My Cell Prison
Chapter 918 - Chapter 918 Chapter 917 Confronting Fear

Chapter 918: Chapter 917: Confronting Fear Chapter 918: Chapter 917: Confronting Fear Maritzis’s “Water” possessed healing traits and had reattached the severed arm to the wound.

The G virus was also aiding in the continuation of the arm, performing cellular level division and regeneration, coordinating the connection of nerves.

At the same time,

having his arm torn off alive,

this bone-deep pain significantly stimulated Han Dong’s brain, causing his “fear emotions” to greatly recede.

Recalling how he had just pressed down on the monster’s head, letting his companions escape without regard to himself, a terrifying thought suddenly emerged in Han Dong’s mind.

“Dumps! Change the route, run along the safer areas first… I have an idea!”

“Hmm? At this point, what idea could you possibly have?”

The map derivation had been completed, and all members had voted to move to the lower level, while Han Dong himself had sacrificed an arm as the price for his teammates’ complete escape.

Now, by following the route map to the stairway on the far right, they could leave this floor and escape the pursuit of the ‘White Finger Lady’.

“During the contact in the hospital room, I’m certain the ‘White Finger Lady’ can be killed.”

“Didn’t we agree to focus on finding the exit to complete the ‘Promotion Competition’?”

At this critical juncture, Dumps and Han Dong had a divergence of opinion.

Moreover, the entire squad was deeply influenced by fear, favoring the option to flee.

“Trust me this once, killing her might just reveal clues to the exit! Or it might even gain us some advantage…”

“How sure are you?” Dumps looked quite unhappy because he truly couldn’t afford to lose.

“As long as everyone can restrain the impact of fear and follow my plan completely… the success rate is over fifty percent.

First, Miss Mary and I will hold this thing off.

Then, Dumps, you take Abe and Mia to charge forward at full speed, move through the square hospital passage to the target’s rear… and perform a pincer attack on her.”

“I’ll trust you this once…”

Demon, activated.

With only the ability to exert 5% of potential,

the Demon’s display was a series of blue crystal-like blood vessels, prominent beneath the skin.

But, for the ordinary body, the enhancement was still considerable.

Overall speed increased by 20%, and the efficiency of spell casting also increased by 20%.

While activating the Demon, Dumps, in a similar manner, jabbed his fingers into his temples, restraining the invasion of ‘fear’ to the greatest extent.

Leading the two members quickly down the square hallway, they circled around to the target’s rear as quickly as possible.

…

On Han Dong’s end, his right arm had fully recovered.

Together with Miss Mary, using the same ‘throwing trash’ approach, they tried to slow down the ‘White Finger Lady’s’ speed while urging her:

“Mary, I’ll need you to provide support for me the whole time.

Try your best to transfer your internal ‘Magic Energy’ to me… my ability can inflict significant damage on this thing.”

The back of the ‘White Finger Lady’s’ head carried a distinct palm print.

It was the injury caused by Han Dong while pinning her under the bed, and where the palm print lay, hair could not grow.

“Okay… I’ll lend you the ‘Toad Pearl’ in a bit.”

“Toad Pearl? Alright…” Right now, Han Dong didn’t have the time to ask what the Toad Pearl was, as long as it could normally replenish his magic.

To kill this theoretically invincible entity of fear,

Han Dong’s own energy was clearly insufficient… he had to rely on Maritzis’s supplementation.

This was also something he had learned from the Capital City Squad.

Han Dong planned to train Maritzis into a similar ‘mobile power source’ that could be plugged in to charge.

Seeing a white shadow appear behind the monster signaled that Dumps and the others were almost circling to the monster’s rear, and the plan was officially put into action.

Han Dong first shouted, “Leave this monster to me to restrain… You all do whatever it takes to sever all her fingers!”

The sound reached the ears of his teammates.

Those who had circled to the rear also began to reveal their attack stances.

Abe’s spine protruded completely from his back, covered by a piece of vital armor in the style of a ‘Beast’.

At the same time, ‘a single claw’ that was fused with Abe’s traits of Dragon Scales grew at the tip of his left and right fists.

Mia also immediately took down the bone knife she carried on her back.

But.

Even as she grasped the hilt with both hands, she still trembled due to fear.

At that moment, Dumps’s whisper reached their ears, “Endure!”

Without any pity.

Dumps’s fingers penetrated the temples of Mia and Abe in the same way, stimulating and massaging their brains… Only such extreme measures could restrain their fear, enabling them to execute the plan and perform at their normal strength.

After a bout of pain, their bodies no longer trembled, and their gazes were resolute.

At the same moment, Han Dong’s preparations had also been completed.

Maritzis pulled out from her body a pure, flawless green crystal pearl with her tongue, the “Toad Pearl” she had spoken of… As she handed it over, a severe weakness swept through her body.

If there had not been a wall to support her, she might have collapsed to the ground.

“Toad Pearl”

During their growth, Toad Demons undergo periodic shedding of skin, recording their growth experiences as textual descriptions through dot-like protrusions embossed on their Toad Clothes… It was also a way of abandoning the past.

The walls covered with Toad Clothes could then be observed by others, allowing the younger generation to gain experience and insights through reading the texts and designs on the Toad Skin, thus accelerating their growth.

During shedding.

They also condensed their body’s essence.

When reaching the Demon Stage, the individual would form a “Toad Pearl” within their body.

Shedding meant discarding unnecessary parts, while the formation of pearls was the collection of necessary parts.

The importance of the Toad Pearl was comparable to the knights’ Talent Tree, being a source of all energy.

To align with Han Dong’s plan.

Maritzis had even taken out the extremely important Toad Pearl from her body to lend to an outsider.

If others from Toad City knew about this, Maritzis’s status as an Ancestor Body would also be affected.

“You… you swallow the ‘Toad Pearl’.

With your adaptability, you should be able to harness the ‘Magic Energy’ stored within the Toad Pearl.

This is quite precious, so don’t disappoint your Lord…” Maritzis said with the last of her strength, only a very weak gaze remaining as she watched Han Dong.

“Okay.”

As Han Dong swallowed the Toad Pearl,

Thump! The sound of his beating heart was clearly audible.

Granules, similar to those on a Toad’s skin, erupted on the surface of his skin, as murky energy tried to contaminate Han Dong’s entire body, with his calves also slowly thickening, gradually changing toward the Toad’s shape.

However.

With the rotation of the Black Whirlpool on his abdominal surface.

The perfectly adaptable Body Trunk quickly suppressed the side effects of swallowing the Toad Pearl.

Simultaneously.

A black groove emerged at the center of the Black Whirlpool within the inner abdomen, created to stabilize and carry the Toad Pearl.

Energy source connected successfully.

A vast energy system spread from the abdomen, giving Han Dong the feeling as if he had received a second “Gift Tree.”

“Could this… the Toad Pearl possibly be…”

At this thought, Han Dong also shuddered.

He had never expected that the Demon Miss, already an Ancestor Body, would be willing to provide such a ‘core’ to replenish his magic.
