My Cell Prison-Chapter 452 - : Mad Laugh

Chapter 452: Chapter 452: Mad Laugh

“Pay attention to their mouthparts, serrated limbs, and the fluid they spew out — all these spread the plague effectively. Deal with them while avoiding their attacks.

I’ll handle the bug nest, you take care of these little things.”

With that, Knight Priscilla headed straight for the bug nest in the depths of the alley.

The hyperplastic tissues and small larvae in the alley, upon approaching this curse-system knight, were immediately wrapped in a dark curse and their bodies disintegrated in a short time.

At the same time, the mature blood bugs nearby, recalled by the bug nest, revealed their ferocity and attacked all at once.

“Mia, I leave this to you! I’m stepping out for a while.”

“Got it…”

In a critical moment, Sister Mia was very reliable.

With a light wave of his left hand, Han Dong had a wisp of yellow sand swirl around the hefty blood bugs, turned, and crashed onto the roof.

He was not avoiding the fight.

From Han Dong’s observation, this mature blood bug was not particularly difficult to deal with, even less challenging than the lowest-rank evil outside the city… Mia alone could kill them all, let alone a little sister with decent power.

The reason Han Dong left was that he needed to carefully dissect and analyze what exactly this “Red Plague” was.

The blood bug completely restrained by the yellow sand couldn’t move at all.

The sharp mouthparts hidden beneath the smooth skin kept stretching and retracting, and as soon as they approached a living creature, they would swiftly drain its blood.

A metal-edged syringe emerged from Han Dong’s palm.

As the needle pierced in, the bug, about half a meter in size, immediately shrank.

Han Dong’s special syringe had an ‘extraction’ effect, allowing it to directly draw out the most essence.

The drained bug, from which less than 1ml of blood had been extracted… but that was enough for Han Dong to research and analyze.

[Portable Prison – Biological Laboratory].

A milliliter of blood was loaded into a test tube and its properties were directly analyzed using a detector.

Just as Han Dong was returning to the lab with a drop of blood… the clown’s arm bound on the detector struggled wildly, split open a large red mouth on the surface of its arm.

“What is this?! Where did you get this[ Mad Laugh Blood]?”

“Hm? Mad Laugh blood, what’s that?”

With the clown arm’s question, even Han Dong was curious.

The peculiar plague outbreak in the Holy City, the clown- Pennywise actually gave a term that Han Dong had never heard of….

“Yes! You hear the laughter, don’t you? The ‘Mad Laugh’ blended in this blood has the same origin as my Mad Laugh… Can you let me taste this blood?”

With that, the clown’s arm couldn’t help but spit out a long grey tongue.

Splat!

But Han Dong directly grabbed its tongue and gently pulled it out.

“Ouch, what are you doing?”

“Don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to… Tell me more about this ‘Mad Laugh’. If you perform well enough, I may give you some of this blood.”

As Han Dong spoke, he placed the test tube containing blood into the detector.

In the information provided by the Knight Regiment about the ‘Red Plague’, this laughing phenomenon was just considered a side effect caused by an infection pressuring the hypothalamus.

However, from what the clown’s arm mentioned, this strange laughter seemed to have a deeper meaning.

“Mad Laugh… is a branch of ‘Insanity’, and my main body is an ‘Insanity’ attribute[Town Resident].

The reason my essence is so powerful is all because of ceaseless mad laughter.

I plunged myself into the Mad Abyss to break free from the Other World’s shackles, and hence managed to escape through the sewer.

The blood you brought contains this element, but it’s faint… compared to my essence, it’s vastly inferior.

I just simply want to taste the Mad Laugh blood of other beings, there’s no other meaning to it.”

“A branch of madness? You mean to say that a life mixed with this kind of blood just needs to keep laughing to grow?”

“That’s about the gist of it. Hey! Nicholas, when will you get me some blood…umm umm umm!”

Before the Clown’s Arm could finish speaking, Han Dong directly used binding bandages to gag the mouth on his arm.

“Mad laugh…interesting information.”

At this time, the detection report was also generated.

[Low rank bug servant’s blood (from Scarlet Manor)]

Blood Brew content: 0.03%

Pathogenic rate to subject: 0% (cannot cause infection to the subject)

Brief introduction: This kind of bug servant born from an infected ordinary human contains only extremely trace amounts of Blood Brew, posing very little threat.

Explanation of special terms:

‘Blood Brew’ is a cursed blood (has the power of mental contamination) produced by Scarlet Manor, capable of directly affecting any living beings.

Blood Brew gives individuals strong bloodlust and laughter attribute.

Through blood modification, the individual obtains an indescribable regeneration, mutation, and great strength.

Evil formed through drinking Blood Brew is stronger than ordinary evil and easier to grow…but it ultimately can only progress towards the Mad Abyss, making it hard to maintain due sanity during the growing process.

“Blood Brew…Scarlet Manor? The ‘Faceless Skull’ sure knows a lot.

Moreover, this clown did not deceive me, there really is such a thing as a ‘laughter attribute’… things are starting to get interesting.”

…

Han Dong exited the prison.

The situation in the alley had been dealt with.

The cursed female knight directly inserted her palm into the body of the target bug nest.

‘Withering Curse’

The bug nest quickly withered to death.

In addition, the surrounding swarm of bugs were all taken care of by Mia and her little sister…of course, Mia alone was enough to deal with them.

Everyone’s protective suits were intact, and there was no intrusion of blood.

“Pretty good…”

Knight Priscilla was somewhat surprised at the performance of these apprentice knights.

From her point of view, she definitely couldn’t have conducted such efficient investigation and enemy killing when she was a student.

Moreover, this incident itself belonged to the knight level, the pressure was completely different from normal incidents… these students managed to handle it calmly.

At this moment.

Han Dong standing on the roof continued to provide investigation information:

“Four o’clock direction, second floor of the flat-roof building 98 meters away… nine o’clock direction, within the sewer 189 meters away… and twelve o’clock direction, inside the store building 319 meters away.”

Han Dong reported the locations of three bug nests in succession.

“How… how did you do that?” Priscilla was surprised.

“I rely solely on sensing for my livelihood, naturally I have to be better than others.”

This wasn’t just doing better, the sensing knights that Priscilla knew could only possibly reach this level.

The situation was handled perfectly.

The knight was responsible for dealing with the main body of the bug nest, and the three were responsible for eliminating the blood bugs… All three bug nests were solved within half an hour. Priscilla took out a piece of concentrated blood crystal from the bug nest remains as a battle trophy to exchange for rewards.

Just as everyone was preparing to continue their actions, Han Dong frowned.

“In the seven o’clock direction, 300 meters away from us in the backyard area, there’s something strange…”
