My Cell Prison
Chapter 41: Bounty and Ghouls

"Fifty-fifty!"

It was initially set at seventy-three percent at the time of temporary recruitment.

During the mission, due to the correct deduction given by Han Dong that an escape tunnel existed in the basement, Cass increased his score to 40%.

Later, thanks to Han Dong's assistance, only one ghoul was released and killed with Han Dong's unique ability to slay the ghoul.

Cass Martini, after submitting the bounty mission, directly distributed half a heavy bag of copper coins to Han Dong in front of the church.

"This much?" Han Dong was a little surprised that this bag of copper coins was at least around a hundred coins.

"If it wasn't for your help this time Andeva, not only would I not be able to complete the mission, my life would even be in danger. You deserve this... Also, according to your request, only my name was mentioned when the mission was turned in."

Cass didn't ask too much about why Han Dong had deliberately hidden it, after all, everyone had privacy... Cass reckoned that Han Dong had sneaked out, and if the academy found out, these bounties could be claimed for nothing.

"Hmm."

Han Dong wasn't sure for the moment how much the half of the bag of coins was worth.

"Friend Andeva, is your summon a 'contract signing type' or a 'mind control type'? Awesome!"

"The former it is."

"Looks like it wasn't a coincidence that you were able to obtain the Fate Weapon!

Can you leave a contact? In the future, if there are any bounty missions that need to be solved as a team, or until an important 'Destiny Space', we can perform them together with you.

Don't look at the injuries I suffered against the ghouls before, but I'm still very good when I'm serious."

It wasn't that Han Dong didn't want to team up.

It was good for Han Dong's future to get to know a [Crusader] who had already allocated 3 Fate Points.

It was just that Han Dong didn't know how to answer this question.

Contact information, naturally, represented the contemporary means of communication.

However, according to normal history, the means of communication in the Age of Steam was still at the 'paper letter' stage... The telegraph had only appeared at the beginning of the Second Industrial Revolution.

On this point, Han Dong asked Nina.

The result was that 'electricity' did not yet exist in the holy city of Nointeina, and naturally, the telegraph did not exist either, still the subsequent means of radio communication.

However, the means of communication still existed.

In the context of special times, the supernatural and steam technology collided head-on, and the humans in these times developed an alternative means of communication.

Copper parts and gears are used to output relevant signals.

The signal is transmitted through a precise magic array to identify the signal, which can achieve 'timely transmission' and 'directional transmission'.

In other words, it was equivalent to a communication product produced by the combination of magic and metal.

What exactly it looked like, Han Dong did not know.

Just when Han Dong didn't know how to answer 'contact', Cass used his index finger and thumb to snap the wind-up device on his wrist.

The original watch-like winding mechanism made a 'clicking sound'.

It folded and unfolded.

The precision brass keys appear from the inside, giving the winding mechanism an operating panel similar to that of an old-fashioned mobile phone, with the 1-9 brass keys having a touch similar to that of a typewriter.

Han Dong immediately followed suit, and as a result, an operation panel was created for the clockwork device.

At the same time, at the bottom of the clockwork device, a digital code was generated... the local number.

In this way, the two exchanged numbers, and Han Dong was considered to have officially bonded with a 'trainee knight'.

At least it could be seen through the ghoul incident that Cass Martini was a good person and worth befriending.

"That's it, I'll have to take this armor and repair it quickly, we'll be in touch if there's anything else in the future."

"Well, bye."

To be honest, Han Dong, who had just gotten out of Destiny Space, hadn't had time to study this wind-up device.

On the other hand, Han Dong had been staring at the wind-up device for half a day observing it, feeling that it was a masterpiece, and there might be other auxiliary functions... activated with Han Dong becoming a trainee knight.

"Go home."

Han Dong lent himself as a trainee knight and set off from the church, crossing the Moslabi River which had a guard post to return to the familiar civilian area of Samai.

Nina had already registered the 'trainee knight' family in the security branch, and the family would not be subject to the region's mandatory rules and would be able to move out of the slum at any time.

Han Dong had just returned home.

Nina flew and hugged him tightly, slurring her words somewhat in excitement.

After all, Han Dong had brought so much change to this family.

"Brother... you know what! After you were taken, Sheriff Dace himself came to apologize and gave us five coins! Now there's no need to worry about what you want to eat."

"Is five copper coins a lot?"

"A lot! Mother only earns ten copper coins a year working outside... I follow Master, and occasionally I'm in a good mood and will be given a copper coin at the end of the month."

"Oh?"

Han Dong directly placed the sack in his hands on the table.

Hearing the metallic clanging sound from the sack... Nina's body shook.

Han Dong said with a normal face, "You and your mother can take this money and use it... If you want to move to the other side of the Moslabi River then, you should need to replace brand new furniture, right?"

Nina couldn't make a sound.

Instead, she slowly approached the sack and opened it.

Piles of copper coins, Nina had never seen, never even dreamed of so many coins.

Standing dumbfounded, unable to say a word, even her eyes became a little disorganized.

After waiting for half a moment, Nina gulped and whispered.

"Brother, did you...did you use the power you got to rob..."

"Don't worry, the money obtained from normal channels."

"How... how much money is this!?"

"I don't know, I haven't counted it. Anyway, just keep it and I'll come back to you for it if I need it financially. The rest is yours to do with as you please."

"Brother... I... I." Nina was so anxious that she was about to cry.

"Count how much money you have first, just put it away...we'll use it when we move to the other side of the Moslabi River."

"Got it, got it!!!"

Nina held the money bag in her hand and looked around for fear that a stranger might find the large sum of money, then quickly made her way to the bedroom she shared with her mother.

First, she counted the huge sum of money one by one before storing the money bag at the bottom of the wardrobe.

As for Han Dong, he would return to his bedroom alone as usual, closing and locking the door... until dinner time, when Nina would naturally have to come and call him.

Han Dong didn't care much about the coins, since he could obtain them through the bounty mission, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future.

What Han Dong cared about was the [Unexpected Harvest] this time.

This time's ghoul incident, It could not be as simple as just obtaining a bounty.

Han Dong also harvested the 'Cell Essence', a complete mature ghoul arm, and a book about 'ghouls' found by Chen Li in the residence.

(Chen Li does not understand English, but her visual images are actively communicated to Han Dong, who guides her to locate the relevant books.)

Han Dong reads quickly as if reading scientific literature.

In a short period of time, he finishes reading the relevant books, simplifies the information, and arranges it in a notebook. Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ N0ᴠᴇFɪre.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

[Ghoul (Ghoul)]

Causes: cemetery work, degenerative thoughts.

Common in cemetery workers or people who live around cemeteries, the body is in a 'graveyard state' when infected with cemetery fungus or subjected to gloom and doom.

Common characteristics such as anorexia, aversion to sunlight and fear of life.

Once this symptom is detected the individual needs to go to the house of worship and receive the associated sacred baptism...and not approach the cemetery until the symptoms subside.

If left untreated, the individual has a 70% chance of dying and a 20% chance of going mad.

The remaining 10% likelihood is that the individual will be affected by 'depravity' and evolve into a ghoul by establishing a hidden connection on a mental level with 'higher beings' outside the walls during nighttime dreaming.

Newborn ghouls need to feed on eerie objects such as graveyard moss and weeds.

With a strong appetite for food and only active at night, they can be easily identified by their green skin and the putrid smell they emit.

Once fed enough and fully matured, the ghoul will have the ability to think straight and will attempt to reproduce and build a ghoul nest.
