My Cell Prison

Chapter 26: Main Specialization Class and Destiny Card

[Mysticism]

Intuition.

Although, as a researcher, one needs to make rigorous scientific arguments about various phenomena, and give conclusions by combining experimental phenomena with basic theoretical support.

But intuition, a seemingly ethereal feeling, is equally important.

Especially when you take on a brand-new topic that is poorly researched around the world and you can't find a suitable entry point, you need intuition to open the first path.

In Han Dong's opinion, intuition is not created out of thin air.

Rather, it is the result of a quick, non-ideological reckoning by the brain based on all the information it has gathered, including broken memories at the subconscious level. n0ve(l)bi(n.)co/m

As a rule, the smarter a person is, and the more experience and knowledge he or she has, the more accurate his or her intuition is.

When he currently looked at the fifth door, Han Dong followed his intuition and slowly leaned over.

"Western Mysticism... This discipline came to a close in my original world with the publication of Copernicus's Theory of the Operation of the Celestial Bodies and the introduction of the Blood Circulation Theory in the mainstream.

But in the current world with magical elements and all kinds of supernatural abilities, [Mysticism] naturally exists.

The ancient occultists were experts in mathematics, alchemy, religious theories, herbal medicine, astrology, and magical charms; they were the "scientists" of their time.

They were the "scientists" of that era. Indeed....I, who majored in cell biology, might be more suitable for mysticism.

Moreover, this head I picked up from the prison might not be explained from the magic level, and perhaps the answer can only be obtained from the mysticism."

Han Dong also took out the fate item he had harvested in this incident, the "Plague Doctor's Short Blade".

"In order to use the true abilities of this prop, one also needs to specialize in [Mysticism]... Coincidence? Still, the underworld is already set in stone."

There was no time limit for assigning fate points, and Han Dong gave himself half an hour to make a comprehensive consideration before finally deciding to push open the ebony door that was a symbol of the mysticism.

The interior was not the grotesque room filled with all sorts of occult objects that Han Dong had imagined, but a small, dark, closed compartment.

A bronze chair with a variety of precision instruments (syringes, catheters, metal headgear) was set up in the center of the room.

It seemed that the only option was to 'sit on it'.

I have 2 Destiny Points left, will I use all of them?

{Note: At least 5 Destiny points will be allocated to perfect the main profession, and a subsequent branch of the talent tree will appear. Before five points are reached, it is recommended to put all the existing fate points into it. }

With that being said, what else did Han Dong have to choose from.

From the information obtained so far, it seemed that the Destiny journey had only just begun.

Although Han Dong had completed it in a near-perfect manner in the first event, there was still a lot of road ahead.

At least until his career was confirmed, Han Dong was still at the rookie level, but he was definitely a level higher in status than the newcomers who had yet to enter the Destiny Space.

Phew....

Take a deep breath.

Choose to assign points.

CLICK, CLICK, CLICK!

The brass chair's blocking device immediately locked Han Dong's entire body in place, with more than ten syringes accessed precisely through tubes into Han Dong's blood vessels, as well as a special syringe piercing the cervical spine from the back of the neck.

The pain was inevitable.

For Han Dong, who had endured the torment of cancer, he was still holding on.

With the injection of an unknown solvent, Han Dong could clearly feel that his body was changing, or rather, his head was changing.

About half an hour passed.

The injection process ended.

Han Dong's frail flesh hadn't undergone any changes, only....

Squeak squeak

A speckled tentacle emerges from the palm.

This was Han Dong's subjective behavior... This time, the use of tentacles no longer caused a feeling of weakness, but instead, there was a feeling of being able to close and close freely.

It was obvious.

The two Fate Points invested into [Mysticism] allowed Han Dong to become more proficient in his control of the "Faceless Man's Head", and his entire brain had an unprecedented sense of refreshment.

There was even a vague feeling that there was an odd energy in the brain that could be manipulated by itself, but Han Dong could not yet find a way to use this power.

Obviously, Han Dong's intuition and choice was correct.

Mysticism was related to this Faceless Man's head....

"If this continues, is it possible to upgrade the "Faceless Man's Head"? Once the prison can be upgraded, it can house more special beings!!!"

The always reserved Han Dong was also smiling excitedly at this moment.

Not only was he excited about gaining inhuman strength, but he also found a way to have his head upgraded... Once the prison was expanded, it would be able to house other special beings, which would all become Han Dong's 'personal strength'.

Right at this moment.

A cue came from the Fate Space.

If you continue to allocate 3 more points to your major, you will be able to strengthen your foundation and open the 'Mystic Talent Tree'.

The next time you enter the Destiny Space, it is recommended that you travel in a group with an Apprentice of the same level (who has not opened the Talent Tree).

"Mystic Apprentice... When I return to the Holy City, I hope that a relevant organization will accept me and learn the relevant means of using Mysticism.

I must not use this in front of others until I fully understand the origin of the 'Faceless Man's Head'."

Just as Han Dong was immersed in joy, the iron chair in the room changed into a crystal round table.

" What!?"

Han Dong was completely unaware of this change process.

Please select a Destiny card (Novice level) and the corresponding bonus will be granted when the card is revealed.

Right.

Han Dong was only able to get out of his excitement, recalling that he still had one more reward he hadn't received.

Destiny cards that originally only had a low probability of being obtained, after completing the branching plot, the probability increased by 10%... but it was still not high.

I didn't expect that the settlement reward would actually appear.

Luck was also part of strength.

On the crystal table, there were four golden cards with identical backs placed at equal intervals.

"Draw one at random... Cheating in a place like this is a complete death wish."

Han Dong used to draw the one on his left hand.

Upon touching the card, the other three immediately disappeared.

The card drawn in Han Dong's hand had the [Holy Grail] pattern printed on the front... followed by a miracle.

With a flash of golden light, the card disappeared, and was replaced by a solid chalice with a clear liquid inside.

"Destiny Card (Holy Grail): Drinking it increases a basic ability

It has been detected that the individual has not yet acquired the basic ability of [Mysticism], and the current consumption of the chalice is invalid.

This chalice is a beginner's enhancement. It does not affect the subject's tentacle-type (higher) ability.

Note: The Holy Grail has a shelf life of one day, so please use it as soon as possible.

"This... is a bit of a rip-off!"

Han Dong didn't think he could be introduced to one of the Holy City's mystic organizations and acquire a basic skill in one day.

Immediately changing his thinking, Han Dong took the Holy Grail straight back to the prison area and handed it over to the prison's only shelter, [Sinister Chen Li].
