Chapter 138: Realm of Despair
In the dust, Xiaoyu fell down in front of the wall, his body was burnt and covered with blue ghost blood. One of his arms connected to half of his chest was blown into pieces by thunder and disappeared.
This attack caused enormous damage to him.
In the distance, Lin Chen's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, like a bolt of lightning, and now appeared in front of Xiaoyu.
"This time, you can let me save you."
Xiao Yu angrily asked, "When did I ask you to save me?"
As he spoke , the injuries on his body healed instantly, and the side of his chest and arm that had been destroyed by the thunder technique also regenerated.
But this time, he didn't plan to fight with Lin Chen again.
Instead, he transformed into a ghost and flew towards the building like an arrow.
He needed time now.
The ghost power of the Scaled Monster continued to merge in his body, and his strength was gradually increasing.
If he could completely merge with the Scale Monster, he believed that he would not be weaker than this human.
He was very fast, and with the full burst of ghost power, he was away from Lin Chen in an instant.
But the next moment, a flash of lightning appeared above Xiaoyu 's head, and Lin Chen's figure appeared again.
When moving over short distances, Lin Chen's Thunder Escape is comparable to teleportation.
A kick with ghost power hit the black shadow that Xiaoyu had transformed into. Suddenly, Xiaoyu's body condensed out of the void and slammed heavily on the grass like a cannonball.
But soon, Xiaoyu flew out from the rocks again, and in a flash, flew in another direction.
However, Lin Chen caught up with him again and knocked him to the ground once again.
Unlock it like before.
Lin Chen wanted to destroy Xiaoyu's self-confidence from all aspects and then rescue her by force.
I saw a black light and a lightning speeding across the open grassland and colliding with each other. Each time, the black light was knocked to the ground, but soon it would fly up again.
After dozens of times.
Hei Guang finally stopped moving, but at this moment, his aura suddenly surged.
"Finally the fusion was successful."
Xiaoyu's face showed excitement, and the green scales on her body became more shiny. Her originally pretty face now looked dull.
Lin Chen's figure emerged from the lightning, and he said thoughtfully: "So you still have this trump card hidden."
For some reason, when Xiaoyu saw Lin Chen's expression, she felt anger rising in her chest.
Obviously his strength has increased again, and this increase is even enough to threaten him, so why can he still maintain a nonchalant look?
Has my strength never been taken seriously by them?
"The realm of despair!" Xiaoyu roared.
The next moment, endless darkness surged out from his body and enveloped the entire hospital copy.
Lin Chen's body was instantly submerged in darkness.
"Come and experience the despair I once felt."
A whisper of light rain was heard.
This is his innate skill.
The realm of despair, a real illusion, evolves everything in the darkness.
As long as you are in the illusion created by the realm of despair, you will experience everything that is presented there in an extremely realistic way. If your heart is not firm enough and there is even a trace of despair, you will completely sink into it.
Even if the spell is lifted, the person who has been cast will still be in despair and will never wake up.
This is his final trump card!
Lin Chen looked around.
At this moment, a completely new environment appeared in front of his eyes.
He was originally standing on the grass outside, but he appeared in the lobby of the hospital building.
Moreover, the surroundings were bustling with caregivers walking back and forth, and there was no negative energy on them.
From his perspective, he actually turned into a young boy.
"Is it a fantasy?"
Lin Chen felt that in this environment, his ghost power and internal strength were affected, and they were actually a little slow in operation.
His consciousness seemed to have merged into the young man's body.
"How come it's like traveling through time?"
As an old time traveler, Lin Chen couldn't help but mutter to himself.
The next moment, Lin Chen's mental power began to vibrate rapidly, and most of his consciousness returned to his body in an instant, regaining control of himself.
This illusion might be able to trap other people, but with Lin Chen's extremely high mental power, he was able to escape from it half a step in an instant.
After regaining control of his body, Lin Chen can even use thunder magic at any time to break through this realm.
But when he saw the young man in front of him, he temporarily stopped trying to break the illusion.
Because this young man was Xiaoyu.
He looks even younger than the desperate ghost Xiaoyu in the copy.
Is it Xiaoyu’s memory?
Lin Chen suddenly realized something and out of curiosity, he temporarily stopped thinking about breaking the illusion.
After all, he can break this illusion at any time and it does not pose any threat.
Xiaoyu is a ghost so special that even the system pays attention to her and issues tasks to her. Lin Chen wants to see what is so special about Xiaoyu.
Including what the old ghost said, Xiaoyu eventually killed someone in the hospital, and his motive made Lin Chen extremely curious.
Part of Lin Chen's perspective is on Xiaoyu, and part of it is a God's perspective, where he can see everything around him clearly.
At this moment, Xiaoyu's expression revealed a hint of fear, but there was still a stubbornness in her eyes.
Next to him stood a beautiful woman, who looked to be in her thirties, and was dressed very appropriately. Both her clothes and the watch on her wrist gave people a sense of luxury.
Xiaoyu, on the other hand, was wearing very old clothes, which was completely different from the woman. Standing next to her, he looked out of place.
The beautiful woman had a smile on her face and took Xiaoyu's hand and walked upstairs.
Along the way, there was no communication between the beautiful woman and Xiaoyu, and the atmosphere looked very weird.
On the sixth floor, the two stopped in front of a door.
Lin Chen was not unfamiliar with this place; it was Director Gui's office.
"This should be the situation when Xiaoyu first arrived at this hospital." Lin Chen thought to himself.
The beautiful woman pushed open the door and saw Director Ghost sitting in front of the desk. When he saw the two of them coming in, Director Ghost smiled in a professional manner and said,
"Ms. Wang, is this the Xiaoyu you mentioned on the phone?"
"Yes, Xiaoyu is sick. I think it is a mental illness, so I come to trouble you." The beautiful woman spoke. When she talked about Xiaoyu's illness, her tone and expression were very calm, as if she was narrating something that had nothing to do with her.
The director said, "This is a closed hospital. I hope you don't mind this."
"Don't mind. I've learned about this before. This is the hospital with the best reputation in the city. Its service attitude is the best in all aspects. That's why I brought Xiaoyu here."
After the symbolic conversation ended, the director nodded, then looked at Xiaoyu with a kind smile and said, "Little friend, what's your name?"
"Xiaoyu, Rong Xiaoyu." Xiaoyu answered fluently. Although he was still young, he knew what he was facing.
This woman, who became his legal guardian after his parents died in an accident, was his aunt.
They tried every possible means to take over the inheritance left by their parents.
Finally, they agreed on a solution, which was to lock themselves up in a place they could never leave.
That way, they can have everything they want!
Although Xiaoyu had no way of resisting his uncle and aunt's arrangements before coming here, after arriving here, he thought that as long as he could behave normally, he would not be really locked up.
After all, this is a mental hospital, and the only people living here are patients, right?
The director smiled and seemed to like the child very much. He continued, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Xiaoyu shook her head and said seriously: "I am not feeling uncomfortable, and I am not sick."
Lin Chen, who was watching this scene from a God's perspective, shook his head.
He could see all of Xiaoyu's inner thoughts, but he was wrong in saying this. The worst thing to say in a mental hospital is that you are not sick.
Sure enough, the director smiled grimly and said, "Every patient says he is not sick."
"you!"
Xiaoyu is a child after all. When faced with such words, his inner emotions became a little excited at the first moment.
Even though he was much calmer than his peers, at this moment, a slight change appeared on his face, but he quickly calmed down again.
He couldn't be angry. His father had told him not to be affected by emotions at any time, as that would only make his situation more passive.
"Being irritable and easily angered is indeed a type of mental illness." The director ghost's next sentence completely angered the young man.
"I didn't! You are talking nonsense, you are a fake doctor! I clearly told you that I am not mentally ill, and I am angry because you falsely accused me." Xiaoyu shouted anxiously.
The director's expression remained unchanged, with an intriguing smile on his lips. He pressed a button under the table.
The door was immediately opened by several caregivers wearing masks, and they walked in quickly.
He grabbed Xiaoyu , and regardless of his resistance, he took out a syringe filled with transparent medicine and injected it into him.
As the drug was injected, Xiaoyu suddenly felt dizzy, and soon she fell asleep and became quiet.
The beautiful woman watched everything expressionlessly, until the caregivers took Xiaoyu out of the office , then she revealed a triumphant smile.
The director took out a file bag that had been prepared long ago from the drawer and handed it to the beautiful woman.
"This is Xiaoyu's proof of mental illness."
The beautiful woman took it, opened it and checked it. A hint of greed flashed in her eyes, and then she sealed the bag.
With this certificate, Xiaoyu's parents' inheritance no longer belongs entirely to Xiaoyu.
They will "keep" it without any dispute until the day Xiaoyu recovers mentally.
But this day, she knew, would last forever...
"I will transfer the money I promised you this afternoon. Take good care of the child, but never let anyone see him again."
