Chapter 670: Exclusive Plot
『Exclusive Story (Mayor Mare】[Investigation of the Monastery] has been triggered』
Note: The exclusive story is under special conditions (personnel, time, and hidden conditions must be met) and is given by an important NPC.
The exclusive story is different from the side story.
The plot will touch on the essence of "true fate" and provide key clues.
Brief description: Recently, the monastery often applies to the town hall for ** resources, and there are often 'strange howls' at night.
A week earlier, the investigation team of the town hall had gone to the monastery for a week, and there were no casualties, but no irregularities were found.
The anomaly index also remained within the normal stable range.
Requirements: Hold the Nadri Town Master Pass, enter the monastery and stay for more than three days, write down the details of what you have seen and heard in the three days, and bring it back to the mayor.
Reward: A job (the quality of the work is related to the content of the notes brought back)
……
"This three-day master pass allows you to enter any private place in the town of Dre and will enjoy the protection of the law without any conditions.
However, if someone from the monastery asks you about the origin of your pass, don't mention the town hall or me, as this will make them wary and not easily exposed. ”
"Understood."
"Remember, when you dig deeper, you'll naturally find what you're looking for...... Whether or not Togu has left Dree Town, he will always be my townman. ”
"Thank you, Mayor."
"By the way, it's best to bring your teammates...... Otherwise, you may not be able to hide Togu alone, and the people in the monastery may go crazy by perceiving Togu's presence. ”
When Han Dong exited the office, he went straight back to the entrance of the lightless passage.
Recalling the outline of the mayor, Han Dong always felt that he had seen it somewhere.
"Strange...... To be reasonable, I probably haven't seen it. Even if the mayor of the town was promoted from the small world, it was decades or even hundreds of years ago.
I'd never have seen him in Destiny Space.
What's going on with this sense of familiarity...... Forget it, it's a monastery affair for now.
Since the mayor has asked me to investigate this matter, it must be that the mayor is aware of it but has no definite evidence.
The system also gives hints for the exclusive plot, and it is almost certain that this monastery has a big problem, and it may even be related to the clown. ”
Just as Han Dong walked through the lobby of the town hall.
An arm suddenly stopped it.
Lalala~?
Accompanied by the singing, countless broken arms suddenly fell from the ceiling and piled up in front of Han Dong.
Finally, an extremely terrifying woman's head was drilled out of the pile of arms...... Obviously born with the same facial features as humans, it always looks like something is not right.
If the [Uncanny Valley Effect] is used to evaluate the clerk, she cannot be counted as a human, but a strange existence that approximates about 90% of humans.
A slightly larger mouth, large eyes that are slightly split to the sides, and a small nose...... Together, it feels creepy.
"What's the matter with the mayor looking for you?"
Because Han Dong was unscathed after meeting the mayor, the clerk seemed to be a little dissatisfied...... There is even a bit of 'vinegar'.
"About the monastery."
When talking about the three words of the monastery, the clerk suddenly stretched out seven slender arms to cover his mouth, let out an unusually shrill laugh, and at the same time made way for Han Dong.
"Oh...... Hahaha~ Go ahead! Go for it! The nuns in the convent will take care of you. ”
With Han Dong leaving, the clerk sang a cheerful little song the whole time.
"This woman...... Seems to want me dead. ”
After breaking away from the town hall.
Han Dong listened to the mayor's opinion, called back his teammates who had just arranged to go to the neighborhood committee to investigate, and went to the monastery together.
There is a little conclusion to be drawn from the mayor's words.
Once Togu's existence is exposed to the monastery, it will be a massacre that defies the town's laws.
Just as Han Dong explained the details of the exclusive plot to his teammates, Diana suddenly gave a message.
"Abbey? I seem to have seen about the monastery in the material on the Calamity...... The monastery seems to have had a major catastrophe called the 'Devil Locust' a few years ago. ”
"Huh? Tell me more about it. ”
Diana only skimmed through the information quickly, and couldn't remember much.
At present, he immediately rushed back to the neighborhood committee as soon as possible and brought a copy of the materials to Han Dong...... It's not so much a document as a newspaper of the year.
In the relevant registration content, some keywords (mostly personal names) were deliberately crossed out.
"The monastery was mismanaged, causing demonic locusts to run wild, resulting in the death of a large number of lower-ranking nuns.
Nun ■■■ This gave birth to a rare pure-blooded demon, and due to her severe antisocial personality, eight townspeople died.
Eventually, the clerk stepped in and sent the purebred demon back to hell.
After the incident, the monastery was purged and rebuilt by all the [Ten Demons], and the monastery resumed normal operation half a year later."
"Devil Locust ......"
After getting the information, he immediately walked to the monastery with his two teammates, after all, the investigation time given by the mayor was only [three days], and if he couldn't find any information, such an exclusive task would be wasted.
What's more, Togu will not be able to recover.
The closer you get to the edge of the town, the more sparse the houses become.
There is a street sign next to the exit of the town, which is clearly marked - [Monastery, 300m ahead]
At that moment, there was a loud noise from the garbage bins on the side of the road.
A homeless man with a wine bottle in his hand and a foul-smelling linen covered in his whole body rummaged out of the box, blocking the path of Han Dong and his party...... As the homeless man walks, a large number of rat women fall to the ground.
"Are you going to the convent? Squeak squeak~~"
The homeless man's voice fluctuates high and low.
"Yes."
"Be careful...... It's a lot of trouble, and if you die, I'll collect your body. ”
"Thank you."
After that, the person's body was directly dismantled into thousands of rat women and returned to the garbage dump...... If you look closely, you will find a circle-shaped "rat woman mark" on the back end of the garbage can.
"Nicholas...... That homeless guy just now? Cass asked quietly.
"Well, I'm afraid it's the security guards arranged by the mayor or clerk at the exit of the town to keep an eye on the special inhabitants of the monastery...... The breath is not weak at all. ”
As the three of them left the main city of Derui Town, they walked three hundred meters on the outskirts.
The road ahead was directly blocked, turning into a bottomless abyss (similar to the scene in the movie "Silent Hill").
Most of the monasteries with pointed arches and ribbed vaults are mainly built on the cliff edges...... Almost 1/3 of the area is over the cliff.
