My Cell Prison-Chapter 491 - : Rubik’s Cube
Chapter 491: Chapter 491: Rubik’s Cube
Han Dong stared as Dumps charged into the battlefield alone.
Even Captain Lucius stood perplexed.
Against such a large-scale army of Insect Transformers, even Lucius, a Blood Knight whose Talent Tree had been nurtured with the “Royal Blood Brew,” had no confidence of emerging victorious.
After all, physical prowess had its limit for any creature, and such a massive army could exhaust even the most formidable of warriors.
Elder Miz Crow, who had just returned, approached Han Dong. It seemed to detect a unique scent from Dumps and made some conjectures about his identity.
“True to the Messenger’s reputation, he knows such characters…”
“Hmm? Elder, can you decipher any special traits about Dumps?”
“Merely with my ‘Crow’s Eye’, I cannot see through him… However, I perceive a distinct aura from him, combining this with the ancient rumors about Gaine Forest, I can speculate certain information about him.”
“Out with it then.”
“He emanates a primal force, so powerful that even us Crowmen instinctively keep our distance. After considering the rumors from the forest and ancient texts passed down in the crow tribes, I suspect that this young man might have some connection with the [New King].
Currently, it’s just a guess and cannot be confirmed.
After all, anecdotes and records about the New King only exist in antiquated texts… ”
“The New King?”
“They’re a group capable of contending with the Old Kings for sovereignty… How they came to be and why they came to be are both mysteries. However, their existence is certain and serves to do away with Old Kings who are overly obsessed with power.”
“Competitive forces, huh… Well! We’ll discuss the specifics after this war is over.”
Han Dong quietly took note of the term, [New King], focusing intently on Dumps’ ensuing performance… eager to see how this ‘massage therapist’ plans to counter this terrifying Blood Heirloom Army.
…
Time rewound back to the moment when Dumps secretly departed the Scarlet Manor with his ‘Finger Clone’, venturing into the mysterious structure lodged within the cliff.
“Mother, my ‘friend’ intends to declare war against his affiliated [CH.F] Scarlet Manor… I wish to support him but with my current means, I can hardly offer any substantial help. I wonder if I could receive some assistance from you. Perhaps, I need to face off against a fully grown demon.”
The being he was speaking to was the mysterious entity who always met him outside the city, the owner of the movable mansion and the one Dumps verbally addressed as ‘Mother,’ [The Lady].
Standing at approximately two meters tall, she was clad in a long white dress.
Her distinguishing feature was the four unique arms that she had.
The upper arms covered her eyes and mouth.
The lower arms covered her left and right ears.
‘Mother’s’ body was in a semi-floating state, with only a toe of one foot in contact with the ground.
With Dumps’ request, ‘Mother’ rotated the hand that covered her mouth by 180 degrees, revealing a crimson hued mouth in her palm.
Dozens of tiny tentacle-like tongues crammed the mouth, with some tongues even attached to teeth. The image from within the mouth could inflict potent mental pollution.
‘Mother’ wove her multiple tongues into a net, forming a high-level language that ordinary people could hardly comprehend.
“Since you intend to help him, then do it… That burdensome Old King is not much better. freewebnøvel.coɱ
Indeed, the rewards of aiding your friend far outweigh the costs you would have to bear.
To confront the Scarlet Manor directly, you would need a powerful artifact.
You have stayed in the Holy City for quite a while and have learned a lot from the [Library] and [Fate Space], combined with your inherent power and the power of destiny you possess, you should be able to marshal this artifact, albeit with difficulty.
Follow me…”
The palm turned back and covered the mouth again.
With a single toe sliding across the ground, ‘Mother’ led Dumps deeper into the wooden house.
The interior of the house far surpassed the visible dimensions observed from the outside.
Multiple rooms overlapped each other, forming a complex configuration similar to a labyrinth.
“What is this!?”
“It can cope with all sorts of unexpected situations, but ensure to return it once you are done… Using this artifact will deplete all your strength and can also result in side-effects that last for a couple of days.
You need to be well-prepared before using it.
Also, take this opportunity to sign the second deed of the corresponding land in the Scarlet Manor. It will be beneficial for your ascension to the throne in the future.”
“Thank you, Mother…”
…
Walking within the Pale Battlefield.
Staring at the looming dense blood fog directly ahead, Dumps remained calm.
Slowly, he took out the dark gold, irregularly shaped peculiar cube given to him by ‘Mother’ from his waist.
Dumps needed to insert all twelve fingers into the cube’s slots to decipher it… Apart from the basic energy supply, it also involves the dimensions of ‘cognition’ and ‘knowledge’.
Only when all requirements are met can the cube be controlled and activated.
And the strange thing is,
It seems that only Dumps can see the existence of the cube.
Others, due to the influences of different dimensions, simply cannot perceive such an object.
The decoding is complete.
The activated cube floats beside Dumps, moving forward with him.
The distance was closing in.
800 meters…
500 meters…
300 meters…
100 meters…
Once within a hundred meters, the blood fog had already covered Dumps.
The housekeeper leading in the front did not take such a young man seriously. He just regarded him as a sacrificial offering from the opposing manor who couldn’t resist the Blood Heirloom Army.
The housekeeper waved his hand.
A ‘wood-section insect limb’ capable of infinite extension suddenly stretched out… Such a sharp insect limb had previously pierced through more than ten wild centipedes instantly.
Its speed and piercing power were something ordinary lifeforms could not resist.
However…
Ding!
A sharp collision sound resonated.
A ripple spread out from a meter in front of Dumps.
The insect limb hit an invisible barrier and could not penetrate it.
Even the sharp tip of the insect limb was completely broken off and chipped by the counter-force, and droplets of bloody fluid fell down.
The housekeeper turned his head 180°in confusion.
Thousands of insect transformers, seemingly with the housekeeper’s permission, all rushed towards Dumps a hundred meters away. They extended their mouthparts, trying to be the first to drain Dumps’ blood.
In addition to a full meal, they might even receive a reward from the Insect Ancestor.
Facing the swarming insects,
Dumps simply held out his right arm with an indifferent expression.
The cube floated on its own over his palm, fully activated by his sixth finger.
Due to being in different dimensions, other beings couldn’t see the cube.
They could only glimpse a spatial vortex forming in Dumps’ palm… The approaching insect-transformed Blood Descendants couldn’t resist at all. Their bodies were distorted and sucked into it, similar to the effect of a black hole.
In the blink of an eye…
Thousands of the Blood Heirloom Army disappeared from the battlefield.
Only the housekeeper, whose head had turned 720° and was completely unable to understand the current situation, was left.
