"Who else wants to continue?" Bruce turned to look at Night Owl and said, "Your setting shouldn't be complicated, right?"
Night Owl sighed and said, "This is my first time playing this kind of game, too."
"I'm surprised that you would cooperate with him." Bruce pointed at Greed. He did not forget that it was Night Owl who led them to the laboratory of Siltec Corporation.
"Aren't you working with him too? Okay." Night Owl curled his lips and said, "In my background story, I did run into some troubles, and they were able to help me sort them out."
"Is that the story you told about your boss?"
"Not entirely." Night Owl paused and said, "Your previous analysis is correct. I am an anarchist, so in my background story, the area where I live is full of tragedies of people using strange events to seek revenge and wipe out families. Those events are so simple that you can see through them at a glance, but the law enforcement agencies turn a blind eye to them because solving strange events is not their job."
"And you want to expose all this?"
"Yes, this is the main reason why I came here."
"But you're not for justice."
"No." Night Owl didn't seem to intend to hide his evil. He said directly: "I want them to understand what it feels like when a truly terrible and bizarre event happens to them. For this, I have made a lot of preparations, the purpose of which is to summon a real disaster."
"You are a cultist???" The agent was really surprised. He didn't expect that this was the real purpose of Night Owl. He asked, "Did you do anything?"
Night Owl nodded and said, "When I learned that monsters have weaknesses that can be restricted, I used this to commit many crimes, causing chaos in my jurisdiction."
"But I'm just a small policeman after all. I don't have the ability to deal with everyone. But when I released the weird events, I came into contact with the mastermind behind it."
"I hope to use the Mastermind to kill more law enforcement officers who are doing nothing, and from what I know, a force under the Mastermind is on standby in Faraines."
"Wait a minute, when you were making up the story, you probably didn't know about the existence of the church and old Siltek, right?"
"I don't know, but I know there must be a mastermind behind this." Night Owl's logic is very self-consistent. He said, "In my stories, I always believe that monsters are conspiracies created by a certain organization, not natural disasters. Since it is a man-made disaster, there must be a mastermind behind it."
Batman understood his logic. Night Owl actually didn't know who the real mastermind behind the Beyonder's setting was, but he firmly believed that there was such a person. His purpose of coming here was to find this person and ask him to help him solve his current troubles, or even use him to go further.
"You thought at that time that the mastermind behind this was old Sirtek?"
Night Owl nodded and said, "The church people performed mediocrely."
Everyone else looked at Pride, then back at the agent.
The background story that Schiller designed for himself was indeed unremarkable, and the church line did not surface at the beginning. Instead, the line of the Sirtek Medical Insurance Company appeared earlier. Naturally, Night Owl would think that this was the mastermind behind the game setting.
"To be honest, I'm not very familiar with this kind of game and I don't know how to win, so I just leave it at that."
Although he said so, Bruce could still feel that he was a little unconvinced. The deaths of the others at least had some reasons, but Night Owl was actually completely unprovoked. His personality was not that offensive, so he should have lived longer.
But unfortunately, the agent was unreasonable.
"Does his background story have anything to do with the main storyline?" Greedy asked the Transcendent.
“Remember Jeff’s family’s new daughter-in-law?”
"The lawyer Doris whose stomach exploded after eating fish?" Greedy frowned slightly. He said, "Isn't that the background story of the Pale Rider?"
The Transcendent shook his head and said, "If the Pale Knight is indeed a famous lawyer, then it is possible, but in reality, isn't he poor and destitute?"
Greedy then realized that what they had previously assumed was that the Pale Knight had many lawyer friends, and Doris might be related to his previous cases and also knew Madeline.
But if the Pale Knight had been impoverished a long time ago, it would probably have nothing to do with Doris. And if Madeline was a bad person who staged and staged the murder of her entire family, she probably wouldn't have had too much dealings with lawyers to avoid being exposed.
"Doris's family died in the strange events caused by the Night Owl." The Transcendence said, "and Jeff's son saved her, and the two of them got married."
"What's so important about this guy?" Bruce said.
"There was fish in her stomach, and her death was strange, exploding from the inside out." The agent suddenly said, "This should be related to sacrifice."
"That's right." The Transcendent nodded in agreement. He said, "This brings us to the plot that was not designed by me."
"What is it?"
"The Deep Ones." The Transcendent One sighed and said, "They were not in my original story at all. They were written into someone's background setting and then summoned here."
"Who?"
The Transcendent looked at the Joker.
The clown nodded obediently and said, "I am set to be a painter, but not an ordinary painter. My ancestors were court painters in Europe and have always served the royal family."
"He was once highly regarded by the royal family, until one day he developed a strange madness that caused him to draw all his characters as ugly fish monsters, and when questioned, he insisted that they were just like that."
"All the horrible and ugly paintings he drew were destroyed, and he was locked up in a mental hospital, but even there, he did not stop creating and kept drawing those ugly fish-head monsters."
“Many years passed and his paintings were scattered, but some of them were preserved and brought to America, and when I saw one of the paintings, I got the same inspiration as him.”
"I think such monsters must exist. They must be around us. It's just that we can't see them. There must be legends about them in the world."
"I have been looking up relevant history until one day, I saw some seemingly plausible eyewitness reports in the records of an unknown small village. They all said it was just an urban legend like Bigfoot, but I knew I had to go and welcome them."
As the Joker finished speaking, Greedy couldn't help but applaud. He said, "As expected of the Joker and Batman, they can even make up stories that go together."
Batman's setting is that this small village used to worship evil gods, and the Joker's setting is that this small village has witnessed monsters. Isn't this connected?
"So you were the one who summoned the Deep One?" Bruce asked.
"That's right. I have to prove that my ancestors and I are right. These ugly fish-headed monsters do exist. They have long been among us and have gradually replaced our relatives and friends..."
"Are you sure you're talking about a fish-headed monster, not a lizard man?"
"Almost." The clown waved his hand and said, "I just made up this monster because I thought that Faraines was a seaport and a fish-man was more reasonable."
"Didn't you point to the Deep One?"
"No." The clown said, "In fact, the legend of ugly fishmen is spread all over the world. It is not unique to any myth. Who cares what the thing on the shore is called."
"Ahem." The Transcendent cleared his throat and said, "He didn't directly say that the one who came ashore was the Deep One, but the setting of this game is Cthulhu Mythos, and the most famous fish-man monster in Cthulhu Mythos is the Deep One."
"How did he summon it?"
"Cult sacrifice." The Joker said directly: "When he was in the mental hospital, my ancestor gained a lot of inspiration through painting. He speculated on a way to summon this mermaid monster to prove his innocence, but he died before he could put it into practice."
"Just feed fish to people and then kill them?"
"It has to be a special fish." The clown said, "It is a fish that has lived with these ugly fish-man monsters. After people eat it, they will be affected by special powers, and after the sacrifice, the monsters will be attracted."
"Is this what you did after you landed?"
The clown shook his head and said, "I don't have that much time. This is all in the background setting. It doesn't say that sacrifices are not allowed."
"So you agree?" Bruce looked at the Beyonder again.
"At that time, I thought it would be a good idea to add some monsters on the road." The Transcendence said, "In fact, at that time I already had a hunch that you guys wouldn't play according to the script, so I had to make it more difficult for you."
"It didn't work." The agent looked at Bruce and said, "You drove so fast that you used up all their oxygen. They were so tired that they all went into the sea to refill their oxygen."
Bruce smirked.
"Okay, now there are only two main events left." Pride looked at Bruce and Greed and said, "Only your backstories have not been fully revealed. Do you have anything to say?"
Greed and Bruce looked at each other and Bruce said, "Me first?"
Greed had no objection, so Bruce spoke up, "First I must say that my backstory was altered."
"What do you mean?"
"What I told the Beyonder was the original version, but after I made a deal with Naya, he used that book to give me a second version."
"I know." Arrogant snorted coldly and said, "An outstanding graduate of Miskatonic University."
Bruce cleared his throat and said awkwardly: "It was an accident, an accident. I spent all the money. Can't I set a good academic record for myself?"
"Let's talk about the original version first." Greedy said, "When you said you were an agent, you probably hadn't made a deal with Naya yet, right?"
"No, I am indeed an agent."
"Then why did you become a psychiatrist again?"
Bruce shot a silent glance at Greed.
Greed looked at him, and he looked at Greed.
The two of them stared at each other for a while, and after a while, Bruce spoke first.
"This matter has to start from the beginning when the abnormal incidents first appeared. When the strange incidents spread around the world, the US government also made certain efforts to strengthen national security."
"With the approval of Congress, the U.S. Homeland Defense and Strategic Security Logistics Agency was established. Over the years, they have been handling various strange incidents within the federation with the support of the government, and have also trained many talents with special abilities."
"And I am a psychological consultant who provides psychological counseling services to agents..."
