My Cell Prison

Chapter 439: Chapter 439: Summoning
As he approached the Dyson Sphere, the smile on Han Dong’s face was hard to withdraw.

This solo mission filled with unknowns and dangers was vastly different from previous Fate missions. His abilities were limited and the many omens he encountered could lead to severe consequences if not handled carefully.

The death of the protagonist, the death of the locals, all could affect the subsequent development.

If something went wrong halfway, Han Dong would not be able to clear the mission properly.

Yet, he managed to accomplish it in the end.

The huge rewards exceeded Han Dong’s expectations. This would mean a significant improvement to his ‘individual abilities’, reducing the risk of breaking the breed in the future.

…

Once he touched the Dyson Sphere, a search field appeared that could help him find the items he needed.

“Type: Material” → “Quality: Epic” → “Search”

Expensive!

Materials of epic quality were so expensive they were frightening, let alone finished equipment.

The points Han Dong had accumulated so far were barely enough to purchase one piece of material, and he was even short of funds for some materials.

He already had an idea of what kind of weapon he wanted to forge, so he quickly skimmed through most of the useless materials during the search.

After about an hour of meticulous selection, he finally found a piece of epic material that fit the requirements and was priced just right.

After choosing to exchange, all the points Han Dong had accumulated were cleared.

The massive Dyson Sphere slowly fetched items from the ‘warehouse’, wrapped them in a precision white shell, and handed them to Han Dong.

“Reward calculation, point redemption completed.

Detected target has “Node – Paradise”, would you like to be transported to node area?

You can renew your lease for the next year within the node. Once the renewal is done, the individual needs to leave the node world within an hour.”

“Yes!”

In the blink of an eye,

Han Dong appeared on the ‘familiar’ street.

It was a dark and cold street; the street lights were broken.

A long-haired woman hanging on a streetlight slowly retracted the black hair overflowing from her abdomen back into her body, gave up on the idea of ‘preying’, and weakly raised her pale hand to greet Han Dong.

Unlike before.

Most of the Strange Tales in Paradise knew Han Dong, the one who had killed [The Talk of the Lamp], and no longer held any hostility towards him.

Because the lighthouse caretaker had changed to [The Third Strange Tale – The Collector], some circumstances within Paradise also changed.

Even though the streets were still pitch-black, with only the spotlight from the lighthouse illuminating, the Strange Tales living here were no longer frightened; they lived freely.

These Strange Tales only needed to do one thing: provide an up-to-standard collectible item for the Collector every year as ‘tax’.

They would get the rights to reside in the inner layers for a year as long as they paid the tax successfully.

The main reason for Han Dong’s visit to Paradise was not to manage or to gain experience.

It was to perform an important task in advance.

“This… has it been changed into a collection room already?”

When Han Dong entered the lighthouse again, the previous structure of a mental hospital had been completely abandoned.

It had entirely turned into a [Lighthouse Museum].

All collectibles that met the standards were displayed inside the lighthouse, and the lighthouse was fully open to the public, allowing any Strange Tales to enter.

The office of the Collector at the top level had completely turned into a boutique figurine room.

The Collector was completely immersed in these exquisite collectibles, somewhat similar to a real-world geek.

“Mr. Nicholas, what brings you here?”

The Collector, whose head was a safe box, greeted Han Dong as he walked out of the elevator, dressed neatly.

“I will be carrying out a special summoning ritual at the highest point of the lighthouse. I hope you can collect these materials that are necessary for the ritual in a short time.”

Han Dong handed over the list in his hand.

However, these materials were readily available in Lighthouse Museum.

The Collector wasn’t stingy.

The relevant materials were promptly sent to the Collector’s office through a miniature elevator mechanism.

“May I ask, would the summoning ritual you’re going to perform bring any danger?”

As the person in charge of Paradise, the Collector had a duty to summon some powerful Strange Tales if there was a real danger, ready to respond to emergencies.

“No danger, you just need to make a city-wide announcement through the lighthouse to avoid panic… The summoning ritual might establish a temporary world portal, which will be closed soon.”

“Okay.”

Han Dong must carry out the summoning ritual at the highest point, to establish the most stable transmission channel possible.

He drew a formation similar to the one in the forbidden land of the Church, placed different materials at the corresponding positions to replace the Five Stone Columns.

Pink octopus tentacles were put at the position of the Array Eyes, to open a directional [Gate].

“Let’s start… I hope everything goes smoothly.”

Han Dong activated the formation using the hidden control method in the Eye Book.

In a short time, the ritual items obtained from the Collector were drained of energy, a circular path connecting to the ‘Deep Sea’ was successfully established…

For a moment, the entire sky of Paradise seemed to turn into the Deep Sea.

Various strange and indescribable shadows circled and swam in the clouds.

Most of the Strange Tales living in Paradise felt danger and immediately shut their doors and hid in their rooms.

Only the S Level Strange Tales stepped out of their homes, their eyes fixed on the Deep Sea sky, ready to fight at any moment… However, the sound coming from the lighthouse broadcast immediately dispelled everyone’s worries.

……

Han Dong’s point of view.

When the [Gate (Direct Access to Deep Sea)] was opened,

Han Dong didn’t see Nicole first.

Rather, through this round oceanic gate, he caught a glimpse of a terrifying entity from the Deep Sea, a being that could be on par with the ‘King of Omen’…

Massive tentacles squeezed through the gate, brushing against Han Dong’s cheeks, leaving a trail of cold Deep Sea fluid.

A voice that could instantly crush normal living beings echoed directly in Han Dong’s eardrums:

“You, with a human body, unaffected by our existence… it seems you’re more than just a ‘Messenger’. Since your identity has been verified, I can safely hand my daughter over to you.”

“Thank you…”

This must be the Father God that Nicole had mentioned.

Han Dong’s face remained calm, but his back was already soaked with sweat.

“I will take good care of Nicole, I will definitely visit the Deep Sea if I get the chance in the future.”

The tentacles slowly withdrew back into the gate.

Then, a shadow slowly swam over from the other side of the gate.

The lower half was soft pink tentacles;

the upper half had a normal human body, with shell-like Bei covering crucial parts of the body;

Nicole, with seawater-blue hair and a heavenly face, squeezed out from the [Gate] quickly… Because she was too excited and moving too fast when leaving the small gate,

her soft tentacles all piled up on Han Dong.

“Wow! What universe is this!?”

Nicole, not minding Han Dong she was pressing down at all, opened her ‘eye membrane’ with curiosity and was observing this Strange Tale world in detail.
