My Cell Prison

The composition of the Blue Illusion squad.

Eugene Leonard (Knights of the Witch God, Illusionist, Captain)

Conan Turner (Hell Knights, Hammer, Vice Captain)

Ivey Goldleaf (Holy Knights, Physician)

Ulysses Edward (Plague Knights, Disperser)

The overall strength of the team is quite good.

In the early days of the investigation mission, they had killed the terrifying [corpse hider] three times on different occasions in an unnamed village with a frontal assault.

But it has not been able to crack the secret of the corpse hider's resurrection.

Moreover, Eugene's illusion, the strongest killer in the team, is also ineffective against this corpse hider with a special physique.

It was not until Ivey was injured and the team consumed more than half of their physical energy that they chose to flee.

He ran for 40 kilometers all the way, and came to the [Stuart Manor] where the old king incident broke out.

Although it has been dealt with by the Plague Knights afterwards, this place is also included in the category of the restricted area... Under normal circumstances, the knight team passing by here must choose to detour.

Captain Eugene stared at the arakkoa densely arranged on the branches with a puzzled expression.

Did these homeless arakkoa choose to occupy the abandoned manor as their new home because the old king destroyed the ecological balance of Gaien Forest?

Strange... Arakkoa are vigilant by nature and shouldn't choose to build their home in the former king's territory.

Why are you gathering here? And, how many are there?

Captain, these arakkoa are a little weird...

Ulysses is a scatterer, capable of both infecting eroded targets with plague and serving as his perceiver.

Hostile to us?

No, it's still neutral... However, they seem to have received a reform.

Following Ulysses' reminder, the rest of the team also discovered anomalies in several of the arakkoa.

1. The retractable metal prosthetic eye can comprehensively improve the visual field ability.

2. Soft metal prosthesis with steam power system.

3. Concealed and aerodynamic metal wing frame design improves flight ability. In critical moments, it can also use its wings to wrap its body, greatly improving its own defense.

In addition to the metal transformation, there are also some arakkoa who have found a 'mutation' in their bodies, and their physique exceeds the maximum physique limit of the arakkoa recorded in the monster illustrations collected by the holy city.

Even if these arakkoa look weird.

But the only escape route and vitality of the Blue Illusion team was in Stuart Manor... They couldn't maintain the fastest movement speed throughout the whole process, after all, it was still more than 60 kilometers away from the Holy City.

Moreover, even if he could escape, Ivey, who was seriously injured, couldn't last that long.

The only thing they hoped now was that the arakkoa would delay a little while so that they could completely escape the corpse hider's tracking range.

Immediately find a safe area for emergency treatment.

...

For the approach of this knight team, the arakkoa did not make any stop action.

Seemingly neutral... In fact, the arakkoa were ordered to 'release'.

When the knight squad walks through the trees where the arakkoa crouch.

The scene in front of them is completely opposite to the manor in ruins in their minds.

The reconstructed manor has incorporated the latest holy city technology, semi-automatic steam devices are embedded in the stone buildings, and there is even a steam scarecrow who is only responsible for guarding the farmland.

This...the arakkoa rebuilt the manor? No...how did these steam technologies get introduced?

at this time.

A crow landed on Captain Eugene's shoulder.

Ga~ go to the castle~ go to the castle! Lead the past ~ lead the past!

Eugene turned his head to look behind him.

The arakkoa who were originally guarding in the forest have all dispersed, leaving the corpse to chase into the manor area.

At the same time, the arakkoa who had been working in the manor had nowhere to go... In a blink of an eye, the entire manor turned into a ghost town.

If Eugene and others wanted to survive, they could only follow the directions to the castle area.

Eugene made a decision: It is very likely that the Steam Knights have taken over this area in private... We can only take a gamble. With our existing physical strength, we can't escape back to the Holy City at all, and Ivey is even less likely to support it. live.

Maybe the person in charge of the Steam Knights is waiting for us in the castle, and the mechanism in the castle should be able to deal with the [corpse hider].

Temporarily changing the plan, everyone hesitated for a while.

Swish!

A foreign object flew out of the forest.

Hit Ulysses the Plague Walker in the arm.

It is a miniature version of a buried tombstone, precisely nailed into the arm.

In a short period of time, dark gray stripes spread rapidly from the pinning point to the surroundings, and the entire arm exuded a breath similar to a corpse hider and was not controlled by Ulysses.

And tombstones have another feature.

Once the individual voluntarily discards the nailed part, the soul of the part will be buried alive and cannot be regenerated.

Ulysses could only block the entire arm with the plague, and clenched his teeth to support it.

Walk!

The team took out all the remaining physical energy in the body and rushed towards the castle on the small hill with all their strength.

Above their heads, a crow followed them all the way.

Part of it is to monitor them, and more is to monitor the [corpse hider] who is chasing at the back end.

...

Castle - Lord's Hall

Knowing that this is the land deed area, yet dared to break in, it's really a strange monster... It is so eager to hunt down this group of people, I think this knights have revealed a secret, and they must not bring it with them. The secret of returning to the Holy City.

[corpse hider]. I remember that when I chose an investigation mission at Knight Headquarters a month ago, I almost cooperated with Captain Lucius on this mission.

What a coincidence.

Coincidentally, Han Dong happened to arrive at Stuart Manor this morning.

I was just discussing the [deep sea] research with Dr. Swell and Professor West in the underground laboratory.

Who knows, two breaths came from the land at the same time.

Especially the breath from the corpse hider made Han Dong sweat a little coldly on his back, and the pressure was no less than that of the original Scarlet Earl.

Count, who wants to be stronger between this guy and you back then?

Needless to say? This kind of domineering guy, who dares to break into the land deed area, can compare with me? I ordered eight barons and thousands of blood descendants to press down, he can stand it. ?

No... I mean fighting alone, which of you is stronger.

Han Dong's question directly silenced the earl.

It took a long time before slowly admitting the truth.

Che... this guy has reached the late stage of maturity, he must be stronger.

Moreover, this kind of corpse-type monster is supposed to be higher in 'personal combat power', but if you want to fight one-on-one, he can't kill me.

However, based on what your crow has captured, this guy's abilities are a little weird.

Tombstones nailed to these knights?

Well... an ability I have never seen before. One of these knights has been deeply contaminated by tombstones, and may be transformed into an equally dangerous fallen person at any time.

Let's play with him.
