Chapter 212 Frog Hospital (12) Parasite


Chapter 212 Frog Hospital (12) Parasite

Chis had expected this.

As the number of cleared copies increases, the quality of the players he encounters will become higher and higher, and it will be difficult for him to take advantage of them as easily as before.

All he can do is to extract tiny benefits bit by bit on the basis of the equal treaty, and secretly watch for opportunities to strive for dominance in cooperation.

Qisi put his hands on his knees, tapping one after another: "Interesting, you offered to cooperate, but you asked for a lot. Are you so sure that I will not refuse your request?"

Huang Xiaofei raised his eyebrows: "You draw up the terms and I sign them. This is fair. What's more, I have a way out. If it doesn't work out, I will give up solving the puzzle and trigger the guaranteed death toll mechanism to clear the level - you know, although the cost is extremely high, I You can do this."

Lu Zimo looked at her and then at Qisi, without any help.

Huang Xiaofei didn't look at Lu Zimo. A blackened page appeared in his right hand. The edges were rough and uneven, and he didn't know what the raw material was.

Under Qisi's gaze, she picked up a black pen and copied the terms of the contract on the page. However, she did not rush to sign her name, but turned her inquiring eyes to Qisi. .

Two seconds later, Qiss chuckled and waved his hand to disperse the long bloody shadow: "You are right. Although I have the key information and the solution to the puzzle, it is difficult for me to successfully execute it with my own strength. , I really need your strength.”

Huang Xiaofei smiled, put the page on her palm, and signed three big characters with a pen: "I can promise you that in this copy, I will provide you with the maximum help within a reasonable range."< br>
The conditions for the effect of an ordinary contract are not strict, and a verbal agreement can also be effective, let alone one written on paper.

At this moment, a cold electronic sound sounded in the ears of both contracting parties:

[The contract has been signed. This contract is guaranteed by the rules of the world and cannot be violated by any existence]

Huang Xiaofei calmly folded the pages, put them in her arms, and said with a smile: "I hope we can have a happy cooperation."

Qisi’s eyebrows were curved and the corners of his mouth were raised: “I also hope that we can trust each other.”

The two people who had criticized each other not long ago just shook hands and made peace. Sun Dekuan was stunned beside him and couldn’t help but pat himself lightly. A slap.

Should I be called a veteran player? This time, I have understood Houhei Xuexue...

Under Sun Dekuan's awe-inspiring eyes, Qisi recounted what he saw during the day, including speculations on the chronological background, the tadpoles in the kitchen and The pond that Cheng Xiaoyu led the way to, and... the situation that happened in the end, which was like going back in time.

He concealed the matter of collecting some tadpoles in a sugar bowl without leaving a trace, so Sun Dekuan naturally did not have to talk too much.

Huang Xiaofei said: "The copy of the medical record I gave you is true. In addition, I also found some records pointing to the plan to go out at night to explore."

"The duty record mentioned that the hospital's The nursing staff have to take turns to patrol the corridors at night, and the person whose turn is on will hang a duty sign around their neck, which is probably the key to night operations. Sometimes in the hospital, some patients or doctors need to leave urgently at night, and they seem to find the director. Approval of an entry and exit permit..."

Under the constraints of the contract, these words are undoubtedly true.

Huang Xiaofei paused and looked at Qisi: "It's too late today. Tomorrow we can split up to explore the duty room and the dean's office - did you see any offices or other places along the way?"< br>
Qisi nodded slightly, lowered his head and flipped through the four paper copies of medical records in his hand.

Huang Xiaofei's handwriting is very sloppy, but fortunately, the wording is clear and precise, and the specific content can be seen clearly.

The medical record belonging to "Cheng An" clearly says "sickness", and the treatment method says "to be determined". It seems suspicious no matter how you look at it.

Huang Xiaofei and Lu Zimo’s symptoms were the same as they judged on the first day, and the treatment methods were surgery on the fifth day. Combined with the message that those cursed by frogs will die on the operating table, it's no wonder they're eager to seek cooperation.

Sun Dekuan also needs surgery, which is also scheduled for the fifth day.

He leaned close to Qisi, and after seeing the word "ligation" written on the medical record, he cried sadly: "I didn't say it, I didn't do it in reality, why can't I escape in the copy? ?”

This copy is clearly related to fertility. Although this development is unfortunate, it is also reasonable.

Qisi returned the medical records to Huang Xiaofei and said calmly: "If nothing else happens, we will all die on the operating table on the fifth day. We must complete the current task before the operation. This There must be other cures in the dungeon. "

"Of course, we can also give up the current mission, complete the main mission in advance, and leave the dungeon."

"Lin Chen said on the phone yesterday. There is a baby statue in the middle of the pond over there, which should be the so-called 'Holy Son'. We just need to find a way to get to them, or let them come to our side."
< br>"I guess that the two scenes of Blue Frog Hospital and Green Frog Hospital are closely related, and are even connected to each other. I just don't know where the passage is."

Basically anyone can deduce this conclusion based on the known information.

Huang Xiaofei pondered for a moment, lit a cigarette, and said quietly: "I suspect that the essence of this copy is a small ghost realm."

"You just said that after you came out of the room , the attitude of all NPCs towards you has returned to what it was a day ago. Except for the weirdness of the dungeon based on large-scale supernatural events, most of the details will be as consistent as possible and will never be so rough."

" It can only maintain a one-day cycle and cannot erase the player's memory. It is at best a small-scale whirlpool. Although it will continue to involve nearby creatures, it is not difficult to deal with as long as the crux is found. "< br>
“I even speculate that the hospital is just a virtual world built by a single person or strangely, used to satisfy certain desires, or as the foundation of a certain ritual.”

Sun Dekuan blinked his eyes twice and said "Ah": "Didn't I say that this is still 'small' and 'not difficult to deal with'? Two spaces, different tasks. Last night, I was chased and beaten by a frog and a pregnant woman ghost." Bo, this is considered simple. What are the dungeons you have encountered before? "

"That's not the case. The ghost realm is a ghost realm, the dungeon is a dungeon, and the mission is a weird game arrangement in the final analysis. It’s given to us, not to the ghost realm itself.”

Huang Xiaofei showed more patience than yesterday and shook her head slightly: “We encountered so many dangers last night, but we didn’t suffer any substantial harm. Do you think this ghost realm doesn’t want to kill us?”

It turns out that there is another reason... It can only be said that Huang Xiaofei is indeed an old player. Even if he only reveals a little bit of information, he lacks information collection channels. It is also expensive for ordinary players.

Qisi sat aside and listened casually, with an attitude that he had known for a long time. At the same time, he took the time to store the information that could not be seen in the forum into the palace of thinking.

No wonder he felt that this copy was inconsistent in many details.

Now it seems that his premonition is quite different. The game system and the dungeon itself are not one and the same. Instead, the players are sent to this dungeon world as pawns by a strange game to explore and do some things.

The failure rate and the existence of various endless tasks are all urging players to carry out actions secretly and actively.

Sun Dekuan was also lost in thought, his eyes gradually straightened, as if he was distracted.

In the silence, Lu Zimo explained softly: "My sister guessed that this ghost realm has limited bearing capacity, and excess casualties are also a burden to it, so it will ignore us as much as possible."


Sun Dekuan scratched his head: "Doesn't that mean we won't die no matter what?"

The other three people unanimously looked at him with caring eyes for children. Huang Xiaofei held the cigarette between her fingers and blew out the smoke: "Oh, what determines our life and death is a weird game from beginning to end."

"Dingling bell... Ding-ring-ring..."

The ringing of the old-fashioned telephone rang suddenly, piercing the gloomy and depressing air.

Qisi stood up and walked to the table in the corner and picked up the phone.

……

Green Frog Hospital, staff dormitory.

Lin Chen sat by the landline and described as clearly as possible into the microphone: "Brother Cheng, we asked some people indirectly this morning. Those farmed tadpoles seem to be used for contraception. Many hospitals They all buy from us.”

“The idea of ​​tadpoles as a contraceptive is not openly advocated, it is said to be feudal superstition, but it seems to be very effective, so most hospitals will secretly transport tadpoles... This may sound outrageous, but that’s how this copy is set up..."

"Also, some of our nurses here are talking about it, saying that the recent operations have not gone well, and they have basically died of massive bleeding..."

Just after breakfast in the morning, the three of them divided up. On both sides, Yu Kun and Lin Chen were responsible for exploring the entire hospital and inquiring about news; the female teacher shouldered the task of raising frogs alone and guarding the hospital's pond.

One of Lin Chen and Yu Kun was responsible for questioning, and the other was responsible for being the door god to scare NPCs. They cooperated quite well and were very efficient. They quickly figured out everything they could find out.

They returned to the pond, but inexplicably triggered the main mission of [Looking for the Virgin Statue], and were inexplicably teleported back to the staff dormitory.

Yu Kun judged that the statue of the Virgin was at the Blue Frog Hospital. The reason why he so happily asked Lin Chen to call and report the discovery was because he wanted to test the tone of Qisi and others.

At this moment, the female teacher huddled in the corner of the bed, covering her head with the quilt, and did not listen to what was going on outside the window. Yu Kun was playing with the shiny white dagger, sitting on the table and staring at Lin Chen eagerly.

Qisi asked: "How is the progress of your mission? I found a bucket of tadpoles here, and I should be able to find a way to make the NPC eat more."

Lin Chen felt the concern in his words and swallowed: "Our side shows that 280 tadpoles have been eaten, and there are still 720 tadpoles short of the mission goal..."

"By the way, those tadpoles may cause some bad situations. The NPC here is very secretive about the tadpoles, and also asked us to be careful not to eat tadpoles by mistake, as if there are parasites..."

On the phone, Qisi's voice was gentle and calm: "Thank you for your hard work, we also got some information that we don't know whether it is true or false. It is said that people who hurt frogs will be cursed by frogs. Many patients have died from the curse, and the curse One of the triggering conditions is eating tadpoles.”

"These days, a large number of patients are bleeding to death on the operating table. It cannot be ruled out that it is due to the curse of the frog. We learned that almost all the patients either ate tadpoles or drank tadpole soup."

Speaking of which, The young man pretended to smile relaxedly: "Of course, I'm curious who will be cursed in the end if you feed the frogs and eat the tadpoles."

The boss still loves to joke so much... Lin Chen said with some nostalgia. He curved his lips, not forgetting the business: "Brother Cheng, a new main mission has been triggered here, which is [Looking for the Statue of the Virgin]."

"As I mentioned before, the pond on our side The baby stone statue in the center should be the Son. I guess next, we need to find a way to combine the statues of the Virgin and the Son."

Qisi said with a smile: "What a coincidence. Bian’s newly refreshed main quest happens to be [Looking for the Statue of the Holy Son]. It seems that we have to find a way to meet with the statue.”

"Meet?"

Lin Chen followed Yu Kun to explore the entire hospital and had already discovered that the hospital was completely sealed and there was no way to the outside world.

Players from Green Frog Hospital and Blue Frog Hospital could not meet each other. He realized this at the time and was disappointed for a while.

But now listening to Qisi’s words, it seems possible to meet?

Lin Chen reviewed the clues from the beginning, but still couldn't think of a way to leave the hospital. But he believed from the bottom of his heart that Ziss must have discovered the key to breaking the situation.

After all, that was Ziss who led his TE to clear the copy of "Rose Manor"...

"Well, from the perspective of the main mission, this is the easiest solution." Ziss said, "We found that, The essence of this copy is a small ghost realm, which is weaker than "Rose Manor", so it can only be time-cycled in units of one day."

"This kind of ghost realm is not difficult to deal with, as long as it can be found. The crux can be easily solved. It is not necessarily impossible for the two spaces to overlap and connect."

Qisi repeated the information he just learned from Huang Xiaofei, lowered his eyes and sighed: "Remember, it is up to us. Life and death have always been a weird game."

Lin Chen felt a little calmer after listening to the calm attitude on the other side of the phone.

He seemed to understand and wrote down the information, and asked: "Brother Cheng, where do the crux of this kind of small ghost realm usually lie?"

Qisi said lightly: "I'm not sure, yet. More clues are needed to verify, but I feel it may be related to the pond.”

“We also got a clue, [Blue Frog Hospital raises blue frogs, Green Frog Hospital raises green frogs], but it’s true. "There are two kinds of frogs in every hospital."

"This just proves that there is a hidden passage in the hospital that is difficult for humans to find, but frogs can easily pass through."

Lin Chenxiao. He nodded slightly, already having a specific idea of ​​what to do next in his mind: "Yeah! Brother Cheng, I'll go to the pond tomorrow to have a look!"

Even he himself didn't notice that the anxiety that was originally overflowing in his heart disappeared after this phone call.

It seems that as long as Qisi is here, everything will get better, and even the most difficult puzzles can be solved...

"Pay attention to safety, no matter what happens, life comes first " Qisi's voice did not fluctuate, but it had a soothing power, "We will try to explore more places tomorrow and try to operate at night to explore the details of this ghostland..."
< br>"Dong dong dong!" The door of the dormitory was suddenly knocked violently.

Then, a sharp female voice rang out: "You devils! Give me back my child!"

"My child, child..."

This voice has its own echo, as if it comes from countless mouths and merges into one.

The phone in my hand stopped at some point, leaving only a series of "beep" busy signals.

Lin Chen put the microphone away with trembling hands and looked in the direction of the sound.

Beside the closed door, dark red blood poured into the room from the crack in the door, and spread in all directions at an unreasonable speed...
