Chapter 1287 1259. Crazy Patient
After walking around the first floor of the research hall, Lan En had basically gone through it.
Under the leadership of Adeline, various small rooms and doors were partially exposed to Lan En.
But Adeline could not continue to take him to higher levels.
“Recently, many gray blood patients have developed symptoms of irritability and delirium during treatment, and they have attacked church doctors.”
Adeline held each other's hands and said a little apologetically to Lan En.
"The church therefore sent some Sumeru descendants to guard the stairs, and some hunters to prevent the situation from getting out of control. I can't take you up to the second floor."
But as he said , she looked at Lan En with a look full of expectation.
"How about it? Even on the first floor, you should have seen how advanced the church is in medical technology, right? After all, you understand, right?"
Lan En is a little bit He nodded hesitantly: "Yanan is indeed very advanced."
This is a lie. Lan En has never been outside of Yanan in this world, and of course he doesn't know what the medical level is like outside of Yanan.
But when I think about the fact that there are so many foreign hunters in Yanan who come from all over the world and want to use [blood therapy] to fight terminal diseases, there should be nothing wrong with that vague answer.
But then, Lan En crossed his arms, lowered his head and asked Adeline back with interest.
“But you seem to want to persuade me to join the Healing Church.”
The Saint of Blood dodges a little at first, and raises her hand to smooth her hair behind her ears.
"Although not everyone can become a Saint of Blood, my current status in the church must be due to luck, right?"
"I don't have any specialties or advantages, no. He is as wise as a scholar and can study great knowledge, but he is not as brave and calm as a hunter, who can fight monsters and protect the city."
Adeline twisted her hands together nervously.
“I want to do something for the church and for others. After all, I have received more care than others because of my luck, but all I can give is blood. I don’t know what others will think, But I don’t like this!”
“Although I don’t have the knowledge, wisdom, or power, I can at least try to do something!”
Adeline probably just wanted to answer Lann at first and make him more willing to become a Yharnam hunter.
But as he spoke, Lan En could clearly feel that Adeline had mustered up the courage to reveal some of his emotions.
After finishing speaking, she lowered her head shyly and apologetically.
"Yes, I'm sorry, did I say too much?"
"In terms of the Yannan people's conversation style, it is indeed a lot." Lan En's comment with a tilt of his head made Ai Delin lowered her head, "But I'm a foreigner and I can't adapt to the Yanan people's conversational style at all. You are okay with this."
Adeline breathed a sigh of relief and raised her head: "Huh~ please stop teasing me."
Lan En shrugged, showing submission. And changed the topic back.
"But Adeline" the demon hunter changed the subject, and then turned his head as if looking around, looking at this research hall that occupies a large area and has a large floor height.
“Is this really a facility used to treat and research gray blood disease? In the face of the plague, the Healing Church seems to have no sense of isolation at all. Hunters and clergy all move around freely without any obstruction.”
The architectural structure of this research hall is completely hollow in the middle.
Lan En didn't know if there were stairs in the main body of the surrounding buildings, but in the middle of the building was a thick and tall wooden pillar. The spiral staircase surrounding this pillar extended out at the corresponding floor height and connected to the floors.
The giant columns always have complex reliefs and inscriptions, full of Gothic gloomy beauty.
“There is no need to question the Healing Church’s determination to save the world and defeat the plague!”
Facing Lan En’s question, Adeline smiled.
"Every patient here will receive good care. The clergy and scholars will treat them with all their heart, while the hunters will ensure that they will not harm themselves or others due to their illness."
"We are all people who have undergone [blood therapy]. We will not be infected by gray blood after receiving the sacred blood, so protective measures are optional."
Lan En smiled noncommittally. : "It should be like this."
Under the cloak, the tiny friction and collision sounds of [Smaug]'s armor could be heard from time to time, causing Adeline to send curious glances over him many times.
After all, for the Victorian-style Yanan, heavy and thick real armor like Lan En was completely a thing of the previous era.
It can be called an old antique.
Adeline could not imagine that there were people outside using such equipment to do hunter's work.
Lan En seemed to be persuaded by himself.
The Blood Saint thought to herself.
Then you should give him some advice later. If this kind of old-fashioned combat equipment is still used in Yanan, there will definitely be big problems when it comes to work.
However, just when Adeline wanted to open her mouth to remind her of the tall man beside her.
Lan En suddenly noticed something and twitched his nose. Then he frowned and looked at Adeline seriously. "Are you still studying lycanthropy here?"
The demon hunter's keen senses suddenly smelled the stench of Yharnam beasts in the complex smell of medicine in the research hall. , but it is different from the strong, viscous smell of human blood of ordinary lycanthropy patients.
More complicated and more hidden.
"Lynomorphism?" Adeline was obviously stunned, not expecting Lan En to ask this question here. "No, how could it be?"
"This place was originally used for research on blood, and later began to accept patients with gray blood disease. But they also received the sacred [blood therapy], how could they have lycanthropy."
Adeline His tone was very firm, and it was just as it should be.
[Blood Therapy] can cure everything. The ancient disease of lycanthropy still exists in today’s Yharnam, but because there is not enough sacred blood, [Blood Therapy] cannot be popularized in Yharnam. Just everyone.
The Healing Church claims this, and Adeline and Mark also believe it sincerely.
However, before Adeline could finish the last few words of 'getting involved'.
On the second floor of the research hall
“Crack!”
A burst of chaotic sounds of broken glass and wooden window frames suddenly broke the busy but quiet atmosphere in the research hall!
A cleric wearing a black uniform fell from the air behind Adeline. With a sound like a water bag bursting, he hit the sunken dry pool on the first floor of the research hall!
Under the squeeze of gravity, a blood line was squeezed out of his body and flew three or four meters away!
Lan En realized in an instant: there is a height difference of about seven meters between the second floor and the first floor of the research hall. This is not just the amount and intensity of bleeding that can be caused by a simple fall - this person's body was already bleeding heavily before he fell. Got it!
Sure enough, the culprit who caused the massive bleeding also fell down the next moment!
"Ouch!"
Roaring at the top of his lungs, crazy and irrational. Even because he roared too hard, his voice was even mixed with messy breathing sounds.
Like a dying donkey.
But this cry is not funny, on the contrary, it is very crazy and dangerous.
That was a patient wearing a dirty hospital gown.
Yanan's hospital gown is basically a loose dress, the style is exactly the same for men and women. This kind of dress is supposed to be designed to facilitate medical personnel to check the patient's body at any time.
But now, the patient's chest and upper arms were tied with strong leather straps, as if to restrict his ability to move.
Just like the corpse of a patient with gray blood that Lan En had seen before, he did not grow thick and tough black hair outside his body.
This is very different from lycanthropy patients, and is even enough to be regarded as two diseases.
But at the same time, the body of the gray blood patient who jumped down also began to become deformed!
When Lan En jumped down with a roar, he reached out and pulled Adeline, who was still completely unresponsive and had her back to the scene, behind him.
At the same time, he frowned and looked at the crazy gray-blooded patient.
The main body of the body cannot be seen because of the loose hospital gown, but the limbs are already as thin as a hemp pole. If the arms were completely hanging down, they could easily touch his own calves!
Body deformity caused by disease!
The most conspicuous thing about a patient with gray blood is the position of his head.
The head was wrapped in a gray coarse cloth sack, and there were large red and gray blood stains on the sack from the inside to the vulva.
The sack is very big, and it will definitely be loose when put on a normal person’s head. After all, there is no problem with two heads inside.
But on the shoulders of the patient with gray blood, the coarse sack was bulging.
It was even vaguely visible that there seemed to be a large piece of wriggling flesh and blood inside the coarse cloth, pushing out one undulating outline after another!
Is that sack really still a human head?
“Pfft!”
The patient with gray blood held an iron rod in his deformed and skinny hand. It looked like he had torn off the rod that hung the infusion bottle in the hospital.
The sharp severed head stabbed into the body of the priest in the dry pool again as the gray-blooded patient fell.
Abundant blood spurts out as new wounds appear on the body.
The patient with gray blood is very strong. He flicked the iron rod in his hand, and the priest who was wearing it was like a rag doll.
There was blood scattered in the air, and with the sound of wind, it hit the cupboard on the wall on the first floor with a 'whoop'.
The glass on the cabinet was broken, and the bottles and jars inside were also shattered on the floor.
The impact seemed to have shattered some of the more dangerous samples in the cupboard.
A stream of bluish-gray liquid spilled out, making a "stinging" sound like frying fat when it fell to the ground, and a burst of corrosive white smoke was emitted.
