My Cell Prison

Chapter 390: Manor Affairs
[Stuart Manor – Underground Area]

A thick layer of detailed experimental plan, drafted in advance by Han Dong, was handed over to Swollen Doctor.

In addition to the fundamental establishment of experimental equipment and raw material ratios.

It also featured alchemical combination marks for multi-step reactions.

The experimental plan contained nine different avenues, that the Swollen Doctor needed to try and ultimately choose the most optimum method.

Having not been seen for several months.

The doctor’s brain had evolved due to the integration of the Great Lord’s metallic gear structure, with a significant size increase… his strength had already reached the level of the Great Lord.

Displaying subtle signs of advancing into a [Demon].

Through the development of his brain, Swollen Doctor rapidly understood Han Dong’s narration about anti-depressant drugs in a short amount of time.

“Alright… so the primary goal is to stimulate the brain to secrete this substance. I will commence a comprehensive study shortly, and report any progress to the master at any time.

However, the creation of such anti-stress drugs would require substantial initial investments… the risk of loss is high.”

“It doesn’t matter.”

Han Dong had fully realized one thing, earning profits did not matter, as long as he had Dumps as his financial source… moreover, such an investment was quite meaningful.

“Okay, all as per your command, my lord.

I have placed a simple experimental device in your bedroom, for your experiments.

In the coming days, if you stay here, we could converse at any time.”

“Hmm.”

…

Han Dong has asked for a long vacation of ten days this time for exiting the city, not just for the research on anti-depressant drugs.

But also other important tasks.

A Crowman meeting.

Han Dong, in his capacity as the envoy and the manor master, chaired the meeting.

The first proposal was to deal with the screening of [Demons].

Although Han Dong is only one or two years away from breaking the breed, preliminary preparations can already begin.

Moreover, Han Dong’s requirements were very clear… he was not satisfied with ordinary life outside the city and wanted to use [Demons] as the cornerstone of breaking the breed.

Han Dong plans to have the Crow people conduct a tentative search in the ‘Gaine Forest’ to find and collect data on other Demons living in the same forest area.

In the later stage, the search area will gradually be expanded, and once information on the Demon is collected, it will be sent back to Han Dong for selection.

During the meeting, an old crowman with a circle of blue feathers around his neck suddenly raised his hand to speak.

“Sir, are you planning to choose a suitable Demon for [Breaking Seed]?”

“Yes… but, I still need about 1~2 years.”

“Since you, Lord, can merge with Duo Zeya, and cast black magic related to Crowmen, it shows that our Crowman tribe and your attributes are highly compatible.

I, Miz Crow would be more than honored to be a part of you…”

This elder named Miz Crow, actually offered himself willingly.

This surprised Han Dong, voluntarily appearing and asking them to offer themselves were two different things… breaking the breed would fully drain an individual’s essence, which was not much different from death.

“Elder, I have thought about this… However, I am not only proficient in Crowman magic, I lean towards a versatile type of Demon.

Moreover, the elders who sit here have spent hundreds of years to reach their current status, you are all important members of my manor.

I cannot and I do not wish to let you end like this.”

“Sure! We will do our best to find suitable [Demons] for you, my Lord.”

In the subsequent meeting.

Han Dong also proposed to refine and expand the manor according to changes in the population.

…

In the following time.

Han Dong lived in his own bedroom in the castle.

Sometimes, through a secret passage, Swollen Doctor would come directly to the room to discuss experimental issues with Han Dong.

Han Dong, using his prior knowledge, often just gave a slight tip, which was enough to enlighten Swollen Doctor.

The doctor was immensely impressed by Han Dong’s ability.

However, sometimes, the biological pharmaceutical methods Swollen Doctor proposed from a more easily overlooked level were also quite interesting, gradually perfecting the pharmaceutical process.

During the remaining time, Han Dong invited the Crowman elder to his room to discuss various aspects of black magic.

Han Dong seemed to have a unique idea, and was planning to verify it from the Crowman elder.

The elder who was invited was Miz Crow – who had proposed to offer himself during the meeting.

“Your arm seems to have completely changed since the last time you came, my Lord…”

The Elder’s eye, hidden under his feathers, could see through many things, and only didn’t mention Han Dong’s changes during the meeting.

“Hmm… that’s also why I refused your offer. The black magic systems I master are two-fold, one is of the Crowman… and the other is this.”

Han Dong lifted his left arm and gently pinched it.

Immediately, streaks of yellow sand gathered in his palm, forming an incredibly hard scarab beetle.

“Sand…”

The moment Miz Crow got a close look at Han Dong’s left arm through his feather-covered eyes.

He caught sight of magical patterns he had never seen and couldn’t comprehend… it seemed like there was a fearsome mummified face hidden within.

“Sir, your arm seems to have a history of thousands of years, right?”

“Hmm… I need to verify one thing from you, elder.

Because I am now proficient in two different black magic systems, I feel it’s all mixed up… is it possible to merge these two types of magic systems?

I have tried to combine the crow and the yellow sand in private, but failed.”

“The source of black magic is the same, the reason you, my Lord, failed is because the levels of the two kinds of magic are different… the level of the yellow sand system attached to your arm is very high.

Even the simplest of yellow sand secret methods fall under the category of advanced black magic.

However, the crow spells you currently master are still at the basic level; magic of different levels can naturally not be merged.

May I ask, my Lord, how long do you plan to stay out of town this time?”

“Ten days.”

“Given your talent, my Lord, that should be enough to learn one or two advanced crow spells, and the rest I will write into a book for you to continue learning when you return to the city.”

“Good!”

“Additionally, my Lord, you have not broken the breed yet, the basic black magic is enough for you to use.

This kind of advanced magic consumes a lot of energy… your current energy reserve makes it difficult to use this advanced magic for a long time.”

“Hmm, I know… I’ll use it appropriately.”

Next, Miz Crow introduced various advanced Crowman magic systems to Han Dong in detail.

Including the highly offensive Dark explosion,

or the Eye of Crowman that could be used for a widespread reconnaissance,

or even the Crow’s Feather Shield that could provide strong Defense Power.

In the end, Han Dong chose a type of advanced spell.

“Life Divergence” and “Life Absorption”

Which happened to be the type that Miz Crow, the Elder, was best at.
