealt with by Han Dong and the others reached thirteen cases, with a current total score of 64 points.

The ‘Strange Tales’ they came into contact with during this period were naturally some less well-known local Strange Tales that Han Dong had never heard of in his past life.

The truly high-difficulty and widely known ‘Strange Tales’ are contained deep within [Paradise].

“Four passes, one true [Paradise] map… When you enter into the main Strange Tales area of [Paradise], remember to come to the shop to see me first, otherwise it will be dangerous if you get lost.

In the inner [Paradise], I have a few things that need your help.”

Exactly.

These are the benefits brought by the increase in “Intimacy”.

When Han Dong received the hidden event that could enhance his relationship with Mr. Aha previously, the System mentioned it.

Once the relationship is improved.

Besides the basic discount, you can also buy some unique clues from Mr. Aha, which can continue to deepen the relationship between them…

“Sure.”

“Aha, seeing that you guys helped me gain control of the [General Mansion], I will remind you… Don’t take the ‘smooth experience’ of this week into the depths of [Paradise].

The peripheral cities are merely to help you adapt to the basic atmosphere of [Paradise].

The interior is completely different! Don’t have any ‘point-grinding’ thoughts.

After all, I still have high hopes for you. I need your help with some things, so take good care of your lives… Aha.”

“Okay.”

For the five-star difficulty Fate event, Han Dong never thought about grinding points from the beginning.

“The outer layer of [Paradise] has multiple sub-areas, where we are now is the ‘Commercial District’, next to it are the ‘Rural Areas’, ‘Mountainous Areas’, ‘Residential Areas’… But the inner area is simply called the ‘Inner Layers of [Paradise]’?”

The electronic map bought for 10 points.

It allows you to zoom in and see the distribution of streets in detail, and also marks the exact location of the ‘shop’, which is quite valuable.

The map shows that each outer district has a road that leads directly to the inner layer of [Paradise].

For some reason, Han Dong has a feeling that the true danger is just starting…

Looking at the ‘shop’ distributed in the inner layer of [Paradise] on the electronic map, it’s like a bunch of safe houses.

Being able to establish a good relationship foundation with Mr. Aha in advance, might become an important basis for the survival of the squad in the inner [Paradise].

“This is the entrance to the [Inner Layers of Paradise]…”

Following the route marked on the map, a very gloomy cobblestone path appears in front of Han Dong and the others.

The moment you step in here, you feel completely separated from the bustling city area.

The small trees on both sides of the cobblestone path are covered with white dresses, from afar it looks like a large number of suicides have hung themselves here collectively.

The white dresses hanging from the branches of the trees are all marked with [No Entry].
