My Cell Prison

Chapter 398: Chapter 398: Omen Pouch

The so-called candy bag was a small black cloth bag with a pattern of an octopus face printed on the surface and could conveniently be hung from the waist.

When Han Dong reached out to touch it, there was again a system prompt:

“You have picked up the important item for this event–[Bag of Omen].”

Whenever the ‘myth stage’ arrives, a card must be drawn from the bag and a dice roll is required.

The ‘Omen’ judgment is only invalid if the value marked on the Omen card is ‘equal’ to the dice roll… In other cases, the event corresponding to the Omen card will happen immediately.

When you successfully escape from, resolve, or avoid an Omen event, you will receive an equal amount of the ‘Omen value’ from the Omen card.

When the Omen judgment fails, the probability of drawing the card- ‘Despair Moment’ will be increased (it will eventually rise to 100%).

Once you draw ‘Despair Moment’, you must draw two Omen cards from the bag again, they will be activated immediately without having to roll the dice.

※The setting of the Despair Moment is aimed at participants with incredibly good luck.

Note: ①[Bag of Omen] cannot be spied, burned, or lost.

②. The process of rolling the dice can’t be interfered with by outside forces and is related to individual luck.

③. The so-called myth stage will appear according to the development of the plot. At that time, participants will receive a prompt.”

……

“Omens…So this is how it’s set up, which means fortuitous dangers are inevitable.

Even if my luck is exceptionally good, something would still happen.

Aren’t there too many rules and settings in Single-Player Mode? I have the feeling that this Fate event is extremely dangerous, but there might be some unexpected opportunities.

I intended to take Togu and Chen Li for some training, I didn’t expect it to turn out like this.”

The opening free activity time was half an hour.

Han Dong immediately began to investigate the villa he had temporarily rented.

The “Mist” event gave Han Dong a writer’s identity, but unlike in the “Clown Revival”, it didn’t forcibly insert corresponding memories.

Han Dong needed to understand his own identity.

When arriving on the second floor of the villa.

Due to the impact of yesterday’s storm, a large tree in the courtyard smashed directly into the villa, completely destroying the study.

Han Dong, relying on the power of the G Arm, forcibly tore open the blocked study door to inspect the interior.

(It should be noted that the town is located on the central island of a large lake. Most of the resident buildings are located on the edge of the island, offering a beautiful view of the lake and the distant mountains.)

Through the gap broken by the big tree, Han Dong could see the dense white mist lingering between the mountains at the other end of the lake.

The mist was slowly moving towards the small town.

This was how the “Mist” film began.

Inside the study smashed by the big tree, various books were scattered all over the floor, as well as some manuscripts belonging to Han Dong, the writer.

“Hmm…There’s only a title? The rest are all blank pages? Could it be… I’m severely blocked in my writing, so I came here to find inspiration? This is a bit strange.”

The manuscripts scattered all over the floor were all blank pages.

The only piece of blank paper had a capital English title written on it——”MI”

Han Dong continued to search for some clues that might be used in the study.

“Judging from the scattered books, it seems I am a horror writer… Why would I come to this small town to gather material? Is there any local horror legend? At least it was not mentioned in the movie.””

Without any effective clues, the half-hour preparation time ended.

『Plot Guide: Go to the supermarket』

Objective: Please arrive at the Comprehensive Supermarket in the town center within 20 minutes.

Note: This guide has no additional options and must be carried out.

“In the beginning part, there will be a requirement for me to follow the original movie plot… At present, I have not experienced any Omens. In the early stage, following the movie plot I am familiar with can also be considered as a stable opening move.”

When Han Dong went to the cloakroom to change clothes, he found that the clothes in the wardrobe were rather middle-aged in style, both monotonous and old-fashioned.

Finally, Han Dong put on a white shirt and a pair of relatively loose trousers and leather shoes before setting off immediately.

Just like in the movie plot.
