Third floor.
When Jie Fangcheng rushed up, he could no longer see Qi Chanyang, only the red light.
The entire third floor was eerily quiet, as if Jie Fangcheng was trapped in something. Not only could he not hear any other sounds, even his own footsteps seemed far away when he walked in the corridor.
Jie Fangcheng put his hands to his mouth and made a trumpet shape.
"Hello! Is anyone there?!"
Even the voices of those shouting were muffled.
Jie Fangcheng scratched his head, walked to the first room, and kicked the door open.
After he went up the stairs on the first day, he swept all the way and searched the entire room on the third floor. When he revisited the place now, Jie Fangcheng exclaimed "Huh".
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that the room seemed newer than the first day he came here.
At that time, Jie Fangcheng had covered the entire house in blood, making it look like a murder scene... It doesn't have to be like that, it just was.
But at this time, the bloodstains in the room disappeared, and even the operating bed returned to its original state.
At that time, Jie Fangcheng used the bed as a grenade, and it was crushed into a ball. It doesn't look like it can be restored to its current state.
Changed the bed
Jie Fangcheng couldn't figure it out.
But it doesn’t matter. If you have something you can’t figure out, you can just let someone else figure it out!
He walked quickly out of the room, leaving the door wide open behind him.
The night rules seen in Ward No. 4 also appeared on the wall of the third floor at some point. Not only that, the middle rule "Please close the door and keep the room airtight" seemed to be bolded.
Jie Fangcheng took a look and continued walking forward as if he didn't see it.
Soon, he opened all the doors on the third floor, but still did not find Qi Chanyang.
But he was sure of one thing.
The room on the third floor was indeed a little newer than the one he saw when he first arrived.
Does the dean have the leisure to renovate the room
Thinking of this, Jie Fangcheng quickly walked to the stairs.
He was just about to go to the second floor to meet Gu Shanshan when he saw out of the corner of his eye a figure flash by on the first floor.
Apparently, the only one still hanging around outside at this time was Qi Chanyang.
Qi Chanyang was climbing the stairs so fast. If Jie Fangcheng had climbed the stairs slowly, Qi Chanyang would probably have disappeared when he climbed down.
Jie Fangcheng said nothing.
He stomped his foot hard, and with a loud bang that echoed throughout the hospital, the steel and concrete floor quickly cracked and a hole appeared.
Jie Fangcheng fell down the hole.
There happened to be an outpatient clinic below, and Jie Fangcheng and a pile of debris fell onto the bed. After hearing Gu Shanshan say that the two beds belonged to Han Qi and He Xin, Jie Fangcheng did not feel any burden at all and continued to exert force on his feet.
This time, probably because of the bed supporting it, half of the outpatient room fell down along with Jie Fangcheng.
"Cough cough cough..." Jie Fangcheng coughed and quickly walked towards the figure he had just seen from the ruins.
But the first floor was also extremely quiet, and no sound of fighting could be heard at all.
Jie Fangcheng couldn't help but mutter, "Where's the person? Could he be dead?"
He followed the same method and opened the doors of all the rooms in the left corridor on the first floor, but still there was no sign of Qi Chanyang.
Where has this been
Jie Fangcheng was puzzled.
Xie Fangcheng happened to pass by the security room, walked in, and found that tomorrow's evening paper had already been delivered.
He stuffed the newspaper directly into his clothes and walked a few steps to the badminton hall next to the security room. As soon as he opened the door, something flew out of the badminton hall.
Jie Fangcheng took a closer look and was overjoyed and shocked: "Why are you here? Why are you like this?"
The person in front of him could no longer be recognized. Qi Chanyang's hair was draped over his body like seaweed, and his body was like a centipede, with several legs growing from his waist, and he lay on the ground while moving.
But the newly grown legs did not obey him, as if something was chasing him. He tried hard to move forward, but the newly grown legs were dragging him back.
Then there was a sound of broken bones, and Qi Chanyang was smashed into the wall by something.
Jie Fangcheng couldn't see, so he could only pick up the stick and wave it in the air around Qi Chanyang as he walked towards him.
"Don't you have that shadow? Let it out, I..."
Before he finished speaking, Xie Fangcheng suddenly exerted force on his waist and bent his body to 90 degrees.
Qi Chanyang's "Gift from Whale Fall" passed over his body dangerously, and then chopped down and hit Fang Cheng's stick.
Xie Fangcheng maintained a 90-degree sideways posture with a stick in his right hand.
He looked at Qi Chanyang and shouted, "Hey! Wake up!"
The bone spur in Qi Chanyang's hand retreated slightly, bypassed Jie Fangcheng's stick, and chopped again horizontally. Jie Fangcheng pushed the ground with one foot, turned over around his bone spur, and frowned.
Qi Chanyang looks like he has been completely alienated.
That Gu Shanshan on the second floor...
Before he could figure it out, Qi Chanyang was knocked away by the invisible dean.
no solution anymore.
Jie Fangcheng exerted force suddenly and rushed in front of Qi Chanyang.
When Qi Chanyang raised the weapon again, Jie Fangcheng hit him on the head with a stick.
Because this man had been strengthened six times by the system, Jie Fangcheng was afraid of beating him to death but also afraid that he would not faint, so he used a little force.
Qi Chanyang's head slammed against the wall, making a hole in it, and then bounced back like a spring. His neck went limp and he fainted.
His original limbs had already drooped, but the newly grown legs were flapping wildly. Jie Fangcheng raised his stick and smashed them one by one, then clamped the man under his armpit. He swung the iron rod back and forth in front of and behind his body with his right hand, feeling that if he swung it faster it could be used as the paddles of a helicopter. He then quickly walked up to the second floor.
Second floor.
Gu Shanshan was lying on the ground, holding her stomach. There was a big bump in front of her and on her back. The "monster" with a hunched back and long arms hanging on the ground had its back to her and was standing in front of her.
Not far away, Patient No. 6 was knocked to the ground with wounds on his body turned outward, but not a drop of blood flowed out, and Sun Miao was in the corner, his life or death unknown.
This was all done by the "monster" in front of us.
Just after Jie Fangcheng left, Sun Miao rushed up first, and his long nails instantly scratched Gu Shanshan's abdomen.
But after seeing the blood, Sun Miao paused and a look of pain appeared on his face.
"Can't... kill people..."
Updated the last one from Night Rules: In a mental hospital, sometimes the patients are scarier than the doctors.
After this, Gu Shanshan had some expectations about the current situation.
She rolled out of the room and rushed towards the stairs, shouting as she ran.
But this time, the sound of her shouting seemed to be wrapped in something and could not be transmitted at all.
Oops!
Just as he was thinking this, Patient No. 6 reacted and came out from the open door. He was faster than Sun Miao and without hesitation, he rushed to Gu Shanshan and slapped her with his huge hand.
Gu Shanshan rolled on the ground and her arm was grazed and broken instantly.
The more times like this, the calmer she becomes.
"Wang He!" Gu Shanshan called out No. 6's name. No. 6's palm paused, and he showed some reaction to the name.
But it was just a slight reaction. Seeing No. 6's hand raised again, Gu Shanshan hurriedly continued, "Do you still remember Han Fangfang?"
"Fang Fang..." A light suddenly appeared in No. 6's originally chaotic eyes, "Go home... Fang Fang..."
it works!
Gu Shanshan covered her bleeding abdomen and tried to wake him up.
"Yes, you have already told Han Fangfang that you will return after you recover from your illness. She is still waiting for you at home."
"Yes... I want to go home..."
Wang He's hands slowly dropped.
Gu Shanshan took a deep breath to suppress the intense nausea caused by the pain.
She glanced at the wall on the second floor.
The night rules originally posted on the corridor on the second floor have also been changed to new night rules, with a countdown of 26.
She didn't know what the countdown meant, but it was obvious that in half an hour either they would be dead or the copy would end.
Time was running out. Even though she knew it might anger Wang He, Gu Shanshan still spoke up: "So why didn't you go back? Is your illness not healed yet?"
When mentioning this matter, Wang He suddenly became angry.
"They lied to me! They said they were going to cure me! They just wanted to use me for experiments!! That guy lied to me too! He said it! Today is the last day!!"
"What last day?" Gu Shanshan asked hurriedly.
"The last day to become a monster... He said so! He said he would convince Dr. Ge... He couldn't do it!! He said he would let the dean die! He couldn't do it either!! He said he would set us free!!!"
Wang He clenched his fist in anger and smashed it against the wall.
"He can't do anything!! But he insists on giving us hope!!!"
"He said he would convince Ge Juan? Will Ge Juan agree to let you go?"
Wang He thought of something and the angry expression on his face eased a lot.
"Dr. Ge used to be... a good person."
Suddenly, Gu Shanshan thought of the hospital brochure. The introduction under Ge Juan's photo said that she had been the most popular among patients for three consecutive years.
All the things that were wrong quickly connected in her mind.
According to Qi Chanyang, the copy will give every player a chance to survive.
But if all the players entering this dungeon are novices, they will not be able to compete with the patient NPC without taking medicine. Even an old player like Qi Chanyang will find it difficult to deal with Patient No. 1.
At that time, Gu Shanshan said that according to the normal way of clearing the level, there should be NPCs standing on their side to provide them with support.
However, if the patient NPC does not take the medicine, he will become alienated, and if he takes the medicine, he will fall into a deep sleep, so he obviously cannot become a support.
Liu Hanxi... He should be the dean's son. Ordinary patient NPCs, including Liu Hanyue, did not show any characteristics that could be connected to the sludge, but he and the dean could both control the sludge.
Considering that Ge Juan is divorced, it is very likely that... Liu Hanyue is the child of Ge Juan and her ex-husband, and Liu Hanxi is the child of Ge Juan and the dean.
Although Liu Hanyue was willing to help the players, the help she could provide was very limited.
Liu Hanxi didn't believe them at all.
The players have been trying hard to find clues during this period. If the clues were not destroyed together, they found the clue of Wang He and Han Fangfang as if they had found a fish that had slipped through the net. Then there is another possibility.
Wang He’s clue is insignificant in the chain of clues.
More importantly, the clues that determine whether you can pass the copy are in the copy.
If this clue is the real Ge Juan, everything will make sense.
Assuming that a team of new players enters the dungeon, the real Ge Juan with a conscience will become the object they can strive for.
She is a doctor. She knows how to prevent NPCs from alienating and falling asleep. She may even know how to prevent NPCs from losing their minds after alienating.
Then players don't need to take medicine at night and win the trust and support of the patient NPC.
At the same time, she is Liu Hanxi's mother, and Liu Hanxi obviously has love for her.
Liu Hanyue hated her—this further explains why the real Ge Juan should be in this copy.
If the real Ge Juan is in the copy, the difficulty of the copy should be in eliminating the "misunderstanding" between Ge Juan and Liu Hanyue.
The real Ge Juan loves her daughter very much. Even if she hopes that her son can regain his eyesight and see the light again, why should she let her daughter sacrifice her eyes
Look at the other doctors in this copy. Han Qi has a bunch of teeth implanted in his body, He Xin’s broken leg can be reattached, and even the security guard in the security room can have a lower body that is not human.
Their transplant technology is already very mature, and there is no need to ask relatives to donate their eyes.
She must have had to do this for a reason... Was she forced by the dean
Thinking about it more carefully, the skeletons on the bookshelf in the reading room, the ring engraved with the dean's name, and the normal people among the key patient NPCs... This copy seems to be built around Ge Juan.
But now, this most important NPC is a fake, an inferior product that dares not face Liu Hanyue at all.
is it possible
Without such a key NPC, how did the players who cleared the level complete it? If someone can clear the level with a high survival rate, why is the clearance rate of all the players behind so terribly low
In other words, it is because that team of players cleared the dungeon that the following players can no longer clear it.
Someone took Ge Juan out of the copy!
This dungeon cannot be cleared by the usual method of finding clues! They can't find it!!
"Brother Jie..."
Maybe Jie Fangcheng's method is the most correct!
Tear it down! Tear it all down!!
Countdown: 20.
At this moment, No. 6, who had just been awakened a little by a name, returned to confusion again.
He staggered and raised his hand.
“Liberation… liberation!”
As he spoke, No. 6 clapped his hands again.
Gu Shanshan gritted her teeth and tried to roll over again.
But it doesn't work.
The wound in her abdomen had completely left her without the strength to resist.
No... We need to inform Brother Jie... and have him take all the copy information out...
But the slap as big as a palm fan had already come down.
Gu Shanshan tried to move forward a little bit.
But... it's no use.
Gu Shanshan knew very well that she couldn't avoid this slap.
what to do
In front of her, the wind created by the slap had already blown in front of her. It was just wind, but Gu Shanshan could not bear it and her nose was bleeding.
Finished…
At this moment, a long, thick and bloated arm suddenly rushed out from behind No. 6 and punched No. 6.
Gu Shanshan was startled: "Xiaoqin..."
The patient NPC and the players who took the medicine have all been transformed. Sun Miao has only taken two pills and now can't tell friend from foe. Lu Xiaoqin took two and a half pills. Why...
Number Six roared and started to wrestle with Lu Xiaoqin behind him.
Lu Xiaoqin's degree of alienation is even greater, and she is even stronger than No. 6. She can hardly be recognized as a human being anymore, and looks more like an orangutan.
But she had just learned how to control her body to wrestle with others, and she was already injured. At this time, she was slapped several times by No. 6, and only after a large amount of blood burst out of her body did she knock No. 6 aside.
Before she could catch her breath, a hand with long nails pierced her chest.
Lu Xiaoqin let out a scream, but Gu Shanshan, who was very close to her, heard it and felt that the scream was extremely far away.
She and Lu Xiaoqin seemed to be divided into two worlds.
Lu Xiaoqin roared and pounced on Sun Miao. It was also the first time for Sun Miao to control the body of this monster to attack others. He was quickly slapped into the corner by Lu Xiaoqin.
After finally dealing with the two of them, Lu Xiaoqin slumped on the ground with her back to Gu Shanshan.
"Xiaoqin...Aren't you alienated?"
Lu Xiaoqin shook her head: "It's alienated. I took half a pill given by Brother Jie."
What she didn't say was that she didn't have to eat it.
Lu Xiaoqin lived in the ward with Patient No. 1. After being alienated, Patient No. 1 did not attack her who was also in an alienated state.
Everyone wants to live, and Lu Xiaoqin is no exception.
But she heard Number Six's roar outside.
Lu Xiaoqin is timid, but not stupid.
She tried hard to use her slow brain, thinking slowly, and finally figured it out.
Brother Qi also took two pills like them. He also wanted to be alienated. Alienated NPCs will not attack each other.
Brother Jie will not be transformed, but he hits people very quickly. The opponent will be almost dead with one hit from the stick. He will not have this kind of powerful and angry roar.
Only... Shanshan is left.
Something must have happened that left Shanshan alone.
Lu Xiaoqin was about to open the door and go out.
The alienated No. 1 wrapped his hair around the door and stared at her.
"No... the dean will be angry."
"no… "
Lu Xiaoqin stretched out her hand, but her mind was in a mess, and unlike Qi Chanyang, her body had not yet formed a combat consciousness. As long as No. 1's hair was slightly entangled in her, she was completely unable to resist.
You need to be strong... Go save Shanshan!
Lu Xiaoqin took out the half pill.
And Gu Shanshan is so smart. After she finished speaking, she immediately realized that she had taken half a pill to save herself.
As long as players take three pills, they will enter a special side quest dungeon, where there is almost no chance of survival.
"Xiaoqin!"
Lu Xiaoqin smiled and said, "I've been reminded. There are still five minutes left."
[I regret to inform you that you have taken an overdose of medication and your body is about to collapse. ]
[Please accept my condolences.]
[Countdown: 4:49]
Gu Shanshan moved her lips.
Lu Xiaoqin, who had been very scared since entering the copy, now had greatly increased strength due to taking medicine. Not only that, she already felt that she was merging with the copy. The terrible things in the past seemed commonplace in her eyes, as if she had lived in this place for a long time.
Lu Xiaoqin quickly reported the current information to Gu Shanshan. "I feel now that these NPC patients are the same as me. When I see them, it's like seeing humans. But even though I have my back to you, I can still feel you. Because you and I are not the same. Sister Shanshan, I don't know how to describe it to you..."
"I know." Gu Shanshan quickly replied, "It's like a river. We are on both sides now."
"Yes." Lu Xiaoqin smiled. Her voice became hoarse and dry. She paused from time to time while speaking, sounding very similar to the patient NPCs. "This medicine makes me feel sleepy after taking one or two tablets. But after taking the third tablet, my mind is very clear now."
Like a last glimmer of light.
Lu Xiaoqin's nose twitched: "Sister Shanshan, do you smell... a smell of burning things?"
Gu Shanshan sniffed hard and her nostrils were filled with the smell of blood, but there was no smell of burning.
Lu Xiaoqin said, "It may be hysteria. When I look around now, I feel that everything around me is curved... How should I put it, it's like looking through fire."
After saying this, without waiting for Gu Shanshan to speak, Lu Xiaoqin suddenly stood up.
"Something is coming."
She whispered, her expression wary.
The next second, Gu Shanshan also saw what Lu Xiaoqin saw.
