My Cell Prison

Chapter 212: Chapter 212: Ghoul Factory

Translator: 549690339

No matter what kind of modifications Han Dong’s right arm went through afterwards, its essence is still the “Ghoul Arm”.

When coming into contact with ordinary ghouls, even if Han Dong had just killed one, there is no resonance or homologous reaction.

However, when he set foot in the Ghoul Nest, his right arm trembled slightly due to the resonance.

This indirectly suggests that underneath lies a true ghoul, or an entity that can establish a connection with ghouls… the level of danger is self-evident.

“Disguise Strengthening”

Through subjective control, Han Dong enhances the effect of the Faceless Skull’s disguise on his right arm, thus easing the resonance… to avoid being targeted by the entity below.

If the ‘King’ below leads a swarm of ghouls, even formal knights would be drawn into a bitter struggle… even possibly being swallowed by the sea of corpses.

“What lies below is certainly not simple… It is surely much stronger than [Barber Charlie].”

Han Dong keeps his ‘Plague Field’ active at all times.

Being in such a ghoul nest rampant with fungi, Han Dong can absorb pathogenic fungi to replenish energy at any moment… at least the plague energy is inexhaustible.

Tap…

As he steps down the final step…

Han Dong paused a bit, murmuring, “This nest… It’s quite different from what I pictured!”

Ghoul.

They are special entities living alongside the Graveyard Fungus.

In Han Dong’s perspective, they are a group of creatures who do not possess high intelligence and live in groups.

The nest they are supposed to occupy must be a filthy cave full of fungus, corpses, and bones strewn about… just like a group of beasts living in a cave.

However, the [Nest] that now appeared before Han Dong completely overturned his original perception.

It’s more like an orderly managed underground space than a nest.

Countless ghouls are encapsulated by a kind of ellipsoid membrane and embedded in the fungus-covered stone walls, currently in a special state of growth and dormancy.

This membrane is pale pink, semi-transparent (Membrane).

A tough fascia (Anadesma) structure is covered on the surface of the membrane, displaying a muscular pattern, which ensures that the ‘dormant’ ghoul inside won’t be affected by external influences.

Additionally.

The interior of the membrane is filled with a special solution similar to a kind of life substance (Culture Fluid).

Bathed in this solution, skin pores expand at their maximum, constantly absorbing the life substance.

This maximizes the catalyzation and shaping of the ghoul’s body, making them grow into a strong and brutal mature entity in a short time.

Furthermore.

The soft tubes are regularly arranged at the top area of the channel, each corresponding to a ghoul.

They trail down from the wall, extending into the top of the membrane.

They are connected to the ghoul’s spinal bone from the back of the head, injecting the highly infectious original fungus solution… enabling the rapidly matured ghouls to also possess strong infectious capabilities of the plague.

This is essentially a [Ghoul Factory].

Besides, the scale of this below, with countless ghouls tightly arranged on the wall via the membrane is so dense and vast, it is as though they are nurturing an army.

“Where on earth does this vast number of ghouls come from… Could there be a maternal body!?”

It suddenly reminded Han Dong of the special entity–[Maternal Body] that the witch mentioned when she was teaching about inferior life forms in the outskirts of the city.

“A Maternal Body with exceptionally strong reproduction capabilities.

The Maternal Body usually occupies a sealed area, such as an abandoned village, an underground cave. It reproduces offspring freely within and conceals the area using a ‘mist’.

Most Maternal Bodies reach the level of demons, ordinary knight trainees would not encounter them.”

The Night Watch Jon hurriedly spoke:

“Don’t overthink the matter of the [Maternal Body], you won’t come into contact with them.

Enclosed within a capsule, the dormant ghouls won’t awaken no matter how much noise we make, as long as we don’t rupture the capsule or pull off the tubing connected to their spines.

We are currently embarking on a ‘Night Watch mission’.

The goal is to deal with uncontrollable sudden events, inspect, and seal the polluted ‘dead spots’.

Once we manage the situation down here, an apprentice knight squad will follow up with tasks related to the ‘graveyard area’.

Thus,

Except under special conditions, it is absolutely forbidden to disturb the current area, including the ghouls inside the capsules.

We need to deal with the ‘personnel’ wandering here.

When dealing with them, we must be swift and precise.”

“Understood.”

“Next, where do we go?” Jon handed the decision of where to find the ‘dead spots’ to the two rookies.

“Left!”

Han Dong didn’t hesitate and immediately chose a direction.

“Based on what judgment?”

“1. The pollution concentration on the left is slightly higher than on the right.

2. The source of the liquid in the plague tubing connected to the ghouls’ spines also mostly points to the left.

3. Slope issue. When exploring the underground crypts, there’s a slight downward slope. The same is here. The left side slopes down while the right side goes up.

The polluted ‘dead spots’ are likely deeper in.”

Despite Han Dong’s short time here, he had provided three decisive grounds for his judgement.

This impressed Jon presented him a look of admiration.

“You can directly sense the ‘pollution concentration’?”

“Yes…suturing, combined with Mr. Black White’s special eye, allows me to perceive more things.”

“Black White, that’s impressive! You really may help me find the hidden ‘dead spots’.”

For the time being, Jon set aside any prejudices about the two rookies being troublesome or a burden and brought danger, and began to take the task seriously.

They followed the direction that Han Dong had carefully deduced.

Around the bend,

A ghoul with four arms, its body painted with strange curse stripes, crawled out.

Upon discovering the invaders,

The curse stripes on the body of the ghoul immediately emitted a black glow, and even black smoke billowed out from its sharp claws.

It was in a completely different league from common ghouls. It pounced instantly towards the group.

Its muscular arms spread out, bearing cursed claws, and just when it was about to tear apart the intruders in front of it,

An incredible scene occurred.

Only seen as a fleeting shadow by the naked eye, resembling a cheetah pouncing on its prey,

The ghoul launched into the air suffering more than twenty deep lacerations, along with severe bleeding. Green bodily fluids splattered onto the ground and the surrounding capsule surface.

It was an instant kill.

“Amazing!”

Han Dong’s ‘Little Demon Eye’ saw clearly what had transpired in just a moment.

As the ghoul pounced directly at the Night Watch Jon,

His cheetah-like physical ability burst forth, launching a series of ultra-fast attacks.

Even six claw shadows appeared in the air simultaneously…instantly lacerating the ghoul’s vital parts, including the heart, windpipe, skull, and the essential veins of the limbs.

“Next time you’d better be quicker, otherwise even if you can help me find the ‘dead spots’, I won’t pass you… Becoming a [Night Watch] isn’t as simple as you think.”
