Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 84: “Diary of Living Corpse Research”

Back on the third floor again, Su Lun suddenly disappeared when he heard the movement downstairs.

There was no sound of blood, no gunshots, and no weird sounds made by monsters.

Su Lun breathed a sigh of relief and thought thoughtfully.

He also instantly determined something in his mind: "Generally speaking, the flow rate of time in the cursed space is the same as that in the outside world. "Blind Detective" Bill should have been here for a few months. He just tried to commit suicide. With such frequency of brain replenishment, it is definitely impossible to live for such a long time. Then 80% of the people I just saw were not alive..."

He also confirmed that a space rule he had deduced before was correct, that is: after a person dies, the terrifying monster will disappear and the space will return to its original state.

Otherwise, when he was first involved, there were no monsters on the third or second floor, and there were no traces of battle, which was obviously wrong.

As he expected, this is a triggering plot!

This can only happen when an outsider enters.

Fortunately, the monster didn't catch up with him, otherwise Su Lun would have died on the spot.

"Looks like I have to go down again..."

There are still some unresolved doubts in his heart. Although it is dangerous, Su Lun still plans to go there again.

After all, if he wanted to go out, he couldn't go around the second floor of the hospital.

I listened for a while, but didn't hear anything.

Su Lun walked down again cautiously.

Then, he saw exactly the same scene as before.

"Blind Detective" Bill is sitting at the door of a consulting room, with blood flowing at his feet.

Su Lun's eyes narrowed slightly: "The plot has been rewinded? Is it really the blind detective's dying thoughts..."

.......

The old cowboy discovered Suellen again and asked the same question: "Are you human?"

"Yes."

Suellen responded with the same words.

Originally I wanted to use the Eye of Omniscient to identify the mystery on the second floor, and also to see what the blind man's current state was. But as soon as he stared at the past, the blind man seemed to feel something, and suddenly drew his gun!

Su Lun's pupils shrank suddenly.

As a "gun expert", he knew that he was going to draw his gun just by looking at the slight body movements of the man, so he ran up the stairs again without any hesitation.

Almost at the same time, the sound of gunfire filled his ears, and the bullet had already grazed his thigh.

If he hadn't dodged in time just now, this shot would probably kill him in half.

Returning to the third floor corridor, the second floor returned to calm again.

Su Lun exhaled and sighed: "The Gun Master is so ridiculously strong. The gap is still a bit big..."

It’s not too unexpected that Bill can shoot.

Su Lun would do the same thing himself. In such a weird hospital, it is unlikely to meet a human being, especially when there are inexplicable visiting eyes.

He was standing so close to the stairs just now just to be on guard against this.

However, even though I was a little injured on this trip, I was certain of some things.

At the moment of the appraisal just now, what appeared on Bill's head was not the word "human", but "soul embodiment".

Biologically speaking, he is dead.

But in this space, he lives in a way similar to NPC.

.......

"What happened on the second floor should be a reappearance of the scene before the blind man temporarily..."

Su Lun took out the potion and treated the scratch on his thigh, and quickly analyzed it in his mind.

If it weren't for the blind man who knew how to supplement his brain, he should be able to go to the second floor to find the files smoothly now.

Now that there is such a guy, as soon as he goes there, he will face a high-level aberration created by that guy's brain.

Don't let him think wildly?

The most effective way is to kill him.

But... Su Lun has now determined that Bill is ridiculously strong.

I just took a look and got shot.

Su Lun felt that whenever he had the slightest intention to kill, he would probably be greeted by a hail of bullets as soon as he stepped down the stairs.

Kill plan, PASS directly!

"But...it took so long for the monster to appear in the first conversation, probably because his attention was on me at the time. As long as he distracts his attention and explains the situation to him in time, we may be able to stop the aberration monster. Appear..."

Su Lun thought of the key and decided to go down again.

He took a deep breath and warned himself not to show any hostility or misunderstanding.

Then he walked down the stairs again, and sure enough he saw the old cowboy bleeding on the bench again.

.......

Bill also discovered him immediately and said the same thing for the third time: "Are you human?"

Suellen responded: "Yes."

The same conversation started again, and Bill wanted to test Su Lun's origins.

This time he did not hide his method and said directly: "I discovered the rules of this cursed space. The monsters here are actually things that are embodied in our minds. As long as we don't think about it, the monsters will not appear. ”

Since the other party is dead, he also feels that there is no need to hide the news.

What's more, a gun master who shows no malicious intent may not be an enemy in this strange cursed space, but may be a great help.

Hearing this, Bill had a shocked look on his face.

He frowned and seemed to be thinking again.

After a moment, the blind man known as the detective easily figured out the key point: "No wonder, I thought the monster that appeared was very familiar before, so it is like this."

The two chatted for a few more words. Su Lun saw that no monster appeared and guessed that the blind detective had probably controlled some of his terrifying thoughts.

Obviously, Bill has not yet realized that he is dead.

Su Lun planned to recruit him as a temporary teammate, so he said: "Mr. Bill, I have heard of your name. I think that if we want to get out of this cursed space, it is best to look for some clues to get out."

Bill nodded without hesitation: "Yeah. I just need a helper."

Su Lun also didn't expect that Bill himself had actually thought of a way to break this cursed space.

The old cowboy expressed his opinion directly: "There are three conventional ways to crack the space. First, kill the source of the curse in the cursed space; second, find the cursed object; third, create the space that cannot bear it. The energy fluctuations force it to break open. But there is something special about this space. It will absorb 'people who are aware of its existence'. Therefore, I suspect that the 'source of the curse' may not be an entity, but something similar to a spiritual body, such as a certain A kind of 'resentment'. The 'rules for the embodiment of evil thoughts' you discovered also confirmed my conjecture. I am almost certain now that the source of the curse in this space is most likely a very powerful existence!"

Very powerful?

For this gun master to say this, Su Lun frowned.

Things turned out to be more troublesome than expected.

His understanding of the cursed space is far inferior to that of Bill. Many things are his cognitive blind spots, and he did not expect that there are so many things to pay attention to in cracking the cursed space.

When I heard it now, the option of confronting the BOSS was immediately eliminated.

Don't bet on the odds. It's very likely that you won't even be able to identify him in time, and you'll die immediately upon meeting him.

The only option left with the highest chance of survival is to find the name of the "Lord of Resentment" and recite it.

Su Lun didn't even think that Bill would actually think of him together.

Bill continued: "Judging from the current clues, the specifications of this cursed space will probably be extremely high. The ability of the 'curse source' is probably beyond what we can bear. Therefore, if we look for it rashly, we will Very dangerous."

After a pause, he continued: "And I have learned some special methods for dealing with this type of 'resentment' from some old hunters. Maybe we don't have to confront them head-on."

Su Lun asked: "What method?"

Bill said: "First, find a powerful cursed object that can restrain the ghost species, such as the [Cross Holy Emblem] of the Carter family. I don't have this, and I think you don't either; second, use alchemical bullets, such as' Silver', 'evil evil'; third, the alchemical ritual of exorcism; fourth, reciting its name... Different situations use different methods, and I'm not sure which one will work. But the first three all require a positive face For that ghost species, it is best not to try it unless it is a last resort. We can try the fourth type first. Find the name of the 'Lord of Resentment' in the hospital, and then recite it, maybe you can break the resentment and go out directly..."

Su Lun sounds like he has gained a lot of experience. It turns out there are so many ways to do it.

This is the experience gained by countless lives. The people who come out of the "Umbrella Organization" really live up to their reputation.

...........

After discussing the countermeasures, Su Lun and Bill began to search for clues in various clinics.

Su Lun was wary of monsters that would suddenly appear throughout the process, but found that his worries were unnecessary. He was also surprised that Bill, the blind detective, could perfectly control himself from thinking wildly.

Without the interference of monsters, they quickly found a special room: the dean's office.

Without wasting much time, Bill's detective skills allowed them to quickly find a safe behind the mural on the wall.

Su Lun originally thought that the safe would be troublesome, but the old cowboy fiddled with it for a while with the receiver and master key, and he opened it easily.

Detective is indeed a hodgepodge profession that knows everything and is proficient in everything.

There are no valuables in the safe, just a dense pile of notebooks.

Su Lun picked it up and took a look, and immediately realized that they had found the right clue!

What is recorded in this notebook is the diary of an experiment called "Research on Living Corpses". He could easily see the name of the person who signed it. At the end of almost every diary, it was written: Tirmidor M. Chekov.

Su Lun flipped through a few pages and saw that the notes were filled with all kinds of dense data, rune knowledge, alchemy knowledge... The content was too high-end, and even most of it, he couldn't even read. Understand.

In an instant, Su Lun realized that the value of this diary was immeasurable.

Then without looking closely, they were all put into storage rings.

According to the nature of the horror plot, Su Lun's intuition told him that if they found this key clue, it would probably trigger some chain reaction.

Sure enough, the next second he put away his notes, there was an unusual movement at the door of the dean's office.
