The ward started running like a wound-up clock. Nurses and doctors took their positions and pushed the three players out of their respective wards.
As Yuki and Shiina Hiwa discussed, since it is a murder for money, of course the money should be put first, and the best way is to perform surgery directly.
Then the game only gives half a day's treatment money. According to this rule, the hospital must hurry up, otherwise what should they do if they can't afford the money after eighteen hours?
This foreshadowing is hidden in every ward on the 9th floor, and in the kneeling parents of the boy in the car accident that Yuki saw with his own eyes.
3pm.
Yuki glanced at the electronic clock and breathed a sigh of relief. There were still three hours left before this strategy route would be useless. Without the healing money, the plot would not move forward.
"If that Robert comes, he might be able to capture him easily, and he might just spend money and leave."
He suddenly thought of that rich guy. The feature of 'money copy' was simply invincible in the rules of the Demon Hospital. As expected, there were no useless features. It all depended on whether you had the luck and ability to use them.
Hua Hua Hua.
The sound of a cart's wheels was heard, and Yuki turned his head to see Shiina Hiyori and the boy with different-sized eyes being pushed over. The boy was a little confused, but then he didn't feel uncomfortable at all and felt like he was at home.
The girl looked at Yuki nervously and received a reassuring look.
The road has been found, so let's see if there are any accidents later.
"Of course it's impossible for there to be no accidents, but I'm also ready." Yuuki closed his eyes and went over all the details in his mind, and then at this moment, he heard a lively voice.
"Brothers and sisters, come on!"
Xiao Qiannai was standing at the door of her ward, waving at the three people with her eyes wide open. Beside her was her mother with tears on her face.
"No problem, you have to work on getting better too." Hiyori gave a gentle and forced smile, hesitantly stretched out her hand, and rubbed the sparse pink hair.
She knew it was fake, but something in her wanted it to be real.
Yuki didn't say anything. Players would be affected after activating the plot, but they could do nothing about it. At least he didn't have the characteristics or skills to bring the characters in the script back to reality.
But some things are still within my ability.
He slowly raised his thumb, looked at the girl deeply, turned his head and focused his attention on his player panel.
'Are you seriously ill' has been used, and now there is one left in the storage column:
【Conceptual gift set. It’s already crazy popular】
Wow...
The bed was pushed away, and the nurses and doctors around were holding medical records, oxygen bags and other things, looking quite professional. If Yuki didn't have medical knowledge and knew what they were doing, he might have been fooled.
Under the expectant, worried, or resentful gazes of the patients, the three players were pushed through the ward, to the lobby, and into the elevator.
A strange scene appeared. All the buttons on the 8th floor were changed, leaving only a lonely button in the center.
Only the fifth floor.
Yuki relaxed his fists. He had just decided that if the elevator buttons could go from the first floor to the ninth floor as normal, he would take control even if it meant violating [Tip 4].
Shiina Hiyori heaved a sigh of relief. It took him fifteen hours to reach the fifth floor from the ninth floor. He finally caught up with the progress. There were still thirty hours left. According to the decreasing rule of the floor buttons, he could use the conventional method to complete the dungeon.
The premise is that there is no other interference.
The elevator door closed, a feeling of weightlessness emerged, and a buzzing sound began to be heard. The elevator car was dead silent. Hiyori stared at the ceiling and began to empty his mind and rest his brain.
[Ding, we have arrived at the seventh floor. ]
[Ding, we've arrived at the sixth floor. ]
The floor reminder sound kept ringing, but no one came in, as if there was a naughty child who pressed the button for every floor.
This elevator runs too slow.
Hiyori turned her head curiously, and at that moment, as the elevator fell, the lights flickered. Just a moment of a few tenths of a second, but it made Hiyori Shiina open her eyes wide, thinking she was hallucinating.
Click, click.
The lights flickered every few seconds, and then when the elevator box fell into darkness, she saw the handsome doctors and pretty nurses change their appearance.
The skin was festering and pus was oozing out, the body was deformed, there was no hair on the head, and even no eyes. The only thing was a mouth that was split to the ears, revealing its eerie white teeth. As it flickered, its appearance became more and more terrifying.
!! ?
Hiyori instinctively tried to sit up, but was pushed back by the hand beside her. Her heart stopped and she quickly turned around, only to find that it was Yuki's hand.
The boy nodded slightly to show that he saw it, and pressed down with his palm to relax Hiyori's tense muscles.
He is stronger than me, smarter than me, and more experienced than me. There must be a way.
Yuuki had already fallen into a storm of thoughts, and he went over all the details again before entering the elevator:
1. The starting floor and the abnormal floor are not in the same spatial dimension.
2. A hospital that appears professional on the surface but is actually out to make money and kill people.
3. Demons attracted by pain and resentment.
4. As we go deeper into the floors, the medical staff change their appearance in the darkness.
And the most important point -
The buttons for the unusual floors of the elevator decrease in number with each floor. Does it sound like two straight lines that were originally far apart are slowly converging?
"The demon will continue to grow and get closer."
Yuki's eyes widened. Wasn't it getting closer?
[Ding, we've arrived at the fifth floor. ]
The elevator door opened, and the layout in front of me was finally different from before. This was no longer a brightly lit ward, but a dimly lit area.
The area is very large, and on both sides of the wide corridor, there is an iron door every ten meters or so, with a red light flashing "in operation" on it. Then the floor is quiet, and there is no more disturbing noise.
A doctor in surgical gown came over, took the medical records, and pushed the three people into the preparation room, before each of them dispersed to prepare the medicine.
Yuki looked around and sat up slightly. He saw Shiina Hiyori licking his lips nervously, and the boy with different-sized eyes taking a nap calmly.
"You are not afraid?"
"Well, I'm used to it, and since you decide everything, I have nothing to fear."
Yuuki nodded and ignored him, then looked at Shiina Hiyori: "Are you struggling?"
"Well, we can't enter the spectator state after the plot begins. I don't know how to restart the comparison method later."
The comparison method requires that the reference object remains unchanged, otherwise how to find out the difference in floors? But now their every move is triggering a butterfly effect.
"But we can't really let these bastards do anything to us."
The girl's lips moved slightly, but she was speechless. She found that the copy strategy had reached a dead end.
The comparison method is useless, and the plot has reached a bottleneck. As expected, reincarnation games like to give players difficult problems, and now there is something even more terrible:
According to clue four, they have no way to resist.
"Hey, why are you sitting up? The anesthetic is about to be injected." The doctor had noticed Yuki and started scolding.
The man acted like he didn't hear anything, which attracted the doctors and nurses to gather around him and then listen to his questions.
"Doctor, I have a question, it's only related to the condition."
"Keep it short." The surgeon urged impatiently, as if he was in a hurry for the next operation.
"Will I be missing something when I have the surgery later?"
"What do you mean?"
"It's just a kidney or something. When I go back to the ward, I can only wail in pain every day, or I can pay more money to have you replace my kidney for me."
This was insulting, but it fit with what Yuki had seen and heard since entering the hospital, and the preparation room fell into silence.
The doctors and nurses looked at each other helplessly, and the surgeon suddenly waved his hand.
"The patient has a tendency to be delusional. Let's give him a sedative first."
"Sir, please don't think too much. Our hospital is absolutely professional and well-received by patients." The sweet-looking nurse comforted him while taking out a syringe from the tray. "You just need to get some sleep and you will be well again."
Shiina Hitoshi didn't believe a word of it, but he didn't know how to solve this situation, because hint four did not allow the player to destroy the hospital or harm medical staff.
This is the starting floor, which is obviously within the scope of the 'hospital'.
Her eyes widened, thinking frantically, and she saw Yuuki didn't struggle, letting the needle pierce his skin, but at this moment -
Swish.
A silver light flashed without warning, and a sweet head flew into the air.
He... took action???
Shiina Hiyori was a little bit unbelievable, and then she saw the man in the hospital gown jumped up, holding a long knife with a red handle. There was no forced struggle on his face, only the most intuitive emotion.
Cool!
With one slash of the knife, all the depression after entering the hospital was swept away, and what he saw and heard made his blood burn.
He turned his head and looked at the doctor who was dispensing the medicine. The doctor did not run away. Instead, he picked up the scalpel and rushed over, looking crazy and as if he was going to fight to the death.
Didn't run? That's right.
The speed was too slow, and the small scalpel could be ignored. Yuki jumped off the bed, cut the man in half with one knife, drew his knife, turned around, and accurately inserted the blade into the second man's throat.
With the sound of sharp blades cutting into flesh, Yuki killed many people, leaving body parts all over the preparation room. The smell of blood overwhelmed the smell of disinfectant.
He attacked suddenly and killed them all quickly and efficiently, in less than a few seconds. It was so fast that Hiyori couldn't react. She hurriedly looked around, fearing that something unusual might have happened.
"H-H-H-H, what about Hint Four?"
She admitted that the killing was satisfying, but the consequences were unpredictable.
Yuki seemed not to have heard it. He bent down and wiped the blade on his white coat, and the rich blood immediately dyed it red.
"Hint four? They have no reason to harm me. This is not a deliberate attack, but--" He turned his head and made a beautiful knife move.
"Strike back in self-defense."
Devil's Hospital: Chapter 17: Mutual Calculations (First Update)
Self-defense and counterattack?
Hiyori was stunned for a moment, then she understood. Yuki was analyzing every word of the prompt over and over again.
Unlike himself and Zhang Qing, Yuki's illness was the effect of the activation of the concept costume. It has long passed now. He was not sick from the beginning and did not need treatment.
He was finding a loophole in the plot and noticed the word "deliberate"!
The girl has a quick mind. According to the plot, the demon hospital will exaggerate the player's symptoms and take unnecessary treatment measures, but Yuki does not have this prerequisite at all. These medical staff are just killing him for no reason.
This is certainly a self-defense counterattack, but it would be very risky without a real example. God knows how the reincarnation game judges it.
The purple eyes narrowed slightly, and he found that there was a huge difference between him and Yuki——
Their strategies are similar, but he dares to take that step into the unknown without hesitation!
There is no such thing as absolute certainty. Just like facing the sea of corpses under the red moon, Yuki hides when he should, and never hesitates when he should go all in.
"Let's go." Yuki walked out with a sword in one hand, and Hiyori quickly followed.
"Where to go?"
Those few cuts made her applaud with delight, but they also cut off the two routes they had taken so far.
How does the conventional method compare? The abnormal floor also gives you a few corpses piled up, right? The plot is cut off. How can you move forward after killing the medical staff?
"I don't know, but there must be a way. Do you think I'm a reckless man who takes pleasure in taking revenge?"
Hiyori moved her mouth, not daring to say anything, and didn't think it was the case.
Yuki walked quickly in the empty corridor. The slash made sense and was certain. According to his superficial experience, players have character identities in the dungeon.
In Bloodthirsty Red Moon, players are thugs and food, and in the Devil's Hospital, they become patients. The correct solution is to use this identity to advance slowly, while the reverse solution is -
The raised blade cut the doctor who was rushing around the corner into two pieces, and hot blood splattered on his face.
"Then tear off this layer of identity, use the knife as a whip, and push the plot forward!"
Yuki took one step at a time, moving forward and beheading those enemies who were not afraid of life and death one by one. Feeling the touch of the blade cutting through the flesh, his mind was extremely calm.
