Chapter 001: Strange Space, Sudden Death at the Start
Messy room.
Yellowed walls.
The ground was covered with blood, hair, and body parts...
The pungent smell of blood awakened Gu Yi. He struggled to get up from the ground and stared at his palm in a daze.
"Where am I?"
Gu Yi looked around.
A cold voice pierced my ears.
"Welcome to this strange space. Please stay cautious and calm. This will determine whether you can survive in this world."
Gu Yi shuddered all over, his heart beating in his throat, "I'm actually in a strange space?"
This world is a world controlled by a "weird space".
Every once in a while, the strange space will select a group of humans to come to the strange world for adventure. They will challenge the strange world on behalf of their respective countries.
If the challenge fails, the monsters in the strange space will invade the representative's country.
Gu Yi felt his throat tighten, his palms sweaty, and his mind was still blank.
"calm down……"
Gu Yi took a deep breath and tried his best to calm his nervousness and fear.
He has lived in Dragon Country for twenty years and has developed a deep affection for this country.
Even if not for yourself, for the country, for your parents, brothers, and compatriots, you have to be brave!
Gu Yi pulled himself together and took a deep breath.
At this moment, that cold voice sounded in his mind again.
"This is the first time for adventurers to enter the strange space. They are eligible to draw talents for free."
"May I ask if you would like to extract it?"
After hearing this, Gu Yi's mood gradually calmed down.
Every adventurer who enters the strange space for the first time can participate in a lottery and obtain initial talents.
Some of these talents can enhance the adventurers' physical strength, allowing them to move faster; others can enhance their mental strength, so that they will not be easily frightened to death by monsters in strange spaces.
It is recognized worldwide that the talent for enhancing physical strength is the most practical initial talent in the entire space, because there are many levels that can be passed by escaping.
Gu Yi was so nervous at first that he actually forgot about this matter until the space reminded him .
"Extract talent."
Jingle Bell--
There was a sound of bells in Gu Yi's ears.
"Congratulations to the adventurer for obtaining the SSS-level talent - [Infinite Deduction]!"
"【Infinite Deduction】can help adventurers deduce everything that may happen in the future. Each deduction consumes a certain amount of the host's mental energy. Just recite in your mind and start the deduction, and you can use your talent."
"The simulation is carried out in real time and completed in an instant. It will not affect the progress in reality. However, your memories during the simulation and the mental trauma you suffered will be preserved. Please keep a cool head at all times."
"Currently the adventurers' mental strength is 50/50."
Infinite deduction?
There was a gleam in Gu Yi's eyes. Although he didn't quite understand the specific function of [Infinite Deduction], just hearing the SSS level was enough to reassure him.
The probability of an SSS-level talent appearing is one in ten million.
The last adventurer who awakened an SSS-level talent cleared five dungeons in a row, while the other players could only clear one or two on average.
Before Gu Yi had time to study his innate abilities, the scene around him changed again, and his body was involuntarily manipulated like a puppet.
At this time, Gu Yi was lying on a hospital bed, unable to move, and the system prompt sound came to his ears again.
"The dungeon is about to open, adventurers please be prepared."
【Copy name】Famous doctor.
[Instance Introduction] Every night you see your fellow patients disappearing one after another , but when you ask people around you, they all insist that they have never seen this patient. You are very worried, afraid that one day you will suddenly disappear...
[Clearance conditions]
1. Perfect Level: Investigate the truth behind Chongshan Hospital and grasp the "unspeakable".
2. Excellent level: Successfully escape from Chongshan Hospital.
3. Ordinary level: Survive in Chongshan Hospital for one month.
The pressure on Gu Yi disappeared and he regained his freedom, but he did not rush to get up from the bed. Instead, he closed his eyes and recited silently in his heart.
"Begin the deduction."
(Deduction begins!)
(You are excited to use your talent skill for the first time.)
(You got up from the bed and looked around.)
(This is an intensive care unit. There is a bed against the wall, a bedside table next to the bed, messy clothes scattered on the floor, and an empty cardboard box.)
(You turn around and open the window.)
(There is a fence outside the window, and the fence is very solid, so it is impossible to escape through the window.)
(You turn around and try to look for clues in the ward.)
(The door of the ward was locked from the outside and could not be opened.)
(You come to the bedside, uncover the quilt, sheets, and mattress, but find no clues or hints.)
(You turn your head to look at the bedside table and open the first drawer. There are only some pills and sundries in it.)
(Boom boom boom)
(There is a knock on the door and someone asks about your situation.)
(You didn't answer.)
(The door opens and a doctor and two nurses enter the room.)
(The doctors and nurses all wore beak masks.)
(The doctor glances at you. He checks your first drawer.)
(He takes off his mask, and his head immediately transforms into that of a monster.)
(Your eyes turn red.)
(you are dead.)
(The deduction ends.)
"ah!"
Gu Yi suddenly opened his eyes and let out a soft cry.
The simulation was so realistic that even the feeling of the monster piercing his heart was perfectly simulated. He felt like he was experiencing real death firsthand.
In the first simulation, Gu Yi was killed by the monster doctor in the hospital before he even left the ward, and no valid clues were found.
"Damn it, why did I die without doing anything? What instant death flag did I trigger?"
At this time, Gu Yi's mental power became 40/50. It seemed that it would consume 10 points of mental power to carry out a deduction .
In other words, Gu Yi must find effective clues in the remaining four deductions, otherwise he will be dead.
The only valid information Gu Yi got was that the doctor in the hospital was a monster. Moreover, he must have missed some key information, which led to his sudden death by the doctor.
"Calm down, I must have missed something, try again and start the deduction!"
Gu Yi took a deep breath and closed his eyes again.
(Deduction begins!)
(You learned from your first failure and instead of wandering around, you focused on finding clues to pass the level.)
(You don't search the bed, but focus on the nightstand.)
(The bedside table has three layers. You have already checked the first layer, so you start checking from the second layer.)
(The second floor is empty.)
(The third layer only contained a folding fruit knife, which you put in your pocket.)
(You didn't find any clues, so you got down on your stomach and finally found a note under the bed against the wall.)
(You take off your shoes and pick out the note from the corner.)
(This is a note with a reminder.)
(Patient Handbook)
(1. Take the medicine on time every morning, noon and evening.)
(2. Please keep the ward clean at all times.)
(3. The person wearing the bird-beak mask is a doctor or nurse. Please follow the doctor's advice.)
(4. If you see blood dripping from the corridor ceiling, please don't panic, this is normal.)
(5. If you see any equipment damaged, please contact the person wearing the elephant mask immediately for repair.)
(6. There are always two people in the intensive care unit. Please keep this in mind.)
(You turn the page to the back of the note and see a line of words written in blood.)
("Don't take any of the medicine they give you. They are a bunch of demons and they will lead you into the abyss.")
