Chapter 707: The Source of Everything

The reason the clown cannot be killed is not because he is indestructible, but rather he cannot be killed.

The key reason lies in the laughter attribute that the clown possesses.

When discussing the clown's manic laughter, two crucial points must be brought up, which are also the main problems caused by this laughter.

≮First Point, the disaster at Other Derry Town≯

The essence of the disaster is the "clown virus". Unlike common viruses, it can be transmitted directly through sound (The mechanism works by the brain absorbing the audio, with the stimulation of neuronal signals, forcing the stem cells in the body to differentiate, causing the individual to self-assemble and form the virus).

Once infected, there will be a lengthy latency period during which there are no symptoms and the virus cannot be detected by any means... it can only be estimated by combining virology and statistics.
