Chapter 109: Chapter 109: Date with the BOSS
Translator: 549690339
About the matter of the âfake Koslinâ.
Han Dong had doubts from the moment they met.
Involving the clownâs hidden events, how the three people managed to pass through unharmed was obviously unusual⊠Itâs not that Han Dong didnât trust in his teammatesâ strengths.
After all, Han Dong himself was injured while carrying out a side task.
He was shot multiple times in the lower body by a bullet and invaded by a swarm of parasitesâŠ
Upon their meeting, Han Dong swept his [The Eye] across the three of them.
There was nothing wrong with Cass and Sophia.
But he found a stream of red energy swirling inside Koslin.
In the subsequent clue discussion session, Han Dong observed Koslin many times.
He confirmed that this red energy was not accidentally contaminated by Koslin, but âbrought alongâ⊠Coupling this with Koslinâs deliberate behaviour of actively asking for a camera later on, Han Dong basically confirmed his identity.
Quiet night.
The âfake Koslinâ walking in the tree-lined avenue begins to show slight changes.
The lips crack, the cheeks turn pale.
Nevertheless, the clown still retains Koslinâs clothing and hairstyle.
If you donât look at the face, heâs still a 14-year-old, short middle school
student.
And so, the two of them start their âsecret rendezvousâ.
Angry as he is, Han Dong hasnât forgotten anything about what happened to âBellaâ.
However, itâs a special situation right now⊠In the following conversation, any hostility or unnaturalness from Han Dong could lead to a âbreakdownâ in talks.
There are not many chances for one to have a private meeting and chat a bit with the final BOSS in a fate-related incident.
As for emotional control, Han Dong has got a knack for it. He simply regards the clown as a temporary âallyâ and maintains a normal conversation.
Looking across the Holy City,
The Apprentice Knights are in the extremely dangerous Fate Space, either considering how to deal with the final BOSS, or thinking about how to fight for more survival time from the bloody clutches of the final BOSSâŠ
People like Han Dong, who went on a date with the final BOSS on the second night of the event, were absolutely unique.
âAre you bored? Trying to turn the whole town into your game town⊠Or are you worrying about something?â
When Han Dong asked this question,
The clown cracked his mouth open, revealing an exaggerated smile.
Even though his mouth didnât move, a strange sound was formed out of nowhere.
âItâs rare to see a smart person like you⊠The previous tourists who came in ended up dying as they were playing.
You guys are the most interesting group⊠And you, you are the most interesting person in your group.â
âOther guests?â
The deeper meaning of this sentence seems to imply that there were other Apprentice Knights who had been to [Derry Town] before.
However, since the clown is still alive, that means that there were no signs of any previous groups.
âYeah, a bunch of guests who get lost in various games while immersing themselves in them. Some little guys even came looking for me, but⊠They didnât even have the chance to play a bit longer.â
Listening to this information, Han Dong still kept a poker face and continued to delve deeper:
âYouâve learned some âsecretsâ from these people, havenât you?â
The âsecretsâ referred to here are the Fate Space.
The clown is the ultimate BOSS of this fate event.
But essentially, he is still a character within the scene.
According to the content of the above conversation, itâs highly likely that the clown knew some relevant information about the âFate Spaceâ from the mouths of a few previous teams of Apprentice Knights.
Thatâs why he thought of creating a large number of false side plots, transforming Derry Town into his âamusement parkâ, and treating the teams that came later as âplaythingsâ.
The clown just laughed without giving a direct answer.
Han Dong felt the time was about right to cut into the real topic at that moment.
âBut no matter how powerful you are, you can only control the [Surface Layer], right?
You canât reach the deeper things⊠Thatâs why you tried to disguise yourself as âKoslinâ and mix with us, trying to go to the hidden sewer.
I might be here for the first time, but I can probably guess that.
The [sewer] where Bella was transformed into a parasitic monster fundamentally doesnât belong to Derry Town, or rather, this sewer area is connected to an âinner layerâ that even you donât dare to set foot in casually.
Am I right?â
Upon hearing Han Dong, the clown hurriedly took a red balloon out from his pocket.
âCongratulations, youâve guessed part of it! Hereâs a balloon for you.â
After confirming there was nothing wrong with the balloon, Han Dong decisively accepted it⊠trying his best to satisfy some of the BOSSâs requirements so that the conversation could continue smoothly.
âCough, cough, letâs talk about our âdealâ now.â
Han Dongâs tone gradually became serious.
âI wonât expose your identity, and in the meantime, the two of us will form a small team, taking the clues directly to the [Sewer].
On one condition.
We need you to return âKoslinâ to us, if you still havenât torn the ticket.â
Who would have known, the clown directly pulled out a cloth puppet from his pocket, representing the cartoon version of Koslin.
âTa-da! Here is the little guy, Iâll return him to you now.
However⊠He can only return to his human form after the sewer incident is over.â
Han Dong verified the authenticity of the puppet using some sort of [The Eye].
After handing over the puppet, the clown stared straight at Han Dong, a strange voice echoing in Han Dongâs head:
âBeing smart doesnât mean youâre strong enough⊠The âthingâ in the sewer isnât easy to get rid of, do you need to prove your ability a bit more? The ability to kill a giant parasite is still not enough.â
âStill not enough? What about this?â
Han Dong suddenly placed his palm on the clownâs shoulder.
Squirming sound! For the first time, Han Dong saw the clownâs expression change, the smile disappearing!
Whoosh!
The clown retreated five meters abruptly.
But since Han Dongâs move was too fast and without warning, his tentacles had already touched the flesh of the shoulder.
Contamination!
A kind of spotted contaminant spread across the clownâs left arm.
The clown, feeling the pain, wailed on the ground, all while the other hand of the clown popped out multiple scalpels from between his fingers, quickly cutting off the entire contaminated area.
The left arm and part of the left half of the body were cut off and separated.
Plop!
After falling to the ground, it turned into concentrated water along with the clothing.
[Super Fast Regeneration]
The clownâs body was as if it was filled with lumps of flesh, and the meat split and forcibly shaped with skin, quickly creating a new body.
Ha ha ha⊠Ha ha ha!
A very strange laughter lingered in the night, with the leaves of the surrounding banyan trees also rustling along.
âYou want to kill me?â The clownâs voice had a strong hint of killing intent.
âDidnât you ask me to show my strengths? Is there anything wrong?â Han Dong looked innocent, but in his heart, he was laughing out loud⊠A part of his suppressed anger was finally vented out.
The clown abruptly stood up, quickly approached Han Dong with a twist in his stride, his pale face almost touching Han Dongâs.
Han Dong still stood in the same place, appearing relaxed and uncaring.
The two stared at each other for five minutes.
âInteresting, I indeed didnât read you wrong⊠I will give you another balloon as a gift, Iâm very satisfied with your performance!
âLet us cooperate smoothly, Mr. Clown.â
As Han Dong took the balloon, he reached out his hand for a shake with the clown, reaching a âdealâ with the ultimate BOSS of this event..
