Chapter 46: Your Mission is to Survive!

Bang!

Ivan threw the revolver in his hand away as if he had touched something dirty.

Then, he quickly checked his bony frame.

It was quite a while before he seemed to let out a sigh of relief.

"I felt like that gun was going to eat my bones!"

His voice carried a lingering fear.

Just then, the prison doctor sat up and applied a potion to his leg.

It was a potion related to flesh multiplication.

It was the same potion he had applied to Lu Xiao earlier.

Two hours later.

The three of them sat on the floor in a circle, staring at each other.

Lu Xiao had already recovered by now, thanks to his terrifying cell activity and the prison doctor's potion.

The missing flesh had regrown.

The prison doctor said to Lu Xiao,

"Lu! Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

The corner of Lu Xiao's mouth twitched wildly.

"Mr. Prison Doctor, do you think I could speak in that state earlier?"

Hearing Lu Xiao's words, Ivan turned to the prison doctor.

"Prison Doctor! Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

The prison doctor let out an awkward laugh, the sound particularly piercing.

"Hehe! I forgot!"

The soul fire in Ivan's eye sockets jumped wildly.

"I really want to pull out your bones and make a nightstand out of them!"

…………

In the physical training room.

Dart was directing the squad through physical training.

"Strange, why does the back of my head feel so itchy lately?"

He reached back and scratched the back of his head.

Suddenly, an intense pain swept through his entire body.

The feeling was like poking an eye.

The pain made him bend over.

Little Rain saw this and hurried over, her face full of concern.

"Captain, what's wrong?"

She helped Dart up.

"Little Rain, can you check what's wrong with the back of my head?"

Dart's voice was somewhat hoarse.

Little Rain nodded and looked at the back of Dart's head.

"Yah!"

Instantly, she let out a cry of surprise.

"Captain... you... this...!!"

Dart was bewildered. The other squad members gathered around at this moment.

"Ah?..."

Everyone's expression was one of horror.

On the back of Dart's head was an eye filled with red blood vessels.

Around the eyeball, countless tiny tentacles extended from the corners of the eye, squirming.

Slick's voice trembled.

"Captain... why is your eye growing on your head?"

Soon, they brought Dart to find the Doctor.

The Doctor looked at the back of Dart's head and fell into deep thought.

"Doctor, what's wrong with the captain?" Little Rain asked urgently.

The Doctor didn't answer Little Rain's question but instead asked Dart,

"Can you see behind you?"

Dart nodded.

"Ever since I scratched the back of my head just now, images of what's behind me have appeared in my mind."

The Doctor quickly analyzed the cause.

"It should be related to that drop of blood from S292. Let's go ask the prison doctor."

…………

Lu Xiao stared intently at the back of Dart's head.

Dart instantly felt a chill shoot straight to the top of his skull.

"Lu... Mr. Lu Xiao, is there a problem?"

Lu Xiao licked his lips.

"It's nothing, I just feel a bit... hungry!"

"How about you let me have a lick? Just one lick!"

Hearing this, Dart's hair stood on end, and he hurriedly hid behind the Doctor.

The Doctor, adjusting his monocle, asked,

"Prison Doctor, what's his condition?"

The prison doctor pinched his chin, thinking for a long time.

Just moments ago, he had taken some of Dart's blood and smelled it.

"Some kind of curse!"

The Doctor said gravely,

"Is it the same curse as the one on S292?"

The prison doctor shook his head.

"A completely different curse!"

The Doctor adjusted his monocle.

"Will he die?"

The prison doctor let out two eerie laughs.

"Hehe! How could that be, my friend!"

"Perhaps it might even be a good thing?"

Hearing the prison doctor's words, Dart felt an inexplicable sense of dread.

The Doctor said gravely,

"In two days, the investigation team will arrive!"

"If they see you like this, it will be troublesome!"

He thought for a moment, then his gaze fell on Lu Xiao.

"Maybe you should hide in the Dark Prison."

Lu Xiao stepped forward at this point, patting his chest.

"The Dark Prison? I know the Dark Prison well! How about I take him to the Dark Prison?"

"Then I can introduce him to Uncle Chainsaw, Uncle Chainsaw will protect him!"

The Doctor adjusted his monocle, pondering for a moment.

"That could work! Then, S292, you take Dart on this trip!"

Dart, however, was somewhat worried. He asked the prison doctor,

"Mr. Prison Doctor, can't this curse be cured?"

The prison doctor let out two strange laughs.

"Of course it can. The simplest method is to eliminate the one who cast the curse!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes turned to Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao grinned, reached into his pants pocket, took out a badge, and hung it around his neck.

The Doctor adjusted his monocle.

"Dart, going to the Dark Prison is a mission!"

Hearing this, no matter how unwilling he was, Dart could only agree.

After all, for special forces soldiers like them, obeying orders was the first rule.

Lu Xiao put his arm around Dart's shoulder, grinning.

"Don't worry, Uncle Chainsaw is a very good person!"

Dart nodded, half believing, half doubting.

The Doctor spoke into his communicator,

"Have S303 bring S302 to the prison doctor's place!"

Soon, a Ford Raptor pickup truck materialized inside the prison doctor's containment room.

The Driver got out from the driver's seat.

He had somehow acquired a pair of sunglasses to wear.

He was even dressed in a suit and leather shoes, looking like a successful businessman.

The prison doctor's piercing voice rang out.

"My friend! You must knock before entering; this is very rude!"

Hearing this, the Driver hurriedly retreated back into S302-The Vehicle.

As the vehicle started, it vanished on the spot.

A moment later, a doorbell rang.

The door opened, and the Driver peeked his head in.

"Mr. Prison Doctor, may I come in?"

…………

In front of the 'Gate'.

The Doctor instructed,

"S292, you only have two days. You must return to the facility within two days!"

Lu Xiao flicked the badge on his chest.

"Don't worry, Dr. Doctor!"

The Doctor then looked at the Driver.

"S303, passing through this Gate will lead into the Dark Prison!"

"Similarly, you can only return through a 'Gate'!"

He pointed at the watch on the Driver's wrist.

"There's a map on it, it will indicate which 'Gate' you need to use!"

The Driver nodded solemnly.

"Don't worry, Doctor!"

Finally, the Doctor looked at Dart.

He reached out and gently patted Dart's shoulder.

"Dart, your mission in the Dark Prison is... to survive!"

Dart's body trembled. Then, he stood at attention.

His right hand formed a fist and was placed over his heart in a salute.

The remaining members of the City Fire Squad also saluted Dart.

They all knew that once Dart left, they might never see him again.

The Ford Raptor pickup truck roared to life as Dart sat silently in the back seat.

The Driver stepped on the accelerator and passed through the glowing white 'Gate'!
