The Last Gentleman

Chapter 278: Nightmare Exploration

Views:

Hippocrates Hospital

Four gentlemen sitting in wheelchairs, wearing special ventilators on their faces and with tubes inserted in the back of their necks and wrists, are confined in an isolation room and are conducting a "nightmare exploration (trial)".

Outside the isolation room,

The old dean Gregory Arauz, the deputy dean Andrea Vesalius and other important figures in the hospital were standing outside and monitoring the whole process.

Two of the elite gentlemen selected this time are currently interning in the hospital and are preparing to take the doctor assessment next month.

After they took the initiative to ask to participate in the nightmare exploration, the hospital also promised that as long as they could come back alive and bring back useful information, they would be exempted from the comprehensive doctor's assessment and only needed to verify the most basic doctor's skills to obtain the certificate.

However.

After half an hour,

The detectors, which had been relatively stable, sounded the alarm at the same time, and the four people restrained in wheelchairs began to twitch violently.

vomit!

The four people vomited at the same time, and a large amount of inky dirt poured out of their bodies, just enough to stain the one-way glass of the isolation room black and cover the hidden camera.

At the same time, the detection equipment connected to them also lost contact.

The sudden situation caused the hospital to instantly lose surveillance of the isolation room. The old director stood up, wrapped his whole body in clothes, and prepared to lead the team to intervene.

There was a noise inside the isolation room. Someone actually started to clean the glass, slowly wiping away the vomit ink that was stained on the single-sided glass.

The tools used to clean the glass are very special.

A gentleman inside who wanted to apply to be a doctor tore off his face skin completely and used it as a rag. He was slowly wiping a black and weird smiling face on the one-way glass. He also tilted his head and smiled, as if he was greeting the people outside.

The other people in the room also had strange expressions and were trying to leave the isolation room.

Five minutes passed.

After confirming that they could not escape the isolation room or spread the nightmare, the four of them turned their heads at the same time and stared at the people behind the one-way glass.

Pah! Their eyeballs slid down almost at the same time and fell to the ground, and then nightmare tentacles squeezed out from their eye sockets.

Soon after, there were signs of tentacles growing from the nose, mouth, and ear holes.

Just at this moment.

A specially made death gas poured into the room from the cracks in the wall. The gentlemen who were contaminated by the gas began to wither and die, eventually turning into a pool of pus.

This gas is the product of Vice President Vesalius and is usually used in emergency situations when studying patients. When it is found that the patient is seriously out of control and there is a possibility of escape, this gas will be released to wipe out everything.

At that moment, it was determined that the nightmare tester was hopeless, and worried that the old dean might be contaminated by the nightmare substance if he stepped directly into it, so he released the substance to eliminate the hidden danger.

"The loss of four 'elite gentlemen' at once is too high a price to pay..." The old dean took off his sunglasses and rubbed his eye sockets vigorously as he looked at the miserable situation in the isolation room.

"What's the situation at other testing sites? Is it the same as here?"

The staff responsible for contacting the outside world immediately responded:

"At the Gethsemane test site, one of the participants showed a strong abnormal reaction five minutes after entering the dream, so the dream test was immediately interrupted.

Two of the dreamers at the city wall test point were attacked by nightmares, but they were isolated individually. The attacked gentleman was directly eliminated, and the remaining two were still exploring the dreamland in a normal state.

The situation at the fabric workshop test point was the same as ours, with all of them dead.

There is also a temporary test point set up at the power station... The three dreamers are in a stable state and are conducting effective nightmare exploration. "

"Hmm? When did the power station set up a test site? Who is the person in charge? Who are the three testers... Is this the Frankenstein created by the power station?"

"It was transferred from the college testing site. The responsible persons are Principal Deslin and Director Celestine. As for the testers, their information has just been updated."

When the old dean took the tester's information, his face changed.

"William... isn't he the survivor of the nightmare? There is also a young executioner and the director of the power station. What is their relationship with William?"

"The three of them were once a team and participated in the relic incident at Holy Grail Mountain together. Oh, right! Their perceptions all reached their limits before their breakthroughs, and they all had multiple attribute breakthroughs."

These words made the old dean frown.

"This woman, Deslin, is really reckless, using such a valuable talent for the initial exploration.

If there is any situation at the power station, notify me immediately."

"yes."

Power Station (Dream)

After Yi Chen killed Jin's dream illusion and tasted the perfect massacre for the first time, he did not linger for long.

He glanced at the gentleman's suit hanging in the dressing room, and because he didn't get any response from the yellow skin, he swung his hand knife and cut the suit in half.

hiss~

Sure enough, the gentleman's clothing that was cut immediately scattered into tentacles and died.

Yi Chen cut the wall with his backhand again, and all he felt was the texture of a mixture of stone and metal, but there was nothing wrong with the environment, which meant that not everything was made of nightmare matter.

"Nightmare matter is limited and is often used to disguise objects that are more familiar to me.

Little Grape, are you still there? "

As Yi Chen shouted, an eye grew in his brain and began to look around. At the same time, Yi Chen's vision was also enhanced.

"Wow! Is this a nightmare? The details of the environment are exactly the same as reality. If I can't find the inconsistency in the first place and can't complete my self-awareness, I will really be trapped in it forever.

However, it is still a bit difficult to penetrate your brain, and it is inevitable that flaws will be exposed. "

"Little Grape, can you see anything?"

"I can't see anything strange for now. How do you plan to explore?"

"There's no rush to formulate an exploration plan. This is the first time we've actively intervened in a nightmare. Let's just wander around and wait until we've collected enough intelligence before considering how to explore further."

Yi Chen walked out of the fitting room.

Principal Deslin and others who should have been in the control room were all gone, the lights were dim, and with the visual aid provided by Little Grape, an inky substance could be seen floating sporadically in the environment.

Walking out of the sleeping room and into the external passage, the environment was equally gloomy, but a 'person' could be seen wherever one looked.

A power station employee was standing in front of the door at the end of the corridor, banging his face against the columnar facial recognition device.

You can even see teeth scattered all over the floor, a broken tongue, and thick blood on the face.

He didn't react at all to Yi Chen's gradual approach.

Little Grape could only see a faint inky luster on this person, which was far inferior to the Jin who was killed in the locker room and the cut-off clothes.

Just as Yi Chen's right hand condensed into a black axe shape and approached cautiously.

When the two were three meters apart, the other party suddenly gathered strength and hit him in the face with great force... Ka! The whole face was sunken and merged with the identification panel.

It's weird.

bite!

The identifier actually worked, and the security door leading to the next area was opened.

"Are you actively luring me to other areas?"

Yi Chen squatted down slightly and searched out an "identity card" from the employee's clothing room with a broken face. He glanced at the dead man's face. Although the whole face was sunken, he could vaguely see a smiling face.

Keep the ID card and continue to go deeper.
