Chapter 25 Madhouse (1)
=======
After entering the dark screen of the level, Yi Han opened his eyes and found himself in a three-person ward with gentle tones.
There were only three beds in the room, with rounded corners and warm-colored sheets. There was a small bathroom, but the door was locked.
Apart from this, there were no extra furnishings or people.
[Level Name: Madhouse (Two-star Special)]
[Number of players: Undetermined]
[Level Description: This scene is specially built for players who have killed teammates in the past games. It is a punishment copy for players with low character values. Please survive these players and evil spirits who have done many evil things like you, and actively accept treatment and transformation. You can get a discharge certificate only after your character value is accumulated back to a positive number.]
[Clearance Reward: Discharge from Hospital]
[Failure penalty: Continue treatment]
This is the information description of the current level "Madhouse".
After Yi Han guessed that his former teammate was dead, he paused the matchmaking and searched for the "Madhouse" instance on the forum. Due to the system's restrictions on player comments, he knew that he couldn't get too much specific information this way, but with a few words, he could roughly analyze the situation of this instance.
Jian Lin's ability should be related to his luck value. He was matched into this dungeon. Yi Han's initial guess was that this might be a high-risk level with extremely high danger and rich rewards. But after he entered the three words "madhouse", he found that there was no information about this place in the entire forum, and few people even mentioned it.
The only thing that appeared in the search results column was an old post that offered a reward of 1,000 points for someone to accompany you through the game, which was posted three days ago.
The poster claimed that this was a level with a lot of rewards. He got the admission ticket but his ability was insufficient and he only had one partner who could go with him, so he wanted to find three teammates to accompany them.
The bounty was as high as 1,000, and the words kept tempting players with rewards for clearing levels. Any savvy player could see that something was wrong, so the post was left up for several days without anyone responding. At the end of the post, there were probably three tickets for the "Madhouse" replica made of props. Three days later, there were still three left.
"No one has received the ticket. It seems that the 'companion' who is willing to accompany him for free is Jian Lin." Combined with the speculation that Jian Lin is dead, plus the extremely tempting attitude in the post, Yi Han immediately came to the conclusion: This silly kid must have been deceived by the poster.
The bounty task function of the forum is like online shopping in the real world. First, the points of the poster are extracted and stored in the system. The points will be given to the recipient after he completes the task. In other words, this person must have known from the beginning that the "madhouse" is very dangerous and there is a high probability that he will never return. So he first persuaded the unsuspecting good boy Jian Lin to agree to go with him, and then casually posted a post on the forum. If he can really get the help of the big guys to successfully pass the level, it would be great. Even if he can't, he doesn't have to pay points, and he can also get a few people to take the blame for nothing.
Yi Han thought about it for a moment, and finally, because he was confident enough in his own ability and had some other ideas... he clicked three times in a row and received all the tickets.
3 tickets, a total of 1000 points.
At this time, 3 days had passed since the post was published, but the reward had not been automatically destroyed, indicating that the poster was still alive. Yi Han immediately decided that before he could get the 1,000 points and Jian Lin's whereabouts out of him, he would not let him die easily, even if he only had one breath left.
My thoughts returned to the scene before me.
Since Yi Han joined the game 3 days later than others, he was essentially a queue-jumping player. Plus, his character value was not negative, so he did not suffer the expected situation where he was tied to a bed and given medicine, injections, electric shock treatments, etc. as soon as he came in.
The room was empty and the door was locked. Yi Han twisted it hard and found out that the lock could only be opened from the outside.
There was no fire axe in the house, and the door was not a wooden door. Yi Han checked the house carefully again and found no conditions for breaking the door violently.
It was not until I touched the door panel with my hand and felt it carefully that I discovered that there was a small, inconspicuous door at a height slightly lower than the height of a person's head.
After pushing hard, I found that behind the small door was a metal fence, and behind the fence was another small door.
Open the door at the back as well, and you can see the dimly lit corridor.
There was no one in the corridor, but faint wailing and screaming seemed to be heard from far away, which reminded people of the prisons a century ago that were called hospitals but were actually used to detain criminals and give them abusive "treatments".
At this moment, he also understood why he had never encountered extremely malicious teammates and NPCs in the past few levels - the system obviously had a set of judgment methods. Players with low character values would be diverted to a copy specially designed to punish them after their first evil deeds, and would not be able to pass the level with normal players.
And where Yi Han is now is probably such a "prison" that holds countless evil people and evil spirits.
Yi Han listened attentively for a while, confirming that there was indeed no one nearby. Then he took out the newly upgraded chain from the inventory.
Now the chain is connected to Yi Han's consciousness, and he can basically move the chain at will, using it as naturally as having an extra finger. As soon as Yi Han loosened his hand, the iron chain, as thick as a finger, shot out from the railings on the door under his control, quickly wrapped around the door lock from the outside, and then exerted force.
With a click, the door lock snapped. Yi Han twisted the door slightly again and it opened.
The sound of the metal door lock being broken echoed in the empty corridor. If there were any NPCs on this floor, they would have heard it.
Yi Han took out the iron pot and looked around. Instead of thinking about dodging as soon as possible, he quickly locked onto the direction where the scream came from.
Under the dim light, there was a long corridor in front of him. He held an iron pot in one hand and a chain in the other, and walked slowly and cautiously. The cold chain dragged on the ground, making an inexplicably creepy sound.
…
At this time, in a ward at the other end of the corridor.
Jian Lin, whose body was covered with scars, was hugging his knees, huddled in the corner, his eyes dull and his mind muddled.
Of the two "fellow patients" who shared the room, one was taken to the electric shock therapy room next door, and the other was taken to an unknown place, but his screams seemed to still ring in my ears.
Two days had passed since he was caught by the NPC "supervisor" and died under various "treatment" methods. But in this instance, being a ghost was not much better than being a player, and he was not let off just because he died.
The people and ghosts with bad reputations were imprisoned here. When bad people died, they would become bad ghosts. They couldn't beat the old bad ghosts, and they didn't have the ability to catch those humans who were hiding from place to place, so they would have fun with new ghosts like him.
Because he was forced to take medicine and get injections every day, his mind was a little unclear, and he couldn't quite remember how he got into this dungeon. His longest memory as a human was that he and a "companion" who seemed to have had a big fight, happened to be hiding in the same ward, and in order to escape, the man deliberately lured the NPC to catch him... But he couldn't remember why the two had a fight before.
If this continues, he feels that it won't be long before his last memories as a human being will be forgotten, and the only things left in his mind will be pain and despair.
He shrank his body and hugged his head, then suddenly realized that the wailing from next door had stopped at some point.
This usually happens where the "patient" who has just been taken out has fainted from the pain.
In other words, it's my turn...
He huddled himself even tighter into the corner. His body had already developed a physiological reflex and began to tremble spontaneously. There was no part of his body that didn't hurt.
It's not that he hadn't thought about escaping, but even if he did, there was no truly safe corner in this insane asylum full of perverts. Every time he hid in fear for several hours, he would still be caught by the "supervisors" or "fellow patients", and then he would have another round of injuries that would make him more painful.
This is a paradise for villains and perverts, everyone is bullied and abused, and after growing up, they turn around and treat those weaker than themselves in this way. He doesn't understand why he is trapped here... but he struggled several times and kept trying to find a way, but in the end he was still powerless to resist.
The noise next door seemed a little strange, as if someone was fighting...
After a chaotic noise, a voice faintly asked: "Where is …………?"
Although his hearing was somewhat affected, he still felt that the voice was a little familiar... Unfortunately, his brain, controlled by drugs, could no longer remember much.
The sound of footsteps approached slowly, and then the door of the ward was opened.
He couldn't help but curl himself up into a ball and hide helplessly in the shadow of the corner.
Then a figure with weapons in both hands approached.
He is not the "doctor" who would tie him up with a rope, nor is he the "fellow patient" who is dying but still has evil thoughts.
...Who is that?
