Just as Han Dong and the others stepped on the corpses of the failed Dao seekers and went deeper into the cloister.
The Dragon City team, who were one step behind, finally succeeded in pushing the main plot forward.
With Yu Wu's Eye, he found the weaknesses of countless puppets and let Huo Ziping destroy them one by one.
Without the help of any external objects … Just like how he killed The Clown back then, Huo Ziping spent three days and three nights to kill all the puppets in [Neighborhood Mary Shaw].
The strength and dominance that Huo Ziping displayed even made Mary Shaw feel a trace of fear.
She stared at Huo Ziping, who was emitting True Qi from his body, and hung the blade with the dragon shadow in front of the last perfect puppet.
Mary Shaw stuck out her swollen and twisted long tongue and sighed.
"You guys are really powerful. Especially your strength, you're almost on par with the Ten Demons! Maybe you can really kill Pennywise. "
When he heard the name of the clown, Huo Ziping didn't kill her for the time being.
Instead, he let Yu Wu cast a spell to temporarily bind Mary Shaw … and interrogate her on the spot.
"How much do you know about Pennywise?"
"Hehehe! You're currently working for the woman in the town hall, so you should naturally know about the clown.
This is a secret that Dry Town doesn't want to talk about. I do know a little. I even came into contact with Pennywise personally.
But why should I tell you? "
Huo Ziping replied calmly, "None of your puppets are residents of the city … All of them are wooden puppets that you made yourself, and then you imprison the souls of some ordinary people in them.
In other words, you didn't kill any residents of Dry Town.
I'm guessing that the reason you became a fugitive might have something to do with the clown.
And we can kill him. "
During the battle with Mary Shaw, the old puppet woman had mentioned the clown's name many times with resentment. Therefore, Huo Ziping came to such a conclusion as the key to the negotiation.
"Hahaha! Alright, I'll tell you some secrets.
Three years ago, when Pennywise was captured by the clerk at the connection point, he seemed to have completed most of his plans in the outside world ahead of time.
When the mayor noticed the clown's abnormality, he immediately executed the clown.
The first step was to absorb souls and harvest them with the scythe of Dry Town.
His consciousness was branded with Dean Richard's Void Imprint, and his consciousness was annihilated at the starlight level.
In the end, the most brutal butcher in Dry Town executed the clown. The clown's body was divided into five parts and placed in the five safest and most dangerous areas of Dry Town. The five parts were then guarded by the powerful residents.
Even so …
Disaster still came.
The areas where the five bodies were stored all suffered different kinds of terrifying disasters.
It led to the deaths of at least three residents, and a large number of ordinary workers were seriously mutated. Due to this, Dry Town stopped operating for almost a month.
On the death list was my most beloved husband, who was also my most perfect doll.
I vowed to kill this clown and find out that part of his body was buried in the Crystal Lake.
However, when I found his left leg, I couldn't destroy it no matter how hard I tried.
I even saw a bright red mouth grow on the surface of the left leg … It laughed crazily at me and even urged me to kill it.
Hahaha … "
At this point …
The puppet, Mary Shaw, suddenly lowered her head and laughed strangely.
The atmosphere changed.
The light bulbs in the tunnel that had been cut off for a long time began to flicker, reflecting a strange red light.
The air was filled with an aura that Huo Ziping was familiar with.
"Captain! Something is wrong. Hurry up and kill her! "
The tunnel illuminated by the red light made Yu Wu's hair stand on end.
"Wait …"
Huo Ziping trusted the dragon-patterned sword in his hand. As long as the old woman had any intention of attacking or escaping, the blade would instantly cut through her head.
Huo Ziping was waiting.
Because there was one thing he didn't understand. Why didn't Mary Shaw kill any residents? Why was she wanted by the town hall as a fugitive who had violated the ban and must be killed just because she touched the clown's body?
He seemed to be able to get the answer immediately.
Hahaha …
The old woman with her head lowered couldn't help but laugh.
The rhythm and frequency continued to increase.
From the initial snickering, it slowly evolved into a crazed laughter … It was so wild that the old woman's body couldn't bear it.
Smack! She laughed so hard that her trachea exploded.
Because her trachea exploded, her neck tilted backward. The old woman slowly raised her head.
Her saggy and wrinkled face was smeared with a large amount of red dye. Perhaps it was red blood that seeped out from her pores, forming a bright red mouth that was similar to the clown's.
"Haha … Blergh …"
The laughter stopped, as if something was stuck in her throat.
Her mouth was wide open, and something was about to come out of her throat … It looked like a red balloon, but there were some small grasshopper legs around it.
Whoosh!
After getting the answer, Huo Ziping no longer hesitated.
He beheaded her with a single slash.
[Fugitive: [Puppet Demon – Mary Shaw] has been killed. The first main quest has been completed. Please return to the town hall to receive the reward for the main quest.]
Her consciousness dissipated.
Mary Shaw's last puppet turned into a crudely made wooden puppet and fell to the ground.
However, a strange larval insect body fell out from the head that was cut open by the sword.
It looked like a combination of a balloon and an insect — there were more than ten grasshopper legs on the surface of the balloon that hadn't been inflated yet.
If they hadn't killed it in time, this thing might have grown using the puppet demon's body and soul as nourishment.
"No wonder all the residents who came into contact with the clown were wanted by the town hall … As expected, the difficulty of the" Inner Chapter "has been increased. The clown can spread the" laughter virus "through a special method.
Even the most powerful residents of the city would be infected. Once they fell into a weakened state and thought about the clown, the "Laughter Virus" hidden in their bodies might erupt.
I'm afraid only the [Ten Demons] are unaffected.
The clown that was split into five parts should be buried in the territory guarded by the Ten Demons.
It's really difficult to achieve a perfect ending … "
Huo Ziping and Yu Wu carried the damaged puppet as evidence and drove back to Dry Town.
While driving.
Yu Wu, who was exhausted from the long battle, couldn't fall asleep because of the familiar laughter just now … His mind kept thinking about the secret that Mary Shaw had explained.
Suddenly, Yu Wu noticed a problem.
"Captain … Why are there five parts?
If the body was really split, just the hands and legs alone would be four parts.
Considering the clown's strangeness and danger, the head and torso should also be separated.
In total, there should be six parts, right? "
"Hmm … Let's go back and discuss it."
