The perspective shifts to Han Dong.
Having detected a strange shadow, he chooses to delve deeper into the opposite direction of the tunnel during the waiting period to investigate the shadow.
“Dead end… strange!
The shadow disappeared right here, theoretically, should this be a crossroad?
The shadow moved to the right.
Is it a ghost, or is there some secret mechanism or hidden passage here?”
“Little Demon Eye” looks towards the right side at a sac membrane (that has not yet cultivated a ghoul). The life-quality solution inside the sac is unique, preventing it from being seen directly through this fluid.
If indeed there is a hidden mechanism, there is a reasonable chance that it is hidden behind the sac.
After all, Han Dong can’t see any ‘secret compartment’ in the area he can see for now.
Without hesitation, Han Dong reaches out behind the slippery sac… It feels like reaching into an animal’s organs while conducting a biological experiment on a live subject.
Warm, slippery, and a life sensation that is hard to express in words.
About halfway on the inner side of the sac, he touches a piece of meaty tissue about the size of a tennis ball.
To confirm the uniqueness of the meatball.
Han Dong gropes around other sacs and finds that this kind of meat tissue only exists behind the sac he just touched, seeming like a button for a mechanism.
The next issue to address is how to trigger the switch.
Squeezing and kneading didn’t work.
Could it be… it requires ‘identity verification’?”
Han Dong tries to activate the special traits of the “Ghoul Arm”, and when he reaches out to knead the meaty tissue again…
Squish, Squish~ (the sound of flesh separating)
The life-quality fluid in the sac is aspirated by a rubber tube.
The outer layer of the sac splits open on its own, revealing a flesh passage that only allows one person to pass through… It is similar to the insect body passage Han Dong once walked through in the sewer of Derry Town, but a bit narrower.
“What is this!?”
With the mass of information collected in his brain, Han Dong makes a very risky decision on the spot.
Without informing Abe and Night Watch Jon.
“Full Disguise”
If Han Dong can disguise as a human, he can also disguise as a ghoul based on the special traits of his right arm.
Two shoulder blades protrude from his back, and his spine contour becomes extraordinarily prominent.
After completing the disguise,
Han Dong quickly crawls into this hidden flesh passage.
Finding it hard to come by, through this “Night Watch task” he came to the deep end of the Ghoul Nest underground in the graveyard… if he only completes the current Night Watch task, he feels a bit short-changed.
With such a golden opportunity in front of him, Han Dong wants to dig out more useful information.
“Since my right arm is capable of ‘identity verification’, with a full disguise, I would likely not be discovered over 90% of the time.
This passage might lead deep into the manufacturing area of the ‘Ghoul Factory’… If we can get a glimpse of some secrets here in advance, it will be of great help to our subsequent in-depth investigation.
I’ll find an opportunity to escape and meet up with Abe and the others when the time comes.
The only thing to do is remain concealed.”
When crawling out of the flesh tunnel.
Han Dong arrives at a noticeably special open area.
No signs of plague ravaging can be seen here, and there are no ghoul sacs on the walls.
The stone walls are installed with torches every three meters for illumination.
Bear in mind, ghouls do not like ‘light’.
To a certain extent, it means that the main individuals active here are not ghouls… but another type of living entity.
In the current area, the most conspicuous things are the four glass devices filled with Plague Primitive Liquid.
They stand in the open area, interconnected by thick rubber tubes, equipped with a variety of manual control valves.
At the same time,
Many humans are gathered here, draped in deep green robes, the unique religious imprint – [Withered Arm] is printed on their backs.
That’s right.
The firelight illuminates their human features under their hoods.
They are the workers here, responsible for the production and collection of Plague Primitive Liquid, recording related information and data, and regular maintenance.
“Are these…. the out-of-town humans that the witch mentioned we might encounter during this training – [Heretics]? A single heretic poses little threat, but a group of heretics are quite dangerous.
Once they detect an intruder, they could possibly perform a large-scale sacrifice and summon very terrifying entities.
I’m disguised as a ghoul, it doesn’t seem good to move around this area… better switch identities.”
Han Dong stays in the flesh tunnel, deliberately knocking on the wall to make a noise, drawing the attention of a [Heretic]…
When this [Heretic] approaches the flesh tunnel to observe,
An ominous eye suddenly flashes, making eye contact with the heretic.
“Visual Contamination”
Immediately after, a hand catches hold of the heretic’s collar, directly pulling him into the tunnel.
In a short while, a man in the same deep purple religious clothing walks out… only this time, it’s Han Dong in disguise.
“Now it’s perfect… let’s go deeper and see. Maybe we can find the source of so many ghoul juveniles.”
Imitating the posture of the heretics.
Han Dong crosses his hands horizontally in front of his chest, forming a straight line, and slightly lowers his head.
Bypassing the plague manufacturing area, continuing forward to the core area of the Ghoul Nest.
The scene that meets his eyes makes Han Dong momentarily taken aback.
Han Dong’s guesses weren’t wrong at all.
Such a large number of ghoul juveniles were not produced by simple breeding, but through a dedicated ‘breeding channel’.
The core area is designed as a platform structure.
At one side of the platform, there is an exit connected to the ‘meat tube pathway’.
Every once in a while, a ghoul juvenile would slide out from the tube, perfectly positioned in the center of the platform.
In addition,
A large number of heretics are working here, responsible for the ‘delivery’ work.
For the newly born ghouls, the heretics apparently have a target measure.
For those that meet the measure, they are sent into the sac for ripening culture.
Those that don’t meet the mark are dealt with on the spot.
According to Han Dong’s observations, at most one in ten could meet the required standards.
This scene stimulates Han Dong’s senses.
Han Dong feels he has figured out half of the secret of Stuart Manor.
“This ‘meat tube pathway’ that can infinitely reproduce ghouls, almost certainly corresponds to the [Maternal Body].
The meat tube extends towards Hill Castle, the location of the Great Lord Stuart.
That’s about it. Being able to obtain this crucially important information is quite the harvest.
Time to go back and gather with Abe and the others.”
Just as Han Dong turned around to leave…
The ‘Chief engineer’, who is in charge of all the work down here, appears standing right in front of Han Dong.
Pins, tubes, and various metal coils stick out from his forehead, and his brain is about three times the size of a normal person’s.
He is clothed in a white coat.
The lower part of his body has almost morphed into tentacles, moving forward by wriggling.
“You… why do I smell Charlie on you?”
