My Cell Prison

Chapter 826: Chapter 826: Bizarre

An hour ago.

The Siege Forces received an important message:

“The Sixth Platoon reports,

The method of spiritual erosion in Perugia City has been confirmed as ‘Full-Body Parasitic Erosion.’

Using contaminated small bodies with an egg structure as the medium, it can be transmitted through vision, hearing, or direct contact.

This type of parasitic erosion has a relatively long incubation period and will not erupt actively until it accumulates to a certain amount.

With the blood transfusion therapy proposed by Knight Meschel and targeted Holy Light burning, the contamination elimination rate can reach over 80%.”

Upon confirming the message,

The Siege Forces immediately organized a “Major Cleansing Operation.”

The whole army convened on the mountain-side district streets they had conquered, where the medical units performed a ‘full-body cleanse’ on each knight to effectively remove the lurking egg mediators.

The bizarre spiritual erosion was effectively contained, and potential risks were completely eliminated.

The sense of unease that had been buried in the hearts of the entire army was thus relieved, boosting morale significantly!

“The Fourth Platoon reports, Garigri Street has been cleansed.”

“The Second Platoon reports, Saint Mitibei Street has been cleansed.”

“The First Platoon reports, the Central Square and the Office of the Governing Officials have been cleansed.”

…Good news followed one after the other.

While clearing all evil things from the city surface with the least casualties and in the most brutal manner… ‘An Anomaly Emerged’

Gray clouds of unknown origin converged in the sky.

They formed a terrifying gray giant mouth, as if it were a passage leading to the depths of the “Eternal Night.”

Simultaneously, a strange gray storm enveloped this ancient city in the mountains.

The entire outer facade of Perugia City was devoured in the storm, revealing the dirty, fallen, and corrupted Inner city of rats.

Faced with strong energy fluctuations and suspected signs of a battle between knights and demons, the Siege Forces immediately advanced toward the deepest layer of the Abyss as fast as possible.

…

[Knight Charlie – Perspective]

Due to the Lord’s concerns about Charlie’s individual strength,

he was isolated in an independent spatial interlayer through ‘Land Deed Interference.’

Then, his trusted confidant, “Demon Flute Messenger – Durmen Zoro,” led all the demons from the Inner city area to the sealed space to confront the knight.

The result…total annihilation.

Apart from a few lingering contamination marks at the corner of his right eye, Knight Charlie had no other external injuries.

However, after the battle,

Charlie also needed to thoroughly cleanse his puppet… Most of the mental contaminations were borne by using ‘Puppet Transfer.’

With his own power, he killed two Mature Body-Demons, plus nineteen Newborn Demons, and various creations from the Lord, including low-rank constructs.

Such achievements can only be described as terrifying.

As the ‘Grey’ of the restricted space dissipated,

Charlie casually walked out of the building that had trapped him and met up with the large troop that had just arrived.

Just speaking in terms of knight rank, Charlie and the commander of the Siege Forces, Third Platoon Leader – Arthur. Demon Converter, were the same.

Only that his military rank was lower than the other’s, both addressed each other as equals when they met.

“Charlie! What are you doing here?”

Arthur looked as surprised as if he’d seen a ghost… and even posed to attack immediately.

Knight Charlie’s expression changed, and he instantly realized the problem.

“Hey! Arthur, do you want me to discuss what you did thirteen years ago at ‘Vivian’s Love Tavern’ in front of everyone?”

“Huh? You really are Charlie… What’s going on?”

Charlie immediately answered,

“Could it be that someone impersonated our four men and returned to the army?

That shouldn’t be right! Several captains are in the army.

Knowing there was a problem with the ‘Art Festival,’ they would certainly have conducted a strict identity check. Didn’t they find out?”

Arthur was still in a state of semi-trust towards the Charlie before him, after all, memories could also be duplicated.

At that moment,

Charlie moved his fingers, invisible threads pulled through the air.

More than a dozen Demon heads were strung on the thread, all landing in front of Arthur… among them was the Demon Flute Messenger,

which finally confirmed his identity.

Arthur explained with an ugly look on his face,

“The reason we launched the siege was because ‘you’ had safely returned.

Dozens of sensory knights and ‘The Eye of the Expedition’ conducted a physical examination on ‘you’, and afterward, you were sent to the Moving Sanctuary where Captain Olivia personally purified you.

Absolutely no problems were found.

This couldn’t possibly be a disguise achieved by Ancestor Body… Is it possible that the Old King is interfering with this matter?”

Charlie shook his head, unable to provide a conclusive answer.

“Hurry to ‘The Junkyard’, those three youngsters are having a head-on clash with the Lord of Perugia City… The current anomaly must also have been caused by them.

The Old King might have interfered in this incident, but it would have been before the outbreak of the war.

I don’t think an ‘Upper Old King’ would be concerned about an average Land Deed.

Arthur, let’s hurry over.”

“Three youngsters against an Ancestor Body? Charlie, you’re not joking with me, are you?”

Though Arthur was puzzled, the situation was urgent, and there wasn’t a moment to spare… The whole army pressed into The Junkyard at top speed.

…

“The Junkyard”.

Hundreds of meters high garbage pillars were being absorbed by grey orbs.

A hundred-meter tall chaotic lifeform had largely taken shape.

Though its structural composition was incredibly chaotic, it still resembled a Ratman with long, curved horns.

Seeing the main troop arrive and stand before it,

Han Dong, relieved, was also eager for battle, “Dumps, let’s get ready too.”

Just as the two of them were about to engage in the combat,

Whoosh~ invisible threads bound their bodies.

Along with a nearby Knight Vino, they were directly pulled towards the rear of the troop.

Standing before them was none other than Knight Charlie.

He simultaneously patted their shoulders, “To reach this point has already exceeded expectations, to have forced the Ancestor Body to abandon ‘itself’… Let Arthur and the others handle the rest.

There’s something more important here that I need to confirm with you.”

At the same moment, a thread directly entered Han Dong’s brain from his ear, conducting a one-on-one secret conversation.

“Nicholas, tell me straight.

How much do you know about this city’s Old King?

And has it interfered with this battle?”

“The Old King behind this, I honestly don’t know… But what I can confirm is,

during our conflict with the Lord, there was no intervention from any external force.

Did something else happen at the Expeditionary Army’s end?”

“Then that’s fine, the interference happened before the battle and did not violate the ‘World Rule’.

Yes… The Old King created our perfect disguises, deceiving the Captain’s eyes.”

“Hmm?”

“Let’s leave it at that for now, as long as no rules are violated… it’s not a big issue.

You guys stay here and receive treatment in peace. I’ll go lend a hand.”

With that said, a thread connected to the front of the army, and Knight Charlie immediately joined the battle.

Leaving behind a thoughtful Han Dong.

“Strange, what could be the Old King’s reason for doing this? To seize internal information from the Expeditionary Army? Or is there another motive…”

Staring at the grey clouds in the sky, Han Dong covered his head with his hand, feeling a strange sensation.
