“Upgraded Faceless Skull completed! Current Level LV.2”

Wow!

Han Dong woke up in the basement, the tentacles had retracted into his neck, and his appearance had changed to ‘Valen. Nicholas’.

A strong sense of nausea surged in his heart.

Vomiting!

What he vomited was not ordinary gastric juice.

But some filthy and turbid fluid, accompanied by fish bones, octopus tentacles, and shells!

“This! I…”

Memories of living a lifetime as a fisherman in [Innsmouth].

Unlike dreams that are illusory, they are branded deep in Han Dong’s brain, just like reality.

In the end, Han Dong, who drove to the sea, seemed to hear an unnamed call, forgoing the fishing boat and embracing the sea.

“Innsmouth … these memories, they’re hard to block out!”

Unlike the 14 years of Derry Town life memories implanted when he entered Derry Town.

This memory is Han Dong’s own experience, containing ’emotions’ in it.

Staring at the vomit in front of him, Han Dong10 even had a hard time distinguishing the real from the fake memories for a while.

The identity of the ‘Fisherman’,

The physical changes towards fishman,

That call from the depths of the sea,

They were all like a brand in Han Dong’s mind, unable to be dismissed.

Noticing Han Dong’s exception, Chen Li approached him in the first place and helped him with her hand.

“Chen… Miss Chen Li! How long has it been?”

“Three hours and twenty-seven minutes… There has been no movement in the Clown’s House for the moment, they should have stalled the [Purgatory Monk] for a while.”

Time was normal, the situation was normal.

But Han Dong had no joy from the successful skull upgrade on his face… his face was gloomy, his thoughts agitated.

“Let me rest a bit, I’m feeling unwell.”

Skull upgrade, energy restored, tentacles and Little Demon Eye’s abilities are all improved.

But… Han Dong felt uncomfortable mentally.

The intense smell of sea fish and the strong sense of dampness, coupled with the personal experience of the body becoming a ‘fishman’, this made Han Dong strongly uncomfortable on a psychological level.

Han Dong continued to rest.

He closed his eyes to rest his mind.

He was considering the meanings behind this ‘fisherman’s life’.

“Could it be that [Innsmouth Town] is related to my head? Is it a memory that the owner of this head sealed before? Or is it one of the memories…

After leaving Fate Space, I must check through channels whether there is [Innsmouth] in the original world.”

(Ten minutes rest time)

Trying to block this fisherman memory as much as possible.

Coming to terms.

Han Dong didn’t rush to participate in the battle with the monks.

Instead, he took out an old book from his pocket.

It was the major clue that was brought out to address the [Twisted Sewer] event: ‘The Horror History of Derry Town’.

The three words ‘Derry Town’ were printed on the cover of the book. 𝒻𝑟𝑒𝓮𝔀ℯ𝓫𝓃𝑜𝓋𝑒𝘭.𝑐𝓸𝓶

This book had extremely high value for this Fate Event.

Even if there are many side missions inside [The Return of the Clown (Surface Chapter)], this is the only major side mission on the Auxiliary Clue Collector.

Such a clue will significantly reveal the secrets of ‘New Derry Town’ as well as the origin of the clown.

The contents of this book will elaborate on the origins of New Derry Town, that is, the clown came from [Other] to [Surface], affecting New Derry Town…

“I hope this major clue can help me understand some things,

So I can thoroughly understand Pennywise!

Sigh … I hope there won’t be too much variability in the end, and if we can finish it off perfectly by helping the clown kill this Monk Togu.”

“But, it shouldn’t be that easy.”

To be honest, Han Dong has never thoroughly trusted [Clown-Pennywise].

Even when their relationship changed to ‘neutral’, Han Dong didn’t let his guard down.

After all, the clown is an extremely special BOSS. He has already learned about the secrets of fate through other teams that entered here.

The ‘Clown’s Conspiracy Theory’ is something that Han Dong deduced, and naturally, he would not forget about it.

This cooperation with the clown is solely based on the basis of a ‘common enemy’. Once the common enemy is gone, their relationship naturally ceases to exist.

The reason why Han Dong chose to upgrade the skull at a ‘crucial moment’, apart from the containment plan, is that he had another purpose.

He kept a trick up his sleeve.

If everyone followed the clown to confront Monk Togu, if they applied the ‘conspiracy theory’ to it, it would feel like being led by the nose by the clown.

If the main task could be changed once, perhaps it could be changed a second time.

Click-click~ (The clockwork device unfolds into a projector)

“Start viewing the clues.”

Han Dong first uploaded this old book of Derry Town to the [Auxiliary Clue Collector].

When the large side quest icon on the projection screen was lit.

At the same time, Han Dong was also holding two more clues, one small and one medium… which were obtained by Cass and others in Derry Town completing the side quest while Han Dong was stalling the clown in the sewer.

The ‘connected lines’ formed by different clues led to a 50% increase in clown intelligence.

Han Dong combined the system’s inferred results with a careful reading.

While flipping through this old book of Derry Town, some information about the ‘clown’ made Han Dong break out in a cold sweat.

The ‘Clown Conspiracy Theory’ was slowly proven while reading this book.

In addition, the old book also mentioned the problem of the clown getting ‘stronger’.

“The clown’s growth is not a continuous phenomenon, but a sudden increase in level every once in a while!”

The book accurately recorded that every time a foreign team arrived in [Derry Town], the clown would get stronger.

“A Fate event can essentially be understood as an asymmetric game between the ‘hunter’ and the ‘prey’.

On a single-unit level, the clown, who is much stronger than us, belongs to the ‘hunter’ side, and we belong to the ‘prey’ side.

We are all participants in the Fate event.

Whichever side wins will receive a system reward.

If we ‘prey’ win, we can get Fate Points, cards, and even some physical rewards.

And if the ‘hunter’ side wins, they should also receive corresponding rewards.

The reason why the clown can keep getting stronger is because he won the victory as a ‘hunter’ in one Fate event after another… According to the book, he has killed four teams in total.

This is why he, who was initially afraid of [Other-Old Derry Town], dared to slowly venture into the middle area, and even attempted to completely dominate Old Derry Town.”

Half an hour passed.

The information recorded in the book was carefully read by Han Dong, and the conclusion was drawn from the auxiliary device.

[Clown’s Conspiracy]

Most of the clown’s real conspiracy was finally inferred.

Such a result made Han Dong fall into deep thought, his eyebrows furrowed.

“Is this the true difficulty of a four-star [Fate Space]?

Luckily, I kept a trick up my sleeve and stayed here to upgrade the skull.

Otherwise, even if I considered everything thoroughly in various side quests and ‘small matters’, I would still be led by the nose by the clown in ‘major matters’, and the end result would be unchangeable.

Complete failure and our team becoming the clown’s experience points!

The reason why the previous four Apprentice Knight Squads were completely wiped out in Derry Town was not because they were not strong enough…but just because this clown was too difficult to deal with.

It’s not too late now.

I still have a chance to turn the tables.”

Thump thump thump!

Suddenly, there was a knock on the basement door.

The greeting voice of [Parasitic Host – Bella] came: “Can I come in?”

For some reason, Bella’s voice always seemed a bit weird….
