Chapter 31 Saint Lan Monastery 31
"You counted, there are about ten cold storage rooms on the entire second floor."
"This means that other cold storage facilities may very well have preserved the bodies of many children in this way."
"You don't understand why some people can be so ruthless and unscrupulous for profit."
"Even if this is a strange world, and you are an NPC, in their world, there are still human lives at stake."
"But that's assuming those people haven't done anything wrong, like these kids who are only ten or so years old."
"What kind of bad intentions would most of them have?"
Just because you don't like naughty kids doesn't mean you think all kids are mischievous and unlikable.
"Some children are actually very cute."
"You went to the other cold storage facilities and opened them one by one."
"In the fifth cold storage, the bodies were only two or three years old, and they were still frozen in styrofoam boxes."
"They also had some of their organs removed."
"The last two cold storage rooms were filled with round, transparent glass tanks."
"And inside the glass tank were the bodies of an infant, preserved in water."
"Two babies have already been made into human specimens, and the flesh of one baby has been cut off."
"The pungent smell of formaldehyde and the shocking visuals will make you feel uncomfortable."
"You escaped from the cold storage again, standing in the corridor, panting heavily."
"The number of things this monastery has done to make money is simply too numerous to count, including lack of organs and meat."
"You searched all over Tower 2 again but found no clues about the rules for Tower 2."
"You recall the entry you saw in the pastor's diary, where the dean required them to follow certain rules."
"Were these rules made by the dean?"
"If that's really the case, then the dean will be even more difficult to deal with."
"The fact that the head chef was able to come here means that the dean allowed it. According to the dean's rules, the head chef is allowed to come here."
"What exactly is the head chef doing here? Or is the man in red mask someone special?"
"Harvesting means removing human organs, which is what doctors do, but in monasteries, priests and monks are responsible for this."
"The head chef is normally responsible for cooking."
"So, they still eat baby meat?"
"The more it involves reasoning, the more it will challenge your worldview."
"You have finished the simulation."
"Simulation complete! Current anomaly value: 35 points. Simulation duration: 28 minutes."
After the simulation ended, Wen Qi carefully reviewed the clues she had obtained so far.
The abbot was the culprit who caused the entire monastery to change.
The dean became strange after curing little Cooper's illness; the dean's son's illness and recovery were the triggers.
What exactly happened during this period that turned the original dean into what he is now remains unknown.
This corresponds to the fact that Little Cooper is the source of the cage.
It was because of Little Cooper's illness that the headmaster became so strange.
The dean used strange methods to establish rules, but Wen Qi was puzzled as to why the head chef and some of the priests' masks had turned red.
Afterwards, the monastery began selling organs. The organs initially came from the monastery's doctors and nuns who did not follow the rules, as well as from poor young people trafficked from outside.
Gradually, the hospital director became dissatisfied with the organ transplant business and began organ donor experiments, increasing the use of human organs to produce MT drugs.
Those whose organs were removed or who died were transformed into monsters by some strange force.
They either became waiters or donors to keep the heart active outside the body.
From infants to young adults in their twenties, those who prayed earnestly did not experience white blood cell mutations and were not eligible for organ transplant matching; they became the candidates for MT (mutant organ transplant).
Those believers who do not pray three times a day as required are corrupted by a strange power, becoming able to be matched with the cloaked figures for organ transplants and sales.
Even the flesh of these people ended up in restaurants and on dining tables.
The living young believers were trafficked, and some of the corpses were stolen bodies from which organs were removed.
The origin of the babies and children, and the purpose of the auction, remain unclear to Wen Qi.
But it's nothing more than human trafficking and murder.
This chain of interests must involve a wide range of people.
Whether the Saint Lan Monastery was a legitimate entity or operating underground, Wen Qi had no idea.
If they were legitimate, the buyer couldn't possibly be wearing a mystery cloak, especially since this is a monastery!
If they are not legal, the monastery's personnel structure is unreasonable.
Wen Qi thought about it carefully. The system's introduction to the supernatural power seemed to mention that the supernatural was above humans and that the lives of the poor and lowly were worthless.
Does this mean that the existence of monasteries is illegal, but no one cares whether they are legal or not, or what kind of business they are doing?
The monastery provides the venue, the abbot controls everything, and priests, monks, and nuns participate in the buying and selling. The monastery, organ traffickers, and human traffickers reap huge profits from this, and the rich obtain the organs or supernatural powers they desire.
Driven by greed, the Saint Lan Monastery has become a criminal organization.
Everything is done with the interests of the rich in mind.
However, the rich are not necessarily the masters of this world; it is humans or the supernatural that possess mysterious powers.
All the clues connected together made Wen Qi feel a deep disgust for this strange world.
Wen Qi sat on the bed and analyzed everything.
[Congratulations, host, your dungeon progress has increased to 47%, and your talent skill level has increased.]
[The host receives a new reward—immunity to contamination.]
[Note: Immunity to contamination: The host is virtually unaffected by the strange power, and any previous genetic mutations will gradually recover.]
Wen Qi didn't expect that just by sorting out the clues, she had already reached the halfway point of the exploration and received such a useful reward.
The clues about Tower 2 are currently only obtained through simulation. The system should be the same as before, assuming that it doesn't know them yet.
So if you want to improve your dungeon progress, you still need to actually go to Tower 2.
Having gathered her thoughts, Wen Qi prepared to conduct an on-site investigation.
Although changing into a chef's uniform and a purple mask in the bathroom is not quite appropriate.
But there wasn't a better place.
Wen Qi quickly arrived at the first floor and waited until a nun of similar build to herself entered the restroom before she went in.
When the nun went into the toilet stall, Wen Qi knocked her unconscious with a stick and locked her in the stall.
This should have a slightly misleading effect.
There were still two hours until dinner time, and the garden wasn't crowded.
She pretended to wander around lazily until she was sure no one would see her, then suddenly sped up and ran towards Tower 2.
The viewers in front of the screen were completely bewildered.
What's wrong with Wen Qi today?
"She's going straight for Tower 2. What if there's a death rule involved?"
"That's right! Wen Qi was a bit reckless today."
"Didn't that little boy say that only his dad and the buyers could get in?"
"What is Sister Seven doing?"
"She wouldn't go in if she wasn't sure. Have you forgotten that Wen Qi might have precognitive abilities?"
Gu Ye and Zhang Lao sat side by side in front of the live broadcast screen, both with their brows furrowed.
