The final gentleman

Catherine used the octopus tentacles growing out of her palms to quickly untie the bandages on William's body. At the same time, she turned around and kicked the shrine at the end of the bed away.

The idol with its face covered with red cloth fell to the ground.

Click! Catherine stepped on it directly.

The idol shattered...but the sound of the shattering was very strange. It was not like stones or ceramics being broken, but like rotten flesh being stepped on.

With the destruction of the idol, William immediately regained his energy, and his physical fatigue almost faded away, but it was still far from the state in the old world.

"My disease! My epilepsy!"

William suddenly discovered that he could not detect any of the diseases that he suffered from as a silver ring patient, even the core epilepsy and the skin diseases that he was exposed to as a gentleman.

However, when the self-examination came to the abdomen, I found that the abyss structure still existed and the aura it exuded was the same as before.

"The abyss is still there... Is this the only one with the ability to come here? And it happens to be about the ability of [life]. Why is this happening? And is this a dream or a real world travel?"

"William, what are you muttering about? We must find a way to escape from here quickly. The things in here are so strange, and my abilities are blocked in large quantities. I can only use the characteristics of an octopus in the deep sea.

I don't think anyone will find us soon. "

Catherine was quite anxious. She seemed to have seen the horrific scene outside on the way to William's ward.

At this time, a burst of rapid footsteps came from outside the door, and the two people trapped in the room had no way to retreat.

"Prepare to fight to the death!"

Just when Catherine was in a fighting stance with multiple octopus legs hanging around her body, William's palm gently placed on her shoulder.

Click~The iron door of the ward opens from the outside.

The female doctor with black-rimmed glasses was the first to walk into the ward with an upright posture, followed by two security guards whose faces could not be seen clearly.

Her eyes quickly scanned the empty bed and the destroyed shrine, "Oh~ the gringos are quite capable... It seems that there are indeed many secrets hidden in their bodies, and they are not ordinary [abnormal].

The two of them probably haven't left the hospital yet, they just used some kind of ability to hide. They turned on the "Level 3 Alert" and temporarily closed the hospital door, allowing controllable patients to participate in the search for the two. "

After confirming that there were no clues left in the ward in front of her, the female doctor turned and left.

few minutes passed

A small black hole appeared in the empty ward without warning.

As the shape of the black hole becomes complete, what is formed is a small abyss.

A hand stretched out from inside, and two human bodies covered in mucus crawled out with difficulty, closing the ward door immediately.

Catherine's eyes widened and she looked at William's abdomen in disbelief, "When did you learn this trick?"

The feeling just now was very strange,

Catherine was put on the shoulders and immediately felt a "feeling of falling". The ward became farther and farther away, and she felt like she was falling into a bottomless abyss.

"I just learned it not long ago, and I didn't expect that I would be able to use it... Let's not talk about it for now! Catherine~ Is this a nightmare or reality?"

Catherine shook her head, as if she didn't know anything.

"This is also the first time I have encountered this situation. In the past, when I wanted to create a real dream, I would always maintain a slight connection with the nightmare. It was equivalent to being able to connect to the background of the nightmare, modify scenes, objects and other elements, or create Multiple layers of nightmares, even interrupting nightmares when necessary.

But this time it was different, there was no connection in my hand.

My nightmare ability was also blocked and I couldn't sense it at all. Only the biological essence of the deep-sea octopus was still barely preserved. "

Snapped! William's palm clasped Catherine's chin, lifting her up and leaning against the wall.

He didn’t ask any questions, he just stared into Catherine’s eyes to detect possible ‘lie impurities’… But in the end, he saw nothing, which basically meant that Catherine was not lying.

"You~ still don't trust others... Take a look at the things on the ground. Could they be things from the old world? My imagination is not strong enough to create such an 'evil thing' that I have never seen before. "

William naturally looked at the statue that had been trampled to pieces on the ground, and the red cloth covering its face fell in the distance.

The statue clearly looks like a majestic statue, but underneath its body is rotten flesh tissue with a honeycomb-like structure.

The covered face of the statue is a strange spiral pit, with tiny silk tentacles rising from it.

Even though it had been trampled to pieces, William's consciousness was still slightly shaken when he looked at the facial structure of the statue.

Such a strange statue reminded William of the three bows and nine kowtows that Yi Chen performed when he met the Tenth Abyss, and at the same time, it also revealed part of his sealed memory.

Yi Chen once knelt down and worshiped some kind of strange statue in the small dark room of the orphanage, and was eventually given the property of 'death'.

Lots of information told William from the side that the world in front of him might be Yi Chen's 'lifetime world', or that the combination of nightmares and epilepsy could achieve true world travel.

But the real situation here is far weirder than the world in William's memory.

Moreover, I don't know whether it was because the epileptic brain was not brought here or for other reasons, Yi Chen couldn't contact him, otherwise he could directly check and understand the situation at hand.

"William, is this the world you lived in? It's too weird..."

“I’m not sure either, my life was not me, but ‘another person’.

Anyway, let's escape from this mental hospital first.

Maybe this is just a surreal dream formed by the interaction between your nightmare and my brain, Catherine. Maybe I can wake up once I cross the boundary or achieve a certain goal. "

"Wake up? No... Such an interesting place, I don't want to leave like this.

However, it is indeed necessary to leave the hospital first, and wait until we find a safe place to slowly explore this interesting new world!

Woohoo~ It’s so fun! I have been imprisoned since my birth. Even if I escape from the deep sea, I have to stay in the circus all year round, and occasionally I can go out to play during holidays.

Now I experience real freedom and fun, hehe~ I'm not that angry with you anymore. "

Catherine's entire state became extremely excited, and a certain viciousness was revealed.

"Let's go, escape from this hospital first."

"Wait a moment, there are still necessary rituals."

Catherine drilled out an octopus tentacle with her index finger, sprayed ink and smeared her lips, and then tied it into a simple single ponytail.

Creak~ The iron door opens.

A tentacle slowly stretched out against the crack of the door, and there was an eyeball on it. After a while, the tentacle retracted and the eyeball was stuffed back into Catherine's eye socket.

After confirming that there was no one in the outer passage, the two people walked out.

The cold and closed single passage is covered with white and clean ceramic tiles, and the incandescent tubes continuously emit white light.

The right side of the passage corresponds to the elevator, without any floor numbers.

The left side of the passage corresponds to the stairwell, which is clearly indicated by the "Safety Passage" sign.

In this case, the natural choice is to take the stairs.

The two people wearing hospital gowns kept their steps as low as possible and headed towards the stairs.

We also passed many wards along the way, and we could see the general situation inside through the small windows on the iron doors.

[Shrine] is a must-have decoration for every ward.

Most patients are not restrained,

Or sit on the edge of the bed in a daze,

Or keep banging your head against the wall,

Or continue to kneel before the shrine,

Some people are even chewing on their own fingers.

"William, I have a good idea! How about we release all these guys and create a large-scale unrest?"

"Don't... there are only a few people here. We don't know the strength of the hospital. Maybe the other party can easily suppress the entire floor. Moreover, do you think this group of people will really help us instead of eating us?"

Just run away. "

Zizzi~

The safety passage sign at the end continued to make an electric sound, as if to warn any 'guests' who wanted to enter the stairwell to do everything possible to ensure their own safety.

The stairwell is also fully enclosed, turning up and down. There are no windows and you can't feel any wind.

The only source of illumination is the green sign at the corner of the stairs on each floor. This weak green light makes the darkness even weirder.

William gave an analysis, "The exit downstairs must be locked. We only have one ability left. We are definitely no match for these guys... go upstairs."

"It's up to you."

"Hold hands! It's easy to get lost in this repetitive staircase structure, and it's very possible that you won't see anyone around a corner."

When William wanted to take Catherine's hand, a tentacle wrapped around his wrist in advance. The other party urged with a look of disgust: "Hurry up!"
