My Cell Prison-Chapter 404 - : Overturned
Chapter 404: Chapter 404: Overturned
“Mist”, the movie, within two hours, fully displayed the helplessness, fear, and despair of humanity.
However, it made little, if any, exposition on the origin of the mist and the monster, leaving it up to the audience’s interpretation.
In Han Dong’s view, the ending was unsatisfactory.
Such terrifying organisms eliminated entirely within a short time by the army alone? Han Dong didn’t think so.
Remember, these soldiers were the first batch of humans to come into contact with the mist and the monsters.
……
[Mythical Phase]
“Indeed… Once the plot comes to a crucial node, the omen will reveal itself.”
While the townspeople’s attention was focused on the slowly approaching army, Han Dong sneakily made his way to an empty warehouse.
The Omen card and the metal dice were taken out simultaneously.
This time, the card was imprinted with three white octopus marks, making it significantly more challenging than the Cold Spider event.
Dice-[2]
“Values unequal, Omen reveals.”
[Omen-Deep Sea Shadow]
Fear: ★★★
Origin: Terrifying life forms lurking in every corner of the deep sea, all worshiping an ancient deity older than many planets, need to come ashore periodically to find suitable sacrificial offerings.
Special Traits: Unknown (Omen has high degree of concealment)
Requirement: The male protagonist (David), at least four supermarket staff and over ten civilians must survive and return to the supermarket, otherwise the corresponding Omen value cannot be obtained.
“Is the explanation of the omen different from last time?!
The location and the upcoming events aren’t mentioned, and the characteristics of the life form we’re about to encounter are hidden… Is it because they are originally in a ‘hidden’ state?
Also, the [Requirement] indirectly implies that civilians should survive and return to the supermarket in as large a number as possible…. does this suggest that there’s a problem with the incoming army?”
Upon thinking of this, Han Dong immediately went to the warehouse’s vent and drank an Energy Supplement Potion in one gulp.
Caw…
“Raven”
A large number of living crows, created by magic, emerged from Han Dong’s palm and flew out of the vent.
Having made all necessary preparations, Han Dong returned to the supermarket lobby.
The supermarket door had been completely opened, and all the townspeople had already boarded the military’s large transport trucks, their faces showing relief after prior anxiousness and unsettlement.
Including the protagonist, everyone believed that the danger had passed.
David, the male protagonist, hurriedly waved to Han Dong in the supermarket:
“Nicholas, hurry up and get in the truck… They said they need to take us to the nearest military area for disinfection and comprehensive body checkups, to ensure we haven’t been infected by the monsters.”
“Hmm…”
Staring at the soldiers wearing gas masks, Han Dong felt a sense of discomfort as though he was being ‘watched’.
In each corner of the large transport truck, a soldier was assigned as a guardian… Although they seemed to provide protection, in reality, it felt as if they were monitoring the townspeople on the truck.
There were two armored vehicles trailing behind.
Han Dong quickly observed some strange details.
1. Including the driving soldier, all their eyes were fixed on the people in the transport truck, and they never shifted away.
2. The soldiers standing at four corners of the truck had damp hems of trouser legs and military shoes, and one even had a piece of coral sticking to his ankle.
3. It was hard to find any ‘connection point’ on the gas masks worn on the soldiers’ faces, creating an illusion that the masks ‘grew’ on their faces.
Taking into account the hints from the Omen as well as the speculation about the movie’s plot.
Han Dong was eighty percent certain that the issue lay with these soldiers.
The requirements mentioned that ultimately they would need to return to the [Supermarket]… The longer the delay on the transport truck, the further they would be from the supermarket, and action would have to be taken quickly.
Caw caw caw…
At some point, the area above everyone’s heads had been covered by crows.
A dense flock of crows, at least a thousand…
Without a word, the soldiers pointed their weapons towards the crows, including the flamethrowers used for incineration of the bug nest.
However, the crows created by Han Dong had undergone special modifications.
Knowing in advance that these soldiers would use the flamethrowing devices, Han Dong unilaterally strengthened the crows using magic, enhancing their fire-resistance abilities.
Only a handful of crows were shot down by the bullets.
Breaking through the flames, they tore savagely at the soldiers with their sharp beaks.
“Huh!?”
When the crows bit into the soldiers’ gas masks, they actually tore a wound, from which a transparent, stinky fluid began to ooze…
Disguise.
It was now certain that this group of soldiers had been disguised by monsters.
The commonplace weapons could not hold back the frenzied attack of the crows.
The soldiers shed their disguises, transforming into horrifying monsters with cylindrical snouts on their faces, similar in appearance to gas masks.
Swish!!
The physical transformation was even more terrifying.
Their backs completely split open, octopus tentacles dotted with deep blue spots sprung out from their spinal areas.
These suction-cup structured tendrils would latch onto any crow that got too close and rapidly drain them dry.
Fortunately, the crow population was large enough to continue disrupting their plans.
The dissipating mist, with the unveiling of the ‘soldier’s’ true form, began to thicken once more.
“Mon… monsters! These soldiers are monsters!”
As soon as someone shouted this, the townsfolk on the transport truck began to panic.
It was at that point.
Han Dong hoisted a fire axe he had previously prepared. To match the character he was playing, he shouted loudly:
“Motherfucker!! Die, you disgusting monsters.”
He was brimming with vigour.
He aimed the axe at the nearest long-beaked soldier and brutally swung. Of course, this swing was coupled with the strength provided by the G-virus, enough to split a transport truck open.
Swish!
The ugly head soared high, then the flock of crows dragged the headless body away from the truck.
Successfully killed one of the octopus soldiers.
Han Dong’s action had quickly calmed some of the extremely suspicious townsfolk.
There were only four monster soldiers on the transport truck… now, Han Dong had taken care of one.
At this point, ‘Main Character David,’ a leadership persona secretly cultivated by Han Dong, took charge.
“Let’s take advantage of the crows’ distraction and dispatch the monster soldiers on this truck… if we can gain control of the transport, we can quickly drive back to the supermarket and hold our ground.”
Under David’s empowering halo.
Immediately ten people cooled down, retrieved the weapons they had prepared in the supermarket, and counterattacked…
But… things weren’t that simple.
“Ah! Help… Help me!!”
Just as a muscular man holding a chainsaw cut into a soldier’s shoulder, he was promptly wrapped up by octopus tentacles…
Sizzling! Starting from where the suction cups adhered, his body swiftly deteriorated, dissolving into a puddle of skeletal remains in three seconds.
Within a minute.
Six townsfolk died in despair.
Having revealed their true form, the magical crows find it hard to damage these Deep Sea Clan members and die in great numbers.
There are many challenges with the Omen.
One of them is that Han Dong can’t utilize his abilities openly, or the explanation afterwards to these movie characters might derail the plot.
“If we continue to stay in the confined space of the transport, all the townsfolk will soon be killed… I have no other choice.”
Han Dong secretly controls the yellow sand, forming a tall mound of sand in front of the transport truck.
“Hold on tight everyone!!!”
Boom!
The transport truck flips over.
The crows, during this process, did their best to ensure the townsfolk weren’t harmed by the fall… while the aberrated octopus soldiers were flung out of the truck because of the flip.
This sudden overturning gives the townspeople the chance to catch their breath and escape. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
The only drawback of doing this is that they’ll need to walk back to the supermarket…
