Chapter 113: Joker's Powers
Han Dong's instincts were correct.
The extreme choice he made was also correct.
Without making contact with the ultimate boss of The Joker's Return of the Joker (Table Chapter).
There was no way Han Dong would have been able to figure out the concepts of [Table] and [Mile] in such a short amount of time.
Generally speaking.
If one followed the regular clearance method, constantly obtaining 'clues' from the various branching events and exploring them gradually, it would only be possible to get a glimpse of some of the concepts of [Mile] when one finally defeated the Joker.
Of course, the premise is that 'defeating the Joker', the difficulty is self-evident.
To fully draw out the Joker's Return (Ri), you must wait until you become a full knight.
For such an extremely valuable chain of quests, it would definitely be beneficial to be informed of some information in advance.
Also.
From a piece of information that the Joker 'accidentally' gave about "Derry town - Dark History".
To a certain extent, it indicates that [Joker-Pennywise], should have been born in [Mile], which is Old Derry Town.
Within the so-called Old Derry Town, a group of madmen were born due to the influence of the 'Dark History'.
In addition to the Joker, there were many crazy and terrifying individuals, some were even more dangerous than the Joker, and if one were to delve deeper, it would definitely touch on the origins of this dark history.
It was definitely not something that the current Han Dong could deal with.
Thus, Han Dong had to make an appointment with the Joker.
"I need to determine one thing in advance, you don't want to go to [Old Derry Town], do you?"
Joker points to Han Dong and laughs.
"Hahaha! Look at how nervous you are, I escaped from there so easily, how could I run back?
At least, it's not time to go back yet.
The purpose of my visit this time is to understand the problem with the [Middle Layer].
In addition to the last time Bella was affected, there are many ordinary people in my New Derry town who have been mutated by the effects of the [Middle Layer].
If I continue to drag this out, the playground I've built up so easily would be destroyed by these guys.
Besides, I'm taking the opportunity to set up enough safehouses in the middle layer for future use.
When I have enough certainty in the future, I'll go back to my hometown again, and kill all those stupid dogs!"
While talking about this matter, the Joker was overly excited, his eyes were rolling, and several of his tongues were even tying into bows in his mouth.
"The monsters wandering in the [Middle Level], are they from Old Derry Town?" Han Dong asked.
The Joker immediately untied his knotted tongue and patiently explained for Han Dong.
"No, I wasn't the only poor guy who wanted to leave Old Derry Town back then! There were quite a few guys who escaped to the middle level, but I was the only one who eventually found the [Entrance and Exit].
The middle layer is more complicated than you can imagine.
These poor guys who couldn't find the entrance and exit, due to being under a curse, plus being affected by the horrible whispers in the old Derry town, ended up losing themselves in the sewers.
Some are completely lost, their organism unable to remain as it is, swollen and deformed and reduced to part of the middle layer.
Some choose to commit suicide, their flesh corrupting and disintegrating into a piece of individual with an independent consciousness, lurking in the shadows to prey.
Some are cursed too severely and their consciousness dies and they are reduced to mere cursed objects.
All in all, what lingers here is a bunch of LOSERS (losers), But then, even the losers in the old Derry Town can wipe out your team if they get a little serious."
Han Dong responded with a calm face.
"So, Joker, your goal is to 'clean up the losers', right? Reduce their effect on New Derry Town."
The Joker nodded, "Pretty much, the main thing is to remove the source of luring ordinary people down here and mutating them."
At the same time, the Joker in a very friendly way, patted Han Dong's shoulder and said, "But then, since you have clear 'system instructions', just follow the instructions and explore.
I haven't been down here for a long time either, and the road conditions and structure down here are definitely different from what I remember.
Also, if you follow the instructions.
You'll also get a reward in the end, right?"
"Well,"
"Then it's decided, since it's the two of us teaming up, we all have to get something, ha-ha."
Han Dong stared at the hippie Joker, it was hard to guess what it was thinking, but one must never slacken their mental defenses against the Joker, they must be careful with their next move, have to stay on their toes.
"Let's go, Go find the map! Hopefully everything will be completed successfully by tonight."
The Joker who had returned to his old place looked very excited, pulling out its own 'weapon' in front of Han Dong's face.
Kirika!
Down along his own sticky esophagus, he reached his arm inside and began to feel for something in his stomach sac.
"Ugh, it's been a long time since I've fought, where are my fighting tools?"
The Joker looked puzzled and felt around inside himself for a while, from the stomach pouch to the small intestine area and then slowly to the large intestine area.
Swish!
Carelessly.
A careless hand, came out from the bottom.
"Ouch, sorry, shame on you! Wait for me again."
The arm was retrieved back into the body.
By drumming for a minute, it finally caught what the Joker wanted in the left abdominal position.
Ka!
Jaws loose.
Allow the mouth to open wide enough for the secret weapon inside to be removed.
Body fluids are sticky.
As the arm drags, a sledgehammer is slowly dragged out of the mouth!
Watching this scene of "Treasure Hunt Inside" made Han Dong a little uncomfortable, the taste was just too strong.
A colorful sledgehammer about two meters long and short, common in amusement parks, was carried on the Joker's shoulder area.
If struck by such a sledgehammer, Han Dong felt that he might be killed directly.
And such a sledgehammer seemed to be just one of the props in the Joker's body.
Han Dong thought to himself, The Joker's flesh is far more enormous than it looks, and there are other holes inside, it's just a good idea to use this cooperation to get to know more about some of its special abilities so that we can deal with it later.'
The Joker waved his hand, "I'll lead the way, follow me!
I vaguely remember the [Main Control Room] being different from a normal staff room, very special! As long as we follow the signs at the fork in the road, we should be able to get there."
"Okay,"
The Joker had an extra dose of advice.
"I know you're purposely hiding some abilities, to use against me in subsequent episodes, but I advise you not to hide too much, or else what's here will kill you instantly, even if I try to save you, it'll be too late."
"Well, I'll call in a helper."
Han Dong snapped his fingers.
Miss Chen Li showed up.
Only Chen Li leaned behind Han Dong as soon as she showed up due to her fear of Jokers.
"Not bad, Give Miss a gift. If you expose your body directly to the middle layer, you might have problems oh."
Hiss~la!
The Joker changed his own facial skin.
The newly shed facial skin immediately transformed into a special mask of [White Face, Red Lips].
The Joker didn't have a problem at all, and immediately formed a new face through the efficient regeneration of tissues and the reassembly of one strip of flesh at a time.
