Chapter 539 Terror strikes!
Building No. 3 of the Psychiatric Ward is located at the back of the entire hospital.
Feeling some inexplicable threat, Colin did not fly over directly as he did before. Instead, he tried to reduce the stimulation of this ghost place as much as possible and moved forward according to the signposts on the ground.
"Maybe something deep inside the hospital has noticed something?"
Colin tried to interpret the inexplicable threat.
He didn't feel particularly scared, but the mission was not completed yet, so it was not the time to fall out.
If it breaks out prematurely, it is very likely that the mission will not be completed...
Along the way, apart from the footsteps of a few people and the occasional conversation, there was only the lingering wailing sounds.
The source of these sounds could not be traced, as if they came out of nowhere, making people feel inexplicably chilled.
"hiss……"
The orange cat following Colin hugged his arms and looked at the empty and depressing surroundings:
"Who built this damn place? What is it used for? It's so weird..."
"Who made it? You'll probably have to ask Bonfire Company."
Colin responded in his heart, but did not say it out loud. He continued to pinch the "Psychopath" with one hand while leading the small team forward.
The danger of the fourth level is not too troublesome if you know how to deal with it.
If he hadn't been worried about being targeted by something more dangerous, he would have launched an unparalleled attack right here.
"Gulp gulp..."
The sound of a metal door sliding suddenly came from not far behind.
"Hiss..." The two employees were suddenly startled and subconsciously picked up the weapons in their hands to look.
A sickening stench of decay slowly wafted out from it...
But other than that, the door only opened slightly and nothing emerged.
Dahui Shengte looked at the words "Emergency Room" on the door and said, "Maybe the body in the emergency room came back to life..."
He briefly introduced the situation, which was that starting from this floor, there might be some strange corpses appearing from nowhere in some wards, including the "emergency room".
If someone passes by nearby, they might follow...
But I just follow and don't do anything else.
"Why do you talk like a toad..." Colin pursed his lips.
"Yes, almost. Anyway, I remember there was no threat..." The Holy Body of Ashes had just said half of it.
The orange cat on the side seemed to think of something and interrupted him directly:
"There's a threat! I remember now. The location of the corpse is similar to the location of the lit windows when we entered from the first floor. If I remember them, I can avoid them..."
“Also, they will not only follow, but will also attack.
"As long as someone in our team is unconscious, you will see it appear..."
"In other words, the rule that triggers their attack is that people fall into a coma or something like that?" The Holy Body of Ashes sensed the key to the words.
"right……"
"Wait, the sick guy in Brother Shunzi's hand..." Dahui Shengti looked at the person that Brother Shunzi was dragging.
Orange Cat was stunned, remembering that the old man was in a coma. He hesitated and said speculatively:
"Maybe it's because this is a hospital patient, so they consider him one of us?"
"Maybe, but it doesn't matter..."
Colin ended his conjecture. Through the campfire, he could sense that, amidst the thick stench behind the metal sliding door, there were twisted figures that seemed to be peering out...
In the darkness, there seemed to be a sticky sound of blood or some thick liquid falling to the ground.
From what they sensed, these shadowy things really seemed to be just secretly spying on them, and they had no interest in the "madman" in Colin's hands.
"But speaking of which, attacks can occur when one is unconscious, so does that count when one is asleep?"
Colin couldn't help but think about it. He wondered if these things would come over when he descended into the depths of the hospital.
If there are risks, they still need to be dealt with.
"Can they be killed?" he asked.
The orange cat shook his head: "No, it can't be destroyed. Even if you kill them, they will reappear from the place where they came out and keep coming until they wake up or die completely..."
As the two of them were talking, Colin also noticed another key point in the other person's words: "You mean, after we kill them, they will reappear from the same place they came out?"
"right……"
"That should still be solved."
Colin thought for a moment, then took out a portion of new energy charcoal baked from a third-level containment object from his pocket and threw it into the metal door.
Amidst the "boom" vibration, flames instantly filled the entire room.
“Ahhhhhhhhhh!!” A heart-wrenching scream was heard suddenly, but it disappeared quickly after a few seconds.
"This fire can last for quite some time. If we just revive from the starting point, we should be able to resolve this issue... Let's go. If you see , tell me."
After saying that, Colin continued walking without wasting another second on these things.
"Ah, so strong..."
Seeing Shunzi's actions, both of them were obviously stunned for a moment——
They were just thinking about how to avoid it, but Brother Shunzi directly blocked the birth point and killed them. This... was really a path they had never thought of.
After feeling that the strong man's thinking was different from his own, he hurried to catch up.
Another ten minutes of action passed. As Colin moved forward, he blocked several wards, departments, and even buildings. Finally, he saw several psychiatric wards in the middle and rear.
From here on, the originally vague screams that came and went became more "real".
The eerie and absurd feeling in the air thickened...
After a quick observation and walking in, even Colin suddenly felt a sense of dizziness...
It's as if all the functions of the brain have been impacted to a certain extent.
As a result, there is obvious incoordination in muscle control throughout the body.
"snort."
Colin groaned, and the bonfire erupted, melting and destroying all the strange mental shock.
Then, under the radiant light of the campfire, he sensed the presence of some barely visible "figures" around him. Their form was similar to the figures on the "train in the fog," but their essence was different...
However, the problem is not serious at the moment. Within the area of fire radiation, these things alone will not become an obstacle.
I walked up the stairs covered with moldy patches to the third floor, and at the end of the corridor, I saw the room marked "701".
After pushing it open, Colin first saw a small area that seemed to be a consultation room. There was a desk, a few chairs, and a small refrigerator that seemed to be used to store medicine.
Outside this area, five white beds were arranged in a row, separated by a partition...
Put aside the slight but unignorable stench that comes towards you.
It can be said that this place is clean and tidy.
Colin took a quick look and after making sure there was no danger, he stepped in and covered the entire room with flames, carefully checking all the blind spots inside.
Then, he reached into the small refrigerator to check, but found that it was locked.
However, the lock was not very tight, and it made little difference to him whether it was there or not. After burning the lock core directly, Colin opened it easily and found that there were indeed some chemicals inside.
And through the little maid's analysis, we learned the ingredients of these potions...
"Cyanide?"
Colin raised his eyebrows and took the medicine in his hand to look at it. How could there be such a thing in the psychiatric department?
Although he was completely confused by the names of most drugs, he was quite familiar with this thing. After all, friends who had been sentenced to death and executed by injection knew that this thing was extremely toxic and was usually used for euthanasia...
It is obviously unreasonable for the patient to appear in the psychiatric department. It is impossible for him to be euthanized if he cannot be cured, right?
When I was confused, some words suddenly appeared on the potion...
[Cyanide Injection Type O-3: A medical device created through the imagination of individuals suffering from intense paranoia, through inducement and suggestion, combined with special means...]
[Applicable Conditions: After injection, it will not cause any damage to the organism itself, but can accurately wipe out the consciousness of common level 3 and below containment objects.]
[Example 1: After successfully transforming into a humanoid form, an experimental demonic entity's human nature became disturbed and negative. This transformation was confirmed to have failed. After approval from multiple departments, the entity was stripped of its human status and all basic rights. After completing various tasks, the entity was injected with the "O-3" injection.]
[His more negative consciousness and cognition were all erased, and the small amount of benevolent consciousness that remained grew with the help and cultivation of the "Fire Bearer". Ultimately, he reshaped his cognition and was reborn, becoming a glorious and noble defender of humanity.]
[Usage Example 2…]
【……】
[Note: The use of this drug requires approval and stamps from nine relevant departments. If any one of these is missing, the injection will still be ineffective...]
[Special Use: Under special circumstances, a single emergency use authorization may be granted by three or more C-level personnel, one "Fire Master", or one B-level employee.]
…
"Specialized medical supplies for erasing failed human cognition. Level three and below. The effect isn't particularly special..."
Colin was surprised, but he was not surprised by the effect. There were many other means and extraordinary methods that could modify cognition.
But this is the first time I have seen such special "medical supplies".
At this moment, he looked at the item in his hand, his eyes slightly fixed, and realized that his guess about the purpose of this hospital might be wrong.
What this hospital produces might not be used to treat illnesses, but it's very likely to be used to make medicine...
As for pharmaceutical materials, most of them are people with some kind of persecution complex, no, they are lives.
But, I don't know what kind of life it is...
Of course, it is also possible that it is a place used to treat diseases, and it also makes medicines by the way.
"But no matter what, the company is still as unethical as ever..."
Colin shook his head, glanced at the four or five injections, and honestly put them all into his pocket.
Although he is not yet a Fire Master and cannot find the so-called three "positive C-level", he has the opportunity to obtain the right to use it through "Ms. Rabbit", and he never knows when he will have the opportunity to use it.
After putting his things away, he looked around and began to prepare for bed.
"In a moment, come with me, Ash Saint, and sleep on the hospital floor at the back. Orange Cat will stay on this floor to make sure nothing happens to us. If anything goes wrong, you can wake us up."
Hearing this, Orange Cat was about to say that it was difficult to take on such a task, but Colin continued:
"Don't worry, I'll leave some preparations here. First, this 'Campfire Mark'. You can use it. Besides being a basic stand-in, it also allows you to use a small-scale, one-time 'Mad Fire'..."
Colin made three marks of this level, even adding "Flame Bearer's Grease" to them, which was extremely expensive...
Otherwise, this was originally meant for the people around him. If ordinary people didn't ignite the flames through the "grease of the fire holder" and directly used the "mad fire" on themselves, these employees would be burned to death by the "mad fire". There was no other way around it despite the high cost...
"'Insanity'?"
The orange cat looked confused, not quite sure what this thing was, but when he took the mark and saw the effect on it, he immediately exclaimed "Oh shit".
If this thing is used, it's like a fucking cheat!
If I can bring it back safely this time, wouldn't that be like having an extra temporary plug-in?
"If nothing had happened, could I..."
"Okay, consider it as a reward, but..."
Ke Lin saw through the boy's thoughts at a glance: "Remember, if you have serious trouble, use it directly, don't be reluctant."
"Okay." The orange cat felt the vague sense of terror and oppression, and nodded quickly.
"If you're unsure about the exact timing, you can listen to my maid..."
As they were talking, the two saw a cat-eared maid figure suddenly appear in the air, with an indifferent expression on her delicate face.
At the same time, Colin took out a piece of "firewood" made from high-level storage and lit a bonfire.
Bright orange-red flames instantly covered the entire room...
Then, Colin took out Shana's special "Sun Mark", and as his mind turned, layers of light began to seal and isolate the entire room.
"Brother Shunzi has so , it feels like he has endless tricks..."
Standing by and watching Colin continuously taking out various things, one or two people couldn't help but be amazed.
Finally, after arranging everything that could be arranged, Colin looked at him and said:
"With the mark, you can harness the power of this bonfire to a certain extent. If this still doesn't stop it, and your defenses are breached, and you feel you can't hold on any longer, wake me..."
Colin felt that this forced awakening might have a negative impact on the mental aspect.
But when that time comes, we won’t care about these minor aftereffects.
After all, the remaining means, even if it is a second-level containment object, can hold out for quite a while. If it still can't hold out, then he will have to deal with it himself...
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to withstand the direct attack from the second-level containment object on his body.
"It's a pity that I don't have a clone like Shana, otherwise I could send a clone in without any risk." Colin sighed in his heart.
"Okay." Orange Cat nodded.
After checking everything and making sure there were no mistakes or omissions, Colin tied up the "mental maniac" and threw him aside, then found a bed to lie down on.
Seeing this, the Holy Body of Ashes did not delay and found a place to lie down.
As elite employees of the company, it is very easy for both Colin and the Holy Body to sink into dreams on their own.
Soon, the room became quiet...
Seeing this, Orange Cat felt a little nervous. He glanced at the little maid standing beside Colin's bed and wanted to say a few words to ease the atmosphere, but seeing the other party's indifferent look, he finally did not speak and made himself boring.
However, before she had waited for more than ten seconds, the orange cat suddenly felt a chill...
An accident happened!
“Knock, knock, knock…”
A heavy and suppressed banging sound suddenly came from downstairs, as if something was knocking on the door.
The orange cat, holding the "bonfire mark", connected the mark with the bonfire, and vaguely conjured up some images in his mind...
In the elevator on the first floor, a figure in hospital gown, rotting all over and emitting a strong corpse stench, stood stiffly inside, banging his head against the elevator door again and again, making holes in it, as if trying to get out.
And in the distance, a thick, ink-like darkness spread...
In the dim light, the outlines of lifeless and strange figures were approaching little by little.
Terror is coming!
"Hiss, coming so fast..."
Even though he was in the campfire, the orange cat felt a bone-chilling chill enveloping him.
