Chapter 303: Chapter 303: Curse Assimilation
Han Dong had no particular thoughts about the situation he saw in the bedroom.
After setting down breakfast, he turned around and left.
He was neither excited nor annoyed. He simply believed that it was a good thing for his teammates to be able to relax a bit amidst such high-pressure fate events.
“Abe is still sleeping on the roof, and I need to deal with some ‘private matters’.”
In the blink of an eye.
Han Dong had appeared in the corridor of the Portable Prison.
Currently, Chen Li was wearing the “Prajna Mask” refined by Mr. Aha, refining and absorbing the evil aura, storing it in the “Evil Bead” to enhance her cultivation.
As for Togu, he was relatively idle, reading the Bible while whipping his body with an iron chain.
[Super Clean Biological Research Laboratory]
As soon as Han Dong entered the room, he took off the core injector.
He stored the neuronal Cell Essence from the Flying Head General in a test tube.
As the current “Load Limit” has reached its maximum value.
This Cell Essence could only be stored temporarily for future use.
Han Dong went to a constant temperature incubator on one side and took out a culture medium that he placed the day before.
However, the surface of the culture medium was covered with cell colonies.
It was the Cell Essence from [Prisoner – Ivanoff], which Han Dong had taken one day before and streaked onto the surface of the culture medium… it filled the entire culture medium just one day later.
(No matter how cells are cultured, the total amount of essence remains unchanged, and the increase in Load Value from a single essence sample remains the same)
“There is no electron microscope or matching imaging system here, or else, I could have taken a closer look at the various cellular organelles’ functions and overall vitality.
However, judging from the rate of cell proliferation, it is far higher than that of human cells, and the vitality is terrifyingly strong.”
Han Dong recalled his encounter with [Dead Prisoner – Ivanoff] in the corridor.
Ivanoff’s expertise in human combat techniques gave Han Dong a hard time at first and he even faced life-threatening danger.
Not to mention Ivanoff’s terrifying body, which was resistant to plagues and could easily crush steel and concrete.
If such traits can be successfully transferred to ghouls, crowmen, or other creatures living outside the city via cell culture and genetic engineering, and then cultivated on a large scale.
We could create a terrifying army.”
“These cells are very interesting… I’m going to give them to the Swollen Doctor to research when I get back. If he can’t perform gene splicing… at least try the most basic cell fusion.
The bodies of life forms outside the city are already peculiar, further modified by pollution, their ‘rejection’ of foreign substances should be at its minimum.
If we can properly introduce the cells, allowing ghouls and crowmen to acquire such a physique and fighting skills, at least some of the nuisance creatures would not dare to break into my estate.”
Han Dong sat in a corner of the lab, then turned his attention to the current situation.
“A good start to a five-star full difficulty Strange Tale.
According to the shop owner, I got a [Demon Sword] that can harm higher-order Strange Tales right at the beginning.
Moreover, it seems that Mia has grown in this event, and our team’s combat power has therefore improved.
Luckily, this has brought me closer to ‘Mr. Aha’.
[Mr. Aha’s Shop] itself is a Strange Tale… but its specific positioning is something I need to consider more deeply.
Just from the fact that Mr. Aha can set up ‘shops’ in various areas of the paradise, its essence may originate from some S Level Strange Tale…
Moreover, unlike the clown.
I received a clear hint that my intimacy level with Mr. Aha has reached [Friendly]. This clown guy, though he works with me, his intimacy level has always remained at [Neutral].
Just from this point, Mr. Aha can be trusted.
I hope I can continue to deepen my cooperation with the shop owner in some subsequent missions, and let the intimacy level reach a higher level… by that time, Mr. Aha may become an important reliance for us to leave [Paradise].”
At this point, Han Dong couldn’t help but look at the ‘Clown’s Arm’ bound and strapped to the scanner.
Suddenly.
A red mouth grew out of the Clown’s Arm, roaring angrily:
“You have other ghosts outside!”
Han Dong shook his head, quickly dissipating this bizarre illusion.
“Almost… Next, we’ll quickly earn ‘Strange Tales Points’, purchase the pass and delve deep into [Paradise]…”
As soon as Han Dong returned to the hotel, he saw Winry running anxiously up and down the corridor.
“Deputy… Deputy Captain! Something’s not right with Mia?”
“What’s wrong? Did you two go too rough?”
“No… Deputy captain, you misunderstood, Mia and I don’t have that kind of relationship.
Mia went into the bathroom to wash with the [Demon Blade], suddenly there was a scream, followed by a strong sense of danger emanating from the bathroom.
When I opened the door, Mia was propping herself up next to the sink, the look in her eyes invoked the feeling that she wanted to kill me.
Deputy captain, you better take a look, could Mia have been possessed by yesterday’s female host!”
“Hmm!!”
Hearing this situation, Han Dong also felt a bit uneasy.
After all, the Demon Blade truly contains the soul of [Female Host-Huan]… If the other party really took advantage of Mia’s weakness, it would be troublesome if they occupied her consciousness and body.
Clang!
When Han Dong kicked open the bathroom door,
he found the whole bathroom filled with densely packed cursed scriptures.
Mia was in a complete ‘Spider Woman’ form.
Suspended in mid-air on silk threads shot out from her tail… the Demon Blade lying across her chest, she seemed to be undergoing ‘Curse Assimilation’, trying to control the Demon Blade.
“Winry, guard the door! Don’t let anyone disturb… Mia is accepting this Demon Blade, this process is very important.”
“Oh! Okay.”
Winry, full of vigor, guards the door with her hammer in hand… even the passing waiters get fiercely glared at.
In the bathroom.
Just like Mia once transformed the ‘Cursed Object-Butler’s Bell’.
This self-conscious weapon needs a process of transformation and control to truly become Mia’s possession.
Han Dong, wearing a Raven Feather Coat, hides in the shadows.
Speaking of quality,
this Demon Blade is definitely slightly more powerful than the Butler’s Bell. Mia began the transformation as soon as she recovered, there might be certain dangers… Han Dong will intervene if necessary.
However, the situation was much better than Han Dong expected, the whole process went extraordinarily smoothly.
“Hmm… seems very smooth.
It seems that [Female Host-Huan] was liberated on the mental level yesterday, she won’t be too hard on Mia.”
The cold aura from the Demon Blade and the cursed aura from Mia’s body intertwine and merge… slowly completing the transformation and control of the Demon Blade.
The cursed scriptures scattered in the bathroom are also recollected into Mia’s body.
Interestingly,
just when everything was completed,
a pure white curved horn slowly grew out of Mia’s forehead… it seemed to endow Mia with some kind of ‘ghost’ characteristics.
“Special Fate Equipment ‘Demon Blade-Huan Ghost’ has been acquired.”
