In her world, they encountered the "Chosen Ones" more than once, and they mostly got along well with them.
Du Lala's proposal was largely approved by the Institute of Weird Things.
Because you have to understand that at the time, Wuliang Hospital itself was a place where a severely mentally ill person was imagining their own dream world.
Everyone inside is a figment of this mentally ill person's imagination.
Jiang Xiao, however, managed to thrive in that environment; you could say he's a person with a normal mind.
Who believes?
That's why they paid a price to offer sacrifices in order to communicate with the "gods" of their world and hope that a chosen one named Jiang Xiao would come and help them.
Du Lala briefly described all of the above to Jiang Xiao.
"Oh I got it."
Jiang Xiao pondered for a moment, feeling that if the reward was reasonable, it wouldn't hurt for him to meet this Pennywise.
‘Click~’
Just as Jiang Xiao was considering, the door was opened from the outside, and a man in black walked in.
His expression was cold, even showing a hint of annoyance.
"Heh, Lala, don't beg him anymore. Do you really think we can't do without him? If the artifact hadn't been lost due to the accident, would we be being led by the nose by a Pennywise?"
Du Lala blushed and said softly.
"That's true"
If their souls were still intact, they could simply storm into Pennywise's mind and fight it out head-on.
"But it's lost, so now we can only ask Brother Jiang Xiao for help. Please be polite."
"polite?"
The man chuckled.
"I'm sorry, I've already transferred Project 135 [Stone of Awakening] from the Lingyun Research Institute. Although its effect is not as good as Project 27 [Soul Separation of Ghostly Artifact], it can still effectively counter Pennywise."
After a pause, the man spoke with confidence and arrogance.
"Currently, we have dispatched two emergency response teams carrying Project 135 to surround and eliminate Pennywise. Would you like to watch the live broadcast?"
After speaking, the man pressed a button on the large screen in front of Jiang Xiao, turning on the footage transmitted back from the cameras on the emergency response team.
just
Jiang Xiao's expression was even more excited than the man's!
OMG!
Judging from his words, the Ghostly Weapon Soul Separation is only ranked 27th?
135 left?
Doesn't that mean there are hundreds of strange artifacts in this eerie research institute?
If I don't make a fortune this time, it would be an absolute injustice!
Chapter 447 Project 77
The screen above is a first-person view and is still moving slightly. You can see the scene directly in front of you, and it looks like it's a camera worn on the chest.
It's high-definition and uncensored, with a very smooth frame rate, even clearer than watching 4K video.
The screen below provides a second view, showing the person's hands and half of their body; the camera is likely mounted on the helmet.
The man in black explained to Du Lala with an air of arrogance.
“Look, this time we’ve sent out two emergency response teams. The best outcome is to capture Pennywise alive, the normal outcome is to severely injure Him, and the worst outcome is to let Him escape injured.”
Well.
Du Lala had something on her mind, but she didn't know whether she should say it or not.
She genuinely didn't understand why this ordinary man had such high confidence in this emergency response team.
It's important to know that the Institute of Mysteries has virtually no information about Pennywise.
"I think these emergency response team members are lying in ambush somewhere. How could you predict Pennywise's location in advance?"
"This is one of the locations predicted by our sociology experts. In fact, there are two other locations besides this one."
As the man in black pressed the button, the image on the wall switched twice.
In other words, a total of 24 people were sent?
"It doesn't seem like that many," Du Lala thought to herself. "No! When it comes to something like this, you can never have too many people!"
"Uh, I'm still a little worried. Are they really capable? Can their weapons even hit Him?"
"Lala, all you need to know is that when it comes to abnormal things, we also have abnormal methods."
Well, that's all the other party has to say, so Du Lala temporarily suppressed her urge to ask more questions.
"Du Lala." Jiang Xiao wiped Du Lala's arm. "What's this girl's name?"
“His name is B2, and he has higher authority than me. It’s possible that the research institute has really found a way to control Pennywise in the last two days.”
Codename?
Well, given the nature of the job, a little mystery is to be expected.
However, the title "B2" is somewhat impolite.
"b2, regarding Pennywise, has our research made a breakthrough?"
B2 nodded. Anyway, it's going to be made public soon, and Du Lala's position isn't low, so it wouldn't hurt to let her know.
"Here, this is Pennywise's information."
Du Lala carefully took it.
The organization currently designates Pennywise as: [Project 77]
Name: [Pennywise]
Controlled Area: [Four Seas (Currently, he has only been observed moving within the Four Seas region, but it cannot be ruled out that he may later escape to other areas)]
Project Overview:
Specific information about the project is currently unavailable. It is speculated to be most likely a gas, possibly a solid object, and less likely some kind of prop. (But it exhibits clear self-awareness.)
They prefer areas with a vibrant, energetic atmosphere or areas with a weak, spiritual environment. (Mental hospitals, schools, child health centers)
No suppression methods have been found yet, but it is speculated to be some kind of psychological attack that would have a serious psychological impact on people within a 50m radius.
Victims experience extreme fear, witnessing their deepest dread, which can cause them to lose consciousness and become defenseless. The condition also possesses a degree of contagiousness (though not strong; the transmission route has not yet been identified).
Project Type: Mental Pollution
Hazard level: Dangerous.
Control measures: None available.
Emergency plan: None available.
Jiang Xiao, who was standing to the side, also glanced at the so-called information and then spoke up.
"Hey buddy, forgive me for being blunt, but I don't think your information is very complete. Of course, I don't deny the difficulty of compiling this information. In the end, I think the emergency response team might not be able to handle it."
Honestly, based on this information, Jiang Xiao could only see that Pennywise was unsolvable and incredibly powerful.
"By the way, Du Lala told me that some mental patients not only survived after encountering Pennywise, but also did not develop the hysteria seen in the medical room?"
understood.
As an expert in the "spiritual realm," Jiang Xiao could easily understand what b2 meant.
"Hey, why don't you guys find a mentally ill person to help you deal with Pennywise?"
“It’s not that we don’t want to recruit mental patients as emergency response teams, but people with higher spirituality can become out of control and do some ‘very bad’ things once they are contaminated. Experts speculate that Pennywise made himself stronger by infecting mental patients.”
"I understand."
Therefore, the reason Pennywise went to the mental hospital was to enhance his own power by absorbing these highly spiritual mental patients.
"So, going to pediatric health centers and schools is also to strengthen one's own power?"
"No, children may have high spirituality, but it's not deep enough. They are more susceptible to external interference than mental patients, and their thinking is unrestrained. This will not make Pennywise stronger."
"Then why does He target children?"
"Maybe they were hungry, or maybe it was just a weird sense of humor, who knows?"
The conversation fell silent.
Jiang Xiao's impression of this B2 improved. Although this guy had a bit of an arrogant attitude, he wasn't a bad person.
The atmosphere was silent, and the three of them could only pass the time by watching the images on the screen.
