My Cell Prison
Chapter 987 - Chapter 987 Chapter 986 No Light

Chapter 987: Chapter 986: No Light Chapter 987: Chapter 986: No Light While Han Dong was establishing his image as the leader of the rebellion in the civilian area,

Pharaoh Ed Louis was also not idle despite having abandoned the civilian area and shifting the main battlefield to the “First Ring and Pyramid Area,” but he was also making other moves in secret.

The death of a High Priest, the defection of two High Priests, and the failed invasion of the God of Wind shook Ed’s confidence and kindled a certain anxiety in his heart.

At the moment, the priest responsible for gathering information was reporting the situation.

“According to information from deceased probationary priests and leaders of related organizations in the civilian area, the area is infiltrated with a large number of residents from that strange town, each possessing terrifying and bizarre powers.

Moreover, the transmission reports from the wormholes suggest that most of the residents have already left town.

We could attempt a flanking move, take over their town… perhaps cutting off the energy source of these strange town residents, or finding their identification and even information about their vulnerabilities in the town.”

Ed nodded.

“Once we attack the town, the residents in the civilian area will definitely rush back to defend it quickly.

We also need to consider the Spatial Transfer of the ‘Ancestor Body’… I will conduct a lightning raid.

Before the raid, I will send people to blockade the space around the town.

The lightning raid will be limited to five minutes.

Once the time is up, regardless of progress, we will immediately withdraw troops… I still want to focus the main battlefield on the Pyramid.

After all, they must explore the Pyramid and defeat me to win the Node War. Just fending off the outside is not necessary.”

“A lightning raid? Whom do you wish to send, my lord?”

“Are the ‘Biological remains’ ready?”

“As per your orders, they have been ready for a long time… Pharaoh, will you go personally? Although the remains are just linked to your consciousness, there are still risks.

If your consciousness cannot escape before death, it could cause severe trauma to your original consciousness.”

“The ‘Biological remains’ were made based on my template and are set to perform at around 80% of my strength… Since it’s a war at the same node level, I don’t think there is anything that can kill me instantly.”

“Pharaoh, which High Priest do you need to accompany you in the lightning raid? I will inform them now.”

“No need, let the High Priests stay in the Pyramid, ready for battle… I will take ten ‘Embryo Priests’ to scout the situation in town.

As long as I can find the town’s ‘Data Interface’, all information and vulnerabilities about these town residents will be under my control.”

“Please be careful, Lord Pharaoh!

This town is so secretive that even the ‘Eye of Horus’ has trouble peering into it.

To be able to compress the world within the confines of a town, the node holder must be someone special.”

“That’s exactly why I don’t want to commit our core forces.

If something happens to me in town, it’s only a loss of a Biological remains and ten Embryo Priests who can be reconstructed.”

About ten minutes passed.

The priest in front of him received the information and immediately reported:

“Pharaoh!

The ‘Biological remains’ and Embryo Priests have been transported through the underground passage to a safe area two hundred meters from the town, and basic adjustments have been completed. You can link at any time.”

“Mmm.”

Ed, from “Turing Modeling”, who was already proficient in information transmission, had built the biological neural network of the City of Gods even before becoming Pharaoh.

But from Ed’s perspective, the neural networks set up in the City of Gods were a tangled mess; after ascending, he spent several years time to rebuild the network of the City of Gods.

A black metal line immediately extended from his cerebellum and connected to the Pyramid’s independent network.

In an instant.

Ed Louis appeared on the concrete road two hundred meters from Another Derry Town, in a biological exoskeleton armor looking similar to his own.

Since it was modeled after Ed himself, it could exert almost the same abilities.

Also, transported by underground facilities next to Ed, came ten large eggs and ten robustly selected slaves.

The eggs, sensing the presence of a host, immediately hatched a white, smooth Facehugger that latched onto the faces of the slaves.

“Alien Technology”

Apart from the technology of making gods, it was a rapid cultivation method.

In a short time.

The bodies of the slaves split open in the middle, with Human Form white-skinned beings crawling out.

The beings that were born were not alien; they were also a type of Human Form life, decorated with intricate ‘Human Point Line Diagrams’, looking like carefully designed individuals.

Each possessed the powers of a ‘Formal Priest’.

The most important point was that these slightly smaller Embryo Priests could serve as personal nutrition for the Pharaoh.

Metal interfaces were equipped in the back of their necks, which allowed Ed to connect via data cables to achieve energy replenishment, Super Fast Regeneration, and other special traits.

Thus, Ed, with the intention of not losing a single soldier, went to Other Derry Town trying to obtain detailed information about the residents in advance.

As [Demon Spirit-Alessa] had left, the Silent Hill effect that enveloped Other Derry Town was completely lifted, removing the shrouding white fog.

But there was still something very odd.

In the City of Gods, there was an artificial sun created by the Temple of the Sun God… Currently, the sun was shining directly on the City of Gods.

Yet, Other Derry Town was in total darkness, as no light could penetrate it.

“Some kind of lightless boundary?

Or does the town itself exist in a separate world, having its own world system, hence it is not affected by external environments…”

Guided by “biological remains,” the Pharaoh, unconcerned, led the embryo priests into the town.

Sizzling~ The street lamps seemed to have unstable voltage, flickering continuously.

Just stepping in felt like completely leaving the City of Gods and entering another world…

[Palm Street]

The streets were deserted, and all odd scents had disappeared.

Metallic filaments grew from the back of the Pharaoh, numbering in the thousands, each end equipped with a high-definition camera, meticulously searching the buildings on both sides of the street.

On one hand, it was searching whether there were any residents left.

On the other hand, it was seeking any network cable interfaces to quickly obtain relevant data.

“As expected, all the residents had already joined the war? Perhaps related data was also destroyed…”

Just then.

The flickering street lamps abruptly went out.

Due to the absolute Field of No Light isolating everything, even if Ed tried to present the surroundings through data simulation, what he got was still just darkness.

Homemade light sources, including biological light sources, flashlights, or primitive torches, were all useless; light couldn’t spread out and was rejected by the lightless area.

Just as Ed was feeling uneasy and preparing to temporarily exit the town,

Sizzling~ the street lamps lit up again.

The embryo priests that had been following beside him had disappeared…

At the same time, right at the far end of Ed’s gaze, under a lamp ten lights away… as the light flickered, one could vaguely see a thin, suit-clad, Faceless man.

“What is that?”

Ed was about to activate the high-definition cameras to enhance his vision and carefully observe this man when,

The street lamps went out again.

About five seconds later, when the street lamps lit up again… the slender figure had moved further, standing under [the ninth lamp].

Ed sensed a danger he had never felt before and immediately turned to flee, trying to leave the town.

Click~ The streetlights went out again.

Even though Ed changed direction and ran a distance backward, when the street lamps lit up again, the slender figure was still right in front, under [the eighth lamp].

This slow approach felt like a countdown, and at its end, it would declare Ed’s death.

Ed dared not gamble, especially with the war that was about to erupt around the ring… He decisively gave up on the plan to invade the town.

However…

{Abnormal data waves detected, inability to sever Consciousness Connection}

“What! This is my own consciousness, my own laid connection lines… Can this lightlessness affect data layer transmission?

What in the world is this?!”

As the street lamps flickered, the slender figure was getting closer.

Seeing that there was only one lamp’s distance left.

Ed gritted his teeth and detonated the built-in biological energy cell of the ‘biological remains’… exploding completely in a burst of light!

The instantaneous burst of high-level photon emission managed to disperse the ‘Field of No Light’ to an extent.

Seizing this opportunity, Ed successfully transmitted his consciousness back to his main body.

Sitting in [the Pyramid-Eye of God Room], Ed’s body trembled with a flicker of fear in his eyes, steaming all over, breathing heavily… he immediately issued an order!

“Forbid anyone from approaching the town! Focus on the upcoming war!”

…

Other Derry Town – Mayor’s Office.

The Mayor, holding a well-preserved remains skull, found a space in the storage cabinet to set it down, marking it with the inscription “Prometheus”, keeping it as a memento.
