"Isn't this the breakthrough material for upgrading my [Last Words]?"

Lu Ban also found the [Sigh of the Uncertain Mist] and the [Merciful Statue of the Black Queen Mother] by the way.

These two materials are sold in the store, and the price of each is over 100,000 Silence Points.

"So, even if I don't go on adventures in the corresponding foreign lands, I can still get breakthrough materials?"

Lu Ban suddenly felt a little bit at a disadvantage.

But on second thought, I would need three of these materials, which cost hundreds of thousands each, and I would also have to spend silence points to break through, which is really expensive.

"I can't afford it."

Lu Ban felt that he had so many points, so he should equip himself to the teeth and buy breakthrough materials.

Just like in mobile games, although there are indeed some stores where you can exchange diamonds bought with real money for breakthrough props or upgrade materials, why spend money on something that can be obtained by hard work? Unless you are a krypton gold tycoon, you will not even consider these.

But in fact, Lu Ban still gained something. At least the description of this item had two more sentences than the one in his breakthrough material.

"So, the [Saint's Remains] are really corpses that can walk? In certain areas of the wasteland, corpses have the same status as humans. Does this mean that after becoming a saint, even after death, one can move like a living person?"

If you think about it carefully, if those powerful people with extraordinary powers can still move around by instinct after they die, it would seem a bit difficult for me to get their remains.

Lu Ban felt the seriousness of the situation.

Moreover, according to the principle that the more powerful things are, the more expensive they are, the difficulty of obtaining the [Saint's Remains] which costs 160,000 Silence Points should be higher than the [Black Queen Mother's Mercy Statue] which costs 120,000 points, and is similar to the [Sigh of the Uncertain Mist] which costs 150,000 points.

In other words, Lu Ban needs firepower at the level of [Lapis Lazuli Fire] to deal with [Saint's Remains].

The fear comes from insufficient firepower, Lu Ban deeply agrees with this.

“I’m so poor. I feel like I can’t afford anything.”

Lu Ban looked around the store again and decided that he couldn't afford anything in there, so he had to close the store.

On the computer screen, Lu Ban opened the system's task selection interface.

"The last time the selection period was ten days, I don't know how long it will be this time."

He saw that not only the computer screen, but his entire room had changed.

The originally bright and spacious room suddenly became gloomy, scary and dark.

Lu Ban stood up and saw three exits from his house.

The balcony on the left hand side was deserted. Looking outside, the residential buildings outside the balcony had turned into tombstones. These tombstones were tall, cold, hard, crooked, and scattered all over the ground. Among these tombstones, there was only one that had no words on it, which made it look even more eerie.

【Happy Death Day】

[Do you believe that there are ghosts in this world? ]

[Some people say that there are no taboos, ghosts are just fantasies, and those buried under the tombstones are all dead]

[But have you ever thought that in those eternal silences, are there some words that have not been said? Some emotions cannot be erased even by death]

[Sorry to bother you by saying these in front of your grave. Happy Deathday]

[“He said his love for me would last until death. Now, I’m dead. What about him?”]

The arrangement and combination of those tombstones form these words.

"Huh?"

Lu Ban felt something strange.

Because in normal mission descriptions, the name of the foreign land will always be mentioned to inform the mission location.

However, there is no relevant description for this mission.

He returned to the room and saw vines growing out of his closet. The strangely shaped plants clung to the wall, causing the closet door to slowly open.

Lu Ban came to the cabinet and looked inside.

It was like a deep forest. No one knew what was inside. It just gave people a feeling of tranquility.

The vines are intertwined, forming the system's explanatory text.

【Sea of ​​Trees】

[No one knows, did they choose the sea of ​​trees, or did the sea of ​​trees choose them? ]

[As a tourist attraction, the sea of ​​trees is a paradise for suicides]

[You can choose any method of suicide you want. Here, the sky and the universe merge into one]

[As for the corpse, don't worry about it. After you die, the corpse no longer belongs to you.]

[“I feel very sad. They don’t understand me. No one can listen to me. I think it’s better for me to die.”]

After reading these words, Lu Ban discovered that there seemed to be a painful and twisted human face on the trunk of the vine.

"Isn't the Sea of ​​Trees abroad?"

Lu Ban remembered that this was a popular suicide spot. Many people chose to commit suicide in that forest. A host had even gone there to explore, but no corpses were ever captured.

"In other words, the location of this mission is in this world?"

He realized it later.

The quest guide mentions the horrors around him. It seems that after several trips to foreign lands, the Land of Silence will finally allow Lu Ban to understand more about the world he lives in.

After closing the cabinet door, Lu Ban turned and walked to the door of the room. He pushed the door open and smelled a strong smell of disinfectant.

He saw that the living room had disappeared, and in its place was a dim corridor with flickering lights and closed doors. On a bulletin board nearby, black words were ticking, outlining the description of the mission.

【cry】

[No one knows how many secrets this hospital hides]

[She said that the room at the end of the corridor hides the secrets of life and death. Those missing people are not dead, they just accompany you in a different way.]

[He said that the mirror in the elevator can reflect the truth and hypocrisy, and those vicious and ferocious guys have no shadow]

[It said, I'm hungry]

[“Did you hear the first cry of a newborn baby? It is a symbol of hope.”]

"Hospital? It looks familiar."

Lu Ban carefully observed the corridor of the hospital and felt that he had seen it somewhere.

Of course, the layout of hospitals may be similar, and Lu Ban is not a strong man who has never been to a hospital since he was a child, but he feels that this place has a stronger sense of déjà vu.

At this moment, Lu Ban saw that the elevator in the middle of the corridor suddenly lit up.

The sound of the steel cable running slowly came, bringing back memories for Lu Ban.

bite--

As the elevator arrived, he saw the door open and it seemed empty.

However, out of the corner of his eye, Lu Ban caught something.

That is, a foot.

He turned his head but couldn't see anything.

“…”

Looking towards the elevator again, Lu Ban saw that faint hand and footprints had appeared on the floor of the corridor at some point. The marks were very small, as if a baby was covered in something dirty and was crawling step by step.

However, the hand and footprints were bright red and extremely obvious in the dim corridor. Before Lu Ban noticed, these marks spread from the elevator and reached Lu Ban's feet.

It seems to have... crawled into my own house?

Suddenly, Lu Ban heard a baby crying. He turned around and looked at the desolate house.

After closing the door, Lu Ban remembered the source of this sense of déjà vu.

The corridor we were just in was none other than the Nanhua Private Renji Hospital!
