Gu Bifang looked at Chi Yu and said half-jokingly: "Actually, our alliance is the most stable."

indeed.

Chi Yu nodded in agreement.

First of all, they are in the same situation—both are being hunted by the player team and are natural allies.

Secondly, from Gu Bifang's perspective, as an ordinary person, it is almost impossible to walk out of the building safely by relying on his own strength, so he needs Chi Yu's help.

In Chi Yu's opinion, Gu Bifang's presence can help her attract the attention of some hostile players. Moreover, as a "local", Gu Bifang can provide her with a lot of information about Zhuzhou City.

In the end, there are only two of them. Even if there are rules later requiring them to kill each other, this "only one can survive" level will inevitably be arranged at the end of the game.

At least for now, they don't have any conflicts of interest.

Of course, all this is based on the premise that Gu Bifang doesn’t know that Chi Yu is the culprit who has caused him to be hunted by twelve people until now.

Chi Yu looked away, deciding to keep this secret to himself.

She changed the subject very naturally: "So, next we should find the access card as soon as possible?"

"Yes."

Gu Bifang responded, "Not only the access card, but also two specific items are needed to leave here safely - the 'cryogenic cloak' on the fourth floor, and the 'virus inhibitor' on the second floor."

Without waiting for Chi Yu to ask, he spoke first, "Don't ask me why. I just heard it from others. I can't guarantee that it is accurate."

Ok.

Chi Yu wanted to say something else, but in his mind, the system alarm sounded again -

[Warning! The player's sanity value is too low! It is recommended to use sanity recovery items immediately! Avoid triggering negative states after the sanity value reaches zero! ]

[Player's current sanity value: 3! ]

...I almost forgot about this.

Chi Yu pressed his temples with a headache.

She was about to take out the [Silver Branch Pocket Watch], but after thinking for a while, she looked up at Gu Bifang and asked, "Do you have any medicine like [Morphine]?"

"What do you want morphine for..."

Before Gu Bifang finished speaking, he suddenly frowned.

He looked at Chi Yu and asked in disbelief, "Why is your mental pollution index so high?"

"Spiritual pollution index?"

Perhaps because his sanity had been reduced to zero once, he had become accustomed to that feeling. Now Chi Yu was not as dizzy as before, but only had a slight headache.

Still within the acceptable range.

Seeing that she acted as if nothing had happened, Gu Bifang was speechless for a moment and didn't even know what expression to make.

He replied woodenly: "The mental pollution index, as the name suggests, represents the health of your mind. The higher the index, the more dangerous your mental state is..."

"Considering that the challenger's mental breakdown is also a very attractive spectacle, Babel Tower has equipped each challenger with a bracelet that can monitor their vital signs... yes, the one you wear on your right wrist."

"Under normal circumstances, the bracelet will not react at all. But once the challenger's physical condition becomes abnormal, the bracelet will sound an alarm, and the flashing lights and piercing beeps will attract the monster's attention, putting the challenger in an even more dangerous situation... It's a vicious cycle."

"When the mental pollution index is about to reach its peak, the bracelet will emit a red light..."

Chi Yu rolled up his sleeves and took a look.

Gu Bifang's explanation followed: "Yes, it is this red light."

Looking at the red light flashing on the bracelet, and then looking at Chi Yu who still had a calm expression.

Gu Bifang didn't know why, but suddenly felt a little nervous: "Are you... okay?"

"If I were fine, I wouldn't be asking you for [morphine]."

Hearing this, Gu Bi suddenly reacted: "Yes, morphine."

He fumbled in the briefcase he was carrying for a while and threw over an injection.

Chi Yu reached out and took it.

[Special item: Concentrated cocaine injection needle. ]

[Item attribute: medical treatment. 】

[Level Rating: Rare. 】

[Conditions of use: None. 】

[Special Effect: Restores a small amount of sanity and removes most of the negative mental states.]

[Note: The special products supplied by Deepsea Pharmaceuticals have stronger efficacy than the common products on the market, but correspondingly, the withdrawal reaction after addiction will also be more severe. ]

"This stuff is much more effective than morphine. It's very strong. According to the researchers in the technical department, it's best to only inject one-third of it for the first time, otherwise..."

It is easy to put a burden on the body...

Watching Chi Yu expressionlessly injecting the entire syringe of solution into his arm, Gu Bifang opened his mouth and swallowed back the half-finished words.

He held it in for a while, but finally couldn't help it: "Have you ever received prosthetic transformation?"

"I guess so." Chi Yu glanced at his sanity which had recovered 40 points and replied casually.

How come the system's enhancement of the player's physique is not considered a transformation?

"That's it."

Not surprising then.

Gu Bifang breathed a sigh of relief and smiled again: "With this level of drug tolerance, most of your internal organs should have been replaced with bionic organs, right? I thought you were a poor person from the West District... Now it seems that I was wrong."

That’s right, if you are a poor person, you won’t be able to escape from the double-sided trap of monsters and enemies.

Chi Yu nodded randomly: "Do you still have that injection?"

The smile on Gu Bifang's face froze: "One shot...isn't it enough?"

"Almost, but it would be safer to give it another third."

At least you have to replenish your sanity to above 50.

Gu Bifang was silent for a long time, and "inadvertently" glanced at Chi Yu as if he was looking at a monster.

After a while, he threw two injection needles over and said, "Use them sparingly. I don't have much in stock."

"Thank you."

Chi Yu gave himself another injection.

"Speaking of which," she took the opportunity to ask, "besides injecting stimulants, are there other ways to reduce the pollution index?"

The previous injection of cocaine restored a full 13 points of her sanity. Now that she had injected one-third of the tube, her sanity value should have increased by about 8 points... but in fact, it only provided her with points.

Adding the remaining 3 points, it is stuck on half of the nodes.

This proves that repeated use of drugs can cause the body to develop drug resistance... and judging from the situation, the rate at which the drug's effectiveness decreases is extremely outrageous.

"Of course, and there are a lot of them."

Gu Bifang forced himself to shift his attention away from Chi Yu. "Spiritual pollution, to put it bluntly, is the impact of negative emotions on the human mental state."

"According to our... company's research, negative emotions such as sadness, anxiety, panic, fear, etc. are the source of mental pollution. Once you are under these negative emotions for a long time, your mind that can never relax will be like a string stretched to the extreme, and you may..."

Gu Bifang made a gesture, "With a snap, it suddenly broke."
