Chapter 112: Safe Houses and Middle Levels
Grey.
Crawling through the damp tunnel for nearly a thousand meters.
The first thing that caught the eye was surprisingly gray light.
"We're here!"
The Joker put away the long legs of the grasshopper growing out of his body and disengaged from the passage.
Han Dong jumped down after him, his 'hidden eye' always watching the situation around him.
It's different from the sewer you might imagine.
Rather than a sewer, it looks more like a complex, abandoned underground station area with multiple pathways.
A white tiled underpass with no end in sight on either side.
At the top of the semi-cylindrical passageway, hanging every five meters, are gray chandeliers.
Tick tock, water will continue to spill from between the wall tiles, and blurred stop signs and directional signs posted on the access road.
Finally, there was a small, reddish pellet similar to a fire core floating in the air.
"An abandoned underground station?"
Activate the crow icon on the back of your hand area and protect your entire body with a "Doctor Beak Costume" to avoid contact with this odd fire core.
At the same time, a system voice is heard.
The large (abnormal) branch line has been activated: [Twisted Launch Channel].
"Special Information".
You have entered a special space area with a large number of deformed beings, grudging evil spirits, and cursed objects entrenched within, the overall difficulty surpasses the main plot of "The Return of the Joker (Tableau)", so please make sure that the individual or small team has sufficient strength.
"Event Requirements".
1. Please go to the "Main Control Room" and look for the "Launch Channel Map (Twisted Version)".
After the first step is completed, subsequent requirements will be given one after another.
Event rewards (individual).
1). Big Clues (The Terrible History of Derry Town)
2. Destiny Chest (will definitely open fine grade equipment, random)
3. The "Launch Passage Map (Twisted Version)" item is converted into an in-kind reward to bring out the Destiny Space.
4. One Fate Point (You need to complete at least 90% of this abnormal branch line)
"It's,"
Han Dong couldn't help but be surprised by the rich rewards.
First of all, the Destiny Treasure Chest could actually open up equipment of an even higher level.
Han Dong was still very interested in this kind of extremely valuable and fine equipment.
When he had gone to the trading center before and happened to look through the blue equipment's illustrations, their prices were at least 3000 to start with, and the weapons were even worth five figures!
Han Dong reckoned that this Destiny equipment would have to be at least at the [Knight] stage before its full effects could be brought into play, Moreover, such a price would never be affordable to the average trainee knight.
Han Dong was more special, and if he could get the fine equipment with the corresponding attributes, he might be able to bring out its full effect.
In addition, what Han Dong valued most was nothing more than fate points.
If he could get an extra point, once Han Dong could leave this event alive, he could 'jump' again and become a four-star Mystic Apprentice.
At that time, he would be just one step away from 'Seed Sprouting'.
Fate Points should be considered the most valuable 'item' in the end times.
It was just that such a large (abnormal) branch wasn't that simple, after all, even the final BOSS of this Fate Event, the Joker, didn't dare to step foot here at will.
"Come over here!"
In the few seconds it took Han Dong to receive the information and be slightly stunned.
The Joker was already standing in the laborers' lounge fifty meters away.
"It's not too safe to stay where you are for a long time, oh~ Hurry up and come in."
"Hmm."
In a bid to keep his voice as low as possible, Han Dong trotted over.
However, his [Eye] seemed to notice something, prompting Han Dong to turn back abruptly.
Seeing the grey passage far behind him, there seemed to be a large number of twisted foreign bodies writhing forward at the top of the passage, and a large number of eyes were looking at him.
This caused Han Dong to get goosebumps all over his body and hurried to join up with the Joker.
"Wait a minute, I need to create some safe houses out here.
Once we attract too many monsters down here that we can't eliminate for a while, it will create a snowball effect that will gradually diffuse into an unconquerable tide of corpses!
Some [Save Points] must be created."
The next trick, displayed by the Joker, was beyond Han Dong's comprehension.
The Joker kept extracting red balloons from his coat pockets, pants pockets, and later his mouth, nostrils, and ears!
Balloons serve only one purpose.
That is to fill it!
Numerous balloons were thrown into this laborers' lounge, and when they filled the interior completely!
The Joker heaved the door shut, as if he was waiting for something.
"Five, four, three, two, one! ding-ding! safe house manufacturing complete!"
The Joker looked excited as he opened the door again.
The crumbling lounge had been transformed into a kind of safe house filled with seven colors!
Even the original single-story iron door was surprisingly replaced with a kind of hydraulic valve door similar to a bank vault, with an extremely high safety factor.
Staying inside such a colorful safe house really gave Han Dong a sense of 'security'.
"Phew! Thanks to you, Han Dong, we were able to enter the [Sewer] during the safest hours, and the creation of the first safe house went very smoothly, the probability of survival has increased quite a bit.
The next time I pass by a separate compartment like this, I'll spend some time converting them into safe houses."
"Hmm."
The safe house was like a [Save Point] in a sense, and it was useful to explore such extremely dangerous and unknown areas.
The Joker leaned closer to Han Dong with an excited face, "You should have received information about the so-called event, right? Quickly tell me what to do."
Now that he had formed a team, Han Dong also shared the requirements of the branching event.
Of course, there were things about rewards that Han Dong would not say.
"Searching for the map first? Hmmm, right! It's incredibly complicated down here, because the route is always changing."
The floor of the safe house was made up of a kind of colorful sponge.
The Joker sat down on the ground and motioned for Han Dong to sit down close to him.
"As I said before, I'll tell you all about some of the 'secrets' of this place!
In your mission descriptions, you call this place [Twisted Sewer], However, I have a simpler name for it.
The Middle Level!"
"The middle layer, "If Han Dong was thoughtful, he seemed to have guessed some in advance.
"Yes, this is going to involve the dark history of Derry Town!
As for me, I was just a poor victim of dark history. It's only because I had better luck and escaped early.
By the way, do you think I'm crazy?"
The Joker suddenly pointed at its red nose and seriously questioned Han Dong.
"Yes."
"Ahaha! That's right! Once upon a time in the dark history of the town of Derry, all of its inhabitants went insane!
Even some crazier than me, ouch! The topic has suddenly gone off track.
Let's talk about the [Middle Layer] first.
The so-called [Middle Layer] is precisely the only sandwich layer connecting New Derry Town to Old Derry Town oh!"
"The table and the miles! Indeed!"
