Hippocrates Hospital

It is the origin of clinics, the place for selecting doctors, and the center for sorting, analyzing and storing disease information. It is also the area with the highest level of organized medical care.

Even internal staff can only enter and exit the hospital during designated time periods.

If outsiders want to set foot in the hospital, they need to go through various cumbersome procedures and layers of approval.

However, Yi Chen, who was standing in front of the gate, was immediately led into the courtyard after he showed a special business card to the guard, and there was even a security guard to lead the way for him.

"Vice President Vesalius has told us that if you come to his house, you need to be taken to his office building immediately. We will handle the relevant procedures later."

"It's troublesome."

Disease Center

A huge, sealed white square building. When you get close to it, you can feel obvious magnetic field shielding. This white building material itself has a strong shielding effect.

Information about disease progression between organizations, different types of symptoms, pathological research conducted by gentleman doctors, important documents and reports, etc., are all collected in the form of books.

It is rumored that most of the patients captured alive were imprisoned here and studied by the death doctors led by Vesalius.

The building has no obvious entrances or exits, just black door-shaped frames painted on some white walls.

At the signal of the security guard, Yi Chen approached one of the black frames and immediately felt a special force field sweeping over his body and heard a radio voice:

"Special visitor William Behrens, data has been backed up, green pass!

Please follow the arrows on the ground to go to Vice President Andrea Vesalius' office. Do not deviate from the instructions on the way, otherwise you will be isolated. "

The black door frame disappeared temporarily, and Yi Chen immediately stepped into it.

Between the equally white passages, green arrow symbols appear on the ground, providing directional reminders through gradual changes.

After a long detour,

The passage gradually changed from white to black, and finally came to the so-called office, or more precisely, the "collection room", which was filled with the smell of death of various creatures mixed together.

Ordinary gentlemen and even apprentices who come here need to wear isolation suits and special masks in advance, otherwise their bodies will age faster if they are exposed to such an environment for a long time.

Yi Chen, on the contrary, felt a sense of homecoming, and even felt that the air here was "fresher" than anywhere else in Zion. He took several deep breaths, and wisps of black smoke of death appeared in his orifices.

“My office is pretty good, isn’t it

Once you break through the limit and obtain a medical license, you can set up an office next door with the same decoration style, and then connect it to my end through experimental equipment. The atmosphere of death will not be much different. "

Doctor Vesalius' voice came from the side. He was still wearing the bird-beak mask and standing in front of the corpse tank in his office.

It is similar to a fish tank, but it is more than ten times larger and covers almost the entire wall.

It is filled with a transparent liquid that can effectively preserve quality and prevent pathogens. The bodies of various rare and diseased creatures either sink to the bottom, hang on the rockery, or float on the water.

In addition to the corpse vats, there are also various corpse specimens hanging on the walls.

In the corner of the office in the very center stood a two-meter-long iron nail with various heads on it. Although each head had a different shape, their mouths were open, constantly exuding the breath of death.

Yi Chen did not directly answer whether he wanted to be a doctor, but said: "That's great~ Vice President Vesalius, by the way, which door is behind you?"

"The secret passage leads directly to my studio. I spend most of my working time there. I need to deal with many dead people on weekdays and use their bodies to explore the nature of death medicine.

Are you interested in being a doctor?"

Visali asked about the doctor for the second time, and Yi Chen could no longer get away with it.

"Well... I have already promised the First Gentleman to be her candidate. If I am not elected, we will talk about it later."

Yi Chen's answer caused Visari to remain silent for a moment. Under his bird-beak mask, he spoke in a serious tone that was different from usual: "Was it your own subjective choice, or was it forced by the First Gentleman?"

"I wanted to do this myself."

"Are you willing to sacrifice for the continuation of human civilization?"

Yi Chen shook his head and said with embarrassment: "I don't have such a great ambition, I just want to use my identity as the first gentleman to negotiate directly with the leather field and get more knowledge about leather.

More for myself.”

"Are you serious? You should know what it takes to become the first gentleman, right?"

"That's right."

The metal eye sockets on the bird-beak mask stared at Yi Chen's eyes. After getting a definite answer, Dr. Vesalius waved for him to come closer.

"Did you bring anything?"

"I brought it, but I used up two syringes before, so I don't know if it's enough." Yi Chen put 3/4 bottle of Dusk Silver Liquid on the desk.

"If you are sure you want to achieve a breakthrough here, I can replenish the amount of secret medicine for you even if it is not enough... Anyway, I have a personal collection of many secret medicines related to death.

I still have three bottles of "Dusk Silver Liquid" here, which is more than enough for you."

"good."

"Come with me. We have prepared a special area suitable for you to break through. No one will disturb you."

The Dead Studio

It was like a small workshop, with various operating tables, hydraulic tanks, and colorful solutions placed on the side. In addition, there were many death apprentices wearing beak-like masks, dissecting, transforming, and even squeezing juice from the dead.

When Vesalius arrived, they all stopped what they were doing and bowed.

Instead of stopping, they continued to move deeper into the laboratory, and even had to ask Vesalius to open a disc combination lock himself.

Hiss hiss hiss!

Three hydraulic doors of different structures opened one after another. After passing through a narrow and long passage that even required turning sideways, a pungent smell hit us in the face.

What appeared before our eyes was an 'indoor swimming pool'.

However, the water in the pool was completely black, bubbling, and even had some dark golden oil spots. One could even see some skin tissue, fingernails, and hair floating on the water.

But Yi Chen did not feel disgusted. Instead, saliva flowed from the corners of his mouth and he quickly wiped it away with his sleeve.

He even couldn't wait to jump into the swimming pool and suck up the liquid in it.

"Thank you, Vice President! By the way, is this the death convergence point of the entire building?"

"Yes, I am used to collecting the essence that overflowed from the bodies of the dead, as well as the essence that remained during the experiments... Here is a full ten years' worth of it."

“Can I really use it?”

"You can use it however you want as long as you can use it. Anyway, I only use it occasionally to make tea, take a bath, etc., and I can't use it all by myself.

Come in quickly, and when you are completely in the "diaphragm state", I will come in and inject you with the secret medicine."

Yi Chen nodded and fell into the water with a standard action. When his head floated out of the water, Dr. Vesalius had left temporarily.

Yi Chen was not in a hurry. He first used the cloth straw derived from his clothes to drink a sufficient amount of liquid, allowing his whole body to be filled with the breath of death. When everything was ready, he took out the golden box.

"Hoo! Let's get started..."

At this moment,

Even Yi Chen couldn't help but feel his heart beating faster.

Open the golden box, pick up the biomass brain inside, and lean towards the center of the eyebrows following the mysterious sensation.

The solid epileptic brain actually created ripples when it touched the scalp, penetrating directly into the cranial cavity and combining with Yi Chen's own brain.

Epilepsy

A dark ancient script arranged in a tube appeared before my eyes.

In the blink of an eye, Yi Chen, who should have been soaked in the death slime, was already floating hundreds of meters in the air.

The surrounding environment has become an open world full of tumors, overflowing with pus, and fluttering tentacles of disease. There are even a large number of strange-looking infected people living a weird life here.

"Is this... the old world before it was blocked? These patients are the former residents of the old world... They seem to be unable to see me."

Just when Yi Chen wanted to examine his condition, he found that he had no hands at all, not even a torso or a brain.

He turned into a nano-scale shell virus, to be more precise it should be called "epilepsy shell".
