Chapter 31: The Black Cell (Ask for Recommendations!!)
Black cell.
It was the last carriage of the entire slave train.
I don't know how long I was asleep, but with a pinprick pain in his head, Chalkin slowly woke up.
His sleepy eyes were a little worried, and he lay on the single bed in the black cell, reaching out to rub his head, only to find that there was an extra pair of shackles on his hands.
Sitting up with his body propped up, Chalkin began to look around at the long-rumored horror carriage.
This is a single room in the black cell, and the inside of the single room has only a gap that allows a meager light to let in.
The so-called black cell, as the name suggests, is shrouded in absolute darkness throughout the carriage.
Only a crack the size of a little finger cut out of the metal outer wall of the carriage, which can be regarded as a place where a little light can be seen.
The pitch-black cell was not as quiet as Chalkin had imagined, but was filled with whispers, whispers, and laughter.
He had long heard that not all of the people imprisoned here were slaves who had discovered their awakening extraordinary abilities.
There are also some runaways who have swallowed too much 'tainted' demonic beast flesh and blood and completed special mutations.
And that's where the sounds come from.
Of course, apart from these two types of people, there are no prison guards with unstable extraordinary characteristics, on the verge of 'madness' and 'out of control'.
They may be waiting to reach the Demon Crystal Mountains for treatment.
Or they will be sent to the black mines and become slaves to dig special ore veins.
Or, it has a certain 'scientific research value'.
"Spirituality is overused. Chalkin sighed secretly, feeling the powerlessness in his body, and shook his head with a wry smile.
Raising his hand, Gu Hemes read it softly, and the light of blessing did not fall on Chalkin as expected.
Chalkin was stunned for a moment, he clearly felt the consumption of spirituality, but the extraordinary skill did not appear!
"Blessings!" said in the ancient Hermese language again, and the spirit restored from sleep in the body was once again consumed, but the extraordinary ability was still unusable.
"Don't waste your efforts, new boy. ”
"Here, even if you are a Sequence 4 or even a stronger Sage, you won't be able to use any ability. ”
Across the cell door, a hoarse voice came over.
"Who's on the other side?" asked Chargin as he sat up straight.
"I've heard from my colleague about you. ”
"Hehe, it's the first time I've heard of someone who can use the extraordinary skills of medical means to make people have to go through bloodletting in order to consume their vigorous life force. ”
"Cavigin's little girl is miserable, and it is said that she was cut by Ovelas more than 30 times before she unloaded her vigorous life force. ”
"Tsk, more than thirty knives, this is already comparable to an execution. ”
In the darkness, an old man with a white beard, smiling, pushed a sumptuous meal, and said through the small door of his cell:
"But you're a ruthless guy too! When you come in, your body is already showing signs of losing control. ”
"If it's not this ......"
The old man pointed to the bracelet he wore on his wrist, similar to the material of Chalkin's handcuffs, and continued:
"You've long since gotten out of control and become a monster. ”
Chalkin looked at the old man in the prison guard's uniform, and suddenly understood that he was the extraordinary person in charge of guarding the black cell.
"This thing, can suppress extraordinary characteristics?" Chalkin said secretly in his heart, and at the same time, according to the memory of the original owner, he already knew that this was probably the famous 'Black Luo Stone'.
Their usefulness is to suppress the spirituality of the extraordinary, so that the supernatural ability cannot be unleashed smoothly.
These handcuffs cannot be used on their own, and must be combined with the 'Chanisman' (note 1) that seals extraordinary abilities to be effective.
When the extraordinary person with extraordinary characteristics uses the spirituality, the 'Black Luo Stone' wrist cuffs will intercept these spirits in advance and directly offer them to the 'Chanismen' to convert them into the power of the seal, thus further suppressing the seals and the extraordinary ones in the space.
In other words, every time Chalkin uses his extraordinary ability, he will make the guards of the black cell stronger.
Knowing what this thing was in an instant, Chalkin didn't bother to waste his spirits.
He smiled, and instead of picking up the food handed by the old man, he replied:
"Revenge does not stay overnight, this is my guideline. ”
The old man squatted on the ground like this, smiled and chatted with him: "You are very smart, it seems reckless to do this, but in fact, you have calculated that the prison guards will not do anything to you, but will try their best to help you avoid losing control and becoming a monster." ”
Chalkin didn't speak.
Yes, the old man was not wrong.
Before doing this, he was indeed well thought out.
He clearly knew that after showing the extraordinary ability of 'blessing', he already had the value of living.
Even if he had killed Cavigin, he would have been imprisoned rather than killed.
Because no one can guarantee that the extraordinary characteristics left behind by him after his death will still produce a 'blessing' effect.
However, when Chargin saw this unusually sumptuous meal, he was a little bottomless.
Because the meal was so hearty.
It's a huge lunch box with fish, chicken legs, vegetables, fresh fruit and even a bubbling glass of black port.
In this dark death row cell, such a big meal looks like a legendary meal on the road before beheading.
"So, this is the last meal?"
The old man laughed.
"You should know that it's not just the extraordinary, the slaves, and the polluters who are imprisoned here. There are also runaways who are teetering on the edge of 'madness'. ”
"They are in charge of guarding the black cell, and with the help of the seal of Chanisman, they can suppress the loss of control. ”
Saying this, the old man winked at him, pointed to his nose, and said in a relaxed tone, "I, I am the third type of person I just introduced. ”
"And the single room you live in now is a room for 'rotating staff' like us. ”
Chalkin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said in his heart: "Thank God, I made the right bet." ”
But at the same time, he still has a little regret.
Because he risked his life before, he originally planned to use a lot of life force to blow up Cavine's body, or give her 'milk' to become an idiot to prevent future troubles, but it is obvious that Cavine was cut by Ovelas more than 30 times and escaped this catastrophe.
It's a pity that Chalkin didn't kill the other party, after all, he doesn't have so much spiritual energy to use, let alone use the ancient dragon language in front of so many people, and use the 'divine blessing' to completely solve her.
To this extent, it is already his limit.
Pushing the lunch box forward again, the old man continued:
"Black Port, Ovelas sent you as a token of appreciation. The chicken thighs were brought by Edward Howell, and the fruit platter was Melissa. As for the rest...... It's all for you. ”
Chalkin was so clear-minded, in the face of such a luxurious meal, of course he understood what the old man meant.
Pulling directly over the lunch box, Chalkin raised the handcuffs and said:
"Thank you, honorable sir, and if there's a chance to get rid of this thing, I'd like to try using 'Blessing' to see if I can help you. ”
Facing the white beard of the old man of Chalkin's 'upper road', he shook his hand, made a gesture of shaking hands, and introduced himself:
"Very well, young man, I admire you! Don't call me sir, you can call me old Tinny. ”
"Until you get off the bus, stay here for this time and make this your home!"
"If you have any knowledge about the occult in the future, you can ask me......"
PS: Note 1: Chanis Gate: The Gate of Seals, named after the Night Sequence through Archbishop Chanis, is a place to house seals (such as Pandora's Box, Schubert Pocket Watch, etc.) or special formations to hold the extraordinary. - From the funny face of "The Master of Mystery".
