My Cell Prison

Chapter 380: Demon
Demon.

The true cause of the apocalypse.

Every Demon possesses terrifying powers.

Even formal knights have to form a squad and plan meticulously before they can strike.

If they can bring the corpse of a Demon back to the Holy City, they would be highly rewarded.

Not just for killing the Demon but the corpse itself holds tremendous significance for research… allowing humanity to understand the superior creatures now occupying the world.

The Fallen Baker was once eliminated secretly in the underground area by Han Dong and Knight Vino.

He was just a host for a Demon, the ritual was just completed, and the Demon was restricted as it descended onto Baker through the ritual.

Therefore, it only exhibited a fifth-tier of strength, not a real Demon in its truest sense.

……

At present.

The one who approached Han Dong and Dumps was the real culprit behind the Secret Stone incident.

The one that Han Dong wanted to engage with and understand through this incident, the real Demon.

A ‘stone fist’ hit Dumps from the side.

Just a side punch.

Easily shattered the magic shield formed collectively by his necklace, the mage’s coat, and his abilities.

Dumps landed over ten meters away, his body twitched slightly, and blood kept flowing from his mouth.

Those fists that hit the waist seemed to have completely shattered one of his kidneys and completely crushed his lower ribs.

What’s scarier is the residue it left was not simply a fistprint.

But a ring of tiny stones.

Luckily.

Dumps had a special close-fitting garment that prevented these sharp-mouthed little stones from puncturing and invading his body. Otherwise, he would be in critical condition in a short period, even facing death.

However… Dumps is currently incapacitated for combat.

……

“This is…a barrier?”

The walls that were crushed and rebuilt formed a closed barrier due to the horrifying face’s appearance, isolating the residential area within.

This was the root cause why the embedded communication array in the mechanical device failed…

At the same time.

The members of the Knight Regiment, responsible for patrol and investigation of this area, all received an order from ‘above’, were all transferred out of the current civilian area due to irresistible reasons.

……..

Han Dong stared at the barrier, murmuring to himself.

“Even though the ‘Stone Wall Barrier’ has completely sealed this place… wouldn’t it be too audacious to form a barrier so openly? After all, there have been a lot of knights patrolling and investigating the civilian area recently.

As long as a little attention is paid, the knights would inevitably notice the strange barrier here.

…Or could it be that someone has secretly separated the Knight Regiment from this area?”

Upon seeing the barrier, Han Dong’s mind immediately began calculating at high speed, pushing forth some disturbing information.

However, the most important thing at the moment was how to face the Demon that had appeared behind him.

Obviously.

It was after Han Dong and Dumps learned about the ‘concrete’ information that they were targeted by the other side… Li thought they would show up so quickly and directly.

Han Dong turned around.

Although he was mentally prepared, when he directly looked at the Demon, sweat immediately soaked his clothes.

Half of this was due to the pressure of the aura.

The other half was due to the visual impact of its ‘partial appearance’.

A significant part of the ‘Secret Stone Bearer’s’ body was still shrouded under the robe.

The two grey arms covered in engraved stony lines dangled in front.

Besides the two main arms, there were over ten similar stone arms growing from its back.

The one that hit Dumps just now was merely one of these arms.

Apparently, this life form from outside the city that has a stone attribute, leans more towards close combat, possessing quite terrifying physical defense, magical resistance, and strength attributes.

Gazing at this demon, Han Dong thought to himself:

“This sort of attribute is quite suitable for Cass… However, the pressure is overwhelming, isn’t it? Is this what the real demons look like?”

The little demon eye on his forehead functioned to detect.

Through the gloomy hood of ‘The Secret Stone Bearer’.

Dimly, a face made up of countless small stones glued together, a ‘Secret Stone Face’, could be seen.

The small stones clung together through some kind of ‘inner red flesh’.

Thus, there were strands of red flesh continually floating in the gaps between the rocks, even floating in the air like tentacles.

Moreover.

The small round stones that made up the face had an inconspicuous crack on the surface.

At the necessary moment, the crack would open to reveal the eyeball inside…

A ‘face’ like this could be enough to cause a common knight to fall into panic, and even lead to their mental downfall.

Facing an existence that requires a knight squad to fight directly, Han Dong dared not to be careless.

“An elder-level existence… Caw caw caw!”

Duo Zeya, who had evolved into a ‘double-headed crowman’ within Han Dong’s body, was still extremely cowardly.

However, Han Dong would not use his crowman form… Even if the other party’s barrier closed off the outside, some information might still leak out.

If the information of his fusion with the crow man were to leak out, even Mr. Black White would probably struggle to clear Han Dong’s name.

…

“You… seem to be more extraordinary.”

From beneath the hood, a deep vibrating noise emanates from the gaps between the stones: to normal people, this kind of voice would be exceedingly fatal.

This ‘Secret Stone Bearer’ was paying attention to the eye on Han Dong’s forehead.

Following which.

The body of the demon started to move, running towards Han Dong.

However, as soon as he stepped forward, the cement ground beneath his feet receded, turning into a pit of sand.

“Hmm? Sand…” The demon turned its head slightly in curiosity, finding the rotating yellow sand on the ground intriguing.

At the moment.

Han Dong was on one knee.

With his sleeve rolled up and his left arm fully exposed, he placed his open palm on the ground with fingers wide apart.

An ancient Egypt’s black magic secret text flickered in and out of existence on the surface of his left arm.

Through direct contact with the ground, the cement floor quickly turned into sand.

[Sand Seal]

Approximately one-sixth of Han Dong’s internal energy was drained in an instant.

For a moment.

The ground where the demon stood was completely turned into sand, and rendered into flowing sand qualities by a certain form of transformation… under Han Dong’s control, large amounts of yellow sand rose to cover the demon’s body.

In a short period, a yellow sand coffin seal that bore the mark of the scarab beetle was formed, imprisoning the demon within.

However…

Crack!

The dense ‘Yellow Sand Coffin Seal’ immediately showed cracks in the next second.

Following that, a gray stone leg immediately stepped out of the sand.

The coffin seal crumbled subsequently.

It continued to force its way towards Han Dong.

Vibrations came from under the hood: “Sand… Interesting, my name is Adelaide Rubble, I’m happy to meet you.”
