[Comprehensive horror] I am convinced of this system task

"Alessa?!"

I looked at her in shock.

Aretha... This name, if you say it is familiar, I am very familiar with it.

Isn't that the little girl in the original Silent Hill?The man who was almost burned to death in an evil church ceremony, and then because of fear and the darkness in his heart, he took revenge on the church and even the entire Silent Hill.

It is simply the dual existence of the main character and the final boss.

Then if this is the case...doesn't everything, everything make sense?

I slapped my forehead hard and suddenly realized.

Because the entire Silent Hill, or at least the current Silent Hill where the real world, the external world, and the inner world exist at the same time, was born because of Aretha.All monsters can be said to have arisen because of her, and Triangle Head, as a monster that exists in Silent Hill, is of course no exception.

"You...really, that is?..." I have already stammered, and I can't speak at all.And Heather, no, Aretha's eyes became clear again.Her current appearance is nothing like the hateful little girl in the game.

She thought for a while, probably thinking about how to explain this to me: "How should I put it... I am not a complete Aretha, I am born of her, but I have her memory, and there is a part of me in my body." 'Aretha', so I thought it would be more accurate to call me by my current name 'Heather'."

Seeing that I was stunned and didn't respond, she continued: "It's the first time I saw what we saw when we went underground. A long time ago, the underground of Silent Hill was like this. People in Silent Hill think this It's a curse, and the church has been looking for a way to make the 'true god' descend in order to break the curse. I, or Aretha, was the last victim."

"The church...the church now? That little girl?" I thought of my previous experience.Logically speaking, that evil church has already been wiped out by the vengeful Aretha in the game plot, right?

Heather nodded: "Yes. When you were in the church before, I thought of a way to remind you in the form of 'Alessa'. But you were not vigilant."

I still recalled it for a while, and finally remembered that it was the shadow of the little girl I saw in the corridor that night when I lived in the church.

I didn't notice it at the time, but now that I think about it, that shadow is exactly the same as the Aretha I saw in the game.

"You said... the Esther you mentioned back then was the priest?"

Heather nodded, but instead of answering my question, she said, "You come with me."

Before I could say anything, she turned around and started running, and I could only keep up: "Where are you going?"

"Fourth floor, psychiatric department."

When I heard this place, my heart skipped a beat.

Although the groom had already left, I was still faintly worried when I remembered that Triangle Head tried every means to stop me from going there.He reached out and grabbed Heather's wrist, feeling that it was inappropriate, and let go like an electric shock: "Wait for me."

I ran back across the room, grabbed my weapon and backpack, and followed Heather again.Enter the hospital stairwell.

"I don't want to understand." I said suddenly, "I, I came here, just..."

I was at a loss for words.I don't know how to explain it to her. I accepted the system mission to clear the Triangle Head, so I could only lower my voice and casually mumble it: "What does everything about Silent Hill, such cults, have to do with me? I'm not going to take care of it anymore, why did you come here to remind me?"

Heather strode up the stairs, so fast that it was difficult for me to catch up: "Don't you know yet? Although this world was originally born because of Aretha, but now its center, It's already you."

"that is……"

"That is to say, they are looking for the target of the 'true god' to descend, and that is you."

Are you kidding me?

God?What does it have to do with me?

As if seeing through the doubts in my heart, Heather continued: "Esther's church believes that the 'True God' will be born from the ashes of 'God'."

"Are they crazy?? Why! And..." The priest's little girl's face appeared in my mind again, and I couldn't imagine why she would have such thoughts, "Why would she want to do that?!"

god?What does this illusory thing have to do with me?

I'm just an ordinary person who accidentally strayed into Silent Hill!

Heather had already arrived at the gate of the psychiatric department. Just as she was about to open the door to enter, she turned her head and looked at me with a strange look in her eyes: "You still think Esther is just an ordinary little girl?"

For a while, I didn't realize what Heather meant. She sighed and continued: "You are too careless, come with me."

At this time, even if I realize that she is criticizing me, I have nothing to say to refute.I am indeed a careless person, so I can only follow her passively at this time, and together with her, I entered the psychiatric department where even the triangle head would be a little bit resistant, let alone my own.

"You've been here before, right?" Heather walked to the round reception desk in the middle of the hall and tapped her fingers on the countertop.I nodded, though, both in the real world and in Silent Hill, this place was enough to make me cringe:

"Yes, I have been here, and..." I looked at the circular nurse's station, remembered the note I saw here before, and couldn't help asking, "Who is Andrew William?"

Heather should know everything in Silent Hill, and I think she should also know this person who has been in my journey as a note writer countless times.But Heather gave me a strange look, then naturally skipped the question and jumped into the circular front desk.

When I also flipped in and stood beside her, Heather picked up a tome on the counter that looked like its pages were very messy, and shook it in front of my eyes: "You have been here before, and you didn't notice this?"

It took me a while to read the words on the cover of the book, which is a file of psychiatric patients.

I can't remember whether I noticed this tome at the time.What happened in the psychiatric department made me terrified every time I entered this kind of place. At that time, I only saw the note from William, and I wanted to find the gel that powered the machine. As for the mental patients, I didn’t have time. I don't even care about it.

It doesn't matter to Heather whether to give an answer or not.She lowered her head and flicked through the patient file, and said, "If you see this, I think you will change your view of the church."

She turned to one of the pages, stopped, turned the file around, and handed it to me.

I haven't looked at it carefully yet, just glanced at it, and I can feel the cold sweat seeping out from the pores on my back, wet the T-shirt and stick to my body.

"Hormonal imbalance...hypopituitarism...? What the fuck, what's all this?..." I frowned, unable to believe what I was seeing, "her appearance stayed nine years old...and Actually..."

I looked at the top of the file, below the photo of the priest I was most familiar with, the date of her birth, and I almost screamed out in fright: "She is older than me?!"

Heather nodded and said nothing, just let me continue watching.I calmed down and continued to read:

"She also, also has severe violent tendencies...and...antisocial personality disorder..."

The file is only a few thin pages, but after reading it, I always feel that the amount of information in it is too large for me to digest for a while.Finally, I closed the book with a bang and stared wide-eyed at Heather beside me.

"You mean," I tried to calm myself down, not trembling, "because of her problems, she wants to kill me?"

If so, it would be terrifying.In the church before, although I felt that the priest was a bit mysterious, and her behavior did not match the appearance of the little girl, her behavior was still kind. It seemed that her purpose was to destroy those burning zombies, protect the town, and completely It is impossible to imagine that behind that immature face, there is such a terrible murderous intent hidden.

Heather pursed her lips and nodded lightly: "Yes. But I think the illness is not the pure reason, she must have some other plan...Who is there?!"

She suddenly shouted behind me, and I quickly turned to look, wondering if someone was eavesdropping on our conversation.

But behind me, there is only the long and quiet corridor that I avoided before.

My scalp instantly tingled.The corridor was not dark, there were a few lamps, the lights were dim, illuminating the corridor section by section.

And in the deepest place, I also saw a gray figure standing there quietly.But in the next moment, it disappeared suddenly like evaporating.

"We were on the fourth floor. Several times, we seemed to see... ghosts."

I suddenly remembered what Parker said earlier.He didn't take it seriously before, but now that the figure disappeared with his own eyes, he couldn't believe it.

This should be what he called the ghost.

I pulled out my gun and looked around with my flashlight to see where the ghost had gone.I suddenly lowered my head, and found that it appeared in the corridor again, and it was closer than before.

This time I could see more clearly. It seemed to be the figure of a man wearing a hood.Only soon, it disappeared again.

"Heather, let's get out of here," I urged.I'm not sure what that is, and I don't want to confront it head-on.I just hope to get out of here quickly, this psychiatric department that I never want to come to again in my life.

But as soon as I turned my head, that pale, scarred face appeared in front of me, very close.

I looked into those gloomy eyes, and before I could scream, I lost consciousness and passed out.

The author has something to say: I'm here QwQ I'm very sorry~!
