Seeing that weird giant mushroom man, even Franka, a veteran gamer, felt curious and frightened.
Oh my god, what kind of monster is this?
It is indeed something derived from the psychological shadow of a great being. I don’t know whether it comes from Mr. Fool or the Heavenly Lord...
While similar thoughts flashed through their minds, Franka and Janna moved to both sides in tacit agreement, with one hiding in the shadows and the other disappearing.
Luo Shan had never cooperated with them in an extraordinary battle, and it was the first time she encountered a monster without a barrier. This was not the territory of a "shaman" yet, so she was at a loss for a while.
She instinctively turned around and ran back to the hall just now, but her speed was so fast that she left an afterimage on the spot.
However, she clearly chose the double wooden doors behind her, but she was shocked to find that she was quickly approaching the giant mushroom man that was as red as blood and mixed with white stripes.
At the same time, Franka emerged from the shadows.
She felt that the shadow she was hiding in was strangely activated, as if it wanted to control herself and corrode herself.
The next second, both she and Luo Shan saw the giant mushroom man suddenly expand and grow, and a giant magma sword burning with light blue flames condensed in his hand.
The giant mushroom man closed the distance in one step and chopped down the sword in his hand that seemed to be condensed from red magma.
Franka did not dodge back, but instead shot forward, lowered her body, and jumped to the side of the mushroom man before the magma giant sword struck.
Jenna's body was quickly outlined on the ceiling, holding a brass revolver in her hand, aiming at the giant mushroom man's head.
Bang!
The giant mushroom man struck the inexperienced Luo Shan with a sword, smashing the "painter" into pieces like a mirror.
The "mirror double" that Jenna and Franka made for Roxanne finally came into use.
The giant magma sword did not stop after chopping Roshan into pieces. It hit the corridor floor hard, ejecting light blue sulfur fireballs.
Boom!
As soon as Jian Na pulled the trigger and fired a bright yellow bullet into the head of the giant mushroom man, it was swallowed up by a chain reaction explosion.
Most of the corridor, including Franka and the giant mushroom man himself, were also affected by the explosion caused by more than a dozen sulfur fireballs.
Franka and Jenna passively triggered the "mirror double". Their bodies first became thinner, then cracks appeared, and finally collapsed into pieces.
When the explosion in the narrow environment subsided, Franka, Jenna and Roxanne's figures were outlined at the location where the giant mushroom man originally stood, which was at the end of the corridor, next to the other double wooden door.
They saw that the giant mushroom man's head had been deflated in half, with dark red blood, white hyphae and tiny spores flowing out. They also saw that its body had also been torn apart by the explosion, with large wounds, and there were both hyphae inside.
, and has flesh and blood.
As the flesh and blood squirmed and hyphae grew, the wounds of the giant mushroom man quickly recovered as before.
When Franka saw this, her scalp went numb, she turned around, pushed open the door, and rushed out of the corridor.
She felt that fighting in this narrow environment was not conducive to the performance of herself and others, and the terrifying mushroom man with exaggerated self-healing ability and explosive methods was obviously more at home!
Therefore, she had to escape from here, firstly by trying to get rid of the giant mushroom man, and secondly by finding a scene more suitable for the battle between the "witch" and the "painter".
Jenna did not hesitate and followed Franka.
Roxanne, who thought she would die, was surprised on the one hand that the "mirror double" was really useful. On the other hand, she gained experience and chose to imitate the behavior of Luo Fu and Jenna.
The three of them quickly passed through the opened door and arrived at the new dim corridor.
Behind them, the two halves of the wooden door swayed several times before finally closing completely.
As Franka moved forward, she vigilantly observed whether the giant mushroom man was chasing after her. She found that there was dead silence behind the door, and there was no movement at all.
"Uh... each psychological shadow only operates in a fixed area?" Franka slowed down and made a guess based on her own experience and imagination.
Jian Na nodded, looked around and said:
"What we need to be vigilant about now is the psychological shadow in this area?"
"What kind of psychological shadow?" Luo Shan looked puzzled.
"A monster similar to the mushroom man just now." Franka explained simply.
Luo Shan rolled her eyes slightly and blurted out:
"A monster turned into by Zhou Mingrui's psychological shadow?"
Very smart... Franka thought about it and said:
"It also includes the psychological shadow of evil forces."
Luo Shan was silent for two seconds, and was about to say something more when she suddenly coughed.
"Cough cough cough..." she said after a moment of relief, "Why do I feel like I'm suddenly sick?"
"Disease"? That mushroom man just now can also create occult pathogens? Franka and I are both "pain witches" and have a certain resistance to the "disease" ability. We will not be infected even if we are exposed to it for a short time, but Roxanne cannot.
Have symptoms? Symptoms appear quickly. This is not the level of Sequence 7... After Zhou Mingrui was stimulated, the power level of Dream City has changed, and this started from the underground part of Mu Shu Hospital, and the outside world has not yet reflected accordingly?
Jenna vaguely understood the reason and took out a bottle of healing potion from her "traveler's bag".
She was not in a hurry to provide treatment for Roxanne, and asked thoughtfully:
"Can you paint yourself a special medicine?"
Even if the drawn medicine lasts for a long time, it can actually cure the disease - as long as all the occult pathogens are killed before the curative effect disappears, that's it!
At this time, Franka also figured out the reason and muttered:
"Isn't that mushroom man too scary?
"What kind of monster is this!"
Luo Shan felt her forehead getting hot. She shook her head and said:
"I don't know what the specific disease is, and I don't know what medicine to use to treat it."
"Then drink this." Jenna handed the healing potion in her hand to Roxanne.
——She and Franka always kept two bottles of healing potions on their bodies, and the ones consumed before were either from Lumian or replenished by Lumian.
After experiencing the death of a substitute, Roxanne had great trust in Franka and Jenna. She took the healing potion, unscrewed the lid directly, and Gulu drank it.
In just ten seconds, she blinked and said:
"It seems that everything is fine, the illness is cured...
"How amazing!"
"Your ability to draw is also amazing." Franka said modestly, pointing to the end of the corridor, "We continue to move forward, we have to find the elevator as soon as possible, otherwise we really don't know what we will encounter..."
She has lingering fears about the giant mushroom.
Jenna and Roxanne did the same, quickening their pace and following behind Franka.
They had just taken two or three steps when the double wooden doors at the end of the corridor suddenly opened back.
Franka and Janna reflexively used "invisibility", and then thought about how to hide Roxanne.
Luo Shan had somewhat adapted to the current situation. She took a pencil and drew a simple, inconspicuous door like a child's graffiti on the side wall in just two seconds.
There was no sign on this door and it did not lead to any place. Luo Shan stretched out her palm to touch the handle and pulled it back suddenly.
Located on the wall, the newly painted door magically opens, revealing a dark area the size of Room 2303's bathroom.
Luo Shan hid in and then carefully closed the paper-like door.
There were only a few less obvious pencil marks left on the wall surface, which looked like door leaves.
At this time, the double door at the end of the corridor was fully opened, and a nurse wearing light blue clothes and a white mask pushed a transfer bed and slowly entered the current area.
Franka held her breath and turned her attention to the nursing staff and the transfer bed.
She saw that the nurse's eyes were empty and dull, but also seemed to contain deep malice. She saw that the surface of the transfer bed was covered with a thin quilt, but no patient or corpse was sleeping on it.
What made the back of Franka's neck feel cold was that the thin quilt was bulging, but there was obviously nothing underneath it.
Covered by something invisible? Franka and Janna pressed their backs against the side wall, trying to widen the distance between themselves, the caregivers, and the transfer bed.
Amidst the sound of wheels rolling across the cracks in the floor, the caregiver maintained a slow and dull posture as he pushed the transfer bed between Franka and Janna, and towards the double wooden door of the corridor leading to the giant mushroom man.
It wasn't until the transfer bed pushed open the door, slowly left the current area, and disappeared from sight that Franka and Jenna ended their "invisibility" and returned to the middle of the corridor.
Luo Shan also opened the door on the wall and jumped out lightly.
She didn't forget to "close the door".
"How did you know you could come out?" Jenna asked, who wanted to knock on the door.
Luo Shan raised the pencil in her hand and said with a smile:
"I drew a viewing hole in it."
"Well, let's continue looking for the elevator." Franka walked at the front without hesitation.
Just when they reached the exit at the end of the corridor, the double door suddenly opened back.
It was opened again, when Franka, Jenna and Roxanne were less than three meters away from it.
…………
Mu Shu Hospital, emergency center.
Zhou Mingrui described the symptoms of acute gastroenteritis based on his last experience in seeing a doctor, and successfully obtained the test order issued by the doctor.
He took this list and turned into the aisle on the right, heading to the emergency blood drawing department.
While waiting for the number to be called at the blood drawing office, he held his stomach and pretended that he couldn't bear it any longer. He quickly left the place and entered the lobby on the first floor, heading towards the nearest public restroom.
During the process, he naturally looked around to see if he could find any odd details.
——He was in the emergency center before and found nothing.
The nearest public restroom is adjacent to elevators No. 6 to 10. Zhou Mingrui quickly walked around to the elevator room under the dim light.
He pressed "up" and "down" at the same time and observed the operation of the elevator.
Not long after, the two elevators arrived on the first floor and opened their doors almost simultaneously.
Zhou Mingrui glanced left and right and found that there was nothing unusual about the elevator going up, but the one going down gave him the feeling of leading to hell and the source of fear.
"Is the problem with Mu Shu Hospital underground?" Zhou Mingrui muttered to himself silently.
