A puzzle that only I can solve? Perhaps it has something to do with the pieces of the Doomsday puzzle... Bai Wu became interested.
The prompt I saw before returning to the tower last time was extremely torturous for someone who plays games to collect all the save files.
Although he didn't think Wujiu could kill all the evil in the area this time, he could at least find the puzzle pieces.
"It looks like a hospital, the Ninth Mental Hospital... What a strange name. Should we go in and take a look?" Wang Shi said.
"There are a lot of evil people in there... I'm a little scared." Shang Xiaoyi trembled, looking frightened.
Bai Wu glanced at Shang Xiaoyi, who seemed frightened, and the fluctuation of his watch was zero... This man was also an actor.
Wujiu looked around:
"The temperature is still quite comfortable, around 46 degrees. But we cannot rule out the possibility of rapid changes."
Well, it's okay for these freaks to call forty-six degrees a comfortable temperature.
"There is no blue line grass and minerals around. It should be an area close to the city." Yin Shuang said.
"Let's go in and take a look. This kind of scene is usually only found in the blue area." Wang Shi was eager to try.
White portals will most often teleport humans to areas rich in ore and blue grass.
The blue area is very likely to teleport people to a street in the city, or to crowded places such as cruise ships, amusement parks, hospitals, and factories.
The old iron door was covered with dust. When Wang Shi was about to push the door open, Bai Wu whispered:
"Be gentle."
"Tsk, you are so timid. If you are afraid, you can go back now. Don't attract the evil and hold us back." Lin Wurou said contemptuously.
Bai Wu ignored Lin Wu Rou. Based on past experience, his criticism of others would often cause them to have excessive negative emotions, so he decided not to do so.
Finally, Wujiu pushed the iron door slowly and gently.
"There are four medical buildings, each with about 19 floors. This is not a low-standard hospital, but the strange thing is that the location is a bit remote. I guess... there was something wrong with this hospital before the anomaly came."
Bai Wu now knows that seven hundred years ago, people entered the tower because of a sudden change in the world, but the cause of the change is unknown.
"There are four buildings. Which one should we explore first?" Wang Shi asked.
The group was only ten meters away from Medical Building No. 1.
Bai Wu's eyes swept across the entrance of the building.
The Ninth Mental Hospital is the most normal area. When leaders come for inspection or when people visit, most of them will be in this building. If they want to go to the second building, they have to go to the nineteenth floor and go through the sky corridor. This is naturally very troublesome, but don’t think that only the protagonists in horror movies love to commit suicide. Such people can be found everywhere in reality.
You have to go to the sky corridor on the 19th floor to enter the second building? What kind of absurd design is this
Any design that goes against common sense must have a reason. Bai Wu probably guessed that perhaps the owner of the hospital did not want anyone to go to the second building.
"We can only enter from the first building. It looks like there are four buildings here, but there is actually only one entrance." Bai Wu said.
The group took a look and found that it was true. Among the huge buildings, only the first one had an entrance on the ground floor.
Wujiu was surprised at Bai Wu's observation speed, and Lin Wu snorted coldly.
Yin Shuang observed her surroundings with an expressionless face.
Shang Xiaoyi's hands were trembling slightly, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose, with a somewhat perverted smile, but he tried his best to restrain himself:
"Captain... Captain, there are seven evil creatures in this building. It's so scary..."
Bai Wu resisted the urge to complain, and Shang Xiaoyi was clearly trying hard to suppress his excitement.
Wang Shi pushed open the glass door of the medical building.
The scene inside the medical building was so dirty and messy that it was hard to describe it. Medical records were scattered all over the floor.
The walls of the registration office were covered in blood, and some of the walls were painted with strange blood-red patterns.
What made Bai Wu curious was that these bloodstains and patterns looked very new. He looked at the patterns.
What are you looking at? Am I a psychopath? Are you a psychopath? Since neither you nor I are, why do you think I can analyze what this ghostly drawing is? But I can tell you that these bloodstains and scattered medical records were all made two days ago.
Made it two days ago? Is it a cover-up or a guide? The current clues don't seem to be enough to infer anything. I have to continue exploring.
The structure of the building is not complicated. Looking straight ahead, there is a deep corridor with various treatment rooms and lounges on both sides of the corridor.
The staircase is at the end of the corridor, and the elevator entrance is at the beginning of the corridor, which is next to the admission and discharge procedures office, and next to it is the registration desk.
In just a few seconds, Bai Wu roughly deduced the distribution of each layer.
There are a lot of rooms in this building. If we search every room on every floor, the workload will be too huge for the six of us.
What kind of hospital would need to build four 19-story medical buildings in a row? And why don’t the other buildings have entrances and exits on the first floor
Bai Wu made an inference.
This hospital... maybe it's a hospital on the surface, but it's actually used to detain certain things.
"How should we go?" Wang Shi asked.
Although he was walking in the front, Wujiu was still the brain of the entire team.
Wujiu looked directly at Bai Wu:
"What do you think?"
"There are many rooms in this building. If you search them one by one, you may be able to get some of the information you need. But the deepest secret is in the fourth building."
"How did you determine that?" Wujiu said.
"I'll only explain it once, next time please just trust me."
Yin Shuang unexpectedly discovered that Bai Wu was actually a little overbearing.
Wujiu didn't care, but Shang Xiaoyi's attention was on the elevator entrance. He heard some sound.
Bai Wu looked towards the elevator entrance and said:
"As you all noticed just now, of the four buildings, the first one has an entrance and exit. Just imagine, a normal hospital must have various emergency passages and convenient transportation. If a patient in the fourth building needs emergency treatment, he has to go from the ground floor to the nineteenth floor, then pass through the third building, the second building, and then come to the first building, and finally reach a certain level from the nineteenth floor of the first building."
"This also requires that the elevator is free and the hospital is not busy. If there are a lot of patients and nurses from other buildings need to be transferred to go from the fourth building to the first building, it will be even more time-consuming."
"At this time, even someone with indecisiveness can find a suitable reincarnation. Logically speaking, the structure here is very similar to a prison. There is only one main route for prisoners to escape, which can be easily controlled. And since it is a prison, the deepest part must be the fourth building."
Bai Wu changed the subject at this time and asked:
"I've always been curious about the world outside the tower. If no one has lived there for seven hundred years, then these city ruins and hospitals should have collapsed long ago. But why are some facilities still functioning normally?"
The fire hydrant we encountered before, and at this moment, a number suddenly lit up above the elevator door - seventeen.
After a few seconds, the number changed to sixteen.
fifteen.
fourteen.
Thirteen.
…
The elevator stopped on the eleventh floor for about twenty seconds, then continued to go down.
"I'm not sure. We've been to some areas before, such as the amusement park, and found that props would pop out from the haunted house from time to time, and the Ferris wheel would turn unconsciously. Some of the rules outside the tower are very strange... It's not just the space that changes." Wujiu explained.
Bai Wu nodded. This was a phenomenon that could not be explained by the current information, so it was temporarily classified as a setting.
"It seems we don't have to climb the stairs one level at a time." Bai Wu smiled.
There was an evil being hiding in the elevator, and all six of them had already seen it.
Bai Wu's expectations for Edo are academic. He is very curious about Edo's structure, and is mainly interested in its sensory organs, digestive system, and nerve network.
Shang Xiaoyi was also looking forward to it, but his expectation was purely violence and catharsis.
In contrast, it's like two different reactions to seeing a woman. The former is a smart gentleman who wants to understand the woman's preferences as soon as possible so as to control her mentally. The latter just wants to talk about it later.
The elevator stopped when the number on the door turned to one.
The moment the elevator door opened, Wang Shi very experiencedly held down Shang Xiaoyi, who had drooling mouth and red eyes.
At this moment, Shang Xiaoyi still looked shy. However, Shang Xiaoyi soon calmed down again.
The white mist only saw a flash of silver light, accompanied by a whistling wind. Then, a foul-smelling black liquid gushed out from the neck of the headless evil.
Wujiu stood at the elevator entrance and slowly put away his knife.
At a certain moment, Bai Wu had an illusion that Wujiu was already there and had never moved at all.
Bai Wu did not look at the decapitated Evil, but instead focused his gaze on Wu Jiu's sword:
The evil must die. It can add a sharp weapon that breaks defense and weakens the evil the moment it touches it. Of course, this effect is only effective against children. Facing a severely deformed evil, it depends on the skill of the knife user. Item spirit level: 19d.
The spirit-hosting level is nineteen days? Just talking about this knife, it is a treasure of great value.
Bai Wu remembered that Wujiu had set a record for surviving outside the tower for twenty-four days, so the knife should have been possessed by spirits on the fifth day. However, based on this calculation, the time the item possessed by spirits shown by the Eye of Prell should be the maximum value of a single time outside the tower, rather than the cumulative time. After all, it is impossible that Wujiu has only been out of the tower for nineteen days.
And just as he had speculated before, when he got outside the tower, he could see the combat power information of Wujiu and others.
Wujiu's companion force is level eight, stage four.
Although he is not clear about the concept, it seems that ordinary deformed evil falls are all walking experience pills for Wujiu.
The companion powers of Lin Wurou, Wang Shi, and Shang Xiaoyi are all around level five, which is still quite a distance away from level fifty-nine.
"The evil fall of the second-level distortion is nothing to be afraid of. Let's go to the 19th floor."
Wujiu, Wang Shi and others walked into the elevator.
Bai Wu did not rush in, but looked at Elu.
He first picked up E'duo's head from the ground, and then placed it on E'duo's neck with a calm face.
It's like putting together a figurine.
This evil creature was wearing a hospital gown and had chains on its feet. Its body shape was not much different from that of a human.
But the skin became like dried mud, with many cracks. The biggest change in the face was the mouth, which seemed to have mutated into the mouthparts of a mosquito, with sharp needles.
Although the limbs are still limbs, the hands can no longer be called hands but should be called claws.
It seems that the concept of secondary distortion means that the other party looks somewhat similar to humans.
Bai Wu touched the beast again and found that it had no lower body. No lower body means that there was no bulge or depression.
So this is the degeneration of things that are no longer necessary
A wicked person who must die because of evil is not alone, although his reputation was very bad before he became evil. If you want to know more detailed information, I suggest you touch his pocket.
Following the instructions in the notes, Bai Wu found a page of a diary from the torn hospital gown.
"I'm not depressed, I just owe a lot of money. That person told me that as long as I come here, no one can find me. But he lied to me! I try to find a way to come down every day. And the guy on the eleventh floor, she is so pitiful, will I become like her, will she be transferred to the second building? I just want to leave now... I just want to leave now... 2026.07.05."
The diary only has one page. But the content seems to have been written many times. Bai Wu has no doubt that the content of 2026.07.04 is also the above content. This is obsession, but in the end, only this page is left in the whole diary.
Through the tears and wrinkles on the corners, Bai Wu was able to outline the scene in which the patient hurriedly tore off the page and hid it when the doctor snatched the diary.
2026…
How long has it been since the present Tower Era 704
Is it some kind of rule that protects it? Many items in this world, including this diary page, seem to be indestructible in seven hundred years...
"Young man, are you ready? Everyone is waiting for you." Lin Wurou urged.
Bai Wu nodded. He had seen the contents of the diary before, so he did not take it away. Instead, he folded it and put it back into the pocket of Eduo's hospital gown.
After entering the elevator, he pressed eleven directly.
"Why do we have to go to the eleventh floor?" Wujiu asked.
"The danger level of the buildings behind may be beyond your expectations. There is a stronger evil hidden on the eleventh floor, which may be able to help us get a vaccination. At the same time, we can find some useful information." Bai Wu said seriously.
"It's just a white area. No matter how powerful it is, how powerful can it be?" Lin Wu Rou argued as usual.
"If you don't go into this hospital, there will be no danger, but I advise Sister Lin that you better be careful."
The eleventh floor was soon reached.
After the elevator door opened, Wujiu took out a flashlight and shone it into the dark corridor.
Just as Bai Wu expected, the structure of this floor was basically entirely rooms used to imprison patients, with only two doctors' offices in the corner.
There wasn't even a shared bathroom, and each room had its own bathroom. It was almost the same structure as the prisons Bai Wu knew.
"whee."
A creepy laugh suddenly sounded. Wujiu frowned.
Wang Shi slowed down his pace:
"The sound came from the room at the end. Everyone be careful..."
Lin Wurou did not refute Wang Shi's caution. Ever since the elevator door opened, he had a feeling of being targeted by a hunter.
It's like there are a pair of eyes in the darkness.
"You came to play with me... I'm here."
With longing and resentment, it was like whispering in one's ear. Lin Wurou, Wang Shi, Shang Xiaoyi and others had all experienced many battles, but the more such people were, the more they understood that the evil in this building was not simple.
"Aren't you coming to see me? I've been waiting for you for a long time..."
At the end of the corridor, a woman's cry was heard. The voice sounded like a little girl, but also like an adult, as if the voices of two different ages and emotions were intertwined.
Bai Wu kept observing the surroundings, but there was no useful information in the notes.
When we were about to reach the end of the corridor, something unexpected happened.
A dark and overly thin arm suddenly emerged from the ceiling and grabbed Yin Shuang directly!
Silver light flashed again, and Wujiu drew his sword very quickly, cutting off the arm in an instant. The moment the blade touched the arm, his expression changed, and he whispered:
"You guys stand back. Try to stay calm."
Wujiu calmly concluded that the arm suddenly stretched out from the ceiling because someone in his group was emotionally unstable.
But what surprised him even more was that this evil creature was of a high level, at least not something that could be killed instantly.
Things did not calm down as quickly as Wujiu had expected. Many black hands stretched out from the ceiling one after another.
The most attacks were on Yin Shuang, the least on Wujiu, while the attacks on Lin Wurou, Shang Xiaoyi, and Wang Shi were about the same.
As for Bai Wu... he seemed to be ignored by this evil creature who was as powerful as Robin and kept attacking.
He stood alone in the middle of the corridor, watching Wujiu and others chop off the arm...
He had already guessed what was going on.
When they entered the floor just now, the mournful female voice in the air caused several people to feel slightly emotional.
This kind of vibration is very subtle. If it were any other kind of evil, it would be impossible to sense it, but this level of evil is very special.
Lin Wurou's watch value is 11, Wang Shi's watch value is 9, Shang Xiaoyi's eyes are excited, and the watch value is 7.
Wujiu's watch value is 3. Yin Shuang is relatively the most feared among the few people, with a watch value of 21.
These are actually values within the normal range and are far from the danger line.
It's just that the evil spirits encountered this time... seem to be very rare. They can sense the presence of prey with just a slight emotional fluctuation. Often, such evil spirits are also extremely powerful.
Fortunately, although the incident happened quickly, the strength of those people was very strong and there was no danger. They just dealt with it hastily.
These hands seem to be endless...
Lin Wurou glanced at Bai Wu in surprise and asked doubtfully:
"How come you... won't be attacked."
Bai Wu raised his watch, which had a value of 0, with a blank expression:
"I even felt a little sleepy..."
"… "
Lin Wurou now knew why the captain arranged Bai Wu to be the sixth man. This man was incredibly courageous...
Wujiu's figure was blurry, and there was even an afterimage of him in the corridor:
"Bai Wu, just stay there and don't move. We'll be ready soon."
"It's hard to say. Before you calm down completely, I'm afraid these hands will continue to reach out. I'm going to take a look ahead, maybe I can solve the source. After you calm down, just follow me."
Bai Wu turned around and fixed his eyes on the door of the third room at the end.
11-19. You think there is evil in there? Actually there is nothing in there. You are dealing with... just some thoughts it has. It has been moved to the fourth building. But you can go in and take a look. There are things that you and the dwarf are interested in.
