My Cell Prison-Chapter 5 - Portable Prison

Chapter 5: Chapter 5 Portable Prison

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

“Ability related to the [Head of the Faceless] has been activated.”

Han Dong pondered, “The abilities the skull possesses are ‘imitation’ and ‘portable prison’… The first ability is easy to understand; it’s equivalent to the faceswap skill.”

Previously, after Han Dong obtained the skull, it automatically transformed into Han Dong’s former appearance based on his subconscious.

Upon occupying the body, it also perfectly imitated the young man’s appearance.

“The second ability… is it a combination of quantum technology and some method of magic?”

Just when he had successfully occupied the body, a door of iron emerged in Han Dong’s consciousness. novelbuddy(.)com

As he tried to touch the iron door with his mind,

Buzz!

There was a buzzing sound accompanied by a brief blanking out of his consciousness.

When he opened his eyes again, Han Dong found himself in a narrow, grim and dark prison.

It was a realistically existing prison, not a mere image in his consciousness.

The prison was small, consisting only of a hallway, a cell, and a secret room… It was entirely different from the prison where he had sought a body before.

Excluding the secret room, it was less than thirty square meters altogether.

“So this is the so-called ‘subspace containment technology’? An inner space formed by the intervention of the brain’s subjective consciousness… how remarkable.”

The hallway was ordinary, nothing worth noting.

Han Dong first stepped into a cell enclosed by iron bars, and immediately noticed a ‘bizarre item’.

At first glance, the cell seemed to be made of ordinary black stone.

However, upon closer inspection, you would notice tentacles faintly floating in the gaps between these black stones.

“Before, when using the skull to move, similar tentacles sprouted from my neck, though they looked more like mycelium… But the tentacles in this cell are different.”

A look in any crevice revealed dark tentacles squirming back and forth… Staring at them for a long time made Han Dong feel uneasy.

Just then, a series of prompts appeared.

[The Faceless One’s Prison]

Individual compatibility: perfect (The individual can perfectly control the prison and will not be backlash due to excessive use)

Scale: Extremely small, the number of organisms it can contain: 1 (Upgrading the [Head of the Faceless] will increase the prison size)

Usage: When the target organism is in a weakened state, touch it and activate the portable prison to contain it.

Notes:

①. After the [Head of the Faceless] is upgraded, it will increase the load requirement, so please reserve at least 50 load points in advance, otherwise, the upgrade will fail.

②. Please do not try to contain organisms in good condition. If containment fails, it will cause great damage to the body and the prison will also be damaged to a certain extent.

③. You will not be able to teleport yourself to the ‘Portable Prison’ when in a special environment or under attack by other organisms.”

….

“The Faceless One’s prison? It can contain living organisms?”

The first thing Han Dong thought of was the ‘abnormality’ chasing the metal horse cart in this world.

As for containing ordinary humans, Han Dong wouldn’t even consider it… containing humans is not only a criminal act, but also touches on his bottom line as a human being.

If he could really contain an abnormality or some magical creature, he could conduct biological research.

Han Dong temporarily left the cell that made him feel creepy, and turned his attention to the neighboring [Secret Room].

The completely sealed room, through the outer layer of black stone gaps, you could even glimpse the inner white metal wall.

The main door of the secret room was sealed by a heavy iron door that could be opened by turning the hydraulic valve on the door. freewebnove(l).com

Han Dong initially thought it would be hard to turn such a valve with his weak body.

Who knew, that when his palm fell on the disc-shaped valve, it was as if it recognized Han Dong’s biological information, and the valve spun on its own.

Creak!

The heavy metal door also opened outward.

The moment he stepped into the secret room, the danger and suppression brought by the prison itself disappeared instantaneously.

After peeling off a germ-proof film and passing through a narrow buffer space,

A sterile laboratory Han Dong was extraordinarily familiar with appeared before his eyes… the clean white walls, proper temperature and humidity, adjustable light intensity.

This formed a stark contrast to the prison outside.

However, compared to the laboratory Han Dong used in his previous life… this sterile room was relatively smaller, and the equipment was not as complete.

Inside, there was only an ultra-clean workbench leaning against the wall and an exhibition stand in the center of the room.

The former was used for microbial inoculation experiments.

In the glass display case of the latter, there was a special syringe.

“This… why is there an additional sterile laboratory in the prison? Could it be related to the ‘cell clump’?”

Circling the exhibition stand, Han Dong first went to the ultra-clean workbench.

Unexpectedly, he found a cell clump residing inside the petri dish. Being about the size of a finger, it was the sign of Han Dong’s rebirth.

Instinctively, he knew that if this cell clump died, he would follow suit.

As Han Dong touched the operation panel, a series of prompts came:

“When killing specific life forms, the ‘Corpse Injector’ can extract the ‘cell essence’.

The collected ‘cell essence’ can be injected into the ‘cell body’ via sterile operation, this, according to the quality and number of cell essences, will increase the load limit.

Please note:

1. The ‘Corpse Injector’ can be taken at will and it doesn’t matter if it gets damaged.

2. The ‘Corpse Injector’ can only be used on special life forms that have been dead for no more than five minutes. It is incapable of extracting ‘cell essence’ from living beings or corpses that have been dead for too long.

3. Each corpse can only be extracted once.”

Upon hearing the prompts, Han Dong immediately turned to look at the exquisite syringe in the display case.

Transparent crystal tube, brass needle head, and metal-rimmed.

“So this is the way to increase the cell’s load limit!!”

Han Dong was very excited.

A problem that had been puzzling him was solved, now he just needed to define what a ‘specific life form’ is.

As long as he could increase the load limit, Han Dong could control stronger bodies.

“My understanding of this world is still too limited… Let’s leave it at that for the portable prison for now.”

Han Dong retreated to the corridor, and as he pushed open the exit door of the prison, he instantly returned to the base of the giant oak tree.

With no one around, Han Dong tried to use the injector.

Indeed, as he transmitted the idea of ‘taking’ through his consciousness, a delicate copper-encased injector directly appeared in his hand… and as he transmitted the idea of ‘retracting’, the injector itself sank beneath the skin.

This process caused Han Dong’s palm to feel slightly numb.

“There are still many secrets in the prison… Let’s leave it at that for now, the matter of this young man needs to be dealt with first.

The basic family relationship related to him must be clarified.

As well as the reason for his suicide and the gear bracelet on his wrist that is currently counting down.”

Han Dong’s thinking was clear.

Snatching the body was just the simplest step, now he needed to familiarize himself with and adapt to his living environment, and couldn’t let people discover that Valen Nicholas has been replaced by someone else.

Moreover, the countdown on the gear bracelet made Han Dong very uneasy.
