My Cell Prison - Chapter 1570: 1568: Team Assembled

Chapter 1570: Chapter 1568: Team Assembled

[Ring Railway Train]

A pair of men and women sat in a row of seats, though there were empty seats available, none dared to sit there.

Firstly, because they wore gold-rimmed badges representing the Inner City Investigative Team on their chests,

Secondly, a disquieting aura emanated from them,

The Black Goat Sally, who usually glued herself to Han Dong, deliberately kept a distance this time, sitting at the edge of the row, holding onto a vertical pole, silent throughout.

The pole she was gripping even showed signs of black corrosion.

Green sat in the middle, trying to make up for his lack of rest with slumber, arms spread in his seat, as an eerie snore exceeding the octave frequency emitted continuously from his body’s openings… This was the reason why the carriage was nearly empty.

As for Han Dong, who had already healed and rested, he was adjusting the blood within his body to ensure the Holy Sword attribute was fully activated.

‘No problem, the Holy Sword attribute is fully awakened… Next time when we face the group from [Takamagahara], let me restrain Keigo.’

When he slowly opened his eyes, Han Dong finally noticed that Sally was quite far from him, and her expression seemed a bit off.

“Sally, are you not quite adapting to the [bloodline]?”

“No… the bloodline perfectly matches my body, no rejection whatsoever.”

“Oh, that’s good.”

Seeing Han Dong had no intention to continue, Sally couldn’t help but ask:

“Nicholas, do you dislike the opposite sex?”

“Hmm? Why ask this all of a sudden?”

“Just felt you’re quite strange… before we met, you seemed to have been partnered with Miss Mary for a long time.

In private, I understand from her that although you had pretty close interactions, you seemed completely uninterested.”

“Well~ maybe it relates to my essence, as I entered World S-01 in cellular form.

Moreover, I won’t spend much time on emotional issues until I achieve some goals… Currently, we are at a critical node, not just in our world, but millions of multiverse worlds are at this node.

What seems stable now might break at any moment… If I don’t grasp the time, when an unforeseeable catastrophe suddenly arrives, I won’t be able to steer my own Fate.”

“What node? Catastrophe, are you talking about an invasion of our World of Fate? Like the ‘world catastrophe’ caused by humans before?”

“I can’t clearly explain what the ‘node’ is for now.

As for the imminent catastrophe, it might not be as simple as an invasion of our world, definitely more dangerous and uncontrollable than the former world catastrophe…

Anyway, I must now, at all costs, quickly achieve [Myth Construction].”

“Oh… but, constructing a myth shouldn’t be rushed; the quality of each piece is extremely important.”

Sally slowly released the vertical pole she was holding and moved closer to Han Dong.

“The bloodline and equipment are both very fitting; the next exploration will surely reach the deepest part of Infinite City… I will give it my all.”

“No rush, let’s first head to the ‘Great Hall’ to find a suitable mission, also we have to let Green acquire a suitable bloodline to ensure our final success rate.

Additionally, we need to wait for Hop and Kite.

They are indispensable.”

[Great Hall Area]

Due to the high status of the “Inner City Investigative Team,” the squad was led by a specialist to a “Task Room” used exclusively for querying and choosing missions, benefiting from priority selection and acceptance of missions.

A desktop device connected to the intranet allows quick task search through keywords.

However, before searching for tasks, Han Dong asked the staff here: “Could you help us check on two assassins who might be appearing in Kalmus?”

“Sir, this is quite difficult for me~ Kalmus strictly prohibits leaking any resident information.

However, if you agree, I can act as an intermediary to convey the information.

Once they come to the Great Hall to accept a mission, they will receive a letter with your names and addresses.”

“That would be a great help.

If an assassin named [Hop] or [Kite] comes here, please convey our information to them.”

“No problem.”

After settling this issue, Han Dong immediately brought up the “Task Searcher.”

Entered the keyword – [Bloodline]

Twenty-three tasks meeting the criteria immediately popped up, all offering bloodline-related rewards.

However, the bloodlines rewarded by these tasks varied greatly, mostly below B level… proceeding to filter further for bloodline level, task requirements demand A level bloodline or above rewards.

Only three tasks met the criteria.

The first is to kill a special subhuman species known as [Prince] in the Inner City, a giant with a notably evil nature, specializing in hunting exploration teams in the Inner City, causing the annihilation of at least three “Inner City Investigative Teams,” with few survivors providing partial intelligence about it.

Killing the [Prince] yields an A level bloodline reward.

The second requires completing a full exploration and map-making of a dangerous uncharted area in the Inner City.

A map completeness exceeding 90% earns an A level bloodline reward.

The third stands out compared to the previous ones as it does not require leaving the city,

“This is it!”

Han Dong’s attention was immediately drawn to the task description.

“City Lord’s Trial*”

[Restriction]: Only teams who have been received by the City Lord can accept this task, with only one opportunity.

[Difficulty]: Varies with the layers of trials, can reach the highest star level.

[Requirement]: Team or individual must submit a trial application to the City Lord, and once approved, the task cannot be abandoned. Immediate entry to the City Lord’s Room for trial is required, with final rewards based on trial layers completed.

[Rewards]:

Layers ≤3, no rewards with lowered team evaluation.

3 ＜ Layers ≤6, receives B level bloodline reward and 200 Ladybug Points

6 ＜ Layers ≤9, receives A level bloodline reward and 400 Ladybug Points

Layer =10, receives S level bloodline reward and 1000 Ladybug Points, granted a diamond badge.

*Estimated trial duration within 6 hours.

Han Dong hadn’t made a decision yet when Green’s fingers fell onto this task.

“Choose this one… I’ll go alone!”

“Okay.”

This is the best choice, requiring no departure from the city and taking a short time… we can quickly complete the squad’s bloodline, heading straight towards the core area next time.

Watching Green being taken away by the staff, Han Dong wasn’t worried in the slightest.

Previously, the Count’s sparring had thoroughly verified, even if Green’s consciousness was transferred to another body and through the world’s rules subjected to multiple restraints and placed into the game.

In terms of level, he still stood on the ‘invincible’ line.

Just as Han Dong was about to call Sally to take a stroll in the trading area, the staff suddenly approached.

“The letters you delivered have been sent out, and the two recently arrived assassins are heading to your location.”

“Perfect! Hop and Kite have finally arrived!”
