Chapter 129: Conspiracy
Faceless' skull upgrade complete! Current rank is LV.2
Wow!
Han Dong woke up in the basement with his tentacles withdrawn from his neck and his face changed to that of "Nicholas Valen".
A strong feeling of nausea comes over him.
Ugh!
What was vomited was not the usual stomach fluids.
Instead, it was some filthy, murky liquid, plus fish bones, octopus' whiskers, and shellfish!
"This! I, "
Memories of spending a lifetime as a fisherman in [Inns mouth].
Not as illusory as a dream, but as realistic as reality, it was deeply imprinted on Han Dong's mind.
Han Dong, who eventually sailed to the sea, seemed to hear a nameless call to abandon his fishing boat and embrace the sea.
"Inns mouth, this memory, so hard to block out!"
It is different from the memory of 14 years of Derry Town life that was implanted when he entered Derry Town.
This memory was Han Dong's own experience and contained 'emotions' in it.
Staring at the puddle of vomit in front of him, Han Dong surprisingly had a hard time distinguishing the memory from the real one.
The identity of the 'fish-man'.
Body changed in the fish-man's direction.
That call from the depths.
As if imprinted in Han Dong's mind, it couldn't be shaken off.
Sensing Han Dong's abnormality, Chen Li approached at the first opportunity and extended her hand to assist.
"Chen, Miss Chen Li! How long has it been?"
"Three hours and 27 minutes, The Joker house is quiet for now, they should have held the [Purgatory Friar] back for now."
The time was normal, the situation was normal.
But Han Dong didn't have any of the joyful expressions due to the success of the skull upgrade on his face, his face was gloomy and his thoughts were disordered.
"Give me a break, I'm uncomfortable."
The skull upgrade, energy refill, tentacles and small magic eye abilities were all improved.
But Han Dong's discomfort was on a spiritual level.
The fierce stench of sea fish and the heavy dampness, coupled with the personal experience of the flesh turning into a 'fish-man', this caused Han Dong to feel intense discomfort on a spiritual level.
Han Dong continued to rest.
Closing his eyes to rest.
Pondering the meaning of this 'fisherman's life' appearing.
"Could it be that [Town of Inns mouth] has something to do with this head of mine? Is it a memory that the owner of this head has stored in the past? Or is it one of the memories that belongs.
After leaving Destiny Space, I must check through the channels to see if there is a place in the original world called [Inns mouth]."
(Ten-minute break.)
Block out as much of this fisherman's memory as possible.
Ease up.
Han Dong did not rush forward to participate in the Monk's battle.
Instead, he pulled out an old book from his pocket.
It was to take out the large clue obtained by clearing the [Twisted Sewer] event: 'The Terrifying History of Derry town'.
The three words 'Derry Town' were printed on the surface of the book.
This book is extremely valuable for this Destiny Event.
Even though there are many branching quests within 'The Joker's Return (Table Chapter)', a large branch like this is the only one on the auxiliary quest collector.
Such clues will substantially unlock the secrets of 'New Derry Town' and the Joker's origin information.
The contents of this book will explain the origin of New Derry Town, which is the Joker's arrival from [Mile] to [Table], and the things that affect New Derry Town.
"Let's hope this large clue will help me understand something.
It will help me understand Pennywise thoroughly!
Phew, I hope that in the end there won't be too many variables, and just assisting the Joker and killing this Friar Togo will be a happy ending.
However, it shouldn't be that easy."
To be honest, Han Dong had never completely trusted [Joker-Penny Weiss].
Even if the relationship changed to 'neutral', Han Dong still hadn't slacked off in the slightest.
After all, the Joker was an extremely special boss who had long since learned secrets about Destiny Event through the other squads that had entered the area.
The 'Joker's Conspiracy Theory' was however deduced by Han Dong, so he naturally wouldn't forget it.
This cooperation with the Joker was only based on the level of 'common enemy', Once the common enemy did not exist, the relationship between them naturally would not exist.
The reason why Han Dong had chosen the head upgrade at the 'critical moment' was that there was another layer of purpose other than the shelter plan.
To keep a hand.
If all of them followed the Joker to confront Friar Togo, there was a vague feeling of being led by the Joker if the 'conspiracy theory' was applied to it.
If the main mission could be changed once, it might be changed a second time.
Click-click-click~ (Clockwork device unfolds into a projector)
"Start checking the clues."
Han Dong first uploaded this ancient book of Derry Town to the [Auxiliary Clue Collector].
When the large branching icon on the projection screen was lit up.
At the same time, there were two other small and one medium clue held tightly in Han Dong's hand, from the branching plot that Cass and the others had obtained by completing the branching plot in Derry Town while Han Dong was stalling the Joker in the sewers.
The different clues made up the 'correlation line' connection, which made the Joker intelligence go up by a full 50%.
Han Dong combined the results of the system's deduction and then read it carefully.
While flipping through this Derry Town ancient book, some information about the 'Joker' made Han Dong sweat coldly.
The 'Joker Conspiracy Theory' was slowly being justified while reading this book.
In addition, the issue of the Joker 'becoming stronger' was also mentioned in the old book.
"The Joker's becoming stronger is not a continuous phenomenon, but rather a sudden increase in rank every once in a while!"
It was accurately recorded in the books that every time an outside team arrived in [Derry Town], the Joker would be enhanced.
"The Destiny Event can essentially be understood as an asymmetrical game between the 'hunters' and the 'prey'.
On a monolithic level, the far stronger Joker belongs to the 'hunter's side' and we belong to the 'prey's side'.
We all belong to the participants of the Destiny Event.
The victory of either side will be rewarded by the system.
If our 'prey side' wins, we will receive fate points, cards, and even some physical rewards.
And if the 'hunter side' wins, they should also be able to receive corresponding rewards.
The reason why the Joker was able to keep getting stronger was precisely because it had won as a 'hunter' in one Destiny Event after another, according to the books, it had exterminated a whole four squads.
That's why he who feared [Old Derry Town] in the beginning, first but dared to slowly penetrate into the middle zone, even attempting to completely unify Old Derry Town."
Half an hour passed.
The information recorded in the book was finished being read carefully by Han Dong, along with the conclusion deduced from the auxiliary device.
[Joker Conspiracy]
The Joker's true plot had finally been deduced for the most part.
Such a result left Han Dong in deep contemplation and locking his eyebrows.
"Is this what it really means, the difficulty of a four-star [Fate Space]?
Fortunately, I stayed ahead of time and stayed down here to upgrade the head.
If not, even if I had been thoughtful about the various branching and 'little' things, I would still have been led by the Joker on the 'big' things, and the end result would have been unalterable.
Complete failure and our squad become Joker's experience!
All four of the former trainee knight squads were all destroyed in the town of Derry, and it wasn't that they were weak, it was just because this Joker was so hard to deal with.
It's not too late.
I have the head of this near-cheat level, and I barely have a chance to turn the tables."
Knock knock!
Suddenly, the basement door knocked.
There was a greeting from [Parasitic Subject-Bella], "Aaron, can I come in?"
For some reason, Bella's voice always sounded weird.
