Factory

Nicole had a hard time identifying the strange taste.

It has a strange smell, like a mixture of blood, flesh, and some kind of industrial rubber raw material.

Is this the taste?

A shiny white leather mask was in Han Dong's hand. It was the same mask Han Dong had used to track down the campus killer, and it had some connection with Miles.

"Mmm... that's the taste."

However, the smell emanating from inside the building was much stronger.

Han Dong smelled the odor as he approached the building. It wasn't that he had a keen sense of smell like Abel; rather, it was the building itself that had a strong odor.

Based on the demon's collection of "human-like" objects and the police's discovery of a dismembered corpse in the old training facility, Han Dong could roughly guess some of the issues.

"Nicole, let's go."

Sensing a slight danger, the little octopus girl Transform Into her pinky into a long, thin octopus tendril, gently hooking Han Dong's hand and leading him into the Old Teaching Building through the main entrance.

The warning line was damaged, and the iron lock on the gate was sanded.

Creak~

As I stepped into the Old Teaching Building, a smell ten times stronger than usual immediately filled my Nasal Cavity.

You have entered the special area - [Miles' Mask Factory], and the side quest - "Demon Manufacturing" has been triggered.

"Demon Manufacturing"

Number of participants in the storyline: [1]

Requirements: Thoroughly expose the manufacturing process of the human demon, kill the factory supervisor, and destroy the factory.

award:

①. This side quest is Derivative Plot of [Hidden Resident - Michael Miles]. Completing it will reward you with "Demon Diary".

②. There is a certain probability of obtaining material items.

Note: Be careful... If you make a lot of noise, it may attract Miles.

Han Dong's face lit up with joy.

"Finally, the long-awaited side quest... I didn't think ' True Destiny ' would provide this kind of indicative hint."

This directly related side storyline will inevitably reveal Miles's secrets more deeply, and will be more conducive to the execution of the [Security Plan].

"Nicole... turn back to human form."

"Oh!"

The tentacles on its lower body immediately retracted, Transform Into into long, white legs tinged with pink, with even some water droplets remaining on its tender skin.

With her stunningly long legs, Nicole's angelic beauty, and her student-like attire, she resembles the female lead in a big-budget splatter movie—the most beautiful woman in the film.

A burly, psychopathic monster paired with a stunningly beautiful female lead, plus tons of ketchup, and a popcorn B-movie is born.

"Next, we'll split up..."

"Split up? Is that how it is?"

As Nicole spoke, she easily removed her head from her neck.

It grows a bunch of octopus tentacles from the bottom of its head, making it able to crawl freely.

The image of a perfect fairy shattered in an instant.

"No... I mean, acting alone."

Your main task is to attract the attention of the other entities in the building, making them all chase after you, similar to a scene in a B-movie.

"B-movie?"

"I'll show you later when I have the chance. In short, your mission is this: to attract attention and help you escape... Once I discover the secrets of the factory, I'll come to your aid immediately."

"Oh... okay!"

Feeling like she had something to do, Nicole nodded slightly and immediately jogged towards the other end of the passage.

Two slightly fleshy, long legs trembled slightly as they ran.

After all, Nicole's body is mostly water, so even if she were to transform into a human, her skin would be more supple and hydrated than a human's.

However, the scene of their separate actions was still fresh in Han Dong's mind, and it seemed even more exciting than the current situation.

Why act alone?

The problem lies in the hints provided in the side quests.

In the current Old Teaching Building, all the windows are boarded up, so no moonlight shines in, and Miles usually doesn't come here.

If Han Dong kills the factory supervisor required by the plot ahead of time, it is highly likely that the demon will descend.

It is essential to understand the so-called "true nature of the factory" beforehand and uncover its secrets.

To achieve perfect concealment, Han Dong put on the white mask again.

Combined with the disguise ability of the Faceless Head, it makes its aura similar to that of the factory.

"Perception is limited by about 80% in a specific area, so I have to search more slowly."

Walking in the corridor on the first floor.

A classroom with an unusual atmosphere and locked from the inside caught Han Dong's attention.

Even the corridor windows were sealed tightly with newspapers and wooden boards, but fortunately Han Dong had the ability to see through things.

Get close to the window, and use your magic eye to see through things.

A rather unsettling scene came into view.

A large number of missing persons are being hung here, including not only teachers and students from the school, but also residents living near the Bates Academy, and even a middle-aged man dressed as a police officer.

They were all the lowest-ranking "humans" in the factory.

A factory worker responsible for collecting materials was working here, repeatedly muttering a sentence:

Ten-the-one! Hundred-the-one! Thousand-the-one!

The employee's back was severely bent and his body was hunched over due to the repetitive nature of his work, and his skin was aged and wrinkled.

On the worker's face, a white leather mask was forcibly fixed to his face using tiny hooks.

The same Moonlight Imprint was etched on her neck.

These 'technical' workers have sharp blades embedded between their fingers so they can harvest quickly without any tools.

There are many such collection workshops, which are the preliminary stage of the Demon Manufacturing.

During Han Dong's spying.

Without making a sound, a factory worker walked down the corridor and quickly approached.

As Han Dong turned his head, a woman dressed as a female teacher (high heels, black stockings, pencil skirt, white shirt and suit) was already standing beside him.

The face is also secured with a white leather mask that exudes a magical glow through flesh hooks.

Unlike the workers in the classroom, these Leather Mask fit the face perfectly.

As the female teacher spoke, the mouth area corresponding to the mask moved slightly, and a clear, elegant voice emanated from within.

"The ' Ten-Person Mask ' haven't yet been branded with the Moonlight Imprint... New workers? Follow me."

Han Dong remained silent, nodded, and followed behind the 'person in charge'... It would be better to have someone lead the tour. According to Han Dong's observation, the person in charge was going to take him to make markings.

"I was put on a mask outside... Excuse me, where is this place?"

It seems that Miles himself came to the school.

The woman in charge, dressed as a teacher, was in a good mood and patiently answered Han Dong's questions.

"The Human Demon Factory".

Lord Miles has granted us the power of immortality.

Here we will create better, higher quality, and more perfect "human demon masks" for Lord Miles, and at the same time we will develop some "superior" humans into low-level human demons to serve Lord Miles.

Judging from the mask you're wearing, your characteristics must have caught the eye of a [Hundred-Demon], thus granting you the opportunity to become a [Ten-Demon].
