Chapter 17: Calm Day 3
Chapter 17: Calm Day 3
"Portable prison, harboured organisms: 1/1, max.
Until the size of the prison is increased or the existing host organisms are voluntarily released, the ability to house them cannot be activated.
To a certain extent, the sheltered creatures obey the orders given by the subject.
However, they will strongly resist orders that go against their beliefs, and will lower their 'mood'.
Please be sure to keep an eye on the 'mood' of the subject, if its mood falls below a good value for a long period of time, it may rebel and even lose its ability to stay.
With the end of the system prompt.
Chen Li in the cell opened her eyes.
I expected Chen Li to feel panicked for being in the cell.
Who knew that she was smiling, not at all repulsed by this cold, dark prison.
During the tentacles accessing the back of her head, a subconscious about 'home' was implanted in it.
This made Chen Li's stay in the prison instead give her a feeling of home.
In addition, there was another important change...that was the look that came from Chen Li's brown pupils, which seemed to have an additional 'master-servant' relationship in addition to that of 'best friend'.
Han Dong said sincerely, "Thank you for being able to trust me."
"After my mother was killed, my only goal in life was revenge.
My younger brother Daqing he has his own family business... After this matter is over, he will be able to go about his own life, and I have nothing to worry about, nor do I want to be a burden to him.
Following you and leaving together is a good thing instead."
Chen Li frankly accepted all of this.
"Then the next thing is up to you... When it's all settled, I'll take you to a brand new world."
"Mm."
After returning to the bungalow, Chen Li pretended to look weak and held onto the wall while returning to the Room 6 that belonged to her.
Han Dong also followed suit and left the room, preparing to go down to meet up with the squad.
However, as soon as he left the room, he ran into Edward, who had curly blonde hair, head-on.
Edward asked with concern, "Friend Nicholas, are you doing well?"
"It's just that I didn't sleep well last night, and Herbert followed the accident.
The tension and lack of sleep made me a little weak...I feel better after breakfast."
"You shouldn't be in danger during the day, so why don't you rest in your room?"
Edward was just about to turn around and seemed to think of something...but the series of shifting movements was slightly deliberate.
"Right! Nicholas friend, I saw 'Chen Li' coming out of your room when I was going up the stairs....she must have been with you for 20 minutes, right?
Is it all right that you've spent so much time alone with this 'Sinister'?"
" It's fine."
Edward suddenly had no intention of leaving, and instead took it upon himself to enter Han dong's room and backhanded the door shut.
"Friend Nicholas, I hope you can tell me what happened, the content of your conversation, and your thoughts during the twenty minutes.
It is highly likely that the 'evil spirit' in this incident is Chen Li, or that the evil spirit is possessed inside Chen Li and will only show up at night.
The information about her is very important to us."
"Mm."
Han Dong had already thought of a way to say it.
Saying that Chen Li had come up to the second floor to care about his health, after all, Han Dong and the others also belonged to the following group and helped in the 'exorcism' process, they then sat down together to eat noodles and talk about some life matters.
Edward looked confused, "Is that all?"
"Yes, but..." and Han Dong seemed to ring out some terrible details.
"But what?"
Han Dong pretended to look serious, "The temperature has dropped quite a bit during the time Chen Li has been staying in my room.
Besides.
During the conversation, when talking about her past experiences of being possessed, she pulled a kitchen knife out of nowhere...and it scared me to death.
However, she was just plain emotional and not doing anything dangerous."
Edward used his white gloved mechanical prosthetic leg and stroked his chin, as if remembering something.
"Um... a kitchen knife? Indeed, it seems that this Chen Li is very fond of the kitchen knife and carries it with her at all times.
Nicholas, thank you for sharing important information.
I, as captain, will do my best to bring you to survive...I'll tell you the news."
"What?" Han Dong looked curious.
"According to the information revealed by my 'Returner' friend, the usual novice quests fall into this 'survival type of event', short for a day, long for half a month.
However, no matter how long the survival was required, the event would not progress very quickly in the early stages, deliberately giving a sense of slack to those entering.
Often, in the final period, events would suddenly accelerate, even to the point of unimaginable happenings!
Those squads of more than ten people, if they worked well together, would be able to achieve full survival in the early stages... but would all die in the last few hours.
This sudden shift was called [Shift] by that friend of mine, and the Knights."
Han Dong looked surprised, "The captain is saying... the Evil Spirit might go on a killing spree in the last few hours?"
"That's right, I reckon [Shift] will start in the last half day. We'll still be in our respective rooms today, resting as normal, and when tomorrow starts at six o'clock, all gather... I'll find a way to keep everyone alive."
"Thank you Captain."
"You're welcome, just rest in your room... Since you're fine with being alone with Chen Li for 20 minutes, that means there shouldn't be any danger today either."
Witnessing Edward leave, Han Dong jotted down 'Variables' as well as Edward's name in his notebook.
"Edward . Murray ... this person's origin is by no means simple.
Furthermore, he was clearly well prepared for this event, and should have known the hidden details in the 'Fate Space' like the back of his hand.
However, he only told me a 'pattern' of the development of the event, and didn't tell me the truly useful [Restriction] at all.
It is necessary to pay attention to this person.
As for the so-called 'variable speed'... it's most likely my guess that the 'restriction' condition for evil spirits will be drastically weakened, or lifted altogether, in the later stages of the event."
Day Three.
Han Dong stayed in his room almost the entire day without going out, the reason being that he was not feeling well, and Captain Edward allowed it.
Even the lunch and evening meals would be brought up by Chen Li herself.
This entire day, Han Dong was 'thinking'.
Everything was normal, just as Edward had said, [Shift] would happen the moment everyone let their guard down a little, and even a squad of more than ten people would die in the last few hours.
The time came late afternoon.
After dinner, Han Dong took the opportunity to leave the room for the first time by receiving his rice bowl on the first floor.
Before the final sunset, he went forward to the latrine to solve his physical problems.
Of course... the main purpose was to meet with Chen Li in secrecy.
When he arrived at the back of the latrine with his pants up, he was a little surprised even though he had prepared for it in advance.
A cape and a red-clothed Chen Li was holding a kitchen knife, half of her body hidden behind a tree.
"As I told you, start an operation with your brother tonight... Whether I survive or not is up to you."
"Good."
Han Dong made a point of complimenting her before leaving, "You're even better dressed than I had planned...you almost scared me."
