My Cell Prison-Chapter 11 - : Hidden Power

Chapter 11: Chapter 11: Hidden Power

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

As the first floor of the bungalow has been planned as a reception hall, kitchen, activity room, storage room, and a room solely for little brother Daqing, therefore, everyone else could only stay on the second floor.

The rooms on the second floor were simply numbered from 1 to 8, laid out from left to right.

The staircase located in the middle divides the second floor into two sections.

Rooms 1 to 4 are on the left side, and rooms 5 to 8 are on the right side.

The important figures of the [Wang Po Couple] reside in room 4.

Another key figure [Bewitched Woman – Chen Li] is living in room 6… She must return to her room before 8 p.m., moreover, little brother Daqing will lock the door securely with a chain.

As for the reason he locked the door, Daqing did not say directly, but it surely has something to do with Chen Li’s ‘possession’.

Another key character [Little Brother Daqing], as mentioned before, lives on the first floor.

Not to mention whether Wang Po really has the ability to exorcise demons… but based on the current information, it seems that the main subject of this spiritual event is the possessed woman, Chen Li.

Therefore, living on the right side of the second floor is apparently more dangerous than the left side.

I had thought that there would be serious disagreements because of this.

Yet, during the room distribution, Bald Derleon volunteered to occupy the room next to Chen Li’s.

As for the kind-hearted Newspaper Boy Herbert, he signaled that he didn’t care where he stayed.

With the concessions of these two teammates, Edward’s arrangements became quite simple… Thus, the final room arrangements were decided.

The left side of the second floor:

Room 1 – Han Dong.

Room 2 – Blonde Monica

Room 3 – Edward with the Steam Prosthetic Limb

The right side of the second floor:

Room 5 – Newspaper Boy Herbert

Room 7 – Bald Derleon

Room 8 – Follower Arkman

This outcome surprised Han Dong.

The indifferent Han Dong was unexpectedly assigned by Edward to room 1, which was the furthest from ‘Chen Li’ and hypothetically the safest room.

Edward’s reasoning was that Han Dong had the weakest constitution among the team and he was the only one fluent in the Jiuzhou language. It was necessary to ensure Han Dong’s safety.

In addition, there were two more [settings].

(1) There were no toilets in the bungalow; the latrine was fifty meters away from the bungalow.

(2) At 23:00 every night, Little Brother Daqing would cut off the bungalow’s electricity supply and turn it back on at 06:00 the next day. This was because his possessed sister, Chen Li, was sensitive to electric light at night.

These two settings were a bit troublesome.

However… everyone had a solution, if they needed to urinate at night, they could just use the water bottles in their backpacks.

As for the lack of electricity, everyone bought torches before they came. Besides, the cameras provided by the System also had night vision.

Before going to bed, Edward asked all team members to gather in one room.

“Everyone, a friend of mine became an Apprentice Knight last year as a ‘Returner’… He told me about some ‘knowledge’ for first-timers entering the Fate Space.”

“The most important part is, don’t try to interfere with the actions and decisions of the characters in the story, and don’t act against common sense.”

“The more interference, the more complicated the event will become, it might even turn into an ‘unsolvable situation’.”

“I hope everyone plays their role as college students and doesn’t interact with the characters in the story capriciously.”

“Feel free to share your thoughts with me at any time.”

“Understood!”

Edward’s point was to let the plot develop naturally. Everyone except Bald Derleon, who didn’t make a sound, agreed with this.

Edward continued, “Furthermore, I suggest… if you hear any suspicious sounds in the night, never leave your room.”

“The first night should not be too risky, after all, the so-called ‘Return Human Ceremony’ hasn’t started yet, and the plot characters are all relatively normal.”

“As long as everyone stays in their rooms, there shouldn’t be any danger.”

“How can you be so sure there’s no danger… when you’re obviously also a rookie.” Bald Derleon sneered.

Edward replied with a smile, “At least it’s safer to stay in the room than to wander around in the corridors… It’s just a suggestion, I’m not forcing everyone to do it.”

Let’s discuss the other things in detail after tomorrow’s ‘Returner Ceremony’. fre(e)novelkiss

Everyone go rest.”

The temporary meeting was adjourned.

As everyone was leaving, the attractive blond woman, Monica, deliberately stayed in Edward’s room and uttered some ambiguous, probing words.

Unfortunately, Edward’s attitude remained neutral, and the atmosphere gradually became awkward, forcing Monica to retreat to her own room.

Alone, Edward took out a clean cloth, treating it like a ‘lover’, and with a smile on his face, began to wipe his steam prosthetic right arm.

“Four-star evil spirits, just as difficult as I expected… As long as I can become a ‘Returner’, I can successfully become an apprentice knight, starting a step ahead.”

……

Room No.1.

Upon returning to his room, Han Dong immediately locked the door.

Ever since he arrived here, Han Dong had not found a chance to be alone.

The nightmare had left him in a strange state… So, Han Dong was paying a lot of attention to himself.

“What is this?”

With his palms facing him, he slowly activated the [Head of the Faceless] while trying to trigger the weird sensation from the nightmare. freew ebnovel.com

Suddenly, an eerie atmosphere seeped into the room.

Creaking!

A grey-spotted tentacle slowly seeped out of his palm and swayed grotesquely in the air.

“Hidden power?”

Staring at the tentacle, Han Dong was somewhat dumbfounded!

“During the time I escaped from the prison, when I had no physical body, I also relied on the mycelial tentacles protruding from my neck… But this tentacle form is a bit different from that.

This tentacle is thicker and it’s not a mycelium… It gives off an odd smell, it’s very dangerous.”

About ten seconds later.

The tentacle that grew out of his palm turned into a pool of dirty water, dripped and evaporated.

At the same time, a wave of weakness swept over Han Dong’s entire body.

“Cough cough cough… It seems that using this tentacle power puts a great burden on my body.

I must never use it except in situations of extreme danger.”

He used a piece of paper to wipe off the dirty saliva he coughed up from the corner of his mouth.

After a short recovery, Han Dong took out some usable tools from his backpack… A flashlight, and a small knife placed under his pillow.

The knife wasn’t for fighting against evil spirits, but for ‘experimentation’ and self-defense.

Besides the flashlight and the knife, Han Dong’s backpack also contained two sets of country-style clothes, for unknown purposes.

“Edward’s words should be right. As long as we don’t actively disturb the characters in the story, the first night shouldn’t be too dangerous before the ‘Returner Ceremony’… Time to sleep.”

Due to the effects of the nightmare.

Han Dong’s rest on the car was pretty much wasted, plus the use of the strange tentacle ability, the weakened Han Dong urgently needed sleep.

He fell asleep not long after lying on the bed.

This time, he didn’t have any nightmares.

However, the sound of footsteps echoing in the corridor and the crying of a baby abruptly woke Han Dong up in the middle of the night.

A power cut.

The room was pitch black.

However, the red lantern in the corridor was still lit.

Some idiot designer had a hole the size of a head in the center of the door and filled it with transparent glass.

Clearly visible under the light of the red lantern.

A black-haired woman carrying a child walked past the door.
