Chapter 236 Frog Hospital (End) Bird-Beak Doctor

"It's time to end."

Li raised his left hand, and the figure in black turned into a translucent stream of light. The shadows of golden vines stretched out from every corner, dispelling the dark shadows with golden light.

The steaming mist in the corridor, the ghosts standing in the woods, the flesh floating on the pool, the mold spots scratched on the wall, all the stains symbolizing weirdness, decay and death were gently wiped away by the vines, leaving a clean and blank white.

Lin Chen leaned against the cold stone wall of the pond, tightly grasped the handle of the black umbrella, and protected the huge umbrella in front of him.

A wisp of vine-like golden light fell from the sky, and all living beings fell into silence in an instant, and the world also left a moment of silence for it.

The fully armed caregiver who was one step away from Lin Chen stood still, and his outstretched claws froze in mid-air. The outline flickered like a TV screen with poor contact, and it disappeared after two or three flicks.

Not only the nurse, but also other NPCs dressed as medical staff and ghosts in the shape of patients all flashed as if they were electrocuted, and then disappeared in an instant, as if someone had turned off the switch of the holographic projection.

Lin Chen felt the ground shaking violently, first rising rapidly, then shaking left and right, and then sinking rapidly after reaching a certain node.

The feeling of weightlessness made people dizzy, and the dust of the earth-shattering sky was flying in the air, and the gravel and wood chips were splashed in all directions, and they could not settle for a long time.

Lin Chen saw a corpse in a white coat that was no longer in human form through the gray void. Except for the upper body, the lower body was completely replaced by liquid tentacles.

The cheeks of the corpse were covered with granular eyeballs, and the corners of the mouth were also lined with fine fangs. With the facial features that were not severely deformed, he could barely recognize his identity-

Cheng Ping!

"Cheng Ping seems to have become a monster... But he is dead, and I don't know who killed him." Lin Chen reported to Qi Si calmly.

He took a step forward, and the foot was pushed back to its original position in the next second, as if he had never moved from beginning to end.

The hospital was shrinking, and the originally spacious flat land was reduced to only enough space for three or four people to stand side by side. The already crowded trees pressed like a wall, forming a semi-circular fence around the outer circle of the pond.

Lin Chen was sandwiched between the fence and the pond, unable to move.

He turned his head with difficulty and saw a pile of unrecognizable rubble scattered on the stone platform in the middle of the pool, which looked like part of a complete statue.

A scepter-like prop was inserted diagonally on the rubble. After staring at it for two seconds, a large number of indistinguishable words appeared, not because of lack of knowledge, but because those words were wrong. The original strokes were disrupted and reorganized, and could no longer be read.

Lin Chen suddenly felt a great sadness, but it was difficult to understand its origin. He seemed to be wearing a waterproof raincoat and soaked in the ocean of emotions. He could only watch, but could not intervene.

After an unknown amount of time, the golden vines that covered the entire space shattered into spots of light, and melted like snowflakes after falling to the ground.

The shock subsided, and Lin Chen looked back. The wide-open hospital gate was behind him, embedded in the gap of the fence surrounded by trees.

Behind the door was no longer a dark staircase, but a bright and narrow hospital corridor, with the morgue, kitchen, operating room, archive room, office, duty room and Ward 404 distributed from near to far.

And the closest to the door sat a dying bloody man.

It was Qi Si!

…

In the Blue Frog Hospital, Qi Si leaned against the wall, slumped weakly.

The thin blood color like smoke and fog oozed out from the wound, evenly dyeing the white shirt into a uniform blood red. The folds of the cloth adhered to each other, like flesh turned outward after being cut by a knife.

Qi Si saw himself in the reflection of the iron door. Two pure black scalpels nailed his left shoulder and right palm respectively. He was wrinkled and miserable, and it seemed that he would not live long.

He thought about it. If he insisted on raising his left hand to pull out the knife nailed to his right palm, he should be able to succeed.

But there was no need. There was nothing to do, so it was good to just sit there.

The pain felt like a thin veil, light and distant.

Qi Si easily ignored the slight discomfort and began to think about the information the puppeteer told him.

First of all, the role of the identity card.

The puppeteer claimed that it was the ticket to enter the final dungeon and a historical fragment containing the authority of the gods.

The former could not be verified, and the latter was also Qi Si's guess.

The puppeteer also said that the final dungeon was not a separate dungeon as most players thought, but more like a world where all players competed on the same stage, and it was related to the closed black tower in the center of the Sunset Ruins.

There was no way to verify it either.

Qi Si was more concerned about the "cooperation" mentioned by the puppeteer. The terms were too empty and false. It was nothing more than not deliberately infringing on each other's interests, giving priority to forming an alliance with Xila in the dungeon, and being able to team up with Xila members to enter the dungeon in the future.

This level of "cooperation" is definitely not the real purpose of the puppeteer.

"He obviously controls enough puppets and can easily occupy the advantage in numbers in each dungeon, but he still has to find collaborators; he can easily kill all threats, but he still leaves a lot of potential players... Is it related to the final dungeon?"

Qi Si twisted his left arm with difficulty, put his left hand into his trouser pocket, and took out two team rings.

The blood-colored rings were simple and ancient. They were the two he had taken off the fingers of Huang Xiaofei and Lu Zimo. The source can be said to be clean.

"In the final copy, are you going to form a team to participate?"

The space suddenly shook violently, and the floor flew upwards after sinking for several meters.

The scattered dust and stones flew around in the space, and a few particles got into Qisi's nasal cavity, causing bursts of coughing.

At the bottom of my mind, Cheng An's voice sounded excitedly: "The director is dead, Cheng Ping is dead... Frog Hospital will be mine from now on..."

Qisi has known for a long time that Cheng An is not a good person. He makes a high-sounding deal with the player, but he just wants to use the player to get rid of the dean.

Even so, he still asked with great interest: "In your transaction with Weird Games, did you say that after Cheng Ping's death, the Green Frog Hospital would belong to you?"

Cheng An was stunned.

Two seconds later, he said with a stern expression, "In the Frog Hospital, I am the only one besides the frogs. When you return your body to me, everything left by Cheng Ping will be mine."

Qisi raised the corners of his lips, and in the conscious space, his spirit body bent over and laughed.

"Comrade Cheng An, when have you ever seen a scene where a ghost takes away a body and then returns the body to the original owner?"

Under Cheng An's guarded eyes, the young man in red moved his fingers slightly, and the bloody pendulum flew back from the door, wrapped around the young man's wrist, and the sharp pendulum plunged heavily, sucking the gurgling blood.

[Effect 1: After seeing blood, the injured person will randomly obtain one of the following states: amnesia, hallucination, high fever, etc.]

The random effect is an illusion.

Qisi, who was already a ghost, looked at the phantom of his mother that appeared in front of him, and smiled crookedly: "If you want, I can prick you a few more times, and you can always get a more serious effect like amnesia randomly."

"It's your body anyway, I don't feel bad about it."

The edge as far as the eye can see is approaching, and in just a few seconds, the door at the bottom of the flat floor is in front of us.

Outside the open door is no longer a mist filled with figures, but a pond shaded by trees. The statue in the center has been broken into pieces, and the Poseidon's scepter is stuck diagonally in the gravel, quiet and solemn.

When Qisi saw Lin Chen standing by the pond, he immediately lost all expression and became as weak as a patient about to die.

He ordered through his conscious connection: "Lin Chen, the scepter on the stone platform is my prop. Can you get it for me?"

Qisi was covered in blood, and it looked difficult to move, so there was nothing wrong with asking someone to help him run errands.

Lin Chen did not doubt that he was there, turned around and stepped into the pond, pulled out the Poseidon's scepter inserted into the stone platform, and stood it beside him.

There seemed to be two cards hidden among the gravel, and Lin Chen took them out.

The first card is black and white.

On the card, a figure wearing a white robe and a white turban holds a white scepter, leading the way leisurely, followed by a team of black shadows.

[Identity Card: Undead Shepherd]

[Effect: You will be able to control any undead or ghost in the copy]

The second card is predominantly black.

The figure in black robe holds a crow mask in his hand, standing solemnly and silently, with dense black faces floating behind him, as if crying or frightened.

[Identity tag: Doctor Beak]

[Effect: When upright, you can resurrect a dead person in the copy; when reversed, you will become a dead person and fall into the abyss forever]

If the first identity card gives people a sense of tranquility and tranquility, then the second identity card is full of ominousness.

The female teacher's words echoed in Lin Chen's ears: "The 'door' has been opened, and the opening of the 'tower' will not be too far away. If there is a 'card', it is better to form a new force from scratch."

——Is this the "card" she calls?

"Lin Chen, come here." Qisi urged him lukewarmly, looking at Lin Chen who was standing there blankly.

Lin Chen came to his senses and quickly walked a few steps to reach Qisi's side.

The strong smell of blood filled his nose, and he saw clearly the scalpel nailed to Qiss's body, and he was immediately aroused to empathize with pain.

He reached forward with his hand, but did not dare to pull out the scalpel. He just placed the Poseidon Scepter in Qis's hand.

Looking at the bloody Qisi, even though he knew that he would return to his original state after leaving the dungeon, his voice still had a nasal sound: "Brother Qi, please hold on for a while. Now the system prompts that it is stuck for some reason. Wait a minute... …It will be fine soon…”

Qisi was almost killed by the Poseidon's remnant soul in the Poseidon's scepter, so he "kindly" lent it to Cheng Ping.

In this way, Poseidon has a body, Cheng Ping has a godhead, and he obtains a safe Poseidon Scepter, a win-win-win situation.

Lin Chen safely took back the Poseidon's scepter, while Cheng Ping died into a bunch of weird tentacle monsters. Although Poseidon's whereabouts was unknown, it was enough to show that his plan was successful.

[Name: Poseidon Scepter]

[Type: props]

[Effect: Gives you the ability to play god. (The more sins absorbed, the stronger the effect)】

After absorbing all the evils of Frog Hospital, the effects of Poseidon's Scepter changed.

Zeiss stared at the black wave pattern on the head of the scepter, and the meaning behind it was automatically generated in his mind.

He learned from this that in the future, establishing an anchor point no longer required specific weird props. He only needed to let the scepter fully absorb the evil in a certain area to establish a connection with that area.

For example, now, he has established an anchor point at Frog Hospital through the scepter and has initially taken control of the place.

Qisi did not immediately put the Poseidon Scepter back into the toolbar, but turned his head slightly to look at the two identity cards held by Lin Chen in his right hand.

Lin Chen understood, squatted down, and placed the identity card on Qisi's left hand.

The blood stain automatically reverses direction when it is about to touch the card, without infecting the card surface at all.

Qisi looked over the effects of the identity cards and said softly: "Identity cards are historical fragments that contain the authority of the gods. Each player can only choose one to bind. Unbinding is very troublesome."

"The Undead Shepherd is a card that focuses on force. Since it can control the undead, its self-protection ability is not too weak. If I remember correctly, you are ranked 85th on the newcomer list. Add in the effect of this card. Maybe we can reach the top fifty.”

"Doctor Beak's positive effects are very strong, but the negative effects are fatal enough that he cannot be used until the last moment. If you have the power to resurrect the dead, you will definitely become the target of competition among the big guilds. At that time, your fate will not be controlled by you, and it is very likely that you will Being forced to take risks..."

Qiss paused for a moment and said in a joking tone: "If you bind the card of Undead Shepherd, if I can still leave this copy, you will have a chance to control me when you meet me again in the future, which can just offset my relationship with The soul contract you signed."

Lin Chen listened to Qisi's analysis in a daze, and keenly caught the heavy air of death in the words.

He hurriedly comforted: "Brother Qi, don't talk nonsense. We have completed the main mission, but we are stuck... You will definitely be able to leave this dungeon alive..."

"No chance." Qisi shook his head gently, "You touch my heart and see if it's still beating?"

Lin Chen was horrified, and raised his hand to cover Qisi's heart - there was deathly silence, without any beating.

He withdrew his hand and touched Qisi's arm with his fingertips. It was too cold, as cold as ice, and blue-black burn marks appeared on the touched area within a few breaths.

"Qi...Brother Qi, what's going on?"

Qiss laughed at himself: "It's my skill. I miscalculated the number of times and used it one more time. It suffered backlash and turned into a ghost."

Skill? Soul contract?

How could such a meticulous person as Qis make a miscalculation?

There was a flash of lightning in Lin Chen's mind, and Lin Chen's eyes flashed back to what happened when he asked Qiss for help after being controlled by the puppet master, and when Qiss signed a contract with him.

‘So this time, are you willing to risk your life? ’

At that time, Qiss said this in a helpless and pitiful tone.

He originally thought that this was just asking him, but now it seems that this sentence is not Qisi's asking himself.

It is impossible for Zeiss to make a simple mistake of miscalculating the number of times, unless the situation is urgent and sudden, and he has to forcefully activate the skill when the number of times is exhausted.

The answer is ready to come out.

It was because of him that Chiss forcibly activated the soul contract skill in order to help him get rid of the control of the puppet master, so that he suffered backlash...

Lin Chen opened his mouth, wanting to apologize for not being vigilant, wanting to say that he wasn't worth it, wanting to say that if he couldn't get out of control, he could just die, and there was no need to take such a big risk for him...

But he couldn't say a word.

Qiss sighed: "Take the Poseidon Scepter away. It is related to the secrets of the god level. It may be able to help you pass the final copy in the future."

"I don't have many relatives in reality. I'm afraid I won't be discovered until it rots in the house... If you don't mind the trouble, can you go to Jiangcheng Omi Community to collect a body for me?"

Qisi's words were as breathless as a gossamer, and his attitude was completely to explain the aftermath.

Lin Chen squatted beside him in a daze, wiping the blood on his body with the lapel of his clothes.

The back of his hand inadvertently touched an identity card, and in the phantom triggered by inspiration, the doctor in black robe slowly put the crow mask on his face, and the undead behind gave birth to living skin at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Lin Chen held the identity card and his eyes lit up: "Brother Qi, as long as I bind the [Doctor Beak] card and pull out the correct position, I can revive you!"

Qisi lowered his eyes and said: "If you pull out the reverse position, you will die. Going from one death to two deaths is a big loss."

Lin Chen seemed to have not heard anything and pressed the [Doctor Beak] card in his hand to his heart.

The huge black card loomed looming behind him, scattered into diamond-shaped black fragments and then submerged into his body.

Two upside-down cards were suspended between Lin Chen and Qisi.

Lin Chen flipped open one of the sheets——

[Upright position].

Lin Chen smiled: "Brother Qi, my luck has always been very good."

The warm white light caressed Qisi's body, but no trace of heat remained.

Ghosts are not necessarily dead, and the process of alienation into ghosts seems irreversible.

Qiss had already expected it, and he controlled the cursed spirit hidden in his sleeves without leaving a trace and pricked his arm several times until the effect of a high fever randomly appeared, making his face turn a little rosy.

"Thank you, Lin Chen."

He looked at Lin Chen and smiled sincerely, as if his life had really just been saved.

It doesn't matter if you become a ghost. The two dungeons of "Double Happiness Town" and "Dialectical Game" have proven that players who have become ghosts can also leave the dungeon.

All Qis' actions just now were just taking advantage of the situation to force Lin Chen to bind the [Beak Doctor] card and give up the [Undead Shepherd] card.

The ability to resurrect from the dead can be used as a bargaining chip in negotiations. Even if the risk is high, he is not the one who bears the price anyway.

At the same time, he does not want the ability to unconditionally control him to exist in the world at all, so the [Undead Shepherd] card must be sealed.

If the [Soul Contract] skill hadn't been banned, Qisi would have controlled Lin Chen to directly bind [Doctor Beak] without hesitation, without having to go through so much trouble to induce him to make a choice on his own initiative.

However, the current development also has its advantages. Lin Chen seems to believe in him from the bottom of his heart. In the future, he doesn't have to work hard to use the contract control all the time, nor does he have to worry about complications when the skills are blocked.

Lin Chen didn't know what Qi Si was thinking, and looked at the scalpel nailed to the young man's wound with concern: "Qi... Brother Qi, do you need to pull it out?"

Qi Si knew that he was still in the state of a ghost, and if he was touched by Lin Chen again, he would be exposed. He refused without changing his face: "No need, it's almost over anyway, isn't it?"

He pushed a red ring in his hand towards Lin Chen and asked with a smile: "Are you interested in forming a team for the future dungeons?"

Lin Chen picked up the ring and nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice, and was so happy that he was incoherent: "Yeah! Interested! I am willing!"

The system interface recovered from the freeze, and the silver-white text was refreshed as scheduled.

[Congratulations to the player for completing the team dungeon "Frog Hospital"]

[The suffering of the world is one day of life and the other day of death. Cry when you are alive and cry when you die. Cry when you die. 】

On the black and white background of old movie quality, pregnant women with big bellies but skinny bodies lined up in a queue, walking forward with lifeless eyes.

Skeleton-like babies fell from their bodies, followed them, and grew up at a speed visible to the naked eye, growing into equally skinny women.

Their bellies grew bigger little by little, and they gave birth to empty babies, over and over again.

Bones gradually piled up on both sides of the road, and those bones turned into mountains of gold and silver, and then quickly shrank down.

The buildings next to them changed from thatched huts to palaces, and then to houses and high-rise buildings.

The queue of pregnant women kept walking numbly and slowly, endlessly...

[Mother hates son, son devours mother, year after year, generation after generation, without interruption. Bitter, bitter, hate, hate, but to whom? 】

【《Frog Hospital》True End-“Suffering Reincarnation” has been included】

【The copy will be automatically transferred after three minutes】

Outside the iron gate, a woman with long hair and blood-stained white clothes and an umbilical cord walked out of the woods, walked to Cheng Ping's body quietly, and squatted slowly beside him for fear of waking him up.

The woman gently hugged Cheng Ping's head full of eyeballs and fangs, leaned down and gently kissed the ugly corpse, with love and admiration.

Cheng Xiaoyu also appeared, threw himself on the corpse and cried loudly. After a moment, he raised his head and glared at Qi Si: "Bad guy! You are a bad guy!"

"Yes, I am a bad guy." Qi Si smiled with curved eyebrows, holding the lower handle of the sea god's scepter with his left hand, and leaned forward slightly.

Golden rain fell from the sky, like meteor lava, hitting Cheng Xiaoyu's family of three, igniting a raging fire.

Cheng Xiaoyu and the woman screamed in pain, and in just half a minute they turned into two small hills of ashes.

Qi Si watched with interest, and saw Lin Chen standing there in a daze, and his smile was filled with compassion.

"Who says good people don't live long..." (End of this chapter)
