My Cell Prison

Chapter 505: Chapter 505: Dance
 

Outside the manor – battlefield area.

Lucius, supported by Jane’s shadow, plunged into the enemy territory.

At present, Lucius has directly executed the Mad Feast Baron, shattering a part of the barons’ armies. Now, he contends with the Count’s Guard Army.

The Guard Army, draped in deep red heavy armor, was distinctly different from common blood descendants.

Although Lucius’s blood sword could penetrate the armor and damage the flesh directly, it would still consume much of Lucius’s endurance to kill a soldier from the Guard Army.

Jane also struggled to kill directly with her shadow dagger, even though she stabbed it into the flesh of the Guard Army through the gaps in the armor multiple times.

At present, Lucius is confronting a centurion within the Guard Army.

This centurion, a representative head of the Guard Army delegated by the Count, was more powerful than a common baron and posed a daunting challenge to Lucius due to his double heavy swords.

But… he was still insufficient to suppress Lucius.

The centurion also recognized that Lucius had just come out on top in the “Red banquet”, secured the Royal Blood Brew, and been conferred a title. He had to acknowledge Lucius as ‘Viscount.’

The Count’s tardy return also aroused suspicion in the centurion.

Watching the blood descendant army in constant retreat, he was preparing to issue orders to withdraw to the manor for defense.

Just then, a vital primeval connection was severed.

The centurion’s pupils filled with surprise and fear in an instant; he came to a halt and Lucius chopped off an arm.

Not just the centurion.

The entire blood descendant army froze for a moment, losing all the will to fight, suffering an immediate reduction of 30% of their forces… The situation on the battlefield that had been at a stalemate suddenly broke.

“What happened…why did these guys suddenly lose the will to fight?”

Just as Lucius voiced his doubt.

The centurion, his arm amputated, had a look of shock and disbelief in his eyes… He couldn’t, and didn’t want to, accept such a fact. In his view, such a ridiculous event simply couldn’t have occurred.

He shouted out in despair:

“The count… is dead!!”

All blood descendants felt the severance of their primary link, and the induction with the Count no longer existed.

With the centurion’s exclamation.

Similar cries echoed around the battlefield…

Even those people on the side of Stuart Manor were surprised… The war was still ongoing. How could a mature deviant demon-like count die like that?

Those who were quicker reacted, quickly realizing the crux of the situation.

The only one to have left the battlefield to confront the Count was Han Dong.

Clearly, a lord’s combat occurring in the shadows.

Eventually concluded with Han Dong prevailing, and what’s more, the Scarlet Count had been completely executed by Han Dong.

A raucous din of crows!

A howling chorus of ghouls!

The Swollen Doctor’s eyes were full of absolute reverence for the Lord.

Putting away the blood sword in his hands, Lucius was staring in the direction of the Scarlet Manor. Waves of emotion surged in his heart as he exclaimed:

“If these two were really on humanity’s side, then the Holy City would reach its zenith like never before within a few years! We might actually achieve true freedom in our lifetime.”

Jane also emerged from the shadows.

Although she didn’t speak, she couldn’t evaluate her junior using the usual perspective.

Inside Stuart Manor.

About five minutes ago, Dumps woke up in a state of extreme weakness and sighed softy:

“You went ahead and killed off the Mad Laughing Count… It’s a pity I didn’t get to witness the scene of your battle. I really wanted to see how you managed to kill an entire mature Deviant Demon.

Moreover, one that was bred using the fresh life form created by Blood Brew.

For a Blood Descendant to break the breed with your unique mind… perhaps you really could succeed.”

The Lord is dead.

The third victory condition for the Land Deed War has been achieved.

The war is over. What remains of the Blood Descendants will fall prisoner to the new Lord… the surviving soldiers of Scarlet Manor will no longer have any will to resist. From now on, they will serve the new Lord.

Lucius’ team, the Crowman Elder, and the Swollen Doctor gather.

Lenze, who once had prejudices against Dumps, now using Dead Spirit Skill, creates a flying bone chair, allowing the weakened Dumps to sit and float around.

“Let’s go… let’s see how Nicholas is doing. He should be using the Count’s Demon Nucleus Crystal to break the breed.”

The defeated blood descendants make way.

When everyone set foot in the Scarlet Manor, they immediately felt something strange.

The once flourishing scarlet flowers inside the mansion were now ash-white and withering… the vibrant life essence that the Scarlet Manor used to have, nourished by Blood Brew, was gone.

Everyone felt as though they were stepping into a graveyard.

“Death Qi… what happened?”

As a Dead Spirit Mage, Lenze sensed that there was a very thin spread of Death Qi inside the manor. If one lived in this area for a long period, their lifespan would correspondingly decrease.

The source of the Death Qi was the mansion situated at the center of manor.

Led by Lenze, following the changes in Death Qi concentration, they moved through the mansion…

“This is a special route that Nicholas had me scout out in advance. The end leads to the Count’s private theater… which used to be guarded by multiple members of the Guard Army,” said Jane.

“Has this guy been planning this from the very start?”

As Lucius and the others moved through the building, they coincidentally ran into Han Dong’s two containment items: Togu and Chen Li.

Chen Li’s condition appeared to be quite alright.

Togu, on the other hand, was covered in wounds, giving off a ‘beaten black and blue’ vibe, yet he seemed to be enjoying his current condition.

Lucius and the others had already encountered too many bizarre situations along the way, and were no longer surprised by the states of Chen Li and Togu. They quickly moved deeper into the building in search of Han Dong’s whereabouts.

If Han Dong was in the process of breaking the breed, he would need their protection. He must not be disturbed by others.

From the open theater door, intense piano music could be heard.

Just like a drama was being staged.

Of course, along with it, waves of death essence were also flowing out.

Lenze managed to shield everyone from the influence of the Death Qi through the Dead Spirit Skill. As they stepped into the theater, they were shocked by what they saw.

On the stage, lightly covered in miasma, was a man cloaked in a black coat. He was dancing passionately to the beat of the piano music, venting his surge of emotions.

The dancer was skinny, so much so that the lines of his ribs could be seen through his clothes.

On his pale face, a grotesque wide-mouthed grin was painted with some black viscous dye, expressing his joy in this artistic form.

In his hand was the prize of this Land Deed War – the active Land Deed (Scarlet Manor).

The man releasing Death Qi and dancing wildly in the theater was none other than Han Dong, who had just completed breaking the breed.

In the very moment when his emotions were fully vented,

Han Dong happened to be standing at the very front of the stage…

He took a step back, bowed slightly, and took his leave.

The current Han Dong had completed his unique Breaking the Breed ceremony. The two Fate Seeds deep in his brain had perfectly fused in the nourishment of blood, growing into a one-of-a-kind Talent Tree…
