My Cell Prison
Chapter 1138 - Chapter 1138 Chapter 1137 Landing

Chapter 1138: Chapter 1137: Landing Chapter 1138: Chapter 1137: Landing About twenty minutes had passed.

Eugenes, having completed his body wash (approximately three hundred cubic meters of seawater had turned into a “forbidden zone” of life, with two thousand cubic meters of seawater contaminated), donned a multi-layered padded cotton coat and met Han Dong on the deck.

The Coral Ship was crossing the ice floe area, and it would be about three hours before they could officially dock.

Han Dong also told Eugenes about his encounter in the corridor.

The latter’s expression did not change much; he merely frowned slightly,

“I didn’t expect to be greeted by a ‘thing’ before we even landed. Since you, Nicholas, encountered it first, it was probably attracted to you.”

“Me? And what exactly is this thing? I clearly saw ‘it’ with my own eyes a moment ago, and had completely locked onto its domain.

I chased after it in less than a second, but it just disappeared… like it evaporated into thin air. I’ve only ever encountered this with Green.”

Eugenes scratched his eyeball with his fingers and spoke softly,

“‘Possession Monster,’ a type of being that can exist purely in a state of consciousness by using a shell as a host.

You were able to see it just now because it ‘intentionally let you see’ through a projection of consciousness… It’s obviously interested in you.

When they first came to our world, many of these things caused a great leakage of internal secrets unaware, leading to massive catastrophes as one of the main reasons.

Nowadays, a very small number of these possessors still exist in Antarctica, confined here.

They exist purely in a state of consciousness and cannot escape the thin membrane that envelops Antarctica.

However, the one you just encountered seems to be a more advanced type of Possession Monster, capable of influencing reality, which is quite rare.”

Han Dong didn’t care about how advanced this creature was. If it tried to possess him, it would be signing its death warrant… Han Dong was more concerned about something else.

“Eugenes, is Antarctica maintained like a ‘farming enclosure’?”

Eugenes didn’t deny it, “That’s right… The disaster from ancient times set our world back thousands of years, with many Old Kings fallen and countless Demons killed.

This matter wasn’t just going to end there.

Some of the invaders that caused the disaster are indeed being farmed here, available for our in-depth research.

However, the relationships here are quite complicated. Once we reach the ruins of the Elder Race, you’ll naturally understand…”

Just then.

A chill swept over the three of them standing at the edge of the deck.

When Han Dong turned around, he saw a woman resembling a ‘frozen corpse’ about ten meters behind him.

As Eugenes had said, she only projected her conscious image to Han Dong; the others couldn’t see her.

“Has it come?” asked Eugenes.

“Yes… similar to a frozen corpse, female, human-like.”

“It will project based on your subjective consciousness. It’s normal for you to see it as human-like… With your consciousness, you should be able to counter it, right? After all, you and Green together defeated a mythological being from a different world.”

“No problem.”

Han Dong was not afraid at all on a conscious level, having asked Togu to stand by inside his body.

Should this thing dare attempt possession, a series of Hell acupuncture, therapeutic massages, and lava baths would await it.

As the frozen corpse was about to approach and Han Dong made all his preparations.

A magnet flew in from behind and struck a wooden crate next to the ‘Possession Monster,’ breaking it open.

Suddenly, a black viscous substance, similar to a ‘net,’ spilled out from the wooden crate, swiftly wrapping around the frozen corpse-like ‘Possession Monster.’

Capture successful.

“Lucky indeed!

Didn’t expect that we’d capture a ‘Possession Monster’ capable of influencing reality right after reaching the ice floe area.”

A familiar voice called out.

The burly man who had escorted Han Dong and the others onboard was slowly walking over, holding the magnet that had just broken the wooden crate–or rather, his palm was the magnet.

Removing the glove, he revealed a palm constructed of rock.

“Mr. Messenger, are you alright? That ‘Possession Monster’ just now seemed very interested in you.”

The burly man’s words carried a certain disdain.

In his view, Han Dong, the Deep Sea Messenger, appeared to have been frightened, standing immobile at the bow.

“I’m fine, this is the first time I’ve encountered such a thing.

I’ve heard that Possessive Monsters are pure consciousness entities and can only be seen by the target they choose to possess. How did you manage to capture it?”

Clang, clang, clang! The burly man tapped his stone palm against his helmet.

The emblem of Miskatonic University was clearly imprinted on the back of the helmet, evidently manufactured by the university.

“This thing can achieve the effect of consciousness imaging… Speaking of which, you don’t even have the most basic consciousness imager and you dared to come to the Antarctic? Aren’t you afraid of dying? After all, this place is the Demon Forbidden Area.

I advise you to turn back, since it’s not too far from the ‘Membrane.’ I don’t mind wasting some time escorting you out of the zone.”

“We’re fine, we do have some preparations.”

“Fine.”

The burly man did not insist on anything.

In case Han Dong died in Antarctica, he could also take the opportunity to scavenge the corpse.

…

Three hours passed.

The Coral Ship smoothly docked.

Thrown by the burly man, the heavy Coral Ship anchor, weighing several tons, securely drilled into the thick ice layer…officially stepping onto the Antarctic continent.

“Hey, Mr. Messenger… do you want to consider hiring us?

According to you, if you want to find ancient medicine or search for medical equipment left by the Elder Race, you would definitely need to go to Meat Mountain.

This journey will likely encounter unimaginable dangers.”

Han Dong initially wanted to refuse.

However, Eugene suddenly communicated telepathically: “Having this group of experienced Antarctic Hunters could save us a lot of trouble.”

“What’s the price?”

“It depends on what you, Mr. Messenger, can offer. Various tools and materials are acceptable. Based on the price you give, we’ll determine the escorting distance.

If the price is satisfactory, we are willing to accompany the entire journey, even helping you find medical equipment.”

Han Dong didn’t have much on him, and various Fate Equipment couldn’t be given casually.

Thus, he pointed towards the “Deep Sea Coral” behind the crowd, “Would this ship do? As long as I can return safely, I will apply directly at the port.”

Having said that, Han Dong promptly wrote a letter of commitment, signing his name and also imprinting a Deep Sea Mark on the back of his hand.

“Deal!

We are willing to escort the entire journey… Mr., your offer is indeed generous; proposing such good merchandise right away, it seems this friend of yours holds a very special identity, worthy of the high price.

However, there are some things that need to be made clear in advance.

We can control the situations outside of Meat Mountain, but inside Meat Mountain, it’s harder to say.

Once we enter the Meat Mountain area, Mr. Messenger needs to follow our commands… We will do our best to help you find medical-related remnants.”

“Fine.”

“If you don’t mind, help us move these goods; as you’ve just seen, the items in these wooden crates are very effective in restraining ‘Possession Monsters.’

When we set out soon, you should also follow me, stay in the middle of the group to ensure absolute safety.”

“Thank you.”

“As long as the money is right, everything is negotiable.”
