My Cell Prison
Chapter 937 - Chapter 937 Chapter 936 The Heir

Chapter 937: Chapter 936: The Heir Chapter 937: Chapter 936: The Heir “It hurts…”

To create a sense of realism, Han Dong had Maritzis disable her regenerative abilities, resulting in her ribs nearly bursting and her insides in chaos.

The final recovery was left to Mary to complete, enduring the severe pain alone.

Staring at Maritzis sitting alone on the surface of the cryogenic chamber.

To some extent, she was almost indistinguishable from humans… Of course, this was only when she was with Han Dong.

Seeing that Mary could handle the injury on her own, Han Dong did not help, but rather thought about what to do next.

“It’s pretty certain, this guy’s ultimate goal is the life emanating divinity in the Temple, which is also the divine force I sensed outside the Temple.

Also capable of ‘perfect imitation’, the two teammates he brought had transformed into a type of upper-rank Alien.

Once fully recovered, Novikov’s next step would be to head to the core area of the Temple.

It seems this guy knows all about the City of Gods, including this White Giant’s temple… Maybe he had cleared the ‘Alien’ movies in the past, and had already established a connection with this place.

If he really gets his hands on the Alien Creation with divine nature, then our role in the World of Fate would basically be over.

To stop this guy, we only have one chance… We still have an advantage.”

Crack~!

At that moment, Maritzis manually moved her last rib back into place.

“Maritzis, those two white Alien-like creatures just now, can you handle them alone?”

“Of course I can… but I can’t guarantee that I can kill them completely.”

“Being able to handle them is good, soon we might face them head-on.

When the time comes, I’ll take care of Novikov. Although I’m three ranks below him, under the [20%] limit, the gap in our levels is substantially narrowed.

He’s prepared to deal with the White Giant Temple, but he’s not prepared to deal with us.”

“When do you plan to make your move?

What if the creatures in the Temple attack us while we’re at it?”

“Don’t worry, as long as we appear at the right place, at the right time… the things in the Temple won’t see us as enemies.”

“What do you mean?”

When Han Dong shared his analysis and thoughts, Maritzis was also surprised.

“You… have been thinking like this from the start?”

“The ‘Pharaoh’s’ seat is not so easy to occupy, otherwise the eyes of the Terror Source High Priest wouldn’t be filled with decades of dissatisfaction.

According to the records in the Pyramid Library, this Pharaoh has been in the upper rank for a hundred years.

According to the system in the City of Gods, those who are capable can occupy the corresponding position.

Over so many years, many participants of Fate have come here, but no one has been able to shake the Pharaoh’s position.

The leader of the Hell Knight Corps, Marlon, had already made contact with Hell long ago, disappearing from the human world for decades in his ambition to become the ‘Hell King.’

To sit in the Pharaoh’s position by conventional means is almost impossible.

One must take extraordinary measures, measures that other participants cannot think of or achieve, to stand a chance at taking that seat.”

With Han Dong’s ambitious speech, a peculiar feeling also stirred within Maritzis.

“Hmph… it’s not that simple! Anyway, I made it clear, I’m not doing anything especially dangerous… Our primary goal is to find artifacts that can restrain the ‘Shackles of Lassitude’ affecting the Toad.”

“We need to delve deeper to possibly obtain the corresponding artifacts.

If we let Novikov achieve his goal, not only will we get nothing, but we might also die here… Let’s go!”

Han Dong pointed to the ventilation duct broken open by Novikov, following the scent left within.

…

White Giant’s Temple – Ninth Rib.

This was the highest area within the Temple that most staff were allowed to access, reached only by the Spinal Elevator.

Any further up would surpass the Rib Layer, arriving at the Temple’s core Skull Layer.

The Elders of the White Giants and the Chief Research Officer were inside, and it also harbored their pinnacle of technology, a unique biotechnology only the White Giants could master and operate.

To advance further, identity verification was required.

Even a perfect imitation of a white alien android would be powerless; only the authorized White Giant Elders possessed the special key to open the passage to the Skull Layer.

A sound emanated from a storage room within the Ninth Rib.

Familiar with the Temple’s layout as if it were a maze, Novikov navigated successfully through the ventilation ducts to this level.

Since Novikov had disappeared on the first floor, most humans focused their search in the middle and lower levels.

Moreover, the biological door set up in the Skull Layer couldn’t be opened without the key.

Even if one happened to enter, it was akin to jumping into a net, as the highest-ranked White Giants and top-level entities were inside, capable of instantly killing any intruders.

However,

Novikov appeared completely confident.

Before him stood a door made of biological bone, emitting waves of green light, radiating an almost endless vitality.

If this door were struck, it would grow a massive fleshly defense layer at the point of impact, blocking the next strike.

It could be said that the more it was struck, the harder and thicker it became.

Only a burst of power far exceeding the hardness of the door could possibly break through this barrier.

In a situation with limited abilities, even Novikov, a fifth-level Engineer, couldn’t break through–however…

A key resembling a spine was slowly pulled out of Novikov’s mouth.

The key, a full meter in length, was inserted directly into the center of the door!

Click–

The gate to the Skull Layer opened.

The staircase revealed before his eyes consisted of bone fragments suspended in the air by neural filaments.

Han Dong’s guess was right.

The reason Novikov was so familiar with “Prometheus” was precisely because he had previously completed “Alien,” and it was even a chain event.

He found the remnants of the White Giants, learned about the information on this planet through inscriptions and hidden tasks, and even received acknowledgment from an Elder of the White Giants.

That’s where the Spinal Key came from.

Novikov, leading a team of two Crown Prince Aliens, climbed the staircase to the highest hall within the Skull Layer.

This was the conference venue for the council of White Giant Elders.

Around them stood precisely [36], hundred-meter-high bone seats, with a huge White Giant wearing white alien armor seated in each one.

Directly in front, corresponding to the most famous giant human head sculpture from the movie “Prometheus.”

Because Novikov produced the Spinal Key, which only the ‘Elders’ were supposed to have, the current White Giant Elders were in heated discussion.

At that moment, Novikov adjusted his vocal cords and spoke in a unique language of the White Giants, “I have traveled countless miles inheriting Elder [Novikov]’s will, only to accept your ultimate creation.”

Upon these words,

The discussion among the Elders became even more intense.

They were reluctant to hand over the Divine Creation they had painstakingly nurtured, the only support for reclaiming the City of Gods… but within the laws of the White Giants, the Supreme Will that Novikov had inherited entitled him to receive their creation.

Just then,

The same language of the White Giants echoed from the entrance of the Temple, and the tone made Novikov feel like he had heard it somewhere before.

“He is merely a [World Traveler]; the Divine Creation is your only pillar to reclaim your territories… There’s no need to give it to a passerby.”
