Exclusive Story (Mayor): [Investigate the Monastery] Triggered

Note: Exclusive storylines are given by a key NPC under special conditions (requiring the fulfillment of certain personnel, time, and implicit conditions).

The exclusive storyline is different from the side storyline.

The plot will touch upon the essence of "True Destiny," providing crucial clues.

Brief description: Recently, the monastery has been frequently requesting live animal resources from the Town Hall, and strange howling sounds are often heard at night.

Town Hall investigation team conducted a week-long investigation at the monastery a month ago, and found no violations despite the absence of casualties.

The abnormal index also remained within the normal and stable range.

Requirements: Hold Derry Town Universal Pass, enter the monastery and stay for more than three days, write down everything you see and hear in detail in a logbook and bring it back to the mayor.

Reward: A job (the quality of the job is related to the content of the notes brought back).

"This Universal Pass (three days) allows you to enter any private premises within Derry Town and you will enjoy unconditional legal protection."

However, if anyone from the monastery asks about the origin of your pass, never mention the Town Hall or me. This will raise their suspicion and make it harder for you to give yourself away.

"Clear."

"Remember, you will find what you are looking for as you investigate further... Regardless of whether Togu has left Derry Town, he will always be one of my townspeople."

"Thank you, Mayor."

"By the way, it's best to bring your teammates... otherwise you might not be able to hide Togu well by yourself, and the people in the monastery might go crazy if they discover Togu's presence."

When Han Dong left the office, he went straight back to the entrance of the dark passage.

As Han Dong recalled the mayor's silhouette, he felt like he had seen him somewhere before.

"Strange... To be honest, I shouldn't have seen him before. Even if the mayor rose from a minor world, that was decades or even hundreds of years ago."

I could never have met him in the Destiny Space.

What's with this feeling of familiarity... Never mind, the monastery is the priority right now.

Since the mayor entrusted me to investigate this matter, it must be because the mayor had some suspicions but did not have concrete evidence.

The system also provided hints about the specific storyline, basically confirming that this monastery has significant problems, and may even be related to the clown.

Just as Han Dong was walking through the main hall of the Town Hall.

An arm suddenly blocked it.

La la la~

As the song played, countless severed arms suddenly fell from the ceiling and piled up in front of Han Dong.

Finally, a horrifying woman's head emerged from the pile of arms... It had human-like features, but something just didn't look right.

If we use the "uncanny valley effect" to evaluate the clerk, she cannot be considered a human being, but rather a bizarre existence that is about 90% similar to a human.

A slightly large mouth, large eyes that fork slightly to the sides, and a tiny nose... the combination is quite creepy.

"What does the mayor want with you?"

Since Han Dong was unharmed after meeting the town mayor, the clerk seemed somewhat dissatisfied... even a little jealous.

"About the monastery."

When the word "monastery" was mentioned, the clerk suddenly stretched out seven slender arms to cover his mouth, letting out an unusually shrill laugh, while making way for Han Dong.

"Oh... hahaha~ Go quickly! Go quickly! The nuns in the convent will treat you well."

As Han Dong left, the clerk sang cheerful tunes throughout the entire process.

"This woman... seems to really want me dead."

After leaving the Town Hall.

Following the town mayor's advice, Han Dong called back his teammates who had just been assigned to investigate the matter at the neighborhood committee, and together they headed to the monastery.

One can draw some conclusions from the mayor's words.

Once Togu's existence is exposed to the monastery, a massacre that disregards the town's laws will ensue.

Just as Han Dong was explaining the details of the exclusive storyline to his teammates, Diana suddenly gave him some information.

"The monastery? I think I just saw something about the monastery in the information about [disasters]... It seems that the monastery experienced a major disaster called ' Demon Locusts ' a few years ago."

"Hmm? Tell me more."

Diana only skimmed the information and couldn't remember much.

I immediately rushed back to the neighborhood committee as fast as I could and made a copy of the document to bring to Han Dong... It was more like a newspaper from back then than a document.

In the relevant registration information, some keywords (mostly names) were deliberately crossed out.

"Due to mismanagement, the monastery was ravaged by Demon Locusts, resulting in the deaths of many lower-ranking nuns."

The nun gave birth to a rare Pureblood Demon, who, due to severe antisocial personality disorder, caused the deaths of eight townspeople.

Ultimately, the clerk intervened and sent the Pureblood Demon back to hell.

Afterwards, the entire [Ten Demons] cleaned up and rebuilt the monastery, and it resumed normal operations six months later.

"Demon Locusts..."

Upon receiving the information, they immediately headed to the monastery with their two teammates. After all, the mayor had only given them three days to investigate, and if they couldn't find any information, this exclusive mission would be wasted.

More importantly, Togu will also be impossible to restore.

The closer you get to the edge of the town, the more sparse the houses become.

A road sign stands by the roadside at the town's exit, clearly indicating. "[Monastery, 300m ahead]"

Just then, a trash can by the roadside made a noise.

A homeless man, clutching a bottle of liquor and covered in foul-smelling linen, emerged from a box and blocked Han Dong and his group's path... As the homeless man walked, a large number of woodlice fell to the ground.

"Are you going to the monastery? Squeak squeak squeak~~"

The homeless man's voice fluctuated in pitch.

"Yes."

"Be careful... the things in there are quite troublesome. If you die, I'll collect your bodies."

"Thanks."

After saying that, the man's body was dismantled into thousands of woodlice and returned to the garbage dump... If you look closely, you will find a circular "Woodlouse Mark" on the back of the garbage can.

"Nicholas ...that homeless man just now?" Cas asked in a low voice.

"Hmm, they're probably security guards placed at the town's exit by the mayor or clerk, specifically to monitor the special residents of the monastery... Their aura is quite strong."

The three of them left the main urban area of Derry Town and walked three hundred meters into the suburbs.

The road ahead was completely blocked, Transform Into a bottomless abyss (similar to a scene in the movie Silent Hill).

The monastery, characterized by its pointed arches and ribbed vaulted structures and its towering, slender Gothic style, is built on the edge of a cliff... with about one-third of its area extending over the cliff.
