My Cell Prison-Chapter 707 - : The Source of Everything
Chapter 707: Chapter 707: The Source of Everything
The reason the clown cannot be killed is not because he is indestructible, but rather he cannot be killed.
The key reason lies in the laughter attribute that the clown possesses.
When discussing the clown’s manic laughter, two crucial points must be brought up, which are also the main problems caused by this laughter.
≮First Point, the disaster at Other Derry Town≯
The essence of the disaster is the “clown virus”. Unlike common viruses, it can be transmitted directly through sound (The mechanism works by the brain absorbing the audio, with the stimulation of neuronal signals, forcing the stem cells in the body to differentiate, causing the individual to self-assemble and form the virus).
Once infected, there will be a lengthy latency period during which there are no symptoms and the virus cannot be detected by any means… it can only be estimated by combining virology and statistics.
...
Derry Town estimates that the number of infected individuals (including common animals) is around 23% of the total number of living beings.
In reality, the number Han Dong saw went over the estimated amount by 10%.
This brings us to the most terrifying part, the reason the disaster couldn’t be contained and the fundamental reason the clown couldn’t be killed—[Reincarnation]
Even if the clown’s soul is extracted from his body and he is completely killed.
Any infected carrier will erupt with the virus in a short time, becoming possessed by the clown virus and devouring their own consciousness… transforming into a brand-new clown and inheriting some of the host’s abilities.
The clown would also choose a crucial item from the reincarnation host to toss into his ‘Treasure Box’.
However, this ability is not insoluble… the mayor has actually found a reasonable solution.
As long as the clown’s body doesn’t completely die, [Reincarnation] cannot occur.
Therefore, the mayor has chosen to disassemble the clown and store him in different areas… creating an absolute quarantine.
The quarantine would last for dozens of years, waiting for all the external virus carriers to pass their latency period and develop symptoms of maniacal laughter, before executing them all.
But this method takes too long, and no one can be sure how long the latency period actually lasts. If even a single one slips through the net… all would be lost.
≮The second point is Han Dong himself≯
Three years ago.
As the one who came into the most ‘intimate’ contact with the clown in [The Return of the Clown (Surface Chapter)], Han Dong has been infected with the virus.
Even though he has left the World of Fate, Han Dong can still occasionally see illusions of the clown running out from corners, in a seemingly friendly manner signalling that danger is about to occur, especially when danger is imminent.
He reminds him not to die,
He reminds him that he must come alive to Other Derry Town.
Such hallucinations are indeed symptoms of severe infection during the latency period.
What the clown is worrying about is not Han Dong.
It’s just that if Han Dong dies, he would lose a potential host for reincarnation… Of all the beings the clown has come into contact with, Han Dong is the most interesting.
Once Han Dong arrives at [Other Derry Town], the clown will do anything to kill himself, in order to then reincarnate using Han Dong as a host.
…The conclusions above were drawn when Han Dong arrived at Other Derry Town.
Before he arrived, Han Dong could only be sure of one thing, that he was severely affected by Pennywise’s ability, and it was deadly.
Since leaving the surface world, Han Dong has been trying to find a solution, but he has never found one… Perhaps Mr.Black White knows the way to remove it, but did not directly tell Han Dong due to the ‘Destiny Order’.
The turning point as well as something the clown couldn’t predict, happened one year ago.
The Guideline- “Red Plague Incident”
In the civilian area of Holy City, Han Dong came into contact with individuals infected with the Scarlet Plague and discovered features similar to the clown’s maniacal laughter… He then confirmed the identity of a key figure through various channels.
It was the Scarlet Count who had come to visit the outskirts of the Holy City because of personal issues.
Mr.Black White immediately arranged for Han Dong and Dumps to follow the squad of [Blood Knights-Lucius] out of the city.
They are going to investigate the situation at the Alagat Mountain Range. Officially, they were asking Han Dong and Dumps to try to hook the ‘big fish’ in the Holy City through the Scarlet Count as the ‘middleman’ for the association.
In reality, this was also a chance for Han Dong himself.
Upon seeing the count, Han Dong made up his mind immediately.
He decided to target the Count in order to fully understand the ‘maniacal laughter’, striving to eliminate or directly assimilate the clown virus infecting him, even though the two people’s attributes did not perfectly match, Han Dong decided to do so.
As a scientist’s intuition, it told Han Dong… the [maniacal laughter] attribute is essential, it could allow Han Dong to go solo outside of the city, and it might even form an extremely crucial connection with his brain in the future.
Subsequently, after reconciling opinions with the consciousness of the count.
He immediately ran the experiment on the “clown’s arm”.
Let the count’s “consciousness” directly cover the clown’s consciousness on the arm, achieving assimilation of the manic laughter for the first time, proving the feasibility of the plan…At the same time, Han Dong also felt a bit ‘incomplete’.
The [maniacal laughter] between the count and the clown represented two different attributes. The fusion of both would achieve true completeness.

Therefore, even though Han Dong won first place at the knight’s selection, he didn’t choose his title…Because he hasn’t been completed yet.
Currently, Han Dong has not fully broken the breed.
He had to venture into the other chapter world, find the clown, only then [Talent Tree – Smiley] could be completed.
…These two key points led to the current situation.
Han Dong cooperates with the town to handle ‘Pennywise’.
With West’s brain device, working with Dean Richard’s ‘Color Bridge’ and Han Dong’s little demon eye, they peeked into and connected to the core matrix inside the clown’s body… locating all infected individuals connected to it.
Execute them all.
From the infected people found, there were even Ma Taotao and Yu Wu from the Dragon City Team, both were in the latent period.
When they got the information, the two immediately terminated the current destiny event and left space… [Reincarnation] cannot happen across worlds, so they should be fine.
As long as all the virus carriers are handled.
Only the clown’s body remains.
When that time comes, all the physical bodies will be collected and put together, a fatal blow will end everything, achieving the final outcome.
However…What Han Dong wants to achieve is not this outcome, but a real outcome, the perfect outcome.
The signals on hundreds of televisions were cut off one by one, representing that the infected were being handled one by one… The one who put in the most effort to win the mayor’s attention was undoubtedly Madam Clerk Funa.
With arms flowing like rivers in the streets and alleys… infected individuals fully blossom in a short time.
Following that, Cass and Diana from the Human Demon Party also tried their best to kill enemies.
When the last television screen turned to static.
Han Dong immediately laid out all the clown’s limbs stored in the lab.
“Prepare to start… *cough* *cough* *cough*!”
He coughed out a trace amount of dissolved body parts, his current body can’t hold out for long, but Han Dong was calm as the night…
