Chapter 636: Chapter 636: Suppressing the Hall
Dragon City Team.
Not only Han Dong was rewarded by the female corpse, Jane.
The ones who left first, Huo Ziping and others, also unexpectedly received hidden gains from the incident at the motel.
Han Dong and Huo Ziping both independently broke the illusion.
Although Han Dong was the first to get rid of it, he did so with the help of the other residents to some extent…
Huo Ziping, however, entirely depended on his understanding of his teammates and his keen observation in the illusion… In the third stage of the illusion, he noticed something abnormal.
Finally, he used a heart method that can clear the mind and reduce desires to recognize himself.
After confirming his location in the illusion world, he slashed through layer upon layer of illusion with the simple method of ‘sword slash’.
From this point alone, Huo Ziping is a pure illusion passersby.
The motel created by Jane Dole, is essentially an evaluation of the qualifications for entering the city.
Apart from the pass, outstanding performers will also receive additional rewards, which can guide them to special areas in Derry Town, whether it is good or bad, it is not yet known.
With the help of external forces, Han Dong, who was the first to clear, got a key marked “V.O.I.D” (Void).
The reward for Huo Ziping, who cleared using his own individual strength, was a “recommendation letter for the Assistant Clerk at Derry Town Hall”.
This letter is extremely important, with this recommendation letter, it seems possible to directly contact the highest authorities in Derry Town, either the mayor or the clerk.
When Huo Ziping read this letter, the system even gave out an explicit main storyline.
“Resident’s Task (Main Line Story No. 1): Qualified civil servant”
Trigger condition: Recommendation letter for the position at Derry Town Hall.
Requirement (step one): Hold the recommendation letter and report to the town hall to acquire the corresponding position.
Note: The recommendation letter can be used for the whole team.”
Time limit: 12 hours
Reward: When all requirements of the “No. 1” mainline story are completed, each team member will obtain the “permanent residency permit of Derry Town (collective household, town hall certified)”.
Since the time limit is only 12 hours, after taking turns resting for a while, the four of them immediately drove towards the interior of Derry Town… This is an opportunity to activate the main mission, and it cannot be wasted.
As he crossed the streets enveloped by layer upon layer of dense mist, Huo Ziping noticed something strange.
The deserted streets, many vacant houses, and not too much “Interference” sensing.
“This does not seem to be the real ‘Inside Derry Town’, it seems we need to get a permanent residence permit before it really begins… Let’s take it one step at a time, Pennywise has not shown up so far.”
Derry Town Hall.
Through roundabout structures and completely enclosed gray walls, the town hall is thoroughly separated from other areas of the town.
Circles the island.
When going along the tall cold gray stone wall, faint, unique, beautiful songs can be heard coming from the town hall within the walls.
“She really does like to sing…”
A guard in a black suit wearing a ‘rabbit mask’ properly stood at the main door in the middle of the wall, seemingly intoxicated by the beautiful song, he hasn’t noticed Huo Ziping and others approaching.
It has to be said, this is an excellent opportunity for a surprise attack.
However, the goal of Huo Ziping and others is to go to the town hall for a corresponding job, showing the recommendation letter to the guard.
“To be able to receive a recommendation letter personally written by the prosecutor… Please follow me.
Because of some ‘unexpected events’ recently, the secretary does need an assistant, but she shouldn’t need as many as four.
Some of you may be relegated to other jobs.”
As the guard with the bunny mask slowly opened the iron door to the town hall, Yu Wu’s expression was incredibly awful.
Because of auditory differences.
What he heard was not just beautiful singing.
It also mixed with all kinds of strange static noises, a kind of terrifying static noise that Yu Wu had never heard before…about akin to the call of the undead in the depths of the Nether River.
“Captain… The things inside might be more terrifying than the female corpse! There are many main lines, do we really choose the ‘first mainline’?”
At this moment, Yu Wu seemed extremely nervous, even wanting to give up the mainline mission, which had been hard to come by.
However.
The eyes of the team leader, Huo Ziping, were extraordinarily firm.
A hand overflowing with golden light suddenly fell on Yu Wu’s shoulder.
Overwhelming and warm true Qi swiftly spread throughout Yu Wu’s body, stabilizing his nervous state of mind.
“Don’t worry… the ‘first mainline’ is exactly what we need.
Our goal is not solely to get the permanent residence permit, but also to find the ‘final hidden treasure’.
If we could establish a relationship with the highest authorities in Derry Town through the recommendation letter, it will greatly benefit our future actions.
I can roughly guess.
The ‘permanent residence permit of Derry Town’ should also have different levels, directly related to resident rights, that greatly impact the execution of our future plans.
Higher privileges mean that we have more channels to find clues about the clown – Pennywise.
That is…”
In between his words.
The team leader, Huo Ziping, suddenly froze, his gaze staring straight at the workplace he was about to go to – Derry Town Hall.
The gray bricks, the pointed roof style of the town hall, something unusual was on the surface.
At first glance, it seemed like the outer wall was completely covered with a mutated white ivy climbing plant, but upon closer inspection… they were arms!
More specifically.
From every window, long pale arms crawled out from inside.
The shortest ones were one meter long, while the longest ones exceeded five meters.
They were clinging to the entire building like ivy.
Moreover, at least one arm was stretched out from every window… this scene was extremely creepy.
If Han Dong was here, he would definitely recognize the source of these arms at first glance..
Countless arms with such soft singing.
The source belonged to the same person.
That is, the woman who had once emerged from a crack in the depths of the sewer in the outer world, suppressed Pennywise in a blink of an eye, forcibly pulling him into the other side of Derry Town… a terrifying existence that caused Han Dong to break out in a cold sweat.
“Secretary Funa, the temporary assistant recommended by Prosecutor Jane has arrived, are you available to receive them?”
The singing abruptly stopped.
A chorus of gentle voices seeped through the wall, invading the ears of the Dragon City Team and the guard from all directions.
“Jane… she actually sent someone over to me, come in.”
Just then.
More than a dozen boneless looking white arms squeezed out from the main door of the town hall like ivy, grabbed the heavy wooden door, and rudely opened the door for everyone…
At this point.
The guard in the rabbit mask lacked the authority to proceed further.
With absolutely no fear in his eyes, team leader Huo Ziping led the team, following the direction the arms retreated deep into the town hall… arriving at a vast office.
Secretary – Funa Rivarde
The moment they saw this person.
A crucial value related to their lives on the ‘character cards’ they wore plummeted.
