Unknown Warning

Han Dong's eyes were unusually firm when he made this decision.

Captain Abel communicated with the quest giver through a special ' Eagle Language ':

"Aunt Bardot, this Vice Captain was personally appointed by my grandfather... He is a student of the Crow Prophet."

We hope Auntie can let us take on this ' Stone Well ' mission, and also help reserve two other simpler basic missions for us.

Its unique Eagle Language, coupled with the title of ' Crow Prophet '.

The woman was moved.

Three-star missions are among the most difficult of the basic missions in the "camp" series.

It's indeed inappropriate to leave it to a team of Newcomer.

but...

"The Crow Prophet?! This sage has really taken on students? (Eagle Language)"

Bardot stared in astonishment at the young man dressed in Crow Attire in the group.

"Sergeant Kenny is protecting you in secret, isn't he?" Bardot again to confirm.

"Um."

"Abel, you must be careful. There were some minor problems when our Knight Order dealt with this well before! Before you go down, please make sure you do thorough preparations and determine the dangers below by using external means as much as possible before exploring further."

Don't rush... I'll reserve the other two tasks for you.

"Thank you, Aunt Bardot."

And so, Han Dong and the others, carrying the mission scroll "Hair in the Well Water," headed to their destination.

The so-called sealed Stone Well is located Great Body at the border between the wheat field and the town.

The open space formed by three buildings located at the intersection of the town.

Due to the strange problems with Stone Well.

The alley between the three buildings was also blocked, and the wooden roadblocks needed to be cleared before passage was possible.

"This is Stone Well?"

It's not much different from what I remember about Stone Well.

A circular wellhead made of piled stones

Wooden lifting water pump device

However, the wellhead is currently sealed tightly with a large number of wooden planks of varying sizes, secured with nails.

The large number of wooden planks used, and the fact that the bottom and top planks were of different ages, clearly indicated that the well had been sealed multiple times.

The strangest thing is...

By observing carefully in the bright firelight, Han Dong could see some black hairs mixed in between the cracks in the wooden planks.

The group of people, each carrying a kerosene lamp, gazed at a sealed Stone Well well in the night.

As time went by, an eerie feeling gradually spread through the air.

The Wenli the Blacksmith, was very timid. She was so frightened that she squeezed into the crowd, deliberately staying between the captain and Vice Captain to seek the greatest sense of security.

However, just as Wen Li leaned towards Han Dong, she vaguely sensed that the Vice Captain was acting strangely... Under the Beak Mask, Han Dong's eyes seemed somewhat 'confused'.

Viewpoint switch.

Han Dong himself.

While intently observing the Stone Well, he noticed the strange black hairs peeking through the gaps in the wooden planks.

A soft cracking sound came from the wood.

The wooden blocks blocking Stone Well well developed numerous cracks from the bottom, splitting open layer by layer at an extremely rapid pace.

Click!

Until all the wooden blocks broke and the Stone Well well reconnected with the Outside World, it seemed as if something was about to crawl out of the well.

What could it be?

Black hair? A drowning woman? A ghost in a well? Or some terrifying aquatic life?

Neither...

What floated out of the well was... Red Balloon.

Balloons with smiley faces drawn on them slowly floated up.

As the balloons appeared, they led out a familiar face: a man in White Gloves, red hair, and a clown costume.

"Ha ha ha! Mr. Nicolas!"

It's a bit dangerous down there... Don't die before you reach Old Derry Town! Otherwise, I'll lose one of my fun toys.

Be careful, call your teammates and go down with you.

"Vice-captain... Vice Captain! Are you alright?!"

Buzz!

A thought flashed through my mind.

The strange image in Han Dong's eyes disappeared, Stone Well well in the center of the open space remained sealed, with no signs of damage to the wooden planks.

However, Han Dong was not feeling well.

He bent over slightly and reached out to press down on the Beak Mask.

"My old ailment has flared up again, and I need to rest for a while... You guys stay here and check out the situation around Stone Well first. I'll be fine if I'm alone for a bit."

"Nicholas, are you sure you're alright?" Abel asked.

"Hmm... it's a minor issue, please wait a moment."

With one hand holding the mask and the other supporting himself against the wall, Han Dong temporarily left the Stone Well area through the alleyway.

Mia tried to follow him secretly, but Han Dong suddenly turned around and gave her a terrifying look, which scared her back.

Han Dong found a quiet, deserted area.

Whoosh!

Portable Prison

The ability to drive the head outside the city seemed even easier, with no hindrance in the process of spatial storage and teleportation.

Han Dong rushed back to the Sterile Laboratory to check the "Clown Arm" placed on the testing table.

The series of 'illusions' just now were incredibly realistic, and Han Dong's first suspicion was about this arm.

However... the arm, which was firmly fixed to the testing station, never showed any sign of movement and remained strapped on.

After testing, it was found that the arm had no independent movement and could not possibly affect Han Dong.

"Pennywise is indeed a tough guy to deal with, but not to the point of giving me Psychological Shadow."

Ask Togu; the two of them are sworn enemies, so he should know something.

This matter must be thoroughly investigated. If a similar situation occurs again during this Joints period, I will be in danger.

Prison Area.

Second cell.

Togu Gonzalez sat against the wall, holding a Bible in his hands.

And so I read it back and forth, over and over again.

Han Dong briefly explained his experience to Togu.

A demonic language, understood only through Master-Servant Relationship, emanated from Togu's mouth:

"Pennywise ... he's the most manipulative guy in the circus."

Its greatest strength lies not in magic tricks or various bizarre combat abilities, but in its ability to see through the weaknesses of human nature and the Mental Plane, and to eliminate them from the depths of the heart.

I sometimes experience similar effects.

So when the exit opened a crack, I rushed there immediately, sparing no effort to reach his hiding place and kill him completely.

"Are you also affected by this? Are there any ways to mitigate it?"

"The best way is to kill this clown, so that all the influence he 'placed' in your mind will dissipate... However, we have neither the means nor the ability to go to the [inside] right now."

"Hmm, is there any special way to temporarily resist this effect?"

"There is no other way but to kill the clown."

However, based on your description, the impact will not be significant.

Furthermore, please heed the Joker's warning. It seems to me that Pennywise still wants you back for a final Victory or Defeat... he doesn't want you left to rot in the wilderness.

"Can't you remind me from within?"

"Just now... Miss Chen Li and I were completely unaware of your unusual behavior."

"Is that so? Pennywise... you're something else."

After realizing it was a clown's trick, Han Dong returned to the small town.

They rejoined the team that was exploring near Stone Well.
