We live in a post-truth world, where brain parasites are just as valid a lifestyle as government conspiracies.

"Useless town" hopefully they dont drop a bomb/gas everyone to death or so XP

Reality is perception. Doubly so when your brain parasite tells you to walk into a tunnel

 

[EarlofMillenium]

Foundation? Are we seeing a hapless level 2 researcher in action?

 

[solamente]

yeah she could have handled that one more casually

 

[biologist]

New party member get?

 

[MsW0lf]

New party member get?

Nope. Just the revelation that there’s also a conspiracy in the town to keep a lid on things when people like Mikura or Baseball guy get too feisty.

 

[Oeconomist]

Empiricist girl versus woke teacher.

 

[Lunkli]

I wonder how many people in the town know? It could even be up to 50%, with the majority of them just not saying anything to avoid causing a stir like her teacher is implying, here.

 

[Pagemistress]

Has Researcher Guy seriously not figured out that Glasses Lady is the new host? My guy, she pretty much told you!

 

[tototototoo]

Honestly i'm surprised more villagers 'in on it' haven't rly tried stopping this mc before , that said other than some distorted/hacked/edited imagery, shame she can't just like, film the next villager getting eaten and send it to ppl but i assume it wouldn't work

wonder what happened to the old man unless she got absorbed and transformed (i don't remember/prolly need to re-read more carefully XP)

 

[sotokouya]

i kept being suspicious when we never seen her actually visited the teacher when she was called, this is like the first one. also while i can't really argue about it because she's only a middle schooler but i can't lie that she pissed me off a bit

starting to feel that the teacher might be against it before but gave up and would be convinced to help again (Another anyone?)

 

[gundulgondrong]

the truth the girl's head is bloated.. believing it's not doesnt make it the truth...

 

[sssr]

I think the older people in the town have always known about the old man in the tunnel. For that matter, they probably even know WHO he was. It's the researchers who are being misled. They thought they "brought" the "experiment" to the town, when what they've been doing is actually research a phenomenon indigenous to Rannai itself.

The town's elders probably have been managing the situation for centuries, given how old the legends are. They simply "let go" of the infected as needed.

Im typically not big fan of gore, but man this is good. Thanks!

Oh yeah, we saw his burned corpse. I'm pretty sure she just ate some of his flesh.
