Roy was really going all out this time, determined to properly defy his teacher.
But the Great Demon Lord was the Great Demon Lord. No matter what tactics Roy used, he could never completely defeat Elizabeth.
This woman's stamina was like an endless well, constantly draining Roy's body.
"Little Roy, my child, if this is all you've got, you won't be able to satisfy me!"
Elizabeth looked at Roy with a mischievous expression.
Gritting his teeth and stomping his foot, Roy directly entered his Demon Child state.
Instantly, Roy's three physical attributes received a temporary boost of 10 points. His whole body swelled up, and then he forcefully clashed with his teacher.
Elizabeth's eyes lit up, and then she quickly set up a barrier to prevent the demonic aura around Roy from leaking out.
After transforming, Roy's combat power increased significantly, finally satisfying Elizabeth.
However, Roy didn't have much stored fear emotion left because he had used a lot of it during the Southern Demon incident, so the Demon Child state couldn't last long.
In less than three minutes, Roy felt his body reaching its limit, and his stored fear emotion was about to run out.
At this moment, Elizabeth suddenly turned the tables and pinned Roy to the carpet, making him the "mech pilot."
"Good boy! Keep going, don't stop!"
Roy suddenly felt some energy flowing back from the "fuel tank" along the "fuel nozzle," allowing him to continue maintaining his peak Demon Child state.
Is this even a good thing?
Roy immediately gave it his all, preparing to fight Elizabeth to the death.
"Feel my wrath, Teacher Elizabeth!"
"Yes, I feel it! But I want to feel more!"
Just as Roy was diligently taking a "physiology lesson" with Elizabeth, Jennifer was tossing and turning in bed, unable to sleep, still worried about Nidy.
With her mind full of thoughts, Jennifer didn't even realize when she drifted off to sleep.
That night, Jennifer entered that strange dream again.
In the pitch black, a blurry voice called out a blurry name.
This scene had often appeared in her dreams since the night Jennifer "gave up first blood."
But recently, Jennifer felt that the voice seemed to be getting clearer.
"Who exactly are you? What do you want to say to me?"
The voice was silent for a rare moment, and then it said a sentence that Jennifer finally clearly understood.
"Are you ready, Lilith?"
Lilith? Who is Lilith?
Just as Jennifer was about to ask back, the darkness in front of her suddenly disappeared, and she abruptly saw the ceiling of her bedroom.
But the perspective was very strange, as if she were floating in mid-air.
What's going on?
Jennifer looked down and saw another version of herself lying on the bed, resting.
Due to cultural differences, if she were an East Asian, she might have thought her soul had left her body, but as a native-born American, Jennifer's first reaction was that she was still dreaming.
Am I still dreaming?
Jennifer looked at the other herself in surprise. This feeling was actually quite strange. She even wanted to reach out and touch herself, but found that her hand passed right through.
Can't touch?
After observing for a while, Jennifer felt a little bored and thought about leaving her bedroom to go for a walk.
However, after leaving the bedroom, it wasn't Nidy's familiar house, but a corridor that felt somewhat strange and somewhat familiar.
Looking at the characteristic white walls, Jennifer realized that she had probably arrived at a hospital.
The hospital was empty. Although the lights were on and it was very bright, it gave her the creeps.
"Is anyone there?"
No one responded to Jennifer, but she vaguely seemed to hear the sound of a little girl crying.
"Who's crying?"
Jennifer curiously followed the sound of crying and arrived at the door of a familiar observation room.
"Isn't this Nidy's hospital room?"
At this moment, Jennifer realized that she had come to the town's hospital.
Through the observation window, Jennifer didn't see Nidy, but instead saw a seven or eight-year-old blonde girl in the room, hugging her knees and crying.
Jennifer inexplicably felt that this little girl looked very familiar, as if she had seen her somewhere before.
So, Jennifer pushed open the door of the observation room and walked in.
"Little girl, why are you crying?"
The blonde little girl looked up at Jennifer.
"I... my brother is missing!"
Jennifer looked at the blonde little girl's face in surprise. It was actually Nidy as a child.
Even though almost ten years had passed, Jennifer still remembered what Nidy looked like when she first met her.
At that time, Jennifer had just been adopted by her adoptive parents, and Nidy had just moved to Waterfall Town.
It was one afternoon that Jennifer and Nidy accidentally met, and from then on, they became inseparable best friends.
But why would Nidy as a child appear here?
Jennifer hugged little Nidy, stroking her hair to comfort her.
"It's okay, Nidy, it's all over now!"
Under Jennifer's comfort, little Nidy's emotions gradually calmed down.
"Big sister, who are you? Why do I feel like I've seen you somewhere before?"
Little Nidy was really very cute, and Jennifer liked her very much.
"My name is Jennifer."
"Big sister, do I know you? I feel like I've forgotten a lot of things."
"Yes, we'll be friends in the future."
Jennifer was chatting with little Nidy, and as they talked, little Nidy's body suddenly started to convulse and tremble violently.
This commotion startled Jennifer.
"Nidy, what's wrong? Nidy!"
Nidy's face was pale, and her face was full of fear.
"Clown, the clown is coming!"
Clown?
Jennifer held Nidy and looked around. Sure enough, she saw a red-haired clown standing outside the hospital room, watching her and Nidy.
With just a glance, Jennifer could feel the intense malice in the clown's eyes, and an inexplicable fear rose from the bottom of her heart.
The clown grinned, revealing rows and rows of sharp, jagged teeth, and then pointed a finger behind Jennifer.
Jennifer subconsciously turned her head to look, and a burly man wearing a white rubber mask walked out from the shadows behind her.
Michael Myers!
This was the image Jennifer feared most in the depths of her heart!
The moment she saw Michael, Jennifer immediately held her head and screamed.
"Ahhh—"
After screaming, Jennifer opened her eyes again and found that Nidy, Michael Myers, and the red-haired clown were all gone.
She was no longer in the hospital observation room, but lying in her own bedroom bed.
Judging from the light coming in from the window, it was probably five or six in the morning.
"Was it a dream?"
Jennifer opened her hand and found a few strands of golden hair in her palm.
Chapter 83: Pennywise
In the early hours of the morning, Elizabeth finally reached satisfaction.
【Ding! Acquired Belial's Conquest Treasure Chest! Open it?】
"Oh, my child, you've pleased me greatly!"
At this moment, Elizabeth was sitting cross-legged on a massive throne, looking refreshed and with a post-coital cigarette dangling from her lips.
The woman's appearance had undergone a huge transformation. Last night, she got so excited while tutoring Roy in biology that she revealed her true demon form.
She stood over three meters tall, with huge pointed horns on her head and a bewitchingly beautiful face.
The most terrifying thing was Elizabeth's... assets. They were bigger than Roy's head, and several times he felt like he was about to be suffocated by them.
Compared to Elizabeth's state, Roy was looking rather miserable.
He had heavy dark circles under his eyes, his legs were constantly trembling, and he had to support his lower back just to stand up straight.
"Teacher Elizabeth, can you tell me now?"
"Of course! Come here for a moment."
Roy gritted his teeth and shuffled over to Elizabeth. She reached out and placed her hand on his lower abdomen. A warm current flowed from her palm into his body.
In an instant, the fatigue and soreness in his muscles were relieved. Although it wasn't enough to bring Roy back to his peak condition, he at least didn't feel like a squeezed-out rag anymore.
"That's a little reward for your performance earlier!"
Elizabeth exhaled a puff of smoke and then began to formally answer Roy's question from last night.
"That thing is called Pennywise. It's a special life form from outer space."
"Pennywise? From outer space?"
Roy looked at Elizabeth in astonishment. Hearing this from the mouth of a Hell Lord was truly bizarre, like meeting Einstein and him suddenly starting to tell you about his all-powerful master, Cthulhu.
"Little Roy, you don't actually believe that aliens don't exist, do you?"
"It's not that. It's just a bit strange to hear such a sci-fi statement coming from you."
Elizabeth smiled and lifted her foot to rub against Roy's calf.
"Times are different now. Whether it's Hell or Heaven, we have to keep up with the times, otherwise we'll be left behind."
Roy was speechless. He hadn't expected demons and angels to be so competitive.
"So, how can we get rid of Pennywise?"
"As far as I know, Pennywise is immortal. It feeds on fear and lives by fear. However, if you can make Pennywise feel fear, you might be able to kill it."
Roy recalled the movie plot, and it seemed that was indeed the case.
The protagonists overcame their own fears, and the clown's power began to wane, eventually leading to its demise at the hands of the group.
Hmm, with his memory attribute getting higher and higher, Roy's recollection of movie plots was becoming clearer.
Some of the more memorable moments even played back in his mind like watching a film.
Roy then asked his last question.
"How do I find Pennywise?"
"That guy likes dark and damp places, and he likes to target children when it's raining."
Rainy days, huh?
Roy looked out the window. It was currently raining heavily in Waterfall Town. This seemed to foreshadow something.
"Thank you, Teacher Elizabeth. Then I'll take my leave."
With that, Roy prepared to make a run for it, because Elizabeth's foot was rising higher and higher, almost touching his vital region.
If he didn't run, Roy felt like he would be devoured alive.
"Leaving so soon? Stay a little longer! Teacher thinks your physiology knowledge needs some serious reinforcement!"
Roy was originally just walking quickly, but upon hearing this, he bolted, afraid of being left behind if he was too slow.
Fortunately, Elizabeth was just joking with Roy. He escaped all the way back to his car, and she didn't try to stop him.
"Hmph! One day, I'm going to make that woman scream 'Daddy'!"
Just as he finished speaking, his phone suddenly rang, startling Roy.
Roy looked around, feeling a bit guilty, afraid that Elizabeth might suddenly pop out from somewhere and demand a rematch.
Luckily, it was all just Roy's imagination.
He picked up his phone, and the screen showed Jennifer's number.
"Hey, Jennifer, I was just about to come pick you up."
"Roy, something happened! Needy, Needy is gone!"
"What did you say? When did this happen?"
Jennifer's voice on the other end of the phone had a trembling sob in it.
"I just got a call from Rebecca. I don't know when it happened..."
"Jennifer, don't panic! Are you at home? I'll come find you right now!"
After hanging up the phone, Roy immediately started his car and drove to Needy's house, then picked up Jennifer and headed to the town's hospital.
Observing the hallway outside the ward, Arthur was holding Rebecca, comforting her.
The newest and fastest novels are first published here!
"Arthur, Rebecca, what happened last night? Why is Needy missing?"
"It's all my fault! I fell asleep while keeping watch last night. When I woke up, Needy was gone!"
Rebecca covered her face and crouched on the ground, emotionally collapsing.
Roy looked at Arthur.
"Arthur, have you checked the hospital's surveillance footage?"
Arthur shook his head.
"I checked, but Needy isn't visible on the surveillance video. It's like she vanished into thin air."
Jennifer looked at Arthur in disbelief.
"Uncle Arthur, how can someone just disappear?"
As she spoke, Jennifer suddenly remembered something and pulled Roy aside.
"Roy, I had a very strange dream last night!"
Jennifer told Roy in detail what happened in her dream, and this instantly made Roy understand what had occurred.
"It seems Pennywise took Needy!"
"Pennywise? You mean that red-haired clown?"
Roy nodded.
"Jennifer, what you saw probably wasn't a dream, but something that actually happened. Do you remember when it happened?"
"About half an hour ago."
"Then there should still be time! Let's go!"
Roy immediately pulled Jennifer back to the Chevrolet Camaro.
"Roy, where are we going to look for Needy?"
"Someone told me that Pennywise likes to hide in dark and damp places! I suspect that guy took Needy into the sewers!"
In the movie, the clown was indeed in the sewers, but the sewer systems in Europe and America are quite complex, and searching directly would be a waste of time.
"Jennifer, I need your help! You possess some kind of special power, a power that can help us find Needy, just like you saw last night!"
Hearing this, Jennifer was stunned for a moment.
"The power within me?"
Roy placed his hands on Jennifer's shoulders and looked her earnestly in the eyes.
"Yes, that power. We need it. Needy is waiting for us!"
Jennifer was momentarily dazed, clutching the necklace around her neck, the friendship necklace that Needy had given her.
"I understand!"
