Ten Demons
"Nicholas... when exactly did we get infected?"
Although they had been rescued, the terrifying incident at the motel still haunted the two teammates' minds... Cas was in slightly better condition.
Everyone's experience in a motel is different.
Diana's experience seems even more terrifying, as she fell into more and deeper traps, to the point that even after being awakened, she still suffered from certain degree of cognitive side effects.
"They use endless asphalt roads to numb our nerves and lower our mental defenses, and then use the three words ' Derry Town ' on the billboard to finally pull our consciousness in, creating a loophole in our consciousness."
They sank deeper and deeper into the quagmire.
The greater the flaws in one's inner self, the deeper one will sink into the mire of illusion.
Han Dong could see that although Diana was extremely powerful in Combat Power, she had many flaws in her heart... It was already quite remarkable that she was able to survive and be received in the Holy City.
No one knows what kind of despair Diana experienced as a child, traveling with her father across mountains and rivers from the Nine Provinces to the Holy City of Europe.
Diana gently smoothed her disheveled hair with her fingers, trying her best to conceal her fear, and muttered softly:
"I'm not very good at dealing with these Mental Type monsters... Will we encounter them again?"
"It's very likely that the female corpse has already set her sights on me... If she does, I'll try to handle it alone, and you can go do other things. Unfortunately, I'm quite good at dealing with mental beings."
Both Han Dong's brain and his maniacal laughter ability are highly immune to mental interference.
When influenced by the superior methods this time, the brain still creates a 'self' in the illusion to give Han Dong hints, and the maniacal laughter can shake or even affect the other party's illusion to a certain extent.
"...I will try my best." Diana bit her lip.
"Let's all take a nap in the car and take turns resting... Once we've recovered from our Mental State, we can slowly consider entering the city."
Cas and Diana went to sleep in the car first.
Han Dong, due to his unique brain structure and early awakening, was not particularly tired... He leaned against the front of the car, pondering some fundamental questions.
Han Dong was holding the rusty key in his hand.
If you look closely, you can find several rough lettering engraved on the side of the key – "VOID".
As the firelight of hell appeared.
Togu, dressed in a sleeveless black leather jacket and with Saw Blade embedded in his head, slowly appeared.
"Togu, you said before that Jane Doyle is the [Prosecutor and Forensic Doctor] in Derry Town... is that right?"
"Yes, that's exactly what was recorded in my awakened memories." Togu nodded slightly.
Han Dong continued, "Is the [Derry Town Central Hospital] we need to go to also directly related to the female corpse?"
Togu reached out and tugged at the Saw Blade embedded in his head, trying to awaken more memories... The sealed memories would only be partially unlocked by contact with the corresponding Hidden Resident or specific scenes.
However, in Togu's memory, there seem to be some memories of female corpses and hospitals.
The pain from the Saw Blade slowly brought back memories of the hospital for Togu.
"The hospital did have some connection to the woman's body, but it wasn't a 'direct connection.'"
Could you elaborate?
"The female corpse. Jane's Second Identity a forensic doctor seems to only involve the handling of some corpses in the hospital morgue."
The hospital's actual administrators are someone else, who is also a very troublesome individual.
He is one of the "Ten Demons".
The term "Ten Demons" is an important term that Togu remembered after clearing his mind with the "Saw Blade," specifically referring to individuals ranked in the top ten of Derry Town.
Sam, the Neighborhood Committee Director who gives Han Dong and his group the Main Plot, is one of the Ten Demons, and is known to be ranked seventh.
Jane Doyle, the female corpse who creates deep illusions, also belongs to the Ten Evils, though her ranking is unknown.
The Derry Town Central Hospital, which the group needs to go to, also houses the same ten demons.
In the hidden storyline, all of the "Ten Demons" are extremely deadly beings... Fighting against such beings can easily lead to total annihilation if one is not careful, as can be seen from the incident at the motel.
"So, the Central Hospital corresponding to the Main Plot might have two [Ten Demons] at the same time? No wonder the Scarecrow Kid was unwilling to go to the hospital himself; it turns out there was such a risk involved."
The difficulty of True Destiny is simply too high...
Han Dong looked somewhat helpless.
"Master, I will do my best to assist you... Also, I suggest you continue to use the Miles piece as much as possible."
"Well... I've already canceled his Spring Festival holiday, and he'll be back at work on time these days."
The Ultimate Human Demon - Miles storyline has been handled very well and is now officially in use.
Miles is not very useful without his head; his strength should be barely enough to go toe-to-toe with the Ten Demons.
Turning his head to look at Cas and Diana, who were fast asleep in the car, Han Dong Dong's main plan was slowly taking shape.
Night fell.
"Moonlight-Miles" also arrived at the same time.
However, this terrifying Ultimate Human Demon simply stood in the moonlight, his dark eyes beneath the mask fixed on the three sleeping people in the car, showing no intention of making a move...
This scene looks more like a vigil for the three of them.
The reason is simple.
In Miles's principle, the game between hunter and prey must never allow the intervention of a ' The Third '.
Jane, the female corpse who is seriously affecting the hunter game, must be executed for the game to continue...
The next morning.
Han Dong waved goodbye to his bodyguard.
Fully recovered, the group officially drove to ' Derry Town ' as indicated on the map... no longer encountering the situation of circling back to the original route.
After driving along the asphalt road for a full two hours, a Empty City slowly came into view.
There was no "hundred schools of thought contending" or "chaotic frenzy" as one might have imagined.
The Derry Town ' that was about to be entered was covered by a layer of white mist, giving people a sense of quiet and peace... At the same time, staring at the buildings on the street, Han Dong felt very familiar with them, as the architectural layout was basically the same as that in the main story.
Seeing the deserted Empty City, Han Dong muttered, "My guess was right... This is just the [Derry Town] marked on the map, not the real [Inside Derry Town]. I don't know how to explain it."
In short, we should only be able to see the true full picture of Inside Derry Town when we obtain our residency permits.
As the vehicle officially entered the town, a notification sound came on:
"You have entered the important area - [Derry Town]. Due to the influence of Special Substance in this area, individual attribute indicators will be presented in the form of ' Character Card '. Please check your Character Card as soon as possible."
